Man Wasn't On Sex Offender Registry By Avis Thomas-Lester 7/4/04 "He was wanted on a felony arrest warrant in Florida. He had a 1993 conviction in Frederick County for soliciting a teenage boy and faced charges in Charles County last year after a boy accused him of molestation, court records show. When asked, Thomas Richard Koucky admitted to police that he had little control over his desire for boys and may have molested 300 of them. "If I walk out this door and a young boy is standing there and I'm around, it's all over," he said in comments quoted in a court report." washingtonpost.com http://www.newsday.com/news/health/ny-hsptsd013875051jul01,0,4155374,print.story POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER Study: 1 in 6 Iraq veterans show symptoms BY JAMIE TALAN STAFF WRITER July 1, 2004 Almost one in every six soldiers arriving home from duty in Iraq is showing symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder, depression or anxiety, according to interviews with more than 6,000 soldiers and Marines before and after deployment. Many said they were aware of their symptoms, but few have sought help. According to the study, published in today's New England Journal of Medicine, the veterans cited fear of the stigma of mental illness - that it could cost them their careers or alter relationships with peers and command officers www.ctrl.org DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

Last Saturday, Dale Earnhardt Jr. took his Nascar crew to see it. The film's appeal to working-class Americans, who are the true victims of George Bush's policies, should give pause to its critics, especially the nervous liberals rushing to disassociate themselves from Michael Moore. There has been much tut-tutting by pundits who complain that the movie, though it has yet to be caught in any major factual errors, uses association and innuendo to create false impressions. Many of these same pundits consider it bad form to make a big fuss about the Bush administration's use of association and innuendo to link the Iraq war to 9/11. Why hold a self-proclaimed polemicist to a higher standard than you hold the president of the United States? And for all its flaws, Fahrenheit 9/11 performs an essential service. It would be a better movie if it didn't promote a few unproven conspiracy theories, but those theories aren't the reason why millions of people who aren't die-hard Bush-haters are flocking to see it. These people see the film to learn true stories they should have heard elsewhere, but didn't. Mr. Moore may not be considered respectable, but his film is a hit because the respectable media haven't been doing their job. For example, audiences are shocked by the now-famous seven minutes, when George Bush knew the nation was under attack but continued reading My Pet Goat with a group of children. Nobody had told them that the tales of Mr. Bush's decisiveness and bravery on that day were pure fiction. Or consider the Bush family's ties to the Saudis. The film suggests that Mr. Bush and his good friend Prince Bandar bin Sultan, the ambassador known to the family as Bandar Bush, have tried to cover up the extent of Saudi involvement in terrorism. This may or may not be true. But what shocks people, I think, is the fact that nobody told them about this side of Mr. Bush's life. Mr. Bush's carefully constructed persona is that of an all-American regular guy - not like his suspiciously cosmopolitan opponent, with his patrician air. The news media have cheerfully gone along with the pretense. How many stories have you seen contrasting John Kerry's upper-crusty vacation on Nantucket with Mr. Bush's down-home time at the ranch? But the reality, revealed by Mr. Moore, is that Mr. Bush has always lived in a bubble of privilege. And his family, far from consisting of regular folks with deep roots in the heartland, is deeply enmeshed, financially and personally, with foreign elites - with the Saudis in particular. Mr. Moore's greatest strength is a real empathy with working-class Americans that most journalists lack. Having stripped away Mr. Bush's common-man mask, he uses his film to make the case, in a way statistics never could, that Mr. Bush's policies favor a narrow elite at the expense of less fortunate Americans - sometimes, indeed, at the cost of their lives. In a nation where the affluent rarely serve in the military, Mr. Moore follows Marine recruiters as they trawl the malls of depressed communities, where enlistment is the only way for young men and women to escape poverty. He shows corporate executives at a lavish conference on Iraq, nibbling on canapés and exulting over the profit opportunities, then shows the terrible price paid by the soldiers creating those opportunities. The movie's moral core is a harrowing portrait of a grieving mother who encouraged her children to join the military because it was the only way they could pay for their education,

Now you have a president with the corroded soul of a LIAR and TORTURER: A liar and torturer who is taking a sledge hammer to liberty and justice. There is NO WAR ON TERROR: an important international police action, yes. But no war any more than there is a War on Drugs. We know that the War on Drugs, as important as it is, is not a war. It is a metaphor for a police action and drug dealers take more lives than terrorists by far. So the War on Terror is being used as smoke and mirrors to destroy liberty and justice and bring in global totalitarianism. The MHR Regimen in BC appears to be a MILITARY regimen which systematically uses health-destruction (eg food, clothing and other essentials are necessary for health) as in instrument of governance and population control.

