<i>Thanks to the Frank Church and Pike Committees investigations which
George HW Bush fought every step of the way.....Carter's Director of the
CIA, Admiral Stansfield Turner, fired over 800 operators. This
"priatization" of covert is said to have created a significant
infrastructure of private intelligence operatives, including a group
called "The Company." There had to be money to take care of these guys
referring to "Deadly Secrets" and connections like General Manuel
Noriega (on the payroll). This launched "The Company" based outside of
St. Louis and Barry Seal into the drug smuggling career. According to a
DEA spokesman, "they had air-to-ground radios so sophisticated we don't
even have them on our airplanes."</i><br />

Nesta H. Webster, World Revolution (Boston: Small, Maynard and Co., 1921). I much prefer the revised and updated edition published by Britons, Devon, England, 1971, with index and bibliography. This contains the important corrections Webster made prior to her death in 1960, always ignored by those who attempt to discredit her as anti-Semitic. Nesta H. Webster, Secret Societies and Subversive Movements (London: Boswell, 1924) very important, but unfortunately the last two chapters were never revised. There are unauthorized paperback reprints of all three.<br />

<blockquote>
America's already descending into economic anarchy. We're all trapped in a historic economic supercycle, a turning point that must bleed through a no-man's land of lawless self-destructive anarchy before a neo-capitalistic world can re-emerge. Investors tell me they "feel" it at a deep level, "know" it's happening. They keep asking: "What's the best investment strategy to prepare now?"<br />
<br />
This is no joke, folks. Are you prepared? Or preparing? Will your family survive in a post-apocalyptic world, when anarchy is rampant in America? Look at Washington, Wall Street and Corporate America today. You know it's already begun.<br />
<br />
You are witnessing a fundamental breakdown of the American dream, a systemic breakdown of our democracy and our capitalism, a breakdown driven by the blind insatiable greed of Wall Street: Dysfunctional government, insane markets, economy on the brink. Multiply that many times over and see a world in total disarray. Ignore it now, tomorrow will be too late.<br />
Not a war about ideology, but an economic game-changer<br />
<br />
This is a war to control 299 million Americans. A war waged by the "Happy Conspiracy" Jack Bogle profiled in his 2004 "Battle for the Soul of Capitalism," a war machine of Fat Cat Bankers, CEOs, 42,000 mercenary lobbyists and a Congress held hostage to unlimited campaign donations. Their conspiracy has been waging this war against Americans for decades, long before the Supreme Court exposed their dirty secret.<br />
<br />
Yes, your enemy is that "Happy Conspiracy:" It has degraded into a pseudo-capitalism with no conscience, no sense of the public good, hell-bent on controlling America's mind, your money and the global markets for its own selfish ends. And eventually it will trigger the game-changing global-debt bomb, the third global meltdown of the century that finally ignites the Great Depression II, plunging us into an era of anarchy.<br />
<br />
Investors keep asking: "If it is coming, how do I invest? Buy gold? Commodities? Hedge? Short trading? TIPS? Hoard cash? Buy and hold? Lazy Portfolios?" What if the Dow sinks below 5,000? Maybe the worst-case scenario recently predicted by Bob Prechter: A deeper plunge to the 1,000 range? Imagine a global depression, a bear market dragging on for decades: "How do I protect my family? Can I ever retire? What do I invest in? How can anyone prepare?"<br />
<br />
How America's two classes are preparing for a descent into anarchy<br />
<br />
As America descends into anarchy your family's survival and your ability to retire will depend on which of America's two economic classes you belong to out of our total of roughly 300 million citizens:<br />
<br />
1. "Average Joe & Jane" Americans: You're one of 299 million Main Street Americans. Average income is $50,000, only 10% of the average bonuses paid to Wall Street's Fat-Cat Bankers. Or you're already one of America's 20% underemployed ... maybe on food stamps ... maybe among the 47 million with no medical insurance ... your retirement assets are about $50,000, a year's survival. And you are "mad-as-hell" you're not working "inside" the "Happy Conspiracy."<br />
<br />
2. "Happy Conspiracy" Insiders: You're one of the lucky million or so elite Insiders in the "Happy Conspiracy." You may work for a Fat-Cat Bank that American taxpayers bailed out last year so you pocketed a 2009 bonus gift of somewhere between $600,000 and $10 million. Maybe you're a Corporate American CEO. Maybe you're on the Forbes 400 list. Or you're a U.S. Senator.<br />
<br />
Here's how these savvy Insiders are preparing: In his 2008 best-seller, "Wealth, War and Wisdom," hedge fund manager Barton Biggs, a highly respected Insider in the "Happy Conspiracy," advised rich insiders to expect the "possibility of a breakdown of the civilized infrastructure."<br />
<br />
His advice: Make tons of money. Buy an isolated farm in the mountains. Protect family against the barbarians: "Your safe haven must be self-sufficient and capable of growing some kind of food ... It should be well-stocked with seed, fertilizer, canned food, wine, medicine, clothes, etc. Think Swiss Family Robinson."<br />
How Wall Street insiders will treat Main Street in 'The Anarchy'<br />
<br />
And when the barbarians do come, firing "a few rounds over the approaching brigands' heads would probably be a compelling persuader that there are easier farms to pillage." Imagine a scene like Port-au-Prince after the quake. Biggs is no radical anarchist, he's an establishment Insider, a great guy. We both arrived at Morgan Stanley about the same time. Biggs remained 30 years, was Morgan's chief global strategist. Ten times Institutional Investor magazine put him on Wall Street's "All-America Research Team."<br />
<br />
True, he did hedge his prediction of the coming anarchy. His odds: 1 in 10. But in an early 2009 Newsweek article, "A Generation of Destruction: Throwing money at the problem and propping up greedy banks is like trying to put out a fire by pouring gasoline on it," Biggs teased us with a bleak scenario: "Great cycles of wealth creation have usually lasted about two generations, or 60 years.

That quoted - I emphasize that you really have to be wary of all the schmucks out to empty your wallet for you. Their advice sucked. You can profitably get gold out of sea water at roughly $2,000/oz. I highly doubt it will go much higher than that. I'm of the opinion that when the crap really hits the fan....the precious metals will be worthless. Food & water will be the real precious items. To each their own though.<br />

<span style="color: white;">Basically it comes down to this: These people are selling property in a country club in an Argentine province called Salta, pitching it as a high society, wine sipping, polo playing paradise, and selling houses there for exorbitant prices. I simply answered some questions readers sent me, and very kindly explained why putting that kind of money in such a far away place, in a dirt poor province, within an already unstable third world country with a president similar to Chavez was the most stupid thing I’ve head in the last decade.

Wow! So one of the cool things about Salta is that you need to get shots for Dengue, Malaria and Yellow fever. That sounds like fun! Its of notice that in my +30 years of living in Buenos Aires yellow fever shots where never recommended unless you traveled to these poor, far away provinces. Why would that be? Because Buenos Aires sucks while Salta is the best place in the planet for rich wine drinking golf playing billionaires..hmm… or maybe is its because Salta is a poor province in the middle of nowhere?… mmm.. . And you know whats additional fun factor Dengue, a deadly disease spread by a mosquito. That theres billions of those little rascals flying around the Super Rich guy retreat is just a bonus!! Unlike Buenos Aires where during dengue season you see the trucks driving around fumigating to kill them and stop the disease.</blockquote>

Go to better life like Indiana Jones would: Die of easily curable diseases in a poor crappy hospital of Salta! You want an even cooler death?
Suffer a stroke in Casey’s Estancia Cafayate… and require a 4 hour drive, then a 2 hour plane trip to Buenos Aires to get serious medical attention! Now isn’t that fun? Of course it is!</blockquote>

I believed in 2008 that we were going to descend into the black hole some time in 2009. But the abyss never appeared. We've limped along and I then moved my timeline to 2012 (convenient I know). Now that we are in 2012 I am thinking we have a few more years. Perhaps even another round of Obama before a libertarian Ron Paul steps into the lime light to take the country over the cliff into the anarchist abyss. Time will tell the story though....I don't see another conclusion without massive changes in government as well as the power structure that are the result of the masses deciding to voluntarily constrain themselves to law - both moral and otherwise (the 10 commandments and the Constitution).<br />

THE RED PILL - <a href="http://www.projectredpill.org/freedom101.htm">The Red Pill</a><br />
<blockquote>
How can you prepare for this economic collapse now?<br />
<br />
Food<br />
<br />
• Begin stocking up your cabinets, pantries, and closets with non-perishable food items.<br />
• Purchase a portable camping stove in case your home’s electricity is shut off.<br />
• Start consuming a healthier diet so your body isn’t dependent on the processed and junk foods we’ve grown accustom to.<br />
• If your have the space in your yard, plant and grow a garden.<br />
• Stock up on vitamins and necessary supplements to ensure you stay healthy in the next Great Depression.<br />
<br />
Household<br />
<br />
• Discuss emergency plans with your family, roommates, friends, and/or loved ones.<br />
• Store a stockpile of hygiene items including deodorant, toothpaste, towels, washcloths, and toilet paper.<br />
• Make sure you have a hefty reserve of bottled water on hand, stored in a safe place.<br />
• Keep extra pillows, sheets, and blankets in your closets.<br />
• Have at least one shotgun, rifle, or handgun, if not more.<br />
• Ensure you have enough ammunition to defend yourself, your household, and your loved ones in emergency situations.<br />
<br />
Community<br />
<br />
• Get to know your neighbors.<br />
• Know who you can and cannot trust in your local community.<br />
• Gather together with like-minded individuals in your community, choose designated methods of contact, and choose a few leaders.<br />
• Pick a safe house, where your community coalition will go in emergency situations.<br />
• Pick two alternative safe houses, in case the primary safe house becomes compromised.<br />
• In times of peace, continue to make your community aware of political, social, and economic dangers.<br />
<br />
Money<br />
<br />
• Save paper and coin money in a safe place in your house.<br />
• Invest in a small or medium size safe to store your money and other valuables.<br />
• Slowly begin withdrawing from your savings and investment accounts on a regular basis. Store this money in a safe location.<br />
• If you can purchase gold, buy it. Gold retains the same value no matter how low or high the currency markets go.<br />
• Stop paying taxes to save money and force government leaders to listen to the citizenry, the people who put them in office.<br />

<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
A letter from the Boss:<br />
<br />
To All My Valued Employees,<br />
<br />
There have been some rumblings around the office about the future of this company, and more specifically, your job. As you know, the economy has changed for the worse and presents many challenges. However, the good news is this: The economy doesn't pose a threat to your job. What does threaten your job however, is the changing political landscape in this country.<br />
<br />
However, let me tell you some little tidbits of fact which might help you decide what is in your best interests.<br />
<br />
First, while it is easy to spew rhetoric that casts employers against employees, you have to understand that for every business owner there is a Back Story. This back story is often neglected and overshadowed by what you see and hear. Sure, you see me park my Mercedes outside. You've seen my big home at last years Christmas party. I'm sure; all these flashy icons of luxury conjure up some idealized thoughts about my life.<br />
<br />
However, what you don't see is the BACK STORY :<br />
<br />
I started this company 28 years ago. At that time, I lived in a 300 square foot studio apartment for 3 years. My entire living apartment was converted into an office so I could put forth 100%effort into building a company, which by the way, would eventually employ you.<br />
<br />
My diet consisted of Ramen Pride noodles because every dollar I spent went back into this company. I drove a rusty Toyota Corolla with a defective transmission. I didn't have time to date. Often times, I stayed home on weekends, while my friends went out drinking and partying. In fact, I was married to my business -- hard work, discipline, and sacrifice.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, my friends got jobs. They worked 40 hours a week and made a modest $50K a year and spent every dime they earned. They drove flashy cars and lived in expensive homes and wore fancy designer clothes. Instead of hitting the Nordstrom's for the latest hot fashion item, I was trolling through the discount store extracting any clothing item that didn't look like it was birthed in the 70's. My friends refinanced their mortgages and lived a life of luxury. I, however, did not. I put my time, my money, and my life into a business with a vision that eventually, someday, I too, will be able to afford these luxuries my friends supposedly had.<br />
<br />
So, while you physically arrive at the office at 9 am, mentally check in at about noon, and then leave at 5pm, I don't. There is no "off" button for me. When you leave the office, you are done and you have a weekend all to yourself. I unfortunately do not have the freedom. I eat, and breathe this company every minute of the day. There is no rest. There is no weekend. There is no happy hour.<br />
<br />
Every day this business is attached to my hip like a 1 year old special-needs child. You, of course, only see the fruits of that garden -- the nice house, the Mercedes, the vacations... you never realize the Back Story and the sacrifices I've made.<br />
<br />
Now, the economy is falling apart and I, the guy that made all the right decisions and saved his money, have to bailout all the people who didn't. The people that overspent their paychecks suddenly feel entitled to the same luxuries that I earned and sacrificed a decade of my life for.<br />
<br />
Yes, business ownership has is benefits but the price I've paid is steep and not without wounds. Unfortunately, the cost of running this business, and employing you, is starting to eclipse the threshold of marginal benefit and let me tell you why:<br />
<br />
I am being taxed to death and the government thinks I don't pay enough.<br />
<br />
I have State taxes. Federal taxes, Property taxes, Sales and Use taxes, Payroll taxes, gas taxes, food taxes, energy taxes, trash taxes, and Workers compensation taxes, Unemployment taxes, medicare taxes, Socialist Security taxes and than Taxes on all those taxes.<br />
<br />
I have to hire a tax man to manage all these taxes and then guess what? I have to pay taxes for employing him.<br />
<br />
Government mandates, rules and regulations, and all the accounting that goes with it, now occupy most of my time. On Oct 15th, I wrote a check to the US Treasury for $288,000 for quarterly taxes. You know what my "stimulus" check was? Zero. Nada. Zilch.<br />
<br />
The question I have is this: Who is stimulating the economy? Me, the guy who has provided 14 people good paying jobs and serves over 2,200,000 people per year with a flourishing business? Or, the single mother sitting at home pregnant with her fourth child waiting for her next welfare check? Obviously, government feels the latter is the economic stimulus of this country.<br />
<br />
The fact is, if I deducted [Read: "robbed"] more than 70% of your paycheck you'd quit and you wouldn't work here. I mean, why should you? That's nuts.<br />
<br />
Who wants to get rewarded for less than 70% of their hard work?<br />
<br />
Well, I agree which is why your job is in jeopardy.<br />
<br />
Here is what many of you don't understand ... to stimulate the economy you need to stimulate what runs the economy. Had suddenly government mandated to me that I didn't need to pay taxes, guess what? Instead of depositing that $288,000 into the Washington black-hole, I would have spent it, hired more employees, and generated substantial economic growth. My employees would have enjoyed the wealth of that tax cut in the form of promotions and better salaries. But you can forget it now.<br />
<br />
When you have a comatose man on the verge of death, you don't defibrillate and shock his thumb thinking that will bring him back to life, do you? Or, do you defibrillate his heart? Business is at the heart of America and always has been. To restart it, you must stimulate it, not kill it.<br />
<br />
Suddenly, the power brokers in Washington believe the poor of America are the essential drivers of the American economic engine. Nothing could be further from the truth and this is the type of change you can keep.<br />
<br />
So where am I going with all this?<br />
<br />
It's quite simple.<br />
<br />
If any new taxes are levied on me, or my company, my reaction will be swift and simple. I'll fire you and your co-workers. You can then plead with the government to pay for your mortgage, your SUV, and your child's future. Frankly, it isn't my problem any more, as it is the "governments" problem, and the problem with all "over taxing" governments.<br />
<br />
Then, I will close this company down, move to another country, and retire. You see, I'm done. I'm done with a country that penalizes the productive and gives to the unproductive. My motivation to work and to provide jobs will be destroyed, and with it, will be my citizenship.<br />
<br />
So, if you lose your job, it won't be at the hands of the economy; it will be at the hands of a political hurricane that swept through this country, steamrolled the constitution, and will have changed its landscape forever. If that happens, you can find me sitting on a beach, retired, and with no employees to worry about....<br />
<br />
Signed, THE BOSS<br />
<br />
"The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money." Margaret Thatcher, a true "Fabian Socialist" who should know the facts of "socialism!"</blockquote>
...of course the reality is....when it goes down and "The Boss" tries to retire and head out to the beach....<br />
<br />
Who's he going to sell the business to? What country is he going to run to? What beach is he going to go to without worries?<br />

The Intra-Administration War in Vietnam<br />
<br />
By ARTHUR KROCK<br />
<br />
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2 — The Central Intelligence Agency is getting a very bad press in dispatches from Vietnam to American newspapers and in articles originating in Washington. Like the Supreme Court when under fire, the C.I.A. cannot defend itself in public retorts to criticisms of its activities as they occur. But, unlike the the Supreme Court, the C.I.A. has no open record of its activities on which the public can base a judgment of the validity of the criticisms. Also, the agency is precluded from using the indirect defensive tactic which is constantly employed by all other Government units under critical file.<br />
<br />
This tactic is to give information to the press, under a seal of confidence, that challenges or refutes the critics. But the C.I.A. cannot father such inspired articles, because to do so would require some disclosure of its activities. And not only does the effectiveness of the agency depend on the secrecy of its operations. Every President since the C.I.A. was created has protected this secrecy from claimants—Congress or the public through the press, for examples—of the right to share any part of it.<br />
<br />
With High Frequency<br />
<br />
This Presidential policy has not, however, always restrained other executive units from going confidentially to the press with attacks on C.I.A. operations in their common field of responsibility. And usually it has been possible to deduce these operational details from the nature o the attacks. But the peak of the practice has recently been reached in Vietnam and in Washington. This is revealed almost every day now in dispatches from reporters—in close touch with intra-Administration critics of the C.I.A.—with excellent reputations for reliability.<br />
<br />
One reporter in this category is Richard Starnes of the Scripps-Howard newspapers. Today, under a Saigon dateline, he related that, "according to a high United States source here, twice the C.I.A. flatly refused to carry out instructions from Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge . . . [and] in one instance frustrated a plan of action Mr. Lodge brought from Washington because the agency disagreed with it." Among the views attributed to United States officials on the scene, including one described as a "very high American official . . . who has spent much of his life in the service of democracy . . . are the following:<br />
<br />
The C.I.A.'s growth was "likened to a malignancy" which the "very high official was not sure even the White House could control . . . any longer." "If the United States ever experiences [an attempt at a coup to overthrow the Government] it will come from the C.I.A. and not the Pentagon." The agency "represents a tremendous power and total unaccountability to anyone." <a href="http://www.maebrussell.com/Military/CIA%20War%20in%20Vietnam.html">Source</a></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Researcher Anthony Frank writes: A "Washington Post" article on September 22, 1963, about Kennedy’s efforts to oust the Diem-Nhu regime, said that “certain elements of the CIA believe that there is no alternative to the Diem-Nhu axis. These sentiments also exist among American military leaders . . . The brass simply feels that any change in American policy would wreck the war effort. The firmest opponents of change, however, seem to be certain top CIA people. There is strong reason to believe that the recent Times of Vietnam story exposing an alleged CIA coup attempt was actually leaked by CIA dissidents themselves in an attempt to forestall any American attempt to dump Nhu . . . CIA dissidents see positive virtues in Nhu . . . Ambassador Lodge cannot fully trust his own staff members.”<br />
<br />
On October 5, 1963, nine days after McCone’s memorandum, the "Washington Post" reported: “John H. Richardson, CIA station chief in South Vietnam, is being recalled to Washington . . . Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge is reported on good authority to have requested Richardson’s replacement . . . Richardson has been one of the key men in development of the U.S. Role of helping the Diem government fight Communist guerrillas . . . There have been persistent reports of differences between Lodge and the CIA staff.”<br />
<br />
At a news conference on October 9, 1963, four days after Richardson’s removal, President Kennedy “vigorously defended the role of the Central Intelligence Agency in South Vietnam . . . The President devoted a good share of his 30 minute news conference to the subject of the CIA, a normally sacrosanct matter which the White House never airs in public.”<br />
<br />
On November 1, 1963, three weeks before JFK was assassinated, the Diem-Nhu regime was ousted in a coup.<br />
<br />

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Several military historians of the Kennedy era, notably John M. Newman and Fletcher Prouty, have written that JFK was trying to reign in the power of the CIA throughout most of his abbreviated term in office. Some have wondered, in the context of an evolving Cuba policy and a planned withdrawal from Vietnam, both hot spots for CIA hell-raisers, if this may have been a motivation for his murder.<br />
<a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1390095677"><br /></a><br />
Contemporaneous documents suggesting friction between the Agency and JFK are limited, but hardly nonexistent. There is, for example, Kennedy's angry remark following the Bay of Pigs fiasco that he would "tear [the CIA] into a thousand pieces and scatter it to the wind." Although he replaced the Agency's top leadership, he clearly did not follow through completely on his threat. So what did he do?<br />
<a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1390095677"><br /></a><br />
His first major step, apparently, was to issue NSAM-55 on June 28, 1961. Newman writes, "The crux of NSAM-55, however, was this: Kennedy charged the Joint Chiefs with responsibility for 'defense of the nation in the Cold War' and 'dynamic and imaginative leadership... of military and paramilitary aspects of Cold War programs.' This mandate was _big_ news, since cold war paramilitary operations were--up to this moment--the exclusive fiefdom of the CIA." (JFK and Vietnam, 98)<br />

NATIONAL SECURITY ACTION MEMORANDUM NO. 55<br />
June 28, 1961<br />
<a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1390095677"><br /></a><br />
TO: The Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff<br />
SUBJECT: Relations of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to the President in cold war operations<br />
<a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1390095677"><br /></a><br />
I wish to inform the Joint Chiefs of Staff as follows with regard to my views of their relations to me in cold war operations:<br />
<a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1390095677"><br /></a><br />
a. I regard the Joint Chiefs of Staff as my principal military adviser responsible both for initiating advice to me and for responding to requests for advice. I expect their advice to come to me direct and unfiltered.<br />
<a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1390095677"><br /></a><br />
b. The Joint Chiefs of Staff have a responsibility for the defense of the nation in the cold war similar to that which they have in conventional hostilities. They should know the military and paramilitary forces and resources available to the Department of Defense, verify their readiness, report on their adequacy, and make appropriate recommendations for their expansion and improvement. I look to the Chiefs to contribute dynamic and imaginative leadership in contributing to the success of the military and paramilitary aspects of cold war programs.<br />
<a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1390095677"><br /></a><br />
c. I expect the Joint Chiefs of Staff to present the military view-point in governmental councils in such a way as to assure that the military factors are clearly understood before decisions are reached. When only the chairman or a single chief is present, that officer must represent the Chiefs as a body taking such preliminary and subsequent actions as may be necessary to assure that he does in fact represent the corporate judgment of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.<br />
<a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1390095677"><br /></a><br />
d. While I look to the Chiefs to present the military factor without reserve or hesitation, I regard them to be more than military men and expect their help in fitting military requirements into the overall context of any situation, recognizing that the most difficult problem in government is to combine all aspects in a unified, effective pattern. <br />

....after all of my research on the subject which includes reading multiple investigations from multiple viewpoints...for example - CIA author Gerald Posner's (now the Karzai family lawyer after getting fired for plagiarism) work called "Case Closed" or on the flip side the account from the most highly decorated Special Forces operative James "Bo" Gritz in his book "Called to Serve". I have come to the conclusion that Marine Corps Sniper Craig Roberts nailed the investigation best in his work "Kill Zone". I have included some excerpts from that wonderful body of research below: <br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
I looked at the engagement angle. It was entirely wrong. The wall of the building in which the windows overlooked Dealey Plaza ran east and west. By looking directly down at the best engagement angle which was straight out the window facing south I could see Houston Street. Houston was perpendicular to the wall and ran directly toward my window. This is the street on which the motorcade had approached and would have been my second choice as a zone of engagement. My first choice was directly below the window, at a drastic bend in the street that had to be negotiated by Kennedy's limousine. It would have to slow appreciably, almost to a stop, and when it did, the target would be presented moving at its slowest pace. The last zone of engagement I would pick would be as the limo drove away toward the west and the Grassy Knoll. Here, from what I could see, three problems arose that would influence my shots. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
First, the target was moving away at a drastic angle to the right from the window, meaning that I would have to position my body to compete with the wall and a set of vertical water pipes on the left frame of the window to get a shot. This would be extremely difficult for a righthanded shooter. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Second, I would have be ready to fire exactly when the target emerged past some tree branches that obscured the kill zone. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Finally, I would have to deal with two factors at the same time: the curve of the street, and the high-to-low angle formula , a law of physics Oswald would not have known. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Even if I waited for the target to pass the primary and secondary engagement zones, and for some reason decided to engage instead in the worst possible area, I still had to consider the fact that Oswald made his farthest, and most difficult shot, last. I estimated the range for this shot at between 80 and 90 yards. It was this final shot that, according to the Warren Commission, struck Kennedy's head. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
As an experienced sniper, something else bothered me. Any sniper knows that the two most important things to be considered in selecting a position are the fields of fire, and a route of escape. You have to have both. It is of little value to take a shot, then not be able to successfully get away to fight another day. Even if the window was a spot that I would select for a hide, I had doubts about my ability to escape afterwards. According to what little I had read, the elevator was stuck on a floor below at the time in question, and only the stairway could have been used as a means of withdrawal. And there were dozens of people potential witnesses below who would be able to identify anyone rushing away from the scene. Not good. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
But Oswald was not a trained or experienced military sniper. He was supposed to be little more than some odd-ball with a grudge. And for whatever reason, had decided to buy a rifle and shoot the President of the United States. Or so the Warren Commission would have us believe. </blockquote>
- the key problem <br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Someday all of the witnesses will be gone and the remaining physical evidence will disappear. At that time, the "files" will probably become available to the public. However, like the FBI and CIA files, they will have been "sterilized." The conspiracy and coverup will have succeeded and there will be no true and final solution to the murder. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
But a few questions will remain through the ages that will forever threaten to raise the demons of truth before the official version parroted by the government. The most obvious is the simple mechanics of the killing. Could Lee Harvey Oswald, given the 6.5mm Mannlicher-Carcano, fire a minimum of three shots accurately from the 6th floor window of the Book Depository in the time allotted? </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
This can now be answered. He could not. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
According to my friend, Gunnery Sergeant Carlos Hathcock, the former senior instructor for the U.S. Marine Corps Sniper Instructor School at Quantico, Virginia, it could not be done as described by the FBI investigators. Gunny Hathcock, now retired, is the most famous American military sniper in history. In Vietnam he was credited with 93 confirmed kills and a total of over 300 actual kills counting those unconfirmed. He now conducts police SWAT team sniper schools across the country. When I called him to ask if he had seen the Zapruder film, he chuckled and cut me off. "Let me tell you what we did at Quantico," he began. "We reconstructed the whole thing: the angle, the range, the moving target, the time limit, the obstacles, everything. I don't know how many times we tried it, but we couldn't duplicate what the Warren Commission said Oswald did. Now if I can't do it, how in the world could a guy who was a non-qual on the rifle range and later only qualified 'marksman' do it?" </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The Marines were not the only ones who attempted to duplicate the shots. According to Victor Ostrovsky, an Israeli Mossad agent, the Mossad also tried to reenact the shooting using the available data. Using their best marksmen and finest equipment, they also found it couldn't be done by one man, using that position, in the time allowed: </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"To test their theory, they did a simulation exercise of the presidential cavalcade to see if expert marksmen with far better equipment than Oswald's could hit a moving target from the recorded distance of 88 yards. They couldn't...The Mossad had every film taken of the Dallas Assassination. Pictures of the area, the topography, aerial photographs, everything. Using mannequins, they duplicated the presidential cavalcade over and over again. Professionals will do a job in the same way. If I'm going to use a high powered rifle, there are very few places I'd work from, and ideally I'd want a place where I held the target for the longest possible time, where I could get closest to it, but still create the least disturbance. Based on that, we picked a few likely places, and we had more than one person doing the shooting from more than one angle....During the simulation, the Mossad, using better, more powerful equipment, would aim their rifles, which were set up on tripods, and when the moment came they'd say "bang" over the loudspeakers and a laser direction finder would show where the people in the car would have been hit, and the bullet exits. It was just an exercise, but it showed that it was impossible to do what Oswald was supposed to have done."</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
And this simple fact Oswald could not have done it is the Achilles heal in the government's case. For the lack of planning and accomplishing two simple things 1) spending a few dollars more to buy a better rifle, equipped with an accurate sight, which was capable of the rate of fire alluded to, and; 2) finding a dupe that could shoot ...a secret kingdom, the Entity , may someday fall. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Within two days of Kennedy's death, Johnson rescended the order to withdraw troops from Vietnam by signing National Security Action Memorandum No. 273 which had been written in draft form by William Bundy for LBJ's signature as President on the 21st of November, the day before Kennedy's execution had moved into the White House, and had evicted Jacqueline Kennedy and her staff. JFK's famous wooden rocking chair was removed from the Oval Office and the White House on Monday, the very day of the funeral. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Less than one month later, General Maxwell Taylor and Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara reported to Johnson that the situation in Vietnam was so grave that two things were immediately needed: American combat troops in great numbers, and a huge clandestine effort on the part of the intelligence community. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Those at the top tier of the organizational chart, their jobs secure now that "the king was dead," were now in position to profit financially. The coup d' etat had worked almost perfectly. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Almost. But the evidence that continues to surface proves otherwise. Fletcher Prouty sums it up: "It's one thing to kill somebody. It's another to hide the fact that you did it, or you hired someone to do it. And that's more difficult. That's why they used the device of the Warren Commission report to cover up their hired killers. Now who would hire the killers? And who had thepower to put this report out over the top of the whole story? You see, you're dealing with a very high echelon of power. It doesn't necessarily reside in any government. It doesn't necessarily reside in any corporate institution. But it seems to reside in a blend of the two. Otherwise, how could you get the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, the Dallas police, the media all of the media, not just one or two newspapers to participate in the coverup? None of the media will print the story, other than Oswald killed the President of the United States." </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The means of the coverup in 1963 were well-planned and well executed.
What is remarkable is not only the fact that it has remained intact for
so many years, but that any effort made in exposing what really happened
is still venomously opposed by not only those in power, but by the
media. Even when President George Bush made a public announcement in
1992 (following a public outcry after the release of Oliver Stone's JFK)
that he would open the long-sealed Warren Commission records, he
changed his mind a few weeks later. There was no explanation and the
records remain sealed. And as late as August, 1992, U.S. News and World
Report published a feature article espousing the credibility and virtues
of the Warren Commission.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The "simple homicide investigation" that began in Dealey Plaza had placed me on a trail that led into a maze of mirrors and mirages that would eventually expose me to a force more sinister, more powerful than the Mafia, the CIA, the Pentagon, Congress even the White House. When I entered the narrow door that led into the world of spooks and spies and Third World Wars, I began a journey that would take me to the summit of the highest mountain in the very depths of Hell. And when I arrived there, I found what I felt to be the real reason John F. Kennedy was murdered.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Many motives have been offered through the years for the death of John F. Kennedy. A few, upon study, are valid up to a point. Of these, there are: </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
1. The anti-Castro Cubans, who, assisted by former CIA controllers, avenged the Bay of Pigs debacle; </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
2. The CIA, who if Kennedy was eliminated, would remain intact instead of being "scattered to the winds" as Kennedy threatened; </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
3. The Mafia, who wished to "get rid of the Kennedy boys" who were causing them so many problems, and finally, </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
4. The Military/Industrial/Banking complex that stood so much to gain from the escalating war in Vietnam from which Kennedy had announced the U.S. was withdrawing. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
5. Lyndon Johnson and his Texas backers who had so much to gain from the War in Vietnam and the power the presidency brings. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
But even though the plot would, to a certain extent, require the cooperation of selected elements of each of these entities, the most important motive is not on this list. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Kennedy's death could not be attributed solely to the Cubans, the CIA, the Mafia, or the M/I/B complex. Instead, the reason behind the decision to eliminate the president was something far more important to the conspirators than revenge or war profits: </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
President John F. Kennedy, like Lincoln before him, was about to interfere with the progress of the master plan. After two hundred years of alternating victories and setbacks for the international banking cabal, and just when they had total power within their grasp by way of controlling the nation's economy, Kennedy planned to exterminate the Federal Reserve System, then put the country back on the Gold Standard. In this action he would put the country back on a cash-and-carry basis, get away from deficit spending, and eventually eliminate the national debt as had Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln before him when they did the same to the two Rothschild-organized central banks! </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
In 1963, by presidential order of John F. Kennedy (EO 11 and EO 110), the United States Treasury began printing over $4 billion worth of "United States Notes" to replace Federal Reserve Notes. When a sufficient supply of these notes entered circulation, the Federal Reserve Notes and hence, the Federal Reserve Board would have been declared obsolete. This done, the notes printed and issued by the Federal Reserve Board would have been removed from circulation as they wore out and would no longer be issued. This, in effect, would end the control of the international investment bankers over the U.S. government and the American<br />
people. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
For those in doubt, a few of these bills can still be found. They can be recognized easily by the distinctive red seal on the front of the bill in lieu of the green seal of the Federal Reserve Notes. At the top of the bills, above the portrait of the $2 dollar and $5 dollar notes that were printed, are the words "United States Note." No mention is made of the Federal Reserve. The series is 1963 and C. Douglas Dillon's signature appears as Secretary of the Treasury. The reverse of these bills is identical to the Federal Reserve notes. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
It can now be seen why Kennedy was murdered. Should his plan have been permitted to succeed, the international banking cabal and the Rothschild plan would have been set back indefinitely. This prospect was unacceptable. The only solution would be to remove Kennedy from office immediately before he could do irreparable damage to everything the generations of globalists had built. It was a matter of survival. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
For the shadow organizations who had plotted Lincoln's assassination, the takeover of the nation's money system, the assassination attempts of Fidel Castro by the ZR/RIFLE team, the coups against Allende of Chile, Arbenz of Guatemala, and Mossadegh of Iran, the elimination of over 25,000 Vietnamese during Operation Phoenix, and other hits carried out during the CIA's Executive Action operations, it was "business as usual" </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The decision was made, the orders given. The result was an ambush in Dealey Plaza by assassins provided by the same organizations who had served the money powers for decades: selected cells within the clandestine intelligence community. The same people, under the same leadership, that maneuvered around the law to accomplish whatever they were called upon to do by The Power, all under the guise of National Security, were on center stage for another operation to eliminate a threat to their private agenda: John F. Kennedy. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
No entity lower than the Rothschild Plan conspirators could have ordered such an operation, planned it, executed it, then managed to cover it up for three decades. Neither the anti-Castro Cuban community, nor the Mafia, the military, or even the industrialists could have manipulated the White House (Lyndon Johnson), the Warren Commission, the CIA, and the FBI in the investigation of the assassination, then continued to ensure an ongoing program to suppress evidence, eliminate witnesses, and hide from the public the original investigative records until the year 2029. No single individual, governmental agency, or administration has that amount of continuous power. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
That kind of omnipotence resides solely in The Power Elite. </blockquote>
Lincoln - note demise of Czar not many years later via the same power players: <br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
What is not history at least schoolroom history as taught to our children is the fact that the Rothschilds attempted to finance both sides of the war. But Abraham Lincoln, who could see exactly what was happening, refused to borrow money from the international bankers. Instead, he found a friend and supporter in the one country in Europe not controlled by the Rothschilds:<br />
Russia. The Czar, by way of his minister in Washington, pledged support against the British and French who, he assured Lincoln, were the driving forces behind the secession of the South and her subsequent financing. The Russians intervened by providing naval forces for the Union blockade of the South in European waters, and by letting both countries know that if they attempted to join the Confederacy with military forces, they would also have to go to war with Russia. This was a prospect neither country wanted.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Lincoln still needed to finance the Union cause. But instead of borrowing from the international investment bankers by way of a privately owned national central bank, he instead created "Greenbacks," which were printed by the U.S. Treasury as specified in the original articles of the Constitution. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
In retaliation, England sent 8,000 troops to Canada as a show of force for the South, and France dispatched troops to Mexico to bolster emperor Maximillian (who was French). Both efforts were designed in concert to show Lincoln that he was outflanked by the European money powers. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
But the show of force, thanks to the Russian threat, failed to sway Lincoln in his handling of financial matters. He still refused to borrow money from the bankers, who he knew would pass the note on to the European banks of the Rothschilds. The Rothschilds, having failed to influence the Federal government with the show of military force, sent a letter to the New York bankers in July, 1862 that addressed the threat of Lincoln's greenbacks to their master plan and mentioned the use of selfgenerated bonds to secure a federal debt to the bankers: </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"The great debt that capitalists will see to it is made out of the war must be used to control the volume of money. To accomplish this the bonds must be used as a banking basis. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"We are not waiting for the Secretary of the Treasury [Salmon P. Chase] to make this recommendation to Congress. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"It will not do to allow the greenback, as it is called, to circulate as money any length of time, for we cannot control them. But we can control the bonds and through them the bank issues." </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The following February the Rothschilds did succeed. By way of their agent, Treasury Secretary Salmon P. Chase, the bankers managed to force a bill through Congress creating a central bank. This act, called the National Banking Act, created a federally chartered bank that had the power to issue U.S. Bank Notes. The notes, designated legal tender by the act, were not backed by gold but by debt, and were loaned to the government at interest.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Lincoln continued to fight against the central bank, and by 1865 was beginning to make inroads to its demise. It is now believed that his anticipated success in influencing Congress to limit the life of the Bank of the United States to just the war years was the motivating factor behind his assassination. Modern researchers have uncovered evidence of a massive conspiracy that links Lincoln's Secretary of War, Edwin Stanton, to John Wilkes Booth, his eight co-conspirators, and over seventy government officials and businessmen involved in the conspiracy to the Bank of Rothschild. When Booth's diary was recovered by Stanton's troops, it was delivered to Stanton. When it was later produced during the investigation, eighteen pages had been ripped out. These pages, containing the aforesaid names, were later found in the attic of one of Stanton's descendants. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The evidence suggests that Lincoln, who posed a roadblock to the master plan of world domination first developed by Amschel Rothschild and being carried out by his sons, was removed from office by a pistol shot. The assassin, portrayed as a crazed lone gunman with a few radical friends, escaped by way of the single bridge in Washington not guarded by Stanton's troops. He was later tracked down, located hiding in a barn, and immediately murdered by troops under Stanton's control and Stanton certified that the murdered man was Booth. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
It is now believed that a dupe was used and that the real John Wilkes Booth escaped with Stanton's assistance. It should be noted that Mary Todd Lincoln, upon hearing of her husband's death, began screaming "Oh, that dreadful house!" Earlier historians felt that this spontaneous utterance concerned Lincoln's occupancy of the White House. This author believes the reference was to Thomas W. House, a gunrunner, financier, and agent of the Rothschilds during the Civil War who was linked to the anti-Lincoln, pro-banker interests. Thomas W. House was the father of "Colonel" Edward Mandell House, who later became the key player in the election of Woodrow Wilson and the passage of the Federal Reserve Act. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Lincoln again warned the American people: "The money power preys upon the nation in times of peace and conspires against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy. I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me, and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. Corporations have been enthroned, an era of corruption will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people, until the wealth is aggregated in a few hands, and the republic is destroyed."</blockquote>
- tools of the trade: <br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The foot soldiers for the globalists, as we have seen, have consistently been the clandestine intelligence services. In modern times, the clandestine services in this country have ranged from General William "Wild Bill" Donovan's Office of Strategic Services (OSS), through Allen Dulles's follow-on Central Intelligence Group (CIG), to the Central Intelligence Agency. Accompanying these organizations, when the scope of a given operation exceeded the assets of the covert community, were elements of small, elite military organizations such as the U.S. Army Special Forces, U.S. Air Force Air Commandos, and U.S. Navy SEALs. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
And when "National Security" was considered to be a cover for an operation, no law or morals stood in the way of the mission. From the ruins of of Nazi Germany, where war criminals were spirited away from prosecution by the thousands in such covert operations as Paperclip and Omega and by certain high-ranking individuals within the OSS (each supplied by the CFR), to traitorous handling of the war in Korea through the U.N., to the manipulations and assassinations of the leadership of Third World countries during the Cold War Years, through the financial and political manipulations of the Vietnam War, Watergate, Iran/Contra, Desert Shield/Storm, Somalia, and Bosnia, to today, the moral values of the shadow warriors and the entities that control them have been shown to be non-existent. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
And in the years following World War II, through the Cold War, the financing of the rebuilding of Germany and Japan, and all of the above stepping stones of history, the same powers and covert organizations have continued to move in one direction: toward more power and influence. It did not matter if crimes had to be perpetrated and covered up, whether the players violated every law and moral code written, whether men supplied by the masses, such as those who fought in the Civil War, World War I, World War II, Korea and Vietnam, had to be sacrified to meet the goals of the secret agenda, as long as the final objective was attained. And herein lies the key that opens the door to the mysteries of the present, for no one can remain a criminal without eventual discovery. And when that discovery occurs, it is like opening Pandora's Box.</blockquote>
- excerpts from "Kill Zone" by Craig Roberts (USMC Sniper in Vietnam) also author of "One Shot One Kill".<br />
<blockquote>
The person who actually wrote the Warren Report on the assassination of John F. Kennedy, Dr. Rudolph August "Otto" Winnaker, was described in the "Who's Who in the CIA" as an analyst for the wartime OSS, historian in the U.S. War Department from 1945-49 and then Chief of the Historical Division of the Pentagon. What is <span style="font-weight: bold;">not</span> listed is that Dr. Winnaker was one of 26 official historians for Hitler's Third Reich! The CIA-managed investigative teams of the Warren Commission wrote internal memoranda criticizing every line of the Warren Commission Report in five investigative areas, because they knew that even their own trussed-up investigation wouldn't support the conclusions of Mr. Winnaker!<br />
<br />
The parallel was not lost on politically aware observers as the Iran/Contra scandal began to unfold and the Congressional Joint Committee hired former CIA Station Chief in Saigon, Thomas Polgar, to head up their "investigation." Nor was it all that startling that the Tower Committee reporting on the Iran/Contra scandal would be headed up by a man that Congress determined was not fit to serve as Secretary of Defense; a man who had also spared no effort in 1962 as a Texas Senator to pass all waivers in order to bring Marina Oswald into the United States as soon as possible! The sad thing is that the majority of the American people are not cognizant of these facts, and these continuing connections to deceit and corruption.</blockquote>

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Your first reaction may be the same as mine — an addition to the several dozen books already written, struggling with the obvious fiction of the Warren Report! This is not the case, however. You should notice the word “Official” in the sub-title. While working on his book “Gestapo Chief,” the biography of Heinrich Muller, Gregory Douglas became acquainted, and then good friends, with Robert T. Crowley, former Assistant Deputy Director of Clandestine Operations of the CIA. Crowley, or “Crow” as he was known within the CIA, had been a close associate and supervisor of Muller when he was brought into the CIA following WWII.<br />
<br />
After his retirement and increasing age with an approaching chest operation where cancer was suspected, Crowley turned over his files to the author, Gregory Douglas, with the understanding that they were not to be opened, or used until after his death. On Tuesday, 10 October 2000, on page 6, the Washington Post reported the death of “Robert Trumbull Crowley, 76, a senior CIA official…” </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Douglas was now free to use the Crowley papers. This astounding book is the result: “The Official Assassination of John F. Kennedy”! To a major extent it is the reproduction of much of Robert T. Crowley’s files in the typewritten print of those files, with Crowley’s underscoring and emphasis on them, along with the explanations by Gregory Douglas. The book is so astounding that many may find themselves questioning the authenticity of even this original file material as I did. Therefore I refer you to two other sources:<br />
<br />
1) The New York Times of 3 October 1963 editorial page (50 days previous to the assassination of JFK) carried a column by the well-known journalist Arthur Krock, “The Intra-Administration War in Vietnam” in which he described the CIA in Viet-Nam refusing to carry out orders from the President delivered to them by Ambassador Lodge. In closing this column Krock says, “If the United States ever experiences an attempt at a coup to overthrow the Government it will come from the CIA and not the Pentagon.”<br />
<br />
2) In 1973 Col L. Fletcher Prouty, USAF (Ret), after retirement from nine years as the liaison officer for the Pentagon with the CIA, wrote a book, “The Secret Team — The CIA and its Allies in control of the United States and the World.”<br />
<br />
These two items by independent authors overlap and support what you will find in this book. It was the compatibility of what Arthur Krock and Fletcher Prouty, independent authors, had written that gave me assurance that I was reading authentic documents.<br />
<br />
In the review of CIA “Operation Zipper” in this book you will see CIA agents James J. Angleton and Robert T. Crowley planning the assassination of the president, beginning in early March of 1963. Before the end of March, according to the documents, J. Edgar Hoover of the FBI, Lyndon B. Johnson, Vice President, and General Lyman Lemnitzer, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, had been brought into the plan along with the Chicago Mafia and Israeli Mossad. The Chicago Mafia’s recruitment of the Corsican Mafia assassins in Marseille, France, alerted French Intelligence that a political assassination was planned in the U.S. and they alerted the U.S. Embassy, who apparently alerted no one. LBJ was concerned that he was also targeted and had to be assured by J. Edgar Hoover that he was not a target. It seems clear Lee Harvey Oswald was strictly the “patsy” he claimed to be.<br />
<br />
Why and how did the CIA persuade so many high government officials to join them in a coup to overthrow the elected U.S. government? It is all here! Crowley was convinced the “Zipper” project was in the best interest of the country! You will find it helpful to review your history of the Cuban Bay of Pigs fiasco and the Cuban missile crisis, which brought about a fatal fracture of trust between the President and his intelligence agency! Also the CIA had discovered that via his brother, Robert Kennedy, and the senior KGB agent in the Washington USSR Embassy, the President had established a private line of communication with Nikita Khrushchev which the CIA considered treasonous.<br />

Where JFK had planned to reduce our commitments and involvement in Viet-Nam, LBJ engineered the Gulf of Tonkin incident and expanded them. JFK was strongly opposing the Israeli development of nuclear weapons — LBJ was complacent and ignored these developments. <a href="http://milmag.com/2009/02/regicide-%E2%80%94-the-official-assassination-of-john-f-kennedy-by-gregory-douglas/">Source </a></blockquote>

Barry Seal, “the biggest drug smuggler in American history”, while working for the CIA, was funneling the immense amount of cocaine of the Iran-Contra Operation right through Mena, Arkansas, under the watch of Bill Clinton. The purpose of the Iran Contra affair was to accumulate funds to secretly finance the Mujahideen, particularly Gulbuddin Hekmetyar, a member of the Muslim Brotherhood, and later bin Laden.<br />
<br />
Again, this was the chief strategy of the Neoconservatives. So it ties into the other video I recommended, the Power of Nightmares. The whole thing was headed by George Bush Sr.<br />
<br />
Well, it turns out Barry Seal had been recruited at the age of seventeen, along with Lee Oswald, by CIA agent David Ferrie, at a two week summer camp of the Louisiana Civil Air Patrol in 1957. David Ferrie is the fiend and pedophile portrayed by Joe Pecci in Oliver Stone’s JFK.</blockquote>

A career U.S. intelligence agent, Ferrie was a participant in the assassination of President Kennedy, and the first focal point of Jim Garrison’s investigation of Kennedy’s murder. The assassination team went by the name of Operation 40, established by Allen Dulles, which played a major role in the Bay of Pigs invasion. The group was presided over by then-Vice President Richard M. Nixon and recruited former Batista-regime intelligence officers and mob henchmen, mercenaries like Frank Sturgis and CIA case officer Howard Hunt, who would later become one of the Watergate burglars. As revealed by John Hankey, in his film JFK II, at a 1975 Senate re-investigation into the case, William Colby, as head of CIA, testified that George Bush Sr. and Hunt headed the Kennedy assassination, but said that “…they weren’t really in charge. They were just taking orders from civilians like Allen Dulles and the Rockefellers.” Colby was then promptly dismissed, and George Bush was appointed to head the CIA in his place.<br />

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
On June 4, 1963, a little known attempt was made to strip the Federal Reserve Bank of its power to loan money to the government at interest. On that day President John F. Kennedy signed Executive Order No. 11110 that returned to the U.S. government the power to issue currency, without going through the Federal Reserve. Mr. Kennedy's order gave the Treasury the power "to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury." This meant that for every ounce of silver in the U.S. Treasury's vault, the government could introduce new money into circulation. In all, Kennedy brought nearly $4.3 billion in U.S. notes into circulation. The ramifications of this bill are enormous.<br />
<br />
With the stroke of a pen, Mr. Kennedy was on his way to putting the Federal Reserve Bank of New York out of business. If enough of these silver certificats were to come into circulation they would have eliminated the demand for Federal Reserve notes. This is because the silver certificates are backed by silver and the Federal Reserve notes are not backed by anything. Executive Order 11110 could have prevented the national debt from reaching its current level, because it would have given the gevernment the ability to repay its debt without going to the Federal Reserve and being charged interest in order to create the new money. Executive Order 11110 gave the U.S. the ability to create its own money backed by silver.<br />
<br />
After Mr. Kennedy was assassinated just five months later, no more silver certificates were issued. The Final Call has learned that the Executive Order was never repealed by any U.S. President through an Executive Order and is still valid. Why then has no president utilized it? Virtually all of the nearly $6 trillion in debt has been created since 1963, and if a U.S. president had utilized Executive Order 11110 the debt would be nowhere near the current level. Perhaps the assassination of JFK was a warning to future presidents who would think to eliminate the U.S. debt by eliminating the Federal Reserve's control over the creation of money. Mr. Kennedy challenged the government of money by challenging the two most successful vehicles that have ever been used to drive up debt - war and the creation of money by a privately-owned central bank. His efforts to have all troops out of Vietnam by 1965 and Executive Order 11110 would have severely cut into the profits and control of the New York banking establishment. As America's debt reaches unbearable levels and a conflict emerges in Bosnia that will further increase America's debt, one is force to ask, will President Clinton have the courage to consider utilizing Executive Order 11110 and, ifso, is he willing to pay the ultimate price for doing so?<br />
<br />
Executive Order 11110 AMENDMENT OF EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 10289<br />
<br />
AS AMENDED, RELATING TO THE PERFORMANCE OF CERTAIN FUNCTIONS AFFECTING THE DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY<br />
<br />
By virtue of the authority vested in me by section 301 of title 3 of the United States Code, it is ordered as follows:<br />
<br />
Section 1. Executive Order No. 10289 of September 19, 1951, as amended, is hereby further amended-<br />
<br />
By adding at the end of paragraph 1 thereof the following subparagraph (j):<br />
<br />
<br />
(j) The authority vested in the President by paragraph (b) of section 43 of the Act of May 12,1933, as amended (31 U.S.C.821(b)), to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury not then held for redemption of any outstanding silver certificates, to prescribe the denomination of such silver certificates, and to coin standard silver dollars and subsidiary silver currency for their redemption<br />
<br />
and --<br />
<br />
Byrevoking subparagraphs (b) and (c) of paragraph 2 thereof.<br />
<br />
Sec. 2. The amendments made by this Order shall not affect any act done, or any right accruing or accrued or any suit or proceeding had or commenced in any civil or criminal cause prior to the date of this Order but all such liabilities shall continue and may be enforced as if said amendments had not been made.<br />
<br />
John F. Kennedy The White House, June 4, 1963.<br />
<br />
Of course, the fact that both JFK and Lincoln met the the same end is a mere coincidence.<br />
<br />
Abraham Lincoln's Monetary Policy, 1865 (Page 91 of Senate document 23.)<br />
<br />
Money is the creature of law and the creation of the original issue of money should be maintained as the exclusive monopoly of national Government.<br />
<br />
Money possesses no value to the State other than that given to it by circulation.<br />
<br />
Capital has its proper place and is entitled to every protection. The wages of men should be recognised in the structure of and in the social order as more important than the wages of money.<br />
<br />
No duty is more imperative for the Government than the duty it owes the People to furnish them with a sound and uniform currency, and of regulating the circulation of the medium of exchange so that labour will be protected from a vicious currency, and commerce will be facilitated by cheap and safe exchanges.<br />
<br />
The available supply of Gold and Silver being wholly inadequate to permit the issuance of coins of intrinsic value or paper currency convertible into coin in the volume required to serve the needs of the People, some other basis for the issue of currency must be developed, and some means other than that of convertibility into coin must be developed to prevent undue fluctuation in the value of paper currency or any other substitute for money of intrinsic value that may come into use.<br />
<br />
The monetary needs of increasing numbers of People advancing towards higher standards of living can and should be met by the Government. Such needs can be served by the issue of National Currency and Credit through the operation of a National Banking system .The circulation of a medium of exchange issued and backed by the Government can be properly regulated and redundancy of issue avoided by withdrawing from circulation such amounts as may be necessary by Taxation, Redeposit, and otherwise. Government has the power to regulate the currency and creditof the Nation.<br />
<br />
Government should stand behind its currency and credit and the Bank deposits of the Nation. No individual should suffer a loss of money through depreciation or inflated currency or Bank bankruptcy.<br />
<br />
Government possessing the power to create and issue currency and creditas money and enjoying the right to withdraw both currency and credit from circulation by Taxation and otherwise need not and should not borrow capital at interest as a means of financing Governmental work and public enterprise. The Government should create, issue, and circulate all the currency and credit needed to satisfy the spending power of the Government and the buying power of the consumers. The privilege of creating and issueing money is not only the supreme prerogative of Government, but it is the Governments greatest creative opportunity.<br />
<br />
By the adoption of these principles the long felt want for a uniform medium will be satisfied. The taxpayers will be saved immense sums of interest, discounts, and exchanges. The financing of all public enterprise, the maintenance of stable Government and ordered progress, and the conduct of the Treasury will become matters of practical administration. The people can and will be furnished with a currency as safe as their own Government. Money will cease to be master and become the servant of humanity. Democracy will rise superior to the money power.<br />
<br />
Some information on the Federal Reserve The Federal Reserve, a Private Corporation One of the most common concerns among people who engage in any effort to reduce their taxes is, "Will keeping my money hurt the government's ability to pay it's bills?" As explained in the first article in this series, the modern withholding tax does not, and wasn't designed to, pay for government services. What it does do, is pay for the privately-owned Federal Reserve System.<br />
<br />
Black's Law Dictionary defines the "Federal Reserve System" as, "Network of twelve central banks to which most national banks belong and to which state chartered banks may belong. Membership rules require investment of stock and minimum reserves."<br />
<br />
Privately-owned banks own the stock of the Fed. This was explained in more detail in the case of Lewis v. United States, Federal Reporter, 2nd Series, Vol. 680, Pages 1239, 1241 (1982), where the court said:<br />
<br />
Each Federal Reserve Bank is a separate corporation owned by commercial banks in its region. The stock-holding commercial banks elect two thirds of each Bank's nine member board of directors.<br />
<br />
Similarly, the Federal Reserve Banks, though heavily regulated, are locally controlled by their member banks. Taking another look at Black's Law Dictionary, we find that these privately owned banks actually issue money:<br />
<br />
Federal Reserve Act. Law which created Federal Reserve banks which act as agents in maintaining money reserves, issuing money in the form of bank notes, lending money to banks, and supervising banks. Administered by Federal Reserve Board (q.v.).<br />
<br />
The FED banks, which are privately owned, actually issue, that is, create, the money we use. In 1964 the House Committee on Banking and Currency, Subcommittee on Domestic Finance, at the second session of the 88th Congress, put out a study entitled Money Facts which contains a good description of what the FED is:<br />
<br />
The Federal Reserve is a total money-making machine.It can issue money or checks. And it never has a problem of making its checks good because it can obtain the $5 and $10 bills necessary to cover its check simply by asking the Treasury Department's Bureau of Engraving to print them.<br />
<br />
As we all know, anyone who has a lot of money has a lot of power. Now imagine a group of people who have the power to create money. Imagine the power these people would have. This is what the Fed is.<br />
<br />
No man did more to expose the power of the Fed than Louis T. McFadden, who was the Chairman of the House Banking Committee back in the 1930s. Constantly pointing out that monetary issues shouldn't be partisan, he criticized both the Herbert Hoover and Franklin Roosevelt administrations. In describing the Fed, he remarked in the Congressional Record, House pages 1295 and 1296 on June 10, 1932, that:<br />
<br />
Mr. Chairman,we have in this country one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal reserve banks. The Federal Reserve Board, a Government Board, has cheated the Government of the United States and he people of the United States out of enoughmoney to pay the national debt. The depredations and the iniquities of the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal reserve banks acting together have cost this country enough money to pay the national debt several times over. This evil institution has impoverished and ruined the people of the UnitedStates; has bankrupted itself, and has practically bankrupted our Government. It has done this through the maladministration of that law by which the Federal Reserve Board, and through the corrupt practices of the moneyed vultures who control it.<br />
<br />
Some people think the Federal reserve banks are United States Government institutions. They are not Government institutions. They are private credit monopolies which prey upon the people of the United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers; foreign and domestic speculators and swindlers; and rich and predatory money lenders. In that dark crew of financial pirates there are those who would cut a man's throat to get a dollar out of his pocket; there are those who send money into States to buy votes to control our legislation; and there are those who maintain an international propaganda for the purpose of deceiving us and of wheedling us into the granting of new concessions which will permit them to cover up their past misdeeds and set again in motion their gigantic train of crime. Those 12 private credit monopolies were deceitfully and disloyally foisted upon this country by bankers who camehere from Europe and who repaid us for our hospitality by undermining our American institutions.<br />
<br />
The Fed basically works like this: The government granted its power to create money to the Fed banks. They create money, then loan it back to the government charging interest. The government levies income taxes to pay the interest on the debt. On this point, it's interesting to note that the Federal Reserve act and the sixteenth amendment, which gave congress the power to collect income taxes, were both passed in 1913. The incredible power of the Fed over the economy is universally admitted. Some people, especially in the banking and academic communities, even support it. On the other hand, there are those, both in the past and in the present, that speak out against it. One of these men was President John F. Kennedy. His efforts were detailed in Jim Marrs' 1990 book, Crossfire:<br />
<br />
Another overlooked aspect of Kennedy's attempt to reform American society involves money. Kennedy apparently reasoned that by returning to the constitution, which states that only Congress shall coin and regulate money, the soaring national debt could be reduced by not paying interest to the bankers of the Federal Reserve System, who print paper money then loan it to the government at interest. He moved in this area on June 4, 1963, by signing Executive Order 11,110 which called for the issuance of $4,292,893,815 in United States Notes through the U.S. Treasury rather than the traditional Federal Reserve System. That same day, Kennedy signed a bill changing the backing of one and two dollar bills from silver to gold, adding strength to the weakened U.S. currency.<br />
<br />
Kennedy's comptroller of the currency, James J. Saxon, had been at odds with the powerful Federal Reserve Board for some time, encouraging broader investment and lending powers for banks that were not part of the Federal Reserve system. Saxon also had decided that non-Reserve banks could underwrite state and local general obligation bonds, again weakening the dominant Federal Reserve banks.<br />
<br />
A number of "Kennedy bills" were indeed issued - the author has a five dollar bill in his possession with the heading "United States Note" - but were quickly withdrawn after Kennedy's death. According to information from the Library of the Comptroller of the Currency, Executive Order 11,110 remains in effect today, although successive administrations beginning with that of President Lyndon Johnson apparently have simply ignored it and instead returned to the practice of paying interest on Federal Reserve notes. Today we continue to use Federal Reserve Notes, and the deficit is at an all-time high.<br />
<br />
The point being made is that the IRS taxes you pay aren't used for government services. It won't hurt you, or the nation, to legally reduce or eliminate your tax liability.<br />

On June 4, 1963, a virtually unknown Presidential decree, Executive Order 11110, was signed with the authority to basically strip the Federal Reserve Bank of its power to loan money to the United States Federal Government at interest. With the stroke of a pen, President Kennedy declared that the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank would soon be out of business. The Christian Common Law Institute has exhaustively researched this matter through the Federal Register and Library of Congress and can now safely conclude that this Executive Order has never been repealed, amended, or superceded by any subsequent Executive Order. In simple terms, it is still valid.<br />

The British colonial governor in Bengal ‘established a colonial
monopoly on the sale of opium.’ As Alfred W. McCoy explained in his
masterful book, The Politics of Heroin:</span><br />
“As the East India
Company expanded production, opium became India’s main export. [. . . ]
Over the next 130 years, Britain actively promoted the export of Indian
opium to China, defying Chinese drug laws and fighting two wars to open
China’s opium market for its merchants. Using its military and
mercantile power, Britain played a central role in making China a vast
drug market and in accelerating opium cultivation throughout China. By
1900 China had 13.5 million addicts consuming 39,000 tons of opium.”<br />

unalterably through every change of ministers, to plainly prove a
deliberate systematical plan of reducing us to slavery.”<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">1777: Samuel Adams:</span> <br />
“…encroachments
on the peoples' liberties are not generally made all at once, but so
gradually as hardly to be perceived by the less watchful; and all

they are aware of the snare, they are taken and cannot disentangle
themselves.”<br />

“We
have no government armed with the power capable of contending with

<span style="font-weight: bold;">August
26, 1794: George Washington, referring to the democratic societies
established by French ambassador and Illuminist agent Edmond-Charles
Genêt, which incited popular uprisings against the government and
fomented the Whiskey Rebellion, attempting to replicate the horror of
the French Revolution in the newly created United States. The Writings
of George Washington, vol. 33:</span><br />
“That these societies were
instituted by the artful and designing members (many of their body I
have no doubt mean well, but know little of the real plan,) primarily to
sow the seeds of jealousy and distrust among the people, of the
government, by destroying all confidence in the Administration of it;
and that these doctrines have been budding and blowing ever since, is
not new to any one, who is acquainted with the characters of their
leaders, and has been attentive to their manoeuvres. I early gave it as
my opinion to the confidential characters around me, that, if these
Societies were not counteracted (not by prosecutions, the ready way to
make them grow stronger) or did not fall into disesteem from the
knowledge of their origin, and the views with which they had been
instituted by their father, Genet, for purposes well known to the
Government; that they would shake the government to its foundation. Time
and circumstances have confirmed me in this opinion, and I deeply
regret the probable consequences…because I see, under a display of
popular and fascinating guises, the most diabolical attempts to destroy
the best fabric of human government and happiness, that has ever been
presented for the acceptance of mankind.<br />
A part of the plan for
creating discord, is, I perceive, to make me say things of others, and
others of me, which have no foundation in truth. The first, in many
instances I know to be the case; and the second I believe to be so; but
truth or falsehood is immaterial to them, provided their objects are
promoted.”<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">1798: John Robison, Proofs of a Conspiracy, p.7-8:</span><br />
“An association has been formed for the express purpose of rooting out
all the religious establishments, and overturning all the existing
governments...that the leaders might rule the world with uncontroulable
power, while all the rest [are] employed as mere tools of the ambition
of their unknown superiors.”<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">John Robison, Proofs of a Conspiracy, p. 9:</span><br />

