The Biggest Lie * The Hague * Howard Zinn
30 January 2010
"The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe
if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point
where it becomes stronger than their democratic State itself.
That, in its essence, is fascism — ownership of government
by an individual, by a group or by any other
controlling private power."
- Franklin D. Roosevelt

Editor’s Notes:
If you have not subscribed to Flyby News (FN), then this is the first issue of 2010. Please take your time reading and absorbing, since there is quite a bit of information. However, I want to encourage you to take action soon, regarding item 2, which contains a formal response to Francis Boyle, Professor of International Law, from The Hague on his filing against Bush et al for the war-crime "Extraordinary Rendition." Please consider endorsing and supporting this campaign ASAP.
The first item begins with Dr. Lynn Margulis, who is a National Academy of Science member and distinguished professor at UMASS, Amherst. Her article, published in the February, 2010 issue of the Rock Creek Free Press, reveals her humanity and commitment to science and justice. I hear a lot about conspiracy theories, some feasible, some ridiculous, and of course, most anything could be claimed as possible. However, her analysis of the work of David Ray Griffin and others, is most refreshing. She has put her reputation on the line by accusing the official story, which claims two airplanes brought down three high-rise buildings as “the biggest lie.” An independent free mind must challenge the abuse of science and deception, especially when it justifies military invasions-occupations. The atrocity and abuse of Muslim innocent people must end. The real perpetrators are challenging everyone’s humanity to either wake up and take a stand, or slip into a denial pact for the illusion of security and comfort. I realize most everyone who reads this is united in this awareness, but we have not been united enough to effectively break through the media-mind control barriers to awaken a critical mass of the public. Please make a pact with all people of conscience to make this the year we become successful in this endeavor.
Item 1 also includes updates from Architects and Engineers, new information on the militarized anthrax, additional analysis on what hit the Pentagon, Janette MacKinlay, artist and 9/11 survivor, and more. Japan now has “9/11: Blueprint for Truth - The Architecture of Destruction” translated with major press and government leaders questioning what really happened. The second item, besides the War Crimes filing at The Hague, includes an article by Glenn Greenwald on Obama placing American citizens on a hit-list of people ‘authorized to be killed.’ Plus, a Democracy Now! link with an interview with the father of a 9 year-old child, killed by Blackwater in Iraq; also, a few articles to honor the wonderful work and life of historian, humanitarian, Howard Zinn. Please find inspiration in all this. We will need it to stand up to the monsters controlling world governments and media.
Please support the filing to The Hague soon and be ready for the next FN issue, which will include a campaign to engage the 9/11 truth community and peace activists. I will be providing text with clear evidence of Treason regarding the cover-up of the demolitions of the World Trade Center, and will request all to respond to US code 18 (Sec. 2382) - Misprision of treason -- which states: "Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States and having knowledge of the commission of any treason against them, conceals and does not, as soon as may be, disclose and make known the same to the President or to some judge of the United States, or to the governor or to some judge or justice of a particular State, is guilty of misprision of treason and shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than seven years, or both."
We will request your taking the evidence to Judges in your community and demand their taking action, or to anyone, especially those who have taken sworn oaths of office to uphold and protect principles of the US Constitution. Also we will request your writing of your actions in letters to the editor in local newspapers.
Item 3 is part of this issue, too, because energy and uranium weapons is a big part of the downfall of the US Republic, and misleading the world into a death spiral arms race and war. This item also includes an article showing figures from NASA on how the last decade was the warmest ever recorded for our planet. Many are triggered by the disinformation of the energy warlords, playing the game between left and right, truth and deception, but the measurements and real science are not political or partisan. Many are fooled by the complexity of disinformation that seeks to push an elitist plan to profit and control the financial-political game for their dark motives. As per the crisis in Haiti, any turn to make a buck will be used over the anguish of many. Many want to believe that the altering of the climate by humanity is a hoax, but the numbers speak for themselves, and pollution has accumulated since the beginning of the industrial revolution, promoted by greed and willful or plain ignorance with deforestation killing the lungs of our living (or dying) planet. Also, in this item, note the action requested to stop the elitist energy plan. Tell Obama and the public that nuclear power is not safe or clean. Nukes threatens all life, since it will last beyond the time humankind may destroy itself. Members of Congress and the elitists will not be safe in their bunkers. Our only chance is to change the energy, control, weapon, deception pathway of where we are now headed. 9/11 truth is key. In the spirit of Howard Zinn, take an active stand for nonviolence and compassion, be a warrior for peace and justice; they go hand in hand.

