-Caveat Lector- http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,3-522510,00.html World News December 23, 2002 An Iraqi Christian boy watches US doctors as they attend an Advent service at Baghdad's Evangelical Church yesterday UN chief issues secret orders for war in Iraq From James Bone in New York Agencies told to prepare for civil unrest and 900,000 refugees THE United Nations is making secret contingency plans for a war that would halt all Iraqi oil production, seriously degrade the countrys electricity system, provoke civil unrest and create 900,000 refugees, The Times has learnt. Internal UN documents predict that the worst fighting will be in the three central governorates around Baghdad, with the Kurdish-controlled north remaining largely free of conflict. But it will take a month after war breaks out before the predominantly Shia south is calm enough for UN humanitarian workers to work there. Although formally expressing the hope that war can be averted, UN relief agencies are already positioning emergency supplies and updating evacuation procedures for the hundreds of international staff now inside Iraq. The UN expects that there will be full compliance by Iraq . . . and that, consequently, there will be no new humanitarian crisis, one document says. Nevertheless, UN agencies must ensure that they are adequately prepared for the full range of possible scenarios. Kofi Annan, the UN Secretary-General, is trying to keep the preparations secret for fear of signalling to Iraq that weapons inspections are futile and a US-led attack is inevitable. But he ordered staff to begin contingency planning last month after the Security Council set tough terms for resumed inspections in Iraq. His Canadian deputy, Louise Fréchette, is chairing regular meetings of officials to prepare for a possible humanitarian crisis. Confidential UN planning papers paint a grim picture of the effects of an attack against Iraq: they predict that production of oil will cease, the port of Umm Qasr on the Gulf would be shut down, and the bombing of bridges would cripple the railway network and make road travel difficult between the east and west of the country. The electricity grid would be seriously disrupted, with collateral damage to water and sewage systems. Government stocks of commodities such as grain would also be hit. Of the 900,000 predicted refugees, the UN estimates that about 100,000 would need immediate help. It all seems perfectly reasonable, but when it actually happens, it will be different, one person who reviewed the papers said. It always is. At an unpublicised meeting in Geneva on December 13, the UN appealed to more than ten donor nations, including Britain, to provide $37 million (£23 million) to fund preparations for a crisis. The Rome-based World Food Programme said that it had started to put in place sufficient food for 900,000 people for a month. The UN High Commissioner for Refugees has a stockpile of supplies for 250,000 people ready to move at 72 hours notice, but has only enough tents and blankets for 100,000 people. It could take 12 weeks and $60 million to deliver enough supplies. The UN Childrens Fund, which has a warehouse in Denmark, has started moving supplies to Iraq and four neighbouring countries for 550,000 people inside Iraq and another 160,000 expected to spill into neighbouring states. A major source of tension in the planning is the relationship between the emergency operation and the large UN oil-for-food programme that has been overseeing relief supplies inside Iraq for the past seven years. The UN estimates that 16 million Iraqis, or 60 per cent of the population, are highly dependent on the monthly food basket provided under the programme.

To see this story with its related links on the Guardian Unlimited site, go to http://www.guardian.co.uk Iraq hits back with CIA offer US agents invited to search for weapons Ewen MacAskill, Suzanne Goldenberg in Washington and Richard Norton-Taylor Sunday December 22 2002 The Observer Baghdad fought back in the highly charged propaganda battle with the US and Britain yesterday by inviting its arch-enemy, the CIA, to enter Iraq and track down the country's elusive weapons of mass destruction. The Iraqi offer of unhindered access to US intelligence agents came after intensive pressure from Washington that made war early in the new year appear almost inevitable. After four days of diplomatic pounding, Iraq hit back yesterday, accusing the Bush administration of rehashing old lies. We have told the world we are not producing these kind of weapons, but it seems that the world is drugged, absent or in a weak position, President Saddam Hussein said. At a press conference in Baghdad yesterday, General Amir al-Sadi, scientific adviser to the president, issued a challenge to the US and British intelligence to offer up hard evidence that Iraq has any biological, chemical or nuclear weapons. We do not even have any objections if the CIA sent somebody with the inspectors to show them the suspected sites, Gen Sadi said. This marks a major turnaround. Until yesterday, Iraq had objected to the possibility of US or other Western spies infiltrating the UN weapons teams. Baghdad said, rightly, that the inspections team that left Iraq in 1998 had been infiltrated by intelligence agents and, in the intervening four years, repeatedly cited this as a reason why it objected to the return of the UN inspectors. A CIA spokesman said yesterday that he did not want to comment on Baghdad's offer. Both the US and Britain claim, against Iraqi denials, that they have evidence that Iraq has continued to develop weapons of mass destruction. The UN chief weapons inspector, Hans Blix, said at the end of last week that if the US and Britain had such evidence, they should hand it over. US officials said at the weekend that they have been handing over intelligence and will provide more specific information to the inspectors over the next fortnight. The Foreign Office made a similar promise yesterday: The weapons inspectors will get all the help they need to carry out their job in Iraq. But it emerged that British intelligence is reluctant to hand over everything it claims to have, insisting there is a danger that sources could be compromised. British government officials have already privately admitted that they do not have any killer evidence about weapons of mass destruction. If they had, they would have already passed it to the inspectors. Babil, the Iraqi government newspaper run by president Saddam's son, Uday, said in a front-page editorial yesterday: Everybody knows that if they had concrete information, they would have put it on television all around the world before giving it to the inspection teams. Gen Sadi accused the US and Britain of rushing to judge Iraq's weapons programmes. He claimed that objections raised by the US secretary of state, Colin Powell, and the foreign secretary, Jack Straw, to Iraq's declaration on weapons of mass destruction, were a rehash of old information that had already been dealt with. But US officials said yesterday the accusation made by Washington last week that Iraq was in material breach of a UN resolution on disarmament had come from specific information it has obtained and not from the declaration. This new information, they said, was based on satellite pictures that showed construction at sites that had previously been bombed by US-led forces. They also claimed to have fresh information based on records of suspicious dual-use material - that which has both a civilian and military function - procured by Iraq as part of a UN deal to relieve the suffering of Iraqis from sanctions. British military chiefs are drawing up detailed plans in which thousands of Royal Marines would take part in a huge amphibious assault to seize the Iraqi port of Basra to control key strategic areas in south of the country. The Ministry of Defence confirmed yesterday that HMS Ocean, Britain's biggest helicopter and marine commando carrier, will be available to join a flotilla heading towards the Gulf next month after a major refit.

[CTRL] Boston Globe Online / Nation | World / Frustrated veterans accuse Bush of breaking promise
-Caveat Lector- http://www.boston.com/dailyglobe2/356/nation/Frustrated_veterans_accuse_Bush_of_brea king_promise+.shtml THIS STORY HAS BEEN FORMATTED FOR EASY PRINTING Frustrated veterans accuse Bush of breaking promise By Wayne Washington, Globe Staff, 12/22/2002 WASHINGTON - The leaders of America's most prominent veterans organizations say that President Bush is failing to honor past commitments to military men and women even as he prepares to send a new generation of soldiers and sailors into combat. The administration's support for rescinding lifetime health benefits for World War II and Korean War veterans and continuing problems at veterans hospitals stand as proof, veteran leaders say, that America is more than willing to lean on its soldiers during times of war but tolerates them serving as political props in peacetime. Coming after President Clinton, who avoided service in Vietnam and had a strained relationship with the military, veterans leaders say they had high expectations for Bush, who served in the National Guard and whose father was a fighter pilot during World War Two. ''I'm terribly frustrated and extremely angry,'' said retired Air Force Colonel George ''Bud'' Day, a Republican who won the Medal of Honor and was a prisoner of war in North Vietnam with Senator John McCain of Arizona. Day said Bush is violating his oft-repeated campaign pledge to veterans: ''A promise made is a promise kept.'' ''Obviously, he didn't know what that meant or he's too preoccupied to see that his word is kept,'' Day said. Many veterans are particularly galled that the Bush administration has not backed away from a 1995 decision to rescind a promise of free lifetime health care benefits for soldiers, who from 1941 to 1956 had been told that if they signed up and served 20 years they and their dependents would get free care. The government stopped honoring that pledge in 1995, and many veterans 65 and older have been forced to pay for benefits through Medicare, which now costs about $60 a month and pays for 80 percent of medical care after a $100 deductible has been paid. Day has represented a group of veterans hoping to get the free health care restored, but the US Court of Appeals in Washington ruled last month that the recruiters who promised the free care did not have the standing to do so. Officials from Disabled American Veterans, the American Legion, and the Veterans of Foreign Wars protested the decision. The issue could become a factor in the 2004 presidential race because Day said he will ask the Supreme Court to hear the case. Because of the court's schedule, the case might not be heard until late 2003 or early 2004 - if at all. The Justice Department refused to make the attorneys handling the case available for an interview, and Justice spokesman Charles Miller declined to comment. Deputy White House spokesman Scott McClellan would not respond to criticism of the Bush administration's record on veterans benefits or explain why the administration has supported the 1995 decision. ''President Bush has had a chance to rectify this, and he hasn't done it,'' said Ronald F. Conley, national commander of the American Legion. ''Before we spend one dime rebuilding Afghanistan and rebuilding Iraq after we bomb it to smithereens, we ought to take care of our veterans.'' Massachusetts Senator John F. Kerry, a decorated Vietnam War veteran who is considering a White House run in 2004, questioned the 1995 decision, the current administration's defense of it, and the November ruling. ''It is extraordinary to me that you give your entire career in defense of this country and then have to go to court to make the government keep their promise,'' Kerry said. ''What's the message we're sending to our troops around the world today and those prepared to fight in Iraq? The message seems to be, `Do your duty to country but your country won't fulfill its duty to you when you return home.''' Hoping to get the president to disavow the 1995 decision on veterans health care, Day said he used a Medal of Honor reception in June to ask Bush about it personally. ''I said to him, `Mr. President, I'm Colonel Bud Day. You know your campaign [promise], a promise made is a promise kept, is being broken.' His eyes just glazed over,'' Day said. ''He really had no idea what I was talking about.'' With his wife fuming at her husband's directness with the president, Day said he explained the circumstances of the case. Lawyers from the current Justice Department have defended the '95 decision in court, so Day was hoping Bush would withdraw support for the case. Instead, Day said the president told him, ''`Colonel, you really need to talk to [Veterans Affairs Secretary Anthony] Principi.''' After pushing more with the VA, Day said he ''realized this was a dry hole.'' Veterans have experienced such disappointment before. Rhetorical support for veterans has been a staple of political
Re: [CTRL] Rocking and Rolling Miss Liberty
-Caveat Lector- Rock and Roll and the Statue of LibertyThat all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.I think our vision of liberty is reinforced by shared symbols and experiences. Perhaps the strongest image of them all is the one that for millions of Americans was their first glimpse of America -- that Statue of Liberty. President Reagan. In 1886, President Grover Cleveland dedicated the statue entitled Liberty Enlightening the World.Thomas Jefferson once noted that the only firm basis of a nation's liberties is the Conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are . . . the gift of God.Standing at the entrance to New York harbor is Liberty Enlightening the World a 151 foot 1 inch statue of a woman holding a book and a torch. The Statue of Liberty is temporarily closed due to possible terrorist attacks.The Statue of Liberty National Monument officially celebrated her 100th birthday on October 28, 1986. The people of France gave the Statue to the people of the United States over one hundred years ago in recognition of the friendship established during the American Revolution. Over the years, the Statue of Liberty has grown to include freedom and democracy as well as this international friendship.Sculptor Frederic Auguste Bartholdi was commissioned to design a sculpture with the year 1876 in mind for completion, to commemorate the centennial of the American Declaration of Independence. The Statue was a joint effort between America and France and it was agreed upon that the American people were to build the pedestal, and the French people were responsible for the Statue and its assembly here in the United States. However, lack of funds was a problem on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.Happiness was a key word within the Order of the Illuminati, the Order of Enlightenment. The Order of the Illuminati was formed on May 1st 1774 and two full years before the official date of May 1st 1776, (and two full years is the period spent by the baby Jesus Christ in Egypt). So to Rock and Roll the May 1st 1774 is day 120 /365.242198 days + 1774 is 1774.32854 and to Rock is x Pi at 5574.217535 and to Roll is 1774.32854 /Pi is 564.78631 and all three added together is 7913.33239, the reference for the Rocking and Rolling of the Order of the Illuminati. And to Rock and Roll the American Independence Day July 4th 1776, reveals the reference 7923.0337. Next to take the reference number for the Burning Torch the Lamp of Enlightenment the Eye of Horus at 1260 and x 0.75 and /Pi 4 times is 9.70135323.And add to the Lamp of Enlightenment at 9.70135323 the Order of the Enlightenment at 7913.33239 it is 7923.03374, the Rock and Rolled date of July 4th 1776 the date of the American Independence. So to the two measurements of the Statue of Liberty, the pedestal height at 154 feet, or 1,848 inches, and the height of the figure at 151 feet 1 inch at 1813 inches and multiplied by the pedestal at 1813 inches and squared twice is 1.26008280e+26, a reasonable 1260 reference number for the Liberty Enlightening the World.So thanks to the French supplying the statue and the Americans the pedestal the once main gateway into the United States is not the symbol of Freedom but the symbol of something else.A New Pearl Harbor Ring of Fire February 1st 2003?The Statue of Liberty is written into the period from September 11th 2001 to February 1st 2003 in that September 11th is day 253 of the year and divided by 365.242198 days + 2001 is 2001.69269 whereas February 1st 2003 is 2003.084875 a difference of 1.3921851 years, x 365.242198 days is 508.484776 days x 24 hours /40 is 305.0908 hours, and as feet 305 feet 1.090 inches, the height of the Statue of Liberty.So to wait to see if anything happens on February 1st 2003. But what ever happens or happens not, it seems as if someone, within the the Founding Fathers was of the Order of the Illuminati, rather like the Skull and Bones.

To see this story with its related links on the Guardian Unlimited site, go to http://www.guardian.co.uk Banned Farrakhan reaches UK audience via satellite Vikram Dodd Sunday December 22 2002 The Observer The controversial American black leader Louis Farrakhan yesterday tried to undermine the government's ban on him entering Britain by speaking live by satellite to a 1,700-strong audience in London. Mr Farrakhan, banned for 17 years by successive home secretaries, used his first live address to Britain to lambast his exclusion. The Nation of Islam leader said Britain's colonial history was satanic, and that the government had banned him because it feared his presence would set black people free from white oppression. The audience, overwhelmingly black and young, watched the transmission beamed from a mosque in Phoenix, Arizona, on a giant screen at the Apollo Theatre in Hammersmith. Unfortunately for Mr Farrakhan, who forbids his followers from drinking, the theatre is sponsored by the Carling lager. As he appeared on the screen the audience gave him a standing ovation. Mr Farrakhan, at times quoting from the Koran and Bible, compared himself to a messenger carrying particular truths, feared by Britain, that will free the black man and free white people from the sick mentality of white supremacy. As a leading colonial power and slave trader, Britain had had a pervasive influence on black society as lingering as the smell of a skunk: They are here in the way we think, they are here in the way we act, so we need a complete washing. You have to wash from having an intercourse with Satan. Mr Farrakhan is accused of being anti-semitic and is banned from Britain because ministers fear his presence would lead to disorder. In May the court of appeal reinstated the ban on Mr Farrakhan entering the UK which a lower court had overturned. Yesterday he countered that the Nation of Islam, which has several thousand UK followers, was peaceful. You can't show one person that those who follow me have harmed, he said. We have not plucked a nail or one strand of hair from one white person, a Jewish person, or from our own brothers. Mr Farrakhan, 69, said yesterday's live transmission gave Britons the chance to make up their own minds. Some of those in his audience yesterday, who paid up to #163;25 for the privilege, said they wanted to hear the man alleged by some to be a preacher of hate for themselves. Christine Muhammad, 32, a bank cashier from London said: It was inspiring to hear him live, and enlightening. Chris Obi, 34, an actor from London, said: The idea that he is banned in an age of free expression and free speech is wrong. There's a white fear of black empowerment. Mr Farrakhan said there were strong similarities between the American and British black experience: The British system, like the American system, is designed to create in us a subject mentality. Supporters of Mr Farrakhan said they hoped yesterday's event would show that his message preached black empowerment, not hate, and that its effect on supporters was to inspire them to help themselves, not provoke disorder.