Association of which I have been speaking, is the Order of Illuminati,

university of Ingolstadt.”<br />

great and good ends proposed by the Illuminati as the ultimate objects
of their union, are the overthrow of religion, government, and human
society civil and domestic.”<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Yale Professor Timothy Dwight:</span><br />
“Shall our sons become the disciples of Voltaire and the dragoons of Murat, or our daughters, the concubines of the Illuminati?”<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Yale
Professor Timothy Dwight, speaking of the techniques of the Bavarian
Illuminati which was revealed in John Robson's book Proofs of a
Conspiracy, which outlined the known history of the society through the
government-siezed documents and the testimony of those who were
prosecuted:</span><br />
“Their [schemes] strike at the root of all human
happiness and virtue … [seeking] the overthrow of religion, government,

Washington, shortly before he died, read John Robison's book Proofs of a
Conspiracy and immediately expressed his belief to the preacher who had
sent it to him, that the designs of the Illuminati were infecting our
country. Letter to Reverend G. W. Snyder, Writings of George Washington,
p 518-519:</span><br />
“It was not my intention to doubt that, the
Doctrines of the Illuminati, and principles of Jacobinism had not spread
in the United States. On the contrary, no one is more truly satisfied
of this fact than I am. The idea that I meant to convey, was, that I did
not believe that the Lodges of Free Masons in this Country had, as
Societies, endeavoured to propagate the diabolical tenets of the first,
or pernicious principles of the latter (if they are susceptible of
seperation). That Individuals of them may have done it, or that the
founder, or instrument employed to found, the Democratic Societies in
the United States, may have had these objects; and actually had a
seperation of the People from their Government in view, is too evident
to be questioned.”<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">May 9, 1798: Reverend Jedidiah Morse: </span><br />
“Practically
all of the civil and ecclesiastical establishments of Europe have
already been shaken to their foundations by this terrible organization;
the French Revolution itself is doubtless to be traced to its
machinations; the successes of the French armies are to be explained on
the same ground. The Jacobins are nothing more nor less than the open
manifestation of the hidden system of the Illuminati. The Order has its
branches established and its emissaries at work in America. The
affiliated Jacobin Societies in America have doubtless had as the object
of their establishment the propagation of the principles of the
illuminated mother club in France...I hold it a duty, my brethren, which
I owe to God, to the cause of religion, to my country and to you, at
this time, to declare to you, thus honestly and faithfully, these
truths. My only aim is to awaken you and myself a due attention, at this
alarming period, to our dearest interests. As a faithful watchman I
would give you warning of your present danger.”<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">1833:</span> Skull and Bones Society formed at Yale.<br />
<br />
The
Order of Skull and Bones is one of a global network of secret societies
known as the Brotherhood of Death. Skull and Bones, was created as an
American chapter of the German Thule Society which initiated and trained
Adolf Hitler in the secret doctrine. Dope, Inc.: The Book That Drove
Kissinger Crazy is the Executive Intelligence Review's expose of the
Anglo-American oligarchy's drug smuggling syndicate since the days of
the Opium Wars, in which covert operations George H.W. Bush was the
kingpin. The authors of Dope Inc. described the Thule Society's
struggle for ideology:<br />
<br />
“Adolf Hitler's Nazi Party is the
paramount case in the West of a Gnostic movement come to power.
Hitler's world conception was specifically Gnostic. As a child, Hitler
attended the Lambach Abbey School in Lambach-am-Tram in upper Austria.
Since at least 20 years before Hitler's birth, Lambach had been a center
of Gnostic practice. Its abbot, Father Theodore Hagen, was adept in
astrology and in the fundamentals of the Gnostic heresy, with particular
affinity for thirteenth-century Catharism and Islamic Sufism. This
Benedictine monk caused a swastika to be engraved over the entrance to
the abbey school.<br />
<br />
When Hitler went to the abbey in 1899, there
was also a young Cistercian monk, Adolf Joseph Lanz, who was later to
lead Hitler through the racialist cult networks of Vienna. In 1900,
Lanz threw aside his habit, went to Vienna and founded the Order of the
New Temple, inspired by the Knights Templar. In 1905, using the name of
Georg Lanz von Liebenfels, he began to publish the racist cult journal
Ostara, dedicated to propagandizing in favor of the war between the
'Sons of Light' and the 'Sons of Darkness'; that is, the war between the
blond, blue-eyed Aryan and the dark, scheming Jew.<br />
<br />
In Munich,
Hitler was routed into Gnostic circles revolving around the Thule
Society, named after the mythical 'Ultima Thule' homeland of the Aryans
in the north, and made up of south German, Swiss, and British oligarchs
dedicated to creating a mass-based party to indoctrinate defeated
Germany with Gnostic ideas. Hitler became its chosen spokesman. <br />
<br />
Hitler's
mission was to destroy Christianity and Judaism in favor of the ancient
pagan religion. When the war was lost, Germany being invaded on every
front, catastrophe looming, Hitler's lieutenants clustered around him to
know what the Fuhrer would do. Hitler told them that, whatever the
outcome of the war, the greater war had been won. One hundred years
after his death, he predicted, Christianity would no longer exist as a
significant force in the world. That was victory, he said, to destroy
Christianity, Hitler reasoned, one must first destroy its 'agent,' the
'bacillus the Jew'; that nation of priests,' as Nietzsche had angrily
called them. The Holocaust was planned to do just that."<span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">1838:</span> <b> Abraham Lincoln:</b><br />
“At

we fortify against it? Shall we expect some transatlantic military
giant, to step the Ocean, and crush us at a blow?<br />
All the armies of
Europe, Asia and Africa combined...with a Buonaparte for a commander,
could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the
Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years.<br />
At what point, then, is
the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us it
must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be
our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of
freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.”<span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><br />

<b>The
first Humanist Manifesto is published. Co-author John Dewey, the noted
philosopher and educator, calls for a synthesizing of all religions and
"a socialized and cooperative economic order." Co-signer C.F. Potter
said in 1930:</b><br />
"Education is thus a most powerful ally of humanism,
and every American public school is a school of humanism. What can the
theistic Sunday schools, meeting for an hour once a week, teaching only a
fraction of the children, do to stem the tide of a five-day program of
humanistic teaching?"<br />

The Shape of Things to Come by H.G. Wells
is published. Wells predicts a second world war around 1940, originating
from a German-Polish dispute. After 1945 there would be an increasing
lack of public safety in "criminally infected" areas. The plan for the
"Modern World-State" would succeed on its third attempt (about 1980),
and come out of something that occurred in Basra, Iraq. The book also
states,<br />
"Although world government had been plainly coming for some
years, although it had been endlessly feared and murmured against, it
found no opposition prepared anywhere."<br />
<br />
Dr. Ernst Rudin was
commissioned by Hitler's Minister of the Interior to write a
sterilization law for Germany. Rudin's Law for the Prevention of
Hereditary Diseases in Posterity was modeled on statutes already passed
in Virginia and other states in the U.S. When Adolf Hitler and the Nazi
Party came to power in Germany, Ernst Rudin praised Hitler, giving
credit to him because "the dream we have cherished for more than thirty
years of seeing racial hygiene converted into action has become
reality."<br />
<br />
The most important American political event in those
preparations for Hitler was the infamous 'Third International Congress
on Eugenics,' held at New York's American Museum of Natural History
August 21-23, 1932, supervised by the International Federation of
Eugenics Societies. This meeting took up the stubborn persistence of
African-Americans and other allegedly 'inferior' and 'socially
inadequate' groups in reproducing, expanding their numbers, and
amalgamating with others. It was recommended that these 'dangers' to the
'better' ethnic groups and to the 'well-born,' could be dealt with by
sterilization or 'cutting off the bad stock' of the 'unfit.' Italy's
fascist government sent an official representative. Averell Harriman's
sister Mary, director of 'Entertainment' for the Congress, lived down in
Virginia fox-hunting country; her state supplied the speaker on 'racial
purity,' W.A. Plecker, Virginia commissioner of vital statistics.
Plecker reportedly held the delegates spellbound with his account of the
struggle to stop race-mixing and inter-racial sex in Virginia. The
Congress proceedings were dedicated to Averell Harriman's mother; she
had paid for the founding of the race-science movement in America back
in 1910, building the Eugenics Record Office as a branch of the Galton
National Laboratory in London. She and other Harrimans were usually
escorted to the horse races by old George Herbert Walker.<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">February 27, 1933: </span>
The Reichstag fire. In direct response to the Reichstag fire,
President von Hindenburg signed the decree "for the Protection of the
people and the State." An account of this watershed event is found at
The History Place: <br />
<br />
The exact sequence of events will never be
known, but Nazi storm troopers under the direction of Göring were also
involved in torching the place. They had befriended the arsonist [a
Communist named Van der Lubbe] and may have known or even encouraged him
to burn the Reichstag that night. The storm troopers, led by SA leader
Karl Ernst, used the underground tunnel that connected Göring's
residence with the cellar in the Reichstag. They entered the building,
scattered gasoline and incendiaries, then hurried back through the
tunnel.<br />
<br />
The deep red glow of the burning Reichstag caught the eye
of President Hindenburg and Vice-Chancellor Papen who were dining at a
club facing the building. Papen put the elderly Hindenburg in his own
car and took him to the scene. <br />
<br />
Hitler was at Goebbels' apartment
having dinner. They rushed to the scene where they met Göring who was
already screaming false charges and making threats against the
Communists.<br />
<br />
At first glance, Hitler described the fire as a beacon from heaven.<br />
<br />
“You
are now witnessing the beginning of a great epoch in German history...
This fire is the beginning,” Hitler told a news reporter at the scene. <br />
<br />
After
viewing the damage, an emergency meeting of government leaders was
held. When told of the arrest of the Communist arsonist, Van der Lubbe,
Hitler became deliberately enraged. <br />
<br />
“The German people have
been soft too long. Every Communist official must be shot. All Communist
deputies must be hanged this very night. All friends of the Communists
must be locked up. And that goes for the Social Democrats and the
Reichsbanner as well!”<br />
<br />
Hitler left the fire scene and went
straight to the offices of his newspaper, the Völkischer Beobachter, to
oversee its coverage of the fire. He stayed up all night with Goebbels
putting together a paper full of tales of a Communist plot to violently
seize power in Berlin. <br />
<br />
At a cabinet meeting held later in the
morning, February 28, Chancellor Hitler demanded an emergency decree to
overcome the crisis. He met little resistance from his largely non-Nazi
cabinet. That evening, Hitler and Papen went to Hindenburg and the
befuddled old man signed the decree “for the Protection of the people
and the State.”<br />
<br />
<b>The Emergency Decree stated: </b><br />
“Restrictions on
personal liberty, on the right of free expression of opinion, including
freedom of the press; on the rights of assembly and association; and
violations of the privacy of postal, telegraphic and telephonic
communications and warrants for house searches, orders for
confiscations as well as restrictions on property, are also permissible
beyond the legal limits otherwise prescribed.”<br />
<br />
Immediately, there
followed the first big Nazi roundup as truckloads of SA and SS roared
through the streets bursting in on known Communist hangouts and barging
into private homes. Thousands of Communists as well as Social Democrats
and liberals were taken away into 'protective custody' to SA barracks
where they were beaten and tortured.<br />
<br />
Fifty one anti-Nazis were
murdered. The Nazis suppressed all political activity, meetings and
publications of non-Nazi parties. The very act of campaigning against
the Nazis was in effect made illegal. <br />

<b>The

and the delusion that they were called to save the world. The patriotism
of the German people coupled with an irrational (mythological)
perception of their origins and destiny was psychologically manipulated
by Hitler to the point of a national flight from reason: </b><br />
"What was
to take possession of the German consciousness was a militant
romanticism... According to this way of thinking, the Divine Spirit is
manifested in the spirit of a people, in their collective genius and
total culture or Volkgeist... Germany developed a kind of communal
mysticism which contained its own Teutonic concept of a chosen people,
called to redeem civilization from its decadence...rallies were glorious
pageants that stirred the emotions, which depended not on any
revelation of Scripture, but on pure feeling... Even today, still
photographs of these meetings have a powerful and gripping presence...
The Volkish concept of the social organism was effectively symbolized in
mass meetings that expressed a sense of eternity, awe, and mystery,
effects stimulated by cathedral of light nighttime mass meetings in
which antiaircraft lights sent brilliant shafts of illumination into the
darkened sky.”<br />

wrote a long article for the Atlantic Monthly entitled "The Road to

industry Dulles was misleading in asserting Germany’s, Italy’s, and
Japan’s desires for peace. Later in the 1930s, Dulles helped organize
the American First group. A month before Pearl Harbor he donated $500 to
the group. Later he would claim no association with the group. Dulles
continued his support of the Nazi line right up to the time Germany
invaded Poland. Dulles excuse for the Poland invasion was much like

<span style="font-weight: bold;">November 1934:</span>
Retired Major General Smedley Butler, at the time of his death the
most decorated Marine in U.S. history, alleged the existence of a
political conspiracy of Wall Street interests to overthrow President
Roosevelt, a series of allegations that came to be known in the media as
the Business Plot. A special committee of the House of Representatives
headed by Representatives John W. McCormack of Massachusetts and Samuel
Dickstein of New York, who was later alleged to have been a paid agent
of the NKVD (Peoples Commissariat for Internal Affairs – communist
secret police), heard his testimony in secret. The McCormack-Dickstein
committee was a precursor to the House Committee on Un-American
Activities.<br />
<br />
Butler went to Senator John McCormack and told him
that there was a fascist plot to overthrow President Franklin Roosevelt.
Butler claimed that on 1st July 1934, Gerald C. MacGuire and Bill
Doyle, the department commander of the American Legion in Massachusetts,
tried to recruit him to lead a coup against Roosevelt. Butler told the
committee that a group of businessmen, saying they were backed by a
private army of 500,000 ex-soldiers and others, intended to establish a
fascist dictatorship. Butler had been asked to lead it, he said, by
Gerald P. MacGuire, a bond salesman with Grayson M–P Murphy & Co. <br />
<br />
In
its report, the committee stated that it was unable to confirm Butler's
statements other than the proposal from MacGuire, which it considered
more or less confirmed by MacGuire's European reports. No prosecutions
or further investigations followed, and historians have questioned
whether or not a coup was actually close to execution, although most
agree that some sort of "wild scheme" was contemplated and discussed.
The news media initially dismissed the plot, with a New York Times
editorial characterizing it as a "gigantic hoax". When the committee's
final report was released, the Times said the committee "purported to
report that a two-month investigation had convinced it that General
Butler's story of a Fascist march on Washington was alarmingly true" and
"... also alleged that definite proof had been found that the much
publicized Fascist march on Washington, which was to have been led by
Major. Gen. Smedley D. Butler, retired, according to testimony at a
hearing, was actually contemplated".<br />
<br />
The McCormack-Dickstein
Committee confirmed some of Butler's accusations in its final report.
"In the last few weeks of the committee's official life it received
evidence showing that certain persons had made an attempt to establish a
fascist organization in this country...There is no question that these
attempts were discussed, were planned, and might have been placed in
execution when and if the financial backers deemed it expedient."<br />
<br />
Butler
claimed that the American Liberty League was the main organization
behind the plot. He added the main backers were the Du Pont family, as
well as leaders of U.S. Steel, General Motors, Standard Oil, Chase
National Bank, and Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company.<br />
<br />
Butler also
named Prescott Bush as one of the conspirators. At the time Bush was
along with W. Averell Harriman, E. Roland Harriman and George Herbert
Walker, managing partners in Brown Brothers Harriman. Bush was also
director of the Harriman Fifteen Corporation. This in turn controlled
the Consolidated Silesian Steel Corporation, that owned one-third of a
complex of steel-making, coal-mining and zinc-mining activities in
Germany and Poland. Friedrich Flick owned the other two-thirds of the
operation. Flick was a leading financial supporter of the Nazi Party and
in the 1930s donated over seven million marks to the party. A close
friend of Heinrich Himmler, Flick also gave the Schutz Staffeinel (SS)
10,000 marks a year.<br />
<br />
By the end of Roosevelt's "First 100 Days,"
America's richest businessmen were in a panic. They felt Roosevelt
intended to conduct a massive redistribution of wealth from the rich to
the poor. Gen. Butler's testimony described a plot only powerful men
with money could design. First, they planned to create a fascist army,
like Italy's Black Shirts and Germany's Brown Shirts, for Butler to
lead. MacGuire claimed to have 500,000 war veterans from the American
Legion and each man was a leader of 10 others, equaling 5 million men,
if needed. A second fascist army was to be recruited from the Civilian
Conservation Corps (CCC) and financed with $700 million. Arms and
equipment would be obtained from the Remington Arms Co. and supplied by
the Du Pont family. They would model their forces after the Croix-de-Feu
in France, one of several fascists groups MacGuire studied while
touring Europe.<br />
<br />
Backed up by such manpower, Wall Street plotters
wanted Gen. Butler to deliver an ultimatum demanding either Roosevelt
pretended to be incapacitated by polio and allow Butler to takeover or
be forced out with the army of 500,000 war veterans from the American
Legion.<br />
<br />
Money was no object according to MacGuire. He provided a
bank account with $100,000 and told Butler that his Wall Street backers
had $300,000,000 if necessary. Principal conspirator and founding member
of the American Liberty League, the primary source of funds for the
plot, Robert Sterling Clark, a New York banker, told Butler he would
spend $30 million. Other major backers were leaders of U.S. Steel,
General Motors, Standard Oil, Chase National Bank, and Goodyear Tire and
Rubber Company.<br />
<br />
Most astoundingly, the Bush family was a major
backer of the coup. Prescott Bush, a founding partner of Brown Brothers
Harriman & Co., (1931) was the Wall Street front for several Nazi
companies and U.S. financial interests of Fritz Thyssen. Thyssen was an
early financial backer of the Nazi party. Bush was a director and
shareholder, along with George Herbert Walker, his father-in-law, in the
Union Banking Corporation (UBC) which also ran a complicated financial
web that supported Hitler until 1942. UBC's assets were confiscated that
year by the government, after Pres. Roosevelt signed the Trading with
the Enemy Act.<br />

<br />
A
U-boat torpedo hit the ocean liner Athenia near Britain with some 1100
passengers, of which 311 were Americans. The sea was calm and only 118
people on board lost their lives. The ship was sunk because it behaved
like a military transport, blackened out and zigzagging. This incident
wasn't enough to precipitate war, and the Germans also refused to be
provoked by several American acts of war. Americans confiscated German
merchant ships, and Americans started to support the British with
various lend-lease items, US volunteer pilots joined the RAF and some
RAF pilots were trained in the US, US gave the British 50 old but usable
WW1 destroyers and 20 modern torpedo boats, tanks, light bombers,
fighter aircraft like P-40s and so on. American destroyers also escorted
the convoys bound to Britain, and attacked German U-boats even far away
from those convoys. The US did not maintain a neutral stance attitude
towards the warring nations. <br />
<br />
The US naval intelligence, chief of
Japan desk planned and suggested "8 insults", which should bring Japan
into war with the US. President Roosevelt executed this plan immediately
and also added some other insults, enraging the Japan. The most serious
one was a total blockade of Japanese oil imports, as agreed between the
Americans, British and the Dutch. FDR also declared an all-out embargo
against the Japan and forbade them the use of Panama Canal, impeding
Japan's access to Venezuelan oil. <br />
<br />
The Flying Tigers volunteer
air group successfully fighting the Japanese in China with some 90
fairly modern P-40Bs was another effective provocation that is not
generally acknowledged by historical accounts of World War 2, most of
which fail to mention any air combat action prior to 7th December 1941.
But at that time the Japanese had already had lost about 100 military
aircraft, mostly bombers, to the Tigers. After Pearl Harbor these
squadrons were some of the the hardest-hitting ones in the US service. <br />
<br />
The
attack on Pearl Harbour followed some 6 months later. Having broken the
Japanese encryption codes, the Americans knew what was going to happen,
when and where, but the president did not dispatch this information to
Pearl Harbor. Americans even gave their friends the British 3 Magic
decrypting machines which automatically opened encrypted Japanese
military traffic. But this same information was not available to the
commanders of Hawaii. The movement of the fleet was also visible in the
very effective radio direction finding network. Japan had an alliance
with Germany, and the Germans upheld their promises by declaring the war
against the USA right after the Japanese declaration. <br />
<br />
Two
scapegoats, the navy commander Admiral Husband Kimmel, and the army
commander Lt. General Walter Short were found incompetent and demoted as
they were allowed to retire. Short died 1949 and Kimmel 1958. In 1995,
the US Congress re-examined this decision and endorsed it. Then in 2000
some archive information came to light and the US Senate passed a
resolution stating that both had served in Hawaii "competently and
professionally". In 1941 they were denied vital information, and even on
presidential orders purposefully mislead into believing that the
Japanese feet could be expected from the southwest. These commanders
have yet to be rehabilitated by the Pentagon. <br />

Consolidated
Silesian Steel Corporation was located near the Polish town of
Oswiecim. When the plan to use Soviet prisoners as forced labor fell
through, the Nazis began shipping Jews, communists, gypsies and other
minority populations to the camp the Nazis had set up. This was the
beginning of Auschwitz. The reason Auschwitz was located there was
because of the abundant supplies of coal which could be processed into
aviation fuel. I.G. Farben soon built a plant near Auschwitz to take
advantage of not only of the nearby coal deposits but also of the slave
labor supply available at Auschwitz. According to a Dutch intelligence
agent, Prescott Bush managed a portion of the slave labor force in
Poland.<br />

In Indochina in the 1940s
and 50s, the French intelligence services ‘enabled the opium trade to
survive government suppression efforts,’ and subsequently, ‘CIA
activities in Burma helped transform the Shan states from a relatively
minor poppy-cultivating area into the largest opium-growing region in
the world.’ The CIA did this by supporting the Kuomintang (KMT) army in
Burma for an invasion of China, and facilitated its monopolization and
expansion of the opium trade, allowing the KMT to remain in Burma until a
coup in 1961, when they were driven into Laos and Thailand. The CIA
subsequently played a very large role in the facilitation of the drugs
trade in Laos and Vietnam throughout the 1960s and into the 1970s.<br />

Nazi interests in the Silesian-American Corporation, long managed by

under the Trading with the Enemy Act. In this action, the government
announced that it was seizing only the Nazi interests, leaving the

company would have been detrimental to the war effort.<br />

These and

too little and too late. President Bush's family had already played a

Germany; in financing and managing the buildup of Nazi war industries
for the conquest of Europe and war against the U.S.A.; and in the
development of Nazi genocide theories and racial propaganda, with their
well-known results. <br />

follows. All children enrolled in the school district of Winston-Salem,
N.C., were given a special intelligence test. Those children who scored
below a certain arbitrary low mark were then cut open and surgically
sterilized. In Winston-Salem and in [nearby] Orange County, North

testing projects to identify school age children who should be
considered for sterilization. The project in Orange County was conducted
by the University of North Carolina and was financed by a Mr. Hanes, a

The Tavistock Institute was founded by a group of
key figures at the Tavistock Clinic including Elliott Jaques, Henry
Dicks, Leonard Browne, Ronald Hargreaves, John Rawlings Rees, Mary Luff
and Wilfred Bion, with Tommy Wilson as chairman, funded by a grant from
the Rockefeller Foundation. The Tavistock Institute was informally
known as the British psychological warfare unit and began behavior
control research in the 1950’s. The Institute also partnered with the
Mental Hygiene Society, a project of the Order of Skull and Bones of
which Prescott Bush was a director. The partnership in conjunction with
US Central Intelligence Agency along with Canadian and United Nations
agencies "would evolve into the CIA's cultural engineering effort of the
1950s, the drugs and brainwashing adventure known as 'MK-Ultra'...an
anti-American project which poured drugs into the country and worked to
fabricate the drug-sex youth culture." Its notoriety for brainwashing by
drugs, hypnosis, electroshock, and other tortures caused many books to
be written about the project, and the U.S. Senate conducted hearings
which exposed many of its abusive features. President Gerald Ford
appointed a commission headed by Vice President Nelson Rockefeller, to
correct the CIA's misconduct. The Mental Hygiene movement was organized
into the World Federation of Mental Health by none other than Montagu
Norman, Governor of the Bank of England who, with Hjalmar Schacht, the
financial engineer of the Nazi rearmament program and member of the
British Round Table, and <span class="posthilit">Benjamin</span> Strong
of the New York Federal Reserve Bank, conspired to precipitate the Great
Depression. Under Adolf Hitler, Hjalmar Schacht was appointed Minister
of Economics.<br />
<br />
“The Mental Hygiene movement was organized into
the World Federation of Mental Health by Montagu Norman, former Brown
Brothers partner and Bank of England Governor. Norman had appointed as
the federation's chairman, Brigadier John Rawlings Rees, director of the
Tavistock Psychiatric Clinic, chief psychiatrist and psychological
warfare expert for the British intelligence services...” <br />
<br />
Behind
the Tavistock Institute and its brainchild, MK-Ultra, was the largesse
of the Rockefeller Foundation, "a global instrument for radical social
change, using American money and British strategy." British psychiatry:
from eugenics to assassination by Anton Chaitkin reveals John D.
Rockefeller's interest in psychiatric genetics, which "applied to
psychiatry the concepts of eugenics (otherwise known as race
purification, race hygiene, or race betterment) developed in London's
Galton Laboratory and its offshoot Eugenics Societies in England and
America." Besides Rockefeller and the British Crown, the families of
Warburg and Harriman were the primary funders of eugenics
internationally. <br />
<br />
"The foundations 'German centers combined the
search for organic signs of mental illness with eugenic projects.... The
[Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Psychiatry in Munich] had initially been
endowed with 11 million marks, contributed by Gustav Krupp von Bohlen
und Halbach [head of the Krupp steel and arms family] and James Loeb
[Paul Warburg's brother-in-law], an expatriate American of the Kuhn-Loeb
banking family. Loeb mobilized his American-Jewish friends to support
the institute,' and they invited the foundation to reorganize and expand
the Munich enterprise. Loeb also continued financing the institute.
Loeb's relatives, the Warburgs, owners of Kuhn Loeb bank, were the
intimate banking partners of William Rockefeller. Together with him they
had set up the Harriman family in big business, using capital supplied
by the British royal family's personal banker, Sir Ernst Cassell. The
three families, Rockefeller, Warburg, and Harriman, together with
British Crown agencies, jointly sponsored much of the social engineering
enterprise. The Rockefeller Foundation made an initial grant of $2.5
million in 1925 to the Psychiatric Institute in Munich, gave it $325,000
for a new building in 1928, and continuously sponsored the institute
and its Nazi chief Rudin through the Hitler era. The foundation paid for
a 1930-35 anthropological survey of the 'eugenically worthwhile
population' by Nazi eugenicists Rudin, Verschuer, Eugen Fischer, and
others."<br />
<br />
Through funding the "research" of Ernst Rudin and Otmar
Von Verschuer, they also financed the horrific experimentation of
Verschuer's medical commandant, Josef Mengle, the "Angel of Death" of
Auschwitz whose experiments on children, especially twins, provided
scientific data for the Kaiser Wilhem Institute: <br />
"Of the 3000 twins
who passed through Mengele's labs, only 200 survived the war. Depending
on the type of experiment endured by the twins, they were driven to
various labs at Auschwitz or neighboring Birkenau camp. Most received
routine blood and x-ray tests, often on a daily basis... Mengele's
experiments both physical and psychological; experimental surgeries
performed without anesthesia, transfusions of blood from one twin to
another, isolation endurance, reaction to various stimuli, injections
with lethal germs, sex change operations, the removal of organs and
limbs, incestuous impregnations... Mengele injected chemicals into the
eyes of children in an attempt to change their eye color...
Unfortunately a strict veil of secrecy over the experiments enabled
Mengele to do his work more effectively, and 'twins who were subjected
to the most gruesome procedures took his secrets to their graves.' The
full extent of his gruesome work will never be known because the records
he sent to Dr. Von Verschuer at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute were
shipped out 'in two truckloads' and destroyed by the latter. Any
remaining notes Mengele carried with him on his escape to South America
and those were never found."<br />
<br />
Dr. Joseph Mengele of Auschwitz
notoriety was the principle developer of the MK Ultra and Monarch mind
control programs. Mengele and hundreds of other high ranking Nazis were
secretly moved into the United States and South America in the aftermath
of World War II in an Operation designated Paperclip. The Nazis
continued their work in developing mind control and rocketry
technologies in secret underground military bases. The only thing we
were told about was the rocketry work with former Nazi star celebrities
like Warner Von Braun. The killers, torturers, and mutilators of
innocent human beings were kept discretely out of sight, but busy in
their underground military facilities which soon became home to
thousands upon thousands of kidnapped American children snatched off the
streets and placed into iron bar cages stacked from floor to ceiling.
These children would be used to further refine and perfect Mengele's
mind control technologies. These children (at least the ones who
survived the 'training') would become future mind controlled slaves who
could be used for anything from sexual blackmail to assassinations.<br />

South Korean incursions (the Tiger regiment etc.) into North Korea
(1949) led to contrary claims and into war. The cause of this war
probably was covert action involving leaders of Taiwan, South Korea and
the US military-industrial complex (John Foster Dulles has been
mentioned as an organizer of the hostilities.) After the unpublished
hostilities in 1949, the communist powers were strongly backing North
Korea. <br />
<br />
Chiang Kai Sek was being abandoned, isolated and falling
prey to the powerful communist Chinese operations. The right-wing South
Korean ruler was expected to loose the soon-to-be-elections. The
American military-industrial complex went into high gear again, and huge
government orders for equipment were flowing in. <br />
<br />
The
American-led UN forces had difficult times early in the war, but after
sufficient forces arrived they advanced victoriously and penetrated deep
into the North Korea. The strong Chino-Russian intervention into the
war once again turned the tides, the Chinese with vast armies on ground,
and the Soviets less visibly with large numbers of aircraft, nearly
costing the UN forces the war. <br />
<br />
Finally the front stabilized
along the original 38th parallel armistice line. The war resulted in the
death of 3 million Korean Chinese and the destruction of virtually all
of the Korean cities, and left Taiwan in strong American protection and
South Korea firmly in the hands of the right-wing president Syngman
Rhee. Some 55,000 Americans lost their lives by the end of the Korean
War in 1954. <br />

Operation
AJAX is successful. The 1953 CIA coup in Iran was named “Operation
Ajax” and was engineered by a CIA agent named Kermit Roosevelt, the
grandson of President Theodore Roosevelt. Capitalizing on the
oil-nationalization showdown between Iran and Great Britain, which had
thrown Iran into chaos and crisis, Kermit Roosevelt skillfully used a
combination of bribery of Iranian military officials and CIA-engendered
street protests to pull off the coup.<br />
<br />
In 1951, Iran's oil
industry was nationalized with near-unanimous support of Iran's
parliament in a bill introduced by Mossadegh who led the nationalist
parliamentarian faction. Iran's oil had been controlled by the
British-owned Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (AIOC). Popular discontent with
the AIOC began in the late 1940s, a large segment of Iran's public and a
number of politicians saw the company as exploitative and a vestige of
British imperialism. Despite Mosaddegh's popular support, Britain was
unwilling to negotiate its single most valuable foreign asset, and
instigated a worldwide boycott of Iranian oil to pressure Iran
economically. Initially, Britain mobilized its military to seize
control of the Abadan oil refinery, the world's largest, but Prime
Minister Clement Attlee opted instead to tighten the economic boycott
while using Iranian agents to undermine Mosaddegh's government. With a
change to more conservative governments in both Britain and the United
States, Churchill and the U.S. Eisenhower administration decided to
overthrow Iran's government though the predecessor U.S. Truman
administration had opposed a coup.<br />
<br />
The first stage of the coup,
however, was unsuccessful, and the shah, who had partnered with the CIA
to oust Mossadegh from office, fled Tehran in fear of his life. However,
in the second stage of the coup a few days later, the CIA achieved its
goal, enabling the shah to return to Iran in triumph ... and with a
subsequent 25-year, U.S.-supported dictatorship, which included one of
the world’s most terrifying and torturous secret police, the Savak.<br />
<br />
For
years, the U.S. government, including the CIA, kept what it had done in
Iran secret from the American people and the world, although the
Iranian people long suspected CIA involvement. U.S. officials, not
surprisingly, considered the operation one of their greatest
foreign-policy successes ... until, that is, the enormous convulsion
that rocked Iranian society with the violent ouster of the shah and the
installation of a virulently anti-American Islamic regime in 1979.<br />
<br />
It
is impossible to overstate the magnitude of anger and hatred that the
Iranian people had for the U.S. government in 1979, not only because
their world-famous democratically elected prime minister had been ousted
by the CIA but also for having had to live for the following 25 years
under a brutal and torturous dictatorship, a U.S.-government-supported
dictatorship that also offended many Iranians with its policies of
Westernization. In fact, the reason that the Iranian students took
control of the U.S. embassy after the violent ouster of the shah in 1979
was their genuine fear that the U.S. government would repeat what it
had done in 1953.<br />

“The
methods followed by the various groups interested in blacking out the
truth about world affairs since 1932 are numerous and ingenious. But,
aside from subterranean persecution of individuals, they fall mainly
into the following patterns or categories: (1) Excluding scholars
suspected of revisionist [meaning opposed to the conspiracy-controlled
establishment] views from access to public documents which are freely
opened to 'court historians', and other apologists for the foreign
policy of President Franklin Roosevelt; (2) Intimidating publishers of
books and periodicals, so that even those who might wish to publish
books and articles setting forth the revisionist point of view, do not
dare to do so; (3) Ignoring or obscuring published material which
embodies revisionist facts and arguments; and (4) Smearing revisionist
authors and their books….<br />
As a matter of fact, only two small
publishing houses in the United States—the Henry Regnery Company and the
Devin-Adair Company—have shown any consistent willingness to publish
books which frankly aim to tell the truth with respect to the causes and
issues of the second World War. Leading members of the two largest
publishing houses in the country have told me that, whatever their
personal wishes in the circumstances, they would not feel it ethical to
endanger their business and the property rights of their stockholders by
publishing critical books relative to American foreign policy since
1933. And there is good reason for this hesitancy. The book clubs and
the main sales outlets for books are controlled by powerful pressure
groups which are opposed to truth on such matters. These outlets not
only refuse to market critical books in this field, but also threaten to
boycott other books by those publishers who defy their blackout
ultimatum.”<br />

we may identify as the Round Table Groups, has no aversion to
cooperating with the Communists, or any other groups and frequently does
so. I know of the operations of this network because I have studied it
for twenty years and was permitted for two years, in the early 1960s, to
examine its papers and secret records. I have no aversion to it or to
most of its aims and have, for much of my life, been close to it and to
many of its instruments. I have objected, both in the past and recently,
to a few of its policies... but in general my chief difference of
opinion is that it wishes to remain unknown, and I believe its role in

George Bush appointed CIA director by President Gerald Ford, a former
member of the pro-Nazi group, American First. During his tenure, Bush
helps provide training for the Saudi royal family's palace guard,
cementing a relationship that proves critical to the Bush family's
fortunes. Bush also privatizes various CIA assets, with Jim Bath
considered one of the beneficiaries because of his involvement in the
aircraft business. Bath will later tell a business associate he works
for the CIA and was recruited by Bush Sr. <br />
<br />
Salem Bin Laden, older
brother to future al Qaeda leader Osama, enters into a trust agreement
with Jim Bath, whereby Bath will act as the bin Laden family's
representative in North America, investing money in various business
ventures. Bath also becomes the business representative of Khalid bin
Mahfouz, a member of Saudi Arabia's most powerful banking family and
owners of the National Commercial Bank, the principal bank of the Saudi
royal family.<br />
<br />
As CIA director, George H.W. Bush ‘cemented strong
relations with the intelligence services of both Saudi Arabia and the
shah of Iran. He worked closely with Kamal Adham, the head of Saudi
intelligence, brother-in-law of King Faisal and an early BCCI insider.’
Adham had previously acted as a ‘channel between [Henry] Kissinger and
[Egyptian President] Anwar Sadat’ in 1972. <br />
<br />
Iran, Egypt, and
Saudi Arabia formed a coalition of intelligence agencies called the
Safari Club ‘to conduct through their own intelligence agencies
operations that were now difficult for the CIA,’ which was largely
organized by the head of French intelligence, Alexandre de Marenches.
This marked the discreet and highly covert coordination among various
intelligence agencies, which would last for decades. It formed at a time
when the CIA was embroiled in domestic scrutiny over the Watergate
scandal and a Congressional investigation into covert CIA activities,
forcing the CIA to become more covert in its activities. George HW Bush
was one of the chief architects of this intelligence partnership.<br />
<br />
The
Safari Club, a newly formed secret cabal of intelligence agencies,
decides it needs a network of banks to help finance its intelligence
operations. Saudi Intelligence Minister Kamal Adham is given the task. <br />
“With
the official blessing of George H. W. Bush as the head of the CIA,
Adham transformed a small Pakistani merchant bank, the Bank of Credit
and Commerce International (BCCI), into a world-wide money-laundering
machine, buying banks around the world to create the biggest clandestine
money network in history.” <br />
<br />
BCCI was founded in 1972 by a
Pakistani named Agha Hasan Abedi, who was an associate of Adham’s. Bush
himself has an account at BCCI established while still director of the
CIA. French customs will later raid the Paris BCCI branch and discover
the account in Bush’s name. Bush, Adham, and other intelligence heads
work with Abedi to contrive “a plan that seemed too good to be true. The
bank would solicit the business of every major terrorist, rebel, and
underground organization in the world. The intelligence thus gained
would be shared with ‘friends’ of BCCI.” CIA operative Raymond Close
works closely with Adham on this. BCCI taps “into the CIA’s stockpile of
misfits and malcontents to help man a 1,500-strong group of assassins
and enforcers.” Soon, BCCI becomes the fastest growing bank in the
world. Time magazine will later describe BCCI as not just a bank, but
also “a global intelligence operation and a Mafia-like enforcement
squad. Operating primarily out of the bank’s offices in Karachi,
Pakistan, the 1,500-employee black network has used sophisticated spy
equipment and techniques, along with bribery, extortion, kidnapping and
even, by some accounts, murder. The black network—so named by its own
members—stops at almost nothing to further the bank’s aims the world
over.”<br />
<br />
George Bush allowed the execution of Chilean dissident
Orlando Letelier by the fascist regime of Pinochet. Bush was fully

world wide of dissidents to the fascist military regimes in South
America.<br />

Trilateral Commission, and when Carter became President, Brzezinski
became National Security Adviser; Cyrus Vance, also a member of the
Commission, became Secretary of State; and Samuel Huntington, another
Commission member, became Coordinator of National Security and Deputy to
Brzezinski. Author and researcher Peter Dale Scott deserves much credit
for his comprehensive analysis of the events leading up to and during
the Iranian Revolution in his book, ‘The Road to 9/11’,* which provides
much of the information below.<br />
<br />
Samuel Huntington and Zbigniew
Brzezinski were to determine the US policy position in the Cold War, and
the US-Soviet policy they created was termed, ‘Cooperation and
Competition,’ in which Brzezinski would press for ‘Cooperation’ when
talking to the press, yet, privately push for ‘competition.’ So, while
Secretary of State Cyrus Vance was pursuing détente with the Soviet
Union, Brzezinski was pushing for American supremacy over the Soviet
Union. Brzezinski and Vance would come to disagree on almost every
issue.<br />
<br />
General Zia Ul Haq in Pakistan launched a military coup,
‘imposed a harsh martial-law regime,’ and executed former President
Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto (father to Benazir Bhutto). When Zia came to power,
the Pakistani ISI was a ‘minor military intelligence unit,’ but, under
the ‘advice and assistance of the CIA,’ General Zia transformed the ISI
‘into a powerful covert unit and made it the strong arm of his
martial-law regime.’<br />
<br />
The CIA and Saudi money flowed not only to
weapons and training for the Mujahideen, but also into the drug trade.
Pakistani President Zia-ul-Haq appointed General Fazle Haq as the
military governor of Pakistan’s North-West Frontier Province (NWFP), who
would ‘consult with Brzezinski on developing an Afghan resistance
program,’ and who became a CIA asset. When CIA Director Casey or Vice
President George H.W. Bush reviewed the CIA Afghan operation, they went
to see Haq; who by 1982, was considered by Interpol to be an
international narcotics trafficker. Haq moved much of the narcotics
money through the BCCI.<br />

Charles W. "Bill" White, a former Annapolis graduate and US Navy
pilot, graduates from Harvard's business school. He is then introduced
to Jim Bath who is looking for someone to manage his real estate
company. Bath hires White as his partner. Money from the bin Laden and
bin Mahfouz families is invested in Bath's real estate company. Among
other things, Bath buys the Saudis an airport, office and apartment
buildings, and invests in Texas banks. Eventually, Salem Bin Laden and
Khalid bin Mahfouz buy an enormous mansion in River Oaks, Houston's most
affluent neighborhood. <br />
<br />
George W. Bush starts up an oil company
in Texas called Arbusto. Bath will invest money from Salem bin Laden
and Khalid bin Mahfouz in this new company. Bill White is told by Bath
that more than $1-million of the Saudis' money was pumped into Bush's
venture.<br />
<br />
Zbigniew Brzezinski gave a speech in which he stated,
‘An arc of crisis stretches along the shores of the Indian Ocean, with
fragile social and political structures in a region of vital importance
to us threatened with fragmentation. The resulting political chaos could
well be filled by elements hostile to our values and sympathetic to our
adversaries.’ The Arc of Crisis stretched from Indochina to southern
Africa, although, more specifically, the particular area of focus was
‘the nations that stretch across the southern flank of the Soviet Union
from the Indian subcontinent to Turkey, and southward through the
Arabian Peninsula to the Horn of Africa.’ Further, the ‘center of
gravity of this arc is Iran, the world's fourth largest oil producer and
for more than two decades a citadel of U.S. military and economic
strength in the Middle East. Now it appears that the 37-year reign of
Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi is almost over, ended by months of rising
civil unrest and revolution.’<br />
<br />
With rising discontent in the
region, ‘There was this idea that the Islamic forces could be used
against the Soviet Union. The theory was, there was an arc of crisis,
and so an arc of Islam could be mobilized to contain the Soviets. It was
a Brzezinski concept.’ A month prior to Brzezinski’s speech, in
November of 1978, ‘President Carter named the Bilderberg group’s George
Ball, another member of the Trilateral Commission, to head a special
White House Iran task force under the National Security Council’s
Brzezinski.’ Further, ‘Ball recommended that Washington drop support for
the Shah of Iran and support the fundamentalist Islamic opposition of
Ayatollah Khomeini.’ George Ball’s visit to Iran was a secret mission.<br />
<br />
The
progressive Taraki government in Afghanistan managed to incur the anger
of the United States due to ‘its egalitarian and collectivist economic
policies.’ The Afghan government was widely portrayed in the West as
‘Communist’ and thus, a threat to US national security. The government,
did, however, undertake friendly policies and engagement with the Soviet
Union, but was not a Communist government.<br />
<br />
As the new government came to power, almost immediately the US began covertly funding rebel groups through the CIA.<br />
<br />
Throughout
1978, the Shah was under the impression that ‘the Carter administration
was plotting to topple his regime.’ In 1978, the Queen and Shah’s wife,
told Manouchehr Ganji, a minister in the Shah’s government, that, ‘I
wanted to tell you that the Americans are maneuvering to bring down the
Shah,’ and she continued saying that she believed ‘they even want to
topple the regime.’ The US Ambassador to Iran, William Sullivan,
thought that the revolution would succeed, and told this to Ramsey
Clark, former US Attorney General under the Johnson administration, as
well as professor Richard Falk, when they were visiting Sullivan in Iran
in 1978. Clark and Falk then went from Iran to Paris, to visit
Khomeini, who was there in exile. James Bill, a Carter adviser, felt
that, ‘a religious movement brought about with the United States’
assistance would be a natural friend of the United States.’<br />
<br />
Also
interesting is the fact that the British BBC broadcast pro-Khomeini
Persian-language programs daily in Iran, as a subtle form of propaganda,
which ‘gave credibility to the perception of United States and British
support of Khomeini.’ The BBC refused to give the Shah a platform to
respond, and ‘[r]epeated personal appeals from the Shah to the BBC
yielded no result.’<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">September 6, 1978: </span>
The Shah of Iran banned demonstrations, and the following day, between
700 and 2000 demonstrators were gunned down, following ‘advice from
Brzezinski to be firm.’<br />
<br />
The US Ambassador to the UN, Andrew
Young, a Trilateral Commission member, said that, ‘Khomeini will
eventually be hailed as a saint,’ and the US Ambassador to Iran, William
Sullivan, said, ‘Khomeini is a Gandhi-like figure,’ while Carter’s
adviser, James Bill, said that Khomeini was a man of ‘impeccable
integrity and honesty.’<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">1979:</span>
The Carter administration, through the CIA, begins to fund the
fledgling mujahadeen in Afghanistan – six months before the Soviet
invasion – in the hopes of drawing the USSR into its own Vietnam.<br />
<br />
Osama
bin Laden was reported to have been personally recruited by the CIA in
1979 in Istanbul. He had the close support of Prince Turki bin Faisal,
his friend and head of Saudi intelligence, and also developed ties with
Hekmatyar in Afghanistan, both of whom were pivotal figures in the
CIA-Safari Club network. General Akhtar Abdul Rahman, the head of the
Pakistani ISI from 1980 to 1987, would meet regularly with Osama bin
Laden in Pakistan, and they formed a partnership in demanding a tax on
the opium trade from warlords so that by 1985, bin Laden and the ISI
were splitting the profits of over $100 million per year.<br />
<br />
<b>Barry Goldwater, retiring Republican Senator from Arizona, publishes his autobiography With No Apologies. He writes:</b><br />
"In
my view The Trilateral Commission represents a skillful, coordinated
effort to seize control and consolidate the four centers of power --
political, monetary, intellectual, and ecclesiastical. All this is to be
done in the interest of creating a more peaceful, more productive world
community. What the Trilateralists truly intend is the creation of a
worldwide economic power superior to the political governments of the
nation-states involved. They believe the abundant materialism they
propose to create will overwhelm existing differences. As managers and
creators of the system they will rule the future."<br />
<br />
Foreign
Affairs, the journal of the Council on Foreign Relations, described the
Arc of Crisis, saying that, ‘The Middle East constitutes its central
core. Its strategic position is unequalled: it is the last major region
of the Free World directly adjacent to the Soviet Union, it holds in its
subsoil about three-fourths of the proven and estimated world oil
reserves, and it is the locus of one of the most intractable conflicts
of the twentieth century: that of Zionism versus Arab nationalism.’ It
went on to explain that post-war US policy in the region was focused on
‘containment’ of the Soviet Union, as well as access to the regions oil.
The article continued, explaining that the most ‘obvious division’
within the Middle East is, ‘that which separates the Northern Tier
(Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan) from the Arab core,’ and that, ‘After World
War II, Turkey and Iran were the two countries most immediately
threatened by Soviet territorial expansionism and political subversion.’
Ultimately, ‘the Northern Tier was assured of a serious and sustained
American commitment to save it from sharing the fate of Eastern Europe.’<br />
<br />
<b>Zbigniew
Brzezinski worked closely with his aid from the CIA, Robert Gates (who
was currently Secretary of Defense), in shifting President Carter’s
Islamic policy. As Brzezinski said in a 1998 interview with a French
publication:</b><br />
"According to the official version of history, CIA aid
to the Mujahadeen began during 1980, that is to say, after the Soviet
army invaded Afghanistan, 24 Dec 1979. But the reality, secretly guarded
until now, is completely otherwise: Indeed, it was July 3, 1979 that
President Carter signed the first directive for secret aid to the
opponents of the pro-Soviet regime in Kabul. And that very day, I wrote a
note to the president in which I explained to him that in my opinion
this aid was going to induce a Soviet military intervention."<br />
<br />
Brzezinski
elaborated, saying he ‘Knowingly increased the probability that [the
Soviets] would invade,’ and he recalled writing to Carter on the day of
the Soviet invasion that, ‘We now have the opportunity of giving to the
USSR its Vietnam war. Indeed, for almost 10 years, Moscow had to carry
on a war unsupportable by the government, a conflict that brought about
the demoralization and finally the breakup of the Soviet empire.’ When
asked about the repercussions for such support in fostering the rise of
Islamic fundamentalism, Brzezinski responded, ‘What is most important to
the history of the world? The Taliban or the collapse of the Soviet
empire? Some stirred-up Moslems or the liberation of Central Europe and
the end of the cold war?’<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">January 1979:</span>
The Shah was also very sick in late 1978 and early 1979. So the Shah
fled Iran in January of 1979 to the Bahamas, allowing for the revolution
to take place. It is especially interesting to understand the
relationship between David Rockefeller and the Shah of Iran. David
Rockefeller’s personal assistant, Joseph V. Reed, had been ‘assigned to
handle the shah’s finances and his personal needs;’ Robert Armao, who
worked for Vice President Nelson Rockefeller, was sent to ‘act as the
shah’s public relations agent and lobbyist;’ and <span class="posthilit">Benjamin</span>
H. Kean, ‘a longtime associate of Chase Manhattan Bank chairman David
Rockefeller,’ and David Rockefeller’s ‘personal physician,’ who was sent
to Mexico when the shah was there, and advised that he ‘be treated at
an American hospital.’<br />
<br />
It is important to note that Rockefeller
interests ‘had directed U.S. policy in Iran since the CIA coup of 1953.’
Following the Shah’s flight from Iran, there were increased pressures
within the United States by a handful of powerful people to have the
Shah admitted to the United States. These individuals were Zbigniew
Brzezinski, former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, John J. McCloy,
former statesman and senior member of the Bilderberg Group, Trilateral
Commission and the Council on Foreign Relations, who was also a lawyer
for Chase Manhattan, and of course, David Rockefeller.<br />
<br />
As the
Shah of Iran was about to leave the country, the American Deputy
Commander in NATO, General Huyser, arrived and over a period of a month
conferred constantly with Iranian military leaders. His influence may
have been substantial on the military's decision not to attempt a coup
and eventually to yield to the Khomeini forces, especially if press
reports are accurate that he or others threatened to withhold military
supplies if a coup were attempted.’ No coup was subsequently undertaken,
and Khomeini came to power as the Ayatollah of the Islamic Republic of
Iran.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">February 1979:</span>
Khomeini was flown out of Paris on an Air France flight, to return to
Iran, ‘with the blessing of Jimmy Carter.’ Ayatollah Khomeini named
Mehdi Bazargan as prime minister of the Provisional Revolutionary
Government on February 4, 1979. As Khomeini had demanded during his
Paris meeting in January 1979, that western powers must help in avoiding
a coup by the Iranian Army; in that same month, the Carter
administration, under the direction of Brzezinski, had begun planning a
military coup.<br />
<br />
As tensions increased among the population within
Iran, the US sent ‘security advisers’ to Iran to pressure the Shah’s
SAVAK (secret police) to implement ‘a policy of ever more brutal
repression, in a manner calculated to maximize popular antipathy to the
Shah.’ The Carter administration also began publicly criticizing the
Shah’s human rights abuses.<br />
<br />
Iran had been taking ‘steps to market
its oil independently of the Western oil majors. The Shah being
accepted into the United States, under public pressure from Henry
Kissinger, Zbigniew Brzezinski and David Rockefeller, precipitated the
hostage crisis, which occurred on November 4. Ten days later, Carter
froze all Iranian assets in US banks, on the advice of his Treasury
Secretary, William Miller. Miller just happened to have ties to Chase
Manhattan Bank.<br />
<br />
Chase Manhattan Bank had more interests in Iran
than any other US bank. In fact, the Shah had ‘ordered that all his
government’s major operating accounts be held at Chase and that letters
of credit for the purchase of oil be handled exclusively through Chase.
The bank also became the agent and lead manager for many of the loans to
Iran. In short, Iran became the crown jewel of Chase’s international
banking portfolio.’<br />
<br />
Iranian assets are frozen, ‘effectively
restricting the access of Iran to the global oil market, which became a
major factor in the huge oil price increases of 1979 and 1981.’ Added to
this, in 1979, British Petroleum cancelled major oil contracts for oil
supply, which along with cancellations taken by Royal Dutch Shell, drove
the price of oil up higher. With the first major oil price rises in
1973 (urged on by US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger), the Third
World was forced to borrow heavily from US and European banks to finance
development. With the second oil price shocks of 1979, the US Federal
Reserve, with Paul Volcker as its new Chairman, (himself having served a
career under David Rockefeller at Chase Manhattan), dramatically raised
interest rates from 2% in the late 70s to 18% in the early 80s.
Developing nations could not afford to pay such interest on their loans,
and thus the 1980s debt crisis spread throughout the Third World, with
the IMF and World Bank coming to the ‘rescue’ with their Structural
Adjustment Programs (SAPs), which ensured western control over the
developing world’s economies.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">May 1979:</span>
Prior to the December invasion of the Soviet Union into Afghanistan, a
CIA envoy met with Afghan resistance leaders in a meeting organized by
the ISI. The ISI ‘offered the CIA envoy an alliance with its own Afghan
client, Gulbuddin Hekmatyar,’ who led a small guerilla group. The CIA
accepted, and over the following decade, half of the CIA’s aid went to
Hekmatyar’s guerillas. Hekmatyar became Afghanistan’s leading
mujahideen drug lord, and developed a ‘complex of six heroin labs in an
ISI-controlled area of Baluchistan (Pakistan).’<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">September 1979:</span>
Hafizullah Amin, a top official in Taraki’s government, who many
believed to be a CIA asset, orchestrated a coup and ‘executed Taraki,
halted the reforms, and murdered, jailed, or exiled thousands of Taraki
supporters as he moved toward establishing a fundamentalist Islamic
state. But within two months, he was overthrown by PDP remnants
including elements within the military.’ The Soviets also intervened in
order to replace Amin, who was seen as ‘unpredictable and extremist’
with ‘the more moderate Barbak Karmal.’<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">1980: </span> George H.W. Bush runs for
the presidential nomination of the Republican Party, but loses to Ronald
Reagan. He becomes Reagan's running mate and eventual vice-president.<br />
<br />
The
US subsequently, through the 1980s, in conjunction with Saudi Arabia,
gave Hekmatyar more than $1 billion in armaments. Immediately, heroin
began flowing from Afghanistan to America. By 1980, drug-related deaths
in New York City rose 77% since 1979. By 1981, the drug lords in
Pakistan and Afghanistan supplied 60% of America’s heroin. Trucks going
into Afghanistan with CIA arms from Pakistan would return with heroin
‘protected by ISI papers from police search.’<br />
<br />
<b>Haq, the CIA asset
in Pakistan, ‘was also running the drug trade,’ of which the bank BCCI
‘was completely involved.’ In the 1980s, the CIA insisted that the ISI
create ‘a special cell for the use of heroin for covert actions.’
Elaborating:</b><br />
"This cell promoted the cultivation of opium and the
extraction of heroin in Pakistani territory as well as in the Afghan
territory under Mujahideen control for being smuggled into Soviet
controlled areas in order to make the Soviet troops heroin addicts."<br />
<br />
This
plan apparently originated at the suggestion of French intelligence
chief and founder of the Safari Club, Alexandre de Marenches, who
recommended it to CIA Director Casey.<br />
<br />
In the 1980s, one program
undertaken by the United States was to finance Mujahideen propaganda in
textbooks for Afghan schools. The US gave the Mujahideen $43 million in
‘non-lethal’ aid for the textbook project alone, which was given by
USAID: ‘The U.S. Agency for International Development, [USAID]
coordinated its work with the CIA, which ran the weapons program,’ and
‘The U.S. government told the AID to let the Afghan war chiefs decide
the school curriculum and the content of the textbooks.’ The textbooks
were ‘filled with violent images and militant Islamic teachings,’ and
‘were filled with talk of jihad and featured drawings of guns, bullets,
soldiers and mines.’ Even since the covert war of the 1980s, the
textbooks ‘have served since then as the Afghan school system's core
curriculum. Even the Taliban used the American-produced books.’ The
books were developed through a USAID grant to the ‘University of
Nebraska-Omaha and its Center for Afghanistan Studies,’ and when the
books were smuggled into Afghanistan through regional military leaders,
‘Children were taught to count with illustrations showing tanks,
missiles and land mines.’ USAID stopped this funding in 1994.<br />
<br />
Between
1980 and 1989, roughly $600 million was passed through Osama bin
Laden’s charity front organizations, specifically the Maktab al-Khidamat
(MAK), also known as Al-Kifah. The money mostly originated with wealthy
donors in Saudi Arabia and other areas in the Persian Gulf, and was
funneled through his charity fronts to arm and fund the mujahideen in
Afghanistan.<br />
<br />
In the 1980s, the British Special Forces (SAS) were
training mujahideen in Afghanistan, as well as in secret camps in
Scotland, and the SAS is largely taking orders from the CIA. The CIA
also indirectly begins to arm Osama bin Laden. Osama bin Laden’s front
charity, the MAK, ‘was nurtured’ by the Pakistani ISI. Fearing a
diplomatic incident, CIA and other US agents rarely venture into
Afghanistan. Generally speaking, soldiers from the British elite Special
Air Service (SAS) work with and train the mujaheddin instead. The SAS
provides weapons training in Afghanistan until 1982 when Russian
soldiers find the passports of two British instructors in a training
camp. After that, mujaheddin are trained in secret camps in remote parts
of Scotland. When the US decides to supply Stinger missiles to the
mujaheddin in 1986, it is the SAS who provide the training in how to use
them (see September 1986). But the SAS is taking orders from the CIA.
The CIA also indirectly gives weapons to Osama bin Laden and other
mujaheddin leaders. One former US intelligence official said in 1999,
“[US agents] armed [bin Laden’s] men by letting him pay rock-bottom
prices for basic weapons.” But this person notes the relationship will
later prove to be embarrassing to bin Laden and the CIA. “Of course it’s
not something they want to talk about.”<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">April 1980:</span>
Five months before Iraq invaded Iran, Zbigniew Brzezinski openly
declared the willingness of the US to work closely with Iraq. Two months
before the war, Brzezinski met with Saddam Hussein in Jordan, where he
gave support for the destabilization of Iran. While Saddam was in
Jordan, he also met with three senior CIA agents, which was arranged by
King Hussein of Jordan. He then went to meet with King Fahd in Saudi
Arabia, informing him of his plans to invade Iran, and then met with the
King of Kuwait to inform him of the same thing. He gained support from
America, and financial and arms support from the Arab oil producing
countries. Arms to Iraq were funneled through Jordan, Saudi Arabia and
Kuwait. The war lasted until 1988 and resulted in over a million deaths.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">September 22, 1980:</span>
Iraq invaded Iran, launching a simultaneous invasion by air and land
into Iranian territory. Iraq was aiming to replace Iran as the dominant
Persian Gulf state. Although Iraq hoped to take advantage of the
revolutionary chaos in Iran and attacked without formal warning, they
made only limited progress into Iran and within several months were
repelled by the Iranians who regained virtually all lost territory by
June 1982. For the next six years, Iran was on the offensive.<br />
<br />
The
US has built power bases in the Middle East in Iran starting with the
CIA-organized coup 1953 called Operation AJAX (initiated to secure
Iran’s plentiful oil reserves for British Petroleum), where Iranian
prime minister Mossadeq was replaced with the Shah of Iran Reza Pahlavi
and he by his son Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. Iran was equipped with the best
western military equipment, including the American F-14 fighters with
Phoenix missiles and the British Chieftain MBTs. Unfortunately, in 1979 a
coup of ayatollah Khomeini replacing the Shah and founding an Islamite
nation. <br />
<br />
After this, the US warmed up relations with Saddam
Hussein (whom the CIA had trained and assisted for over two decades in
gaining leadership of Iraq), and started to build a nation capable of
challenging the Iranians. Iraq acquired large numbers of effective
weapons including factories able to produce older versions of gas
warfare agents. These would later be called WMDs, which of course they
were not, being the WW1-vintage weapons. <br />
<br />
The war broke out and
was fought to exhaustion because third-party powers, especially Israel,
were carefully monitoring the power balance supplying more weapons to
the side which seemed to be losing. "Too bad they both cannot lose" is
how Kissinger evaluated this situation. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><span style="font-weight: bold;">1981: </span>
Osama bin Laden, son of the founder of the Bin Laden Group, the largest
construction company in Saudi Arabia, travels to Afghanistan to help
the mujahadeen in their bloody war against the Soviet Union.<br />
<br />
It
was during the 1980s that ‘the CIA’s covert war in Afghanistan
transformed Central Asia from a self-contained opium zone into a major
supplier of heroin for the world market,’ as:<br />
“Until the late 1970s,
tribal farmers in the highlands of Afghanistan and Pakistan grew limited
quantities of opium and sold it to merchant caravans bound west for
Iran and east to India. In its decade of covert warfare against the
Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, the CIA’s operations provided the
political protection and logistics linkages that joined Afghanistan’s
poppy fields to heroin markets in Europe and America.”<br />
<br />
All of the SEC records of Zapata Oil Company between 1960 and 1966 disappeared.<br />
<br />
Director
Casey of the CIA worked with Saudi Prince Turki bin Faisal who ran the
Saudi intelligence agency GID, and the Pakistani ISI ‘to create a
foreign legion of jihadi Muslims or so-called Arab Afghans.’ This idea
had ‘originated in the elite Safari Club that had been created by French
intelligence chief Alexandre de Marenches.’<br />
<br />
The Soviet invasion
thus prompted the US national security establishment to undertake the
largest covert operation in history. When Ronald Reagan replaced Jimmy
Carter in 1981, the covert assistance to the Afghan Mujahideen not only
continued on the path set by Brzezinski but it rapidly accelerated, as
did the overall strategy in the ‘Arc of Crisis.’ When Reagan became
President, his Vice President became George H.W. Bush, who, as CIA
director during the Ford administration, had helped establish the Safari
Club intelligence network and the Bank of Credit and Commerce
International (BCCI) in Pakistan. In the ‘campaign to aid the Afghan
rebels ... BCCI clearly emerged as a U.S. intelligence asset,’ and CIA
Director ‘Casey began to use the outside – the Saudis, the Pakistanis,
BCCI – to run what they couldn’t get through Congress. [BCCI president]
Abedi had the money to help,’ and the CIA director had ‘met repeatedly’
with the president of BCCI.<br />

commissioner, overrules the Public Board of Inquiry, ignores the
recommendations of his own internal FDA team and approves NutraSweet for
dry products. In order to accomplish this feat, Hayes had to overlook
the scuttled grand jury investigation of Searle (concerning criminal
charges against officials in the G. D. Searle Company "for concealing
material facts and making false statements" in reports of safety tests
on NutraSweet and another drug, Aldactone - a diuretic), overcome the
Bressler Report (Jerome Bressler blew the whistle on the fraudulent
animal studies and his report was kept under FDA seal for 3 decades
until Oct 2009), ignore the Public Board of Inquiry's (PBOI)
recommendations and pretend aspartame did not chronically sicken and
kill thousands of lab animals. Hayes says that aspartame has been shown
to be safe for its' proposed uses and says few compounds have withstood
such detailed testing and repeated close scrutiny.<br />