David Ray Griffin's work exposing the truth of 9/11
By Lynn Margulis
In the February issue: Rock Creek Free Press
Two Hit, Three Down - The Biggest Lie
I comment here on the nanotechnology aspect of Jerry Mazza’s masterful review (Rock Creek Free Press, January 2010, page 6) of David Ray Griffin’s extraordinary 2009 book, The Mysterious Collapse of World Trade Center 7: Why the Final Official Report about 9/11 is Unscientific and False.
By the time we (Dorion Sagan – my eldest son and Sciencewriters partner – and I) met David Griffin in 2003 in his native habitat at the Center for Process Studies (which is on the campus of the Claremont School of Theology in southern California), he had written over two dozen books, none of which I had ever read or even heard of. We immensely enjoyed a three-day scientific-philosophical meeting on the Darwinian-evolutionary view of life that had been organized by Griffin’s sage mentor, the sweet-tempered but razor sharp, Jimmy Carter-sounding, octogenarian professor emeritus and director, John B. Cobb, Jr. The results of this fascinating meeting have since been published (Cobb, ed. 2008).
At that meeting, Griffin’s talk was sober, academic, competent, scholarly – and entirely new to me: Christian theology in a much broader philosophical context than any to which I had ever been exposed.The science-friendly philosophical outlook Griffin espoused apparently was developed by Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947), the English mathematician-philosopher who became a Harvard professor, or by Cobb. Why would I have known anything about this theological-philosophical work? My own expertise after all is in protoctist and organellar genetics. With close colleagues I reconstruct the origin and evolution of nucleated cells in the Proterozoic Eon. Where I understood DRG’s talk at all, he made clear to me his honesty. Truth, especially scientifically/empirically established truth, seemed intrinsic to his Christianity. As a typical agnostic scientist overtly critical of organized, and even disorganized, religion, I was surprised by the scientific commitment to approaching empirical truth in a religious context rather than the usual authority-pleasing consensus.
Griffin went on to elaborate that, although as a Whiteheadian he embraces the methods and results of science, he is critical of the entire international scientific enterprise as generally practiced today. Not only do scientists extrapolate their intrinsically specialized empirical knowledge into intellectual territory where it does not belong, but they don’t heed Whitehead’s recognition that, after all, scientists –like all people – have an emotional life and an inner spirit. The acclaimed “objectivity of science,” on close scholarly inspection (by, say, Cobb, Griffin and other Whiteheadians), often translates into tribalism, jingoism, naiveté, denial of obvious truths, uncritical service to The State, and other forms of profoundly dangerous ignorance. Scientists, as do all groups of people, share unstated philosophical assumptions. For example, they not only have faith in the consistency and “knowability” of the real world, but they often assume that the concrete particulars of the world are adequately described by the abstractions that have proved useful for limited purposes in their own disciplines – an assumption that Whitehead called the “fallacy of misplaced concreteness.”
On the return trip east from this meeting, I read, non-stop, DRG’s seminal book on 9/11, The New Pearl Harbor. Since then I have watched the “aging theologian” (his self-description as quipped in the excellent video-graphed lecture “9/11 and Nationalist Faith” (or was it 9/11: Let’s Get Empirical? Both are highly recommended) metamorphose from a compelling, careful scholar to a brave and extraordinary orator (but still careful scholar). Griffin has become a superb politician with a single agenda item: We must re-open public inquiry into the events of September 11, 2001, especially the collapse of the World Trade Center.

Version 5 included a table showing that a range of flight paths exist which would enable a Boeing 757 to hit the light poles and the Pentagon without experiencing excessive g-force. As some researchers have stated that this is impossible the issue of misinformation arises and is examined in a postscript.

- - Wall Street Journal: The Anthrax Attacks Remain Unsolved
The FBI disproved its main theory about how the spores were weaponized.
From the Wall Street Journal, no less, comes the following article:
The Anthrax Attacks Remain Unsolved
The article makes the case that the scapegoat Ivins could not have made the anthrax used in the attacks since it had relatively high concentrations of silicon, which he could not have created.
I still believe that the anthrax case is one of the best opportunities for the 9/11 truth movement. The facts are relatively straightforward compared to 9/11. If it could be shown that the anthrax attacks originated from the US government or agents thereof, it would produce a massive shift in the public's thinking. People would then be forced to accept the fact that they have been lied to and the country was attacked through an inside job. That would open up, in my opinion, a huge opportunity to expose the truth about 9/11.

