It is what we make of it. The masses will be more likely to listen to a celebrity then they are willing to listen to a physics professor. It is time to spread the word, this is what we've been fighting for.
When the naysayers start yelling that Charlie Sheen isn't qualified to make the statements he's been making, we counter with the fact that the experts HAVE been speaking, just nobody has been listening.

Hi All,
I admire the work of William Blum, however he is skeptical about
the various theories re. the events of September 11.
Here are Blum's questions:
1. The complications [of staging 9/11] would have made it
next to impossible to stage with such "success", and without
making it obvious to virtually everyone.
I also think that some of the questions raised by 9-11 researchers
are not very impressive. (For example:)
2. Why would the government want to destroy building 7?
3. And the fact that Bush quietly spent time in a class with young students
after hearing about the first plane -- If it was being staged he would
have reacted in a different way.
4. Or that several of the hijackers turned up "alive" in the Middle East.
Why couldn't their identity have been stolen?
5. And more things like that.
I note that Blum ignores a lot of stuff (you can read his whole post below).
Can anyone help me to answer his questions so I can write an e-mail to him?
Thankyou!
Kind regards,

From William Blum's Anti-Empire Report, March 22 2006:
September 11, 2001
Many readers have asked me why I haven't expressed any opinion about the events of that infamous day. The reason is that I preferred to not get entangled in all the complexity and controversy, the arguments and hard feelings, without any clear answers. But, very briefly, here goes.
Almost all of those who have asked me this believe that it was all planned and carried out by US government officials. I don't think so. Not that I would put it past the imperial mafia morally. I just think the complications would have made it next to impossible to stage with such "success", and without making it obvious to virtually everyone. I think what's more likely is that the government knew that some terrorist act involving aircraft was being planned and they let it happen so as to make use of it politically, or they watched the progress of the planning to see where it would lead, and perhaps capture other plotters, and they waited too long, which is apparently what happened in the first terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in 1993. There is an impressive body of evidence indicating that various government officials had knowledge of the broad outline of the 2001 planned deed, if not every detail.
I also think that some of the questions raised by 9-11 researchers are not very impressive. Like no one has given me a good explanation as to why the government would want to destroy building 7. And the fact that Bush quietly spent time in a class with young students after hearing about the first plane -- If it was being staged he would have reacted in a different way. Or that several of the hijackers turned up "alive" in the Middle East. Why couldn't their identity have been stolen? And more things like that.
There are numerous questions about the official version -- which leaves the government completely innocent, albeit incompetent -- that make it very difficult to take the story at face value, but one doesn't therefore have to jump to the other extreme of a government operation.

Subject: Re: Mind Reading Devices?
Thanks for sending this. I 'm going to look at it very carefully. I am seeing alot of behavior recently which makes me think that may people have been somehow "Stepforded"--and I haven't been able to figure out how this has happened to people. I have had some individual reports from individuals of a perception that they were being "beamed" while sleeping--but it is all so strange--one doesn't know what to think or believe...
All I am sure of is that many, many people have been somehow "accessed" so that the normal human responses to what is happening now--which would be outrage, alarm, resistance--have been manipulated.
Thanks again,
Janet

http://www.datafilter.com/mc/remoteBehavioralInfluence.html Remote Behavioral Influence Technology Evidence John J. McMurtrey, M. S.[a], Copyright 2003, 23 Dec. 2003[b]
People discerning remote manipulation by technology capable of such influence have formed protest organizations across the world.[1] [2] [3] [4] Educated society is uninformed regarding authentic documentation of the development and existence of these technologies, and unaware of the dangers. Complaint of ‘hearing voices’ and perception of other remote manipulation must receive appropriate scientific and legal investigation with protection. Professional awareness is virtually absent with eminent texts and opinion being presumptuous, without appraisal of the evidence.
Herein is substantiated:
1. Human wireless internal voice transmission and tracking technologies.
2. Reports of electroencephalographic (EEG) thought reading capacity, evidence of covert development, and remote EEG capture technology.
3. References to the use of these, or similar technologies against humans.
MICROWAVE HEARING
The first American[c] [5] to publish on the microwave hearing effect was Allan H. Frey in 1962,[6] yet radar technicians had anecdotes of microwave perception in World War II.[7] Deaf and normal subjects, even with earplugs, can hear appropriately pulsed microwaves at least up to thousands of feet from the transmitter.[8] Transmitter parameters above those producing the effect result in a severe buffeting of the head with dizziness and nausea, while parameters below the effect induce a pins and needles sensation. Peak power is the major determinant of loudness, though there is some dependence on pulse width. Pulse modulation appears to influence pitch and timbre. The effect “is the most easily and reliably replicated of low power density (microwave) illumination.” [9] Review of human and animal microwave hearing confirmation by independent investigators of the effect establishes validity.[10] [11] [12] [13] [14] Designs for scaring birds away from aircraft or other hazards by
microwave hearing[15] and induction of vertigo[16] exist.[17] [18]
While working for the Advanced Research Projects Agency at Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, Sharp and Grove discovered “receiverless” and “wireless” voice transmission. [19] Their method was simple: the negative deflections of voiceprints from recorded spoken numbers were caused to trigger microwave pulses. Upon illumination by such verbally modulated energy, the words were understood remotely. The discovery’s applications are “obviously not limited to therapeutic medicine” according to James C. Lin in Microwave Auditory Effects and Applications.[20]
A Defense Intelligence Agency review of Communist literature affirmed microwave sound and indicated voice transmission. The report states, “Sounds and possibly even words which appear to be originating intracranially (within the head) can be induced by signal modulation at very low average power densities.” [21] Among microwave weapon implications are “great potential for development into a system for disorientating or disrupting the behavior patterns of military or diplomatic personnel.” An Army Mobility Equipment Research and Development Command report affirms microwave speech transmission with applications of “camouflage, decoy, and deception operations.” [22] “One decoy and deception concept presently being considered is to remotely create noise in the heads of personnel by exposing them to low power, pulsed microwaves . . . By proper choice of pulse characteristics, intelligible speech may be created” quotes the report.
The Brunkan Patent # 4877027 “Hearing system” is a device capable of verbal microwave hearing. [23] The invention converts speech for remote introduction into the head by parabolic antenna with indication of direct microwave influence on neural activity. The microwave spectrum granted is broad: 100-10,000 MHz (0.1-10 GHz.) Pulse characteristics are essential to perception. Bursts of narrowly grouped, evenly spaced pulses determine sound intensity by their amount per unit time. Although a wide spectrum is patented, with ranges of pulse and burst duration, preferred operation has burst duration at 2 microseconds, and pulse duration at 100 nanoseconds. Operation is at 1000 MHz, which is the frequency of optimal tissue penetration.[24] Another patent application based on microwave bursts is “designed in such a way that the burst frequencies are at least virtually equal to the sound frequencies of the sounds picked up by the microphone,” though the transducer here is not
remote.[25]
Stocklin Patent # 4858612 “Hearing device” 7 affirms the microwave hearing effect. Stocklin gives exposition to the concept that a microwave component is part of neurophysiology and electroencephalogram (EEG) potentials.[26] Microwaves are considered both emitted and absorbed by nerve cell membrane proteins. Microwaves generally excite the brain[27] perhaps by influencing calcium,[28] a central ion in nerve firing.[29] Stocklin represents the auditory cortex as normally producing microwave energy, which the device simulates, thus eliciting sound sensation. Each acoustic tone is weighted for several microwave frequencies by a formula called the mode matrix, which is used to calculate best perception requirements. Observation of EEG desynchronization, delta waves, and brain wave amplitudes helps calibrate the device.[30] The lowest frequency for hearing is estimated by the cephalic index. Microwave speech transmission in this patent is unremote with the antenna over and sized
for the auditory cortex. Other patents have non-remote transducers of radiowave elicited hearing. [31] [32]
Descriptions in the above patents attribute microwave hearing to direct neural influence. However, the most accepted mechanism in review is by thermoelastic expansion,12 most likely inducing bone conducted hearing. The cochlea does appear to be involved, but not the middle ear.14 This divergence of mechanism illustrates the non-thermal/thermal controversy. US exposure standards are based on thermal effects, yet there are effects very difficult to explain by thermodynamics.13 [33] All accept thermal effects at some level, yet the thermal only school is rather dogmatic related to liability issues of commercial[34] and national security concern.[35] It must be said that the open literature regarding microwave hearing indicates a thermo-acoustic mechanism.
“Communicating Via the Microwave Auditory Effect.” is the title of a small business contract for the Department of Defense. Communication initial results are: “The feasibility of the concept has been established” using both low and high power systems.[36] A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request as to the project’s outcome met with denial on the part of the Air Force, on the grounds that disclosure “could reasonably be expected to cause damage to national security.” [37] Though the Air Force denied the FOIA disclosure, such a contract’s purpose is elaborated by the Air Force’s “New World Vistas” report: “It would also appear possible to create high fidelity speech in the human body, raising the possibility of covert suggestion and psychological direction . . . . If a pulse stream is used, it should be possible to create an internal acoustic field in the 5-15 kilohertz range, which is audible. Thus it may be possible to ‘talk’ to selected adversaries in a fashion that would be
most disturbing to them.” [38] Robert Becker, whose eminence was enough to have been twice nominated for the Nobel Prize in biological electromagnetic fields research, is more explicit: “Such a device has obvious applications in covert operations designed to drive a target crazy with “voices” or deliver undetectable instructions to a programmed assassin.” [39]
The above Army efforts had results. A microwave voice transmission non-lethal weapon is referenced in the thesaurus of the Center for Army Lessons Learned, which is a military instruction website.18 The military thesaurus entry lists analogous devices using “silent sound.” [d] [40]
ULTRASOUND TRANSMISSION OF VOICE
Internal voice capability, without discernment by others nearby. is also evident in ultrasound-based technology. Lowrey Patent # 6052336 “Apparatus and method of broadcasting audible sound using ultrasonic sound as a carrier” clearly focuses on non-lethal weapon application against crowds or directed at an individual.[41] Communication is understood as an inner voice with loss of the directional quality of sound perception. “Since most cultures attribute inner voices either as a sign of madness, or as messages from spirits or demons, both of which . . . evoke powerful emotional reactions”, quotes the Lowrey patent’s effect on people. Replaying speech, with a delay impedes talking and causes stuttering. Normal brain wave patterns can be changed (or entrained), which “may cause temporary incapacitation, intense feelings of discomfort.” This technique is detailed by Monroe Patent # 5356368 “Method of and apparatus for inducing desired states of consciousness”, with license to
Interstate Industries and involves an auditory replication of brainwave patterns to entrain the EEG as desired.[42]
Norris Patent # 5889870 “Acoustic heterodyne device and method”, directionally produces sound on interference (or heterodyning) of two ultrasound beams.[43] The cancellation leaves the carried audible sound perceivable. The effect becomes apparent particularly within cavities such as the ear canal. An individual readily understands communication across a noisy crowed room without nearby discernment. Sound can also be produced from mid-air or as reflecting from any surface.
American Technology Corporation, which licensed this patent, has an acoustic non-lethal weapons technology,[44] a cooperative agreement with the Army Research & Development Command,[45] and is working with numerous other government agencies.[46] The corporation’s Long Range Acoustic Devices (LRADTM) account for 60% of military sales, and have integration into the Navy’s situational awareness & radar surveillance systems[47] with deployment on naval vessels and fleet harbors.[48] A popular magazine writer describes the device’s inner nature of sound perception.[49] From separate references, non-lethal weapons treatments affirm sound localization and individual ultrasound effect limitation[50] with obvious lack of nearby discernment;[51] the latter by a non-lethal weapons program director. A similar ultrasound method of limiting sound to one person, Audio Spotlight is marketed, with exhibition at Boston’s Museum of Science and the Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum.[52] Both
the American Technology device and Audio Spotlight are discussed in an article with some history of ultrasound acoustics, which has origins in sonar.[53] Other acoustic influence methods may utilize ultrasound.[e] [54]
TARGET TRACKING TECHNOLOGY
The maintenance of effects on people requires obstacle penetration and target tracking. These internal voice capable energy forms penetrate obstruction and can be localized. Sound transmission through enclosures is commonly experienced. An inaudible ultrasound high intensity carrier wave is unnoticed. Solid defect inspection is one use of ultrasound, which is being developed to discern movement through walls.[55] Common technology utilizes the microwave hearing spectrum, which partly or completely encompasses cell phone,[56] [57] TV, and radar frequencies. [58] Commercial signals are not perceived, since the hearing effect requires pulsation within the limits that elicit perception. A variety of antennae localize the structurally penetrating microwave illumination with collimation or focusing.[59] [60] A patent, “compatible for mobile platforms with DEWs,” (Directed Energy Weapons) includes a modified Luneburg lens emitting parallel rays with over 50 years utilization.[61]
Hablov Patent # 5448501 “Electronic life detection system” is for microwave radar within the hearing spectrum that finds and distinguishes individuals through obstruction.[62] Therein is stated: “the modulated component of the reflected microwave signal . . . subjected to frequency analysis . . . forms a type of “electronic fingerprint“ of the living being with characteristic features, which . . . permits a distinction between different living beings.” Though this patent has use in trapped victim rescue, another Hablov et. al. Patent # 5530429 “Electronic surveillance system” detects interlopers with security emphasis.[63] Other literature describes the basic method.[64]
The Hablov et. al. patents discern people thru structures by vital organ motion, but others offer more detailed imaging. Fullerton et. al. Patent # 6400307 “System and method for intrusion detection using a time domain radar array” is such a design,[65] and is commercially available as RadarVision by Time Domain. [66] Further designs for imaging within structures include: a portable system determining suspect distance,[67] and presentations by the International Society for Optical Engineering.[68] [69] Software for displaying radar detection on a personal computer is sold.[70]
Rowan Patent # 4893815 “Interactive transector device commercial and military grade” describes the acquisition, locking onto, and tracking of human targets.[71] Stated therein: “Potentially dangerous individuals can be efficiently subdued, apprehended and appropriately detained.” The capability of “isolating suspected terrorists from their hostages . . . or individuals within a group without affecting other members of the group” is stated. Laser, radar, infrared, and acoustic sensor fusion is utilized to identify, seek, and locate targets. Locking illumination upon the target until weapons engagement accomplishes tracking. Among available non-lethal weapons is an incapacitating electromagnetic painful pulse. Another target tracking system is the Manportable Surveillance and Target Acquisition Radar by Systems & Electronics, Inc., which is capable of tracking moving targets including personnel. This system has an auto target track feature, and lists moving target detection as
12 km for a walking man.[72]
A track initiation processor acquires a target, while a data association filter maintains a tracking lock on the target.[73] An original method for target tracking is the Kalman filter. Numerous weapons guidance examples utilize similar processes and illuminate targets for tracking. Laser illumination is also used for non-human targets.[74] Other examples utilize microwave beam target recognition and weapons guidance.[75] [76] Target illumination tracking systems have nanosecond to microsecond response times. Such responses do not require a wide scan area to lock illumination upon persons at achievable speeds. At 90 miles per hour an auto travels less than 1/100 of an inch in a microsecond.
DISCUSSION
Ultrasound voice transmission technology is publicly demonstrated in museum exhibits. The numerous microwave voice transmission citations rest on a considerable foundation of microwave hearing literature. Internal voice non-lethal weapon applications are discussed in many of the citations. There are are examples of either existence or sales of non-lethal weapons based on both technologies. Numerous designs involving human location, identification, and tracking methods, have long demonstrated the feasibility of constructing devices capable of producing internal voice continuously in isolated individuals. To deny such technological capabilities in the face of extensive complaint is willfully to ignore documented development of the relevant technologies and engineering competence for complete integration.
THOUGHT READING CAPACITY
Many people who report experiencing remote behavioral influence also perceive mind reading. Thought reading capacity, or brain wave analysis word recognition, is seriously reported. Publications by a Stanford group support and report recognition of specific words from brain waves,[77] [78] [79] [80] with recent enhanced success. [81] Other investigators publish above chance magnetoencephalographic (MEG) word recognition.[82] The current publications lack reference to a 1975 US government technical report of prior results from Stanford comparable to the recent articles,[83] and an apparent Russian report of specific EEG word recognition before 1981.[84] Electroencephalographic (EEG) instant detection by syllables of “a content of category which the testee wishes to speak” quotes Kiyuna et. al. Patent # 5785653 “System and method for predicting internal condition of live body.” [85] A stated use: “the present invention may be use (sic) to detect the internal condition of
surveillance in criminal investigation” by EEG. NEC Corporation licensed this patent. Remote EEG communication with Armed Forces or clandestine application are the cited uses for Mardirossian Patent # 6011991 “Communication system and method including brain wave analysis and/or use of brain activity.” [86] This patent affirms EEG word recognition, proposes transmitter capable skin implants, utilizes neural networks (artificial intelligence), and is licensed by Technology Patents, LLC.
Activation of brain cell assemblies provides a theoretical framework[87] for the above word recognition reports, and extensive publications of averaged EEG word category differentiation. These differentiation reports themselves are consistent with specific word recognition, since their basis is by visual analysis of averaged categories, without the use of sophisticated computer programs as are essential for specific word recognition. Based on EEG/MEG responses, words can be differentiated as to length, [88] and visual nouns can be differentiated from action verbs.[89] [90] [91] [92] [93] Brain wave patterns distinguish proper names from common nouns, [94] animal names from numerals,[95] or content from function words.[96] [97] [98] [99] Face, arm, or leg action verbs are reported distinguished by brain waves as well.[100] [101] Concrete versus abstract words,[102] and unambiguous versus ambiguous noun/verbs[103] have distinctive EEG patterns.
Some of these word category differentiation reports are consistent with both the specific recognition reports, and/or the differentiation of non-verbal cognition. Based on EEG/MEG responses, words are readily distinguished from non-words,[104] [105] [106] or pictures.[107] EEG differentiation of words rated as to affective meaning such as good-bad, strong-weak, or active-passive is reported.[108] [109]
Other literature indicates EEG differentiation of completely non-verbal cognition. Emotion differentiation by EEG is patented, referencing Air Force research.[110] Movement anticipation potentials (bereitschaftspotential) and those of actual movement are detectable by EEG.[111] [112] EEG movement signals have been used to move a cursor left or right,[113] and just the imagination of movement is sufficiently distinguished by EEG to control switches,[114] or control prosthesis grasp.[115] Guiding robots through simulated rooms by EEG detection of imagining the spinning of cubes or arm rising of appropriate direction is reported.[116] [117] [118] Even more complex grasping and reaching robot arm control has been achieved by signals from implanted brain electrodes in monkeys without body arm movement.[119] A number of groups have developed procedures to detect deception based on the P300 (positive @ 300 millisec.) event related potential (ERP) from EEG.[120] [121] [122] [123]
[124] [125] A commercial system, Brain Fingerprinting,[126] which includes analysis of a late negative ERP potential and frequency analysis in addition to the P300, even asserts 100% accuracy over five separate studies.[127] [128] [129] [130] [131] [f]
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies also report differentiation of cognitive states. Different fMRI brain activation loci for face, natural and manufactured object recognition are reviewed.[132] Neural network differentiation of fMRI response to noun categories for fish, four legged animals, trees, flowers, fruits, vegetables, family members, occupations, tools, kitchen items, dwellings, and building parts is reported.[133] Distinguishing truthful from deceptive responses by fMRI is also reported.[134] [135] [136] [137] The ability to discern the state of romantic love towards an individual by fMRI has report as well.[138]
The research arm of agencies with missions to covertly acquire information would certainly develop to operational capability any technologic thought reading potential. Assertions that such development has progressed are multiple, and two are confirmed by details of the 1975 government EEG specific word recognition report, which itself is evidence of development covert to open databases.83 An International Committee of the Red Cross Symposium synopsis states EEG computer mind reading development by Lawrence Pinneo in 1974 at Stanford.[139] A letter by the Department of Defense Assistant General Counsel for Manpower, Health, and Public Affairs, Robert L. Gilliat in 1976 affirmed brain wave reading by the Advanced Research Projects Agency.[140] “Thought reading or synthetic telepathy” communications technology procurement is considered in a 1993 Jane’s[g] Special Operations Forces (SOF) article: “One day, SOF commandos may be capable of communicating through thought processes.”
[141] Descriptive terms are “mental weaponry and psychic warfare” Although contemplated in future context, the availability of a technology without adaptation to troop level requirements is implied, since anticipation of mobile deployment would have to assume prior development.
In 1976, the Malech Patent # 3951134 “Apparatus and method for remotely monitoring and altering brain waves” was granted.[142] Example of operation is at 100 and 210 MHz; frequencies penetrating obstruction. “The individual components of the system for monitoring and controlling brain wave activity may be of conventional type commonly employed in radar”; and “The system permits medical diagnosis of patients, inaccessible to physicians, from remote stations” are quotes indicating remote capacity. License is to Dorne & Margolin Inc., but now protection is expired with public domain. The Malech patent utilizes interference of 210 and 100 MHz frequencies resulting in a 110 MHz return signal, which is demodulated to give EEG waveform.
The capability of remote EEG is predicted by electromagnetic scattering theory using ultrashort pulses, which are not part of the Malech patent.[143] Ultrashort pulses are currently defined in the range of 10-12 to 10-15 second. Considering that EEG word elicited potentials are comparatively long (hundreds of milliseconds), indicates that remote radar EEG capture is adequate to word recognition, with ultrashort pulses allowing some 109 or more radar reflections in a millisecond (10-3 sec.)
The possibility of impressing an ‘experience set’ on an individual by ultrashort pulses is also contemplated.143 The above patent can alter brain waves as well as detect them. Microwave non-lethal weapon brain wave disruption[144] and behavioral change including unconsciousness[145] are known.35
The above EEG telemetry patent and ultrashort pulse method are by active radar probe. Yet a passive field extends as far as 12 feet from man as detected by a cryogenic antenna.[146] A technical article maintains this device as entirely adaptable to clandestine applications, and pointedly comments on the disappearance of physiological remote sensing literature since the 1970’s for animals and humans, while all other categories of remote sensing research greatly expanded.[147]
DISCUSSION
Complete rejection of assertions of a remote mind reading capability is just as presumptuous, in the face of complaints, as has been the dismissal of internal voice capacity. Considerable capacity to detect and differentiate mental states is evident from literature reports particularly by EEG. The fact that EEG movement imagination signals are detected for robot guidance on a voluntary unprompted basis116 117 118 suggests a similar capacity is feasible for specific EEG word identification, which has only been reported for word prompted responses. Though references to remote EEG are less, they provide plausibly exploitable mechanisms, which may be covertly developed.
LEGAL AND INTERNATIONAL REFERENCES TO BEHAVIORAL INFLUENCE TECHNOLOGIES
References to behavioral influence weapon use by government bodies and international organizations are numerous. Negotiation submissions to the United Nations Committee on Disarmament affirm the reality of microwave weapon nervous system effects.[148] European Parliament passage of resolutions calling for conventions regulating non-lethal weapons and the banning of “weapons which might enable any form of manipulation of human beings” [149] includes neuro-influence capability.[150] A resolution relates to HAARP, High Frequency Active Auroral Research Project, which has environmental consequences, and although utilizing high frequency, ionospheric extra low frequencies (ELF) emanation results. Since ELF is within brain wave frequencies the project has capacity to influence whole populations.[151] [152] President Carter’s National Security Advisor, Zbigniew Brzezinski, predicted development of such capacity.[153] Nature News reports concern by a French government panel about the
potential for thought reading and such a remote capacity.[154] An American draft law prohibiting land, sea, or space-based weapons using electromagnetic, psychotronic (behavioral influence), and sound technologies “directed at individual persons or targeted populations for the purpose of information war, mood management, or mind control” has not yet passed.[155] Russian electromagnetic standards are nearly 1000 times lower than the West, so their weapon law forbidding electromagnetic weapons exceeding Health Department parameters is strict.[156] The Russian draft law explicitly references behavioral influence non-lethal weapons, and development in several countries.[157] Resolutions by the International Union of Radio Science recognize criminal use of electromagnetic technology, though largely relevant to use against infrastructure.[158]
MICROWAVE AND ULTRASOUND USE AGAINST HUMANS
The microwave irradiation of the American Embassy in Moscow received little publicity until the winter of 1976 instillation of protective screening, but irradiation was known since 1953.34 Original frequencies were 2.56-4.1 GHz with additional intermittent 0.6-9.5 GHz signals being permanent by 1975 in a wide band frequency hopping[h] consistent pattern with one signal pulsating. The irradiation was directional from nearby buildings and modulated. Complaint to the Soviets had no avail, but the signals disappeared in January 1979 “reportedly as a result of a fire in one or more of the buildings.” [159] A 9-11 GHz signal recurred in 1988.[160] Observed frequencies are basically within the microwave hearing spectrum, and pulsation is required. Psychiatric cases occurred during the exposure period, though no epidemiologic relationship was revealed with fully a quarter of the medical records unavailable, and comparison with other Soviet Bloc posts.159 The CIA had Dr. Milton Zaret
review medical Soviet microwave literature to determine the purpose of the irradiation. He concluded the Russians “believed the beam would modify the behavior of the personnel.” [161] In 1976 the post was declared unhealthful and pay raised 20% 140
The most documented citizen microwave irradiation was of peace protesters at Greenham Common American Air Force Base in Berkshire England, who prompted investigation of unusual symptoms.[162] Radiation measurements exhibited microwaves with symptom experience up to a hundred times the background level, and rose sharply on protests nearer the base.160 Symptoms became pronounced on cruise missile transport, a protest focus.160 Recorded were wide ranging complaints: skin burns; ‘severe’ headaches; drowsiness; temporary paralysis; incoordinated speech; two late (5 mos.) spontaneous abortions; an apparent circulatory failure; and unlike usual menstrual synchronization, irregular or postmenopausal menstruation. The symptom complex fits well with electromagnetic exposure syndrome 160 It has also been reported that some of the women ‘heard voices.’[163] The base closed finally in 1991.
Criminal directed energy weapon use has been reported in Germany.[164] In a number of cases there is similarity of circumstances, complaints, and symptoms. In at least one case microwave fields have been measured with exclusion of the usual sources (cell phone towers, etc.)[165] Plans for construction of a crude device from a microwave oven are sold.164
Measurement of non-ionizing radiation fields in the vicinity of an Australian victim is described.[166] The intensity ranged from 7 mV in an adjacent room to 35 mV next to the head. The victim suffered from multiple personality disorder attributed to ritual abuse, and claimed an implant with radiological evidence.
Ultrasound behavioral influence technology use in Northern Ireland is cited [167] The device could focus on one person; and utilized ultrasound cancellation like those patented. It was employed in Vietnam by the Americans, and is known as the squawk box. Mentioned infrasound frequency (ultrasound carrier directed) is like Loos 1/25/00 patent, with psychological effects summarized as ‘spooky.’ More detail by a defense journalist is quoted: “When the two frequencies mix in the human ear they become intolerable. Some people exposed to the device are said to feel giddy or nauseous and in extreme cases they faint. Most people are intensely annoyed by the device and have a compelling wish to be somewhere else.” [168] British police inventories list the specific device, though a spokesman denied use.160
Sophisticated behavioral influence capability is confirmed by ex-intelligence officers. Julianne McKinney, Director of The National Security Alumni Electronic Surveillance Project is prominent. This is a largely classified employee victim study with internal voice transmission avowal.[169]
CONCLUSION
The logic in the prediction by Brzezinski[i] of the appearance of a more controlled and directed society dominated by a power elite willing to use the latest modern techniques for influencing behavior without hindrance by liberal democratic values is compelling.153 Potential behavioral influence targets are multiple. Since those supposedly expert regard a victim’s perceptions as psychotic, all complaints are disregarded, not to mention capability to bear witness. Targets may include anyone worth neutralization: domestic adversaries;[170] security risks, which may only comprise classified disclosures; persons witnessing serious improprieties; and those prone to committing advantageous felonies. Legality is readily circumvented by executive orders, (particularly declaration of a crisis or emergency situation), which can be sealed, and this prerogative is only accountable to co-equal branches of government as is now the case with terrorism suspects. Internal voice technology is
most applicable within the same language and culture. Space here limits more than mention of remote EEG influence capacity, hypnosis, and footnoting remote subliminal technique. Hypnotic or subliminal message presentation represent particularly insidious means of influencing thought, mood, behavior, and undermining civil liberties.
Most complainants allege public sector involvement or sub-contracted private companies.[171] Remote behavioral influence research has long been funded by the US,39 with evidence of development19 22 36 45 46 and weapons,18 44 47 48 51 though denying on national security grounds project results37 and foreign literature analyses.[172] Some thirty countries evidence active behavioral influence weapon research.[173]
Though there is some scant psychoanalytical acknowledgement,[174] current medical awareness ensures effective neutralization of the afflicted. Not all those affected are stigmatized. However phenomena of ‘hearing voices’, or perception of remote manipulation, when recounted to health professionals results in various stigmatizing diagnoses, [175] [176] totally without investigation. Determination of relevant fields around complainants is mandatory, or abatement by proven shielding of such phenomena. Professional opinions formed without excluding these technologies are negligent.
The medical community has long heard either identical or similar complaint[177] to that above delineated as known internal voice technology from numerous victims. This fact indicts the scholarship and presumption of impossibility evident in the pertinent medical literature. In addition, microwave bioeffects have considerable congruence with reported symptoms of major psychosis other than ’voices.’ [178] All of society should be disturbed at the prospect of technologic induction of voice, since the unaware subject would perceive such voices as his own natural thought, without such an assault as to provoke complaint.
It is difficult to deny the level of substantiation for the possibility that a thought reading capacity exists, even with references that support a remote basis. The logic that in the thirty years since the Pinneo work started, this capability has had full development is too sound to dismiss victim corroboration. It would have to be admitted that funding for projects by the defense and security agencies is considerably greater than for open science, and that thought reading would be a priority area. Educated democracies should not be complacent at this prospect, given the potential for political control, and existence of a remote EEG method in the public domain.