Cool. --SW) --- Forwarded message follows --- My Wild First Week with Fahrenheit 9/11... by Michael Moore July 4th, 2004 Friends, Where do I begin? This past week has knocked me for a loop. Fahrenheit 9/11, the #1 movie in the country, the largest grossing documentary ever. My head is spinning. Didn't we just lose our distributor 8 weeks ago? Did Karl Rove really fail to stop this? Is Bush packing? Each day this week I was given a new piece of information from the press that covers Hollywood, and I barely had time to recover from the last tidbit before the next one smacked me upside the head: ** More people saw Fahrenheit 9/11 in one weekend than all the people who saw Bowling for Columbine in 9 months. ** Fahrenheit 9/11 broke Rocky III's record for the biggest box office opening weekend ever for any film that opened in less than a thousand theaters. ** Fahrenheit 9/11 beat the opening weekend of Return of the Jedi. ** Fahrenheit 9/11 instantly went to #2 on the all-time list for largest per-theater average ever for a film that opened in wide-release. How can I ever thank all of you who went to see it? These records are mind-blowing. They have sent shock waves through Hollywood and, more importantly, through the White House. But it didn't just stop there. The response to the movie then went into the Twilight Zone. Surfing through the dial I landed on the Fox broadcasting network which was airing the NASCAR race live last Sunday to an audience of millions of Americans -- and suddenly the announcers were talking about how NASCAR champ Dale Earnhardt, Jr. took his crew to see Fahrenheit 9/11 the night before. FOX sportscaster Chris Myers delivered Earnhardt's review straight out of his mouth and into the heartland of America: He said hey, it'll be a good bonding experience no matter what your political belief. It's a good thing as an American to go see. Whoa! NASCAR fans you can't go deeper into George Bush territory than that! White House moving vans START YOUR ENGINES! Then there was Roger Friedman from the Fox News Channel giving our film an absolutely glowing review, calling it a really brilliant piece of work, and a film that members of all political parties should see without fail. Richard Goldstein of the Village Voice surmised that Bush is already considered a goner so Rupert Murdoch might be starting to curry favor with the new administration. I don't know about that, but I've never heard a decent word toward me from Fox. So, after I was revived, I wondered if a love note to me from Sean Hannity was next. How about Letterman's Top Ten List: Top Ten George W. Bush Complaints About Fahrenheit 9/11: 10. That actor who played the President was totally unconvincing 9. It oversimplified the way I stole the election 8. Too many of them fancy college-boy words 7. If Michael Moore had waited a few months, he could have included the part where I get him deported 6. Didn't have one of them hilarious monkeys who smoke cigarettes and gives people the finger 5. Of all Michael Moore's accusations, only 97% are true 4. Not sure - - I passed out after a piece of popcorn lodged in my windpipe 3. Where the hell was Spider-man? 2. Couldn't hear most of the movie over Cheney's foul mouth 1. I thought this was supposed to be about dodgeball But it was the reactions and reports we received from theaters around the country that really sent me over the edge. One theatre manager after another phoned in to say that the movie was getting standing ovations as the credits rolled in places like Greensboro, NC and Oklahoma City -- and that they were having a hard time clearing the theater afterwards because people were either too stunned or

I spurned the unisex style of dirty jeans. I was more under the influence of nuns than bongs. And I was frightened of the cost of free love. But as other decades passed the bland, polyester 70's; the greedy, padded-shoulder 80's; the materialistic, designer 90's; the bullying, Botox 00's I've become nostalgic for the idealistic passion of the 60's. It's amazing, given how far we've come from the spirit of the 60's with Bob Dylan hawking Victoria's Secret and Hillary Clinton a hawk how obsessed conservatives still are with pulverizing that decade. Their disgust with the 60's spurs oxymoronic and moronic behavior, as anti-big-government types conjure up audacious social engineering schemes to turn back the clock. The day after his re-election to the House in 1994, the future speaker, Newt Gingrich, jubilantly told me he intended to bury any