Dear Anna,
I am glad you asked. With a life and death coalition of all third-parties,
true democrats, and paleocon conservatives who really are serious about
ending rule by an oligarchy of finance-drugs-arms-industries-globalization
pirates. A non-cooperation strike against the oligarchy. A showdown for
who has power to hold on to control of this country -- the people or
organized international druglord financial crime and mass-murder?
Assist Kucinich as the only rightful candidate for the Democratic
nomination. Kerry is 1) part of the obstruction of justice and an
accomplice in the 9-11 black-op inside-job false-flag frame-up and cover-up;
2) Kerry is a "berserker" false candidate, actually put up by the oligarchy
as their throw-the-contest intended-to-loose faux democratic candidate to
re-elect Bush, simply because the oligarchy likes the way the
Perle-Wolfowitz-Cheney team delivers the bacon and takes the heat.
Its that simple.
I happen to know that everyone not on the oligarchy payroll is in favor of
such a coalition, that greens and libertarians, populists and the middle
classes, teachers and professionals, the under-employed and the employed,
the tax-payer and those who seek wiser spending of the government dollar (on
school teachers, streets, bridges, power, parks, community centers, lower
tuitions, etc. rather than wars and new slave factories in China) --
artists and authors seeking to break the death monopoly on art, movies and
publishing -- scientists not wanting to work on killing technologies
(nuclear, chemical biological, psychological and cyber) but rather on basic
knowledge and on innovations to make life better for living and for
husbanding and intelligently developing, utilizing, concerving, the
resources of the earth -- cheap energy -- and I mean high-tech clean, safe
cheap energy -- all have been within our reach -- except for this
hostile-to-common-people criminal class -- the people who denied us all of
the future that our fathers and grand fathers were working for and were
convinced that we would have long before 2004!!!
Now check the following reports of events of the last 48 hours and see if it
all does not punctuate what I recommend.

Democrats still think Kerry is not working for Bush re-election!
But even his Zionist Jewish wife's corporation (Heinz, a multinational with
50 affiliates operating in 200 countries) is putting its money on
ush!!! -- Kerry's secret mission: Elect Bush! with turn-off empty slogan
"anyone but bush" (who wants just "anyone" -- and an anyone who is even more
pro-war, more globalist, more Sharonist and a rich bonesman oligarch to
boot??? Can you say "sucker?"
Heinz Shuns Kerry, Supports Bush, GOP -- Although likely Democratic
presidential nominee John F. Kerry's wife is an heiress to H. J. Heinz Co.,
members of the company's board of directors as well as the company's
political action committee are supporting President George W. Bush and the
Republican Party. --The Fortune 500 ketchup king PAC has contributed $5,000
through its PAC to the Bush reelection campaign and nearly $60,000 to other
Republicans candidates. -- This is three times as much money as donated to
Democratic candidates. -- Interestingly, the Heinz PAC has decided not to
give any money to the Kerry campaign, despite the fact that Kerry's wife,
Teresa Heinz Kerry, is so closely tied to the company. -- Yet, the company
gave $5,000 to the Massachusetts Democratic Party, Kerry's home state.
Teresa Heinz Kerry has a net worth of $500 million through her inheritance
and four percent ownership in the company's stock. -- But she does not
serve on the board of directors and has no direct control over the
management of the company or its PAC. -- In fact, none of the Heinz family
has served on the board or worked directly for the company since 1987. --
Kerry has been labeled hypocritical by Republicans in the presidential
campaign for blasting outsourcing of American jobs while the Heinz Co. and
Kerry's wife have simultaneously benefited financially from it. --
Washington-based American Enterprise Institute economic analyst James
Glassman said the connection between Kerry and the Heinz Co., which has
outsourced nearly 70 percent of its workforce overseas, has merit because of
Kerry's strong political stance against outsourcing. -- "I think it's
absolutely legitimate to point to Heinz and say here's a company with a
close association with Kerry that is doing exactly the thing Kerry is
condemning," Glassman remarked. -- Heinz Co. spokeswoman Debbie Foster
said the company has had to field several hundred telephone calls since
Kerry became the presumptive Democratic nominee regarding his alleged ties
to the food company. -- But Foster said consumers should not assume the
company has any relation to the Kerry campaign just because his wife is tied
to the company. -- Another Heinz Co. spokesman Jack Kennedy explained that
the company is nonpartisan and gives money to both of the major parties. --
In an almost satirical manner, Kennedy illustrated that the Heinz Co. does
not play favorites in politics. -- "We want to make sure people buy our
products on their merit," Kennedy said in a statement. "We're an
equal-opportunity condiment." -- The Heinz Co. has 50 affiliates operating
in 200 countries.