Subject: Jockeying for Position On the Deck of the Titanic
Three interesting aspects of the Hannity and Colmes presentation are
that they 'permit' Sheen to do a somewhat entended presentation;ei,
the 911 info (finally) IS on National TV on prime time. Two, they
say that "if there's evidence of controlled demolition, we'll debate
it." Of couse there is evidence, hard evidence, and of course they
ALL know it (are they themselves working on the dam to break?).
Three, they attempt to make the issue into a Sheen-Hollywood "thing"
and I find this the most interesting and weirdest point of all. Even
on CNN they're looking for "other people in Hollywood that "feel"
the same way", Alex Jones was quick enough to point this is not a
Sheen-Alex Jones affair...
My take on the New York Magazine Story, CNN and this "expose" is
that the powers that be are testing the waters, taking the
temperature of the country, by letting snipets of selected info
by "lunies" into the air to see what happens. In essense, they have
admitted defeat and are presently doing damage control. Sheen has
little do to with 911 but how does the public react? Will there be
an avalanche? Will they storm the Whitehouse? Can they contain 911
by doing a character assasination on Sheen? (not likely).
Nonetheless, interesting how they jokey for position on the deck of
the Titanic.

Subject: Re: We ain't out of the woods yet people!
Dear 9/11 Colleagues,
I hope Angie has time to respond to this because she's so highly
qualified in these particular matters.
I don't find this analysis at all compelling. Rather, I think
it's quite forced--and thus unconvincing.
I'm only slightly familiar with Daryl Bradford Smith's earlier
commentary but thus far I see him as just one more kook much more
interested in attracting attention to himself than in accomplishing
anything significant. In fact, this is giving him the benefit of the
doubt because the alternative is that he's a divide-and-conquer
specialist intent on causing as much division and suspicion as possible
within the 9/11 Truth Movement. Please see my earlier comment on him
pasted at bottom of this--and note that in this instance also he was
being divisive rather than unifying.
With highest regards,
Pondo

It seems to me that if 9/11 starts getting mainstream, we may consider
using the 9/11 exposure force to truly change our society. Perhaps we
can use it on a global scale not just the USA.
We can all envision a more just society, with a strong social fabric,
to become a beacon of hope for positive social change. A real global
golden jubilee.
To that ends, we could consider nationalization of all energy, banking
and insurance companies, in the name of the 911 victims. These
companies take billions of dollars of our economy and our pockets, and
corrupt/disrupt our society. worldwide.
Let work for Public video and audio in every legislature, courtroom,
bar association and hearing room. Just a couple of ideas to keep it
going. Some people have said, OK, we know about 9-11 being an inside
job, now what do we do?

GOVERNMENT OF THE USA IN EXILE
Free Americans Reaching Out to Amerika's Huddled Masses Yearning
to Breathe Free
Via <prez@usa-exile.org>
December 22, 2005
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
I'm quite grateful to Jeremy below for his tremendously important
Editorial.
I'd been equally shocked by Daryl Bradford Smith's two-faced
behavior (i.e., hip to 9/11 Inside Job but not to ETs) and have been
trying to get time to express myself about it. Ah, but Jeremy's
expression is both more polite and more thorough than mine would have
been.
What's at stake here most importantly is that unless we overcome
being so divided (and thus so conquered), we stand little chance in our
resistance to the Fourth Reich's current main puppets, the Bush Junta.
There must be a coalition much much broader than anything to date
in homeplanet history. It must include nearly everyone opposed to the
Bush Junta and it must behave in a way signifying it knows that the
Fourth Reich controls both mainstream US political parties. (So we can
avoid all the current loyal-opposition bullshit.) If a person is
opposed to the junta because he or she thinks it isn't adequately
preparing a defense against an ET invasion, I'm quite willing to work
with that person within certain specific contexts of resistance even
though I think it's highly likely that we'd already have been invaded
if any of the ETs had that sort of interest.
But how can we build such a broad coalition when someone like
Smith--so well-informed in nearly all respects--is in such hysterical
Denial merely about visits by folks from various off-planet cultures?
What is it about this sort of info that's so nerve-wracking to
him? I'm not sure but I want to suggest that in the interests of
coalition-building we should minimize negative moral judgments about
him and instead concentrate on the human nervous system's quite limited
ability to absorb what certain existentialists called nonbeing--and
which we might these days call bummers.
There are yogas available--in secular scientific form, let me
hasten to add--which as daily practices can steadily increase our
neural stamina--that is, increase the quantities of bummers we can
absorb before physiologically (and thus a negative moral judgment here
is inappropriate) needing to escape into Denial: All Work and No Play
Makes Jack a Dull Boy. Whenever I exceed the quantities I can handle,
I succumb to Information Illness: mainly a spectacular exhaustion but
also usually a bit of vague depression.) I wish I could learn to
discern when I've nearly exceeded what I can handle.
Never before in homeplanet history have people had to face so many
different sorts of bummers simultaneously. The lower the human
population-density you inhabit, the easier it is. It's toughest of all
for those who have lived many consecutive years within Manhattan
Island's overwhelming densities--as people like Danny Schechter and A.
J. Weberman so poignantly exemplify.
If any of you have friends who aren't yet convinced that we're
being visited by folks from more mature solar systems, please ask them
to absorb the 2001 National Press Club news conference featured at
<disclosureproject.com> .
Another totally convincing portrayal--though much less
accessible--is the 1997 three-part BBC World Service radio series. In
fact, I'll cover costs of obtaining a copy of those three broadcasts
for the first person to email me that he or she will do so. (Evidently
a credit card is necessary and I disdain them.) It was produced by a
fiction writer named Anthony Gray, who went into it totally skeptically
(probably the only reason BBC hired him) but evolved into total
acceptance. The BBC was so embarrassed by his sudden acceptance that
it aired his shows at a time (0230-0300 GMT) guaranteeing the smallest
possible European audience. They occurred the last Friday of August
and the first two Fridays of September. I don't have a 1997 calendar
but I think the dates would be 8/29, 9/5 and 9/12.
In any case, let's work on convening all the various US movements
so they can--for example--agree on targets for massive boycotts. This
way, we stand a chance of finally becoming very expensive for the
reichers--and thus perhaps finally effective enough to influence their
behavior in a manner favorable to the survival of humans and other
species. For money is nearly all they understand.

Subject: [911TruthAction] Article on Daryl Bradford Smith
Reply-To: 911TruthAction@yahoogroups.com
I wrote the following and send it along to others of the truth movement
fyi.... Jeremy
TOLERATING OUTRAGOUS CONSPIRACY THEORIES
I am very active in the 911 truth movement.
Last night I listened to an internet broadcast by Daryl Bradford
Smith with
guest Eric Hufschmidt, creator of the seminal 911 video and
book, Painful
Deceptions and Painful Questions.
Both were bemoaning the "contamination" of the 911 truth movement
by people who believe in UFOs and other mysteries certified by a
consensus of mainstream
academia as unworthy of serious study. The Amazing Randi would be
proud to join
in their call for dismissing such topics. I am not.
Mr. Smith has posted a statement on his site calling for all
rational people
to castigate those who even discuss topics such as UFOs. I wrote Mr.
Smith,
stating that a respect for others' beliefs is fundamental in any effort
to convince
others of a truth they are yet unaware of. His response was
unrelenting.
Issac Newton and Edmund Haley were friends. They once had a
discussion on
alchemy. You may know that Newton spent half his labors on the study
of alchemy.
When Haley protested this foolishness, Newton responded, "I, sir, have
studied
the subject, you have not."
And so it is with UFOs and Crop Circles. Anyone who dismisses
them as
ridiculous has not done their homework. Has Mr. Smith studied the
cases of Betty and Barney
Hill, the Allagash incident, Travis Walton, Roswell, the works of
Stanton Friedman,
Alan Hynek, John Mack, the governments of Belgium, France, Mexico, et
al. and a
whole shipload of other witnesses, researchers and officials whose
claims and empirical
data have withstood years of assault by those out to prove them
unworthy?
Did he talk to the late Professor Hawkins who discovered five new
theorems
from the Crop Circle geometry? Can he explain the molecular change in
the stalks
of plants bent over in Crop Circles? Can he explain the
electromagnetic anomalies
measured in the circles or a host of other anomalies that defy a
manmade explanation?
If he has, I sure wish he would share his logical conclusions with the
rest of the
world so we can put these mysteries aside. But I'm willing to venture
a high
probability that he has no answers. He ain't alone. But the rest of
us don't
feel a necessity to chide others for their beliefs just because the
subject matter
is discussed by a wide variety of persons with claims that have little
or no scientific
backing.......so far.
In a high-level conspiracy like 911, the powers behind it seem to
employ a
tactic of infiltrating the truth movement with disinformation. The
purpose is so
that ordinary people looking into the conspiracy, but not yet well
informed of the
facts, will see a lie and will then quickly dismiss the whole effort to
uncover
a conspiracy as just so much nonsense. Mr. Smith seems to have fallen
victim not
so much to the act of covert disinformation, (though there seems to be
plenty of
that in the UFO and crop circle field, as Dr. Hynek and George
Wingfield and others
have stated), but by his rejection of the innocent interpretations of a
phenomenon
by people with no allegiance to the scientific method. Such persons
are not necessarily
wrong nor are they unworthy of a voice in society.
Scientifically, no one can say anything with 100% certainty. One
can only
give it a high or low degree of probability, based on a logical
evaluation of how
the data supports a working hypothesis. More and more, what was once
considered
ridiculous is becoming empirical. Professor Gary Schwartz's work with
mediums
and Professor Ian Stevenson's work on reincarnation and other rigorous
studies of
the paranormal hearken back to days when Giordano Bruno was burned for
heresy as
the old school began to crumble. Any fool can see the sun goes around
the earth.
It takes a special fool to see beyond the veil.
If Mr. Smith feels that people who think that we are being visited
by aliens
should be burned at the stake, that's his misfortune. But for those of
us
who are actively trying to spread 911 truth, he is a burden in our
efforts to convince
others to have an open mind.
The opinion polls show 80 percent of Americans think the government
is hiding
knowledge of the existence of extraterrestrial life forms. Shall we
not talk to
those people? Mr. Smith's call for chastising unofficial beliefs is
not only
ironic; it is limited hangout in our growth as a civilization.
I can forgive Eric for overactive skepticism. Perhaps his
intolerance is a
by-product of an extremely analytical mind that gave us his videos and
books. I
prefer to believe that one day both of these men and others who share
their disdain
for outrageous conspiracy theories will one day see that all is
relative and there
are more things in heaven and earth that are dreamt of in our
philosophy.

CNN Produces Balanced
Piece On Sheen 9/11 Comments
911 Blogger | March 23 2006
Comment: We are amazed and flabbergasted by how fair this piece is and
it should help encourage other high profile figures in the public eye
like Charlie Sheen to come forward.
Tonight marks the first instance where those that question 9/11 were
given a fair shake at voicing their opinions. While little can be said
in just 10 minutes of coverage, it was at the very least a reasonable
discussion and an important milestone for the 9/11 truth community.
911truth.org's media coordinator Mike Berger did a great job with the
short time he was allotted while the host A.J. Hammer allowed for a
good live discussion and avoided the all-to-familiar Bill O'Reilly
style of 'news'.
Despite the numerous questions surrounding 9/11 which have gone
unmentioned by the mainstream media for the last 4+ years, and the
growing number of respectable scholars, government officials, and
family members demanding answers - this is the first time a major news
station has covered 9/11 questions in any reasonable format, even if it
was on a Hollywood celebrity show. If the mainstream media were to
truly desire to cover 9/11 further I would hope in the future they
might consider a longer format so that all of the news and facts they
haven't bothered reporting over the last 4+ years might have a chance
to finally be seen and heard. (Hey Showtime and HBO, are you
listening?)
I urge all of those who support 9/11 being further discussed by CNN and
their affiliates to contact them via their feedback form here. Be sure
to reference the host A.J. Hammer, and the show 'Showbiz Tonight'.

Subject: Scholars affirm Cheney Complicity in 9/11
SCHOLARS AFFIRM CHENEY COMPLICITY IN 9/11
Experts conclude Vice President possessed foreknowledge and suggest
Moussaoui
trial a "distraction"
Duluth, MN (PRWEB) March 12, 2006--A society of experts and scholars
contends
that the prosecution of Zacarias Moussaoui--for willfully concealing
advance
knowledge of the events of 9/11--has the status of a Soviet-style "show
trial"
and functions as a diversion from the real culprits. The nonpartisan
group,
Scholars for 9/11 Truth, asserts that the evidence implicating Vice
President
Dick Cheney of that very offense is more obvious and compelling. If
they are
even remotely correct, then the alleged terrorists appear to have been
cast in
the role of "patsies."
The experts base their conclusion on testimony presented to the 9/11
Commission by U.S. Secretary of Transportation Norman Mineta on May 23,
2003,
which was omitted from its final report, and on related events at the
Pentagon. Members of the society will present their findings during a
press
conference to be held at 1 PM on Tuesday at the United States
Courthouse in
Alexandria, VA, the location of a trial to determine whether Moussaoui,
who is
called "the 20th hijacker", should serve a life term or receive the
death
sentence.
"Mineta's testimony is devastating," observed James H. Fetzer, Ph.D.,
McKnight
Professor at the University of Minnesota. Fetzer is the founder and
co-chair
of the scholars' society, which recently joined with Judicial Watch in
calling
for release of documents, films and videos, and physical evidence
withheld
from the public by the administration. "It pulls the plug on the
Commission's
contention there was no advance warning that the Pentagon was going to
be
hit."
According to Secretary Mineta's testimony, which is in the public
domain, when
he (Mineta) arrived at an underground bunker at the White House (known
as the
Presidential Emergency Operations Center), the Vice President was in
charge. "During the time that the airplane was coming in to the
Pentagon", he
stated, "there was a young man who would come in and say to the Vice
President, 'The plane is 50 miles out.' 'The plane is 30 miles out.'
"And when it got down to, 'The plane is 10 miles out,'" Mineta
continued, "the
young man also said to the Vice President, 'Do the orders still stand?'
And
the Vice President turned and whipped his neck around and said, 'Of
course the
orders still stand. Have you heard anything to the contrary?'" One way
to
construe these remarks could be that the orders were to shoot down the
plane.
The scholars suggest that that is an implausible interpretation. The
Pentagon,
they observe, may be the most heavily defended building in the world.
If the
orders had been to "shoot it down," then no doubt it would have been
shot
down. Moreover, there would have been no apparent reason for the young
man to
have expressed concern over whether or not "the orders still stand."
Shooting
it down, under the circumstances, would have been the thing to do.
"The only reasonable interpretation of the orders," Fetzer observed,
"is that
the incoming aircraft should not be shot down, which would have been an
obvious source of anxiety for an aide. Since it contradicts the
official story
about the Pentagon," he added, "it had to be suppressed and was not even
included in The 9/11 Commission Report." And other scholars, including
Professor David Ray Griffin of Claremont Graduate University, have
drawn the
same conclusion.
Philip J. Berg, Esq., Former Deputy Attorney General of Pennsylvania
and a
past candidate for Governor, Lt. Governor, and U.S. Senate from
Pennsylvania,
who is a member of Scholars for 9/11 Truth, added, "Those who made it
happen
were obviously in the position to know that it was going to happen and
therefore could have sounded a warning alarm. The case against Cheney
is more
powerful than the case against Moussaoui. No one is more culpable than
the
perpetrators. If Moussaoui deserves the death penalty, what does our
Vice
President deserve?"
Berg also represents William Rodriguez, a WTC witness, in a RICO lawsuit
against officials in the administration for complicity in the events of
9/11.
Other members of the society include Robert Bowman, head of the "Star
Wars"
program in both Democratic and Republican administrations; Morgan
Reynolds,
former Chief Economist for the Department of Labor in the Bush
administration;
Andreas von Buelow, former assistant defense minister of Germany; and
Griffin,
a noted theologian and author of The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions
and
Distortions.
Members of the society point to other indications of advance knowledge,
which
include volumes of put-options placed by betting that the stock value of
United and American Airlines would drop. The SEC has detailed
information
about those who placed the options, which it has not released to the
public. "Time and time again," Fetzer remarked, "evidence that would
expose
the official account to be a deception and a hoax intended to
manipulate the
nation has been concealed."
According to Fetzer, experts in the society of scholars, including
pilots and
aeronautical engineers, physicists and mechanical engineers, have
established
that flying these planes would have been beyond the "hijackers"
capabilities,
that it would have been virtually impossible for cell phone calls to
have been
placed during those flights, and that even the Saudi Arabian Embassy
has long
confirmed that several of the accused "hijackers" did not die on 9/11.
"It does not take rocket science to infer that, if these guys were
killed in
the crash of these aircraft, then they cannot be alive and well and
living in
Saudi Arabia," he remarked, "yet the FBI has not bothered to revise its
list
of suspects." Other studies available on the society's web site at
www.st911.org indicate that the passenger manifests for the four
flights did
not include the names of the hijackers nor were autopsies conducted on
them.
"A growing body of evidence supports the inference that these 19 men
were
patsies for forces within the United States government," Fetzer
concluded. "This trial appears to be yet one more illustration of Karl
Rove's
policy of 'creating our own reality' to serve the political goals of the
administration, even when it comes at the cost of the lives and the
security
of the American people. The idea that Bush is 'the security president'
is just
a cruel joke!"

Charlie Sheen: 'Challenge Me on the Facts'
Actor's first response since media
firestorm over 9/11 comments
Paul Joseph Watson & Alex Jones/Prison Planet.com | March 24 2006
Charlie Sheen has responded publicly for the first time since the media
firestorm over his comments by challenging his detractors to debate him
on the evidence of 9/11 and not issues relating to his personal life.
"I am an American citizen that loves my country and as a citizen with
my passion for this great country I demand that I be challenged on the
facts not on immature behavior from twenty years ago," said Sheen.
"If they continue to attack me personally it only gives credence to our
side of the argument."
Sheen elaborated on how developments during the course of the week had
unfolded and his reaction to them.
"All I can say is wow! Wow! this has been some kind of week I can tell
you."
Sheen tipped his hat to A.J. Hammer and CNN's Showbiz Tonight for
having the guts to cover the story and give 9/11 skeptics a balanced
platform on which to discuss the issues. He called the CNN poll showing
around 82% support his stance on 9/11 an "inspiration" and "staggering"
but Sheen also outlined the fact that he was not entirely surprised by
the outcome. Sheen said he was encouraged by the support shown on blogs
and message boards across the Internet.
The poll directly contradicts a line of attack used on a Hannity and
Colmes piece Thursday night which claimed that Sheen's views didn't
reflect the mainstream of America. If we are to treat an 82% majority
as the mainstream then that accusation is completely fraudulent.
Sheen addressed the attack pieces generated from his comments.
"The majority of them, in fact 90% of them, were attacking me
personally, were attacking my credibility, were attacking my
observational or talents of insight or observance and what they did not
attack is the specific points that you and I raised, the points that
generate the most controversy about the events," Sheen told the Alex
Jones Show.
"For anyone to have any kind of opinion on something that warrants an
opinion I guess you have to be squeaky clean."
Sheen made the point that the hit pieces singled out his quotes
relating to his first reaction to 9/11, and in particular the
suspicious collapse of the buildings, but deliberately avoided the
hardcore evidence he later presented, making him appear uninformed when
in fact he had documented why he had serious doubts about the official
story.
"I was vilified for expressing my feelings about what I saw and I was
demonized for expressing my gut reaction to what I saw."
Even so, both Dan Rather and Peter Jennings' gut instincts were that
the collapse of the buildings looked like controlled demolition so
Sheen is hardly on a skinny branch in simply stating what common sense
told him at the time.
"When they pigeon-hole me into the tin foil hat wearing conspiracy
knuckle-head brigade they don't mention those quotes by Peter Jennings
and Dan Rather," said Sheen.
Sheen responded to the claims made by National Geographic producer
Nicole Rittenmeyer aired by CNN on Wednesday night. Rittenmeyer
insinuated that her conclusions on 9/11 were credible simply due to the
fact that the series she produced had high viewing figures.
"This woman based all of her credibility on the ratings that the show
received and I find that ludicrous because what that speaks to is
people's interest. Whether you believe the official story or you're
curious about an alternate viewpoint so she kind of shot herself in the
foot talking about 'this is the base of my credibility', 'this is why
I'm right, because a lot of people watched it', you know I could say
the same thing about the reaction to my comments this week....but I'm
not saying that I'm just here to remind people that the only
credibility that I need is what I have and that is as an upstanding
taxpaying American citizen who loves his country and who refuses to
stand by as this level of insanity is blanketed over obvious truths."
Sheen reiterated his main focus as being on what caused Building 7,
which wasn't hit by a plane, to become only the third steel building in
history to collapse from fire damage (the other two being the twin
towers). Photographs taken prior to the building's collapse show minor
fires before it falls in a textbook demolition fashion.
"If there's a problem with Building 7 then there's a problem with the
whole damn thing and guess what? There's a serious problem with
Building 7," said Sheen.
Sheen demanded that Larry Silverstein, the owner of the WTC complex,
explain what he meant when he told a September 2002 PBS documentary
'America Rebuilds' that the decision was made to "pull" the building,
which is a demolition term for deliberate implosion.
"When someone makes a statement like that I think it warrants a follow
up response," said Sheen.
"In fact you know what I'll come right out and say that I'm personally
requesting a direct answer from Mr. Silverstein about what he
meant....give him my number tell him to call me I'm just curious. Tell
him to call CNN tell him to call somebody because you cannot make a
statement like that and not follow it up, and not back it up and not
explain it."
"Anyone that cannot view this as a controlled demolition, I would have
to say that their chair was not facing the television. Anyone that can
look at this and say 'yes, that is a random event caused by fire'
really needs psychiatric evaluation," said Sheen.
Sheen challenged the mainstream media to run a poll on Building 7
asking if viewers believe from video evidence that the building was
brought down by means of controlled implosion.
Sheen again underscored his challenge to his detractors to debate him
on the evidence and not idle gossip about his private life and his
family.
"I ask that they look at the evidence and they debate myself, yourself,
people that support us on those specific issues. Not about me
personally, not about what they think about me personally not about
what they think they know about me personally, just about the facts. I
issue that challenge."
Sheen expressed his excitement at the response that his stance received
and hinted that this was only the beginning of the journey.
"It feels like you and I have started the revolution and God bless
America," said Sheen in closing.

