Some might say that this is off topic, But if one looks deep enough into the bigger picture, One will find that it is all holistically connected.

FDA tyranny and the censorship of cherry health facts (opinion)
Permalink: _http://www.NewsTarget.com/019366.html_
(http://www.NewsTarget.com/019366.html)

In the past, I jokingly said that broccoli might someday be banned as soon
as the public begins to learn about the potent anti-cancer chemicals found in
the vegetable. That’s because, as I jested, the FDA wouldn’t want people
treating their own cancer with the anti-cancer medicines found in cruciferous
vegetables. But it seems that my joke wasn’t so funny after all, because the FDA
is now threatening cherry growers with raids to confiscate their cherries,
haul them into court, and put them out of business for doing one simple thing
that _the FDA_ (http://www.webseed.com/the_FDA.html) cannot stand to allow:
The distribution of scientific information describing the _health benefits_
(http://www.webseed.com/health_benefits.html) of cherries.

On October 17, 2005, the FDA sent warning letters to 29 companies that market
_cherries_ (http://www.webseed.com/cherries.html) . In these letters, the
FDA threatened these companies with legal action and told them they had to
remove the scientific information on their websites that described the health
benefits of the natural medicines found in cherries, such as the anthocyanins
that reduce _inflammation_ (http://www.webseed.com/inflammation.html) for
arthritis sufferers. According to the warped FDA logic that now seems to be
standard, when cherry growers post scientific information about the health
benefits of their cherries, they magically transform their cherries into drugs and
therefore, as drugs, they must have FDA approval in order to sell them in the
United States. _Continued........_ (http://www.NewsTarget.com/019366.html)

Administration Is Singing More Than One Tune on Spanish Version of Anthem By Peter Baker
Washington Post Staff Writer
Wednesday, May 3, 2006; Page A06

President Bush declared last week that the national anthem should be sung in English not Spanish, but he evidently never told his own government or campaign organizations.
The State Department posts four Spanish versions of "The Star-Spangled Banner" on its Web site, and accounts from the 2000 election suggest that the song was at times performed in Spanish at Bush campaign events. Critics even turned up one reference to Bush himself singing the anthem in Spanish on the trail, but there was no confirmation.

The Immigration Debate Immigration reform proposals before Congress have sparked a nationwide political debate.

The furor over a newly released Spanish version of the anthem has underscored once again the power of symbols in American politics. At a time when the immigration debate in Washington has divided Republicans on Capitol Hill, drawn hundreds of thousands of protesters into the streets and triggered a nationwide boycott, all sides are scrutinizing the words and records of the president and other politicians for signs of inconsistency.
Bush waded into the matter last week after British producer Adam Kidron issued " Nuestro Himno ." Responding to a reporter, Bush said: "I think the national anthem ought to be sung in English. And I think people who want to be a citizen of this country ought to learn English, and they ought to learn to sing the national anthem in English."
But Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice chose not to repeat his formulation Sunday on CBS's "Face the Nation." "I've heard the national anthem done in rap versions, country versions, classical versions," she said. "The individualization of the American national anthem is quite underway."
And there seems little evidence that the matter had concerned Bush before. The Center for American Progress, a liberal group run by Clinton chief of staff John D. Podesta, posted on its blog a reference to Bush singing the anthem in Spanish. In his book, "American Dynasty," Kevin Phillips wrote that Bush "would drop in at Hispanic festivals and parties, sometimes joining in singing 'The Star-Spangled Banner' in Spanish, sometimes partying with a 'Viva Bush' mariachi band flown in from Texas."
White House spokesmen and former campaign operatives said they could not recall whether that happened, though given the level of Bush's Spanish proficiency, they seemed dubious.
"Honestly, I don't remember him ever singing the national anthem in Spanish," said Leonard Rodriguez, who was national director of Hispanic Coalition for Bush/Cheney 2000. "I can't see any of his advisers recommending it." But he added: "They may have played it. That's certainly in the realm of possibility." And Rodriguez said he does not recall Bush ever objecting to it.
The Center for American Progress also cited a news report that the anthem was performed in Spanish by singer Jon Secada at a 2001 inauguration event, but Bush aides and most news accounts said he actually sang a Spanish version of "America the Beautiful."
Secada later performed "The Star-Spangled Banner" at the White House, in May 2001, but in English, according to the White House.

Subject: Re: Dear Janos was Not "anti-Semites" -- "Voltairians" --

911 and every other major event throughout history that has affected
mankind adversly was planned by the illuminati decades and centuries
in advance according to Alan Watt. Watt, IMHO has extraordinary
insights that should be investigated by everyone. He's pleading for us
to wake up to how we've been manipulated and used by the would be
masters of the universe by implanting beliefs and mind
control(Tavistock, i.e.)

By laying blame on zionists, Jews, Jesuits, etc, we're losing sight of
the forest for the trees. All they are are tools used to meet their
agenda, namely the NWO, a dream of these psychopaths for centuries.
Please listen and read what Watt has to say for mankinds sake and yours.

http://www.cuttingthroughthematrix.com/

Snip from book section:


Sample Page from Book 2

As a preface to understanding, I think it necessary to go through the
standard phases of "waking up."

1. An Individual vaguely perceives something is wrong in his/her life.
This takes the form of fatigue at trying to "keep up" with real or
imaginary crisis, encroachment of government into every aspect of
life, increasing taxationand so on. Sometimes it takes the loss of
work and the realization that the safety net they contributed to has a
gaping hole in the middle.

2. The individual discovers that justice is a joke and that all control
mechanisms go up like a pyramid, taking their property, taxes etc.
with it. This wealth then is distributed to "help bail-out" or "prop-up"
"failing" transnational corporations. Left-overs are channeled via
Overseas Developement Corporations to "developing nations,"
where the loot is pocketed by front-men and their beaurocrats.
Crumbs filter down to social services, which, after being guzzled by
directors and staff, leave little for the needy except bundles of forms,
in triplicate, of course.

3. The individual looks around for others already exposing "the
conspiracy." These established champions inform him which
"conspiracy" books to read. Having then done so, the individual
begins to "expose" the corruption, first to friends, then when
friendless, he either publishes what he has gleaned or becomes
paranoid and withdraws from society altogether.

Why does the waking-up process fail to spread quickly through
society?

1. He is terribly naive. He believes the massive corruption "just
happened" to begin in his own lifetime, otherwise mummy or daddy
or teacher would have warned him. It does not occur to him that his
Parents, teachers etc. were as conditioned as he was.

2. Most people do not wish to know. They, like farm animals, have
been domesticated. Wild animals (original) have natural instincts of
self-preservation. They sense the evil intentions of predators and
they survive by trusting their instincts. Wild herds do not "hang
around" when one or more members drops dead. Specially bred
sheep do.

3. Pavlovian conditioning/response indoctrination has been fed to
every individual, through schooling. The media then takes over.
Peoples' opinions are simply sound-bites from news, talk-shows or
quotes from glossy magazines.

4. Trust replaces the instinct of self-preservation. It over-rides
memory and logic. Controllers and shepherds encourage trust.

5. When threatened with loss of possessions, property, access to
health care, etc., people turn to government(predators) for help,
or/and organized religion. Should an individual persist in pushing for
his "rights," he will be removed from society and placed in a
psychiatric hospital or prison on any number of pretexes. The
alternative is death by "accident," or shot by police while 'resisting
arrest.'

expose that 9-11 was an inside job, but the entire hidden power

they're exposed. Zionism is undoubtably the world's cancer, but we
should be wise enough to remove it surgically, and precisely. Although
there will be some solidarity amoung some Jews, the vast majority of

attacks in New York and Washington) in order to instigate genocidal
war in the Mideast and Central Asia. I point to a subset of Zionists.
There is also a larger sub-group of Jews (including both Zionists and
Non-Zionists) who realize that September 11, 2001 was a mass-murder
provocateur black-op yet who, because of the solidarity of Jew for
Jew, feel compelled to cover-up for the Zionist perpetrators despite
the latter having committed mass-murder terror provoking genocidal
wars and a wave of police state totalitarianism around the world.

crimes on behalf of groups. In other words the powerful deviant

individuals murder for love -- this does not mean that Zionism is
guilty any more than murder for a lover means that love is guilty.
Zionist is a set of traditions -- cultural practices -- that are

Subject: Re: thermite cut......ye shall awake to a sense of your awful situat

Like a modern-day Galileo or Luther, Jones has exposed the flaws in
the official version, "a myth," he says, "which has taken on
religious proportions.

"There is a clear disconnect between what the official reports say
happened and what actually happened," Jones says. "A scientific
theory has to be falsifiable. It must be able to be tested and
challenged.

"The data stands on its own. Where are the honest scientists?" Jones
asks. "Take the blinders off and find out what happened."

The official 9-11 reports are what Jones calls "pathological
science," in which investigators ignore all evidence that
contradicts the conclusion they have been asked to prove.

AFP contacted three scientists who support the official theory to
ask if they would review Jones's paper.

Thomas W. Eagar of MIT refused to even look at the paper and said
there is no evidence of molten metal pouring from the WTC.
Challenged with the
evidence, he hung up the phone.

Zdenek P. Bazant of Northwestern University submitted his fire-
induced collapse theory to the American Society of Civil Engineers
(ASCE) two days after 9-11, without examining any evidence. Asked if
he would review Jones's paper, Bazant also refused, "I have seen
Jones's fiction before. If you want my private opinion, it is
nothing but sensationalism," he said. "His purported refutation of
my analysis is baseless."

Asked to simply look at five photos in an e-mail showing the
cascading molten metal and core columns, which appear to have been
cut with thermite, Bazant responded, "I do not have time."

Abolhassan Astaneh-Asl, an Iranian-born professor at Berkeley, who
was a member of the ASCE team studying the WTC collapse, also
refused to look at Jones's paper.

"I will not be able to find time to review the material that you
have sent me," said Astaneh-Asl.

Evidence of Thermite Uncovered at World Trade Center

By Christopher Bollyn

PROVO, Utah�"In times of universal deceit, telling the truth is a
revolutionary act," said the British writer George Orwell. Orwell's
words aptly describe the situation of Steven E.

Jones, a soft-spoken professor at Brigham Young University (BYU) who
has turned his attention to the unanswered questions of the Sept. 11
attacks.
Provo, the home of BYU, is America's most conservative city in the
most Republican county. With more than 85 percent of the population
supporting President George W.

Bush, Provo seems an unlikely place for any "revolutionary act"�
unless that act were simply telling the truth.

On the picturesque campus of the private Mormon university,
surrounded by snow-capped peaks, Jones teaches physics and carries
out research in the fields of metal-catalyzed fusion, solar energy
and archeometry, or the scientific study and analysis of artifacts.

As an archeometrist, Jones applies physics to explain events in the
past. Since last year when he became aware of the unanswered
questions of 9-11, he has focused his attention on the available
data and evidence.

The unexplained presence of molten metal at the World Trade Center
(WTC) puzzled Jones and he contacted this writer to confirm the
reports first published in American Free Press in 2002. These
reports came from two men involved in the removal of the rubble:
Peter Tully of Tully Construction of Flushing, N.Y., and Mark
Loizeaux of Controlled Demolition, Inc. of Phoenix, Md.

Tully told AFP that he had seen pools of "literally molten
steel" in the rubble.

Loizeaux confirmed this: "Yes, hot spots of molten steel in the
basements," he said, "at the bottom of the elevator shafts of the
main towers, down seven levels."

The molten steel was found "three, four, and five weeks later, when
the rubble was being removed," he said. He confirmed that molten
steel was also found at WTC 7, which mysteriously collapsed in the
late afternoon.

SERIOUS INVESTIGATION

Last November, Jones presented a draft which has since evolved into
a 52-page paper. His paper begins with an appeal for "a serious
investigation of the hypothesis that WTC 7 and the Twin Towers were
brought down . . .through the use of pre-positioned cutter-charges."

Jones presents evidence that an "aluminothermic process"
called "thermite" was used to weaken and sever the 47 massive core
columns that held up the towers. The official version fails to
explain how these critical columns failed. When ignited, thermite, a
combination of finely ground aluminum and iron oxide (rust), cuts
through steel like a "warm knife through butter," Jones said,
especially when mixed with 2 percent sulfur. The resulting
combination, called "thermate," lowers the melting point of steel.

Thermite was patented in Germany by Hans Goldschmidt in the late
1800s. Extremely high temperatures are produced when the aluminum
and iron oxide react. The reaction produces temperatures of more
than 2,500 degrees Celsius (4,500 degrees Fahrenheit) as the ferric
oxide is reduced to molten iron. Iron melts at 1,535 degrees
Celsius. The reaction causes the oxygen from the ferric oxide to
bond with the aluminum, producing aluminum oxide, molten iron, and
approximately 750 kilocalories per gram of thermite. The aluminum
oxide is a whitish smoke.

AFP recently attended a presentation of Jones's 9-11 research at
BYU. Jones began with footage of the unexplained collapse of Larry
Silverstein's 47-story building, WTC 7, at 5:25 p.m.

When Jones was interviewed by Tucker Carlson of MSNBC, the producers
refused to air this short but crucial video segment.

AFP observed thermite reactions in Jones's physics class. As a
colleague combined the powdered rust and aluminum in a mounted
ceramic flowerpot, Jones filmed the reaction. A paper wick with
magnesium ignited the sand-like mixture.

The reaction was intense, nearly explosive, and white flames and
pieces of metal flew out of the pot. From the bottom poured a white-
hot liquid�pure molten iron. After a few seconds a glowing yellow-
hot piece of iron was lifted with tongs and shown to the students.

Because thermite does not require air and can react underwater, it
may explain the persistent hot spots that were unaffected by a
continuous dousing from fire hoses. The white-hot molten iron and
slag can itself prolong and extend the heating and incendiary action.

"As of 21 days after the attack, the fires were still burning and
molten steel was still running," Leslie Robertson, structural
engineer responsible for the design of the WTC, told fellow
engineers.

Footage taken by WABC-TV of the burning South Tower at 9:53 a.m.,
immediately before the building collapsed, reveals large amounts of
white-hot molten metal, presumably iron, pouring from the 81st floor
of the east corner.

The amount of spilling molten metal suggests a pool of molten iron
was in that area of the building. While some have suggested that the
molten metal was aluminum, this is easily disproved by the fact that
molten aluminum appears silver-gray in daylight. The only possible
explanation is that the white-hot metal gushing from the South Tower
was molten iron and had been produced by a very large amount of
thermite.

The amount of molten metal seen falling would indicate that tons of
thermite had been used on that floor. From the video footage it
appears that several cubic yards of molten metal fell, which, if
iron, would have weighed over eight tons.

Jones's explosive paper is accessible on his web page
(physics.byu.edu) and will be published in a forthcoming book by
David Ray Griffin and Peter
Dale Scott. Reading Jones' paper on-line allows the reader to review
the photographic/video evidence.

"I consider the official FEMA, NIST, and 9-11 Commission reports,"
Jones writes, which claim "that fires plus impact damage alone
caused complete collapses of all three buildings."

He challenges the official explanation and provides evidence to
support the controlled-demolition hypothesis, which, he says "is
suggested by the available data, testable and falsifiable."

Jones notes that the hypothesis that the towers were demolished by
explosives "has not been analyzed in any of the reports funded by
the U.S. government."

Ignoring the evidence of the controlled-demolition hypothesis, the
FEMA-sponsored study of 2002 concluded, "The specifics of the fires
in WTC 7 and how they caused the building to collapse remain
unknown."

Furthermore, the official report found that the fire-induced
collapse hypothesis "has only a low probability of occurrence."

The engineers concluded that "further research, investigation, and
analyses are needed to resolve this issue."

"That is precisely the point," Jones says, "further investigation
and analyses are indeed needed, including serious consideration of
the controlled-demolition hypothesis which is neglected in all of
the government reports."

The fact that the 9-11 Commission report does not even mention the
collapse of WTC 7 "is a striking omission of data highly relevant to
the question of what really happened on 9-11," he said.

FURTHER INVESTIGATION

Further investigation is what Jones is trying to get other
scientists to do. One would think that the mainstream media would be
interested in a highly respected physicist answering questions about
9-11, but that has not been the case. The controlled media and
supporters of the official version completely avoid Jones.

Like a modern-day Galileo or Luther, Jones has exposed the flaws in
the official version, "a myth," he says, "which has taken on
religious proportions.

"There is a clear disconnect between what the official reports say
happened and what actually happened," Jones says. "A scientific
theory has to be falsifiable. It must be able to be tested and
challenged.

"The data stands on its own. Where are the honest scientists?" Jones
asks. "Take the blinders off and find out what happened."

The official 9-11 reports are what Jones calls "pathological
science," in which investigators ignore all evidence that
contradicts the conclusion they have been asked to prove.

AFP contacted three scientists who support the official theory to
ask if they would review Jones's paper.

Thomas W. Eagar of MIT refused to even look at the paper and said
there is no evidence of molten metal pouring from the WTC.
Challenged with the
evidence, he hung up the phone.

Zdenek P. Bazant of Northwestern University submitted his fire-
induced collapse theory to the American Society of Civil Engineers
(ASCE) two days after 9-11, without examining any evidence. Asked if
he would review Jones's paper, Bazant also refused, "I have seen
Jones's fiction before. If you want my private opinion, it is
nothing but sensationalism," he said. "His purported refutation of
my analysis is baseless."

Asked to simply look at five photos in an e-mail showing the
cascading molten metal and core columns, which appear to have been
cut with thermite, Bazant responded, "I do not have time."

Abolhassan Astaneh-Asl, an Iranian-born professor at Berkeley, who
was a member of the ASCE team studying the WTC collapse, also
refused to look at Jones's paper.

"I will not be able to find time to review the material that you
have sent me," said Astaneh-Asl.

Guerrilla Impeachment: At the Pump
Message from the Impeach Bush Coalition.
Spread the word!
While standing at the gas pump today, watching the dollars and cents
spinning far too fast in comparison to the gallons dial, I stood there
muttering to myself, "What the hell will it take to impeach
this criminal son of a bitch?"
Then it dawned on me.
These days, there is no better place to get your point across to the
average American than while he/she is standing there at the gas pump.
Aren't we all muttering at the gas pump these days?
So here is my (latest) call to arms.
Let's reach the American gas consumer at the moment he/she is most open
to our message, while he/she is pumping gas.
How?
Guerilla Advertising!! A nicely placed

"Impeach" sticker,

Right next to the "Dollars and Cents" dial on your local gas pump
will do the trick.
It's one word. "Impeach."

But sitting there on the Exxon gas pump, juxtaposed with the cost
of fuel, it really says it all, doesn't it? � Great idea!! Let's do
it!
And for pete's sake, the oil companies have been shitting on the
environment without any conscience, so don't feel too bad about putting
one sticker on their gas pump. Sometimes disobedience is required.
It's damn easy. Print out a sheet of "Impeach" stickers on your
computer. Put the sheet in your car. Everytime you stop to fill your
tank up with gas, place an "Impeach" sticker on the pump. And don't
forget to take your receipt!
If anything, it should provide you with a bit of catharsis.

When War-Making Criminals Get What They Deserve

Cathy Garger

Today the Senate is prepared to vote on a bill that will rack up an additional $67.6 Billion for making war upon Afghanistan and Iraq(). That "supplemental" money, however, will just keep the eager war-makers in just enough Depleted Uranium, Grenades, and Conventional Mines (all types) only to last another five months, till September 30.

That $67.6 Billion winds up coming out to be a cost of $13.52 Billion a month or $450.6 Million A DAY. Apparently, Congress agrees with the President that it is important to find the money to blow up innocent Iraqi citizens.

So let us not deceive ourselves for a minute. Afghanistan and Iraq's not just all about W, Rummy, and Condi. We must give credit where credit is due. After all, our Congress fully loves war, too.

Meanwhile, coked-out cowboy, Hitler the Second, is prepared to veto the bill. No, he didn't have a change of heart about killing innocent Middle-Easterners! Since H.R. 4939 includes $14 Billion for things that would actually *help* American citizens? Line items such as assistance for our farmers and other local (i.e. non-Military, non-consequential) concerns like helping the homeless residents of New Orleans re-build their homes will need to get dumped.

Sure glad our "representatives" in the US Capital have got their priorities straight! Job Number One, after all, always is: Make sure that the unstable American President gets his money to kill Iraqis and Afghans first, either by direct fire or via slower death by US uranium munitions inhalation. If - and only if - there are any monies left after the President and his Pentagon pals have their war fun, dole out the crumbs to poor American slobs (think homeless New Orleans survivors, hungry farmers, and sick veterans) back home.

I have only one question. I can't help but wonder how many more such "emergency" and "supplemental" war funding appropriations bills we are going to allow Congress to pass before the War Crimes Trials for these criminals who've seized control of the US federal government begin?

Does everyone by now pretty much agree that the red, white and blue has waged just about enough illegal nuclear wars upon humanity? And by war criminals, we're not just talking the top military brass, the cabinet, and the rest of the administration. When we make up our list of perpetrators who have committed their vile and unspeakably heinous crimes against humanity, we must not forget about Congress, too. After all, this administration and the Pentagon could never have engaged in fighting these wars upon innocent people without the constant flow of money that is lavished upon them.

Isn't it high time that we stopped talking about "Impeach W" and instead get on with the business of doling out justice for our Domestic Terrorists who have hijacked our government? And if we don't stop the American hijackers, we sure as hades know that they're certainly not going to do us the favor of policing themselves and walking into the prisons on their own accord.

Mayday, mayday good citizens watching Florence Henderson show her nasty self on Reality TV. We've got a government to take back, so turn off your tv sets till the criminals are safely locked up behind bars (where they can do you, me, and the good Iraqi people no further harm).

Those who vote for these illegal wars are going to have to share in the "justice" befitting war criminals who are, after all, accessory to untold numbers of cold-blooded murders. Yes, dark-skinned people from the Middle East do "count" as human beings, too, Mr. President.

And if there is any "justice" left in this world, let us only hope and pray that one day, the War Crimes Trials for our home-grown "evil doers" make the Nuremberg Trials look like a bloody picnic in the park.

