This is from the e-book  The
Broken Cross : 
  "At length stories emanating from Rome of sacrilege and abuses
committed in church, with the approval of the Pope, became so startling,
that groups of people in Europe and America decided to take action.

This culminated in a Mr. Daniel Scallen of the Marian Press in Georgetown, 
Ontario, Canada, employing the Pinkerton Detective Agency in New York to
investigate. One of the agency's detectives was sent, in 1973, to Rome, and
he returned with a story that dwarfed all other speculations, however sensational.

He had determined that there were two Popes living in the Vatican, Paul VI and an impostor who had been made
to resemble Montini with the aid of plastic surgery. Several such operations
were necessary, and when colour photographs of the false Pope were sent to
interested circles in Munich, where the imposture is still receiving concentrated
study, there were certain noticeable differences in the two sets of features 
that could not be overcome.

To point out the differences: Montini had clear blue eyes, large, and being
long-sighted he only required glasses for near viewing. The impostor had
green eyes, small, and he wore glasses with thick lenses on all occasions.

Montini's photographs reveal a small mole, or birth-mark, between the left
eye and the left ear. This does not appear in photographs of the impostor, 
whose left eyebrow was nearer to the eye than was Montini's.

The differences between the nose and the ears of the two men are held to
be decisive. Montini's nose was Roman, and protruded somewhat over his mouth.
The impostor's nose, part straight and part hooked, was short, and those
who subjected the photographs to professional examination claim to have detected
the insertion of a plastic strip in the nose to make it appear more straight.

But it is differences in the shape and formation of the ears that present
the greatest difficulty to those who doubt the existence of an impostor.
Such differences are unique, individual, and they are treated the same as
finger-prints in courts of law. Any comparison of the lobes and build of
the ears, as revealed by photographs, becomes not a little impressive.

But the interested circles did not stop there. They turned their attention
upon the voice, and called in the help of the Type B-65 Kay Elemetrics of
Pine Brook, New Jersey, and the Ball Telephone Company. Their object was
to analyse the voice (or voices, if there were indeed two popes) when they 
pronounced the traditional Easter Sunday and Christmas Day blessing, with
the words Indulgentium Peccatorum, spoken from the Vatican in 1975.

On both occasions the message was broadcast over Rome, and many people taped
it; and it appeared, according to sonograms that were made – and sonograms
are more sensitive than the ear – that the man who had spoken at Easter,
and again at Christmas, had not been one and the same. There had been two
different speakers.

Here I quote from those who are qualified to judge the sonograms and sum
up the distinctions:

One voice had a much lower pitch than the other, with a more pronounced dragging
of word syllables. 

Another difference was that one voice had a much lower range of frequencies.
It emitted a more hissing sound, and was noticeably shaky.

These graphs were submitted to the FBI for examination, and the same conclusions
were arrived at. The voice patterns were different, and indicated that the
vocal chords, the mouth, and the lips, were unique to each individual.

Subsequent statements alleging that there was a false Pope Paul VI, go on to say that he was an actor
whose initials are P.A.R., and that it was he who died at Castelgandolfo
on 6 August, 1978.[...]

JOHN FUND ON
THE TRAIL
Florida Northwest
Will Democrats steal the
Washington governorship?
Monday, November 29, 2004
12:01 a.m.
The country dodged a repeat
of the 2000 Florida election debacle this year because George W. Bush's
margin in the decisive state of Ohio was 136,000 votes. But the one out
of 50 Americans who live in Washington state are living through a Florida-style
nightmare, with Republican Dino Rossi clinging to a 42-vote lead over Democrat
Christine Gregoire in the governor's race after a machine recount of 2.8
million ballots. In the latest example of why this country needs to clean
up and clarify its sloppy election systems, Douglas firs substitute for
palm trees as the backdrop.
In Seattle's King County alone
the vote counting so far has featured such anomalies as 10,000 ballots
being mysteriously discovered nearly two weeks after Election Day, election
officials "enhancing" hundreds of unreadable optical-scan ballots, and
a judge allowing political partisans to selectively track down voters who
cast questionable provisional ballots to see if they could turn them into
valid votes. Ms. Gregoire gained several hundred votes through such maneuvers,
so she has now declared her intention to pay for a hand recount of some
of the state's precincts to see if she can take the lead. If a selective
recount changes the overall winner, the state would pay for a laborious
hand recount of all the votes The process could drag on past Christmas
and might eventually have to be settled by the state Supreme Court. Gov.
Gary Locke is scheduled to leave office on Jan. 12, but wags are already
joking he shouldn't be pack his bags too soon.


The trouble began when it became
clear the race was so close it wouldn't be settled by the ballots counted
on election night. Washington allows absentee ballots--used by 70% of the
voters this year--to be counted as long as they are postmarked by Election
Day. Thus everyone knew that the way late absentee and provisional votes
(cast by people not on the registration rolls, and subject to later verification)
were counted might wind up swinging the election.
That set off a legal fracas
over the 929 people in heavily Democratic King County whose provisional
ballots hadn't been counted because of mismatched
or missing signatures. Democrats demanded the names and addresses of those
voters so they could contact them and correct the errors. County officials
responded that in requiring that all 50 states offer provisional ballots
Congress had stipulated that such votes remain private. Republican lawyers
argued that having partisans scavenge for votes would increase the potential
for fraud.
But
Superior Court Judge Dean Lum said such arguments weren't as important
as the need to make sure every vote counted--an echo of Florida. A full
10 days after the election, while absentee votes were still being counted,
he ordered election officials to give the names and addresses of the provisional
voters to the Democratic Party. Judge Lum did express regret that the judiciary
was being "whipsawed in the middle" of a bitter partisan dispute and asked
to "micromanage an election." But then he proceeded to do precisely that
by allowing partisan workers the opportunity to mine flawed ballots after
the election, for the first time in the 20 years that Washington has used
provisional ballots.
Democrats spent the next three
days knocking on doors and speed-dialing voters. Ryan Bianchi, communications
assistant for Ms. Gregoire, made it clear how blatantly partisan the approach
was. Democratic volunteers asked if voters had cast ballots for Ms. Gregoire.
"If they say no, we just tell them to have a nice day," he told the Seattle
Times. Only if they say yes, did the Democrats ask if they want to make
their ballot valid. Republicans played catch-up by belatedly using their
own phone banks to call up voters and identify ballots that might fall
their way if made valid. In the end Democrats turned in some 600 written
oaths from provisional voters and Republicans about 200.
Those votes helped narrow
Mr. Rossi's eventual lead to 261 votes as the late absentee votes were
finally counted and the results certified on Nov. 17. Then the state began
a mandatory machine recount. Once again, King County was the center of
controversy. More than 700 previously uncounted ballots were added to the
county's total after election officials "enhanced"
them to better divine voter intent. When optical scan machines didn't accept
ballots, workers wou