The National Soft Drink Association (NSDA) urges the FDA to delay
approval of aspartame for carbonated beverages pending further testing

<br />
Bin Laden discussed ‘the
establishment of a new military group,’ which would come to be known as
Al-Qaeda. Osama bin Laden’s charity front, the MAK, (eventually to form
Al-Qaeda) founded the al-Kifah Center in Brooklyn, New York, to recruit
Muslims for the jihad against the Soviets. The al-Kifah Center was
founded in the late 1980s with the support of the U.S. government, which
provided visas for known terrorists associated with the organization,
including Ali Mohamed, the ‘blind sheik’ Omar Abdel Rahman and possibly
the lead 9/11 hijacker, Mohamed Atta.<br />
<br />
This coincided with the
creation of Al-Qaeda, of which the al-Kifah Center was a recruiting
front. Foot soldiers for Al-Qaeda were ‘admitted to the United States
for training under a special visa program.’ The FBI had been surveilling
the training of terrorists, however, ‘it terminated this surveillance
in the fall of 1989.’ In 1990, the CIA granted Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman a
visa to come run the al-Kifah Center, who was considered an
‘untouchable’ as he was ‘being protected by no fewer than three
agencies,’ including the State Department, the National Security Agency
(NSA) and the CIA.<br />
<br />
<b>Robin Cook, a former British MP and Minister
of Foreign Affairs wrote that Al-Qaeda, ‘literally ‘the database’, was
originally the computer file of the thousands of mujahideen who were
recruited and trained with help from the CIA to defeat the Russians.’
Thus, ‘Al-Qaeda’ was born as an instrument of western intelligence
agencies. This account of al-Qaeda was further corroborated by a former
French military intelligence agent, who stated that, ‘In the mid-1980s,
Al Qaida was a database,’ and that it remained as such into the 1990s.
He contended that, ‘Al Qaida was neither a terrorist group nor Osama bin
Laden's personal property,’ and further:</b><br />
“The truth is, there is no
Islamic army or terrorist group called Al Qaida. And any informed
intelligence officer knows this. But there is a propaganda campaign to
make the public believe in the presence of an identified entity
representing the 'devil' only in order to drive the 'TV watcher' to
accept a unified international leadership for a war against terrorism.
The country behind this propaganda is the US and the lobbyists for the
US war on terrorism are only interested in making money.”<br />
<br />
The
creation of Al-Qaeda was thus facilitated by the CIA and allied
intelligence networks, the purpose of which was to maintain this
‘database’ of Mujahideen to be used as intelligence assets to achieve US
foreign policy objectives, throughout both the Cold War, and into the
post-Cold War era of the ‘new world order’.<br />
<br />
<b>Former Under-secretary of State and CFR member George Ball in a January 24 interview in the New York Times says:</b><br />
"The
Cold War should no longer be the kind of obsessive concern that it is.
Neither side is going to attack the other deliberately... If we could
internationalize by using the U.N. in conjunction with the Soviet Union,
because we now no longer have to fear, in most cases, a Soviet veto,
then we could begin to transform the shape of the world and might get
the U.N. back to doing something useful... Sooner or later we are going
to have to face restructuring our institutions so that they are not
confined merely to the nation-states. Start first on a regional and
ultimately you could move to a world basis."<br />

The U.S. Agency for
International Development signed its latest contract with the old
Sterilization League (a.k.a. Association for Voluntary Surgical
Contraception), committing the U.S. government to spend $80 million over
five years. Having gotten away with sterilizing several hundred North
Carolina school children, the identical group was then authorized by
President Bush to do it to 58 countries in Asia, Africa and
Ibero-America. The group modestly claims it has directly sterilized only
two million people, with 87 percent of the bill paid by U.S. taxpayers.
Meanwhile, Dr. Clarence Gamble, Boyden Gray's favorite soap
manufacturer, formed his own "Pathfinder Fund" as a split-off from the
Sterilization League. Gamble's Pathfinder Fund, with additional millions
from USAID, concentrates on penetration of local social groups in the
non-white countries, to break down psychological resistance to the
surgical sterilization teams. <br />

George HW Bush takes oath of office as President placing his assets in
a blind trust managed by William Farish III, grandson of the William S.
Farish that supplied Hitler with gas.<br />
<br />
<b>William Farish III managed
the fortune of his best friend, George H.W. Bush, during his terms as
Vice President and President of the United States. William Farish's
father, whose daughter married Averell Harriman's nephew, was president
of Standard Oil of New Jersey/Rockefeller. Citing Charles Higham's
Trading With The Enemy, the Bush biographers state: </b><br />
"In 1933, as
what Hitler called his 'New Order' appeared, John D. Rockefeller, Jr.
appointed William S. Farish the chairman of Standard Oil Co. of New
Jersey (in 1937 he was made president and chief executive). Farish moved
his offices to Rockefeller Center, New York, where he spent a good deal
of time with Hermann Schmitz, chairman of I.G. Farben; his company
paid a publicity man, Ivy Lee, to write pro-I.G. Farben and pro-Nazi
propaganda and get it into the U.S. press." <br />
<br />
The Warburgs,
Rockefeller's partners in banking and the development of Nazi eugenics,
initially directed I.G. Farben, which was essentially the same entity as
Standard Oil of New Jersey. William S. Farish then directed this
concern which opened Auschwitz in 1940. <br />
<br />
"The German chemical
company IG Farben and Rockefeller's Standard Oil of New Jersey were
effectively a single firm, merged in hundreds of cartel arrangements. IG
Farben was led, up until 1937 by the Warburg family, Rockefeller's
partners in banking and in the design of Nazi German eugenics.
Following the Nazi invasion of Poland in September 1939, Britain and
Germany declared war on each other and World War II began. But later
that month, Standard Oil executives flew to the Netherlands on a British
Royal Air Force bomber and met with IG Farben executives. Standard Oil
pledged to keep the merger with IG Farben going even if the United
States entered the war. This was exposed in 1942 by Sen. Harry Truman's
investigating committee, and President Franklin Roosevelt took hundreds
of legal measures during the war to counter the Standard Oil-IG Farben
cartel's supply operation for the enemy war machine. In 1940-41, IG
Farben built a gigantic factory at Auschwitz in Poland, to utilize the
Standard Oil-IG Farben patents with concentration camp slave labor to
make gasoline from coal. The SS guarded the Jewish and other inmates and
selected for killing those who were unfit for IG Farben slave labor.
Standard-Germany President Emil Helfferich testified after the war that
Standard Oil funds helped pay for the SS guards at Auschwitz. On March
26, 1940, six months after the Standard Oil-IG Farben meeting, European
Rockefeller Foundation official Daniel O'Brian wrote to the foundation's
chief medical officer Alan Gregg that 'it would be unfortunate if it
was chosen to stop research which has no relation to war issues.' The
'non-war- related' research continued. {The Rockefeller Foundation
defends its record by claiming that its funding of Nazi German programs
during World War II was limited to psychiatric research."<br />

Boyden Gray was chief legal advisor to George
H.W. Bush as president. Gray's grandfather, Bowman Gray, owned R.J.
Reynolds Tobacco Co. and his father, Gordon Gray, founded Bowman Gray
Medical School in Winston-Salem, NC as a center for
eugenics/sterilization research. Boyden Gray's father organized the
pilot project for the present worldwide sterilization program. Dr.
Claude Nash Herndon, who was professor of medical genetics at Bowman
Gray Medical School, became president of the American Eugenics Society
in 1953 at which time the society merged with the Population Council

The Soviets pull out of Afghanistan
after the CIA spends (US) $3-billion on the largest covert operation in
its history (Operation Cyclone). Osama bin Laden returns to Saudi
Arabia, angry with how the Americans abandoned Afghanistan after the
Soviet retreat.<br />
<br />
When the Soviets withdrew from Afghanistan, the
fighting continued between the Afghan government backed by the USSR and
the Mujahideen backed by the US, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan. When the
Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, so too did its aid to the Afghan
government, which itself was overthrown in 1992. However, fighting
almost immediately broke out between rival factions vying for power,
including Hekmatyar.<br />
<br />
In the early 1990s, an obscure group of
‘Pashtun country folk’ had become a powerful military and political
force in Afghanistan, known as the Taliban. The Taliban ‘surfaced as a
small militia force operating near Kandahar city during the spring and
summer of 1994, carrying out vigilante attacks against minor warlords.’
As growing discontent with the warlords grew, so too did the reputation
of the Taliban. The Taliban acquired an alliance with the ISI in 1994,
and throughout 1995, the relationship between the Taliban and the ISI
accelerated and ‘became more and more of a direct military alliance.’
The Taliban ultimately became ‘an asset of the ISI’ and ‘a client of the
Pakistan army.’ Further, ‘Between 1994 and 1996, the USA supported the
Taliban politically through its allies Pakistan and Saudi Arabia,
essentially because Washington viewed the Taliban as anti-Iranian,
anti-Shia, and pro-Western.’<br />
<br />
Selig Harrison, a scholar with the
Woodrow Wilson International Centre for Scholars and ‘a leading US
expert on South Asia,’ said at a conference in India that the CIA worked
with Pakistan to create the Taliban. Harrison has ‘extensive contact’
with the CIA, as ‘he had meetings with CIA leaders at the time when
Islamic forces were being strengthened in Afghanistan,’ while he was a
senior associate of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. As
he further revealed in 2001, ‘The CIA still has close links with the
ISI.’ By 1996, the Taliban had control of Kandahar, but still fighting
and instability continued in the country.<br />

care about Arab quarrels. That was a trap, and after Saddam occupied
Kuwait, George Bush Sr. mobilized a coalition of some 40 nations to
"liberate Kuwait" and to smash the recently-built Iraqi military power
base. This also involved a media hoax, where the daughter of Kuwaiti US
ambassador played nurse on TV and testified to "witnessing" Iraqi

President Bush announced that he had created the cabinet-level Office
of Homeland Security, with Pennsylvania governor Tom Ridge as its head.
Most people were utterly unaware of the significance of Bush's new
bureaucracy. The Homeland Defense Agency was not a new idea. Conceived
by a bi-partisan commission headed by former senators Gary Hart and
Warren Rudman, this Clinton-era conception called “The Phase III Report
Of The U.S. Commission On National Security/21st Century” is basically
the framework for a permanent military-bureaucratic American police
state. <br />
<a href="http://www.rense.com/general10/roadmap.htm">Source</a><br />
<br />
The
new Homeland Defense Agency is the lynchpin of a plan that extensively
reorganizes both the executive and legislative functions of the U.S.
government. Among other things, the plan makes the National Guard a
national police force. It extensively federalizes both the study and the
work of science, mathematics, and engineering. It creates numerous new
sub-bureaucracies. The Homeland Security agency itself is to 'be built
upon the Federal Emergency Management Agency, with the three
organizations currently on the front line of border security - the Coast
Guard, the Customs Service, and the Border Patrol - transferred to it.'
The plan calls for the new agency to oversee activities of the
Department of Defense, as well as to assume a variety of duties now held
by agencies from the Department of Commerce to the FBI.<br />
<br />
The
Anti-Terrorism Act of 2001 - The U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary
Committee steamrolled through the Congress a bill which would
dramatically increase the power of U.S. law enforcement agencies.
Attorney General John Ashcroft insisted that the FBI needed additional
surveillance and enforcement powers immediately and the Department of
Justice demanded the bill be enacted by September 28. The House
Judiciary committee was scheduled to vote on the Bush administration's
bill on the morning of September 25; however, in response to an outcry
the vote was rescheduled to take place only two days after the
catastrophic attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. The
Senate voted for anti-terrorist legislation which increased Internet
surveillance after senators were given just 30 minutes to read the
measure.<br />
<br />
Coverage on Monday, September 24, of the Anti-Terrorism
Act was limited to Attorney General John Ashcroft's testimony urging
hasty passage of the sweeping new police powers sought by the Bush
administration. Although Ashcroft’s testimony was open to television
cameras, the committee's Republican staff ordered camera crews to leave
when civil liberties and free-speech advocates were called to testify.
This happened in violation of House rules which state, "Whenever a
hearing or meeting conducted by a committee or subcommittee is open to
the public, those proceedings shall be open to coverage by audio and
visual means.”<br />

Within two weeks of the WTC/Pentagon attacks,
ORACLE Chairman and CEO Larry Ellison called for the United States to

Operation Enduring Freedom (Afghanistan invasion) was launched.
Without any evidence, the former CIA-asset, a Saudi-Arabian Osama bin
Laden was claimed to be the mastermind behind the 9/11 strikes at the
WTC and the Pentagon. Such a complex operation, if actually executed,
would be much beyond the capabilities of anything in Afghanistan. Only
some top ten intelligence services in the world could hope to be
successful in such an operation involving forgery, infiltration, living
"underground" in a foreign non-Muslim country, coordination of moves,
illegal arms, hi-quality flight training, and accurate aircraft
navigation in no-visibility conditions and so on. Perhaps even less,
because the friends of the US (at that time, still most of the world)
would also have been interested in stopping the attack. <br />

President George W Bush signs Executive Order 13233, under which a
former president's private papers can be released only with the approval
of both that former president (or his heirs) and the current one.
Before that executive order, the National Archives had controlled the
release of documents under the Presidential Records Act of 1978, which
stipulated that all papers, except those pertaining to national
security, had to be made available 12 years after a president left
office. Now, however, Mr. Bush can prevent the public from knowing not
only what he did in office, but what Bill Clinton, George H. W. Bush and
Ronald Reagan did in the name of democracy. (Although Mr. Reagan's term
ended more than 12 years before the executive order, the Bush
administration had filed paperwork in early 2001 to stop the clock, and
thus his papers fall under it.)<br />
<br />
The administration's effort to
grandfather the Reagan papers under the act also raised a red flag.
President Bush's signature stopped the National Archives from a planned
release of documents from the Reagan era, some of which might have shed
light on the Iran-contra scandal and illuminated the role played by the
vice president at the time, George H. W. Bush. <br />

world-wide money-laundering machine, buying banks around the world to
create the biggest clandestine money network in history.’<br />
<br />
"And
now I will go back to the secret that I promised to tell you. In 1976,
after the Watergate matters took place here, your intelligence community
was literally tied up by Congress. It could not do anything. It could
not send spies, it could not write reports, and it could not pay money.
In order to compensate for that, a group of countries got together in
the hope of fighting Communism and established what was called the
Safari Club. The Safari Club included France, Egypt, Saudi Arabia,
Morocco, and Iran. The principal aim of this club was that we would
share information with each other in countering Soviet influence
worldwide, and especially in Africa. In the 1970s, there were still some
countries in Africa that were coming out of colonialism, among them
Mozambique, Angola, and I think Djibouti. The main concern of everybody
was that the spread of Communism was taking place while the main
country that would oppose Communism was tied up. Congress had literally
paralyzed the work not only of the U.S. intelligence community but of
its foreign service as well. And so the Kingdom, with these countries,
helped in some way, I believe, to keep the world safe at the time when
the United States was not able to do that. That, I think, is a secret
that many of you don't know. I am not saying it because I look to tell
secrets, but because the time has gone and many of the actors are gone
as well. <br />
<br />
Exploiting the threat of communism was commonplace
within the dialectical climate of the Cold War. Conflict invariably
gives rise to security discourses. In turn, security discourses are
dominated by fear. When the politics of fear become the order of the
day, concepts such as civil liberty and the rule of law are
automatically subordinated to security concerns. Such circumstances
tend to engender contempt toward democratic processes and, eventually,
contrarians are portrayed as enemies of the State. More and more power
becomes concentrated within the State, an entity that is already
susceptible to the harmful influences of indifferent political and
technical elites. Naturally, such a state of affairs would prove
advantageous to America’s ruling class, who continually promoted their
own variety of socialism as an alternative to communism. Thus, the
Western elite had a vested interest in maintaining the dialectical
climate of the Cold War. The Safari Club, which embodied the coalition
between American oligarchs and the Saudi royal family, was instrumental
in realizing this goal.”<br />

“For
more than a century, ideological extremists at either end of the
political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents to attack
the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield
over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we
are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the
United States, characterizing my family and me as "internationalists"
and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more
integrated global political and economic structure — one world, if you
will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it.”<br />

Donald Rumsfeld (defence secretary), Paul Wolfowitz (Rumsfeld's deputy),
George W Bush's younger brother Jeb and Lewis Libby (Cheney's chief of

Operation Enduring Justice later known with less irony as Operation

Iraq was a clear and present danger to the US with WMD's. Since no WMD's
were found, and after the Iraqi’s scrapped some 800 long range Scud
style missiles prior to the US coalition attack, the reason for the
invasion was changed into "bringing democracy to Iraq". <br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><span style="font-weight: bold;">May 2009: </span>
Respected American journalist Seymour Hersh shared a shocking revelation
during an Arab TV interview. According to Hersh, Pakistan's former
prime minister, Benazir Bhutto, was a victim of a “special death squad
formed by former U.S. vice-president Dick Cheney” (“U.S. special squad
killed Benazir”). This squad was “headed by General Stanley McChrystal,
the newly-appointed commander of U.S. army in Afghanistan” with Cheney
using his position as chief of the Joint Special Operation Command to
“clear the way for the U.S. by exterminating opponents through the unit
and the CIA” (ibid). <br />
<br />
Hersh has speculated that Bhutto was
assassinated because she shared her opinion that Osama Bin Laden had
been assassinated by Omar Saeed Sheikh (ibid). Could there be, however, a
deeper reason for the Bhutto hit? These writers suggested as much
during interviews on several radio shows shortly after the December 27,
2007 assassination. At that time, many in the media were blaming al
Qaeda for the hit. The chief source for this claim seems to have been an
“obscure Italian Web site” that alleged that its reporter had received a
telephone call from Mustafa Abu al-Yazid, al Qaeda's commander in
Afghanistan (Ross). During the call, al-Yazid supposedly stated: “We
terminated the most precious American asset which vowed to defeat [the]
mujahedeen” (ibid). The Web site further contended that Ayman al
Zawahri, al Qaeda's number two leader, decided it was time to do away
with Bhutto back in October 2007 (ibid). While all of this sounded like a
smoking gun, the claim was anything but conclusive. According to ABC's
Brian Ross, U.S. intelligence officials said they could not confirm the
claim of responsibility for the attack (ibid).<br />
<br />
While al Qaeda may
very well have been involved in the assassination, it should be
understood that al Qaeda is merely part of a larger conspiratorial
infrastructure, so it may not be accurate to place the blame solely at
the doorstep of a single terrorist organization. Bhutto had vowed to do
many things that would invite violent reprisal if she was re-elected
prime minister. One promise that probably set off several alarm bells
among the world's wealthy and powerful appeared in a September 26, 2007
report in the Times of India. According to the report, Bhutto promised
to allow inspectors from the United Nation's International Atomic Energy
Agency (IAEA) to question A.Q. Khan, the metallurgist nuclear black
marketer and father of Pakistan's “Islamic Bomb” (“Bhutto commits to
letting IAEA question A.Q. Khan”).<br />
<br />
<b>During a visit to Washington
before returning to Pakistan from her self-imposed exile, the former
prime minister stated before the Middle East Institute: </b><br />
“While we do not
agree at this stage to have any Western access to A.Q. Khan, we do
believe that IAEA... would have the right to question A.Q. Khan” (ibid).
Bhutto almost certainly understood that Khan's revelations to the
inspectors would implicitly suggest that wealthy and powerful
individuals who comprise the global oligarchical establishment were
involved in the creation and shepherding of the Khan nuclear
proliferation network. While she did not overtly say as much, Bhutto
subtly suggested that Khan was anything but a rogue when she stated:
“Many Pakistanis are cynical about whether A.Q. Khan could have done
this without any official sanction” (ibid). The former prime minister
was signing her own death warrant by ripping the veil off of one of the
oligarchs' deepest, darkest, and closely-guarded secrets: the power
elite and dark factions within the intelligence community had assisted
Khan in making the world a more dangerous place. <br />
<br />
The Khan
network was created by an alliance between the American elite and the
Saudi elites known as the Safari Club. Thanks to this alliance, Saudi
Arabia supplanted Israel as the CIA's chief source of regional
intelligence (Trento 99). For quite some time, counterintelligence chief
James Angleton had maintained a “special relationship with Israel,” an
association that the CIA resented (99). However, Angleton’s dismissal in
1974 precipitated the decline of the pro-Israel elements within the
Agency (99). With these elements significantly weakened, the CIA was
free to forge ties with the Saudi royals in 1976. At the time, the
Agency had been struggling with a substantial lack of political capital.
In 1973, America's ground involvement in Vietnam met with an
ignominious end. This humiliating anti-climax was compounded by the fall
of Saigon two years later. In addition, 1974 witnessed the startling
revelations of the Watergate scandal, which generated considerable
public outrage. By 1976, America’s patience with the CIA had been
exhausted. The infamous "Year of Intelligence" had begun.<br />
<br />
Voluminous
instances of unlawful activity within the intelligence community
eventually came under the indignant scrutiny of the Church and Pike
Committees. Congress defunded all intelligence operations abroad,
necessitating the Agency’s solicitation of the Saudis for badly needed
funds. The Saudi royal family cemented their control over America’s
intelligence financing with the formation of the Safari Club (102). The
all-purpose banner of anti-communism supplied an expedient rationale for
this questionable partnership. <br />

....wish they had pointed out a few things like - 1) I always hear this talk about the children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, etc....having to pay off this debt - Isn't that slavery? Who's going to hold a gun to their heads and enforce payment?
2) Who do we owe the money to? Debt is essentially a contract for future labor....what real collateral was put forth for the labor? In other words did a real exchange of goods for labor or assets for labor occur? If not isn't this a complete fraud? If its a fraud are we really in debt? Do we have an obligation to pay the "debt"? In order for a contract to be valid doesn't there have to be due consideration for both parties to the contract?<br />
<br />
Now we know that bankers create the money out of nothing in return for a contract on the benefit of our future labor (money + interest) and that if for some reason (like the money for interest never being created thus guaranteeing someone somewhere will go bankrupt....or must take out more debt) our labor won't cover the debt...then the bank gets the asset.
So with this inherent design of our monetary system (also global as demonstrated by the video above) which I might call a pit.....don't we have to take on greater and greater levels of debt in order for everyone to pay back the debt? doesn't that cause inflation and devalue our labor whilst the cost of obtaining assets rises?
.....don't we reach a point where we can barely cover the debt service payments with our labor (debt saturation)? at which point the system by design is guaranteed to go into a deflationary spiral? doesn't this deflationary spiral effectively transfer all assets to the creator of the debt - the banks? don't people wake up at this point and realize they've become slaves as the result of a fraudulent system?
...is it physically possible to pay off this debt?<br />

...well that should be a pretty good financial background to assimilate the rest!<br />
<br />
Here are a couple of my thoughts on on the banking dilemma and our personal leverage points (fwiw) -<br />
<br />
(1) Move bank accounts to <span class="posthilit">banks</span> that aren't involved in everything from money laundering for the Mexican drug cartels (<a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/apr/03/us-bank-mexico-drug-gangs">Wachovia</a>/<a href="http://beforeitsnews.com/story/680/416/Wall_Streets_Role_in_Narco-Trafficking_-_Business_is_Booming.html">WellsFargo</a>) to extensive derivative exposure (<a href="http://www.zerohedge.com/news/five-banks-account-96-250-trillion-outstanding-derivative-exposure-morgan-stanley-sitting-fx-de">Five Banks</a>) to mortgage fraud (<a href="http://news.firedoglake.com/2011/11/01/administration-favors-settling-with-banks-on-criminal-actions-theyre-still-engaged-in/">MERS</a>) - i.e smaller local <span class="posthilit">banks</span>
and credit unions. Personally I have completely closed out my
business and personal accounts with Wells Fargo and shifted to multiple credit unions. Basically vote with your dollars or
shut up about it.<br />
<br />
(2) At some point in the not so distant future
(???) we will need to withdraw our deposits while they are
still accessible. If we look at Argentina as an example, you see the
sort of controls that are rapidly implemented to limit one's access to
cash via withdrawal limits that can easily be imposed. Hence my
diversification to possibly circumvent this to some extent (may not be
much of a strategy). <br />
<br />
(3) Also plan that at some point (not so
distant future) that credit may be completely shut off. Personally I
have utilized plastic much of the time and pay the bill at the end of the
month to get points, dollars back, etc. While useful this always puts me one
month behind - I'm always paying last month's bill with this month's
income. If you shift to cash you'll always have cash on hand (besides
what should be tucked away for rainy days)....as well as up to date on
your expenses.<br />

...the whole point of oppressive government - the control or use of force
to decide who gets what. That's why the government is so heavily
invested in every major industry in the world....and have created legal
control points to dictate where money flows (FDA, USDA, Fanny, Freddie,
etc etc etc). Whoever controls the government....controls the flow of
money via legal (and illegal) schemes....and can profit accordingly (and
escape justice). Another reason the only legal insider trading is via
our "representatives" in Congress. Why else would a person spend
millions for a $75k per year job??? The reality is....because they can
make millions trading with the insider knowledge they will obtain
concerning where the money will flow...as well as making some of those
decisions directly.<br />

so tyranny naturally rises out of democracy, and the most aggravated

The people have always some champion whom they set over them and nurse
into greatness.… This and no other is the root from which a tyrant
springs; when he first appears above ground he is a protector… At first,
at the early days of his power, he is full of smiles, and he salutes
everyone whom he meets — he to be called a tyrant, who is making
promises in public and also in private liberating debtors, and
distributing land to the people and his followers, and wanting to be so
kind and good to everyone … then he is always stirring up some war or
other, in order that the people may require a leader.… Has he not also
another object, which is that they may be impoverished by the payment of
taxes and thus compelled to devote themselves to their daily wants and
therefore less likely to conspire against him?… Thus liberty, getting
out of all order and reason, passes into the harshest and bitterest form

<br />
Further Background:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Tax-exempt Foundations were originally setup for humanitarian
purposes to provide grants to existing institutions. Rene A. Wormser
served as General Counsel to the Reece Committee, which was a
congressional committee that investigated the Tax-exempt Foundations
from 1953 to 1955. His book, <span class="italics">Foundations: Their Power and Influence</span>,
is a documented expose of his experience with the committee. In it he
wrote, "Foundations were originally created to support existing
institutions and to undertake certain 'operating' functions." </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Soon after (or possibly from their inception) foundations became a
loop hole that the financial elite used to avoid taxes. "By the time
the income tax became law in 1913, the Rockefeller and Carnegie
foundations were already operating. Income tax didn't soak the rich, it
soaked the middle class," wrote Perloff. "Because it was a graduated
tax, it tended to prevent anyone from rising into affluence. Thus it
acted to consolidate the wealth of the entrenched interests, and protect
them from new competition." </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Smoot pointed out that the primary purpose of some of the large
Tax-exempt Foundations is no longer humanitarian in nature, but
"predominately tax avoidance." "One of the leading devices by which the
wealthy dodge taxes" concurred Perloff "is the channeling of their
fortunes into tax-free foundations." He also charged that, "The major
foundations, though commonly regarded as charitable institutions, often
use their grant-making powers to advance the interests of their
founders." </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The "independent, uncontrolled financial power often enables
foundations to exert a decisive influence on public affairs," wrote
Wormser. He further testified that, "They have a power comparable to
political patronage." He cautioned "When they do harm, it can be
immense harm--there is virtually no counterforce to oppose them." <a href="http://www.thehiddenevil.com/foundations.asp">Source</a></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
In the international field, foundations, and an interlock among
some of them and certain intermediary organizations, have exercised a
strong effect upon our foreign policy and upon public education in
things international. This has been accomplished by vast propaganda, by
supplying executives and advisors to government, and by controlling much
research in this area through the power of the purse. The net result of
these combined efforts has been to promote 'internationalism' in a
particular sense - a form directed toward 'world government' and a
derogation of American 'nationalism.' </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
They observed that the major foundations 'have actively supported
attacks upon our social and government system and financed the promotion
of socialism and collectivist ideas.' The Reece Committee clearly
declared that the CFR was 'in essence an agency of the United States
Government' and that its 'productions are not objective but are directed
overwhelmingly at promoting a globalist concept.' <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Tax-exempt_foundations">Source</a> </blockquote>

On August 19, 1954,
<a href="http://modernhistoryproject.org/mhp?Entity=ReeceBC" title="MHP Database">Reece</a> summed up his investigation:
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
"It has been said that the foundations are a power second only to that

The
Institute was founded in 1979 by conservative activist Morton C.
Blackwell. Its mission is to "increase the number and effectiveness of
conservative activists" and to "identify, train, recruit and place
conservatives in politics, government, and media."<br />
<br />
The Leadership
Institute offers 40 types of training seminars at its Arlington
headquarters, around the United States, and occasionally in foreign
countries. In 2009, the Institute trained more than 9,500 students.
Since its 1979 founding, the Leadership Institute has trained more than
91,475 students. Notable alumni include Grover Norquist, Karl Rove,
Senator Mitch McConnell, Congressman Mike Pence, and seven new members
of the 112th Congress.<br />
<br />
While the Institute does not provide
instruction in philosophical conservatism, it does encourage its
graduates to read classic conservative authors like Edmund Burke and
"classical liberal" authors like Frederic Bastiat, as well as more
modern conservative thinkers including William F. Buckley Jr., Milton
Friedman, Russell Kirk, Barry Goldwater, and libertarian thinkers such
as F. A. Hayek.<br />
<br />
The Leadership Institute teaches 41 different
types of classes and seminars using its own curriculum. Class content
varies from teaching how to create a campus newsletter to political
activism (i.e. grassroots activism) to professional training and
development (i.e. broadcast journalism).<br />
<br />
The Institute has
developed an interest in training students internationally, and has been
active in the creation of similar Institutes in Greece, Chile, Poland,
France, the U.K., Korea, Canada, and Japan. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leadership_Institute">Source</a></div>

We
know that at least two of the young men charged in connection with
attempts to tamper with Sen. Mary Landrieu’s office phones led
conservative college newspapers that received seed money from The
Leadership Institute. But what’s the Leadership Institute?<br />
<br />
Leadership
Institute Vice President David Fenner said in a phone interview this
morning that the group had “informal, above-board relationships” with
both James O’Keefe and Joseph Basel when they were college students.<br />

O’Keefe
founded The Centurion at Rutgers and Basel launched The Counterweight
at the University of Minnesota-Morris — each of which received $500
“Balance in Media” grants from the Leadership Institute. Both were
charged yesterday with trying to tamper with Landrieu’s phones.<br />
<br />
In
tax forms posted on its website, the Leadership Institute reported
receiving nearly $6 million in contributions in 2008, compared to $9.6
million in 2007. The group reported spending $11.2 million in 2008 and
$11.4 million the year before — leading to a net loss both years.<br />
<br />
The group claimed its net assets and fund balances totaled $11.6 million at the end of 2008.<br />
<br />
In
2008, the Leadership Institute reported spending more than $3 million
conducting “344 training schools of 39 different types to train youth
leaders and provide education regarding the public policy process.”<br />
<br />
Additionally,
the group reported $4.6 million in spending on its “campus leadership
program” — the same program that O’Keefe and Basel benefited from. The
Leadership Institute uses this program to conduct “leadership schools
for these groups and helps students start newspapers on their campuses.” <a href="http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.com/2010/01/the_leadership_institute_the_group_that_helped_lau.php">Source</a></div>

This
public policy group is the creation of Grover Norquist, an anti-tax
conservative activist with a record of ties to Muslim Brotherhood
leaders and Islamist front groups.90 It was founded in early 2008 and,
until recently, housed in Norquist’s Americans for Tax Reform offices.
91 ACDA Board Members include Samah Norquist, secretary (also Grover
Norquist’s wife); Peter Gemma, treasurer; and Philip Giraldi, the
Francis Walsingham Fellow.<br />
<br />
Norquist’s role in Islamist influence
operations is an ominous one. He founded a front organization called the
Islamic Free Market Institute in 1998 together with a Muslim activitist
long associated with Muslim Brotherhood operatives named Khaled Saffuri
“to promote a better understanding of Islam in America.”<br />
<br />
During
the presidential campaign of 2000, Norquist arranged a meeting between
Alamoudi and then- Republican presidential candidate, Texas Governor
George W. Bush.96 Later, after the terrorist attacks of September 11,
2001, President Bush appeared at a prayer service with Alamoudi and
apparently remained unaware of his terrorist links for a number of years
after that.97<br />
<br />
Another troubling connection is Grover Norquist’s
close relationship with Faisal Gill, Policy Director of the Information
Analysis and Infrastructure Protection division for the Department of
Homeland Security under President Bush. In 2004, it was discovered that
Gill, who was a political appointee, had failed to disclose his own
formerly close working relationship with Alamoudi, whom he apparently
served as spokesman for the American Muslim Council. Nevertheless, Gill
was permitted to retain his government position.98<br />
<br />
Although the
American Conservative Defense Alliance claims to advocate for a strong
U.S. national defense policy, it eschews any initiative that would
entail “imposing American-styled ‘democracy’ abroad” or engaging in
“nation-building.”99 ACDA’s place within the Iran Lobby network can be
discerned from a look at key figures among its leadership boards,
website links to other Iran Lobby entities and posted statements by its
associates that scoff at evidence of the Tehran regime’s pursuit of
nuclear weapons and involvement in supporting terrorist militias in Iraq<br />
<br />

Fertig, who was a member of the NYU board of trustees,
was instrumental in supporting his friend Ludwig von Mises when the
economist fled Europe to the United States during the rise of the Third
Reich, even going so far as to pay part of Mises' salary himself
when Mises began teaching at Fertig's alma mater. Referring to Mises'
visiting professorship at NYU, economist Murray Rothbard stated that<br />
<br />

Brookings
Institution is a tax-exempt think tank created in 1916 as the Institute
for Government Research by a group of business leaders and academics
led by St. Louis timber and mining executive Robert Brookings, who later
served on the War Industries Board. The IGR was founded to provide
research and expertise to help restructure government agencies in accord
with modern business methods, in order to promote administrative
competence and government efficiency. During the Depression Brookings
took on government and corporate research contracts. Renamed in 1927,
the Brookings Institution established itself as a conservative think
tank supported by industry and critical of the New Deal social programs,
which were seen as replacing free enterprise with central authority.<br />
<br />
After
the second world war, Brookings supported the Marshall Plan and an
active U.S. presence in the world, and by the 1960s had a reputation as a
liberal think tank, but Brookings income flowed from Rockefeller and
Ford Foundation grants and corporate contributions. By the mid-1980s, in
keeping with the Democratic Party and other "liberal" institutions,
Brookings positioned itself back in the "center" of the political
spectrum again. In the 1980s Brookings studies called for government
budget cutbacks, corporate competitiveness, and national security. In
the 1990s Brookings studies promoted market-based incentives to replace
regulation, increases in military spending, and "free" trade. In 1995,
Michael Armacost, a U.S. State Department official under Reagan, became
the president of Brookings.<br />

Brookings board of trustees includes

Among
the better known figures based at the institute are several former
George W. Bush administration officials and advisors who were key
promoters of the “war on terror” policies put in place after the 9/11
terrorist attacks, including John Bolton, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle,
John Yoo, and David Frum. President Bush highlighted the enormous
influence the institute had in his administration during a January 2003
speech at an AEI dinner celebrating neoconservative forefather Irving
Kristol. After commending AEI for having "some of the finest minds in
our nation," the president said, "You do such good work that my
administration has borrowed 20 such minds."<br />
<br />
Founded in 1943, AEI
is one of the oldest policy institutes in Washington. AEI traces its
origins to a New York City-based business association called the
American Enterprise Association (AEA), which was founded in 1938 and
soon after World War II opened a Washington office to lobby against
government intervention in the domestic economy. AEA, which brought
together some of the country's largest corporate firms, substituted
"institute" for "association" and became one of the nation's first
policy think tanks. Lewis Brown, president of Johns-Manville Corp., was
the principal figure behind AEA, which from its beginning had a strong
pro-business posture. Like the AEA, AEI is dedicated to the "maintenance
of the system of free, competitive enterprise."18<br />
<br />
One of the
institute's earliest supporters on Capitol Hill was Gerald Ford, who as a
congressional representative praised the institute in 1950, beginning
what AEI describes as a "long and happy relationship with the
president-to-be." A key figure in AEI's early history was William
Baroody, who joined AEI as president in 1954 and was responsible for
bringing some of the country's most conservative economists into the
institute, including Milton Friedman and Paul McCracken.<br />
<br />
With the
emergence of several new conservative think tanks, including the
Heritage Foundation and Cato Institute, AEI's influence appeared to
diminish. Despite this, President Ronald Reagan in 1988 acknowledged the
institute's pervasive influence in spearheading the "Reagan
Revolution." According to Reagan, "The American Enterprise Institute
stands at the center of a revolution in ideas of which I, too, have been
a part. AEI's remarkably distinguished body of work is testimony to the
triumph of the think tank. For today the most important American
scholarship comes out of our think tanks—and none has been more
influential than the American Enterprise Institute."<br />
<br />
AEI
headquarters are located in a building on Washington's 17th Street that
is a warren of right-wing operations. Before it shuttered most of its
operations in 2006, the Project for the New American Century had its
offices there. Several PNAC principals, including Gerecht, Bruce
Jackson, Gary Schmitt, and Tom Donnelly, moved from PNAC to AEI. Also
located in the same building are the offices of the Weekly Standard,
which often serves as a favored outlet for AEI scholars. The
Philanthropy Roundtable, the rightist association of foundations that
split off from the Council of Foundations in the early 1980s, also found
a home in the AEI building.<br />
<br />
The membership of AEI's board of
trustees reveals the institute's strong ties to the corporate community.
Members include Bruce Kovner (Caxton Associates), John Faraci
(International Paper), Raymond Gilmartin (formerly of Merck), Harvey
Golub (formerly of American Express), Roger Hertog (formerly of Alliance
Capital Management), Mel Sembler (Sembler Company), William
Stavropoulos (Dow Chemical), and Wilson Taylor (CIGNA), among many
others.33 Over the past several decades, AEI's board of trustees has
included representatives of scores of the nation's top corporations,
including Rockwell, Amoco, Hewlett Packard, Exxon Mobil, Texas
Instruments, Eli Lilly, and Citicorp. Former board members include Dick
Cheney (whose wife Lynne is an AEI fellow), then at Halliburton, and
Kenneth Lay of Enron.<br />
<br />
Among the many corporate contributors to
AEI is the Walton Family Foundation, which was founded by the same
family that started Wal-Mart. According to the New York Times, Wal-Mart
"has discovered a reliable ally: prominent conservative research groups
like the American Enterprise Institute, the Heritage Foundation, and the
Manhattan Institute.”<br />
<br />
Major donors include the heavy hitters of
the conservative foundation world: the Smith Richardson Foundation, the
Olin Foundation, the Scaife Foundation, and the Lynde and Harry Bradley
Foundation, as well as smaller right-wing foundations such as Carthage,
Earhart, and Castle Rock.<br />

Founded
in 1947 in Mont Pelerin, Switzerland by Frederich von Hayek. The stated
objective of the Mont Pelerin Society is to strengthen the principles
and practices of the free society by encouraging market-oriented
economic systems with minimal and dispersed government as opposed to
government regulation of industry. <br />
<br />
In 1947, 39 scholars, mostly
economists, with some historians and philosophers, were invited by
Professor Friedrich Hayek to meet at Mont Pelerin, Switzerland, and
discuss the state, and possible fate of classical liberalism and to
combat the "state ascendancy and Marxist or Keynesian planning [that
was]sweeping the globe". Invitees included Henry Simons (who would later
train Milton Friedman, a future president of the society, at the
University of Chicago); the American former-Fabian socialist Walter
Lippmann; Viennese Aristotelian Society leader Karl Popper; fellow
Austrian School economist Ludwig von Mises; Sir John Clapham, a senior
official of the Bank of England who from 1940-6 was the president of the
British Royal Society; Otto von Habsburg, the heir to the
Austro-Hungarian throne; and Max von Thurn und Taxis, Bavaria-based head
of the 400-year-old Venetian Thurn und Taxis family.<br />

Over a dozen of the scholars who could not previously get a
job, a review, or a book deal would go on to win the "Nobel Prize in
Economics" (this "epic" story will be told separately). More
importantly, the Mont Pelerin Society would itself beget 500 foundations
and organizations in nearly 80 countries... again with strategic
contributions from Mr. Anonymous.<br />
<br />
Initiated at Mont Pelerin and
copying the FEE, the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) was created in
London in 1955. Serving as a conduit for both cash and "ideas", the IEA
set about the task of "rejuvenating" the dead and decaying British
Tories. By 1985, the "Iron Lady", Margaret Thatcher, would positively
gush on the occasion of the Institute's 30th Anniversary: "You created
the atmosphere which made our victory possible... May I say how thankful
we are to those who joined your great endeavor. They were the few, but
they were right, and they saved Britain." With that, the IEA begat the
Atlas Economic Research Foundation, which in turn created a network of
over 50 "think-tanks" in more than 30 countries.<br />
<br />
And what were
the scale of these efforts? John Blundell, the head of the IEA, in a
speech to the Heritage Foundation, and Atlas in 1990, would identify a
rare failure in the Society's efforts. Shaking his head at the abortive
attempt to subsidize academic "Chairs of Free Enterprise" in dozens of
countries throughout the world, Blundell complained about wasting,
"hundreds of millions, perhaps one billion dollars". This was just one
initiative among many.<br />

The
William Volker Fund was a charitable foundation established in 1932 by
Kansas City, Missouri, businessman and home-furnishings mogul William
Volker.<br />
<br />
In 1932, Volker set aside half of his fortune into the
William Volker Charities Fund. The fund’s articles of incorporation
claimed it would “care for the sick, aged and helpless”; “provide means
and facilities for the physical, mental, moral and spiritual betterment
of persons”; “improve living and working conditions”; and provide
“education and educational facilities” (209-210). </div>

When William
Volker died in 1947, his nephew Harold W. Luhnow took control of
William Volker & Co. and also became the head of the William Volker
Charities Fund’s board of directors. Under the Luhnow’s
administration the fund shifted its focus away from charities in the
Kansas City area and began pursuing a number of strategies for
increasing the acceptance of Old Right and Austrian economics thought in
the United States. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Volker_Fund">Source</a></div>

When
William Volker died in 1947, his will added $15 million of his assets
to the already sizable William Volker Charities Fund. Luhnow took
primary control of the trust. He also took control the William Volker
& Co. In 1952, Luhnow moved the headquarters of the fund and the
company to Burlingame, California.<br />
<br />
Luhnow used Volker Fund
assets to support bringing schools associated wit the Austrian School of
economics to U.S. institutions. He "paid [Ludwig von] Mises's salary at
New York University; he paid F. A. Hayek's salary at the University of
Chicago; he funded lectures that Milton and Rose Friedman turned into
Capitalism and Freedom and he approved the grant that enabled Murray
Rothbard to write Man, Economy and State. As early as 1946, Luhnow
earmarked Volker Fund money to support Leonard Read and agreed to fund
the establishment the Foundation for Economic Education, which became
the first major post-war libertarian think-tank. By the late 1950s,
Luhnow had led the Fund to provide critical support for a host of
political groups, including the Intercollegiate Studies Institute and
the Institute for Humane Studies. In the 1960s Luhnow's leadership of
the Fund became more and more erratic until he eventually fired most of
its staff and much of the Volker Fund's remaining assets were given to
the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Luhnow">Source</a></div>
</blockquote>
<blockquote class="uncited">
<div>
The
William Volker Fund also launched a number of Libertarian think tanks,
foremost among them the “Hoover Institution for War, Revolution and
Peace.”<br />
<br />
“In addition to its own activities, the Volker Fund
helped fund the formation of various complementary institutions,
including the Intercollegiate Society of Individualists (ISI), which was
later renamed Intercollegiate Studies Institute; the Foundation for
Economic Education (FEE); the Earhart Foundation; and the Relm
Foundation. According to observers such as John Blundell of the Mont
Pelerin Society, the William Volker Fund’s strategic successor on its
expiration was the F.A. Harper’s Institute for Humane Studies. In 1963,
most the Volker Fund’s activities were transferred to a new Center for
American Studies (CAS), which proved short-lived and closed late in
1964. A decade later, the Volker Fund’s remaining money, amounting to
about seven million dollars, went to the Hoover Institution. The Fund’s
files have disappeared.” (William Volker Fund)<br />
<br />
The official story
is that Hoover Institution was founded by Herbert Hoover with $50K,
although $7 million in funding would later arrive from the Volker Fund.
What is also usually not mentioned is that (1) the Hoover Institution
was heavily involved with the Eugenics societies of that day and (2)
Herbert Hoover’s implementation of free market, laissez faire ‘do
nothing’ economics prolonged the misery of the Great Depression.<br />
<br />
“In
1919 the Hoover Institution was founded at Stanford University, Palo
Alto, California with a donation of $50,000 from Herbert Hoover… Herbert
Hoover founded the Hoover Institution at the suggestion of three men,
Andrew Dickson White, (S&B 1853), Daniel Coit Gilman, (S&B 1852)
and Ray Lyman Wilbur, president of Stanford… In 1921 the Second
International Congress of Eugenics is held in New York City. The
sponsoring committee includes Herbert Hoover and the presidents of Clark
University, Smith College and the Carnegie Institute of Washington
(Rockefeller)… Among the notables in attendance were future President
Herbert Hoover, Alexander Graham Bell, (the Congress’s honorary
president), conservationist and future Governor of Pennsylvania, Gifford
Pinchot, (S&B 1889) and Leonard Darwin, son of Charles Darwin.”

And while I'm on the Ron Paul soapbox from the last post (can you tell I am a former Ron
Paul brain washed zealot and campaign donor?)....he rants about abolishing the
Federal Reserve (front organization for private banks) but then
recommends just turning the money creation power directly over to the private banks (competing
currencies - i.e. no adherence to Constitutional mandate for Congress
to do the job they are supposed to be doing despite all of his followers
claiming how Constitutional he is). Instead we
get digital gold via Lewis Lehrman (CFR, PNAC, etc) and Rand Paul.<br />
<br />
<span class="posthilit">Ron</span> is talking about competing
currencies...issued by the inner banking circle controlled market of course....in
other words setting the stage for the new world order to establish a
global currency based on gold as advocated by his buddy Lewis Lehrman of
CFR and PNAC. So we have a shell game where they drop the Federal
Reserve Notes and go with a global note "backed by gold" (digital
gold?)...at least until they say otherwise (think Nixon)....where's the
change? Who gets screwed?<br />
<br />
Read "The Case for Gold" by <span class="posthilit">Ron</span> <span class="posthilit">Paul</span> and Lewis Lehrman which is their viewpoint after participating in Ronald Reagan's Gold Commission which <span class="posthilit">Ron</span> <span class="posthilit">Paul</span> spearheaded.<br />
<br />
Is
our debt reduced? The money creation problem resolved? No....instead
he proposes that we sell off our gold and lands to satisfy the debt
(which was created for the cost of printing). Constitutional...nope.<br />
<br />
<span class="posthilit">Ron</span>
is talking about getting out of foreign entanglements and bringing the
military home. This sounds really good and I hate how the US military
has become this globalist tool. That said, much of the damage has been
done and at this point it would just pave the way for China/Russia whom
the globalists have been building up for multiple decades.<br />
<br />
Also...what
are those troops going to do when they get home? Any jobs out there?
Why? Wouldn't be lack of money would it (which creates lack of demand
and lack of jobs)? Is <span class="posthilit">Ron</span> <span class="posthilit">Paul</span>
planning to fix that? Nope! Instead he's actually going to make it
worse by opening the door to a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dH3_Lcfeac">single global currency</a> based on
commodities which "we the people" don't control. <br />
<br />
So is bringing
the troops home a good thing....again No. It will actually be
destructive to the nation from multiple angles. First it provides a
vacuum for China/Russia to fill. Second, all these guys come home only
to find disillusion as they cannot gain employment (job losses
accelerate as we find ourselves in a global race to the bottom for the
lowest common denominator - i.e. the cheapest grunt labor)....and their
respective skill sets are no longer desired....which leads to
destruction/chaos at home.<br />
<br />
Does Ron Paul really care about the troops and the challenges they face? How did the vote on gays in the military go?<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Numerous researchers have found out that the creation of a cohesive unit... is significantly influenced by broad cultural values, norms, and characteristics that are the result of a common socialization process and basic agreement among unit members about cultural values.<br />
<br />
A significant characteristic about a cohesive unit is the consistent observation and evaluation of the behavior of unit members. Any deviation from unit norms, values, or expected behavior brings immediate and intense group pressures to conform to group norms. If the behavior is not corrected, then cleavage results in the group and cohesion is weakened. If the situation occurs in combat, where survival is threatened, then the group can be expected to expel or somehow separate or isolate the nonconforming individual. </blockquote>

Seventy eight percent of soldiers oppose allowing homosexuals into the military. Ninety percent feel very strongly about the privacy issue. They are strongly against it on the grounds of privacy. Seventy four percent of male soldiers believe homosexuality is abnormal.<br />
Seventy five percent believe gays serving openly in the Army would be very disruptive to discipline. Eighty one percent think there would be violence against homosexuals if it did happen. This indicates to me that if you did that you would have the severe disruption within these primary groups that we have been talking about that are so violative to cohesion...you have got to have a subordination of the individual values to the group so that they can be resocialized into those group values. </blockquote>

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica;">Many people who serve in
the military today share a viewpoint that allowing homosexuals to serve
in the military goes against their religious beliefs or moral convictions.
<b>Many of our young soldiers entering the military today are from families
who hold very strong moral traditions, beliefs and convictions, and strong
religious beliefs.</b> <b>Many military people have stated that a change in this
policy will, over time, significantly affect our ability to retain many
of the people whom we look to today for leadership in the military and
will affect seriously our ability to recruit the needed people for the
decade ahead to continue to supply the quality of people that we need in
our military.</b> Because, on the basis of their own personal religious convictions
or their moral convictions, they see this change as creating an atmosphere
in which they do not want their sons or daughters to serve, or which they
themselves do not feel comfortable serving in.</span> </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica;">Second, we fear that the
change in policy will significantly reduce our ability to field an effective
military force. <b>Perhaps the most essential ingredient in an effective military
force, as our military leaders tell us and as sergeants and captains and
colonels and generals throughout the ages have said, is an intangible aspect
that some define as morale, some define as esprit de corps, unit cohesiveness,
discipline.</b> General Powell has spoken to this. General Powell has indicated
that change in this policy will undermine good order and discipline.</span> </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica;"><b>General Schwarzkopf said
it will destroy the military</b>. These are strong words. They need to be heeded.
They need to be listened to. That intangible quality say, our field commanders,
our sergeants, our platoon leaders, our battalion leaders--that quality
is something that is fashioned in an extraordinary way through intense
discipline, training, and it is derived on the basis of a unit cohesiveness
that is critical to our effectiveness. It is important that we listen to
our military leaders when they tell us that this change in policy will
affect that is a very dramatic way.</span> </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica;">Now, why? Why? Why does allowing
homosexuals in the military affect that ability to field an efficient,
effective military? Have not homosexuals served in the military, served
as good patriots, served with courage, made positive contributions? Absolutely,
they have. But there is an essential element here present that is difficult
to talk about, no one really wants to talk about, but it must be talked
about for us to understand what is at stake. It is a three-letter word
called sex.</span> </blockquote>

off that we need to get rid of the "privatized" (Federal Reserve and

kills a large chunk of government spending (although privatizing
portions of it - who gets those contracts?)...basically taking the
military from foreign lands (leaving a gigantic vacuum for the
Russians/Chinese to fill) as well as large portions of the federal
government...while completely reducing costs to corporate interests and
selling off government assets. So the corporations receive massive
benefits (reduced or near zero taxes). The Russians/Chinese benefit. The

his strategies and policies are designed to destroy the last remaining

they can move money where ever they want w/o repatriating taxes)....is
that the free market you envisioned???<br />
<br />
Is <span class="posthilit">Ron</span> <span class="posthilit">Paul</span> advocating putting the power back in Congress.....or more privatization and power to the corporations???<br />
<br />
Again go back and look at <span class="posthilit">Ron</span> <span class="posthilit">Paul</span>'s actual policies or intended policies and compare them with "free market"....is it really "free" or do you end up in <span class="posthilit">California</span>'s

1600% over the course of a year or two??? All because they now were

in the last 14 years, has founded 12 different finance institutions.
Since 1979, Mercy Corps has provided more than US$1.95 billion in
assistance to people in 107 nations. Supported by headquarters offices
in North America and Europe, the agency's unified global programs employ
3,700 staff worldwide and reach nearly 16.7 million people in more than
40 countries.<br />

<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Murray Rothbard</span></span>
- Ron Paul's self declared mentor. During the early 1950s, he studied
under the Austrian economist Ludwig von Mises at his seminars at New
York University and was greatly influenced by Mises' book Human Action.
Rothbard attracted the attention of the William Volker Fund, the main
group that supported classical liberal scholars in the 1950s and early
1960s. <br />
<br />
Rothbard began his consulting work for the Volker Fund in
1951. This relationship lasted until 1962, when the VF was dissolved. A
major part of Rothbard's work for the VF consisted of reading and
evaluating books, journal articles, and other materials. On the basis of
written reports by Rothbard and another reader - Rose Wilder Lane - the
VF's directors would decide whether to undertake massive distribution
of particular works to public libraries. During the late 1950s,
Rothbard was also an associate of Ayn Rand and her philosophy,
Objectivism, along with several other students of Ludwig von Mises, such
as George Reisman. <br />
<br />
During the 1970s and 1980s, Rothbard was
active in the Libertarian Party. He was frequently involved in the
party's internal politics. He was one of the founders of the Cato
Institute, and "came up with the idea of naming this libertarian think
tank after Cato’s Letters, a powerful series of British newspaper essays
by John Trenchard and Thomas Gordon which played a decisive influence
upon America's Founding Fathers in fomenting the Revolution.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Lew Rockwell Jr</span></span>
- Ron Paul's congressional chief of staff from 1978 to 1982, was a vice
president of Ron Paul & Associates, the corporation that published
the Ron Paul Political Report and the Ron Paul Survival Report. Founder
of LewRockwell.com. Rockwell remains a friend and advisor to
Paul—accompanying him to major media appearances; promoting his
candidacy on the LewRockwell.com blog; publishing his books; and
peddling an array of the avuncular Texas congressman's recent writings
and audio recordings. A proponent of the Austrian School of economics,
and chairman of the Ludwig von Mises Institute. In the mid-1970s
Rockwell went to work at Hillsdale College. In his time at Hillsdale
College, Rockwell started the Hillsdale College Press, founded the
school's monthly publication, Imprimis, and worked in fundraising and
public relations. He met Murray Rothbard at Hillsdale College.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Milton Friendman</span></span>
- an American economist, statistician, and author who taught at the
University of Chicago for more than three decades. Friedman was an
economic advisor to conservative President Ronald Reagan. Friedman
spent 1941–43 working on wartime tax policy for the Federal Government,
as an advisor to senior officials of the United States Department of the
Treasury. As a Treasury spokesman during 1942 he advocated a Keynesian
policy of taxation, and during this time he helped to invent the payroll
withholding tax system. During 1946, Friedman accepted an offer to
teach economic theory at the University of Chicago (a position opened by
departure of his former professor Jacob Viner to Princeton University).
Friedman would work for the University of Chicago for the next 30
years. There he helped build an intellectual community that produced a
number of Nobel Prize winners, known collectively as the Chicago School
of Economics. Aaron Director was a famous professor at the University
of Chicago Law School who played a central role in the development of
the Chicago school of economics with his brother-in-law, Milton
Friedman, the leader of the “Chicago School.” From 1977 on, he was
affiliated with the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. He was
also a member of the Heritage Foundation as well as the Mont Pelerin
Society.<br />
<br />
He also played a founding role in the American Enterprise Institute.<br />

Washington College.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Grover Glenn Norquist</span></span>
- American lobbyist, conservative activist, and founder and president
of Americans for Tax Reform. He is a member of the Council on Foreign
Relations. Referring to Norquist's activities as head of ATR, Steve
Kroft, in a 60 Minutes episode that aired on November 20, 2011, claimed
that "Norquist has been responsible, more than anyone else, for
rewriting the dogma of the Republican Party."<br />
<br />
As a nonprofit
organization, Americans for Tax Reform is not required to disclose the
identity of its contributors. Critics such as Sen. Alan Simpson, have
asked Norquist to disclose his contributors; he has declined but has
said that ATR is financed by direct mail and other grassroots
fundraising efforts. According to CBS News, "a significant portion
appears to come from wealthy individuals, foundations and corporate
interests."<br />
<br />
While in college, Norquist was an editor at the Harvard Crimson and helped to publish the libertarian-leaning Harvard Chronicle.<br />
<br />
Norquist
traveled to several war zones to help support anti-Soviet guerrilla
armies in the second half of the 1980s. He worked with a support network
for Oliver North's efforts with the Nicaraguan Contras and other
insurgencies, in addition to promoting U.S. support for groups including
Mozambique's RENAMO and Jonas Savimbi's UNITA in Angola and helping to
organize anti-Soviet forces in Laos.<br />
<br />
In 2004, Norquist helped
California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger with his plan to privatize the
CalPERS system. In 2010, Norquist joined the advisory board of GOProud,
a political organization representing conservative gays, lesbians,
transgendered people, and their allies, for which he was criticized by
the Family Research Council. He has served as a monthly "Politics"
columnist and contributing editor to The American Spectator.<br />
<br />
Along
with Campaign for Liberty coordinator Michael D. Ostrolenk (who serves
as President and is a Board Member), Norquist founded the American
Conservative Defense Alliance. He also founded a front organization
called the Islamic Free Market Institute in 1998 together with a Muslim
activitist long associated with Muslim Brotherhood operatives named
Khaled Saffuri “to promote a better understanding of Islam in America.”<br />

Here's a nice little tool and a nice little tool for getting additional names and organizations
(foundations, trusts, institutes - all tax free of course) with Lewis
Lehrman as example <a href="http://www.muckety.com/Lewis-E-Lehrman/1902.muckety">here</a>.<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The World Order controls the citizens of the United States through the
tax exempt foundations. These foundations create and implement
government policy through their staff members in key positions in the
executive, legislative and judiciary departments. The foundations
create educational policy through their staff members in key positions
at every level of the educational system. The foundations control
religious doctrine through their staff members in key positions in the
leading religious denominations.<br />
<br />
“Foundation” is a misleading
term; Webster calls it an endowment, but a foundation is really a trust,
which Roget states is a “syndicate”. If, instead of <span class="posthilit">Rockefeller</span> Foundation, we were to say <span class="posthilit">Rockefeller</span>
Syndicate, we would be much closer to the truth. Alpheus T. Mason, in
his biography of justice Brandeis, quotes Brandeis as pointing out that
“Socialism has been developed largely by the power of individual
trusts.” What we have then, are criminal syndicates masquerading as
philanthropic enterprises while they inflict Socialist world slavery on
nations and peoples for the benefit of the World Order.<br />
<br />
Norman
Dodd, director of research for the Reece Committee in its attempt to
investigate tax exempt foundations, was asked by Congressman B. Carroll
Reece in January, 1954, “Do you accept the premise that the United
States is the victim of a conspiracy ?” “Yes,” said Dodd. “Then,” said
Congressman Reece, “you must conduct the investigation on that basis.”
B.E. Hutchinson, chairman of Chrysler Corp., although approving the
goals of the investigation, warned Dodd, “If you proceed as you have
outlined, you will be killed.”<br />
<br />
The New York Times noted April 29,
1984 that 1400 officials were attending the annual meeting of the
Council on Foundations. There were 21,697 foundations in the U.S.,
which in 1983 distributed $3.4 billion in grants. These grants are
dispensed only to those who implement the program of the World Order,
and whose goal is world slavery.<br />
<br />
The international banking
families, whose origins go back to the Middle Ages, set up the principal
American foundations to protect the wealth they had amassed in their
dealings in slaves, drugs and gold, and to perpetuate that wealth
through means which can only be described as “imperial decrees”,
government charters, in order to neutralize all potential rivals or
opposition by controlling them and directing or misdirecting their
opposition.<br />
<br />
None of the charters of the foundations indicate
their real purpose. They are replete with such phrases as “the
well-being of mankind” “the elimination of poverty”, the “elimination of
disease, “the promotion of world brotherhood”. Compassion, caring,
charity, these are the watchwords of the foundations. There is no hint
to the unwary of the despotic instincts which drive these “caring”
people to promote world wars and world slavery, nor is there any warning
to the menials of the foundations that if they falter at any time in
their dedication to the goals of the World Order, the penalty is sudden
death. <a href="http://iamthewitness.com/books/Eustace.Mullins/The%20World%20Order.pdf">Source</a></blockquote>

