Australia: Ten-year-old policy of detention is failing (fwd)
-- Forwarded message -- Date: Mon, 28 Jan 2002 18:05:24 + From: ainews [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Australia: Ten-year-old policy of detention is failing * News Release Issued by the International Secretariat of Amnesty International * 28 January 2002 ASA 12/001/2002 17/02 As the risk of fatalities increases in ongoing unrest within Australian immigration detention centres, it is clear that the ten-year-old policy of mandatory detention is failing and needs urgent review, Amnesty International said today. Of immediate concern is the mental health of the detainees -- hunger strikes, self-harm and attempted suicides of detainees have obvious roots in extreme desperation. This is created by the combined effects of prolonged incarceration, social isolation and increasing uncertainty about the future, with many people fearing for their lives if returned to their home countries. No other country imprisons hundreds of children, and thousands of men and women for lacking a visa under a national policy requiring their automatic and indefinite detention, without charge or review by a court. Contrary to the government's line, the policy of detention has not deterred refugees -- as most of them are found to be -- trying to arrive without authorization. The government claims that refugees with valid travel documents are welcome, but people fleeing persecution often cannot apply for visa at distant embassies and then wait months or years for approval. Locking up thousands of refugee applicants has proven not to stop new attempts at reaching Australia. Are Australians really willing to pay any price, human and financial, to maintain a 10-year-old detention policy which has failed to halt desperate actions to seek refuge? the organization asked. The focus on the physical conditions in the detention centres detracts from the key issue behind the unrest - mental health. Medical professionals and informed observers have repeatedly raised concerns about the detainees' mental health and the standards of medical care in detention. Amnesty International called on the Australian government to relieve detainee anxieties by easing some of the pressures which underlie their desperate actions. At the very least, families with children and those already found to meet refugee criteria should be released, pending completion of their visa approvals. Detention should be the exception, not the rule, and determined case by case. Ultimately, parliament should reconsider the underlying factors contributing to acts of desperation in detention, and enable a substantial increase of efforts to address the causes of international refugee flows, notably human rights abuses. Amnesty International does not condone any acts of self-harm or violence, whether committed by asylum-seekers or others protesting their conditions. Neither does it believe the Australian government can escape its share of the responsibility for the circumstances driving detainees into desperation. Ongoing fighting and instability in Afghanistan, home to many of the detainees, makes it unlikely that Afghan asylum-seekers can safely return in the near future. The Australian experiment with automatic mass detention proves once again the need for increased international cooperation to slow refugee flows and provide humane conditions and solutions for those unable to return home in safety.

What's A Military Take-over, Daddy?
Pentagon Plans New Command For U.S. Four-Star Officer Would Oversee Homeland Defense By Bradley Graham Washington Post Staff Writer Sunday, January 27, 2002; Page A01 The Pentagon has decided to ask the White House for approval to set up a new four-star command to coordinate federal troops used to defend North America, part of an intensified effort to bolster homeland security, defense officials said. The move was prompted by the new domestic security demands placed on the military after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and the Bush administration's declared war on terrorism. Although the Pentagon has regional commanders in chief, known as CINCs, who are responsible for Europe, the Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East and South Asia, none exists for U.S. forces in the United States and Canada. The proposed change would give a single four-star officer authority over such domestic deployments as Air Force jets patrolling above U.S. cities, Navy ships running coastal checks and Army National Guard troops policing airports and border crossings. Before September, military leaders had resisted the idea of a homeland CINC (pronounced sink), reflecting a traditional aversion to -- and legal limits on -- the use of federal armed forces for domestic law enforcement. Opposition also existed outside the Pentagon on both the political left and right, with civil libertarians and right-wing militia groups alike warning against military forces encroaching on areas traditionally considered the responsibility of civilian emergency response, law enforcement and health agencies. But in recent months, as military air, sea and land patrols pressed into action by the Pentagon have answered to several four-star commanders, the Defense Department's top military officers have come to accept the need for streamlining the chain of command. Earlier opposition from such groups as the American Civil Liberties Union has also waned, although concerns persist about possible mission creep and the risk that any military forces deployed around the country could end up threatening individual rights. Initially, the military chiefs had argued for assigning the homeland defense mission to one of two commands already headquartered in the United States -- either the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) in Colorado, which is responsible for protecting U.S. skies, or the Joint Forces Command in Virginia, which has been charged with guarding the maritime