In His Own Words
www.voicesofpalestine.org
The interview of Ariel Sharon by Amos
Oz
The Middle East is living a nightmare,
notably because of a man of Russian origin who became Prime Minister of
Israel: Ariel Sharon. What is the profound thought of this man? This is
what Amos Oz, an Israeli writer, help us to discover through an interview
published by the Israeli daily Davar in December 17, 1982.
Amos Oz reproduced this interview, with
others, in his book in Hebrew, 1982: Amos Oz: Poh va-sham be-Erets-Yisra'el
bi-setav, 1982, republished by Am Oved, Tel-Aviv, 1986. The interview is
on pages 70-82. Amos Oz does not mention the name of Sharon, but uses the
abbreviation Z. The facts given by Amos Oz indicate that the person interviewed
is Ariel Sharon.
[Sharon]: "You can call me anything you
like. Call me a monster or a murderer. Just note that I don't hate Arabs.
On the contrary. Personally, I am much more at ease with them, and especially
with the Bedouin, than with Jews.
Those Arabs we haven't yet spoilt are proud
people, they are irrational, cruel and generous. It's the Yids that are
all twisted. In order to straighten them out you have to first bend them
sharply the other way. That, in brief, is my whole ideology".
"Call Israel by any name you like, call
it a Judeo-Nazi state as does Leibowitz. Why not? Better a live Judeo-Nazi
than a dead saint. I don't care whether I am like Ghadafi. I am not after
the admiration of the gentiles. I don't need their love. I don't need to
be loved by Jews like you either. I have to live, and I intend to ensure
that my children will live as well. With or without the blessing of the
Pope and the other religious leaders from the New York Times. I will destroy
anyone who will raise a hand against my children, I will destroy him and
his children, with or without our famous purity of arms. I don't care if
he is Christian, Muslim, Jewish or pagan. History teaches us that he who
won't kill will be killed by others. That is an iron law".
"Even if you'll prove to me by mathematical
means that the present war in Lebanon is a dirty immoral war, I don't care.
Moreover, even if you will prove to me that we have not achieved and will
not achieve any of our aims in Lebanon, that we will neither create a friendly
regime in Lebanon nor destroy the Syrians or even the PLO, even then I
don't care. It was still worth it. Even if Galilee is shelled again by
Katyushas in a year's time, I don't really care. We shall start another
war, kill and destroy more and more, until they will have had enough. And
do you know why it is all worth it? Because it seems that this war has
made us more unpopular among the so-called civilised world".
"We'll hear no more of that nonsense about
the unique Jewish morality, the moral lessons of the holocaust or about
the Jews who were supposed to have emerged from the gas chambers pure and
virtuous. No more of that. The destruction of Eyn Hilwe (and it's a pity
we did not wipe out that hornet's nest completely!), the healthy bombardment
of Beirut and that tiny massacre (can you call 500 Arabs a massacre?) in
their camps which we should have committed with our own delicate hands
rather than let the Phalangists do it, all these good deeds finally killed
the bullshit talk about a unique people and of being a light upon the nations.
No more uniqueness and no more sweetness and light. Good riddance."
"I personally don't want to be any better
than Khomeini or Brezhnev or Ghadafi or Assad or Mrs. Thatcher, or even
Harry Truman who killed half a million Japanese with two fine bombs. I
only want to be smarter than they are, quicker and more efficient, not
better or more beautiful than they are. Tell me, do the baddies of this
world have a bad time? If anyone tries to touch them, the evil men cut
his hands and legs off. They hunt and catch whatever they feel like eating.
They don't suffer from indigestion and are not punished by Heaven. I want
Israel to join that club. Maybe the world will then at last begin to fear
me instead of feeling sorry for me. Maybe they will start to tremble, to
fear my madness instead of admiring my nobility. Thank God for that. Let
them tremble, let them call us a mad state. Let them understand that we
are a wild country, dangerous to our surroundings, not normal, that we
might go crazy if one of our children is murdered - just one! That we might
go wild and burn all the oil fields in the Middle East! If anything would
happen to your child, God forbid, you would talk like I do. Let them be
aware in Washington, Moscow, Damascus and China that if one of our ambassadors
is shot, or even a consul or the most junior embassy official, we might
start World War Three just like that!"

FBI revokes its service award from
Arab leader
BY NIRAJ WARIKOO
Knight Ridder Newspapers
(KRT) - After pressure from a pro-Israeli
group and columnist, the FBI rescinded an award it had planned to give
to a prominent Arab-American leader this week and raised questions about
his connections with men the government wants to deport.
Imad Hamad, who heads the local branch
of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, had been scheduled
to receive a prestigious service award today in Washington, D.C., for his
work with law enforcement after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
Local conservative columnist Debbie
Schlussel and the Zionist Organization of America - one of the oldest pro-Israeli
groups in the nation - led a spirited attack last month against Hamad,
charging in letters and articles that he is sympathetic to terrorists and
unworthy of such an honor.
Hamad said the allegations that he
supports terrorism are baseless and came from fringe groups with no credibility.
Schlussel and the Zionist Organization
of America were especially irked that the FBI was honoring Hamad with flight
attendant Madeline Sweeney, who calmly told authorities by phone details
of her plane's hijacking before it crashed into the World Trade Center.
The FBI had planned to fly Hamad, who
lives in Dearborn, to Washington and pay his travel expenses for the ceremony,
which was to honor just him and Sweeney.
In the past, the U.S. government had
tried to deport Hamad, hinting he might be connected with a terrorist group
called the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. In 1982, Hamad
had taken part in a rally criticizing Israel's invasion of Lebanon.
But in 1999, an immigration judge ruled
the government's evidence linking Hamad was ``vague, lacking in specificity
and uncorroborated.''
Schlussel, though, wrote a column last
month on her Web site and in the New York Post that reviewed Hamad's past
and lashed out at him and the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee,
alleging they support groups like Hamas and Hezbollah.
Hamad has said repeatedly he's against
killing innocent civilians. He said Schlussel ``lacks credibility'' and
pointed out that he was cleared of any links to terrorism.
But late Tuesday, the man in charge
of the FBI's Detroit office, Willie Hulon, visited Hamad in person at his
office and told him the FBI's Washington office was taking back the award.
The decision illustrates how intensely
the war on terrorism is playing out in metro Detroit, an area whose large
Arab population has drawn close attention since Sept. 11.
The FBI's move pleased the Zionist
Organization, whose president, Morton Klein, said Wednesday by phone from
Jerusalem that it's ``an important step in continuing the war against all
terror groups.''
Schlussel said awarding Hamad is akin
to awarding German Americans who supported Nazis during World War II.
``I'm glad they rethought this,'' she
said. ``It's a tremendous victory over terrorism and those who support
it.''
But it stunned many Arab Americans
in metro Detroit, where Hamad has emerged during the past few years as
an international spokesman for the community.
``I'm absolutely furious,'' said Mo
Abdrabboh, a Dearborn attorney who sometimes works on Arab-American issues.
``It's a blatant insult without any regard for Hamad or the community.''
Abdrabboh said he and other Arab Americans
are seriously thinking of resigning from BRIDGES, a group of local law
enforcement officials and Arab Americans that meets monthly in Detroit
to discuss various issues, including terrorism. The group is the only one
of its kind in the country and is cochaired by Hamad and U.S. Attorney
Jeffrey Collins.
``It's not about the award,'' Abdrabboh
said. ``It's about the disrespect.''
That sentiment was felt among several
local Arab leaders, who called the move another blow to a community already
reeling from what its members see as an assault on their civil rights by
U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft.
Late Tuesday, the FBI released a statement
saying that Hamad was somehow connected with people who could be deported.
``It has recently come to our attention
that evidence referencing Mr. Hamad has been filed in connection with an
upcoming deportation proceeding against associates of his,'' said FBI spokeswoman
Cassandra Chandler in the statement. ``Accordingly, this award has been
withdrawn.''
FBI officials, in Detroit and Washington,
D.C., didn't elaborate on how Hamad may have been tied to the potential
deportees. But they released a statement that said FBI Director Robert
Mueller ``has decided to present only one Exceptional Public Service award,''
which will go posthumously to Sweeney.
On Wednesday, Hamad received calls
from supporters, and he stressed that he wants to continue a positive relationship
with the FBI.
``I want to keep building bridges of
understanding,'' Hamad said. ``I want to continue making Mich

W. L. Pforzheimer, 88, Dies; Helped to Shape the C.I.A.
February 16, 2003
By TIM WEINER
Walter L. Pforzheimer, one of the founding fathers of the
Central Intelligence Agency and the creator of its
historical archives, died on Monday at his home in
Washington. He was 88.
Mr. Pforzheimer was one of a small number of men who
started working for the intelligence agency at its creation
in 1947 and kept serving it, even in retirement, until the
century's close.
Though he retired in 1974, he was the agency's
institutional memory - an unusual role at an institution
that tends to prefer its past shredded.
He was a short, round man whose mind was sharp and whose
tongue was sharper. In one of the two apartments he kept at
the Watergate in Washington - he lived alone in one, his
enormous collection of books and intelligence artifacts
occupied the other - he would usually be found with fellow
retired intelligence officers, sipping Scotch and telling
stories from the cold war. These sessions lasted well into
his 80's, until he suffered several strokes.
"He was for me the embodiment of institutional memory - he
knew the agency, all the events that mattered, all the
people that mattered," said John C. Gannon, a former deputy
director for intelligence at the C.I.A.
After his retirement, Mr. Pforzheimer often taught and
lectured young intelligence officers. Whether told over a
lectern or over a cocktail, his stories were endless, and
"all of them had elements of truth," said Hayden Peake, the
curator of the Historical Intelligence Collection, housed
at the agency and founded in 1956 by Mr. Pforzheimer.
Mr. Pforzheimer's story was a classic tale of a young,
wealthy man who went to Yale (class of 1935) and wound up
after World War II at the C.I.A. The college's unofficial
anthem, the "Whiffenpoof Song" ("We are poor little lambs
who have lost our way . . ."), was the soundtrack of the
war for that well-bred class of officers. Many were present
at the creation of the intelligence service.
In the war, he played two roles. One was at Army Air Force
Intelligence Headquarters in Europe, where his chief of
operational intelligence was Col. Lewis W. Powell, the
future Supreme Court justice.
His other role was laundering significant sums of money for
the Office of Strategic Services, the C.I.A.'s forerunner.
The cover organization for the money laundering was called
the Yale Library Project. The story was that the money was
being spent on the university's collections. Mr.
Pforzheimer had the perfect alibi: He was on the governing
board of the Yale Library Associates, and later became its
longest-serving trustee.
Mr. Pforzheimer was always a headquarters man, never
overseas. In the C.I.A.'s first decade, he was the agency's
liaison to Congress. This was a heady job because the
agency had started work without a legislative charter and
was running covert operations around the world before it
had the slightest legal authority to do so.
"It wasn't a case of wanting a law changed - there was just
no law," Mr. Pforzheimer recalled. In 1949, Congress passed
legislation authorizing the agency's secret budget and, by
implication, its secret operations.
In those days, Congress asked few questions of the agency.
In 1955, Senator Leverett Saltonstall of Massachusetts
stated the prevailing wisdom: "It is a question of our
reluctance, if you will, to seek information and knowledge
on subjects which I, personally, would rather not have."
Mr. Pforzheimer pithily summed up the agency's relationship
with Congress in those days: "Amusing. Amusing. The word is
amusing."
In 1956, the director of central intelligence, Allen
Dulles, asked Mr. Pforzheimer to set up the C.I.A.'s
historical intelligence collection. Mr. Pforzheimer's
father and uncle had been in the rare book business, and he
had begun his own collections of intelligence books and
memorabilia.
Mr. Pforzheimer, born in Purchase, N.Y., was single and is
survived by no immediate relatives. He donated more than
15,000 books to Yale in 2001.