Imagine a world where everything is owned: the land, the water, and the air.<br />
<br />
Ownership
is the right of influence. When you own something you can do what you
will with it. Nobody can tell you otherwise. If you save all your money
and buy a Porsche, you can drive it off a cliff for all we care. It is
yours, and being yours, it escapes our influence.<br />
<br />
In a
corporation, decisions are made through ownership percentage of the
company. If you and I, together, own 51% of our company, we can
institute any corporate policy or bylaws we want. But I ask you, how
many of us own 51% of Exxon, or Merrill Lynch, or Monsanto? How many of
us have ever sat in on a board meeting for Disney, or Microsoft, or
K-Mart? Chances are, you have not, and as long as you don’t own enough
of the company, you will never be invited. You will never have
influence. That takes ownership.<br />
<br />
Imagine a world where everything
is owned: not by you, but by one of these companies. Imagine that the
presiding authority over the water you drink, or the air you breathe is
owned by somebody else, and its use had to be commercially negotiated:
that you drink because you have permission to drink, or breathe air
because you have permission to breathe it.<br />
<br />
What else is a license
than merely formal arrangements of permission? When you buy a $0.99
song on iTunes, its not merely the bandwidth you are paying for, or even
the royalty to the artist. You are purchasing a license — you are
purchasing permission from the owner of the music, the record company,
to play and store the music on your computer and iPod.<br />
<br />
Imagine a
world where the central systems of society were privatized in this
fashion: they are owned, not by you, and provided through private
permission.<br />
<br />
What else is Despotism than a society where
everything that is done, is done with permission of the elite? What else
is Despotism than the privatization of society? <a href="http://mylibertynow.wordpress.com/the-peril-of-privatization/">Source</a></blockquote>

<br />
...here's another little look at incestuous cross pollination of libertarian/conservative ideas via the Republican favorite Ronald Reagan -<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i><b>I don’t believe in a government that protects us
from ourselves.</b></i><br />
<br />
<b>REAGAN:</b> If you analyze it <b>I believe the very
heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism</b>. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<b>REAGAN:</b> Well, the first and most important
thing is that government exists to protect us from each other.
Government exists, of course, for the defense of the nation, and
for the defense of the rights of the individual. Maybe we don’t all
agree on some of the other accepted functions of government, such
as fire departments and police departments–again the protection of
the people. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<b>REASON:</b> Are you suggesting that fire
departments would be a necessary and proper function of
government? </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<b>REAGAN:</b> Yes. I know that there was a time back
in history in which fire departments were private and you insured
your house and then had an emblem on the front of your house which
identified which company was responsible for protecting it against
fire. I believe today, because of the manner in which we live,
that, you can make a pretty good case for our public fire
departments–because there are very few ways that you can handle
fire in one particular structure today without it representing a
threat to others. <a href="http://reason.com/archives/1975/07/01/inside-ronald-reagan/singlepage">Source </a></blockquote>
Of course that all sounds really good....until you look at Reagan's actual application of ideas....for example the approval of Searle's (CEO Donald Rumsfeld) aspartame (also known as nutrasweet or aminosweet)...that has been the source of over 80% of the complaints to the FDA (out of the thousands of food additives) and has and continues to poison the vast majority of the American population (rest in hell Reagan, Rumsfeld, and associates).

setting the stage for a much warmer than average summer, and an
increased chance of damaging drought conditions. The early loss of

<span class="small" id="entrytextsize">Large portions of the Midwest
U.S. shivered through a hard freeze (temperatures below 28°F ) this
morning, and freezing temperatures extended as far south as Tennessee
and North Carolina. Though the cold temperatures were not unusual for
this time of year, they likely caused widespread damage to flowering
plants fooled into blooming by last month's unprecedented "Summer in
March" heat wave. Growers of apples, pears, peaches, nectarines, plums,
and cherries worked during the night and early morning to minimize the
damage by running large fans and propane heaters in their orchards, and
some even rented helicopters in an attempts to keep temperatures a few
degrees warmer. While freezing temperatures for an extended period will
not kill the trees, they will destroy the flowers and fragile buds that
are needed to produce fruit later in the year. Temperatures of
approximately 28°F will kill about 10% of fruit tree buds and flowers,
while temperatures of 25°F will produce a 90% kill rate. Temperatures of
25° were common over Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota this morning,
and I expect that this morning's freeze was severe and widespread enough
to cause tens of millions of dollars in damage to the fruit industry.
There have been numerous freezes and frosts over the Midwest's fruit
growing regions since late March, and orchards are definitely taking a
major beating from the weather. It will be several weeks before the
extent of the damage is known, but I think that so far it is unlikely
that the industry has suffered a billion-dollar disaster, such as

<br />
All this debt accumulation is going to have a wicked conclusion. See <a href="http://www.joplinglobe.com/dailybusiness/x1437240453/More-municipalities-bet-on-bonds-to-cover-pensions">this</a>... <br />
<br />
...and now lets discuss a little scenario. Your local municipality takes on a load of debt. It gets called by investors. Right now several municipalities have gone bankrupt or are in the process of going bankrupt. The Day of Reckoning hasn't arrived yet though for the vast majority that are on the edge of the knife.<br />
<br />
Now for the little scenario - lets say investors ratchet down and demand the money up front (call the loans). Taxpayers are on the hook via income, property, or corporate taxes and are required by law to pay off the debt. If you can't pay the one time fee they can seize your property and peddle it. How about them apples?<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Property taxes are secured debts. The taxing authority, such as the city
or county, has a lien on the real estate to which the taxes apply. If
you sell the property, the taxes must be paid; and if you do not pay the
taxes, the property can go into tax forfeiture. Secured debts such as property taxes are only dischargeable if you
surrender the secured property. If you want to keep the real estate on
which you owe property taxes, you must repay the taxes. If you surrender your property in bankruptcy, the property taxes are no
longer your obligation. If you have a mortgage, the mortgage company
will foreclose on the property and pay the property taxes from the sale
proceeds. If there is no mortgage and the only debt you owed on the
property was property tax debt, then the taxing authority will take
action to sell the property to satisfy the tax debt. Any remaining
property tax debt after the property is sold will be discharged in your
bankruptcy. <a href="http://www.ehow.com/info_7749250_property-taxes-dischargeable-bankruptcy.html">Source</a></blockquote>

....and a bit more and Ruger isn't the only one getting slammed and firearms/bullets have been hot since Obama (Captain America of the gun industry) came into office in 2008....yet we continue to break records (go Captain America?)... <br />

<div style="font-size: 14px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 14px;">
This year’s uptick comes on top of a record
2011, when nearly 11 million firearms were sold in the U.S., according
to the National Shooting Sports Foundation, a trade association for the
firearms, ammunition, hunting and shooting sports industry. The group
notes the $4 billion firearms business has bucked the weak economy, with
robust sales since 2008.</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px;">

<div style="font-size: 14px;">
One of the best indicators of firearms sales
is the FBI's National Instant Background Check System, which federally
licensed firearm retailers use to conduct the mandatory background check
on purchasers of new and used firearms. Statistics through December
showed an unprecedented 19th straight month of <a href="http://www.nssf.org/bulletpoints/view.cfm?Iyr=2012&Bissue=010312.htm" target="_blank">background check increases</a>
when tabulated year over year. "Black Friday," Nov. 25, 2011, saw a
record for the most background checks in a single day --129,166.</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 14px;">
Another strong indicator comes from Wall
Street. Smith& Wesson shares are up a whopping 125 percent over the
past year, while Sturm, Ruger’s are up about 112 percent. Even Taser,
which makes non-lethal weapons, has seen its sales surge.</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 14px;">
“It’s been a strong cycle. Sales of tactical
rifles have been extremely strong,” Bret Jordan, a stock analyst
specializing in the firearms market, told FoxNews.com, “Personal
handguns have had a steady rise since 2008. The kind of stuff that fits
in the waistband for when someone tries to steal your gas can.” <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/03/22/gun-sales-off-to-bang-for-election-year/">Source</a></div>

"We're at the top of the roller coaster and we're about to plummet
down the side," said DeWayne Irwin, owner of the Cheaper Than Dirt gun

<br />
Some say the
uptick in sales at gun stores could also be linked to anything from the
arrival of tax refunds to a spending spree by fans of the National
Geographic Channel's <span class="italic">Doomsday Preppers </span>show, which chronicles people preparing for the end of the world.<br />
<br />
Nationwide, more people than ever are buying firearms.<br />
<br />
Last
year, the FBI received more than 16.3 million inquiries from people
running criminal background checks on potential gun buyers. That's up
from 12.7 million in 2008 and 11.4 million in 2007, FBI records show. <a href="http://www.star-telegram.com/2012/03/03/3781758/some-say-re-election-fear-is-driving.html#storylink=omni_popular">Source</a></blockquote>

The reason is that the Declaration of Independence was approved on that day by the Continental Congress meeting in Philadelphia. It is an amazing document and, in eloquent language, it announced the Colonies' determination to free themselves of British rule.<br /><br /> The only person to sign the Declaration on July 4 was John Hancock (1737-1793) of Massachusetts, an extremely wealthy man who risked his life and his fortune on the success of the Revolution. He was president of the Continental Congress. When the Continental Congress adjourned on July 4 after debating the Declaration for three days and having voted to adopt the document with some revisions, Hancock was charged with authenticating the revised document, signing it, and sending copies to the colonial legislatures for approval. When Hancock affixed his boldly-written signature to the Declaration, he did so in an empty chamber.<br /><br /> The only other person present was Charles Thomson, a Pennsylvanian serving as secretary of Congress. Thomson was never a signatory. His name appeared on printed copies of the document due to his position as secretary of Congress.<br /><br /> Thus, it is apocryphal that, on signing the Declaration with a flourish and in big letters, that Hancock declared, "There, I guess King George will be able to read that without his spectacles." Like many great historical legends, it apparently never happened.<br /><br /> Most of the other delegates signed the Declaration on August 3, 1776, and the last of 56 signatures would not be added until five years later.</blockquote><br /><a href="http://www.specialforces.com/newsletter/2011_07/"><span style="font-weight:bold;">SOURCE</span></a><br /><br />As we contemplate our liberties and the current situation of the United States of America....what with TSA fondling children, fighting wars of aggression and occupation not to mention the millions of innocent lives we have taken (like depleted uranium munitions), <a href="http://blogs.reuters.com/muniland/2011/06/27/the-global-spiderweb-of-debt/"><span style="font-weight:bold;">indebtedness</span></a> on a scale never previously seen (greed - wanting tomorrow's things today to the point of <a href="http://economicedge.blogspot.com/2011/07/morning-update-market-thread-78-what.html"><span style="font-weight:bold;">debt saturation</span></a> and the result <a href="http://theautomaticearth.blogspot.com/2011/07/july-8-2011-get-ready-for-north.html"><span style="font-weight:bold;">demand destruction</span></a>), fraud and corruption rampant in government (like <a href="http://publicintelligence.net/atf-fast-and-furious-top-gun-trafficking-suspects-were-fbi-dea-informants/"><span style="font-weight:bold;">ATF “Fast and Furious” Top Gun Trafficking Suspects Were FBI, DEA Informants</span></a>) and every major industry (like major banks laundering billions from drug smuggling proceeds - i.e. <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/apr/03/us-bank-mexico-drug-gangs"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Wachovia/Wells Fargo</span></a>), prevalent immorality from pornography to the adoptance of same sex partnerships, the murdering of millions every year via abortion, etc etc etc....we must ask the question - Where are we headed???<br /><br /><blockquote>Former U.S. Comptroller General David Walker warns that “there are striking similarities between America’s current situation and that of another great power from the past: Rome.” Three reasons “worth remembering: declining moral values and political civility at home, an overconfident and overextended military in foreign lands, and fiscal irresponsibility by the central government.” We are becoming more vulnerable to external enemies.</blockquote><br /><a href="http://www.zerohedge.com/article/paul-farrells-7-reasons-why-america-needs-good-depression-nowor-face-great-depression-later"><span style="font-weight:bold;">SOURCE</span></a><br /><br />I believe the crux of the problem is that freedom and the loss thereof is a spiritual problem for which there is not a political solution. The wicked (unprincipled) are in need of harsher taskmasters! <br /><br />We can talk about the Constitution and our Constitutional rights all we want but the reality is they are all gone except for the franchise (right) to vote.....and that's meager at best with the likes of ES&S and DVS controlling 95% of the voting machine market (DVS up until most recently bragged on their website - <a href="http://www.dominionvoting.com/"><span style="font-weight:bold;">We are much more than a systems manufacturer; we are an election solutions company.</span></a>) <br /><br />And while we rant about the Constitution most forget about the foundation which is God as shown in the foundation documents - especially the Declaration of Independence. We are on track for a head on collision with the Laws of Nature and Nature's God. Our hands and land are bloody with the blood of the innocent.....from unprincipled wars of aggression to abortion. Unless the people change course (repentance) and reconcile themselves to God's will/law (obedience) we will reap the consequences....and no man/men shall stop it. <br /><br />Now I've been a big supporter of Ron Paul for many years now and donated to his 2008 campaign run for president. Over the past 3 to 4 months I've grown more cautious of him to the point that now I think he's no more solution to our problems than any other politician currently in the running for President. That said he's probably still one of the best in D.C. for lip service to the Constitution....anyways here are four of my major issues -<br /><br />1) Wachovia (now under the Wells Fargo banner) was convicted of laundering several hundred billion dollars of drug money for the Mexican cartels (ultimately CIA as CIA planes were involved in cocaine smuggling).<br /><br />Ron Paul is a senior member of the House Banking Committee. He hasn't mentioned this once to my knowledge.<br /><br />2) In Ron Paul's last presidential run I've discovered that he knew he was going to withdraw from the race for president at least a month before he did so......meanwhile collecting millions in campaign funds from individuals who expected him to use that money in his run for president - which he didn't. In fact he cut his campaign spending allowing the large grassroots movement that had swelled around him to continue their efforts while he raked in the money.<br /><br />Of course most Ron Paul supporters support him on the basis that he is a voice to the masses....and that his campaigning is not necessarily about him winning the race as much as it is an opportunity for him to voice his appeals to the Constitution.<br /><br />3) Ron Paul has partnered with Democrat Barney Frank to introduce bill to legalize marijuana. Right off the bat this partnership stinks and frankly the bill is unconstitutional. Here's a couple links -<br /><br /><a href="http://ca.news.yahoo.com/lawmakers-introduce-bill-legalize-marijuana-225335489.html"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Marijanua 1</span></a><br /><br /><a href="http://biggovernment.com/jdeangelis/2011/06/24/doobie-brothers-ron-and-barney/"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Marijuana 2</span></a><br /><br />Ron Paul wrote the forward to Judge Andrew Napolitano new book; "Lies the Government told you." -<br /><br /><blockquote>"One of the most important lessons Judge Napolitano exposes is how both the Conservatives war on Marijuana and the Liberals war on tobacco are manifestations of paternalism.- The Idea that government has a legitimate authority to stop adults from doing bad things, like smoking substances that politicians& bureaucrats do not approve of. Of course smoking, weather of marijuana or tobacco, does have negative health consequences- but respecting the right of individuals to be wrong, as long as they do not interfere with the rights of others, is one of the pillars of society." </blockquote><br /><br />Actually the pillar of any society should be Laws of Nature and Nature's God....or else it isn't much of a pillar. What Ron Paul is saying is that everyone can violate the Law's of Nature to their hearts content as long as they don't interfere with the rights of others. Of course you have to ask yourself....who gave everyone their rights? It certainly wasn't the Constitution!<br /><br />Are we interfering with the rights of children to prohibit them from tobacco, marijuana, pornography, alcohol, etc???<br /><br />I believe neither libertarianism nor socialism is the answer. Only correct alignment with the Law's of Nature and Nature's God(principles) is. I believe that embracing (legalizing) and allowing (legalizing) that which is evil compromises the virtue of our children as well as setting up the collision course with the Law's of Nature and all its consequences.<br /><br />4) Ron Paul supported Obama and his vote to repeal "Don't ask Don't tell" after saying the day before he wouldn't. I believe this is not in alignment with the Constitution which Ron Paul so ardently claims to uphold. Also indicative of his many other switcharoos like his stance on Obamacare. Or his backing down on the impeachment of the past two presidencies when he said he would support it. One day he accuses Bush/Cheney of completely violating the Constitution and the next day when it comes time for a vote he backs down saying there is not enough evidence.<br /><br />Alan Keyes summed it up in the following manner -<br /><br /><blockquote>The Constitution is founded upon the Declaration of Independence. The first premise of the Declaration of Independence is that morality is defined by God's will, not (collective or individual) human will. If you reject that premise, you reject what follows from it, which is the whole idea of government limited in its exercise of power by respect for right, as endowed (which is to say provisioned) by God not human (individual or collective) will. The provisions made for human laws and government must therefore respect the provisions of God's law and sovereignty.<br /><br />Government is all about the use of force to assure respect for "the laws of nature and of nature's God."<br /><br />The idea of natural right doesn't lead to a world in which all human (sexual or other) preferences must be treated as equal. Rather it guarantees security only for those who exercise right, i.e., choose to act rightly, as determined by the standard of nature, i.e., the way the Creator made human beings to be.<br /><br />Nature is not a human preference or choice. It is a consequence of the Creator's choice. Natural rights are not about respecting human whims. They are a consequence of respect for the limits and boundaries whereby God defines the distinct possibility of human existence, and in so doing sets human nature free. Therefore, the basis for constitutional government in the United States is not respect for equality regardless of right. It is respect for the equality of all who act rightly, which is to say in a way that preserves human nature by observing the limits and boundaries that make its existence possible.<br /><br />The founders of the United States referred to God. They stated that rights and the authority of law are endowments by the Creator. They relied on Divine Providence and appeal "to the Supreme Judge of the World [ a phrase drawn directly from Locke, as I recall ] for the rectitude" of their intentions. (Rectitude means "rightness", so they regard the Supreme Judge as the final arbiter of what is right, and therefore of the meaning of rights.)<br /><br />Without God reason is a ruler with no standard by which to mark its length, good only as kindling for the flames of unruly passion.</blockquote><br /><br />At the end of the day though this rant is intended to be more than just a tirade on Ron Paul, who frankly is one of the best politicians we have in D.C. at the moment, .....the reality check on the fact that Ron Paul (and any other politician) is NOT going to save the Constitution/country/economy...THERE IS NO POLITICAL SAVIOR! Ron Paul's hand if ever appointed as President will still be forced by the needs of the times to inflict harsher sentences upon a wicked people (despite the clamor for the Constitution) or he will have to let it all decay into chaos. A people who clamor to have it all today while they wallow in the filthy mire and refuse to pay the price when tomorrow arrives....will ultimately destroy each other as reality hits home.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5iwupkZ2uCUfXqbcvNlsWFV1oJL1Q?docId=a08a61b1f1e540e48ebf5e239723df2d"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Neighbor vs. neighbor as homeowner fights get ugly</span></a><br /><br />The Republic is government based on God's law.<br /><br />Samuel Adams said - "<span style="font-weight:bold;">Democracy never lasts long.

I quit my three partners and went to Greytown with a capital of a thousand dollars. There I met up with an Englishman who had mining interests in Honduras and went with him to Tegucigalpa, the capital of that country. Something entirely different happened to break up this Honduras venture.<br /><br /> "I'd been managing the mining property out in the mountains near the capital for a year and began to feel like a real mining magnate on my way to millions when along comes the Fourth of July and with it a feeling to celebrate. I concluded I would give the natives a regular old-fashioned Kentucky barbecue. We were making lots of money and I staged the fiesta lavishly, telling the native miners to go into Tegucigalpa and bring out all their friends.<br /><br /> "The day arrived, and how things hummed! Unwisely I had supplied the camp with aguardiente and that's what worked our ruin. There were several native bands of music, enthusiasm ran high, everybody got mellow, I along with the rest. I spoke Spanish pretty well than, but I couldn't seem to get them to take much interest in my speech until I began reading from a copy of our Declaration of Independence and translating it as I went along.<br /><br /> "The first time I used the words, 'Independencia y Libertad," they all began to prick up their ears and a few yelled out 'Independence and Liberty forever!' Then I began talking about tyrants, the bands began playing patriotic airs and the whole gang started yowling like demons. They all thought it was a pronunciamento, a declaration of revolution, and began calling me General and shouting, 'On to Tegucigalpa! Down with tyrants! Viva el General!'<br /><br /> "There was a mad rush toward the capital and I was borne along on the current. Such excitement I never saw in my life. We emerged from the mountain road onto the Camino Real leading to the city and rushed headlong down it, the crowd screaming all the time, 'Viva el General!' and brandishing machetes. Speak to them! Explain! Might just as well have tried to reason with a Kansas cyclone or a Dakota blizzard.<br /><br /> "As we rolled along we gained in numbers and when we neared the city there were at least a thousand of us. The garrison of the capital had been warned of our approach and as we reached the city gates they were ready for us. They just naturally gathered us in without firing a shot, and that night I slept in the calaboose.<br /><br /> "The next morning I had a drum-head court martial and was sentenced to be shot at sunrise.

Flooding threatens land that produces 540 million bushels of corn and 140 million bushels of soybeans. There is more rain soon expected over the whole Upper Missouri River watershed. Four of the nation’s 10 largest reservoirs are along the Missouri River — Fort Peck, Fort Randall, Garrison and Oahe. With a combined height of 700 feet, these three dams are nearly full. Melting snow surely will complete the task. The water level at Oahe Dam was within six-tenths of one foot of the top of the spillway gates at midnight July 4. The water passed through Oahe Dam goes into Lake Sharpe, where the water level was within three feet of the top of spillway gates at Big Bend Dam on Monday night. Gavins Point currently has more than three feet of freeboard between the water in Lewis and Clark Reservoir and the top of the dam’s gates.</blockquote><br /><a href="http://forums.wallstreetexaminer.com/topic/978149-ag-situation-still-dicey-and-gasoline-on-the-run-again/"><span style="font-weight:bold;">SOURCE</span></a><br /><br /><blockquote>A Record 6.3 Million Acres Of Crops In North Dakota Will Go Unplanted<br /><br />After driving through much of the northern Red River Valley late last week, it was painfully evident that many acres of crops on both sides of the river will not get planted this year, and many more acres have been drowned out by relentless rains. If things weren’t bad enough, much of the area received more than two inches of rain over the weekend.<br /><br />When the USDA number came out this week, it wasn’t a shock to read some of the numbers. An estimated 6.3 million acres of North Dakota’s 28.2 million acres of cropland will not get planted. That crushes the old record of 3.9 million acres set in 1999. Combine the unplanted acres with planted crops that will be lost due to drown-out, total losses could easily reach 8 million acres, or 28%of the total crop.<br /><br />The worst hit area is the typically arid northwest corner of North Dakota where unplanted acres due to wet conditions are off the charts. Divide county, the state’s northwestern most county, will see 80% of its crops go unplanted. The heavy precipitation in northwest North Dakota and neighboring southeastern Saskatchewan has caused the typically tame Souris River to devastate Minot, ND, where more than 4,000 homes and businesses have been lost to flooding.<br /><br />In the Red River Valley, the six counties that border the Red River have not been able to plant nearly 409,000 acres, or about 10% of the crop. Many more acres will be lost to drown-out after heavy rains fell on saturated soil this past weekend.<br /><br />The weekly crop reports from the two states tell the story. While it appears more than 90% of the potatoes have been planted, drown-out and seed rot are a concern, and late blight looms on the horizon.<br /><br />North Dakota and Minnesota have both released condition reports for potatoes. In Minnesota 83% of the potatoes are listed in good or excellent condition, but in North Dakota only 51% are rated good or excellent.</blockquote><br /><a href="http://growingproduce.com/news/?storyid=5699"><span style="font-weight:bold;">SOURCE</span></a><br /><br /><blockquote>(Reuters) - With rivers still running above flood stage and soils saturated, forecasters predicted on Wednesday this summer flooding season could rival the worst in United States history</blockquote><br /><a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/07/07/us-flooding-forecast-idUSTRE7657H020110707"><span style="font-weight:bold;">SOURCE</span></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044839004293226183.post-70488721148661843402011-06-29T10:51:00.002-05:002012-04-01T17:53:00.716-05:00DEBTDebt saturation has occurred.

Some Western states receive a greater proportion of federal grants in the form of revenue from leasing rights to the rich resources being extracted on public lands.

The President today signed an Executive Order (attached) establishing a Council of Governors to strengthen further the partnership between the Federal Government and State Governments to protect our Nation against all types of hazards. When appointed, the Council will be reviewing such matters as involving the National Guard of the various States; homeland defense; civil support; synchronization and integration of State and Federal military activities in the United States; and other matters of mutual interest pertaining to National Guard, homeland defense, and civil support activities.<br />
<br />
The bipartisan Council will be composed of ten State Governors who will be selected by the President to serve two year terms. In selecting the Governors to the Council, the White House will solicit input from Governors and Governors’ associations. Once chosen, the Council will have no more than five members from the same party and represent the Nation as a whole.<br />
<br />
Federal members of the Council include the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism, the Assistant to the President for Intergovernmental Affairs and Public Engagement, the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Americas’ Security Affairs, the U.S. Northern Command Commander, the Commandant of the Coast Guard, and the Chief of the National Guard Bureau. The Secretary of Defense will designate an Executive Director for the Council.<br />
<br />
The Council of Governors will provide an invaluable Senior Administration forum for exchanging views with State and local officials on strengthening our National resilience and the homeland defense and civil support challenges facing our Nation today and in the future.<br />
<br />
The formation of the Council of Governors was required by the Fiscal Year 2008 National Defense Authorization Act which stated, “The President shall establish a bipartisan Council of Governors to advise the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of Homeland Security, and the White House Homeland Security Council on matters related to the National Guard and civil support missions.” (NDAA FY2008, Sec 1822)</blockquote>

One must read this one closely but when it dawns on you that the 10 Governors to be appointed by the President will perhaps soon correspond to the 10 FEMA REGIONS and effectively will be under the Secretary of Defense and hence the President in a system of Regional Military Governors over all States, not just the States they might be from, you might just experience a chill up your spine. Note that then all States in essence have been taken over at least on paper by the President and will be administered Militarily. Read carefully Section -2 Functions, of this Executive Order and you will clearly see how inclusive these functions can be……. especially Item e which has language sufficiently broad and loose that a Tank Battalion could be driven through it.<br />
<br />
Americans had better understand that this Executive Order along with all of those previously signed ,and with Presidential Decision Directive 51 and others will be used to destroy the Constitution and Bill of Rights and to render each American effectively into nothing more than a member of a work gang subject to control of the Regional Military Governor who is under the Secdef who is under the President. Posse Comitatus then is dead, Habeas Corpus is dead, Bill of Rights is dead, and only the whims and subjective decisions of the Regional Military Governor, as directed by the President via the Secretary of Defense and executed by Northcom troopers who now include U.S. , Canadian, Mexican, and other Foreign troops as well as Mercenaries and the States’ National Guards, Militias, and Police agencies will be the Iron Fist Rule of the Land.</blockquote>

The recent order, posted on the White House website, was accompanied by the explanation that the group is to work "to protect our nation against all types of hazards." It comes just weeks after the president issue a similarly obscure order vastly expanding INTERPOL's privileges in the U.S.<br />
<br />
The White House said the new council is to include governors and administration officials to review "such matters as involving the National Guard of the various states; homeland defense, civil support; synchronization and integration of state and federal military activities in the United States; and other matters of mutual interest pertaining to National Guard, homeland defense, and civil support activities."<br />
<br />
However, there was no definition of what would be included in the group's authority. Can the council recommend "military activities" and can the governors, who already are in command of their own state guard units, mandate activities outside of their areas of jurisdiction? The White House did not respond to WND questions on the issue.</blockquote>

This is just another action designed to continue to merge state and federal power. It also opens the door for more military involvement in domestic affairs and has sparked concern that the groundwork is being laid for a “national civilian security force”. Others fear that this is a step in undermining the 10th Amendment by eliminating more of the independent authority and the sovereignty of the States.</blockquote>

In other words, the Pentagon and Homeland Security will give hand-picked governors their marching orders under the guise of “synchronization and integration of State and Federal military activities in the United States,” a direct violation of Posse Comitatus.</blockquote>

<blockquote>
Main Core is the code name of a database maintained since the 1980s by the federal government of the United States, which contains personal and financial data of millions of U.S. citizens believed to be threats to national security.[1] The data, which comes from the NSA, FBI, CIA, and other sources,[2] is collected and stored without warrants or court orders.[3] The database's name derives from the fact that it contains "copies of the 'main core' or essence of each item of intelligence information on Americans produced by the FBI and the other agencies of the U.S. intelligence community."[4]<br />
<br />
The Main Core database is believed to have originated with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in 1982, following Ronald Reagan's Continuity of Operations plan outlined in the National Security Directive (NSD) 69 / National Security Decision Directive (NSDD) 55, entitled "Enduring National Leadership," implemented on September 14, 1982.[5]<br />
<br />
As of 2008 there are reportedly eight million Americans listed in the database as possible threats,[6][not in citation given] often for trivial reasons,[7][not in citation given] whom the government may choose to track, question, or detain in a time of crisis.[8][not in citation given]<br />
<br />
The existence of the database was first reported on in May 2008 by Christopher Ketcham and in July 2008 by Tim Shorrock.[9]</blockquote>

This has to be the scariest thing I have read in a very long time. The Rand Corporation was asked by the US Army to prepare a report recommending whether or not the US Needed a National Stability Police force. Basically a call for American "Brown Shirts" Rand's answer was a resounding yes.<br />
<br />
Our analysis clearly indicates that the United States needs an SPF or some other way to accomplish the SPF mission. Stability operations have become an inescapable reality of U.S. foreign policy. Establishing security with soldiers and police is critical because it is difficult to achieve other objectives—such as rebuilding political and economic systems—without it.</blockquote>

Background: the First Brigade of the Third Infantry Division, three to four thousand soldiers, has been deployed in the United States as of October 1. Their stated mission is the form of crowd control they practiced in Iraq, subduing "unruly individuals," and the management of a national emergency. I am in Seattle and heard from the brother of one of the soldiers that they are engaged in exercises now. Amy Goodman reported that an Army spokesperson confirmed that they will have access to lethal and non lethal crowd control technologies and tanks.<br />
<br />
George Bush struck down Posse Comitatus, thus making it legal for military to patrol the U.S. He has also legally established that in the "War on Terror," the U.S. is at war around the globe and thus the whole world is a battlefield. Thus the U.S. is also a battlefield.</blockquote>

Last year, I ranted about the death of Posse Comitatus and the presence of an active-duty military unit inside the borders of the United States. If you missed these posts, come up to speed now – otherwise, you may not appreciate the full impact of what I’m about to tell you.<br />
<br />
This active-duty military unit is US Army 3rd Infantry Division’s 1st Brigade Combat Team (otherwise known as the Chemical, Biological, Radiological/Nuclear, and Explosive Consequence Management Response Force or CCMRF – pronounced, strangely enough, “sea-smurf”). Last time I checked on the whereabouts of this brigade, they had returned home from Iraq (October 2008) to Fort Stewart, Georgia, which is their base.<br />
<br />
I’ve now found them in Orlando, Florida. They’ve been on the move, toughing it out in ‘gator territory and running simulated exercises (the type that will give them very solid experience to react to social unrest rapidly and effectively). I’ve asked before why a highly experienced combat brigade has returned to the US – and is potentially giving the finger to Posse Comitatus if this brigade is going to be increasingly taking a role in domestic law enforcement (let us remind ourselves that the US Constitution limits the power of the Federal Government to use the military for law enforcement). To find out just how highly experienced this brigade is (they are known as “Rock of the Marne”) go here.<br />
<br />
Of course, a Commander has been quick to state that the brigade is “…… not allowed to act in the place of law enforcement”. So they’ve been busy participating in urban search and rescue efforts along with local officials. Now let’s not lose sight of the fact that the CCMRF is a fully trained and experienced unit that has spent over 35 months in Iraq patrolling in “full battle rattle”. They are well used to confronting an enemy in a theatre of war – so why are they back in the States simulating search and rescue efforts? What are they going to be rescuing, searching for or getting control of?</blockquote>

<blockquote>
Speculation about the mysterious origin and funding of the so-called Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has continued for decades.<br />
<br />
The history of FEMA as an illegal unconstitutional entity has been most recently exposed in an unprecedented lawsuit against the CIA and its alleged drug trafficking and money laundering operations.<br />
<br />
In September 1998 a $63 million lawsuit (Case No. 98CV11829JLT) was filed by Massachusetts attorney Ray Kohlman on behalf of former Green Beret Bill Tyree.<br />
<br />
Kohlman, a former legal investigator for attorney William Pepper in the Martin Luther King murder trial of James Earl Ray, filed a 101-page complaint on behalf of his client.<br />
<br />
The suit, replete with five inches of affidavits and appendices, names the Central Intelligence Agency, former Massachusetts Governor A. Paul Celucci, former Massachusetts Attorney-General Scott Harshbarger, former CIA director and US President George Bush and self-admitted government assassin D. Gene Tatum as defendants in a far-reaching case involving US Government sanctioned drug smuggling, murder, and coverup.<br />
<br />
Bill Tyree is currently serving a life sentence for the murder of his wife -- a case eerily similar to that of Dr. Jeffrey McDonald, a Ft. Bragg doctor who was framed for the murder of his wife and children in the early 1980s.<br />
<br />
"In the mid 1970s, while serving in Panama, Tyree and other Green Berets were led into Colombia under the command of Green Beret Colonels Cutolo and Baker to plant radio beacons, so that plane loads of cocaine could fly below Colombian and US radar, and land undetected in Panama," writes former LAPD officer Mike Ruppert in his newsletter (From the Wilderness, P. O. Box 6061-350, Sherman Oaks, CA 91413, http://www.copvcia.com).<br />
<br />
"Orders for these missions came from the CIA's Ed Wilson and Tom Clines," continues Ruppert. "Tyree had been a part of many secret missions and was losing his taste for it. His wife was keeping a diary [for which she was presumably murdered, and which later disappeared]."<br />
<br />
"Five Special Forces Colonels -- Cutolo, Baker, Malvesti, Rower and Bayard -- have died under mysterious circumstances since. The heart of the Tyree documentation consists of an affidavit allegedly written by Colonel Cutolo who was also Tyree's commanding officer at Fort Devens, Mass. at the time of Tyree's arrest. Both were then with the 10th Special Forces."<br />
<br />
"That fifteen page document gives precise details of CIA drug operations using Special Forces personnel. It also describes how Tyree was framed for the murder of his wife and how Special Forces personnel were used to intimidate and conduct illegal electronic and physical surveillance of anyone who might expose CIA drug dealing."<br />
<br />
According to the complaint in the lawsuit, "the Plaintiff [Tyree] alleges that the Defendants CIA and George Bush were negligent and failed at the conclusion of Operation Watchtower to monitor the post-Watchtower events and seek legal congressional funding for the origination of FEMA (Federal Emergency Managemnt Agency), and this failure led to the concealment and coverup of Operation Watchtower, written about in the diaries of Elaine Tyree, seized illegally and turned over to Colonel Carone and then to the CIA, which ensured that the Operation Watchtower drug trafficking operation would remain covert, allowing the drug profits from this Operation to be used to circumvent Congress and fund FEMA and continue the pattern of criminal activity."<br />
<br />
Colonel Carone, who died in 1990, was a CIA paymaster and Mafia-connected money launderer, who incidentally held the rank of full colonel in Army Intelligence. As Oliver North's bagman, he also couriered large amounts of cash in and out of the country.<br />
<br />
...<br />
<br />
Tyree's lawsuit alleges that "to coverup Operation Watchtower which was one of several illegal drug operations that produced a profit which was used in turn to help originate and implement FEMA violating: a. Separation of powers: the executive branch brought about an agency (i.e. FEMA) which has the authority to suspend the US Constitution, (e.g. further suspending legislative and judicial branches), but is vague in its verbiage as to what does constitute an emergency and fails to list what, if any duties the legislature and judiciary will have to perform if the US Constitiution is suspended."<br />
<br />
Even though the origin of FEMA has remained historically unclear, Tyree's lawsuit alleges that FEMA, created by Executive Order, is illegitimate "since Congress had to approve FEMA for two specific reasons: (1) FEMA is a vaguely written Executive Branch created agency that has the power to suspend the US Constitution and put the legislative and judicial branches of government out of work; (2) FEMA is an Executive Branch creation that clearly affects all three branches of Government capable of silencing the voice of the people, (i.e. legislative) and the legal redress of the people, (i.e. judiciary)."<br />
<br />
FEMA was allegedly created by Executive Order 12148 which became law simply by its publication in the Federal Registry. In other words, Congress was bypassed for FEMA's authorization as well as its funding. But if Congress never authorized the "agency," where do operational expenses come from?<br />
<br />
Tyree's lawsuit alleges that laundered drug profits were the initial source of funding.<br />
<br />
According to the lawsuit, "the Plaintiff alleges the Defendants CIA and George Bush did intentionally engage in the complained of conduct herein to conceal: (1) the origins of FEMA and that profits from drug trafficking by the CIA were used in some part to originally fund FEMA and the drafting of the FEMA infrastructure." Two "FEMA"s?<br />
<br />
In an even more astounding allegation, the lawsuit claims that Colonel Carone told the Plaintiff that "Colonel Ollie North worked on developing a plan known as FEMA, which would in an ill-defined national emergency, allow the US Military to take control of the United States to ensure National Security" and that Colonel Carone said that "FEMA" originally stood for "Federal Emergency Military Action." (i.e. Martial Law), but was retitled Federal Emergency Management Agency because it would be better received by the people of the United States.<br />
<br />
The late Colonel Carone also claimed that "he took drug profits that were clean and laundered in 1982-1984 to the following: NSC -- Colonel Oliver North who used the funds to create and develop FEMA." [p. 88 of the lawsuit]<br />
<br />
Colonel Carone also testified that "FEMA was one of those off-the-shelf creations that was funded through the giant black operations fund which came about from drug trafficking operations instituted by the CIA which Congress has no idea of and no control over," that "the FEMA Chain of Command, rules and regulations that he had seen violated the US Constitution, and actually established a succession to the Office of the President in the event of an emergency that circumvented the Vice- President and the Speaker of the House of Representatives."<br />
<br />
Carone said "NSC used drug trafficking profits to start FEMA without congressional approval... a 1981 NSC Directive written by Frank Carlucci [states]: `Normally a state of martial law will be proclaimed by the President. However in the absence of such action by the President, a senior military commander may impose martial law in an area of his command where there had been a complete breakdown in the exercise of government functions by local authorities.'"<br />
<br />
"Colonel Carone said a literal interpretation of the 1981 NSC Directive was that a local yokel national guard commander could institute martial law, and the actions of FEMA, without local citizens ever knowing how FEMA came to be, or what FEMA was originally intended to be about, would automatically be triggered without any type of presidential order... Congress doesn't even have the purse strings on this one. It's all from the Black Operations Fund which Congress will never force the US Intelligence Community to admit even exists."<br />
<br />
None dare call it fascism, but due to this explosive lawsuit, the origin of FEMA and its funding may finally be known.<br />
<br />
On the other hand, don't hold your breath. If this lawsuit escapes the black hole of so-called "national security law" or the clutches of a corrupt judiciary, it will be a major miracle.</blockquote>

<blockquote>
In "X-Files" one of the characters explains that "FEMA allows the White House to suspend constitutional government upon declaration of a national emergency. It allows creation of a non-elected government. Think about that, Agent Mulder."<br />
<br />
The Washington Post's federal column made fun of the claim, and quoted FEMA public affairs guidance about the movie that essentially paints those concerned with the agency's potential role as kooks. Says the FEMA spinhead: "it is not realistic to think that we can convince them otherwise and it is advisable not to enter into debate on the subject." FEMA suggests that officials can "emphatically state that FEMA does not have, never has had, nor will ever seek, the authority to suspend the Constitution."<br />
<br />
This is just plain untrue. Not only have there been past plans for FEMA and the military to assume an extra-constitutional role, but a recent presidential directive suggest that it is still a possibility not far from the Clinton administration's thoughts. Presidential Decision Directive #63 on "critical infrastructure protection" specifically assigns FEMA the task of "continuity of government" services, the precise term used in previous plans for a anti-constitutional takeover in a time of crisis. Further, as with previous plans, the Clinton order is stunningly silent on any role in such an emergency for the legislative and judicial branches or for state and local government.</blockquote>

<blockquote>
It seems as though Oliver North is America-Right’s favorite traitorous scum. During the dark days of the Regan Revolution, when Regan was considering invading Nicaragua, he issued an executive order giving the Federal Emergency Management Agency (F.E.M.A.) a broad range of powers in the event of a “crisis” specifically defined as “violent and widespread internal dissent or national opposition against a U.S. military invasion abroad.” From 1982-84, Colonel Oliver North, as the Assistant Deputy Director for Political-Military Affairs, assisted F.E.M.A.’s efforts in drafting “civil defense” plans based on Regan’s orders. In 1987, during the Iran-Contra scandal, the ugly truth about the program, officially titled “REX-84,” came pouring out. Ultimately, North was convicted of a kid crime: perjury. He now hosts a right-wing radio talk show, but his legacy lives on.<br />
<br />
Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfield have been associates for many years. Some of their greatest hits compilations come straight out of North’s heyday. In the early 80’s, Cheney, then a Wyoming congressman, and Rumsfield, fresh off his position as Ford’s Secretary of Defense, drafted plans for the suspension of the Constitution. The idea was that the basis of our nation could be removed not just after a nuclear attack, but for any “national security emergency.” These conditions were defined under 1988 Executive Order number 12656 as: “Any occurrence, including natural disaster, military attack, technological or other emergency that seriously degrades or seriously threatens the national security of the United States.”<br />
<br />
In the wake of such an event, Cheney and Rumsfield set in place a plan for the “Continuity of Government” (COG). According to the Washington Post, if C.O.G. were fully implemented, martial law would be declared in the United States and a network of 100 civilian managers operating outside of Washington would assume governing functions. The plans literally establish a shadow government to take over in case our sitting officials are sacked. Under martial law, F.E.M.A. was to establish a network of civilian and immigrant detention camps to control unrestrained population movements and suppress violent resistance from citizens. Questions about the program persisted to the point where even Regan’s Attorney General, William French Smith, began to raise objections.<br />
<br />
Talk of such things emerged again during the 9/11 Commission hearings.<br />
<br />
When Bush was appointed to the presidency in 2000, Cheney was reunited with F.E.M.A. According to the 9/11 Commission report, on 9/11 the president ordered the first ever activation of a “top secret” program that would implement further “continuity of government measures.” Oliver North’s plan for suspension of the constitution and the mass detention of civilians became a central part of Rumsfield and Cheney’s C.O.G program. In the 80’s, the three men represented a small faction of this nation’s leadership. Today, they are the nation’s leadership.</blockquote>

<blockquote>
Reagan signed NSD 52 that authorized the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and National Guard forces to prepare to round up over 400,000 people into prison camps. Under the guidance of an unknown Marine colonel, Oliver North, a secret operation called "Rex 84 Bravo" practiced these plans in April 1984.<br />
<br />
The Miami Herald published parts of a FEMA memo that described an "Alpha Two Phase" of the exercise as a test of "emergency legislation, assumption of emergency powers." In other words, the operation included plans for martial law and the suspension of the U.S. Constitution.<br />
<br />
REX 84 was connected to the testing of two other major war plans. Operation Night Train deployed thousands of U.S. troops to Contra bases in Honduras for an invasion of Nicaragua. A separate operation practiced military command-and-control for global nuclear war.</blockquote>

<blockquote>
When president Ronald Reagan was considering invading Nicaragua he issued a series of executive orders that provided the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) with broad powers in the event of a "crisis" such as "violent and widespread internal dissent or national opposition against a US military invasion abroad". They were never used.<br />
<br />
But with the looming possibility of a US invasion of Iraq, recent pronouncements by President George Bush's domestic security chief, Tom Ridge, and an official with the US Civil Rights Commission should fire concerns that these powers could be employed or a de facto drift into their deployment could occur.<br />
<br />
On July 20 the Detroit Free Press ran a story entitled "Arabs in US could be held, official warns". The story referred to a member of the US Civil Rights Commission who foresaw the possibility of internment camps for Arab Americans. FEMA has practised for such an occasion.<br />
<br />
FEMA, whose main role is disaster response, is also responsible for handling US domestic unrest.<br />
<br />
From 1982-84 Colonel Oliver North assisted FEMA in drafting its civil defence preparations. Details of these plans emerged during the 1987 Iran-Contra scandal.<br />
<br />
They included executive orders providing for suspension of the constitution, the imposition of martial law, internment camps, and the turning over of government to the president and FEMA.<br />
<br />
A Miami Herald article on July 5, 1987, reported that the former FEMA director Louis Guiffrida's deputy, John Brinkerhoff, handled the martial law portion of the planning. The plan was said to be similar to one Mr Giuffrida had developed earlier to combat "a national uprising by black militants". It provided for the detention "of at least 21million American Negroes"' in "assembly centres or relocation camps".<br />
<br />
Today Mr Brinkerhoff is with the highly influential Anser Institute for Homeland Security. Following a request by the Pentagon in January that the US military be allowed the option of deploying troops on American streets, the institute in February published a paper by Mr Brinkerhoff arguing the legality of this.<br />
<br />
He alleged that the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, which has long been accepted as prohibiting such deployments, had simply been misunderstood and misapplied.<br />
<br />
The preface to the article also provided the revelation that the national plan he had worked on, under Mr Giuffrida, was "approved by Reagan, and actions were taken to implement it".<br />
<br />
By April, the US military had created a Northern Command to aid Homeland defence. Reuters reported that the command is "mainly expected to play a supporting role to local authorities".<br />
<br />
However, Mr Ridge, the Director of Homeland Security, has just advocated a review of US law regarding the use of the military for law enforcement duties.<br />
<br />
Disturbingly, the full facts and final contents of Mr Reagan's national plan remain uncertain. This is in part because President Bush took the unusual step of sealing the Reagan presidential papers last November. However, many of the key figures of the Reagan era are part of the present administration, including John Poindexter, to whom Oliver North later reported.<br />
<br />
At the time of the Reagan initiatives, the then attorney-general, William French Smith, wrote to the national security adviser, Robert McFarlane: "I believe that the role assigned to the Federal Emergency Management Agency in the revised Executive Order exceeds its proper function as a co-ordinating agency for emergency preparedness ... this department and others have repeatedly raised serious policy and legal objections to an 'emergency czar' role for FEMA."<br />
<br />
Criticism of the Bush Administration's response to September11 echoes Mr Smith's warning. On June 7 the former presidential counsel John Dean spoke of America's sliding into a "constitutional dictatorship" and martial law.</blockquote>

<blockquote>
Most Americans know FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, as the helping hand that shows up after major natural disasters or large-scale terrorist attacks like 9/11, handing out blankets and dolling out loans like a friendly neighbor with a taxpayer-fattened bank account. But beginning in the early 90's, a small contingent of "conspiracy theorists" began to claim there was something much more sinister to the agency. They see FEMA as the nothing less than the stormtroopers of a New World Order, a dark force for oppression that hides behind its benevolent public image waiting to round up patriotic Americans who dare question the creation of a United Nations-controlled One World Government. Frequently, Jews are implicated as part of the scheme, as are assorted Rockefellers and Rothschilds.<br />
<br />
The idea that such a seemingly benign agency could harbor a hidden agenda has been largely dismissed by the mainstream media as the paranoid rantings of people who wear tinfoil hats and spend way too much time indoors. But is there any substance to the black helicopter crowd's suspicions?<br />
<br />
In fact, the agency does have a long history of totalitarian impulses. In an era of vanishing civil liberties, GNN believes now more than ever it is important to ask: Should we fear FEMA?<br />
<br />
FEMA's precursor was the California Specialized Training Institute, a counter-terrorism training center started by then-Governor Ronald Reagan in 1971. Reagan inaugurated the idea of utilizing the military and law enforcement to combat dissent. He hired retired National Guard General Louis O. Giuffrida to design Operation Cable Splicer. The Cable Splicer plans were martial law proposals to legitimize the arrest and detention of anti-Vietnam war activists and other political dissidents. At the Army War College in 1970, Guiffrida had written a proposal that advocated the roundup and transfer to relocation camps of at least 21 million "American Negroes" in the event of a national uprising.<br />
<br />
In 1979, under President Carter, FEMA was officially created with a single stroke of a pen by Executive Order 1-2148. However, Ronald Reagan elevated FEMA to intelligence agency status by giving the National Security Council authority over the planning for civil defense policy and security. Reagan created a senior-level interdepartmental board, the Emergency Mobilization Preparedness Board, or EMPB, a precursor to the cabinet-level Office of Homeland Security. The EMPB was charged with coordinating plans for civil security.<br />
<br />
Oliver North enters the story here. From 1982 to 1984, North was assigned by National Security Advisor and fellow Iran-Contra conspirator Robert McFarlane to work on the EMPB. Former General Louis Giuffrida was at EMPB as well. According to Covert Action Quarterly, "By forming the Emergency Mobilization Preparedness Board, Ronald Reagan made it possible for a small group of people, under the authority of the NSC, to wield enormous power. They, in turn, used this executive authority to change civil defense planning into a military/police version" of domestic control. While at EMPB, North revised contingency plans for dealing with nuclear war, domestic insurrection and massive military mobilization.<br />
<br />
Giuffrida and North worked to refine and implement Operation GARDEN PLOT, a plan to suspend the Constitution in the event of a national crisis, such as widespread internal opposition to a U.S. military invasion abroad. GARDEN PLOT was actually implemented during LA's Rodney King Riots in the form of street curfews as well as in recent anti-globalization protests.</blockquote>

Coming to a city near you!!! Doubt it will end that well though....I expect some sporadic action late this year with more intensity in 2011 as the hate and violence builds and unemployment runs out.<br />

<blockquote>
The number of high-level officials and experts warning that the economic crisis could lead to revolt and revolution world-wide - even in the U.S. - is growing every day:<br />
<br />
* The U.S. Army War College in November warned in a monograph [click on Policypointers’ pdf link to see the report] titled “Known Unknowns: Unconventional ‘Strategic Shocks’ in Defense Strategy Development” of crash-induced unrest:<br />
<br />
The military must be prepared, the document warned, for a “violent, strategic dislocation inside the United States,” which could be provoked by “unforeseen economic collapse,” “purposeful domestic resistance,” “pervasive public health emergencies” or “loss of functioning political and legal order.” The “widespread civil violence,” the document said, “would force the defense establishment to reorient priorities in extremis to defend basic domestic order and human security.”<br />
<br />
“An American government and defense establishment lulled into complacency by a long-secure domestic order would be forced to rapidly divest some or most external security commitments in order to address rapidly expanding human insecurity at home,” it went on.<br />
<br />
“Under the most extreme circumstances, this might include use of military force against hostile groups inside the United States. Further, DoD [the Department of Defense] would be, by necessity, an essential enabling hub for the continuity of political authority in a multi-state or nationwide civil conflict or disturbance,” the document read.<br />
<br />
* Director of National Intelligence Dennis C. Blair said:<br />
<br />
"The global economic crisis ... already looms as the most serious one in decades, if not in centuries ... Economic crises increase the risk of regime-threatening instability if they are prolonged for a one- or two-year period," said Blair. "And instability can loosen the fragile hold that many developing countries have on law and order, which can spill out in dangerous ways into the international community."***<br />
<br />
"Statistical modeling shows that economic crises increase the risk of regime-threatening instability if they persist over a one-to-two-year period."***<br />
<br />
“The crisis has been ongoing for over a year, and economists are divided over whether and when we could hit bottom. Some even fear that the recession could further deepen and reach the level of the Great Depression. Of course, all of us recall the dramatic political consequences wrought by the economic turmoil of the 1920s and 1930s in Europe, the instability, and high levels of violent extremism.”<br />
<br />
Blair made it clear that - while unrest was currently only happening in Europe - he was worried this could happen within the United States.<br />

Release Date: August 4, 2009<br />
Release Number: HQ-09-094<br />
<br />
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- While testifying before the Senate Ad Hoc Subcommittee on Disaster Recovery today, the Department of Homeland Security's Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Administrator Craig Fugate announced the creation of a "Children's Working Group."<br />
<br />
The working group will allow FEMA and its partners to explore and implement planning and response strategies specific to children throughout the agency and ensure that during a disaster the unique needs of children are not only considered, but fully integrated into how FEMA administers this support to states and the public.<br />
<br />
"It is time for special needs populations, whether children or any other segment of our communities who have traditionally been underserved, to be more fully and consistently integrated into preparedness and planning efforts at every level of government," Administer Fugate said. "Children are a part of every community. We must understand and address their needs from the outset, recognizing that they are not simply small adults. That means not putting the considerations specific to children in a separate box, but incorporating them into our planning on the front end."<br />
<br />
The Children's Working Group will be composed of FEMA employees across multiple directorates and offices to ensure coordination and action, and will report directly to the Office of the Administrator. The working group will be chaired by Tracy Wareing, counselor to Secretary Napolitano for FEMA.</blockquote>

<blockquote>
THE MOST POWERFUL ORGANIZATION IN THE UNITED STATES.<br />
<br />
Though it may be the most powerful organization in the United States, few people know it even exists. But it has crept into our private lives. Even mortgage papers contain FEMA's name in small print if the property in question is near a flood plain. FEMA was deeply involved in the Los Angeles riots and the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake in the San Francisco Bay Area. Some of the black helicopter traffic reported throughout the United States, but mainly in the West, California, Washington, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and Colorado, are flown by FEMA personnel. FEMA has been given responsibility for many new disasters including urban forest fires, home heating emergencies, refugee situations, urban riots, and emergency planning for nuclear and toxic incidents. In the West, it works in conjunction with the Sixth Army. FEMA was created in a series of Executive Orders. A Presidential Executive Order, whether Constitutional or not, becomes law simply by its publication in the Federal Registry. Congress is by-passed.<br />
<br />
Executive Order Number 12148 created the Federal Emergency Management Agency that is to interface with the Department of Defense for civil defense planning and funding. An "emergency czar" was appointed. FEMA has only spent about 6 percent of its budget on national emergencies. The bulk of their funding has been used for the construction of secret underground facilities to assure continuity of government in case of a major emergency, foreign or domestic.<br />
<br />
Executive Order Number 12656 appointed the National Security Council as the principal body that should consider emergency powers. This allows the government to increase domestic intelligence and surveillance of U.S. citizens and would restrict the freedom of movement within the United States and grant the government the right to isolate large groups of civilians. The National Guard could be federalized to seal all borders and take control of U.S. air space and all ports of entry. Here are just a few Executive Orders associated with FEMA that would suspend the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. These Executive Orders have been on record for nearly 30 years and could be enacted by the stroke of a Presidential pen:<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 10990 allows the government to take over all modes of transportation and control of highways and seaports.<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 10995 allows the government to seize and control the communication media.<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 10997 allows the government to take over all electrical power, gas, petroleum, fuels and minerals.<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 10998 allows the government to take over all food resources and farms.<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11000 allows the government to mobilize civilians into work brigades under government supervision.<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11001 allows the government to take over all health, education and welfare functions.<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11002 designates the Postmaster General to operate a national registration of all persons.<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11003 allows the government to take over all airports and aircraft, including commercial aircraft.<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11004 allows the Housing and Finance Authority to relocate communities, build new housing with public funds, designate areas to be abandoned, and establish new locations for populations.<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11005 allows the government to take over railroads, inland waterways and public storage facilities.<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11051 specifies the responsibility of the Office of Emergency Planning and gives authorization to put all Executive Orders into effect in times of increased international tensions and economic or financial crisis.<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11310 grants authority to the Department of Justice to enforce the plans set out in Executive Orders, to institute industrial support, to establish judicial and legislative liaison, to control all aliens, to operate penal and correctional institutions, and to advise and assist the President.<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11049 assigns emergency preparedness function to federal departments and agencies, consolidating 21 operative Executive Orders issued over a fifteen year period.<br />
<br />
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11921 allows the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency to develop plans to establish control over the mechanisms of production and distribution, of energy sources, wages, salaries, credit and the flow of money in U.S. financial institution in any undefined national emergency. It also provides that when a state of emergency is declared by the President, Congress cannot review the action for six months. The Federal Emergency Management Agency has broad powers in every aspect of the nation.</blockquote>

<span style="font-weight: bold;">The Constitution does not enforce itself....everything that is taking place today is a direct result of the carelessness and negligence of the people! Whether or not you believe in God...its a very difficult position to argue that the judgments are not just and long overdue!</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044839004293226183.post-90585722245447512332009-11-23T06:03:00.001-06:002012-04-02T20:05:16.381-05:00Ukraine Epidemic<blockquote>
We have lived through a most interesting experience. From the very end of October until about a week ago, a large Central European nation, the Ukraine, was experiencing what could only be called a man-made biological warfare event in the western part of the Ukraine. At its height, 200,000 people were becoming ill a day! Final official figures indicate that over 1 1/2 million people became sick in a short time, and about 150,000 were hospitalized (over half of which are still in the hospital), but less than 400 died.<br />
<br />
As I said at the time, there were really two stories. The first story was the outbreak of what was/is called "Ukrainian Plague". The second story was the fact that the mainstream news media totally ignored the story for the first couple of weeks; with British newspapers (and some American media) finally covering the story only in the last week or so.<br />
<br />
We are still not really sure what was/is the cause of the illness. Some people are insisting that this was a 'recombined' or a mutated version of A/H1N1 Swine Flu with a key but small change (D225G receptor site) being responsible for the massive spike in cases and the rather horrific nature of some of the cases. In some fatal cases, the lungs turned to mush, were full of blood and coal black in color, and recorded an internal temperature of 130F to 135F. Many doctors called this Pneumonic Plague, others said it was some type of hemorrhagic fever, others called it hemorrhagic influenza, yet others said it was a type of hemorrhagic pneumonia. These were descriptions based on what the doctors were seeing in the very ill patients.<br />
<br />
The World Health Organization (WHO) refused to release genetic sequences for almost two weeks and when it did, said that the disease was simply A/H1N1. WHO did not explain how the Swine Flu, which had been showing itself to be much less dangerous than normal seasonal flu, was suddenly causing such a massive spike in cases or how the mild disease could cause the hemorrhagic effect in lung tissue without a major mutation.<br />
<br />
There are a couple of major aspects to the story that are 'most interesting'. In mid-August a dual national Israeli-American citizen, a Joseph Moshe who is an expert on biological warfare and reported to be a Mossad agent, called in to Dr. True Ott's national radio talk show and claimed that Baxter International was getting ready to release a 'Plague' from their Ukrainian facility. I am not sure, but this call might have taken place just after the show was over. In any case, he was arrested on his way to meet with an Assistant US Attorney to report his claims. The arrest was carried on television and it was reported that he was flown out of the US to Israel. Now it appears that he was charged with a minor offense and may be in a California state mental hospital.<br />
<br />
The other 'most interesting' aspect to this story is the eyewitness accounts by hundreds, if not thousands, in the western Ukraine who saw light aircraft during the day of October 29 spraying something over Ukrainian cities. The government denied doing this and said that no one had permission to spray the cities. Within hours of this spraying, people began to get very ill. In fact the beginning of the spike of the illnesses from "Ukrainian Plague' is connected to the time of the spraying of the western Ukrainian cities with some unknown material.<br />
<br />
If this is a 'recombination' or 'mutation' of Swine Flu, WHY HAS THE GROWTH IN THE NUMBER OF CASES DECLINED SO DRAMATICALLY? It is said that the changed virus (A/H1N1) has spread to Norway, and perhaps Poland and the eastern part of the Ukraine. If so, and the D225G change is the reason for the massive spike in sicknesses in the western Ukraine and the hemorrhagic lungs in the worst cases, why are we not seeing such large numbers of very sick people in Norway, Poland, eastern Ukraine, etc.?<br />
<br />
Something rotten is going on here! But the true reason for what happened, and the people responsible are not publicly known at this time. Nor is any clear indication known as to what is apt to happen in the future with regards to "Ukrainian Plague".<br />
<br />
UPDATE:<br />
<br />
A few hours after writing the above, a reader sent me this story: Polk County Coroner - H1N1 Deaths Understated ~ link ~ "In the autopsy, what we're seeing is very heavy, wet hemorrhagic lungs, lungs with a lot of blood in them," said Dr. Gregory Schmunk. He said the official count of seven H1N1 deaths is inaccurate, but patient rights laws prohibit him from giving specific numbers.<br />
<br />
Autopsies - Wet Hemorrhagic lungs with a lot of blood in them - You think that is Ukraine? NO - It is Iowa in U.S.! ~ link ~ "I live just NW of Des Moines about 45 miles. There have been low flowing helicopters over my town for the past week. I got woke up about 3 am this morning by a low flying plane, I wasn't able to see what it was when I looked out." (Comment from a reader in this article.)<br />
<br />
Further UPDATE:<br />
<br />
Did we see a biotoxin 'lay-down' in the Ukraine [that killed and seriously injured almost 200,000] coupled with a Swine Flu A/H1N1 spraying [that caused a massive spike in Swine Flu illnesses that were not too bad in intensity/level of sickness, but amounted to about a million and a half people infected in a few days]?<br />
<br />
Is this false flag pandemic being used to lock-down the population for a war on Iran? Iran being a known Advanced BioWar "superpower". Is this supposed to keep the West from being a target for an Iranian Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD) Strategic Counter-Force attack based on bioterrorism, once Israel and/or the USA strikes at Iran? Of course, "they" are apt to use this to 'chip us'. Perhaps even planting a micro chip in us in the "vaccine" shot itself as some have recently suggested ~ link. IS THE VACCINE THE CHIPPING ....the actual surgical outpatient emplacement of a RFID micro chip in the so called "vaccine" ....is this not the actual Biblical MARK OF THE BEAST? Or is something else going on here?</blockquote>