Well I thought I would share this with you all..After reading this I
sent it to our House Represntive Mike Conway..Not that it will do any
good but want know if I don't try. It's better than complaing all the
time. Maybe you could send it to yours?
Always a friend;
Deb :) ~j~
I don't know how everybody else feels about it, but to me I think
Hispanic people in this country, legally or illegally, made a huge
public relations mistake with their recent demonstrations. I don't blame
anybody in the world for wanting to come to the United States of
America, as it is a truly wonderful place. But when the first thing you
do when you set foot on American soil is illegal it is flat out wrong
and I don't care how many lala land left heads come out of the woodwork
and start trying to give me sensitivity lessons. I don't need
sensitivity lessons; in fact I don't have anything against Mexicans! I
just have something against criminals and anybody who comes into this
country illegally is a criminal and if you don't believe it try coming
into America from a foreign country without a passport and see how far
you get.
What disturbs me about the demonstrations is that it's tantamount to
saying, "I am going to come into your country even if it means breaking
your laws and there's nothing you can do about it." It's an "in your
face" action and speaking just for me I don't like it one little bit and
if there were a half dozen pairs of gonads in Washington bigger than
English peas it wouldn't be happening. Where are you, you bunch of lily
livered, pantywaist, forked tongued, sorry excuses for defenders of The
Constitution? Have you been drinking the water out of the Potomac again?
And even if you pass a bill on immigration it will probably be so pork
laden and watered down that it won't mean anything anyway. Besides, what
good is any other law going to do when you won't enforce the ones on the
books now?
And what ever happened to the polls guys? I thought you folks were the
quintessential finger wetters. Well you sure ain't paying ;any attention
to the polls this time because somewhere around eighty percent of
Americans want something done about this mess, and mess it is and
getting bigger everyday. This is no longer a problem; it is a dilemma
and headed for being a tragedy. Do you honestly think that what happened
in France with the Muslims can't happen here when the businesses who
hire these people finally run out of jobs and a few million
disillusioned Hispanics take to the streets?
If you, Mr. President, Congressmen and Senators, knuckle under on this
and refuse to do something meaningful it means that you care nothing for
the kind of country your children and grandchildren will inherit. But I
guess that doesn't matter as long as you get re-elected. Shame on you.
One of the big problems in America today is that if you have the nerve
to say anything derogatory about any group of people (except Christians)
you are going to be screamed at by the media and called a racist, a
bigot and anything else they can think of to call you. Well I've been
pounded by the media before and I'm still rockin' and rollin' and when
it comes to speaking the truth I fear not. And the truth is that the
gutless, gonad-less, milksop politicians are just about to sell out the
United States of America because they don't have the intestinal
fortitude to stand up to the face reality. And reality is that we would
never allow any other group of people to have 12 million illegals in
this country and turn around and say, "Oh it's ok, ya'll can stay here
if you'll just allow us to slap your wrist."
And I know that some of you who read this column are saying "Well what's
wrong with that?" I'll tell you what's wrong with it. These people could
be from Mars as far as we know. We don't know who they are, where they
are or what they're up to and the way the Congress is going we're not
going to. Does this make sense? Labor force you say? We already
subsidize corporate agriculture as it is, must we subsidize their labor
as well? If these people were from Haiti or if they were from Somalia or
Afghanistan would we be so fast to turn a blind eye to them? I think
not.
All the media shows us are pictures of hard working Hispanics who have
crossed the border just to try to better their life. They don't show you
pictures of the Feds rounding up members of MS 13, the violent gang who
came across the same way the decent folks did. They don't tell you about
the living conditions of the Mexican illegals some fat cat hired to pick
his crop.
I want to make two predictions. No. 1: This situation is going to grow
and fester until it erupts in violence on our streets while the wimps in
Washington drag their toes in the dirt and try to figure how many tons
of political hay they can make to the acre.
No 2: Somebody is going to cross that border with some kind of weapon of
mass destruction and set it off in a major American city after which
there will be a backlash such as this country has never experienced and
the Capitol building in Washington will probably tilt as Congressmen and
Senators rush to the other side of the issue.
I don't know about you but I would love to see just one major politician
stand up and say, "I don't care who I make mad and I don't care how many
votes I lose, this is a desperate situation and I'm going to lead the
fight to get it straightened out."
I don't blame anybody for wanting to come to America, but if you don't
respect our immigration laws why should you respect any others.
And by the way, this is America and our flag has stars and stripes.
Please get that other one out of my face.
Pray for our troops

Dear _________________:

I am appalled by the decision of the Department of Defense to test a 700 ton non-nuclear "bunker buster" bomb in Nevada.

The test, code-named "Divine Strake," has created widespread anxiety throughout Nevada and strong opposition by the Western Shoshone nation, on whose land the tests are to be conducted, and its supporters around the world.

Why is our government ignoring the pleas of Nevadans, including the state's representatives in Congress?

I urge Congress to demand that Defense halt plans for this dangerous test now!

Sincerely,

Subject: Failed ,after $8 billion a Month

Published on Wednesday, May 3, 2006 by Inter Press Service
Iraq, Afghanistan Among Top Ten Failed States
by Jim Lobe

WASHINGTON - Despite receiving some eight billion dollars a month in economic aid and military support over the past year, Iraq and Afghanistan rank among the world's 10 weakest states, along with much of Central Africa, according to the "Failed States Index" for 2006 released here Tuesday.

Iraq ranks number four -- the same rating it received in the 2005 index -- behind the top-ranked country, Sudan; the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC); and Cote D'Ivoire, according to the new index, which was released by the Washington-based Fund for Peace and Foreign Policy magazine.

But the index's assessments were concluded before the latest escalation in sectarian violence that followed the bombing of the Golden Mosque in Samarra two months ago and that many observers believe has brought Iraq to the verge of all-out civil war.

Afghanistan, which ranked 11 in last year's index, moved up to number 10 this year, just behind its U.S.-backed next door neighbour, Pakistan, and Haiti, a third country that has been both occupied by U.S.-led forces and the recipient of large amounts of U.S. aid in the last two years.

In the five through seven slots between Iraq and Haiti, the index placed three sub-Saharan nations -- Zimbabwe, which ranked 15 last year; Chad, whose government is currently threatened by a military rebellion and incursions by Sudan-backed Arab militias; and Somalia, which still lacks a functioning central government some 12 years after U.N. peacekeeping forces withdrew.

Six of the 10 most vulnerable states and 11 of the top 20 "critical" states are found in sub-Saharan Africa. With the exception of Haiti, the rest are scattered around the periphery of Eurasia -- Iraq and Yemen in the Middle East; Afghanistan, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, and Burma in South Asia; and North Korea in East Asia.

The index, which is based on a dozen social, economic and political indicators, is designed in part to provide early warnings to the international community of states at risk of failure -- if they haven't, as in the case of Somalia, already collapsed.

For each indicator, countries are given a numerical score of between one (for best performance) and 10 (for worst performance). Sudan, for example, received a 7.5 score on its economic growth, but received more than 9.0 on each of the other criteria, giving it a total of 112.3.

This year's index covered 148 states. The 40 most vulnerable states were divided into two equal categories -- "critical" and "in danger". The largest single group, covering much of the Third World, as well as Russia and China, was assessed as "borderline", while the rest was divided into "stable" and "most stable".

In a perhaps unexpected finding, the United States and much of Europe were placed in the "stable" category on a par with Costa Rica, Panama, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, South Africa, Oman, South Korea and Mongolia.

The relatively poor U.S. and European performance was based primarily on the existence of "pockets of failure" within their territories, as demonstrated by the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina as the "world's superpower left thousands of its citizens stranded for days" and the riots that roiled immigrant communities in France last fall, according to an analysis of the index published in Foreign Policy.

"Most secure" countries included Canada, Japan, Australia, Switzerland, Austria, Ireland, the Netherlands, Belgium and the four Scandinavian nations.

The index defined a "failed state" as one in "which the government does not have effective control of its territory, is not perceived as legitimate by a significant portion of its population, does not provide domestic security or basic public services to its citizens, and lacks a monopoly on the use of force".

It is designed to measure risk of violent conflict or other forms of state collapse, rather than actual failure.

The latest index appears to raise serious questions about basic tenet of U.S. foreign policy under Pres. George W. Bush -- that democratic elections necessarily bolster state stability. Despite "successful" elections carried out in both Iraq and Afghanistan, stability appears to have deteriorated in both countries, according to the Foreign Policy analysis.

As in Sri Lanka last November, elections in Iraq appear to have exacerbated sectarian tensions, the analysis noted, although it stressed that major reasons for its poor performance last year were the decline of the country's professional class, as well as the intensification of sectarian conflict. Overall, Iraq scored 109.0 this year, significantly worse than the 103.2 last year.

The countries with the biggest numerical changes between the two years included Zimbabwe, whose performance worsened by 14 points, moving it from 15th to fifth place, and Pakistan, which went from 34th to 15th place due primarily to the impact of last November's earthquake and "simmering ethnic tensions in Baluchistan and the inability of the government to control tribal areas along the Afghan border".

Among more stable countries, increases in civil conflict in Nigeria and China accounted for 10-point increases for them both, moving them higher up the scale. Nigeria, which was ranked 54 last year, moved up to 22 and near the top of the "in-danger" category this year. China, which ranked 75 out of 76 last year, moved up to 57, primarily due to the growing gap between rich and poor and the tensions that have arisen as a result.

On the more positive side of the equation, the greatest progress towards stability was achieved by Venezuela, which moved from 22 and "in danger" in 2005 to well into the "borderline" category.

"Although President Hugo Chavez's economic policies may not have benefited the majority of Venezuelans, his scalding anti-American rhetoric combined with high oil prices have helped him solidify power and stabilise the country, at least in the short term," according to the analysis by Foreign Policy which, significantly, is edited by former Venezuelan trade and industry minister and outspoken Chavez critic, Moises Naim.

Other countries that improved their performance markedly over the past year included the Dominican Republic, Guatemala and Bosnia.

While Haiti fell into the "critical" zone, Colombia was the only Latin American country that was determined to be "in danger". Nonetheless, it, too improved its standing: last year, it was ranked 14; this year, it moved up to 27.

Besides Colombia, Bosnia and Nigeria, other "in-danger" countries included Uzbekistan and Tajikistan in Central Asia, Laos, Sri Lanka, and Indonesia in South and Southeast Asia; Egypt and Syria in the Arab world; Angola, Cameroon, and Burkina Faso in West Africa; and Ethiopia, Kenya, and Uganda in East Africa.

Social indicators used by the index included statistics regarding population density relative to life-sustaining resources; the forced displacement or flight of large sections of the population; and the existence, intensity, and legacy of communal divisions.

Economic indicators included the rate of per capita growth (or decline) and the inequality among different groups in benefiting from that growth.

Political indicators included good-governance criteria, such as the existence and extent of corruption; efficiency in the delivery of public services; and the rule of law; the fragmentation of ruling elites along group lines; civilian control over the security forces; and the intervention of foreign states or other forces.

Bill Would Prohibit Raises for Sub-Par Workers

By Stephen Barr
Thursday, May 4, 2006; Page D04

In a move that seems likely to reinvigorate debate over how best to overhaul the civil service, a key senator announced yesterday that he will introduce a bill to tighten up the government's performance-appraisal system and deny pay raises to federal employees rated as less than successful.

"Employees should receive a rigorous evaluation, and their pay should be determined based upon their performance," Sen. George V. Voinovich (R-Ohio), chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs federal workforce subcommittee, said at a breakfast forum.

Under law, federal employees who are performing poorly in their jobs can receive the January pay raise approved by Congress and the White House. Voinovich's proposal would prohibit agencies from giving annual raises and within-grade increases to employees deemed sub-par performers.

Most federal employees receive regular job evaluations, as called for by law, but Voinovich's proposal would establish an explicit requirement that every employee receive a written evaluation. The bill would prohibit pass-fail systems, which some agencies use, and would link job evaluations to agency goals and performance plans.

Voinovich said his proposal would fold into the General Schedule, the largest federal pay system, and would require agencies to provide training to managers to help them better judge employee performance and communicate job expectations to employees. The bill would direct agencies to operate under the new appraisal systems for a year before using it to make salary decisions. The Office of Personnel Management would oversee changes made by agencies, he said.

The senator's announcement -- the first time Voinovich has publicly discussed his plan -- came at a forum sponsored by the nonprofit Council for Excellence in Government and The Washington Post. The session was moderated by Patricia McGinnis , the council's president and chief executive.

After Voinovich described his bill, McGinnis turned to Linda M. Springer , director of the OPM, who was in the audience, and asked for a response. Springer said the Bush administration would support Voinovich's approach, calling it "great."

An aide to Voinovich said he had worked with the Office of Management and Budget and the OPM in drafting his bill and would reach out to federal unions and employee groups for advice. In his remarks, Voinovich said he hopes to win the support of Sen. Daniel K. Akaka (D-Hawaii), the ranking member on the federal workforce subcommittee.

Akaka said in a statement that he looks forward to working with Voinovich. Changes in pay systems, Akaka said, "must be done in a transparent, fair and credible manner and have sufficient funding, training and oversight to be successful."

Colleen M. Kelley , president of the National Treasury Employees Union, said she hopes to meet with Voinovich. "There is a lot of room for improvement in the current evaluation process," she said, noting that "employees do not trust that managers can and will make meaningful distinctions" when evaluating employees.

In a statement, John Gage , president of the American Federation of Government Employees, suggested that federal employees have more pressing issues, including morale, that deserve attention. "Unfortunately, there seems to be an over-emphasis on dealing with the less than one percent of federal employees who don't perform well," Gage said.

The Bush administration has called for abolishing the General Schedule because officials think it allows employees to automatically receive pay raises based on the length of their careers rather than how well they perform on the job.

But the administration's plan appears dead on Capitol Hill, in part because of bumpy rollouts of new pay systems for the Senior Executive Service and for rank-and-file employees at the Defense and Homeland Security departments over the past two years. Unions also have stalled the departments' plans to curb collective-bargaining rights through federal court rulings, which are on appeal.

Asked by McGinnis why he was not pursuing the administration's plan, Voinovich said the government needs to walk, rather than run, as it attempts to install rigorous performance-based pay systems. "I believe they don't understand how difficult this is," he said, referring to the Bush administration.

He added, "If we screw up . . . this pay-for-performance system, I think it is going to ricochet all over and make it impossible for us to move forward with some of the other things that we want to do."

Planet Earth As Weapon
and Target

Beginning with the use of nuclear energy for military purposes, mankind
has entered a seemingly endless race to harness the natural forces
within the planet, in the atmosphere and in space for waging war. The
earth is already gravely affected by many of those secret research and
testing programmes leading to unpredictable environmental and
epidemiological consequences .

LEUREN MORET

The term �exotic weapons systems� includes weapons designed to damage
space or natural ecosystems (such as the ionosphere and upper
atmosphere) or climate, weather, and tectonic systems with the purpose
of inducing damage or destruction upon a target population or region on
earth or in space.

( US Congress H.R. 2977: Space Preservation Act of 2001)

THE HISTORICAL ROOTS OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER AND ITS PERMANENT WAR
ECONOMY

The �permanent US war economy� of the USA traces its roots in
organisations and �a culture of death� back to the China opium wars,
and through the current Iraq war. Samuel Russell, the primary American
opium smuggler, acquired a vast fortune by launching the first clipper
ship in 1823. Leading British and American families made vast fortunes
with clippers smuggling opium from Turkey and India to China.

The illicit proceeds of expanded drug-trafficking today are
proliferating wars and influencing the foreign policy of modern
nation-States. Many researchers tie former President George H W Bush to
the CIA as far back as the 1950s, and indicate that one of his jobs was
to consolidate and coordinate the world�s biggest industry�the global
narcotics trade. The Vietnam �war� may have been a cover for US
consolidation of the �Golden Triangle�, formerly under the control of
the French. This seems to have been confirmed by Ross Perot when he was
appointed by President Reagan to be a special presidential investigator
looking for POWs and MIAs from the Vietnam �war�, and found himself on
the wrong side of Vice President George H. W. Bush. In the revealing
book about the abandonment of POWs/MIAs, Kiss the Boys� Goodbye: How
the United States Betrayed Its Own POWs in Vietnam, Monika
Jensen-Stevenson writes:

Relations between Bush and Perot had gone downhill ever since the Vice
President had asked Ross Perot how his POW/MIA investigations were
going.

�Well, George, I go in looking for prisoners�, said Perot, �but I
spend all my time discovering the government has been moving drugs
around the world and is involved in illegal arms deals ... I can�t get
at the prisoners because of the corruption among our own people.�

This ended Perot�s official access to the highly classified files as a
one-man presidential investigator. �I have been instructed to cease and
desist�, he had informed the families of missing men early in 1987.
(Kiss the Boys� Goodbye: How the United States Betrayed Its Own
POWs in Vietnam, Monika Jensen-Stevenson and William Stevenson, NY
Dutton, Penguin Books, 1990).

William Huntington Russell, a cousin of opium smuggler Samuel Russell,
arrived at Yale in 1832 after studying in Germany for two years from
1831�32, when it was a hotbed of new ideas. He returned steeped in
Hegelian philosophy which provided the philosophical roots of fascism
and communism. Granted authority to start a chapter by the mother
society in Germany, he founded the first US secret society at Yale
known today as �Skull and Bones�. Espionage, drug smuggling, and
historically foreign-based secret societies intertwined and evolved
throughout American history. Skull and Bones became the country�s
secret establishment; it institutionalised the sociological excess of
�elite deviancy�, with �vertical and horizontal chains of influence�
providing continuity over two centuries to carry out conspiratorial
schemes and permanent wars. Many Secretaries of War were �Bonesmen� as
well as some US Presidents. Early American Universities were often
founded by opium fortunes. Even the Manhattan Project in World War II
had close ties to Skull and Bones, and the nuclear weapons labs have
been managed since by the University of California, which was founded
by a �Bonesman�.

The unique relationship between Yale and the Intelligence Community
had been established during the Revolutionary War through the �Culper
Ring�, America�s first intelligence operation started by George
Washington. Following World War II, the CIA was established as the top
foreign espionage and counter-espionage agency. With strong ties to
Yale, and Skull and Bones, it has played a powerful covert role in
countries around the world. �Bonesmen� share an affinity for the
Hegelian ideas of the historical dialectic, which dictates the use of
controlled conflict (thesis versus anti-thesis) to create a
pre-determined synthesis. The synthesis is of their making and in this
New World Order, the state is absolute and the citizen can only become
free by worship and obedience to the state. In the new book, Fleshing
Out Skull and Bones: Investigations into America�s Most Powerful Secret
Society by Kris Millegan, 2003 there is evidence that these secret
societies �create and play both sides in controlled conflicts to
produce (desired) outcomes�:

From 1785, the origin of the New World Order can be traced to Adam
Weishaupt, founder of the Illuminati and his manuscript which was
accidentally discovered when a courier died en route from
Frankfurt-am-Main to Paris. Original Shift in Days of Illumination,
contained the long-range plans for the secret society which was �The
New World Order through world revolution�. Adam Weishaupt wrote:

By this plan, we shall direct all mankind in this manner. And, by the
simplest means, we shall set all in motion and in flames. The
occupation must be so allotted and contrived that we may, in secret,
influence all political transactions.

In 1798, Professor John Robinson who had been invited to join the
Illuminati but had declined, published a book called Proofs of a
Conspiracy:

An association has been formed for the express purpose of rooting out
all the religious establishments and overturning all the existing
governments... the leaders would rule the World with uncontrollable
power, while all the rest would be employed as tools of the ambition of
their unknown superiors. (Ibid)

The same year George Washington acknowledged Illuminati activity in
America and believed their purpose was to separate the People from
their government.

It is not my intention to doubt that the doctrine of the Illuminati
and the principles of Jacobinism had not spread in the United States.
On the contrary, no one is more satisfied with this fact than I am.

The Illuminati allied themselves with the Masons, and Skull and Bones
show similarities in their practices and beliefs. The New World Order
is based on a political philosophy that blends Zionism and Fascism�an
ideology known generally as neo-conservatism.

The interests behind the Bush Administration, such as the CFR, The
Trilateral Commission�founded by Zbigniew Brzezinski for David
Rockefeller�and the Bilderberg Group, have prepared for and are now
moving to implement open world dictatorship within the next five years.
They are not fighting against terrorists. They are fighting against
citizens.

(Dr. Johannes B. Koeppl, Ph.D. former German Defense Ministry Official
and Advisor to former NATO Secretary General Manfred Woerner. November
6, 2001, quoted in The High Priests of War: The Secret History of How
America�s �Neo-Conservatives� Trotskyites Came to Power, Michael
Collins Piper, 2004).

Today, the shadow of the architects of earlier wars, continues as a
permanent war economy with proliferation of ever more horrific weapons
for future wars. In the interim period between wars, the technologies
developed for the last war are used to develop new weapon systems, one
could call exotic weapons, for the next war. The atomic and other
technologies introduced in World War II, have been secretly developed
during the Cold War, into new directed energy weapons which seem beyond
the realm of possibility.

It is the function of the CIA to keep the world unstable, and to
propagandise and teach the American people to hate, so we will let the
Establishment spend any amount of money on arms.

(John Stockwell, former CIA official and author)

The legacy of the weapons proliferators, drug traffickers, sex
traffickers, and gambling promoters of yesterday.... continues to
enrich the same families. It is a culture of death and destruction
which is turning Planet Earth into a death star.

OUTER SPACE,�EXOTIC WEAPONRY AND THE NEW WORLD ORDER

Military interest in space became intense with the introduction of
rocket science and nuclear technology to the US military arsenal during
World War II. Between 1945 and 1963 rocket technology and nuclear
technology developed simultaneously. Nuclear weapons testing in the
atmosphere, underground and underwater provided new information about
the composition of the Earth�s atmospheric layers and how they
function, such as the protective characteristic. The ionosphere is the
most important protective blanketing layer on earth, shielding it from
the solar wind and cosmic energetic particles. The existence of the Van
Allen belts was discovered in 1958. The electrojet was also discovered
in the ionosphere, two very large rivers of direct current
electricity�a source of electrical power greater than anything on
earth. Other contributions were made to scientific knowledge from
nuclear bomb tests, about the lithosphere, magnetosphere, and the
gravitational field, but it did not come without a price.

The atomicity equivalent (equal number of radioactive atoms) of
radiation released during atmospheric testing was 40,000 Hiroshima
bombs which led to a global cancer epidemic�just the tip of the
iceberg, and at the bottom of the list of free radical diseases caused
by internal low level radiation exposure. Dr.�Rosalie Bertell has
estimated that 1.3 billion people have been killed, maimed, and
diseased by the nuclear weapons and nuclear power programmes. The
average yearly scholastic aptitude test scores for all children in the
United States declined from pre-bomb test scores of 475 to 425 for
children born in 1963 at the peak of bomb testing, and never fully
recovered. The WHO reported in 2004, of the countries surveyed, that
the United States has the highest rate of mental illness in the world
at over 26 per cent. The hidden benefit from a nation�s health
devastated for decades by radiation, is huge profits to pharmaceutical
corporations and to those who own them and also promote the wars�the
Bush family, the Carlyle Group, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and many
others.

And what was the environmental impact, known as �the Cold War
Mortgage�? The US has 10,500 contaminated sites, and five �National
Sacrifice Zones� which will never be cleaned up. The fishing catch in
the North Atlantic declined 50 per cent by 1963 and correlated with
Strontium 90 levels measured downwind in Norwegian milk. The fishing
catch recovered quickly after the Partial Test Ban Treaty was signed in
1963. In the Pacific, the fishing catch declined by 65 per cent and
never returned to normal levels because other countries continued
atmospheric testing. China was the last to stop in 1993.