Subject: Urgent: One week left to STOP the fire sale of our National
Forests!
STOP BUSH'S PLAN TO SELL OFF OUR NATIONAL FORESTS
Paul Richards, Democratic candidate for Senate in Montana and
courageous lifelong advocate for the environment, is leading the fight
to stop the reckless decimation of our national forests. Please read
Paul's personal message to you below, and join him in being a champion
for our forest heritage by submitting this action page.
ACTION PAGE: http://www.richards2006.us/petitions/pnum226.php
After six years of undermining protections for public lands and
forests, President Bush's FY 2007 budget proposes to sell more than a
quarter of a million acres of public lands. This is another example of
the Bush administration's loyalty to the logging, oil and gas
industries. According to the New York Times, the Department of
Interior's budget documents show that they plan to allow companies to
pump about billion in oil and natural gas without paying royalties.
A total of 304,370 acres of national forests across the country would
be up for auction under the President's proposal; including over 12,000
acres in Montana (my home state), 75,000 acres in California, 25,000
acres in Idaho, 21,000 acres in Colorado and 21,000 acres in Missouri,
17,000 in Wyoming and 15,000 in South Dakota. Many of the lands up for
sale provide important wildlife habitat, clean drinking water and air,
and a natural legacy for future generations.
ACTION PAGE: http://www.richards2006.us/petitions/pnum226.php
We only have until March 30 to get our comments into the National
Forest Service. Please join me in telling the Forest Service not to
sell off our public lands to environmentally hostile corporations and
condo developers!
Thank you,
Paul Richards
**********
BACKGROUND
The Administration claims that selling forests managed by the U. S.
Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is necessary to
generate million to "offset" payments to rural schools. The permanent
sale of these forestlands will only temporarily fund the program. This
land sale proposal comes only a month after Congress, in the face of
widespread, bi-partisan opposition, stripped Representative Pombo's
scheme to sell millions of acres of national forests and parks for
private development from the federal budget bill.
The Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination (SRS) Act of
2000 ended the perverse incentive of funding rural schools and county
roads from logging sales on national forests by guaranteeing funding to
counties based on historic levels of logging revenue. The bill is up
for reauthorization in September 2006. The Bush Administration wants
to sell national forests to fund the SRS program. This is an
irresponsible move. Our children's education should be paid for
responsibly with a dependable funding source - not by recklessly
pawning our national forest inheritance.
The President's proposal has generated a fury among lawmakers on both
sides of the aisle, but it's critical that the Forest Service and BLM
and Congress hear FROM every state.

Dear Forest Service,
I am writing you to oppose any sale of national forests or BLM land to
fund the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination (SRS)
Program. The proposed auction of more than a quarter of a million
acres of public forests around the country would do irreparable harm to
our national forest system. The lands, which would be lost forever
provide important wildlife habitat, clean drinking water and air, and a
natural legacy. As wealthiest nation in the world, we can afford to
preserve our public lands and pay for our children's education.
Education and our national forest heritage are investments for future
generations. It is irresponsible to ask us to choose between these
essential responsibilities of our government. This one-time sale of
valuable national forests would permanently harm the national forest
system and could only temporarily fund the Secure Rural Schools
program; it's not a solution to the problem of under-funded rural
education. Our children and rural communities deserve a dependable
source of income for education that does not rely on the reckless
pawning of public lands.
When Teddy Roosevelt and other Administrations during the last century
created the 193-million-acre National Forest System, they intended for
these lands to be preserved forever as a public trust and managed for
the good of all Americans. The proposed auction of hundreds of
thousands of acres without an equal or greater increase in protected
acreage is a direct assault on the idea of a dedicated National Forest
system.
Don't ask Americans which national forests you should sell; it's a
disservice for the Forest Service to even consider the idea. This
proposal is in direct opposition to your agency's mission and reason
for existence. Financial challenges always cause us to reassess our
priorities. Selling our natural forest heritage to pay for other
government programs is unacceptable.
Sincerely,
Your Name
Address

Subject: Depleted Uranium Negligence
A message to the citizens of the world and especially the politicians,
scientists and physicians involved in the debates about uranium weapons
from Dr. Doug Rokke, former Director, United States Army Depleted
Uranium project, former United States Army Gulf War 1 Depleted Uranium
assessment and recovery team health physicist, and confirmed DU
casualty. I ASK EVERYONE WHO RECEIVES THIS MESAGE TO DISTRIBUTE THIS
MESSAGE TO ALL CITIZENS AND GOVERNMENTS OF THE WORLD.
THANK YOU, dr. doug rokke
As the United States Department of Defense hoped for discussions and
debates to continue regarding the toxicity of uranium weapons it is
extremely important to understand that these same officials want these
debates to continue while they ignore and hope the general public does
not learn that United States Army regulations, specifically United
States Army Regulation 700-48, United States Army Technical Bulletin
9-1300-278, along with numerous orders already require thorough
environmental remediation of all contamination and that medical care is
provided to all casualties because as stated in the 1995 United States
Army Environmental Policy Institute report in response to the
congressional and U.S. Army leadership mandate to reduce uranium
weapons toxicity we found and stated that quote: "Ways to Reduce DU
Toxicity: No available technology can significantly change the inherent
chemical and radiological toxicity of DU. These are intrinsic
properties of uranium" end quote.
It is important to note that the actual medical care directives that we
wrote and United States Department of Defense enacted mandating medical
care for DU exposures required that the radio-bioassay - urine, feces,
and nasal swabs be completed within 24 hours of the initial exposure
not days, weeks, or years later as is happening if any tests are even
ever conducted. Today medical tests are only given to some selected
persons and not all exposed children, women, and men. THAT IS
ABSOLUTELY WRONG AND A CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY. On medical effects, to
many scientists and government officials only read or cite selected
peer reviewed literature, that excludes reality, while ignoring what
has actually been medically observed, diagnosed, and treated in those,
including myself, who are confirmed DU casualties.
I have asked United States Department of Defense officials; President
Clinton's; President Bush's, Prime Minister Blair's, Prime Minister
Howard's, United Nation's, Italian, Swedish, German, Japanese, and NATO
administration officials, and even Dr. Bryan Spratt's team at the
British Royal Society to ensure that already mandatory medical care is
provided to all Depleted Uranium casualties and that al environmental
contamination is cleaned up as already required but they ignore those
legal requirements and want the debate to continue to avoid all
liability. Ladies and gentleman the debate ended once they orders and
regulations were adopted and published. But today those who advocate
and use uranium weapons while ignoring mandatory medical care and
environmental remediation requirements place themselves all national
and international laws. SIMPLY THEY ARE NOT ACCOUNTABLE.

The following link takes you to the current DOD web site for medical
information on health effects of depleted uranium:
http://www.pdhealth.mil/downloads/DU_Clinicians_Guide_09172004.pdf
This sheet on depleted uranium is full of misinformation and omits all
references to the DU team reports, the DU project, and simply lies
about our actual adverse health effects from uranium weapons exposures.
Many of us who are enrolled in the VA DU MEDICAL PROGRAM HAVE SERIOUS
DU RELATED- DIAGNOSED MEDICAL PROBLEMS. However, we have been
abandoned.
VA physicians have only tested a few hundred individuals (Gulf War
Review volume 13, #1, page 12; http://www.va.gov/) out of thousands who
were supposed to receive testing and medical care as required by
numerous orders and regulations.
The October 1993 DOD DU medical care directive mandated testing within
24 hours of initial exposure using the radio-bioassay not weeks,
months, or years later as done now if done at all. Once this test is
done an extrapolation from measured to actual dose must be done too but
that has been ignored.
I recommend that everyone read- study the Pentagon's own 2002 staff
briefing on adverse health effects of uranium exposures. If you have
questions just ask me.
http://www.traprockpeace.org/du_dtic_wakayama_Aug2002.html
DOD, DA, USAF, USN, USMC, USCG, VA, MOD (British), CND (Canadian), AND
(Australian) and NATO officials have for years continued with delayed
and denied care in order to maintain the cover up of the always known
serious adverse health and environmental effects and to sustain uranium
weapons use while avoiding all liability as specified in the March 1991
Los Alamos memorandum written by LTC Mike Ziehmn
(http://www.traprockpeace.org/twomemos.html). The March 1991 memo
written by LTC Greg Lyle was also very clear in citing serious health
risks. I am the Army officer who received these two directives. LTC
Lyle is correct. However I refused and still refuse to comply with LTC
Ziehmn directive in
order to sustain uranium weapons use. As the former director of the
U.S. Army Depleted Uranium Project, the U.S. Army health physicist who
cleaned up the mess following Gulf War 1, who recommended the initial
medical care, and who is a confirmed DU casualty I am fed up with the
continued lies and refusals by our leaders to comply with all known
provisions of U.S. Army Regulation 700-48,
LTG Peake's April 29, 2004 order mandating medical care for all exposed
individuals, and refusals to comply with all of the numerous medical
orders over the years.

simply: Depleted Uranium Situation Requires Action by President Bush
and Prime Minister Blair
Dr. Doug Rokke, Ph.D., former Director, U.S. Army Depleted Uranium
project
January 6, 2006
While U.S. and British military personnel continue using illegal uranium
munitions- America's and England's own "dirty bombs" U.S. Army, U.S.
Department of Energy, and U.S. Department of Defense officials continue
to deny that
there are any adverse health and environmental effects as a consequence
of the
manufacture, testing, and/or use of uranium munitions to avoid
liability for
the willful and illegal dispersal of a radioactive toxic material -
depleted
uranium. They arrogantly refuse to comply with their own regulations,
orders, and directives that require United States Department of
Defense officials to
provide prompt and effective medical care "all" exposed individuals
[Medical
Management of Unusual Depleted Uranium Casualties, DOD, Pentagon,
10/14/93, Medical Management of Army personnel Exposed to Depleted
Uranium (DU) Headquarters,
U.S. Army Medical Command 29 April 2004), and section 2-5 of AR 70-48].
They
also refuse to clean up dispersed radioactive Contamination as required
by Army Regulation- AR 700-48: "Management of Equipment Contaminated
With Depleted
Uranium or Radioactive Commodities" (Headquarters, Department Of The
Army,
Washington, D.C., September 2002) and U.S. Army Technical Bulletin- TB
9-1300-278: "Guidelines For Safe Response To Handling, Storage, And
Transportation
Accidents Involving Army Tank Munitions Or Armor Which Contain Depleted
Uranium"
(Headquarters, Department Of The Army, Washington, D.C., JULY 1996).
Specifically section 2-4 of United States Army Regulation-AR 700-48
dated
September 16, 2002 requires that:
(1) "Military personnel "identify, segregate, isolate, secure, and
label all
RCE" (radiologically contaminated equipment).
(2) "Procedures to minimize the spread of radioactivity will be
implemented
as soon as possible."
(3) "Radioactive material and waste will not be locally disposed of
through
burial, submersion, incineration, destruction in place, or abandonment"
and
(4) "All equipment, to include captured or combat RCE, will be surveyed,
packaged, retrograded, decontaminated and released IAW Technical
Bulletin
9-1300-278, DA PAM 700-48" (Note: Maximum exposure limits are specified
in Appendix F).
The previous and current use of uranium weapons, the release of
radioactive
components in destroyed U.S. and foreign military equipment, and
releases of
industrial, medical, research facility radioactive materials have
resulted in
unacceptable exposures. Therefore, decontamination must be completed as
required by U.S. Army Regulation 700-48 and should include releases of
all
radioactive materials resulting from military operations. The extent
of adverse health and environmental effects of uranium weapons
contamination is not limited to combat zones but includes facilities and
sites where uranium weapons were manufactured or tested including
Vieques; Puerto Rico; Colonie, New York; Concord, MA; Jefferson
Proving Grounds, Indiana; and
Schofield Barracks, Hawaii. Therefore medical care must be provided by
the
United States Department of Defense officials to all individuals
affected by the
manufacturing, testing, and/or use of uranium munitions. Thorough
environmental remediation also must be completed without further delay.
I am amazed that fourteen years after was asked to clean up the initial
DU mess from Gulf War 1
and over ten years since I finished the depleted uranium project that
United
States Department of Defense officials and others still attempt to
justify
uranium munitions use while ignoring mandatory requirements. I am
dismayed that Department of Defense and Department of Energy officials
and representatives
continue personal attacks aimed to silence or discredit those of us who
are
demanding that medical care be provided to all DU casualties and that
environmental remediation is completed in compliance with U.S. Army
Regulation 700-48. But beyond the ignored mandatory actions the willful
dispersal of tons
of solid radioactive and chemically toxic waste in the form of uranium
munitions is
illegal (http://www.traprockpeace.org/karen_parker_du_illegality.pdf)
and just
does not even pass the common sense test and according to the U.S.
Department
of Homeland Security, DHS, is a dirty bomb. DHS issued "dirty bomb"
response
guidelines, http://www.access.gpo.gov/su_docs/aces/fr-cont.html
, on January 3, 2006 for incidents within the United States but ignore
DOD
use of uranium weapons and existing DOD regulations. These guidelines
specifically state that: "Characteristics of RDD and IND Incidents: A
radiological incident is defined as an event or series of events,
deliberate or accidental,
leading to the release, or potential release, into the environment of
radioactive material in sufficient quantity to warrant consideration of
protective
actions. Use of an RDD or IND is an act of terror that produces a
radiological
incident." Thus the use of uranium munitions is "an act or terror" as
defined by DHS. Finally continued compliance with the infamous March
1991 Los Alamos
Memorandum that was issued to ensure continued use of uranium munitions
can not be justified.
In conclusion: the President of the United States- George W. Bush and
The Prime Minister of Great Britain-Tony Blair must acknowledge and
accept
responsibility for willful use of illegal uranium munitions- their own
"dirty bombs"- resulting in adverse health and environmental effects.
President Bush and Prime Minister Blair also should order:
1. medical care for all casualties,
2. thorough environmental remediation,
3. immediate cessation of retaliation against all of us who demand
compliance
with medical care and environmental remediation requirements,
4. and stop the already illegal the use (UN finding) of depleted
uranium munitions.

Subject: Groups Demand Water Rights, Cite Millions of Deaths

Groups Demand Water Rights, Cite Millions of Deaths
by Niko Kyriakou
CARACAS - The right to safe water must be enshrined in international
law and policed by the United Nations if millions of people are to be
spared death from want of water or from water-borne diseases, activists
told governments and business at international talks ending Wednesday.
A coalition of groups opposed to efforts to give private enterprise
control over water resources and distribution systems called on
governments attending the Fourth World Water Forum in Mexico City to
agree a formal declaration at the nascent UN Human Rights Council that
would stiffen their commitment to ensuring basic water rights.
The groups--including U.S.-based Bread for the World, the Coalition of
Mexican Organizations for the Right to Water (COMDA), and the Council
of Canadians--defined those rights as the ability to access sufficient
and affordable clean water in or near the home, school or workplace.
They blamed violations of those rights for a UN-reported annual toll of
three million deaths from diseases related to dirty or unsafe water.
The world body also reported that 2.6 billion people--about 40 percent
of the world's population--lack access to toilets or latrines.
Activists further pressed governments to establish an international
mechanism to monitor countries' efforts to guarantee the right to
water. Possibilities included a UN Special Rapporteur or advisor to the
UN Secretary General.
Such measures are necessary because ''billions of people are unable to
hold governments, corporations and international organizations
accountable when they deliberately neglect the poor, such as people
living in informal settlements, and when they violate the right of
water users to participate in decision making on how their services are
managed, as has been seen in many enforced privatizations of water
services,'' said Scott Leckie, executive director of the Geneva-based
Center on Housing Rights and Evictions, a coalition member.
The right to water already is enshrined in international covenants and
UN resolutions but the United States, Canada, and other influential
countries have shunned the documents, activists said, adding that in
recent years, rather than strengthen public provision of water,
numerous governments have favored efforts to privatize water systems.
That has proven controversial. Popular protest and government pressure
in Argentina, Uruguay, and Bolivia, have pushed out private owners of
water distribution facilities widely viewed as inhibiting public access
to water by charging too much for the resource.
Delegates at the weeklong talks in Mexico City got a demonstration of
the intensity of opposition to privatization when activists mobilized
massive street protests.
Several advocacy groups urged stepped up grassroots efforts to wrest
control over water.
''There is a silent holocaust occurring around the world caused by lack
of water and sanitation. People are dying because the international aid
community and national governments are not listening to the poor or
looking at the overwhelming evidence,'' said Barbara Frost, chief
executive of international charity WaterAid.
''Pressure must continue on donor and recipient governments, but we
also need to encourage bottom-up solutions. If service providers are
not held to account, the poor and the socially excluded will never
achieve their water and sanitation rights. The groundwork has been
laid. Citizens' action needs to become a movement,'' Frost added.
According to her organization, such a movement would prove essential in
achieving the UN Millennium Development Goal of halving, by 2015, the
number of people without sustainable access to safe drinking water and
basic sanitation.
WaterAid, in a report released at the conference, touted several
community projects it carried out with partners in Africa and Asia that
it said succeeded in increasing public access to clean water. Citizen
pressure in Kathmandu, Nepal, forced authorities there to reduce water
charges and to cut the connection tariff by 84 percent, for example.
As part of a WaterAid project in Kampala, Uganda, community members in
impoverished areas mapped rubbish dumps, water points, drainage
channels, and latrines in a bid to help the government there carry out
projects to improve water supply and sanitation.
The March 16-22 forum in Mexico City attracted some 11,000 participants
from more than 100 countries, said organizers at the World Water
Council, a France-based umbrella group for multinational water
companies and other businesses, universities, and non-governmental
organizations.

Here is an imprtant statement by a very courageous man, Hoo Ha!
Imagine that…..
Delta Force founder: Bush may have started World War III
RAW STORY
Published: Friday March 24, 2006
Print This | Email This
A founding member of the elite counter-terrorist unit, Delta Force,
suggested that President Bush's invasion of Iraq may have started World
War III, according to an interview set for Saturday's Los Angeles Daily
News, RAW STORY has learned.
Retired Command Sergeant Major Eric Haney's book "Inside Delta Force"
became the basis for the CBS drama "The Unit," where he now assumes
technical adviser and executive producer duties.
Excerpts from the forthcoming article written by David Kronke:
Q: What's your assessment of the war in Iraq?
A: Utter debacle. But it had to be from the very first. The reasons
were wrong. The reasons of this administration for taking this nation
to war were not what they stated. (Army Gen.) Tommy Franks was
brow-beaten and ... pursued warfare that he knew strategically was
wrong in the long term. That's why he retired immediately afterward.
His own staff could tell him what was going to happen afterward.
We have fomented civil war in Iraq. We have probably fomented
internecine war in the Muslim world between the Shias and the Sunnis,
and I think Bush may well have started the third world war, all for
their own personal policies.
Q: What do you make of the torture debate? Cheney ...
A: (Interrupting) That's Cheney's pursuit. The only reason anyone
tortures is because they like to do it. It's about vengeance, it's
about revenge, or it's about cover-up. You don't gain intelligence that
way. Everyone in the world knows that. It's worse than small-minded,
and look what it does….