1918 RBD D225G in Lung Cases in Ukraine and Norway<br />
Recombinomics Commentary 11:29<br />
November 21, 2009<br />
For the two 1918 HA variants, the South Carolina (SC) HA (with Asp190, Asp225) bound exclusively alpha2-6 receptors, while the New York (NY) variant, which differed only by one residue (Gly225), had mixed alpha2-6/alpha2-3 specificity, especially for sulfated oligosaccharides.<br />
<br />
The above description is from a paper analyzing receptor binding domain differences in sequences from the 1918 pandemic. The New York variant had D225G, the same change found in lung tissues from fatal swine H1N1 sequences in Brazil, Ukraine, and Norway. The above result clearly demonstrated a change in receptor specificity for D225G, which was present in A/New York/1/1918 and A/London/1/1919, demonstrating the same change I 1918 that has been described in 2009. Although WHO stated that this change was "not significant" in the Ukraine samples, it was associated with the fatal cases and is cause for concern. The concern was increased by the announcement from Norway indicating the same change was found in fatal H1N1 lung infections there also.<br />
<br />
Although there have been comments that this change was "spontaneous" and did not spread, the finding of the same change in all four deceased patients in Ukraine from two distinct locations, indicates it did spread, as did the finding of the same change in multiple cases in Brazil and Norway. Although the concept of "random mutation" has been used to explain away the sudden appearance of the same polymorphism on multiple backgrounds, the appearance via recombination is a much stronger argument for the same change to appear at multiple locations at the same time.<br />
<br />
The spontaneous mutation theory, which is the foundation of WHO policy and statements on significance of changes relies heavily on a "selection" component, arguing that the same change keeps appearing on different backgrounds because of string selection pressure. However, this same phenomenon was described for a silent mutation on H5N1, which offers no clear selection pressure. Similarly, a silent change was also found in seasonal H1N1 in sequences that had acquired the Tamiflu resistance marker, H274Y. Thus, these silent (synonymous) changes string argue against a coincidental spontaneous mutation, and instead argue that this acquisition is concurrently acquired because of a widespread common donor.<br />
<br />
The concept of acquisition via recombination has serious implications for the current pandemic. It was used to predict the D225G change, in part because the change was "in play" and appearing in July/August sequences at increasing frequency, even though the H1N1 sequences represented different genetic backgrounds. Similarly the clusters of Tamiflu resistance in Wales and North Carolina are also driven by recombination, as happened when the identical change was acquired in H1N1 seasonal flu in patients who were not taking Tamiflu (oseltamivir).<br />
<br />
Thus, the concept of recombination predicts that the D225G receptor binding domain change, and the H274Y Tamiflu resistance change, which continue to spread via recombination</blockquote>

Ukraine Dead Increase to 354 - Fatal H1N1 Cases Have D225G<br />
Recombinomics Commentary 14:05<br />

1,540,514 Influenza/ARI<br />
<br />
88,744 Hospitalized<br />
<br />
354 Dead<br />
<br />
The above numbers represent the latest figures from the Ukraine Ministry of Health. The increase in deaths is 10, which is lower than recent increases and more Oblasts have fallen below the epidemic threshold, but Live still leads in daily increases in cases (from 114,211 to 118,256) suggesting the outbreak has moved east (see map). Similarly, Kiev recorded the largest increase in fatalities (14 to 18).<br />
<br />
Recently, Mill Hill in London released sequences from 10 patients in Ukraine and most were in the areas hit hard at the beginning of the outbreak, Ternopil and Lviv. Four of the ten were sequences from deceased patients and all four had D225G, which was not present in the six HA sequences from patients who survived.<br />
<br />
This correlation between the receptor binding domain change, D225G and fatal cases is cause for concern, and recent reports describe large increases in cases and fatalities in Poland, raising concerns that this change has significantly spread to the west of western Ukraine also.</blockquote>

Prime Minister Tymoshenko stated, “We cannot relax even for a moment because the World Health Organization (WHO) predicts two more waves of flu, including the bird flu, are expected in Ukraine. There is no alternative to vaccination. The entire world is going this way…” A day earlier she admitted she was not vaccinated and that she prefers “like all other people” plans to rely on garlic, onion and lemon as a way of preventing the flu. Commenting on what’s going on in Eastern Europe F. William Engdahl says, “The degree of fraud, deceit, official cover-up and outright criminal endangerment of the broad population by the current Swine Flu hysteria is seemingly without precedent.”</blockquote>

Ukraine Dead Increase to 315 - Still No Sequences<br />
Recombinomics Commentary 19:17<br />
November 16, 2009<br />
1,400,999 Influenza/ARI<br />
<br />
78,326 Hospitalized<br />
<br />
315 Dead<br />
<br />
The above totals are from today's report from the Ukraine Ministry of Health. The increase of 16 fatalities was largely in areas with newer infections and now only 1 of the 27 regions, Luhansk, has not reported a death (see map). The largest jump in cases was in Kiev, with an increase of 4,964 cases to 104,154. The climb in patients who have been hospitalized to 78,326 suggests patients are being hospitalized and treated, but the number of deaths continue to increase at a rate of 16-26 per day.<br />
<br />
The steady increase in the number of fatalities continues to cause concerns of small genetic changes. WHO has not directly answered questions at news conferences, and the role of single nucleotide chnages changes in the high number of hemorrhagic fatalities remains unclear.<br />
<br />
Poland is now also reporting fatalities, although not at the level of Ukraine. However, there have been a significant number of fatalities in Belarus, raising concerns of spread.<br />
<br />
Release of the Ukraine sequences is long overdue.</blockquote>

Ukraine Dead Increase to 239 - Still No Sequences<br />

65.615 Hospitalizations<br />
<br />
239 Deaths<br />
<br />
The above numbers are from the latest update from the Ukraine Ministry of Health. The number of deaths increased 26 to 239, so 50 new deaths have been reported in the past 2 days. Although the virus continues to spread (only 5 of the 27 reporting areas have not topped the epidemic threshold) many of the deaths are still being reported from the hard hit areas in western Ukraine(see map). However, the biggest jump in cases was 6.096 in Kiev to 89,339.<br />
<br />
The steady increase in the high level of deaths continues to raise concerns about genetic changes in the H1N1. In this morning's press conference the WHO discussed the need for prompt treatment with Tamiflu, but did not address genetic changes in Ukraine. Only general statements on the stability of the H1N1 were made in response to questions on genetic changes in Ukraine. Today's conference is a week after the last comments on the Ukraine H1N1 sequences which indicated that there were no large changes, but an update would be forthcoming in a "few days". It has now been over a week and no updates on genetic changes have been forthcoming.<br />
<br />
The release of the sequences from Ukraine is long overdue.</blockquote>

A cocktail of three flu viruses are reported to have mutated into a single pneumonic plague, which it is believed may be far more dangerous than swine flu. The death toll has reached 189 and more than 1 million people have been infected, most of them in the nine regions of Western Ukraine.<br />
<br />
President of Ukraine Viktor Yushchenko has called in the World Health Organisation and a team of nine specialists are carrying out tests in Kiev and Lviv to identify the virus. Samples have been sent to London for analysis.<br />
<br />
President Yushchenko said: “People are dying. The epidemic is killing doctors. This is absolutely inconceivable in the 21st Century.”<br />
<br />
In a TV interview, the President added: “Unlike similar epidemics in other countries, three causes of serious viral infections came together simultaneously in Ukraine – two seasonal flus and the Californian flu<br />
<br />
“Virologists conclude that this combination of infections may produce an even more aggressive new virus as a result of mutation.”</blockquote>

<blockquote>
Evidence appears to suggest that Baxter International is responsible for a new deadly outbreak of viral pneumonia in Ukraine.<br />
<br />
In February of 2009 Bloomberg reported that Baxter “accidentally” send vaccine material containing both live Avian bird flu and seasonal influenza to multiple laboratories worldwide. A laboratory decided to test the vaccine on it’s ferrets, but the ferrets all unexpectedly died. It must be noted that Baxter has made a “mistake” like this before. Blood products produced by Baxter once containd HIV. Thousands of haemophiliacs died due to this, and many went on to infect their spouses.<br />
<br />
Later in the year, a bizarre story emerged on the internet. The Huffington Post reported on a a man named Joseph Moshe who was arrested after a hours long standoff with the police because he had supposedly made threats against the White House. The man was able to withstand multiple rounds of tear gas.<br />
<br />
However, the internet community was very skeptical of the true reasons behidn this man’s arrest. Comments on the Huffington Post website immediately began pouring in about an unreported side to this story, namely that Joseph Moshe was a Mossad Agent specialized in biological warfare who called into a radio show to warn people about a biological weapn that was being made by Baxter international that would be spread through vaccine and would cause a plague upon it’s release.<br />
<br />
Although anyone can make a doomsday claim and we should never believe anyone (and it must be said that the Truth movement handled this well, the message was spread without being proclaimed as gospel) the amazing part about Moshe’s claim was the location where Moshe said the biological weapon was being produced.<br />
<br />
Moshe claimed that Baxter’s laboratory in the Ukraine out of all places was creating this biological weapon. All of this came out in the beginning of August, which is more than 2 months before the situation that is currently unfolding. For Moshe to correctly name the country where a new epidemic would be unleashed, requires either inside information, or an incredible coincidence as anyone with a basic knowledge of statistics can confirm for himself.<br />
<br />
Let us assume for a moment that every person on our planet has an equal chance of giving rise to a new lethal epidemic due to a virus that mutates as it spreads through his body. The Ukraine has 46 million inhabitants. The current estimated global population is about 6.7 billion. This means that if a new epidemic were to arise, the chance of this epidemic starting in the Ukraine would be 0.69%. However, it appears that this virus is a form of flu. This makes the odds of being right when guessing that a deadly flu is going to break out in the Ukraine even smaller. The reason for this is that back in early August the vast majority of influenza infections were found in different countries than the Ukraine. In fact, on 30 Oktober, Earthtimes reported that Ukraine had officially reported only two cases of swine flu, and no deaths, until last Friday. This deadly epidemic appears to have arrived out of nowhere in the Ukraine.<br />
<br />
Moshe’s biomed profile appears to confirm his position as a microbiologist. Furthermore, this page with Baxter’s contact information for it’s Ukraine office confirms that Baxter has a presence in the Ukraine.<br />
<br />
It must also be noted that massive numbers of microbiologists have been dying bizarre deaths. This case of what appears to be a brave man who sacrificed it all to bring us this message may explain why so many microbiologists have been murdered. The fact that this man managed to predict an outbreak of highly lethal influenza in a place where we would least expect it, 2 months before it a actually occured, lends credence to his claim that Baxter International is responsible for the outbreak and shows that top microbiologists can pose a problem to the people responsible for this ongoing disaster.</blockquote>

Big difference between the treatment of this guy (and news coverage) -<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
OTTAWA (AFP) — A Canadian scientist has been arrested for smuggling 22 vials stolen from Canada's National Microbiology Lab, used in Ebola and HIV research, into the United States, Canadian and US officials said Wednesday.<br />
<br />
Konan Michel Yao, 42, "was taken into custody" while crossing the border from Manitoba province into the western US state of North Dakota on May 5, said a spokeswoman for the Public Health Agency of Canada, which operates the lab.<br />
<br />
According to US prosecutor Lynn Jordheim, Yao was detained for carrying unidentified biological materials in vials wrapped in aluminium foil inside a glove and packaged in a plastic bag, along with electrical wires, in the trunk of his car.<br />
<br />
Yao said in an affidavit he stole the vials, described as research vectors, from the Winnipeg lab on his last day of work there on January 21.<br />
<br />
He told US border guards he was taking them to his new job with the National Institutes of Health at the Biodefense Research Laboratory in Bethesda, Maryland.<br />
<br />
US authorities feared their contents could pose a terrorist threat. But tests later showed "they are not hazardous," said Jordheim.<br />
<br />
"This turned out not to be a terrorism-related case," he said by telephone from North Dakota. "It appears to be exactly as he (Yao) said. However, he still faces possible charges for smuggling the vials into the United States."<br />
<br />
Yao, meanwhile, remains in US custody after waiving his right to bail and preliminary hearings, as he awaits a possible grand jury indictment for smuggling, he said.<br />
<br />
A Public Health Agency of Canada spokeswoman told AFP Yao "was working on vaccines for the Ebola virus and HIV, among other things."<br />
<br />
"But he only had access to harmless and non-infectious materials, similar to what you'd find in a hospital or university lab. He did not have access to dangerous materials."<br />
<br />
The Ivory Coast-born scientist is said to have studied at Laval University in Quebec and briefly worked at the University of Manitoba's plant sciences department.</blockquote>

<blockquote>
Today, the MSM are not talking about this case any more. Yesterday, they wanted us to believe that Joseph Moshe was a nutcase and a terrorist, arrested for threatening to bomb the White House. Interesting detail about his arrest (the “Westwood standoff”) was that he seemed to be immune to the 5 cans of tear gas and 5 gallons of law-enforcement grade pepper spray they pumped into his face. He very calmly remained in his car, as the video footage of his arrest shows.<br />
<br />
Professor Moshe had called into a live radio show by Dr. A. True Ott, (explanation of Joseph Moshe’s call at 06:00) broadcast on Republic Broadcasting claiming to be a microbiologist who wanted to supply evidence to a States Attorney regarding tainted H1N1 Swine flu vaccines being produced by Baxter BioPharma Solutions. He said that Baxter’s Ukrainian lab was in fact producing a bioweapon disguised as a vaccine. He claimed that the vaccine contained an adjuvant (additive) designed to weaken the immune system, and replicated RNA from the virus responsible for the 1918 pandemic Spanish flu, causing global sickness and mass death.<br />
<br />
Sources tell us that Bar-Joseph Moshe made no threat against the President or the White House. He did not mention any bomb or attack. He then proceeded to inform the White House he intended to go public with this information. When he noticed men in suits in front of his house and feared that the FBI was about to detain him, he packed some belongings into his car and, him being a dual Israeli citizen, tried to reach the Israeli consulate located in close proximity to the federal building where the standoff took place. The FBI and the bomb squad prevented him from reaching it. Who is this man? His profile on biomedexperts.com says he is a plant disease expert with many publications on his name involving the genetic manipulation of virii. Photographic evidence that Moshe is who he says he is can be found here.<br />
<br />
Joseph Moshe was soon after his arrest sent or let go to Israel. Nothing has been heard from him since. The Secret Service was not the agency involved in the surveillance of Moshe at his home in California. This was done by the FBI, who had orders to detain or arrest him. Mounted on top of a large black vehicle used in his arrest was a microwave weapon that possibly damaged the electronics in Moshe’s car as well as any communication devices he had which might have been used to contact the media or others who could help him.<br />
<br />
Moshe did not suffer the same effects of the gas and pepper spray that others would have because he had built up an immunity to such weapons as a by-product of his Mossad training. Moshe was not handcuffed because he was not placed under arrest.<br />
<br />
Does this sound like an insane conspiracy theory? Sure it does. Due to the scarcity and anonimity of the sources we would dismiss it as exactly that, if it weren’t for some uncomfortable facts: Baxter Pharmaceutical has been caught, red-handed, in spreading a live, genetically engineered H5N1 Bird flu vaccine as a lethal biological weapon all over the world, destined to be used for human vaccinations. This happened just a few months ago. And only luck prevented a global catastrophe of epic proportions.<br />
<br />
Baxter International Inc. had mixed live, genetically engineered avian flue viruses in vaccine material shipped to 18 countries. Only by sheer luck, a Czech laboratory decided to test the vaccine on a dozen ferrets, which all died in days. The World Health Organization was notified and catastrophe was averted. This was clearly a deliberate act on Baxter’s part, because they adhere to BS3, bio-safety level three. Baxter admitted a “mistake”. Such monumental screwups are totally impossible at that level. Many safety systems would have needed to be sabotaged, many key personell would have needed to be bribed. It simply can’t be done without direction from the inside. They did not send out the wrong vial – they produced dozens of gallons of biological-weapon agent (genetically engineered live H5N1 / Bird flu virus), then sent it out as a “vaccine”.<br />
<br />
Baxter knew full well that their vaccine was lethal, because the year before they had tested it on a few hundred homeless Polish people – dozens died as a result.<br />
<br />
Where’s the meat? Well – Baxter is now being sued for the deliberate, repeated contamination of vaccines with biological weapons designed – by them – to mass-murder people. Here is the complaint (PDF). By some kook nutcase? Not likely – Jane Burgermeister is an experienced, respected journalist. She is not the only one suing Baxter for planning and executing a plan for global genocide: Others are filing complaints as well. Read a well-researched complaint here (PDF).<br />
<br />
Qui bono? We think it may be profit-motivated or even sheer incompetence, but for the conspiracy-minded: The latter complaint alludes to intentional “culling of the herd”. Have you heard of the Georgia Guidestones? An enormous monument loaded with Masonic symbolism costing millions of dollars, it has been erected by unknown, powerful elites (multimillionaires with the clout to erect monuments wherever they please, obviously) around 30 years ago. It gives an “alternative ten commandments”, of which the first is the extermination of six and a half billion people from the face of the Earth. Half a billion will remain. This is the number of people the planet can sustain indefinitely, so that the descendents of the Rothschilds and Rockefellers can live in peace and affluence indefinitely. Slaves are needed to produce that luxury, but 500 million will do just fine. But how does one go about killing off most of the world?<br />
<br />
“Vaccinating” the planet with a bioweapon with near-100% mortality would do the trick. Baxter would provide both the bioweapon as well as the vaccine against it to “civilized” Western peoples. Result: We can plunder Africa, we have no more competition from SE Asia, the oil is for our taking and only Western and perhaps Chinese sheeple remain.<br />
<br />
Rockefeller said this in 1994 at a U.N. dinner: “We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis, and the nations will accept the New World Order.” PNAC said something similar right before 9/11.</blockquote>

WHO "Whole-of-Society Pandemic Readiness Guidelines for Pandemic Preparedness and Response in the Non-Health Sectors"<br />
<br />
Prepared in April 2009, the same month Swine Flu was reported in Mexico, it was revised in July and now easily accessed coincidently with the Ukraine outbreak. Its aim is:<br />
<br />
"to prepare the whole of society, beyond the health sector, for pandemic influenza....including public and private sector organizations and essential services."<br />
<br />
The flucase.com says it "outlines how WHO will take over a country's essential services, including water and sanitation; fuel and energy; food; health care; telecommunications; finance; law and order; education; and transportation under the pretext of a pandemic emergency."<br />
<br />
The "guidelines" state:<br />
<br />
"National inter-ministerial pandemic preparedness committees should map out the central government's roles, responsibilities, and chain of command and designate lead agencies," answerable to the WHO that's perhaps enforceable during a "health emergency." It may work like this.<br />
<br />
Vaccine law attorney, Alan G. Phillips says:<br />
<br />
"....underlying laws.... allow states to mandate vaccines in an emergency....throw out exemptions, (and) impose quarantines and isolation outside of our homes."<br />
<br />
US laws are similar. They can mandate vaccinations and let states isolate and quarantine influenza victims if authorities call the disease infectious and life-threatening. Under the 2006 Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act, the HHS Secretary may declare any disease an epidemic or national emergency requiring mandatory vaccinations, quarantine, or other protective measures. It's a short step to empowering WHO with authority over most nations in short order.<br />
<br />
Its "guidelines" also want Defense Ministries to designate military assets to enforce vaccinations and quarantines under pandemic conditions. They also say:<br />
<br />
"Ministries of Justice should consider what legal processes could be suspended during the pandemic and make alternate plans to operate courts" while it continues.<br />
<br />
According to theflucase.com:<br />
<br />
"leaked (French) documents show that the Minister of Justice has ordered the suspension of the most basic rights, and people can be incarcerated for up to six months without having to appear before a judge in a pandemic emergency."<br />
<br />
Might America and other nations order similar measures under a "pandemic emergency," real or bogus.<br />

Internal 2006 IBM Document Reveals Advance Knowledge of a Planned Pandemic<br />
<br />
Titled, "Services & Global Procurement pan IOT Europe, Pandemic Plan Overview," it was distributed to upper-level management in France. It predicted a "100% chance (of a) planned (pandemic) occurring within the next 5 years," covering quarantines and operational procedures to be taken after an official WTO announcement. This document suggests what many believe - that governments and the drug cartel, in collusion with the WTO, orchestrated the current crisis, choosing Ukraine as the lead target. The situation there deserves close monitoring because of what may happen globally.<br />
<br />
Advance Pandemic Warning and Early Preparations<br />
<br />
Replikins, Ltd. is a small Boston-based biotech firm that "develops and markets....predictive products and vaccines....based upon the company's discovery of Replikins, a new group of peptides related to the rapid replication function in viral and other diseases (capable of) predicting the emergence of virulent strains of particular diseases."<br />
<br />
On April 7, 2008, a year before the reported Mexican H1N1 outbreak, it published a "FluForecast" stating the following:<br />
<br />
"Replikins, Ltd. has found that the Replikin Count of the H1N1 strain of influenza virus has recently increased to 7.6 (plus/minus 1.4), its highest level since the 1918 H1N1 pandemic....A rising Replikin Count of a particular influenza strain, indicating the rapid replication of the virus, is an early warning which has been followed consistently by an outbreak of a specific strain. The current increase appears to be specific to H1N1; there was a concurrent 80% decline in the Replikin Count of (seasonal) H3N2, for instance."<br />
<br />
"The current H1N1 appears to be rapidly replicating simultaneously in the US and Austria....However, the same virus replikin structures detected by FluForecast software in all three previous pandemics, namely 1918 H1N1, 1957 H2N2, and 1968 H3N2, as well as in H5N1 (Avian Flu), have not yet been detected in the currently evolving H1N1."<br />
<br />
In an October 24, 2007 press release, the US Treasury Department discussed the "preliminary results of the industry-wide pandemic flu exercise....More than 2,700 organizations registered to participate anonymously (which) began in September and ran for three weeks." Involved were banks, insurance companies, securities firms and exchanges, and state and federal regulators.<br />
<br />
"The exercise simulated a pandemic wave with a peak absenteeism rate of 49 percent....President Bush directed Treasury in May 2006 to coordinate with the banking and finance sector to better prepare its response to a pandemic crisis."<br />
<br />
On December 12, 2007, FEMA Region I (for New England) hosted a joint federal-state exercise "to strengthen contingency plans for an influenza pandemic. Operation PANEX 07 is the first functional exercise of its type in this country designed to determine best practices for a coordinated multi-agency response to an outbreak."<br />
<br />
Participating agencies included the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Health and Human Services (HHS), and Defense (DOD) "in partnership with their counterparts in the six New England states."<br />
<br />
On July 28, 2009, CNN reported that the Pentagon will "establish regional teams of military personnel to assist civilian authorities in the event of a significant outbreak of the H1N1 virus this fall, according to Defense Department officials....The plan calls for military task forces to work in conjunction with (FEMA)."<br />
<br />
Consider the implications. On October 23, Obama declared a H1N1 national emergency. The Pentagon will be in charge if conditions warrant it. Civil liberties may be suspended. Martial law may be declared. Mandatory toxic, dangerous vaccinations may be ordered, known to cause auto immune diseases ranging from annoying to debilitating to life-theatening. The situation in Ukraine bears watching. It may signal what's soon heading everywhere.<br />

<blockquote>
Evidence appears to suggest that Baxter International may be responsible for a new deadly outbreak of viral pneumonia in Ukraine.<br />
<br />
(http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=newsarchive&sid=aTo3LbhcA75I) In February of 2009, Bloomberg reported that Baxter “accidentally” sent vaccine material containing both live Avian bird flu and seasonal influenza to multiple laboratories worldwide. A laboratory decided to test the vaccine on its ferrets and the ferrets all unexpectedly died.<br />
<br />
(http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=newsarchive&sid=aTo3LbhcA75I) http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=newsarchive&sid=aTo3LbhcA75I<br />
<br />
It must be noted that Baxter has made a “mistake” like this before. (http://www.aegis.com/news/re/1996/RE960283.html) Blood products produced by Baxter once containd HIV. Thousands of haemophiliacs died due to this, and many went on to infect their spouses.<br />
<br />
http://www.aegis.com/news/re/1996/RE960283.html<br />
<br />
Later in the year, a bizarre story emerged on the internet. The news was full of reports on (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/08/14/man-suspected-of-making-t_n_259330.html) a man named Joseph Moshe who was arrested after a hours long standoff with the police because he had supposedly made threats against the White House. The man was able to withstand multiple rounds of tear gas…which left L.A. police officers amazed.<br />
<br />
However, the internet community was very skeptical of the true reasons behind the man’s arrest. Comments on the Huffington Post website immediately began pouring in about an unreported side to this story, namely that Joseph Moshe was a Mossad Agent who specialized in biological warfare and who called into a radio show to warn people about a biological weapn that was being made by Baxter international that would be spread through vaccine and would cause a plague upon its release.<br />
<br />
Although anyone can make a doomsday claim and we should never believe anyone (and it must be said that the Truth movement handled this well, the message was spread without being proclaimed as gospel) the amazing part about Moshe’s claim was the location where Moshe said the biological weapon was being produced.<br />
<br />
Moshe claimed that Baxter’s laboratory in the Ukraine out of all places was creating this biological weapon. All of this came out in the beginning of August, which is more than 2 months before the situation that is currently unfolding. For Moshe to correctly name the country where a new epidemic would be unleashed, requires either inside information, or an incredible coincidence as anyone with a basic knowledge of statistics can confirm for himself.</blockquote>

<blockquote>
On October 29, the Australian web site zik.com.ua reported that:<br />
<br />
"Western Ukraine was hit by a severe epidemic of unidentified influenza, tentatively diagnosed by doctors as viral pneumonia. The number of dead has climbed dramatically. Doctors advise Western Ukrainians to stay home and use preventive medicine."<br />
<br />
On October 30, Jane Burgermeister's theflu.com reported that:<br />
<br />
"More than 30 people have died in the Ukraine as a result of a mysterious new virus that has an affinity for the lungs," according to Swiss reports. Ukraine's Health Ministry said the virus' origin is unknown and showed "no signs of mutating to become more virulent." So far, 40,000 people were reported sick and 951 hospitalized.<br />
<br />
On October 30, healthfreedomalliance.org reported that Ukraine's Health Minister, Vasyl Knyazevych, said two laboratories diagnosed 11 of 33 samples tested as "highly influenza A/H1N1." As a result, he considered declaring a nationwide quarantine, even though western areas alone were affected.<br />
<br />
Since October 19, 30 deaths, including one child, from "acute respiratory infections," were reported, at first called SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome, a serious form of pneumonia caused by a virus). Influenza A virus affects birds and some mammals like pigs.<br />
WTO Fear Mongering<br />
<br />
The WTO says Swine Flu is similar to seasonal strains. Most cases are mild, and many people recover unaided. Yet it called the virus "unstoppable" and, on June 11, declared its highest phase 6 alert, saying: "The world is now at the start of the 2009 influenza pandemic." On July 13, it stopped just short of mandating mass vaccinations to halt the pandemic's spread.<br />
<br />
On its November 1 "Pandemic (H1N1) 2009" update, it said "more than 199 countries and overseas territories/communities have reported laboratory confirmed cases of pandemic influenza H1N1 2009, including over 6,000 deaths."<br />
<br />
On November 3, it reported the outbreak in Ukraine, "confirmed (as) H1N1 (based on) samples taken from patients in two of the most affected regions," and concluded that "most (Ukraine influenza) cases are caused by the H1N1 virus.<br />
<br />
Infectious disease expert, Dr. Donald Lau, disagrees, saying:<br />
<br />
"The statistical probability of this being the same H1N1 virus (is) infinitesimally small." He believes a highly virulent new strain is to blame. Public health authority, Dr. Leonard G. Horowitz sees a deadly connection between governments and the drug cartel over dangerous, toxic vaccines. On You Tube, he recently warned that:<br />
<br />
"These vaccinations contain highly unstable viruses that easily mutate, because they are 'live active' laboratory mutants that are being administered....People shed these 'live' viruses up to three weeks following vaccination. That means if you haven't been vaccinated, and you get near someone who has and then sneezes, you can get their H1N1 laboratory infection."<br />
<br />
He explained that anyone contracting H1N1, from vaccinations or other Swine Flu-infected persons, risks combining it with other internal or environmental viruses, creating a lethal mix that can kill. He expressed great concern about vaccines used to transmit dangerous viruses, capable of mutating into deadly ones, believes this may be happening in Ukraine, and thinks America and other nations may be next.<br />
Ukraine Reports of Overhead Aerosol Spraying<br />
<br />
On October 31, Kiev newspaper editors got dozens of calls about light planes doing aerosol spraying during the day. In refuting the claims, the district's Emergency Response office said "no permission had been granted for small aviation aircraft to fly within the city limits." Yet eye-witness accounts from Lviv, Ternopil, and other Ukraine cities said the same thing.<br />
<br />
On November 8, the South African web site fto.co.za reported that last June 26:<br />
<br />
"Suspicious aircraft were forced to land. A US operated (Russian-made long-range heavy transport) AN-124 changed its call sign from civilian to military which then triggered a response from the IAF (Indian Air Force) upon entering Pakistani air space (forcing) the plane to land in Mumbai while (a) second one was forced down by Nigerian fighter jets that also arrested the crew."<br />
<br />
"According to reports, China's People's Liberation Army Air Force contacted the Indian and Nigerian intelligence officials about the presence of these US operated Ukrainian aircraft amidst growing concern that the United States was spreading 'biological agents' in the Earth's atmosphere, which some Chinese officials believed to be an attempt to (commit) mass genocide via the spread of H1N1 swine flu."<br />
<br />
These aircraft "were carrying 'waste disposal' systems that could spray up to 45,000kg (nearly 100,000 pounds) of aerial type mist from sophisticated....nano pipes" in the planes' wings - called chemtrails.<br />
<br />
"Then last week, (aircraft) sprayed (an unknown) substance over Ukraine days before the (mysterious) plague outbreak."<br />
<br />
Quarantine and Martial Law Declared<br />
<br />
On October 30, president Viktor Yushchenko quarantined nine regions, ordered mobile military hospitals established throughout the country, and was expected to declare martial law. Reports from western Ukraine said a "severe outbreak of UNIDENTIFIED Influenza, (is) suspected by doctors to be a form of viral pneumonia."<br />
<br />
On November 4, in a nationwide address, Yushchenko cited:<br />
<br />
* an "emergency epidemic situation in the country," caused by "infections of viral origin, including A/H1N1 flu (that are) rapidly spreading across Ukraine;"<br />
* "People are dying; the epidemic is killing doctors;"<br />
* "three pathogens of viral infections came to Ukraine at the same time: two of them are seasonal flu and the third is the A/H1N1; according to virologists, such a combination of infections due to mutation may produce a new, even more aggressive virus;"<br />
* "It is generally known that the only way to prevent any infection is vaccination;" Dr. Viera Scheibner, the world's foremost vaccine expert, calls it the worst way as vaccines often cause the diseases they're designed to prevent;<br />
* "in early October," it was known that "viral infections in the west of the country" were spreading;<br />
* "The current Constitution after alterations in 2004 makes the Government solely responsible for conducting state healthcare policy....(by) my decree I put" the National Security and Defense Council (in charge) of decision-making;"<br />
* "Failure to comply with its orders will immediately result in application to the law enforcement authorities."<br />
<br />
In other words, Yushchenko declared martial law. He also ordered a crackdown on political protests, the arrest of public health officials opposed to mass Swine Flu vaccinations and quarantines, arrests of anyone not complying, and a ban on all infection medicines except Swine Flu vaccines.<br />
<br />
By November 6, Deputy Health Minister, Zinovy Mytnyk, said "633,877 people (were) suffering from flu and acute respiratory infections," and "95" had died.<br />
<br />
On November 7, healthfreedomalliance.org updated the totals to "871,037 Influenza/ARI (acute respiratory infection) cases, 39,603 hospitalized, and 135 deaths, and asked if Baxter released a bioweapon in Ukraine, saying "Evidence appears to suggest" it. It cited a February 24 bloomberg.com report that "Baxter Sent Bird Flu Virus to European Labs by Error (containing) contaminated (virus) samples...."<br />
<br />
The problem was discovered when inoculated ferrets in a Czech lab died. Austrian health minister, Sigrid Rosenberger, confirmed that Baxter supplied batches "infected with a bird flu virus." Company spokesperson, Christopher Bona, blamed "human error." Others were skeptical, including Austrian journalist Jane Burgermeister.<br />
<br />
On June 10, she filed sweeping criminal charges with the FBI in addition to earlier April 8 ones with the Vienna State Prosecutor's Office against Baxter AG, Baxter International and Avir Green Hill Biotechnology AG, "for manufacturing, disseminating, and releasing a biological weapon of mass destruction on Austrian soil between December 2008 and February 2009 with the intention of causing a global bird flu pandemic virus and of intending to profit from that same pandemic in an act that violates laws on international organised crime and genocide."<br />
<br />
Baxter operates Biosafety Level 3 (BLS-3) labs that take strict precautions to assure against accidental H3N2 (human influenza) and H5N1 (bird flu) co-mingling contamination. Letting it happen suggests something more nefarious than an accident.<br />
<br />
BLS-3 personnel are trained in handling pathogenic and potentially lethal agents and are supervised by competent, experienced scientists. In addition, these labs have specially engineered design features for added safety.<br />
<br />
By combining H3N2 and H5N1 viruses, "Baxter produced a highly dangerous biological weapon with a 63 per cent mortality rate. The H5N1 virus is restricted in its human-to-human transmissibility, especially because it is less airborne."<br />
<br />
"However when....combined with seasonal flu viruses (easily transmitted by air), a new flu virus is created which is unknown to the human immune system and which will have a severe impact on an unprotected population. A deadly virus of this kind could spread around the world in a short time and (potentially) infect millions (or) even billions of people."<br />
<br />
Baxter (via Avir) "distributed (72 kilos of) contaminated (live bird flu) vaccines using false concealment and false labels to 16 laboratories in Austria and....other countries at the end of January/beginning of February, potentially infecting at least 36-37 laboratory staff, who (were) treated preventively for bird flu and ordinary flu." On the same day, 18 Avir employees were as well at Vienna's Otto Wagner Hospital.<br />
<br />
Burgermeister cited a Baxter-Avir 2006 contract with Austria's Health Ministry for 16 million vaccine doses in case a bird flu pandemic was declared. This "laboratory incident shows that national and international authorities are not able to fulfill their obligations to ensure the safety of the Austrian people," and indicates they engaged in a cover-up.<br />
<br />
"If a pharmaceutical company can breach laws - and almost trigger a bird flu pandemic, which (potentially could spread worldwide) - without being made accountable for it....then there is, de facto, no rule of law on Austrian territory."<br />
<br />
She also contends that Baxter's production system, "namely, the use of 1200 liter bioreactors and vero cell technology," meets "the technical criteria to be classified as a secret dual purpose large-scale bioweapon production facility (able to produce) a huge amount of contaminated vaccine material....rapidly."<br />
<br />
"If (this) material were added to the 1200 liter bioreactors, it would replicate and infect the entire batch of vaccine material in (it). Contaminated material could (then) be distributed among sections of the population using false labels and secretly marked batches (able to) infect millions of people."<br />
<br />
Burgermeister accused high-level Austrian Health and other Ministry officials of knowledge and support of this practice. Otherwise, controls would have prevented it. In June, she named drug producers Baxter, Novartis and Sanofi Aventis; world agencies, including the WHO, UN, and CDC; and high-level officials in Austria, other European countries, and America.<br />
Did Baxter Release a Bioweapon in Ukraine?<br />
<br />
Baxter has a facility in Ukraine. Given the above evidence, it may be behind the current outbreak. A November 1 David Rothscum infowars.com article headlined: "Has Baxter International released a biological weapon," in citing an earlier Huffington Post report on a man named Joseph Moshe, a Mossad biological warfare expert. True or not, he warned, on an August radio program, about "a biological weapon....being made by Baxter International('s Ukraine facility) that would be spread through vaccine and would cause a plague upon its release." Having reported this two months before the outbreak lends credence to his story.<br />
<br />
In August, Ukraine was almost influenza free. On October 30, earthtimes.org said only two cases of Swine Flu had been reported. According to fto.co.za, on March 26, reports were that "thousands of Ukrainians refused" to be vaccinated, because of fears about "diphtheria, mumps, polio, hepatitis B, tuberculosis, (and) whooping cough among others. Health officials said (this) could lead to disease outbreaks...." Perhaps unleashing a "biological weapon" is how to convince them and millions elsewhere.<br />
<br />
Rothscum confirmed Moshe's credentials, noting that "massive numbers of microbiologists have been dying bizarre deaths." Among them:<br />
<br />
* Stephen Lagakos, Professor of Biostatistics and AIDS researcher at Harvard's School of Public Health, died in an October auto collision;<br />
* Malcolm Casadaban, reknown molecular geneticist, died of plague in September;<br />
* Wallace Pannier, noted germ warfare scientist, died in August of respiratory failure;<br />
* August "Gus" Watanabe, former Eli Lilly and Company Executive Vice President of Science and Technology and former head of its Research Laboratories, died of apparent self-inflicted wounds from a .38-caliber handgun; a note left behind cited depression over his daughter's death;<br />
* Caroline Coffey, Cornell University post-doctoral biomedicine researcher, died in June from massive cuts to her throat; and<br />
* Nasser Talebzadeh Ordoubadi, a Mind-Body-Quantum medicine pioneer and discoverer of an antitoxin treatment for bioweapons, died in February of "suspicious" causes.<br />
<br />
On November 7, theflucase.com asked:<br />
<br />
Is the Ukraine outbreak "the plague? A mutated virus? Or is the plague the cover for introducing a mutated virus?" Citing the South African web site fto.co.za., it wondered if the Ukraine Swine Flu strain "might have mutated (to) pneumonic plague."<br />
<br />
It reported Ukraine's Deputy Minister of Health saying his nation has a different H1N1 strain than the rest of the world because of how many were infected so fast. Other officials disagree and suggest this one may have mutated to something else because it "has a much bigger rate of filling the lungs with blood....The plague or virus in the Ukraine has 10 times the mortality rate (attributed to) normal swine flu."<br />
<br />
However, unconfirmed reports are that "people are going on as normal....they also say this is fear mongering" to promote voluntary vaccinations. "Everyone is waiting for the gene sequences which will confirm whether this has been hyped up, a real mutated H1N1, or just bad (Ukraine) health services." Perhaps exaggerated illness and death reports to stoke fear and be a pretext for what followed.<br />
<br />
Ukraine is now under martial law. Civil liberties are suspended. By government edict, anyone may be criminally prosecuted. Scheduled January elections may be delayed or cancelled. Public demonstrations are banned. Political opponents are prohibited from traveling in quarantined areas. Borders are partially closed. Mandated vaccinations are coming. WHO fear-mongering is hyping the danger. A month before the outbreak, it took part in a bioterrorism plague exercise. On November 7, Lake of the Hills, IL police conducted their own against pneumonic plague as part of the McHenry County Department of Health's emergency planning.<br />
<br />
Burgermeister suggests that Baxter, the:<br />
<br />
"WTO and the international corporate crime syndicate that funds them may have decided they could go ahead with their plan to trigger a pandemic in Europe and the USA because the public awareness of the dangers of the vaccine has become too great, not least as a result of WHO and Baxter being caught contaminating 72 kilos of vaccine material with the live bird flu virus in February."<br />
<br />
On November 6, innworldreport.net headlined, "Pneumonic Plague Outbreak in China Follows Outbreak in Ukraine." The town of Ziketan (population 10,000) reported two deaths and a dozen others infected. The "area inside a 17-mile radius" was quarantined to contain it. The "highly contagious disease, one of the most virulent and deadly diseases on earth, (is) usually fatal within 24 hours. It attacks the lungs and kills nearly everyone who catches it unless treated rapidly with antibiotics."<br />
<br />
On the same day, Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko called the panic over Swine Flu artificially created by drug companies. He urged people not to panic, and said authorities are monitoring the situation in neighboring Ukraine. Ten deaths were reported in the Minsk, "preceded by flu-like symptoms."<br />
<br />
Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty disseminates US propaganda in 20 countries, including Russia, Ukraine, Iran, Iraq, and Afghanistan. On November 4, it headlined, "Swine Flu Fears Spread from Ukraine to Afghanistan," then reported, true or false, incidences showing up in Iran, Belarus, Turkmenistan, Serbia, and other Balkan countries. "Afghanistan has declared a nationwide public health emergency and closed all educational institutes for three weeks."<br />
<br />
On November 2, the Chinese web site sina.com reported that authorities in a southeast Bulgarian district declared an A/H1N1 epidemic, according to local media accounts. The "sick rate" rose "to 200 per 10,000 people," and in some towns is approaching epidemic levels. A later report said 210 per 10,000. Two deaths were reported, and Bulgaria's chief health expert, Tencho Tenev, said "at least two million Bulgarians, or 30 percent of (the) population, could become infected with the flu virus over the coming months."<br />
<br />
On November 9, thebirdflupandemic.com headlined, "Russia, Belarus and Bulgaria On The Verge Of A Flu Epidemic As Cases In Ukraine Near 1 Million."<br />
<br />
Same day Ukraine reports said 1,031,597 people are sick with flu-like symptoms, 52,742 have been hospitalized, and 174 people have died. On November 6, Russia's Chief Health Official, Gennady Onishchenko, said most regions in the country "are on the verge of a flu epidemic."<br />
<br />
"Disturbing reports are beginning to surface in western Europe. In Austria, special army units based in Korneuburg (where Baxter's facilities are located), have been conducting pandemic emergency exercises and quarantining patients in hospitals. Are they expecting something to happen?"<br />
<br />
WHO "Whole-of-Society Pandemic Readiness Guidelines for Pandemic Preparedness and Response in the Non-Health Sectors"<br />
<br />
Prepared in April 2009, the same month Swine Flu was reported in Mexico, it was revised in July and now easily accessed coincidently with the Ukraine outbreak. Its aim is:<br />
<br />
"to prepare the whole of society, beyond the health sector, for pandemic influenza....including public and private sector organizations and essential services."<br />
<br />
The flucase.com says it "outlines how WHO will take over a country's essential services, including water and sanitation; fuel and energy; food; health care; telecommunications; finance; law and order; education; and transportation under the pretext of a pandemic emergency."<br />
<br />
The "guidelines" state:<br />
<br />
"National inter-ministerial pandemic preparedness committees should map out the central government's roles, responsibilities, and chain of command and designate lead agencies," answerable to the WHO that's perhaps enforceable during a "health emergency." It may work like this.<br />
<br />
Vaccine law attorney, Alan G. Phillips says:<br />
<br />
"....underlying laws.... allow states to mandate vaccines in an emergency....throw out exemptions, (and) impose quarantines and isolation outside of our homes."<br />
<br />
US laws are similar. They can mandate vaccinations and let states isolate and quarantine influenza victims if authorities call the disease infectious and life-threatening. Under the 2006 Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act, the HHS Secretary may declare any disease an epidemic or national emergency requiring mandatory vaccinations, quarantine, or other protective measures. It's a short step to empowering WHO with authority over most nations in short order.<br />
<br />
Its "guidelines" also want Defense Ministries to designate military assets to enforce vaccinations and quarantines under pandemic conditions. They also say:<br />
<br />
"Ministries of Justice should consider what legal processes could be suspended during the pandemic and make alternate plans to operate courts" while it continues.<br />
<br />
According to theflucase.com:<br />
<br />
"leaked (French) documents show that the Minister of Justice has ordered the suspension of the most basic rights, and people can be incarcerated for up to six months without having to appear before a judge in a pandemic emergency."<br />
<br />
Might America and other nations order similar measures under a "pandemic emergency," real or bogus.<br />

Internal 2006 IBM Document Reveals Advance Knowledge of a Planned Pandemic<br />

Titled, "Services & Global Procurement pan IOT Europe, Pandemic Plan Overview," it was distributed to upper-level management in France. It predicted a "100% chance (of a) planned (pandemic) occurring within the next 5 years," covering quarantines and operational procedures to be taken after an official WTO announcement. This document suggests what many believe - that governments and the drug cartel, in collusion with the WTO, orchestrated the current crisis, choosing Ukraine as the lead target. The situation there deserves close monitoring because of what may happen globally.<br />
Advance Pandemic Warning and Early Preparations<br />
<br />
Replikins, Ltd. is a small Boston-based biotech firm that "develops and markets....predictive products and vaccines....based upon the company's discovery of Replikins, a new group of peptides related to the rapid replication function in viral and other diseases (capable of) predicting the emergence of virulent strains of particular diseases."<br />
<br />
On April 7, 2008, a year before the reported Mexican H1N1 outbreak, it published a "FluForecast" stating the following:<br />
<br />
"Replikins, Ltd. has found that the Replikin Count of the H1N1 strain of influenza virus has recently increased to 7.6 (plus/minus 1.4), its highest level since the 1918 H1N1 pandemic....A rising Replikin Count of a particular influenza strain, indicating the rapid replication of the virus, is an early warning which has been followed consistently by an outbreak of a specific strain. The current increase appears to be specific to H1N1; there was a concurrent 80% decline in the Replikin Count of (seasonal) H3N2, for instance."<br />
<br />
"The current H1N1 appears to be rapidly replicating simultaneously in the US and Austria....However, the same virus replikin structures detected by FluForecast software in all three previous pandemics, namely 1918 H1N1, 1957 H2N2, and 1968 H3N2, as well as in H5N1 (Avian Flu), have not yet been detected in the currently evolving H1N1."<br />
<br />
In an October 24, 2007 press release, the US Treasury Department discussed the "preliminary results of the industry-wide pandemic flu exercise....More than 2,700 organizations registered to participate anonymously (which) began in September and ran for three weeks." Involved were banks, insurance companies, securities firms and exchanges, and state and federal regulators.<br />
<br />
"The exercise simulated a pandemic wave with a peak absenteeism rate of 49 percent....President Bush directed Treasury in May 2006 to coordinate with the banking and finance sector to better prepare its response to a pandemic crisis."<br />
<br />
On December 12, 2007, FEMA Region I (for New England) hosted a joint federal-state exercise "to strengthen contingency plans for an influenza pandemic. Operation PANEX 07 is the first functional exercise of its type in this country designed to determine best practices for a coordinated multi-agency response to an outbreak."<br />
<br />
Participating agencies included the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Health and Human Services (HHS), and Defense (DOD) "in partnership with their counterparts in the six New England states."<br />
<br />
On July 28, 2009, CNN reported that the Pentagon will "establish regional teams of military personnel to assist civilian authorities in the event of a significant outbreak of the H1N1 virus this fall, according to Defense Department officials....The plan calls for military task forces to work in conjunction with (FEMA)."<br />
<br />
Consider the implications. On October 23, Obama declared a H1N1 national emergency. The Pentagon will be in charge if conditions warrant it. Civil liberties may be suspended. Martial law may be declared. Mandatory toxic, dangerous vaccinations may be ordered, known to cause auto immune diseases ranging from annoying to debilitating to life-theatening. The situation in Ukraine bears watching. It may signal what's soon heading everywhere.</blockquote>

With wild rumors circulating across the internet on the nature of the flu strain raging in the Ukraine, a team of British scientists having begun testing the 'super flu' that has been responsible for 189 deaths across the country.<br />
<br />
As conspiracy theories and collusion rumors go, the H1N1 swine flu outbreak in the Ukraine provided the right amount of juice to keep the web presses running. At its peak, there were reports of suspected hemorrhagic pneumonia as the core symptom of a mysterious new virus in the country.<br />
<br />
The Ukraine rumors caught on and were coupled with reports of overhead aerosol spraying in Kiev just prior to the outbreak and leading many to believe that the population was intentionally infected with a powerful biological agent.<br />
<br />
The World Health Organization responded to the crisis and the resulting rumors, visiting with health officials in the Ukraine. After assessing the situation on the ground, WHO officials have now begun suggesting that anti-viral drugs be administered earlier to help prevent swine flu deaths.<br />
<br />
Despite WHO assurances that the epidemic in the Ukraine was indeed badly-managed H1N1 swine flu, a team of British scientists is now testing samples to see if this may be the beginning of a dreaded mutation in the H1N1 virus. A more virulent mutation would be a repeat of history, as the 1918 H1N1 influenza demonstrated a disturbingly similar pattern of mild introduction.<br />
<br />
"Unlike similar epidemics in other countries, three causes of serious viral infections came together simultaneously in Ukraine: two seasonal flus and the Californian flu," Ukraine President Yushchenko said in a television interview. "Virologists conclude that this combination of infections may produce an even more aggressive new virus as a result of mutation."<br />
<br />
The British scientists confirmed that they do not yet have enough samples to determine the nature or strain of the Ukraine virus.<br />
<br />
"We do not have a time scale for the results of the tests, although some preliminary results have been obtained. I cannot tell you what they are, " a spokesperson told the Daily Mail. "We did not have enough of the virus samples so we will have to grow some more before we can come to a conclusive decision about its nature."</blockquote>

<blockquote>
Kiev, Ukraine - Authorities in the town of Kiev, Ukraine denied any spraying of "aerosolized medication" by aircraft over the city. This after it was reported that light aircrafts were seen flying over the forest market area that sprayed a aerosol substance to fight h1n1 or swine flu.<br />
<br />
5 Sources confirms this and the local newspapers of Kiev also received hundreds of phone calls from residents and business owners close to the area the planes were spraying the suspicious substance. Not only that but local businesses and retailers were "advised" to stay indoors during the day by the local authorities.<br />
<br />
As if that is not enough, the government authorities also pushed the radio stations in Kiev to deny the reports. Online on forums, websites and blogs reports came in about eye witness accounts that confirms this. There was also reports of helicopters spraying aerosols over Kiev, Lviv, Ternopil and throughout Ukraine.</blockquote>

‘A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal.’ – Ted Turner to Audubon Magazine, 1996<br />
<br />
On October 30th,”2009 editors of local papers in Kyiv, Ukraine received a flood of phone calls from citizens reporting low flying aircraft spraying an unknown aerosolized substance over L’viv, Ternopil and other cities. On October 27th”the Ukrainian media broke the story that on October 26th”in Ternopil an unknown flu had killed seven people , and that over the past few days about 6 thousand people had sought out medical attention in regards to flu like symptoms. From this first report through to the 9th”of November over 1 million people inside the Ukraine people have contracted some form of flu like illness. This is almost double the number of ‘confirmed’ H1N1 cases worldwide in all other countries. There have also been over 155 deaths reported due to influenza during this time. This outbreak is unprecedented yet it has received minimal coverage in the western media. It just seemed to get lost amidst all of the swine flu coverage, and written off as just more cases of H1N1 before any lab samples had been processed. In the Ukrainian and”Russian media however the outbreak has been treated more seriously and has been referred to as ‘pneumonic plague’. On October 29th”a report came out of Ukraine describing the deaths of 6 young people in the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast. After the autopsies were performed it was recorded that the cause of death in these individuals was “severe hemorrhagic pneumonia”. Also unconfirmed reports from bloggers in the Western Ukraine that doctors were seeing that this was a new form a flu that killed much faster than the regular H1N1 virus. “Soon Ukrainians started to panic, and the stores emptied of masks and all forms of flu medication. Even onions, garlic, and lemons became scarce in so me cities. As a countermeasure to this outbreak 9 Oblasts (cities) were placed under quarantine by the government. The WHO sent a team of experts to take samples of this new flu and send them back to the Mill Hill lab in London to determine the gene sequences of this flu, and to discover if this was in fact the same Californian/Mexican A/H1N1 virus. “On November 3rd”the WHO announced that the samples had been received at Mill Hill, yet almost a week later there have been no reports issued and no gene sequence data released. If these were typical samples it seems that an announcement would have been made already. “The silence is deafening. It should also be noted that rumors of the doctors being told not to disseminate any information about the new flu cases that would incite any panic, were later confirmed by statements made by the Ukrainian government that police have been told to confiscate hospital reports on patients who have recently contracted the flu.” All things considered, it would not be a surprise if this unidentified virus turned out to be far more serious than the mild A/H1N1 circulating the globe.<br />
<br />
Two unconfirmed reports, one in 2002 and one in 2009 by alleged government insiders revealed that at some point that live 1918 Spanish flu would be released on a large scale in the form of a vaccine, for the purpose of mass genocide. The August 2009 report by Joseph Moshe revealed that he was involved with Baxter in a plan to release the 1918 virus in the Ukraine. Not only was it confirmed that he was a microbiologist, his claim was also substantiated by the current Ukrainian outbreak. After a number of deaths in September the Ukrainian government”banned the use of the H1N1 vaccine. This would make it quite difficult to release the 1918 virus as described by Joseph Moshe.” It now seems as though the vaccine ban will be lifted and h1n1 vaccines will be forced on the people of Ukraine. “On November 9th”the”Globe and Mail“published a story that revealed, despite”previous claims“by the Ukrainian Government that they had not authorized the use of aerosolized medication on the public as a response to the outbreak, that they in fact “sprayed the city with the necessary products”.” Was this in fact medication or disinfectant? If so why would the government deny this? “Was the spraying in fact a release of the mystery flu? Was the original intention to release it via the vaccine? Was the aerosol release the plan B after the Ukrainian government banned the use of the vaccine? A blog post from a Lviv resident claimed that his mother who works for the city council received a text message the night of Oct 29th from a colleague warning her to keep her windows closed as something was to be sprayed. The context wasn’t crystal clear. It could have been a warning regarding a street disinfecting procedure as is often done during typhoid outbreaks. The government’s denial is not irrefutable proof of a bio-attack, but it is suspicious.<br />
<br />
As reported by SkyWatch Canada on September 15th , the frequency of low flying aircraft with unusual flight patterns have caught the attention of Canadians living in the Nation’s Capital. Is there a chance that Canadians are being acclimated to these types of flight patterns for a future bio-release ? In 1994 such an event took place in the town of Oakville, Washington where there were confirmed reports of a clear gel like substance raining form the sky and making residents horribly ill. Readers should also be reminded of the report given on the Power Hour radio show in March 2009, about truckloads of “bird flu” being delivered throughout America to underground missile silos orchestrated by the department of homeland security. Several of those loads were delivered into the back of a military C-130 (an aircraft often equipped with an aerosol dispersal system). Was this multi-million dollar operation conducted for the purpose of spreading the mild and basically insignificant H1N1 demi-flu ? Or has the final phase of the operation yet to occur? Has the event to justify the recent American National Emergency yet to occur? Will the CDC finally make use of their scores of mass graves and plastic caskets? Will the military be deployed to put the country under pandemic lockdown, as we have seen in the Ukraine? Far too much has been put into the H1N1 fiasco for it to amount to a mere outbreak of the common cold. It seems like many pieces of a plan have been put in place. Will the NWO put the people in check? Will the virus ‘Mutate’? Is this the beginning of the Globalist Endgame of population reduction ?<br />
<br />
There are reports now coming from Romania, India, Bulgaria, Belarus, Turkey, Norway that the rate on increase of flu is increasing rapidly. In Norway for example 300,000 residents contacted the flu in a single week. Whatever disease has been released is moving across Europe fast. This bug has spread too widely to be a Ukrainian election scam. Readers should note that just before the outbreak in Ukraine, the government was running pneumonic plague drills. In early November, there were also pneumonic plague drills being run in Illinois. Connect the dots. Notable there have also been reports of heavy supply and personnel movement in and out of known D.U.M.B.s (Deep Underground Military Bases) very recently. According to an unconfirmed report the parking lots of these bases are full and haven’t been this full since just after 911. What is going on? Will this fast moving disease be released in America? Listen for low flying aircraft. Shut your windows at night. Stock up on colloidal silver, antibiotics and high quality vitamins. Please watch the skies!</blockquote>

THERE ARE particularly intense levels of swine flu activity in Ireland, according to a study of European countries released yesterday.<br />
<br />
The weekly Influenza Surveillance Report from the Swedish-based European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) found only Iceland had experienced a similar level of intensity in Europe.<br />
<br />
Asked if this meant Ireland had the highest level of flu activity in Europe, Prof Angus Nicoll, flu co-ordinator with ECDC, said it was not possible to say this as not all countries were reporting data. No figures were available for France, Finland, Denmark and Greece, for example.<br />
<br />
Furthermore, he said countries such as Sweden and Ireland, for example, could not be compared as they used different systems for measuring flu activity. Germany and the UK also used different methods.<br />
<br />
“It could be a mistake to say, therefore, that there’s more intense transmission in Ireland if there are differences in the systems,” he said.<br />
<br />
The new report also shows that while there are “particularly severe levels of influenza activity” in Ireland and Iceland now, the situation in Ireland is “stable” while in Iceland flu activity is “decreasing”.</blockquote>

OTTAWA – In a shocking surge, 24 Ontario residents have died in less than 72 hours from Swine Flu, the Public Health Agency of Canada reported on its website.<br />
<br />
Ontario’s startling fatalities reported between November 10 and 11 a.m. EST on November 12 catapults the death toll from 37 reported on Nov. 10 to a total of 61. That is twice the figure of dead in Quebec and the highest of any province in Canada.<br />
<br />
Hospitals from coast to coast are swamped with admissions and visits to emergency departments in the past week with other provinces reporting record admissions from Swine Flu since its outbreak was noticed in April.<br />
<br />
Nova Scotia and Manitoba reported one death each between Nov. 10 and Nov. 12 to take Canada’s national fatality toll to 161 with much of the spike happening since the second wave of Swine Flu began in October.<br />
<br />
On November 10 at 11 a.m. EST, Ontario’s death toll stood at 37 and the Canadian national total was at 135.<br />

Gary's website - good list of white papers on vaccine studies...<br />
<br />
http://www.garynull.com/<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
A new study found that primates that received just ONE vaccination containing thimerosal, the mercury-preservative found in many vaccines including the new swine flu shot, had significant neurological impairment when compared with those who received a saline solution injection or no injection at all.<br />
<br />
Although the paper is carefully worded and the results reported modestly, these findings are certain to receive intense scrutiny. The vast majority of American infants born during the 1990’s received a vaccine formulation similar to the one the thirteen vaccinated primates received.<br />
<br />
Thimerosal-containing vaccines are still routinely administered to newborn infants in developing countries such as Brazil, and most influenza vaccines contain thimerosal and are routinely administered to pregnant women and infants.<br />
<br />
The finding that early exposure to potentially toxic vaccine formulations can cause significant neurodevelopmental delays in primates has explosive implications for vaccine safety management.<br />
<br />
But while Americans are still debating whether to roll up their sleeves for a swine flu shot, companies have already figured it out: vaccines are good for business.<br />
<br />
Drug companies have sold $1.5 billion worth of swine flu shots, in addition to the $1 billion for seasonal flu they booked earlier this year. These inoculations are part of a much wider and rapidly growing $20 billion global vaccine market.<br />
<br />
"The vaccine market is booming," says Bruce Carlson, spokesperson at market research firm Kalorama, which publishes an annual survey of the vaccine industry. "It's an enormous growth area for pharmaceuticals at a time when other areas are not doing so well," he says, noting that the pipeline for more traditional blockbuster drugs such as Lipitor and Nexium has thinned.<br />
<br />
As always with pandemic flus, taxpayers are footing the $1.5 billion check for the 250 million swine flu vaccines that the government has ordered so far and will be distributing free to doctors, pharmacies and schools. In addition, Congress has set aside more than $10 billion this year to research flu viruses, monitor H1N1's progress and educate the public about prevention.<br />
<br />
Drugmakers benefit most from the revenues from flu sales, with Sanofi-Pasteur, Glaxo Smith Kline and Novartis cornering most of the market.<br />
<br />
But some say it's not just drugmakers who stand to benefit. Doctors collect copayments for special office visits to inject shots, and there have been assertions that these doctors actually profit handsomely from these vaccinations.<br />

Excerpts from old article from 2006 -<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
Nonetheless, the Government has stockpiled two billion dollars worth of Tamiflu. This drug was developed a decade back by Gilead, of which Rumsfeld was the CEO, the company then transferring all marketing and sale rights to the Roche Company.<br />
<br />
Earlier, the current Secretary of Defense successfully marketed aspartame, a suspected carcinogen, as "Nutrasweet," on which he earned some ten million. Before that, he exploited scare tactics on the swine flu, to the extent that President Ford ordered massive inoculations in 1976. When fifty people died from the drug, its administration was suspended, but not before Mr. Rumsfeld pocketed an estimated five million.<br />
<br />
Much of the swine flu story and its dubious provenance has been documented by a Johns Hopkins medical professor, Arthur Silverstein, in his book Pure Politics and Impure Science, subtitled The Swine Flu Affair (JHU Press,1984). His account emphasizes how President Ford's desire to win election on his own rendered him susceptible to pressure from the pharmaceuticals to inoculate all Americans, 220 million people, against the Swine flu despite only one clearly documented fatality.<br />
<br />
It became a $135 million program which had reached 40 million before the accumulation of fatalities and a linkage to several cases of Guillain-Barre syndrome or paralysis saw suspension of the vaccine. The pharmaceutical companies had pre-arranged for the government to assume any liabilities.<br />
<br />
Aspartame had such a mixed record in various lab tests that the FDA refused approval several times. However, with the election of Ronald Reagan, Arthur Hayes Hull, Sr., a friend of Rumsfeld, became a commissioner on the FDA. Another crony appointment secured the votes necessary for approval. Today a $330 million class action lawsuit under RICO provisions mentions Rumsfeld as the CEO of G.D. Searle Company in 1977.</blockquote>

<br />
(NaturalNews) As the anticipated July release date for Baxter's A/H1N1 flu pandemic vaccine approaches, an Austrian investigative journalist is warning the world that the greatest crime in the history of humanity is underway. Jane Burgermeister has recently filed criminal charges with the FBI against the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations (UN), and several of the highest ranking government and corporate officials concerning bioterrorism and attempts to commit mass murder. She has also prepared an injunction against forced vaccination which is being filed in America. These actions follow her charges filed in April against Baxter AG and Avir Green Hills Biotechnology of Austria for producing contaminated bird flu vaccine, alleging this was a deliberate act to cause and profit from a pandemic.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/026503_pandemic_swine_flu_bioterrorism.html">http://www.naturalnews.com/026503_pandemic_swine_flu_bioterrorism.html</a><br />
<br />
(NaturalNews) There's a popular medical thriller novel in which a global pandemic is intentionally set off by an evil plot designed to reduce the human population. In the book, a nefarious drug company inserts live avian flu viruses into vaccine materials that are distributed to countries around the world to be injected into patients as "flu shots." Those patients then become carriers for these highly-virulent strains of avian flu which go on to infect the world population and cause widespread death.<br />
<br />
There's only one problem with this story: It's not fiction. Or, at least, the part about live avian flu viruses being inserted into vaccine materials isn't fiction. It's happening right now.<br />
<br />
Deerfield, Illinois-based pharmaceutical company Baxter International Inc. has just been caught shipping live avian flu viruses mixed with vaccine material to medical distributors in 18 countries. The "mistake" (if you can call it that, see below...) was discovered by the National Microbiology Laboratory in Canada. The World Health Organization was alerted and panic spread throughout the vaccine community as health experts asked the obvious question: How could this have happened?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/025760.html">http://www.naturalnews.com/025760.html</a><br />
<br />
Baxter uses BSL 3 (Biosafety Level 3) precautions in its laboratories, a system for the safe-handling of toxic substances, which makes an accidental contamination of ordinary flu material with the dangerous bird flu virus virtually impossible.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The contaminated vaccine material contained a mixture ofa seasonabl H3N2 human influenza virus and the deadly H5N1 virus. By adding a virus of the type H5N1 to an ordinary flu virus of the type H3N2, Baxter produced a highly dangerous biological weapon with a 63 per cent mortality rate.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The H5N1 virus is restricted in its human-to-human transmissibility, especially because it is less airborne.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
However, when it is combined with seasonal flu viruses, which are airborne and easily spread, a new flu virus is created which is unknown to the human immune system and which will have a severe impact on an unprotected population.”<br />
<br />
A deadly virus of this kind could spread around the world in a short time and infect millions and even billions of people.<br />
<br />
Second, Baxter distributed via Avir a number of these contaminated vaccines using false concealment and a false label to 16 laboratories in Austria and in other countries at the end of January/beginning of February, potentially infecting at least 36-37 laboratory staff, who had had to be treated preventively for bird flu and ordinary flu in hospital.<br />
<br />
On February 9th – on the very same day as 18 employees of Avir were given preventative treatment for the bird flu in the Otto Wagner Hospital in Vienna – AFP reported that Panasonic Japan intended to bring back to Japan the families of many of its staff working around the world because of the threat of a bird flu pandemic.<br />
<br />