RICHARD PERLE -- THE BERNARD BARUCH OF OUR TIME
Senior Architect of 9-11 and Frame-up Wars, Richard Perle, the man too
powerful (as House of Rothchild's man in America) for any American
politicians or law enforcemet to contain, exposes his twisted lethal
thinking about Iraq at panel discussion before Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations as related by panelist Dr. Juan Cole, Professor of History at the
University of Michigan
It was quite an experience to be on the same panel on Tuesday with
Richard Perle and Toby Dodge, before the US Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations. Perle wasn't added until the last minute, and it is mysterious
why he was there, since ours was supposed to be an "expert" panel. Dodge has
an important book on Iraq. Originally Ahmad Hashim was going to be on with
us (he came Wednesday instead), and then we heard Perle had been put on.
Perle, of course, is no Iraq expert. He doesn't know a word of Arabic, and
has never lived anywhere in the Arab world.
Perle's entire testimony was a camouflaged piece of flakking for Ahmad
Chalabi. He complained that the State Department and the CIA had not created
a private army for Chalabi and had not cooperated with him. Perle did not
mention Chalabi's name, but it was clear that was who he was talking about
(State and CIA famously dropped Chalabi in the mid-1990s when they asked him
to account for the millions they had given him, and he could not).
In fact, Perle kept talking about "the Iraqis" when it was clear he
meant Chalabi. He said the US should have turned power over to "the Iraqis"
long before now.
But here's an interesting contradiction. I said at one point that
I thought Bremer should have acquiesced in Grand Ayatollah Sistani's request
for open elections to be held this spring, and that if they had been, it
might have forestalled the recent blow-up. I had in mind that Muqtada
al-Sadr in particular would have been kept busy acting as a ward boss,
trying to get his guys returned from East Baghdad & Kufa, etc.
Perle became alarmed and said that scheduling early elections would
not have prevented the "flare-up" because the people who mounted it were
enemies of freedom and uninterested in elections. Perle has this bizarre
black and white view of the world and demonizes people right and left. A lot
of the Mahdi Army young men who fought for Muqtada are just neighborhood
youth, unemployed and despairing. Some are fanatics, but most of them don't
hate freedom-- most of them have no idea what it is, having never
experienced democracy.
But anyway, what struck me was the contradiction between Perle's
insistence that the US should have handed power over to Iraqis months ago,
and his simultaneous opposition to free and fair elections. The only
conclusion I can draw is that he wants power handed to Chalabi, who would
then be a kind of dictator and would not go to the polls any time soon.
Perle also at one point said he didn't think the events of the first
two weeks of April were a "mass uprising" and said he thought Fallujah was
quiet now. (Nope).
It is indicative of the Alice in Wonderland world in which these
Washington Think Tank operators live that Perle could make such an obviously
false observation with a straight face. Even a child who has been watching
CNN for the past three weeks would know that there was a mass uprising.
(Even ten percent of the American-trained police switched sides and joined
the opposition, and 40% of Iraqi security men refused to show up to fight
the insurgents.)
I replied, pointing out that the US had lost control of most of