FPF-fwd. from Irving Hall <notinkansas@citlink.net>

Everything you need to know about depleted uranium to counter military
recruiters and to convince remaining supporters of the Iraq War that
every day our troops remain in Iraq increases the chances that they
will come home sick, produce children with birth defects, and die
prematurely. Deadly uranium permeates the air, water, and soil.
Baghdad's Green Zone is as contaminated as any battlefield.
Depleted Uranium for Dummies
Irving Wesley Hall
Under the direction of Secretary of Defense Cheney, the 1991 Gulf
War began with a "shock and awe" bombing campaign that destroyed large
biological laboratories, chemical plants, and nuclear enrichment
facilities, most of them around Baghdad. Many sites were illegally
supplied by the Reagan-Bush administration, in which both Dick Cheney
and Donald Rumsfeld served, so the United States government knew their
locations.
Biological, chemical and nuclear weapons damage the bodies of soldiers
in distinct ways. The first employs deadly bacteria and viruses to
cause known illnesses. The second uses poisonous, or toxic, substances
to attack the body's chemistry. Nuclear weapons, such as depleted
uranium (D.U.), were unimaginable before World War II. They attack the
body with invisible radioactive energy that, as you will soon read,
produces a wider variety of symptoms that develop over a longer period
of time. Radioactive heavy metal particles embedded in the body are
both radioactive and toxic.
Biological, chemical and nuclear weapons can potentially "blow back."
Once they are released, they can kill and maim civilians as well as
enemy soldiers. Hence all three have been banned by international
treaties which the United States signed.
They also blow back on the army that uses them. The practical danger
to America's own troops prevented the widespread use of WMD's until the
atomic bombs in World War II and the chemical herbicide Agent Orange in
Vietnam. Hundreds of thousands of American troops suffered and died
because of the testing and use of these weapons.
When George Bush Sr., Cheney, and Rumsfeld supplied brutal tyrant
Saddam Hussein with these substances in the 1980's they showed
disregard for the lives of folks living in the Middle East. When they
ordered the 1991 aerial destruction of stockpiles of these weapons,
they showed a deadly contempt for their own citizen-soldiers.
Those early bombing attacks sent clouds of miniscule toxic and
radioactive particles into the air that floated over the future
battlefield and bivouac camps where hundreds of thousands of American
troops were awaiting the invasion.
Bush Sr.'s February 1991 ground war was even shorter than Bush Jr.'s
2003 "Mission Accomplished" operation. The former lasted only 100
hours. Afterwards 105 sites stockpiling dangerous chemical and
biological weapons were destroyed, contaminating everything around
them. In March, a huge weapons storage dump in Khamisiyah was blown up
by American engineers, sending a second huge toxic cloud over troops
preparing to depart for home.
HIDE THE UNITED STATES ORIGIN OF THAT WEAPONRY
Sgt. Dan Topolski, of the 87th Engineer Battalion, participated in the
Khamisiyah demolition. He speculates in the excellent DVD Beyond
Treason that the hasty action, without prior inspection, inventory, or
proper safety precautions, was political. Topolski suggests this stupid
order was motivated by Bush Sr.'s desperate desire to hide the United
States origin of that weaponry from United Nations inspectors and the
American people.
Dr. Doug Rokke states, "General Powell, General Schwarzkopf, General
Horner, and Secretary Cheney. . .made a conscience decision. . . to
blow up Iraq¹s chemical-biological stockpiles in place. [They] also
decided to blow up their nuclear reactors in place. This is all
confirmed in Schwarzkopf¹s autobiography. . .We warned everybody that
these exposures downwind exposures were going to have a disastrous
effect on U.S. military personnel, on coalition personnel, on Iraqi
personnel, and on the civilians and non-combatants in the region. That
warning was ignored."
Years later, ailing vets would force the government to admit that CIA
satellites had tracked the movement of the mass of Khamisiyah
contaminants in real time. The size and path of the cloud explains the
otherwise inexplicable incidences of Gulf War illness among Navy
personnel and pilots on battleships in the Persian Gulf downwind.
During the early aerial bombardment and later tank war,
President Bush and Secretary Cheney authorized the use of massive
amounts of depleted uranium armaments for the first time in the history
of warfare. This material is produced only by the United States and
had been used experimentally in Vietnam and the 1973 Israel-Arab War.
Internal Department of Defense reports had warned since 1943 about its
use, and accurately predicted its poison gas effects on our troops.
THE MOST TOXIC BATTLE IN WESTERN MILITARY HISTORY
In his article, "The Gulf War Was The Most Toxic Battle In Western
Military History," Dr. Malcolm Hooper, emeritus professor of medicinal
chemistry at the University of Sunderland UK, attributes the symptoms
of mysterious "Gulf War Illness" among American and coalition troops to
a combination of toxic substances to which they were subjected.
These included, in addition to weapons of mass destruction,
experimental vaccines, anti-nerve gas tablets, aerosolized pesticides,
and smoke from hundreds of burning oil wells. Some of the vaccines
were not approved by the FDA and had never been used on human subjects.
No one had studied the interactive effects of as many as seventeen
vaccines administered at the same time. Many soldiers became violently
ill immediately after receiving the battery of shots and others
developed a variety of symptoms later. Strangely, the normally
bureaucratic military kept no records of who received what shots and
when.
However, most researchers cite radioactive poisoning from depleted
uranium shells as the deadliest element in the Gulf War Illness
"cocktail." In the 1991 war the Pentagon fired more than 340 tons of
D.U. projectiles at targets in Iraq and Kuwait. More than a half
million Gulf era veterans are on medical disability.
At last count, more than 1,000 tons have been used in Afghanistan and
more than 3,000 tons in Iraq. Significantly, most Gulf War tours of
duty were short. Three quarters of today's troops in Iraq and
Afghanistan have served multiple tours: 26% are on their first tour of
duty, 45% are on their second tour, and 29% are in Iraq for a third
time or more. Some are now being ordered to a fourth tour of duty.
Simple math suggests that depleted uranium may eventually prove a
hundred times more deadly to our forces than all the Iraqi resistance
fighters' improvised explosive devices (I.E.D.s) and rocket propelled
grenades (R.P.G.'s) combined.
Leonard Dietz is a retired physicist from the Knolls Atomic Power
Laboratory in upstate New York. Dietz, who pioneered the technology to
measure uranium isotopes, is quoted as saying, "Anybody, civilian or
soldier, who breathes these particles has a permanent dose, and it's
not going to decrease very much over time. . .In the long run. .
.veterans exposed to ceramic uranium oxide have a major problem."
THE DOUBLE WHAMMY COCKTAIL
A D.U shell bursts into flames as soon as it leaves the delivery
device. When it hits a target, as much as 70 percent burns on impact
at a high temperature, releasing into the air billions of invisible
radioactive particles. This infinitesimally fine dust of aerosolized
uranium oxide consists of metallic micro-particles that are smaller
than viruses or bacteria.
All of our bodies contain tiny amounts of natural uranium because it is
found in water and in the food supply. But natural uranium is quickly
and harmlessly excreted by the body. However the velocity and heat of
the impact of D.U munitions convert the poisonous uranium oxide from a
heavy metal into a ceramic heavy metal that makes it insoluble and
therefore difficult to excrete.
Where does depleted uranium come from? It doesn't occur in nature.
Natural uranium has to be ³processed' to remove less than one half of
one percent of a special kind of uranium called U-235. Bomb makers use
U-235 to make thermonuclear bombs that can explode with a force
equivalent to 100 million tons of TNT.
U-235 is also used to make fuel rods for nuclear reactors. Used fuel
rods are extremely radioactive for many years and will kill any person
near them in ten seconds. No one on earth knows what to do with used
fuel rods. Tons of deadly, radioactive used fuel rods have been in
temporary storage for more than 50 years.
D.U. is "depleted" only in the sense that more highly radioactive forms
of uranium have been partially removed. What's left, depleted uranium,
mainly U-238, is still highly radioactive and dangerous. It is used to
make military bullets, shells, land mines, armor plating, missiles and
bombs.
As we are all taught in elementary school, radioactivity is dangerous
because it causes cancer. That's why your dentist covers your body
with a lead apron before your X-ray.
ACCORDING TO A JUNE 2002 NATIONAL RADIOLOGICAL PROTECTION BOARD REPORT
"All uranium, whether natural, depleted or enriched, is a
toxic radiological element. Each differs from the other in atomic
structure by less than one percent. D.U. emits three types of ionizing
radiation: alpha and beta particles and photons. Alpha particles are
blocked by objects as light as a sheet of paper and humans exposed to
them are naturally protected by their skin. Beta particles (high speed
electrons) can penetrate human skin to a depth of one centimeter while
photons (x-rays and gamma rays) are more penetrating and can pass
completely through a human body."
Although blocked by the skin, alpha radiation can be inhaled, ingested,
and absorbed into the blood stream through scratches and wounds. It is
highly dangerous internally. In addition to being physically
radioactive it is also chemically toxic. This explains the "double
whammy" effect. Soldiers who are exposed can become immediately ill
from the toxicity, recover, and then suffer severe additional symptoms
from the radioactivity years or decades later.
A study in the April 2003 New Scientist magazine suggested that D.U.
toxicity combines synergistically with its radioactivity to produce
more serious effects.
Dr Keith Baverstock, a senior radiation advisor to the World Health
Organization, is quoted as saying, ³The radiation and the chemical
toxicity of D.U. could also act together to create a Œcocktail effect¹
that further increases the risk of cancer.²
HENCE GULF WAR VETS WERE SERVED A COCKTAIL INSIDE A COCKTAIL.
More troubling still is another study of the materials
inside the D.U. weapons used in Iraq and Afghanistan. That report
found that in addition to U-238, today's munitions contain plutonium,
neptunium, and the highly radioactive uranium isotope U-236. An isotope
is one of several slightly different atomic structures within the same
element, in this case uranium. According to a 1991 study by the UK
Atomic Energy Authority, these elements are 100,000 times more
dangerous than the U-238 in so-called depleted uranium.
U-236 is another man-made metal. It is created inside operating
nuclear reactors and is intensely radioactive. U-236 has been found in
the urine of sick Afghan and Iraqi villagers and on the ground next to
bomb craters.
Geologist Leuren Moret is an independent scientist and internationally
recognized expert on radiation, D.U., and public health. She estimates
that "one millionth of a gram [of depleted uranium] accumulating in a
person's body would be fatal. There are no known methods of
treatment."
QUIET AND INVISIBLE GUESTS THAT NEVER LEAVE
WHY THE WIDE VARIETY OF ILLNESSES?
Depleted uranium contamination causes virtually every known illness
from acute skin rashes, severe headaches, muscle and joint pain, and
general fatigue, to major birth defects, infection, depression,
cardiovascular disease, brain tumors, and every other type of cancer.
Uranium replaces calcium, destroying teeth and bones.
D.U. is causing permanent disability and death for hundreds of
thousands of American veterans who served in the Middle East.
For more information, every military family should watch Beyond
Treason, and every high school should play the DVD for students
subjected to military recruitment. According to experts interviewed on
the DVD, some soldiers return home contaminated with billions of
radioactive ceramic particles.
Leuren Moret states, "In a cubic meter of air there are one billion
particles a tenth of a micron in diameter. An ordinary man breathes
twenty-eight cubic meters of air a day and for that reason our soldiers
internally contaminated to depleted uranium have billions of particles
of depleted uranium distributed throughout their bodies."
Let's follow the journey of these microscopic invaders after they are
inhaled. They attach first to the trachea and stick to lung tissue.
The heavy metal ceramic specks are practically insoluble; so they so
don¹t easily dissolve into the bloodstream. They cling to the
respiratory system for years, even decades, and irradiate the
surrounding tissues, damaging neighboring organs. Gradually they pass
through the lung-blood membranes into the bloodstream and lymphatic
system, causing illnesses and damage to the entire body. Radiation
mutates cells, causing cancers, leukemia, lymphoma, congenital
disorders, and birth defects.
Here's what happens when these microscopic radioactive
particles are ingested through the mouth or penetrate the body through
buried D.U. shrapnel or open wounds. They enter the bloodstream and
circulate freely throughout the body, emitting radiation as they
travel. Some concentrate in the lymph nodes and cause lymphatic
cancer. D.U. also damages the immune system by hastening the death of
white blood cells, and impairing their ability to attack bacteria.
Other ceramic particles cause "low-level" cell irradiation
in the bone marrow and the stem cells that the body creates there.
Stem cells are the progenitors of all the other cells that the body
manufactures in order to renew itself.
Dr. Asaf Durakovic, formerly in charge of Nuclear Medicine
Service at the Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center, was
ailing veteran Terry Riordan's doctor whom we cite in "Dick and
Hillary's Dirty Little Secret," on www.notinkansas.us
<http://www.notinkansas.us> . Dr. Durakovic is now the Director of the
Uranium Medical Research Institute.
"STEM CELLS ARE VERY VULNERABLE," HE SAYS. "BOMBARDED WITH ALPHA
PARTICLES, THEIR DNA WILL FALL APART, POTENTIALLY AFFECTING EVERY
ORGAN."
The process is similar to building a house with defective materials or
cooking a meal with spoiled ingredients. If malfunctioning stem cells
become new liver cells, then the liver will malfunction. Hence
defective stem cells cause many veterans to suffer kidney failure,
brain damage, and poorly functioning joints and muscles.
D.U. may transform semen into a caustic alkali, which explains Terry
and Susan Reardon's experiences during lovemaking that we described on
March 8. This explains the severe urinary problems among veterans just
back from Iraq to be described in the April 4 installment of We're Not
in Kansas Anymore. Dr. Malcolm Hooper, at the University of Sunderland,
is familiar with 4,000 such cases among UK Gulf War veterans.
THE TROJAN HORSE OF NUCLEAR WAR
Radiation expert Leuren Moret calls D.U, "The Trojan Horse
of nuclear war. . .There's no way to clean it up, and no way to turn it
off because it continues to decay into other radioactive isotopes. . ."
As far back as 1979, Leonard Dietz, the retired New York State
physicist, discovered that aerosolized D.U. particles less than a
millionth of a meter in diameter can travel long distances. Some months
ago, Leuren Moret told Dr. Elias Akleh, an Arab-American writer, ³D.U.
dust is now everywhere. A minimum of 500 600 tons now litter
Afghanistan, and several times that amount are spread across Iraq." As
you will read on April 4, a serious level of depleted uranium particles
reached the UK nine hours after the United States 2003 "Shock and Awe"
bombing of Iraq. It's likely that I am inhaling them as I peck on my
keyboard, and so are you as you read my words.
Compare the latest tonnage to the 340 tons used in the Gulf War. Dr.
Doug Rokke, the health physicist for the US Army, who oversaw the
partial clean up of depleted uranium bomb fragments in Kuwait in 1991,
reminded Alliance of Atomic Veterans writer Vincent L. Guarisco that,
in Bush and Cheney's new war, the massive radioactive arsenal has been
used mainly in Iraqi urban centers and civilian neighborhoods, rather
than in desert battlefields.
Over time, the health of all foreign troops will be affected. The
health effects on the natives of Iraq and Afghanistan will be
catastrophic. Based on the increase in cancer rates in the aftermath
of the Chernobyl and Three Mile Island nuclear meltdowns, many
Iranians, Saudis, Syrians, Lebanese, Palestinians, and Israelis will
die prematurely thanks to our government's unprovoked nuclear attack on
Iraq.
As you will read on April 18, because of their more rapid cellular
development, children are the most vulnerable to depleted uranium
poisoning.
RADIOACTIVE SHOWERS AND CHOW
In Iraq¹s arid climate, sandstorms blow tiny particles of D.U. away
from the blast epicenter, impacting the surrounding environment without
geographical limitations. It enters the soil, polluting the water
table, the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, and infecting the food chain.
Fertile, D.U.-contaminated grasslands west of Basra in southern Iraq
produce vegetables and grains for livestock that are consumed by
American troops as well as Iraqis.
The New York State National Guard Rainbow Division just
returned from six months stationed in Camp Forward Danger on the Tigris
River near Tikrit, north of Baghdad. Saddam Hussein's rebellious
hometown was the site of major combat using D.U. munitions during the
initial invasion and for months afterward.
An official June 2005 United States Central Command communiqué reported
that soldiers of the 62nd Quartermaster Company from Fort Hood, Texas
were supplying Camp Forward Danger's water from the Tigris River. The
engineers ran it through a reverse osmosis water purification unit that
dissolved the solids. The water is purified again and chlorinated.
However it seems that it is not tested for radioactivity.
I have attempted to verify the degree of radioactive poisoning to which
the New York National Guard members were subjected. I had contacts
with officers at the base before this series went on line. However,
Pentagon public relations officers, Capt. Bill Roberts and 1st Lt.
Tawny M. Dotson, have ignored several requests for email access to Camp
Forward Danger. I've appealed to Maj. Richard J. McNorton, the
CENTCOM's special officer in charge of helping bloggers obtain accurate
information, but he hasn't responded either. We'll keep you posted on
We're Not in Kansas Anymore.
Even if the water were monitored, there is no way, outside a
sophisticated nuclear laboratory, to remove carcinogenic depleted
uranium from water, air or food‹as you can understand from the
discussion above.
According to a recent interview with Dr, Doug Rokke, formerly the
military's top expert in this field, the only way to monitor
bacteria-sized D.U. particles would be to send samples to a specialized
laboratory.
Depleted uranium is nasty stuff. Think about this as you read news
reports of the current massive aerial bombing campaign the U.S. is
waging around Samarra, north of Baghdad. You might have thought
"insurgents" would be the only casualties before you read "Depleted
Uranium For Dummies." But you're not a "dummie" anymore.
THE TIGRIS: A RIVER OF DEATH
Our men and women of the New York State National Guard have just spent
six months taking radioactive showers and washing small open wounds in
a depleted uranium broth. They've eaten over 500 meals with food,
plates and silverware washed with hot water, in two senses of the word.
Thanks to George Bush Sr. and Dick Cheney's decision to use depleted
uranium munitions in 1991, the Tigris river, the Bible's Edenic river
of life, has become a modern river of death. And our brothers and
sisters are drinking the forbidden water, without knowing it--despite
informational videotapes produced for them by Major Doug Rokke and his
team. The tapes, pamphlets, and bulletin board posters are mandatory,
but how many of our men and woman serving in radioactive areas have
seen them?
Our (all) troops inhale depleted uranium with every single
breath. Radioactive particles the size of a virus cannot be filtered
outside a laboratory. Even the 800,000 gas masks provided Gulf War
troops were useless because the charcoal filters became inert within
days. The only protection is airtight MOPP suits connected to oxygen
tanks.
No place in Iraq is free from radioactive contamination, including
today's supposedly "safe" Green Zone in Baghdad where top military
officers, civilian occupation authorities, international journalists,
and the Iraqi government leaders live and work.
Saddam Hussein's former palace is now the middle of the Green Zone. It
was bombarded with D.U. munitions before and during the invasion. So
has greater Baghdad ever since. So Green Zone residents inhale and
ingest depleted uranium every day. Perhaps that's why, during
President Bush's Thanksgiving visit, he was served a plastic turkey.
UPI reported last December that Wilder Gutierrez Rubio, 38,
had died a few hours after returning home to Lima, Peru. He had been
diagnosed by doctors at Ibn Sina Hospital in Baghdad with severe
leukemia, which they attributed to depleted uranium exposure, even
though he had served in Baghdad only a short time. Gutierrez was part
of a contingent of Latin Americans recruited by a U.S. company to
provide security for Baghdad's Green Zone.
Tragically, our celebrated comrades of the New York State National
Guard Rainbow Division are home from Camp Forward Danger, but not home
free from danger.
After Dick Cheney sprayed the entire Army, Army Reserves, and National
Guard with God-zillions of time-release miniscule radioactive ceramic
buckshot, why should he feel guilty about shooting a few dozen ordinary
pellets into one Texas lawyer?
Is Poisoning Your Entire Army an Impeachable Offence?
A majority of Americans, recently polled agree that Bush and Cheney
should be impeached if they lied to Congress and the American people in
order to launch this war. According to the latest poll, a plurality of
Americans say that it's time for impeachment, period.
THE TROOPS WANT TO COME HOME.
Last month's Zogby poll of troops on the ground in Iraq reported that
29% of the respondents, serving in various branches of the armed
forces, said the U.S. should leave Iraq ³immediately.² And 89% of the
reserves and 82% of those in the National Guard said the U.S. should
leave Iraq within a year.
And most of these folks have yet to read about the depleted uranium
lodged throughout their bodies.
The 2006 election is nine months away. Are you registered to vote?
Have you called your congressperson, senator, or local opposition
candidates?
We did--earlier this month. We emailed all five candidates for New
York's 24th Congressional district. We also reached both Democratic
contenders for New York's 20th district.
WE URGED THAT THEY CHECK OUT THIS WEBSITE AND OUR SOURCES.
Four out of seven responded promptly--with thanks. These were Michael
A. Arcuri, Kirsten Gillibrand, Leon Koziol, and Les Roberts, all
Democrats. Like the overwhelming majority of citizens, they were not
fully informed about depleted uranium. Their positions on eliminating
D.U. and promptly withdrawing the troops will be announced on
www.notinkansas.us <http://www.notinkansas.us> .
Now that you understand D.U., you can oppose the position of many
"Bush-lite" Democrats who want to withdraw some troops but to increase
the tonnage of D.U. bombs dropped in civilian areas. Only ignorance
prevents them from realizing this policy will kill more American troops
than Iraqi resistance fighters. Imagine the long-range effects on 26
million Iraqi civilians. Do you want that on your conscience?
Contact your representative about We're Not in Kansas Anymore. Let us
know their responses. Call your current representative in Washington,
D.C. at 1-800-426-8073. It's toll free. Warn them about the
devastating effects on our troops, and the residents of the Middle East
if Bush and Cheney launch a nuclear attack on Iran's nuclear
facilities. Such an action is a death warrant for most of our loved
ones in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Please don¹t just sit in your chair while a million men and women--who
volunteered to defend your freedoms--are exposed to a triple whammy of
deadly radiation and condemned to a slow and agonizing death like a
half million Gulf War vets before them.

Iraq
Unbreakable
The carnage doesn't change
the truth: the US lost before it invaded Iraq
By Hana Al-Bayaty
March 24, 2006
/weekly.ahram.org.eg
Three years have passed and the world continues diving into ever more
obscurantist times. On 15 February 2003, collective humanity felt it so
deeply that it used every available tool to get organised against
power, taking to streets simultaneously across the planet to oppose
this terrifying war. Three years have passed and as we sensed
pre-emptively, it's a massacre; a bloodshed of unspeakable brutality.
Three years have passed and Iraq has been destroyed as a state and as a
nation. Its natural resources have been plundered, its civilisational
and cultural heritage looted, its religious heritage desecrated, its
people raped, tortured, drilled, murdered and even melted. Cynicism
nowadays refuses the call for an immediate and complete withdrawal of
occupation forces for fear of civil war.
Since the very first day of this occupation we have witnessed the
development of a two-sided power system. One side is the occupation and
its stooges; the second is the Iraqi people and its various forms of
resistance. Even if some part of the population might have been
inclined to welcome an occupier, temporarily, the methods used by the
occupation, along with its ultimate end, are contrary to the interest
of the Iraqi people, therefore challenged and blunted by an
ever-increasing number.
The US strategy in Iraq has been to destroy its Arab-Muslim identity
and partition it into a minimum of three weak and conflicting
protectorates, along sectarian lines, in order to ensure American
political, economic and military domination. The invasion of Iraq was
and remains an illegal war, a crime of aggression. Iraq and Iraqis are
protected by international law -- by the founding Charter of the United
Nations as well as the Geneva Conventions and the Hague IV Convention.
By recognising UN Security Council Resolution 1533, in which the US is
described as an occupying power, the US bound itself to inalienable
obligations, stated under international humanitarian law. These
treaties stipulate that an occupying power cannot change the social,
economic or political make-up of the occupied country and cannot link
this country to any agreements or treaties that exceed the occupation.
This includes the constitution, elections and all contracts that have
been created.
The US-led political process was and remains illegal. However the Bush
administration will attempt to disguise it -- "liberation",
"nation-building" or "transitional period" -- this political process is
illegal and illegitimate. The "liberation" of Iraq did not result in
any kind of sovereignty for the Iraqi people. All primary state powers
remain in the hands of the occupation. To achieve their plan the US
fomented sectarian and civilian strife among the Iraqi people by
promoting secondary identities such as Sunni and Shia, in grand
tradition of the divide to rule strategy of empire. It supported,
financed, trained and recruited sectarian militias, death squads and
all sorts of mercenaries. It has resorted to outrageous
disproportionate use of force against entire towns and cities,
resulting in the destruction of the holy city of Najaf, martyred
Falluja, Tel Afar, Al-Qaim, Haditha, Baquba, Samarra, Ramadi, among
others and the death of tens of thousands of Iraqis, and detention of
tens of thousands more. Occupation is the highest form of dictatorship
as it intends to dictate the laws of a country by military means.
While it is true that this policy creates local corrupted individuals,
feudalisms and warlords who profit from the occupation, the majority of
society itself -- especially the marginalised and impoverished educated
middle classes, the working classes, which lost the benefit of state
services, and the youth, which suffers from unemployment and the
absence of civil liberties -- reject US policy in Iraq. This will be
the source of the never-ending social struggle against the occupation
and eventually its defeat, and the defeat of its policies.
Since the very day the occupation forces came to Iraq and the Iraqi
state collapsed, there has been an uprising by all Iraqi movements and
organisations; including those defending women, or unemployed youth,
human rights organisations, trade unions, professional syndicates,
agencies defending environmental issues and the rights of prisoners,
and all other cultural and political organisations, side-by-side with
provincial and tribal communities and peaceful and armed resistance
groups. A national movement, which opposes occupation and sectarianism,
has developed. It took various forms, from civil to armed resistance.
One does not contradict the other but rather supports the other in its
own choice of struggle.
The methods used by different Iraqi forces to oppose this occupation
depend on their specific situation. They form a second power and live
in pain and solidarity with one another. The civil and armed resistance
recognise the necessity, legality and legitimacy of each other. They
have a common struggle to defeat the occupation, its stooges and its
criminal plans. Like the civil resistance, the Iraqi armed resistance
defends the independence, sovereignty over national resources,
territory and future of Iraq. Unlike Germany and Japan, Iraq has a
sovereign army that did not surrender, sign a treaty or capitulate to
the aggressor. In rising up against occupation, in its struggle to
warrant Iraqis their sovereignty, the Iraqi resistance is the legal
continuity of the Iraqi state.
Throughout the history of the Iraqi patriotic movement, since the 1920s
until now, it has been clear that the main criterion for true
patriotism was to confront the "hegemony" of foreign powers in Iraq.
Iraq's nationalisation of its oil wealth, and its success in investing
oil revenues in economic development and infrastructure projects, has
demonstrated Iraq's ability to build its own cadre for the proper
administration of oil industries, making the ultimate end of such
industry serving the interests of Iraq. Even when expertise, capital or
any sort of foreign assistance was required, Iraq could get it through
contracting and cooperation. It has always insisted there is no
justification for rendering ownership of its oil fields to any other
party but the state.
For the past 4,000 years, Iraq has been a social and economic entity.
This comes from geopolitical considerations. Iraq is a basin in which
several civilisations and peoples settled, the latest being the
Arab-Muslim civilisation. The Iraqi people are the expression of the
heritage of these civilisations and peoples, regardless of their
religion or ethnicity. Never in history could two states cohabitate in
this area. Always one state had to surrender to the other, because it
is the geopolitical interest of these peoples to organise together in a
common state of its citizens. There have been many unsuccessful
imperial attempts to divide the Iraqis. It would take more than a
century to destroy the Arab-Muslim identity of Iraq by force.
The present uprising of Iraqis is not merely a part of the wider
struggle against savage globalisation and "free" capital; it is its
forefront battle. It is because the Iraqis refuse to surrender their
sovereignty to multinational corporations that Iraq is being destroyed
so blatantly. We should all be humbled by the losses this people has
been prepared to endure for our sake and demand the complete,
unconditional and immediate withdrawal of occupation forces from Iraqi
soil, along with the cancellation of any law, treaty, agreement or
contract passed under occupation and the fair payment of reparations
and compensations for the human and material loses the Iraqis have
suffered.
The US plan has already failed -- politically, morally, economically
and even militarily. There are two types of strategy in warfare: either
you have the ability to destroy your enemy or you have to destroy his
will to fight. The US has failed in the first attempt, and can only
completely eradicate the Iraqi population to succeed in the second. The
Iraqi people's right to resist is the basis of, and is protected by,
the Charter of the United Nations. This people's struggle will be our
future pride if it is not already. Supporting the Iraqis in their
legitimate and heroic fight does not mean supporting the return of any
previous order. Iraqis have proven their determination in defining
their fate and future. They have taken it into their hands and will not
and cannot accept any kind of future tyranny.
The Iraqi youth will refuse any occupation, foreign interference, one
party state, despotism, or authoritarian rule. It holds the heritage,
technical skills and modernism to defend the separation of religion and
state, equality between men and women and sovereignty over Iraq's
natural resources. This youth will not accept selling short the rights
of the country and nation. While humanity has neared the edge of moral
suicide, the success of their struggle is our salvation. My heart is
Iraqi.