<br />
Baxter International Inc said on Friday that it is in full-scale production of an A/H1N1 flu pandemic vaccine that could be ready for commercial use next month.<br />
<br />
The news comes a day after the World Health Organization (WHO) officially declared a pandemic and cautioned governments to prepare for a long-term battle against the new virus.<br />
<br />
Baxter said it received an A/H1N1 strain from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in May and has been working to develop a pandemic vaccine for use as early as July.<br />
<br />
A number of national public health authorities have agreements with Baxter that allow them to place orders for a vaccine now that a pandemic has been declared by WHO, Baxter said.<br />
<br />
Baxter said it would also work with WHO to allocate a portion of the company's commercial vaccine production to address global public health issues deemed most urgent.<br />
<br />
The company, which said it has completed testing and evaluation of the virus, is developing the vaccine using cell technology. Traditional flu vaccines are made using chicken eggs and typically take some six months to produce.<br />
<br />
Baxter said it believes its Vero cell technology will allow for much more rapid production and delivery of pandemic flu vaccine.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://in.news.yahoo.com/137/20090612/1510/tls-baxter-could-have-pandemic-flu-vacci.html">http://in.news.yahoo.com/137/20090612/1510/tls-baxter-could-have-pandemic-flu-vacci.html</a><br />
<br />
It's emerged that virulent H5N1 bird flu<br />
was sent out by accident from an Austrian lab last year and given to ferrets in the Czech Republic<br />
before anyone realised. As well as the risk of it escaping into the wild, the H5N1 got mixed with a human strain, which might have spawned a hybrid that could unleash a pandemic.<br />
<br />
Last December, the Austrian branch of US vaccine company Baxter sent a batch of ordinary human H3N2 flu, altered so it couldn't replicate, to Avir Green Hills Biotechnology, also in Austria. In February, a lab in the Czech Republic working for Avir alerted Baxter that, unexpectedly, ferrets inoculated with the sample had died. It turned out the sample contained live H5N1, which Baxter uses to make vaccine. The two seem to have been mixed in error.<br />
<br />
Markus Reinhard of Baxter says no one was infected because the H3N2 was handled at a high level of containment. But Ab Osterhaus of Erasmus University in the Netherlands says: "We need to go to great lengths to make sure this kind of thing doesn't happen."<br />
<br />
Accidental release of a mixture of live H5N1 and H3N2 viruses could have resulted in dire consequences. While H5N1 doesn't easily infect people, H3N2 viruses do. If someone exposed to a mixture of the two had been simultaneously infected with both strains, he or she could have served as an incubator for a hybrid virus able to transmit easily to and among people. <br />

MEXICO CITY (AP) - A new swine flu strain that has killed as many as 68 people and sickened more than 1,000 across Mexico has "pandemic potential," the World Health Organization chief said Saturday, and it may be too late to contain the sudden outbreak.<br />
<br />
The disease has already reached Texas and California, and with 24 new suspected cases reported Saturday in Mexico City alone, schools were closed and all public events suspended in the capital until further notice - including more than 500 concerts and other gatherings in the metropolis of 20 million.<br />
<br />
A hot line fielded 2,366 calls in its first hours from frightened city residents who suspected they might have the disease. Soldiers and health workers handed out masks at subway stops, and hospitals dealt with crowds of people seeking help.<br />
<br />
The World Health Organization's director-general, Margaret Chan, said the outbreak of the never-before-seen virus is a very serious situation and has "pandemic potential." But she said it is still too early to tell if it would become a pandemic.<br />

Mexico shut down schools, museums, libraries and state-run theaters across its overcrowded capital Friday in hopes of containing a swine flu outbreak that authorities say killed at least 20 people — and perhaps dozens more. World health authorities worried openly that the strange new virus could become a global epidemic.<br />
<br />
Mexico put the confirmed toll at 20 dead, but 40 other fatalities were being probed, and at least 943 nationwide were sick from the suspected flu, the health department said.<br />
<br />
Scientists said the virus combines genetic material from pigs, birds and humans in a way researchers have not seen before.<br />
<br />
“We are very, very concerned,” World Health Organization spokesman Thomas Abraham said.<br />
<br />
“We have what appears to be a novel virus and it has spread from human to human,” he said. “It’s all hands on deck at the moment.”<br />
<br />
President Felipe Calderon cancelled a trip and met with his Cabinet to coordinate Mexico’s response. The government planned to administer its remaining 500,000 vaccines from the flu season to health workers, the highest risk group, although it is not known how effective they are on swine flu. It said it also has enough oseltamivir, the generic name of Tamiflu, to treat 1 million people, but the medicine will be strictly controlled and handed out only by doctors.<br />
<br />
The CDC says Tamiflu and Relenza do seem effective against the new strain. Roche, the maker of Tamiflu, said the company is prepared to immediately deploy a stockpile of the drug if requested. Both drugs must be taken early, within a few days of the onset of symptoms, to be most effective.<br />
<br />
Authorities urged people to avoid hospitals unless they had a medical emergency, since hospitals are centers of infection.<br />

Canadians who have recently returned from Mexico should be on alert for flu-like symptoms that could be connected to a severe respiratory illness, federal health officials said Thursday in issuing a travel advisory.<br />
<br />
A severe respiratory illness appears to have infected 137 people in south and central areas of Mexico, with cases concentrated in Mexico City and three other areas, including 20 deaths, the Public Health Agency of Canada said.<br />
<br />
In the United States, health officials in Texas and California were scrambling this week to deal with a new strain of swine flu, which has been diagnosed in seven people.<br />
<br />
The states share a border with Mexico not far from a town where two deaths were reported.<br />
<br />
The U.S. cases are unusual, because it appears none of the patients had contact with pigs, and the virus is one that health officials have never seen before.<br />
<br />
No cases of this swine flu have yet been found in Canada. The country's national laboratory in Winnipeg is analyzing 51 samples from Mexico to determine if any of them are swine flu and are linked to the U.S. cases. Results are expected in two days.<br />
<br />
"It certainly is suspicious that you have a new strain of swine flu showing up just north of the Mexican border, and you have an outbreak of cases south in Mexico," he said.<br />
<br />
"We already have the Americans talking about the H1N1 strain, which is a new strain they haven't seen before .… If you had evidence that this strain was also in Mexico, you would have further evidence that something new has shown up which has the ability to go person-to-person and has crossed borders as well."<br />
<br />
However, there is no reason to panic, said Gardam.<br />
<br />
"A pandemic virus basically means a virus that is going to affect a large proportion of the population. It doesn't mean they're going to get necessarily all that sick."<br />

CAIRO – Egypt began slaughtering the roughly 300,000 pigs in the country Wednesday as a precautionary measure against the spread of swine flu even though no cases have been reported here yet, the Health Ministry said.<br />
<br />
The move immediately provoked resistance from pig farmers. At one large pig farming center just north of Cairo, farmers refused to cooperate with Health Ministry workers who came to slaughter the animals and the workers left without carrying out the government order.<br />
<br />
"It has been decided to immediately start slaughtering all the pigs in Egypt using the full capacity of the country's slaughterhouses," Health Minister Hatem el-Gabaly told reporters after a Cabinet meeting with President Hosni Mubarak.<br />
<br />
Egypt's overwhelmingly Muslim population does not eat pork due to religious restrictions. But the animals are raised and consumed by the Christian minority, which some estimates put at 10 percent of the population.<br />

The outbreak of disease in people caused by a new influenza virus of swine origin continues to grow in the United States and internationally. Today, CDC reports additional confirmed human infections, hospitalizations and the nation’s first fatality from this outbreak. The more recent illnesses and the reported death suggest that a pattern of more severe illness associated with this virus may be emerging in the U.S. Most people will not have immunity to this new virus and, as it continues to spread, more cases, more hospitalizations and more deaths are expected in the coming days and weeks.<br />

April 26 (Bloomberg) -- At least eight students from a private school in New York are suspected of having swine flu, New York health officials said yesterday as teams of international investigators raced to determine how widely the potentially deadly virus has spread.<br />
<br />
About 200 children from the 2,700-student St. Francis Preparatory School in Queens were absent last week with flu-like symptoms, said Thomas Frieden, commissioner for the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, at a press conference yesterday. All of the cases have been mild, lasting several days, and none of the children have been hospitalized, he said.<br />
<br />
New York health officials will confirm today whether the suspected swine flu cases are linked to a new strain of the virus that may have killed at least 80 people and made more than 1,000 people ill in Mexico. That strain has spread to people in California, Texas and Kansas, where 11 cases, and no deaths, have been verified, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said yesterday.<br />
<a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aTgD3ZjvANrI&refer=home">http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aTgD3ZjvANrI&refer=home</a> <br />
<br />
Swine flu, which was initially only transmitted from pigs to humans, is now traveling through human to human contact, and is one of the most deadly of the flu viruses.<br />
<br />
You might have noticed people wearing surgical masks in areas of Mexico to avoid the Swine Flu epidemic. At least 150 people have died from Swine Flu infection in Mexico and clusters of swine flu are found in areas all over the United States and around the World as well. The Swine Flu is currently under investigation by the Centers for Disease Control and the World Health Organization.<br />
<br />
Swine flu symptoms include runny nose, muscle aches, lethargy, lack of appetite, fever over 101 and sudden onset. It is difficult to distinguish from other flu types, and does require a diagnosis.<br />
<br />
Researchers are not yet sure if antiviral medicines such as Tamiflu or Relenza may remain effective against swine flu, although these antiviral medicines are working against the current strain. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC) are currently in the process of developing a vaccine to protect against the Swine Flu.<br />
<br />
The Swine Flu is a combination of four known strains including Avian flu, Human Influenza and two other viruses. This new strain of influenza is not only extremely contagious but also deadly, however, there are flu pandemic preparation measures you can take to ensure you do not get the Swine flu.<br />

<br />
Comment: The strain in Mexico is reported as being the same in the U.S. One of two things is true - either the Mexicans are lying about the severity of the crisis, or deaths in the U.S. are being covered up. The fact that this is all unfolding right on the border with Texas is obviously of prime importance because we are based here.<br />
<br />
I work as a resident doctor in one of the biggest hospitals in Mexico City and sadly, the situation is far from “under control”. As a doctor, I realise that the media does not report the truth. Authorities distributed vaccines among all the medical personnel with no results, because two of my partners who worked in this hospital (interns) were killed by this new virus in less than six days even though they were vaccinated as all of us were. The official number of deaths is 20, nevertheless, the true number of victims are more than 200. I understand that we must avoid to panic, but telling the truth it might be better now to prevent and avoid more deaths.<br />

Taking extreme precautions to stop the fast-spreading swine flu, Fort Worth became the nation’s first major city school district to close on Thursday, as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced that the number of confirmed cases had risen to 109 in 11 states, up from 91 cases in 10 states on Wednesday. <br />
<br />
Several more states are awaiting confirmation of likely cases, including Illinois, Colorado, Maine, Georgia and New Jersey, while hundreds of other schools around the country from Alabama to Minnesota have shut down.<br />
<br />
The closing of public schools in Fort Worth, the nation’s 17th-largest city, is expected to keep 80,000 students out of their classrooms through May 11, adding to the 53,000 pupils already being kept out of school in Texas.<br />
<br />
Elsewhere, the swine flu virus was confirmed in the Netherlands and Switzerland on Thursday, with the World Health Organization now confirming cases in 11 countries . In Canada, the confirmation of eight additional cases on Thursday brought the total number of cases of swine flu there to 27.<br />
<br />
The World Health Organization said Thursday it did not plan to raise its pandemic alert level, one day after the Geneva-based organization raised the level to the second-highest, phase 5, signaling that two countries had sustained human-to-human transmission of the virus.<br />

April 30 (Bloomberg) -- Fort Worth, Texas, closed 144 public schools with 80,000 students after one child came down with swine flu. Companies, school districts and nations are reacting swiftly to a new strain of flu that has been confirmed in only 257 people worldwide yet threatens millions, according to the World Health Organization. Confirmed cases are now reported in 11 countries, and officials in New York, Mexico and Australia have said hundreds more infections are suspected. <br />

Warren D. Ward, 48, was in high school when the swine flu threat of 1976 swept the U.S. The Whittier man remembers the episode vividly because a relative died in the 1918 flu pandemic, and the 1976 illness was feared to be a direct descendant of the deadly virus.<br />
<br />
"The government wanted everyone to get vaccinated," Ward said. "But the epidemic never really broke out. It was a threat that never materialized."<br />
<br />
The panic in 1976 was partly because of the belief -- now known to be erroneous -- that the 1918-19 flu pandemic, which killed half a million Americans and as many as 50 million worldwide, was caused by a virus with swine components. Recent research suggests instead that it was avian flu, but that seems unlikely to assuage the current anxiety.<br />
<br />
The episode began in February 1976, when an Army recruit at Ft. Dix, N.J., fell ill and died from a swine flu virus thought to be similar to the 1918 strain. Several other soldiers at the base also became ill. Shortly thereafter, Wenzel and his colleagues reported two cases of the flu strain in Virginia.<br />
<br />
"That raised the concern that the original cluster at Ft. Dix had spread beyond New Jersey," said Wenzel, former president of the International Society for Infectious Diseases.<br />
<br />
At the CDC, Sencer solicited the opinions of infectious disease specialists nationwide and, in March, called on President Ford and Congress to begin a mass inoculation.<br />
<br />
The $137-million program began in early October, but within days reports emerged that the vaccine appeared to increase the risk for Guillain-Barre syndrome, a rare neurological condition that causes temporary paralysis but can be fatal.<br />
<br />
Waiting in long lines at schools and clinics, more than 40 million Americans -- almost 25% of the population -- received the swine flu vaccine before the program was halted in December after 10 weeks.<br />
<br />
More than 500 people are thought to have developed Guillain-Barre syndrome after receiving the vaccine; 25 died. No one completely understands the causes of Guillain-Barre, but the condition can develop after a bout with infection or following surgery or vaccination. The federal government paid millions in damages to people or their families.<br />

<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Insights from a study of the events in '76...</span><br />
<br />
The whole swine flu scare was based on the death of only one soldier at Fort Dix, New Jersey (One report said october, 1975 and another said February, 1976). There was never any real evidence that he even had swine flu. There was a wide divergence of opinion among the doctors as to the real cause of his death. Some even tried to blame it on a walk he took when he was ill. An official diagnosis pronounced his death to be from A-Victoria flu, and not swine flu. All the soldiers at the camp had been innoculated with Port Chalmers flu vaccine, which was claimed to contain antigens to protect against all strains of flu. Shortly after the shots over 500 men got sick with the flu anyway, thus proving that the flu vaccine is a total failure and does not protect from the flu or anything else. 66 more were hospitalized at Fort Knox about the same time. We do not have the report from all the army camps but, it is quite certain there were a large number of cases of serious vaccine poisoning—no doubt, called by some other name, and death certificates falsified as is usually the case with vaccination deaths. The death certificates of vaccine poisoning usually read, "died of pneumonia" or hepatitis, or meningitis or something else.<br />
<br />
The present flu vaccine they are using on the civilian population is just as ineffective and dangerous, and yet, it is being promoted all over the country with disastrous results. No matter how many casualties they have they are determined to use it as long as they can get away with it—because it is profitable. That is its one and only purpose.<br />
<br />
Even if the swine flu had been the cause of the soldier’s death, one case of a disease is not grounds to stage a nation-wide epidemic. It takes at least 30 cases of the same disease in the same locality to constitute an epidemic.<br />
<br />
The vaccine promoters have been frantically trying to find at least one case of swine flu anywhere in the world to justify their custom made vaccination campaign. But they have not found one case—even among the swine. They heard of a man named Larry Hardison in Missouri who had a cold and they rushed to him to try to get a throat sample so they could make a case out of it. But he got well before they got the throat sample. Most of the cases of flu they check are caused by the vaccine itself.<br />
<br />
There is no swine flu epidemic in U.S. or anywhere else in the world, and there is not going to be one either unless the vaccine promoters carry out their plan to vaccinate all the people; then there will be a full blown epidemic of vaccine poisoning—not flu.<br />
<br />
There are already 113 recorded vaccine deaths and that is enough to be an epidemic of vaccine poisoning.<br />
<br />
ALL VACCINES ARE POISON<br />
<br />
Vaccines contain decomposed protein such as that which is taken from pustules on sick animals or putrefied eggs mixed with deadly drugs such as carbolic acid (phenol), mercury, formaldehyde (formalin), etc. Decomposed proteins can cause botulism, salmonella or other types of body poisoning. It’s no wonder people drop dead after the shots.<br />
<br />
All doctors who know the subject know and admit that all vaccines are highly toxic, and the after-effects are unpredictable. No doctor, laboratory technician or scientist can possibly determine the reaction the vaccine will have on each individual. It is impossible to know, in advance, the toleration point for poison which each person has. Therefore it is a deadly gamble—like Russian roulette—as to whether the vaccine will cause instant death (and that sometimes happens), or paralysis a few hours later, or cancer, heart trouble or TB a few years later, or kidney disease, liver damage, insanity (post vaccinal encephalitis—inflammation of the brain caused by vaccines) or some other chronic disease somewhere along the way.<br />

<br />
A U.S. based pharmaceutical company that just weeks ago was involved in a scandal involving vaccines tainted with deadly avian flu virus has been chosen to head up efforts to produce a vaccine for the Mexican swine flu that has seemingly migrated into the U.S. and Europe.<br />
<br />
Baxter confirmed over the weekend that it is working with the World Health Organization on a potential vaccine to curb the deadly swine flu virus that is blamed for scores of deaths in Mexico and has emerged as a threat in the U.S., reports the Chicago Tribune.<br />
<br />
Baxter has previously worked with governments all over the globe to develop and produce vaccines to protect against infectious disease or potential threats from bioterrorism. After 9/11 Baxter helped supply stockpiles of a smallpox vaccine and in 2003 the company was contracted to develop a vaccine to combat the SARS virus. In 2006 the UK Government announced plans designed to inoculate every person in the country with Baxter's vaccines in the event of a flu pandemic.<br />
<br />
However, Baxter has a very recent and most disturbing connection to flu vaccines.<br />
<br />
As reported by multiple sources last month, including the Times of India, vaccines contaminated with deadly live H5N1 avian flu virus were distributed to 18 countries last December by a lab at an Austrian branch of Baxter.<br />
<br />
It was only by providence that the batch was first tested on ferrets in the Czech Republic, before being shipped out for injection into humans. The ferrets all died and the shocking discovery was made.<br />

The Swine Flu scare has boosted the stock market values of Big Pharma. Following initial reports from Mexico on the influenza outbreak, the demand for anti-flu drugs has skyrocketed.<br />
<br />
Supported by media disinformation, an atmosphere of fear and intimidation has unfolded. Health “emergencies” have been declared in various parts of the US.<br />
<br />
The most sought after influenza drugs are Tamiflu and Relenza. Treatment courses by the US government have been released from the national stockpile “to make sure health care providers are ready for any escalation in cases.”<br />
<br />
Tamiflu is produced by the Swiss pharmaceutical giant Hoffman-La Roche on behalf of a US based biotech company Gilead Sciences, Inc. While the drug is produced by Roche, it was developed by Gilead Sciences Inc. which owns the intellectual property rights.<br />
<br />
Former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was one of the major shareholders of Gilead Sciences. In 1997, Rumsfeld was appointed Chairman of Gilead Sciences, Inc., a position which he held until becoming Secretary of Defence in the Bush administration in 2001. Rumsfeld was on the Board of Directors from the establishment of Gilead in 1987.<br />
<br />
Fortune Magazine in a report published at the height of 2005 bird flu crisis, described Gilead as one of the most politically connected companies in the biotech industry. Rumsfeld’s interests and/or holdings in Gilead following his resignation in 2006 are not known. <br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Obama made a trip to Mexico a couple weeks ago. The guy who greeted him and showed him around the historic sites is dead of the flu. Why isn't Obama worried?</span><br />
<br />
WASHINGTON – Virulent swine flu spread to 10 U.S. states from coast to coast Wednesday and swept deeper into Europe, extending its global reach as President Barack Obama mourned the first U.S. death, a Mexican toddler who had traveled with his family to Texas. Total American cases surged to nearly 100, and Obama said wider school closings might be necessary.<br />
<br />
The World Health Organization said the outbreak is moving closer to becoming a full-scale pandemic.<br />
<br />
Dr. Keiji Fukuda, the organization's top flu expert, told reporters in Geneva that the latest developments are moving the agency closer to raising its pandemic alert to phase 5, indicating widespread human-to-human transmission. That's just one step below level 6, a full-fledged pandemic.<br />
<br />
In Washington, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano was questioned closely by senators about whether the U.S. should close its border with Mexico, where the outbreak apparently began and the casualties have been the greatest. She repeated the administration's position that questioning of people at borders and ports of entry was sufficient for now and said closing borders "has not been merited by the facts."<br />

(FTW) - In the four-month period from Nov. 12 through Feb. 11, seven world-class microbiologists in different parts of the world were reported dead. Six died of "unnatural" causes, while the cause of the seventh's death is questionable. Also on Nov. 12, DynCorp, a major government contractor for data processing, military operations and intelligence work, was awarded a $322 million contract to develop, produce and store vaccines for the Department of Defense. DynCorp and Hadron, both defense contractors connected to classified research programs on communicable diseases, have also been linked to a software program known as PROMIS, which may have helped identify and target the victims.<br />
<br />
In the six weeks prior to Nov. 12, two additional foreign microbiologists were reported dead. Some believe there were as many as five more microbiologists killed during the period, bringing the total as high as 14. These two to seven additional deaths, however, are not the focus of this story. This same period also saw the deaths of three persons involved in medical research or public health.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.rense.com/general20/mic.htm">http://www.rense.com/general20/mic.htm</a><br />
<br />
The scenario is straight out of a Robert Ludlum novel. Since 2001 nearly four dozen microbiologists from around the globe have died, some in very questionable and mysterious circumstances. Some of them were working on how best to counter attacks of bioterrorism and some are suspected of working in labrotaries doing secret research on bio-weapons. There are dozens of websites out there peddling conspiracy theories and a few police investigations on.<br />
<br />
A brief recap: 11 microbilogists died within five months between Nov 2001 and March 2002. There was the mysterious disappearance of Don Wiley, 57, Harvard biochemistry professor. Within a week of that Russian defector Vladamir Pasechnik, 64, fell dead. The Russian scientist who defected in 1989 to London was part of the team that had figured out how to deliver bio-agents on cruise missiles.<br />
<br />
Microbiologist, Robert Schwartz, 57, was stabbed with a sword in Leesberg, Va, his daughter and her accomplices are facing charges. Next day, itself, on Dec 5, 2001, scientist Nguyen Van Set died in an airlock filled with nitrogen in his lab in Geelong, Australia. Later, Russian microbiologist Victor Korshunov, 56, an expert on intestinal bacteria of children, was hit repeatedly over the head near his home in Moscow. Five days later the British microbiologist Ian Langford, 40, was found dead in his home near Norwich, England. He was naked from the waist down and was jammed under a chair. He was an expert in disease and environmental risk management.<br />
<br />
The final two deaths came one day after the other in March. David Wynn-Williams, 55, a respected astrobiologist with the British Antarctic Survey, who studied the habits of microbes that might survive in outer space, was hit by a car while jogging in Cambridge, London. The next day, Steven Mostow, 63, an influenza expert and expert on bioterrorism, died when he crashed near Denver, US, while piloting his own plane.<br />

"The two American scientists he had worked with were Benito Que, 52, and Don Wiley, 57. Both microbiologists had been engaged in DNA sequencing that could provide "a genetic marker based on genetic profiling." The research could play an important role in developing weaponized pathogens to hit selected groups of humans"identifying them by race. Two years ago, both men were found dead, in circumstances never fully explained."<br />

Microbiologists With Link to Race-Based Weapon Turning Up Dead<br />
<br />
More on Kelly... True or False?<br />
<br />
Exclusive to American Free Press By Gordon Thomas 8-10-3<br />
<br />
Dr. David Kelly - the biological warfare weapons specialist at the heart of the continuing political crisis for the British government - had links to three other top microbiologists whose deaths have left unanswered questions.<br />
<br />
The 59-year-old British scientist was involved with ultra secret work at Israel's Institute for Biological Re search. Israeli sources claim Kelly met institute scientists several times in London in the past two years.<br />
<br />
Israel has not signed the Biological Weapons and Toxins Convention, an international treaty ratified by more than 140 countries. It forbids the development, possession and use of offensive biological and chemical weapons.<br />
<br />
The CIA, FBI and MI5 are now examining Kelly's connections. Their findings could form part of the British government's inquiry into the background of Kelly's death, which opened last week.<br />
<br />
The intelligence investigation is believed to have originated in Washington, where it emerged that Kelly had contacts with two companies in the U.S. bio-defense industry.<br />

Authorities said Sunday that the November death of an internationally recognized Harvard scientist was the result of an accidental fall from the Hernando DeSoto Bridge and not a homicide. Shelby County Medical Examiner Dr. O. C. Smith gave to police Sunday his findings in the death of Dr. Don C. Wiley, 57. Smith said the cause of death was a fall from the bridge and the manner of death was accidental. He said the accidental death followed a minor motor vehicle accident on the bridge. Police could announce details of the medical examiner's findings as early as today. Authorities are expected to say that Wiley, who was at least 6-foot-3, accidentally went over the railing after getting out of the car to examine the damage to the vehicle. They said there is no evidence anyone else was involved in the death. It has been reported that the hubcap for the right front wheel was missing and there were yellow scrape marks on the rented white four-door 2001 Mitsubishi Galant. The car was found abandoned in one of the westbound lanes of the bridge at 4 a.m. Nov. 16. The key was in the ignition, the gas tank full. A Memphis police officer responding to "an abandoned vehicle call" located the car. Its hazard lights were not flashing. The officer then checked the catwalks on both sides of the bridge, but found nothing. The officer who located Wiley's car said the vehicle wasn't there when he made a routine check of the bridge an hour earlier. Wiley, a prize-winning biochemist, had been in Memphis for a two-day meeting of the Scientific Advisory Board of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Wiley was last seen about midnight Nov. 15 in the lobby of The Peabody, where he had attended a banquet for the advisory board.<br />

If you sell crack, join a gang, or rob the mob you can expect to die a violent death, but if you listen to your mother, eat all the right foods, and study hard in college to become a microbiologist, you should expect to live to a ripe old age and die peacefully.<br />
<br />
That being the case, a few eyebrows were raised when five microbiologists either disappeared or died mysteriously violent deaths in 2001. A short time later the number rose to 19, and then 29.<br />
<br />
They were found stabbed to death in the trunks of cars, thrown off bridges, or they wrapped their cars around trees after their brake fluid disappeared. Once again, this is the stuff of Hollywood spy stories, and not the way you would expect a microbiologist to give up the ghost.<br />
<br />
By 2005, we lost 40 micro-biologists in less than 4 years, all under suspicious circumstances, and during this time someone discovered that they were all working for the government, or government contractors, on projects related to bio-terrorism, flu pandemics, or anthrax. Obviously they weren’t trying to find a cure for anything, or there would be no need to silence them.<br />
<br />
Then it was discovered that our government was involved in strange experiments that involve exhuming bodies of people that were killed by the 1918 Spanish flu, and genetically engineered flu viruses, all the while the media is preparing the public with stories of bird flu wiping out thousands of chickens (acid test?) and even a few people here and there.<br />
<br />
People who are becoming accustomed to the practices and motives of our criminal government tried to warn you of an impending flu pandemic, but your TV training taught you to dismiss them all as “crazy conspiracy theorists,” and you naturally associated all their warnings with stories of Bigfoot and UFO abductions, just as you were trained to do.<br />

The good folks of FEMA predicted a need for a few million plastic coffins, which are now spread out across the country, but despite this revelation, most of America still thinks their biggest concern is a toss up between the Super Bowl and American Idol.<br />

The influenza pandemic of 1918-1919 killed more people than the Great War, known today as World War I (WWI), at somewhere between 20 and 40 million people. It has been cited as the most devastating epidemic in recorded world history. More people died of influenza in a single year than in four-years of the Black Death Bubonic Plague from 1347 to 1351. Known as "Spanish Flu" or "La Grippe" the influenza of 1918-1919 was a global disaster.<br />

A four-nation team is exhuming the bodies of six young coal miners who were among the victims of the Spanish flu, which killed 20 million to 40 million people in 1918 and 1919 before vanishing.<br />
<br />
The miners were buried in the permafrost of this Norwegian Arctic outpost, and researchers say the frigid conditions might have preserved samples of the mysterious virus sufficient to build a genetic profile.<br />

<br />
Reported deaths for the 1918 flu range from 20 million to 100 million worldwide with most reports at around 40-50 million. From what I have been able to ascertain, subsequent pandemics did not have the same hallmarks/virus combinations as the Spanish flu making the Mexican flu “rare” but only on the timeline. It is more than a little bit similar to the Spanish Flu with elements of avian, swine, and human virus strains. In 1951 and 1997, bodies were exhumed and the Spanish flu virus captured for researchers to study. When it was first reported in 1998, I thought it was an profoundly dangerous idea, considering the military was hunting this little microbe down, and it seems it may have been. Will we ever really know? Not likely, but I can have my suspicions.<br />
<br />
What follows are two articles with background information about the 1918 Spanish Pandemic and the hunt for the lethal virus. Also, please be aware that some of the findings in these initial reports have changed and will be in subsequent articles in this series.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://logisticsmonster.com/2009/04/26/1918-spanish-flu-vs-mexican-flu-part-1/">http://logisticsmonster.com/2009/04/26/1918-spanish-flu-vs-mexican-flu-part-1/</a><br />
<br />
In 1948 Heinrich Mueller, the former head of the Gestapo, told his CIA Interrogator that the most devastating plague in human history was man-made.<br />
<br />
"Indeed, symptoms in 1918 were so unusual that initially influenza was misdiagnosed as dengue, cholera, or typhoid. One observer wrote, "One of the most striking of the complications was hemorrhage from mucous membranes, especially from the nose, stomach, and intestine. Bleeding from the ears and petechial hemorrhages in the skin also occurred. ...Another unusual feature of this pandemic was that it mostly killed young adults, with 99% of pandemic influenza deaths occurring in people under 65 and more than half in young adults 20 to 40 years old. This is unusual since influenza is normally most deadly to the very young (under age 2) and the very old (over age 70)."<br />
<br />
At a 1944 Nazi bacteriological warfare conference in Berlin, General Walter Schreiber, Chief of the Medical Corps of the German Army told Mueller that he had spent two months in the US in 1927 conferring with his counterparts. They told him that the "so-called double blow virus" (i.e. Spanish Flu) was developed and used during the 1914 war.<br />
<br />
"But," according to Mueller, "it got out of control and instead of killing the Germans who had surrendered by then, it turned back on you, and nearly everybody else." ("Gestapo Chief: The 1948 CIA Interrogation of Heinrich Mueller" Vol. 2 by Gregory Douglas, p. 106) Actually the Armistice took place Aug 11, 1918.<br />
<br />
The interrogator, James Kronthal, the CIA Bern Station Chief asked Mueller to explain "double blow virus."<br />
<br />
Mueller: "I am not a doctor, you understand, but the 'double-blow' referred to a virus, or actually a pair of them that worked like a prize fighter. The first blow attacked the immune system and made the victim susceptible, fatally so, to the second blow which was a form of pneumonia...[Schreiber told me] a British scientist actually developed it...Now you see why such things are insanity. These things can alter themselves and what starts out as a limited thing can change into something really terrible."<br />
<br />
The subject of the Spanish Flu arose in the context of a discussion of typhus.<br />
The Nazis deliberately introduced typhus into Russian POW camps and, along with starvation, killed about three million men. The typhus spread to Auschwitz and other concentration camps with Russian and Polish POWS. <br />
<br />
In the context of the Cold War, Mueller says: "If Stalin invades Europe...a little disease here and there would wipe out Stalin's hoards and leave everything intact. Besides, a small bottle of germs is so much cheaper than an atom bomb, isn't it? Why you could hold more soldiers in your hand than Stalin could possibly command and you don't have to feed them clothes them or supply them with munitions. On the other hand, the threat of war...does wonders... for the economy." (108)<br />
<br />
Is Mueller credible? In my opinion he is. Gregory Douglas apparently is a pseudonym for his nephew with whom he left his papers. Normally a hoax would not run to thousands of pages. The Interrogation is 800 pages. The Memoirs are 250 pages. The microfilmed Archive apparently covers 850,000 pages. Finally, the material I have read is incredibly well informed, consistent and full of plausible revelations .<br />

Scientists have applied to exhume the corpses of 10 Londoners buried more than 80 years ago to discover the genetic make-up of the world's most deadly virus.<br />
<br />
Scientists have applied to exhume the corpses of 10 Londoners buried more than 80 years ago to discover the genetic make-up of the world's most deadly virus.<br />
<br />
The bodies, says Britain's leading flu expert, could help explain why 40 million people died in the 1918 outbreak of "Spanish flu". Research on them could help to combat future global epidemics.<br />
<br />
John Oxford, the Government's flu adviser, is convinced a highly contagious and deadly strain of the influenza A virus will strike within a decade. The last time a type A strain struck Britain, two years ago, 20,000, mainly elderly, people died, bringing the National Health Service to its knees. A type B flu hit last year with less effect.<br />
<br />
Professor Oxford, of Queen Mary's School of Medicine in London, predicts another type A flu outbreak this year with a really nasty strain hitting the planet within 10 years. "We are anticipating a pandemic in the next decade," he said yesterday. That makes the race to discover the cause of the 1918 pandemic all the more urgent.<br />
<br />
After two years' detective work, trawling through undertakers' records, his team has tracked down 10 young people, who died of Spanish flu, buried across London in lead-lined coffins. The lead will have kept the corpses preserved, he believes, allowing scientists to examine the corpses and the genetic code that makes up Spanish flu.<br />
<br />
The removal of the bodies will have to be done with extreme caution. Professor Oxford admits there is an outside chance of unleashing Spanish flu again."It has to be done very, very carefully," he said.<br />

Hopefully the news as of late regarding the spread of Swine flu has you concerned to some degree of your own exposure. Or perhaps the news has at least made you aware that your emergency preparedness supplies aren’t presently sufficient for such a crisis. If you’re becoming aware of such a situation, that’s actually the best thing that can result from the news of this epidemic. Because the good news is that you can be prepared for this and other like ailments by taking some proactive steps now. Being prepared independently to handle such a crisis as a Swine flu epidemic is critical. Believing that life will always be “normal enough” for you to plan on having access to the “anti-virus” or vaccination shortly after the time of exposure is truly a gamble of Russian roulette proportions. <br />
<br />
First let’s look at some supplies that you will want to have on hand for external physical benefits. <br />

USE: The Commission E approved the internal use of elder flower for colds. The British Herbal Compendium lists its uses for common cold, feverish conditions, and as a diuretic (Bradley, 1992). The German Standard License for elder flower tea calls it a diaphoretic medicine for the treatment of feverish common colds or catarrhal complaints (Braun et al., 1997).<br />
<br />
(1) Two randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind studies demonstrated the elderberry extract, Sambucol, effectively inhibited both influenza A and B strains when given orally to patients in the first 48 hours of influenza symptoms. In the earlier study, 27 individuals experiencing typical early flu symptoms were given Sambucol or placebo daily for three days—2 tablespoons (children) or four tablespoons (adults). Patients were followed for six days and symptoms monitored. Serum from all subjects was analyzed for antibodies to influenza A and B at the initial dose and during the convalescent phase. In the treatment group, significant improvement in flu symptoms was observed in 93.3 percent of subjects within two days after initial dosing, while 91.7 percent of the control group demonstrated improvement after six days. A complete resolution was achieved in the treatment group in 90 percent of patients after 2–3 days, while the placebo group yielded similar results after six days. Of these 27 patients, 23 had laboratory confirmation of influenza B. <br />

During the Black Plague, a band of thieves went around robbing the dying and dead. Upon their capture, the magistrate offered to spare their lives if they would reveal how it was they protected themselves. The bandits (spice merchants and perfumers) relied on an old Egyptian alchemist's recipe: herbs and essential oils of lemon, cinnamon, clove, rosemary, and eucalyptus.<br />

Clove - Clove oil is the most powerful known antioxidant on the planet. Coming in at approximately 10,800,000 this oil has the highest rating on the ORAC scale than any other substance organic or otherwise. Nothing even came close. Clove stops free radical damage dead in their tracks. Also a powerful antimicrobial ranking right up there with Oregano & Cinnamon Bark.<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">The impact...</span><br />
<br />
The Massachusetts Senate has unanimously passed a pandemic flu preparation bill that has languished in the Legislature before the recent swine flu outbreak.<br />
<br />
The 36-0 vote today sends the measure to the House. Both branches have taken it up in past years, but have not been able to agree on the details.<br />
<br />
The new Senate version would allow the public health commissioner — in a public health emergency — to close or evacuate buildings, enter private property for investigations, and quarantine individuals.<br />
<br />
The bill specifically mandates the following:<br />
<br />
(1) to require the owner or occupier of premises to permit entry into and investigation of the premises;<br />
(2) to close, direct, and compel the evacuation of, or to decontaminate or cause to be decontaminated any building or facility, and to allow the reopening of the building or facility when the danger has ended;<br />
(3) to decontaminate or cause to be decontaminated, or to destroy any material;<br />
(4) to restrict or prohibit assemblages of persons;<br />
(5) to require a health care facility to provide services or the use of its facility, or to transfer the management and supervision of the health care facility to the department or to a local public health authority;<br />
(6) to control ingress to and egress from any stricken or threatened public area, and the movement of persons and materials within the area;<br />
(7) to adopt and enforce measures to provide for the safe disposal of infectious waste and human remains, provided that religious, cultural, family, and individual beliefs of the deceased person shall be followed to the extent possible when disposing of human remains, whenever that may be done without endangering the public health;<br />
(8) to procure, take immediate possession from any source, store, or distribute any anti-toxins, serums, vaccines, immunizing agents, antibiotics, and other pharmaceutical agents or medical supplies located within the commonwealth as may be necessary to respond to the emergency;<br />
(9) to require in-state health care providers to assist in the performance of vaccination, treatment, examination, or testing of any individual as a condition of licensure, authorization, or the ability to continue to function as a health care provider in the commonwealth.<br />

White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said Thursday that three members of an aide's family are being tested to see if they have the same strain of swine flu that is threatening to become a pandemic. The aide worked in presidential advance, which is responsible for planning and preparing trips.<br />
<br />
Gibbs said that Secretary Chu has not experienced any symptoms. The spokesman also said that <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">President Barack Obama also has had no symptoms of the virus and doctors see no need to conduct any tests on his health.</span></span><br />

<br />
ATLANTA — People hospitalized in the United States for swine flu are turning out to be younger than is typical for regular flu. U.S. health officials say the median age for confirmed hospital cases is 15. <br />

<blockquote>
Former officials are often more honest than current ones, since they aren't under pressure to spread happy talk.<br />
<br />
Former European Central Bank chief economist Otmar Issing recently said what current officials aren't addressing:<br />
<br />
Nobody can be sure that we have a self-sustaining recovery. The challenges facing the ECB are tremendous. "Money multipliers have collapsed everywhere. What M3 is telling us is that confidence is missing. I don't see any way to stabilise M3 in such circumstances.<br />
<br />
As Ambrose Evans-Pritchard notes:<br />
<br />
Data from the European Central Bank shows that the M3 broad money supply has contracted over the last six months, confounding expectations that ultra-low interest rates would soon boost monetary growth. Loans to the private sector fell 0.3pc from a year earlier, the first such decline since the data started in 1983.<br />
The M3 figures include a wide range of bank accounts...<br />
<br />
The picture is even starker in America where M3 has shrunk at an annual rate of 6.5pc over the last three months, a pace of contraction not seen since the 1930s. US bank loans have plummeted since May.<br />
<br />
(While the Fed stopped reporting M3 in 2006, people are still tracking it).<br />
<br />
How can M3 have collapsed when governments world-wide are printing money faster than IHOP can cook pancakes?<br />
<br />
Well, professor Tim Congdon from International Monetary Research says:<br />
<br />
A key reason for credit contraction is pressure on banks to raise their capital ratios... "The current drive to make banks less leveraged and safer is having the perverse consequence of destroying money balances," he said. "It strengthens the deflationary forces in the world economy. That increases the risks of a double-dip recession in 2010." <br />
<br />
But isn't it good that governments are requiring banks to raise their capital rations?<br />
<br />
Sure, but unless they force the banks to write off their bad debts, they will remain giant black holes, and will never be adequately capitalized. If they are never adequately capitalized, they will never release money out into the economy through loans and other economic activity which increases M3.</blockquote>

<br />
At this point, I must give kudos to one of my readers, Ginny, who pointed me to G. Edward Griffin who wrote, “The Creature From Jekyll Island; A Second Look At The Federal Reserve”. I have run across other books about this subject, but I am starting with Mr. Griffin because he explains it in the simplest terms. This may help overcome some of the mental trauma we experience when we think of trying to understand the banking system in this country, and believe me, you need to settle in and understand just how much danger we are in at this moment in time with the $700 Billion Bailout, the $2 Trillion the Fed gave out before the $700 Billion, and the $1 Trillion (estimated) that the PEBO is going to print for stimulus. The Federal Reserve is printing money out of thin air and then charging us interest on that money, and there is no end in sight. This is the reason that the “powers-that-be” will force the collapse of the dollar to start anew and every single American will be financially devastated, and then asked to accept the Amero at cents on the dollar. The time to educate yourselves is NOW, and here is just one link to what is happening behind the scenes; readiness for mass rioting. This also may explain why a completely unknown black senator was installed in the White House. The “rich, white, money men” kill two birds with one stone, and the black community loses all credibility of ever having another black person put in such a place of power because the first black president presided over the biggest collapse of an American Economy EVER. Think that is far-fetched? Applying that theory really does explain how someone like Barack Obama with such a jaded past, hidden documents, no experience, and total self-absorption could become the fall-guy for the Wall Street money men. ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MONEY!<br />

At the moment of this writing the membership list compiled by PEHI contains 1496 names, the vast majority of them from the United States (rough estimate: about 82% or 1227). Analyzing the biographies of these members doesn’t just show that the Pilgrims are part of the WASP elite - they are the WASP elite. The following banks, law firms, and insurance companies have been headed by Pilgrims Society members - usually for generations:<br />
<br />
Banks<br />
American Securities Corp. Federal Reserve Kidder, Peabody and Co. Morgan Joseph & Co. Inc.<br />
Banker’s Trust Fidelity International Trust Kleinwort Benson New York Savings Bank<br />
Bank of England Fifth Avenue Bank Kuhn, Loeb & Co. N.M. Rothschild & Sons<br />
Barclays Bank First Boston Corporation Lazard Oppenheimer & Co.<br />
Barings Bank First National Bank Lehman Brothers Paine, Webber<br />
Blackstone Group US/UK Fourth Nat. Bank of N.Y. Loeb, Rhoades & Co. Rockefeller Center, Inc.<br />
Bowery Savings Bank Goldman Sachs Manufacturers Hanover Rockefeller Family & Ass.<br />
Brown Brothers Harriman Gotham National Bank Marine Midland Salomon Brothers<br />
Bullock Fund Hambro Mellon Bank S.G. Warburg<br />

<br />
Other businesses<br />

Corning Glass Works General Electric Int. Nickel Co. of Canada Rio Tinto<br />
De Beers (Anglo-Am Corp) General Motors Jardine Matheson U.S. Steel<br />
Dodge IBM Phelps-Dodge W.R. Grace & Co.<br />
* other media companies not mentioned here<br />
<br />
Looking at these tables, it is clear that the major banks of New York and London have been very prominent in the Pilgrims Society, closely followed by a group of influential law firms and insurance companies. A number of corporations have also had a considerable presence in the Pilgrims, comparable to some of the law firms and smaller banks. The most prominent of these might well be IBM, of the Watson family - but the founders and owners of Chrysler, Dodge, Jardine Matheson, W.R. Grace & Co., Reynolds, Corning Glass, and Forbes have all been Pilgrims. A vast range of other corporations have been represented by Pilgrims, but do not appear to have been part of the core of the Anglo-American establishment.<br />
<br />
Media (and Operation Mockingbird)<br />
Except for Forbes, we deliberately left out large media companies in this last section, as their presence in the Pilgrims Society and influence on society deserves to be discussed separately.<br />
<br />
The New York Times and Time Magazine have been the news publications the most intimately tied to to the Pilgrims of the United States over the years. Since 1896 the New York Times has been owned by the Ochs-Sulzberger family, members of which have been generational members of the Pilgrims since the very beginning. Orvil E. Dryfoos, who married a daughter of Arthur Sulzberger and rose to president of the New York Times in 1957 and publisher in 1961, was another member of the Pilgrims. A number of outside Pilgrims held senior positions in the New York Times too over the years. Among them were John William Harding, George McAneny, Philip Du Val, Cyrus Vance and Charles H. Price II.<br />
Time Magazine was set up by Henry Luce in 1923. Although he himself appears not to have been a Pilgrim, most of his associates were, including some of those who financed the founding of his magazine: J. P. Morgan partners Thomas W. Lamont and Dwight Morrow,together with the Harriman and Harkness families. Among the Pilgrims that have held senior positions in Time Magazine are Paul Gray Hoffman (OSS-CIA), Philip G. Howlett, William J. Cross, Hedley Donovan, Donald M. Elliman, Jr., George A. Heard, Roy E. Larsen, Samuel W. Meek and Frank Pace, Jr. Henry Luce III became president of the U.S. Pilgrims in 1997.<br />
<br />
Another important Pilgrims-affiliated publication used to be the New York Herald Tribune, owned by the Reid family and dissolved in 1966. Whitelaw Reid, Whitelaw Reid II, Ogden Mills Reid, Ogden Rogers Reid and several other family members have all been members of the Pilgrims Society. In 1958, John Hay Whitney, a vice president of the U.S. Pilgrims, took over the newspaper from the Reids.<br />
<br />
Although not very prominent within the Pilgrims Society, some of Reader’s Digest most senior and long term managers have been Pilgrims, spanning the period from the 1940s to the 1980s. Among them were William John Cross, C. Robert Devine, Walter Wood Hitesman and Kent Rhodes.<br />
<br />
News stations are considerably less prominent in the Pilgrims Society. One of the exceptions has been the Radio Corporation of America (RCA), located in Rockefeller Center and one of he most dominant broadcasting companies from the 1930s to the early 1970s. Morgan banker Owen D. Young founded the RCA in 1919. Young was chairman of General Electric, which took a controlling interest in the RCA. For the next fifty years, until 1970, the company was headed by James G. Harbord, Frank M. Folsom, and David Sarnoff. All these men, including Young, were members of the Pilgrims Society. In 1970, Sarnoff’s son, Robert, took over the chairmanship of the RCA, but couldn’t prevent the company from going into a permanent decline. Robert was ousted in 1975 and in the years after the RCA was taken over by other media conglomerates not particularly tied to the Pilgrims.<br />
<br />
The RCA, in cooperation with General Electric and Westinghouse, had formed the NBC in 1926, which became its main broadcasting corporation. By the late 1930s, NBC had become so dominant on the airwaves that the FCC forced it into two companies, one becoming the significantly less influential ABC. At this moment it appears that the succeeding heads of both NBC and ABC weren’t invited to the Pilgrims. Of course, the Pilgrims of the RCA did continue to exert their influence over NBC for many years. One person not mentioned before is John Brademas, one of the directors of the RCA/NBC. Brademas is a perfect example of a WASP elitist. A member of both the American and British Pilgrims, he was a Rhodes Scholar, a trustee of the Rockefeller Foundation, on the advisory board of the David Rockefeller Fellowships, a director of the Aspen Institute, a governor of the American Ditchley Foundation, a member of the CFR and a member of the Trilateral Commission. Brademas also served on a number of Carnegie commissions.<br />
<br />
The other exception of a broadcasting company that has been represented in the Pilgrims Society is CBS. Over the years several Pilgrims have been directors of this New York-based company, among them Henry Kissinger and Marietta Peabody Tree (vice chair Pilgrims; great-granddaughter of George E. Peabody, the famous Morgan partner). William S. Paley, the founder and continuous owner of CBS until his death in 1990, was a member of the Pilgrims Society. So was “the most trusted man in America”, Walter Cronkite, the well known anchorman for the CBS Evening News from 1962 to 1982.<br />
<br />
In the 1970s, after a number of scandals in which the CIA was implicated, several reports emerged about a working relationship between the CIA and a number of major media outlets. One of them was the 1979 book ‘Katherine the Great’ by investigative author Deborah Davis, who had been interviewing people in Washington for three years. She described the Washington Post’s relationship with the CIA and how Watergate might not have been an accidental discovery. It even gave a name to the CIA’s effort to establish contacts with the major media: Operation Mockingbird. Unfortunately virtually no one was able to read the book at the time, as it was immediately forced off the market, only to be republished in 1991. About Paley and Cronkite at CBS, Davis wrote:<br />
<br />
“Paley’s own friendship with Allen Dulles is now known to have been one of the most influential and significant in the communications industry. He provided cover for CIA agents, supplied out-takes of news film, permitted the debriefing of reporters, and in many ways set the standard for cooperation between the CIA and the major broadcast companies which lasted until the mid-1970s… The [Washington] post men continued to see Paley and Cronkite every Christmas at a dinner given by Allen Dulles at a private club called the Alibi… membership is limited to men in or close to intelligence and is by invitation only.” [4]<br />
<br />
Like Paley and Cronkite, Allen Dulles, head of the CIA from 1953 to 1961, could be found at Pilgrims gatherings in New York. The Alibi Club, on the other hand, was part of the “Georgetown Set” in Washington, D.C., an elite, liberal social group with strong anti-communist feelings and close connections to the New York WASP establishment. Members of the Georgetown Set included many senior CIA officers: Frank Wisner, Allen Dulles, James Angleton, Cord Meyer, Richard Bissell, and others. A few newspaper men like Washington Post owner Philip Graham and journalist Joseph Alsop — and apparently Walter Cronkite — were also part of this group. [5]<br />
<br />
Davis and investigative reporters like Carl Bernstein have mentioned the names of important newspaper men who cooperated with the CIA. The CIA rated newspaper men among the best spies; they could go almost anywhere and ask questions without raising suspicions. At the same time newspaper men could be used to disseminate anti-communist propaganda, something which the major media outlets were only too happy to support the CIA with. As Newsweek’s foreign editor stated: “The informal relationship was there. Why have anybody sign anything? What we knew we told them [the CIA] and the State Department…. When I went to Washington, I would talk to Foster or Allen Dulles about what was going on. … We thought it was admirable at the time. We were all on the same side.” [6] All this makes a lot of sense, of course. The only problem here is that if all these media people are so cozy with their CIA and State Department friends, who is going to keep these people in line? Apparently no one, hence the long list of conspiracies in American and world history which the major media outlets prefer not to investigate. Bernstein wrote:<br />
<br />
“Among the executives who lent their cooperation to the Agency were William Paley of the Columbia Broadcasting System, Henry Luce of Time Inc., Arthur Hays Sulzberger of the New York Times, Barry Bingham Sr. of the Louisville Courier‑Journal, and James Copley of the Copley News Service. Other organizations which cooperated with the CIA include the American Broadcasting Company [ABC], the National Broadcasting Company [NBC], the Associated Press, United Press International, Reuters, Hearst Newspapers, Scripps‑Howard, Newsweek magazine, the Mutual Broadcasting System, the Miami Herald and the old Saturday Evening Post and New York Herald‑Tribune… By far the most valuable of these associations, according to CIA officials, have been with the New York Times, CBS and Time Inc… When Newsweek was purchased by the Washington Post Company, publisher Philip L. Graham was informed by Agency officials that the CIA occasionally used the magazine for cover purposes, according to CIA sources.” [7]<br />
<br />
It’s interesting to note that many of these media owners have appeared in the membership lists of the Pilgrims Society. In addition to the earlier-mentioned owners of the New York Times, Time Magazine, the New York Herald Tribune, RCA/NBC, and CBS who were involved with this prestigious Anglo-American society, Barry Bingham, Sr. of the Louisville CourierJournal, Jack R. Howard of Scripps-Howard, and the Muir family of Newsweek were also Pilgrims.<br />
<br />
This last publication, Newsweek, from 1937 to 1961 was dominated by Pilgrims Society members. Besides the Muir influence, Newsweek was owned by the Astor Foundation, named after a family with whole generations of members in both the British as the American Pilgrims. Among the directors of the Astor Foundation also was Gates W. McGarrah [8], a first rate example of Pilgrims influence. McGarrah had been chairman of the Rockefellers’ Chase National Bank, a U.S. member of the General Council of the German Reichsbank, chairman of the New York Federal Reserve, and the first president of the Bank for International Settlements. He also was a grandfather of CIA director Richard Helms.<br />
<br />
In 1961, Newsweek was taken over by the Washington Post, the establishment newspaper from Washington, D.C. It seems the only reason no Washington Post men can be found among the U.S. Pilgrims is because the society is focused primarily on New York high society. There had been plans in the early years to open other Pilgrims clubs in cities as Washington and Paris, but these ideas never manifested [9]. Interestingly, once considered one of the most “reliable” Mockingbird newspapers, in 1992 the Washington Post revealed to its readers the contents of an internal CIA memorandum, written the year before. In part it read:<br />
<br />
“A. Media. 1) Current program: a) PAO [CIA's Public Affairs Office] now has relationships with reporters from every major wire service, newspaper, news weekly, and television network in the nation. This has helped us turn some intelligence failure stories into intelligence success stories, and it has contributed to the accuracy of countless others. In many instances, we have persuaded reporters to postpone, change, hold, or even scrap stories that could have adversely affected national security interests or jeopardized sources and methods.” [10]<br />
<br />
In his 1977 Rolling Stone article, Bernstein mentioned one British-based news agency (with an important New York department) that has been significantly influenced by Pilgrims: Reuters. Among the Pilgrims who have held senior positions in Reuters are Sir Christopher Chancellor, general manager from 1944 to 1959; Lord William Barnetson, chairman from 1968 to 1979; Sir Denis Hamilton, chairman from 1979 to 1985; and directors Lord Thomson of Fleet and Sir David Walker. Information on British Pilgrims is still quite scarce compared to its American counterpart, so this list of senior executives will undoubtedly grow as more historical members become known.<br />
<br />
Additionally, in 1995 a person named Gerald James published his rather controversial book ‘In the Public Interest’. James had been a banker at Barings Brothers (a Pilgrims bank) and a member of the aristocratic Monday Club. He knew many people in intelligence, including the former deputy head of MI6, George Kennedy Young (who became a banker at Kleinwort). James was also chairman of the arms company Astra Holdings. In his biography/expose James wrote how a cabal of City bankers and intelligence men were running the major illegal arms deals, had infiltrated and corrupted smaller companies, and collapsed a number of them after fearing exposure in the wake of the Iraqgate scandal. James’s Astra Holdings had been among these “front companies” which had been collapsed, prompting James to write a book in an effort to clear his name. This turned out to be not entirely without risk: journalists he talked to were intimidated and several important witnesses died under suspicious circumstances. Relevant here is page 138 of his book, in which James describes his experiences with the British media:<br />
<br />
“I have been involved with a number of journalists in researching this story [arms-to-Iraq affair]. At any one time there might be as many as half a dozen following up this or that line of inquiry and we keep constantly in touch by telephone. It is to our mutual benefit, except that the relationship, which has now been going on for for nearly five years, has frequently been marked by sudden changes of policy by newspaper editors or the unexplained removal of a journalist from the case or even from the paper (sometimes to a more exalted position on another where the arms-to-Iraq inquiry is not part of the brief.)… It never really surprised me until I was amazed to receive, from one of my other sources, a list of journalists with affiliations to MI5, on which were posted some of my own contacts in the press, indeed some who had at the beginning made something of a name for themselves on the back of the arms-to-Iraq affair.” [12]<br />
<br />
British Pilgrims can hardly be tied to this British “Mockingbird” program, probably because there’s too little information available on the collusion between British intelligence and the press. The exception might be some of the more reactionary aristocrats in the British Pilgrims, like Sir Frederick Bennett, Lord Chalfont, Lord William Rees-Mogg and their ally in the United States, John Train, though a discussion of these people will have to wait a few paragraphs.<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Solar Cycle 24</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.magazine.noaa.gov/stories/mag227.htm">http://www.magazine.noaa.gov/stories/mag227.htm</a><br />
<br />
The sacred Aztec calendar is properly called the Eagle Bowl. It represents the solar deity Tonatiuh. The amazingly accurate calendar has been in use in various forms for more than 2,000 years. A Zapotec prophecy, based on the Eagle Bowl, states:<br />
<br />
“After Thirteen Heavens of Decreasing Choice, and Nine Hells of Increasing Doom, the Tree of Life shall blossom with a fruit never before known in the creation, and that fruit shall be the New Spirit of Men.”<br />
<br />
The 13 Heavens and 9 Hells were each 52 years long (1,144 years total). Each of the 9 Hells were to be worse than the last. On the final day of the last Hell (August 17, 1987), Tezcatlipoca, god of death, would remove his mask of jade to reveal himself as Quetzelcoatl, god of peace.<br />
<br />
In the mythology of the Aztecs, the first age of mankind ended with the animals devouring humans. The second age was finished by wind, the third by fire, and the fourth by water. The present fifth epoch is called Nahui-Olin (Sun of Earthquake), which began in 3113 BC and will end on December 24, 2011. It will be the last destruction of human existence on Earth. The date coincides closely with that determined by the brothers McKenna in The Invisible Landscape as “the end of history” indicated by their computer analysis of the ancient Chinese oracle-calendar, the I Ching.<br />
<br />
The Mayan calendar is divided into Seven Ages of Man. The fourth epoch ended in August 1987. The Mayan calendar comes to an end on Sunday, December 23, 2012. Only a few people will survive the catastrophe that ensues. In the fifth age, humanity will realize its spiritual destiny. In the sixth age, we will realize God within ourselves, and in the seventh age we will become so spiritual that we will be telepathic. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.greatdreams.com/end-world.htm">http://www.greatdreams.com/end-world.htm</a><br />
<br />
The date December 21st, 2012 A.D. (13.0.0.0.0 in the Long Count), represents an extremely close conjunction of the Winter Solstice Sun with the crossing point of the Galactic Equator (Equator of the Milky Way) and the Ecliptic (path of the Sun), what that ancient Maya recognized as the Sacred Tree. This is an event that has been coming to resonance very slowly over thousands and thousands of years. It will come to resolution at exactly 11:11 am GMT.<br />
<br />
NOTE: The astronomer Philip Plait has stated very clearly that the Mayan calendar does not end in 2012 at all, that it is like the odometer on your car, as each section of the odometer reaches 9 and then clicks over to 0, the next number to it starts a new cycle, so that when all the numbers again reach 0 all the way across the odometer - the last number will change from 1 to 2 and the new cycle starts all over again. <br />

