http://www.prwatch.org/node/4891

At Least the Lies Have Improved

Pundit Andrew Sullivan, who supported the war in Iraq but has lately
begun to notice that he may have been mistaken, is nevertheless clinging
to hope that the debacle can be salvaged. Yesterday he posted the
following observations, from "a source of mine whom I've learned to
trust as an honest observer," about the recent killing of terrorist Abu
Musab al-Zarqawi:

"I am impressed with Casey, Khalilzad and the new Iraqi PM. ... As for
Zarqawi, they all recognize the essential silliness of portraying him as
the embodiment of the opposition, but given the resources the US has
poured into this massive psyops, their feeling is: why not get a little
boost out of it themselves? Hence the claim that it's the end of al
Qaeda in Iraq, and the out-of-perspective presentation of al Qaeda's
role in the insurgency. ... So: misleading, but very sound politics."

You know, I am an admirer of much of Andrew Sullivan's writings. He is an authentic libertarian and tough-minded independent thinker in many departments. But on the subject of Israel and the Iraq War he is weak-minded -- that is the least pejorative term I can come up with at the moment.

There was never the least chance that an American invasion and occupation of Iraq could be anything but a disaster -- any Mideast expert whose mind wasn't distorted by an Israeli agenda easily understood that and could quickly tick off all the reasons why this is so. Sullivan occasionally understands this, but then his mind lapses back into fantasyland noodlings about how, gee, maybe this whole project really could have a happy ending if we just hang in there a few more months. He will eventually look back upon these episodes with shame and disbelief.

Sullivan is eloquent upon the subject of Muslim and, lately, Christian fundamentalism (which he has dubbed Christianism), but his mind is unable to discern the similarities among all branches of monotheistic fundamentalism. Jewish and Zionist fundamentalism are at least as great a threat to the world as Muslim and Christian fundamentalism. All of these branches of fundamentalism feed on conflict with and hatred of the others. All of them individually and in combination threaten the survival of the human race. Jewish and Christian fundamentalists are more excited about instigating Armageddon than Muslim fundamentalists, and they are much better armed with weapons of mass destruction. Sullivan manages to miss all this.

As you know by now, I can understand his difficulties. I loved Zunes
discussion of the Walt/Mearsheimer. Do you know it?:

http://www.fpif.org/fpiftxt/3270

I guess your perspective would be close to Dan Lieberman in the
interesting discussion that follows Zunes paper. Also link below(or
in print preview from page 15 onwards under the above link):

http://www.alternativeinsight.com/Indefensible_Defense_of_Israel_Lobby.html

One of the books, I am reading at the moment is a print edition of a
former magazine discussion of facism: "Facism Past and Present, West
and East." All the articles by English and German scholars react on
and debate an attempt at defining a "fascist minimum" as the "ideology
of national rebirth (palingenesis)"; by Roger Griffin.

It's quite interesting actually; maybe someone should do something
concerning the Walt/Mearsheimer debate.

but I'll store your critique of Sullivan.

Side point: Mossad has no need to use social engineering to trick information out of information brokers and other companies in the United States, when it exerts control at the top of many companies and has friends inside every major company, organization and government agency who will gladly hand over sensitive data willingly. Mossad has "friends" -- people who are highly excited about the Israeli interest -- deep inside Cingular, Verizon, AT&T, the FBI, Google, AOL, Amazon, Yahoo, Harvard, the NYPD -- you name the organization. I have not the least doubt that Mossad can quickly assemble all the private records on any individual from all these organizations.

Israel and high-level academic friends of Israel in the West have played a leading role -- some would say *the* leading role -- in pioneering the field of data mining, especially cutting-edge intelligence-oriented data mining. The average American has no comprehension of what this is all about. You might as well be speaking Greek to them. Duh. Fleecing them is a walk in the park. I increasingly wonder whether the average American gets anything anymore. They are too busy watching television and passively being herded this way and that by their billionaire masters of reality to exercise any brain cells.