Here is a brief introduction to the US Governments current façade re:
Zero Point Vacuum Fluctuation physics. In other words this is the face
they want to put on this field. The oscillator metaphor is in error
because it presupposes that mass is the origin of the Zero Point Field.
However, I am sending this on because it is something like a public
acknowledgement by NASA of what a handful of us have been researching
for more than a quarter of a century. There are scientists at NASA and
within the government domain who know much, much more than what is
revealed in this little video. I hope some of you can relate to what is
substantive here i.e. the Casimir Effect, etc…

What did China have to do with 9-11?
by Dick Eastman http://bedoper.com/eastman
The Chinese gained from the 9-11 false-flag provocateur mass-murder asymetrical-warfare operation against the US and Islam.
The Moslem Taliban were erradicating the opium growing in Afganistan -- which cut shipments of opium over the old silk road to China which cut the production and world distribution of Chinese heroin -- of which a trillion dollars worth was laundered into London, US, Swiss, German and French merchant banks each year where it was (is) invested in China's "miraculous" super industrialization (with slave-labor compensation) -- the Chinese needed the Taliban taken down and the so-called "Norther Alliance" drug-lords put in control. 9-11 accomplished this. (Remember how Taliban leader Mohammed Omar told Bush that he would extradite bin Laden to the U.S. immediately if Bush would only show some evidence linking bin Laden to 9-11 -- Bush refused and invaded -- and you know the rest of that story.
The Moslems under Han Red Chinese domination had been looking to the Taliban for religious inspiration in the face of Chinese enforced atheism and persecution and racial discrimination. The Chinese needed the (stupid) U.S. to be fooled by the 9-11 false-flag attack so that they would (with neo-con management) attack and destroy the government of the religious clean-living Taliban.
China has never given up the goal of defeating the U.S. -- essentially Jeffersonian bourgeois liberalism -- but they have proceeded in surreptitious cunning -- attacking our culture, our economy, our institutions, our relations with the world. The 9-11 wars exhaust America and the make America hated in the world. The Chinese have long past the point where they are stronger than the U.S. in the world -- all of the wealth of the U.S. is concentrated in internationalist ruling-class families who are allied with Chinese ruling class power -- the power that enslaves China today in the coils of market totalitarianism.

You are aware how American corporations are controlled by the American
power elite -- the criminal "globalist" ruling elite. In the same way the
Chinese People's Liberation Army is a giant corporation also run by
ruling families -- Triad crime families -- who control the communist state
apparatus. The ruling families of East and West are allied in their plans
for global domination -- world-class aristocracy over a broken and docile
servant class. Their enemy is middle-class culture, the rights of the
common man, government for the people rather than for the
plutocratic families -- with the ideology of the aristocracies of Europe.

The CIA and Mossad and MI6 are merely branch offices of capitalism's
secret services -- when the power elite wants a job done they call on Mossad,
because they can most be trusted. Mossad has infiltrated the CIA and MI6
and the Pentagon -- what do you think "neo-cons" really are? -- Yes this is
my opinion, but I am convinced this is how it is -- this is the explanation that
fits the facts.

The idea was born of men like Wolfowitz and Richard Perle and Kissinger
and nameless merchant bankers and Chinese princelings. Mossad was
assigned to capture the centers of control within the CIA, NSA, FBI,
FAA, Pentagon, Media, Congress, Corporations to execute the false-flag
operation. During the Bush I and Clinton administrations the machinery
was put in place -- Clinton was a month in China planning 9-11 with
the Israelis during his presidency. Israel and Red China have been
allies since Zhou Enlai first recognized Israel in 1949 -- Israel has
provided China with a steady stream of U.S. military secrets -- including
the neutron bomb.
Israel is allied with China against the U.S. -- the economic "ties"
(chains) between U.S. and China is part of a long-term deception strategy.

Zhou Enlai untied the Chinese Communist Party with the Triads during the
Conflict with Chang Kai-shek (Republic of China on Taiwan) to undermine
Chang. The Chinese Communists have always been opium and heroin
dealers -- look at the Maoist F.A.R.C. revolutionaries in Columbia etc.
and the earlier Shining Path Maoists in Peru.

The CHinese have been bent on conquest for 50 years -- they have just kept
it to themselves. They view the economic ties as a way to capture American
economic power for themselves -- they view it as an act of war against an
unsuspecting enemy. They seek to defeat their enemy indirectly -- to
exhaust and confuse us -- to bribe and corrupt our "princes" -- to make us
dependent and easy to cut off from life support.
After Nixon "opened China" in that famous visit -- David Rockefeller arrived
the very next week with Kissinger and met with Zhou Enlai and the
great transfer of knowledge and industrial capital to China was
settled upon -- Big Finance would stop investing in the U.S. and
would finance slave-labor super factories in China -- to replace
as leader of the world a "free" pro-middl-class culture,
with a definite ruling-class servant-class totalitarian model -- where
ruling families would be forever supreme and never again
challenged by middle-class interests -- by Jeffersonain principles,
by the rights of man, by bourgeois (middle-class) justice, by liberalism.

Subject: WHO?
Who will look out for the middle class?
To the Editor:
My friend was just fired. When expressing my empathy, I asked about her plans for future employment. She has none.
While crunching the numbers, she realized she'd have a higher standard of living by drawing the $275 unemployment compensation, spending the $500 food stamp allowance and using her medical coverage through TennCare for herself and her three boys. She is no longer among the working poor.
Like many Americans and despite our president's claims that "our economy is strong," we have had a similar year.
The company my husband worked for went out of business, I lost my job last May, and we had a child start college. I was cut from TennCare, being uninsurable didn't matter to the state, or that private coverage is unaffordable given our circumstances.
I worked three jobs in 2005, my husband began freelancing in his field, my daughter took a part-time job for college expenses, and we still only earned half of the previous year's income.
The rich can take care of themselves; the poor will be taken care of, but who rallies for the middle class? We continue to pay the taxes, fund the programs for those who can't and those who won't.
So, I understand my friend's attitude. What is the incentive to make a real living?

This, friends, is a big deal, when this type of article hits a mainstream newspaper!
I think we need to write to all of our local papers and share this article with them and challenge THEM to start printing what Boston Herald did - and what 84% of those in the CNN poll are saying is true!
http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/showbiz.tonight/
And to anti-war friends - please remember that when the War On Terror is exposed as the big fake it actually is... that is when Americans will demand that our troops come home and the nation will together stand up and demand that no more phony wars are orchestrated and staged against manufactured enemies in false flag terror attacks.

I don't find this analysis at all compelling. Rather, I think

I'm only slightly familiar with Daryl Bradford Smith's earlier

interested in attracting attention to himself than in accomplishing
anything significant. In fact, this is giving him the benefit of the
doubt because the alternative is that he's a divide-and-conquer

within the 9/11 Truth Movement. Please see my earlier comment on him

It seems to me that if 9/11 starts getting mainstream, we may consider
using the 9/11 exposure force to truly change our society. Perhaps we
can use it on a global scale not just the USA.
We can all envision a more just society, with a strong social fabric,
to become a beacon of hope for positive social change. A real global
golden jubilee.
To that ends, we could consider nationalization of all energy, banking

companies take billions of dollars of our economy and our pockets, and
corrupt/disrupt our society. worldwide.
Let work for Public video and audio in every legislature, courtroom,

GOVERNMENT OF THE USA IN EXILE
Free Americans Reaching Out to Amerika's Huddled Masses Yearning
to Breathe Free
Via
December 22, 2005
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
I'm quite grateful to Jeremy below for his tremendously important
Editorial.
I'd been equally shocked by Daryl Bradford Smith's two-faced
behavior (i.e., hip to 9/11 Inside Job but not to ETs) and have been
trying to get time to express myself about it. Ah, but Jeremy's
expression is both more polite and more thorough than mine would have
been.
What's at stake here most importantly is that unless we overcome
being so divided (and thus so conquered), we stand little chance in our
resistance to the Fourth Reich's current main puppets, the Bush Junta.
There must be a coalition much much broader than anything to date
in homeplanet history. It must include nearly everyone opposed to the
Bush Junta and it must behave in a way signifying it knows that the
Fourth Reich controls both mainstream US political parties. (So we can
avoid all the current loyal-opposition bullshit.) If a person is
opposed to the junta because he or she thinks it isn't adequately
preparing a defense against an ET invasion, I'm quite willing to work
with that person within certain specific contexts of resistance even
though I think it's highly likely that we'd already have been invaded
if any of the ETs had that sort of interest.
But how can we build such a broad coalition when someone like
Smith--so well-informed in nearly all respects--is in such hysterical
Denial merely about visits by folks from various off-planet cultures?
What is it about this sort of info that's so nerve-wracking to
him? I'm not sure but I want to suggest that in the interests of
coalition-building we should minimize negative moral judgments about
him and instead concentrate on the human nervous system's quite limited
ability to absorb what certain existentialists called nonbeing--and
which we might these days call bummers.
There are yogas available--in secular scientific form, let me
hasten to add--which as daily practices can steadily increase our
neural stamina--that is, increase the quantities of bummers we can
absorb before physiologically (and thus a negative moral judgment here
is inappropriate) needing to escape into Denial: All Work and No Play
Makes Jack a Dull Boy. Whenever I exceed the quantities I can handle,
I succumb to Information Illness: mainly a spectacular exhaustion but
also usually a bit of vague depression.) I wish I could learn to
discern when I've nearly exceeded what I can handle.
Never before in homeplanet history have people had to face so many
different sorts of bummers simultaneously. The lower the human
population-density you inhabit, the easier it is. It's toughest of all
for those who have lived many consecutive years within Manhattan
Island's overwhelming densities--as people like Danny Schechter and A.
J. Weberman so poignantly exemplify.
If any of you have friends who aren't yet convinced that we're
being visited by folks from more mature solar systems, please ask them
to absorb the 2001 National Press Club news conference featured at
.
Another totally convincing portrayal--though much less
accessible--is the 1997 three-part BBC World Service radio series. In
fact, I'll cover costs of obtaining a copy of those three broadcasts
for the first person to email me that he or she will do so. (Evidently
a credit card is necessary and I disdain them.) It was produced by a
fiction writer named Anthony Gray, who went into it totally skeptically
(probably the only reason BBC hired him) but evolved into total
acceptance. The BBC was so embarrassed by his sudden acceptance that
it aired his shows at a time (0230-0300 GMT) guaranteeing the smallest
possible European audience. They occurred the last Friday of August
and the first two Fridays of September. I don't have a 1997 calendar
but I think the dates would be 8/29, 9/5 and 9/12.
In any case, let's work on convening all the various US movements
so they can--for example--agree on targets for massive boycotts. This
way, we stand a chance of finally becoming very expensive for the
reichers--and thus perhaps finally effective enough to influence their
behavior in a manner favorable to the survival of humans and other
species. For money is nearly all they understand.
Yours for all

I wrote the following and send it along to others of the truth movement
fyi.... Jeremy
TOLERATING OUTRAGOUS CONSPIRACY THEORIES
I am very active in the 911 truth movement.
Last night I listened to an internet broadcast by Daryl Bradford
Smith with
guest Eric Hufschmidt, creator of the seminal 911 video and
book, Painful
Deceptions and Painful Questions.
Both were bemoaning the "contamination" of the 911 truth movement
by people who believe in UFOs and other mysteries certified by a
consensus of mainstream
academia as unworthy of serious study. The Amazing Randi would be
proud to join
in their call for dismissing such topics. I am not.
Mr. Smith has posted a statement on his site calling for all
rational people
to castigate those who even discuss topics such as UFOs. I wrote Mr.
Smith,
stating that a respect for others' beliefs is fundamental in any effort
to convince
others of a truth they are yet unaware of. His response was
unrelenting.
Issac Newton and Edmund Haley were friends. They once had a
discussion on
alchemy. You may know that Newton spent half his labors on the study
of alchemy.
When Haley protested this foolishness, Newton responded, "I, sir, have
studied
the subject, you have not."
And so it is with UFOs and Crop Circles. Anyone who dismisses
them as
ridiculous has not done their homework. Has Mr. Smith studied the
cases of Betty and Barney
Hill, the Allagash incident, Travis Walton, Roswell, the works of
Stanton Friedman,
Alan Hynek, John Mack, the governments of Belgium, France, Mexico, et
al. and a
whole shipload of other witnesses, researchers and officials whose
claims and empirical
data have withstood years of assault by those out to prove them
unworthy?
Did he talk to the late Professor Hawkins who discovered five new
theorems
from the Crop Circle geometry? Can he explain the molecular change in
the stalks
of plants bent over in Crop Circles? Can he explain the
electromagnetic anomalies
measured in the circles or a host of other anomalies that defy a
manmade explanation?
If he has, I sure wish he would share his logical conclusions with the
rest of the
world so we can put these mysteries aside. But I'm willing to venture
a high
probability that he has no answers. He ain't alone. But the rest of
us don't
feel a necessity to chide others for their beliefs just because the
subject matter
is discussed by a wide variety of persons with claims that have little
or no scientific
backing.......so far.
In a high-level conspiracy like 911, the powers behind it seem to
employ a
tactic of infiltrating the truth movement with disinformation. The
purpose is so
that ordinary people looking into the conspiracy, but not yet well
informed of the
facts, will see a lie and will then quickly dismiss the whole effort to
uncover
a conspiracy as just so much nonsense. Mr. Smith seems to have fallen
victim not
so much to the act of covert disinformation, (though there seems to be
plenty of
that in the UFO and crop circle field, as Dr. Hynek and George
Wingfield and others
have stated), but by his rejection of the innocent interpretations of a
phenomenon
by people with no allegiance to the scientific method. Such persons
are not necessarily
wrong nor are they unworthy of a voice in society.
Scientifically, no one can say anything with 100% certainty. One
can only
give it a high or low degree of probability, based on a logical
evaluation of how
the data supports a working hypothesis. More and more, what was once
considered
ridiculous is becoming empirical. Professor Gary Schwartz's work with
mediums
and Professor Ian Stevenson's work on reincarnation and other rigorous
studies of
the paranormal hearken back to days when Giordano Bruno was burned for
heresy as
the old school began to crumble. Any fool can see the sun goes around
the earth.
It takes a special fool to see beyond the veil.
If Mr. Smith feels that people who think that we are being visited
by aliens
should be burned at the stake, that's his misfortune. But for those of
us
who are actively trying to spread 911 truth, he is a burden in our
efforts to convince
others to have an open mind.
The opinion polls show 80 percent of Americans think the government
is hiding
knowledge of the existence of extraterrestrial life forms. Shall we
not talk to
those people? Mr. Smith's call for chastising unofficial beliefs is
not only
ironic; it is limited hangout in our growth as a civilization.
I can forgive Eric for overactive skepticism. Perhaps his
intolerance is a
by-product of an extremely analytical mind that gave us his videos and
books. I
prefer to believe that one day both of these men and others who share
their disdain
for outrageous conspiracy theories will one day see that all is
relative and there
are more things in heaven and earth that are dreamt of in our
philosophy.

What did China have to do with 9-11?
by Dick Eastman http://bedoper.com/eastman
The Chinese gained from the 9-11 false-flag provocateur mass-murder
asymetrical-warfare operation against the US and Islam.
The Moslem Taliban were erradicating the opium growing in Afganistan --
which cut shipments of opium over the old silk road to China which cut the
production and world distribution of Chinese heroin -- of which a trillion
dollars worth was laundered into London, US, Swiss, German and French
merchant banks each year where it was (is) invested in China's "miraculous"
super industrialization (with slave-labor compensation) -- the Chinese
needed the Taliban taken down and the so-called "Norther Alliance"
drug-lords put in control. 9-11 accomplished this. (Remember how Taliban
leader Mohammed Omar told Bush that he would extradite bin Laden to the U.S.
immediately if Bush would only show some evidence linking bin Laden to
-11 -- Bush refused and invaded -- and you know the rest of that story.
The Moslems under Han Red Chinese domination had been looking to the Taliban
for religious inspiration in the face of Chinese enforced atheism and
persecution and racial discrimination. The Chinese needed the (stupid) U.S.
to be fooled by the 9-11 false-flag attack so that they would (with neo-con
management) attack and destroy the government of the religious clean-living
Taliban.
China has never given up the goal of defeating the U.S. -- essentially
Jeffersonian bourgeois liberalism -- but they have proceeded in
surreptitious cunning -- attacking our culture, our economy, our
institutions, our relations with the world. The 9-11 wars exhaust America
and the make America hated in the world. The Chinese have long past the
point where they are stronger than the U.S. in the world -- all of the
wealth of the U.S. is concentrated in internationalist ruling-class families
who are allied with Chinese ruling class power -- the power that enslaves
China today in the coils of market totalitarianism.

You are aware how American corporations are controlled by the American
power elite -- the criminal "globalist" ruling elite. In the same way the
Chinese People's Liberation Army is a giant corporation also run by
ruling families -- Triad crime families -- who control the communist state
apparatus. The ruling families of East and West are allied in their plans
for global domination -- world-class aristocracy over a broken and docile
servant class. Their enemy is middle-class culture, the rights of the
common man, government for the people rather than for the
plutocratic families -- with the ideology of the aristocracies of Europe.

The CIA and Mossad and MI6 are merely branch offices of capitalism's
secret services -- when the power elite wants a job done they call on
Mossad,
because they can most be trusted. Mossad has infiltrated the CIA and MI6
and the Pentagon -- what do you think "neo-cons" really are? -- Yes this
is
my opinion, but I am convinced this is how it is -- this is the explanation

The idea was born of men like Wolfowitz and Richard Perle and Kissinger
and nameless merchant bankers and Chinese princelings. Mossad was
assigned to capture the centers of control within the CIA, NSA, FBI,
FAA, Pentagon, Media, Congress, Corporations to execute the false-flag
operation. During the Bush I and Clinton administrations the machinery
was put in place -- Clinton was a month in China planning 9-11 with
the Israelis during his presidency. Israel and Red China have been
allies since Zhou Enlai first recognized Israel in 1949 -- Israel has
provided China with a steady stream of U.S. military secrets -- including
the neutron bomb.
Israel is allied with China against the U.S. -- the economic "ties"
(chains) between U.S. and China is part of a long-term deception strategy.

Zhou Enlai untied the Chinese Communist Party with the Triads during the
Conflict with Chang Kai-shek (Republic of China on Taiwan) to undermine
Chang. The Chinese Communists have always been opium and heroin
dealers -- look at the Maoist F.A.R.C. revolutionaries in Columbia etc.
and the earlier Shining Path Maoists in Peru.

The CHinese have been bent on conquest for 50 years -- they have just kept
it to themselves. They view the economic ties as a way to capture American
economic power for themselves -- they view it as an act of war against an
unsuspecting enemy. They seek to defeat their enemy indirectly -- to
exhaust and confuse us -- to bribe and corrupt our "princes" -- to make us
dependent and easy to cut off from life support.
After Nixon "opened China" in that famous visit -- David Rockefeller arrived
the very next week with Kissinger and met with Zhou Enlai and the
great transfer of knowledge and industrial capital to China was
settled upon -- Big Finance would stop investing in the U.S. and
would finance slave-labor super factories in China -- to replace
as leader of the world a "free" pro-middl-class culture,
with a definite ruling-class servant-class totalitarian model -- where
ruling families would be forever supreme and never again
challenged by middle-class interests -- by Jeffersonain principles,
by the rights of man, by bourgeois (middle-class) justice, by liberalism.

Bush shuns Patriot Act requirement
In addendum to law, he says oversight rules are not binding
By Charlie Savage, Globe Staff | March 24, 2006
WASHINGTON -- When President Bush signed the reauthorization of the
USA Patriot Act this month, he included an addendum saying that he
did not feel obliged to obey requirements that he inform Congress
about how the FBI was using the act's expanded police powers.
The bill contained several oversight provisions intended to make
sure the FBI did not abuse the special terrorism-related powers to
search homes and secretly seize papers. The provisions require
Justice Department officials to keep closer track of how often the
FBI uses the new powers and in what type of situations. Under the
law, the administration would have to provide the information to
Congress by certain dates.
Bush signed the bill with fanfare at a White House ceremony March 9,
calling it ''a piece of legislation that's vital to win the war on
terror and to protect the American people." But after the reporters
and guests had left, the White House quietly issued a ''signing
statement," an official document in which a president lays out his
interpretation of a new law.
In the statement, Bush said that he did not consider himself bound
to tell Congress how the Patriot Act powers were being used and
that, despite the law's requirements, he could withhold the
information if he decided that disclosure would ''impair foreign
relations, national security, the deliberative process of the
executive, or the performance of the executive's constitutional
duties."
Bush wrote: ''The executive branch shall construe the
provisions . . . that call for furnishing information to entities
outside the executive branch . . . in a manner consistent with the
president's constitutional authority to supervise the unitary
executive branch and to withhold information . . . "
The statement represented the latest in a string of high-profile
instances in which Bush has cited his constitutional authority to
bypass a law.
After The New York Times disclosed in December that Bush had
authorized the military to conduct electronic surveillance of
Americans' international phone calls and e-mails without obtaining
warrants, as required by law, Bush said his wartime powers gave him
the right to ignore the warrant law.
And when Congress passed a law forbidding the torture of any
detainee in US custody, Bush signed the bill but issued a signing
statement declaring that he could bypass the law if he believed
using harsh interrogation techniques was necessary to protect
national security.
Past presidents occasionally used such signing statements to
describe their interpretations of laws, but Bush has expanded the
practice. He has also been more assertive in claiming the authority
to override provisions he thinks intrude on his power, legal
scholars said.
Bush's expansive claims of the power to bypass laws have provoked
increased grumbling in Congress. Members of both parties have
pointed out that the Constitution gives the legislative branch the
power to write the laws and the executive branch the duty
to ''faithfully execute" them.
Several senators have proposed bills to bring the warrantless
surveillance program under the law. One Democrat, Senator Russell
Feingold of Wisconsin, has gone so far as to propose censuring Bush,
saying he has broken the wiretapping law.
Bush's signing statement on the USA Patriot Act nearly went
unnoticed.
Senator Patrick J. Leahy, Democrat of Vermont, inserted a statement
into the record of the Senate Judiciary Committee objecting to
Bush's interpretation of the Patriot Act, but neither the signing
statement nor Leahy's objection received coverage from in the
mainstream news media, Leahy's office said.
Yesterday, Leahy said Bush's assertion that he could ignore the new
provisions of the Patriot Act -- provisions that were the subject of
intense negotiations in Congress -- represented ''nothing short of a
radical effort to manipulate the constitutional separation of powers
and evade accountability and responsibility for following the law."
''The president's signing statements are not the law, and Congress
should not allow them to be the last word," Leahy said in a prepared
statement. ''The president's constitutional duty is to faithfully
execute the laws as written by the Congress, not cherry-pick the
laws he decides he wants to follow. It is our duty to ensure, by
means of congressional oversight, that he does so."
The White House dismissed Leahy's concerns, saying Bush's signing
statement was simply ''very standard language" that is ''used
consistently with provisions like these where legislation is
requiring reports from the executive branch or where disclosure of
information is going to be required."
''The signing statement makes clear that the president will
faithfully execute the law in a manner that is consistent with the
Constitution," said White House spokeswoman Dana Perino. ''The
president has welcomed at least seven Inspector General reports on
the Patriot Act since it was first passed, and there has not been
one verified abuse of civil liberties using the Patriot Act."
David Golove, a New York University law professor who specializes in
executive power issues, said the statement may simply be ''bluster"
and does not necessarily mean that the administration will conceal
information about its use of the Patriot Act.
But, he said, the statement illustrates the administration's ''mind-
bogglingly expansive conception" of executive power, and its low
regard for legislative power.
''On the one hand, they deny that Congress even has the authority to
pass laws on these subjects like torture and eavesdropping, and in
addition to that, they say that Congress is not even entitled to get
information about anything to do with the war on terrorism," Golove
said.