- - Janette MacKinlay - Surviving 9/11
By Carol Brouillet
On January 26, 2010, Janette MacKinlay, a survivor of 9/11, underwent surgery, a biopsy, following the discovery of a brain tumor last week. I saw her in the hospital following the surgery, and she was her warm, gracious, lucid self, even sharing with me the latest examples of note cards she has had printed, featuring her beautiful ikebana art images. Last September, we had worked together on the 9/11 Film Festival, held at the Grand Lake Theater in Oakland, California to draw attention to many 9/11 issues, including the plight of the those suffering from their exposure to the toxic dust, over 800 have died so far, that we know about. Janette believes that her tumor was probably caused by 9/11 and that she, along with many, many, others will be counted as victims of 9/11, as more and more “cancers and tumors” are found.
Fortunate- A Personal Diary of 9/11
Janette’s entire story bears repeating. She wrote a book, Fortunate- A Personal Diary of 9/11, which features photographs from her personal experience, as well as the ikebana floral arrangements that she created, in her effort to heal. On September 11, 2001, she was living across the street from the World Trade Center, and directly witnessed the fires and the collapses which broke the windows of her apartment. Some of the dust that she saved from her apartment, she sent to the physicist Steven Jones who analyzed it, finding iron spheres, as well as chips of nanothermite. Janette had a cameo appearance in Loose Change- 9/11 An American Coup, as well as other 9/11 truth documentaries, and has been interviewed on many mainstream television and radio stations. I hope a great, sensitive, filmmaker decides to make a film about Janette someday, because her story is one of great personal transformation, courage and hope, illustrated by her artistic creations. They say that the most personal story is the most universal and I suspect that the collective American psyche has not yet caught up with Janette, but will someday, hopefully before it is too late.
I met Janette in the summer of 2004, when activists had launched a campaign to “Blow the Whistle on the 9/11 Cover-Up!” in the Bay Area, and had gathered at a Commonwealth Club event where the featured speakers were members of the 9/11 Commission reporting their findings. I was tabling outside of the event and gave Janette a copy of David Ray Griffin’s The New Pearl Harbor-Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration for her book. The Deception Dollar artist, Blaine Machan, by coincidence, sent me Janette’s contact info on the same day that I met her (She had contacted him and was including Deception Dollars in one of her anti-war art exhibitions). Janette says that the commissioners, themselves, that day, persuaded her that they were concealing, rather than searching for the truth about 9/11. Subsequently, Janette became very active with our group, the Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance, hosting and organizing events, parties, mailing parties, becoming Treasurer, as well as speaking out publicly. (Her February 23, 2006 talk and powerpoint presentation from the event that she organized- Question 9/11- A Call to Action at the Grand Lake Theater are posted here).
Later, when she visited New York and her old apartment complex, she discovered that her renovated apartment was for rent, she decided to move back to New York City, and became involved with the East Coast activists. Her unique connections with family members, survivors, West Coast activists, East Coast activists helped her to bridge differences and pull diverse people together. She poured a lot of energy into the 9/11 Accountability Conference in Arizona in 2007, as well as the NYC Coalition for Accountability Now effort in 2009.
In the past few months, a number of meetings have been held with lawyers and activists, discussing how best to secure subpoena power and get those most responsible for 9/11 to speak, and to be held criminally accountable for their actions. Janette has been amongst the most active people, doing the vital legwork to seek accountability.
Mike Daly, an ironworker, who has been trying to educate the public about the enormous Captive Fund- created by Congress to “compensate workers for their injuries involved in the clean-up” (See- www.wtccaptivefund.com The huge fund has only hired lawyers to fight claims, paid out almost no money at all to those who have suffered ill health, as a result of 9/11, but has paid big bucks to those managing the fund.) well, Mike was visiting Janette last Wednesday evening when Janette suddenly had trouble speaking. A friend had telephoned her to ask for directions and realized that something was seriously wrong with her and came over immediately to get her to the hospital. Mike had gone to see Janette, because he felt that her artwork should be made into metal sculptures, memorials to 9/11.
This week, Janette had planned to begin taking care of her three month old grandson, Huxley, two days a week. Those plans have been turned upside-down and her two sons, Brian and Mark ,have been looking after Janette and taking her to and from the hospital.
I have not spoken directly with Janette’s doctors or her family about her medical condition. I learned from Janette that they told her that she has a fast growing tumor, the kind associated with people doing construction work, and that the professionals have advised her that she has between 6 months and a year to live. I have learned, from experience, that patients are sometimes not told the truth about their condition or their treatments, and that Western medicine has its limitations. I learned about alternative medicine, before I learned about “alternative politics or alternative media.” Years ago, my fiancé had a tumor, the size of an orange, removed from the center of his brain, and received a very bleak diagnosis for survival. He also had a dramatic remission, thanks to a classic Chinese herbal treatment, prescribed by the Director of Cancer Research in Beijing. I know many people who have survived brain tumors and who have overcome cancer through holistic, natural remedies. Janette has a very strong spirit and with the love and support of friends and family, I hope that she will recover from her surgery, and in the process of healing herself, add to our insights on how we can heal the world. I believe that truth, love, spirit are stronger than the lies, fear, malice deployed to control humanity.
I would encourage everyone to send some love and healing energy towards Janette, as well as towards all the victims, first responders, inhabitants of New York City, and New Jersey, who came into contact with the toxic dust.