[CTRL] ArabNews: Silence about Israels nuclear weapons
-Caveat Lector- http://www.arabnews.com/Article.asp?ID=21370 Arab News SAUDI ARABIA'S FIRST ENGLISH LANGUAGE DAILY Silence about Israels nuclear weapons By Hassan Tahsin Published on 23 December 2002 International politics has a number of contradictions. At present, we see the United States leading the world against Iran, Iraq and North Korea because they allegedly possess weapons of mass destruction. We see the United States at the same time approving the idea of Israel building a new nuclear reactor. The new reactor will chemically process uranium and will obviously increase the size of the Israeli arsenal. The world is in general agreement with the United States about the necessity of eliminating weapons of mass destruction. The existence of these weapons which includes nuclear warhead threatens the entire world. It is not enough to disarm the so-called axis of evil. All weapons of mass destruction must be eliminated, including those of the superpower permanent members of the UN Security Council. The idea of disarming is a political and military one developed in the 20th century. Its main goal was to reduce arms, step by step, until they reached a level at which arms were eliminated. This is a good theory but it is far from practical reality. With the establishment of the United Nations after World War II, it was stipulated that the Security Council had the task of preparing plans and programs aimed at regulating armaments and their reduction in accordance with certain steps. If we look at Israel and its weapons of mass destruction, we join many countries and governments which have wondered why Israel is always an exception to rules that are scrupulously applied to other countries. It is certain today that Israel possesses between 100 and 200 nuclear and hydrogen warheads of all sizes. This is confirmed by published American satellite pictures and scientific reports. These same reports also indicate that Israel is about to produce a neutron bomb. Israel also has nuclear bombs which are designed for use from airplanes. They can be used in battle without fears of side effects. Israel also has spy satellites which can identify targets on the ground very easily. In cooperation with the former racist government in South Africa, Israel conducted nuclear tests in 1979 in the South Pacific. Further information about Israeli weapons is not available though it is known that some were used for the attempted assassination in Jordan of Khalid Meshaal, the Hamas member. Closing the worlds eyes to Israels nuclear arsenal and weapons of mass destruction can only lead to suspicion and rejection. Since Israel was the first country in the region to possess these weapons, it should be the first to get rid of them. This is especially true in light of the fact that Arab countries have agreed to make the region empty of weapons of mass destruction, including nuclear ones. The United States is the present leader and it has embarked on a campaign to eliminate weapons of mass destruction around the world. If this is carried out, then the United States will have done something that will be remembered in history and which will also increase its political importance. In the future, the United States will need no help in collecting an international coalition because the whole world will support its aims. People around the world dream of peace and believe in it, and they believe that they can live in peace together without any war. Unfortunately, this is not consistent with the ambitions of politicians. Arab News Opinion 23 December 2002 Copyright © 2002 ArabNews All Rights Reserved.

-Caveat Lector- http://www.totallyjewish.com/news/stories/?disp_type=0disp_story=4SaOxZ Insult To Star Of David by Richard Ferrer - Jan 19 New Statesman magazine has admitted its decision to publish a front-page cover featuring a gold Magen David above the slogan A Kosher Conspiracy? may have been misguided. The illustration, which appeared in last weeks edition of the current affairs magazine, showed the Jewish symbol on top of a Union Jack, while three damning reports inside attacked Israel and Jewish organisations in the UK. The first article, by Dennis Sewell, claimed a Zionist lobby is secretly peddling the big lies of Israeli propaganda to the media, while the following page carried a piece by author John Pilger, accusing Tony Blair of cronyism in his shameless appointment of Lord Michael Levy as his special envoy to the Middle East. The article also accused the prime minister of unquestioning backing of Israeli military policy. Strike three came in the shape of a sympathetic centre spread about what drives Palestinian women to become suicide bombers. Editor Peter Wilby conceded that this coordinated coverage upset some readers, but insisted it was not his intention to offend. He said: Covers and symbols are difficult, tricky things. Maybe we didnt think carefully enough about this particular one. The Star of David, along with the Union Jack, are two very clearly recognisable symbols. When people see it they have a clear idea of whats going on. But I certainly wouldnt wish to give the idea that were anti-Semitic, nor indeed that Im anti-Zionist. This was a serious piece. Were not anti-Zionist. We ask the question, is there a conspiracy? Then we answer it, saying no, not much of one. Sewells contentious cover story takes a sideways swipe at organisations at the heart of Anglo-Jewish life, such as the Board Of Deputies, Zionist Federation (ZF) and the Britain Israel Communications and Research Centre (Bicom), which is charged with spinning Israels case to the media. Sewell wrote: That there is a Zionist lobby and that it is rich, potent and effective goes largely unquestioned on the left. Big Jewry, like big tobacco, is seen as one of lifes givens. According to this view, Israel has the British media well sewn up. Sewell goes on to attack Israeli Embassy press attaché David Schneeweiss, who can be on the phone to every news editor at once, while simultaneously schmoozing their proprietors. The article concludes that while such a lobby exists, one is struck not by their cohesion so much as their fragmentation. Few are much more than a two-men-and-a-dog operation located above a shop. The truth is the Zionist lobby does exist, but is a clueless bunch. Jewish leaders have been quick to hit back. ZF president Eric Moonman, who is accused of coordinating a vituperative letter and email writing campaign aimed at critics of Israeli policy, charges the New Statesman with carrying out a hatchet job. He said: There is no balance in any of the articles and they demean British Jewry. I am personally mentioned as being responsible for the ZFs media response group and I have always acknowledged that openly. There is nothing sinister in responding to the medias attacks on an ethnic or religious group. The prejudice of the magazine is clearly to be found in this co- ordinated approach, which I feel is unforgivable. As someone who has worked for many years in both newspapers and radio, I can only say I have never worked for an editor or station manager who would have given this approach the OK. The Boards public affairs director Fiona Macaulay, who was named in Sewells piece, said: The authors disappointment at his inability to prove the existence of a world Jewish conspiracy is almost tangible. One can only assume his distress was responsible for the fact that the article was poorly constructed, confusing and misleading. As the elected representative body of British Jewry, the Board will continue to express the communitys overwhelming sense of solidarity with the State of Israel and its people. A spokesman for Bicom added: Articles of this nature are common and part of the rough and tumble of the media game. Wilby, the New Statesmans editor, said he received as many complaints from the Jewish community as from Muslims last month when his magazine ran the front-page headline, The Koran Con Trick. He said: We used an image of the Koran, which is not as wildly emotive as the Star of David. In terms of protest from both communities its probably neck and neck at the moment. Criticism has also come from outside the community. In its leader last Friday, The Sun labelled the New Statesman racially insensitive, and hailed Israel as a brave, democratic nation surrounded by forces intent on its entire destruction. Israels enemies are enemies of Britain. To pretend otherwise is dangerous folly. Elsewhere, Jewish readers

-Caveat Lector- http://www.totallyjewish.com/news/stories/?disp_type=0disp_story=FPa4uh Israel's Iran Threat by Stuart Brodkin - Jan 16 Dan Meridor, Israel's minister without portfolio, issued a stern warning that Iran could be the new threat to his country when he addressed the Zionist Federation's annual dinner in London last weekend. He said: Iran is a country that we should look at very carefully. They are involved in terror, they have built a base for Hizbollah and they are also financing Islamic Jihad. Iran also sold the Palestinians a lot of weapons recently and is attempting to have her own nuclear capability. It may only be between five and seven years before Iran has a nuclear bomb. Iran is also the only country in the world, alongside Iraq, which is committed to the destruction of Israel. Iran says this not in secret, but openly. We must not overlook the dangers from the east in the shape of Iran and Iraq. Meridor, a former tank commander in the Six-Day War, said he felt Palestinian Authority chairman Yasser Arafat's powers were being eroded. He is saying things now that he doesn't mean for a minute, said Meridor. He added that he felt that Arafat had lowered the level of terror in recent weeks but hadn't gone all the way in stopping the violence. Meridor said that the only thing that Arafat understood was pressure and that was why it was important for the Americans, in particular, to keep the pressure on the PA leader. He said: Only heavy pressure works with Arafat. He knows he cannot win a war with Israel. American pressure is vital. We have to make Arafat understand that the use of violence will not help him. Meridor added that Israel's greatest achievement in the last 10 years was not Oslo but the fact that there were 20 per cent more Jews living in Israel. He said: In 10 years we have brought in a million more Jews. Has any other nation done such a thing in such a short time? This is our real achievement.

-Caveat Lector- URL: http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2002/12/22/1040510964488.html Print this article | Close this window Australians join exodus from tense Venezuela December 23 2002 Fearing an outbreak of violence over dwindling petrol supplies in strike-hit Venezuela, Britain has evacuated non-essential embassy staff and Australian nationals have been warned to leave as an opposition shutdown cripples the nation's oil industry. The United States, Canada and Germany have already pulled out embassy staff. Dependents of Australian embassy staff have been authorised to leave as Venezuela's opposition presses on with the 20-day-old strike to force the leftist President, Hugo Chavez, to resign and call elections in the world's fifth-biggest oil exporting nation. Frustrations are growing three weeks into the strike, with efforts by international mediators failing to break the stalemate over Mr Chavez's rule. Hundreds of cars, buses and trucks lined up outside service stations over the weekend as drivers hunted for increasingly scarce petrol supplies. Panicky shoppers packed supermarkets to stock up on food and other basic supplies. Huge political protests, rallies and street clashes have kept tensions in Venezuela running high since April, when Mr Chavez survived a brief coup by rebel military officers. More than 60 people died in the uprising. But the strike has further stoked fears of turmoil. Opposition leaders, including political parties, unions and dissident executives at PDVSA, the state oil company, have vowed to maintain the shutdown until Mr Chavez agrees to an early vote. But the President, a former paratrooper, says the constitution allows for a referendum on his rule only in August. With political negotiations at a stalemate, the strike has essentially become a gruelling war of attrition over the oil industry, which accounts for half of government revenues. Mr Chavez has sent in troops to control petrol plants, refineries and oil tankers. But strikers have dismissed his efforts and ignored a temporary Supreme Court ruling ordering them back to work.

[CTRL] Proof's in the Putin
-Caveat Lector- URL: http://www.canoe.ca/Columnists/margolis_dec22.html December 22, 2002 Details of U.S. victory are a little premature By ERIC MARGOLIS -- Contributing Foreign Editor On the frigid night of Dec. 24, 1979, Soviet airborne forces seized Kabul airport. Elite Alpha Group commandos sped to the presidential palace, burst into the bedroom of Afghan President Hafizullah Amin and gunned him down. Columns of Soviet armour crossed the border and raced south toward Kabul. It took Soviet forces only a few days to occupy Afghanistan. They installed a puppet ruler, Babrak Karmal. Moscow proclaimed it had invaded Afghanistan to liberate it from feudalism and Islamic extremism and nests of terrorists and bandits. Soviet propaganda churned out films of Red Army soldiers playing with children, building schools, dispensing medical care. Afghan women were to be liberated from the veil and other backward Islamic customs. The Soviet Union and its local communist allies would bring Afghanistan into the 20th century. Two years later, Afghans had risen against their Soviet liberators and were waging a low- intensity guerrilla war. Unable to control the countryside, Moscow poured more troops into Afghanistan. The Soviet- run Afghan Army had poor morale and less fighting zeal. The KGB- run Afghan secret police, KhAD, jailed and savagely tortured tens of thousands of Islamic terrorists, then called freedom fighters in the West. Fast forward to December, 2002, and a disturbing sense of deja vu. A new foreign army has easily occupied Afghanistan, overthrown the feudal Taliban government and installed a puppet regime in Kabul. Western media churn out the same rosy, agitprop stories the Soviets did about liberating Afghanistan, freeing women, educating children. The only real difference is that kids in today's TV clips are waving American instead of Soviet flags. The invaders have changed; the propaganda remains the same. America's invasion of Afghanistan in October, 2001, was billed as an epic military victory and the model of future imperial expeditions to pacify Third World malefactors. Since then, news about this war-ravaged land has grown scarce. America's limited attention has turned elsewhere. Afghanistan in chaos In fact, America's Afghan adventure has gotten off to as poor a start as that of the Soviet Union. The U.S.-installed ruler of Kabul, veteran CIA asset Hamid Karzai, must be protected from his own people by up to 200 U.S. bodyguards. Much of Afghanistan is in chaos, fought over by feuding warlords and drug barons. There are almost daily attacks on U.S. occupation forces. My old mujahedin sources say U.S. casualties and equipment losses in Afghanistan are far higher than Washington is reporting - and are rising. American troops are operating from the old Soviet bases at Bagram and Shindand, retaliating, like the Soviets, against mujahedin attacks on U.S. forces by heavily bombing nearby villages. The CIA is trying to assassinate Afghan nationalist leaders opposed to the Karzai regime in Kabul, in particular my old acquaintance Gulbadin Hekmatyar. North of the Hindu Kush mountains, America's Afghan ally, the Tajik- Uzbek Northern Alliance, has long been a proxy of the Russians. The chief of the Russian general staff and head of intelligence directed the Alliance in its final attack on the Taliban last fall. Russia then supplied Alliance forces with $100 million in arms, and is providing $85 million worth of helicopters, tanks, artillery and spare parts, as well as military advisors and technicians. Russia now dominates much of northern Afghanistan. The Taliban, according to the United Nations drug agency, had almost shut down opium- morphine-heroin production. America's ally, the Northern Alliance, has revived the illicit trade. Since the U.S. overthrew the Taliban, opium cultivation has soared from 185 tons a year to 2,700. The Northern Alliance, which dominates the Kabul regime, finances its arms- buying and field operations with drug money. President George Bush's war on drugs collided with his war on terrorism - and lost. The U.S. is now, in effect, colluding in the heroin trade. Anti-American Afghan forces - the Taliban, al-Qaida, and others - have regrouped and are mounting ever larger attacks on U.S. troops and, reports the UN, even reopening training camps. Taliban mujahedin are using the same sophisticated early alert system they developed to monitor Soviet forces in the 1980s to warn of American search-and- destroy missions before they leave base. As a result, U.S. troops keep chasing shadows. Canadians fared no better. In the sole major battle since the Taliban's overthrow, Operation Anaconda, U.S. forces were bested by veteran Afghan mujahedin, losing two helicopters. The ongoing cost of Afghan operations is a closely guarded secret. Earlier this year, the cost of stationing 8,000 American troops, backed by warplanes and naval units, was

[CTRL] Holocaust Industry and Zionism : SF Indymedia
-Caveat Lector- http://sf.indymedia.org/print.php?id=1552888 San Francisco Bay Area Independent Media Center Original article is at http://sf.indymedia.org/news/2002/12/1552888.php. Print comments. The following post has status hidden: Holocaust Industry and Zionism by Professor Finklestein Saturday December 21, 2002 at 02:18 AM Professor Finklestein discusses the Zionist attempt to use the Holocaust for their nefarious purposes. he Holocaust Shakedown by Professor Finklestein Imagine that a robber walks into a bank, points a pistol at a teller, hands her a bag, and demands that she put all the money from her cash drawer in it. At first she protests, but then, after he threatens to shoot, she fills the robber's bag with cash. And then imagine that, as the robber walks out of the bank with his bag of loot, the bank guard opens the door for him, smiles at him, offers to hail a cab for him, and tells him to come again soon. After that it's not difficult to imagine that he probably will. That's about the way it's been with the Zionists recently. Two years ago they put a gun to the head of the Swiss people collectively and demanded billions of dollars in reparations for Swiss bank accounts they claimed had been owned by Zionists who disappeared during the Second World War. The Swiss initially protested that unclaimed Zionist bank accounts from the 1930s and 1940s amounted at most to a few million dollars, not to billions, and besides the war ended more than 50 years ago and claims should have been filed long ago. The Zionists threatened to shoot, figuratively speaking, by having their bought politicians in the United States prevent Swiss banks from doing business in America. Eventually they walked away with $1.25 billion in loot, with the Swiss apologizing for not having coughed it up sooner. After that sort of success with the Swiss one could hardly expect the Zionists to give up extortion and go straight. So anyway, they were back again soon, with demands against the Volkswagen Company for having used Zionist workers during the Second World War and providing them only with room and board but not paying them union-scale wages. One might think that these Zionist workers would be grateful to Volkswagen for keeping them alive during the war, feeding them, and giving them a roof over their heads, when so many German civilians had only bombed-out ruins to live in. Well, if you thought that, you just don't understand Zionists. The Zionists told the Volkswagen Company that if it ever wanted to sell any more cars in America, it had better cough up -- soon. And the bought politicians and the media bosses in America began rattling their sabers and talking loudly about sanctions of various sorts against Volkswagen. And so, like the Swiss banks, Volkswagen coughed up the money. Then the feeding frenzy started, just as I told you it would two years ago, when I predicted that after the Zionists had cleaned out the Swiss they would go after other victims in a long list. Volkswagen wasn't the only company which had used involuntary labor during the war. The Zionists went after Daimler-Benz and BMW and Siemens. And Switzerland wasn't the only country where Zionists could claim that Uncle Abe had stashed some of his loot sixty years ago, before the war. So they sued banks in France and in Britain and began moaning and whining in the media that the banks were being insensitive to poor, deserving Holocaust survivors, who suddenly had remembered Uncle Abe's millions and needed it -- now. And then they remembered the insurance companies in Italy and Switzerland and Britain and elsewhere from whom they could claim that Uncle Abe once had had a life-insurance policy. Then they remembered that the Swedes owed them gold, and the Danes and the Norwegians. Even the Poles, whom the Zionists had ruled as Bolshevik commissars for nearly 50 years after the war, owed them, they claimed. The racket has worked the same in every case: pay us, or we will have our bought Gentile politicians pass laws making it impossible for you to continue doing business, and our people in the media will paint you as monsters who want to hang onto the profit you made when poor Uncle Abe and Aunt Sara were crammed into gas chambers, and then the gullible Gentile lemmings won't buy your products. If you give us any trouble or resist our demands we'll make an example of you, the way we did with the Swiss banks. Just pay us the few hundred million dollars we're demanding now, and we'll leave you alone. Otherwise, it'll end up costing you a lot more. And it has worked every time. Not one banker or businessman has stood up to them and flatly refused to pay. Not one president or prime minister has said to them, All right, Zionist boys! You try a boycott against my country, and we'll organize a boycott against Israel. We'll round up all the Zionists in our country and send them packing. Not one has called the Zionists' bluff.