A Friendly Face: How Soon-to-Be SEC Chief William Donaldson
Wooed the Senate Banking Committee
By Sheryl Fred
By most media accounts, William H. Donaldson, President Bush's
pick to replace Harvey Pitt as head of the SEC, should have had
a tough confirmation hearing Feb. 5.
Fortune, Forbes, Business Week and Bloomberg all reported that a
number of investors had questioned the wisdom of approving
Donaldson--who has a corporate governance record that's spotty
at best--for the post at the embattled agency.
As head of Donaldson Enterprises in the '80s, the investment
banker ran an offshore fund incorporated in the Cayman Islands.
As head of the New York Stock Exchange in the early '90s, he
allegedly ignored millions of dollars in illegal floor trades
and pushed to weaken accounting rules for foreign companies
listed on the exchange. As CEO of Aetna Inc.--where he was paid
nearly $20 million for just over a year of service--he
reportedly covered up accounting misstatements. As a member of
the board and compensation committee for EasyLink Services
Corp., an Internet transaction company, he voted to forgive a
$200,000 loan to the CEO when EasyLink's shares fell
precipitously last April. And finally, Donaldson, who founded
one of Wall Street's most prominent investment firms, denounced
the SEC rule that mandates fair disclosure of market-sensitive
information as "terrible" and "crazy" in statements made last
year.
"If he comes into the SEC with that kind of agenda, he might as
well be walking in carrying his own head," John Markese,
president of the American Association of Individual Investors,
told Bloomberg in December.
But it appears that Donaldson will be walking into the SEC with
his head held high. After a nearly seamless confirmation
hearing--in which Donaldson denied any wrongdoing in his
previous posts and vowed to "vigorously enforce" the recently
enacted accounting reform bill--the Senate Banking Committee
approved his nomination by voice vote Feb. 11.
It doesn't hurt that Donaldson, a longtime Bush family friend,
is also on friendly terms with several Senate Banking Committee
Democrats, not to mention a host of other senators, who are
likely to approve his nomination later this week.
While Donaldson has given little to politicians through
individual contributions (just $5,500 since 1989), his
investment firm, Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette, gave a total of
more than $1.3 million (56 percent to Republicans; 44 percent to
Democrats) in individual, PAC and soft money contributions
between 1989 and 1998.*
Perhaps more importantly, $110,850 of these contributions went
to current members of the Senate Banking Committee--most of them
Democrats. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), a longtime friend of
Donaldson's and the leading Democrat on the Economic Policy
Subcommittee, received $84,000 from DLJ between 1989 and 1998.
And Christopher Dodd (D-Conn.), ranking member of the Securities
and Investment Subcommittee, received $17,250 from the
investment firm in that same period. Other banking committee
recipients of DLJ's goodwill include Evan Bayh (D-Ind.); Rick
Santorum (R-Pa.); Wayne Allard (R-Colo.); and Chuck Hagel
(R-Neb.).
In addition, during Donaldson's 14-month stint as CEO of Aetna,
the company contributed $14,000 to Senate Banking Committee
members and another $517,040 to other federal candidates, PACs
and parties.
Eager to replace the lame-duck Pitt, who resigned amid
controversy in November but is still on the job two weeks into
February, Senate sources have said they expect Donaldson to
start work as early as next Tuesday.
*DLJ was acquired by Credit Suisse First Boston in 2000.
Contributions from DLJ for the 1999-2000 election cycle and
beyond cannot be separated from those of its new parent company.

Zionist lobby: declare war on Muslim
world
President Bush and Secretary Powell
are under zionist lobbyists pressure to declare a global war against the
Muslim world.
By Michael Collins Piper
A recent story in The New York Times
confirms that a tight-knit group of Pentagon officials and defense experts
outside government is working to mobilize support for a military operation
to oust Iraqi President Saddam Hussein as the next phase of the war against
terrorism. Times writers Sciolino and Tyler said the group, "which some
in the State Department and on Capitol Hill refer to as the 'Wolfowitz
cabal,'" (after its leader, Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz)
has "largely excluded the State Department.. President Bush and Powell
are facing an uprising among supporters of Israel in Congress who support
the "Wolfowitz cabal."
The Oct. 19 issue of Forward, an
influential Jewish weekly, reported that Rep. Eliot Engel (D-N.Y.) defiantly
declared that "Israel is not going to be sacrificed for the war on terrorism"
and that Brett Heimov, an aide to Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) had charged
that while "there hasn't been a real selling out of Israel", "they [Bush
and Powell] are waiting for that excuse and it hasn't quite come yet."
Forward also reported that an unnamed House staff member alleged that the
Bush administration is giving Israel "the cold shoulder" by supporting
the establishment of a Palestinian state and by attempting to build bridges
to the Arab and Muslim worlds.
The refusal by Bush and Powell to
blame Iraq for the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks has left Israel's supporters
in Congress and in the "Wolfowitz cabal" scrambling to generate support
by both the public and in government policy-making circles for an all-out
attack on Iraq-and then the remaining Muslim states that Israel perceives
to be enemies to its survival. While the Times report admitted that "Both
Powell and Vice President Dick Cheney have said there is no evidence linking
Iraq to the attacks" of Sept. 11, Wolfowitz and his allies, such as Richard
Perle, a member of the Defense Policy Board, are promoting "the need to
turn to Iraq as soon as the initial phase of the war against Afghanistan
and bin Laden and his organization is over." Amazingly, a two-day series
of meetings of the Defense Policy Board, which included Wolfowitz and Perle,
did not even brief Powell despite the saber-rattling tone underlying the
board's efforts. The Times reported that Powell was "surprised" and "quite
distressed" to learn that the president's deputy national security advisor,
Stephen Hadley, inserted what was described as "a far-reaching sentence"
into a letter sent to the United Nations Security Council threatening possible
action against Iraq and other nations that Wolfowitz, Perle and their allies
are alleging to be sponsors of terrorism.
What the Times writers did not mention
are the following facts about Wolfowitz and Perle reported by AFP based
on the pioneering investigative work of the late Spotlight correspondent
Andrew St. George: Perle is perhaps the singular driving force behind a
closely-knit group (including Wolfowitz) whose origins in the modern-day
national security establishment go back to the 1970s when Perle was a top
aide to the late Sen. Henry M. Jackson (D-Wash.). Not only was Perle a
key "inside" player on behalf of the Israeli lobby on Capitol Hill, but
he also played a critical part in the selection of a formal body - officially
known as "Team B" - that functioned as a purportedly "independent" advisory
council on intelligence estimates relating to Soviet aims and capabilities.
In fact, the members of Team B were bound by their determination to make
literally every aspect of U.S. foreign policy geared toward policies that
would prove beneficial to Israel. Solid evidence compiled over the years
by a variety of independent researchers in and out of government indicates
that Team B exaggerated Soviet influence. Team B's purpose in so doing
was to advance the theory that Israel was vital to U.S. defense against
the Soviets and that Israel therefore needed vast infusions of U.S. tax
dollars.
Today Wolfowitz and Perle, working
with a "war party" connected to the circles spawned by "Team B," are using
the new war on terrorism to force the military to carry out a geopolitical
agenda that not only represents the interests of a foreign nation - Israel
- but which could also be dangerous to America's interests abroad.
Joining Wolfowitz and Perle as the
self-appointed publicist for the "war party" is Perle's fellow Bilderberg
member, William Kristol, publisher of The Weekly Standard, a "conservative"
journal owned by Rupert Murdoch, a longtime media front man for the allied
financial interests of the powerful Rothschild and Bronfman families and
other patrons of Israel. Wolfowitz, Perle and Kristol propose broadening
the targets of the war on terrorism to include not only Iraq,