Now, are the Israelis to blame because they are much smarter than many of the folks they deal with, including very many Americans? I don't think so. Look at all those dumb faces on Fox News. Beasts of burden. Perfect marks. Eminently usable and disposable.

Earth hottest it's been in 2,000 years

So why did they change this headline from 400 to 2,000 years? That's
a big leap. The National Academy of Sciences a bunch'a drama queens
or what?

Earth hottest it's been in 2,000 years
By JOHN HEILPRIN, Associated Press Writer
1 hour, 12 minutes ago

The Earth is running a slight fever from greenhouse gases, after
enjoying relatively stable temperatures for 2,000 years. The
National Academy of Sciences, after reconstructing global average
surface temperatures for the past two millennia, said Thursday the
data are "additional supporting evidence ... that human activities
are responsible for much of the recent warming."

Other new research showed that global warming produced about half of
the extra hurricane-fueled warmth in the North Atlantic in 2005, and
natural cycles were a minor factor, according to Kevin Trenberth and
Dennis Shea of the National Center for Atmospheric Research, a
research lab sponsored by the National Science Foundation and
universities.

The academy had been asked to report to Congress on how researchers
drew conclusions about the Earth's climate going back thousands of
years, before data was available from modern scientific instruments.
The academy convened a panel of 12 climate experts, chaired by
Gerald North, a geosciences professor at Texas A&M University, to
look at the "proxy" evidence before then, such as tree rings,
corals, marine and lake sediments, ice cores, boreholes and glaciers.

Combining that information gave the panel "a high level of
confidence that the last few decades of the 20th century were warmer
than any comparable period in the last 400 years," the panel wrote.
It said the "recent warmth is unprecedented for at least the last
400 years and potentially the last several millennia," though it was
relatively warm around the year 1000 followed by a "Little Ice Age"
from about 1500 to 1850.

Their conclusions were meant to address, and they lent credibility
to, a well-known graphic among climate researchers — a "hockey-
stick" chart that climate scientists Michael Mann, Raymond Bradley
and Malcolm Hughes created in the late 1990s to show the Northern
Hemisphere was the warmest it has been in 2,000 years.

It had compared the sharp curve of the hockey blade to the recent
uptick in temperatures — a 1 degree rise in global average surface
temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere during the 20th century —
and the stick's long shaft to centuries of previous climate
stability.

That research is "likely" true and is supported by more recent data,
said John "Mike" Wallace, an atmospheric sciences professor at the
University of Washington and a panel member.

Rep. Sherwood Boehlert (news, bio, voting record), R-N.Y., chairman
of the House Science Committee, had asked the academy for the report
last year after the House Energy and Commerce Committee chairman,
Rep. Joe Barton (news, bio, voting record), R-Texas, launched an
investigation of the three climate scientists.

The Bush administration has maintained that the threat from global
warming is not severe enough to warrant new pollution controls that
the White House says would have cost 5 million Americans their jobs.

"This report shows the value of Congress handling scientific
disputes by asking scientists to give us guidance," Boehlert said
Thursday. "There is nothing in this report that should raise any
doubts about the broad scientific consensus on global climate
change."

The academy panel said it had less confidence in the evidence of
temperatures before 1600.

But it considered the evidence reliable enough to conclude there
were sharp spikes in carbon dioxide and methane, the two
major "greenhouse" gases blamed for trapping heat in the atmosphere,
beginning in the 20th century, after remaining fairly level for
12,000 years.

Between 1 A.D. and 1850, volcanic eruptions and solar fluctuations
had the biggest effects on climate. But those temperature
changes "were much less pronounced than the warming due to
greenhouse gas" levels by pollution since the mid-19th century, the
panel said.

The National Academy of Sciences is a private organization chartered
by Congress to advise the government of scientific matters.

The No Planes evidence is not "new."
I discovered there was no plane in the first hit footage within three
days of the release of Hunt the Boeing.
This was taken as a joke, but I was serious.
This precedes all other excuses and scenarios except the standdown,
which now makes sense in light of the fact that military planes do not
scramble for Chunks of PR fiction or for cartoons.