Terrell E Arnold, who has been responsible for training our most
senior and most promising military officers as chairman of the
Department of International Studies at the US National War College in
Washington, reports that Coalition dead and wounded may actually be
twice what the US government admits and that, including the effects of
our use of depleted uranium and other toxic weapons, �a long-term
casualty rate for American forces of 40�50 per cent appears realistic.�

(Jung Sung-Ki, �USFK Lost Depleted Uranium: Activist�, The Korea
Times, December 23, 2005).

The Korea Times reported on December 23, 2005, that the US military
has 2.7 million depleted uranium bombs in South Korea. It is
understandable why North Korea wants nuclear weapons.

US Department of Homeland Security Dirty Bomb Cleanup Guidance
published January 3, 2006 would allow radiation levels that will cause
cancer in 1 in every 3 to 4 people exposed for 30 years, using National
Academy of Sciences BEIR VII or EPA risk estimates.

(Nuclear Information Resource Service (NIRS), Press Release, January
4, 2006).

Since 1945, in just 60 years, Dr. Strangelove (Edward Teller) and the
�Nuclear Cowboys� have poisoned the world, altering the genome of the
entire planet which developed over 4.5 billion years. The new exotic
weapons systems of the New World Order promise to be far more
destructive to the environment and will be used to reduce global
population levels and upwardly concentrate wealth.

Two recent bills in the US Congress hint at secret technologies that
have been developed from research on the atmosphere since World War II.
Exotic weapons systems are a reality and are intended for the
militarisation of space. H.R. 2977: the Space Preservation Act of 2001,
introduced in the House by Congressman Dennis Kucinich, defines weapons
systems such as directed energy, plasma, mood control, mind control,
psychotronics, and chemicals which can target objects, individuals, and
populations from space.

The technotronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more
controlled society. Such a society would be dominated by an elite,
unrestrained by traditional values. Soon it will be possible to assert
almost continuous surveillance over every citizen and maintain
up-to-date complete files containing even the most personal information
about the citizen. These files will be subject to instantaneous
retrieval by the authorities.

(Zbigniew Brzezinski, Between Two Ages, 1971).

Senate Bill S. 517: the Weather Modification and Research Operations
Board of 2005, introduced in the US Senate by Senator Kay Bailey
Hutchison, describes development of research and technologies to alter
atmospheric cloud formations in the troposphere, something that has
been happening for over 40 years. But there is clearly a hidden
military purpose

The military destruction of the environment and global public health
during the Cold War will pale next to the devastation and destruction
caused by these exotic weapons and space technologies. All of Planet
Earth including outer space is now the battlefield, and its natural
processes are the new weapons of war that will be used against the
citizens of the world.

The threat of environmental crisis will be the �international disaster
key� that will unlock the New World Order.
(Mikhail Gorbachev Quoted in �A Special Report: The Wildlands Project
Unleashes Its War On Mankind�, by Marilyn Brannan, Associate Editor,
Monetary & Economic Review, 1996, p.5).

US Representative Kucinich had been strongly opposed to the
militarisation of space, and his bill on Space Preservation was
intended as a reaffirmation of:

... the policy expressed in section 102(a) of the National Aeronautics
and Space Act of 1958 (42 U.S.C. 2451(a)), stating that it �is the
policy of the United States that activities in space should be devoted
to peaceful purposes for the benefit of all mankind�.
(H.R. 2977: Space Preservation Act of 2001).

Kucinich said, �If we don�t invest, we can�t be assured that Americans
are going to be involved with the commercial space ventures of the
future�. He added, �We have to be very careful about any efforts which
militarise space, because the militarisation of space will destroy the
commercial potential of space. We spend $300 billion a year on the
military, and we should be spending money on peacetime development of
technology, that�s what it comes down to. I think NASA is the key to
America�s future and leadership in every area of technology. You can
never spend too much on R&D, because we will grow our economy through
R&D�, he said.

But that is not what happened. Instead, the US went to war in
Afghanistan, put $300 billion into the war in Iraq (dumping old weapons
and testing new exotic weapons), starved the NASA budget, and lost a
space shuttle in a tragic accident. On November 28, 2005, it was
announced that NASA received US government clearance to purchase
Russian Soyuz spacecraft. Due to a �spacecraft gap� in NASA�s aging
fleet, the programme does not have the ability until 2012 to maintain
the presence of US Astronauts on the International Space Station
without the Russian spacecraft.

If the technology exists, we will use it ... officially or not.
(David MacMichaels, former CIA agent, at Congresswoman C. McKinney�s
9/11 Congressional Briefing, July 22, 2005).

In an interview in Berkeley, California, on September 14, 2002,
Kucinich passionately warned me �If we don�t stop them now... they have
those space weapons and they are going to put them up there in space
... and they absolutely are going to use them...�. Onstage an hour
later, he was presented with Berkeley Resolution #61744, the Berkeley
Space Preservation Resolution. Earlier that year, this author had read
the �definitions� of weapons in space in Kucinich�s bill (HR 2977: The
Space Preservation Act of 2002):

III. Directing a source of energy (including molecular or atomic
energy,
subatomic particle beams, electromagnetic radiation, plasma, or
extremely low frequency (ELF) or ultra low frequency (ULF) energy
radiation) against that object; or

IV. any other unacknowledged or as yet undeveloped means.

(ii) Inflicting death or injury on, or damaging or destroying, a
person (or the biological life, bodily health, mental health, or
physical and economic
well-being of a person)�

(I) through the use of any of the means described in clause (i) or
subparagraph (B);

(II) through the use of land-based, sea-based, or space-based systems
using radiation, electromagnetic, psychotronic, sonic, laser, or other
energies directed at individual persons or targeted populations for the
purpose of information, war, mood management, or mind control of such
persons or populations; or

(III) by expelling chemical or biological agents in the vicinity of a
person.

(B) Such terms include exotic weapons systems such as�

(i) electronic, psychotronic, or information weapons;

(ii) chemtrails;

(iii) high altitude ultra low frequency weapons systems;

(iv) plasma, electromagnetic, sonic, or ultrasonic weapons;

(v) laser weapons systems;

(vi) strategic, theater, tactical, or extraterrestrial weapons; and

(vii) chemical, biological, environmental, climate, or tectonic
weapons.

I was alarmed at the applications and implications of targeting
individuals and populations from space, thereby guaranteeing further
destruction of the environment. I wanted to do a resolution at the
municipal level that other cities could pass which would build support
in Congress for his bill. International lawyer, Alfred Labremont Webre,
who had already contributed to an International Space Preservation
Treaty through the Institute for Cooperation in Space, helped craft the
resolution for me which the Berkeley City Council passed unanimously on
September 10, 2002.

Predictably, Kucinich�s bill never passed in Congress. But after Mayor
Lisa Barrett introduced the Berkeley Resolution to the Bowen Island
City Council in British Columbia, it swept through Canada. In the
spring of 2005, it was used to gather thousands of signatures from
Canadians opposed to Canada joining National Missile Defence (NMD).
Angry Canadians had discovered Prime Minister Paul Martin, under
intense pressure by the US, had made a secret agreement with President
Bush to join NMD. Canadian citizens marched into Parliament with
thousands of signatures and forced Martin to withdraw his secret NMD
agreement.

It was a wise decision by Canadian citizens but a fatal outcome for
Martin. It was certain that there would be an attempt to replace him
with a more conservative government which would adopt NMD. Not a single
NMD test had really worked, and whistleblowers such as MIT Professor
Theodor Postol, had documented extensive science fraud throughout the
history of the project. Ted Postol challenged the Pentagon and won. Now
missile defense again has pitted him against the government�and his
employer and colleagues, Charles P. Pierce (Boston Globe, October 23,
2005). The only test that was �successful� worked because a homing
device was put on one missile so the other missile could locate it.

Since Reagan initiated the programme, $92.5 billion has been spent on
Star Wars/Strategic Missile Defence. Star Wars was science fraud nearly
from the start. Marion Fulk, a Manhattan project scientist who worked
in the nuclear weapons programme at the Livermore Lab, described the
�Cottage shot� which was part of a directed energy project he was
working on when Edward Teller and Lowell Wood hijacked it and ran off
with it to Washington DC. (Personal communication November 30, 2005).
Seeing the intentional misapplication of it, Fulk almost immediately
retired. Teller called it �Star Wars� and sold it to President Reagan
in one hour. In 1983, Reagan got up and talked about a world made safe
from the fire in the sky, but his vision was closer to magical thinking
than to reality. Many exotic technologies were proposed: 100-ton
space-based lasers, neutral particle beams, electromagnetic rail guns,
brilliant pebbles, and brilliant eyes.

The problem is that it cost a lot, never worked, will never work, and
the Russians who were militarily outspent by the US during the Cold
War, proved later to be smarter by strategically developing the most
lethal missile in the world.

The Russian 3M-82 Moskit anti-ship cruise missile called the SS-N-22
Sunburn by NATO is a weapon that the US Navy currently has no defence
against and it has now been upgraded to a newer version. Russia has
sold them to China and Iran.

The Sunburn can deliver a 200�300 kiloton equivalent of TNT nuclear
payload, or a 750 pound conventional warhead, at Mach 3 or three times
the speed of sound, as low as 9 feet off the ground, making it
invisible to radar. And it can elude enemy defences with violent-end
manoeuvers. It was designed to defeat the US Aegis radar defence
system.

China demonstrated this missile in full view of the multinational
naval forces during �Summer Pulse� exercises off Taiwan. These were
�masterminded� by the US military in the Pacific in the summer of 2004
to show US superior military power to China. Instead, it became a
statement of Chinese military advantage when China shot a Sunburn
through the bull�s eye of a target on a ship anchored in front of the
multinational fleet off Taiwan. It also reinforced the reality that the
US is ten years behind Russia in missile development.

Clinton-Gore declassified documents from 1995 reveal that a US-Russia
secret agreement allowed Russia to continue arms sales to Iran, and
that America actually helped Russia improve its weapons. The US also
secretly agreed to buy �Sunburn� missiles from Russia. US Admiral Bowes
wrote to Russian Admiral Gromov in a September 1995 letter:

�I appreciate the opportunity to convey to you the United States
Navy�s interest in acquiring all variants of the SS-N-22 �Sunburn�
Anti-Ship Supersonic Ship-to-ship missile for test and evaluation.�

Amazingly, the US turned down the Russian Sunburn offer. According to
one Pentagon source, the administration balked at the Sunburn price of
nearly �a million dollars� a missile.(�How US Helped Russia Improve
Deadly Missiles� by C. Smith, Newsmax.com January 23, 2001).

The two NMD missiles tested in the Pacific in December 2004 and
February 2005, failed to even leave their silos and cost $85 million
each. The Sunburn missile now at $2 million and a proven lethal weapons
system seems like a very good bargain. The US Navy has a missile gap
with no old ones left and no new ones to replace them. The Russians
continue to make the best weapons in the world�secretly with US
government help. But this is nothing new.

Reported in December 2005, Russian tests have been successful with a
new class of land or submarine based ballistic missiles which can
manoeuvre during flight, are called �quasi or semi� ballistic missiles
and are unstoppable with present ABM interceptors. These dramatically
upgraded Bulava (SRBM) and Topol (SS-27) missiles have turned the
tables on US missile defence since the only feasible defence against
them implies having pre-positioned space-based anti-ballistic missile
interceptors in orbit. That appears impossible for the already over
budget US Missile Defence Agency which failed in two out of three tests
to even get the ground-based interceptor engines to ignite.

CHINAGATE

Cinton�s Nuclear Potlatch (A potlatch is a ceremony among Native
American Peoples in the Pacific Northwest. Hierarchical relations
between groups were observed and reinforced through the exchange of
gifts and other ceremonies. The potlatch is an example of a gift
economy; the host demonstrates his wealth and prominence through giving
away his possessions and thus prompts participants to reciprocate when
they hold their own potlatch).

Newly declassified �Chinagate� documents reveal that in 1996 under
pressure from Hughes Aerospace CEO C. Michael Armstrong, US President
Bill Clinton gave a waiver and personally approved the export to China,
of radiation-hardened specialised chip sets for a Chinese
meteorological satellite. The special chips are necessary for advanced
space technology and are critical for nuclear warfare in advanced
nuclear warheads.

�In all likelihood we will be glowing in the dark before we discover
the true extent of the Clinton decade of betrayal�, stated Rick Fisher,
Asian Security Fellow at the Center for Security Policy.

�If it was indeed intended for a new PRC weather satellite, then it is
possible that it was used for their new polar orbit weather satellites.
This is significant because the Chinese themselves acknowledge that
their polar orbit weather satellites directly contribute to their
long-range missile targeting capability. This becomes even more
important for their new smaller but more accurate warheads, used on
their new DF-31, DF-31A, DF-5 Mod2 and JL-2 missiles. If they encounter
significant weather, warhead accuracy degrades, reducing their
utility�, stated Fisher. (� Clinton Gave China Chips for Nuclear War�
Charles R. Smith, Newsmax.com October 1, 2003 )

This shows the extent to which the Clinton White House placed trade,
specifically with China, above National Security. Even more telling,
the transfer took place during an investigation of Chinese espionage
into missing US radiation-hardened satellite chips. When a damaged
American Loral satellite from a failed Chinese launch was returned to
Loral electronics, the radiation hardened encrypted telemetry chips,
stored in a secure flight control box similar to those found on
airliners were missing. The NSA changed all US satellite codes as a
result of the theft of the Loral chips, which cost American taxpayers
millions of dollars.

The Chinese army also made contributions to the 1996 Clinton-Gore
campaign, sometimes in cash. Allegations of espionage, illegal campaign
donations, and possibly bribery were never fully investigated.

Hughes CEO Armstrong was not so lucky. Hughes was charged by the US
State Department with 123 counts of violating national security for
satellite exports to China, which Hughes admitted were military items.
The company pleaded no contest, which disgraced the company, and it was
fined half a billion dollars. After trashing Hughes, Armstrong moved on
to AT&T and then Comcast.

Because of the greed of Hughes/Armstrong, the Commerce Department
allowed the Chinese army to obtain a vast array of advanced missile,
satellite, and space technology. Several years ago, while the US space
shuttle was grounded, the US space technology illegally sold to the
Chinese Army was used on China�s first manned spacecraft.

In 1997 as chair of the President�s Export Council, Armstrong stated
in a report that the US nuclear industry had to sell 100 nuclear
reactors to China or the US nuclear industry and the US Navy�s nuclear
programme would be threatened. That the survival of the US nuclear
industry depends on China was an outrageous argument. He was
unsuccessful in lobbying for the sales despite efforts by Clinton to
export nuclear technology to China. A reluctant Republican-controlled
Congress resisted the sales because of national security concerns.

From the 1970s through the Clinton era, China apparently got the
entire classified portfolio on design and manufacturing of all US major
�nukes�. Nuclear weapons lab scientist, Dr. Wen Ho Lee, falsely accused
of transferring classified information to China, was made the
scapegoat, humiliated, put in prison in solitary confinement for 278
days in leg irons, while Wang Jun, the head of the Chinese Secret
Police and a major arms dealer was able to have coffee with President
Clinton in the White House. Secretary of Defence William Cohen,
commented on the transfer of nuclear weapons technology from Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory to China:

�They weren�t exactly spying in my view. We gave it to them.�

While the Mossad (assisted by Mossad agent and international publisher
Robert Maxwell) and Chinese spies were stealing nuclear secrets from
the Los Alamos and Livermore nuclear weapons labs, Richard Berta, the
Western Regional Inspector from the Inspector General�s Office at the
Department of Energy (DOE) was too busy doing business with the lab
administrators to notice.

According to US Congressional Testimony of Danielle Brian on
September�24, 2002, when the World Trade Center disaster happened in
2001, Navy Seals were secretly sent into nuclear facilities as
�terrorists� and were able to enter the classified areas and steal
enough weapons grade plutonium from the Los Alamos nuclear weapons lab
to make a nuclear bomb. They used wire cutters to get through the
perimeter fence and a wheelbarrow to get the plutonium out of the lab.
This exercise was repeated�with similar concerns about security this
year at the Livermore nuclear weapons lab.

The �Nuclear Potlatch� legacy that President Clinton left for the
twenty-first century is a modern Chinese army equipped for global
nuclear war. Not so much an accident, but a pattern seen over and over
again that in reality is a setup. The US lays a weapon on the table,
says to a country �Go ahead... pick it up...� and when the country
reaches for that new �toy��they are whacked with a big stick and
eventually �bombed into radioactive rubble�.

The Wars on Terror, Drugs, and Weapons of Mass Destruction are dreamed
up in that Death Star in Arlington, Virginia�the Pentagon. Three
branches of the US government are part of the staged production that
give Americans a false notion that they live in a democracy and have a
truthful media reporting to them about the success of �exporting
democracy� through wars. Nothing could be further from the truth. The
United States has become a fascist state where there is no clear
distinction between legitimate and clandestine illegal organisations.

While the George H. Bush administration was hyping the War on Terror,
Defense Information Agency (DIA) officials believed that nuclear
technology had been transferred to Pakistan and began investigating.
Similarities between Pakistani and US weapons designs were of
particular concern. A regular exchange of information was discovered,
between China and the Army Computer Lab at the Aberdeen Proving Ground
in Maryland, that took place during the 1980s and early 1990�s (under
Presidents Reagan/Bush and Bush/Quayle). At the same time the CIA and
US policy-makers used A.Q. Khan as a cover, claiming he was secretly
running a black-market network for distributing nuclear materials to
countries like Iran, North Korea, Libya, and Malaysia, when he was
simply acting as their frontman. Many of the companies he did business
with are government controlled. Efforts to trade nuclear technologies
with North Korea in exchange for missile technologies were approved by
the top echelon of both the Pakistan and Saudi governments. Countries
that detained Khan were ordered to �look but don�t touch� by the US,
and he was released. Pakistani Nazir Ahmed Vaid was arrested in Houston
in 1984 attempting to smuggle out 50 krytrons, electronic switches for
nuclear weapons. He received a very special deal and was let off on
probation and deported. He continued to enter the country illegally and
conduct business until 2004 when his son was warned by a Customs� Agent
that there was a detention order on his father.

In the 1980s, Congressman Charlie Wilson working with the CIA, told
Pakistan�s President Zia ul-Haq:

�Mr. President, as far as I am concerned you can make all the bombs
you want.�

(Joseph J. Trento, Prelude to Terror: The Rogue CIA and the
Legacy of America�s Private Intelligence Network).

It is hard to believe that the US intelligence community was unaware
of a massive secret atom bomb project funded by the Kingdom of Saudi
Arabia through the failed BCCI bank. According to a Senate report
George H.W. Bush�s favorite bank was also used to covertly fund the
anti-Soviet Afghanistan resistance, and the CIA has been aware since
the 1970s of Pakistan�s nuclear program when Bush was Director. Among
George W. Bush�s �Axis of Evil� supposed enemies, many of his father�s
�friendenemies� are listed.
The pan-Islamic bomb project may be one of the biggest nuclear
conspiracies in modern history. Recent disclosures involve CIA covert
agent Valerie Plame�s investigation of WMD, her attendance at
American-Turkish Council events, and several trips to Turkey. The
Turkish newspaper Huriyet described her visit as a search for WMDs and
more likely their components. Transactional emails made between Asher
Karni [Israeli businessman in S. Africa], Zeki Bilmen [Turkish
businessman] of Ginza Technologies in New Jersey, and Humayun Khan
[operative for the Pakistani military] concerned procurement of
oscilloscopes and oscillators (used to build missiles and nuclear
weapons), and triggered spark gaps (used to spark nuclear explosions).
Referring to the spark gaps, Bilmen said in another email �... No
Export Licence Required to South Africa. I thought you might want to
know.� Asher Karni, a Hungarian-born Israeli citizen and resident of
South Africa, was caught at the Denver airport in 2003 exporting 200
nuclear weapons triggers to Pakistan, and was sentenced to 3� years in
prison on August 4, 2005. By illegally providing nuclear components
arranged by the White House and Pentagon through middleman Asher Karni,
the Bush administration and pro-Israeli neocons hoped to accelerate
Iran�s nuclear programme by ten years. Turkey�s role in illicit nuclear
transactions and selling off classified US military data involves the
Russian-Ukrainian-Israeli Mafia and their �friends� involved in related
activities.

SECRET DEVELOPMENT OF EXOTIC SPACE WEAPONS EXPLORATION OF
SPACE�FOR��MILITARY��PURPOSES

�Cover stories about projects must be believable and cannot reveal any
information regarding the true nature of the project.�

(National Industrial Security Programme Manual (draft) March 1992,
provided by US Department of Defense for industrial contractors).

The �true nature� of the project is clearly US military space
dominance and warfare.

Nearly all of the atmospheric research undertaken by the US since
World War II has been conducted by or for the benefit of the military
under the legitimate cover of �academic research� and shielded from
scrutiny by secrecy. The best and the brightest minds have been lured
into this research, engaged in compartmentalised investigations with
little knowledge of the larger application.

The militarisation of US Space Command: 2020 Vision is sanctioned by
Congress. The military considers space the �high ground� and clearly it
is the next battlefield... or is this just another cover?

�We�ll expand into these two missions (space control and space force
application) because they will become increasingly important. We will
engage terrestrial targets someday�ships, airplanes, land targets�from
space. We will engage targets in space, from space. And this command
will engage quickly; [the missions] are already assigned, and we�ve
written the concepts of operations. We will engage re-entry vehicles in
the medium of space with a ballistic missile defence system of North
America. It�s politically sensitive, but it�s going to happen. Some
people don�t want to hear this, and it sure isn�t in vogue...
but�absolutely�we�re going to fight in space.�

(General Ashy, commander US Air Force Space Command and
commander-in-chief of the combined US-Canada North American Air Defence
Command (NORAD), August 5, 1996).

Orbiting our world at hypervelocity (10 km/sec), mostly in low-Earth
orbits, are a large number of satellites (the real number is
classified) and a debris field of space trash which travels at speeds
of up to 17,000 miles an hour. As of 1987, orbital pollution was
composed of more than 7000 objects 10 cm, 50,000 objects from 1�10 cm,
and 10�100 billion paint chips which are now in orbit. By 2002, the US
Air Force Space Command was tracking 10,000 objects 10 cm: �operating
and dead satellites, explosion fragments from rocket engines, garbage
bags and frozen sewage dumped by astronauts, shrapnel from
antisatellite weapons tests, 34 nuclear reactors and their fuel cores,
an escaped wrench, an astronaut�s glove and a toothbrush�. Returning
space shuttles often have dings and window cracks. Astronaut Edgar
Mitchell described how a paint chip nearly took out the Space Shuttle
and that it is �nearly too dangerous now� to travel in space. The 1987
risk of a damaging collision during several years in orbit was 1 in
500. The volume of debris doubles about every 5 years and weighed 3000
tons in 1997. Pieces of space trash 10 cm must each be identified and
tracked by complex military computers in order to differentiate them
from a missile attack. Each piece of space trash is reported and
registered annually with the UN.