BUSH TO THE HAGUE! The Hague acknowledges Francis Boyle
today on his filing against Bush et al for the war-crime "Extraordinary Rendition"
From: Susan Serpa; Monday, January 25, 2010
Dear Accountability Advocates and previous impeachment advocates,
The day of accountability is at hand.
We need your help:
Contact The Hague to insist they proceed an investigation of war-crimes committed by the accused (Bush, Cheney, Rice, Rumsfeld, Tenet and Gonzales) in the acts called "Extraordinary Rendition" as quickly as possible. Send me a reply (neimpeach@gmail.com) if you would like your group listed as endorsing Prof. Boyle's filing. Send this message to all your groups - this is the accountability we've all been working on for the past several years.
Contact Eric Holder 202-353-1555 AskDOJ@usdoj.gov to tell him
the International Community will prosecute even if he does not.
I'll be setting up a Facebook group shortly (hopefully today) and Prof. Boyle has just engaged a webmaster who will be setting up a website this weekend. Any other ideas on how to get this moving forward is greatly appreciated.

Below is Prof. Boyle's message and initial filing. He is looking for endorsements.
Please respond if you'd like your group named as endorsing the arrest of Bush,
Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, Tenet and Gonzales for the international war-crimes.
[From Prof. Boyle]: Thanks. I want to set up a worldwide grassroots campaign:
BUSH TO THE HAGUE!
The basis would be the Complaint I have filed with the ICC. I want everyone in the world to contact the ICC prosecutor as indicated and demand Bush’s prosecution. Once that is set up we use it to pressure all governments in the world to investigate, extradite and prosecute Bush et al., including our own The principles of international criminal law that they have violated apply everywhere in the world. We need grassroots activists whom I can work with to put this together with experience doing it. We also get as many endorsements from NGOs as we can. I already got my first, as indicated below.

INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT COMPLAINT FILED
AGAINST BUSH, CHENEY, RUMSFELD, TENET, RICE AND GONZALES;
INTERNATIONAL ARREST WARRANTS REQUESTED
_____________________________________________
Demonstrate Your Support for this Complaint by Contacting the I.C.C. Prosecutor
by Letter, Fax, or email as Indicated Below
Champaign, U.S.A./The Hague, Netherlands (19 Jan 2010). -- Professor Francis A. Boyle of the University of Illinois College of Law in Champaign, U.S.A. has filed a Complaint with the Prosecutor for the International Criminal Court (I.C.C.) in The Hague against U.S. citizens George W. Bush, Richard Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, George Tenet, Condoleezza Rice, and Alberto Gonzales (the “Accused”) for their criminal policy and practice of “extraordinary rendition” perpetrated upon about 100 human beings. This term is really their euphemism for the enforced disappearance of persons and their consequent torture. This criminal policy and practice by the Accused constitute Crimes against Humanity in violation of the Rome Statute establishing the I.C.C.
The United States is not a party to the Rome Statute. Nevertheless the Accused have ordered and been responsible for the commission of I.C.C. statutory crimes within the respective territories of many I.C.C. member states, including several in Europe. Consequently, the I.C.C. has jurisdiction to prosecute the Accused for their I.C.C. statutory crimes under Rome Statute article 12(2)(a) that affords the I.C.C. jurisdiction to prosecute for I.C.C. statutory crimes committed in I.C.C. member states.
The Complaint requests (1) that the I.C.C. Prosecutor open an investigation of the Accused on his own accord under Rome Statute article 15(1); and (2) that the I.C.C. Prosecutor also formally “submit to the [I.C.C.] Pre-Trial Chamber a request for authorization of an investigation” of the Accused under Rome Statute article 15(3).
For similar reasons, the Highest Level Officials of the Obama administration risk the filing of a follow-up Complaint with the I.C.C. if they do not immediately terminate the Accused’s criminal policy and practice of “extraordinary rendition,” which the Obama administration has continued to implement.
The Complaint concludes with a request that the I.C.C. Prosecutor obtain International Arrest Warrants for the Accused from the I.C.C. in accordance with Rome Statute articles 58(1)(a), 58(1)(b)(i), 58(1)(b)(ii), and 58(1)(b)(iii).
In order to demonstrate your support for this Complaint you can contact the I.C.C. Prosecutor by letter, fax, or email as indicated below.