There still is no plane in the first hit footage.

My first backup came when Gerard Holmgren discovered the Bureau of
Transportation Safety database, a listing of all domestic flights, had
no listings for Flights 77 and 11.
http://iinet.net.au/~holmgren/1177.html
To not be listed in the BTS, a flight would have to be cancelled at
least a week in advance. Else it would say cancelled, crashed, or whatever.
The database disappeared for a while, and when it returned, the flights
were listed, but they didn't take off. The last I heard, now they take
off, but it's from heliports.

The supposed eyewitnesses to the black box recovery were subsequently
indicted for looting Ground Zero. This is a story that got trotted out
in time for Jimmy Walter's first conference, but the contents of those
alleged boxes has never been revealed.

http://911foreknowledge.com/debris
examines Spooker Corners and the alleged debris found there.
Since this wheel managed to "land" beneath a construction canopy and the
underlying business canopy without making any hole in it, and the dented
sign is not in any possible trajectory, this is phoney planted mystery
debris, some of which can be seen preplanted in the Brave New World
sequence opening the Naudet DVD.

This is reaction shots to the first explosions. Since Church and Murray
is generally a busy intersection, it shows that the streets had already
been blocked off in anticipation of the days fireworks.

The videos are documented by 911 Chronology Source
http://www.archive.org/details/911-Chronology-Source
and Tim Canale's 8 hours of live coverage
http://maebrussell.com

Any one with Virtualdub and the Virtualdub Zoom filter can make slow
motion enlargements freshly.
Video snippets of 911 are sprinkled throughout the web even 5 years
later, collected by hundreds of anonymous people who tivo'd the defining
event of our time.
All the videos shown to us on TV show the same preposterousness.

There are late appearing "videos" that turn out to be cartoons, such as
the SkyShark http://fooledagainon911.com
and Saltergate http://thewebfairy.com/911/saltergate which have no
provinance in the live coverage.

My case is not that "someone inside the government'" had a hand in the
attacks.
My case is that the Mainstream Media (and much of the allegely
alternative media) is owned by defense contractors,bought up with washed
funds from international drugrunning.
911 was presented to us as a scripted Reality TV show, with the intent
of Shock and Awe trauma conditioning, and laying the excuses for martial
law and perpetual war.

When 1010 WINS radio switches to the CNN feed, the delay of the "live"
broadcast becomes evident.
As the building begins to tumble, CNN blithely chatters on for a length
of time that would be measurable. I am presuming the delay is the exact
amount required by the WESCAM military helicopter video system.

Rick Siegel didn't see any planes. He knew thousands of people in New
York and they didn't see any planes either, even if they believed in planes.
Multiple explosions from ground level are shown, and so are a profusion
of helicopters which create flashes just as the building starts to
evaporate.

An enlarged closeup is SUPPOSED TO BE BLURRY.
Enlarging cannot increase the resolution, it can only make the existing
resolution look bigger.
If it magically looked "clear" like supposed passenger jets spewing
chemtrails, then we could know it was fake.

There is no method or software that I know of or have read about as
secret even which can take an existing big ole boeing jet, it's
associated noise and tremendous fireball crash and remove it from
footage in real time, while substituting a hippityhopper toy plane on a
preposterous course.

Yeah, they created a deception. The second hit is a parade of TV Fakery
with "planes' who's flightpaths have more to do with artistic
convenience than with geography.
http://covertoperations.blogspot.com/2006/06/2nd-hit-video-anomalies-sloppiness.html
They DID "create a hoax to further the psyop, in this case of those who
might see beyond the larger deception"
This is our point.

The American people have to learn to handle the truth.
Or die.
I am tired of dragging lemmings back from the cliffs.
I want to just stand back and say "JUMP, JUMP," and let the IQ of the

So I tie a knot in the end of my rope and hold on.