In January 1978, when Cosmos 954, a nuclear-powered Soviet satellite,
fell from orbit over Canada, it released radioactive debris and dust
contaminating a path 2,000 km long. That was not the first one. NASA�s
New Horizons space probe heading for Pluto is powered by a Radioactive
Thermoelectric Generator or �RTG� containing 24 pounds (about 132,465
Curies) of extremely deadly plutonium�mostly Pu 238, and about 12 per
cent Pu 239 (aka �weapons grade plutonium�). The military connection to
this launch is that covertly RTGs could be used for orbiting spy
satellites, but the military will not admit using them. Military plans
to use nuclear weapons and nuclear powered propulsion in space should
be of great concern. Lower orbital space is already contaminated with
uranium and its decay products from atmospheric testing. It remains
suspended in the atmosphere until it is rained or snowed out of the
air, depositing it in the environment.

The expanding ring of man-made garbage circling the earth at
hypervelocity, is an increasing threat to spacecraft and satellites.
Objects �greater than 1 mm will likely penetrate the skin of a
satellite or a solar panel, those greater than 1 cm will cause the
break-up of satellites, and those greater than 10 cm can cause the
total fragmentation of a satellite�. The UN�s Committee on the Peaceful
Uses of Outer Space reported in 1999 that 16,000 space objects had
reentered the atmosphere in the previous 40 years. That is about one
object a week with a cross section of one square metre.

Military and NASA officials dismiss claims by scientists and
astronauts that weapons in space could leave so much debris that lower
orbital space would be unusable. The danger of radioactive pollution
from nuclear weapons in space is never mentioned.

In a speech in April 2002, Astronaut Sally Ride said anti-satellite
weapons would be �disastrous�, particularly between 150 and 400 miles
high. This zone includes the space shuttle, international space
station, and reconnaissance satellites.

Yet in the face of the new upgraded Russian Topol and Bulova missiles,
and of the complete failure of the US land-based anti-missile missiles,
space-based weapons are the only defence possible. A high-tech space
battle could be catastrophic as biophysicist John Primack argues,
because if an enemy chose a low-tech delivery of �giant loads of rock
or metal pellets into space�:

No actual space war even has to be fought. Any country that felt
threatened by America�s starting to place lasers or other weapons in
space would only have to launch the equivalent of gravel to destroy the
sophisticated weaponry.

(�Scientist: Space weapons pose debris threat� Richard Stenger, CNN,
May 3, 2002).

A marble travelling at 17,000 mph, 10 times faster than a bullet,
could hit an object �with the force of a one-ton safe dropped three
stories�. This could set off a series of collisions that would cascade
into more and more collisions eventually leaving the orbital zone
unusable. Another example of ancient Mesopotamian warfare turning
high-tech weapons into dust.

So what are the real weapons and what is the real purpose for the
militarisation of space?

SOLAR POWER SATELLITE PROJECT (1968)

The solar power satellite programme (SPS) in the late 1960s, won
public support from civilians and universities as an alternative to
nuclear power, but served for the military as a cover for continued
research and experimentation on the ionosphere. The projected cost of
the electricity produced by this project was $3000 per kilowatt
compared to $1100 per kilowatt for nuclear power. This was a very
expensive programme from the start, requiring nearly $800 billion for
the 60 satellites required alone, and it must have been obvious to some
that it would never be implemented. The whole budget cost was 2�3 times
greater than the entire DOE budget! In 1978, Dr. Rosalie Bertell was on
a government review panel, and discovered the shadow of the military
through another panel member who pointed out that there was a
possibility of developing a satellite-borne beam weapon for
anti-ballistic missile use. Another possibility was that it could be
used for a satellite surveillance system.

�My former neighbour worked for TRW for many years putting the little
black boxes together in the sats [satellites] they were launching.
Interestingly, these so-called �weather� sats suddenly went missing. My
neighbour said he had heard enough talk at TRW to cause him to believe
these sats went �stealth� into 20,000-mile high orbits from the
original 300-mile high orbit. He was not certain of the function of the
little black boxes but his fringe knowledge of laser systems and
related components led him to believe these �weather� sats were in fact
laser guns for preemptive action when needed ... until then, it is
anyone�s guess as to what function they actually are performing.

Speculation about a ground-based high-energy laser beam that could
thermally destroy incoming enemy missiles was also discussed. In
Livermore, California, in the middle of the night in the summer of
1993, I observed from my backyard a very large amber coloured laser
beam about 10 feet in diameter, pointed straight up into the atmosphere
from the Lawrence Livermore Lab. All air traffic was diverted for 5
miles around the beam. When I asked a physics student, working at the
lab and renting a room in my house that summer, what it was for, he
said, �Oh, they�re making a star up there...�

In the entrance of the large Laser Facility at Livermore Lab is a 10
feet tall bronze statue of Shiva, representing the dance of the
Universe. The first big laser project was called Shiva. A tradition at
the Livermore lab is that each one is destroyed when a new one is
built.

STRATEGIC DEFENcE INITIATIVE (SDI) OR �STAR WARS�

The United Nations Committee on Disarmament told Dr. Bertell, who had
been concerned about weapons applications, that as long as SPS was
called �solar energy�, it could not be considered a weapons project
(Planet Earth: The Latest Weapon of War by Rosalie Bertell, Black Rose
Books, 2001). Eventually Congress killed it because of the cost. But it
came back as the Strategic Defence Initiative (SDI) or Star Wars under
Reagan. The cost of building the Star Wars defense system was estimated
at $100 to $1000 billion. The US spent nearly�$30 billion on it,
despite objections from scientists, NATO allies, and anti-nuclear
movements who stressed that it broke the terms of the 1972
Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty.

Disillusioned researchers in the US have claimed that Star Wars was
science fraud and that data was falsified, Caspar Weinberg, Secretary
of Defence under Reagan, stated that it was actually conceived to
deceive the USSR and force them to escalate military defence spending.
In 1991, I was approached at the Lawrence Livermore Lab by a
gray-haired scientist I had never met but who seemed to know me. He
said:

�The Cold War is over, we�ve looked at the books in the USSR and they
are bankrupt. When the Soviet Union collapses in a year or two you are
out of here. We only need you [geoscientists] to monitor global nuclear
weapons testing. We are dismantling the military and expanding the
intelligence community by at least ten times.�

In 1993 the funds from the Star Wars project, which had officially
ended, were transferred to the Ballistic Missile Defence Organisation,
the third reincarnation of the same project since Reagan. Now that it
was a compartmentalized project�laser defence, radar systems, National
Missile Defence (NMD), and the Space Shuttle�none of the parts seemed
particularly alarming until, as Dr. Rosalie Bertell puts it, space
shields or plasma shields were taken into consideration as the real
purpose behind the persistent reincarnations of these very expensive
programmes.

THE JAPANESE AUM SHINRIKYO AND ELECTROMAGNETIC WEAPONS RESEARCH

On April 23, 1993, Aum Shinrikyo, the Japanese �Supreme Truth�
Buddhist Sect, purchased a 500,000 acre sheep ranch in Western
Australia near Banjawarn. They sold the ranch and suddenly left
Australia in October 1994. Indications were that they had prospected
for uranium, used chemicals and a laboratory for an unknown purpose,
and after they left Australia traces of Sarin gas were found on sheep
and wool (�Global Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction: A Case
Study on the Aum Shinrikyo�, Senate Government Affairs Permanent
Subcommittee on Investigations October 31, 1995 Staff Statement). Later
members of this sect were implicated in the 1995 attack on the Tokyo
subway with Sarin gas. The leader was tried and convicted in Tokyo
while I was in Japan for the summer of 2003. I met Japanese journalists
who had followed the story and personally knew members of the sect,
many of whom are scientists. Manhattan Project member, Dr. Fred Wood,
and Alden Bryant, Secretary-Treasurer of the New Energy Movement warned
me about how dangerous Russian exotic weapons technology is and said
that it had been leased by the Aum from Russia. The Aum recruited
followers in Japan, Russia, Australia, Sri Lanka, the United States,
and visited Yugoslavia. Links to the Yakuza (Japanese Mafia) through
drug dealing were alleged in the Japanese media.

A Congressional investigation of the Aum Shinrikyo in 1995 reported
that their interest in WMDs was related to Armagedon-like events they
planned to stage against New World Order interests:

�It [Aum] claims that the Jews are planning similar massacres in other
areas of the world in order to carry out a sinister plot to reduce the
world�s population by three billion people by the year 2,000. The Aum
also has linked the Jews to its other enemies within Japanese
society�the �black aristocracy� of Japanese �internationalists�
including a number of current and former Japanese politicians and
statesmen.�

The sect claimed 65,000 members, with over half in Russia. The
Japanese government estimated their assets at $1 billion. Many of the
Aum followers were highly educated in the science and technological
fields and graduated from Japan�s best universities. The sect spent
over $400 million on computer equipment, nearly all purchased from a
Taiwan company. Their cult acquired conventional weapons but were more
interested in WMDs and apparently saw Russia as a source for more
exotic, and far deadlier weapons.

When the Russian Duma did an investigation of the sect, Russian
parliamentarian Vitaliy Savitsky, chairman of the Duma�s Religious
Affairs Committee told fellow parliamentarians that, �his committee
seriously suspected that Aum Shinrikyo had been assisted in its
penetration into Russia by Russian intelligence services.�

From February to April 1995, the Aum sent a party of six members to
the Tesla Museum in Belgrade, the former Yugoslavia, to review Tesla�s
original thesis and other research papers pertaining to �Tesla weapon
systems� which focus on wave amplification. Nokola Tesla was a
scientist who experimented in the fields of atmospherics,
electromagnetics, fluid dynamics, and geodynamics in the early 1900s,
and discovered alternating current. Although Marconi won the Nobel
Prize for inventing radio, Tesla later won a lawsuit claiming that he
had been the rightful inventor. When he died in the US in 1943, all of
his papers were seized by the US government and classified. The Aum
members studied research on the Tesla Coil, used for alternating
current, as well as other inventions and experiments. His early
experiments with resonating frequencies were experiments in creating
earthquakes. He was quoted as saying that with his technology he could
�split the world� in two. Tesla had developed a �ray� gun in the 1930s
which was actually a particle beam accelerator. This gun was reported
to be able to shoot down an airplane at 200 miles, and he claimed to
have invented the Tesla shield which nothing could penetrate.

In April 1993, Australians were told by the Aum sect that the property
in Australia was to be used to �conduct experiments there for the
benefit of mankind�. On May 28, just 35 days after the purchase, a
strange meteor like fireball, an explosion, and an earthquake of
magnitude 4 were reported in the area. In September 1993, a front
company for Aum was used to import electrical equipment including
transformers, static converters, generators, coaxial cabling,
batteries, meters and tools, and protective equipment into Australia.

Later a geologist named Harry Mason, visited the area and investigated
the semi-desert region looking for meteor craters. He discovered from
interviews with residents that:

�... people heard the fireball well before they saw it; it was a large
orange-red spherical fireball with a very small bluish conical tail;
the speed was like that of a 747 jet liner; the fireball flew
apparently parallel to Earth�s curvature in a long �nap of earth�
arcing trajectory at low altitude (about 2000 metres) over a distance
of at least 250 kilometres; the fireball arced down toward the ground
and disappeared behind trees or low hills; then a blinding massive high
energy burst of blue-white light lit up the night as if it was
daylight. Observers could see more than 100 kilometres in every
direction at ground level; a red colour flare then shot vertically
skywards and a massive seismic ground wave hit the observers; a very
loud major explosive blast followed, that was heard over a 250 km by
150 km corridor; minor quake damage was reported as far as 150 km
southeast.�

(Harry Mason, �Bright Skies Part I�, Nexus, March�April 1997).

There were many irregularities which indicated this phenomenon was
very different from anything known before. Since the 1993 fireball
event, thousands of similar sightings and light-energy emissions have
occurred in Australia. Dr. Bertell reports that the fireball
trajectories pass near four military complexes: Showa and Mizuho in
Japan, Molodezhnaya and Novolazarevskaya in Russia. The Kamchatka
peninsula, in Siberia, is also suspected of being one of a series of
former Soviet electromagnetic weapons transmitters around the world.

UNDECLARED ELECTROMAGNETIC WAR

Design work began on antiballistic missiles (ABM) in 1946, at the
University of Michigan, for interception of long-range missiles. The
Soviet Union also began development of ABM defence after World War II,
mainly theoretical research between 1948 and 1951. By 1967 the USSR
began working on projects for early warning systems, space defence, and
a system for outer space control. These became the main components of
the ABM and space defence of the Soviet Union.

Upgraded from above-the-horizon radar, the Soviet Duga-2 �Iron Yard�
over-the-horizon radar was designed in 1970 to detect enemy missiles
within two or three minutes, and was successfully tested at Novaya
Zemlya. At Nikolaev the radar built included 26 huge transmitters (each
one was of the size of a two-story building).

�The transmitting antenna was 210 meters wide and 85 metres high. The
receiving antenna was 300 metres wide and 135 metres high. The antenna
field housed 330 transmitters of about 15 meters each. These radars had
to reliably detect group and mass launches of intercontinental
ballistic missiles from the territory of the US.�

On July 4, 1976, the 200 th anniversary of the United States, the
first such facility began operations at Kiev and has been on the air
ever since. The powerful electromagnetic transmissions were a signal
transmitted at frequencies between 3.26 and 17.54 megahertz, and was
pulse-modulated at a rate of several times a second. The 2 MW
transmitter at first interfered with communications, and ham radio
operators picked it up all over the world, but corrections were made so
that it skipped critical frequencies for aircraft and transoceanic
flights as it moved across its operational spectrum.

Two more similar facilities were built later near Chernigov and
Komsomolsk-na-Amur. The facilities at Kiev and at Komsomolsk-na-Amur
provide coverage of the United States. A smaller lower-power facility
at Nikolaeyev near Odessa provides coverage of China.

On July 18, 1977, the US government became covert partners with the
Soviets and the secret code name given to it in the US was Project
Woodpecker. The US sent a team of scientists to Russia with a 40 ton
magnet and other scientific material and equipment for further research
and development.

The main research center for the Project has been the Lawrence
Livermore National Lab. Covert funding funneled through the CIA and
National Security Agency provided support along with collaboration by
the Department of Defence and NASA from the beginning of the project.
In January 1995, the Livermore State of the Laboratory award
publication announced that a 21-member Woodpecker team had received the
Intelligence Community Seal Medallion in 1994 for �its work on a
classified project to improve information-gathering techniques.� The
Deputy Director of the CIA and the Director of the NSA presented the
award at CIA headquarters at Langley, Virginia. The award cited the
team�s success:

�...on a series of technical problems of enormous complexity,
resulting in an extremely powerful operational capability that can be
used to gather intelligence from unique sources not exploitable by any
other means.�

The lab publication stated that in 1985 the project team started work
on feasibility studies. The final product was delivered to the project
sponsor in 1992, just as the Cold War ended.

On June 22, 1995, Dr. Armen Victorian received an answer from the
Oakland office of the DOE on his appeal for a Freedom of Information
(FOIA) request on Project Woodpecker:

In its May 5, 1995 determination, Oakland stated that a search had
been conducted for documents responsive to Victorian�s request, but
that no records were found as a result of the search. Oakland
specifically stated that information relating to Project Woodpecker had
been destroyed.

Back in 1952 a secret meeting was held in New Mexico between Russian
and US scientists at the Sandia Lab, which is part of the nuclear
weapons programme. An exchange of information on the biological hazards
of microwave and electromagnetic frequencies, and safety levels, was
not entirely successful. The Russians publicly acknowledged the risks
but the Americans did not take them seriously. Shortly after that the
Russians began a 30-year programme beaming the US embassy in Moscow
with microwaves, causing the deaths of three US Ambassadors and
illnesses in employees. The �Moscow Signal� discovered by the CIA in
1962, was used by the Russians on US embassy employees to test
low-level EMR (electromagnetic resonance) effects.

In April 1976, Secretary of State Henry Kissinger sent the following
telegram to the US Embassy in Moscow, which summarized the conclusions
of the study of the Moscow signal:

�Subject: Radiation and UHF and Electromagnetic Dangers�

�Beginning in 1960 the Soviet Union directed the high frequency beams

of radiation at the US Embassy in Moscow which were calculated not to
pick up intelligence but cause physiological effects on personnel. The
effects the Soviets calculated to achieve in the personnel serving (at
least as early as 1960) included (A) Malaise (B) Irritability, (C)
Extreme fatigue. At this time the Soviets believed that the induced
effects were temporary. Subsequently, it has been verified that the
effects are not temporary. Definitely tied to such radiation and the
UHF/VHF electromagnetic waves are: (A) Cataracts, (B) Blood changes
that induce heart attacks, (C) Malignancies, (D) Circulatory problems,
and (E) Permanent deterioration of the nervous system. In most cases
the after-effects do not become evident until long after exposure�a
decade or more.�

(William MacIntosh, Project Pandora,
http://www.geocities.com/adrian9999999999/pandora.htm).

The Soviets apparently were the first to use electropollution or
directed energy with malicious intent. By 1955 the US Navy was
conducting EMR experiments with UHF (ultra-high frequencies) for the
purpose of targeting individuals, crowds, or armies. The effects could
be scaled up or down, and today are called Non Lethal Weapons (NLW). A
2004, �Military contract for Pulsed Energy Projectile (PEP) Pain Study,
a heavily redacted US Navy contract for development of NLW with the
University of Florida, reveals interesting details of pulsed microwave
directed energy weapons.

�...decades of research and investment of untold millions of rubles in
the process of psycho-corrections has produced the ability to alter
behaviour on willing and unwilling subjects, experts add. The Russian
experts, including George Kotov, a former KGB General, also report a
list of software and hardware associated with their psycho-correction
programme that could be procured for as little as $80,000. As far as it
has become possible to probe and correct psychic contents of human
beings despite their will and consciousness by instrumental means;
results having been achieved can get out of control and be used for
inhumane purposes of manipulating psyche.� (Barbara Opall, Defence
News, January 11�17, 1993).

ULTIMATE WEAPON�THE ENERGY OF NATURE AND LIFE

As described in World As Laboratory: Experiments With Mice, Mazes, and
Men by Rebecca Lemov, Hill and Wang (2005). American POWs returned from
World War II brainwashed and nonresponsive, waiting like cattle on
ships when they arrived, confused and unenthusiastic about being back.
Military heads of staff, puzzled by the mental state of the soldiers,
wondered if they had been subjected to new techniques unknown to the
West. In 1953 Allen Dulles, newly appointed Director of the CIA,
described how �Communist apparatchiks� had turned the soldiers into
robots whereby the victim�s brain:

�... becomes a phonograph playing a disc put on its spindle by an
outside genius over which it has no control ...�

Under Dulles, the Agency soon developed its own programme to explore
control of human behaviour from a CIA list of research areas:

In Britain, mind control research began at the Tavistock Institute in
the 1950s. At Britain�s leading psychiatric research facility, the
�submissive monkey response to the dominant monkey� was of particular
interest to British scientists. After identifying the specific brain
rhythm for docile submissive behaviour, it has been superimposed on the
ELF signal beamed on British microwave transmitters. Britain had
developed radar transmitted with microwave in the 1940s, and was
already advanced in the technology.

It is no surprise that the goal was accomplished, weaponising mind
control, considering the resources invested in it, but the manner in
which it was conducted is a warning. The ultimate weapon, of all
weapons that have been developed, is manipulation of our
electro-magnetic environment. And through this research the most
important scientific discovery has been made ... the nature of life.
The most shocking discovery, for all of humanity, is that this time we
are the�enemy.

The discovery of a complex set of electromagnetic signals in the US
Embassy in Moscow by the CIA in 1962 led to Project Pandora. The
project was set up to investigate �the effects of low level
electromagnetic radiation on man�. Monkeys brought into the Embassy and
exposed had damage to blood and chromosomes. White blood cell counts
were 40 per cent higher (common to incipient leukemia) in some Embassy
personnel, and a physician who did the studies was quoted in the
Associated Press as saying they had found lots of chromosome breaks.
Although the State Department claimed the Moscow signal was never more
than 18 microwatts (relevant Project Pandora records have allegedly
been destroyed), research protocols for the project were as high as
4,000 microwatts. At the 1967 Glassboro talks, President Johnson asked
Premier Kosygin to stop the microwaving of the Embassy but it
continued.

By 1955 the Naval Medical Research Institute began research on
high-power transmitters using short UHF wavelengths which burned
exposed skin. They also �cooked� dogs to death, and developed a crude
electromagnetic flamethrower. This was early experimentation on what
are called today, Non Lethal Weapons (NLW), which can obviously be
lethal. Researcher Sol Michaelson discovered in 1958 that dogs exposed
to UHF wavelengths struggled to get out of their restraints, but for an
unknown reason, continued to face the transmitted beam. In 1960 the
Soviets discovered that UHF wavelengths caused muscle weakness and
lethargy in experiments on rats. By the mid-1960s the Soviets reported
that a microwave beam could produce �eyestrain and blurred vision,
headaches, and loss of concentration. (In Robert O Becker, op.cit )

In 1971 a historic conference was held in Warsaw where scientists from
the USSR Institute of Labour Hygiene and Occupational Diseases
presented a list of symptoms which they called �microwave sickness'.
Low blood pressure and slow pulse were the first symptoms. Later other
common symptoms were:

�... chronic excitation of the sympathetic nervous system (stress
syndrome) and high blood pressure. This phase also often includes
headache, dizziness, eye pain, sleeplessness, irritability, anxiety,
stomach pain, nervous tension, inability to concentrate, hair loss,
plus an increased incidence of appendicitis, cataracts, reproductive
problems, and cancer. The chronic symptoms are eventually succeeded by
crises of adrenal exhaustion and ischemic heart disease (blockage of
coronary arteries and heart attack).� (Robert O. Becker M.D., The Body
Electric).

The Soviets had already set high standards for EMF protection. Dr.
Karel Marha, from the Institute of Industrial Hygiene in Prague,
recommended that a higher standard be adopted in the West:

THE MIND HAS NO FIREWALL

Three American researchers, Ross Adey (communication of cells), Allan
Frey (microwave auditory effect), and Jos� Delgado (electromagnetic
behaviour control), conducted research on communication in the body,
the brain, and behaviour modification in the 1960s and 1970s which
propelled the development of mind control technology.

After participating in the Pandora Project, Ross Adey worked at UCLA
and later established the Brain Research Institute, where he was best
known for his studies on the biologic effects of weak electromagnetic
forces, a paradigm shift that was not always appreciated by mainstream
scientists unwilling to accept new ideas. Despite the resistance he
made major contributions.