remnants of the Great Society, counterculture, McGovernik legacy represented by the morally lax Clintons and return America to a more black-and-white view of right and wrong. He said America had slid into a situation-ethics morality, in which your immediate concern about your personal needs outweighs any obligation to others. A decade later, after it came out that Mr. Gingrich had his own affair with a young Washington political aide, and he divorced and embarked on his third marriage, he would be a top adviser to Donald Rumsfeld when Rummy and Dick Cheney decided they wanted to bring back a black-and-white view of right and wrong. The old cold warriors thought they could improve the national character by invading Iraq in that way banishing post-Vietnam ambivalence about using force and toughening up what they saw as the Clintonesque 60's mentality a weak, pinprick-bombing, if-it-feels-good-do-it attitude. Their new motto was: If it makes someone else feel bad, do it. W., who had tuned out during the 60's, preferring frat parties to war moratoriums and civil rights marches, and George Jones to psychedelic Beatles albums, was on board with his regents' retro concerns, like Star Wars and Saddam, and outdated cold-war assumptions, like the idea that terrorists could thrive only if sponsored by a state. In his book tour, Bill Clinton has been defending the 60's, noting that the polarization of American politics began with the civil rights, women's rights, gay rights and abortion rights struggles of the 60's and the assassinations of Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King. If you look back on the 60's and on balance, you think there was more good than harm, then you're probably a Democrat, he told a Chicago audience. If you think there was more harm than good, you're probably a Republican. Mr. Clinton told another audience that Republicans had had success portraying Democrats as weak elitists who couldn't be trusted to defend their country, couldn't be trusted with tax money, didn't believe in work, wanted to give all the money to poor people and people of color. He said the antigovernment, values crowd wanted to make sure the right people were in power. Once they returned to power, the Bush II team, dripping with contempt for Bill Clinton and oozing with we know best cockiness, thought they could use the sacking of Saddam to change the way Americans saw themselves and the way America was seen in the world. Their swaggering determination to expunge the ghosts of Vietnam and embark on a post-cold-war triumphalism has backfired, leaving the military depleted and drawn into a de facto draft, and once more leaving America bogged down halfway around the world in a hostile nation. The Bushes and Republicans recoiled at Mr. Clinton's moral relativism

John Kerry (D-Mass.) as members - don't always like what they're reading in Lowdown.Author and Bones expert Toby Rogers tells me that Manhattan real-estate lawyer David Richards, the Bonesman who "tapped" Yale undergrad George W. Bush into the elite club in 1967, is taking a lot of heat for his anti-Bush comments that appeared in this column in May.Last week, Rogers recounts, Richards and several other Bonesmen journeyed to Washington to watch their Bones brother Victor Ashe, the former mayor of Knoxville, Tenn., be sworn in as the U.S. ambassador to Poland.At a reception following the ceremony at the Metropolitan Club, according to what Richards has been telling people, a Bonesman nicknamed "Groggy" sidled up to him and complained about his remarks in this column (originally published in Rogers' book "Ambushed") in which Richards insisted that Bush doesn't deserve to be reelected President."I think it's pretty grim, I think he has trashed the economy, and I think he has conducted foreign policy badly, and I think he is a bad President," Richards said. "I don't know what he has done well.""Groggy" advised Richards: "Keep your f-- mouth shut."Rogers says Richards, who was in Europe and unreachable yesterday, also has received abusive E-mails from other Bush-supporting Bonesmen.Meanwhile, according to Rogers, the President recently joked to visiting Bonesmen, "If you want anything from me, you better ask for it now. I might not be here next year."Of course, if that's the case, they can still ask President Kerry Trinday Press Release July 2nd 2004BONESMAN'S KIN THREATENS TO KILL AUTHOR AND HIS FAMILYPolice Escort Suspect Away Christopher Richards, Son of Bonesman David Richards, who tapped President George W.