Subject: die bold hackers
Dissing Diebold
Alexandra Walker
March 23, 2006
Diebold, dubbed an "e-voting recidivist " by the Electronic Frontier
Foundation, may soon be blocked from operating their voting machines
in Maryland. Two weeks ago, the Maryland House of Delegates voted
overwhelmingly to require paper ballots—not electronic voting
machines—be used in this year's elections. The Maryland Senate will
consider the measure any day now.
Even Maryland's very Republican governor, Robert Erhlich, has
publicly expressed his concern about the integrity of Diebold's e-
voting technology. As he should. Today, in an editorial, The New
York Times urges the Maryland Senate to support the bill. The Times
described why opposition is growing in Maryland to Diebold's
technology:
Maryland was one of the first states to embrace Diebold. But
Maryland voters and elected officials have grown increasingly
disenchanted as evidence has mounted that the machines cannot be
trusted. In 2004, security experts from RABA Technologies told the
state legislature that they had been able to hack into the machines
in a way that would make it possible to steal an election. Senator
Barbara Mikulski, a Democrat, informed the State Board of Elections
in 2004 that voters had complained to her that machines had
mysteriously omitted the Senate race.
Last week, Kevin Zeese—founder of the nation's leading citizen
groups working to end paperless electronic voting—explained why
Maryland's move is significant to the rest of the country:
Maryland is of national interest because [Maryland State Election
Administrator Linda] Lamone is the President of the National
Association of State Election Directors (NASED) and the most
vociferous advocate for paperless voting in the United States. John
Gideon Information Manager of VoteTrustUSA.org says "NASED presently
controls all federal voting systems qualifications. They control the
panel that reviews the testing results from the Independent Test
Authorities and because of that they control who gets qualified and
who doesn't." Indeed, unless Maryland passes legislation
immediately, it will be the only state to use a statewide paperless
Diebold system as Georgia, the other statewide paperless state, has
announced it is changing its system.
Writing for TomPaine.com recently, e-voting expert David Dill argued
that requiring paper records is one of the best immediate fixes to
the nation's voting problems:
Right now, the only feasible solution to the insecurity of
electronic voting is a universal requirement for voter-verified
paper records of all ballots (VVPR). We also need to pass laws that
enable candidates to obtain manual recounts easily and
inexpensively. There is now a national movement to make sure this
technology is used, and it's winning, slowly but surely.
Maryland's likely conversion is a sign that the momentum is
building. But paper ballots are not without problems. Today's
reports out of Illinois show that its system of electronic voting
machines and paper ballots caused numerous election-day glitches in
Cook County.* As I understand it, Cook County has in place the very
system Maryland is moving toward and which is widely supported by
election reform advocates. Cook County's problems are understandably
arousingsuspicion. They also serve as a reminder that to restore
people's trust in the complexity of America's electoral process,
election reform must be comprehensive. A paper trail is important,
but so, too, is moving forward on other major reforms. Dill outlined
four aspects of the election process that require major changes:
I propose a four part solution: We need to ensure that voting
technology is transparent; election procedures need to be rethought
to emphasize openness, security and checks and balances; election
laws need to be revised to support these points and to make it easy
for candidates to get reliable, manual recounts; finally, citizens
need to participate in witnessing elections and making sure they are
conducted properly.
E-voting was an attempt to fix the "hanging chads" that plagued us
in 2000. Paper trails provide a remedy for the widely distrusted and
insecure e-voting systems in use in 2004. But improving this
essential element of American democracy means doing more than merely
responding to the last election's problems.
UPDATE: The original version of this blog indicated that Cook County
election officials were conducting a recount. They are not.

Government Won't Allow Mad Cow Tests; Meatpacker Sues
March 23, 2006, 08:34 PM EST
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A Kansas meatpacker sued the government on
Thursday for refusing to let the company test for mad cow disease in
every animal it slaughters. Creekstone Farms Premium Beef says it
has Japanese customers who want comprehensive testing.
The Agriculture Department threatened criminal prosecution if
Creekstone did the tests, according to the company's lawsuit filed
in U.S. District Court in Washington.
"We're not in any way saying that U.S. beef isn't safe; we believe
it's the safest beef supply in the world, but that's not the issue,"
chief executive John Stewart said at a news conference. "We're
talking about consumers, and consumers want the product tested,"
Stewart said.
Testing for mad cow disease in the United States is controlled by
the department, which tests about 1% of the 35 million cattle, or
about 350,000, that are slaughtered each year. The department is
planning to reduce that level of testing.
Stewart said he was surprised at the plan to scale back
testing. "Given the concerns internationally, I'm not so sure that's
the right thing to do."
Private companies certified by the department make screening tests
used to detect mad cow disease. The department says it has sole
authority over the sale and use of the tests. Department officials
say they oppose 100% testing because it does not ensure food safety.
The disease is difficult to detect in younger animals, which are the
source of most beef. Larger meatpackers worry that insistence from
Japanese buyers would force them to do testing, and that a suspect
result might scare consumers away from eating beef.
It would cost about $20 per animal to do the tests, adding about 10
cents per pound to the cost of meat, according to Stewart.
Japan tests nearly all its cattle for mad cow disease. While
individual companies there may want more testing in the U.S.,
Japan's government is not asking the U.S. to do the same. For now,
Japan has halted American beef shipments because inspectors in
January found cuts of U.S. veal containing backbone, which is banned
in Japan even though it's eaten in the U.S. Japan had only recently
lifted a ban on American beef imposed after the first U.S. case of
mad cow disease in 2003. Until then, Japan was the top foreign buyer
of American beef, accounting for around $1.4 billion in sales in
2003.
Creekstone cut production and laid off about 150 employees at its
Arkansas City, Kansas, plant because of the ban. Stewart said
Creekstone's customers understand the limitations of the tests. He
added that he expects Japan to reopen its market regardless of
whether Creekstone is allowed to test its cattle.
The medical name for mad cow disease, a brain-wasting ailment, is
bovine spongiform encephalopathy, or BSE. In Humans, eating meat
products contaminated with BSE is linked to more than 150 deaths
worldwide, mostly in Britain, from a deadly human nerve disorder,
variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease.
There have been three cases of mad cow disease in the U.S. The
first, in December 2003 in Washington state, was in a cow that had
been imported from Canada. The second, last June, was in a Texas-
born cow. The third was confirmed last week in an Alabama cow.
Japan has had two dozen cases of BSE.

The Dubai takeover is not over. I call it the great American sell-

I have traced the buyout as far back as 1978:
1978 - Sea-Land establishes a private, limited corporation
responsible to the Ruler of Dubai for the maintenance of a state-of-
the-art, 66 berth, deep water port and trucking operation in the
Emirates.
1980 merger begins with Chessie System and Seaboard Coast Line
Industries
1984 Sea-Land Corp merges with R.J. Reynolds Industries, Inc.
1986 CSX Corp buys Sea-Land
CSX Transportation was formed July 1, 1986, when renaming the
Seaboard System Railroad, which had taken over Atlantic Coast Line
Railroad, Louisville, Nashville Railroad, Seaboard Air Line
Railroad, and several smaller subsidiaries.
April 30, 1987, Chesapeake and Ohio Railway takes over Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad.
August 31, 1987 CSX merged with Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad
June 23, 1997, CSX Transportation and Norfolk Southern, filed
jointly for authority to purchase Consolidated Rail Corporation
(Conrail), which also owned several Northeastern railway systems.
Sale was approved by Surface Transportation Board June 6, 1998
June 1, 1999. New York Central Lines, former New York Central
Railroad became a subsidiary CSX,
CSX also owns two Canadian Railroad companies with a few other
routes in and out of Canada.
CSX operates the famous Tropicana fresh orange juice trains between
Florida and Jersey City, New Jersey, and Cincinnati, Ohio.

and I find this the most interesting and weirdest point of all. Even
on CNN they're looking for "other people in Hollywood that "feel"
the same way", Alex Jones was quick enough to point this is not a
Sheen-Alex Jones affair...
My take on the New York Magazine Story, CNN and this "expose" is
that the powers that be are testing the waters, taking the
temperature of the country, by letting snipets of selected info
by "lunies" into the air to see what happens. In essense, they have
admitted defeat and are presently doing damage control. Sheen has
little do to with 911 but how does the public react? Will there be
an avalanche? Will they storm the Whitehouse? Can they contain 911
by doing a character assasination on Sheen? (not likely).
Nonetheless, interesting how they jokey for position on the deck of
the Titanic.

The Doors Of Perception:
Why Americans Will
Believe Almost Anything
By Tim O'Shea
www.thedoctorwithin.com
8-18-1
Aldous Huxley's inspired 1956 essay detailed the vivid, mind-expanding, multisensory insights of his mescaline adventures. By altering his brain chemistry with natural psychotropics, Huxley tapped into a rich and fluid world of shimmering, indescribable beauty and power. With his neurosensory input thus triggered, Huxley was able to enter that parallel universe described by every mystic and space captain in recorded history. Whether by hallucination or epiphany, Huxley sought to remove all controls, all filters, all cultural conditioning from his perceptions and to confront Nature or the World or Reality first-hand - in its unpasteurized, unedited, unretouched, infinite rawness.
Those bonds are much harder to break today, half a century later. We are the most conditioned, programmed beings the world has ever known. Not only are our thoughts and attitudes continually being shaped and molded; our very awareness of the whole design seems like it is being subtly and inexorably erased. The doors of our perception are carefully and precisely regulated. Who cares, right?
It is an exhausting and endless task to keep explaining to people how most issues of conventional wisdom are scientifically implanted in the public consciousness by a thousand media clips per day. In an effort to save time, I would like to provide just a little background on the handling of information in this country. Once the basic principles are illustrated about how our current system of media control arose historically, the reader might be more apt to question any given popular opinion.
If everybody believes something, it's probably wrong. We call that
Conventional Wisdom.
In America, conventional wisdom that has mass acceptance is usually contrived: somebody paid for it.
Examples:
* Pharmaceuticals restore health
* Vaccination brings immunity
* The cure for cancer is just around the corner
* Menopause is a disease condition
* When a child is sick, he needs immediate antibiotics
* When a child has a fever he needs Tylenol
* Hospitals are safe and clean.
* America has the best health care in the world.
* Americans have the best health in the world.
* Milk is a good source of calcium.
* You never outgrow your need for milk.
* Vitamin C is ascorbic acid.
* Aspirin prevents heart attacks.
* Heart drugs improve the heart.
* Back and neck pain are the only reasons for spinal adjustment.
* No child can get into school without being vaccinated.
* The FDA thoroughly tests all drugs before they go on the market.
* Back and neck pain are the only reason for spinal adjustment.
* Pregnancy is a serious medical condition
* Chemotherapy and radiation are effective cures for cancer
* When your child is diagnosed with an ear infection, antibiotics should be given
immediately 'just in case'
* Ear tubes are for the good of the child.
* Estrogen drugs prevent osteoporosis after menopause.
* Pediatricians are the most highly trained of al medical specialists.
* The purpose of the health care industry is health.
* HIV is the cause of AIDS.
* AZT is the cure.
* Without vaccines, infectious diseases will return
* Fluoride in the city water protects your teeth
* Flu shots prevent the flu.
* Vaccines are thoroughly tested before being placed on the Mandated Schedule.
* Doctors are certain that the benefits of vaccines far outweigh any possible risks.
* There is a power shortage in California.
* There is a meningitis epidemic in California.
* The NASDAQ is a natural market controlled only by supply and demand.
* Chronic pain is a natural consequence of aging.
* Soy is your healthiest source of protein.
* Insulin shots cure diabetes.
* After we take out your gall bladder you can eat anything you want
* Allergy medicine will cure allergies.
This is a list of illusions, that have cost billions and billions to conjure up. Did you ever wonder why you never see the President speaking publicly unless he is reading? Or why most people in this country think generally the same about most of the above issues?
HOW THIS WHOLE SET-UP GOT STARTED
In Trust Us We're Experts, Stauber and Rampton pull together some compelling data describing the science of creating public opinion in America. They trace modern public influence back to the early part of the last century, highlighting the work of guys like Edward L. Bernays, the Father of Spin. From his own amazing chronicle Propaganda, we learn how Edward L. Bernays took the ideas of his famous uncle Sigmund Freud himself and applied them to the emerging science of mass persuasion. The only difference was that instead of using these principles to uncover hidden themes in the human unconscious, the way Freudian psychology does, Bernays used these same ideas to mask agendas and to create illusions that deceive and misrepresent, for marketing purposes.
THE FATHER OF SPIN
Bernays dominated the PR industry until the 1940s, and was a significant force for another 40 years after that. (Tye) During all that time, Bernays took on hundreds of diverse assignments to create a public perception about some idea or product. A few examples: As a neophyte with the Committee on Public Information, one of Bernays' first assignments was to help sell the First World War to the American public with the idea to "Make the World Safe for Democracy." (Ewen)
A few years later, Bernays set up a stunt to popularize the notion of women smoking cigarettes. In organizing the 1929 Easter Parade in New York City, Bernays showed himself as a force to be reckoned with. He organized the Torches of Liberty Brigade in which suffragettes marched in the parade smoking cigarettes as a mark of women's liberation. Such publicity followed from that one event that from then on women have felt secure about destroying their own lungs in public, the same way that men have always done.
Bernays popularized the idea of bacon for breakfast. Not one to turn down a challenge, he set up the advertising format along with the AMA that lasted for nearly 50 years proving that cigarettes are beneficial to health. Just look at ads in issues of Life or Time from the 40s and 50s.
During the next several decades Bernays and his colleagues evolved the principles by which masses of people could be generally swayed through messages repeated over and over hundreds of times. One the value of media became apparent, other countries of the world tried to follow our lead. But Bernays really was the gold standard. Josef Goebbels, who was Hitler's minister of propaganda, studied the principles of Edward Bernays when Goebbels was developing the popular rationale he would use to convince the Germans that they had to purify their race. (Stauber)
SMOKE AND MIRRORS
Bernay's job was to reframe an issue; to create a desired image that would put a particular product or concept in a desirable light. Bernays described the public as a 'herd that needed to be led.' And this herdlike thinking makes people "susceptible to leadership." Bernays never deviated from his fundamental axiom to "control the masses without their knowing it." The best PR happens with the people unaware that they are being manipulated.
Stauber describes Bernays' rationale like this: "the scientific manipulation of public opinion was necessary to overcome chaos and conflict in a democratic society." Trust Us p 42
These early mass persuaders postured themselves as performing a moral service for humanity in general - democracy was too good for people; they needed to be told what to think, because they were incapable of rational thought by themselves. Here's a paragraph from Bernays' Propaganda: "Those who manipulate the unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. We are governed, our minds molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested largely by men we have never heard of. This is a logical result of the way in which our democratic society is organized. Vast numbers of human beings must cooperate in this manner if they are to live together as a smoothly functioning society. In almost every act of our lives whether in the sphere of politics or business in our social conduct or our ethical thinking, we are dominated by the relatively small number of persons who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. It
is they who pull the wires that control the public mind."
A tad different from Thomas Jefferson's view on the subject:
"I know of no safe depository of the ultimate power of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise that control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not take it from them, but to inform their discretion."
Inform their discretion. Bernays believed that only a few possessed the necessary insight into the Big Picture to be entrusted with this sacred task. And luckily, he saw himself as one of that few.
HERE COMES THE MONEY
Once the possibilities of applying Freudian psychology to mass media were glimpsed, Bernays soon had more corporate clients than he could handle. Global corporations fell all over themselves courting the new Image Makers. There were dozens of goods and services and ideas to be sold to a susceptible public. Over the years, these players have had the money to make their images happen. A few examples:
Philip Morris Pfizer Union Carbide Allstate Monsanto Eli Lilly tobacco industry Ciba Geigy lead industry Coors DuPont Chlorox Shell Oil Standard Oil Procter & Gamble Boeing General Motors Dow Chemical General Mills Goodyear
THE PLAYERS
Dozens of PR firms have emerged to answer that demand. Among them:
Burson-Marsteller Edelman Hill & Knowlton Kamer-Singer Ketchum Mongovin, Biscoe, and Duchin BSMG Buder-Finn
Though world-famous within the PR industry, these are names we don't know, and for good reason. The best PR goes unnoticed. For decades they have created the opinions that most of us were raised with, on virtually any issue which has the remotest commercial value, including:
pharmaceutical drugs vaccines medicine as a profession alternative medicine fluoridation of city water chlorine household cleaning products tobacco dioxin global warming leaded gasoline cancer research and treatment pollution of the oceans forests and lumber images of celebrities, including damage control crisis and disaster management genetically modified foods aspartame food additives; processed foods dental amalgams
LESSON #1
Bernays learned early on that the most effective way to create credibility for a product or an image was by "independent third-party" endorsement. For example, if General Motors were to come out and say that global warming is a hoax thought up by some liberal tree-huggers, people would suspect GM's motives, since GM's fortune is made by selling automobiles. If however some independent research institute with a very credible sounding name like the Global Climate Coalition comes out with a scientific report that says global warming is really a fiction, people begin to get confused and to have doubts about the original issue.
So that's exactly what Bernays did. With a policy inspired by genius, he set up "more institutes and foundations than Rockefeller and Carnegie combined." (Stauber p 45) Quietly financed by the industries whose products were being evaluated, these "independent" research agencies would churn out "scientific" studies and press materials that could create any image their handlers wanted. Such front groups are given high-sounding names like:
Temperature Research Foundation International Food Information Council Consumer Alert The Advancement of Sound Science Coalition Air Hygiene Foundation Industrial Health Federation International Food Information Council Manhattan Institute Center for Produce Quality Tobacco Institute Research Council Cato Institute American Council on Science and Health Global Climate Coalition Alliance for Better Foods
Sound pretty legit don't they?
CANNED NEWS RELEASES
As Stauber explains, these organizations and hundreds of others like them are front groups whose sole mission is to advance the image of the global corporations who fund them, like those listed on page 2 above. This is accomplished in part by an endless stream of 'press releases' announcing "breakthrough" research to every radio station and newspaper in the country. (Robbins) Many of these canned reports read like straight news, and indeed are purposely molded in the news format. This saves journalists the trouble of researching the subjects on their own, especially on topics aboutwhich they know very little. Entire sections of the release or in the case of video news releases, the whole thing can be just lifted intact, with no editing, given the byline of the reporter or newspaper or TV station - and voilá! Instant news - copy and paste. Written by corporate PR firms.
Does this really happen? Every single day, since the 1920s when the idea of the News Release was first invented by Ivy Lee. (Stauber, p 22) Sometimes as many as half the stories appearing in an issue of the Wall St. Journal are based solely on such PR press releases.. (22) These types of stories are mixed right in with legitimately researched stories. Unless you have done the research yourself, you won't be able to tell the difference.
THE LANGUAGE OF SPIN
As 1920s spin pioneers like Ivy Lee and Edward Bernays gained more experience, they began to formulate rules and guidelines for creating public opinion. They learned quickly that mob psychology must focus on emotion, not facts. Since the mob is incapable of rational thought, motivation must be based not on logic but on presentation. Here are some of the axioms of the new science of PR:
* technology is a religion unto itself * if people are incapable of rational thought, real democracy is dangerous * important decisions should be left to experts * when reframing issues, stay away from substance; create images * never state a clearly demonstrable lie
Words are very carefully chosen for their emotional impact. Here's an example. A front group called the International Food Information Council handles the public's natural aversion to genetically modified foods. Trigger words are repeated all through the text. Now in the case of GM foods, the public is instinctively afraid of these experimental new creations which have suddenly popped up on our grocery shelves which are said to have DNA alterations. The IFIC wants to reassure the public of the safety of GM foods, so it avoids words like:
Frankenfoods Hitler biotech chemical DNA experiments manipulate money safety scientists radiation roulette gene-splicing gene gun random
Instead, good PR for GM foods contains words like:
hybrids natural order beauty choice bounty cross-breeding diversity earth farmer organic wholesome.
It's basic Freudian/Tony Robbins word association. The fact that GM foods are not hybrids that have been subjected to the slow and careful scientific methods of real cross-breeding doesn't really matter. This is pseudoscience, not science. Form is everything and substance just a passing myth. (Trevanian)
Who do you think funds the International Food Information Council? Take a wild guess. Right - Monsanto, DuPont, Frito-Lay, Coca Cola, Nutrasweet - those in a position to make fortunes from GM foods. (Stauber p 20)
CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD PROPAGANDA
As the science of mass control evolved, PR firms developed further guidelines for effective copy. Here are some of the gems:
- dehumanize the attacked party by labeling and name calling
- speak in glittering generalities using emotionally positive words
- when covering something up, don't use plain English; stall for time; distract
- get endorsements from celebrities, churches, sports figures, street people...anyone who has no expertise in the subject at hand
- the 'plain folks' ruse: us billionaires are just like you
- when minimizing outrage, don't say anything memorable
- when minimizing outrage, point out the benefits of what just happened
- when minimizing outrage, avoid moral issues
Keep this list. Start watching for these techniques. Not hard to find - look at today's paper or tonight's TV news. See what they're doing; these guys are good!
SCIENCE FOR HIRE
PR firms have become very sophisticated in the preparation of news releases. They have learned how to attach the names of famous scientists to research that those scientists have not even looked at. (Stauber, p 201) This is a common occurrence. In this way the editors of newspapers and TV news shows are often not even aware that an individual release is a total PR fabrication. Or at least they have "deniability," right?
Stauber tells the amazing story of how leaded gas came into the picture. In 1922, General Motors discovered that adding lead to gasoline gave cars more horsepower. When there was some concern about safety, GM paid the Bureau of Mines to do some fake "testing" and publish spurious research that 'proved' that inhalation of lead was harmless. Enter Charles Kettering.
Founder of the world famous Sloan-Kettering Memorial Institute for medical research, Charles Kettering also happened to be an executive with General Motors. By some strange coincidence, we soon have the Sloan Kettering institute issuing reports stating that lead occurs naturally in the body and that the body has a way of eliminating low level exposure. Through its association with The Industrial Hygiene Foundation and PR giant Hill & Knowlton, Sloane Kettering opposed all anti-lead research for years. (Stauber p 92). Without organized scientific opposition, for the next 60 years more and more gasoline became leaded, until by the 1970s, 90% or our gasoline was leaded.
Finally it became too obvious to hide that lead was a major carcinogen, and leaded gas was phased out in the late 1980s. But during those 60 years, it is estimated that some 30 million tons of lead were released in vapor form onto American streets and highways. 30 million tons.
That is PR, my friends.
JUNK SCIENCE
In 1993 a guy named Peter Huber wrote a new book and coined a new term. The book was Galileo's Revenge and the term was junk science. Huber's shallow thesis was that real science supports technology, industry, and progress. Anything else was suddenly junk science. Not surprisingly, Stauber explains how Huber's book was supported by the industry-backed Manhattan Institute.
Huber's book was generally dismissed not only because it was so poorly written, but because it failed to realize one fact: true scientific research begins with no conclusions. Real scientists are seeking the truth because they do not yet know what the truth is.
True scientific method goes like this:
1. form a hypothesis
2. make predictions for that hypothesis
3. test the predictions
4. reject or revise the hypothesis based on the research findings
Boston University scientist Dr. David Ozonoff explains that ideas in science are themselves like "living organisms, that must be nourished, supported, and cultivated with resources for making them grow and flourish." (Stauber p 205) Great ideas that don't get this financial support because the commercial angles are not immediately obvious - these ideas wither and die.
Another way you can often distinguish real science from phony is that real science points out flaws in its own research. Phony science pretends there were no flaws.
THE REAL JUNK SCIENCE
Contrast this with modern PR and its constant pretensions to sound science. Corporate sponsored research, whether it's in the area of drugs, GM foods, or chemistry begins with predetermined conclusions. It is the job of the scientists then to prove that these conclusions are true, because of the economic upside that proof will bring to the industries paying for that research. This invidious approach to science has shifted the entire focus of research in America during the past 50 years, as any true scientist is likely to admit.
Stauber documents the increasing amount of corporate sponsorship of university research. (206) This has nothing to do with the pursuit of knowledge. Scientists lament that research has become just another commodity, something bought and sold. (Crossen)
THE TWO MAIN TARGETS OF "SOUND SCIENCE"
It is shocking when Stauber shows how the vast majority of corporate PR today opposes any research that seeks to protect: Public Health and The Environment
It's a funny thing that most of the time when we see the phrase "junk science," it is in a context of defending something that may threaten either the environment or our health. This makes sense when one realizes that money changes hands only by selling the illusion of health and the illusion of environmental protection. True public health and real preservation of the earth's environment have very low market value.
Stauber thinks it ironic that industry's self-proclaimed debunkers of junk science are usually non-scientists themselves. (255) Here again they can do this because the issue is not science, but the creation of images.
THE LANGUAGE OF ATTACK
When PR firms attack legitimate environmental groups and alternative medicine people, they again use special words which will carry an emotional punch:
outraged sound science junk science sensible scaremongering responsible phobia hoax alarmist hysteria
The next time you are reading a newspaper article about an environmental or health issue, note how the author shows bias by using the above terms. This is the result of very specialized training.
Another standard PR tactic is to use the rhetoric of the environmentalists themselves to defend a dangerous and untested product that poses an actual threat to the environment. This we see constantly in the PR smokescreen that surrounds genetically modified foods. They talk about how GM foods are necessary to grow more food and to end world hunger, when the reality is that GM foods actually have lower yields per acre than natural crops. (Stauber p 173) The grand design sort of comes into focus once you realize that almost all GM foods have been created by the sellers of herbicides and pesticides so that those plants can withstand greater amounts of herbicides and pesticides. (The Magic Bean)
THE MIRAGE OF PEER REVIEW
Publish or perish is the classic dilemma of every research scientist. That means whoever expects funding for the next research project had better get the current research paper published in the best scientific journals. And we all know that the best scientific journals, like JAMA, New England Journal, British Medical Journal, etc. are peer-reviewed. Peer review means that any articles which actually get published, between all those full color drug ads and pharmaceutical centerfolds, have been reviewed and accepted by some really smart guys with a lot of credentials. The assumption is, if the article made it past peer review, the data and the conclusions of the research study have been thoroughly checked out and bear some resemblance to physical reality.
But there are a few problems with this hot little set up. First off, money. Even though prestigious venerable medical journals pretend to be so objective and scientific and incorruptible, the reality is that they face the same type of being called to account that all glossy magazines must confront: don't antagonize your advertisers. Those full-page drug ads in the best journals cost millions,Jack. How long will a pharmaceutical company pay for ad space in a magazine that prints some very sound scientific research paper that attacks the safety of the drug in the centerfold? Think about it. The editors aren't that stupid.
Another problem is the conflict of interest thing. There's a formal requirement for all medical journals that any financial ties between an author and a product manufacturer be disclosed in the article. In practice, it never happens. A study done in 1997 of 142 medical journals did not find even one such disclosure. (Wall St. Journal, 2 Feb 99)
A 1998 study from the New England Journal of Medicine found that 96% of peer reviewed articles had financial ties to the drug they were studying. (Stelfox, 1998) Big shock, huh? Any disclosures? Yeah, right. This study should be pointed out whenever somebody starts getting too pompous about the objectivity of peer review, like they often do.
Then there's the outright purchase of space. A drug company may simply pay $100,000 to a journal to have a favorable article printed. (Stauber, p 204)
Fraud in peer review journals is nothing new. In 1987, the New England Journal ran an article that followed the research of R. Slutsky MD over a seven year period. During that time, Dr. Slutsky had published 137 articles in a number of peer-reviewed journals. NEJM found that in at least 60 of these 137, there was evidence of major scientific fraud and misrepresentation, including:
* reporting data for experiments that were never done * reporting measurements that were never made * reporting statistical analyses that were never done
oEngler
Dean Black PhD, describes what he the calls the Babel Effect that results when this very common and frequently undetected scientific fraudulent data in peer-reviewed journals are quoted by other researchers, who are in turn re-quoted by still others, and so on.
Want to see something that sort of re-frames this whole discussion? Check out the McDonald's ads which often appear in the Journal of the American Medical Association. Then keep in mind that this is the same publication that for almost 50 years ran cigarette ads proclaiming the health benefits of tobacco. (Robbins)
Very scientific, oh yes.
KILL YOUR TV?
Hope this chapter has given you a hint to start reading newspaper and magazine articles a little differently, and perhaps start watching TV news shows with a slightly different attitude than you had before. Always ask, what are they selling here, and who's selling it? And if you actually follow up on Stauber & Rampton's book and check out some of the other resources below, you might even glimpse the possibility of advancing your life one quantum simply by ceasing to subject your brain to mass media. That's right - no more newspapers, no more TV news, no more Time magazine or Newsweek. You could actually do that. Just think what you could do with the extra time alone.
Really feel like you need to "relax" or find out "what's going on in the world" for a few hours every day? Think about the news of the past couple of years for a minute. Do you really suppose the major stories that have dominated headlines and TV news have been "what is going on in the world?" Do you actually think there's been nothing going on besides the contrived tech slump, the contrived power shortages, the re-filtered accounts of foreign violence and disaster, and all the other non-stories that the puppeteers dangle before us every day? What about when they get a big one, like with OJ or Monica Lewinsky or the Oklahoma city bombing? Do we really need to know all that detail, day after day? Do we have any way of verifying all that detail, even if we wanted to? What is the purpose of news? To inform the public? Hardly. The sole purpose of news is to keep the public in a state of fear and uncertainty so that they'll watch again tomorrow and be subjected to the same advertising.
Oversimplification? Of course. That's the mark of mass media mastery - simplicity. The invisible hand. Like Edward Bernays said, the people must be controlled without them knowing it.
Consider this: what was really going on in the world all that time they were distracting us with all that stupid vexatious daily smokescreen? Fear and uncertainty -- that's what keeps people coming back for more.
If this seems like a radical outlook, let's take it one step further: What would you lose from your life if you stopped watching TV and stopped reading newspapers altogether?
Would your life really suffer any financial, moral, intellectual or academic loss from such a decision?
Do you really need to have your family continually absorbing the illiterate, amoral, phony, uncultivated, desperately brainless values of the people featured in the average nightly TV program? Are these fake, programmed robots "normal"?
Do you need to have your life values constantly spoonfed to you?
Are those shows really amusing, or just a necessary distraction to keep you from looking at reality, or trying to figure things out yourself by doing a little independent reading?
Name one example of how your life is improved by watching TV news and reading the evening paper. What measurable gain is there for you?
PLANET OF THE APES?
There's no question that as a nation, we're getting dumber year by year. Look at the presidents we've been choosing lately. Ever notice the blatant grammar mistakes so ubiquitous in today's advertising and billboards? Literacy is marginal in most American secondary schools. Three-fourths of California high school seniors can't read well enough to pass their exit exams. ( SJ Mercury 20 Jul 01) If you think other parts of the country are smarter, try this one: hand any high school senior a book by Dumas or Jane Austen, and ask them to open to any random page and just read one paragraph out loud. Go ahead, do it. SAT scales are arbitrarily shifted lower and lower to disguise how dumb kids are getting year by year. (ADD: A Designer Disease) At least 10% have documented "learning disabilities," which are reinforced and rewarded by special treatment and special drugs. Ever hear of anyone failing a grade any more?
Or observe the intellectual level of the average movie which these days may only last one or two weeks in the theatres, especially if it has insufficient explosions, chase scenes, silicone, fake martial arts, and cretinesque dialogue. Radio? Consider the low mental qualifications of the falsely animated corporate simians hired as DJs -- seems like they're only allowed to have 50 thoughts, which they just repeat at random. And at what point did popular music cease to require the study of any musical instrument or theory whatsoever, not to mention lyric? Perhaps we just don't understand this emerging art form, right? The Darwinism of MTV - apes descended from man.
Ever notice how most articles in any of the glossy magazines sound like they were all written by the same guy? And this writer just graduated from junior college? And yet has all the correct opinions on social issues, no original ideas, and that shallow, smug, homogenized corporate omniscience, to assure us that everything is going to be fine... Yes, everything is fine.
All this is great news for the PR industry - makes their job that much easier. Not only are very few paying attention to the process of conditioning; fewer are capable of understanding it even if somebody explained it to them.
TEA IN THE CAFETERIA
Let's say you're in a crowded cafeteria, and you buy a cup of tea. And as you're about to sit down you see your friend way across the room. So you put the tea down and walk across the room and talk to your friend for a few minutes. Now, coming back to your tea, are you just going to pick it up and drink it? Remember, this is a crowded place and you've just left your tea unattended for several minutes. You've given anybody in that room access to your tea.
Why should your mind be any different? Turning on the TV, or uncritically absorbing mass publications every day - these activities allow access to our minds by "just anyone" - anyone who has an agenda, anyone with the resources to create a public image via popular media. As we've seen above, just because we read something or see something on TV doesn't mean it's true or worth knowing. So the idea here is, like the tea, the mind is also worth guarding, worth limiting access to it.
This is the only life we get. Time is our total capital. Why waste it allowing our potential, our personality, our values to be shaped, crafted, and limited according to the whims of the mass panderers? There are many truly important decisions that are crucial to our physical, mental, and spiritual well-being, decisions which require information and research. If it's an issue where money is involved, objective data won't be so easy to obtain. Remember, if everybody knows something, that image has been bought and paid for.
Real knowledge takes a little effort, a little excavation down at least one level below what "everybody knows." 1