[CTRL] David Rockefeller vs. Israel [Pro Muslims/Arabs] OIL!
Title: Message -Caveat Lector- Part of the longstanding _Project_ theory of geopolitics, is that the Vatican and Rockefellers routinely line-up against the Judeo-Masonic Anglophile cabal (NeoBritish Empire). . .the Vatican for its preference of faith based society vs "Modernism," to say nothing of their long-standing war with the Jews,and the Rockefellers for their long-standing alliance with Saudi Arabia to control the world's oil resources. We find this confirmed below in David Rockefeller's recently published _Memoirs_: Page 494: [Epilogue] ". . .It was only with time that I began to understand the connection between the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon and the failure over a period of almost 50 years to resolve the dilemma of the Middle East. President Nasser's 1969 warning to me about the "growing instability and radicalism" throughout the region resonated strongly. Despite efforts by people of good faith on all sided, this dangerous cancer has never been excised, and it now threatens the stability and prosperity of the entire world." Of course, the "only with time" part is a lie [unless old Rocky is already senile], but note that this Rockefeller statement is in direct oppostion to the Zionist propaganda barrage (now politically correct) that the the Arab-Israeli conflict is only a small part of the motivation of the terrorists! Note further that it was old David who tottered-out during the impeachmentcrisis to welcome and introduce Bill Clinton to a CFR meeting where Clinton spoke. Also recall Clinton's several visits to the Rockefeller vacation spot in Aspen. Clinton was clearly a Rockefeller tool as evidenced by his luke warm enthusiasm for the crusade against Iraq and terrorism and, most important, for his opposition to the Likud in Israel. Clinton intervened directly in Israel elections trying to defeat the Likud. ***Lloyd Miller, Research Director for A-albionic Research (POB 20273,Ferndale, MI 48220), a ruling class/conspiracy research resource for theentire political-ideological spectrum.

[CTRL] UN chief issues secret orders for war in Iraq
-Caveat Lector- http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,3-522510,00.html UN chief issues secret orders for war in Iraq From James Bone in New York Agencies told to prepare for civil unrest and 900,000 refugees THE United Nations is making secret contingency plans for a war that would halt all Iraqi oil production, seriously degrade the countrys electricity system, provoke civil unrest and create 900,000 refugees, The Times has learnt. Internal UN documents predict that the worst fighting will be in the three central governorates around Baghdad, with the Kurdish- controlled north remaining largely free of conflict. But it will take a month after war breaks out before the predominantly Shia south is calm enough for UN humanitarian workers to work there. Although formally expressing the hope that war can be averted, UN relief agencies are already positioning emergency supplies and updating evacuation procedures for the hundreds of international staff now inside Iraq. The UN expects that there will be full compliance by Iraq . . . and that, consequently, there will be no new humanitarian crisis, one document says. Nevertheless, UN agencies must ensure that they are adequately prepared for the full range of possible scenarios. Kofi Annan, the UN Secretary-General, is trying to keep the preparations secret for fear of signalling to Iraq that weapons inspections are futile and a US-led attack is inevitable. But he ordered staff to begin contingency planning last month after the Security Council set tough terms for resumed inspections in Iraq. His Canadian deputy, Louise Fréchette, is chairing regular meetings of officials to prepare for a possible humanitarian crisis. Confidential UN planning papers paint a grim picture of the effects of an attack against Iraq: they predict that production of oil will cease, the port of Umm Qasr on the Gulf would be shut down, and the bombing of bridges would cripple the railway network and make road travel difficult between the east and west of the country. The electricity grid would be seriously disrupted, with collateral damage to water and sewage systems. Government stocks of commodities such as grain would also be hit. Of the 900,000 predicted refugees, the UN estimates that about 100,000 would need immediate help. It all seems perfectly reasonable, but when it actually happens, it will be different, one person who reviewed the papers said. It always is. At an unpublicised meeting in Geneva on December 13, the UN appealed to more than ten donor nations, including Britain, to provide $37 million (£23 million) to fund preparations for a crisis. The Rome-based World Food Programme said that it had started to put in place sufficient food for 900,000 people for a month. The UN High Commissioner for Refugees has a stockpile of supplies for 250,000 people ready to move at 72 hours notice, but has only enough tents and blankets for 100,000 people. It could take 12 weeks and $60 million to deliver enough supplies. The UN Childrens Fund, which has a warehouse in Denmark, has started moving supplies to Iraq and four neighbouring countries for 550,000 people inside Iraq and another 160,000 expected to spill into neighbouring states. A major source of tension in the planning is the relationship between the emergency operation and the large UN oil-for-food programme that has been overseeing relief supplies inside Iraq for the past seven years. The UN estimates that 16 million Iraqis, or 60 per cent of the population, are highly dependent on the monthly food basket provided under the programme. -- Outgoing mail is certified virus free Scanned by Norton AntiVirus A HREF=http://www.ctrl.org/;www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

The Bureaucracy Strikes Back is the story flowing from the courageous saga of Minneapolis FBI agent Coleen Rowley, who blew the whistle on higher-ups in the FBI's bureaucracy. Just seven months ago she was being heralded as a national hero for daring to testify that top-level FBI officials had stymied efforts by Minneapolis agents to search records of Zacarias Moussaoui before the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. A go-ahead from Washington for a search in Minneapolis might have yielded information that might have prevented the horrid attacks. A search of Moussaoui's belongings after 9/11 found clues to the plot. When Rowley appeared before congressional committees in Washington, there were concerns being expressed that she might pay a price for her courage. The real question is not what happens today or tomorrow, the late Sen. Paul Wellstone said at the time Rowley was testifying. It's what happens in the next year or two, or after that. That's always the case with whistle-blowers. It's going to be important for us to remain vigilant in her case. What's happened? Even in the midst of her testimony in Washington early last June, the FBI seemed to deliver a pointed message to Rowley that she was on her own. During a break in her testimony, Rowley had gone to FBI headquarters. Rather than provide a vehicle or any sort of escort for the agent when she left the FBI building, Rowley was left to fend for herself. She stepped out the door and into swarms of TV news crews. The situation was so chaotic that Rowley was concerned that some of the TV people might be injured by passing traffic. Now come reports of what appears to be another message being delivered to Rowley and her ilk. The Star Tribune's Greg Gordon reported last week that at a quiet little ceremony earlier this month, Marion (Spike) Bowman was one of nine people in the bureau to receive an award for exceptional performance. The award carries with it a cash bonus of 20 to 35 percent of the recipient's salary and a framed certificate signed by the president. What does this have to do with Rowley? Bowman heads the FBI's National Security Law Unit. That's the unit that blocked Minneapolis agents from pursuing their suspicions about Moussaoui. Bowman received the big pats on the back (and cash) a few days before the House and Senate Intelligence committees turned in their reports of pre-Sept. 11 intelligence failures. The committees said that Minneapolis agents deserved honors for their work and that those who performed poorly should be disciplined. The National Security Law Unit was singled out by Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala., for inept performance. There were no FBI honors for the Minneapolis office. There was a big honor for the lead antagonist of the Minneapolis office. But the beauty of a truly slick bureaucracy is that you can never really know the motive for an action. Obviously, no FBI official ever said that Rowley was shoved out of the bureau's headquarters and into the thundering media herd last June as a little payback for her integrity. And FBI director Bob Mueller isn't about to say that Bowman is getting heralded for exceptional performance as a way of showing whistle-blowers who's got the biggest whistle. In fact, there are Mueller-defenders who gasp in horror at the suggestion that the FBI would ever be so crass as to play Machiavellian games with its prestigious awards. We're supposed to believe that despite that disappointing little experience with the Minneapolis agents before Sept. 11, Bowman's office had done just a great job. Brian Atwood, dean of the University of Minnesota's Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs since Oct. 1, is an expert on the subject of bureaucracies. Until global realities changed, Atwood was being credited with streamlining the U.S. Agency for International Development. He said it's very possible that top officials in the FBI feel that Bowman deserves being defended from what they see as unfair political attacks. He would be seen as one of the best [in the FBI hierarchy], otherwise he would not be in a position to make [such] a mistake, Atwood said. So when Bowman was criticized by Rowley and politicians, it's very likely that top FBI officials would ask, What can we do to spit in their eye? The FBI's Minneapolis office has not commented on Bowman's award for exceptional performance. Presumably, agents in Minneapolis are so busy bracing for the next message from Washington they don't have time to talk. -- Doug Grow is at [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Outgoing mail is certified virus free Scanned by Norton AntiVirus Hell hath no fury like a bureaucrat scorned. ~~Milton Friedman A HREF=http://www.ctrl.org/;www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Proof Bad equals Good
-Caveat Lector- Using logic, it is obvious bad things are good for the people of Planet Earth. 1. All economic growth is good. 2. Hurricanes and other disasters, produce economic growth when communities are rebuilt and household furnishings purchased. Therefore they are good. 3. Mass murder produces economic growth for funeral directors, morticians, medical examiners and graveyards. Therefore murder is good. 4. Illegal drugs produce economic growth; dealers buy automobiles, houses, guns and electronic surveillance protection. Therefore illicit drugs are good. 5. Latchkey kids, by raising themselves, allow additional jobs to be filled, increasing economic activity. Therefore kids without supervision are good. 6. Pollution of air and water produce economic growth when the toxic materials are removed. Therefore pollution is good. 7. Pornography and prostitution produce economic growth as perfect examples of trickle-down economics. Therefore the sex trade is good. 8. You name it; by this standard nearly all bad things are good. 9. And by destroying entire countries which must then be rebuilt, WAR is the ultimate good for the people of Earth.

-Caveat Lector- I see the difference. You presented an edited form of an article. The editing took the form of quoting the part that backs up your belief, while editing out all the parts that go against your belief system. My point remains the same - every time you choose to show only part of something, you are displaying an opinion. Who cares? My point was not about the article, but about you. The article speaks for itself. Or it would if it was allowed to remain whole - as it was presented it only speaks for you. AS to your personal attacks and insults - they roll off me as I never enter a battle of wits with the unarmed. I would love for you point out one place where I rationalized.

[CTRL] Boston Globe Online / Metro | Region / Lennon picks sites for sale, eyes court test in abuse cases
-Caveat Lector- http://www.boston.com/dailyglobe2/357/metro/Lennon_picks_sites_for_sale_eyes_court_te st_in_abuse_cases+.shtml This makes the Catholic Church a for profit organisation, no? A:E:R THIS STORY HAS BEEN FORMATTED FOR EASY PRINTING Lennon picks sites for sale, eyes court test in abuse cases By Michael Rezendes and Walter V. Robinson, Globe Staff, 12/23/2002 In a gesture aimed at assuring 500 alleged victims of clergy sexual abuse that the Boston Archdiocese is committed to a financial settlement of their claims, the newly named apostolic administrator, Bishop Richard G. Lennon, said yesterday that he has selected church properties for sale and directed officials to put them on the market ''as soon as possible.'' Lennon would not say which properties will be sold, but said he is seeking - in his first week on the job - to demonstrate his resolve to settle the growing number of sexual abuse cases. ''I chose a number of properties and asked the chancellor to go forward and market them as soon as possible, so we can show our commitment to this,'' Lennon said. But Lennon also said that, in a move designed to include the church's insurance companies in a comprehensive settlement, church lawyers today will serve attorneys of alleged victims with notice of a motion to have all their claims dismissed based on the US Constitution's guarantee of freedom of religion. Lennon said the motion is being filed to satisfy insurance companies' requirements that the church avail itself of every significant defense before contributing to the settlement of claims. But he insisted that the first priority of the archdiocese is to reach such a financial agreement. ''The reason we're serving the motion primarily is to keep the insurance companies in the loop,'' Lennon said in an interview. ''There's no way the archdiocese can financially come up with the money that is needed to have fair settlements on its own. We need the insurance companies.'' A law firm advising the archdiocese has concluded that the church has at least $90 million available for a settlement, most of it through coverage provided by two companies, Travelers and Kemper. And lawyers for the alleged victims have estimated that a comprehensive settlement covering the 500 pending claims could exceed $100 million. Lennon said that he believes, as a matter of principle, in the First Amendment defense advanced in the motion to be served today, but that the primary purpose of the motion is to satisfy the insurance companies. ''Our first priority is to respond to victims and survivors,'' Lennon said. ''Yet, what we've put together for the motion is substantial. ... The document is a document of integrity and substance.'' The Rev. Robert W. Oliver Jr., a canon law professor at St. John Seminary, accompanied Lennon in the interview at the seminary in Brighton. Oliver said church leaders fear that plaintiffs and their lawyers in the sexual abuse cases will interpret the motion literally and not see it as a strategy to assure the participation of insurance companies in a settlement. ''The risk is they'll think we're walking away, and what we're actually doing is the opposite,'' he said. When told of the church's plan last evening, Roderick MacLeish Jr. - a lawyer with Greenberg Traurig, which represents about half of the 500 people with pending claims against the archdiocese - said that the step outlined by Lennon was not unexpected. He said he believes Lennon's explanation. ''I would not criticize Bishop Lennon for taking this step,'' MacLeish said. ''I believe he is genuine and wants to reach a resolution of these cases. I want to give him a chance to do it.'' MacLeish said that Suffolk Superior Court Judge Constance M. Sweeney, who is handling all the abuse claims against the archdiocese, had earlier set today as the deadline for the archdiocese to formally notify the plaintiffs' lawyers that it will seek to have all claims dismissed on First Amendment grounds. MacLeish also said he does not believe that other lawyers for alleged victims will criticize the move, despite Lennon's evident concern that the church's latest legal maneuver would be seen by some as a way for the church to shelter itself from victims' claims. MacLeish noted that the First Amendment argument has already been rejected by several Superior Court judges in Massachusetts, including Sweeney when she ruled in November 2001 in favor of the Globe's motion to unseal church records in the case of defrocked priest John J. Geoghan. It was only a month ago when Sweeney, using unusually harsh language, denied a church motion on constitutional grounds to shield 11,000 pages of church documents on priests accused of sexual misconduct. Cardinal Bernard F. Law resigned as archbishop of Boston after the documents were made public. Although no Massachusetts appellate court has ruled on the merits of the church's First Amendment claim, MacLeish said he believes

AER Print this article | Close this window Absinthe minded December 23 2002 Mix one part movie mythology with a dash of danger and drug culture, then serve up the latest cocktail craze setting Sydney on fire - absinthe. Given wings by Kylie Minogue (who played the Green Absinthe Fairy in Moulin Rouge), the once- blacklisted spirit has found new life on an exclusive number of drink menus around town. Since the release of Baz Luhrmann's film last year, the decadent drink of choice for turn-of- the- century artists such as Toulouse-Lautrec and Van Gogh has found fame once more with the truly indulged of London, New York and, now, Sydney. In London, party spies say absinthe has fuelled an underground drink culture for the past 18 months. Bans were placed on the spirit post-World War I, when its hallucinatory, brain- destroying properties played havoc. As one UK source, who asked to remain nameless, admitted last week, the 75 proof potion (made from aniseed, licorice, wormwood and star anise) has a reputation for prompting strange party behaviour. After just a few drinks at one party I felt fine, but by the end of the night I was upstairs putting on women's clothing and had my partner doing my make-up, he said. Following his own lead, Luhrmann has also set up an absinthe fan club in New York, where he introduced the spirit to the social set during planning for his production of La Boheme. Absinthe remains prohibited in some parts of the world, but illicit internet trade and limited supplies by some authorised makers like Pernod have met growing demand. In Australia, Pernod has released just 30 cases of absinthe for sale at selected bars in Sydney and Melbourne, and is happy to keep fans wanting more. Part of the allure is the fact it is hard to find, is in limited numbers and a little elusive, Pernod spokesman Jacques D'Arribo said. Hemmesphere threw a party when it received its quota. Bar host Carolina Jensen said Sydney's enthusiastic bar flies had taken to the emerald spirit. People have been very curious about it since we introduced it last year, she said. We've put six absinthe cocktails on our menu and it's been a huge success. It's all part of Sydney's current cocktail craze. It's a very competitive scene among barmen, said Jensen, predicting quality bourbon will be the next big thing.