Baghdad, its supply and communications lines to the south were cut, and a
ragtag band of militiamen in Kut chased the Ukrainian troops off their base
and occupied it. It was an uprising. I suppose Perle hopes that if he says
it wasn't an uprising, at least some people who aren't paying attention will
believe him. It is bizarre.
It reminded me of the scene in Ladykillers where the fraudsters set
off an explosion in a lady's basement, and she hears it while outside in a
car, and is alarmed, and the Tom Hanks character says in a honeyed southern
accent, "Why, Ah don't believe Ah heard anything at all." I could just see
Perle in a Panama hat at that point playing the character.
It is deeply shameful that Perle is still pushing Chalabi, and may
well succeed in installing him. Chalabi is wanted for embezzling $300
million from a Jordanian bank. He cannot account for millions of US
government money given him from 1992 to 1996. He was flown into Iraq by the
Pentagon (Perle was on the Defense Advisory Board, a civilian oversight
committee for the Pentagon) with a thousand of his militiamen. The US
military handed over to Chalabi, a private citizen, the Baath intelligence
files that showed who had been taking money from Saddam, giving Chalabi the
ability to blackmail large numbers of Iraqi and regional actors. It was
Chalabi who insisted that the Iraqi army be disbanded, and Perle almost
certainly was an intermediary for that stupid decision. It was Chalabi who
insisted on blacklisting virtually all Baath Party members, even if they had
been guilty of no crimes, effectively marginalizing all the Sunni Iraqi
technocrats who could compete with him for power. It was Chalabi who
finagled his way onto the Interim Governing Council even though he has no
grassroots support (only 0.2 percent of Iraqis say they trust him).
Now Chalabi's nephew Salem has been put in charge of the trial of
Saddam Hussein. Salem is a partner in Zell and Feith, a Jerusalem-based law
firm
headed by a West Bank settler, in which Douglas Feith, the undersecretary of
Defense for Planning, is also a senior partner when not in the US
government. You can be assured that the trial will be conducted on behalf of
the Bush administration and the Neocons, and on behalf of the Chalabis.
Since the Chalabis have been trying to overthrow Saddam for decades, it is
hard to see how this can have even the appearance of an impartial tribunal.
Anyway, Perle was just a one-note Johnny, with his whole message
being "We must give away Iraq to Ahmad Chalabi yesterday! That will solve
all the problems."
If the Bush administration listens to Perle and puts Chalabi in as a
soft dictator, it will be the final nail in the coffin of the Iraq
enterprise. The whole thing is already going very badly wrong. Chalabi will
play iceberg to the Iraq/Bush Titanic.
It would be really interesting to know the list of secret promises
Chalabi has given Perle (and presumably the Israelis through Perle) that
would explain this Neocon fervor for the man.
By the way, that Jordanian bank that Chalabi embezzled from in the
1980s? There has been speculation that he was using it to launder Iranian
money for the Khomeini war effort against Saddam. So perhaps from his point
of view, he hadn't so much embezzled $300 million at the end, but rather
collected his retainer from Tehran.
Since Perle was the source of most of the rotten advice that got the
US into its current quagmire in Iraq, and since he was forced to resign as
chairman of the Defense Advisory Board under a cloud of scandal, it was
doubly inappropriate for him to be testifying before the Senate about what
to do in Iraq. -- posted by Juan Cole at 4/22/2004