[CTRL] Israeli might have worked at Abu Ghraib
-Caveat Lector- http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/national/apwashington_story.asp?category=1152slug=Iraq%20Prisoner%20Abuse Saturday, July 3, 2004 · Last updated 3:54 p.m. PT Israeli might have worked at Abu Ghraib THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LONDON -- The American general formerly in charge of Abu Ghraib prison says there are signs Israelis were involved in interrogating Iraqi detainees at another facility. Brig. Gen. Janis Karpinski, suspended in May over allegations of prisoner abuse, said she met a man who told her he was Israeli during a visit to a Baghdad intelligence center with a senior coalition general. "I saw an individual there that I hadn't had the opportunity to meet before, and I asked him what did he do there, was he an interpreter - he was clearly from the Middle East," Karpinski told British Broadcasting Corp. radio in an interview broadcast Saturday. "He said, 'Well I do some of the interrogation here. I speak Arabic but I'm not an Arab; I'm from Israel.' "I was really kind of surprised by that ... He didn't elaborate any more than to say he was working with them and there were people from lots of different places that were involved in the operation," Karpinski added. Israel's Foreign Ministry told the BBC that reports of Israeli troops or interrogators in Iraq were "completely untrue." The allegations were also denied in a statement from Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's office. "The prime minister's office declares this evening that there is no basis and no foundation to the reports regarding supposed involvement of Israeli interrogators in investigating Iraqi hostages or prisoners," it said in a statement. "These reports are vehemently denied." The U.S. military has used private contract workers in the interrogations along with military personnel. The presence of Israeli forces in Iraq would inflame opinion in the Muslim world, where many compare the abuse of prisoners by U.S. forces to Israel's treatment of Palestinian detainees. Until a 1999 ruling by the Israeli Supreme Court, Israeli secret service interrogators were allowed to use "moderate physical pressure" - a euphemism, critics said, for torture. Among the practices allowed prior to 1999 were sleep deprivation, keeping prisoners in uncomfortable positions for long periods and covering their heads with filthy sacks. Former prisoners say some of those techniques also were used by U.S. forces in Iraq. Karpinski was suspended from command of the 800th Military Police Brigade after the publication in April of photos showing soldiers abusing and humiliating naked Iraqi detainees at Abu Ghraib.

[CTRL] Pentagon Tried To Censor Saddam's Hearing!