approaches to North America and the land defense of the continental United States. The thinking was that setting up an entirely new command would entail needless additional bureaucracy and expense. But Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld has settled on creating a new command rather than loading an existing one with additional responsibilities, according to four officials in different branches of the Pentagon familiar with the plan. Currently, the general who heads NORAD also runs the U.S. Space Command, which oversees the nation's military satellites and computer networks. The admiral who leads the Joint Forces Command is in charge of developing new ways the different services can fight together, and he serves as head of NATO's North Atlantic region. All the chiefs and CINCs have seen the plan and have signed on to it, although it has not yet been briefed to the president, a senior military officer said yesterday. Everyone is moving down the track toward realizing it. Defense officials also said that the geographic responsibilities of the new command would likely extend beyond U.S. borders to the rest of North America. Among other advantages, this would facilitate the transfer of the air defense mission from NORAD, which is operated jointly with Canada. It's not going to be just a homeland defense command, another official said. It's going to be a command that has responsibility beyond homeland defense. But many of the details for implementing the new command structure have yet to be worked out, including where it would be located, what it would be called, who would lead it and exactly which functions it would take from existing CINCs. There's still the hope this new command can be created without a net increase in headquarters staff across all the CINC-doms, the senior officer said. Another official said: It's going to take time to work out how you go about moving responsibilities from this or that CINC to this new command. This particular review will go ahead and establish the command, and then we'll lay out a series of considerations over the course of the next several months to make it all happen. Responsibility for coordinating federal activities in homeland defense rests with Tom Ridge, who heads the White House's Office of Homeland Security, which was set up after the Sept. 11 attacks. While the new Pentagon command would doubtless have

Enron May Spark Revolt of Professionals
Enron May Spark Revolt of Professionals By James K. Galbraith James K. Galbraith, a professor at the University of Texas at Austin, is the author, most recently, of Inequality and Industrial Change: A Global View. January 25, 2002 NOWADAYS there are three classes in America: working people at the bottom, professionals above them, a tiny elite at the top. Democrats represent the professionals, Republicans represent the CEOs. No one, much, speaks for working people, who must rely on the sympathy of leading Democrats for most of the little they get. Our politics accordingly mirrors corporate life, with an opposition out of Dilbert, grumpy but ineffective. Thus, after the 2000 election, Democrats abandoned the black voters of Florida, who were disenfranchised by the tens of thousands. In the tax-bill looting that followed in Congress, there was just enough grease for the upper middle to buy its silence. Meanwhile, raids on job safety, on the public schools, on unions, and the attempt to demolish Social Security fell on the lower orders. In each case, the aim was elite enrichment, amid the indifference of the professional class. Enron could change that. In details complex, the scandal is essentially simple. A handful of rich people, closely tied to the Texas Republican Party led by Gov. George W. Bush and Sen. Phil Gramm, decided to become richer still. Their grand strategy included deregulation of energy, deregulation of derivatives (an arcane financial device), corrupt accounting practices, overseas tax scams, U.S. diplomatic pressure (delivered in 2001 by Dick Cheney himself, on India, where Enron had sold a white elephant power plant). And then, as the game unwound, they sold their own stock while freezing employee pension accounts. In the end, the gang made off with more than a billion dollars, that we know of. Enron's real business was politics. Energy deregulation helped create the web of commodities in which Enron traded. Derivatives deregulation (courtesy of Gramm and Rep. Richard Armey) shielded that market from review. Consulting contracts to the auditors bought complicity; payments from auditors to politicians fended off the Securities and Exchange Commission. Enron paid for favors promptly: $100,000 to the Democrats in 1997 to push the Indians around, $25,000 to Texas Gov. Rick Perry one day after Enron's Mexico chief got to run the Public Utilities Commission in Texas. Wendy Gramm, who chaired Enron's audit committee, got nearly $2 million. We still don't know exactly what Enron contributed, in intellectual terms, to Cheney's energy policy, or to Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill's defense of overseas tax shelters. But it paid well for it: over time, the big boss George Bush got more than $600,000 in Enron cash. That we know of. Enron reveals, for the first time, just how rot at the top can cut against professional interests. Those were not only small fry, but modest millionaires in some cases, who lost their 401(k)s. A professional's pension can't be replaced. And there is nothing a hardworking middle manager fears more than to end up on Social Security like ordinary folk. Administration officials proudly refused to intervene on Enron's behalf once bankruptcy loomed. But here's the catch: They weren't asked to. By then, their friends had already cashed out. Saving the professionals, or the company, was not on the agenda. White House economist Lawrence Lindsey (who'd gotten $50,000 as an Enron adviser in 2000) reviewed the great bankruptcy's risks to the economy