Brahimi Criticizes US Bias Toward Israel -- Al-Hayat reports that UN special
envoy to Iraq Lakhdar Brahimi remarked on Wednesday that it was unjust for
the US to show such a strong bias in favor of Israeli repression, and that
it was making his job in Iraq more difficult. -- Roula Khalaf also
describes in the Financial Times the ways in which the two occupations,
Israel's in Palestine and America's in Iraq, are becoming linked in the
minds of the Arab public. -- The US official who said that an
anti-occupation movement in Iraq makes no sense, since the Occupation ends
on June 30, is surely joking. It is clear to everyone that the Americans
will still be actually in charge in Iraq after June 30-- in charge of all
the military forces in the country including the Iraqi ones, and still
wielding enormous influence on the decisions of the caretaker
overnment. -- The British also tried to rule Iraq from behind their
embassy after its independence in 1932, and they had a good run all the way
to 1958, when a revolution put Iraq on a path of radical nationalist
anti-imperialism. Do the Americans have to learn all over how these things
can backfire?
Global terrorist threat magnified 100-fold by turmoil in Iraq -- US
military action in Iraq has given a new lease of life to Islamic militant
groups, raising the global terrorism threat 100-fold, a top security analyst
said here Wednesday. --Rohan Gunaratna, an associate professor at the
Institute of Defense and Strategic Studies in Singapore, said the turmoil in
Iraq and mistreatment of Muslims there was fueling a rapid generation of
terrorists around the world. -- "I can tell you that after Iraq the threat
of terrorism has increased maybe 100 times," Gunaratna said in a keynote
address to the AVSEC aviation security conference here. -- "When you fight
terrorism, you . . . have to prevent the formation of terrorists. If you
kill one terrorist or you capture one terrorist [and] that results in the
birth of 10 other terrorists you have lost the battle." -- Gunaratna said
initial US-led efforts to crush Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda terrorist network
had been very successful, with more than 3,400 members of the organization
arrested around the world over the past two and a half years. -- "Al-Qaeda
became a very weak organization [with] less than 1,000 members," he
aid. --"But the US invasion of Iraq has given a new lease of life for these
organizations because terrorist groups depend on support. -- "And the
grief and the anger and the suffering of the Muslims in Iraq and elsewhere
is now being ably exploited by different terrorist and extremist groups to
generate more recruits and more support." -- Gunaratna's comments counter
US President George W. Bush's argument that the world is safer from
terrorism because the United States invaded Iraq and toppled dictator Saddam
Hussein. -- Large swathes of Iraq have descended into near anarchy over the
past few weeks with dozens of foreigners being kidnapped and the US military
forced into battles with both Sunni and Shiite Muslims. -- Gunaratna is one
of the world's leading authorities on Islamic terrorism although he has been
criticized by some academics and sections of the media for his outspoken
opinions.