In his research he intensely studied the �window effect� where a
certain result would occur at certain frequencies and power levels but
not at others interspersed between the windows. He believed �windows�
would be discovered at fractions of a microwatt, far below what he had
studied. A later study confirmed his belief and suggested changes in
brain waves down to a billionth of a microwatt. He discovered that
�calcium-outflow windows could interfere with functioning of the entire
brain� because amplification of signals in communications between cells
was calcium dependent. This proved to be one of his most important
discoveries. He and his colleagues also demonstrated that behaviour
modification could be achieved by entraining the brain waves of a cat
with microwaves modulated in different ways and then imposing specific
electrical patterns on parts of the brain.

In 1983 he demonstrated a Russian LIDA machine which had a small
transmitter that emitted 10 Hertz waves for tranquilisation and
enhanced suggestibility. The tube was an ancient vacuum-tube design
which a former POW in Korea recognised as similar to ones he had seen
during interrogation. The Koreans and other communist block countries
have used ELF waves for at least 50 years.

Allan Frey, a freelance biophysicist and engineering psychologist,
studied the bioeffects of microwaves for decades, and discovered in
1962 that the perception of sound could be induced with low level
microwave, even in deaf humans.

He also discovered that the permeability of the blood-brain barrier
could be increased with certain pulsed microwave beams, an additional
weapon which enhanced the effects of drugs, bacteria, or poisons.

�Using relatively low-level RFR, it may be possible to sensitise large
military groups to extremely dispersed amounts of biological or
chemical agents to which the unirradiated population would be immune.�
(Tyler, Capt Paul E, MC, US Navy).

�The Electromagnetic Spectrum in Low-Intensity Conflict� 1986 .

By synchronising the pulse rate of a microwave beam with the beat of a
heart isolated from a frog, he could speed up, slow down, or stop the
heart. This was reproduced in live frogs which indicated it was
possible to cause heart attacks with a microwave penetrating the human
chest.

Confirmation came from a 1982 Air Force review of biotechnology:

�... impressed electromagnetic fields can be disruptive to purposeful
behavior and may be capable of directing and/or interrogating such
behavior. Further, the passage of approximately 100 milliamperes
through the myocardium can lead to cardiac standstill and death, again
pointing to a speed-of-light weapons effect.�

�A rapidly scanning RFR system could provide an effective stun or kill
capability over a large area.� (�Final Report on Biotechnology Research
Requirements for Aeronautical Systems Through the Year 2000� USAF).

There were indications that other pulse frequencies could interfere
with metabolic processes. This was demonstrated in simulated muscle
tissue at the Naval Aerospace Medical Research Laboratory in Pensacola.

Jos� Delgado, the psychotic advocate of a �psycho-civilised� society,
began his career in fascist Spain in World War II conducting research
on the use of pain and pleasure for mind control. He was an MKULTRA
experimenter who once demonstrated a radio-controlled bull on CNN in
1985, and stopped it as it charged him by transmitting a radio signal
to an electrode implanted in the bull�s brain.

�We need a programme of psychosurgery and political control of our
society. The purpose is physical control of the mind. Everyone who
deviates from the given norm can be surgically mutilated.

Man does not have the right to develop his own mind. This kind of
liberal orientation has great appeal. We must electrically control the
brain. Some day armies and generals will be controlled by electrical
stimulation of the brain.� (Dr. Jose Delgado, Congressional Record, No.
26, Vol. 118, February 24, 1974)

As Director of Neuropsychiatry at Yale University Medical School, he
refined the design of his �transdermal stimulator�... a computer
controlled, remote neurologic transceiver and aversion stimulator. The
potential of using electrical stimulation of the brain (ESB) for mind
control was mostly explored through his work, but he later shifted to
the biological effects of electromagnetic fields.

In one of his experiments he used a signal on a cat which caused it to
lick its fur and continue compulsively licking the floor and bars of
its cage. In another experiment on a monkey, he triggered the monkey by
stimulating a portion of its brain which caused it to walk back and
forth across its cage, climb to the ceiling and come back down. The
monkey repeated this triggered by the signal as many as 60 times an
hour. He could also trigger monkeys to smile or turn their heads �up to
twenty thousand times in two weeks� no matter what they were doing. He
said, �They looked like electronic toys.�

Implants provide even better transmitters, cochlear implants will send
electrical signals into the fluid of the inner ear. Implants in teeth
or dental fillings pick up radio signals and transmit sound vibrations
through bone conduction. Time Magazine listed a �Phone Tooth� as one of
the best inventions for 2002. When embedded in a molar it can receive
cell phone calls, signals convert to vibrations which travel through
the skull to the inner ear.

TYRANNY WITHOUT TERROR

The danger to all societies is that technologies such as microwave and
radio transmissions, which can impose certain thoughts or moods on
targets or populations, compliance and complacency, and monitoring of
EEG (electro-encephalogram) potentials�all together pose the terrifying
threat of total remote control of society.

An article in the Washington Times on August 22, 2002, �NASA Plans to
Read Terrorist�s Minds at Airports� revealed that Northwest Airlines,
NASA and an unidentified commercial entity had been developing
brain-monitoring (mind reading) devices for airports (since at least
1995). Three other airlines were also involved.

When the documents for a joint project meeting between NASA and
Northwest were requested under a FOIA, the results were shocking. The
project meetings had been ongoing since 1995. Passengers were monitored
at a more intense level at each step, from the time they made a
reservation, to arrival at the airport, when they checked in. The
monitoring included biometrics, personal information from
DARPA/government created databases, both ECG (electrocardiograms) and
EEG (electroencephalograms), and even further redacted information in
the report which was not provided. Physicist Robert Park was
interviewed for the Washington Times, August 17, 2002.

�We�re getting closer to reading minds than you might suppose. It does
make me uncomfortable. That�s the limit of privacy invasion. You can�t
go further than that.�

(Robert Park, spokesman for the American Physical Society).

Park is a Professor of Physics at the University of Maryland, where a
�Thought Machine� was developed for mind control, as reported in the
1970s in the South China Morning Post. Robert Park would understandably
be reluctant to admit that physicists and his society, APS, have been
instrumental as collaborators (theoretical) with electrical engineers
(applied) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers,
Inc. (IEEE) in developing mind control technology.

Defence Electronics reported a spring, 1993, meeting with
psychotronics expert Dr. Igor Smirnov and Clinton Administration
officials. The CIA, FBI, DIA, and ARPA with Clinton officials wanted to
know if psycho-correction programmes could be implemented by the US
government. Not just for domestic riots, this technology could be used
to change the opinion or judgement of decision-makers, key personnel,
or populations. It is a given that psychotronic technology will be used
to suppress political dissidents and other potential threats to the New
World Order.

�...Using electroencephalographs, Smirnov measures brain waves, then
uses computers to create a map of the subconscious and various human
impulses, such as anger or the sex drive. Then through taped subliminal
messages, he claims to physically alter the landscape with the power of
suggestion.� (Newsweek magazine, August 22, 1994).

MIND READING DEVICES

�Alan Yu, a former lieutenant colonel in the Taiwan National Defence
Department, says that the United States has not only developed an
operational mind control machine, but has also distributed models for
use by allied countries. Yu states that such machines pose a great
threat to human rights and the American way of life. He calls the
device the �Mind Reading Machine� (Mind Machine).

�In the spring of 1984, Yu was a lieutenant colonel serving in the
National Defence Department of Taiwan. At that time, Yu read a
classified document from the department that he serviced under. The
document said the Military Police Department of Taiwan had purchased
several of the Mind Reading Machines from the United States (In Taiwan,
it was called Psychological Language Machine).

�� Yu reports that before he left, this machine had become the most
effective weapon for the security departments of Taiwan �

�Demonstrations of this equipment have shown encouraging results after
exposure of less than one minute and have produced the ability to alter
behavior on unwilling subjects.�

(Richard A. Miller, �Conciousness Technologies Conference�, July 2001)

GWEN TOWERS

About the time the Cold War was winding down, Ground Wave Emergency
Network (GWEN) towers were constructed in the 1980s across the United
States. Nearly 300 feet tall with long copper wires coming out of them
in a radial pattern on the ground, they transmit bursts of very low
frequency (VLF) waves at 150�175 KHertz, in a 300 mile circle from the
towers. Messages are transmitted at 20 minute intervals, or hour
intervals if from another source. They have a strange distribution
across the US. They also emit UHF waves of 225�400 MHertz. Their
purpose is not altogether clear. Officially they are for the Continuity
of Government (COG) programme under the Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA) (illegally started by Col. Oliver North as the Federal
Emergency Military Agency) but this may be a cover.

Colonel Paul Hanson, GWEN Programme Director for the Air Force, said:

�The towers will not help wage a nuclear war because they would be
destroyed in any protracted confrontation.�

Because the GWEN system is transistor-based they are particularly
vulnerable to EMP from nuclear strikes. The location of the towers is
well known, leaving them open to attack. Dr. Robert Becker M D believes
they have another purpose:

GWEN is a superb system, in combination with cyclotron resonance, for
producing behavioural alterations in the civilian population. The
average strength of the steady geomagnetic field varies from place to
place across the United States. Therefore, if one wished to resonate a
specific ion in living things in a specific locality, one would require
a specific frequency for that location. The spacing of GWEN
transmitters 200 miles apart across the United States would allow such
specific frequencies to be �tailored� to the geomagnetic-field strength
in each GWEN area.

(Robert O. Becker, M.D., in Crosscurrents: The Perils of
Electropollution).

In 1975 the Soviet journal International Life in a discussion of
electronic mind control, said that large groups of people could
experience suppressed mental activity from atmospheric electricity. The
journal went on to say a sonic generator, tuned to an infrasound
frequency which is below hearing level could create �feelings of
depression, fear, panic, terror, and despair�.

Since the creation of Homeland Security with nearly unlimited funding
after the September 11, 2001, WTC disasters, there are indications that
the GWEN network will be expanded. Because Homeland Security, the
Northern Command (an illegal domestic military administration created
after 911), FEMA, the Justice Department, and Law Enforcement are an
interlocking operation now, the expansion of the GWEN network clearly
has an ominous purpose.

Two of the strongest proponents for NLW/psychotronics are US Army
Colonel John Alexander (retired), in charge of the NLW program at Los
Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) since he retired from the Army in
1988, and Janet Morris. Alexander is a member of the AVIARY, a group of
Department of Defense officers and scientists with a mandate to
discredit any serious UFO research. Each member has a bird�s name and
Alexander is known as PENGUIN, and they are �deep CIA�.

Morris is the Research Director of the US Global Strategy Council
(USGSC) with ties to the CIA and the Federal Government, chaired by Dr
Ray Cline, former Deputy Director of the CIA. Morris �is a key US
liaison between Russian and US Officials�. She has arranged
demonstrations by Russian psychotronic experts for US officials, and
reported that Russians are interested in converting military hardware
to NLW for US use. To hide the covert use of the KGB psychotronic
equipment from the American public, a series of disinformation articles
have appeared in the press about �non-lethals� such as �net, foams,
sticky material to snag an attacker, mace-like compounds, and high-tech
sticky goo shot at fleeing criminals�.

Because the US military is prohibited from developing certain kinds of
weapons, the research and development must be done �outside�, usually
by the DOE (Department of Energy). Colonel Alexander and Janet Morris
are focused on the development and use of psychotronic weapons,
representing the interests of the military, CIA, and ruling elite. The
Los Alamos and Livermore nuclear weapons labs have brought over Russian
scientists and KGB officers to collaborate at the labs and other US
agencies. Russian collaboration has involved not only weapons
development, in this case the psychotronics primarily, but also methods
of political control post-911. KGB Generals have been advisors to
Homeland Security on developing internal checkpoints and internal
passports in the US. It is clear what lies ahead for the American
people... and it�s not �democracy�.

By letting the USSR target America with Woodpecker for an unknown
purpose, the US government was able to conduct a project through
another state thus bypassing US Law. The US has been doing the same for
Russia. Echelon, the NSA satellite surveillance system, has served the
same end. Member countries have been able to spy on their own citizens
by receiving information second-hand from other member countries.

In the mid-1980s, over two dozen scientists working at the Marconi
Corporation in Britain, died mysteriously from �suicides and
accidents�. They were under contract to do classified work for the
British and US Navy. Researchers have reported that some of the project
computer engineers wrote software related to targeting spots on the
body similar to acupuncture spots, with directed energy weapons.
Whatever they were doing, the projects were clearly collaborative
between the US and British military and governments and were highly
classified. In fact, since 911, over 50 world class microbiologists
have been murdered or have died mysteriously, and nearly all were in
the US or Britain. Many were working on ethnic-specific bioweapons.

By the mid to late eightees the psychotronic systems were set up in
the US and Britain. With installation of the GWEN towers and HAARP in
the US, the �show was on the road�. When the Cold War ended in 1992,
all they had to do was �unveil it�.

A classified conference sponsored by the Los Alamos nuclear weapons
lab was held in the Applied Physics Laboratory at Johns Hopkins
University in November 1993. Colonel Alexander served as the conference
Chairman. The meeting was attended by Attorney-General Janet Reno,
numerous scientists, military weapons experts, and intelligence
officials from state and local police departments. The main purpose of
the meeting was to prepare leading law enforcement officials for the
use of psychotronic mind-control weapons. Some of the lectures given
were:

Dr. George Baker from Defence Nuclear Agency: �RF Weapons: A Very
Attractive Non-Lethal Option�

Dr. Clay Easterly from Oak Ridge National Laboratory: �Application of
Extremely Low Frequency Electromagnetic Fields to Non-Lethal Weapons�

�Radio-frequency Weapons, High Powered Microwave Technology, Acoustic
Technology�

Zbiegniew Brzezinski, a Rockefeller recruit and founder of the
Trilateral Commission, had much revealing information to give back in
the seventies about technologies that are being disclosed now. He wrote
in Between two Ages:

�Accurately timed, artificially excited electronic strokes could lead
to a pattern of oscillations that produce relatively high power levels
over certain regions of the Earth ... one could develop a system that
would seriously impair the brain performance of a very large population
in selected regions over an extended period.� (Zbiegniew Brzezinski,
Between Two Ages, 1971).

When an American electropollution activist asked Motorola the purpose
of the 10 hertz frequency on the carrier wave of the new Motorola
police radio system, she did not get an answer (Personal Communications
with Libby Kelley, Chair Marin County Health Council, 2003). From my
own investigations and many interviews, I learned that this system was
beamed across America when the Cold War ended, through Motorola radio
systems, the Police and emergency response radio towers, cell phone
towers, satellites, and another Motorola product �TETRA�in Britain:

Costing �2.9 billion, the UK�s new police communication system TETRA
has been described by one independent scientist as likely to cause
�more civilian deaths than all the world�s terrorist organisations put
together�. (Jay Griffiths, �A Popular Revolt�, The Ecologist, September
17, 2004)

Death may be the hidden purpose, for �culling� society. Welcome to the
New World Order.

WEATHER MODIFICATION

The earth and atmosphere rotate more or less at the same speed. The
sun�s radiation provides energy to heat the earth, and differences in
relative motion between the atmosphere and the earth depend on
perturbations of energy and distribution. Ocean currents and the
enormous heat capacity of the oceans are coupled with and control
global climate. The amounts of energy in weather systems�hurricanes,
tornadoes, thunderstorms�are far greater than what is under our direct
control so it would be very difficult to directly modify them.
Successful weather modification is more likely to occur by manipulating
instabilities in the atmosphere.

An excellent example of the government/military application of weather
on a regional scale is the impact of atmospheric nuclear weapons tests
conducted by nuclear states during the period of atmospheric and
underground testing which began in the 1940s and continued through the
early 1990s. No country wanted to admit nuclear testing was dangerous,
but at the same time nuclear states did not want to damage the health
and genetic future of their own citizens, with the exception of the US.
The location of nuclear weapons test sites and timing of tests were
carefully and strategically planned, again with the exception of the
United States.

Seasonal monsoon systems brought fallout and rainout of nuclear
materials to India and Pakistan from nuclear tests in China, Kazakhstan
and Australia. This resulted in contamination of the Himalayas with
rainout and snowout of fission products into the headwaters of the
major rivers of Southeast Asia. Chinese testing in the Gobi Desert and
in Kazakhstan by the Soviets overtly protected their own populations
from the dangerous consequences of nuclear exposure, and covertly
passed the risk on to nations downstream from the Himalayas. The truth
is now emerging that populations in Egypt, the Arabian peninsula,
India, Pakistan, and Australia have suffered the long-term
environmental and health consequences of exposure to radioactive iodine
and fission products from those tests. These are the countries affected
by the monsoon, with the highest rates of diabetes in the Indian Ocean
region, reported in 3.1�5.0 per cent of their populations. The United
States stands out as the country that nuclear bombed North America,
including Hawaii, Alaska, and Canada with serious health consequences,
with 7.1�16.7 per cent of their populations suffering from diabetes.
The Center for Disease Control recently predicted that one in three
children born in the United States in 2000 will become diabetic, an
acknowledgement of the possible long-term effects of the �nuclear
weapons� and nuclear power programmes. Damage from exposures even if
DNA is not damaged, can be passed on to the progeny of those exposed,
including reduced mental abilities.

The southeast Asian region will be exposed to high levels of radiation
if a war against Iran is staged by the US and Israel. NSA former
analyst Wayne Madsen reported on January 2, 2006, that the Chinese
authorities have already warned southeast Asian nations that the
radiation from the use of tactical nuclear��weapons and depleted
uranium weaponry (dirty bombs, dirty missiles, and dirty bullets) will
cause radioactive contamination during the monsoon season.

�Southeast Asian intelligence sources report that Burma�s (Myanmar�s)
recent abrupt decision to move its capital from Rangoon (Yangon) to
remote Pyinmana, 200 miles to the north, is a result of Chinese
intelligence warnings to its Burmese allies about the effects of
radiation resulting from a US conventional or tactical nuclear attack
on Iranian nuclear facilities. There is concern that a series of
attacks on Iranian nuclear installations will create a Chernobyl-like
radioactive cloud that would be caught up in monsoon weather in the
Indian Ocean.�

�Low-lying Rangoon lies in the path of monsoon rains that would
continue to carry radioactive fallout from Iran over South and
Southeast Asia between May and October. Coastal Indian Ocean cities
like Rangoon, Dhaka, Calcutta, Mumbai, Chennai, and Colombo would be
affected by the radioactive fallout more than higher elevation cities
since humidity intensifies the effects of the fallout. Thousands of
government workers were given only two days� notice to pack up and
leave Rangoon for the higher (and drier) mountainous
Pyinmana.�(http://www.waynemadsenreport.com/dec30-jan606.htm)

HURRICANE KATRINA

Storm modification can have major strategic and economic implications.
Hurricane Katrina appears to have been a manipulated economic hit on
New Orleans... it would not be the first time.

�We finally cleaned up public housing in New Orleans. We couldn�t do
it, but God did.�

(Rep. Richard Baker (R-LA) to lobbyists, as quoted in the Wall Street
Journal).

Engineering the forced relocation of the poor and black from their
property, allows a vertical transfer of wealth upwards.

Manipulation of hurricanes may be possible by modifying the transfer
of energy from the ocean into the atmosphere, increasing or dissipating
hurricane strength, and other technologies which allow hurricanes to be
�dragged�. The irregularities of nature are a convenient cover for
manipulated events with hidden economic, military, or political
benefits.

The hurricane Katrina disaster was not only shocking to people around
the world, it forced Americans to painfully confront the ugly truth,
overwhelming racism and genocide, the hidden-white only��democracy� of
America. It was a devastating psychic trauma for all Americans.
Abandoned by their state, communities across America and survivors of
New Orleans understood they had to �deal with it� on their own... on
their own meager savings and retirements while disaster profiteers
�pigged out� at the public trough.

Was Hurricane Katrina manipulated by weather modification technology?
NASA photo53 from Hurricane Katrina eyewall images taken on Sunday,
August 28, 2005, during a NOAA P-3 hurricane hunter flight, at the time
the storm was a Category Five storm seems to suggest it. What is the
beam pointed directly into the eye of the hurricane?

US Military experiments on environmental engineering have been
chemical or wave-related, and are well documented. In 1958 Chief White
House adviser on weather modification, Captain Howard T. Orville, said
the US Department of Defence (DoD) was studying �ways to manipulate the
charges of the earth and sky and so affect the weather� by using an
electronic beam to ionize or de-ionize the atmosphere over a given
area. Canada was a partner in this research, from the start, and
launched satellites into the ionosphere in 1962. Two other early
experiments were Project Skyfire and Project Stormfury when the DoD was
experimenting with lightning and hurricanes during the Vietnam War.

UCLA Professor Gordon J.F. MacDonald, a member of the President�s
Science Advisory Committee in 1966, and later a member of the
President�s Council on Environmental Quality, published papers on
environmental-control technologies for military purposes and suggested
many, but warned later about the impact on the environment. In 1968 in
his chapter �How to Wreck the Environment� in the book Unless Peace
Comes, he described �the use of weather manipulation, climate
modification, polar ice cap melting or destabilisation, ozone depletion
techniques, earthquake engineering, ocean wave control and brain wave
manipulation using the planet�s energy fields�.

CLIMATE MODIFICATION

By 1965 research on climate change was pioneered by three research
groups: the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory, UCLA�s Department of
Meteorology, and the National Center for Atmospheric Research. Between
1965 and 1975, interest increased and proliferated new studies, the
main ones being the RAND Corporation (Santa Monica, CA) funded by the
US Air Force, Goddard Institute for Space Studies (New York, NY) funded
by NASA, and the Australian Numerical Meteorological Research Centre
(Melbourne, Australia). It is interesting that studies in climate
modification funded by the military surfaced in this period. In order
to determine whether or not it was possible, reasearch had to be done
on climate variations under natural conditions. During this same period
large projects to study climate change from the ice record began in
Antarctica (1973) and Greenland (1977). Projects that seem innocuous on
their own, when put together and integrated, had a very different
purpose.

Early modeling studies focused on coupled atmosphere-ocean models, and
spectral transform techniques. Research on the influence of carbon
dioxide on climate under natural conditions used information from the
ice record. Later, research began on the influence of man on climate
change, or �inadvertent climate modification� from pollution-induced
�changes in climate, ocean ecology, or in large terrestrial
ecosystems�. By the 1970s environmentalists introduced stratospheric
ozone depletion, acid rain, and upper-atmosphere pollution from
supersonic planes as climatic concerns.

Two areas of instabilities can be used to modify the climate�energy
coming from the Sun, or energy escaping from the atmosphere of the
earth. Huge manmade energetic explosions high up in the atmosphere used
to trigger instabilities, might be possible at some time in the future;
in fact the Navy exploded 3 nuclear bombs in the Van Allen belt in 1958
under Project Argus and violently disrupted it. Modification of
long-wave outgoing radiation, changes in the transparency of the
earth�s atmosphere to radiated energy, or of terrestrial regions
(desert, vegetation, water, ice) provide the most likely possibilities
for human �technogenic� intervention. The military has long wanted to
eliminate civilian participation in space programmes in order to gain
full control.