Dear Sir:
Please accept my personal compliments. I have the honor hereby to file with you and the International Criminal Court this Complaint against U.S. citizens George W. Bush, Richard Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, George Tenet, Condoleezza Rice , and Alberto Gonzales (hereinafter referred to as the “Accused”) for their criminal policy and practice of “extraordinary rendition.” This term is really a euphemism for the enforced disappearances of persons, their torture, severe deprivation of their liberty, their violent sexual abuse, and other inhumane acts perpetrated upon these Victims. The Accused have inflicted this criminal policy and practice of “extraordinary rendition” upon about one hundred (100) human beings, almost all of whom are Muslims/Arabs/Asians and People of Color. I doubt very seriously that the Accused would have inflicted these criminal practices upon 100 White Judeo-Christian men.
The Accused’s criminal policy and practice of “extraordinary rendition” are both “widespread” and “systematic” within the meaning of Rome Statute article 7(1). Therefore the Accused have committed numerous “Crimes against Humanity” in flagrant and repeated and longstanding violation of Rome Statute articles 5(1)(b), 7(1)(a), 7(1)(e), 7(1)(f), 7(1)(g), 7(1)(h), 7(1)(i), and 7(1)(k). Furthermore, the Accused’s Rome Statute Crimes Against Humanity of enforced disappearances of persons constitutes ongoing criminal activity that continues even as of today.
The United States is not a contracting party to the Rome Statute. Nevertheless, the Accused ordered and were responsible for the commission of these I.C.C. statutory crimes on, in, and over the respective territories of several I.C.C. member states, including many located in Europe. Therefore, the I.C.C. has jurisdiction over the Accused for their I.C.C. statutory crimes in accordance with Rome Statute article 12(2)(a), which provides as follows:
Article 12
Preconditions to the Exercise of Jurisdiction
…
2. In the case of article 13, paragraph (a) or (c), the Court may exercise its jurisdiction if one or more of the following States are Parties to this Statute or have accepted the jurisdiction of the Court in accordance with paragraph 3:
(a) The State on the territory of which the conduct in question occurred …
So the fact that United States is not a contracting party to the Rome Statute is no bar to the I.C.C.’s prosecution of the Accused because they have ordered and been responsible for the commission of Rome Statute Crimes against Humanity on, in, and over the respective territories of several I.C.C. member states.
Consequently, I hereby respectfully request that the Court exercise its jurisdiction over the Accused for these Crimes against Humanity in accordance with Rome Statute article 13(c), which provides as follows:
Article 13
Exercise of Jurisdiction
The Court may exercise its jurisdiction with respect to a crime referred to in article 5 in accordance with the provisions of this Statute if:
…
(c) The Prosecutor has initiated an investigation in respect of such a crime in accordance with article 15.
Pursuant to Rome Statute article 13(c), I hereby respectfully request that you initiate an investigation proprio motu against the Accused in accordance with Rome Statute article 15(1): “The Prosecutor may initiate investigations proprio motu on the basis of information on crimes within the jurisdiction of the Court.” My detailed Complaint against the Accused constitutes the sufficient “information” required by article 15(1).
Furthermore, I respectfully submit that this Complaint by itself constitutes “a reasonable basis to proceed with an investigation” under Rome Statute article 15(3). Hence, I also respectfully request that you formally “submit to the Pre-Trial Chamber a request for authorization of an investigation” of the Accused under Rome Statute article 15(3) at this time. Please inform me at your earliest convenience about the status and disposition of my two requests set forth immediately above.
Based upon your extensive human rights work in Argentina, you know full well from direct personal experience the terrors and the horrors of enforced disappearances of persons and their consequent torture. According to reputable news media sources here in the United States, about 100 human beings have been subjected to enforced disappearances and subsequent torture by the Accused. We still have no accounting for these Victims. In other words, many of these Victims of enforced disappearances and torture by the Accused could still be alive today. Their very lives are at stake right now as we communicate. You could very well save some of their lives by publicly stating that you are opening an investigation of my Complaint.
As for those Victims of enforced disappearances by the Accused who have died, your opening an investigation of my Complaint is the only means by which we might be able to obtain some explanation and accounting for their whereabouts and the location of their remains in order to communicate this critical information to their next-of-kin and loved-ones. Based upon your extensive experience combating enforced disappearances of persons and their consequent torture in Argentina, you know full well how important that objective is. The next-of-kin, loved-ones, and friends of “disappeared” human beings can never benefit from psychological “closure” unless and until there is an accounting for the fates, if not the remains, of the Victims. In part that is precisely why the Accused’s enforced disappearances of about 100 human beings constitutes ongoing criminal activity that continues as of today and will continue until the fates of all their Victims have been officially determined by you opening an investigation into my Complaint.
Let us mutually suppose that during the so-called “dirty war” in Argentina the International Criminal Court had been in existence. I submit that as an Argentinean human rights lawyer you would have moved heaven and earth and done everything in your power to get the I.C.C. and its Prosecutor to assume jurisdiction over the Argentine Junta in order to terminate and prosecute their enforced disappearances and torture of your fellow Argentinean citizens. I would have done the same. Unfortunately, the I.C.C. did not exist during those darkest of days for the Argentine Republic when we could have so acted. But today as the I.C.C. Prosecutor, you have both the opportunity and the legal power to do something to rectify this mass and total human rights annihilation, and to resolve and to terminate and to prosecute the “widespread” and “systematic” policy and practice of enforced disappearances and consequent torture of about 100 human beings by the Accused.
Unfortunately, the new Obama administration in the United States has made it perfectly clear by means of public statements by President Obama and his Attorney General Eric Holder that they are not going to open any criminal investigation of any of the Accused for these aforementioned Crimes against Humanity. Hence an I.C.C. “case” against the Accused is “admissible” under Rome Statute article 1(complementarity) and article 17. As of right now you and the I.C.C. Judges are the only people in the entire world who can bring some degree of Justice, Closure, and Healing into this dire, tragic, and deplorable situation for the lives and well-being of about one hundred “disappeared” and tortured human beings as well as for their loved-ones and next-of-kin, who are also Victims of the Accused’s Crimes against Humanity. On behalf of them all, as a fellow human rights lawyer I implore you to open an investigation into my Complaint and to issue a public statement to that effect.
Also, most regretfully, the new Obama administration has publicly stated that it will continue the Accused’s policy and practice of "extraordinary rendition," which is really their euphemism for enforced disappearances of human beings and consequent torture by other States. Hence the Highest Level Officials of the Obama administration fully intend to commit their own Crimes against Humanity under the I.C.C. Rome Statute – unless you stop them! Your opening an investigation of my Complaint will undoubtedly deter the Obama administration from engaging in any more “extraordinary renditions” -- enforced disappearances of human beings and having them tortured by other States. Indeed your opening of an investigation into my Complaint might encourage the Obama administration to terminate its criminal “extraordinary rendition” program immediately and thoroughly by means of issuing a public statement to that effect. In other words, your opening an investigation of my Complaint could very well save the lives of a large number of additional human beings who otherwise will be subjected by the Obama administration to the Rome Statute Crimes against Humanity of enforced disappearances of persons and their consequent torture by other States, inter alia.
The lives and well-being of countless human beings are now at risk, hanging in the balance, waiting for you to act promptly, effectively, and immediately to save them from becoming Victims of Rome Statute Crimes against Humanity perpetrated by the Highest Level Officials of the Obama administration as successors-in-law to the Accused by opening an investigation of my Complaint. Otherwise, I shall be forced to file with you and the I.C.C. a follow-up Complaint against the Highest Level Officials of the Obama administration. I certainly hope it will not come to that. Please make it so.
Finally, for reasons more fully explained in the Conclusion to my Complaint, I respectfully request that you obtain I.C.C. arrest warrants for the Accused in accordance with Rome Statute articles 58(1)(a), article 58(1)(b)(i), article 58(1)(b)(ii), and article 58(1)(b)(iii). The sooner, the better for all humankind.
I respectfully request that you schedule a meeting with me at our earliest mutual convenience in order to discuss this Complaint. I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.
This transmission letter is an integral part of my Complaint against the Accused and is hereby incorporated by reference into the attached Complaint dated as of today as well.
Please accept, Sir, the assurance of my highest consideration.