<br />
1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.<br />
<br />
2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.<br />
<br />
3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.<br />
<br />
4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.<br />
<br />
5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.<br />
<br />
6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.<br />
<br />
7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.<br />
<br />
8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.<br />
<br />
9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.<br />
<br />
10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.<br />
<br />
11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)<br />
<br />
12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.<br />
<br />
13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.<br />
<br />
14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.<br />
<br />
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.<br />
<br />
16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.<br />
<br />
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.<br />
<br />
18. Gain control of all student newspapers.<br />
<br />
19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.<br />
<br />
20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.<br />
<br />
21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.<br />
<br />
22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms."<br />
<br />
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art."<br />
<br />
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.<br />
<br />
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.<br />
<br />
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."<br />
<br />
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a "religious crutch."<br />
<br />
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state."<br />
<br />
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.<br />
<br />
30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man."<br />
<br />
31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the "big picture." Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.<br />
<br />
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture--education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.<br />
<br />
33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.<br />
<br />
34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.<br />
<br />
35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.<br />
<br />
36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.<br />
<br />
37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.<br />
<br />
38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].<br />
<br />
39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.<br />
<br />
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.<br />
<br />
41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.<br />
<br />
42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use ["]united force["] to solve economic, political or social problems.<br />
<br />
43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.<br />
<br />
44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.<br />
<br />
45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction [over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction] over nations and individuals alike.<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Thoughts? If you had to measure our current progress....where are we at?<br /><br />Here's a PDF copy</span><br />
<a href="http://www.divineviewpoint.com/communist_goals.pdf">http://www.divineviewpoint.com/communist_goals.pdf</a><br />
<br />
“A global economy requires a global currency.”<br />
— Paul Volcker, former Chair of the US Federal Reserve. <br />
<br />
“The great struggle of history has been for the control over money. It is almost tautological to affirm that to control the production and distribution of money is to control the wealth, resources, and people of the world.”<br />
— Jack Weatherford, anthropologist and author of The History of Money. <br />
<br />
“The control of money and credit strikes at the very heart of national sovereignty.”<br />
— A.W. Clausen, President of Bank of America, in a response to the suggestion of a global central bank. [Clausen later became the President of the World Bank]. <br />
<br />
“Once a nation parts with control of its currency and credit, it matters not who makes that nation’s laws.”<br />
— W.L. Mackenzie King, [former Prime Minister of Canada]. <br />
<br />
1969: “Let me turn from digging away at the opposition to something more positive, and start with the best and worst of international monetary systems. The first-best, in my judgment, is a world money with a world monetary authority.”<br />
— Charles P. Kindleberger, [Professor of Economics, MIT], speaking at a Federal Reserve Bank of Boston conference. <br />
<br />
1984: “I have put forward a radical alternative scheme for the next century: the creation of a common currency for all the industrial democracies with a common monetary policy and a joint Bank of Issue to determine that monetary policy…This proposal is far too radical for the near future, but it could provide a ‘vision’ or goal which can guide interim steps...” <br />
— Richard N. Cooper [Harvard professor], speaking at a Federal Reserved Bank of Boston conference.<br />
<br />
1998: “…the transition to a single currency for the entire world could come with a speed that might surprise many. The world might easily move from having almost 200 currencies today to having one within a decade, and twenty-five years from now, historians would wonder why it took so long to eliminate the Babel of currencies which existed in the twentieth century.” <br />
— Bryan Taylor, Chief Economist at Global Financial Data. <br />
<br />
2001: “When VISA was founded twenty-five years ago, the founders saw the world as needing a Single Global Currency for exchange. Everything we’ve done from a global perspective has been about trying to put one piece in place after another to fulfill that global vision.” <br />
— Sarah Perry, Director of VISA’s Strategic Investment Program. <br />
<br />
2004: “…if the global market economy is to thrive over the decades ahead, a global currency seems the logical concomitant.” <br />
— Martin Wolf, chief economics commentator for the Financial Times, former senior economist at the World Bank. <br />
<br />
Benn Steil, the Director of International Economics at the Council on Foreign Relations, wrote that national money systems should be abandoned, “Since economic development outside the process of globalization is not longer possible…” Stated even more succinctly, “Monetary nationalism is simply incompatible with globalization.” And, “In order to globalize safely, countries should abandon monetary nationalism and abolish unwanted currencies…”<br />
<br />
All of this underscores a strategic reality that can be summed up in three words: Crisis equals opportunity. As banking mogul A.W. Clausen once said, “new comprehensive politico-economic systems across peoples almost always arise out of conquest or common crisis…” <br />
<br />
Robert Mundell, “the father of the euro,” and one of the world’s most respected economists, also views crisis as the starting point for change. In a May, 2007 lecture, Mundell related, “International monetary reform usual becomes possible only in response to a felt need and the threat of a global crisis.”<br />
<br />
This Nobel Prize winner also pointed his finger to the possible trigger event, saying that the “global crisis would have to involve the dollar,” and that a world currency should be viewed as “a contingency” to a global dollar disaster.<br />
<br />
Morrison Bonpasse, President of the Single Global Currency Association (SGCA), a group of economists working towards a world currency, answers that question, “The monetary unions of the twenty-first century, and those which survived the twentieth, are the milestones on the path to the future, and to the Global Monetary Union.”<br />
<br />
Bonpasse elaborates on this point further, <br />
<br />
“Thanks to the success of the European and other monetary unions, we now know how to create and maintain the 3-Gs: a Global Monetary Union, with a Global Central Bank and a Single Global Currency.”<br />
<br />
“The world is ready to begin preparing for a Single Global Currency, just as Europe prepared for the euro and as the Arabian Gulf countries are preparing for their common currency. After the goal of a Single Global Currency is established by countries representing a significant proportion of the world’s GDP, then the project can be pursued like its regional predecessors.” <br />
<br />
Simply put, the regional model becomes the steppingstone to a one-world currency. However, the problem of nationalism prevails. Discussing this “problem,” Bonpasse writes, <br />
<br />
“The task can be stated quite simply: how to move from the current 147 currencies to 1. Developing the political will to overcome the residual strength of nationalism is the major challenge for the movement to a 3-G world. As with the implementation of the euro, the economics and politics of monetary union are inextricably bound together; and the logic of both point toward the 3-G world.<br />
<br />
The question now is not whether the world will adopt a Single Global Currency but When? and How smooth, inexpensive, and planful OR rough, costly and chaotic will the journey be?” [Italics and capitals in original] <br />
<br />
To the internationalist, national sovereignty is the overriding obstacle. In order for a Global Central Bank and world currency to exist, some other political arrangements will have to be formed. Robert Mundell understood this political problem when giving a lecture in 2003 titled, “The International Monetary System and the Case for a World Currency.” His response was frank: “a global single currency could not be achieved without a global government. To enforce a single currency would involve big problems of organization.” <br />
<br />
But will all of this “help the farmer in Africa,” or bring wage equality to the worker’s of the world?<br />
<br />
Probably not: it will, however, give unprecedented powers to an international banking cartel, the likes of which has never been seen or experienced before. As a critic of global banking once wrote, “Money is money, and banking is banking, and neither recognizes any allegiances that don’t bear compound interest.” <br />

<br />
It has been popularly said that religion is responsible for the majority of the world’s conflicts. Posted on a BBC News Talking Point discussion board on the relevance of religion, one commentator boldly asserted, “Just look around the world today. Religion is the cause of all war and hate.”[3]<br />
<br />
Expounding on this line of thinking is an internet petition seeking “world peace” by the outright banning of “organized religion.” This petition, which needs to be viewed for what it is – an exercise in dissent – makes it very clear that organized religion “in all it’s factions, is responsible for most of the worlds wars and the entire ‘War on Terrorism’.” A number of petition signers, some showing immense tolerance by resorting to obnoxious and crude language, repeat the mantra “Religion is the cause of all wars.”[4]<br />
<br />
On a more serious note, Ken Wilber, a contributor to BeliefNet.com writes,<br />
<br />
“Throughout history, religion has been the single greatest source of human-caused wars, suffering, and misery. In the name of God, more suffering has been inflicted than by any other manmade cause…for every year of peace in humankind’s history there have been fourteen years of war, 90% of which have been fought either because of, or under the banner of, God by whatever name.”[5]<br />
<br />
Has religion really inflicted “more suffering” than any other manmade cause? Is this assumption, one shared by a large segment of society, an accurate notion? Certainly it’s a position that’s well ingrained.[6] Demonstrating the imbedded nature of this popular impression, history professor Pat Johnson writes, “I challenge my classes to comment on the following statement: Organized religion has caused more suffering, wars and violence than any other cause. Almost all the students raise their hands in agreement.”[7]<br />
<br />
Logically, if religion has been the major cause of the world’s wars and death, then religion should shoulder the burden of responsibility towards making peace. Today, this rationale underscores much of the global interfaith movement, including the recent United Nations Conference on Interfaith Cooperation for Peace.[8]<br />
<br />
But can the finger of guilt really point to religion as the primary cause of war and strife?<br />
<br />
The Killing Century<br />
<br />
In analysing this hypothesis of religion’s global war guilt, let’s examine the role of religion as the primary killing factor in the bloodiest century of all time – the last one hundred years. As Winston Churchill explained during the MIT Mid-Century Convocation,<br />
<br />
“Little did we guess that what has been called the Century of the Common Man would witness as its outstanding feature more common men killing each other with greater facilities than any other five centuries together in the history of the world.”[9]<br />
<br />
So was religion the prime death factor, the “single greatest source” of war and suffering, for this very cruel and brutal century?<br />
<br />
In order to understand the answer to this question, we need to chart the major wars and human-caused genocides that occurred during this time frame. And in order to do this in the space allotted for this short article, we need a lower stop-limit number – let’s say 1.5 million as a minimum death total.<br />
<br />
Please bear in mind that this chart will not be able to list or separate-out all examples. Some, such as the death figure for World War II, could be broken down into holocaust tabulations, single battle totals, etc – but we’ll try to keep it simple.<br />
<br />
Furthermore, it’s important to note that many historical conflicts and killings lack accurate death tabulations, and in some instances – such as killings done under Stalin and Mao – the numbers given in our chart may actually be too low.<br />
<br />
Other problems arise from the lack of concrete death totals. For example: the Mexican uprisings of 1910-1920 variably runs between 750,000 and 2 million dead, likewise the decades-old Rwanda/Burundi conflict falls into this statistically difficult range. Because of the variance in accounting up to the 1.5 million mark, I will leave out these two examples, along with many others that display complex numerical discrepancies up to the 1.5 million figure.<br />
<br />
However, the following death-inventory will suffice for our brief review.[10] Notice how many of these mass-killing events had classical religion as its central cause. <br />

The sheer horror and brutality of mankind throughout the twentieth century cannot be properly demonstrated in a simplistic chart. However, it’s more than apparent that the principal causations of the majority of these awful events – especially those with death numbers more than five million high – cannot be laid at the feet of classical religion.<br />
<br />
Remember Professor Johnson and his statement, “Organized religion has caused more suffering, wars and violence than any other cause”? Professor Johnson just baited his students, and as the good professor tells us, “Almost all the students raise their hands in agreement.”<br />
<br />
“I then demand that they provide dead bodies as evidence. They usually mention the Crusades and one or two other religious wars they might have heard of but in none of their examples can they come up with a million deaths…I then point out that most of the people who have died as a result of war, have done so in the Twentieth Century and that most of the killing was done in the name of secular ideologies. I then ask them who is the ‘baddest’ of them all. Most guess Hitler. I then tell them that he is rated #3. Some then guess Stalin and I inform them that most scholars place him at #2 with 20 million killed. Almost no one gets #1 who, of course, is Mao who starts with an estimated 40 million. I then point out that the top two were Communists and Hitler was a radical proponent of Social Darwinism. All of these ideologies are based on atheistic systems.”[11]<br />
<br />
Clearly, this “world faith for world peace” assumption is also lacking in credibility. However, this shouldn’t come as a surprise; after all, this flawed unity concept is designed around the first fabrication – the guilt of war.<br />
<br />
It can never be said that a House of Truth is built on lies, yet the perfect dream of world peace is being constructed on that very foundation. Waving the flag of tolerance and solidarity, religion is looking to re-invent itself to a new level of “planetary responsibility” – devoid of truth, logic, and reality.<br />
<br />
Indeed, as Man sacrifices truth in the pursuit of peace, the only peace gained will come at the sacrifice of liberty. Why? Because such a system, misdirected from the onset, can only coerce and enforce. And whenever Man imposes a utopian peace design – that is, the “creation of peace” at the expense of reality – it inevitably becomes a “bloody utopian dream.”[22]<br />
<br />
Paradoxically, by its nature, a “world faith”- world peace structure may actually become a type of self-fulfilling prophecy, ultimately raising the terrifying banner; “Peace is the destruction of all opposition.” <br />

<br />
Another contemporary of Muller, William D. Hitt, wrote in his book The Global Citizen, "As global citizens, we will need a new type of thinking." (21) <br />
<br />
This is the crux of global social change: a "new type of thinking" that bridges international education, global ethics, world political unity, and the emergence of a "planetary spirituality." It is the desire to shape and mold man according to man's image. It is the desire to re-cast history and human endeavor to conform with a centralized-utopian version of a "world society" - a society shaped by propaganda, planetary-correctness, and a faulty and exalted image of man and nature. And finally, when contemplating the move towards this world society and the propaganda role of "international education," consider the words of Scott Nearing, an avid socialist and proponent of world government, <br />
<br />
"The conversion of a continent of localists into a continent of nationalists in a few generations must rank as one of the outstanding achievements of modern times. Indoctrination works. Human loyalties can be and are speedily shifted by experience coupled with propaganda.<br />
<br />
"Worldizing processes are building up a great number and variety of world experiences. Millions of human beings, responding to these experiences, are already world conscious, world minded and prepared to function as citizens in a world society. Such human beings have passed through and graduated from the school of nationalism. They are wordlists. They wait with impatience for the emergence of a world commonwealth." (22) <br />
<br />
As the line between education, "political correctness," and propaganda becomes increasingly blurred, it is essential that we navigate this global maze with sobriety, clear thinking, and an understanding of the forces that are shaping our 21st century. <br />

<br />
To ensure that global sustainable development initiatives achieve fruition, the WEEEC recognized the importance of using public education as an agent for world change. Dennis Chisman and Jack Holbrook, members of the ICASE executive board, presented a chapter in the World '90 report entitled "The Future Direction of Sustainable Development in the Curriculum." In it they explained,<br />
<br />
"The role of the teacher will inevitably have to change. They will become more involved in facilitating changes of attitudes and guiding students to gain values rather than merely teaching factual knowledge." [16] <br />
<br />
Chisman and Holbrook further revealed, "The overall strategy is to design courses so as to prepare for a 'sustainable development' literate society." [17]<br />
<br />
What would learning encompass in the academic world of Chisman and Holbrook? Expanding on the concept of sustainable education, the ICASE board members shared on the importance of global "values" for education, including "population control and support," "intercultural tolerance," "the transfer of appropriate technology," and "environmental literacy." [18] All of these items would eventually make their way into the Rio Earth Summit two years later.<br />
<br />
Disturbing as the WEEEC educational platform was, the most insidious aspect of World '90 was the presentation on creating a "Global Green Constitution." Presented by a Greengrass Institute delegate, the theme of creating a world constitution based on sustainable development principles was given an entire chapter in the WEEEC final report. Spouted as being "a global perestroika," it was explained that this "revolutionary" global green political machine would encompass a form of "human rights." [19] <br />
<br />
"Popular or not, green governments will oppose any culture if it proves to be prejudicial by means of gender, age, colour, race, religion, belief, sexual orientation, mental or physical condition, marital status, family composition, source of income, political belief, nationality, language preference or place of origin." [20] <br />
<br />
The concept of framing a global "green" constitution was directly linked to national education contributions aimed at furthering this new world agenda. As explained in the report, uncooperative nations would not be tolerated, <br />
<br />
"Each nation's degree of dedication to educating the people would be the first indication of green government. The education process would centre on the need for a Global Green Constitution...Eventually, a public referendum would be held in each nation state with the objective of obtaining a simple majority in favour of enshrining a Global Green Constitution. Those nation's governments where a majority have declared for a Global Green Constitution in a referendum vote would indicate that they are prepared to attend a Global Green Constitution Congress...Every nation's government would ultimately be a signator to the Global Green Constitution. Obligation to do so would come from grass roots pressure within democratic societies. Less democratic nations or dictatorships would be brought on side through sanctions." [21] <br />
<br />
Specifying more drastic measures yet, World '90 literally called for a global police state to ensure the complete success of the "New World Agenda," <br />
<br />
"The issues are not about if a global politics is necessary. The question is how do we achieve binding agreements in Law complete with effective programs for applying sanctions against non-compliance that would oblige each nation, regardless of size, to abide by a set of principles that are required to guarantee the survival of life on this earth. Perhaps we will find that there is no other alternative to a system of rigid controls that some would equate to a police state. Unfortunately, in order to save the planet from biocide, there have to be very powerful constraints from doing the 'wrong' things. The constraints must transcend national boundaries, be world-around and enforceable. There would be a need for an agency for preventing eco-vandals from acting unilaterally.<br />
<br />
Enforcement agencies would need the power to act without being invited by the offending nation. Therefore, there needs to be an agency that is acceptable to all nation states on the planet. We can probably accept the fact that there will always be one or more nations that will not go along but there must be effective sanctions in place. If sanctions do not work, then physical occupation and the installation of a World Trusteeship would be imposed upon the offending nations." [22] <br />

<br />
Posted below is a comparison of the original ten planks of the Communist Manifesto written by Karl Marx in 1848, along with the American adopted counterpart of each of the planks...<br />
<br />
1. Abolition of private property and the application of all rent to public purpose.<br />
<br />
The 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution (1868), and various zoning, school & property taxes. Also the Bureau of Land Management.<br />
<br />
2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.<br />
<br />
Misapplication of the 16th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, 1913, The Social Security Act of 1936.; Joint House Resolution 192 of 1933; and various State "income" taxes. We call it "paying your fair share".<br />
<br />
3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.<br />
<br />
We call it Federal & State estate Tax (1916); or reformed Probate Laws, and limited inheritance via arbitrary inheritance tax statutes.<br />
<br />
4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.<br />
<br />
We call in government seizures, tax liens, Public "law" 99-570 (1986);<br />
Executive order 11490, sections 1205, 2002 which gives private land to the Department of Urban Development; the imprisonment of "terrorists" and those who speak out or write against the "government" (1997 Crime/Terrorist Bill); or the IRS confiscation of property without due process.<br />
<br />
5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.<br />
<br />
We call it the Federal Reserve which is a credit/debt system nationally organized by the Federal Reserve act of 1913. All local banks are members of the Fed system, and are regulated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).<br />
<br />
6. Centralization of the means of communication and transportation in the hands of the State.<br />
<br />
We call it the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Department of Transportation (DOT) mandated through the ICC act of 1887, the Commissions Act of 1934, The Interstate Commerce Commission established in 1938, The Federal Aviation Administration, Federal Communications Commission, and Executive orders 11490, 10999, as well as State mandated driver's licenses and Department of Transportation regulations.<br />
<br />
7. Extention of factories and instruments of production owned by the State, the bringing into cultivation of waste lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.<br />
<br />
We call it corporate capacity, The Desert Entry Act and The Department of Agriculture. As well as the Department of Commerce and Labor, Department of Interior, the Evironmental Protection Agency, Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Reclamation, Bureau of Mines, National Park Service, and the IRS control of business through corporate regulations.<br />
<br />
8. Equal liablity of all to labor. Establishment of Industrial armies, especially for agriculture.<br />
<br />
We call it the Social Security Administration and The Department of Labor. The National debt and inflation caused by the communal bank has caused the need for a two "income" family. Woman in the workplace since the 1920's, the 19th amendment of the U.S. Constitution, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, assorted Socialist Unions, affirmative action, the Fedral Public Works Program and of course Executive order 11000.<br />
<br />
9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country by a more equable distribution of the population over the country.<br />
<br />
We call it the Planning Reorganization act of 1949 , zoning (Title 17 1910-1990) and Super Corporate Farms, as well as Executive orders 11647, 11731 (ten regions) and Public "law" 89-136.<br />
<br />
10. Free education for all children in government schools. Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc. etc.<br />
<br />
People are being taxed to support what we call 'public' schools, which train the young to work for the communal debt system. We also call it the Department of Education, the NEA and Outcome Based "Education".<br />

A New Era Begins<br />
<br />
By Sam Webb, National Chair, CPUSA<br />
<br />
(From a speech delivered at a Peoples Weekly World forum in Cleveland, Ohio, January 31, 2009)<br />
<br />
I was standing on the Washington Mall on Inauguration Day, alongside nearly two million other people, and proudly watched the first African American take the oath of office in our nation’s history. That alone made the day deeply memorable, joyful, and historic. But I couldn’t help but think – and I’m sure that millions of others had the same thought – that the transfer of power from Bush to President Obama not only tore down a barrier that once was thought near impenetrable, but also signified the fading away of one era and the beginning of another.<br />
<br />
It was hard not to think on that cold day in our nation’s capital that the worst of the past 30 years of right-wing extremist rule is behind us and that an era of progressive change is within reach, no longer an idle dream.<br />
<br />
Just look at the new lay of the land: a friend of labor and its allies sits in the White House. Larger Democratic majorities control Congress. A feeling of renewal and hope is in the air. Public opinion polls show a high favorability rating for our new President. And the labor and people’s movement that was so instrumental to the election’s outcome, after a short holiday pause, is off and running.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, the Republican Party, notwithstanding its efforts to distance itself from arguably the worst president in our history, is on the defensive. Its grassroots constituency is dispirited. And, its governing philosophy of “free markets”, minimal government, fear, and division, and especially racist division, is discredited.<br />
<br />
Now no one expects that the going will be easy in the coming months and years. There is, after all, eight years of extreme right-wing misrule to clean up. The multinational corporations and banks haven’t gone into hibernation. Right-wing Republicans, while badly weakened, still retain enough influence in Congress and elsewhere to block or slow down progressive measures. And the challenges facing the Obama administration are immense, and none more than the economic crisis.<br />
<br />
If there were such a thing as an economic tsunami, I would say we are experiencing it. Not since the Great Depression has the economy been in such bad shape, which leads many economists to predict that the downturn will be L-shaped, that is, deep and prolonged.<br />
<br />
Furthermore, the economic contraction is worldwide. No country or region will escape its pain and long reach. Nor can any national economy, ours included, hope to make a full recovery without global coordination and cooperation. In an integrated global economy, we either swim together or sink together.<br />
<br />
A new New Deal<br />
<br />
Given this situation, the Obama administration faces daunting challenges. Nevertheless, the new President, in my view, is off to a quick start. In less than two weeks he has:<br />
<br />
* Issued an order to close Guantanamo prison and end torture - a practice that stains our image, violates our constitution, and endangers our troops in the field.<br />
<br />
* Signed the Lilly Ledbetter bill that would give much greater scope to workers’ discrimination claims as well as a bill that would extend health care to millions of children.<br />
<br />
* Released funds to clinics that serve women’s heath care needs in developing countries.<br />
<br />
* Expressed support for higher fuel efficiency standards for motor vehicles—something the United Autoworkers Union (UAW) also supports.<br />
<br />
* Opened up a greatly needed dialogue with the Muslim and Arab world.<br />
<br />
* Dispatched George Mitchell to the Middle East in hopes of mediating the Palestinian-Israeli conflict—a conflict that cannot be solved by military means, but only by negotiation between the Israeli government and the representatives of the Palestinian people with aim of establishing an independent and viable Palestinian state and the right of both states live peacefully and within secure borders.<br />
<br />
* The President met with military generals to map out a withdrawal plan for Iraq.<br />
<br />
Of course, the Obama administration’s immediate challenge will be to revive the economy. And the overarching question is: from where will the economic recovery come from in the near term? The only answer is: through the massive injections of money from the federal government into the economy, into the hands of people who will spend it. Lagging demand for goods and services is the problem.<br />
<br />
In this regard, the President's stimulus bill passed this week in the House should be welcomed and supported. Despite what Republicans say, it is a good bill that will ease the pain of this crisis, create jobs, and begin to re-inflate the economy. Some economists, like Paul Krugman, say that it isn’t enough, that a trillion dollars plus and additional infrastructure spending would be better. I would agree with Krugman, but I also see the current bill as a first installment of the administration’s recovery plan. In fact, Krugman may have the economics right, but the politics wrong.<br />
<br />
President Obama in my opinion would make a mistake if he proceeded like a bull in a china shop. He’s the president of the country, not an op-ed writer for the New York Times, and thus has a different set of considerations and pressures. On the other hand, if the President agrees to too many concession demands from the Republican side it will water down the bill’s stimulus potential and come back to bite him later on.<br />
<br />
I would further add that even if Obama had introduced and passed a bigger stimulus package, there is no guarantee that a full-blooded and sustained recovery of the economy will follow. According to conventional wisdom and mainstream economists, high growth rates, near full employment, and healthy profit rates are the normal condition of a capitalist economy. Departures from this norm, it is said, are only passing moments during which capitalism removes barriers to future growth and creates the conditions for a new expansion that surpasses old peaks in production, employment and profits.<br />
<br />
There is considerable evidence to question this view. Indeed, one has to wonder what the long-run prospects of U.S. and world capitalism are. Was the “golden age” of U.S. capitalism from 1945-1973, during which economic growth rates, investment levels and living standards steadily increased, the norm or the exception to the norm? Will the last thirty years of sluggish and lopsided growth continue, but at a significantly lower level?<br />
<br />
If the answer is that U.S. capitalism is entering a period of long-term stagnation then the economic recovery plan must include not only a sizeable and sustained economic stimulus, but also far-reaching political and economic reforms in order to restructure the economy along new lines. One without the other is not enough. Both economic stimulus and political-economic restructuring are necessary if U.S. economy is to have any chance of resuming a developmental growth path that is robust, sustainable (in a double sense: economically and environmentally) and favors the interests of the working class and its allies.<br />
<br />
If this is the case, the Obama administration and the broad coalition that supports him will almost inevitably have to consider—and they already are—the following measures:<br />
<br />
* Public ownership of the financial system and the elimination of the shadow banking system and exotic derivatives.<br />
<br />
* Public control of the Federal Reserve Bank.<br />
<br />
* Counter-crisis spending of a bigger size and scope to invigorate and sustain a full recovery and meet human needs—something that the New Deal never accomplished.<br />
<br />
* Strengthening of union rights in order to rebalance the power between labor and capital in the economic and political arenas.<br />
<br />
* Trade agreements that have at their core the protection and advancement of international working-class interests.<br />
<br />
* Equality in conditions of life for racial minorities and women.<br />
<br />
* Democratic public takeover of the energy complex as well as a readiness to consider the takeover of other basic industries whose future is problematic in private hands.<br />
<br />
* Turning education, childcare, and healthcare into “no profit” zones.<br />
<br />
* Rerouting investment capital from unproductive investment (military, finance and so forth) to productive investment in a green economy and public infrastructure.<br />
<br />
* Changing direction of our nation’s foreign policy toward cooperation, disarmament, and diplomacy. We can’t have threats, guns and military occupations on the one hand and butter, democracy, goodwill, and peace on the other.<br />
<br />
* Full-scale assault on global warming.<br />
<br />
* Serious and sustained commitment to assisting the developing countries, which are locked in poverty and misery.<br />
<br />
New model of economic governance needed<br />
<br />
Or to approach the same issue in another way: Will the political-economic reforms be modest, or will they be radical in nature, and when taken together, constitute a new model of political-economic governance at the state and corporate level—a new New Deal? By that I mean a reconfiguring of the role and functions of government and corporations so that they favor working people, the racially and nationally oppressed, women, youth, seniors, small business people and other social groupings.<br />
<br />
Such a model would draw from the New Deal experience, but in the end it has to be shaped by today’s conditions and requirements for political and economic advance for the broadest sections of the American people as well as people across the globe.<br />
<br />
The new model of governance wouldn’t be socialist, but it would challenge corporate power, profits and prerogatives.<br />
<br />
Depression conditions prompted President Franklin Roosevelt and his advisers—albeit with a mighty assist from a powerful all-people’s coalition led by the industrial unions and the multiracial working class—to reconfigure the role and functions of the state to the advantage of the ordinary people. This reconfiguration wasn’t easy or done in a day.<br />
<br />
Indeed, it was a hard-fought struggle that combined unity of the Roosevelt-led coalition at every turn, mass mobilization, and a good dose of experimentation. The broad people’s movement would do well to study the New Deal experience, not in a mechanical way, but with an eye to gaining insights for today’s struggles and challenges.<br />

The following is an excerpt from a speech he gave in 1933:<br />
<br />
“War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few at the expense of the masses.<br />
<br />
I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over here to fight, then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the flag.<br />
<br />
I wouldn't go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket.<br />
<br />
There isn't a trick in the racketeering bag that the military gang is blind to. It has its "finger men" to point out enemies, its "muscle men" to destroy enemies, its "brain men" to plan war preparations, and a "Big Boss" Super-Nationalistic-Capitalism.<br />
<br />
It may seem odd for me, a military man to adopt such a comparison. Truthfulness compels me to. I spent thirty- three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country's most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high class muscle- man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism.<br />
<br />
I suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it. Like all the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my own until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service.<br />
<br />
I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.<br />
<br />
During those years, I had, as the boys in the back room would say, a swell racket. Looking back on it, I feel that I could have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents.”<br />

I've been thinking for some time on how to survive this crisis that is upon us. I present my opinion with the admonition that they are a work in process.<br />
<br />
The opinions and perspective may not make sense unless you understand the background of the problem that I hope to address. I have tried to roughly encapsulate it all in one post - Behind the Curtain.<br />
<br />
We are facing the culmination of a plot laid more than a century prior by wicked conspiring men and carried on by their offspring and adopted newcomers to the present day. The central focus being to enslave mankind. The only hope lies in the mercies of God and His revealing to us the end of the story via Revelations. Due to Revelations we know they will fall into the pit they are digging for us.<br />
<br />
That said, how best can we survive the attempt to implement this plot....the digging of the pit? Especially in light of the fact that they plan to exterminate most of the earth's population to sustain their idea of the future (sustainable development)?<br />
<br />
In Marine Corps boot camp they do an exercise called log drills. Log drills teach teamwork. <br />
<br />
Alone not one person is capable of overcoming the challenge of lifting those telephone poles...but as a team they are easily moved about. Each person has to put forth effort and pull their own weight in conjunction with the other members of the team.<br />
<br />
Now to apply this to our dilemma. In this case the log represents debt and economic survival...I believe even physical survival. In order to overcome this obstacle we need to pull together and unite into families, extended families, groups, neighborhoods, and communities.<br />
<br />
Take a few minutes and think about everything you own or assets that you have access to....maybe a lawn mower, washer/dryer, computer, house, garage, etc. Are those assets under utilized? Put that thought in the back of your mind and over the next couple of days pull it out occasionally and reflect upon the "stuff" at your disposal.<br />
<br />
For myself, right off hand, I have 3 vehicles of which only two get driven on a regular basis. Nothing wrong with the third one....just an older car that is paid for. A washer and dryer aren't things one would normally consider but are they run at 100% capacity every day? If you pooled resources between several households could you free up some capital to invest in other needed areas?<br />
<br />
Think about your family members and close friends. If you were to pool your resources together....What could you accomplish?<br />
<br />
The principle to keep in mind is self sufficiency or independence. Combining resources should be a tool to improving long-term independence of the individuals - not enslaving or subjecting people to the voice of the majority.<br />
<br />
Look around your house at the food you have on hand. How long could you survive on what you have in your house? The grocery stores have maybe a week at most without resupply. Even the little mom & pop stores out in the country (town's with less than 1500 people) get a truck at least once, if not twice, a week. The big box chains like Walmart get trucks daily. If there is a hiccup in the supply chain and those trucks stop rolling....How long do you have?<br />
<br />
What if its limited to certain areas like Mexico for example or even closer to home like the State of California? Do you have a means of acquiring fresh fruits and vegetables?<br />
<br />
Now look around your neighborhood, a 5 mile radius, a 25 mile radius, and a 100 mile radius...how are others prepared? Do they have food storage on hand? If things got tight where do you need to watch your back? Who's got your back? <br />
<br />
What would happen if the welfare checks stopped coming for a week, a month or even permanently? What neighborhoods would erupt? What is your proximity to those neighborhoods?<br />
<br />
Here's one state's suggestion on emergency preparedness...<br />
<a href="http://www.codeready.org/">http://www.codeready.org/</a><br />
<br />
Food storage and other emergency preparedness items are the tip of the iceberg in terms of your ability to survive the coming storms. No one can survive the storm alone! Even with a house full of guns n' ammo its a very long shot...no pun intended! <br />
<br />
You can go 3 minutes without air, 3 days without water, and 3 weeks without food. Are you prepared to deal with a range of possible scenarios effecting those three items?<br />
<br />
I put forth that the only way to survive is by being a part of tightly knit communities or groups of people. Whether this be family, faith oriented, or on the community level....there was a reason in the old West that they traveled in wagon trains. We are headed into a new wild West scenario.....its the natural progression of a decaying society.<br />
<br />
Now is the time to get your wagon train together and figure out where you are headed and how you can circle the wagons.<br />
<br />
Now for the challenge or hurdle to this proposal...selfishness. This isn't a time for me-me or I-I. This is time to pull together and unify. This isn't easy. Broach the idea with some close friends or family members....watch the issues surface...What's in it for me? What do I get out of it? How is this fair? You want <span style="font-weight: bold;">me</span> to sacrifice for <span style="font-weight: bold;">you</span>?<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Co-ops have been utilized back to the 18th and 19th centuries. A cooperative is defined as - an autonomous association of persons united voluntarily to meet their common economic, social, and cultural needs and aspirations through a jointly-owned and democratically-controlled enterprise. It is a business organization owned and operated by a group of individuals for their mutual benefit. A cooperative may also be defined as a business owned and controlled equally by the people who use its services or who work at it. Cooperative enterprises are the focus of study in the field of cooperative economics.<br />
<br />
A group of independents come together to form a business that will benefit all of the individuals. Used predominantly in agriculture in the US it is another viable method of working together to accomplish something individually difficult or impossible.<br />
<br />
It is critical that you select individuals or parties that will take one for the team...110% committed to the success and survival of everyone....even if that means they could lose out on one personal aspect or another.<br />
<br />
This isn't communism or socialism. Socialism or democracy is really just a stepping stone or transitioning system from a republic to communism or oligarchy. Either way the power to control economic dispersion is placed in the hands of a few. That is not the goal.<br />
<br />
The goal is to survive and after that to empower the individual to become increasingly more independent - thereby providing freedom from debt, hunger, weather, etc. Basically the profit from everyone's efforts goes to support the survival of all individuals. When there is excess beyond the survival needs of the group that capital is invested to produce greater benefit for the overall group. The greater the independence of the individuals the greater the ability to weather the storm.<br />
<br />
This is nothing new. It has been done in one form or another throughout the ages. Examples abound...Amish, Patels, Mafia, etc. <br />
<br />
The Amish have been successful despite archaic machinery and technology. They continue to expand and buy up new farm land for new families. They continue to be profitable.<br />
<br />
The Patel's started with nothing as immigrants to the United States and bought a hotel the family operated. As economic success came they expanded out buying more hotels. Currently 1/3 of the hotels in the United States are owned by a Patel. <br />
<br />
The Mafia is not a "good" example but one nonetheless that utilizes the family concept to further their aims. Since they are thugs and thieves they must bind themselves together in such a way to ensure allegiance despite their lack of personal character...hence the blood oaths and death squads for those who betray or try to leave. Sure they kill each other in their quests for power and wealth but they band together to prevent outsiders from thwarting their aims and to accomplish their skulduggery.<br />
<br />
I'm not suggesting we follow the Mafia model but simply demonstrating that the recommendation is nothing profound or new and ultimately, it works.<br />
<br />
This is a big step and requires commitment. The best analogy that I can think of is a marriage. In a marriage two people covenant, meaning a solemn contract, oath, or bond (I define it as a earnest or serious promise made before witnesses)to love and support each other - typically until death. If each person goes into the marriage with the vow to give 110% no matter what the other partner may contribute...odds are that it will succeed. Selfishness in one form or another is the destroyer of marriage 99% of the time.<br />
<br />
There are two differences between the oath that the Mafia takes and what a group following my suggestion would take: <br />
<br />
1) The goal of the oath - Mafia (wickedness or the selfish acquisition of another individual's property through coercion, thuggery, theft, violence, etc in violation of the law's of the land) <span style="font-weight: bold;">vs.</span> economic prosperity of the group through hard work, investment, etc <span style="font-style: italic;">i.e. the trade of labor or services in exchange for payment to which both parties agree to and benefit from the transaction</span>; <br />
<br />
2) The outcome of breaking the oath - Mafia (death <span style="font-style: italic;">i.e. blood oath</span>) vs. letting the person leave of their own free will and accord with an arrangement agreed upon at the beginning of entering into the oath <span style="font-style: italic;">i.e. with equivalent of initial contribution, just free to leave, or with some percentage of the groups assets, etc. (something fair, decent, and agreed upon before hand)</span>.<br />
<br />
To each his own but I believe the goal should be to survive in as decent and wholesome a manor as possible. Is it worth even existing if we don't? Personally, I like to be able to look behind the eyes in the mirror everyday and not be ashamed of what I see.<br />
<br />
I believe if we do pull together and unify in the cause of economic survival, freedom, and wholesome living that we will ultimately be the solution for the problems facing us. Ultimately society begins and ends with the family unit.<br />
<br />
This time of difficulty is an opportunity to dig deep within ourselves and see what we are really made of. A time to reach out to our friends and loved ones to lift them up and help them overcome the difficulties that are upon them. A time to unite in defense of our economic survival, our freedoms, and our way of life. A time to be smart and profitable with what we have been blessed with.<br />
<br />
I'm not one to casually espouse religion....but may I offer this - I know God exists. I know He hears and answers prayers. I know that when the world seems ready to collapse around you and life is coming at you hard and fast...He is there for you. He is simply a prayer away. He should be the first person you turn to for answers and I know He will answer those that sincerely seek His counsel. All that is left then is to follow the direction given....and continue to conduct ourselves on a daily basis in a manor that we are able to continue to receive His counsel to guide us. May God be with you and support you in your righteous endeavors to survive the trials ahead!<br />

My curiosity peaked, I engaged him in a discussion. Seems that he had a relative who quite the Freemasons when he discovered the anti-Christian aspects of it, and talked of the secret agenda that the highest ranks work toward.<br />
<br />
This brings up two good questions:<br />
<br />
* Are the Freemasons a Satanist organization?<br />
<br />
* Are they involved in a conspiracy to "take over the world?"<br />
<br />
On the face of it, these quips have all of the hallmarks of urban legend. They are repeated by word of mouth often, the details change in the many renditions, and (perhaps above all else) it makes a great story.<br />
<br />
The following abstract is a condensed version of "The Invisible Second Rung of Government" published in _Conspiracy Nation_ by an author who wishes to remain anonymous. He cites in his references the following book: Kah, Gary H., En Route to Global Occupation, Lafayette, Louisiana, Huntington House Publishers, 1992. Kah is a high ranking government liaison and author.<br />
<br />
Kah's theories on the origins in intent of Freemasonry are by no means radical. Scores of other serious scholars of the subject have reached identical conclusions, tying together the Gnostics, the Knight Templars, the Freemasons, and Adam Wieshaupt's in- famous Illuminati.<br />
<br />
DISCLAIMER: I do not want to offend anybody who is in the lower (under 32nd degree) ranks of Freemasonry. The bulk of the or- ganization is, undoubtedly, a collection of loving and hard working altruists devoted to community service and the common good. Yet, for exactly that reason, it stands as a perfect 'cover' for one of the most evil conspiracies to plague our troubled planet.<br />
<br />
[ ---------- begin excerpt ---------- ]<br />
<br />
The author's investigation into Freemasonry included interviewing former and current members, some of whom had reached the level of either Thirty-Second or Thirty-Third degree. "The testimonies of current Masons differed drastically from those of Masons who had left the Order. Current members expressed no knowledge whatsoever of any higher religious aims of the Order. They were fiercely loyal to the lodge and told me that Freemasonry was nothing more than an international secret fraternity based on good works. Former Masons, on the other hand, offered views that could not have been more opposite from those of their counterparts. They told me that the organization was anti-Christ and that it was dangerous, particularly in its higher levels, citing the previous as their main reason for leaving, adding that it was Luciferically-inspired....[Regarding the discrepancy] I concluded that current members either would not reveal what they knew because of the oaths of secrecy they had taken or else they truly were unaware of these things, not yet having reached a level where they were exposed to the underlying purpose of their Order." One researcher had gathered secret Masonic materials and writings for over twenty years 'from widows of deceased Masons who were unaware of the significance of the Order and its literature.' The Illuminati and Knights Templars received repeated mention throughout, confirming that Freemasonry is a continuation of the Illuminati.<br />
<br />
Historically, the high level Masons (above Thirty-Third degree) took their teachings from the Illuminati, who in turn took their teachings from the Knights Templars, who in turn took their teachings from the Gnostics. The Gnostics believed God had two sons, Satanael, the elder son, and Jesus, the younger son. Satanael, 'filled with pride, he rebelled against his Father and fell from Heaven,' creating the visible world, 'man, and the serpent which became his minister.' Later Christ came to earth in order to show men the way to Heaven, but His death was ineffectual, for even by descending into Hell He could not wrest the power from Satanael. This belief in the impotence of Christ and the necessity therefore for placating Satan, not only 'Prince of this world,' but its creator, led to the further doctrine that Satan, being all-powerful, should be adored and worshipped.<br />
<br />
The Knights Templars were initially a religious and military organization during the crusades, composed of nobles who were 'granted favors by many European rulers and gained possession of property throughout the continent. Through gifts of land and money, the Templars became extremely wealthy and powerful.' By 1300 'the Templars, through their enormous wealth and widespread organization, had become the bankers of Europe....'<br />
<br />
According to an official text of the Masons, Morals and Dogma, 'Their watchword was, to become wealthy in order to buy the world.' Later the King of France arrested the Knights Templars and conducted an investigation. 'The knights confessed to a variety of notorious crimes and admitted to taking blasphemous oaths against Jesus Christ upon admission into the order.' These crimes consisted of spitting upon the crucifix, committing obscenities, and practicing unnatural vices (sodomy). The Pope intervened to protect his papal jurisdiction. Later, due to mounting public pressure, he launched his own investigation for fear the King's had involved torture. The Pope's investigation revealed the same results. In front of witnesses and without torture, the knights admitted to abominations, indecencies, and obscenities. "The Knights Templars, as it turned out, had been masters of deception, expert in duplicity, appearing to serve Christ on the surface while worshipping Lucifer within their inner rites." Morals and Dogma confirmed that they 'had two doctrines, one concealed and reserved for the Masters...the other public.' The Pope abolished the order. It then went underground, trusting its dangerous secrets only to those who had passed successfully through a series of degrees. Hundreds of years later, they surfaced again, this time as a benevolent organization of good works, taking over the stone mason guilds of Europe, since the original Knights Templars had viewed themselves as grand builders and had with their riches built many castles and estates. The stone mason guilds were eager to make the union because they were at that time in danger of going under due to their shrinking numbers. The transition was successful with the public viewing it favorably as an organization of simple good works.<br />
<br />
By 1776, Adam Weishaupt, a famous Mason, had developed the Illuminati, a secret society within a secret society. One Masonic historian himself has stated that the goals include 'found[ing] a new Hierarchy, to overturn all authority, and to press down all the Social Order under the level of Equality.' Another Masonic historian stated 'the express aim of the Order was to abolish Christianity, and overturn all civil government.' In Weishaupt's own words, the Illuminati 'will by degrees, and in silence, possess themselves of the government of the States, and make use of those means for this purpose....' Around 1782, Weishaupt 'succeeded at forging an alliance between illuminized Freemasonry and the growing Rothschild banking network, thereby giving the Order the financial means to begin to carry out its plans.' By making an alliance with international financiers, 'it took root, it grew, it flourished, it gathered into itself more men of royal and noble titles than were possessed by the Hohenzollern family; even the Jesuits joined it.' Weishaupt convinced many Christian leaders to join by holding out the Illuminati as a Christian organization with the express purpose of unifying the world for the sake of Christ. The World Council of Churches, 'an organization that is strongly influenced by Freemasonry,' continues Weishaupt's work by promoting interfaith unity despite the requisite compromise of each individual faith. Weishaupt himself wrote of his sarcastic glee in getting a famous Protestant minister to join by believing that the Illuminati were genuinely Christian, "O Man, Man! To what may'st thou not be persuaded."<br />
<br />
During the 1800's, as the United States began to emerge as a world power, the Illuminati shifted its attention from Europe to the U.S. "In fact, many of this country's political founding fathers were Masons. Most of them, like George Washington, were decent men who knew of no higher aims of the Order and who even spoke out against the activities of the Illuminati."<br />
<br />
Albert Pike, an illuminized Freemason, stated in the 1800's, "The blind Force of the people is a Force that must be economized, and also managed....It must be regulated by Intellect [a reference to the Illuminati or the highest adepts of Freemasonry]....When all these Forces are combined, and guided by the Intellect, and regulated by the RULE of Right, and Justice....the great revolution prepared for by the ages will begin to march. It is because Force is ill regulated that revolutions prove failures." Pike authored a book called "The Book of Apadno, which 'contains the prophecies concerning the reign of the Anti-Christ from the Satanic point of view.'" He also organized many headquarters around the world "for the purpose of gathering information vital to political and propaganda efforts." Speaking as the leader of all Freemasonry, Pike said, "We worship a God, but it is the God that one adores without superstition....The Masonic religion should be, by all of us initiates of the high degrees, maintained in the purity of the Luciferic doctrine."<br />
<br />
"The success of a conspiracy depends on its ability to conceal from the masses the truth of what they are working for. The conspirators will, therefore, bring no more people into their inner circle than what is absolutely necessary for the success of their mission." This is why the higher Masonic degrees cannot be earned by good works, but only conferred from above. The lower Masonic degrees, earned by countless hours of establishing hospitals or helping the crippled, serve as a shield made up of innocents between the public and the true intentions of the Masonic hierarchy.<br />
<br />
The role of the Soviet Union in the development of a new world order involves the birth of communism. Karl Marx was hired by the League of Just Men, a branch organization of the Illuminati, to write the Communist Manifesto and to penetrate and subvert the labor movement in France. In the early days of the revolution, "the revolutionaries called themselves Spartacusts (after Adam Weishaupt's Illuminati pseudonym) before becoming known as Bolsheviks and later as Communists." There were other Illuminati who infiltrated the labor movement. On the labor movement's committee charged with the responsibility of making the movement international in scope were a personal secretary to one of the two highest-ranking officials of the Illuminati, a French Freemason, and the secretary of the English Masons' Union.<br />
<br />
Speaking of the communist revolution, Churchill said:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
"From the days of Spartacus-Weishaupt, to those of Karl Marx, to those of Trotsky...this worldwide conspiracy for the overthrow of civilization and for the reconstitution of society on the basis of arrested development and envious malevolence, and impossible equality has been steadily growing. It has been the mainspring of every subversive movement during the nineteenth century...."</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
The larger plan was to create and spark war, acts of terrorism, and military aggression so that the people of the world would conclude that nationalism was responsible for war. Therefore, the goal would become elimination of national boundaries and acceptance of an authority that would speak for a new world order, promising world peace. "There is direct evidence to suggest that the hidden powers have been planning for the eventual merger of the United States and the Soviet Union all along, but not until after a prolonged period of Cold War had accomplished their objectives. This evidence surfaced during the Reece Committee investigations into tax-exempt foundations during the 1950's." Norman Dodd, the director of research for the committee, had a conversation with H. Rowan Gaither, president of the Ford Foundation and a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. Gaither said, "All of us here at the policymaking level have had experience, either in O.S.S. (Office of Strategic Services) or the European Economic Administration, with directives from the White House. We operate under those directives here. Would you like to know what those directives are?" Dodd said that he would. Gaither then said, "The substance of them is that we shall use our grant-making power so to alter life in the United States that we can be comfortably merged with the Soviet Union." When Dodd requested him to repeat this before the Reece Committee, Gaither declined, "That we would not think of doing."<br />
<br />
As a religion, Masonry exhorts its members to omit Christ's name from prayer. One Masonic instruction says, "To offer prayer in the name of Christ, is contrary to the universality of Masonry." Their source of power is claimed to be Lucifer. Masonic books say, "LUCIFER, the Light-bearer!...Lucifer, the Son of the Morning! Is it he who bears the Light?...Doubt it not!" Another states, "The seething energies of Lucifer are in [the Mason's] hands and before he may step onward and upward, he must prove his ability to properly apply (this) energy." Albert Pike said, "Lucifer is God....Lucifer, God of Light and God of Good, is struggling for humanity against Adonay [The God of the Christians] the God of Darkness and Evil." Pike also states that the goals of Masonry are "the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time." One former member says, "I can tell you that the Lodges always make a mockery of Christian Holy Days."<br />
<br />
Because of the severity of the oaths of secrecy taken by Masonic members (i.e., "binding myself under no less penalty than to have my left breast torn open and my heart and vitals taken from thence and thrown over my left shoulder and carried into the valley of Jehosaphat, there to become a prey to the wild beasts of the field, and vulture of the air if ever I should prove willfully guilty of violating any part of this my solemn oath...."), very few defect and even fewer defectors are willing to talk. One such courageous man, Captain William Morgan, wrote a book exposing the Masons. He was kidnapped and drowned in the Niagara River in Batavia, New York by several Masons in 1826. The publisher of the book was also kidnapped, but outraged citizens of Batavia rescued him in time. Following this incident, 45,000 Masons withdrew their membership. In 1848 one of the Masons who had been appointed to assassinate Morgan gave a death bed confession of the entire incident. Charles Finney wrote that Morgan "was aware, as Masons generally were at the time, that nearly all the civil offices in the country were in the hands of Freemasons; and that the press was completely under their control....Can [any Mason] who has taken and still adheres to the oath of the Royal Arch degree [a particular Masonic degree] be trusted in office? He swears to espouse the cause of a companion of this degree when involved in any difficulty, so far as to extricate him from the same, whether he be right or wrong. He swears to conceal his crimes, murder and treason not excepted."<br />
<br />
One member included in a Masonic book about famous Masons is John Marshall, a Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court. Shortly before his death, he said,<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
"The institution of Masonry ought to be abandoned, as one capable of producing much evil, and incapable of producing any good which might not be affected by open means."</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
Many other powerful politicians have campaigned against Masonry, including William Seward (Secretary of State under Lincoln), Daniel Webster, Ulysses S. Grant, John Adams, James Madison, John Quincy Adams, and Millard Fillmore. Anton LaVey, the founder and leader of The Church of Satan, gives repeated reference to Freemasonry in his book: "Satanic Ritual is a blend of Gnostic, Cabbalistic, Hermetic, and Masonic elements...."<br />

Some pretty heavy stuff, no doubt.<br />

At this point, I don't know what to think. If some kind reader could refute all of this for me, it would ease my worried mind.<br />

<br />
Albert Pike was born on December 29, 1809, in Boston, and was the oldest of six children born to Benjamin and Sarah Andrews Pike. He studied at Harvard, and later served as a Brigadier-General in the Confederate Army. After the Civil War, Pike was found guilty of treason and jailed, only to be pardoned by fellow Freemason President Andrew Johnson on April 22, 1866, who met with him the next day at the White House. On June 20, 1867, Scottish Rite officials conferred upon Johnson the 4th to 32nd Freemasonry degrees, and he later went to Boston to dedicate a Masonic Temple.<br />
<br />
Pike was said to be a genius, able to read and write in 16 different languages, although I cannot find a record anywhere of what those languages were. In addition, he is widely accused of plagiarism, so take with a pinch of salt. At various stages of his life we was a poet, philosopher, frontiersman, soldier, humanitarian and philanthropist. A 33rd degree Mason, he was one of the founding fathers, and head of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, being the Grand Commander of North American Freemasonry from 1859 and retained that position until his death in 1891. In 1869, he was a top leader in the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. <br />

<br />
Albert Pike (December 29, 1809–April 2, 1891) was an attorney, soldier, writer, and Freemason. Pike is the only Confederate military officer or figure to be honored with an outdoor statue in Washington, D.C. (in Judiciary Square).<br />
<br />
After Pea Ridge, Pike was faced with charges that his troops had scalped soldiers in the field. Maj. Gen. Thomas C. Hindman also charged Pike with mishandling of money and material, ordering his arrest.[citation needed] Both these charges were later found to be considerably lacking in evidence; nevertheless Pike, facing arrest, escaped into the hills of Arkansas, sending his resignation from the Confederate Army on July 12.[citation needed] He was at length arrested on November 3 under charges of insubordination and treason, and held briefly in Warren, Texas, but his resignation was accepted on November 11 and he was allowed to return to Arkansas.[3]<br />
<br />
He had in the interim joined a Masonic Lodge and become extremely active in the affairs of the organization, being elected Sovereign Grand Commander of the Scottish Rite's Southern Jurisdiction in 1859.[citation needed] He remained Sovereign Grand Commander for the remainder of his life (a total of thirty-two years), devoting a large amount of his time to developing the rituals of the order.[citation needed] Notably, he published a book called Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry in 1871, of which there were several subsequent editions.<br />
<br />
Pike died in Washington, D.C., aged 81, and was buried at Oak Hill Cemetery (against his wishes—he had left instructions for his body to be cremated).[3] In 1944 his remains were moved to the House of the Temple, headquarters of the Southern Jurisdiction of the Scottish Rite.<br />

<br />
Albert Pike was a High ranking Freemason and a Southern Confederate General, who in the closing days of the Civil War helped to start a 'terror' campaign against Black Slaves. After the Civil War this terror activity grew and was transformed into what was known by, and is still known today as the Ku Klux Klan. The formation of this 'Secret Group' was in response to the Emancipation Proclamation issued by President Abraham Lincoln, who was Assassinated by Rome and its Jesuit Order, shortly after accepting his second term as US President.<br />
<br />
While it is heavily rumored and suspected that Pike helped to form the Ku Klux Klan, at this time this can not be entirely proven per se' (As in smoking gun proof!), although the heavy preponderance of the evidence does strongly suggest this.<br />
<br />
The Ku Klux Klan had become very powerful in Southern States, Through the Freemason 'network', and has Infested at all levels, Local, Civic, State and Federal Government bodies.<br />
This power has extended well into the Political Scene of America in the 20th Century.<br />
<br />
(and is still with us Today)<br />
<br />
By the late 19th Cent, the Klan had also started to 'expand' beyond the Southern States into the North, Mid-west, and also into the Western Territories. By the 1880's Albert Pike himself had become the Top '33rd Degree Freemason' in the World, His title had now become "Grand Supreme Pontiff " which is an ancient Babylonian title. Pontiff also = Pope, there is a very strong Jesuit connection to all of this. His (Pikes) power and Influence now had a Global reach, it was during this time that Pike wrote his now Infamous book 'Morals and Dogma', Authored in 1889, and is still in use today. Currently considered the "Freemason Bible". Of which I myself have a copy, dated at 1919. which puts this Book/Publication at its 2nd Edition printing. As a passing thought or note; If any of you good Brothers and Sisters will notice, assuming you get the chance to get your hands on a "Morals and Dogma" you will find that these books ALWAYS say...for the 'Southern Jurisdiction' of the United States!<br />
<br />
I only bring this to your attention because I find it most interesting that even the most competent of researchers whom are looking into the Ku Klux Klan connection seem to miss this point. No I'm not saying that this in its self is a conspiracy, I find it (again) most interesting that this point is rarely if ever mentioned, which I feel is a strong indicator of an obvious Ku Klux Klan connection! <br />
<br />
On 14 July, 1889 Pike wrote a letter to his friend "Mazzini" (pictured above) who delivered his message too the the Masonic 23 "Supreme Council's".<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.saintsagainsttyranny.com/Albert%20Pike.htm">http://www.saintsagainsttyranny.com/Albert%20Pike.htm</a><br />
<br />
Albert Pike received a vision, which he described in a letter that he wrote to Mazzini, dated August 15, 1871. This letter graphically outlined plans for three world wars that were seen as necessary to bring about the One World Order, and we can marvel at how accurately it has predicted events that have already taken place.<br />
Pike's Letter to Mazzini<br />
<br />
It is a commonly believed fallacy that for a short time, the Pike letter to Mazzini was on display in the British Museum Library in London, and it was copied by William Guy Carr, former Intelligence Officer in the Royal Canadian Navy. The British Library has confirmed in writing to me that such a document has never been in their possession. Furthermore, in Carr's book, Satan, Prince of this World, Carr includes the following footnote:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
"The Keeper of Manuscripts recently informed the author that this letter is NOT catalogued in the British Museum Library. It seems strange that a man of Cardinal Rodriguez's knowledge should have said that it WAS in 1925".</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
It appears that Carr learned about this letter from Cardinal Caro y Rodriguez of Santiago, Chile, who wrote <span style="font-style: italic;">The Mystery of Freemasonry Unveiled</span>.<br />
<br />
To date, no conclusive proof exists to show that this letter was ever written. Nevertheless, the letter is widely quoted and the topic of much discussion.<br />
<br />
Following are apparently extracts of the letter, showing how Three World Wars have been planned for many generations.<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
"<span style="font-weight: bold;">The First World War</span> must be brought about in order to permit the Illuminati to overthrow the power of the Czars in Russia and of making that country a fortress of atheistic Communism. The divergences caused by the "agentur" (agents) of the Illuminati between the British and Germanic Empires will be used to foment this war. At the end of the war, Communism will be built and used in order to destroy the other governments and in order to weaken the religions." 2</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
Students of history will recognize that the political alliances of England on one side and Germany on the other, forged between 1871 and 1898 by Otto von Bismarck, co-conspirator of Albert Pike, were instrumental in bringing about the First World War.<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
"<span style="font-weight: bold;">The Second World War</span> must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences between the Fascists and the political Zionists. This war must be brought about so that Nazism is destroyed and that the political Zionism be strong enough to institute a sovereign state of Israel in Palestine. During the Second World War, International Communism must become strong enough in order to balance Christendom, which would be then restrained and held in check until the time when we would need it for the final social cataclysm." 3</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
After this Second World War, Communism was made strong enough to begin taking over weaker governments. In 1945, at the Potsdam Conference between Truman, Churchill, and Stalin, a large portion of Europe was simply handed over to Russia, and on the other side of the world, the aftermath of the war with Japan helped to sweep the tide of Communism into China. <br />
<br />
(Readers who argue that the terms Nazism and Zionism were not known in 1871 should remember that the Illuminati invented both these movements. In addition, Communism as an ideology, and as a coined phrase, originates in France during the Revolution. In 1785, Restif coined the phrase four years before revolution broke out. Restif and Babeuf, in turn, were influenced by Rousseau - as was the most famous conspirator of them all, Adam Weishaupt.)<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
"<span style="font-weight: bold;">The Third World War</span> must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the "agentur" of the "Illuminati" between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time." 4</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
Since the terrorist attacks of Sept 11, 2001, world events, and in particular in the Middle East, show a growing unrest and instability between Modern Zionism and the Arabic World. This is completely in line with the call for a Third World War to be fought between the two, and their allies on both sides. This Third World War is still to come, and recent events show us that it is not far off.<br />

<br />
It was in 1905 that the Neale Publishing Company, New York and Washington, published Ku Klux Klan: Its Origin, Growth and Disbandment, written and edited by Walter L. Fleming, incorporating earlier published material by J.C. Lester and D.L. Wilson. Historian Walter Fleming's introduction to this 1905 book explains that he has been given "information in regard to Ku Klux Klan, by many former members of the order, and by their friends and relatives." Dr. Fleming states that "General Albert Pike, who stood high in the Masonic order, was the chief judicial officer of the Klan." On a page of illustrations of important founders of the KKK, Dr. Fleming places General Pike's portrait in the center, makes it larger than the six others on the page, and repeats this information as a caption: "General Albert Pike, chief judicial officer". Dr. Fleming attaches as an appendix to his book, a KKK "prescript" or secret constitution which had then recently been discovered. This document sets forth the regulations of the Klan's "judiciary"' department, over which Albert Pike ruled. This is the internal disciplinary or counterintelligence department. It also corresponds to Pike and the Klan's influence over the regular court system and the legal profession in the post-civil War southern states.<br />
<br />
As the boss of all the southern secret societies and simultaneously president of the Tennessee Bar Association, Pike was the grand strategist of Klan "justice." It is to be stressed that Walter Fleming's book was not a slander or hatchet job against Albert Pike. Though it revealed much important data for the first time, it placed the KKK and Pike in the most favorable possible light. The book was a hit among diehard Confederates and Anglo-Saxon "race patriots," and it launched Fleming's career as the dean of southern historians. Fleming became the leading apologist for the KKK, and was the father of the modern historical line that Reconstruction was a corrupt oppression of the South. In September 1903, Fleming had written in the Journal of the Southern History Association: "The very need for such an organization in the disordered conditions of the time caused the Dens [KKK local units] to begin to exercise the duties of a police patrol for regulating the conduct of thieving and impudent negroes and similar "loyal' whites...." Dr. Fleming's biases have not hurt his reputation with established authorities. The National Cyclopedia of American Biography calls his 1905 Ku Klux Klan history "an authoritative account of that organization." The Dictionary of American Biography states bluntly: "Fleming covered the Civil War and Reconstruction in the South more fully than any other man. His works are characterized by ... scholarly objective. A Southerner, Fleming wrote of the sectional conflict with Southern sympathies yet he was more objective than most Southerners of his generation. The historiography of the Civil War and Reconstruction owes much to his indefatigable research, his breadth of scholarship, and power of interpretation." Basing his career on his defense of Pike's KKK, Fleming became dean of arts and sciences at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee.<br />
<br />
Pike's Tennessee Klan Command<br />
<br />
It was in Nashville that Albert Pike and other Confederate generals met in 1867 to form a southern states-wide terrorist KKK, expanding the little project they had started two years before in Pulaski, Tenn. The organization he formed in Nashville designated Pike its chief judiciary officer, and its Grand Dragon for Arkansas.<br />
<br />
As owner-publisher of the Memphis, Tennessee, Daily Appeal, Albert Pike wrote in an editorial on April 16, 1868:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
"With negroes for witnesses and jurors, the administration of justice becomes a blasphemous mockery. A Loyal League of negroes can cause any white man to be arrested, and can prove any charges it chooses to have made against him. ...The disenfranchised people of the South ... can find no protection for property, liberty or life, except in secret association.... We would unite every white man in the South, who is opposed to negro suffrage, into one great Order of Southern Brotherhood, with an organization complete, active, vigorous, in which a few should execute the concentrated will of all, and whose very existence should be concealed from all but its members." </blockquote>
<br />
<br />
(<span style="font-style: italic;">A copy of that issue of Pike's paper may be viewed at the Library of Congress, as may the books mentioned in this article.</span>)<br />
<br />
Left: The Albert Pike Memorial Room inside the Supreme Council 33° Temple, which itself is located 13 blocks directly north of the White House in Washington D.C..<br />
<br />
But it was as the Sovereign Grand Commander of the Scottish Rite, and the recognized boss of the southern white masonic order, that Pike exercised the great clandestine power that welded the KKK together. Dr. Walter Fleming designates Confederate Major James R. Crowe as the pre-eminent source for his 1905 KKK History, and describes Crowe as one of the original KKK founders in Pulaski. Fleming says that Major Crowe "held high rank in the Masonic order." In his honor roll of "well-known members of the Klan," Dr. Fleming places "General John C. Brown, of Pulaski, Tennessee" and "Colonel Joseph Fussell, of Columbia, Tennessee."<br />
<br />
General Brown and Colonel Fussell, like Major Crowe, are identifiable as soldiers of Albert Pike's masonic order. General Brown had been a master mason in the Pulaski lodge for 15 years when the KKK was formed there, and became grand master of Tennessee Masons and governor of Tennessee during the Klan's era of power. Colonel Fussell was commandant of Tennessee's masonic Knights Templar during the Klan rule. The preceding masonic information is taken from Tennessee Templars: A Register of Names with Biographical Sketches of the Knights Templar of Tennessee by James D. Richardson. This James D. Richardson was himself the Commandant of Knights Templar and Grand Master of Masons in Tennessee, and was speaker of the Tennessee House of Representatives during the era of the Klan power. This same James D. Richardson was Albert Pike's successor as commander of the southern Scottish Rite masons. It was this same Richardson who ordered the Pike statue to be erected in Washington, D.C. It was Richardson who, as a U.S. congressman from Tennessee, introduced into the U.S. House of Representatives the infamous 1898 resolution: It called for the federal government to provide federal land to Richardson's masonic organization, on which to put up their statue honoring the master strategist of KKK terror. <br />
<br />
The KKK on Parade<br />
<br />
Susan Lawrence Davis's 1924 Authentic History, Ku Klux Klan, 1865-1877, repeats the pattern Fleming created in 1905, revealing Pike's KKK role but treating him and the Klan sympathetically. The Davis book was written to celebrate the new, 20th-century KKK, which was just then staging full-dress mass marches in Washington and northern cities such as Detroit. In her chapter on General Pike's leadership of the Klan, Miss Davis applauds Pike's clever stewardship of the KKK secret organization. She reproduces in her KKK history an oil portrait of Albert Pike given to her for the KKK book by Pike's son. <br />
<br />
The Tragic Era<br />
<br />
The same is true of other book-length histories of the Klan and numerous published biographies of Albert Pike: Pike's role as Klan leader or KKK boss of Arkansas is discussed, but treated as if KKK terrorist murder of African-Americans was "regrettable" but "only natural" and "understandable." In his book, The Tragic Era, Claude Bowers, who served many years as the U.S. ambassador to Spain and to Chile, described Albert Pike as one of the handful of distinguished, respectable founders of the KKK and the Klan's leader in Arkansas.<br />
<br />
Bowers describes the KKK as patriotic southerners defending their way of life from out-of-control blacks and northerners.<br />
<br />
Bowers wrote that much of the KKK's alleged violence was actually perpetrated by Negroes disguised in Klan robes to wreak vengeance on other Negroes! <br />
<br />
The Fiery Cross<br />
<br />
"Prominent Southern gentlemen were later cited as state leaders of the Invisible Empire. Alabama claimed General John T. Morgan as Grand Dragon. Arkansas was headed by General Albert Pike, explorer and poet. North Carolina was led by former governor Zebulon Vance, and Georgia by General John B. Gordon, later a U.S. Senator."<br />