Shhh! American Prisoners Being Held
in Afghanistan
The USA is willing to exchange Guantanamo
prisoners for missing soldiers
Guerrillas have captured five more
American soldiers in Afghanistan. This is an extension to the list of 40
American soldiers who have been missing for more than a year now. This
information was published in the Pakistani newspaper Frontier Post,
with reference to Afghani resources.
The above-mentioned newspaper did
not inform where and when the five American soldiers disappeared. The newspaper
reported that the group of soldiers that disappeared in late September
of the year 2001, consisted of commandos, Afghan interpreters, and guides.
The group was conducting a secret operation against the Taliban and Al-Qaida,
somewhere deep in Afghanistan.
Despite search operations with the
use of up-to-date technology, including satellites and huge bribes for
Afghan commanders, it was not possible to find any traces of the missing
military men. American efforts to conduct negotiations regarding a possible
exchange of Guantanamo captives yielded no results either.
The information from the newspaper
Frontier Post concerning the exchange of American soldiers for prisoners
held on the Guantanamo base was indirectly confirmed with another piece
of information. The Americans released four prisoners (three Afghanis and
one Pakistani national) at the end of October. It was a big surprise for
everyone. The official wording of the release was as follows: the prisoners
no longer posed any threat.
In addition, a piece of news arrived
from Pakistan today, which is not likely to be good news for the Americans.
The leaders of an alliance of six religious parties of Pakistan intend
to prohibit further operations in search of Al-Qaida terrorists in the
north-west border province of the country. The alliance intends to prohibit
any operations with the participation of American CIA agents. Furthermore,
the religious parties want to stop the use of Pakistani airbases by foreigners
to launch military operations in Afghanistan.

Bankers Sued for Slave Reparations
Despite all the media hype about reparations
for African-Americans, one major lawsuit involving reparations has not
received much publicity. Find out why.
Exclusive to American Free Press
By Michael Collins Piper
 
 
It hasn’t made much of
a splash in the mainstream media, but the world’s wealthiest,
most powerful and highly respected international banking family—the
Rothschilds—has been targeted in a lawsuit by African-Americans
who allege that numerous Rothschild empire-related corporations profited
from the African slave trade.
Neither ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN nor Fox—all
of which are owned by a clique of powerful, interconnected families and
corporations with ties to the Rothschild interests—have reported
on this story.
However, on Sept. 4 a brief item appearing
in The Washington Post, referencing the Reuters news service, provided
some specifics.
African-American citizens—descendants
of slaves—have filed suit against a number of major global
corporations demanding reparations for reaping profits on the backs of
slaves.
The Post cited Deadria Farmer-Paellman,
who is filing lawsuits against a diverse series of corporate targets demanding
that they release corporate archives which might shed light on how those
corporations may have profited from the slave trade.
Farmer-Paellman had previously filed
a federal class action suit against CSX railroad, which used slave labor
in building its lines, and Aetna, the insurance giant. Aetna apologized
for insuring owners against injured and runaway slaves, but has refused
to make restitution.
What the story in the Post did not mention—but
which is very much the case—is that many (if not all) of the
corporations targeted are corporations historically controlled by the wide-ranging
international web primarily dominated by the Rothschild family.
The diverse targets include: J. P. Morgan
Chase & Co., Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc., Brown Brothers Harriman,
the Loews Corp, and Lloyds of London among several others. These named
corporations are all part of the Rothschild sphere of influence, which
includes such wealthy families as the Bronfmans, the Reichmanns, the Belzbergs,
the Newhouses, Murdochs, Sulzbergers and others.
Other corporations named include American
Inter national Group, Inc., the insurance firm, as well as Union Pacific
and Norfolk Southern Corp. railroads. WestPoint Stevens Inc., a textile
firm, and such tobacco makers as R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Holdings Inc., Brown
& Williamson Tobacco Corp. and Liggett Group, which is now indirectly

The interests, which dominate the American
media, have downplayed the significance of these lawsuits, but the ramifications
are far reaching: rather than asking every American taxpayer to “kick
in” for reparations, those who are asking for payback are
targeting those who actually profited directly from the slave trade.

The October
Surprise and the World It Made
Speak, Memory
by Chris
Floyd
As
the world prepares to mark the anniversary of one of history's great turning
points, we would be remiss if we failed to make our contribution to the
sad memorials. And so, with heavy heart, we return to that fateful moment
when the forces of violent extremism struck a cowardly and deceitful blow
against the cause of freedom.
We refer, of course, to the
weekend of Oct. 18-19, 1980, when a former and future head of the CIA met
in Paris with representatives from a terrorist regime to plot the cynical
manipulation of an American presidential election.
It is an act of treason for
private American citizens to negotiate political deals with foreign governments
without official authorization. But that didn't stop George Herbert Walker
Bush and William Casey from sitting down with the Ayatollah Khomeini's
mullahs to discuss a matter of mutual interest: making sure the 52 American
hostages being held by Iran stayed locked up until after the November
election contest between President Jimmy Carter and Republican challenger
Ronald Reagan.
The Republicans were terrified
of an "October Surprise"--a move by the Carter government to free the hostages
before the vote. So ex-CIA chief Bush--now Reagan's vice-presidential candidate--and
Casey were dispatched to Paris to offer the Iranians a covert deal to keep
the Americans in chains until Reagan was safely in office. The proposed
payoff? A newly-elected Reagan-Bush administration would supply Khomeini's
military with a secret supply of American weapons.
The deal provoked furious
debate in Teheran. The secular revolutionaries who helped topple the U.S.-backed
tyranny of the Shah wanted to wash their hands of the hostages, who had
been seized by Khomeini's fanatical talibs. But the religious extremists
who held ultimate power liked the cut of that Reagan-Bush jib.
And why not? The mullahs
had much in common with the American archconservatives. Both groups hated
Western modernity in almost all its forms (except technology-- especially
military technology, which they embraced with fervor). They despised modernity's
personal freedoms, its social upheavals, its sexual openness, its questioning
of traditional authority, and its many blasphemies against the primitive
sky-god that both groups blindly worshiped.
The ayatollah cast his lot
with Reagan and Bush. He held the American captives until the very minute
that Reagan-- victorious over the hapless Carter, who'd been pilloried
for "failing to free the hostages"--was inaugurated as President. The CIA--hamstrung
by Carter's reforms and his intermittent commitment to human rights--was
back in business. They had their boy Bush in Reagan's White House; their
old pal Casey was the new CIA boss.
Iran got its payoff, too:
sophisticated U.S. weaponry flowed to the extremist regime, often using
Israeli intelligence as a middleman. The conduit proved valuable a few
years later, when the Reagan-Bush White House skimmed profits from secret
Iranian arms sales to pay for their drug-running operations and terrorist
camps in Latin America: the infamous Iran-Contra scam.
But like the American people,
the Iranian mullahs were also suckered. While shipping arms to Teheran,
Reagan and Bush quietly embraced the mullah's mortal enemy, Saddam Hussein.
They gave him weapons, supported his invasion of Iran, and supplied military
intelligence to guide him while he sprayed Iranian soldiers and innocent
civilians with poison gas. When Bush ascended to the Oval Office, he moved
tons of dual-use technology to Iraq, allowing Hussein to expand his biochemical
and nuclear weapons capabilities. If--and it's a big if--Iraq poses any
nuclear or biochemical threat today, it's in part because George Bush and
his cronies fiddled the 1980 election and foisted a "shadow government"
dedicated to covert war and death-dealing treachery on the American people,
and the world.
A few tendrils of these dark
truths emerged during the last days of half-hearted Congressional investigations
into Iran-Contra. The treasonous Republican intervention with the mullahs
was confirmed by several credible sources, foreign and domestic, including
two national leaders: Abolhassan Bani-Sadr, who as president of Iran in
1980 had full knowledge of the negotiations; and future Russian Prime Minister
Sergei Stepashin. At the time of the probe, Stepashin was head of the Supreme
Soviet's Defense and Security Issues Committee. At the request of the investigators,
he carried out an extensive review of Soviet intelligence files and sent
Congress a remarkably detailed report on the Reagan-Khomeini connection.
Several witnesses (and Stepashin's
report) put Bush on the scene for at least one day of the Paris sessions.
Although Bush had unaccountably disappeared from the campaign trail on
the date in question, he told Congress that he'd "taken a day off"--in
the final push of a heated pres