at large. He concluded they were small; he may not be wrong. Most of the direct damage landed on a few thousand people in Houston. But we shouldn't be entirely sure. Corporate America runs on the collaboration of professionals with the elites. In big and small ways, managers, accountants, lawyers and engineers make the system work. In each firm, they have to trust that the big boys are not stealing from them. Through their pension funds, they control vast sums that they must also entrust back to corporate America - through the stock market. Before 1988, the professionals of Japan also felt that by working and saving, borrowing and investing, everyone would get rich. The crash of that year taught otherwise. The Japanese middle classes felt betrayed, because they were betrayed. Their money, what was left of it, went back under the mattress, where it remains. Japan has not recovered in 14 years. Suppose that American professionals come to feel the same way? The economist Thorstein Veblen, back in the days of Teapot Dome, wrote that the revolution here would not be led by workers. Rather, revolution could only come to America in the hands of technicians, the General Staff of the industrial system, a normally contented class, harmless and docile, in ordinary times. The technicians however, held the real power. And they might, someday, realize that the absentee landlords, the Vested
Senate Report on Money Laundering
http://webcenter.newssearch.netscape.com/aolns_display.adp?key=2002012906150 00148680_aolns.src Senate Report on Money Laundering WASHINGTON (AP) - For drug dealers, dictators or terrorists looking to launder illicit money, U.S. brokerage firms and investment banks may be convenient and anonymous places to go, Senate investigators say. A report being released Tuesday found that securities firms have tens of thousands of offshore clients channeling billions of potentially illicit dollars into their U.S. accounts. The banking industry already has come under scrutiny for its use by money launderers. But the securities industry also ``has clear money laundering risks that need to be addressed,'' Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., chairman of the Senate Governmental Affairs investigative subcommittee, said. Subcommittee investigators found that all the 22 U.S. securities firms examined had numerous offshore customers and many of the firms said they couldn't provide an accurate count of those clients because their data systems didn't identify offshore entities. The clients include offshore corporations, trusts, banks and insurance companies. The securities firms, which were not named, had more than 45,000 offshore clients total, with an estimated $140 billion in assets in their accounts - of which some $137 billion came from offshore corporations and trusts, according to the report. The high-risk accounts represent about 2 percent of the U.S. firms' total accounts, it says. The investigators didn't find any evidence of illegal activity in the 22 firms that they surveyed. Levin, who has investigated money laundering in the nation's banking industry, was testifying at a Senate Banking Committee hearing Tuesday on new anti-money-laundering rules for banks and securities firms that came in response to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Also appearing were high-ranking officials from the Justice and Treasury departments, the Federal Reserve and the Securities and Exchange Commission, which oversees the brokerage industry. Businesses in offshore jurisdictions - such as the Caribbean and tiny islands in the South Pacific - benefit from financial secrecy laws, which can encourage laundering of dirty money. The fight against money laundering gained new urgency after the attacks in New York City, Washington and southwestern Pennsylvania and revelations that the al-Qaida network of Osama bin Laden, the prime suspect in the attacks, uses money from Islamic charities and front companies. A new anti-terrorism law enacted in October includes rules to combat money laundering in U.S. banks and securities firms, notably requirements that they verify their customers' identities and report suspicious transactions to law enforcement agencies. The rules for banks took effect on Christmas Day. Final rules for securities firms must be issued by June. Securities businesses include brokerage firms, investment banks, investment advisers, bond dealers and mutual funds. Wall Street had lobbied against some of the rules for securities firms, such as one prohibiting them from maintaining accounts with foreign shell banks that exist mainly on paper and lack concrete operations. ``The industry has no patience for money laundering and we have been working and want to continue to work with the government to eliminate any money laundering,'' Stuart Kaswell, general counsel of the Securities Industry Association, Wall Street's major trade group, said Monday. ``We don't want this money in our business. ... We want to make these rules work,'' Kaswell said. He declined comment on the Senate panel's report, saying the group hadn't yet seen it. Law enforcement agencies have been concerned about the securities industry's potential vulnerability to money laundering, which involves the movement of profits from drug or arms trafficking, political corruption, prostitution and other illicit activities through a series of accounts or businesses to disguise them as proceeds of legitimate business. An October report by the General Accounting Office, Congress' investigative arm, showed that many U.S. securities firms do not have voluntary controls against money laundering by customers. After the Sept. 11 attacks, the SEC asked all securities firms to check their records for accounts held or transactions by any of the suspects in the case identified by the FBI, or by any of the people and groups with suspected links to terrorism - including bin Laden - named in President Bush's orders to freeze their assets.