-Caveat Lector- http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/article.asp?ID=2003 Pentagon Tried to Censor Saddam's Hearing Robert Fisk - The Independent July 3, 2004 We Don't Trust You Guys" A team of US military officers acted as censors over all coverage of the hearings of Saddam Hussein and his henchmen on Thursday, destroying videotape of Saddam in chains and deleting the entire recorded legal submissions of 11 senior members of his former regime. A US network cameraman who demanded the return of his tapes, which contained audios of the hearings, said he was told by a US officer: "No. They belong to us now. And anyway, we don't trust you guys." According to American journalists present at the 30-minute hearing of Saddam and 11 former ministers at Baghdad airport, an American admiral in civilian clothes told camera crews that the judge had demanded that there should be no sound recording of the initial hearing. He ordered crews to unplug their sound wires. Several of the six crews present pretended to obey the instruction. "We learnt later," one of them said, "that the judge didn't order us to turn off our sound. The Americans lied--it was they who wanted no sound. The judge wanted sound and pictures." Initially, crews were told that a US Department of Defence camera crew would provide the sound for their silent tapes. But when CNN and CBS crews went to the former occupation authority headquarters--now the US embassy-- they found that three US officers ordered the censorship of tape which showed Saddam being led into the courtroom with a chain round his waist which was connected to handcuffs round his wrists. The Americans gave no reason for this censorship. "They were rude and they didn't care," another American television crew member said. "They were running the show. The Americans decided what the world could and could not see of this trial--and it was meant to be an Iraqi trial. There was a British official in the courtroom whom we were not allowed to take pictures of. The other men were US troops who had been ordered to wear ordinary clothes so that they were 'civilians' in the court." Three US officers viewed the tapes taken by two CNN cameras, 'Al-Djezaira' (a local, American-funded Iraqi channel), and the US government. "Fortunately, they were lazy and they didn't check all the tapes properly so we got our 'audio' through in the satellite to London," one of the crew members told The Independent yesterday. "I had pretended to unplug the sound from the camera but the man who claimed he was a US admiral didn't understand cameras and we were able to record sound. The American censors at the embassy were inattentive--that's how we got the sound out." The only thing the Americans managed to censor from most of the tapes was Saddam's comment that "this is theatre--Bush is the real criminal." Television stations throughout the world were astonished yesterday when the first tapes of Saddam's trial arrived without sound and have still not been informed that the Americans censored the material. "What can we do when an American official tells us the judge doesn't want soundand then we find out that they lied and the judge does want the sound?" an American camera operator asked. Video showed the face--and audiotape revealed the voice--of Judge Raid Juhi, whose name was widely reported in the Arab press yesterday. According to the camera crews, Judge Juhi wanted the world to hear Saddam's voice. Nevertheless the Americans erased the entire audiotape of the hearings of the 11 former Saddam ministers, including that of Tariq Aziz, the former deputy prime minister, and "Chemical" Ali, Saddam's cousin accused of gassing the Kurds at Halabja. The US Department of Defence tape of their hearings has been taken by the US authorities so there is now no technical record of the words of these 11 men, save for the notebooks of "pool" reporters--four Americans and two Iraqis--who were present. Judge Juhi said not long ago that "I have no secrets--a judge must not be ashamed of the decisions he takes." The Americans apparently think differently. www.ctrl.org DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic screeds are unwelcomed.

[CTRL] Porton Down Chief CBW Defense Scientist Killed In Plane Crash
-Caveat Lector- Sounds like engine failure; probably could have been caused by a HERF-gun attack if the ignition is electronic. This is suspected in the Wellstone assassination. Thanks to Scott Loughrey and Jeff Strahl for finding this item. Another Top Bioweapons Expert Killed http://www.rense.com/general54/hehi.htm http://news.scotsman.com/latest.cfm?id=3155120 Fri 2 Jul 2004 2:10pm (UK) Air Crash Victim Was Weapons Expert By Sam Marsden, PA News The pilot of an aircraft who died alongside three passengers when it crashed into a field was an expert in chemical and biological weapons, it emerged today. Dr Paul Norman, 52, of Salisbury, Wiltshire, was killed when the single-engine Cessna 206 he was piloting crashed in Devon on Sunday. A father and daughter also died at the scene, and 44-year-old parachute instructor and Royal Marine Major Mike Wills later died in hospital. Dr Norman, who was married with a 14-year-old son and a 20-year-old daughter, was the chief scientist for chemical and biological defence at the Ministry of Defence's laboratory at