Your hangout violates the rule of Occam's Razor.
Too many unnecessary convolutions.
The video is fake because it was prepared as audio-visual aids i for the
various wargames/terror drills "coincidentally" scheduled for that very day.
Innocents involved in the production were scripted to be aboard Flights
11 and 77 which didn't exist except as a ruse to eliminate witnesses.
Surviving video artists had to go along with the plot for their own
good, and are still busy producing fake videos using the same techniques,
http://thewebfairy.com/911/saltergate
and newer virtual reality techniques as is seen in the planeless new
pentagon fakes.

This is a typical "eyewitness."
http://thewebfairy.com/911/curtainchewer
I have a whole liars club with witnesses who could tell Osama did it,
giving their little snippets of plotline development.
Then I have an authentic witness getting brushed off
http://thewebfairy.com/911/911/debris/itsabomb.htm
by the same reporter who seems to have advance knowledge that building 7

Here Hence speaks of his film, but when I challenged him to turn the
Naudet 911 first hit into frames for himself, he said he didn't have
video skills.
I suppose there are aspects of filmmaking that do not require video
skills, so I'd like to expand my offer/plea to anyone who does have or
is willing to learn the video skill to use VirtualDub and the Virtualdub
Zoom filter to replicate my work. It is the ultimate proof when one can
see for oneself, all excuses aside.

I'm not sure that this is the place to express some thoughts only
partially related to AJ, but this is what's on my mind:

I think AJ is hurting the cause to get out the truth. I think Eric
Hufschmid is hurting the cause of truth. I think Jack Blood is
hurting the cause of truth.

I admit that my mind is somewhat influenced by the way Jones has
treated Wingtv.net, and wingtv's points criticism of GCN.

Without going on a tangent, here's my specific gripe with Terror Storm.

In discussing the crime of 9/11, when one starts adding more and more
history lessons, more and more charges that this is all part of the
NWO, I submit that all the hype of history, conspiracy, and grand
schemes tends to push people away from opening their eyes to the basic
need to deal with 9/11.

This is especially true for those people who are not familiar with
books such as David Ray Griffin's.

It's a free country, and I'm not saying anybody (of the names
mentioned above) is intentionally saboteuring.

In additional I believe the the new film that is being so highly
touted "From Freedom to Fascism" is also a distraction from the cause
of getting questions about 9/11 treated as the most urgent activity
that must happen in the US now.

My perspective: if 9/11 was in fact an inside job, probably the only way to break the case open is for at least two insiders to step forward with the truth, backed by evidence and documentation to support their stories. Until that happens, all the furious arguments among various schools of 9/11 skeptics and conspiracy theorists will spin their wheels, producing no meaningful effects on the political system.

As I recall, Stanley Hilton claimed at one time to have insider proof about what really happened on 9/11, but it never surfaced in public view.

I think it's useful that there are many points of view about what really happened on 9/11. I'm not attached to any particular point of view, because I simply don't know the truth. All I have are suspicions and guesswork, and suspicions and guesswork are often wrong.

I find it curious that a number of factions among competing groups of 9/11 conspiracy theorists spend more time and energy attacking one another than they do in going after the Bush administration: this is precisely the kind of situation that COINTELPRO ops are designed to create.

What I most worry about is what is the next major move the conspirators behind 9/11, no matter who they were, are going to make. Is 9/11 Part II in the works? Will it be used to censor on the Internet any further skeptical discussion about 9/11 Part I and hammer the final nail in the coffin of American democracy? If so, we will probably be helpless to stop the course of events.

No forward progress can be made in unraveling the truth about 9/11 until high-level players choose to act on their accord, and succeed in surviving after choosing to act. For the time being, the mainstream media have succeeded in keeping questions about 9/11 from derailing the Bush administration. They are smothering the story to death, depriving it of oxygen. They refuse to engage in discussion of any open questions about 9/11.