The �New World Order� is being rolled out with exotic weapons that
were developed collaboratively and secretly throughout the Cold War.
The National Missile Defence fraud is being forced by the USA on
unwilling countries around the world, at a cost of $1 trillion for the
biggest corporate welfare project in world history.

Well I thought I would share this with you all..After
reading this I sent it to our House Represntive Mike
Conway..Not that it will do any good but want know if
I don't try. It's better than complaing all the time.
Maybe you could send it to yours?
Always a friend;
Deb :) ~j~

I don't know how everybody else feels about it, but to
me I think Hispanic people in this country, legally or
illegally, made a huge public relations mistake with
their recent demonstrations. I don't blame anybody in
the world for wanting to come to the United States of
America, as it is a truly wonderful place. But when
the first thing you do when you set foot on American
soil is illegal it is flat out wrong and I don't care
how many lala land left heads come out of the woodwork
and start trying to give me sensitivity lessons. I
don't need sensitivity lessons; in fact I don't have
anything against Mexicans! I just have something
against criminals and anybody who comes into this
country illegally is a criminal and if you don't
believe it try coming into America from a foreign
country without a passport and see how far you get.

What disturbs me about the demonstrations is that it's
tantamount to saying, "I am going to come into your
country even if it means breaking your laws and
there's nothing you can do about it." It's an "in your
face" action and speaking just for me I don't like it
one little bit and if there were a half dozen pairs of
gonads in Washington bigger than English peas it
wouldn't be happening. Where are you, you bunch of
lily livered, pantywaist, forked tongued, sorry
excuses for defenders of The Constitution? Have you
been drinking the water out of the Potomac again?

And even if you pass a bill on immigration it will
probably be so pork laden and watered down that it
won't mean anything anyway. Besides, what good is any
other law going to do when you won't enforce the ones
on the books now?

And what ever happened to the polls guys? I thought
you folks were the quintessential finger wetters. Well
you sure ain't paying ;any attention to the polls this
time because somewhere around eighty percent of
Americans want something done about this mess, and
mess it is and getting bigger everyday. This is no
longer a problem; it is a dilemma and headed for being
a tragedy. Do you honestly think that what happened in
France with the Muslims can't happen here when the
businesses who hire these people finally run out of
jobs and a few million disillusioned Hispanics take to
the streets?

If you, Mr. President, Congressmen and Senators,
knuckle under on this and refuse to do something
meaningful it means that you care nothing for the kind
of country your children and grandchildren will
inherit. But I guess that doesn't matter as long as
you get re-elected. Shame on you.

One of the big problems in America today is that if
you have the nerve to say anything derogatory about
any group of people (except Christians) you are going
to be screamed at by the media and called a racist, a
bigot and anything else they can think of to call you.
Well I've been pounded by the media before and I'm
still rockin' and rollin' and when it comes to
speaking the truth I fear not. And the truth is that
the gutless, gonad-less, milksop politicians are just
about to sell out the United States of America because
they don't have the intestinal fortitude to stand up
to the face reality. And reality is that we would
never allow any other group of people to have 12
million illegals in this country and turn around and
say, "Oh it's ok, ya'll can stay here if you'll just
allow us to slap your wrist."

And I know that some of you who read this column are
saying "Well what's wrong with that?" I'll tell you
what's wrong with it. These people could be from Mars
as far as we know. We don't know who they are, where
they are or what they're up to and the way the
Congress is going we're not going to. Does this make
sense? Labor force you say? We already subsidize
corporate agriculture as it is, must we subsidize
their labor as well? If these people were from Haiti
or if they were from Somalia or Afghanistan would we
be so fast to turn a blind eye to them? I think not.

All the media shows us are pictures of hard working
Hispanics who have crossed the border just to try to
better their life. They don't show you pictures of the
Feds rounding up members of MS 13, the violent gang
who came across the same way the decent folks did.
They don't tell you about the living conditions of the
Mexican illegals some fat cat hired to pick his crop.

I want to make two predictions. No. 1: This situation
is going to grow and fester until it erupts in
violence on our streets while the wimps in Washington
drag their toes in the dirt and try to figure how many
tons of political hay they can make to the acre.

No 2: Somebody is going to cross that border with some
kind of weapon of mass destruction and set it off in a
major American city after which there will be a
backlash such as this country has never experienced
and the Capitol building in Washington will probably
tilt as Congressmen and Senators rush to the other
side of the issue.

I don't know about you but I would love to see just
one major politician stand up and say, "I don't care
who I make mad and I don't care how many votes I lose,
this is a desperate situation and I'm going to lead
the fight to get it straightened out."

I don't blame anybody for wanting to come to America,
but if you don't respect our immigration laws why
should you respect any others.

And by the way, this is America and our flag has stars
and stripes. Please get that other one out of my face.


Pray for our troops

What�s At Stake?
A message from Ramsey Clark

George W. Bush and his principal officials are the greatest threat to world peace, to human rights, to economic justice, to the Constitution of the United States and the rule of law that the American people and the world at large face today. His personal, unilateral war of aggression has wrecked Iraq, taken 250,000 lives or more, created tensions worldwide and significantly isolated the United States, costing us international friendships, trust, respect and alliances. War of aggression was judged to be �the Supreme International Crime� by the Nuremberg Tribunal.

Proclaiming himself the �Decider,� President Bush insists he decides what is right. He threatens North Korea, Cuba, Syria, Sudan, Venezuela, and most critically at the moment, Iran. The threats themselves violate international law and the U.N. Charter. His threats are made real by his personal record of false claims followed by arbitrary acts including the criminal aggression against and occupation of Iraq with its painful consequences just beginning for Iraq and the world. The additional U.S. military costs approach a trillion dollars and the occupation stretches the limits of U.S. military capacity. Yet he has ordered detailed plans for attacks on Iran that he could order to be executed as early as this summer. He may believe some radical action can save his presidency.

Iran has more than three times the population of Iraq. It was not debilitated by the Gulf War which cost Iraq more than 150,000 lives and destroyed its basic infrastructure. Thirteen years of sanctions, from Hiroshima Day, August 6, 1990 to �Mission Accomplished� Day �ending� the war of aggression against Iraq announced from the deck of the USS Abraham Lincoln by President Bush on May 1, 2003, cost Iraq 1 million lives, half children under the age of five. Iraq suffered near total isolation. Without international commerce, or the ability to rebuild, Iraq�s economy was devastated. It suffered physically and psychologically from frequent punitive bombings by U.S. aircraft throughout the sanctions period. Iran�s economy and power fueled by its oil, grew steadily through all these years.

Nothing could unify Iran like a military strike against it by the U.S. Few acts could better convince Muslims worldwide that George Bush is on a crusade against them. Iran with its long border with Iraq could radically alter political alignments and the level of conflict in Iraq and serve as an open conduit for fighters from many nations. Violence could spread from Egypt to neighboring Pakistan and beyond.

The Geneva Conventions prohibit assaults on �inherently dangerous� facilities, which would threaten civilian populations. Nuclear power plants are the prime example. Iran has a right to develop such plants. The Shah had ambitious plans 30 years ago, well financed and advanced, to construct nuclear plants across Iran to replace depleting oil reserves. Iran is six years or more away from the ability to build nuclear warheads if that is its purpose. The U.S. could incinerate Iran with a single launch from its worldwide land, sea and air nuclear missile capacity in place and alert today. Iran knows this. Surely it is better to seek to stop threatening and start seeking better relations and understanding with Iran and other nations that may be hostile.

Aside from the criminal nature of an attack on Iran, further aggressions by George Bush could put the United States in a rapid decline in international standing, economically and military on the defense, globally and at home.

This is only to suggest what might happen if George Bush remains President. The immediate question is whether We, the People of the United States of America, believe the future of our country is a spectator sport, or whether we will be players.

Will we let George Bush decide the fate of the nation?

Have his judgment and actions been acceptable?

With thirty-two months remaining in his Presidency, George Bush can inflict greater, even devastating injury on our people and the poor of the rest of the planet. He has squandered the largest federal surplus in history and created the largest national debt with his determination to be a War President and his ambition to enrich the rich.

He continues increasing military expenditures including the unlawful development of a new generation of nuclear weapons and a �Star Wars� shield for the U.S., insuring an arms race and increasing the probability of war.

His threats against other governments have strengthened opposition to the U.S. throughout the Muslim world, Latin American, former Soviet Union bloc countries, China, Africa and even West Europe.

President Bush�s tax cuts and �Free Trade� pressures have accelerated the concentration of wealth in oligarchies at home and abroad and further impoverished the poor. Nearly 1/3 of his tax cuts have gone to the top one percent of the population. When his estate tax cuts take hold the top one percent of the population will receive 40% of his tax cuts.

The number of billionaires is increasing rapidly while incomes of workers and the poor decline and organized labor continue to decline. And tax cuts combined with increased military expenditures and increasing deficits in balance of payments which make the U.S. the largest debtor nation are compelling cuts in federal expenditures for health care, education, social security, Medicare, humanitarian foreign aid and other needed programs for the poor. The real income of college graduates fell more than 5% from 2000 to 2004 under President Bush, eroding the middle class while concentrating wealth in the few. The richest ten percent of the population received more than half of all his tax cuts benefits.

But the concentration of wealth is accelerating most rapidly in the top 1/100th of one percent, about 30,000 individuals. The rise in income of these very rich has been astronomical. Just look at the growing number of billionaires and the bonuses and stock options of corporate CEO�s.

President Bush�s contempt for human rights and civil liberties is unprecedented in the American Presidency. He is not only above international law, he is above the Bill of Rights. He can arrest and detain people worldwide, including U.S. citizens, as enemy combatants. He condones torture. He wiretaps U.S. citizens and foreigners alike without court approval. Proclamations concerning his Presidential powers by his Attorneys General, Ashcroft and Gonzales, have stunned the international community. Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo now symbolize U.S. regard for human dignity. Yet George Bush proclaims himself the champion of freedom and democracy!

Katrina is only one measure of the incompetence and indifference of the Bush Administration. Secretary of State Rice has acknowledged thousands of mistakes in Iraq without acknowledging the greatest mistake: the unilateral criminal invasion and occupation.

President Bush adheres ideologically to the belief that global warming is not caused in major part by the ever increasing human consumption of oil and other hydrocarbons.

He believes he can bully the world into accepting his way and the American people into accepting his decisions as right. For him, his ideology is truth. He professed to believe, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. Because Iraq was "evil," and the U.S. is free and democratic, he believes Iraq should be controlled by the U.S. Iran is racing to develop nuclear weapons in his view, because of its dangerous hatred for freedom and democracy and must be stopped by force now. His truth translated into force has done more to damage freedom and democracy at home and abroad than all the �evil empires� he threatens. For him, his tax cuts, free trade policies and deficits benefited the poor and lower income groups most, if not in dollars, because his ideology holds that when the oligarchy rule, all will fare better.

The imperative need is action now. We cannot risk delay.

If the American people fail to impeach George Bush and his principal officials for his war of aggression, the world can only see the American people as either powerless, or supportive of it. If he is charged only, or primarily, with misleading, or lying to the American people, the world can only believe the American people will accept mass murder if it is not lied about.

Why should any other nation refrain from Wars of Aggression against oil rich states and others unable to defend themselves if they believe they can win and get away with it, while the U.S. proceeds with impunity with its threats and attacks?

Impeachment is essential to the integrity of constitutional government. It is the most urgent duty of the American people. We have the power to cause impeachment, if we have the will.

Letter to Stu

Dear Stu,

Our impeachment ads in the New York Times, San Francisco Chronicle, and Boston Globe show that we can make a difference. They broke the media silence on the call for Impeachment and have helped spark widespread discussion of the grounds and basis for taking this necessary constitutional step. The ads have reached millions of people and generated tens of thousands of new votes for impeachment.

The New York Times carried the Impeachment message in the first section, full page, to readers of more than a million copies of the National Edition and the New York Edition of the New York Times. The most recent ad in the San Francisco Chronicle reached people all over Northern California.

We are planning for the next ad to appear soon in the USA Today newspaper. The impeachment movement will reach people all over the country with this next ad. We can continue to place these ads with the contributions of those are committed to the impeachment movement. Please help by making a contribution. You can make a donation on-line or by sending a check. Click here to help with your donation.

Spreading the word with more newspaper ads, getting more people to vote for Impeachment, increasing our organizing and fundraising efforts - this can make Impeachment a major issue in the 2006 midterm Congressional elections. A committed effort over the next months can move Impeachment to the forefront in the elections and to the floor of the House of Representatives which has the "sole power of Impeachment," and onto the Senate for trial.

Ads in newspapers in Congressional Districts can help activate impeachment organizing to bring the issue home to members and candidates where their election will be decided.

Depleted Uranium - Far Worse Than 9/11-GlobalResearch

"...If terrorists succeeded in spreading something throughout the U.S. that ended up causing hundreds of thousands of cancer cases and birth defects over a period of many years, they would be guilty of a crime against humanity that far surpasses the Sept. 11th attacks in scope and severity. Although not deliberate, with our military campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan, we have done just that. If the physical environment is so unsafe and unhealthy that one cannot safely breath, then the outer trappings of democracy have little meaning. At least under Saddam, the Iraqi people could stay healthy and conceive normal children. Few Americans are aware that in getting rid of Saddam, we left something much worse in his place."

Prior to her death from leukemia in Sept. 2004, Nuha Al Radi , an accomplished Iraqi artist and author of the "Baghdad Diaries" wrote: "Everyone seems to be dying of cancer. Every day one hears about another acquaintance or friend of a friend dying. How many more die in hospitals that one does not know? Apparently, over thirty percent of Iraqis have cancer, and there are lots of kids with leukemia." "The depleted uranium left by the U.S. bombing campaign has turned Iraq into a cancer-infested country. For hundreds of years to come, the effects of the uranium will continue to wreak havoc on Iraq and its surrounding areas."

This excerpt in her diary was written in 1993, after Gulf War I (Approximately 300 tons of DU ordinance, mostly in desert areas) but before Operation Iraqi Freedom, (Est. 1,700 tons with much more near major population centers). So, it's 5-6 times worse now than it was when she wrote than diary entry!! Estimates of the percentage of D.U. which was 'aerosolized' into fine uranium oxide dust are approximately 30-40%. That works out to over one million pounds of dust scattered throughout Iraq. As a special advisor to the World Health Organization, the United Nations, and the Iraqi Ministry of Health, Dr. Ahmad Hardan has documented the effects of DU in Iraq between 1991 and 2002.

"American forces admit to using over 300 tons of DU weapons in 1991. The actual figure is closer to 800. This has caused a health crisis that has affected almost a third of a million people. As if that was not enough, America went on and used 200 tons more in Bagdad alone during the recent invasion."


Depleted Uranium - Far Worse Than 9/11
Depleted Uranium Dust - Public Health Disaster For The People Of Iraq and Afghanistan

by Doug Westerman

In 1979, depleted uranium (DU) particles escaped from the National Lead Industries factory near Albany, N.Y.,which was manufacturing DU weapons for the U.S military. The particles traveled 26 miles and were discovered in a laboratory filter by Dr. Leonard Dietz, a nuclear physicist. This discovery led to a shut down of the factory in 1980, for releasing morethan 0.85 pounds of DU dust into the atmosphere every month, and involved a cleanup of contaminated properties costing over 100 million dollars.

Imagine a far worse scenario. Terrorists acquire a million pounds of the deadly dust and scatter it in populated areas throughout the U.S. Hundreds of children report symptoms. Many acquire cancer and leukemia, suffering an early and painful death. Huge increases in severe birth defects are reported. Oncologists are overwhelmed. Soccer fields, sand lots and parks, traditional play areas for kids, are no longer safe. People lose their most basic freedom, the ability to go outside and safely breathe. Sounds worse than 9/11? Welcome to Iraq and Afghanistan.

Dr. Jawad Al-Ali (55), director of the Oncology Center at the largest hospital in Basra, Iraq stated, at a recent ( 2003) conference in Japan:

"Two strange phenomena have come about in Basra which I have never seen before. The first is double and triple cancers in one patient. For example, leukemia and cancer of the stomach. We had one patient with 2 cancers - one in his stomach and kidney. Months later, primary cancer was developing in his other kidney--he had three different cancer types. The second is the clustering of cancer in families. We have 58 families here with more than one person affected by cancer. Dr Yasin, a general Surgeon here has two uncles, a sister and cousin affected with cancer. Dr Mazen, another specialist, has six family members suffering from cancer. My wife has nine members of her family with cancer".

"Children in particular are susceptible to DU poisoning. They have a much higher absorption rate as their blood is being used to build and nourish their bones and they have a lot of soft tissues. Bone cancer and leukemia used to be diseases affecting them the most, however, cancer of the lymph system which can develop anywhere on the body, and has rarely been seen before the age of 12 is now also common.",

"We were accused of spreading propaganda for Saddam before the war. When I have gone to do talks I have had people accuse me of being pro-Saddam. Sometimes I feel afraid to even talk. Regime people have been stealing my data and calling it their own, and using it for their own agendas. The Kuwaitis banned me from entering Kuwait - we were accused of being Saddam supporters."

John Hanchette, a journalism professor at St. Bonaventure University, and one of the founding editors of USA TODAY related the following to DU researcher Leuren Moret. He stated that he had prepared news breaking stories about the effects of DU on Gulf War soldiers and Iraqi citizens, but that each time he was ready to publish, he received a phone call from the Pentagon asking him not to print the story. He has since been replaced as editor of USA TODAY.

Dr. Keith Baverstock, The World Health Organization's chief expert on radiation and health for 11 years and author of an unpublished study has charged that his report " on the cancer risk to civilians in Iraq from breathing uranium contaminated dust " was also deliberately suppressed.

The information released by the U.S. Dept. of Defense is not reliable, according to some sources even within the military.

In 1997, while citing experiments, by others, in which 84 percent of dogs exposed to inhaled uranium died of cancer of the lungs, Dr. Asaf Durakovic, then Professor of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine at Georgetown University in Washington was quoted as saying,

"The [US government's] Veterans Administration asked me to lie about the risks of incorporating depleted uranium in the human body."

At that time Dr. Durakovic was a colonel in the U.S. Army. He has since left the military, to found the Uranium Medical Research Center, a privately funded organization with headquarters in Canada.

PFC Stuart Grainger of 23 Army Division, 34th Platoon. (Names and numbers have been changed) was diagnosed with cancer several after returning from Iraq. Seven other men in the Platoon also have malignancies.

Doug Rokke, U.S. Army contractor who headed a clean-up of depleted uranium after the first Gulf War states:,

"Depleted uranium is a crime against God and humanity."

Rokke's own crew, a hundred employees, was devastated by exposure to the fine dust. He stated:

"When we went to the Gulf, we were all really healthy,"

After performing clean-up operations in the desert (mistakenly without protective gear), 30 members of his staff died, and most others"including Rokke himself"developed serious health problems. Rokke now has reactive airway disease, neurological damage, cataracts, and kidney problems.

"We warned the Department of Defense in 1991 after the Gulf War. Their arrogance is beyond comprehension.

Yet the D.O.D still insists such ingestion is "not sufficient to make troops seriously ill in most cases."

Then why did it make the clean up crew seriously or terminally ill in nearly all cases?

Marion Falk, a retired chemical physicist who built nuclear bombs for more than 20 years at Lawrence Livermore Lab, was asked if he thought that DU weapons operate in a similar manner as a dirty bomb.

"That's exactly what they are. They fit the description of a dirty bomb in every way."

According to Falk, more than 30 percent of the DU fired from the cannons of U.S. tanks is reduced to particles one-tenth of a micron (one millionth of a meter) in size or smaller on impact. "The larger the bang" the greater the amount of DU that is dispersed into the atmosphere, Falk said. With the larger missiles and bombs, nearly 100 percent of the DU is reduced to radioactive dust particles of the "micron size" or smaller, he said.

When asked if the main purpose for using it was for destroying things and killing people, Falk was more specific:

"I would say that it is the perfect weapon for killing lots of people."

When a DU round or bomb strikes a hard target, most of its kinetic energy is converted to heat " sufficient heat to ignite the DU. From 40% to 70% of the DU is converted to extremely fine dust particles of ceramic uranium oxide (primarily dioxide, though other formulations also occur). Over 60% of these particles are smaller than 5 microns in diameter, about the same size as the cigarette ash particles in cigarette smoke and therefore respirable.

Because conditions are so chaotic in Iraq, the medical infrastructure has been greatly compromised. In terms of both cancer and birth defects due to DU, only a small fraction of the cases are being reported.

Doctors in southern Iraq are making comparisons to the birth defects that followed the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in WWII. They have numerous photos of infants born without brains, with their internal organs outside their bodies, without sexual organs, without spines, and the list of deformities goes on an on. Such birth defects were extremely rare in Iraq prior to the large scale use of DU. Weapons. Now they are commonplace. In hospitals across Iraq, the mothers are no longer asking, "Doctor, is it a boy or girl?" but rather, "Doctor, is it normal?" The photos are horrendous, they can be viewed on the following website

Ross B. Mirkarimi, a spokesman at The Arms Control Research Centre stated:

"Unborn children of the region are being asked to pay the highest price, the integrity of their DNA."

Prior to her death from leukemia in Sept. 2004, Nuha Al Radi , an accomplished Iraqi artist and author of the "Baghdad Diaries" wrote:

"Everyone seems to be dying of cancer. Every day one hears about another acquaintance or friend of a friend dying. How many more die in hospitals that one does not know? Apparently, over thirty percent of Iraqis have cancer, and there are lots of kids with leukemia."

"The depleted uranium left by the U.S. bombing campaign has turned Iraq into a cancer-infested country. For hundreds of years to come, the effects of the uranium will continue to wreak havoc on Iraq and its surrounding areas."

This excerpt in her diary was written in 1993, after Gulf War I (Approximately 300 tons of DU ordinance, mostly in desert areas) but before Operation Iraqi Freedom, (Est. 1,700 tons with much more near major population centers). So, it's 5-6 times worse now than it was when she wrote than diary entry!! Estimates of the percentage of D.U. which was 'aerosolized' into fine uranium oxide dust are approximately 30-40%. That works out to over one million pounds of dust scattered throughout Iraq.

As a special advisor to the World Health Organization, the United Nations, and the Iraqi Ministry of Health, Dr. Ahmad Hardan has documented the effects of DU in Iraq between 1991 and 2002.

"American forces admit to using over 300 tons of DU weapons in 1991. The actual figure is closer to 800. This has caused a health crisis that has affected almost a third of a million people. As if that was not enough, America went on and used 200 tons more in Bagdad alone during the recent invasion.

I don"t know about other parts of Iraq, it will take me years to document that.