Re: [CTRL] Absinthe minded - smh.com.au
-Caveat Lector- Absinthe is available in the US if you order from overseas. I have several bottles here myself. The absinthe of today does contain thujone, but in a far less concentrated form, probably 100 - 1000 times less saturated in the alcohol. It was banned with a fervor across Europe in the 19th century that very much resembles the anti-drug hysteria of today. The seminal case was a Swiss man who killed his family after 2 glasses of absinthe. Of course what every article and reformer of the day failed to mention was that he been drinking whiskey all day as well, but all blame landed squarely on the absinthe. on 12/23/02 12:53 PM, Euphorian at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: -Caveat Lector- http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2002/12/22/1040510970213.html In the U.S., you can buy a version of this without the active ingredient that made people crazy ... thujone.

AER Print this article | Close this window Absinthe minded December 23 2002 Mix one part movie mythology with a dash of danger and drug culture, then serve up the latest cocktail craze setting Sydney on fire - absinthe. Given wings by Kylie Minogue (who played the Green Absinthe Fairy in Moulin Rouge), the once- blacklisted spirit has found new life on an exclusive number of drink menus around town. Since the release of Baz Luhrmann's film last year, the decadent drink of choice for turn-of- the- century artists such as Toulouse-Lautrec and Van Gogh has found fame once more with the truly indulged of London, New York and, now, Sydney. In London, party spies say absinthe has fuelled an underground drink culture for the past 18 months. Bans were placed on the spirit post-World War I, when its hallucinatory, brain- destroying properties played havoc. As one UK source, who asked to remain nameless, admitted last week, the 75 proof potion (made from aniseed, licorice, wormwood and star anise) has a reputation for prompting strange party behaviour. After just a few drinks at one party I felt fine, but by the end of the night I was upstairs putting on women's clothing and had my partner doing my make-up, he said. Following his own lead, Luhrmann has also set up an absinthe fan club in New York, where he introduced the spirit to the social set during planning for his production of La Boheme. Absinthe remains prohibited in some parts of the world, but illicit internet trade and limited supplies by some authorised makers like Pernod have met growing demand. In Australia, Pernod has released just 30 cases of absinthe for sale at selected bars in Sydney and Melbourne, and is happy to keep fans wanting more. Part of the allure is the fact it is hard to find, is in limited numbers and a little elusive, Pernod spokesman Jacques D'Arribo said. Hemmesphere threw a party when it received its quota. Bar host Carolina Jensen said Sydney's enthusiastic bar flies had taken to the emerald spirit. People have been very curious about it since we introduced it last year, she said. We've put six absinthe cocktails on our menu and it's been a huge success. It's all part of Sydney's current cocktail craze. It's a very competitive scene among barmen, said Jensen, predicting quality bourbon will be the next big thing.

[CTRL] Telegraph - Blair snub for Netanyahu's attempt to isolate Arafat
-Caveat Lector- http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml? xml=/news/2002/12/21/wisr21.xmlsSheet=/news/2002/12/21/ixnewstop.html Blair snub for Netanyahu's attempt to isolate Arafat By Anton La Guardia,Diplomatic Editor (Filed: 21/12/2002) Tony Blair snubbed Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli foreign minister, yesterday amid growing tensions over his plan to hold a Palestinian conference in London next month. Mr Netanyahu, on a tour of Europe in an effort to isolate Yasser Arafat, the Palestinian leader, pressed his case in London with Jack Straw, the Foreign Secretary. But his request to meet the Prime Minister was turned down, even though Mr Blair will see Amram Mitzna, the leader of Israel's opposition Labour Party, next month ahead of the Israeli elections. British officials said Mr Blair's decision not to receive Mr Netanyahu, a rival to Ariel Sharon, the prime minister, was deliberate. He has previously entertained Israeli foreign ministers such as Shimon Peres, a member of the Labour Party, which is more amenable to compromise with the Palestinians than the ruling Likud bloc. The acrimony seems mutual. Before arriving in London, Mr Netanyahu criticised Mr Blair's plan to hold an international conference on Palestinian reform as pointless. He said there was no chance of effective political or economic reforms - America's condition for peace talks on Palestinian statehood - as long as Mr Arafat was leader. I can tell you that I certainly see no difference between Arafat and Osama bin Laden and other terrorist leaders, except one: Arafat is a bin Laden with good public relations, especially in Europe, he said. He also criticised Mr Blair's decision to welcome President Bashar al-Assad of Syria to London this week, saying it sent a message that terror pays. 20 December 2002: Girl at window 'killed by Israelis' in Gaza Strip 17 December 2002: Blair strives for peace as Assad digs his heels in 16 December 2002: Blair stakes reputation on dialogue with 'rogue' state 10 December 2002: Hawks defy Sharon in vote for candidates 4 November 2002: Netanyahu back in government 14 June 2002: Confusion as White House shifts its policy on Middle East Previous story: DVT victims lose fight with airlines Next story: Police attack rule sparing burglars from jail © Copyright of Telegraph Group Limited 2002.

You imply an exclusionary principle that just did not exist they were worked as slaves to death.

It only compounds the evil of the entire time. It only muddies the impossibly pristine concepts of good and evil. And here is a place where a phrase like some but not all (sumbinal as RA wilson wrote) would help. Sumbinal zionists were working with Nazis. Most were not.

Slavery is evil and ought to be decried...like the white slavery that Israel engages in to this very day. Israel does much wrong. It treats Palestinians very badly.

[CTRL] Telegraph - Netanyahu lashes out at Blair
-Caveat Lector- http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml? xml=/news/2002/12/23/wisr23.xmlsSheet=/news/2002/12/23/ixhome.html Ah ... the return to post-WW2 diplomacy. A:E:R Netanyahu lashes out at Blair By Anton La Guardia, Diplomatic Editor (Filed: 23/12/2002) Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli foreign minister, lashed out at Tony Blair yesterday, virtually accusing the Government of bowing to terrorism by courting President Bashar al-Assad of Syria and trying to rehabilitate Yasser Arafat. Benjamin Netanyahu His comments came as Palestinians cancelled elections planned for Jan 20, on the grounds that it was impossible to hold a ballot while Israel occupied major Palestinian towns. The European Union expressed understanding for the decision, with the EU external commissioner warning that there could be no free elections with tanks in the streets and restricted movement. Mr Netanyahu, who was snubbed by Downing Street on Friday, has privately told aides that Britain is losing the moral clarity it showed during the war in Afghanistan and the campaign to disarm Iraq. He was hardly more diplomatic in public, saying last week's visit to London by the Syrian leader was a mistake and predicting that a planned conference on Palestinian reform was doomed to failure. The acrimony between Israel and Britain reflects Blair's impatience with the lack of progress in reviving Israeli-Palestinian peace talks. Senior British officials said he was very frustrated with President George W Bush's reluctance to try to force the pace of mediation. Last week, Mr Blair distanced himself from American policy by inviting the Syrian president for a high- profile visit to London and announcing plans to hold the conference on Palestinian reform in London next month. Mr Netanyahu was careful to say Mr Blair's efforts for peace were honourable. But he made little effort to hide his scorn for the recent tilt towards the Arabs. He was particularly riled by the honours shown to Dr Assad. When you are fighting terrorism, to invite the ruler of a quintessentially terrorist state - who houses terrorist groups, colludes with Iraq and supports Hizbollah - is not the right signal, he said. Similarly, he said Palestinian violence should be punished rather than encouraged by giving Mr Arafat's lieutenants an international platform such as the London conference. No reforms are possible with Arafat, Mr Netanyahu added. 21 December 2002: Blair snub for Netanyahu's attempt to isolate Arafat 17 December 2002: Blair strives for peace as Assad digs his heels in 16 December 2002: Blair stakes reputation on dialogue with 'rogue' state 4 November 2002: Netanyahu back in government 3 July 2002: Britain risks rift with America over talks with Arafat 27 June 2002: Arafat in poll challenge to Bush Next story: Blair offers £50m fishing buy-out © Copyright of Telegraph Group Limited 2002.

They've established that mothers' milk passes along immunities and people generally acquire immunities through just being born of two healthy parents. Could the reactions to certain immunisations be cases of overload? A:E:R FRIDAY, DECEMBER 20, 2002 The Day They Quarantined N.Y. Exercise Called Red X Terrifies Authorities BY COLIN MINER E-mail this article - It was a hot day in June and scores of New Yorkers were dying, the hospitals were overwhelmed, and the citys emergency services were strained to capacity trying to deal with a biological attack. Mayor Bloomberg, Police Commissioner Ray Kelly, Fire Commissioner Nicholas Scoppetta, Deputy Mayor Marc Shaw, and John Odermatt, the head of the citys office of Emergency Management struggled to keep casualties to a minimum and to do their best to make sure the city did not shut down. If it doesnt sound familiar its because it happened only on tabletops in the Brooklyn headquarters of the citys emergency management office. It was Operation Sandbox, a drill organized by Mr. Odermatt and his staff to keep the citys leaders prepared. This city is better prepared than any other major city, the mayor said. Theres nothing we do that we shouldnt question every day and say, How can we do it better? If we ever get into a situation where we are afraid to ask if we could have done it better, we are in big trouble. It was not the first bio-terrorism drill the city had run, and it would not be the last. In May 2001 before the attacks on the World Trade Center the citys emergency management office, then under the direction of Richard Sheirer organized Red X, in which terrorists attacked New York with a biological agent. Five minutes into the exercise you forgot it was an exercise, Mr. Sheirer recalled. We virtually quarantined Manhattan. A second part of the exercise called Tripod tested the citys ability to dispense medication in large quantities on an emergency basis. Mr. Sheirer said the citys response to the Trade Center attacks benefited from the drills. It all boils down to practice, Mr. Sheirer said. And with the threat of a biological, radiological, or chemical attack on the city a realistic threat, the citys health infrastructure has been struggling to stay prepared. The threat of bio-terrorism reminds everyone that the public health is integral to public safety, the citys health commissioner, Dr. Thomas Frieden, told The New York Sun. We look at the threat from two angles: detection and response. Detection involves the department monitoring patters of illness, ambulance runs, emergency room visits, and prescriptions, according to Dr. Frieden. We are paying attention to more than 30,000 pieces of information that are collected every day, he said. As a result, health officials who once found their preparations to limited to things like the flu, tuberculosis, AIDS, and more commonplace health emergencies, now find themselves drawing up plans to respond to everything from anthrax to smallpox to dirty bombs. A recent study by The Federation of American Scientists said the explosion of a dirty bomb at the lower tip of Manhattan would contaminate an area of well over 1,000 square miles, extending over three states. There would be a one-in-ten risk of death from cancer in an area of about 300 city blocks. Contamination in Manhattan would result in a one-in-a-hundred chance of residents dying from cancer. It used to be unrealistic to even think that a dirty bomb could be detonated in New York City, Senator Schumer said. In this new world, the unthinkable has been thought of and we need to respond. Dr. Neal Shipley, the director of emergency medicine at North General Hospital in Harlem, said dirty bombs are almost the least of the terrorism-related concerns facing the citys health community. Im much more concerned about a biological attack than a chemical or radiological attack, he said. As horrible as it may be with a bomb, you know whats happened, you know who the injured are, and you know what the danger zone is. If someone attacks with smallpox it could be days before anyone realizes whats going on. And by then, it will almost be impossible to know how widespread the problem is. That point was made perfectly on September 11, 2001, when thousands of people many covered with ash and debris made their way by foot, car, train, and boat to more than 100 hospitals. If the attack had had a biological component and those thousands of people had spread out like that, the consequences could have been horrific, according to Susan Waltman, senior vice president and general counsel of the Greater New York Hospital Association.

[CTRL] t r u t h o u t - Sanders Works to Repeal Provisions of Patriot Act
-Caveat Lector- http://www.truthout.org/docs_02/12.24E.sanders.usapa.htm Go To Original Sanders Works to Repeal Provisions of Patriot Act By Patrick Armstrong Brattleboro Reformer Saturday, 21 December, 2002 BRATTLEBORO -- Congressman Bernard Sanders said Friday he will introduce legislation to exempt libraries and bookstores from parts of the sweeping USA Patriot Act. Sanders' announcement came as local activists prepared to launch an effort to raise awareness about the Patriot Act and other legislation, which they say threatens Americans' civil liberties. The expansion of surveillance, monitoring and investigation into our libraries and book sellers is truly disturbing, Sanders said in a statement Friday released in conjunction with a Burlington press conference. Libraries and bookstores have always been a source of learning, knowledge and information. The right to read without the fear of government surveillance is a cornerstone of our democracy. I will do everything in my power to ensure that Congress passes legislation that will protect Americans' constitutional rights to read books without fear that someone is violating their right to privacy. The Patriot Act grants law enforcement officials expanded power to access the records of bookstores and libraries when conducting investigations. It also prohibits bookstore owners and librarians from revealing that records have been released. In an interview Friday, Sanders, an independent, said when Congress reconvenes in January he will introduce a bill barring government surveillance of Americans' library borrowing and bookstore purchases. This is, I think, a major abrogation of civil liberties, Sanders said. This is a very serious problem, and I'm going to work hard to get this passed. Sanders, who voted against the Patriot Act, said he decided to introduce this legislation after receiving a Nov. 21 letter from Karen Lane, president of the Vermont Library Association. In her letter, Lane urged Sanders to present a bill repealing these provisions in the Patriot Act. The freedom to read is one of the cornerstones of democracy, Lane stated. Our professions are founded on principles that encourage the free expression of ideas and the right of a citizenry to access those ideas free of censorship, violations of privacy, or the threat of governmental intrusion. There is no question of the need to protect Americans from the threat of terrorism, Sanders emphasized. But the government had the ability to access these types of records before, he said, though the standards and needs required for obtaining the information were much higher. The Patriot Act creates a very, very low threshold in terms of the criteria allowing them to (access the information) said Sanders. The requirement that a librarian cannot reveal that there is an investigation into their records makes the librarian complicit in that investigation, said Sanders. In addition, these provisions of the Patriot Act constitute an unfunded mandate, Sanders said, since they force publicly funded agencies to use resources in order to comply with federal law, but provide no additional money to meet those requirements. When the Patriot Act was passed shortly after Sept. 11, there were no public hearings on the legislation. Sanders said his bill is aimed at raising awareness about these provisions in the Patriot Act, thus gaining broad bipartisan support. It's also critical that citizens understand the act, as well, the congressman said. Public awareness is also the goal of an ad hoc group of local citizens who hope to raise awareness not only about the Patriot Act but also the Homeland Security Act and orders and rules from the executive branch. We're concerned about the fact that this feels like an infringement on our rights, and we need to go on record as saying this, said Sarah Edwards, a member of the Brattleboro Selectboard who was elected Nov. 5 to the Vermont House as a Progressive. The group has drafted resolutions, similar to those passed in 19 other communities including Burlington and Oakland, Calif., affirming civil rights and calling on local government officials to oppose parts of legislation that violate civil rights and civil liberties. Ellen Kaye, another member of the group, said part of the goal is to educate citizens about the threats to civil liberties. We feel that an educated community is really going to protect its rights, she said. Kaye said the group will bring the resolutions to Brattleboro and surrounding towns, and will hold a public forum on Jan. 16 with Ben Scotch, director of the Vermont affiliate of the American Civil Liberties Union. Edwards said she would bring the resolution to the Brattleboro Selectboard probably sometime in January for the board to consider adopting. Sanders commended the effort. I think that is exactly the right approach, he said. My hope is that other communities in Vermont will do it. My hope is the

But the world capitalist system is reeling from a grave economic crisis, the worst since the end of the second inter-imperialist war. Even before the Sept. 11 attack, the Bush regimewas already agitating for an increase in military production as a way to revive the U.S. economy. In this connection, he has been warmongering and threatening and launching attacks of aggression against countries labeled by the U.S. as "rogue" states. Since the Sept. 11 attacks, the U.S. has used these as pretext for launching a war of aggression against Afghanistan, threatening other countries(the 'axis of evil' and 12 countries 'harboring terrorists') and undertaking massive war preparations. In the aftermath of the Sept. 11 events in the U.S., the imperialists and their reactionary lackeys in client countries have launched a new offensive against the people's democratic rights under the pretext of waging a 'war against terrorism.' The U.S. has seized on the Sept. 11 events to wage aggressive wars and thereby accomplish their geopolitical objectives to establish control of strategic areas in the Middle East, Central Asia and Southeast Asia. It has also taken the lead in imposing draconian measures that further infringe on the democratic rights of the people and to suppress any opposition to their anti-people policies.We have seen U.S. military intervention and aggression in the Balkans, Middle East, Africa, and Central Asia. We have seen the state terrorism of the U.S. violating International Humanitarian Law, disregarding and misappropriating UN resolutions. It even launched aggression under various pretexts, such as "human rights", "humanitarian mission", and "peacemaking." This war is a continuation of the economic terrorism of IMF-World Bank and WTO by military means. It is aimed at suppressing the peoples that wage revolution, the nations that fight for liberation and the countries or governments that assert national independence. The US is overconfident that it can carry out acts of aggression unilaterally or with the aid of its imperialist allies. But these allies are becoming wary of the propensity of the U.S. to undertake unilateral actions, its hysterical bellicosity and its extreme voracity in grabbing most of the spoils. The U.S. is sowing the ground for violent contradictions among the imperialist powers themselves."Free market" globalization has victimized most grievously the oppressed peoples and nations. But it has also weakened the puppet rulers. The loot to share among the competing reactionaries has diminished. Thus, they tend to become more violent in their political rivalry. They have become more corrupt and repressive than ever before.The U.S. Hegemonic Drive in the RegionLet me cite a recently formulated strategy of U.S. imperialism to further expand its hegemonic drive in the world, particularly in Central Asia and the Asia-Pacific Region. Called the Quadrennial Defense Review 2001, this study states that America's overseas presence, concentrated in Western Europe and Northeast Asia "is inadequate for the new strategic environment, in which U.S. economic and security interests are global and potential threats in other areas of the world are emerging." The new strategic environment of course refers to one that is favorable to the global trade and investments of U.S. monopoly capitalism. Based on this strategic environment, QDR 2001 calls for a more aggressive U.S. global security posture, a "political-military" offensive different from what Bush officials call the Clinton administration's purely "defensive" stance. Accordingly, the U.S. global military posture will be reoriented to : " (a) develop a basing system that provides greater flexibility for U.S. forces in critical areas of the world, placing emphasis on additional bases and stations beyond Western Europe and Northeast