100,000 Men and Boys, Machine-Gunned
to Death!!
Memo To: Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison
From: Jude Wanniski
Re: Holy Cow!!!That's Genocide!!!
Did you happen to read the letter in
the NYTimes
Tuesday about how Saddam Hussein in 1988 had "100,000 Kurdish men and
boys rounded up, trucked to remote areas and machine-gunned to death, their
bodies bulldozed into mass graves."? The reason I ask you of all people,
Senator, is that I read in the Washington
Post that you are eager
to pre-emptively strike Iraq to deal with this monster, as soon as you
have collected enough of a case against him. I had wondered if you put
the Times letter from Human Rights Watch into your Evidence Envelope,
as it certainly would persuade me we should kill as many Iraqis as it would
take, with bombs and bullets, to rid the Middle East of his ugly presence.
You know from my previous contacts with you and your capable staff that
I consider you to be among the very best U.S. Senators, in the top ten
if not the top five. So if these 100,000 machine-gunned men and boys are
weighing on your decision, I think you can relax on that account.
The story is pure bunk. I've looked into
it and can tell you it never happened. The story actually began as a rumor
picked up by two staff members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee
who were in Kurdistan at the time the Iran/Iraq war ended in August 1988.
They reported hearing that 100,000 Iraqi Kurds were GASSED to death by
Saddam's army in a matter of days, soon after he concluded his peace with
Iran. The story was dopey to begin with as most of the Iraqi Kurds of fighting
age had fought side-by-side with the Iraqi army. There were a small number
of Iraqi rebels among the Kurds, who defected to the Iranians expecting
Iran would win the war. Of the 2 million male Kurds in Iraq, more than
half were too young or too old to be rounded up and machine-gunned, so
we are talking about Saddam bumping off more than 10% of the relevant population
in a matter of days. The rumor would not have gone very far, Senator, but
Secretary of State George Shultz held a press
conference and told the world that Saddam had GASSED 100,000 men and
boys of fighting age. When asked how he knew, he said it was a secret!
Our State Department essentially confirmed the stupid rumor without an
investigation.
In the years since, Human Rights Watch
has conceded all those fellas could not have been killed by gas, which
the Army War College tells me has a kill rate of only 2% unless your head
is in the oven. Having raised so much money, the Human Rights Watch folks
had to come up with another theory, which is how they now happen to have
been rounded up, machine-gunned to death, and bulldozed into mass graves.
Fourteen years ago. The folks at the Army War College (who you should talk
to, by the way) tell me only one "mass grave" was found, with 14 corpses,
and there has been no other sign of the rest of the 100,000 bullet-riddled
bodies. The reason Human Rights Watch say they were "trucked to remote
areas" before being bulldozed into mass graves, one might suppose, is that
modern technology can spot such doings by satellite, and no such disturbances
of the land have been located.
They REALLY must be remote because American
newshounds sniffing around right after all this blood was supposed to have
been spilled did not smell a thing. Milton
Viorst of the Washington Post, who knows Kurdistan as well as
any American journalist, rushed to the spot as soon as George Shultz loosed
that bolt from the blue, and reported to his readers:
>From what I saw, I would conclude that
if lethal gas was used, it was not used genocidally -- that is, for mass
killing. The Kurds compose a fifth of the Iraqi population, and they are
a tightly knit community. If there had been large-scale killing, it is
likely they would know and tell the world.
But neither I nor any Westerner I encountered
heard such allegations. Nor did Kurdish society show discernible signs
of tension. The northern cities, where the men wear Kurdish turbans and
baggy pants, were as bustling as I had ever seen them. I talked to armed
Kurds near the border, members of Iraqi military unites mobilized against
the rebels.
On the other hand, Iraq probably used
gas of some kind in air attacks on rebel positions. Journalists visiting
the Turkish camps saw refugees with blistered skin and irritated eyes,
symptoms of gassing. But doctors sent by France, the United Nations and
the Red Cross have said these symptoms could have been produced by a powerful,
but nonlethal tear gas.
Citing national security, Mr. Shultz has
declined to submit the U.S. data to scrutiny, even by America's NATO allies,
though State Department sources say it is the sort of information that
the United States routinely shares with them. American officials acknowledge
that Mr. Shultz's evidence, chiefly radio intercepts, may be subject to

Imagine the Fourth Reich, on a global scale.
Sadistic, racist, jackbooted thugs with
a license for roadside executions. Slave
labour camps, torture, heinous experiments, systematic ritual killings
and a World Leader on parade, like Ariel Sharon, who makes the Devil look
cute, worshipped by all, out of fear. Welcome to the New World Order.
It may not appear to be so dramatic or
traumatic as yet, but the machinery is in place to install this militaristic
system, when the timing is right, and while life may still seem easy for
you, there is an unseen, unspoken, unreported, unbelievable, UN agenda
in action, making life a living hell for millions, which is unacceptable
to anyone with a vestige of humanity left in them.
Phil Schneider was murdered in January
1996, soon after lecturing on covert, shadow government operations, including
underground bases, concentration camps and the hundreds of Gunderson prisoner
box-cars at Portland, Oregon, which were confirmed by a satellite photo
in 1998. He spoke of Martial Law through man-made viruses and geophysical
warfare (earthquakes, floods, drought, cyclones etc.) and UN involvement.
Schneider who sacrificed his life to inform the public that the enemy was
within the gates, or below ground, was telling the truth. "Then said He
unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences;
and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven. But before
all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you,
delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought
before kings and rulers for my name's sake." (Luke 21: 10-12)
The 'motto' derived from WWII is, "Never
Again" in relation to the Holocaust, but a crowd in Detroit were told by
Bush representative, Peter Kirsanow, that America could "forget about civil
rights" if there is a further terrorist attack on the United States by
"the same ethnic group that attacked the World Trade Center." He insinuated
that the patriots in the Homeland would rise up and demand that
the Regime detained every Arab-American in a concentration camp and this
reaction would be almost impossible for the Administration to ignore, which
is blatantly advocating another Holocaust against a specific nation, Islam,
but by a Superpower far superior to the Nazi's.
President Bush portrayed Al-Qaeda factions
like vermin whom he would “smoke out
of their holes” and when
one powerful group begins to describe another people as apes, pigs, rats,
roaches, beasts or “heathens” a disaster is always
in the making. The dominant party usually stands to gain economically and
racial stereotyping simply masks the harsh reality of exploitation and
colonization. Therefore, it is very much in the interests of Bush, fighting
the "axis of evil" for such an attack to occur and the temptation to incite
or arrange the outrage himself to blame Muslim extremists, as a pretext
to obtain absolute power, must be overwhelming. The weapon of choice which
the public are being primed for is apparently a virus or 'dirty bomb.'
In any national emergency situation, the
Federal Emergency Management Agency, based underground at Mount Weather,
takes over and they are presently preparing for nuclear, biological and
chemical attacks against U.S. cities, including the possibility of multiple
attacks with weapons of mass destruction. The deadline for their contingency
plans is early in 2003. Saddam Hussein has been singled out again
as the next big 'threat to civilization' and his picture has been dug out
of the archives for media consumption, supplanting the elusive Bin Laden.
However Scott Ritter, a UN weapons inspector
in Iraq for seven years contradicts
these accusations, saying, "Saddam Hussein's
capability to produce weapons has been significantly downgraded" and he
added, "George Bush is coercing the American people into a war based on
speculation.” There is no evidence Iraq has weapons of mass
destruction in contravention of UN resolutions. The only countries currently
engaged in illegal wars with massively destructive weapons are the US,
UK and Israel. They condemn half the world as their enemies, but it is
this coalition who are in enmity with the whole human race.
It would be better for one and all, if
Bush exercised some old fashioned diplomacy to settle his differences with
Islamic leaders, rather than goading opponents into more terror attacks
on US or Israeli citizens. The consequences of a major assault with a 'suitcase
nuke' or deadly virus on a US city would be utter chaos and FEMA would
be the LAW, enforcing evacuations, relocations, quarantine, mass detention,
road blocks, checkpoints and Executive Orders. These orders give the president
the powers of a despot and the right to practice total tyranny over the
population of the United States, he would als

The Unholy Alliance -
Christianity & The NWO
EXCLUSIVE TO RENSE.COM
By Eric Jewell
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
2-25-2
 