<br />
The Aryan's<br />
<br />
Albert Pike also wrote extensively on the mythtical super-race of the Aryans, extolling their virtues, imagined history, and religion which he tried to show was the precursor of Freemasonry in is numerous Published Works. It would seem that Pike was a fellow traveller with Blavatsky on this subject. Fifty years later in Central Europe there will be others who will take up this mantle and use these writings as the basis for a ideology that curiously enough will also use the term 'new world order' to describe it's agenda. Just a co-incidence of course. <br />

Views of General ALBERT PIKE, Sovereign Grand Commander, A. & A. Scottish Rite. ALEXANDRIA, Va., 13th September, 1875.<br />
<br />
My DEAR FRIEND AND BROTHER.-I can see as plainly as that the negro question is going to make trouble. Then plenty of regular negro Masons and negro lodges in South America and the West Indies, and our folks only stave of the question by saying that negro Masons here are clandestine. Prince Hall Lodge was as regular a Lodge as any lodge created by competent authority, and had a perfect right (as other lodges in Europe did) to establish other lodges, making itself a mother Lodge. That's the way the Berlin lodges, Three Globes and Royal York, became Grand Lodges.<br />
<br />
The Grand Orient of Hayti is as regular as any other. So is the Grand Orient of the Dominican Republic, which, I dare say, has negroes in it and negro lodges under it.<br />
<br />
Again, if the negro lodges are not regular, they can easily get regularized. If our Grand Lodges won't recognize negro lodges, they have the right to go elsewhere. The Grand Lodge can't say to eight or more Masons, black or white, we will not give you a charter because you are negroes, or because you wish to work the Scottish Rite, and you shall not go elsewhere to get one. That latter part is bosh.<br />
<br />
Hamburg recognizes the Grand Lodges. Yes, and so the German Grand Lodge Confederation is going to do, and so will the Grand Orient of France before long.<br />
<br />
Of course, if negrophily continues to be the religion established by law of your States, there will be before long somewhere a beginning of recognition of negro lodges. Then the Royal Arch and Templar bodies of negroes must be taken in, and Masonry go down to their level. Will your plan work? I think not. I think there is no middle ground between rigid exclusion of negroes or recognition and affiliation with the whole mass.<br />
<br />
If they are not Masons, how protect them as such or at all ? If they are Masons, how deny them affiliation or have two supreme powers in one jurisdiction.<br />
<br />
I am not inclined to meddle in the matter. I took my obligations to white men, not to negroes. When I have to accept negroes as brothers or leave Masonry, I shall leave it.<br />
<br />
I am interested to keep the Ancient and Accepted Rite uncontaminated, in our country at least, by the leprosy of negro association. Our Supreme Council can defend its jurisdiction, and it is the law-maker. There can not be a lawful body of that Rite in our jurisdiction unless it is created by us.<br />
<br />
I am not so sure but that, what with immensity of numbers, want of a purpose worth laboring for, general indifference to obligations, pitiful charity and large expenses, fuss, feathers and fandango, big temples and large debts, Masonry is become a great helpless, inert mass that will some day, before long, topple over, and go under. If you wish it should, I think you can hasten the catastrophe by urging a protectorate of the negroes. Better let the thing drift. Apres noun le, deluge.<br />

Truly, yours,<br />

The Knights of the Golden Circle<br />
<br />
Brigadier General Albert Pike organized and lead the African Slave Owning Cherokee Indians in the Oklahoma Territory who were part of the Masonic Knights of the Golden Circle, in their own secret society called the Keetowah. Under Pikes Generalship this Brigade raped, pillaged, and murdered civilian communities in the Oklahoma and Missori Territories. For these "good works" Brother Albert became a Convicted War Criminal in a War Crimes Trial held after the Civil Wars end. Unfortunately the "Pope" and "Plato" of Freemasonry had to be tried in absentia because he had fled to British Territory in Canada. Second Generation British-American Pike has also been alledged to have been working for the Crown as an agent and key civil war agitator. Pike only returned to the U.S. after his hand picked Scottish Rite Succsessor James Richardon 33° got a pardon for him after, making President Johnson a 33° Scottish Mason in a ceremony held inside the White House itself! In fact given Mr. Pikes leadership roll in the Knights of the Golden Circle and the fact that the name Ku Klux Klan is a version of Circle (Kluklos) it seems pretty clear to most researchers who was higher up the secret society occult ladder and therefore more instrumental in the founding of the Klan - Mason/Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forest or Mason/Confederate General/ Knights of the Golden Circle Leader/British Agent/ Scottish Rite Supreme Council Head Albert Pike 33°. <br />

Where or what are the academic credentials of Masonic "truth seekers" such as the self styled "Grand" Lodge of BC and others that call anyone who says Pike was a key figure in the KKK a liar and "a hater"?<br />

<br />
Rather than quake in fear when Masonic Propagandists puts the muscle on (as in the case of the 1990's Pike Statue removal fight in Washington D.C.), a citizen or his political representative ought to put this question to General Pike's defenders: "Do you say that Professor Fleming, Miss Davis, Mr. Bowers, and all the other pro-Confederate historians were liars when they wrote of Pike's marvelous deeds as KKK founder and leader?" They want to have it both ways: first to issue propaganda justifying Klan terrorism as the work of "respectable'' men like Pike; later, when their hero is under attack, to claim that their own propaganda slanders their man! <br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />About Giuseppe Mazzini</span><br />
<br />
Giuseppe Mazzini (June 22, 1805 – March 10, 1872), the "Soul of Italy,"[1] was an Italian patriot, philosopher, freemason and politician. His efforts helped bring about the modern Italian state[2] in place of the several separate states, many dominated by foreign powers, that existed until the 19th century. He also helped define the modern European movement for popular democracy in a republican state.[citation needed]<br />
<br />
Mazzini was born in Genoa, then part of the Ligurian Republic, under the rule of the French Empire. His father, Giacomo, was a university professor who had adhered to Jacobin ideology; his mother, Maria Drago, was renowned for her beauty and religious fervour. Since a very early age, Mazzini showed good learning qualities (as well as a precocious interest towards politics and literature), and was admitted to the University at only 14, graduating in law in 1826, initially practicing as a "poor man's lawyer".<br />
<br />
In 1830 Mazzini traveled to Tuscany, where he became a member of the Carbonari, a secret association with political purposes. On October 31st of that year he was arrested at Genoa and interned at Savona. During his imprisonment he devised the outlines of a new patriotic movement aiming to replace the unsuccessful Carbonari. Although freed in the early 1831, he chose exile instead of life confined into the small hamlet which was requested of him by the police, moving to Geneva in Switzerland.<br />
<br />
In 1831 he went to Marseille, where he became a popular figure to the other Italian exiles. He lived in the apartment of Giuditta Bellerio Sidoli, a beautiful Modenese widow who would become his lover, and organized a new political society called La giovine Italia (Young Italy). Young Italy was a secret society formed to promote Italian unity. Mazzini believed that a popular uprising would create a unified Italy, and would touch off a European-wide revolutionary movement.[3] The group's motto was God and the People,[4] and its basic principle was the union of the several states and kingdoms of the peninsula into a single republic as the only true foundation of Italian liberty. The new nation had to be: "One, Independent, Free Republic".<br />
<br />
The Mazzinian propaganda met some success in Tuscany, Abruzzi, Sicily, Piedmont and his native Liguria, especially among several military officers. Young Italy counted ca 60,000 adherents in 1833, with branches in Genoa and other cities. In that year Mazzini launched a first attempt of insurrection, which would spread from Chambéry (then part of the Kingdom of Sardinia), Alessandria, Turin and Genoa. However, the Savoy government discovered the plot before it could begin and many revolutionaries (including Vincenzo Gioberti) were arrested. The repression was ruthless: 12 participants were executed, while Mazzini's best friend and director of the Genoese section of the Giovine Italia, Jacopo Ruffini, killed himself. Mazzini was tried in absence and sentenced to death.<br />
<br />
Despite this setback (whose victims later created numerous doubts and psychological strife in Mazzini), he organized another uprising for the following year. A group of Italian exiles were to enter Piedmont from Switzerland and spread the revolution there, while Giuseppe Garibaldi, who had recently joined the Giovine Italia, was to do the same from Genoa. However, the Piedmontese troops easily crushed the new attempt.<br />
<br />
On May 28, 1834 Mazzini was arrested at Soletta, and exiled from Switzerland. He moved to Paris, where he was again imprisoned on July 5. He was released only after promising he would move to England. Mazzini, together with a few Italian friends, moved in January 1837 to live in London in very poor economic conditions.<br />
<br />
On April 30, 1837 Mazzini reformed the Giovine Italia in London, and on November 10 of the same year he began issuing the Apostolato popolare ("Apostleship of the People").<br />
<br />
A succession of failed attempts at promoting further uprising in Sicily, Abruzzi, Tuscany and Lombardy-Venetia discouraged Mazzini for a long period, which dragged on until 1840. He was also abandoned by Sidoli, who had returned to Italy to rejoin her children. The help of his mother pushed Mazzini to found several organizations aimed at the unification or liberation of other nations, in the wake of Giovine Italia[5]: Young Germany, Young Poland, Young Switzerland, which were under the aegis of Young Europe (Giovine Europa). He also created an Italian school for poor people. From London he also wrote an endless series of letters to his agents in Europe and South America, and made friends with Thomas and Jane Welsh Carlyle. The "Young Europe" movement also inspired a group of young Turkish army cadets and students who, later in history, named themselves the "Young Turks".<br />
<br />
In 1843 he organized another riot in Bologna, which attracted the attention of two young officers of the Austrian Navy, Attilio and Emilio Bandiera. With Mazzini's support, they landed near Cosenza (Kingdom of Naples), but were arrested and executed. Mazzini accused the British government of having passed information about the expeditions to the Neapolitans, and question was raised in the British Parliament. When it was admitted that his private letters had indeed been opened, and its contents revealed by the Foreign Office to the Neapolitan government, Mazzini gained popularity and support among the British liberals, who were outraged by such a blatant intrusion of the government into his private correspondence.<br />
<br />
In 1847 he moved again to London, where he wrote a long "open letter" to Pope Pius IX, whose apparently liberal reforms had gained him a momentary status as possible paladin of the unification of Italy. The Pope, however, did not reply. He also founded the People's International League. By March 8, 1848 Mazzini was in Paris, where he launched a new political association, the Associazione Nazionale Italiana.<br />
<br />
Mazzini spent all of 1850 hiding from the Swiss police. In July he founded the association Amici di Italia in London, to attract consensus towards the Italian liberation cause. Two failed riots in Mantua (1852) and Milan (1853) were a crippling blow for the Mazzinian organization, whose prestige never recovered. He later opposed the alliance signed by Savoy with Austria for the Crimean War. Also vain was the expeditions of Felice Orsini in Carrara of 1853–54.<br />
<br />
In 1856 he returned to Genoa to organize a series of uprisings: the only serious attempt was that of Carlo Pisacane in Calabria, which again met a dismaying end. Mazzini managed to escape the police, but was condemned to death by default. From this moment on, Mazzini was more of a spectator than a protagonist of the Italian Risorgimento, whose reins were now strongly in the hands of the Savoyard monarch Victor Emmanuel II and his skilled prime minister, Camillo Benso, Conte di Cavour. The latter defined him as "Chief of the assassins".<br />
<br />
In 1858 he founded another journal in London, Pensiero e azione ("Thought and Action"). Also there, on February 21, 1859, together with 151 republicans he signed a manifesto against the alliance between Piedmont and the King of France which resulted in the Second War of Italian Independence and the conquest of Lombardy. On May 2, 1860 he tried to reach Garibaldi, who was going to launch his famous Expedition of the Thousand[6] in southern Italy. In the same year he released Doveri dell'uomo ("Duties of Man"), a synthesis of his moral, political and social thoughts. In mid-September he was in Naples, then under Garibaldi's dictatorship, but was invited by the local vice-dictator Giorgio Pallavicino to move away.<br />
<br />
In 1862 he again joined Garibaldi during his failed attempt to free Rome. In 1866 Venetia was ceded by France, who had obtained it from Austria at the end of the Austro-Prussian War, to the new Kingdom of Italy, which had been created in 1861 under the Savoy monarchy. At this time Mazzini was frequently in polemics with the course followed by the unification of his country, and in 1867 he refused a seat in the Italian Chamber of Deputies. In 1870, during an attempt to free Sicily, he was arrested and imprisoned in Gaeta. He was freed in October due to the amnesty conceded after the successful capture of Rome, and returned to London in mid-December.<br />
<br />
Giuseppe Mazzini died in Pisa in 1872. His funeral was held in Genoa, with 100,000 people taking part in it.<br />
<br />
Karl Marx, on an interview by R. Landor in 1871, said that Mazzini's ideas represents "nothing better than the old idea of a middle-class republic." Marx believed, especially after the Revolutions of 1848, that this middle class point of view had become reactionary and the proletariat had nothing to do with it.[7]<br />
<br />
Mazzini was an early advocate of a "United States of Europe" about a century before the European Union began to take shape. For him, European unification was a logical continuation of Italian unification.<br />

In the following we quote Paul A. Fisher (1991) from his book Their God is the Devil, American Research Foundation, Inc., P.O. Box 5687, Baltimore, Maryland 21210.<br />
<br />
* "The moderate and constitutional demands of the Masonic lodges began to be accompanied , by more democratic demands, and there were in Milan, Bologna, Rome, and Naples cells of Illuminati, republican freethinkers, after the pattern recently established in Bavaria by Adam Weishaupt. . . . In the south the first pro-revolutionary centres developed in connection with the Masonic lodges; an example is the Celestini Lodge at Naples." Encyclopedia Britanica, 1977, Vol. 9, History of Italy and Sicily, p. 1155.)<br />
* The rebellion in Italy against Papal governments during 1830s "was known as the 'Risorgimento' which, in reality, was a classic Masonic revolutionary movement. Its leaders were Giuseppe Mazzini, Giuseppe Garibaldi, Camillo Cavour and King Victor Emmanuel II -- all ardent Freemasons." (Fisher [1991], p. 17.) ( King Victor Emmanuel II was later poisoned by his own son, Prince Umberto, who, in turn, was assassinated by the order of Masonic lodges.)<br />
* "Mazzini, according to the Grand Commander of Scottish Rite Freemasonry in America, was the first head of modern Freemasonry in Italy. (ibid, p. 17.)<br />
* "One historian, Charles Heckethorn, in his book, Secret Societies, says the chilling word "Mafia" is an acronym meaning 'Mazzini Autoriza Furti, Incendi, Avelenameti:' that is: 'Mazzini authorizes thefts, arson and poisoning.' (ibid., p.17.) <br />

While attending Genoa University, Giuseppe Mazzini became a 33rd degree Mason, and joined a secret organization known as the Carbonari (their stated goal in 1818: "Our final aim is that of Voltaire and of the French Revolution -- the complete annihilation of Catholicism, and ultimately all Christianity."), where he became committed to the cause of Italian unity. In 1831 he was exiled to France where he founded the 'Young Societies' movement which included Giovane Italia (Young Italy), Young England, etc. This group united those who wanted to achieve unification through force. Mazzini moved to England in 1837 then returned to Italy in 1848 to lead the revolution against the Austrians. Again he was exiled. In the 1850's he led more revolutionary activities, and through his actions Italy became united in 1861 as a single kingdom rather than the republic envisioned by Mazzini. Mazzini, who became known as the 'Evil Genius of Italy,' tried to carry on the activities of the Illuminati through the Alta Vendita Lodge, the highest lodge of the Carbonari. From 1814-48, the group known as the Haute Vente Romaine led the activities of most of Europe's secret societies. In April, 1836 the head of the Haute Vente, whose pseudonym was 'Nubius,' wrote to 'Beppo': "Mazzini behaves too much like a conspirator of melodrama to suit the obscure role we resign ourselves to play until our triumph. Mazzini likes to talk about a great many things, about himself above all. He never ceases writing that he is overthrowing thrones and altars, that he fertilizes the peoples, that he is the prophet of humanitarianism..." In 1860, Giuseppe Mazzini had formed an organization called the 'Oblonica,' a name derived from the Latin 'obelus', which means: "I beckon with a spit (dagger)." Within this group, he established an inner circle called the Mafia. About 1000 A.D., after the Normans had driven the Arabs out of Sicily, they established a feudal system. Overseers to guard each feudi were chosen from known criminals. Skirmishes between the Barons were fought by these criminals. Although feudal privileges were abolished in 1812, these overseers retained control of the land through leasing arrangements. It was this band of criminals that Mazzini gave the name 'Mafia', which was an acronym for Mazzini, Autorizza, Furti, Incendi, and Avvelengmenti. Known as the Mafiosi, they were authorized by Mazzini to commit thefts, arson and murder. It was this organization that came to America during the 1890's with the beginning of Italian immigration.<br />
<br />
Cardinal Caro Y Rodriguez published The Mystery of Freemasonry Unveiled in 1925. Rodriguez names several references for a particular letter written by Albert Pike in 1871 suggesting a plan of universal destruction, one of which is Le Palladisme : Culte de Satan-Lucifer dans les Triangles Maconniques by Domenico Margiotta which I quote on the front page of this website, and which I believe indicates that Pike did indeed write something of that nature. Rodriguez alleges that on 15th August 1871 Albert Pike proposed the following plan in a letter to Giuseppe Mazzini. The quoted text below lays out a plan for three world wars ending with Luciferian World Government. WW1 occured as proposed by Pike. WW2 occured as proposed by Pike. WW3 is looking like it will occur as proposed by Pike.<br />

Actually, no. Facebook is a website, devoted to “social networking.” However, there’s also a lot more going on behind the curtain. As always, it’s the grey areas that interest me the most. So with this article, I want to ask refined and specific questions to get accurate and detailed answers. Because it’s not an exaggeration to say that there are very real ties between Facebook and CIA—and there’s a whole covert landscape of semi-legal databases, companies selling private information, and the new horizon of computer-driven “Data Mining”. <br />
<br />
In short, this is a great angle to sneak a peek one of the most hidden, and profitable, sectors of the US economy. What we’ll see is a lot less simple than a good conspiracy theory, but I also think it’s a hell of a lot more interesting than the “Facebook = CIA” mantra that passes for “investigation” on the internets. <br />
<br />
<blockquote>
We may use information about you that we collect from other sources, including but not limited to newspapers and Internet sources such as blogs, instant messaging services and other users of Facebook, to supplement your profile.”</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
Let’s start right there. The quote above is from Facebook’s Terms and Conditions—specifically, their privacy policy. With a declaration like that, you have to give these folks credit for being pretty damn blunt about the nature of the game. Facebook is a long-term investment in my generation, just like MySpace. The payoff these days is millions and millions in advertising revenue—but what about the payoff one decade from now, when their databases have multi-gigabyte files about you? Your interests, habits, porn preferences, mindless surveys, purchases, friends, bulletins, and little sparkly animated .gif files? How much do you think that information will be worth—to advertisers, to corporations, to the military, to intelligence services? <br />
<br />
Anyone who has concerns about their “privacy” being violated by Facebook is completely, unconditionally justified in their concern. After all, Facebook was born out of data theft—founder Mark Zuckerberg stole tens of thousands of digital files on his fellow Harvard students, directly from the University’s “secure” servers. Maybe that’s alarming to you, but I find it endearingly psychotic. Anyone who can found a multi-billion dollar business with stolen property is worth paying attention to. From the always-excellent Fast Company magazine:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
Harvard didn’t offer a student directory with photos and basic information, known at most schools as a face book. Zuckerberg wanted to build an online version for Harvard, but the school “kept on saying that there were all these reasons why they couldn’t aggregate this information,” he says. “I just wanted to show that it could be done.” So one night early in his sophomore year, he hacked into Harvard’s student records. He then threw up a basic site called Facemash, which randomly paired photos of undergraduates and invited visitors to determine which one was “hotter” (not unlike the Web site Hot or Not). Four hours, 450 visitors, and 22,000 photo views later, Harvard yanked Zuckerberg’s Internet connection. After a dressing-down from the administration and an uproar on campus chronicled by The Harvard Crimson, Zuckerberg politely apologized to his fellow students. But he remained convinced he’d done the right thing: “I thought that the information should be available.” (Harvard declined to comment on the episode.)</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
The next anaecdote in the article is even more telling and fairly funny, too. Since Fast Company was kind enough not to sue me over my excessive quotitude in the Clotaire Rapaille article, I figure I’ll push the envelope a little further:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
The new project consumed so much of his time that by the end of the first semester, with just two days to go before his art-history final, he was in a serious jam: He needed to be able to discuss 500 images from the Augustan period. “This isn’t the kind of thing where you can just go in and figure out how to do it, like calculus or math,” he says, without a trace of irony. “You actually have to learn these things ahead of time.” So he pulled a Tom Sawyer: He built a Web site with one image per page and a place for comments. Then he emailed members of his class and invited them to share their notes, like a study group on cybersteroids. “Within two hours, all the images were populated with notes,” he says. “I did very well in that class. We all did.”</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
Regardless of your moral stance on cheating, you have to admit the dude is CEO material. Anyone willing to cheat on such a brazen and effective level is worth giving a lot of money to, these days. That’s what Venture Capitalism is all about. <br />

<br />
Keyhole, Inc was also an asset of In-Q-Tel until Google bought them in 2004, for an undisclosed sum. Keyhole does work in “geospatial data visualization applications,” but we know them as the engine behind GoogleEarth, the greatest piece of software humankind has ever created. <br />
<br />
In-Q-Tel has considerable overlapping tentacles with SAIC—the Science Applications International Corporation, who are a study unto themselves. If you’re unfamiliar with their $8 billion global operation, you should definitely check out this recent Vanity Fair article. <br />
<br />
For the sake of objectivity, here’s how Prison Planet sums things up:<br />
<br />
So who do we have to thank for this? According to the official story, TheFaceBook was founded by 3 students from the CIA’s favorite breeding ground of Harvard University. Their first $500,000 in funding came from Peter Thiel, founder and former CEO of Paypal.<br />
<br />
Thiel is also a former columnist for the Wall Street Journal and a graduate of Stanford University, the home of NSA computer research and CIA mind control projects like MK ULTRA. He is an avowed neocon and globalist whose book ”The Diversity Myth“ received praises from William Kristol, Christopher Cox, Edward Meese, and Linda Chavez. Thiel sits on the board of the radical right-wing VanguardPAC and he personally donated $21,200 to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s campaign for governor.<br />
<br />
It’s funny how the CIA’s “favorite breeding ground” changes every time the phrase comes up—is it MIT? Yale? Stanford? Virginia Tech? Depends on the article you’re writing, apparently. Small quibbles aside, the basic concept here is fundamentally sound: Facebook, just like MySpace and every single other large-scale interactive website in existence, is designed to collect demographic data about the people who use it. <br />
<br />
Is this a violation of your right to privacy? Yes and no. <br />
<br />
Yes, of course it is, but no, you don’t have a right to privacy and you never did. Nobody does. If you’re reading this article, everything you do is being backed up to multiple databases. (If you have any illusions about “anonymizers” or “encryption”, please do us both a favor and read this Crytogon article ASAP.) <br />

<br />
But there is a dark side to the success story that's been spreading across the blogosphere. A complex but riveting Big Brother-type conspiracy theory which links Facebook to the CIA and the US Department of Defence.<br />
<br />
The story starts once Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg had launched, after the dorm room drama that's led to the current court case.<br />
<br />
Facebook's first round of venture capital funding ($US500,000) came from former Paypal CEO Peter Thiel. Author of anti-multicultural tome 'The Diversity Myth', he is also on the board of radical conservative group VanguardPAC.<br />
<br />
The second round of funding into Facebook ($US12.7 million) came from venture capital firm Accel Partners. Its manager James Breyer was formerly chairman of the National Venture Capital Association, and served on the board with Gilman Louie, CEO of In-Q-Tel, a venture capital firm established by the Central Intelligence Agency in 1999. One of the company's key areas of expertise are in "data mining technologies".<br />
<br />
Breyer also served on the board of R&D firm BBN Technologies, which was one of those companies responsible for the rise of the internet.<br />
<br />
Dr Anita Jones joined the firm, which included Gilman Louie. She had also served on the In-Q-Tel's board, and had been director of Defence Research and Engineering for the US Department of Defence.<br />
<br />
She was also an adviser to the Secretary of Defence and overseeing the Defence Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), which is responsible for high-tech, high-end development.<br />
<br />
Wikipedia's IAO page says: "the IAO has the stated mission to gather as much information as possible about everyone, in a centralised location, for easy perusal by the United States government, including (though not limited to) internet activity, credit card purchase histories, airline ticket purchases, car rentals, medical records, educational transcripts, driver's licenses, utility bills, tax returns, and any other available data.".<br />
<br />
Not surprisingly, the backlash from civil libertarians led to a Congressional investigation into DARPA's activity, the Information Awareness Office lost its funding.<br />
<br />
Now the internet conspiracy theorists are citing Facebook as the IAO's new mask.<br />
<br />
Parts of the IAO's technology round-up included 'human network analysis and behaviour model building engines', which Facebook's massive volume of neatly-targeted data gathering allows for.<br />
<br />
Facebook's own Terms of use state: "by posting Member Content to any part of the Web site, you automatically grant, and you represent and warrant that you have the right to grant, to facebook an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, fully paid, worldwide license to use, copy, perform, display, reformat, translate, excerpt and distribute such information and content and to prepare derivative works of, or incorpoate into other works, such information and content, and to grant and authorise sublicenses of the foregoing. <br />
<br />
And in its equally interesting privacy policy: "Facebook may also collect information about you from other sources, such as newspapers, blogs, instant messaging services, and other users of the Facebook service through the operation of the service (eg. photo tags) in order to provide you with more useful information and a more personalised experience. By using Facebook, you are consenting to have your personal data transferred to and processed in the United States."<br />
<br />
Is the CIA really providing the impetus and the funding behind the monster growth of this year's biggest dot com success story? Maybe only the men with the nice suits and ear pieces can answer that.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.nzherald.co.nz/technology/news/article.cfm?c_id=5&objectid=10456534">http://www.nzherald.co.nz/technology/news/article.cfm?c_id=5&objectid=10456534</a><br />
<br />
The online social-networking service Facebook works for finding old classmates or arranging happy hours, so why not use it to help recruit the next generation of spies? That's what's happening now in cyberspace, as the country's intelligence community turns to such sites to attract a wider range of résumés.<br />
<br />
The CIA now has its own Facebook page, as does the hush-hush National Security Agency, which vacuums up the world's communications for analysis. Both invite Facebook members to register and read information about employment opportunities. It's part of a larger, multiyear hiring push to boost the size of the U.S. intelligence community.<br />
<br />
Moreover, the face of the CIA and the broader intelligence community is changing. Minorities accounted for almost a third of new CIA hires last year, a record.<br />

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- When you see people at the office using such Internet sites as Facebook and MySpace, you might suspect those workers are slacking off.<br />
<br />
But that's not the case at the CIA, the FBI and the National Security Agency, where bosses are encouraging their staff members to use a new social-networking site designed for the super-secret world of spying.<br />
<br />
"It's every bit Facebook and YouTube for spies, but it's much, much more," said Michael Wertheimer, assistant deputy director of national intelligence for analysis.<br />
<br />
The program is called A-Space, and it's a social-networking site for analysts within the 16 U.S. intelligence agencies.<br />
<br />
Instead of posting thoughts about the new Avenged Sevenfold album or Jessica Alba movie, CIA analysts could use A-Space to share information and opinion about al Qaeda movements in the Middle East or Russian naval maneuvers in the Black Sea.<br />
<br />
The new A-Space site has been undergoing testing for months and launches officially for the nation's entire intelligence community September 22.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.cnn.com/2008/TECH/ptech/09/05/facebook.spies/index.html">http://www.cnn.com/2008/TECH/ptech/09/05/facebook.spies/index.html</a><br />
<br />
Since December 2006, the Central Intelligence Agency has been using Facebook.com, the popular social networking site, to recruit potential employees into its National Clandestine Service. It marks the first time the CIA has ventured into social networking to hire new personnel.<br />
<br />
The CIA's Facebook page (login required) provides an overview of what the NCS is looking for in a recruit, along with a 30-second promotional YouTube video aimed at potential college-aged applicants. U.S. citizens with a GPA above 3.0 can apply.<br />
<br />
"It's an invaluable tool when it comes to peer-to-peer marketing," says Michele Neff, a CIA spokeswoman.<br />
<br />
The NCS, one of the four directorates of the CIA, was established following 9/11 to gather intelligence from sources both domestic and abroad. In 2004, President Bush directed the CIA to increase the "human intelligence capabilities" of the agency and hire more officers that can "blend more easily in foreign cities."<br />
<br />
There are strict federal regulations that guide recruitment and hiring, which are tightly controlled by the Office of Personnel Management. The bureau audits the recruitment practices of five to six government agencies a year on a rotating basis, according to Kevin Mahoney, OPM's associate director for human capital leadership.<br />
<br />
Yet the CIA is an "exempted agency," meaning it has its own hiring authority and isn't audited by OPM. As a result, the CIA is less encumbered by bureaucratic recruitment procedures. Basically, it runs its own show.<br />
<br />
"We don't have to obtain permissions on any of the venues we have scheduled for print or web," says the CIA's Neff.<br />

Google is supplying the software, hardware and tech support to US intelligence agencies who are in the process of creating a vast closed source database for global spy networks to share information.<br />
<br />
Google is selling storage and data searching equipment to the CIA, the FBI, the National Security Agency, and other intelligence agencies, who have come together to build a huge internal government intranet.<br />
<br />
Google is also providing the search features for a private Wikipedia-style site, called Intellipedia.<br />
<br />
"We are a very small group, and even a lot of people in the federal government don't know that we exist," said Mike Bradshaw, who leads Google's federal government sales team and its 18 employees, yesterday to the San Francisco Chronicle.<br />
<br />
The government supply arm of Google has also reportedly entered into a number of other contracts, details of which it says it cannot share. <br />
<br />
Google's partnership with the intelligence network is not new. As we reported in late 2006, An ex-CIA agent Robert David Steele has claimed sources told him that CIA seed money helped get the company off the ground<br />
<br />
Speaking to the Alex Jones Show, Steele elaborated on previous revelations by making it known that the CIA helped bankroll Google at its very inception. Steele named Google's CIA point man as Dr. Rick Steinheiser, of the Office of Research and Development.<br />
<br />
"I think Google took money from the CIA when it was poor and it was starting up and unfortunately our system right now floods money into spying and other illegal and largely unethical activities, and it doesn't fund what I call the open source world," said Steele, citing "trusted individuals" as his sources for the claim.<br />
<br />
"They've been together for quite a while," added Steele.<br />
<br />
Late last year, new programs of internet monitoring were announced by a freshly created department branch of Homeland Security called the National Applications Office<br />
<br />
"Mr. Chertoff also plans soon to unveil a cyber-security strategy, part of an estimated $15 billion, multiyear program designed to protect the nation's Internet infrastructure. The program has been shrouded in secrecy for months and has also prompted privacy concerns on Capitol Hill because it involves government protection of domestic computer networks." The Wall Street Journal wrote.<br />

The proposed 2010 Justice Department budget published last week reveals the development of a new FBI advanced electronic surveillance program dubbed “Going Dark.” The program is being budgeted $233.9 million next year.<br />
<br />
According to the published budget summary (.pdf), the program “supports the FBI’s electronic surveillance (ELSUR), intelligence collection and evidence gathering capabilities, as well as those of the greater Intelligence Community.”<br />
<br />
An FBI spokesman told ABC News, which first reported the information, that the program’s name, Going Dark, “does not refer to a specific capability, but is a program name for the part of the FBI, Operational Technology Division’s (OTD) lawful interception program which is shared with other law enforcement agencies.” He added that “The term applies to the research and development of new tools, technical support and training initiatives.”<br />
<br />
The program is designed to help the agency address challenges with conducting surveillance over newish technologies, such as VoIP. The program is also doing research on automated link analysis to find connections between subjects of surveillance “and other investigative suspects.”<br />
<br />
The budget report also discusses a Biometric Technology Center that is being developed jointly by the FBI, Defense Department and Justice Department in conjunction with the University of West Virginia for research and development of biometric technologies. The center is located at the Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Division complex in Clarksburg, West Virginia.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2009/05/fbi-going-dark-with-new-advanced-surveillance-program/">http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2009/05/fbi-going-dark-with-new-advanced-surveillance-program/</a><br />
<br />
While the FBI has been criticized at times for its slow reforms after the 9/11 attacks, which revealed the FBI did not have adequate computer resources, some of the new programs sound like something out of a high-tech cloak and dagger film.<br />
<br />
The budget request shows that the FBI is currently developing a new "Advanced Electronic Surveillance" program which is being funded at $233.9 million for 2010. The program has 133 employees, 15 of whom are agents.<br />
<br />
According to the budget documents released Thursday, the program, otherwise known as "Going Dark," supports the FBI's electronic surveillance intelligence collection and evidence gathering capabilities, as well as those of the greater Intelligence Community. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://abcnews.go.com/TheLaw/Story?id=7532199&page=1">http://abcnews.go.com/TheLaw/Story?id=7532199&page=1</a><br />
<br />
Known as "Going Dark," the program is designed to beef up the Bureau's already formidable electronic surveillance, intelligence collection and evidence gathering capabilities "as well as those of the greater Intelligence Community," ABC reports. An FBI spokesperson told the network:<br />
<br />
"The term 'Going Dark' does not refer to a specific capability, but is a program name for the part of the FBI, Operational Technology Division's (OTD) lawful interception program which is shared with other law enforcement agencies."<br />
<br />
"The term applies to the research and development of new tools, technical support and training initiatives." (Jason Ryan, "DOJ Budget Details High-Tech Crime Fighting Tools," ABC News, May 9, 2009)<br />
<br />
Led by Assistant Director Marcus C. Thomas, OTD describes the office as supporting "the FBI’s investigative and intelligence-gathering efforts--and those of our federal, state, and local law enforcement/intelligence partners--with a wide range of sophisticated technological equipment, examination tools and capabilities, training, and specialized experience. You won’t hear about our work on the evening news because of its highly sensitive nature, but you will continue to hear about the fruits of our labor..."<br />
<br />
According to OTD's website, the Division possesses "seven core capabilities": Digital Forensics; Electronic Surveillance; Physical Surveillance; Special Technology and Applications; Tactical Communications; Tactical Operations and finally, Technical Support/Coordination.<br />
<br />
Under the heading "Electronic Surveillance," OTD deploys "tools and techniques for performing lawfully-authorized intercepts of wired and wireless telecommunications and data network communications technologies; enhancing unintelligible audio; and working with the communications industry as well as regulatory and legislative bodies to ensure that our continuing ability to conduct electronic surveillance will not be impaired as technology evolves."<br />
<br />
But as we have seen throughout the entire course of the so-called "war on terror," systemic constitutional breeches by the FBI--from their abuse of National Security Letters, the proliferation of corporate-dominated Fusion Centers to the infiltration of provocateurs into antiwar and other dissident groups--the only thing "impaired" by an out-of-control domestic spy agency have been the civil liberties of Americans.<br />

An ex-CIA agent has gone further than ever before in detailing Google's relationship with the Central Intelligence Agency, claiming sources told him that CIA seed money helped get the company off the ground and naming for the first time Google's CIA point man.<br />
<br />
Robert David Steele, a 20-year Marine Corps infantry and intelligence officer and a former clandestine services case officer with the Central Intelligence Agency, is the CEO of OSS.net.<br />
<br />
Speaking to the Alex Jones Show, Steele elaborated on his previous revelations by making it known that the CIA helped bankroll Google at its very inception.<br />
<br />
"I think Google took money from the CIA when it was poor and it was starting up and unfortunately our system right now floods money into spying and other illegal and largely unethical activities, and it doesn't fund what I call the open source world," said Steele, citing "trusted individuals" as his sources for the claim.<br />
<br />
"They've been together for quite a while," added Steele.<br />
<br />
Asked to impart to what level Google is "in bed" with the CIA, Steele described the bond as a "small but significant relationship," adding, "it is by no means dominating Google in fact Google has been embarrassed because everything the CIA asked it to do they couldn't do."<br />
<br />
"I also think it's very very wrong of Google to have this relationship," cautioned Steele.<br />
<br />
The former agent went further than before in identifying by name Google's liaison at the CIA.<br />
<br />
"Let me say very explicitly - their contact at the CIA is named Dr. Rick Steinheiser, he's in the Office of Research and Development," said Steele.<br />

<br />
In the most innovative service, for which Google equipment provides the core search technology, agents are encouraged to post intelligence information on a secure forum, which other spies are free to read, edit, and tag - like the online encyclopedia Wikipedia.<br />
<br />
Depending on their clearance, agents can log on to Intellipedia and gain access to three levels of info - top secret, secret and sensitive, and sensitive but unclassified. So far 37,000 users have established accounts on the service, and the database now extends to 35,000 articles, according to Sean Dennehy, chief of Intellipedia development for the CIA. <br />

<br />
Google has acquired Keyhole, Inc., which has a database of 3-D spy-in-the-sky images from all over the globe. Their software provides a virtual fly-over and zoom-in with one-foot resolution. Keyhole is supported by In-Q-Tel, a venture capital firm funded by the CIA, in an effort to "identify and invest in companies developing cutting-edge information technologies that serve United States national security interests."<br />
<br />
In 2003, Keyhole's CEO John Hanke was quoted in an In-Q-Tel press release: "Keyhole's strategic relationship with In-Q-Tel means that the Intelligence Community can now benefit from the massive scalability and high performance of the Keyhole enterprise solution."<br />
<br />
The spooks in Washington now had another hook into Google, Inc. Then in mid-2005, Rob Painter joined Google as Senior Federal Manager. He came straight from In-Q-Tel, where he had been Director of Technology Assessment.<br />

The CIA, FBI and National Security Agency have all reportedly banded together to create an internal government intranet – sharing data on a system called Intellipedia.<br />
<br />
"Each analyst, for lack of a better term, has a shoe box with their knowledge," Sean Dennehy, chief of Intellipedia development for the CIA, told the San Francisco Chronicle Sunday. "They maintained it in a shared drive or a Word document, but we're encouraging them to move those platforms so that everyone can benefit."<br />
<br />
There are three levels of information available to users: Top secret, secret and sensitive but unclassified. According to numbers provided by the CIA, 37,000 accounts have been established providing access to 200,000 pages of information.<br />
<br />
Google supplies the software, hardware and tech support. The software and browsing giant is also licensing its mapping data to government agencies.<br />
<br />
"We are a very small group, and even a lot of people in the federal government don't know that we exist," said Mike Bradshaw, who leads Google's federal government sales team and its 18 employees, yesterday to the Chronicle. <br />

<blockquote>
The contractor, who spoke on a not-for-attribution basis, said that at least one US intelligence agency he declined to identify is working to “leverage Google’s [user] data monitoring” capability as part of an effort by the IC to glean from this data information of “national security intelligence interest” in the war on terror. . . .<br />
<br />
One of the sources did say, however, that the CIA’s Office of Research and Development “has been giving them additional money and guidance and requirements.”<br />
<br />
Last November, the CIA - through In-Q-Tel [CIA venture capital company] - issued notices to sell $2.2 million worth of Google stock.<br />
<br />
Robert David Steele, intelligence veteran and CEO of OSS.Net, Inc. which sponsored last week’s event, told HSToday.us Tuesday evening that “Google is being actively hypocritical and deceptive in playing up its refusal to help the Department of Justice when all along it has been taking money and direction for elements of the US Intelligence Community, including the Office of Research and Development at the Central Intelligence Agency, In-Q-Tel, and in all probability, both the National Security Agency (NSA) and the Army’s Intelligence and Security Command.”<br />
<br />
Steele added, “I have no doubt that Google, in its arrogance, decided it could make a deal with the devil and not get caught.” — HSToday.us</blockquote>

If you are extremely concerned about the possibility that your private browsing information is going to wind up in the hands of U.S. intelligence agencies, you can throw a spanner in the works by blocking cookies from the following domains: google.com, googlesyndication.com, google-analytics.com, and your country-specific Google domain (e.g. google.co.uk). If you actually use Google services, such as Google Mail, then this obviously will prevent you from using those services.<br />
<br />
Even with cookies blocked, a limited amount of user tracking is possible, so unless you really are a terrorist, it probably isn’t worth the trouble. I still have all of my Google Cookies. Then again, I already know they’re watching me…<br />

Think Liev Schreiber in The Manchurian Candidate or Mel Gibson in Conspiracy Theory. Journalists are a favorite target for the paranoid delusions of this population. So is Gordon Erspamer—and the San Francisco lawyer's latest case isn't helping him to fend off the tinfoil-hat crowd. He has filed suit against the CIA and the US Army on behalf of the Vietnam Veterans of America and six former American soldiers who claim they are the real thing: survivors of classified government tests conducted at the Army's Edgewood Arsenal in Maryland between 1950 and 1975. "I get a lot of calls," he says. "There are a lot of crazy people out there who think that somebody from Mars is controlling their behavior via radio waves." But when it comes to Edgewood, "I'm finding that more and more of those stories are true!"<br />
<br />
As a CIA official explained to the GAO, referring to the agency's infamous MKULTRA mind-control experiments, "The names of those involved in the tests are not available because names were not recorded or the records were subsequently destroyed." Besides, said the official, some of the tests involving LSD and other psychochemical drugs "were administered to an undetermined number of people without their knowledge."<br />
<br />
The CIA's decision to use military personnel as test subjects followed the court's decision and is an issue Erspamer plans to raise at trial. "Suddenly, they stopped using civilian subjects and said, 'Oh, we can get these military guys for free,'" he says. "The government could do whatever it wanted to them without liability. We want to bring that to the attention of the public, because I don't think most people understand that." (Asked about Erspamer's suit, CIA spokeswoman Marie Harf would say only that the agency's human testing program has "been thoroughly investigated, and the CIA fully cooperated with each of the investigations.")<br />
<br />
Erspamer's involvement in the case is deeply personal. His father was a government scientist during Operation Crossroads, a series of nuclear tests conducted at Bikini Atoll in the Pacific in the summer of 1946; he was present aboard a research vessel for the "Baker" test, during which a 21-kiloton thermonuclear bomb was detonated 90 feet below water. The blast resulted in massive radioactive contamination. Erspamer's father and the rest of the ship's crew, he says, all died in middle age from radiogenic diseases. Erspamer makes his living in the field of energy litigation, but has twice before argued class action suits for veterans—one for soldiers who, like his father, were exposed to radiation during nuclear tests (a case he ultimately lost in a 1992 appellate decision) and more recently one on behalf of Iraq and Afghanistan veterans denied treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder. The case is on appeal in California's 9th Circuit. "Nobody out there is doing these types of cases," he says. "It's really sad because the veterans are left holding the bag, and it's not a very pretty bag."<br />
<br />
Medical records indicate that Rochelle went through a third round of testing, but he has no memory of it. For years he's been having nightmares about the Edgewood tests and now suffers from anxiety, memory loss, sleep apnea, tinnitus, and loss of vision, all of which he claims are direct results of the experiments. Still, he didn't inform his doctor of the tests until 2006, believing that he was still bound by the oath of secrecy he swore in 1968. (The government finally released human test subjects to speak to their physicians about the tests in June 2006, under the condition that they not "discuss anything that relates to operational information that might reveal chemical or biological warfare vulnerabilities or capabilities.")<br />
<br />
Rochelle's story is similar to those of Erspamer's other plaintiffs, all of whom claim to be suffering debilitating health effects stemming from the experiments. Of course, substantiating these claims is a challenge, given that most of the medical records were destroyed upon completion of the program. Rochelle's records remain intact, but for "others we have less information," says Erspamer. "We spent a great deal of time on that topic, and we are confident that the plaintiffs are who they say they are, were where they said they were, and got what they said they got," in terms of exposure to experimental chemicals. "Who bears the burden on that issue when the defendants destroyed the evidence?" Erspamer asks. "They've put all that stuff through the shredder."<br />
<br />
Compensation for injuries sustained during human testing of chemical and biological agents is not unprecedented. Last year, more than 350 servicemen who served as test subjects at Porton Down, a secret military research facility where the British government conducted its own series of mind-control experiments, were granted nearly $6 million in compensation in an out-of-court settlement with the UK's Ministry of Defence. Likewise, in 2004, the Canadian government began offering $18,000 payments to eligible veterans of experiments at its testing facilities. Nevertheless, says Erspamer, "No American soldiers have ever been compensated." The CIA and the Army "just hope they're all gonna die off, and they will unless somebody does something."<br />

<br />
The Sunburn Missile<br />
<br />
I was shocked when I learned the facts about these Russian-made cruise missiles. The problem is that so many of us suffer from two common misperceptions. The first follows from our assumption that Russia is militarily weak, as a result of the breakup of the old Soviet system. Actually, this is accurate, but it does not reflect the complexities. Although the Russian navy continues to rust in port, and the Russian army is in disarray, in certain key areas Russian technology is actually superior to our own. And nowhere is this truer than in the vital area of anti-ship cruise missile technology, where the Russians hold at least a ten-year lead over the US. The second misperception has to do with our complacency in general about missiles-as-weapons probably attributable to the pathetic performance of Saddam Hussein's Scuds during the first Gulf war: a dangerous illusion that I will now attempt to rectify.<br />
<br />
Many years ago, Soviet planners gave up trying to match the US Navy ship for ship, gun for gun, and dollar for dollar. The Soviets simply could not compete with the high levels of US spending required to build up and maintain a huge naval armada. They shrewdly adopted an alternative approach based on strategic defense. They searched for weaknesses, and sought relatively inexpensive ways to exploit those weaknesses. The Soviets succeeded: by developing several supersonic anti-ship missiles, one of which, the SS-N-22 Sunburn, has been called "the most lethal missile in the world today."<br />
<br />
After the collapse of the Soviet Union the old military establishment fell upon hard times. But in the late1990s Moscow awakened to the under-utilized potential of its missile technology to generate desperately needed foreign exchange. A decision was made to resuscitate selected programs, and, very soon, Russian missile technology became a hot export commodity. Today, Russian missiles are a growth industry generating much-needed cash for Russia, with many billions in combined sales to India, China, Viet Nam, Cuba, and also Iran. In the near future this dissemination of advanced technology is likely to present serious challenges to the US. Some have even warned that the US Navy's largest ships, the massive carriers, have now become floating death traps, and should for this reason be mothballed.<br />
<br />
The Sunburn missile has never seen use in combat, to my knowledge, which probably explains why its fearsome capabilities are not more widely recognized. Other cruise missiles have been used, of course, on several occasions, and with devastating results. During the Falklands War, French-made Exocet missiles, fired from Argentine fighters, sunk the HMS Sheffield and another ship. And, in 1987, during the Iran-Iraq war, the USS Stark was nearly cut in half by a pair of Exocets while on patrol in the Persian Gulf. On that occasion US Aegis radar picked up the incoming Iraqi fighter (a French-made Mirage), and tracked its approach to within 50 miles. The radar also "saw" the Iraqi plane turn about and return to its base. But radar never detected the pilot launch his weapons. The sea-skimming Exocets came smoking in under radar and were only sighted by human eyes moments before they ripped into the Stark, crippling the ship and killing 37 US sailors.<br />
<br />
The 1987 surprise attack on the Stark exemplifies the dangers posed by anti-ship cruise missiles. And the dangers are much more serious in the case of the Sunburn, whose specs leave the sub-sonic Exocet in the dust. Not only is the Sunburn much larger and faster, it has far greater range and a superior guidance system. Those who have witnessed its performance trials invariably come away stunned. According to one report, when the Iranian Defense Minister Ali Shamkhani visited Moscow in October 2001 he requested a test firing of the Sunburn, which the Russians were only too happy to arrange. So impressed was Ali Shamkhani that he placed an order for an undisclosed number of the missiles.<br />
<br />
The Sunburn can deliver a 200-kiloton nuclear payload, or: a 750-pound conventional warhead, within a range of 100 miles, more than twice the range of the Exocet. The Sunburn combines a Mach 2.1 speed (two times the speed of sound) with a flight pattern that hugs the deck and includes "violent end maneuvers" to elude enemy defenses. The missile was specifically designed to defeat the US Aegis radar defense system. Should a US Navy Phalanx point defense somehow manage to detect an incoming Sunburn missile, the system has only seconds to calculate a fire solution not enough time to take out the intruding missile. The US Phalanx defense employs a six-barreled gun that fires 3,000 depleted-uranium rounds a minute, but the gun must have precise coordinates to destroy an intruder "just in time."<br />
<br />
The Sunburn's combined supersonic speed and payload size produce tremendous kinetic energy on impact, with devastating consequences for ship and crew. A single one of these missiles can sink a large warship, yet costs considerably less than a fighter jet. Although the Navy has been phasing out the older Phalanx defense system, its replacement, known as the Rolling Action Missile (RAM) has never been tested against the weapon it seems destined to one day face in combat. Implications For US Forces in the Gulf<br />
<br />
The US Navy's only plausible defense against a robust weapon like the Sunburn missile is to detect the enemy's approach well ahead of time, whether destroyers, subs, or fighter-bombers, and defeat them before they can get in range and launch their deadly cargo. For this purpose US AWACs radar planes assigned to each naval battle group are kept aloft on a rotating schedule. The planes "see" everything within two hundred miles of the fleet, and are complemented with intelligence from orbiting satellites.<br />
<br />
But US naval commanders operating in the Persian Gulf face serious challenges that are unique to the littoral, i.e., coastal, environment. A glance at a map shows why: The Gulf is nothing but a large lake, with one narrow outlet, and most of its northern shore, i.e., Iran, consists of mountainous terrain that affords a commanding tactical advantage over ships operating in Gulf waters. The rugged northern shore makes for easy concealment of coastal defenses, such as mobile missile launchers, and also makes their detection problematic. Although it was not widely reported, the US actually lost the battle of the Scuds in the first Gulf War termed "the great Scud hunt" and for similar reasons.<br />
<br />
Saddam Hussein's mobile Scud launchers proved so difficult to detect and destroy over and over again the Iraqis fooled allied reconnaissance with decoys that during the course of Desert Storm the US was unable to confirm even a single kill. This proved such an embarrassment to the Pentagon, afterwards, that the unpleasant stats were buried in official reports. But the blunt fact is that the US failed to stop the Scud attacks. The launches continued until the last few days of the conflict. Luckily, the Scud's inaccuracy made it an almost useless weapon. At one point General Norman Schwarzkopf quipped dismissively to the press that his soldiers had a greater chance of being struck by lightning in Georgia than by a Scud in Kuwait.<br />
<br />
But that was then, and it would be a grave error to allow the Scud's ineffectiveness to blur the facts concerning this other missile. The Sunburn's amazing accuracy was demonstrated not long ago in a live test staged at sea by the Chinese and observed by US spy planes. Not only did the Sunburn missile destroy the dummy target ship, it scored a perfect bull's eye, hitting the crosshairs of a large "X" mounted on the ship's bridge. The only word that does it justice, awesome, has become a cliché, hackneyed from hyperbolic excess. <br />

<br />
The other, unrelated SS-N-22 was the Raduga P-270 Moskit. It was ramjet-propelled (though launched by a small solid-fuel rocket), armed with a 300-kilogram warhead, and was carried by later-model Sovremenny class destroyers, Tarantul class corvettes, and several smaller warships. This weapon has a top speed of Mach 3 [1], [2], and is considered one of the most lethal anti-ship missiles in the world[1], because when it's launched the target ship has 25 to 30 seconds of response time. It can deliver a warhead of 320 kg. [3]<br />
<br />
There is another version of these weapons called ASM-MMS [4] intended to be launched using a Su-33.<br />

<br />
Armed with their Russian-supplied cruise missiles, the Iranians will close the lake’s only outlet, the strategic Strait of Hormuz, cutting off the trapped and dying Americans from help and rescue. The US fleet massing in the Indian Ocean will stand by helplessly, unable to enter the Gulf to assist the survivors or bring logistical support to the other US forces on duty in Iraq. Couple this with a major new ground offensive by the Iraqi insurgents, and, quite suddenly, the tables could turn against the Americans in Baghdad. As supplies and ammunition begin to run out, the status of US forces in the region will become precarious. The occupiers will become the besieged…<br />
<br />
With enough anti-ship missiles, the Iranians can halt tanker traffic through Hormuz for weeks, even months. With the flow of oil from the Gulf curtailed, the price of a barrel of crude will skyrocket on the world market. <br />

The NATO designation SS-N-22 ‘Sunburn’ is believed to be designated P270 Moskit, the air-breathing variant of the naval missile 3M80 (the designation 3M80 apparently referring to the Mach 3 speed of 1980 weapons). It may have been designed originally to enhance the effectiveness of Missile Cutter Brigades (that is, units of missile-equipped FACs) and Destroyer Brigades hitherto dependent upon the Malachit or SS-N-9 ‘Siren’. It is used on "Sovremennyy" destroyers (eight missiles on each) and on "Tarantul [Tarantula] III patrol ships (four missiles on each). A high supersonic speed was specified to reduce the target’s time to deploy self-defense weapons, indeed the weapon was designed specifically to strike ships with the Aegis command and weapon control system and the SM-2 surface-to-air missile.<br />
<br />
The Moskit (3M80) is a ramjet-powered missile with a slim forward body and ovoid nose, and a fatter rear half with four divided air intakes. There are four clipped delta platform wings and four smaller tail surfaces of similar shape organized in cruciform configuration around the fuselage. All the wings and tail surfaces are folded when the missile is in the launcher. Internally the radar seeker is in the nose with the guidance system, batteries and radio altimeter in the remainder of the front compartment, and the 300 kg semi-armor-piercing warhead immediately behind. A fuel tank, presumably with a kerosene-type fuel, occupies the area to the leading edges of the wing and the area almost to the rear edges is occupied by the ramjet. Much of the rear of the missile is occupied by a solid propellant booster through which runs the ramjet nozzle. Actuators are to be found below the tail surfaces.<br />
<br />
Fuselage - body of revolution with the ogival form of nose section and the X-shaped wing arrangement and tail assembly. Wing and tail assembly folding, made from the material OTYA and OTYA-Y, longerons - from VKL -3. Four off-axis inlets and air ducts are located on the housing. Front fairing with the radio-transparent spinner (three-layered fairing from the fiberglass fabric scan -3 on the connecting material K -9-70). Skin and intermediate collection it is made from VT -5, tank compartment - made of the stainless steel, longerons - from VKL -3, fairing - from the fiberglass fabric T -10 on connecting K -9-70. Air ducts of welded construction - from the material OTYA-Y, OTYA.<br />
<br />
The 3M82 "Mosquito" missiles have the fastest flying speed among all antiship missiles in today's world. It reaches Mach 3 at a high altitude and its maximum low-altitude speed is M2.2, triple the speed of the American Harpoon. The missile takes only 2 minutes to cover its full range and manufacturers state that 1-2 missiles could incapacitate a destroyer while 1-5 missiles could sink a 20000 ton merchantman. An extended range missile, 9M80E is now available.<br />
<br />
When slower missiles, like the French Exocet are used, the maximum theoretical response time for the defending ship is 150-120 seconds. This provides time to launch countermeasures and employ jamming before deploying "hard" defense tactics such as launching missiles and using quick-firing artillery. But the 3M82 "Mosquito" missiles are extremely fast and give the defending side a maximum theoretical response time of merely 25-30 seconds, rendering it extremely difficult employ jamming and countermeasures, let alone fire missiles and quick-firing artillery. <br />

Dated 26/8/2006<br />
Iran is said to have successfully tested an upgraded, indegenious, guided surface-to-sea missile, media reports confirmed on Saturday. The missile was tested at the Persian Gulf and Sea of Oman during the 'Blow of Zolfaqar' military exercises which began last Saturday. Wargames spokesman Habib Sayari told reporters that the missile accurately hit its pre-determined targets. Sayari said that the missile has a suitable range, high shooting power and precision.<br />
<br />
He added that the successful testing of the missile showed the strength, innovativeness, scientific and technical expertise of the country's defense forces and equipment as well as the potential and specialized skill of its experts. Analysts however suspect this missile is based on the Russian SS-N-22 Sunburn missile that Iran is said to have acquired via China in 2004. The Sunburn missile is a Russian missile of the Soviet era and can carry a warhead of upto 300kg and is said to have a range of 100km-120kms.<br />

Russian "Sunburn" anti-ship missle threat neutralized...<br />
Posted on Monday, August 18, 2003 10:20:55 PM by 1stFreedom<br />
<br />
This is the headline that should have been....Instead, the headlines stated that Raytheon rolled out the SeaRAM anti-ship missle defense system.<br />
<br />
What is significant about this anti-missile defense system is that it can defeat the Mach 2.5 Russian "Sunburn" anti-ship missle. Until the rollout of the SeaRAM, the Russians have enjoyed a very dangerous advantage in anti-ship missile technology. In order to destablize the power of the United States, the Russians have been selling the Sunburn missles to China. The Russians have refused to sell them to the West, and despite the best efforts of it's spies, the west has very little information on them. (Thanks Klinton for passing up the deal when they were offered!) <br />

<br />
Yakhont is an operational and tactical missile. It is designed for hitting complex targets. The new Russian missile can be used against both a single medium ship of the destroyer type and against an aircraft-carrier force.<br />
<br />
The Yakhont designers wanted not just to develop high combat qualities but also to make its use and maintenance as cheap as possible. Its original airframe allowed them to increase its aerodynamic properties and diminish its diameter.<br />

<br />
he original requirement for this missile is somewhat obscure and development has been protracted and indeterminate.It appears that protracted development of another missile, SS-N-22 Moskit (Sunburn), led the Chelomei OKB organisation to propose an alternative supersonic missile. The influence of the company was such that it was allowed to begin design work in 1983 with official approval for development finally being given in 1985, but only under low priority, as the SS-N-22 was the favoured design. The aim, it has been said, was to provide a lighter weight, more compact follow-on system to the SS-N-9, SS-N-19 and SS-N-22 surface-to-surface missile systems, although this is disputed by Russian sources. Subsequent development has been further complicated by the collapse of the Soviet Union and limited financial support. As a result, the project has been developed largely as a private venture, by the NPO Mashinostroenia (formerly the Chelomei OKB) for the export market, as the Russian Navy has no requirement for this system.The family of systems (air, surface ship, submarine launched and coastal defence) was given the designation 3M55 Oniks (Onyx) which has the NATO designation SS-NX-26. The Russians have subsequently changed their designation to Yakhont - Gem.By March 1997, around 25 ballistic firing trials had been conducted with the 'Nanuchka IV' corvette trials ship Nakat being used for guided firing trials. By 1997 it was claimed that 10 such trials had been conducted.<br />

<br />
Vice Chairman of Russia's State Duma Vladimir Zhirinovsky has urged the fast delivery of the magnificent S-400 anti-aircraft missile systems to Iran.<br />
<br />
Speaking at the open session of Russia's State Duma on Wednesday, Zhirinovsky stated, "S-400 anti-aircraft missile systems should be delivered as soon as possible to enable Iran to defend its airspace."<br />
<br />
The S-400 is a new generation of anti-aircraft/anti-missile weapon system developed by the Russian Almaz Central Design Bureau.<br />
<br />
The S-400 is capable of detecting and destroying targets out to a range of 400km (250 miles), such as aircrafts, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles, including those with a range of 3,500 km.<br />
<br />
Sources confirm that the S-400 is capable of detecting and destroying aircraft made with low observable materials such as the American 'stealth' aircraft.<br />
<br />
Russia provided Belarus with the same system a short time ago.<br />
<br />
The S-400 is so sophisticated and powerful that it can change the military balance of a region since it is capable of hitting targets previously considered untouchable.<br />
<br />
The anti missile system has the incredible speed of 4.8 km per second which is faster than a bullet leaving a Kalashnikov machine gun. <br />
<a href="http://www.presstv.ir/detail.aspx?id=21983&sectionid=351020602">http://www.presstv.ir/detail.aspx?id=21983§ionid=351020602</a><br />
<br />
Called the SSN-X-26 Yakhont, the supersonic cruise missile can be launched from the coast and hit sea-borne targets up to 300 kilometers away. The missile carries a 200-kilogram warhead and flies a meter-and-a-half above sea level, making it extremely difficult to intercept. Its closest Western counterpart is the US-made Tomahawk and Harpoon.<br />
<br />
The missile homes in on its target using an advanced radar guidance system that is said to make it resistant to electronic jamming.<br />
<br />
The Yakhont is an operational and tactical missile and can be used against both a medium-sized destroyer and an aircraft carrier. It would pose a serious threat to the Israel Navy, according to defense officials.<br />
<br />
"This is certainly a threat to the Navy," one defense official said. "There is a real fear that if this missile is in Iran it will also be in Syria and Lebanon." <br />