The activists behind the fake corporate websites have fought back, and obtained substantial publicity in the process. Fake websites have been used by activists before, but Dow-Chemical.com and BursonMarsteller.com represent the first time that such websites have successfully been used to publicize abuses by specific corporations. A December 3 press release originating from one of the fake sites, Dow-Chemical.com, explained the "real" reasons that Dow could not take responsibility for the Bhopal catastrophe, which has resulted in an estimated 20,000 deaths over the years (www.theyesmen.org/dow/#release). "Our prime responsibilities are to the people who own Dow shares, and to the industry as a whole," the release stated. "We cannot do anything for the people of Bhopal." The fake site immediately received thousands of outraged e-mails (www.dowethics.com/r/about/corp/email.htm). Within hours, the real Dow sent a legal threat to Dow-Chemical.com's upstream provider, Verio, prompting Verio to shut down the fake Dow's ISP for nearly a day, closing down hundreds of unrelated websites and bulletin boards in the process. The fake Dow website quickly resurfaced at an ISP in Australia. (www.theyesmen.org/dow/#threat) In a comical anticlimax, Dow then used a little-known domain-name rule to take possession of Dow-Chemical.com (www.theyesmen.org/dow/#story), another move which backfired when amused journalists wrote articles in newspapers from The New York Times to The Hindu in India (www.theyesmen.org/dow/#links), and sympathetic activists responded by cloning and mirroring the site at many locations, including www.dowethics.com, www.dowindia.com and, with a twist, www.mad-dow-disease.com. Dow continues to play whack-a-mole with these sites (at least one ISP has received veiled threats). Burson-Marsteller, the public relations company that helped to "spin" Bhopal, has meanwhile sued college student Paul Hardwin ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) for putting up a fake Burson-Marsteller site, www.bursonmarsteller.com, which recounted how the PR giant helped to downplay the Bhopal disaster. Burson-Marsteller's suit against Hardwin will be heard next week by the World Intellectual Property Organization (www.reamweaver.com/bmwipo/wipo.html). Hardwin, unable to afford a lawyer, has composed a dryly humorous 57-page rebuttal to the PR giant's lawsuit (www.reamweaver.com/bmwipo/response.htm#reality). On page 7, for instance, the student notes that Burson-Marsteller's "stated goal is 'to ensure that the perceptions which surround our clients and influence their stakeholders are consistent with reality.'" Hardwin goes on to assert that his satirical domain is doing precisely that, by publicizing "academic and journalistic materials about Burson-Marsteller's involvement with and relationship to, for example, Philip Morris and the National Smoker's Alliance, a consumer front group designed to create the appearance of public support for big-tobacco policies; Union Carbide and the deaths of 20,000 people following the 1984 disaster in Bhopal; and political regimes such as that of Romanian dictator Nicolae Ceausescu and more recently Saudi Arabia following the events of September 11; and to properly associate them with the relevant Trademark so that they may be understood accordingly by Internet users." In response to the suit's claim that "a substantial degree of goodwill is associated with [the Burson-Marstellar Trademark]" Hardwin offers much "evidence to the contrary" including "a newspaper headline in which the Complainant is characterized as 'the Devil.'" The primary goal of RTMark (rtmark.com) is to publicize corporate subversion of the democratic process. Just like other corporations, it achieves its aims by any and all means at its disposal. RTMark has previously helped to publicize websites against political parties (rtmark.com/othersites.html#fpo), political figures (rtmark.com/bush.html), and entities like the World Trade Organization (www.gatt.org) and the World Economic Forum (www.world-economic-forum.com).

The PR campaign was as important as the military one. How this or that tactic would play in the media became a major strategical consideration. It didnt matter much whether the bombing was actually surgical as long as the coverage was; if the victims didnt appear it was as if they didnt exist. The Nintendo effect worked so well that the euphoric generals had to caution against too much public euphoria for fear that it might backfire. Interviews with soldiers in the desert revealed that they, like everyone else, depended almost totally on the media to tell them what was supposedly happening. The domination of image over reality was sensed by everyone. A large portion of the coverage consisted of coverage of the coverage. The spectacle itself presented superficial debates on the new level of instant global spectacularization and its effects on the spectator. Nineteenth-century capitalism alienated people from themselves and from each other by alienating them from the products of their own activity. This alienation has been intensified as those products have increasingly become productions that we passively contemplate. The power of the mass media is only the most obvious manifestation of this development; in the larger sense the spectacle is everything from arts to politicians that have become autonomous representations of life. The spectacle is not a collection of images; it is a social relation among people, mediated by images (Debord, The Society of the Spectacle. Along with arms profits, oil control, international power struggles and other factors which have been so widely discussed as to need no comment here, the war involved contradictions between the two basic forms of spectacle society. In the diffuse spectacle people are lost amid the variety of competing spectacles, commodities, styles and ideologies that are presented for their consumption. The diffuse spectacle arises within societies of pseudoabundance (America is the prototype and still the unchallenged world leader of spectacle production, despite its decline in other regards); but it is also broadcast to less developed regions being one of the main means by which the latter are dominated. Saddams regime is an example of the rival concentrated spectacle, in which people are conditioned to identify with the omnipresent image of the totalitarian leader as compensation for being deprived of virtually everything else. This image concentration is normally associated with a corresponding concentration of economic power, state capitalism, in which the state itself has become the sole, all-owning capitalist enterprise (classic examples are Stalins Russia and Maos China); but it may also be imported into Third World mixed economies (such as Saddams Iraq) or even, in times of crisis, into highly developed economies (such as Hitlers Germany). But for the most part the concentrated spectacle is a crude stopgap for regions as yet incapable of sustaining the variety of illusions of the diffuse spectacle, and in the long run it tends to succumb to the latter, more flexible form (as recently in eastern Europe and the USSR). At the same time, the diffuse form is tending to incorporate certain features of the concentrated one. The Gulf war reflected this convergence. The closed world of Saddams concentrated spectacle dissipated under the global floodlights of the diffuse spectacle; while the latter used the war as a pretext and a testing ground for implementing typically concentrated methods of control censorship, orchestration of patriotism, suppression of dissent. But the mass media are so monopolized, so pervasive and (despite token grumbling) so subservient to establishment policies that overtly repressive methods were hardly needed. The spectators, under the impression that they were expressing their own considered views, parroted the catch phrases and debated the pseudoissues that the media had instilled in them day after day, and as in any other spectator sport loyally supported the home team in the desert by rooting for it. This media control was reinforced by the spectators own internalized

Each of us can find the way that these weapons have lodged themselves into our minds, our values, and our projections. By exposing our own prejudices and privileges to the world, we begin a process of cultural healing, and trust which can transcend borders and battle lines.From: "Imaginal Diffusion Agency" In the Shadow of the Bomb: Growing Up in the War MachineYou raised that same hand Which made the genocide. Are you blind to the blood Of the holocaust That circulates through your hand! Yoko Hamada Outcry from the Inferno Having been born in a military hospital in the United States, my childhood is one of intimate relationship with the weaponry of war. My earliest memories are filled with large ships, submarines, jets and missiles. My identity is integrally tied to tools of annihilation, and my destiny is inseparable from their use. The men who launch the bombs, who order the killing, who design the destruction, are not twisted demons, but friendly family. Those who feel the wrath of the military cannot see the intimate affection and concern that causes their murder. This is the enduring irony of warfare: for an empire to maintain its security, others must suffer and die. For all of the goodness and lofty ideals an empire professes, those beyond its borders must endure the opposite end of the sword. Throughout my life I have awestruck and horrified at the unspeakable immensity of the U.S. military machine. As a small boy, of course every machine seems immense and powerful, but how many Americans have walked around an aircraft carrier, lined with jet fighters? Stood next to a Trident submarine, filled with the most deadly weapons ever devised? How many of people who vote for, and pay for these weapons systems know the overwhelming and colossal forces they are unleashing on the world? Sadly, I must report, very few. As a child, I moved around the Pacific Theater of Operations, from military base to military base, and everywhere I went I explored the nooks and crannies behind the machinery. These bases, and the weapons they harbor, are in constant flux, a never-ending deployment of policing and preparation. People have been given impressive titles and badges, and intimidating uniforms, and they have no choice but to keep busy arming themselves against an enemy. Think about it for a minute: every hour of every day, at thousands of bases across the globe, in tens of thousands of aircraft, ships and submarines, a civilization ofwarfare is moving, burning fuel, drinking coffee, polishing weapons, aiming themselves toward domination. It literally boggles the mind to calculate the amount of human resources that are being expended on this Orwellian enterprise, and the environmental and social consequences are beyond calculation. While attending grade-school in Japan, at the height of the Vietnam War, I was confronted with the ghosts of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This nefarious event haunts the American culture, as surely as slavery and the JFK assassination. As a child, I could see the wickedness of empire and its effects on the psychology of a nation, both the perpetrator and abused. The deep trauma due to lack of admission and apology is like a cancer eating at the heart of our culture. A useful tool for those who find themselves so intimately involved with the machinery of war is to step back in history. Leap back a century or a millennium, and then analyze the activity around you. What would the Greek philosophers have to say, or the Founding Fathers of the United States? This is also a very effective tool for generating meaningful dialogue, and editorials such as this one. In the eyes of humankind, what constitutes a Crime Against Humanity? It is obvious that every military empire, from the Romans to the Nazis, did not believe their actions to be criminal, but deeply patriotic. They justified the slaughter and repression of their chosen enemies with their own cultural biases, and often ideals of beauty and truth. Is America any different? Where is our liberty and justice for all, in the poverty-stricken outlands, the bomb-riddled landscapes, the victims of land-mines, the mourning villages? It is time to put the proper labels on U.S. military activity, in the grand perspective of history. Hiroshima was a holocaust. The deployment of weapons of annihilation is genocide. There is nothing noble about incinerating people wholesale, and history will judge us just as harshly as we do the Nazis. We are evolving as a society toward telling the truth, no matter how brutally difficult it may be. Privilege can only insulate us from consequences for a limited time, and this is the lesson history provides. My mind was

-Caveat Lector- http://www.spiked-online.com/printable/0006DBA2.htm Column23 December 2002 Making everything hard work by Dr Michael Fitzpatrick Work Stress: The Making of a Modern Epidemic, David Wainwright and Michael Calnan, Open University Press, 2002. A recent bulletin from our local Primary Care Trust (PCT) reported a 'week of activities' under the banner 'Working on stress'. These included 'stress counselling', 'advice on coping with stress' and a range of complementary therapies (reflexology, aromatherapy and Shiatsu). While offering to check workers' blood pressures, managers also aimed to raise their 'self- awareness' of work-related stress. The bulletin reported that the week was 'a real success with overwhelming and positive feedback'. No doubt a relaxing massage with aromatic oils beats sitting at the computer, but in this excellent book David Wainwright and Michael Calnan warn of the danger of the emergence of a new identity: the work-stress victim. This trend is now encouraged by a wide range of influences, including the courts, health and safety legislation and policy initiatives, trade unions and employers' organisations, the media, the medical profession, and a substantial academic sector. The work-stress epidemic is believed to afflict around 'one in four' of all workers. Surveys conducted by the authors among a range of different workers - including GPs and other primary healthcare staff - confirm the extent to which the discourse of work stress has been assimilated in British society. As our PCT initiative confirms, the workplace has become the focus of psychotherapeutic intervention. The problem is that when workers adopt the identity of work-stress victim, and seek help from a counsellor or a doctor, they effectively relinquish sovereignty over their mental life. For some, it may be necessary to acknowledge that they cannot cope with a stressful job. But for many, the very process of raising awareness of stress and offering 'support' may facilitate the transition from being a coper to being a non-coper, from active worker to passive victim. Wainwright and Calnan are concerned that, while blurring the distinction between coper and non-coper may reduce the stigma of failure, it may also lower expectations of resilience. One of the strengths of Work Stress is its insistence on questioning many of the assumptions underlying the work-stress epidemic. For example, it is generally accepted that changes in working conditions and practices over the past 20 or 30 years have had a negative effect on workers. But there can be little doubt that working lives were much more arduous, dangerous and insecure in the first half of the twentieth century, when there was no epidemic of work stress. How has it come about that virtually any adverse experience at work has become redefined in terms of stress? The very fact that different workers respond differently to similar conditions confirms that the effect of workplace conditions is mediated through the consciousness of the individual worker. Whether or not adverse experiences at work lead 'to more serious psychological or physical health problems appears to depend upon a wide range of personal, social and cultural factors that determine an individual's resilience', argue Wainwright and Calnan. While most accounts of work-related stress tend to take it at face value as an epidemic disorder of the modern workplace, Wainwright and Calnan emphasise the central importance of the subjective factor, of the outlook of workers themselves, in the emergence of this phenomenon. Work Stress provides a fascinating survey of the 'history of stress', from the physiological and endocrinological studies of Walter Cannon and Hans Selye in the mid-twentieth century, to the more psychological and epidemiological studies of recent decades. Yet, despite a vast amount of research, much of it sponsored by employers concerned about their workers' productivity as much as their welfare, the nature of the stress response and its consequences remain poorly specified. The fact that high levels of stress have been invoked to explain the vulnerability to coronary heart disease of both thrusting entrepreneurs and low-status civil servants indicates the limitations of the concept. In response to the ahistorical approach of conventional accounts of stress, Wainwright and Calnan seek to incorporate the insights of epidemiology, psychology and physiology into a wider social, economic and cultural context. They emphasise 'the need to conceptualise the stressed worker as an emotionally expressive, embodied subject who is active in the context of power and social control'. They posit a 'triple helix self' from which subjectivity emerges: one strand is provided by the 'external environment' (nature, buildings, institutions); another is provided by 'discourse' (socially constructed understandings of our bodies' possibilities and

Nick Cook, investigative reporter for Jane's Defense, returned to his desk one day, coffee cup filled, to find a package. Picking up the package, Cook scanned the open plan office area searching for who might have put the package on his desk. Not seeing anything suspicious, he opened the package. After reading a bit of the contents, he made a decision. We all know that it is never about who you are, but the decisions you make. So thanks to Nick Cook's decision the reader is taken on the equivalent of a magical mystery tour. In the finest sense of that term. During the next three years of his life, Cook spends his spare time hunting down the source and reality of zero energy. All because of a copy of an article he found in the package on his desk. The article was titled The G-Engines Are Coming by Michael Gladych. Here's the kicker, the article was published in 1956 and talked about anti-gravity engines as if they were a very near future reality. The article named Martin Aircraft Company, Bell Aircraft, Lear and several other American manufacturers who would not spend millions of dollars on science fiction. Lawrence Bell, maker of the planes first to break the sound barrier, was quoted sounding as if his company was in the middle of developing equipment to cancel gravity. William Lear, long before he designed business jets, was thinking of how an anti-gravitational system would affect the pilot. You want adventure? You want secret meetings with insiders? You want late night/early morning telephone conversations with knowledgeable sources unwilling to allow Cook to give their real identity? Almost perpetuate journeys between England, United States and Eastern and Western Europe? Long bumpy rides to visit the ruins of Nazi/SS research facilities in Poland, Austria and the Fatherland? Cook has written a first rate true life detective novel. He knows very well how to report the story. Even if it is his own story. It is apparent the Cook loved immersing himself in this tale of a real life adventure. The exact decision Cook made was to research whether there was any basis of fact to the article. Therefore, the first thing he needed to do was to find the engineers quoted in the article and talk to them. Before interviewing one of the people that was still alive, George S. Trimble - head of Advanced Programs and Vice President of the G-Project at Martin Aircraft, Cook decided to do a search of Jane's library. Jane's All The World's Aircraft yearbook did not have any listings mentioning antigravity experiments. However, in the Jane's company library were copies of Interavia Aerospace Review. Being the astute thorough researcher that Cook is, he lists the issue (May 1956), the page number (373) and the exact name of the citation header (Intel, Washington D.C.) of a solid lead. A lead which hinted at a very real possibly of pursuit by very serious people into anti-gravitational technology. The article called the methodology electro-gravitics research, seeking the source of gravity and its control. When I read what Cook had written, my own reaction was wow! High level U.S. government people were committing money to various electro-gravitational projects but the public would need to dig very deep into obscure journals to discover that this research was taking place. Cook had read what George Trimble had stated, in Gladych's article, that a break through in electro-gravitics would take about