Porton Down, Wiltshire. He travelled the world lecturing on defending against the scourge of weapons of mass destruction, a friend and colleague said today. Steve Eley, chief scientist for hazard reduction at Porton Down, said: Paul was a great deal larger than life, and has left an enormous number of friends, all of whom have lost an irreplaceable part of their lives. Dr Norman's hobbies included parachuting, flying and looking after his small collection of old cars. Following study in Liverpool, the USA and Canada, he started work at Porton Down in 1986 and became an expert in his field. The Cessna crashed near the village of Beacon, east Devon, a few miles from Dunkeswell airfield, where it took off. The aircraft's other two passengers, 16-year-old Daniel Greening from Kingsteignton, Devon, and a 23-year-old from Taunton, Somerset, are still in hospital. Daniel's family said yesterday that he had survived thanks to the selfless actions of other skydivers on board. He was making a tandem jump with Major Wills, based at the Commando Training Centre, Lympstone, Devon, who was one of the world's leading parachutists. The skydiving ace, from Tiverton, Devon, had 5,900 jumps to his name and had held world and UK records. The flight was organised by the Devon and Somerset Parachute School, which has temporarily suspended its operations. The crash site was examined by officials from the Air Accidents Investigation Branch. The wreckage of the aircraft was removed from the site to the AAIB base at Farnborough. Retired police officer Eric Franklin, 66, from Beacon, has described seeing the aircraft flying low over his farmhouse and hearing the engine cutting out and spluttering before the crash. www.ctrl.org DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

The shadowy private investmentfirm is implicated by Moore as a key part of the insidious web that connects (or once connected) the Bush family to the Saudis, including the bin Laden family. For most Americans, F-9/11 was the first they'd heard of Carlyle. What is it, who is involved and how does it make its money? Dan Briody, whois featured in the doc,is theauthor of The Iron Triangle: Inside the Secret World of the Carlyle Group, as well as the newly releasedThe HalliburtonAgenda. One of the foremost experts on the Carlyle Groop, no one can accuse Briodyof being aconspiracy theorist. He's a business reporter, formerly of Red Herring, who began following the Carlyle story shortly after 9/11.Inour latest Cointelinterview, GNN gets the lowdownon Carlyle's shady origins, the cosy relationship between the Military Industrial Complex and current and former elected officials, andwhy the big media hasignored the story: GNN: What is the Carlyle Group and how did it start? Briody: The Carlyle Group gets its name from the Carlyle Hotel in New York City. The founders believed that the name Carlyle portrayed some kind of blue blood, silk stocking air of an old-school kind of investment house and so the Carlyle Group was born from the Carlyle Hotel in New York. The Carlyle Group actually started through a tax loophole - something called the Great Eskimo Tax Scam, that's what the company calls it today. The Tax Scam was essentially that Eskimo owned companies in Alaska were allowed to sell their losses to profitable companies in exchange for cash. The profitable companies would buy these losses then write them off their taxes and give a fraction of those losses to the Eskimo-owned companies who obviously needed cash. So a guy named Stephen Norris was a tax accountant essentially at Marriott Corporation, looking to exploit this tax loophole for Marriott and in so doing, he needed to find someone who could hook him up with Eskimos - Native Americans in Alaska, and he was able to find a guy by the name of David Rubinstein who was an aide in the Carter administration and who was renowned for his bulky rolodex. If you needed to find someone or know someone, David Rubinstein was the guy to go to. So Stephen Norris and David Rubinstein hooked up and worked a deal for Marriott and Stephen Norris realized that this was a serious money making opportunity and that he was going to go into working this tax loophole full time, which he did, along with David Rubinstein, and they probably put close to a billion dollars through this tax loophole and took a 1% cut on all the transactions and were able to make a nice little cottage industry out of this tax loophole. The two of them used to meet often at the Carlyle Hotel here in New York and when they decided to incorporate, Norris wanted the company to have a sort of silk stocking air to it. He wanted to have a very blue blood feel to their private equity firm and since they met at the Carlyle Hotel a lot, he decided that should be the new name of the company and then the Carlyle Group was born GNN: What direct benefit has been accrued by Carlyle since the war and more specifically talk about what they own and what they are all about? Briody: The Carlyle Group is a private equity firm, which essentially means that they invest in private companies - they take money from private investors and then invest that money into private companies. They essentially work like a mutual fund would, only instead of buying and selling stocks, they buy and sell companies. So they have different