the bombings to the worldwide Islamist al-Qaeda network, but some observers

bombings to strengthen its hand in cracking down further on Muslim activists
in resource-rich Xinjiang. In a report issued in January 2002, China said
200 violent incidents took place between 1990 and 2001. At a press

there had been no blasts or assassination incidents in Xinjiang in "recent

"Peak Oil" Hoax Update: Corporations pretending not to have the reserves
they really do, aiming for for monopoly pricing without condemnation. The
oil industry has been gripped by scandal since Royal Dutch/Shell twice this
year downgraded its proven oil reserves by 20 per cent, or nearly 4bn
barrels. Shell may not be alone. -- If you take oil prices currently at
around US$37 a barrel, the highest for nearly 15 years, US petrol prices at
record levels and you add terrorist attacks and diminishing supplies, you
have a recipe for inflation and economic slowdown. The question of reserves
becomes a much more important factor. -- The New York Times reported that
internal documents and other data indicated that Shell had over estimated
its proven oil reserves in Oman by as much as 40 per cent. -- The Oman
estimates were based on assessments made in May 2000 by a senior Shell
executive who was subsequently fired. [The New York Times article may have
been a price-fixing-strategy "signal" to other oil companies to similarly
discover errors in their determinations of proven reserves. --de]

US taxpayers pays an average of $446.00 per year for each Israeli -- to buy
what but dead Arabs and a bigger and badder and bolder Mossad (I'd say the
911 operation was pretty bold, wouldn't you?) -- The President and fellow
Republicans made a lot out of the decision to cut taxes and the resulting
$300 tax rebate for each American tax payer.1 The tax rebate, though
originally suggested by Democrats, was one of the very few actions President
George W. Bush has taken that was sincerely popular with a majority of
Americans. -- One interesting thing about this rebate was that in the
process, no mention was made whatsoever of the fact that this same
government gives each Israeli citizen - most of whom are not even US
taxpayers and contribute nothing whatsoever to the US - an average $446.00
each and every year.2 At a time when millions of Americans are unemployed
and millions more are working for less than a livable wage; while government
is cutting back Medicare and Medicade and making it illegal for seniors to
buy affordable drugs from abroad; and the federal government is cutting back
on all social services across the board, why is it that we are still sending
literally billions to the world's last formally and officially racist
state?3 -- The answer to this is question is simple enough, most of the
US Congress is in fact composed of people paid specifically by the Israeli
lobby to serve Israeli interests.4 Unfortunately, most Americans can't pay
their "representatives" to represent them, so as usual, those with the money
get their way. Further, since the Israeli lobbyists tend to contribute to
both Democratic and Republican candidates for a particular seat, the people
ostensibly being "represented" by these candidates are really given no
choice in the matter. For example, in the 2002 Colorado Senatorial race
between Thomas Strickland and Wayne Allard, both had already sold their
votes to various pro-Israel lobbyists. Over their careers, Strickland had
already accepted $43,370 and Allard accepted $50,500 to vote for Israel at
the expense of their "constituents" who didn't have the money to pay for
representation.5 The Israeli lobby has successfully created an environment
in which Israeli interests come before American ones in Washington and by
buying all the major candidates, they ensure that the American public is
given no choice but to support continued spending to defend Israeli Hafrada
(Apartheid).

impoverished dispossessed U.S. people or their paper constitution
controlled and drained dry by internationalists (Zionist bankers, media
moguls, defense corporations, drug and arms trade corporations, brokers and
traders in derivatives, futures, currencies etc.)
The founding fathers warned against "entangling alliances" and "standing
armies" and "foreign trade" and "corporations" -- and through taking
control of education from parents and centralizing it under first state and
federal control, through control of newspapers, book publishing radio,
television, theaters they effected the dumb down -- the warnings Washington,
Jefferson and Madison and the rest were forgetten or obscured so that
merchant baner controlled corporations could gain a foothold in the US as
base for their conquest of the world.
Our protests against the Perle-Wolfowitz-Rumsfeld-Myers Pentagon are as
ineffectual and pointless in controlling the pirate oligarchy as would be a
street demonstration in Bangladesh. Congress is their not ours --
controlled by drugs, deviant blackmailable sex, blackmailable dealings of
all kinds so that Congressmen and Senators are owned, their staffs, loyal to
those who really own them and not to their aquiescent figurehead "office
holders."
but of course Kerry is not Bush and because of that sterling qualification
he is the champion of the oligarchy's other in-their-pocket team of asset
managers for overseeing the bankrupt, liquidated, in-receivership United
States and the controlled worker-tax-base and soldiering "units" held
capitve and controllable on the land that that exhausted, insolvent and
impecunious corporation contains among its attached assets.
So vote for Kerry. He'll be better than Bush and he -- as "realists" high
in the Democratic party (those who know the true state of affairs at the
nation's capital) know -- is the only even-apparent choice the creditor
oligarchy will let you have anyway -- the Catholic who discovered he was
Jewish only after he began running for the Presidency (just like Madeleine
Allbright, who said she was Catholic yet was raised Episcopalian found out
that she was really Jewish and the daughter of one of Stalins commisars only
after her questioning before the Senate relative to her selection as
Clinton's Secretary of State.
Or are you willing to take the risk and pay the very great cost it will
take of giving to the future what the founding fathers, though their
sacrifice gave to generations who sold it all for a mess of pottage that now
is an empty bowl.