"In Basra, it took us two years to obtain conclusive proof of what DU does, but we now know what to look for and the results are terrifying."

By far the most devastating effect is on unborn children. Nothing can prepare anyone for the sight of hundreds of preserved fetuses " scarcely human in appearance. Iraq is now seeing babies with terribly foreshortened limbs, with their intestines outside their bodies, with huge bulging tumors where their eyes should be, or with a single eye-like Cyclops, or without eyes, or without limbs, and even without heads. Significantly, some of the defects are almost unknown outside textbooks showing the babies born near A-bomb test sites in the Pacific.

Dr. Hardan also states:

"I arranged for a delegation from Japan's Hiroshima Hospital to come and share their expertise in the radiological diseases we

Are likely to face over time. The delegation told me the Americans had objected and they decided not to come. Similarly, a world famous German cancer specialist agreed to come, only to be told later that he would not be given permission to enter Iraq."

Not only are we poisoning the people of Iraq and Afghanistan, but we are making a concerted effort to keep out specialists from other countries who can help. The U.S. Military doesn"t want the rest of the world to find out what we have done.

Such relatively swift development of cancers has been reported by doctors in hospitals treating civilians following NATO bombing with DU in Yugoslavia in 1998-1999 and the US military invasion of Iraq using DU for the first time in 1991. Medical experts report that this phenomenon of multiple malignancies from unrelated causes has been unknown until now and is a new syndrome associated with internal DU exposure.
Just 467 US personnel were wounded in the three-week Persian Gulf War in 1990-1991. Out of 580,400 soldiers who served in Gulf War I, 11,000 are dead, and by 2000 there were 325,000 on permanent medical disability. This astounding number of disabled vets means that a decade later, 56 percent of those soldiers who served in the first Gulf War now have medical problems.

Although not reported in the mainstream American press, a recent Tokyo tribunal, guided by the principles of International Criminal Law and International Humanitarian Law, found President George W. Bush guilty of war crimes. On March 14, 2004, Nao Shimoyachi, reported in The Japan Times that President Bush was found guilty "for attacking civilians with indiscriminate weapons and other arms,"and the "tribunal also issued recommendations for banning Depleted Uranium shells and other weapons that indiscriminately harm people." Although this was a "Citizen's Court" having no legal authority, the participants were sincere in their determination that international laws have been violated and a war crimes conviction is warranted.

Troops involved in actual combat are not the only servicemen reporting symptoms. Four soldiers from a New York Army National Guard company serving in Iraq are among several members of the same company, the 442nd Military Police, who say they have been battling persistent physical ailments that began last summer in the Iraqi town of Samawah.

"I got sick instantly in June," said Staff Sgt. Ray Ramos, a Brooklyn housing cop. "My health kept going downhill with daily headaches, constant numbness in my hands and rashes on my stomach."

Dr. Asaf Durakovic, UMRC founder, and nuclear medicine expert examined and tested nine soldiers from the company says that four "almost certainly" inhaled radioactive dust from exploded American shells manufactured with depleted uranium. Laboratory tests revealed traces of two manmade forms of uranium in urine samples from four of the soldiers.

If so, the men - Sgt. Hector Vega, Sgt. Ray Ramos, Sgt. Agustin Matos and Cpl. Anthony Yonnone - are the first confirmed cases of inhaled depleted uranium exposure from the current Iraq conflict.

The 442nd, made up for the most part of New York cops, firefighters and correction officers, is based in Orangeburg, Rockland County. Dispatched to Iraq in Easter of 2003, the unit's members had been providing guard duty for convoys, running jails and training Iraqi police. The entire company is due to return home later this month.

"These are amazing results, especially since these soldiers were military police not exposed to the heat of battle," said Dr. Asaf Duracovic, who examined the G.I.s and performed the testing.

In a group of eight U.S. led Coalition servicemen whose babies were born without eyes, seven are known to have been directly exposed to DU dust. In a much group (250 soldiers) exposed during the first Gulf war, 67% of the children conceived after the war had birth defects.

Dr. Durakovic's UMRC research team also conducted a three-week field trip to Iraq in October of 2003. It collected about 100 samples of substances such as soil, civilian urine and the tissue from the corpses of Iraqi soldiers in 10 cities, including Baghdad, Basra and Najaf. Durakovic said preliminary tests show that the air, soil and water samples contained "hundreds to thousands of times" the normal levels of radiation.

"This high level of contamination is because much more depleted uranium was used this year than in (the Gulf War of) 1991," Durakovic told The Japan Times.

"They are hampering efforts to prove the connection between Depleted Uranium and the illness," Durakovic said

"They do not want to admit that they committed war crimes" by using weapons that kill indiscriminately, which are banned under international law."

(NOTE ABOUT DR. DURAKOVIC; First, he was warned to stop his work, then he was fired from his position, then his house was ransacked, and he has also reported receiving death threats. Evidently the U.S. D.O.D is very keen on censoring DU whistle-blowers!)

Dr. Durakovic, UMRC research associates Patricia Horan and Leonard Dietz, published a unique study in the August 2002 issue ofMilitary Medicine Medical Journal. The study is believed to be the first to look at inhaled DU among Gulf War veterans, using the ultrasensitive technique of thermal ionization mass spectrometry, which enabled them to easily distinguish between natural uranium and DU. The study, which examined British, Canadian and U.S. veterans, all suffering typical Gulf War Syndrome ailments, found that, nine years after the war, 14 of 27 veterans studied had DU in their urine. DU also was found in the lung and bone of a deceased Gulf War veteran. That no governmental study has been done on inhaled DU "amounts to a massive malpractice," Dietz said in an interview.

The Japanese began studying DU effects in the southern Iraq in the summer of 2003. They had a Geiger counter which they watched go off the scale on many occasions. During their visit,a local hospital was treating upwards of 600 children per day, many of which suffered symptoms of internal poisoning by radiation. 600 children per day? How many of these children will get cancer and suffer and early and painful death?

"Ingested DU particles can cause up to 1,000 times the damage of an X-ray", said Mary Olson, a nuclear waste specialist and biologist at the Nuclear Information and Resource Service in Washington D.C.

It is this difference in particle size as well as the dust's crystalline structure that make the presence of DU dust in the environment such an extreme hazard, and which differentiates its properties from that of the natural uranium dust that is ubiquitous and to which we all are exposed every day, which seldom reaches such a small size. This point is being stressed, as comparing DU particles to much larger natural ones is misleading.

The U.S. Military and its supporters regularly quote a Rand Corp. Study which uses the natural uranium inhaled by miners.

Particles smaller than 10 microns can access the innermost recesses of lung tissue where they become permanently lodged. Furthermore, if the substance is relatively insoluble, such as the ceramic DU-oxide dust produced from burning DU, it will remain in place for decades, dissolving very slowly into the bloodstream and lymphatic fluids through the course of time. Studies have identified DU in the urine of Gulf War veterans nine years after that conflict, testifying to the permanence of ceramic DU-oxide in the lungs. Thus the effects are far different from natural uranium dust, whose coarse particles are almost entirely excreted by the body within 24 hours.

The military is aware of DU's harmful effects on the human genetic code. A 2001 study of DU's effect on DNA done by Dr. Alexandra C. Miller for the Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute in Bethesda, Md., indicates that DU's chemical instability causes 1 million times more genetic damage than would be expected from its radiation effect alone.

Studies have shown that inhaled nano-particles are far more toxic than micro-sized particles of the same basic chemical composition. British toxicopathologist Vyvyan Howard has reported that the increased toxicity of the nano-particle is due to its size.

For example, when mice were exposed to virus-size particles of Teflon (0.13 microns) in a University of Rochester study, there were no ill effects. But when mice were exposed to nano-particles of Teflon for 15 minutes, nearly all the mice died within 4 hours.

"Exposure pathways for depleted uranium can be through the skin, by inhalation, and ingestion," writes Lauren Moret, another DU researcher. "Nano-particles have high mobility and can easily enter the body. Inhalation of nano-particles of depleted uranium is the most hazardous exposure, because the particles pass through the lung-blood barrier directly into the blood.

"When inhaled through the nose, nano-particles can cross the olfactory bulb directly into the brain through the blood brain barrier, where they migrate all through the brain," she wrote. "Many Gulf era soldiers exposed to depleted uranium have been diagnosed with brain tumors, brain damage and impaired thought processes. Uranium can interfere with the mitochondria, which provide energy for the nerve processes, and transmittal of the nerve signal across synapses in the brain.

Based on dissolution and excretion rate data, it is possible to approximate the amount of DU initially inhaled by these veterans. For the handful of veterans studied, this amount averaged 0.34 milligrams. Knowing the specific activity (radiation rate) for DU allows one to determine that the total radiation (alpha, beta and gamma) occurring from DU and its radioactive decay products within their bodies comes to about 26 radiation events every second, or 800 million events each year. At .34 milligrams per dose, there are over 10 trillion doses floating around Iraq and Afghanistan.

How many additional deaths are we talking about? In the aftermath of the first Gulf War, the UK Atomic Energy Authority came up with estimates for the potential effects of the DU contamination left by the conflict. It calculated that "this could cause "500,000 potential deaths". This was "a theoretical figure", it stressed, that indicated "a significant problem".

The AEA's calculation was made in a confidential memo to the privatized munitions company, Royal Ordnance, dated 30 April 1991. The high number of potential deaths was dismissed as "very far from realistic" by a British defense minister, Lord Gilbert. "Since the rounds were fired in the desert, many miles from the nearest village, it is highly unlikely that the local population would have been exposed to any significant amount of respirable oxide," he said. These remarks were made prior to the more recent invasions of both Afghanistan and Iraq, where DU munitions were used on a larger scale in and near many of the most populated areas. If the amount of DU ordinance used in the first Gulf War was sufficient to cause 500,000 potential deaths, (had it been used near the populated areas), then what of the nearly six times that amount used in operation Iraqi Freedom, which was used in and near the major towns and cities? Extrapolating the U.K. AEA estimate with this amount gives a figure of potentially 3 million extra deaths from inhaling DU dust in Iraq alone, not including Afghanistan. This is about 11% of Iraq's total population of 27 million. Dan Bishop, Ph.d chemist for IDUST feels that this estimate may be low, if the long life of DU dust is considered. In Afghanistan, the concentration in some areas is greater than Iraq.

What can an otherwise healthy person expect when inhaling the deadly dust? Captain Terry Riordon was a member of the Canadian Armed Forces serving in Gulf War I. He passed away in April 1999 at age 45. Terry left Canada a very fit man who did cross-country skiing and ran in marathons. On his return only two months later he could barely walk.

He returned to Canada in February 1991 with documented loss of motor control, chronic fatigue, respiratory difficulties, chest pain, difficulty breathing, sleep problems, short-term memory loss, testicle pain, body pains, aching bones, diarrhea, and depression. After his death, depleted uranium contamination was discovered in his lungs and bones. For eight years he suffered his innumerable ailments and struggled with the military bureaucracy and the system to get proper diagnosis and treatment. He had arranged, upon his death, to bequeath his body to the UMRC. Through his gift, the UMRC was able to obtain conclusive evidence that inhaling fine particles of depleted uranium dust completely destroyed his heath. How many Terry Riordans are out there among the troops being exposed, not to mention Iraqi and Afghan civilians?

Inhaling the dust will not kill large numbers of Iraqi and Afghan civilians right away, any more than it did Captain Riordan. Rather, what we will see is vast numbers of people who are chronically and severely ill, having their life spans drastically shortened, many with multiple cancers.

Melissa Sterry, another sick veteran, served for six months at a supply base in Kuwait during the winter of 1991-92. Part of her job with the National Guard's Combat Equipment Company "A" was to clean out tanks and other armored vehicles that had been used during the war, preparing them for storage.

She said she swept out the armored vehicles, cleaning up dust, sand and debris, sometimes being ordered to help bury contaminated parts. In a telephone interview, she stated that after researching depleted uranium she chose not to take the military's test because she could not trust the results. It is alarming that Melissa was stationed in Kuwait, not Iraq. Cleaning out tanks with DU dust was enough to make her ill.

In, 2003, the Christian Science Monitor sent reporters to Iraq to investigate long-term effects of depleted uranium. Staff writer Scott Peterson saw children playing on top of a burnt-out tank near a vegetable stand on the outskirts of Baghdad, a tank that had been destroyed by armor-piercing shells coated with depleted uranium. Wearing his mask and protective clothing, he pointed his Geiger counter toward the tank. It registered 1,000 times the normal background radiation. If the troops were on a mission of mercy to bring democracy to Iraq, wouldn"t keeping children away from such dangers be the top priority?

The laws of war prohibit the use of weapons that have deadly and inhumane effects beyond the field of battle. Nor can weapons be legally deployed in war when they are known to remain active, or cause harm after the war concludes. It is no surprise that the Japanese Court found President Bush guilty of war crimes.

Dr. Alim Yacoub of Basra University conducted an epidemiological study into incidences of malignancies in children under fifteen years old, in the Basra area (an area bombed with DU during the first Gulf War). They found over the 1990 to 1999 period, there was a 242% rise. That was before the recent invasion.

In Kosovo, similar spikes in cancer and birth defects were noticed by numerous international experts, although the quantity of DU weapons used was only a small fraction of what was used in Iraq.

FIELD STUDY RESULTS FROM AFGHANISTAN

Verifiable statistics for Iraq will remain elusive for some time, but widespread field studies in Afghanistan point to the existence of a large scale public health disaster. In May of 2002, the UMRC (Uranium Medical Research Center) sent a field team to interview and examine residents and internally displaced people in Afghanistan. The UMRC field team began by first identifying several hundred people suffering from illnesses and medical conditions displaying clinical symptoms which are considered to be characteristic of radiation exposure. To investigate the possibility that the symptoms were due to radiation sickness, the UMRC team collected urine specimens and soil samples, transporting them to an independent research lab in England.

UMRC's Field Team found Afghan civilians with acute symptoms of radiation poisoning, along with chronic symptoms of internal uranium contamination, including congenital problems in newborns. Local civilians reported large, dense dust clouds and smoke plumes rising from the point of impact, an acrid smell, followed by burning of the nasal passages, throat and upper respiratory tract. Subjects in all locations presented identical symptom profiles and chronologies. The victims reported symptoms including pain in the cervical column, upper shoulders and basal area of the skull, lower back/kidney pain, joint and muscle weakness, sleeping difficulties, headaches, memory problems and disorientation.

Two additional scientific study teams were sent to Afghanistan. The first arrived in June 2002, concentrating on the Jalalabad region. The second arrived four months later, broadening the study to include the capital Kabul, which has a population of nearly 3.5 million people. The city itself contains the highest recorded number of fixed targets during Operation Enduring Freedom. For the study's purposes, the vicinity of three major bomb sites were examined. It was predicted that signatures of depleted or enriched uranium would be found in the urine and soil samples taken during the research. The team was unprepared for the shock of its findings, which indicated in both Jalalabad and Kabul, DU was causing the high levels of illness. Tests taken from a number of Jalalabad subjects showed concentrations 400% to 2000% above that for normal populations, amounts which have not been recorded in civilian studies before.

Those in Kabul who were directly exposed to US-British precision bombing showed extreme signs of contamination, consistent with uranium exposure. These included pains in joints, back/kidney pain, muscle weakness, memory problems and confusion and disorientation. Those exposed to the bombing report symptoms of flu-type illnesses, bleeding, runny noses and blood-stained mucous. How many of these people will suffer a painful and early death from cancer? Even the study team itself complained of similar symptoms during their stay. Most of these symptoms last for days or months.

In August of 2002, UMRC completed its preliminary analysis of the results from Nangarhar. Without exception, every person donating urine specimens tested positive for uranium contamination. The specific results indicated an astoundingly high level of contamination; concentrations were 100 to 400 times greater than those of the Gulf War Veterans tested in 1999. A researcher reported. "We took both soil and biological samples, and found considerable presence in urine samples of radioactivity; the heavy concentration astonished us. They were beyond our wildest imagination."

In the fall of 2002, the UMRC field team went back to Afghanistan for a broader survey, and revealed a potentially larger exposure than initially anticipated. Approximately 30% of those interviewed in the affected areas displayed symptoms of radiation sickness. New born babies were among those displaying symptoms, with village elders reporting that over 25% of the infants were inexplicably ill.

How widespread and extensive is the exposure? A quote from the UMRC field report reads:

"The UMRC field team was shocked by the breadth of public health impacts coincident with the bombing. Without exception, at every bombsite investigated, people are ill. A significant portion of the civilian population presents symptoms consistent with internal contamination by uranium."

In Afghanistan, unlike Iraq, UMRC lab results indicated high concentrations of NON-DEPLETED URANIUM, with the concentrations being much higher than in DU victims from Iraq. Afghanistan was used as a testing ground for a new generation of "bunker buster" bombs containing high concentrations of other uranium alloys.

"A significant portion of the civilian population"? It appears that by going after a handful of terrorists in Afghanistan we have poisoned a huge number of innocent civilians, with a disproportionate number of them being children.

The military has found depleted uranium in the urine of some soldiers but contends it was not enough to make them seriously ill in most cases. Critics have asked for more sensitive, more expensive testing.

------------------------------------

According to an October 2004 Dispatch from the Italian Military Health Observatory, a total of 109 Italian soldiers have died thus far due to exposure to depleted uranium. A spokesman at the Military Health Observatory, Domenico Leggiero, states "The total of 109 casualties exceeds the total number of persons dying as a consequence of road accidents. Anyone denying the significance of such data is purely acting out of ill faith, and the truth is that our soldiers are dying out there due to a lack of adequate protection against depleted uranium". Members of the Observatory have petitioned for an urgent hearing "in order to study effective prevention and safeguard measures aimed at reducing the death-toll amongst our serving soldiers".

There were only 3,000 Italian soldiers sent to Iraq, and they were there for a short time. The number of 109 represents about 3.6% of the total. If the same percentage of Iraqis get a similar exposure, that would amount to 936,000. As Iraqis are permanently living in the same contaminated environment, their percentage will be higher.

The Pentagon/DoD have interfered with UMRC's ability to have its studies published by managing, a progressive and persistent misinformation program in the press against UMRC, and through the use of its control of science research grants to refute UMRC's scientific findings and destroy the reputation of UMRC's scientific staff, physicians and laboratories. UMRC is the first independent research organization to find Depleted Uranium in the bodies of US, UK and Canadian Gulf War I veterans and has subsequently, following Operation Iraqi Freedom, found Depleted Uranium in the water, soils and atmosphere of Iraq as well as biological samples donated by Iraqi civilians. Yet the first thing that comes up on Internet searches are these supposed "studies repeatedly showing DU to be harmless." The technique is to approach the story as a debate between government and independent experts in which public interest is stimulated by polarizing the issues rather than telling the scientific and medical truth. The issues are systematically confused and misinformed by government, UN regulatory agencies (WHO, UNEP, IAEA, CDC, DOE, etc) and defense sector (military and the weapons developers and manufacturers).

Dr. Yuko Fujita, an assistant professor at Keio University, Japan who examined the effects of radioactivity in Iraq from May to June, 2003, said : "I doubt that Iraq is fabricating data because in fact there are many children suffering from leukemia in hospitals," Fujita said. "As a result of the Iraq war, the situation will be desperate in some five to 10 years."

The March 14, 2004 Tokyo Citizen's Tribunal that "convicted" President Bush gave the following summation regarding DU weapons: (This court was a citizen's court with no binding legal authority)

1. Their use has indiscriminate effects;

2. Their use is out of proportion with the pursuit of military objectives;

3. Their use adversely affects the environment in a widespread, long term and severe manner;

4. Their use causes superfluous injury and unnecessary suffering.

Two years ago, President Bush withdrew the United States as a signatory to the International Criminal Court's statute, which has been ratified by all other Western democracies. The White House actually seeks to immunize U.S. leaders from war crimes prosecutions entirely. It has also demanded express immunity from ICC prosecution for American nationals.

CONCLUSIONS:

If terrorists succeeded in spreading something throughout the U.S. that ended up causing hundreds of thousands of cancer cases and birth defects over a period of many years, they would be guilty of a crime against humanity that far surpasses the Sept. 11th attacks in scope and severity. Although not deliberate, with our military campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan, we have done just that. If the physical environment is so unsafe and unhealthy that one cannot safely breath, then the outer trappings of democracy have little meaning. At least under Saddam, the Iraqi people could stay healthy and conceive normal children. Few Americans are aware that in getting rid of Saddam, we left something much worse in his place.

Snip from book section:


Sample Page from Book 2

As a preface to understanding, I think it necessary to go through the
standard phases of "waking up."

1. An Individual vaguely perceives something is wrong in his/her life.
This takes the form of fatigue at trying to "keep up" with real or
imaginary crisis, encroachment of government into every aspect of
life, increasing taxationand so on. Sometimes it takes the loss of
work and the realization that the safety net they contributed to has a
gaping hole in the middle.

2. The individual discovers that justice is a joke and that all control
mechanisms go up like a pyramid, taking their property, taxes etc.
with it. This wealth then is distributed to "help bail-out" or "prop-up"
"failing" transnational corporations. Left-overs are channeled via
Overseas Developement Corporations to "developing nations,"
where the loot is pocketed by front-men and their beaurocrats.
Crumbs filter down to social services, which, after being guzzled by
directors and staff, leave little for the needy except bundles of forms,
in triplicate, of course.

3. The individual looks around for others already exposing "the
conspiracy." These established champions inform him which
"conspiracy" books to read. Having then done so, the individual
begins to "expose" the corruption, first to friends, then when
friendless, he either publishes what he has gleaned or becomes
paranoid and withdraws from society altogether.

Why does the waking-up process fail to spread quickly through
society?

1. He is terribly naive. He believes the massive corruption "just
happened" to begin in his own lifetime, otherwise mummy or daddy
or teacher would have warned him. It does not occur to him that his
Parents, teachers etc. were as conditioned as he was.

2. Most people do not wish to know. They, like farm animals, have
been domesticated. Wild animals (original) have natural instincts of
self-preservation. They sense the evil intentions of predators and
they survive by trusting their instincts. Wild herds do not "hang
around" when one or more members drops dead. Specially bred
sheep do.

3. Pavlovian conditioning/response indoctrination has been fed to
every individual, through schooling. The media then takes over.
Peoples' opinions are simply sound-bites from news, talk-shows or
quotes from glossy magazines.

4. Trust replaces the instinct of self-preservation. It over-rides
memory and logic. Controllers and shepherds encourage trust.

5. When threatened with loss of possessions, property, access to
health care, etc., people turn to government(predators) for help,
or/and organized religion. Should an individual persist in pushing for
his "rights," he will be removed from society and placed in a
psychiatric hospital or prison on any number of pretexes. The
alternative is death by "accident," or shot by police while 'resisting
arrest.'