The Bilderbergs. The Trilateral Commission.
The Council of Foreign Relations. The Central Intelligence Agency.
Most everyone has heard of these groups
and some of the conspiracy theories surrounding them regarding the development
of the 'New World Order.'
Now imagine for a moment there is something
to this (and there appears to be no lack of documented material justifying
these theories). That would mean that at almost every elevated level of
business and government, world wide, men and women have infiltrated, become
the controlling administrators and are working to effectively control every
aspect of the life of the "world citizen."
One aspect of this that has not been
properly searched out is the "religious" connection. Surely, given that
much of the world is religious, and in the currently reigning SuperPower
nation of the U.S., predominantly "Christian," then it would only make
sense that these organizations have infiltrated the Church itself and are
also actively leading it to into the New World Order as well.
Do the worlds leading Christian evangelicals
have ties to these organizations?   Yes they do, and it is thoroughly
documented.
Rev. Sun Myung Moon (The Moonies), and
the Unification Church
For those few of you who are not familiar
with the Rev. Moon, in the 60s both he and his Unification Church were
universally regarded as a dangerous cult. The abuse his followers suffered
at the hands of their mind manipulating master is indeed very well established.
His claims include stating that Christ
failed His mission, and that Moon himself is the "new messiah" who is come
to fulfill the mission of God. He also claims that it is his mission to
'unite the world through uniting religious forces'. But would it shock
you to know that nearly all the big name Christian evangelicals have extremely
strong ties to him?
One such Church leader and internationally
recognized evangelical Christian, Jerry Falwell, readily admits that he
accepted 2.5 million dollars from Moon in 1994 in order to bail out his
Liberty University in Richmond, Virginia. This was funneled through a Moon
organization known as the 'Womens Federation for World Peace' which has
been chaired by Beverly LaHaye, Wife of Timothy LaHaye, who is the popular
co-author of the "Left Behind" Christian fictional book series and a well
known evangelical Christian. The Womens Federation for World Peace paid
3.5 million to the Christian Heritage Foundation, which in turn bought
Falwell's $73 million debt, and then frankly wrote it off. The Heritage
Foundation then seems to have paid themselves a fee of one million dollars
for their trouble.
Since that time Falwell has spoken at
many of Moons functions, embracing the cult-leader with unabashed reverence
and friendship. Even writings from Moons' Church confirm Falwells comradeship
with 'the new messiah' and his cult. Moon has even been a guest speaker
in mainline denominational Churches in the past few years. Falwell further
praised Rev. Moon calling him, "An unsung hero to the cause of freedom,
who is to be commended for his determination and courage and endurance
in support of his beliefs."[2]
According
to official court records of a lawsuit that was filed in Bedford County
Circuit Court (West Virginia), it was alleged that Falwell and an associate
flew to South Korea, January 9, 1994 to meet with Unification Church officials.
This trip came shortly before Falwell was awarded the Moon money. Falwell
stated openly, "If the American Atheists Society or Saddam Hussein himself
ever sent an unrestricted gift to any of my ministries, be assured I will
operate on Billy Sunday's philosophy: The Devil's had it long enough, and
quickly cash the check."[1]
Falwell is
not the only evangelical reported to have accepted money from Rev. Moon.
Other notable speakers for Moon's organizations and affairs receiving as
much as $80,000 to $150,000 have included Ralph Reed, Beverly LaHaye, Gary
Bauer, and Robert Schuller, well known for his "Crystal Cathedral" in Southern
California and "Hour of Power" 'positive-thinking' television ministry.
The Council
Of National Policy (CNP)
Another Moon
sponsored organization is the Council of National Policy founded in 1981
by Tim LaHaye, the aforementioned co-author of the "Left Behind" book series.
It is reported that he received $500,000 from a Mr. Bo Hi Pak, Moons #1
man, and a former Korean CIA officer. Though a tape exists showing that
LaHaye thanked Pak for the money, LaHaye never denied the charge but verbally
attacked the sources verifying the allegation with a barrage of insult.
Other members
of the CNP have included:
Beverly and
Lee LaHaye, also associated with Moons CWA group. Gary Bauer, Bill Bright,
James Dobson (Focus On The Family), Bob Dugan, Ron Godwin, Robert Grant,
Rebecca Hagelin, Bob Jones the 3rd (Bob Jone

Marines will play war games in Boise
Downtown will be training zone for urban
battles
By Patrick Orr
The Idaho Statesman
Boise probably will be invaded by a small,
stealthy group of U.S. Marines this fall -- creeping along the Greenbelt,
near back yards, and inside buildings.
But before checking out real estate prices
and schools in Canada, relax -- it´s just an exercise.
In an effort to better understand urban
warfare and get some valuable experience in reconnaissance and intelligence-gathering
in a real city instead of a simulation, the Marine Corps plans to visit
Boise for some interactive war games.
"This is going to be great training for
them to test new techniques, to help teach them to (work) in an urban environment,"
Boise Police Chief Don Pierce said. "It is going to be an interesting and
fun community event. There will be a role for citizens to play."
Unlike a 12-day exercise currently going
on in North Little Rock, Ark., Marines in the Boise exercise will not conduct
car and building searches or carry weapons on city streets. Instead, they
will work in small teams and try hard to avoid detection as they infiltrate
urban areas and gather intelligence from a base in the Greenbelt area.
"Boise is going to be great, with the Greenbelt
going right through the city," Randy Gangle, senior operational adviser
for the Marine Corps Warfighting Laboratory, said Tuesday from Little Rock.
"We are good on the green side but not so good on the gray side (cities).
With both, Boise is going to be a good place to train."
"It is going to be good to get out of a
sterile military environment and practice in a real, live city," Gangle
said. "Frankly, we just really don´t know how to do urban ground
reconnaissance."
About 50 Marines probably will be involved,
Gangle said. They will be deployed in teams of 12, pick targets in different
parts of the city and gather intelligence, moving as stealthily as possible.
That´s where the people of Boise
can help.
"We don´t want to be seen doing this,"
Gangle said. "People will be encouraged to help us, to call the police
if they see anything, and we can gauge how effective it has been."
The Marines, in camouflage, will not be
carrying weapons but will carry radios and other equipment during the training,
Gangle said.
Marine officials will pick a foreign city
similar to Boise and use it to help them create training scenarios before
starting the exercise.
There will be plenty of media notice before
the exercise, so no-one should be that surprised to see camouflage-clad
Marines skulking along a canal or through an alley.
If the Marines plan to use a particular
neighborhood or building, they will pass out fliers and get permission
to go onto property before doing anything, Gangle said.
The challenge will be for the residents
to find them.
Boise officials met with the Marines several
months ago after Gen. Bill Catto, in town for a meeting that included Gov.
Dirk Kempthorne, saw the city and thought it would be a great place to
train, Gangle said.
So in December, the governor´s office
put the Marines in contact with city officials, who agreed to host the
exercise later this year -- probably in the fall.
"They came in and looked around and said
they liked it a lot," Pierce said. "I think Boise is just the right size
militarily for what they want."
Suzanne Burton, spokeswoman for Boise Mayor
Brent Coles, said city officials had a pretty solid idea the training was
going to happen, but were not aware of a specific date. They plan to release
information when a final date is set and more details finalized, she said.
City officials started getting calls Friday
when syndicated radio host Paul Harvey reported on the Marine exercises
in North Little Rock and indicated they would be coming to Boise soon.
The Wall Street Journal also ran a brief
Friday identifying Boise as a possible training site, prompting calls from
media outlets.
Burton said city officials will be in contact
with the Marines to try to set a date.
Gangle said Tuesday that while they planned
to come to Boise in the fall, he might ask to move the training up a few
months.
Regardless of when it happens, city officials
are happy to host the Marines.
"Mayor Coles thinks it´s a really
good idea and a good fit," Burton said. "We want to be fully supportive.
I think it is going to be a grand time for people in Boise."
The Marines have been doing similar training
exercises since 1997 to improve their ability to operate in urban areas.
The training is not in response to the
Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, but is part of an ongoing process, Gangle said.
"In the future, most of our battles overseas
will take place in cities, and our ability to gather information in cities
is limited," Gangle said. "The most complicated and difficult environment
for us is urban with a civilian population."

Car crash adds to Lebanese suspicion
of Israeli cover-up
By Robert Fisk in Beirut
01 February 2002
Did Jean Ghanem hold the secrets of the
testimony on the 1982 Sabra and Chatila massacre that Elie Hobeika planned
to reveal about Ariel Sharon, the Israeli Prime Minister, before Hobeika's
assassination in Beirut last week?
If he did, we shall never know them –
because Mr Ghanem, once Hobeika's political deputy, died only four days
before Hobeika, two weeks after a mysterious car accident in east Beirut.
Mr Ghanem, a medical doctor who became
a Phalangist party official and served under Hobeika's ruthless command,
is rumoured to have held documents that his former boss intended to present
to Belgian lawyers in their attempt to indict Mr Sharon for his involvement
in the massacre in which up to 1,700 Palestinian civilians were killed.
But on New Year's Day, Mr Ghanem, who was only 56 and with no history of
heart problems, drove his car into a tree in the suburb of Hazmieh –
only a few hundred metres from the spot where Hobeika was killed by a car
bomb last week.
Mr Ghanem's wife was badly hurt in the
crash and remains in hospital. He died on 14 January after lying in a coma
for two weeks. Hospital officials said he had had a heart attack. But now
Lebanon's judicial police plan to ask Mrs Ghanem if she wishes to exhume
her husband's body for a second autopsy and Nabih Berri, the Lebanese parliament
speaker, says that the death of Mr Ghanem – who was also second
in command of Hobeika's Al Waad party – may be linked to Hobeika's
murder.
Another of Hobeika's former militia buddies,
Karim Pakradouni, who is now head of the Phalange Party, says the same
thing.
Lebanon blamed Israel for Hobeika's murder
– which Mr Sharon himself denied. An anonymous phone-caller
in Cyprus claimed his killing as the work of a supposedly anti-Syrian group
that no one has ever heard of. Mr Hobeika, who led the Phalangist killers
into Sabra and Chatila, changed sides from Israel to Syria during the civil
war. But Lebanese police have now traced the car in which the bomb was
placed to Jezzine, where Israel maintained an intelligence headquarters
during the 19 years that the Christian town was under Israeli occupation.
The car's original owner has told the police
that he sold his Mercedes 280 to two unidentified men without registering
the transaction; the two buyers, he said, appeared to come from a neighbouring
village. Adnan Addoum, the Lebanese Prosecutor General, says he is prepared
to open a criminal investigation into Mr Ghanem's death if his widow agrees.
In which case we might find out if two
men took the secrets of the Sabra and Chatila massacre to their graves.