At 8 p.m. CST, the Mercury Radio on the Air began broadcasting Orson Welles' radio adaptation of H. G. Wells' War of the Worlds. As is now well known, the story was presented as if it were breaking news, with bulletins so realistic that an estimated one million people believed the world was actually under attack by Martians. Of that number, thousands succumbed to outright panic, not waiting to hear Welles' explanation at the end of the program that it had all been a Halloween prank, but fleeing into the night to escape the alien invad ers.Later, psychologist Hadley Cantril conducted a study of the effects of the broadcast and published his findings in a book, The Invasion from Mars: A Study in the Psychology of Panic. This study explored the power of broadcast media, particularly as it relates to the suggestibility of human beings under the influence of fear. Cantril was affiliated with Princeton University's Radio Research Project, which was funded in 1937 by the Rockefeller Foundation. Also affiliated with the Project was Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) member and Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS) executive Frank Stanton, whose network had broadcast the program. Stanton would later go on to head the news division of CBS, and in time would become president of the network, as well as chairman of the board of the RAND Corporation, the influential think tank which has done groundbreaking research on, among other things, mass brainwashing.Two years later, with Rockefeller Foundation money, Cantril established the Office of Public Opinion Research (OPOR), also at Princeton. Among the studies conducted by the OPOR was an analysis of the effectiveness of "psycho-political operations" (propaganda, in plain English) of the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), the forerunner of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Then, during World War II, Cantril÷and Rockefeller money÷assisted CFR member and CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow in setting up the Princeton Listening Center, the purpose of which was to study Nazi radio propaganda with the object of applying Nazi techniques to OSS propaganda. Out of this project came a new government agency, the Foreign Broadcast Intelligence Service (FBIS). The FBIS eventually became the United States Information Agency (USIA), which is the propaganda arm of the National Security Council.Thus, by the end of the 1940s, the basic research had been done and the propaganda apparatus of the national security state had been set up--just in time for the Dawn of Television ...Experiments conducted by researcher Herbert Krugman reveal that, when a person watches television, brain activity switches from the left to the right hemisphere. The left hemisphere is the seat of logical thought. Here, information is broken down into its component parts and critically analyzed. The right brain, however, treats incoming data uncritically, processing information in wholes, leading to emotional, rather than logical, responses. The shift from left to right

Busses leaving from 150 U.S. cities!! www.internationalanswer.org NO WAR ON IRAQ NATIONAL MARCH January 18, 2003 Washington D.C. San Francisco There are times in history when the action of the people can make a decisive difference. Today, the Bush administration officially announced that Iraq was in material breach of Resolution 1441 and they also leaked to the press the plan to go to war against Iraq sometime around January 27. We believe that we can still stop this war from happening. Thousands of innocent people in Iraq and an unknown number of U.S. GIs will die unless we can stop Bush's war plans. The Bush Administration is coming under increasing pressure as anti-war sentiment grows and it is confronted by outspoken U.S. opposition. Evidence of this is clear in the Los Angeles Times poll released on Tuesday, December 17. 72% of the people surveyed, including 60% of Republicans surveyed, said the President has not provided justification for starting a war against Iraq. The new poll reflects a dramatic reversal from a year ago when Bush first denounced Iraq in his Axis of Evil speech at the State of the Union address last January. At that time, the L.A. Times poll found support for military action greater than 70%. The L.A. poll numbers represent a dramatic shift in opinion. It is the work of the anti-war movement that is making the difference. Millions have participated in demonstrations, rallies and teach-ins. Hundreds of thousands of people have voted at VoteNoWar.org or signed petitions in their neighborhoods, worksites and schools. The efforts of all sectors in the anti-war movement are making a difference. Bush is rushing headlong towards war trying to outpace the growing anti-war movement before it becomes an insurmountable obstacle to his plans for war. MAKE YOUR PLANS NOW for the January 18, 2003 National March on Washington: No War on Iraq! Buses have been organized from over 150 cities already for the massive January 18, 2003, National March on Washington that will first rally on the National Mall between the White House and the U.S. Capitol (west side), and then proceed from the U.S. Capitol to the U.S. Navy Yard, a military installation in Southeast Washington DC that will supply and service the war and at which weapons of mass destruction are believed to be maintained.

In another warning sign of what lies ahead for all Americans regarding police-state abuse of power (thanks to sections of the post-September 11 Patriot Act approved by Congress and signed into law by President Bush), U.S. Intelligence intercepted North Carolinian Michael Moore's email -- likely believing it was written by independent film producer-icon (Bowling for Columbine) and author (Stupid White Men) Michael Moore. In other words, they got the wrong Michael Moore. The Michael Moore raided by the Secret Service last week is a 20-year war veteran who put his life on the line for his country during two separate tours of duty aboard the U.S.S. Paul Revere off the coast of Vietnam in 1971 and 1972 -- one of which was a highly dangerous mine-sweeping operation. Finding a few controversial albeit First Amendment-protected words in the Navy vet's email, the Intelligence agents apparently decided to kill two birds with one stone: 1) intimidate the former Vietnam veteran into allowing them to violate his personal privacy by performing a search of his home while knowing the story would reach the public -- thereby inculcating citizen fear of government power; and, 2) send a veiled message to fervent presidential-critic and celebrity Michael Moore to let him know what lies down the road for him should his high-profile and media-oriented presidential disdain persist. There are no reports yet as to whether Michael Moore, the film and book luminary, will join the Navy vet with his appellation to promulgate a legal inquiry into how various sections of the Patriot Act are abused by government officials in order to

[CTRL] Righteous Jewish Professors Support Israeli Divestment
-Caveat Lector- PATRICK HEALY, BOSTON GLOBE http://www.prorev.com/ The national movement to pressure universities to pull their investments from Israel has been battered this year by critics who call it divisive and anti-Semitic. But it has shown remarkable staying power in large part because of an unusual group of supporters: Jewish professors. Hundreds of college professors nationwide have signed petitions calling for divestment from Israel, among them several dozen Jewish professors who call their signatures an act of political conscience. As the fall semester draws to a close, many have found themselves - not always purposely - becoming spokesmen for a cause that has deeply split their campuses. I simply couldn't afford to sit back any longer, said Harvard psychology professor Elizabeth Spelke, whose family has roots in Israel, and who signed the petition to protest Israel's military crackdown on Palestinians. Modeled on an anti-apartheid campaign that led campuses to divest from South Africa in the 1980s, the petition criticizes Israel's actions in the occupied territories and calls on universities to sell any investments in Israel, and in companies that do business there. It has circulated at more than 50 campuses, including Harvard, MIT, Yale, and the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.

-Caveat Lector- this may be heavy for survivors Pope given priests `sex time bomb' warning 30 years ago by Roger Dobson and Maurice Chittenden in The Sunday Times - 12/23/02 "The present Pope was among several Catholic bishops warned in a secret report more than 30 years ago that the church faced a potential "psychosexual" time bomb in the priesthood. The report, which foreshadows the scandals over sexual abuse of children which have erupted in the church in recent years, was prepared for a synod of bishops at the Vatican in 1971. Its authors estimated that a quarter of clerics had psychiatric difficulties and most were emotionally immatureLawyers representing alleged victims of child abuse by priests in Britain and America are studying the unpublished report by Dr Conrad Baars, a Dutch-born Catholic psychiatrist from Minnesota, based on the records of 1,500 priests treated for mental problems. Baars reported that "psychosexual immaturity expressed in heterosexual or homosexual activity was encountered often. Virtually all of these priests were . . . suffering from a severe to moderate frustration neurosis". The report, The Role of the Church in the Causation, Treatment and Prevention of the Crisis in the Priesthood, estimated that less than 15% of all priests in western Europe and North America were emotionally fully developed. Of the rest, 20-25% had serious psychiatric difficulties that often showed themselves in alcoholism; 60-70% suffered from lesser degrees of emotional immaturity. Baars made 10 recommendations, including better vetting of applicants to the priesthood. None were implemented. http://www.oneinfour.org/archives/000239.html#000239 Head of Child Porn Ring Gets 30 Years By Mark Babineck Houston (AP) - A Texas man behind a worldwide e-mail ring that traded pornographic images of children, some as young as 18 months old, was sentenced to the maximum of 30 years in federal prison FridayBates pleaded guilty to trafficking in child pornography via computer.

He conducted most of his research at the Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute in Bethesda, Md. "We were looking at electrical activity in the brain and how to influence it," he says. Byrd, a specialist in medical engineering and bioeffects, funded small research projects, including a paper on vortex weapons by Obolensky. He conducted experiments on animals-and even on himself-to see if brain waves would move into sync with waves impinging on them from the outside. (he found that they would, but the effect was short lived.) By using very low frequency electromagnetic radiation-the waves way below radio frequencies on the electromagnetic spectrum-he found he could induce the brain to release behavior-regulating chemicals. "We could put animals into a stupor," he says, by hitting them with these frequencies. "we got chick brains-in vitro-to dump 80 percent of the natural opiods in their brains," Byrd says. He even ran a small project that used magnetic fields to cause certain brain cells in rats to release histamine. In humans, this would cause instant flulike symptoms and produce nausea. "These fields were extremely weak. They were undetectable," says Byrd. "The effects were nonlethal and reversible. You could disable a person temporarily," Byrd hypothesizes.

[CTRL] 51 Documents:Zionist Collaboration with the Nazis
-Caveat Lector- http://www.counterpunch.org/brenner1223.html December 23, 2002 51 Documents: Zionist Collaboration with the Nazis by LENNI BRENNER In 1983, Croom Helm Ltd. published my 1st book, Zionism in the Age of the Dictators. American writers don't expect favorable reviews from the London Times, but editorialist Edward Mortimer declared that "Brenner is able to cite numerous cases where Zionists collaborated with anti-Semitic regimes, including Hitler's." Still less could a Trotskyist dream of a review from Izvestia, the Soviet government gazette, but they hailed it. "During the world war, Brenner points out, Zionism showed its real meaning: for the sake of its ambitions, it sacrificed the blood of millions of Jews." Louis Rapoport, a failed Berkeley radical, denounced the book in the Jerusalem Post as "leftist babble." Nevertheless, he conceded, there were "very real charges that will continue to haunt" Zionism "until they are dealt with honestly." In 1987, Jim Allen, the celebrated British movie/TV writer, based Perdition, a stage play, on the book. When intense pressure on the Royal Court Theatre canceled production, we debated Sir Martin Gilbert, the Churchill family's private historian, and Stephen Roth, head of the British Zionist Federation, nationwide, prime-time on ITV. The London Review of Books said the Zionist scheme "made it one of the most famous plays of the decade." Indeed, unless the Queen was sick on the crapper, every politically or theatrically interested person in Britain watched us win, thanks to director Ken Loach's strategic instructions. Extraordinary world interest wasn't matched in America's media. Alex Cockburn championed the book in the Village Voice and in the Nation. But the Voice refused to review it. The Nation sent it out to someone, but, sorry, "he never sent in the review." Walter Laqueur had to bark in the Zionist New Republic after their Perdition debacle: "Some of Brenner's book is invented, some is exaggerated or drawn out of context." Yet even he admits that "German Zionists did not fully understand the meaning of Hitler when he came to power in 1933. Some of their comments and declarations make embarrassing reading 50 years later." Despite Zionism's best efforts, over 5,000 copies sold in 18 years before being put on the web: www.marxists.de/middleast/brenner/index.htm Then Lyle Stuart of Barricade Books discovered that a friend, a Zionist propagandist, had never read the complete proposal of the "Stern Gang," 1940s Zionist terrorists, to go to war on Hitler's side. 51 Documents was born. Now Americans and others can read the evidence and judge for themselves. There are six selections re Zionism's relationship to anti-Semitism and racism prior to Hitler. The 51 documents, including 35 letters, memos, articles, and reports by Zionists, are from the Hitler era and after. Seven are by Nazis, most notably Eichmann's memoir, written in Argentina, on Hungarian collaborator RAzso Kasztner. Five of the six and 43 of the 51 are complete. The rest are extensive excerpts from important reports. There are four first-time full translations of articles from German, Hebrew, Italian and Russian. Zionism convicts itself. On June 21, 1933, the German Zionist Federation sent a secret memorandum to the Nazis: "Zionism has no illusions about the difficulty of the Jewish condition, which consists above all in an abnormal occupational pattern and in the fault of an intellectual and moral posture not rooted in one's own tradition. Zionism recognized decades ago that as a result of the assimilationist trend, symptoms of deterioration were bound to appear, which it seeks to overcome by carrying out its challenge to transform Jewish life completely. "It is our opinion that an answer to the Jewish question truly satisfying to the national state can be brought about only with the collaboration of the Jewish movement that aims at a social, cultural and moral renewal of Jewry--indeed, that such a national renewal must first create the decisive social and spiritual premises for all solutions. "Zionism believes that a rebirth of national life, such as is occurring in German life through adhesion to Christian and national values, must also take place in the Jewish national group. For the Jew, too, origin, religion, community of fate and group consciousness must be of decisive significance in the shaping of his life. This means that the egotistic individualism which arose in the liberal era must be overcome by public spiritedness and by willingness to accept responsibility." By 1936, the Post ran a news flash, "German Zionists Seek Recognition": "A bold demand that the German Zionist Federation be given recognition by the Government as the only instrument for the exclusive control of German Jewish life was made by the Executive of that body in a proclamation today. All German Jewish organizations, it was declared, should be dominated by the Zionist spirit." Zionist factions

[CTRL] Not All Iraq Claims Backed by Evidence
-Caveat Lector- http://abcnews.go.com/wire/World/ap20021222_711.html Not All Iraq Claims Backed by Evidence Not All Statements Coming From Bush Administration in Case Against Iraq Are Backed By Evidence The Associated Press WASHINGTON Dec. 22 â Today's claims about Iraq could become tomorrow's call to arms. But not all the statements coming from the Bush administration have been supported by evidence, and some that haven't are central to the question of whether Americans should go to war. The overarching claim, that Iraq possesses weapons of mass destruction, may have the weight of probability behind it, but it has yet to be backed by proof shared with the public. Behind that is a cast of supporting allegations, some veering off into murky territory. Human rights monitors, for example, say it is news to them that when Iraqi soldiers captured by Iran in the 1980s returned from that war, President Saddam Hussein ordered their ears cut off, as the Pentagon stated. When President Bush flatly asserted about Saddam, "He possesses the most deadly arms of our age," he seemed to ignore the consensus that Iraq does not have the weapons of Armageddon nuclear ones however actively it may be pursuing them. A decade ago, Americans preparing for their first war against Iraq were shocked when a Kuwaiti girl, testifying to Congress, said she saw Iraqi soldiers occupying her country take infants off of their respirators and let them die. The story quickly became part of the first President Bush's campaign to win public support for the war. "Babies pulled from incubators and scattered like firewood across the floor," he said. Only after the war did the story fall apart and the witness' true identity the daughter of Kuwait's ambassador to the United States become known. With that in mind, Joe Stork, a Middle East monitor for Human Rights Watch, urged the government not to stretch its claims of Iraqi atrocities, because doing so can undermine confidence in carefully documented reports of genuine abuses. "I do think the human rights abuses in Iraq are systematic and serious," said Stork, whose group investigates mistreatment of citizens worldwide. "This is one of the worst governments in the world. There is absolutely no need to exaggerate." On the crucial question of Iraqi weapons, knowledge of Saddam's past chemical and biological stockpiles, combined with shadowy actions since the world last had a good look around there, leads many analysts to think he is capable of causing huge destruction now. But U.N. inspectors are still inspecting, some suspicions remain suppositions, and U.S. allies are waiting for a clincher. "So far the inspectors have found nothing, and the U.S. has produced nothing," said Phyllis Bennis, a Middle East analyst for the liberal Institute for Policy Studies in Washington. "I'm not prepared to support a war on spec." Other analysts put more weight behind U.S. allegations that Iraq has regenerated its biological weapons capabilities and may have chemical weapons, which it used in the past, as well. But the indictment offered by Washington last week, accusing Iraq of being in "material breach" of the U.N. disarmament resolution, rests not on what has been uncovered in the inspections but, in large measure, on what was omitted in Iraq's report on its weapons inventory. Among the administration's points: Satellites have picked up on construction of an unknown nature at previously bombed weapons sites. Iraq has offered no proof that it has destroyed a long list of highly destructive weapons it acknowledged having had before. Iraq has imported suspicious materials that could advance its attempts to develop nuclear weapons. On other fronts, U.S. officials have made several charges without offering support in the past few weeks. For example, intelligence officials said Iraq has an audacious plan to destroy its own food sources, power supplies and oil fields, and blame America for it, if war against U.S. forces does not go well all for the purpose of turning international opinion against Washington. They refused to describe their evidence. Government sources also said, in leaked comments, that Islamic extremists affiliated with the al-Qaida network might have taken possession of the deadly chemical weapon VX while in Iraq. The claim weakened under examination. U.S. officials have tried before to establish a connection between Iraq and the terrorist network that attacked America. In this case, Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld would not talk about any Iraq-terrorist VX transaction but said: "I have seen other information over a period of time that suggests that could be happening." But a variety of counterterror and defense officials said later they had no credible evidence that Iraq supplied the nerve agent to al-Qaida operatives. Questions also have been raised about claims made in U.S. radio broadcasts to Iraqi soldiers and citizens. One was the ear-cutting claim.