Thanks for sending this. I 'm going to look at it very carefully. I am seeing alot of behavior recently which makes me think that may people have been somehow "Stepforded"--and I haven't been able to figure out how this has happened to people. I have had some individual reports from individuals of a perception that they were being "beamed" while sleeping--but it is all so strange--one doesn't know what to think or believe...
All I am sure of is that many, many people have been somehow "accessed" so that the normal human responses to what is happening now--which would be outrage, alarm, resistance--have been manipulated.
Thanks again,

People discerning remote manipulation by technology capable of such influence have formed protest organizations across the world.[1] [2] [3] [4] Educated society is uninformed regarding authentic documentation of the development and existence of these technologies, and unaware of the dangers. Complaint of ‘hearing voices’ and perception of other remote manipulation must receive appropriate scientific and legal investigation with protection. Professional awareness is virtually absent with eminent texts and opinion being presumptuous, without appraisal of the evidence.
Herein is substantiated:
1. Human wireless internal voice transmission and tracking technologies.
2. Reports of electroencephalographic (EEG) thought reading capacity, evidence of covert development, and remote EEG capture technology.
3. References to the use of these, or similar technologies against humans.
MICROWAVE HEARING
The first American[c] [5] to publish on the microwave hearing effect was Allan H. Frey in 1962,[6] yet radar technicians had anecdotes of microwave perception in World War II.[7] Deaf and normal subjects, even with earplugs, can hear appropriately pulsed microwaves at least up to thousands of feet from the transmitter.[8] Transmitter parameters above those producing the effect result in a severe buffeting of the head with dizziness and nausea, while parameters below the effect induce a pins and needles sensation. Peak power is the major determinant of loudness, though there is some dependence on pulse width. Pulse modulation appears to influence pitch and timbre. The effect “is the most easily and reliably replicated of low power density (microwave) illumination.” [9] Review of human and animal microwave hearing confirmation by independent investigators of the effect establishes validity.[10] [11] [12] [13] [14] Designs for scaring birds away from aircraft or other hazards by
microwave hearing[15] and induction of vertigo[16] exist.[17] [18]
While working for the Advanced Research Projects Agency at Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, Sharp and Grove discovered “receiverless” and “wireless” voice transmission. [19] Their method was simple: the negative deflections of voiceprints from recorded spoken numbers were caused to trigger microwave pulses. Upon illumination by such verbally modulated energy, the words were understood remotely. The discovery’s applications are “obviously not limited to therapeutic medicine” according to James C. Lin in Microwave Auditory Effects and Applications.[20]
A Defense Intelligence Agency review of Communist literature affirmed microwave sound and indicated voice transmission. The report states, “Sounds and possibly even words which appear to be originating intracranially (within the head) can be induced by signal modulation at very low average power densities.” [21] Among microwave weapon implications are “great potential for development into a system for disorientating or disrupting the behavior patterns of military or diplomatic personnel.” An Army Mobility Equipment Research and Development Command report affirms microwave speech transmission with applications of “camouflage, decoy, and deception operations.” [22] “One decoy and deception concept presently being considered is to remotely create noise in the heads of personnel by exposing them to low power, pulsed microwaves . . . By proper choice of pulse characteristics, intelligible speech may be created” quotes the report.
The Brunkan Patent # 4877027 “Hearing system” is a device capable of verbal microwave hearing. [23] The invention converts speech for remote introduction into the head by parabolic antenna with indication of direct microwave influence on neural activity. The microwave spectrum granted is broad: 100-10,000 MHz (0.1-10 GHz.) Pulse characteristics are essential to perception. Bursts of narrowly grouped, evenly spaced pulses determine sound intensity by their amount per unit time. Although a wide spectrum is patented, with ranges of pulse and burst duration, preferred operation has burst duration at 2 microseconds, and pulse duration at 100 nanoseconds. Operation is at 1000 MHz, which is the frequency of optimal tissue penetration.[24] Another patent application based on microwave bursts is “designed in such a way that the burst frequencies are at least virtually equal to the sound frequencies of the sounds picked up by the microphone,” though the transducer here is not
remote.[25]
Stocklin Patent # 4858612 “Hearing device” 7 affirms the microwave hearing effect. Stocklin gives exposition to the concept that a microwave component is part of neurophysiology and electroencephalogram (EEG) potentials.[26] Microwaves are considered both emitted and absorbed by nerve cell membrane proteins. Microwaves generally excite the brain[27] perhaps by influencing calcium,[28] a central ion in nerve firing.[29] Stocklin represents the auditory cortex as normally producing microwave energy, which the device simulates, thus eliciting sound sensation. Each acoustic tone is weighted for several microwave frequencies by a formula called the mode matrix, which is used to calculate best perception requirements. Observation of EEG desynchronization, delta waves, and brain wave amplitudes helps calibrate the device.[30] The lowest frequency for hearing is estimated by the cephalic index. Microwave speech transmission in this patent is unremote with the antenna over and sized
for the auditory cortex. Other patents have non-remote transducers of radiowave elicited hearing. [31] [32]
Descriptions in the above patents attribute microwave hearing to direct neural influence. However, the most accepted mechanism in review is by thermoelastic expansion,12 most likely inducing bone conducted hearing. The cochlea does appear to be involved, but not the middle ear.14 This divergence of mechanism illustrates the non-thermal/thermal controversy. US exposure standards are based on thermal effects, yet there are effects very difficult to explain by thermodynamics.13 [33] All accept thermal effects at some level, yet the thermal only school is rather dogmatic related to liability issues of commercial[34] and national security concern.[35] It must be said that the open literature regarding microwave hearing indicates a thermo-acoustic mechanism.
“Communicating Via the Microwave Auditory Effect.” is the title of a small business contract for the Department of Defense. Communication initial results are: “The feasibility of the concept has been established” using both low and high power systems.[36] A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request as to the project’s outcome met with denial on the part of the Air Force, on the grounds that disclosure “could reasonably be expected to cause damage to national security.” [37] Though the Air Force denied the FOIA disclosure, such a contract’s purpose is elaborated by the Air Force’s “New World Vistas” report: “It would also appear possible to create high fidelity speech in the human body, raising the possibility of covert suggestion and psychological direction . . . . If a pulse stream is used, it should be possible to create an internal acoustic field in the 5-15 kilohertz range, which is audible. Thus it may be possible to ‘talk’ to selected adversaries in a fashion that would be
most disturbing to them.” [38] Robert Becker, whose eminence was enough to have been twice nominated for the Nobel Prize in biological electromagnetic fields research, is more explicit: “Such a device has obvious applications in covert operations designed to drive a target crazy with “voices” or deliver undetectable instructions to a programmed assassin.” [39]
The above Army efforts had results. A microwave voice transmission non-lethal weapon is referenced in the thesaurus of the Center for Army Lessons Learned, which is a military instruction website.18 The military thesaurus entry lists analogous devices using “silent sound.” [d] [40]
ULTRASOUND TRANSMISSION OF VOICE
Internal voice capability, without discernment by others nearby. is also evident in ultrasound-based technology. Lowrey Patent # 6052336 “Apparatus and method of broadcasting audible sound using ultrasonic sound as a carrier” clearly focuses on non-lethal weapon application against crowds or directed at an individual.[41] Communication is understood as an inner voice with loss of the directional quality of sound perception. “Since most cultures attribute inner voices either as a sign of madness, or as messages from spirits or demons, both of which . . . evoke powerful emotional reactions”, quotes the Lowrey patent’s effect on people. Replaying speech, with a delay impedes talking and causes stuttering. Normal brain wave patterns can be changed (or entrained), which “may cause temporary incapacitation, intense feelings of discomfort.” This technique is detailed by Monroe Patent # 5356368 “Method of and apparatus for inducing desired states of consciousness”, with license to
Interstate Industries and involves an auditory replication of brainwave patterns to entrain the EEG as desired.[42]
Norris Patent # 5889870 “Acoustic heterodyne device and method”, directionally produces sound on interference (or heterodyning) of two ultrasound beams.[43] The cancellation leaves the carried audible sound perceivable. The effect becomes apparent particularly within cavities such as the ear canal. An individual readily understands communication across a noisy crowed room without nearby discernment. Sound can also be produced from mid-air or as reflecting from any surface.
American Technology Corporation, which licensed this patent, has an acoustic non-lethal weapons technology,[44] a cooperative agreement with the Army Research & Development Command,[45] and is working with numerous other government agencies.[46] The corporation’s Long Range Acoustic Devices (LRADTM) account for 60% of military sales, and have integration into the Navy’s situational awareness & radar surveillance systems[47] with deployment on naval vessels and fleet harbors.[48] A popular magazine writer describes the device’s inner nature of sound perception.[49] From separate references, non-lethal weapons treatments affirm sound localization and individual ultrasound effect limitation[50] with obvious lack of nearby discernment;[51] the latter by a non-lethal weapons program director. A similar ultrasound method of limiting sound to one person, Audio Spotlight is marketed, with exhibition at Boston’s Museum of Science and the Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum.[52] Both
the American Technology device and Audio Spotlight are discussed in an article with some history of ultrasound acoustics, which has origins in sonar.[53] Other acoustic influence methods may utilize ultrasound.[e] [54]
TARGET TRACKING TECHNOLOGY
The maintenance of effects on people requires obstacle penetration and target tracking. These internal voice capable energy forms penetrate obstruction and can be localized. Sound transmission through enclosures is commonly experienced. An inaudible ultrasound high intensity carrier wave is unnoticed. Solid defect inspection is one use of ultrasound, which is being developed to discern movement through walls.[55] Common technology utilizes the microwave hearing spectrum, which partly or completely encompasses cell phone,[56] [57] TV, and radar frequencies. [58] Commercial signals are not perceived, since the hearing effect requires pulsation within the limits that elicit perception. A variety of antennae localize the structurally penetrating microwave illumination with collimation or focusing.[59] [60] A patent, “compatible for mobile platforms with DEWs,” (Directed Energy Weapons) includes a modified Luneburg lens emitting parallel rays with over 50 years utilization.[61]
Hablov Patent # 5448501 “Electronic life detection system” is for microwave radar within the hearing spectrum that finds and distinguishes individuals through obstruction.[62] Therein is stated: “the modulated component of the reflected microwave signal . . . subjected to frequency analysis . . . forms a type of “electronic fingerprint“ of the living being with characteristic features, which . . . permits a distinction between different living beings.” Though this patent has use in trapped victim rescue, another Hablov et. al. Patent # 5530429 “Electronic surveillance system” detects interlopers with security emphasis.[63] Other literature describes the basic method.[64]
The Hablov et. al. patents discern people thru structures by vital organ motion, but others offer more detailed imaging. Fullerton et. al. Patent # 6400307 “System and method for intrusion detection using a time domain radar array” is such a design,[65] and is commercially available as RadarVision by Time Domain. [66] Further designs for imaging within structures include: a portable system determining suspect distance,[67] and presentations by the International Society for Optical Engineering.[68] [69] Software for displaying radar detection on a personal computer is sold.[70]
Rowan Patent # 4893815 “Interactive transector device commercial and military grade” describes the acquisition, locking onto, and tracking of human targets.[71] Stated therein: “Potentially dangerous individuals can be efficiently subdued, apprehended and appropriately detained.” The capability of “isolating suspected terrorists from their hostages . . . or individuals within a group without affecting other members of the group” is stated. Laser, radar, infrared, and acoustic sensor fusion is utilized to identify, seek, and locate targets. Locking illumination upon the target until weapons engagement accomplishes tracking. Among available non-lethal weapons is an incapacitating electromagnetic painful pulse. Another target tracking system is the Manportable Surveillance and Target Acquisition Radar by Systems & Electronics, Inc., which is capable of tracking moving targets including personnel. This system has an auto target track feature, and lists moving target detection as
12 km for a walking man.[72]
A track initiation processor acquires a target, while a data association filter maintains a tracking lock on the target.[73] An original method for target tracking is the Kalman filter. Numerous weapons guidance examples utilize similar processes and illuminate targets for tracking. Laser illumination is also used for non-human targets.[74] Other examples utilize microwave beam target recognition and weapons guidance.[75] [76] Target illumination tracking systems have nanosecond to microsecond response times. Such responses do not require a wide scan area to lock illumination upon persons at achievable speeds. At 90 miles per hour an auto travels less than 1/100 of an inch in a microsecond.
DISCUSSION
Ultrasound voice transmission technology is publicly demonstrated in museum exhibits. The numerous microwave voice transmission citations rest on a considerable foundation of microwave hearing literature. Internal voice non-lethal weapon applications are discussed in many of the citations. There are are examples of either existence or sales of non-lethal weapons based on both technologies. Numerous designs involving human location, identification, and tracking methods, have long demonstrated the feasibility of constructing devices capable of producing internal voice continuously in isolated individuals. To deny such technological capabilities in the face of extensive complaint is willfully to ignore documented development of the relevant technologies and engineering competence for complete integration.
THOUGHT READING CAPACITY
Many people who report experiencing remote behavioral influence also perceive mind reading. Thought reading capacity, or brain wave analysis word recognition, is seriously reported. Publications by a Stanford group support and report recognition of specific words from brain waves,[77] [78] [79] [80] with recent enhanced success. [81] Other investigators publish above chance magnetoencephalographic (MEG) word recognition.[82] The current publications lack reference to a 1975 US government technical report of prior results from Stanford comparable to the recent articles,[83] and an apparent Russian report of specific EEG word recognition before 1981.[84] Electroencephalographic (EEG) instant detection by syllables of “a content of category which the testee wishes to speak” quotes Kiyuna et. al. Patent # 5785653 “System and method for predicting internal condition of live body.” [85] A stated use: “the present invention may be use (sic) to detect the internal condition of
surveillance in criminal investigation” by EEG. NEC Corporation licensed this patent. Remote EEG communication with Armed Forces or clandestine application are the cited uses for Mardirossian Patent # 6011991 “Communication system and method including brain wave analysis and/or use of brain activity.” [86] This patent affirms EEG word recognition, proposes transmitter capable skin implants, utilizes neural networks (artificial intelligence), and is licensed by Technology Patents, LLC.
Activation of brain cell assemblies provides a theoretical framework[87] for the above word recognition reports, and extensive publications of averaged EEG word category differentiation. These differentiation reports themselves are consistent with specific word recognition, since their basis is by visual analysis of averaged categories, without the use of sophisticated computer programs as are essential for specific word recognition. Based on EEG/MEG responses, words can be differentiated as to length, [88] and visual nouns can be differentiated from action verbs.[89] [90] [91] [92] [93] Brain wave patterns distinguish proper names from common nouns, [94] animal names from numerals,[95] or content from function words.[96] [97] [98] [99] Face, arm, or leg action verbs are reported distinguished by brain waves as well.[100] [101] Concrete versus abstract words,[102] and unambiguous versus ambiguous noun/verbs[103] have distinctive EEG patterns.
Some of these word category differentiation reports are consistent with both the specific recognition reports, and/or the differentiation of non-verbal cognition. Based on EEG/MEG responses, words are readily distinguished from non-words,[104] [105] [106] or pictures.[107] EEG differentiation of words rated as to affective meaning such as good-bad, strong-weak, or active-passive is reported.[108] [109]
Other literature indicates EEG differentiation of completely non-verbal cognition. Emotion differentiation by EEG is patented, referencing Air Force research.[110] Movement anticipation potentials (bereitschaftspotential) and those of actual movement are detectable by EEG.[111] [112] EEG movement signals have been used to move a cursor left or right,[113] and just the imagination of movement is sufficiently distinguished by EEG to control switches,[114] or control prosthesis grasp.[115] Guiding robots through simulated rooms by EEG detection of imagining the spinning of cubes or arm rising of appropriate direction is reported.[116] [117] [118] Even more complex grasping and reaching robot arm control has been achieved by signals from implanted brain electrodes in monkeys without body arm movement.[119] A number of groups have developed procedures to detect deception based on the P300 (positive @ 300 millisec.) event related potential (ERP) from EEG.[120] [121] [122] [123]
[124] [125] A commercial system, Brain Fingerprinting,[126] which includes analysis of a late negative ERP potential and frequency analysis in addition to the P300, even asserts 100% accuracy over five separate studies.[127] [128] [129] [130] [131] [f]
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies also report differentiation of cognitive states. Different fMRI brain activation loci for face, natural and manufactured object recognition are reviewed.[132] Neural network differentiation of fMRI response to noun categories for fish, four legged animals, trees, flowers, fruits, vegetables, family members, occupations, tools, kitchen items, dwellings, and building parts is reported.[133] Distinguishing truthful from deceptive responses by fMRI is also reported.[134] [135] [136] [137] The ability to discern the state of romantic love towards an individual by fMRI has report as well.[138]
The research arm of agencies with missions to covertly acquire information would certainly develop to operational capability any technologic thought reading potential. Assertions that such development has progressed are multiple, and two are confirmed by details of the 1975 government EEG specific word recognition report, which itself is evidence of development covert to open databases.83 An International Committee of the Red Cross Symposium synopsis states EEG computer mind reading development by Lawrence Pinneo in 1974 at Stanford.[139] A letter by the Department of Defense Assistant General Counsel for Manpower, Health, and Public Affairs, Robert L. Gilliat in 1976 affirmed brain wave reading by the Advanced Research Projects Agency.[140] “Thought reading or synthetic telepathy” communications technology procurement is considered in a 1993 Jane’s[g] Special Operations Forces (SOF) article: “One day, SOF commandos may be capable of communicating through thought processes.”
[141] Descriptive terms are “mental weaponry and psychic warfare” Although contemplated in future context, the availability of a technology without adaptation to troop level requirements is implied, since anticipation of mobile deployment would have to assume prior development.
In 1976, the Malech Patent # 3951134 “Apparatus and method for remotely monitoring and altering brain waves” was granted.[142] Example of operation is at 100 and 210 MHz; frequencies penetrating obstruction. “The individual components of the system for monitoring and controlling brain wave activity may be of conventional type commonly employed in radar”; and “The system permits medical diagnosis of patients, inaccessible to physicians, from remote stations” are quotes indicating remote capacity. License is to Dorne & Margolin Inc., but now protection is expired with public domain. The Malech patent utilizes interference of 210 and 100 MHz frequencies resulting in a 110 MHz return signal, which is demodulated to give EEG waveform.
The capability of remote EEG is predicted by electromagnetic scattering theory using ultrashort pulses, which are not part of the Malech patent.[143] Ultrashort pulses are currently defined in the range of 10-12 to 10-15 second. Considering that EEG word elicited potentials are comparatively long (hundreds of milliseconds), indicates that remote radar EEG capture is adequate to word recognition, with ultrashort pulses allowing some 109 or more radar reflections in a millisecond (10-3 sec.)
The possibility of impressing an ‘experience set’ on an individual by ultrashort pulses is also contemplated.143 The above patent can alter brain waves as well as detect them. Microwave non-lethal weapon brain wave disruption[144] and behavioral change including unconsciousness[145] are known.35
The above EEG telemetry patent and ultrashort pulse method are by active radar probe. Yet a passive field extends as far as 12 feet from man as detected by a cryogenic antenna.[146] A technical article maintains this device as entirely adaptable to clandestine applications, and pointedly comments on the disappearance of physiological remote sensing literature since the 1970’s for animals and humans, while all other categories of remote sensing research greatly expanded.[147]
DISCUSSION
Complete rejection of assertions of a remote mind reading capability is just as presumptuous, in the face of complaints, as has been the dismissal of internal voice capacity. Considerable capacity to detect and differentiate mental states is evident from literature reports particularly by EEG. The fact that EEG movement imagination signals are detected for robot guidance on a voluntary unprompted basis116 117 118 suggests a similar capacity is feasible for specific EEG word identification, which has only been reported for word prompted responses. Though references to remote EEG are less, they provide plausibly exploitable mechanisms, which may be covertly developed.
LEGAL AND INTERNATIONAL REFERENCES TO BEHAVIORAL INFLUENCE TECHNOLOGIES
References to behavioral influence weapon use by government bodies and international organizations are numerous. Negotiation submissions to the United Nations Committee on Disarmament affirm the reality of microwave weapon nervous system effects.[148] European Parliament passage of resolutions calling for conventions regulating non-lethal weapons and the banning of “weapons which might enable any form of manipulation of human beings” [149] includes neuro-influence capability.[150] A resolution relates to HAARP, High Frequency Active Auroral Research Project, which has environmental consequences, and although utilizing high frequency, ionospheric extra low frequencies (ELF) emanation results. Since ELF is within brain wave frequencies the project has capacity to influence whole populations.[151] [152] President Carter’s National Security Advisor, Zbigniew Brzezinski, predicted development of such capacity.[153] Nature News reports concern by a French government panel about the
potential for thought reading and such a remote capacity.[154] An American draft law prohibiting land, sea, or space-based weapons using electromagnetic, psychotronic (behavioral influence), and sound technologies “directed at individual persons or targeted populations for the purpose of information war, mood management, or mind control” has not yet passed.[155] Russian electromagnetic standards are nearly 1000 times lower than the West, so their weapon law forbidding electromagnetic weapons exceeding Health Department parameters is strict.[156] The Russian draft law explicitly references behavioral influence non-lethal weapons, and development in several countries.[157] Resolutions by the International Union of Radio Science recognize criminal use of electromagnetic technology, though largely relevant to use against infrastructure.[158]
MICROWAVE AND ULTRASOUND USE AGAINST HUMANS
The microwave irradiation of the American Embassy in Moscow received little publicity until the winter of 1976 instillation of protective screening, but irradiation was known since 1953.34 Original frequencies were 2.56-4.1 GHz with additional intermittent 0.6-9.5 GHz signals being permanent by 1975 in a wide band frequency hopping[h] consistent pattern with one signal pulsating. The irradiation was directional from nearby buildings and modulated. Complaint to the Soviets had no avail, but the signals disappeared in January 1979 “reportedly as a result of a fire in one or more of the buildings.” [159] A 9-11 GHz signal recurred in 1988.[160] Observed frequencies are basically within the microwave hearing spectrum, and pulsation is required. Psychiatric cases occurred during the exposure period, though no epidemiologic relationship was revealed with fully a quarter of the medical records unavailable, and comparison with other Soviet Bloc posts.159 The CIA had Dr. Milton Zaret
review medical Soviet microwave literature to determine the purpose of the irradiation. He concluded the Russians “believed the beam would modify the behavior of the personnel.” [161] In 1976 the post was declared unhealthful and pay raised 20% 140
The most documented citizen microwave irradiation was of peace protesters at Greenham Common American Air Force Base in Berkshire England, who prompted investigation of unusual symptoms.[162] Radiation measurements exhibited microwaves with symptom experience up to a hundred times the background level, and rose sharply on protests nearer the base.160 Symptoms became pronounced on cruise missile transport, a protest focus.160 Recorded were wide ranging complaints: skin burns; ‘severe’ headaches; drowsiness; temporary paralysis; incoordinated speech; two late (5 mos.) spontaneous abortions; an apparent circulatory failure; and unlike usual menstrual synchronization, irregular or postmenopausal menstruation. The symptom complex fits well with electromagnetic exposure syndrome 160 It has also been reported that some of the women ‘heard voices.’[163] The base closed finally in 1991.
Criminal directed energy weapon use has been reported in Germany.[164] In a number of cases there is similarity of circumstances, complaints, and symptoms. In at least one case microwave fields have been measured with exclusion of the usual sources (cell phone towers, etc.)[165] Plans for construction of a crude device from a microwave oven are sold.164
Measurement of non-ionizing radiation fields in the vicinity of an Australian victim is described.[166] The intensity ranged from 7 mV in an adjacent room to 35 mV next to the head. The victim suffered from multiple personality disorder attributed to ritual abuse, and claimed an implant with radiological evidence.
Ultrasound behavioral influence technology use in Northern Ireland is cited [167] The device could focus on one person; and utilized ultrasound cancellation like those patented. It was employed in Vietnam by the Americans, and is known as the squawk box. Mentioned infrasound frequency (ultrasound carrier directed) is like Loos 1/25/00 patent, with psychological effects summarized as ‘spooky.’ More detail by a defense journalist is quoted: “When the two frequencies mix in the human ear they become intolerable. Some people exposed to the device are said to feel giddy or nauseous and in extreme cases they faint. Most people are intensely annoyed by the device and have a compelling wish to be somewhere else.” [168] British police inventories list the specific device, though a spokesman denied use.160
Sophisticated behavioral influence capability is confirmed by ex-intelligence officers. Julianne McKinney, Director of The National Security Alumni Electronic Surveillance Project is prominent. This is a largely classified employee victim study with internal voice transmission avowal.[169]
CONCLUSION
The logic in the prediction by Brzezinski[i] of the appearance of a more controlled and directed society dominated by a power elite willing to use the latest modern techniques for influencing behavior without hindrance by liberal democratic values is compelling.153 Potential behavioral influence targets are multiple. Since those supposedly expert regard a victim’s perceptions as psychotic, all complaints are disregarded, not to mention capability to bear witness. Targets may include anyone worth neutralization: domestic adversaries;[170] security risks, which may only comprise classified disclosures; persons witnessing serious improprieties; and those prone to committing advantageous felonies. Legality is readily circumvented by executive orders, (particularly declaration of a crisis or emergency situation), which can be sealed, and this prerogative is only accountable to co-equal branches of government as is now the case with terrorism suspects. Internal voice technology is
most applicable within the same language and culture. Space here limits more than mention of remote EEG influence capacity, hypnosis, and footnoting remote subliminal technique. Hypnotic or subliminal message presentation represent particularly insidious means of influencing thought, mood, behavior, and undermining civil liberties.
Most complainants allege public sector involvement or sub-contracted private companies.[171] Remote behavioral influence research has long been funded by the US,39 with evidence of development19 22 36 45 46 and weapons,18 44 47 48 51 though denying on national security grounds project results37 and foreign literature analyses.[172] Some thirty countries evidence active behavioral influence weapon research.[173]
Though there is some scant psychoanalytical acknowledgement,[174] current medical awareness ensures effective neutralization of the afflicted. Not all those affected are stigmatized. However phenomena of ‘hearing voices’, or perception of remote manipulation, when recounted to health professionals results in various stigmatizing diagnoses, [175] [176] totally without investigation. Determination of relevant fields around complainants is mandatory, or abatement by proven shielding of such phenomena. Professional opinions formed without excluding these technologies are negligent.
The medical community has long heard either identical or similar complaint[177] to that above delineated as known internal voice technology from numerous victims. This fact indicts the scholarship and presumption of impossibility evident in the pertinent medical literature. In addition, microwave bioeffects have considerable congruence with reported symptoms of major psychosis other than ’voices.’ [178] All of society should be disturbed at the prospect of technologic induction of voice, since the unaware subject would perceive such voices as his own natural thought, without such an assault as to provoke complaint.
It is difficult to deny the level of substantiation for the possibility that a thought reading capacity exists, even with references that support a remote basis. The logic that in the thirty years since the Pinneo work started, this capability has had full development is too sound to dismiss victim corroboration. It would have to be admitted that funding for projects by the defense and security agencies is considerably greater than for open science, and that thought reading would be a priority area. Educated democracies should not be complacent at this prospect, given the potential for political control, and existence of a remote EEG method in the public domain.