The Traitors Among US
- Original Message - From: Carol A. Valentine [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, January 26, 2002 4:22 PM Subject: The Traitors Among Us. Stunning Wash. Post Article The Traitors Among Us. Stunning Wash. Post Article by Carol A. Valentine Curator, Waco Holocaust Electronic Museum http://www.Public-Action.com Copyright, January, 2002 May be reproduced for non-commercial purposes January 26 -- If you want to understand what has happened to our beloved country, you will not want to miss this article in today's Washington Post, pg. B11: Israel's Evangelical Approach. U.S. Christian Zionists Nurtured as Political, Tourism Force. I enclose both the URL and the text, below (Attachment 1). For further understanding of this vitally important subject, I also enclose the text of article written by C.E. Carlson, Kulchur Klash. (Attachment 2.) In particular, read the sections following the words ARE PHARISEES EXTINCT? Now, a story which puts some flesh on the issue at hand: The brother of a friend of mine works in the South. He was discussing US foreign policy with a fellow worker, a retired career Navy man who describes himself as a fundamentalist Christian. The Navy man is a devote of TeeVee preacher Pat Robertson. My friend's brother was arguing that the US policy towards Israel amounts to treason to the US. During the discussion, the subject of the USS Liberty came up. Believe it or not, this Navy man had never heard of Israel's attack on the USS Liberty in 1967. My friend's brother referred him to http://www.USSLiberty.org The next day, the Navy man came into the office and said: I don't care what Israel did to the USS Liberty. I put my God ahead of my country. There it is in a nutshell. One story--but it superbly illustrates the point. Fundamentalist Christians (sometimes called Fundies) are, characteristically, not Christian at all. They reject Jesus's notion of the universality of mankind, the belief that each of us is equally precious in the eyes of the Lord. They rely on the Talmud, the written laws and commentaries of the Pharisees, not the New Testament. Religiously, Fundies are fellow travelers in the dark political cult of Talmudism, sometimes called Zionism and sometimes called Judaism. Fundies will do anything for Israel and the Jews, whom they worship as God or God's little brother. They are only too happy to be the Jews' slaves, and insist we all join in their bondage. Certainly their beliefs are anti-Christian. More to the point: Characteristically, Fundies are traitors to America. Yes,they are the first to wave the American flag in order to spill the blood of those who stand in the way of Israeli ambition. Along with Jews, Fundies scream loudest for Arab blood, even though all rational analysis shouts that Israel and israeli agents in America were responsible for 9-11. They will do anything to help Israel achieve world domination. Fundies hate the Bill of Rights and the American ideal of equal justice under law. Need evidence of this? Ask your friendly next-door so called Christian fundamentalist about the Waco Holocaust. Ask them if they have ever lifted their voice up against what befell the 80-odd goyim in Waco in 1993. Then find out what their attitude is to the death of Jews in WWII or at the hands of Palestinian freedom fighters in contemporary Israel. Thus you will see that only the Jews really matter. Only the Jews qualify as human. Thus Fundies follow the teachings of the Talmud in their anti-American beliefs. ( See quotes in Attachment 3.) Zionist Christians operate as Israeli super patriots, never questioning their own loyalties to Israel or weighing them against other principles or values. As the example of the Navy man shows, this loyalty transcends all loyalty to America (or any other native country), and even overt oaths of loyalty. Most astoundingly, few people would see the Navy man's Zionism as the fundamental treason it is, and it is unlikely that his officers would have a problem with it, much less prosecute him for treason. Take your pick. Do you prefer the Jewish Zionists of the Clinton Administration, or the Christian Zionists of the Bush Administration? More and more, the Fundies and their puppet masters show their vile corruption to the world. Today's Washington Post article is an in-your-face, out-of-the closet exhibition of these truths.