[CTRL] Many Held at Guantanamo Not Likely Terrorists
-Caveat Lector- http://www.latimes.com/la-na-gitmo22dec22011424,0,4293848.story Many Held at Guantanamo Not Likely Terrorists Dozens of detainees pose no real threat, but U.S. policies make it nearly impossible to get names off lists. There's also fear of freeing '21st hijacker.' By Greg Miller, Times Staff Writer WASHINGTON -- The United States is holding dozens of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay who have no meaningful connection to Al Qaeda or the Taliban, and were sent to the maximum-security facility over the objections of intelligence officers in Afghanistan who had recommended them for release, according to military sources with direct knowledge of the matter. At least 59 detainees -- nearly 10% of the prison population at the U.S. Navy base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba -- were deemed to be of no intelligence value after repeated interrogations in Afghanistan. All were placed on "recommended for repatriation" lists well before they were transferred to Guantanamo Bay, a facility intended to hold the most hardened terrorists and Taliban suspects. Dozens of the detainees are Afghan and Pakistani nationals described in classified intelligence reports as farmers, taxi drivers, cobblers and laborers. Some were low-level fighters conscripted by the Taliban in the weeks before the collapse of the ruling Afghan regime. None of the 59 met U.S. screening criteria for determining which prisoners should be sent to Guantanamo Bay, military sources said. But all were transferred anyway, sources said, for reasons that continue to baffle and frustrate intelligence officers nearly a year after the first group of detainees arrived at the facility. "There are a lot of guilty [people] in there," said one officer, "but there's a lot of farmers in there too." The sources' accounts point to a previously undisclosed struggle within the military over the handling of the detainees. Even senior commanders were said to be troubled by the problems. Maj. Gen. Michael E. Dunlavey, the operational commander at Guantanamo Bay until October, traveled to Afghanistan in the spring to complain that too many "Mickey Mouse" detainees were being sent to the already crowded facility, sources said. One senior Army officer described Dunlavey's visit as a "fact-finding" mission. But another who met with Dunlavey said the general's purpose was more direct: "He came over to chew us out," the officer said. Dunlavey, an Army reservist, declined to comment. The sources blamed a host of problems, including flawed screening guidelines, policies that made it almost impossible to take prisoners off Guantanamo flight manifests and a pervasive fear of letting a valuable prisoner go free by mistake. "No one wanted to be the guy who released the 21st hijacker," one officer said. While that concern remains a legitimate one, the fact that dozens of the detainees are still in custody a year or more after their capture has become a source of deep concern to military officers engaged in the war on terrorism around the globe. Many fear that detaining innocents, and providing no legal mechanism for appeal, can only breed distrust and animosity toward the U.S. -- not only in the home countries and governments of the prisoners but also among the inmates. "We're basically condemning these guys to long-term imprisonment," said a military official who was a senior interrogator at Guantanamo Bay. "If they weren't terrorists before, they certainly could be now." Moreover, he said, even amid the tight security there is significant indoctrination of prisoners by radical Islamists among them. The Afghan and Pakistani governments have raised the issue with Washington. A Pakistani embassy official, who declined to be identified, said his government is convinced that many of the 58 Pakistanis known to be in custody "probably joined the Taliban but didn't know how to spell Al Qaeda." Even some prisoners red-flagged by the screening guidelines were clearly of no intelligence value and should not have been sent, military intelligence sources said. One prisoner was transferred because he was Arab by birth and had once fought for the Taliban, thereby meeting two key screening criteria. But before the war he had sustained such a massive head injury that he could utter little more than his name and was known by interrogators at Guantanamo Bay as "half-head Bob." "He had basically had a combat lobotomy," the interrogator said. "Every [intelligence report] on him from Afghanistan said, 'No value, no value, don't send him.' " Others were grabbed by Pakistani soldiers patrolling the Afghan border who collected bounties for prisoners, sources said. One such prisoner was captured at a restaurant near the border where he claimed to have lived and worked for 20 years. "He had the mental capacity to put flatbread in an oven and that was the extent of his intellect," the interrogator said. "He never got trained on a rifle, never got pressed into service. But he was Arab by
[CTRL] Zionism The Holocaust
-Caveat Lector- http://www.cactus48.com/holocaust.html Zionism and the Holocaust The U.N. decisions to partition Palestine and then to grant admission to the state of Israel were made, on one level, as an emotional response to the horrors of the Holocaust, Under more normal circumstances, the compelling claims to sovereignty of the Arab majority would have prevailed. This reaction of guilt on the part of the Western allies was understandable, but that doesn't mean the Palestinians should have to pay for crimes committed by others -- a classic example of two wrongs not making a right. The Holocaust is often used as the final argument in favor of Zionism, but is this connection justified? There are several aspects to consider in answering that question honestly. First, we will examine the historical record of what the Zionist movement actually did to help save European Jewry from the Nazis. Shamir proposes an alliance with the Nazis "As late as 1941, the Zionist group LEHI, one of whose leaders, Yitzhak Shamir, was later to become a prime minister of Israel, approached the Nazis, using the name of its parent organization, the Irgun(NMO)..[The proposal stated:] 'The establishment of the historical Jewish state on a national and totalitarian Pd bound by a treaty with the German Reich would be in the interests of strengthening the future German nation of power in the Near East...The NMO in Palestine offers to take an active part in the war on Germany's side'...The Nazis rejected this proposal for an alliance because, it is reported, they considered LEHI's military power 'negligible.' " Allan Brownfield in "The Washington Report on Middle Eastern Affairs", July/August 1998. Wasn't the main goal of Zionism to save Jews from the Holocaust? "In 1938 a thirty-one nation conference was held in Evian, France, on resettlement of the victims of Nazism. The World Zionist Organization refused to participate, fearing that resettlement of Jews in other states would reduce the number available for Palestine." John Quigley, "Palestine and Israel: A Challenge to Justice." Main goal of Zionism - continued "It was summed up in the meeting [of the Jewish Agency's Executive on June 26, 1938] that the Zionist thing to do 'is belittle the [Evian] Conference as far as possible and to cause it to decide nothing...We are particularly worried that it would move Jewish organizations to collect large sums of money for aid to Jewish refugees, and these collections could interfere with our collection efforts'...Ben-Gurion's statement at the same meeting: 'No rationalization can turn the conference from a harmful to a useful one. What can and should be done is to limit the damage as far as possible.'" Israeli author Boas Evron, "Jewish State or Israeli Nation?" Main goal of Zionism - continued "[Ben-Gurion stated] 'If I knew that it was possible to save all the children of Germany by transporting them to England, but only half of them by transporting them to Palestine, I would choose the second - because we face not only the reckoning of those children, but the historical reckoning of the Jewish people.' In the wake of the Kristallnacht pogroms, Ben-Gurion commented that 'the human conscience' might bring various countries to open their doors to Jewish refugees from Germany. He saw this as a threat and warned: 'Zionism is in danger.'" Israeli historian, Tom Segev, "The Seventh Million." Main goal of Zionism-continued "Even David Ben-Gurion's sympathetic biographer acknowledges that Ben-Gurion did nothing practical for rescue, devoting his energies to post-war prospects. He delegated rescue work to Yitzak Gruenbaum, who [stated]...'They will say that I am anti-Semitic, that I don't want to save the Exile, that I don't have a varm Yiddish hartz...Let them say what they want. I will not demand that the Jewish Agency allocate a sum of 300,000 or 100,000 pounds sterling to help European Jewry. And I think that whoever demands such things is performing an anti-Zionist act.' "Zionists in America...took the same position. At a May 1943 meeting of the American Emergency Committee for Zionist Affairs, Nahum Goldmann argued, 'If a drive is opened against the White Paper (the British policy of restricting Jewish immigrants to Palestine) the mass meetings of protest against the murder of European Jewry will have to be dropped. We do not have sufficient manpower for both campaigns.'" Peter Novick, "The Holocaust in American Life." Main goal of Zionism - continued "The Zionist movement...interfered with and hindered other organizations, Jewish and non-Jewish, whenever it imagined that their activity, political or humanitarian, was at variance with Zionist aims or in competition with them, even when these might be helpful to Jews, even when it was a question of life and death...Beit Zvi documents the Zionist leadership's indifference to saving Jews from the Nazi menace except in cases in which the Jews could be brought to

[CTRL] Where's The Smoking Gun? Bush Needs To Provide The Proof Now!
-Caveat Lector- WHERE'S THE SMOKING GUN? http://www.etherzone.com/2002/lebo122402.shtml BUSH NEEDS TO PROVIDE THE PROOF NOW! By: John LeBoutillier Behind all the rhetoric at the United Nations â and in London and DC, too â there still remains one unanswered question: What is the smoking gun that unleashes the war against Saddam Hussein? Supposedly âmissingâ documents or âgapsâ in the 12,000 page Declaration are not enough to launch a war. After all, how do you prove a negative? What is needed is that one irrefutable piece of evidence that incontrovertibly proves Saddam is lying about having either chemical, biological or nuclear weapons. After all, this entire crisis has been created on the pretense that Saddam has these weapons â and is lying about that fact. OK, so how to we prove that he is lying? 1) UNMOVIC â the weapons inspectors â actually find some of these now-denied weapons. (Highly unlikely.) 2) A defector reveals a secret location and Iraqi forces deny the inspectors access. (Possible â and that would be sufficient to trigger a war.) 3) An Iraqi scientist â taken with his family out of Iraq for interrogation â reveals the truth about the WMD program. (The problem with this scenario is that Saddam isnât going to let the real scientists leave â or else he will âchangeâ their families and send the wrong family out, thus holding hostage the true wife and kids. Debka.com â a good source of Israeli intelligence â reports that Saddam has already executed âtalkativeâ scientists and locked up others and their families is âspecial compoundsâ â just to keep those scientists whom the UN wants to talk to from talking. Saddam has apparently also prepared false death certificates for some scientists so that when the UN asks for them, they will be told, âOh..him?â¦He died two years ago.â) The bottom line is simple: Saddam is in control of the information inside Iraq about where he has stashed his weapons of mass destruction. Finding them through the inspections process â or even through this Scientist Removal Project â is going to be very unlikely. The one way to break this seemingly hopeless logjam is for American or British intelligence to reveal â if they have it - irrefutable proof of the WMD and where they are right now. Yesterday, Hans Blix complained that so far neither DC nor London has provided this âsmoking gunâ to the UN. It could be that we are waiting for the right time to reveal this war-instigating piece of evidence. Or, could it be that we donât have this information? After all the bluster and threats by DC about the âthreat from Baghdadâ â denied, by the way, by Bushâs own DCI George Tenet â could it be that we simply do not have the proof of Saddamâs Weapons of Mass Destruction? If we do not have it â and yet got this whole multi-billion-dollar pre-war campaign activated on the claim that we knew he had these WMD â then it is an utter disgrace that we canât prove it. If that is the case, the CIA and all our intelligence agencies â which cost the American taxpayer a whopping $60 billion per year â ought to be disgraced for what they have done â or not done. Still, letâs wait and see. Soon either Saddam or our intelligence agencies will be forced to put up or shut up.

[CTRL] Mossad's Subliminal Mind Control
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/steveseymour/subliminalsuggestion/tanks.html Mossad's Subliminal Mind Control "kee betachbulot ta'ase lecha milchama" Copyright Joe Vialls, 22 August 2001 23 December 2002 As an unprecedented and illegal massed attack on Iraq approaches, thousands of web sites and pages are being hacked and removed from the Internet, especially those carrying scientific data which might in later years assist members of the public to parade various western politicians, bureaucrats and “media personalities’ in front of war crimes tribunals. This Internet “pruning” is deemed essential in the run-up to the new American carnage in Iraq, itself aimed solely at capturing oil-rich Muslim sovereign nations in the Middle East, for their new Zionist “owners” .in downtown New York and Tel Aviv. This report was first posted on the Internet in late 2001 to explain the most foul Mossad subliminal exercise in modern history, which induced millions of viewers world wide to believe that nearly half a million American, British and Australian servicemen fought the Gulf War for Israel. Then two weeks ago it fell victim to the Internet “Purge”, being suddenly “removed” from the web along with 120 other detailed reports on atrocities by Israel in general, and by the Mossad in particular. Here it is again in all its essentials, edited only slightly to take into account the forth- coming needless sacrifice of American, British and Australian lives. Back in 1990-1991, tens of millions of television viewers were confronted by thousands of images of American battle tanks thundering across the open desert in hot pursuit of the “Evil Tyrant” Saddam Hussein. They were enormously influential images, showing the most powerful army on earth striking repeated massive blows at the heart of Islam. The hearts of retired military viewers fluttered with pride, and psychiatrists everywhere dribbled down their shirtfronts at the phallic implications of those long 120-mm gun barrels poking out of the turrets. Regardless of who the viewers actually were, their collective conscious minds all saw the same thing: massed firepower proving forever that America was the only remaining super power on earth, America was the world’s policeman, and anyone failing to carry out American orders with alacrity would be utterly destroyed. Unfortunately it was all a lie, and what the conscious mind perceived was not at all what the subconscious mind believed. Tricked by advanced subliminal techniques on television, millions of subconscious minds were un-wittingly coerced into believing that Israel was the only remaining super power on earth, Israel was the world’s policeman, and anyone failing to carry out Israel’s orders with alacrity would be utterly destroyed. Before explaining exactly how this was done, it is first necessary to go backwards in time, to explain how subliminal suggestion was first used to manipulate and change human thought and behavior. Most readers have heard of basic subliminal suggestion, where an image is flashed on a movie or television screen so quickly that only the subconscious mind has time to see it. The technique was rife in the sixties, effectively culminating in an experimental version of the movie “Picnic” which was interlaced with subliminal messages at 1/3000th second every five seconds, alternately suggesting “Drink Coco Cola”, and “Hungry? Eat Popcorn” Due to the embedded subliminal messages, Coke sales at the experimental movie house in Fort Lee, New Jersey, rose by a staggering 57.7 percent and popcorn sales rose by 18.1 percent. The frightening effectiveness of subliminal suggestion was thus proved scientifically, and American lawmakers promptly outlawed the techniques. After all, such techniques might be used by “The Commies” and had to be stopped to protect national security! Legally thwarted in their ambition of directing human thought by use of subliminal input that could be detected by government inspectors, shrinks and psychologists alike searched the darkest recesses of their minds to find a way around the law. This turned out to be easier than they initially thought, using a new technique known as “in-screen subliminal”. Basically what this means is that an object is placed in full view of the movie or television audience, but at the edge of their peripheral vision where the conscious mind is not focused. A good example of this might be a Formula One race with cars rocketing around the track at 200 m.p.h. The conscious mind peers intently at the cars as they slam on the brakes for a tricky corner, and completely misses an advertising logo near the same corner reading “Alaska Cool Beer is the Best”. The subconscious mind misses nothing however, and the chances are that at some time in the future if confronted by this and other competitive products in a bar, you’ll

Gunson's reports in the Miami Herald, the St. Petersburg Times, MSNBC (online only), the Independent of London, and his statements made this month on NPR and WAMU radio, have been among the most knowingly false and simulating reports on The Strike That Wasn't in Venezuela during almost all of December 2002. We asked Gunson to clarify his relationship with partisan pro-coup political consultant in Venezuela Eric Ekvall. He wrote us back - his response is published uncensored and in full, as we offered - but he would not answer that question. A more serious question we asked him was about his sole uncorroborated source last April 11th for his claim that sniper assassinations on that day - a claim that was used to justify a coup d'etat - Eurídice Ledezma, a pro-coup Venezuelan journalist and defender of Dictator-for-a-Day Pedro Carmona whom she calls, simply, Pedro. We asked Gunson why he did not disclose what he has said to others and what is reportedly alluded to in at least one book: That Ledezma was his former girlfriend. We don't care who his friends are, but every basic code of journalist ethics requires that we disclose our relationships with the people we report on. He did not do that in April, and now, again, in December, he has refused the opportunity to come clean. That quote - the foundation of a bloody coup in which 50 political activists were assassinated, and some tortured, by the regime of Carmona - had profound consequences for the history of América, and for human life. We repeat our call upon freelance correspondent Phil Gunson to disclose the true facts he should have disclosed last April. We believe that if he had disclosed those facts at the time, bloodshed might have been avoided. You can read our full report, the text of our Open Letter and Questions to Phil Gunson, and the full uncensored texts of letters that Gunson and Ekvall sent to us in recent days: A Brit Reporters Undisclosed Venezuela Conflicts Phil Gunson and Eric Ekvall Are Upset with Narco News By Al Giordano With Unabridged Letters from Phil Gunson and Eric Ekvall http://www.narconews.com/ The language used by both Gunson and Ekvall in their letters to us is also so similar as to be interesting, too.