- - Howard Zinn (1922-2010): A Tribute to the Legendary Historian
with Noam Chomsky, Alice Walker, Naomi Klein and Anthony Arnove
[Following is an excerpt from a recent Democracy Now! program, replaying a 2005 interview about his time as an Air Force bombardier in World War II, and his bringing the lesson he learned into the present circumstances of US occupation-wars.]
HOWARD ZINN: Well, we thought bombing missions were over. The war was about to come to an end. This was in April of 1945, and remember the war ended in early May 1945. This was a few weeks before the war was going to be over, and everybody knew it was going to be over, and our armies were past France into Germany, but there was a little pocket of German soldiers hanging around this little town of Royan on the Atlantic coast of France, and the Air Force decided to bomb them. Twelve hundred heavy bombers, and I was in one of them, flew over this little town of Royan and dropped napalm—first use of napalm in the European theater.
And we don’t know how many people were killed or how many people were terribly burned as a result of what we did. But I did it like most soldiers do, unthinkingly, mechanically, thinking we’re on the right side, they’re on the wrong side, and therefore we can do whatever we want, and it’s OK. And only afterward, only really after the war when I was reading about Hiroshima from John Hersey and reading the stories of the survivors of Hiroshima and what they went through, only then did I begin to think about the human effects of bombing. Only then did I begin to think about what it meant to human beings on the ground when bombs were dropped on them, because as a bombardier, I was flying at 30,000 feet, six miles high, couldn’t hear screams, couldn’t see blood. And this is modern warfare.
In modern warfare, soldiers fire, they drop bombs, and they have no notion, really, of what is happening to the human beings that they’re firing on. Everything is done at a distance. This enables terrible atrocities to take place. And I think, reflecting back on that bombing raid and thinking of that in Hiroshima and all the other raids on civilian cities and the killing of huge numbers of civilians in German and Japanese cities, the killing of 100,000 people in Tokyo in one night of fire-bombing, all of that made me realize war, even so-called good wars against fascism like World War II, wars don’t solve any fundamental problems, and they always poison everybody on both sides. They poison the minds and souls of everybody on both sides. We’re seeing that now in Iraq, where the minds of our soldiers are being poisoned by being an occupying army in a land where they are not wanted. And the results are terrible.

- - Howard Zinn: "Largest Lie" is the "U.S. War on Terrorism"
By Sherwood Ross
The “largest lie,” wrote historian Howard Zinn who died yesterday at age 87, is that “everything the United States does is to be pardoned because we are engaged in a ‘war on terrorism.’”
“This ignores the fact that war is itself terrorism, that the barging into people’s homes and taking away family members and subjecting them to torture, that is terrorism, that invading and bombing other countries does not give us more security but less security.”
In an article published previously in “The Long Term View” magazine of the Massachusetts School of Law, Zinn said that in the Fallujah area of Iraq Knight Ridder reporters found there was no Ba’athist or Sunni conspiracy against the U.S., “only people ready to fight because their relatives had been hurt or killed, or they themselves had been humiliated by home searches and road stops.”