Jeb Bush's Daughter Is Arrested and Charged With Prescription Fraud By Brendan Farrington Associated Press Writer Published: Jan 29, 2002 TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - Gov. Jeb Bush's 24-year-old daughter was arrested at a pharmacy drive-through window Tuesday on charges of trying to buy the anti-anxiety drug Xanax with a fraudulent prescription. Authorities said Noelle Bush apparently posed as a doctor and called in the phony prescription after suffering a panic attack Monday evening. Bush, who was supposed to start a new job Tuesday at a software company, was jailed and released pending a Jan. 31 arraignment. She could get up to five years in prison and a $5,000 fine if convicted.President Bush's twin daughters, Jenna and Barbara, have gotten in trouble for underage drinking. Jeb and Columba Bush had said previously that one of their three children struggled with a drug problem.

Flame-Retardant Chemical Could Prove as Serious a Pollutant as PCBs or DDT By Matt Crenson The Associated Press Published: Jan 29, 2002 A chemical flame retardant commonly used in foam furniture padding is accumulating so rapidly in the breast milk of nursing mothers that environmentalists and some scientists are calling for a ban on it. Little is known about the toxic nature of polybrominated diphenyl ether, commonly known by the acronym PBDE. Early studies show it poses some of the same dangers as PCBs and DDT. Those two chemicals were banned in the United States decades ago for their myriad detrimental effects on animal and human health. Environmentalists advocate a ban on PBDE as well. One form of the chemical will be banned next year in Europe, where the law requires proof of safety before a new agent can be used in the environment. U.S. law requires proof of harm or risk before a chemical is banned. But the chemical industry argues that more research is needed before banning something that protects lives. Producers of PBDE say there is no evidence that it will ever reach harmful levels, while its benefits as a flame retardant are well-known. Adding PBDE to foam furniture padding, television casings and other plastics reduces by 45 percent the risk of death and injury due to fire, the chemical manufacturers say. We're not talking about aesthetics. People use brominated flame retardants because they save lives, said Robert Campbell, a spokesman for Great Lakes Chemical Corp. in West Lafayette, Ind. Like PCBs and DDT, PBDE is a persistent organic pollutant, or POP. POPs can remain in the environment for years without breaking down. Some of these pollutants have such an affinity for fat that they build up in the bodies of both animals and humans from before birth until death. It seems that PBDEs are an important - but generally unrecognized - persistent organic pollutant in the United States, Robert C. Hale, a professor at the Virginia Institute of Marine Sciences, and five colleagues wrote in the journal Nature a few months ago. Persistent organic pollutants are so difficult to purge from the environment that 25 years after being banned, trace amounts of PCBs can still be measured in human blood. Waterways such as New York's Hudson River and Wisconsin's Fox River are being dredged at costs running into the hundreds of millions to rid them of PCB contamination. In many waters, anglers are warned not to eat the fish they catch or to limit their consumption to one or two servings a month. There is an enormous need to act quickly when there is a problem with a chemical that is not only toxic but is persistent and accumulates, because it will continue to get worse before it gets better, said physician Gina Solomon, a senior scientist at the Natural Resources Defense Council. Industry uses several forms of PBDE to decrease the flammability of various plastics. Only one of those types - used mostly in polyurethane foam furniture padding - has been found in the environment and breast milk. According to Environmental Protection Agency records, Great Lakes Chemical is the only U.S. manufacturer of that form of PBDE. At this point all bets are open in terms of how it's getting into the environment, said Hale, who stops short of calling for a ban on the pollutant, which was developed in the 1960s. He has hypothesized that discarded furniture is a major source of PBDE in the environment. Whenever anybody tosses out an old sofa, he explained, nature goes to work. Water and sunlight break the foam into crumbling pieces that eventually are ground to dust. Insects have also been observed munching away at the material. From those humble beginnings the chemical travels all the way up the food chain to humans. Hale has found PBDEs virtually everywhere he has looked: In a small river along the North Carolina-Virginia border, he found fish with the highest levels of PBDE ever recorded in an animal. He has also collected sewage sludge samples from four states, all with high concentrations of PBDE. Swedish scientists first documented the increase of PBDE in humans. For 30 years, Sweden has sampled the breast milk of nursing mothers to track exposure to dioxin, PCBs and other pollutants that accumulate in body fat. The United States has no similar program. In 1998, Swedish scientists reported that levels of PBDE in breast milk had increased 40-fold since 1972. Since the Swedish discovery, the chemical has been found in Swedish pike, Virginia catfish and North Sea cod. Seals, moose and reindeer all carry PBDE in their body fat and like humans, transmit it to their nursing young. PBDE has even been found in the blubber of sperm whales in the Arctic Ocean. Even more alarming to environmentalists was the revelation in December by the journal Environmental Science Technology that North American mothers have breast-milk PBDE levels at least 40 times the highest concentrations