Everyone should read and re-read this.And let's not forget that Hitler also gave front line soldiers amphetamines to help them feel brave and invincible, something our government has been doing with the pilots on bombing runs.-Jonathan Inskeep (Crofton, MD) QUOTABLE: As said by the Psy-Ops henchman for Hitler, who made the Big Lie big enough, bold enough and told enough... "The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the State." - Dr. Joseph M. Goebbels EXCERPT:"The reality is that the American people, as individuals, have lost their courage. The government prefers it that way, as a fearful people are easier to rule than a courageous one. "America has escaped the clutches of a dictatorship thus far only through the efforts of those citizens who, unlike the Germans of the 1930s, have the moral courage to stand up and point out where the government is lying to the people." --article follows: THE PSYCHOLOGY BEHIND MASS SUBSERVIENCE TO TYRANNYAnd The Consequent Rise of the Fourth ReichFrom Christos Lightweaver, www.heartcom.org/bio.htm "To sin by silence when they should protest makes cowards of men." -Abraham LincolnEveryone likes to say, "Hitler did this," and "Hitler did that." But the truth is Hitler did very little. He was a world class tyrant, but the evil actually done by the Third Reich, from the death camps to WWII, was all done by German citizens who were afraid to question if what they were told by their government was the truth or not, and who, because they did not want to admit to themselves that they were afraid to question the government, refused to see the truth behind the Reichstag Fire, refused to see the invasion by Poland was a staged fake, and followed Hitler into national disaster.The German people of the late 1930s imagined themselves to be brave. They saw themselves as the heroic Germans depicted by the Wagnerian Operas, the descendants of the fierce Germanic warriors who had hunted wild boar with nothing but spears and who had defeated three of Rome's mightiest legions in the Tuetenberg Forest.But in truth, by the 1930s, the German people had become civilized and tamed, culturally obsessed with fine details in both science and society. Their self-image of bravery was both salve and slavery. Germans were required to behave as if they were brave, even when they were not.It's easy to look back and realize what a jerk Hitler was. But at the time, Hitler looked pretty good to the German people, with the help of the media. He was TIME Magazine's Man of the Year in 1938. The German people assumed they were safe from a tyrant. They lived in a Republic, after all, with strict laws regarding what the government could, and more importantly, could not do. Their leader was a devoutly religious man, and had even sung with the boy's choir of a monastery in his youth.The reality was that the German people, as individuals, had lost their courage.

Consequently, many of them adopted Synarchist principles. In fact, Saint-Yves' ideas transformed the esoteric underground of Europe, particularly France. Some of the greatest figures in subsequent occult history were devotees of Saint-Yves, which is not surprising because occultists, with their love of hierarchy, tend to be naturally totalitarian and unegalitarian." THE RISE OF THE ROUGH BEAST (Adapted from a lecture by LYNN PICKNETT and CLIVE PRINCE at the Saunière Society Symposium, Conway Hall, London on 19 September 1999) As we approach the Millennium, there is a growing sense of expectancy that some event, or revelation, will change the world forever. For fundamentalist Christians it is the Second Coming - but you don't have to be a fundamentalist Christian to share the belief that the world is soon going to change, and change radically. The one thing that many of these expectations have in common is the sense that the past is catching up with us; that the transformation of our future will, in some way, be connected to the ancient past. Ancient sites around the world are the focus of 'Millennium Fever' but none more so than those of Egypt, and particularly the Giza Plateau. Many believe that some revelation connected with the Great Pyramid, or with the Sphinx, will be the trigger for a New Age. Such expectancy, such hope, such belief is very, very potent. It is wide open for exploitation: not just for financial gain, but for those who want to try to change the way we think. And that is what we believe is happening. Our book, The Stargate Conspiracy, describes a 50-year-long plot to create, and then exploit, expectations about ancient Egypt as part of what amounts to a programme of social engineering. It is a very high-level plot that, essentially, aims to hijack the very real mysteries of ancient Egypt in order to push other quasi-religious and even political ideas. Instrumental in this plot are the psychological warfare units of intelligence agencies. At the centre of the conspiracy is the manipulation of beliefs about the origins and history of human civilisation, in particular beliefs about the existence of an advanced civilisation in the ancient past and its influence on the earliest known historical civilisations, primarily that of Egypt. But the conspiracy uses ideas and concepts that have been around for quite a long time in the occult world. Our book explores the origins of those ideas, and shows how in recent years, they been pushed at the mainstream public. In brief, ideas about the origins and history of human civilisation that were developed in occult circles in the 19th century are now being promoted to the public as if they have been confirmed by recent research. The important point is that these ideas were originally developed to support specific systems of belief or doctrines - and some of those doctrines were, to say the least, highly questionable and often downright dangerous. In the last few years we have seen a wave of new books about ancient Egypt that have captured the imaginations of millions of readers worldwide. The best-known names in this 'Alternative Egypt' field are Graham Hancock, Robert Bauval, and John Anthony West, and their works have been instrumental in arousing
[CTRL] Party Government
-Caveat Lector- Party Government by Ted Lang John Adams recognized early in this country's history the corruption of purpose that results when personal motives and ambitions are superimposed upon what is considered as a generally beneficial core of organizational motives. The resultant political intrigue we now accept as the norm in American politics nullifies all allusions to our nation as being one governed by a set of laws. Politics has not only subverted our purpose, the preservation and protection of individual human freedom intended by God, but has progressed to where public recognition of His beneficence is now judged as criminal. We are no longer a nation with constitutionally legitimized government, but a nation based upon a 'living constitution' that can be changed at will by the party and the politician currently in power. This was precisely the same legitimization employed by Adolf Hitler, who used constitutional and national legitimacy to subvert the legal entity of government and convert it to the subservient, destructive monster of the political party in power. It is an arrangement similar to that of the former Soviet Union. Both tyrannical, authoritarian regimes were sustained by political party domination. Both dictatorships were examples of party government. Government service at the highest levels was intended by our Founders to be accessible to all citizens, with the highest office available to those born on American soil. This accentuates our founding principles, which ensure the propriety of American purpose as opposed to a dispersion of national sovereignty through politically motivated legislative arrangements deferential to aliens, legalized or otherwise, domiciled in Our Land. Hitler's Nazi Party was nationalized socialism; Stalin's Communist Party typified international socialism. Their nations' governments were of, by, and for their party. Deference to the rights of citizens was non-existent. There is for all intents and purposes little difference between human organization as characterized by a political party or the government of a state or a nation. There is an ultimate head over an array of horizontally integrated offices and sub-offices comprising a vertically subordinate chain of command as to purpose and operation through the leader. Their organizational structure is dependent upon the mission and goals of the organization, and designed to most effectively address these. All corporate, charitable, religious and political organizations are similarly structured with their mission and purpose in mind. This has never been the case with respect to the design and purpose of American government. Our Founders designed American government using a 'destructuring' design to ensure that a unanimity of purpose, or a commandeering usurpation by either elected representatives of the people, bureaucrats, or politicians of every strain, could never rob or supplant the individual of his God-given freedom to chose his path in life. And to that end, the Constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights was designed and put into place. It is this document that represents Mankind's greatest design and dedication to individual freedom. When taken together, the sovereignty of the individual American citizen is paramount. The sovereignty of either our government or our two main political parties is not. Clearly, in our time, both political parties and American government have totally subverted and virtually abolished our freedom protections under the constitutional, decentralized, limited government specifically structured for this purpose. When individual sovereignty takes precedence over political parties and government, the right of the people, via each singular, separate, individual citizen to own and carry firearms to protect both free speech and assembly, becomes obvious. This God-given right is guaranteed to Americans recognizing precisely the desire by big government and dominating political parties to silence opposition - and silencing will take the form of government force, whether initiated by government officials or political parties. It is becoming increasingly obvious, that we have reached a point where each and every American must assess both their government and their political party, and recognize how dangerously far we've wandered from our purpose. The time to reflect is now! *** Political parties totally control government officials, legislatures, and elected chief executives, focusing the power of government on their party's objectives. Such party objectives are usually foreign to those constitutionally intended for government, and party government rarely serves the interests of the electorate. Behind-the-scenes power brokers manipulating political parties are virtually never on a political level that equates or is answerable to the average American voter. Yet the rich and powerful controllers manipulate
[CTRL] Dec. 12, 2002 Was A Bleak Day
-Caveat Lector- It's the End of the Church as We Know It [...and I Don't Feel Fine.] by Douglas Newman Am I the only person outraged by this? Future generations will look back on December 12, 2002 As A Bleak Day In The History of Christianity in America. On this day, President Bush signed an executive order allowing churches and other religious organizations to compete for federal funds for charitable purposes. This is a horrendously bad thing for a variety of reasons. To begin with, this is an executive order. There is no constitutional basis for the president to rule in such a fashion. Bush is a president. He is not a king or a dictator. Presidents do not make the rules. It does not matter if you like the president. It does not matter if you like his intentions. The executive branch may only carry out laws. The legislative branch must make them first. Conservatives become indignant when liberal judges legislate from the bench. Our freedom is similarly threatened when presidents legislate from the Oval Office. Just because presidents have been issuing executive orders for decades does not make it right. Kings and dictators rule by executive order. Presidents of constitutional republics restrain themselves from acting in such a manner. But then we stopped being a constitutional republic nine decades ago. Bush's rationale for issuing this executive order was that he had difficulty getting his Faith Based Initiative through Congress. Well la-de-da. Is this how it will be from now on? Whenever a president does not get his agenda through Congress, will he just implement it by executive order? What precedent does this set for a future president, who is loved by secular folks and despised by Christians, when he wants to push an agenda that is not popular with Christians? Why do we even bother with a legislative and judicial branch? In the words of Clinton PR flak Paul Begala, Stroke of the pen, law of the land. Kinda cool. There was a time when conservatives hated the welfare state. But those days are long gone. Today, they praise its expansion. Compassionate conservatism is just another name for Clintonian socialism. Jay Sekulow of the American Center for Law and Justice hails the order as removing barriers that discriminated against churches that compete with secular organizations for federal funds. There is nothing Christian about the welfare state. Its very existence violates the Eighth and Tenth Commandments, which forbid theft and envy. II Thessalonians 3:10 says that if you don't work, you don't eat. When churches take taxpayer funds, it further violates Scripture. II Corinthians 9:7 says that God wants a joyous giver, not one who gives out of compulsion. Taxation is compulsory. It is theft. You either pay your taxes or you go to jail. There is nothing compassionate about the welfare state. Be honest: do you pay your taxes out of compassion or out of threat of jail? This is strictly my personal opinion, but I believe we have lost a lot of old-fashioned Christian compassion for the poor because so many of us are taxed into the pavement to support the welfare state. On the receiving end, so many people have their hand out thinking someone else owes them a living that many of us ignore legitimate suffering. But doesn't the Constitution delegate to Congress the power to provide for the general welfare of the United States? Yes it does. [1] However, the Article I, Section 8 spells out in detail what 'general Welfare' means. It speaks of things like coining money, a post office, courts, copyrights, weights and measures and so forth. It says nothing about massive transfers of wealth from producers to non-producers. The Tenth Amendment forbids Uncle Sam from engaging in any activity not authorized here. Federal aid always results in federal control. [2] Making churches eligible to participate in federal welfare programs will poison them. This is not speculation. It would be instructive to look at the history of federal aid in other areas. When Congress launched aid to college and university students, everyone was assured that this money would not lead to federal control of higher education. Before long, colleges and universities learned that, in order to keep receiving this aid, they would have to comply with federal affirmative action regulations, racial hiring quotas, and numerous other requirements. Any university, corporation, or other organization receiving federal monies or contracting with the federal government must now comply with an endless labyrinth of federal regulations on everything from racial hiring quotas to drug testing. For states to receive federal funding for education, highways, and numerous other purposes, they must likewise surrender a measure of their autonomy. Can you imagine your church being faced with the choice of having to perform homosexual marriages or otherwise losing federal subsidies? Can you imagine having
Re: [CTRL] Israelis Execute 11 year old Palestinian Girl Terrorist
-Caveat Lector- My point remains the same - every time you choose to show only part of something, you are displaying an opinion. The facts stated in the quote were the facts that I sought report. The whole article reported other incidents and events. The other incidents or events do not change the reality of that part of the article I quoted. My point was not about the article, but about you. The article speaks for itself. Or it would if it was allowed to remain whole - as it was presented it only speaks for you. You make no sense. The article was referenced for anyone to read in its entirety. I chose to quote a portion of the article. I did not purport to reproduce the whole article. Obviously that portion I quoted was the most important from my perspective. AS to your personal attacks and insults - they roll off me as I never enter a battle of wits with the unarmed. I don't consider any of my comments personal attacks. I would love for you point out one place where I rationalized. Your rationalization was obvious from the fact that you thought it somehow unfair of me not to also quote other incidents where Israelis were victimized. As I pointed out, I do not consider the Israeli and Palestinian situations as morally equivalent. One is a rich powerful militaristic state that seeks to oppress and displace an entire people. The other entity is stateless, poor and has no military and seeks to prevent its destruction by an occupying colonialist power. You apparently consider the murder of an 11 year old Palestinian girl somehow not important as a solitary story but requires 'context' by reporting Israeli deaths.

The other entity is stateless, poor and has no military and seeks to prevent its destruction by an occupying colonialist power. Morals? You keep bring these things up, but the rabid fanatics on all sides of this conflict have used all the morals up, and you can't have any because they are still using them. Morals? Both sides have committed evil atrocious acts. Again I state ( I know it's hard for this one to get through)- there is no moral high ground to be had from any side here. You apparently consider the murder of an 11 year old Palestinian girl somehow not important as a solitary story but requires 'context' by reporting Israeli deaths. I see value in the story of the girl's death standing alone since I consider that story symbolic of the Israeli - Palestinian tragedy. I find the story tragic. I find it of great import. It saddens me more than you can imagine. If the shooters think they were behaving as good Jews they were wrong. Completely and totally. Of course if they thought they were behaving like good Muslims, they were also totally and completely wrong. In fact, and in deed, if they think they were acting as good human beings they were wrong. Completely and totally. I also found the story, in the same article, about the rabbi, who now has 6 fatherless children tragic. So I posted it. Not because the story was symbolic of the conflict. Because it was actual flesh and blood. (If I wanted symbolic I could have posted the part about the gift wrapped shrapnel surprise) Maybe there is a rule that 2 people can't post information from the same article. I must have missed it.

Box 730 Leesburg, VA 20178 Call Toll Free: 1-800-929-7566 On the Web: http://www.larouchein2004.com LaRouche Warns of SharonWarPlans Dec. 22, 2002Democratic Presidential pre-candidate Lyndon LaRouche issued a stern warning on Dec.20, 2002, that Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon may attempt to provoke a near-term Middle East war, as a means of securing his reelection on Jan. 28, 2003. LaRouche stated that Sharon is desperate to prevent the breakout of peace in the region, and could easily orchestrate a mega-terrorist incident or some other Gulf of Tonkin-type provocation to justify an Israeli military attack against neighboring Syria or Lebanon, or against Iraq. There are credible reports, from sources inside Israel, that Sharon is conferring with Defense Minister Mofaz and IDF Chief of Staff Ya'alon, on the details of such a provocation, which, the sources warn, could even involve Israeli use of tactical nuclear weapons, on the pretext of an alleged, or foiled, Syrian or Iraqi missile attack, on Israel's primary nuclear weapons facility at Dimona. LaRouche declared that he is committed to stopping Sharon's war plan in advance. While there are many senior officials in Israel, the United States and Western Europe, who are deeply concerned about an Israeli war-provocation, LaRouche explained, their public silence cannot be tolerated. Sharon's plans must be publicly exposed. Sharon must understand, LaRouche continued, that if Sharon starts such a war, he will wind up being tried for war crimes. Sometimes, in situations like this, LaRouche concluded, war can be best avoided by someone simply standing up and telling the truth. There are so many lies in circulation these days, that the truth has become an even more powerful weapon. All sane people wish to achieve peace and justice in the Middle East. Therefore, LaRouche said, by telling the truth about Sharon's war schemes, one would hope that a stronger foundation can be built for such a peace agreement, and build confidence in the prospects for negotiations. LaRouche concluded that he hoped his warnings about Sharon's war-schemes would also have a very positive effect on the Bush Administration, where the idea of Sharon wishing to start a warwithout prior Bush Administration permissionposes a very serious threat, to those opposing the war-party faction at the Pentagon and the Vice President's Office. -30- Paid for by LaRouche in 2004 If you have received this e-mail in error, or do not wish to receive e-mails from us, please reply to this email with REMOVE in the subject line A HREF=""www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.