George Galloway, MP from Scotland, and Senior Vice Chairman Parliamentary
Labour Party Foreign Affairs Committee, Britain writes:
"The English-speaking countries, especially the United States and Britain,
have a deeply cynical policy of double standards regarding the Islamic world
of 1.3 billion people ...
In spite of Osama Bin Laden's violence, his primitive politics and his
misogyny he is the most popular figure in this Islamic world, where he has
little competition from the corpulent kings, generals, dictators and juntas,
who obey orders from the west ...
I was with Arabs in Iraq, Jordan and Palestine while they listened to Osama
Bin Laden's first video and saw the reaction: Their faces were wet with
tears. He pierced their hearts with his message, which had three arrows:
First: That America will never have peace until Palestine has peace and
justice.
Second: That America will never have peace as long as 6,000 Iraqi children
die each month due to U.S. enforced UN sanctions.
Third: America will never have peace as long as the west maintains tyrants
and puppet rulers in the Islamic world.
The Islamic world sees 6,000 Iraqi children die every month for ten years
and sees that the west doesn't care, but when 3,000 people die in the World
Trade Centers the whole world shakes and is now on the brink of many wars
...
this is part of a pervasive double-standard by which the blood of Americans
is worth so much more than the blood of Iraqis or Afghanis."

Pre-9/11 World Trade Center Power-Down
by Victor Thorn
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
Did the World Trade Center towers undergo a deliberate "power-down" on the
weekend prior to the 9-11 terrorist attacks? According to Scott Forbes, a
senior database administrator for Fiduciary Trust, Inc. - a high-net
investment bank which was later acquired by Franklin Templeton - this is
precisely what took place. Forbes, who was hired by Fiduciary in 1999 and is
now stationed at a U.K. branch office, was working on the weekend of
September 8-9, 2001, and said that his company was given three weeks advance
notice that New York's Port Authority would take out power in the South
Tower from the 48th floor up. The reason: the Port Authority was performing
a cabling upgrade to increase the WTC's computer bandwidth.
Forbes stated that Fiduciary Trust was one of the WTC's first occupants
after it was erected, and that a "power-down" had never been initiated prior
to this occasion. He also stated that his company put forth a huge
investment in time and resources to take down their computer systems due to
the deliberate power outage. This process, Forbes recalled, began early
Saturday morning (September 8th) and continued until mid-Sunday afternoon
(September 9th) - approximately 30 hours. As a result of having its
electricity cut, the WTC's security cameras were rendered inoperative, as
were its I.D. systems, and elevators to the upper floors.
Forbes did stress, though, that there was power to the WTC's lower floors,
and that there were plenty of engineers going in-and-out of the WTC who had
free access throughout the building due to its security system being knocked
out. In an e-mail to journalist John Kaminski, author of The Day America
Died (Sisyphus Press) and America's Autopsy Report (Dandelion Books), Forbes
wrote: "Without power there were no security cameras, no security locks on
doors, and many, many 'engineers' coming in and out of the tower."
Forbes didn't think much of these occurrences at the time, and said that he
worked until Monday morning (September 10th) to get all the computer systems
back online. Due to his IT-related duties on Saturday & Sunday, Forbes had
Tuesday, September 11th off, and thus watched the World Trade Center towers
collapse from his apartment. While doing so, he recalled, "I was convinced
immediately that something was happening related to the weekend work."
In addition, Forbes says there were other peculiarities revolving around
this unreported event, including:
1) Fiduciary employees trapped between the 90-97th floors of the South
Tower told family members (via cell-phone calls) that they were hearing
"bomb-like explosions" throughout the towers.
2) Video cameras positioned atop the World Trade Center which were used to
feed daily images to local television stations were inexplicably inoperative
that morning.
3) A Fiduciary employee who was on one of the lower floors and escaped
immediately after the first (North) tower was struck, reported that he was
amazed by the large number of FBI agents that were already on the streets
surrounding the WTC complex only minutes after the initial strike.
4) Last but not least, Ann Tatlock, CEO of Fiduciary Trust and now a board
member of Franklin Templeton, had just arrived at a conference hosted by
Warren Buffet at the Offutt Air Force Base (home of the U.S. Strategic
Command Headquarters in Omaha, Nebraska) when the 9-11 attacks took place.
Coincidentally, later that day President George W. Bush flew into this very
same base on Air Force One for "security reasons." Even more chilling are
the Offutt AFB ties to the CIA's MK ULTRA experiments, Project Monarch, the
Franklin Cover-Up, and the diabolical practices of Michael Aquino. (Type any
of these words into a search engine for more information.)
In the end, Forbes says that even though these disclosures could jeopardize
his current employment, he has stepped forward because, "I have mailed this
information to many people, including the 9/11 Commission, but no one seems
to be registering these facts."