Freedom to Fascism does not mention 911 even once.
It doesn't have to.
911 Stands in the Background breathing heavy through every scene.

From Freedom to Fascism is a movie everybody can stand behind.
It's a deadly serious movie that makes you laugh.
If we can make it a number one hit, a movie sensation with people
camping out in line and lines around the block, if we can knock the Tom
Cruise or whoever Illuminati Message Movie of the Week out of the top
spot, we will have spoken in the only language Hollywood understands:
Boxoffice..

my understanding of TERROR STORM is that it shows how false flag terror is normal operating procedure. how does that hurt the 911 truth movement?

I'm not sure that this is the place to express some thoughts only
partially related to AJ, but this is what's on my mind:

I think AJ is hurting the cause to get out the truth. I think Eric
Hufschmid is hurting the cause of truth. I think Jack Blood is
hurting the cause of truth.

I admit that my mind is somewhat influenced by the way Jones has
treated Wingtv.net, and wingtv's points criticism of GCN.

Without going on a tangent, here's my specific gripe with Terror Storm.

In discussing the crime of 9/11, when one starts adding more and more
history lessons, more and more charges that this is all part of the
NWO, I submit that all the hype of history, conspiracy, and grand
schemes tends to push people away from opening their eyes to the basic
need to deal with 9/11.

This is especially true for those people who are not familiar with
books such as David Ray Griffin's.

It's a free country, and I'm not saying anybody (of the names
mentioned above) is intentionally saboteuring.

In additional I believe the the new film that is being so highly
touted "From Freedom to Fascism" is also a distraction from the cause
of getting questions about 9/11 treated as the most urgent activity
that must happen in the US now.

John & Steve (Mearsheimer & Walt): Let the Good Times Rol

Posted by: "Sean McBride" smcbride2@yahoo.com   smcbride2

Fri Jun 23, 2006 8:04 pm (PST)


<http://mondoweiss.observer.com/2006/06/john-steve-mearsheimer-walt-let-the-good-times-roll.html>

The authors of the bombshell critique of the Israel lobby showed up two days ago on the Diane Rehm Show and I hear they're on C-Span, too. And they're on the cover of Foreign Policy.

Diane Rehm was their first broadcast appearance. Stephen Walt says they waited three months because they wanted the paper to be absorbed first as ideas, without having the discussion personalized to "John and Steve, rather than what we wrote." Enough time has passed. "Now it's time for us to start talking more openly about it."

Just one statement the authors made the other day. Responding to Dennis Ross's assertion that it's fine that these issues are discussed, they should be debated, Mearsheimer pointed out that the paper couldn't be published in the U.S. mainstream media, and Walt pointed out that they've paid a price for bringing this up. Just about every friend who has talked to him about the paper has said, "You're never going to work in Washington." It wasn't Walt's lifetime ambition to work in Washington, he said, and he isn't complaining about his position in life. "But I find it interesting that that is so frequently the reaction, that this has made us compete pariahs. Quite remarkable."

'Reading Leo Strauss,' by Steven B. Smith - New York Times

Posted by: "Sean McBride" smcbride2@yahoo.com   smcbride2

<http://www.nytimes.com/2006/06/25/books/review/25alter.html>

Comment:

A less sinister, more favorable take on Leo Strauss than many others that have been circulating on the net.

Excerpt:

"Throughout his writings," Smith concludes, "Strauss remained deeply skeptical of whether political theory had any substantive advice or direction to offer statesmen." This view was shaped by his wary observation of the systems of totalitarianism that dominated two major European nations in the 1930's, Nazism in Germany and Communism in the Soviet Union. As a result, he strenuously resisted the notion that politics could have a redemptive effect by radically transforming human existence. Such thinking could scarcely be further from the vision of neoconservative policy intellectuals that the global projection of American power can effect radical democratic change. "The idea," Smith contends, "that political or military action can be used to eradicate evil from the human landscape is closer to the utopian and idealistic visions of Marxism and the radical Enlightenment than anything found in the writings of Strauss."