EU vice-president to claim US site spies on European business
To: Electronic Warfare [EMAIL PROTECTED], Subject: IUFO NEWS: FWD [forteana] Echelon in Yorkshire http://yorkshirepost.co.uk/scripts/editorial2.cgi?cid=4aid=434459 EU vice-president to claim US site spies on European business VICE-PRESIDENT of the European Parliament, Gerhardt Schmid, is expected to argue that the Echelon system used at the United States base at Menwith Hill, near Harrogate, is used for industrial espionage when he speaks in the town next week. Dr Schmid compiled the European Parliament's report on Echelon, which is believed to intercept millions of telephone calls, faxes, e-mails and other electronic communications and pass confidential information to the US National Security Agency. The German Socialist Euro MP has accepted an invitation from the Menwith Hill Forum which monitors activities at the 560-acre intelligence site to speak at the Friends Meeting House in Queen Parade, Harrogate, on Thursday at 7.30pm. The signals intelligence station already has a key role in Echelon, but its importance will grow when hundreds of staff are transferred to Menwith Hill from Bad Abling the National Security Agency's third largest monitoring station, which is in the Bavarian Alps. Although the US Government has denied the existence of Echelon, it is known to be shared with Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Britain. UK Government sources justify it as a means of gathering information on terrorist organisations and international drug cartels. But Dr Schmid is expected to argue that Echelon is also used by the United States Government to gather sensitive economic data from European countries, which is allegedly being passed on to benefit industrial rivals across the Atlantic. One example is said to be a £1bn contract lost by Airbus Industrie to Boeing and McDonnel Douglas. Dr Schmid, who will tell the Forum that the uncontrolled use of Echelon is potentially detrimental to European economies and puts at risk thousands of jobs, will also explain what the European Parliament is doing to try to protect citizens' rights. The Forum's chairman, John Eveleigh said: This public meeting continues our aim to inform local people of the activities and genuine concerns we have around the Menwith Hill surveillance station. I urge anyone interested in finding out more about Echelon to attend.

Justice Department covers nude statues
[If there was any doubt about the repressed sexuality of the chief of law enforcement officer of the land this should remove it. Shades of Dr. Strangelove. steve] Justice Department covers nude statues http://www.salon.com/politics/wire/2002/01/29/justice_department/index.html - - - - - - - - - - - - By Christopher Newton Jan. 29, 2002 | WASHINGTON (AP) -- No longer will the attorney general be photographed in front of two partially nude statues in the Great Hall of the Department of Justice. The department spent $8,000 on blue drapes that hide the two giant, aluminum art deco statues, said spokesman Shane Hix. For aesthetic reasons, he said, the drapes were occasionally hung in front of the statues before formal events. The department used to rent the drapes, but has now purchased them and left them hanging. The drapes provide a nice background for television cameras, Hix said. ABC News reported that Attorney General John Ashcroft ordered the statues covered because he didn't like being photographed in front of them. Since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, Ashcroft has been photographed several times in front of the female statue that represents the Spirit of Justice. The 10- to 12-foot statue has its arms raised and a toga draped over its body, but a single breast is completely exposed. The other statue, of a man with a cloth covering his midsection, is called the Majesty of Law. Both statues were installed in the 1930s when the building was finished, according to the Justice Department. Hix said the Justice Department bought the drapes to avoid having to rent them every time the agency had a formal event. The drapes cost about $2,000 to rent. He also said Ashcroft was not involved in the decision. The attorney general was not even aware of the situation, he said. Obviously, he has more important things to do. The Great Hall is an ornate, two-story room that the department uses for ceremonies and special speeches. In the past, snagging a photo of the attorney general in front of the statues has been something of a sport for photographers. When former Attorney General Edwin Meese released a report on pornography in the 1980s, photographers dived to the floor to capture the image of him raising the report in the air, with the partially nude female statue behind him.