Jews Nervous About Iran-Israel Linkage by Bush

Jewish Week (New York)

http://www.thejewishweek.com/news/newscontent.php3?artid=12350

President Bush is risking a backlash that could injure the Jewish community -
and his own cause - by repeatedly citing Israel as his top rationale for
possible U.S. military conflict with Iran, Jewish leaders and Middle East
analysts warned. Bush's repeated, sometimes exclusive, focus on Israel could
spark public fury against the Jewish state and Jews if U.S. military action is
accompanied by skyrocketing gas prices, terrorism at home or fallen GI"s who
might be seen as dying for Israel, some said.

-- excuse me? have you any evidence for this claim - or even for the
euthanasia-by-gassing story? because I have a hell of a lot of evidence AGAINST
it - the euthansias were performed by lethal injection, the supposed gassing
sites are easily examined (unlike the Operation Reinhard sites) and are clearly
not gassing sites at all.

(3) It's Not Either / Or - The Israel Lobby, by NORMAN G. FINKELSTEIN

Date: Wed, 3 May 2006 11:30:32 +0100 From: Rowan Berkeley
<rowan.berkeley@googlemail.com>

Finkelstein is quite wrong here:

"The claim that Israel has become a liability for U.S. "national" interests in
the Middle East misses the bigger picture. Sometimes what's most obvious escapes
the eye. Israel is the only stable and secure base for projecting U.S. power in
this region. Every other country the U.S. relies on might, for all anyone knows,
fall out of U.S. control tomorrow. The U.S.A. discovered this to its horror in
1979, after immense investment in the Shah. On the other hand, Israel was a
creation of the West; it's in every respect - culturally, politically,
economically - in thrall to the West, notably the U.S. This is true not just at
the level of a corrupt leadership, as elsewhere in the Middle East but - what's
most important - at the popular level. Israel's pro-American orientation exists
not just among Israeli elites but also among the whole population. Come what may
in Israel, it's inconceivable that this fundamental orientation will change.
Combined with its overwhelming military power, this makes Israel a unique and
irreplaceable American asset in the Middle East."

He mistakes, or purports to mistake, the sticky idealisation of the USA
currently affected by the Israeli media for actual affection. Many targets of
this sticky idealisation have been deceived by it in the past - this is
virtually the leitmotif of Israel's relationship to its successive imperial
protectors.

Do you mean "Tiao Jin Jiao"?

"The Jewish community of China, known as the Tiao Jin Jiao, flourished for over
a thousand years, building synagogues and study halls, until eventually
assimilating into mainstream Chinese culture in the 19th century."

(5) DU causes birth defects and cancers in Afghanistan

Date: Wed, 3 May 2006 22:41:48 EDT From: TILLAWI@aol.com

Prof Mohammed Daud Miraki:

DEATH MADE IN AMERICA (Afghanistan) (Wondering if your conscience is still
anesthetized)

AMERICAN CRIMES AND ORGANIZED CRIMES:

With the collapse of Taliban, a very profitable, yet nasty sector of the economy
has risen to new heights. Organized crime is an extension of what used to be
warlords and their armies of bandits. With the warlords and other officials of
the Northern Alliance occupying official positions, their former foot soldiers
are equipped with new weapons and Toyota trucks, Landcruisers, with only one aim
to kidnap people from diverse backgrounds for large sums of money. Once the
money is secured, the government officials, who are also leading these bandits,
keep 80 percent for themselves and 20 percent for their men.

URANIUM MUNITIONS:

Due to the use of a massive amount of uranium munitions by the US forces in the
initial bombing, subsequently, a massive amount of congenital deformities have
occurred all over Afghanistan. The rate of various cancers has gone up
significantly. Leukemia and esophageal cancers are very high among children.
According to doctors at maternity and children's hospitals in Kabul, the rate of
various congenital deformities have increased by many fold since the US

Uranium Medical Research Center after their investigators made to trips to
Afghanistan and collected urine and soil samples. They established that the rate
of man made isotopes has gone up 2000 times in some subjects located near the
bombed areas.

China starts receiving oil through pipeline from Kazakhstan

Beijing: Energy-hungry China has started receiving crude oil through a
cross-border pipeline from oil-rich Kazakhstan, meeting the communist giant's
need for a stable and sustainable mode of supply.

The crude oil arrived at the Alataw Pass in northwest China's Xinjiang, after a
1,800-kilometre "trudge" early this week, media reports here said.

China has readied the Alataw Pass-Dushanzi crude oil pipeline within the country
to receive transmitted oil. Experts indicate that this means that Kazakhstan
will start to supply oil to China this May, marking the beginning of the age of
China's oil supply through trans-frontier land-way pipelines.

The Sino-Kazakhstan oil pipeline starts from Atyrau, a coastal city in
Kazakhstan, in the west and finally reaches Dushanzi Petrochemical Company Ltd.
In China's Xinjiang, with the whole length exceeding 3,000 kilometres.

Only half of the recent 10 million tonnes of crude oil will come from Kazakhstan
and the other half will be provided by Russia, director of the China Energy
Strategy Research Institute, Xia Yishan was quoted as saying by China News
Service.

This pipeline indicates the strong energy cooperation relationship among China,
Kazakhstan and Russia, Xia said.

In terms of specific functions of this oil pipeline, he said it is conducive to
China's strategy of diversified oil supply.

Cheney's Trip to Kazakhstan Takes Him to Oil's `Final Frontier'
http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=10000103&sid=az_wEKMhgsJk&refer=us

May 3 (Bloomberg) -- Vice President Dick Cheney's trip to Kazakhstan this week
takes him to a land at the crossroads of the Bush administration's most pressing
foreign-policy challenges: Russia, China, Iran and the global clamor for oil.

Awash in crude oil and natural gas reserves, Kazakhstan is one of a few nations
that experts say has the capacity to expand energy output. It's wedged between
the growing economic influences of China and Russia and may emerge as an
alternative source of oil as the U.S. seeks to isolate Iran over that country's
nuclear development program.

Cheney's talks Friday with Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev, between stops
in Lithuania and Croatia, come at a critical time. Americans are in the midst of
what U.S. Energy Secretary Samuel Bodman has called a crisis because of rising
gasoline prices driven by insufficient supply, and in Kazakhstan sits one of the
world's 10 largest oil fields.

"The Caspian basin is one the final frontiers of today's energy development,"
said Ariel Cohen, senior research fellow at the Heritage Foundation, a
Washington-based research group. "It is important to get this oil to the global
markets, preferably bypassing Russian chokeholds." ...

The difficulty is getting Kazakh oil to the industrial world without going
through Russia. A key issue in Cheney's talks in the Kazakh capital of Astana is
encouraging the Nazarbayev government to develop a pipeline across the Caspian
Sea that connects to another extending from the Azerbaijani capital of Baku,
through the Georgian capital of Tbilisi and out of the Turkish port of Ceyhan on
the Mediterranean Sea. ...

(8) China secures Oil Exploration pacts across Africa

Energy-hungry China clinches oil exploration pacts with Kenya

Fri Apr 28, 2:03 PM ET
http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20060428/sc_afp/chinaafricakenyaoil_060428130657

NAIROBI (AFP) - China inked oil exploration deals with Kenya as visiting
President Hu Jintao continued his African quest to quench China's
near-insatiable demand for energy to fuel its booming economy.

The China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) said Friday that the
agreement covered production-sharing contracts for six blocks off Kenya's Indian
Ocean coast covering 115,343 square kilometers (44,534 square miles).

"Signing of these six (contracts) indicates CNOOC Limited has successfully
extended its overseas exploration activities to east Africa," the company said
in a statement released in Hong Kong.

"This vast area has attractive untapped exploration potential, although it is
not yet a mature oil and gas producing area," it said, adding that the
exploration of the blocks would be divided into three phases.

The statement gave no additional details of the contracts signed by acting
Kenyan energy minister Henry Obwocha and CNOOC subsidiary CNOOC Africa Limited.

Chinese and Kenyan officials in Nairobi were reluctant to discuss specifics and
a joint communique released after talks between Hu and Kenyan President Mwai
Kibaki made no reference to the deals.

But Obwocha told AFP the deals allowed China free access to explore the blocks
with payments to be made only if reserves are discovered.

"We have not made the agreement on money value," he said. "The Chinese will pay
for the exploration expenses. If they don't find oil, they make a loss but if
they strike oil, we go into a business production and sharing deal."

The joint communique said only that China and Kenya agreed to strengthen their
cooperation in the energy field and other sectors.

Hu arrived in Kenya from Nigeria where he sealed a multi-billion dollar
petroleum deal. Analysts see his five-nation tour, which earlier brought him to
the United States, Saudi Arabia and Morocco, as a way to bolster ties with
oil-exporting countries.

Chinese oil consumption is expected to rise from 6.59 million barrels per day in
2005 to 6.95 million this year as its once largely agrarian economy continues
its rapid industrialisation and more of its citizens buy cars.

Last year China bought 38.47 million tonnes of African oil, representing about
30 percent of the country's total imports, and nine percent more than in 2004.
Its biggest African suppliers were Angola, Sudan and Republic of Congo,
according to Chinese figures.

If Kenya's potential Indian Ocean reserves are proven by CNOOC, they would
augment the east African oil the country is already importing from fields in
Sudan.

In addition to the oil agreement, the two sides also signed several other
cooperation deals and China gave Kenya grants of 70 million yuan (8.7 million
dollars, seven million euros).

The grants include a 60-million-yuan economic and technical cooperation package
and donations of rice for drought victims and anti-malaria drugs worth five
million yuan each.

Kenya is key to China's extension of clout in east Africa, and bilateral trade
between the two nations shot up nearly 30 percent between 2004 and 2005 to 475
million dollars (382 million euros), according to official statistics.

"We welcome very much the trade we are doing with China and we look forward to
doing much more and getting closer and more friendly with that country," Kibaki
said.

Hu's visit comes eight months after Kibaki traveled to China where he secured
loans and grants for Kenya worth 35 million dollars (28 million euros).

(9) Will Germany arrest Iranian President for Holocaust Denial, if he attends
World Cup?

Football-mad President may fall foul of Holocaust law

Roger Boyes, The Times (London), May 04, 2006
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/newspaper/0,,173-2163656,00.html

FORGET football hooligans. The thorniest dilemma facing Germany as it prepares
to host the World Cup is what to do about Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Iran's hardline
President, if he insists on coming to watch his team play next month. Germany is
obliged to admit the head of state of a participating nation, and the
tournament's official motto is "A Time To Make Friends". But Mr Ahmadinejad has
demanded Israel's destruction and has repeatedly denied the Holocaust - a crime
in Germany.

Iran's first match is in Nuremberg, used by Hitler for his mass rallies, and
German neo-Nazis are planning a march in support of Mr Ahmadinejad. Israel,
Iranian exiles and German politicians are demanding he be kept away. "The
question is whether Germany as host can prevent the visit of a head of state who
has shown himself to be a repulsive and embarrassing anti-Semite," Ehud Olmert,
the Israeli Prime Minister, said. "The spirit of the World Cup is in absolute
contradiction to the spirit that he represents."

An editorial in the Jerusalem Post accused Germany of trading with Iran and
appeasing its nuclear ambitions: "Germany's behaviour toward Iran is a clear
sign that for all its Holocaust memorialising, for all its anti-Nazi
legislation, and for all its protestations of friendship with Israel and the
Jewish people, Germany has not learnt the lessons of the Holocaust."

Edmund Stoiber, prime minister of Bavaria, said: "Such a man is not welcome."
But the German Government is pressing ahead. Wolfgang Sch�uble, the Interior
Minister, says that the President "can naturally come to the matches".
Differences of opinion over the Holocaust, Israel and nuclear power could be
aired during the visit. Herr Sch�uble's deputy, August Hanning, a former
Security Service chief, has agreed with Tehran that there should be no political
demonstrations in the stadiums. The two states will also exchange intelligence
on possible threats.

For Iranian exiles, expected to attend the matches against Mexico, Angola and
Portugal in large numbers, that smacks of appeasement. "Naturally we are worried
that information from the Germans will be used against our families in Iran,"
said Hassan Nayeb-Agha, who played as a midfielder for Iran in the 1978 World
Cup. "We must not let the Iranian regime misuse the World Cup in the same way
that Hitler did with the 1936 Olympic Games."

Iran is expected to decide if Mr Ahmadinejad should travel to Germany within the
next few days, but there is little doubt that he wants to go. "Our President
loves soccer," said Muhammad Ali Dadkan, head of the Iranian Football
Association, as he inspected the Nuremberg pitch last month. One Israeli lawyer
living in Germany has lodged an application with the federal prosecutor to serve
an international arrest warrant on the President as soon as he gets off the
plane. Mr Ahmadinejad would, however, probably enjoy diplomatic immunity and
some lawyers doubt that his denial of the Holocaust breaches German law as his
comments were made abroad.

(10) The "Arab house" - housing as a part of the Israeli-Palestinian struggle

'Entrepreneur's dream, historian's nightmare'

By David Kroyanker

Since 1948, the "Arab house" has been centrally featured in Palestinian
propaganda on the Nakba (catastrophe), the dispossession of Arab lands and
homes. In recent years, several Israeli intellectuals and academic figures have
joined in. Groups like Zokhrot (remembering) organize trips to abandoned Arab
villages and battle for their preservation as part of the collective memory of
the Palestinian people.

In some instances, Israeli society has tried to erase the identity of Arab
villages and neighborhoods in urban areas by changing their original names -
particularly after the 1948 War of Independence. For example, during that
period, government and municipal authorities changed the name of the Jerusalem
neighborhood Katamon to Gonen, and Talbieh to Kommemiut. Fortunately for
Jerusalem historiography, some of the names did not catch on, and few today call
Abu Tor "Givat Hanina" or Musrara "Morasha."

Erasing historical memory

In 1991, the Government Names Committee officially changed the name of the
picturesque Arab village of Lifta, on the outskirts of Jerusalem, to "Mei
Naftoah" - to mark the western border of the ancient tribe of Judah. Some
consider this name change part of the erasure of historical memory and evidence
of the existence of a Palestinian village that was built hundreds of years prior
to the establishment of the State of Israel.

The Palestinian use of the houses for political purposes stems, among other
things, from the symbolic importance of the home, which is both political and
national. Tom Segev, in his book, "One Palestine, Complete: Jews and Arabs Under
the British Mandate," describes the effort and the love invested by famous
Palestinian educator Khalil Sakakini in the construction of his house in the
Katamon neighborhood in 1937. He kept a record of the project, Segev writes, as
though it were his national home, and decided to give each room a name: Sana and
Damascus, Cordoba, Baghdad and Cairo. He called the gates of the house "The
Gates of Eternity."

Private Arab construction is sporadic compared to official Jewish national
construction, which is arranged around the central city and is a central
component of the Israeli-Palestinian struggle. The illegally built Arab house,
constructed mainly on city margins, stems from a genuine need to meet the
housing requirements of the growing Arab population, as well as from "political
needs." Seizure of territory and the determination of geographic-physical and
demographic facts on the ground, through government confiscations and the
building of illegal settlements, constitute the answer to the proliferation of
Jews in East Jerusalem. In the past, Arab families received financial assistance
from Saudi Arabia as an incentive to build homes on the periphery of the city.

When Ariel Sharon openly purchased a house for himself in the Muslim Quarter of
the Old City, the act was first and foremost a political statement, designed to
emphasize the importance of a physical Jewish presence in Arab territory.

Over the years, attempts have been made to compare the expulsion of the Arabs
and the abandonment of their homes during the 1948 War of Independence (the
Nakba) to the traumatic events of the Holocaust of European Jewry. In her
memoirs, Hala Sakakini, Khalil's daughter, describes her visit in July 1967 to
her former home in Katamon, which now serves as a kindergarten. She met two
women there, to whom she tried to explain the reason for her visit: "This is our
house. We lived here before 1948. This is the first time I've seen it in 19
years. The older woman seemed to be moved, but immediately began to tell us that
she had also lost a home in Poland, as though we personally or the Arabs in
general are to blame for that. We saw that there was no point in arguing with
her."

'Jerusalem's flower garden'

Immediately after the unification of Jerusalem, in the summer of 1967, families
who lived in the former Arab neighborhoods until 1948 started visiting. In his
autobiographical book, "The Day of the Long Night: A Palestinian Refugee
Remembers the Nakba," Jamil Toubbeh, the son of the mukhtar of Katamon,
discusses his feelings after a visit to the neighborhood where he grew up. He
was particularly touched by "the eternal existence and the Palestinian nature of
what was once 'Jerusalem's flower garden.' In spite of the fact that the
neighborhood was densely populated mainly by Jewish families from Europe, it
retained its Palestinian character. My parents' little house, the place where I
was born and spent my childhood, was destroyed. The lot on which the house stood
had unfortunately been turned into an entrepreneur's dream and a historian's
nightmare."

Hala Sakakini mentions that the houses in Katamon were built "in a simple,
modern architectural style, and in spite of that, each house had its own
identity. The Jerusalem Arab was always considered a proud person, maybe even
arrogant. Just as his outward appearance reflects his personality, so does the
house in which he lived."

Among the traditional characteristics of "Arab construction," one can include
high-quality construction, careful attention to planning, facade design with
stone detail, particular interior and surrounding gardens. Most Arab
architecture at the end of the Ottoman period and during the British Mandate
period (and some during our period), points to the importance that the Arabs
attribute to the status of the house, and reflects the planning and financial
effort, and the great love invested in its construction. Over the years, the
concept "Arab construction" lost its true significance, and in the eyes of part
of the Israeli public became a synonym for careless construction and inferior
finishing. That is because during the years of abundance, before the first
intifada and the Al- Aqsa Intifada, non-professional Jewish contractors carried
out poor-quality construction work with the help of hard-up Arab laborers.

Arab houses in demand

After 1967, the "Arab house" was in demand on the real estate market, mainly by
members of the middle class and well-to-do new immigrants from Western
countries, in particular, who invested in the purchase and renovation of homes.
Buying an "Arab house" was the fulfillment of a dream: a house with a yard,
stone wall and stylized gate; a balcony with an arcade; vaulted ceilings in a
romantic and picturesque architectural style and colored floor tiles.

For years, Arab construction, especially in rural areas, has served as a source
of inspiration for modern Israeli architecture. Its character, which has
attracted local architects since the 1920s, is essentially an adaptation to the
natural landscape and integration into it. Architect Erich Mendelssohn, who
avoided Oriental ornamentation in all the buildings he designed, nevertheless
placed three domes on top of the entrance building to Hadassah Hospital that was
dedicated on Mt. Scopus in 1939, so that they would serve as an architectural
reflection of the houses in the adjacent Arab village.

The Old City and its wall, like the houses of the Muslim Quarter, served as an
important source of inspiration for the public housing projects that were built
on the periphery of Jerusalem after its unification. The graduated construction,
the interior courtyards, the arcades, the gate structures, the rounded windows,
the recesses and the reliefs - all of these, which are all elements of Arab
construction, enjoyed renewed popularity in "neo-Oriental" buildings, most of
which were designed with an overabundance of forms.

(11) Telecom companies want to hijack the Internet

Hijacking the Internet

03.15.06

The original telecom monopoly, AT&T, is now re-emerging as the big clunky ogre
that was once broken up.

By John C. Dvorak

A look at the white papers and articles archived on the Center for Digital
Democracy's Web site reveals paper after paper on how the telecom companies want
to make the Internet into a tiered service, so that your 1.5-Mbps service is not
the same as my 1.5-Mbps service.

These companies are preoccupied with deep-packet analysis. Instead of just
routing traffic, the new routers will also determine the nature of the packet.
This isn't for security or spying, but to flag Skype and other VoIP calls so you
can be charged extra for making them. You can assume that IPTV traffic will be
charged differently, too. One of the more shameful aspects of this is that Cisco
seems to be promoting some of these ideas so that it can sell more specialized
(and expensive) gear.

If they were serving the public interest, the telcos and cable companies would
simply provide a very fast connection, and services would flow over those
connections in ways determined by the user--everything IP-driven. But these
companies would like to use gangland tactics to get into every part of your
business. You buy the 1.5-Mbps link, it costs a fixed amount. You actually want
to use it, it costs more. How about putting a server on it? Nope, you have to
pay extra. Can you make a VoIP Skype call? No way, costs more. So you're not
getting a real 1.5-Mbps line at all--you're getting scammed, in fact.

This reminds me of the early era of Internet connectivity, where an ISP would
buy a 1.5-Mbps T-1 line from the phone company and resell it over and over and
over to hundreds of customers, with the rationalization that the line was
magically multiplexed and was providing T-1 service to 500 people. When you read
the fine print, you discovered that you couldn't really use the whole capacity
of your T-1 at all. This sort of scam is still with us, only now the big boys
are doing it. The state and local public utilities commissions say nothing. The
Federal Communications Commission says nothing. Nobody says anything.

It seems to me that if you buy a 1.5-Mbps connection, you should be able to
redline the connection, to use the full capacity without being charged more. And
you should also be able to use it for whatever you want to use it for.
Otherwise, it's like selling public-utility water to people and making them pay
more to use it for washing dishes.--Continue reading...

As this fiasco unfolds, I blame the Telecommunications Act of 1996. Its
apologists still claim that it's working, when it has clearly resulted in the
consolidation of the phone companies and the ludicrous fact that the original
monopoly, AT&T, is actually re-emerging as a big clunky ogre, despite its 1984
court-ordered breakup. Where is Judge Harold Green when you need him?

This was made clear when SBC grabbed a slew of the one-time Regional Bell
Operating Companies created by the breakup, including Pacific Bell. Then SBC
merged with AT&T and is now called AT&T. In just six years, the name of the
fabulous baseball stadium in San Francisco has gone from Pac Bell Park to SBC
Park to AT&T Park. Just the expense of changing the signage and promotional
collateral tells you that someone is making plenty of money.

The entire nation's telecom infrastructure will consolidate, probably into three
monopolies: landline, cellular, and cable. The Internet will change drastically.
Just look at a list of the documents archived by the Center for Digital
Democracy ( www.democraticmedia.org ) to see where all this is headed. The guys
who run these telecom companies have no qualms about openly discussing their
plans to ream the public. With weak public utilities commissions and an FCC that
is not serving the public, what is the point of being secretive?

Apparently nobody cares. The folks in Congress are technophobic and clueless;
they just listen to the lobbyists who work for the big telecom companies. The
FCC is out to ruin the country by giving the big companies anything they want.
The executive branch is all about corporatism at the expense of the public. And
the public itself seems not to care, or these jokers would be voted out of
office.

Meanwhile, Western Europe and Asia will glide along the Net at 30 to 100 Mbps
with IPTV, VoIP, and slick services with a reasonable connection fee, while we
struggle to get a solid 1 Mbps while paying all sorts of usage fees. Soon we'll
be comparing ourselves to Bolivia or Paraguay and patting ourselves on the back
saying, "We're number one."

And sure, in the Western Hemisphere we'll be number one--if you leave Canada
out.