Blair-Bush Meeting Bears Fruit -- Brisih Home Secretary David Blunkett is
considering jailing those who merely "sympathise" with so-called extremist
Islamic groups or who continue to "associate" with alleged terrorist
suspects. The Observer wrote on April 11, "Sympathisers with extremist
Islamic groups will risk jail under controversial plans to make merely
associating with a suspected terrorist a crime." The next day, the Times
reported, "Those whose names were found on seized mobile phones, computers
or e-mails and who tried further contact would find themselves facing
prison." The paper added that the home secretary would like a formal
warning given to "every known contact of a terror suspect or extremist
Islamic group." A source close to the home secretary was quoted saying, "We
are targeting support networks, the things that enable terrorism to be
perpetrated by other people. It is intended to deter people from hanging
around the fringes of undesirables." -- The latest musings of Blunkett
are a double attack on democratic rights. -- Firstly, the proposal to
introduce "guilt by association" makes criminals of those who have committed
no crime. Secondly, by extension the so-called "undesirables" with whom they
associate face a form of banning order reminiscent of the apartheid regime
in South Africa, preventing them from coming into contact with anyone. --
The Labour government has introduced some of the most draconian
"anti-terrorist" legislation in Europe. Britain has declared a "technical"
state of emergency, enabling the suspension of sections of the European
Convention on Human Rights. This then makes possible the indefinite
internment of foreign nationals as "terrorist suspects," without recourse to
the normal juridical process. -- The 14 individuals who have been locked
up under the terms of the
Anti-Terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001 (ATCSA) enter a Kafkaesque world
where they may not see the evidence that supposedly justifies their
incarceration, nor may they appoint an independent legal representative to
challenge their imprisonment in the courts. They can only be set free if
they agree to be deported back to the country from which they have fled,
where their life may well be in danger. The choice is stark: indefinite
detention without due legal process, or possible death. -- In February,
Blunkett proposed the introduction of a form of "pre-emptive" justice, where
suspects could be jailed based on charges for crimes they had not yet
committed.

American troops fighting insurgents killed scores of civilians in protracted
battles in a remote town on Iraq's Syrian border last week. The deaths, not
previously reported due to the remoteness of the area, will raise tensions
still further in the country and make the increasingly frantic attempts by
the US-led coalition to ensure security and stability even harder.

Denmark's defence minister resigned Friday as lawmakers questioned military
intelligence reports the government used to justify its support for the
U.S.-led invasion of Iraq. -- Svend Aage Jensby said he was stepping down
because of a "smear campaign" by critics who say the government lied about
Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction. A year after the invasion, no
such weapons have been found. Denmark has nearly 500 troops in Basra and
nearby Qurnah, some 400 kilometres southeast of Baghdad.

Ahmed Chalabi, a Shiite politician who for years was a favorite of the
Pentagon and the office of Vice President Cheney [and whose nephew is
overseeing the "Iraqi" trial of Saddam Heussein, ] generated anger in
Washington yesterday when he said a new U.S. plan to allow some former
officials of Hussein's ruling Baath Party and military to return to office
is the equivalent of returning Nazis to power in Germany after World War
I. -- That criticism may curtail Chalabi's influence over the removal of
former officials -- and his power over the employment and income prospects
of hundreds of thousands of Iraqis. -- Chalabi has headed the committee
in charge of removing former Baathist officials. In a nationwide address
yesterday designed to promote national reconciliation, U.S. administrator L.
Paul Bremer now is saying complaints that the program under Chalabi has been
"unevenly and unjustly" administered are "legitimate" and that the overall
program has been "poorly implemented."