I think this is partially the reason for why the asshats that be were able to get away with selling the 9/11 fairytale, once again the TV can be a tool to educate or to enslave, purely dependent on programming (no pun intended)
How Television Controls And Programs Minds
Turn Off Your Television
By L. Wolfe
3-14-5
The subconcscious is powerful. It is aware of every particle and detail around you. But it doesn't know the difference between fact or fiction and acts on all information passing through the conscious mind as fact, and responds to it. So what do you think happens when you watch silly, moron, goofy commercials and television programs? They are training your thought processes.
Hey buddy, I'm talking to you. Yes, you, the guy sitting in front of the television. Turn down the sound a bit, so that you can hear what I am saying. Now, try to concentrate on what I am going to say. I want to talk to you about your favorite pastime. No, it's not baseball or football, although it does have something to do with your interest in spectator sports. I'm talking about what you were just doing: watching television.
Do you have any idea about how much time you spend in front of the television set? According to the latest studies, the average American now spends between five and six hours a day watching television. Let's put that in perspective: that is more time than you spend doing anything else but sleeping or working, if you are lucky enough to still have a job.
That's more time than you spend eating, more time than you spend with your wife alone, more time than with the kids. It's even worse with your children. According to these same studies, young children below school age watch more than eight hours each day. School age children watch a little under eight hours a day. In 1980, the average 20-year-old had watched the equivalent of 14 months of television in his or her brief lifetime. {That's 14 months, 24 hours a day.}
More recent figures show that the numbers have climbed: the 20-year-old has spent closer to two full years of his or her life in front of the television set. At the same time, the researchers have noted a disturbing phenomena. It seems that we Americans are getting progressively more {stupid}. They note a decline in reading and comprehension levels in all age groups tested. Americans read less and understand what they read less than they did 10 years ago, less than they have at any time since research began to study such things.
As for writing skills, Americans are, in general, unable to write more than a few simple sentences. We are among the least literate people on this planet, and we're getting worse. It's the change--the constant trendline downward--that interests these researchers. More than one study has correlated this increasing stupidity of our population to the amount of television they watch.
Interestingly, the studies found that it doesn't matter what people watch, whether it's ``The Simpsons'' or ``McNeil/Lehrer,'' or ``Murphy Brown'' or ``Nightline':' the more television you watch, the {less literate, the more stupid} you are. The growth in television watching had surprised some of the researchers. Back a decade ago, they were predicting that television watching would level off and might actually decline. It had reached an absolute saturation point.
They were right for so-called network television; figures show a steady dropoff of viewership. But that drop is more than made up for by the growth of cable television, with its smorgasbord of channels, one for almost every perversion. Especially in urban and suburban areas, Americans are hard-wired to more than 100 different channels that provide them with all news, like CNN, all movies, all comedy, all sports, all weather, all financial news and a liberal dose of straight pornography.
The researchers had also failed to predict the market penetration of first beta and then VHS video recorders; they made it possible to watch one thing and record another for later viewing. They also offered access to movies not available on networks or even cable channels as well as home videos, recorded on your own little camcorder. The proliferation of home video equipment has involved families in video-related activities which are not even considered in the cumulative totals for time Americans spend watching television.
You might not actually realize how much you are watching television. But think for a moment. When you come home, you turn the television on, if it isn't on already. You read the paper with it on, half glancing at what is on the screen, catching a bit of the news, or the plot of a show. You eat with it on, maybe in the background, listening for a score or something that happens to a character in a show you follow.
When something you are interested in, a show or basketball game, is on, the set becomes the center of attention. So your attention to what is on may vary in intensity, but there is almost no point when you are home, and inside, and have the set completely off. Isn't that right? The studies did not break down the periods of time people watched television, according to the intensity of their viewing.
But the point is still made: you compulsively turn the television on and spend a good portion of your waking hours glued to the tube. And the studies also showed that many people can't sleep without the television turned on! Brainwashing Now, I'm sure you have heard that watching too much television is bad for your health. They put stories like that on the evening news. Bad for your eyes to stare at the screen, they say. Especially bad if you sit too close. Well, I want to make another point.
We've already shown that you are addicted to the tube, watching it between six and eight hour a day. But it is an addiction that {brainwashes} you. There are two kinds of brainwashing. The one that's called {hard} brainwashing is the type you're most familiar with. You've got a pretty good image of it from some of those old Korean war movies. They take some guy, an American patriot, drag him into a room, torture him, pump him full of drugs, and after a struggle, get him to renounce his country and his beliefs. He usually undergoes a personality change, signified by an ever-present smile and blank stare.
This brainwashing is called {hard} because its methods are overt. The controlled environment is obvious to the victim; so is the terror. The victim is overwhelmed by a seemingly omnipotent external force, and a feeling of intense isolation is induced. The victim's moral strength is sapped, and slowly he embraces his torturers. It is man's moral strength that informs and orders his power of reason; without it, the mind becomes little more than a recording machine waiting for imprints. No one is saying that you have been a victim of {hard} brainwashing. But you have been brainwashed, just as effectively as those people in the movies. The blank stare? Did you ever look at what you look like while watching television?
If the angle is right, you might catch your own reflection in the screen. Jaw slightly open, lips relaxed into a smile. The blank stare of a television zombie. This is {soft} brainwashing, even more effective because its victims go about their lives unaware of what is being done to them. Television, with its reach into nearly every American home, creates the basis for the mass brainwashing of citizens, like you.
It works on a principle of {tension and release}. Create tension, in a controlled environment, increasing the level of stress. Then provide a series of choices that provide release from the tension. As long as the victim believes that the choices presented are the {only} choices available, even if they are at first glance unacceptable, he will nevertheless, ultimately seek release by choosing one of these unacceptable choices. Under these circumstances, in a brainwashing, controlled environment, such choice-making is not a ``rational'' experience. It does not involve the use of man's creative mental powers; instead man is conditioned, like an animal, to respond to the tension, by seeking release.
The key to the success of this brainwashing process is the regulation of both the tension and the perceived choices. As long as both are controlled, then the range of outcomes is also controlled. The victim is induced to walk down one of several pathways acceptable for his controllers. The brainwashers call the tension-filled environment {social turbulence}. The last decades have been full of such {social turbulence}--economic collapse, regional wars, population disasters, ecological and biological catastrophes. {Social turbulence} creates crises in perceptions, causing people to lose their bearings.
Adrift and confused, people seek release from the tension, following paths that appear to lead to a simpler, less tension-filled life. There is no time in such a process for rational consideration of complicated problems. Television is the key vehicle for presenting both the tension and the choices. It brings you the images of the tension, and serves up simple answers. Television, in its world of semi-reality, of illusion, of escape from reality, {is itself the single most important release from our tension-wracked existence.} Eight hours a day, every day, through its programming, you are being programmed.
If you doubt me, think about one important choice that you have made recently that was not in some way influenced by something that you have seen on television. I bet you can't think of one. That's how controlled you are. Who's Doing It But don't take my word for it. Ten years ago we spoke to a man from a think tank called the Futures Group in Connecticut. Hal Becker had spent more than 20 years of his life manipulating the minds of the leaders of our society. Listen to what he said: {``I know the secret of making the average American believe anything I want him to. Just let me control television.
Americans are wired into their television sets. Over the last 30 years, they have come to look at their television sets and the images on the screen as reality. You put something on television and it becomes reality. If the world outside the television set contradicts the images, people start changing the world to make it more like the images and sounds of their television.
Because its influence is so great, so pervasive, it has become part of our lives. You lose your sense of what is being done to you, but your mind is being shaped and moulded.''} ``Your mind is being shaped and moulded.'' If that doesn't sound like brainwashing, I don't know what is. Becker speaks with the elan of a network of brainwashers who have been programming your lives, especially since the advent of television as a ``mass medium'' in the late 1940s and early 1950s.
This network numbers several tens of thousands worldwide. Occasionally one appears on the nightly news to tell you what {you} are thinking, by reporting the latest ``opinion polls.'' But for the most part, they work behind the scenes, speaking to themselves and writing papers for their own internal distribution. And though they work for many diverse groups, these brainwashers are united by a common world view and common method. It is the world view of a small elite, whose financial and political power rests in institutions that pass this power on from generation to generation.
They view the common folk like yourself as little better than beasts of burden to be controlled and manipulated by a semi-feudal international oligarchy, whose wealth, power and bloodlines entitle them to rule. One of the oligarchy's institutions for manipulation of populations is located in a suburb of London called Tavistock. The Tavistock Institute for Human Relations, which also has a branch in Sussex, England, is the ``mother'' for much of this extended network, of which Becker is a member. They are the specialists in {both} hard and soft brainwashing.
The Tavistock Institute is the psychological warfare arm of the British Royal household. The oligarchs behind Tavistock, and similar outfits in the United States and elsewhere, are determined that you should be a television addict, sucking up a daily dose of brainwashing from the ``tube;'' that is how they control you. Like his fellow brainwashers, Becker prides himself in knowing the minds of his victims.
He calls them ``saps.'' Man, he told an interviewer, should be called ``homo the sap.'' ``Soft'' brainwashing by television works through power of suggestion. Television watching creates a state of drugged-like oblivion to outside reality. The mind, its perceptions dulled by habituated viewing, is ready to accept any new illusion of reality as presented on the tube. The mind, in its drugged-like stupor of television watching, is prepared to accept that the images that television {suggests} as reality {are} reality. It will then struggle to form fit a contradictory reality into television image, just as Becker claims. Another Tavistock brainwasher, Fred Emery, who studied television for 25 years, confirms this.
The television signal itself, he found, puts the viewer in this state of drugged-like oblivion. Emery writes: ``Television as a media consists of a constant visual signal of 50 half-frames per second. Our hypotheses regarding this essential nature of the medium itself are:
``1) The constant visual stimulus fixates the viewer and causes the habituation of response. The prefrontal and association areas of the cortex are effectively dominated by the signal, the screen.
``2) The left cortical hemisphere--the center of visual and analytical calculating processes--is effectively reduced in its functioning to tracking changing images on the screen.
``3) Therefore, provided, the viewer keeps looking, he is unlikely to reflect on what he is doing and what he is viewing. That is, he will be aware, but unaware of his awareness....
``In other words, television can be seen partly as the technological analogue of the hypnotist.''
The key to making the brainwashing work is the {repetition of suggestion} over time. With people watching the tube for 6 to 8 hours a day, there is plenty of time for such repeated suggestion. Some Examples Let's look at an example to make things a bit clearer. Think back about 20 years ago. Think about what you thought about certain issues of the day. Think about those same issues today; notice how you seemed to change {your} mind about them, to become more tolerant of things you opposed vehemently before.
It's your television watching that changed your mind, or to use Becker's terms, ``shaped your perceptions.''
Twenty years ago, most people thought that the lunacy that is now called environmentalism, the idea that animals and plants should be protected on an equal basis with human life, was screwy. It went against the basic concept of Christian civilization that man is a higher species than and distinct from the animals, and that it is man, by virtue of his being made in the image of the living God, whose life is sacred.
That was 20 years ago. But now, many people, maybe even you, seem to think otherwise; there are even laws that say so. This contrary, anti-human view of man being no more than equal to animals and plants was inserted into our consciousness by the suggestion of television. Environmental lunacy was scripted into network television shows, into televised movies, and into the news. It started slowly, but picked up steam. Environmental spokesmen were increasingly seen in the favorable glow of television.
Those who opposed this view were shown in an unfavorable way. It was done over time, with repetition. If you weren't completely won over, you were made tolerant of the views of environmental lunatics whose statements were morally and scientifically unsound. Let's take a more recent example: the war against Iraq. That was a war made for television. In fact, it was a war {organized} through television. Think back a year: How were Americans prepared for the eventual slaughter of Iraqi women and children? Images on the screen: Saddam Hussein, on one side, Hitler on the other.
The images repeated in newscasts, backed up by scenes of alleged atrocities in Kuwait. Then the war itself: the video-game like images of ``smart'' weapons killing Iraqi targets. Finally, the American military commander-in-chief Gen. Norman Schwartzkopf, conducting a final press briefing that was consciously orchestrated to resemble the winning Superbowl coach describing his victory.
Those were the images that overwhelmed our population. Only now, months later, do we find out that the images had nothing to do with reality. The Iraqi ``atrocities'' in Kuwait and elsewhere were exaggerated. Our ``smart'' weapons like the famous Patriot anti-missile system didn't really work.
Oh, and the casualty figures: it seems that we murdered far more women and children than we did soldiers. Hardly a ``glorious victory.'' But while it might have made a difference if people knew this while the war was being planned or in progress, polls show that Americans no longer find the war or any stories about it ``interesting.''
Looking at the question more broadly, where did your children get most of their values, if not from what they saw on television? Parents might counteract the influence of the infernal box, but they could not overcome it. How could they, if they themselves have been brainwashed by the same box and if their children spend more time with it than them? Studies show that most of television programming is geared to a less than 5th grade comprehension level; parents, like you, are themselves being remade in the infantile images of the television screen. All of society becomes more infantile, more easily controllable.
As Emery explains: {``We are proposing that television as a simple constant and repetitive and ambiguous visual stimulus, gradually closes down the central nervous system of man.''} Becker holds a similar view of the effect of television on American's ability to think:
{``Americans don't really think--they have opinions and feelings. Television creates the opinion and then validates it.''}
Nowhere is this clearer than with politics. Television tells Americans what to think about politicians, restricting choices to those acceptable to the oligarchs whose financial power controls networks and major cable channels. It tells people what has been said and what is ``important.'' Everything else is filtered out. You are told who can win and who can't. And few people have the urge to look behind the images in the screen, to seek content and truth in ideas and look for a high quality of leadership.
Such an important matter as choosing a president becomes the same as choosing a box of laundry detergent: a set of possibilities, whose limits are determined, by the images on the screen. You are given the appearance of freedom of choice, but that you have neither freedom nor real choice. That is how the brainwashing works. ``Are they brainwashed by the tube,'' said Becker to the interviewer. ``
It is really more than that. I think that people have lost the ability to relate the images of their own lives without television intervening to tell them what it means. That is what we really mean when we say that we have a wired society.'' Turn It Off! That was ten years ago. It has gotten far worse since then.
In coming issues, we will show you the brainwashers' vision of a hell on earth and how television is being used to get us there; we will discuss television programming, revealing how it has helped produce what is called a ``paradigm'' shift in values, creating an immoral society; we will explain how the news is presented and how its presentation has been used to destroy the English language; we will discuss the mass entertainment media, showing who controls it and how; we will deal with America's addiction to spectator sports and show how that too has helped make you passive and stupid; and finally, we will show where we are headed, if we can't break our addiction to the tube.
So, after what I just told you, what do say, buddy? Do you want to stay stupid and let your country go to hell in a basket? Why don't you just walk over to the set and turn it off. That's right, completely off. Go on, you can do it. Now isn't that better? Don't you feel a little better already? You've just taken the first step in deprogramming yourself. It wasn't that hard, was it? Until we speak again, try to keep it off. Now that will be a bit harder.

On May 2 2004, I wrote a very similar article to this one, about brainwashing and the Tavistock Institute. It was the first in my Couch Patriot series (http://www.rense.com/general52/couch.htm).
Their subversion of thought not just in America but around the world is well known. Is it any wonder that satellite dish television is being brought to the most remote corners of the earth, even if a solar panel is required ?
Although it's easy to focus just on brainwashing of Americans, in reality the entire world is at stake.

In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot.