Two Tampa officers shot during traffic
stop The Associated
Press TAMPA, Fla. -
Two police officers were recovering from gunshot wounds Wednesday after
they were shot with one of the officer's guns during a scuffle at a traffic
stop. Officers R.D.
Pemberton, 43, who was wounded in the right shoulder, and Larry Mitchell,
46, who was shot in the groin, were released from Tampa General Hospital
Wednesday afternoon, a hospital spokeswoman said. They
were shot with Pemberton's 9mm Glock service weapon after one of the suspects
wrestled it away from the officer. Also
shot in the scuffle is accused shooter Saul Garcia, 24. He was in stable
condition at St. Joseph's Hospital with wounds to his abdomen and leg,
police said. Two other
men, Jose R. Hernandez-Garcia, 20; and Bartolome Perez Chavez, 28, were
also in custody. The men were driving a van registered in Georgia, but
police do not know if they were living there. Saul
Garcia was charged with two counts of attempted murder of a law enforcement
officer and one count of depriving an officer of his weapon. His brother,
Hernandez-Garcia, is being held on one count of aggravated battery on an
officer and two counts of resisting arrest without violence. Chavez
was not charged in the incident, but is being held by the Immigration and
Naturalization Service after police determined all three men were in the
United States illegally from Mexico. Durkin
said police do not know a motive for the shooting. There were no warrants
for their arrest and they were only being stopped for running a red light. The
shooting occurred about 11:30 p.m. Tuesday when the two officers stopped
the van in north Tampa. The officer saw Hernandez-Garcia switch seats with
his brother and asked Hernandez-Garcia to get out of the van. As
they were escorting him to the police cruiser, Hernandez-Garcia began fighting
with Pemberton, police said. As Mitchell tried to assist, Saul Garcia hit
him from behind and knocked him to the ground, police said. Saul
Garcia took Pemberton's weapon and shot both officers, police said. Mitchell
was able to return fire, hitting Saul Garcia. The
two other men fled in the van, but were captured after crashing it.http://www.jacksonville.com/tu-online/apnews/stories/011602/D7H30DC82.html

Bizarre Tale of 5 Arrested Israelis Gets Weirder
Via NY Transfer News * All the News That Doesn't Fit
[These five have not been deported as was expected on Sept 18 when
the last news appeared about them. Now the mother of one of them, who
has been shrieking to the press since the beginning, claims that they
were not on a Jersey City rooftop on Sept 11, taking pictures and
shouting with joy as the towers burned and collapsed, but that they
were actually arrested in the George Washington Bridge white van
incident. (Readers will recall THAT incident was later said to have
really been a white van in the NJ Meadowlands, nowhere near and
having nothing to do with the GWB.) We'll probably never know, but
at
least it seems that the Fabulous But Incompetent have not just let
the Israelis all run home to Mommy.
Mom is lucky her precious boy isn't experiencing the conditions
Palestinian prisoners endure in Israel. She is complaining about
conditions at the MCC (probably the story is in error about their
whereabouts. The Manhattan Federal Correction Center is where they
are keeping most of their Arab hostages swept up in New York City
during the post-911 racist hysteria.)
It's particularly amusing to see these dudes in their 20s being
described as if they were children.  -- NY Transfer]

Five Israelis Held in New York
Five young Israelis are "on the verge of collapse," according to
family members, as their incarceration in New York on charges
relating to the Bin Laden attacks continues. They were arrested on
Sept. 11, only hours after the World Trade Center attack, on charges
of "plotting to blow up" a New York bridge.
Katie Shmuel of the Galilee town of Yokne'am, southeast of Haifa,
says that her son Yaron is in "a very critical psychological
situation," given that they are not allowed to have visitors and the
difficult conditions in which they are being held. "Even the Israeli
Consul-General in New York was allowed to visit only after asking
several times and receiving a special permit," Katie told Arutz-7's
Yosef Zalmanson today. "He was allowed to talk to them only in
English, and only from behind a glass partition. The Consul told me
that the boys are in a bad state and that they are being held under
difficult conditions."
When asked why the five youths, aged 22-26, are being held, Katie
replied with despair: "It's ludicrous. They were on the George
Washington Bridge [between upper Manhattan and New Jersey] at the
time of the bombing, and the FBI had warnings of a terrorist plot,
of
guys in a white van, to blow up the bridge. So when the FBI saw this
van, with my son and his four friends -- one of them had a large sum
of
money, there were two razor knives in the van, and one of the boys
is
named Omer, which the FBI guys thought was Omar -- they put one and
one together and got three, and immediately arrested them... For the
first few days, the boys were held in an FBI dungeon, tied up, with
no clothes and no food." She said that original reports that they had
been arrested while boisterously watching the disaster from a rooftop
"are totally fabricated. For one thing, they weren't even on a roof,
they were in a van..."
When asked how she explains her son's continued incarceration and
that of his friends, she said, "I truly have no explanation for this
incredible story - except this: The Americans are using them as pawns
to pressure the Israeli government. Am I being clear enough?" She
said that President Moshe Katzav and others had attempted to
intervene, but there have been no results so far. The youths are
being held in the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.
A spokesperson for the Israeli Consulate in New York told Arutz-7
that in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks, "the Americans now have
different procedures for dealing with the detention of anyone
arrested in connection with the attacks. Every single request of ours
must go through the FBI and the State Department's legal team." She
said, "We are doing as much as we possibly can on their behalf,"
including, she said, getting local Jewish leaders involved in the
cause of the imprisoned young Israelis.

Re: [CTRL] Team-B' Targets Bush-Powell

Team-B' Targets Bush-Powell
President George Bush and
Secretary of State Colin Powell are under increasing fire from highly-placed
lobbyists for Israel who want the United States to launch an all-out global
war against the Muslim world.
Exclusive To American Free
Press
By Michael Collins Piper
A story in The New York Times,
widely reprinted in newspapers across the United States, confirms a report
in American Free Press on Oct. 8 that, in the words of the Times, "a tight-knit
group of Pentagon officials and defense experts outside government is working
to mobilize support for a military operation to oust Iraqi President Saddam
Hussein as the next phase of the war against terrorism."
Times writers Elaine Sciolino
and Patrick E. Tyler said the group, "which some in the State Department
and on Capitol Hill refer to as the 'Wolfowitz cabal,' " (after its leader,
Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz) has "largely excluded the State
Department, where Secretary of State Colin Powell has adamantly argued
that such an attack would destroy the international coalition that Bush
has assembled."
In the meantime, President
Bush and Powell are facing an uprising among supporters of Israel in Congress
who support the "Wolfowitz cabal."
The Oct. 19 issue of Forward,
an influential Jewish weekly, reported that Rep. Eliot Engel (D-N.Y.) defiantly
declared that "Israel is not going to be sacrificed for the war on terrorism"
and that Brett Heimov, an aide to Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) had charged
that while "there hasn't been a real selling out of Israel" that "they
[Bush and Powell] are waiting for that excuse and it hasn't quite come
yet." Forward also reported that an unnamed House staff member alleged
that the Bush administration is giving Israel "the cold shoulder" by supporting
the establishment of a Palestinian state and by attempting to build bridges
to the Arab and Muslim worlds.
The refusal by Bush and Powell
to blame Iraq for the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks has left Israel's supporters
in Congress and in the "Wolfowitz cabal" scrambling to generate support
by both the public and in government policy-making circles for an all-out
attack on Iraq-and then the remaining Muslim states that Israel perceives
to be enemies to survival.
While the Times report admitted
that "Both Powell and Vice President Dick Cheney have said there is no
evidence linking Iraq to the attacks" of Sept. 11, Wolf owitz and his allies,
such as Richard Perle, a member of the Defense Policy Board-described as
"a prestigious bipartisan board of national security experts that advises
the Pentagon,"-are promoting "the need to turn to Iraq as soon as the initial
phase of the war against Afghanistan and bin Laden and his organization
is over."
Amazingly, a two-day series
of meetings of the Defense Policy Board, which included Wolfowitz and Perle,
did not even brief Powell despite the saber-rattling tone underlying the
board's efforts.
The Times reported that Powell
was "surprised" and "quite distressed" to learn that the president's deputy
national security advisor, Stephen Hadley, inserted what was described
as "a far-reaching sentence" into a letter sent to the United Nations Security
Council threatening possible action against Iraq and other na tions that
Wolfowitz, Perle and their allies are alleging are sponsors of terrorism.
What the Times writers did
not mention are the following facts about Wolfowitz and Perle re ported
by AFP based on the pioneering investigative work of the late Spotlight
correspondent Andrew St. George:
Perle is perhaps the singular
driving force behind a closely-knit group (including Wolfowitz) whose origins
in the modern-day national security establishment go back to the 1970s
when Perle was a top aide to the late Sen. Henry M. Jackson (D-Wash.).
Not only was Perle a key
"inside" player on behalf of the Israeli lobby on Capitol Hill, but he
also played a critical part in the selection of a formal body-officially
known as "Team B"-that functioned as a purportedly "independent" advisory
council on intelligence estimates relating to Soviet aims and capabilities.
In fact, the members of Team
B were bound by their determination to make literally every aspect of U.S.
foreign policy geared toward policies that would prove beneficial to Israel.
Solid evidence compiled
over the years by a variety of independent researchers in and out of government
indicates that Team B exaggerated Soviet influence.
Team B's purpose in so doing
was to advance the theory that Israel was vital to U.S. defense against
the Soviets and that Israel therefore needed vast infusions of U.S. tax
dollars.
Today Wolfowitz and Perle,
working with a "war party" connected to the circles spawned by "Team B,"
are using the new war on terrorism to force the military to carry out a
geopolitical agenda that not only represents the interests of a