At least 4 nonviolent protesters have been arrested during a women anti-wall
demonstration in Biddu today. One Palestinian women, Deema Hamdan from
Al-Isawiya was reportedly beaten by the soldiers after she was arrested.
Other arrestees are French citizen Angela Coppin, and British citizen Angela
Julian from the IWPS. A fourth international activist was arrested during
the same charge. -- They were arrested as the Israeli soldiers charged the
nonviolent demonstrators. Around 55 women were gathered to protest the
construction of the wall and the destruction of their land. The
demonstration has remained totally peaceful even after the soldiers used
excessive violence to disperse the crowd. --As the people were walking
peacefully to the worksite, they were fired at with teargas canisters above
their heads. One international activist from ISM was injured in the arm with
a teargas canister. The soldiers then grabbed 4 of the women who were
standing in the front. -- Approximately half an hour after the beginning
of the march, Israeli
soldiers on horses charged the rest of the women who were dispersing,
hitting them with batons. An elderly was hit in the neck during the charge.

[One] thing is what we claim to believe and what actually guides the
country' s foreign policy. American military doctrine of "Shock and Awe"
assumes that instilling fear of death will achieve "rapid dominance" over
the adversary. The doctrine was first elucidated by Harlan K. Ullman,
professor at the US War College. A corollary of "Shock and Awe," also
enunciated by the professor, is that the United States can 'turn the lights
on and off' of an adversary as we choose" and no choice will be left "except
to cease and desist or risk complete and total destruction." Or so goes the
"logic." -- On April 11 the Washington Post reported that Lt. Col. Brennan
Byrne, commander of the 1st Batallion, 5th Marine Regiment, from outside the
city of Fallujah stated, "What is coming is the destruction of
anti-coalition forces in Fallujah. . . . They have two choices: submit or
die." For the American Marine commander, in a Borg-like fashion, resistance
is also futile. ... -- Yet, the sources of resistance in the face of
overwhelming odds are limitless. We should know by merely paying attention
to our own imagined cultural archetypes. History tells us as much. Defiance
has many names: self-respect, honor, courage, pride, revenge, nationalism,
self-determination, religious calling, soul power, liberty, family,
neighborhood, community and, of course, choice. -- In the long run
overwhelming technological military coercion is no match against a people
fighting for its own independence.

You could not be more deceived.
Global warming is a fiction -- and as such similar to "Arab fundamentalist
terrorists" -- a phony scare designed to explain the sudden appearance of
weather disasters that are actually the result of weather modification
utilizing the NDF super computer and tens of billions of dollars of
world-around land, sea,sky and space real-time atmosphere-ocean current and
temperature-land temperature variables and the ability to lay overcast cloud
using a large fleet of cloud-seeding chemical (chemtrails) which block and
redirect by reflection the suns heating rays, preventing land and sea
surfaces from being heated and thus causing air pressure to be higher than
normal (less heat on the land surface meaning less air being warmed near the
surface, less air expansion, less rising-air convection) which enables the
clandestine masters of the weather to redirect parcels of hot, cold, wet or
dry air from their otherwise destination - holding hot air in regions
where they will gain even more heat, for example, and then moving it as a
weapon to destroy a government (as was done to bring down Milosovic) -- and
also using the control of winds in this way to slow or stop wind-driven
ocean currents, as with the El Nino effect of the 1990's.
Believe me, real earth scientists agree with me -- only the hirlings whose
academic chairs and grants are bankrolled by the corporations behind the
weather modification say otherwise, them and the "global warmikng" NGO's
the "environmentalists" (who are just political mouthpieces of the oligarchy
selling you a false threat (like Arab terrorism) to control your money and
to get your political assent for the horrible crimes they commit.
Proof, you say?

but that is the deception. The corporations know you don't like them and so
they use your aversion to power their own deception, their own scam. WHAT
THE INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONS WANT IS THE CLOSING DOWN OF SMALL