FW: Well, here's one way to get to Heaven...
  ARKANSAS CITY (EAP) -- A Little
Rock woman was killed
yesterday after leaping through her
moving car's sun roof during an incident
best described as "a mistaken rapture"
by dozens of eye witnesses.
Thirteen other people were injured
after a twenty-car
pile up resulted from people trying
to avoid hitting the woman who was
apparently convinced that the rapture
was occurring when she saw twelve
people floating up into the air, and
then passed a man on the side of the
road who she claimed was Jesus.
"She started screaming "He's back,
He's
back" and climbed right out of the
sunroof and jumped off the roof of the
car," said Everet Williams, husband
of 28-year-old Georgann Williams who was
pronounced dead at the scene. 
"I was slowing down but she wouldn't wait
till I stopped," Williams said. 
She thought the rapture was happening and
was convinced that Jesus was gonna
lift her up into the sky,"
he went on to say.
"This is the strangest thing I've seen
since
I've been on the force," said Paul
Madison, first officer on the scene.
Madison questioned the man who looked
like Jesus and
discovered that he was dressed up
as Jesus and was on his way to a toga
costume party when the tarp covering
the bed of his pickup truck came loose
and released twelve blow up sex dolls
filled with helium which floated up
into the air.
Ernie Jenkins, 32, of Fort Smith, who's
been told by
several of his friends that he looks
like Jesus, pulled over and lifted his
arms into the air in frustration,
and said "Come back here," just as the
Williams' car passed him, and Mrs.
Williams was sure that it was Jesus
lifting people up into the sky as
they passed by him, according to her
husband, who says his wife loved Jesus
more than anything else.
When asked for comments about the twelve
sex dolls, Jenkins replied "This is
all just too weird for me. I never
expected anything like this to happen."

Zionism Removed From
UN Racism Communique
8-19-1
 
GENEVA - Diplomats say they've removed
anti-Israeli remarks in a statement
being prepared for a United Nations conference
on racism at the end of the
month.
The United States and Israel had both threatened
to boycott the meeting, set
to begin in Durban, South Africa on Aug.
31, unless the text was changed.
Arab states wanted the document to single
out Israel as a "racist" occupying
power, but the UN doesn't equate Zionism
with racism so the final communique
was changed.
Not all hurdles have been removed, however.
Officials are still wrangling
over how to address recent bloodshed in
the Middle East without offending
either side.
Last week in Geneva, negotiations over
the exact wording of the conference's
final document collapsed. More negotiations
are scheduled.
Even if the sensitive issue of language
is dealt with, a boycott may still go
ahead.   The United States is
also upset over a plan to include colonial
slavery and victims' reparations on the
conference's agenda.
It's not the first time Washington has
bickered with UN officials over topics
for a meeting on racism. The U.S. boycotted
two previous conferences for
similar reasons.

Arrested Russian 'worked for FBI'
More to Adobe case than meets eye By
Mike Magee, 19/07/01 04:12:49 BST
AN INTERVIEW ON the Elcomsoft site in Russian
has revealed a close
relationship between the firm whose employee
was put in jail Monday and the
FBI.
According to the Russian language interview
with Alexander Katalov, president
of Elcomsoft and an ex-KGB operative himself,
his firm had performed work for
the FBI itself.
An INQUIRER reader has translated the interview
for us, the original of which
can be found here.
Here is his translation in full:
The Elcomsoft president, Mr. Alexander
Katalov gives details on the arrest of
his company emloyee, Dmytry Sklyarov.
Alexander, how was Dmitry arrested?
On Sunday there was a DefCon conference.
Dmitry had delivered there our
"eBook Security: Theory and practise"
presentation. On Monday morning, at
around 9am, he was checking out of the
hotel together with another employee.
On the way out of the hotel, two individuals
stopped them. They presented
their FBI IDs and immediately handcuffed
Dmitry. Detained, the employees were
put into separate rooms. With Andrey they
interviewed him for just half an
hour, asking what and how, and he was
allowed to leave the building right
after. He had tried to get me on the phone,
but could not get through. So,
after he called our Moscow office at around
9:30am, Moscow had already
notified me via e-mail about his arrest.
Is Dmitry Sklyarov the sole "Advanced eBook
Processor" program author, the
very program he got arrested because of?
Naturally, he is not the only one. Moreover,
he was developing the
"scientific part" of the program, its
algorithms. This work is a part of his
dissertation. There were at least three
employees, working on the program;
the program itself comes under Elkomsoft
brand. However, it seems that now
the Americans are trying to present the
situation as a hacking, conducted by
a single Russian hacker.
So, does it look like Dmitry was detained
only due to his DefCon
presentation?
Probably yes. Though he introduced himself
as an Elcomsoft employee, the
company that developed the product.
What are your lawers saying?
Our lawers were notified on arrest in the
evening, when everything was closed
down already. That's how it was developing:
after I received the email, I
called the Russian Consulate. They proposed
to wait until noon at consulate,
assuming that the Americans would let
Dmitry board the flight en-route LAX,
where Aeroflot flight would bring him
back to Russia. But he did not show up
at the airport, so the consulate initialized
a standard offical request to
American authorities. They spent around
two hours on that and we all realized
that Dmitry will not fly away for sure.
In fact we even did not know where
Dmitry was physically located. At around
2pm the request was filed but not
till the end of working day, till 6pm
was there any answer. So on Monday we
had no info. Tuesday morning, when our
office had started its new working day
in Moscow, Dmitry's wife called in. She
said that she had a call from the US,
and via an interpreter she was told that
her husband is under arrest. She was
not allowed to talk to him directly. This
US call was at around 4am Moscow
time, so it was still Monday, around 3pm
here in US. So this meant that the
authorities had not responded to the request
filed by the Russian Consulate
on Monday.
Are there any offical charges already?
As far as I can tell from the words of
Dima's wife (and she did not
understand it all clearly due to early
morning situation itself, plus she
also has a 2-month old baby), it looks
like charges were preferred yesterday.
And it was decided that Dmitry would be
spending time in the jail, because
there are no people ready to pay the bail
bonds. Bear in mind, the US
authorities had never notified either
the Russian Consulate or us.
After this case and another recent arrest
of Russian hackers it looks like
the FBI has acquired a new way of working:
to lure Russian programmers out of
Russia and to arrest them in the US under
local legislation. Before this
time, were your employees attending similar
events to DefCon? Have there been
similar situations before?
Well, we did attend Black Hat conference
without any problem. Moreover, in
April we had sponsored the conference
on informational security for the US
law inforcement agencies. So the arrest
we are talking about is relevant to
the accusation against Dmitry. Filed by
the Adobe Corporation only, it does
not concern our company business practices.
Dmitry's wife was told that
Dmitry is to get relocated to California.
And the San Diego agent arrested
him, exactly where Adobe is stationed.
Don't you think that your program for breaking
the copywrited Adobe files
breaches the law?
I don't think so. Adobe asserts that the
limitation to copy of e-book is to
be defined (set) by the copywriter. However,
if you compare same books saved
in Microsoft and Adobe formats, you