- - HOWARD ZINN: A Lion Falls Leaving A Nation of Swine
January 29, 2010 by Gordon Duff – Published by Veterans Today
FEW AMERICANS KNEW OF ZINN, FEW KNOW
WHAT WE HAVE LOST AND THE DOOM WE FACE
By Gordon Duff STAFF WRITER/Senior Editor
[EXCERPT]
..As a combat veteran and historian, I could never hope to remotely follow in Zinn’s footsteps. Even onto his death at 87, he was tireless in his fight for truth, his opposition to war and his rage against those dishonoring America. His tools were his honesty, his impeccable scholarship and his genuine love of his country, a country he worked every day of his life to save against elements, elements of endless power backed by endless money that live only to spread fear, lies and to cripple each generation more than the last.
I had written an article recently criticizing the Supreme Courts recent 5/4 decision to allow corporations unlimited ability to influence elections. I have a reasonable background in Constitutional history, the document itself and most of the schools of interpretation. On a personal note, I figure that 2 or 3 of the 5 judges who voted in the majority must be insane and 2 others either bribed or their families were being held hostage by a drug cartel. I tried to explain the ramifications to American independence as best I could, but I still receive “think tank” responses from readers, Cato, Heritage etc., that backed the most insane and anti-American act of our country’s history. Zinn lived to give Americans intellectual tools and strength of character to toss aside lies like this. He is gone. We can hope his words will reach more of those around us.
Our children shouldn’t have to suffer, living in a country we bankrupted thru ignorance, an ignorance some still value above their families, their nation and their sanity. Howard Zinn was about sanity.

- - Tell President Obama he's just wrong on nuclear power
In his State of the Union speech, President Barack Obama spoke in support of "safe, clean nuclear power."
We need to tell President Obama that nuclear power is neither safe nor clean, and is not an acceptable means of addressing the climate crisis. Recycling energy talking points from George W. Bush does not lead to meaningful climate policies, it leads to continued taxpayer bailouts of giant energy corporations.
Candidate Obama knew this. You can go here to see a Youtube video of Obama expressing his concern for his daughters living in Chicago and surrounded by nuclear reactors. He specifically says he is not a nuclear proponent. And he specifically opposes taxpayer subsidies for new nuclear reactors.
That's the Obama we need in the White House. Remind Obama of his earlier positions and encourage him to stop any taxpayer support for nuclear power. As always, feel free to edit the sample letter below to reflect your own concerns.
We also need to change the entire tenor of debate in Washington. One first step is to send a letter to the editor of your local newspaper. We've made it easy for you to do so. Go here to get started:

- - Last Decade Warmest Ever: NASA
Published on January 22, 2010 by Agence France Presse
WASHINGTON - The past decade was the warmest ever on Earth, a new analysis of global surface temperatures released by NASA showed Thursday.
The US space agency also found that 2009 was the second-warmest year on record since modern temperature measurements began in 1880. Last year was only a small fraction of a degree cooler than 2005, the warmest yet, putting 2009 in a virtual tie with the other hottest years, which have all occurred since 1998.
According to James Hansen, who heads NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, global temperatures change due to variations in ocean heating and cooling.
"When we average temperature over five or 10 years to minimize that variability, we find global warming is continuing unabated," Hansen said in a statement.

Merton—The Value of Essential Works
Do not depend on the hope of results.
When you are doing the sort of work
you have taken on, essentially an
apostolic work, you may have to face
the fact that your work will be apparently
worthless and even achieve no result at all,
if not perhaps results opposite to what you expect.
As you get used to this idea, you start more and more
to concentrate not on the results but on the value,
the rightness, the truth of the work itself.

Editor’s Notes:
The top quote of this issue is highly relevant for those denying the hard evidence of building demolitions and cover-up of what really happened on September 11, 2001. Without truth, President Obama, as in his December ’09 West Point speech, will continue to use the emotional events of that day to justify sending trillions of dollars and tens of thousands more US troops into Afghanistan. When I spoke up at a strategy session for 'peace activists' in Northampton MA, I received harsh criticism for saying how exposing the 9/11 cover-up was critical for peace and justice. This so-called 'Coalition of the Outraged' could not see the connection. The first item may only get read by those not under mind control or paralyzing fear. Jon Gold lays out the significance of that day, and why a real investigation is essential for peace, justice, and freedom.
Item 2 begins in the Copenhagen downturn for taking significant steps to lower fossil emissions causing catastrophic consequences in our environment. Following the Valley Advocate article, Online Journal Associate Editor, Jerry Mazza, covers Craig Hill's article published by Flyby News about a year and a half ago. It is as relevant today as ever, especially with Jerry’s putting new life into it, featuring the hocus pocus of Sarah Palin’s ideas, climate-gate, Alex Jones, and more. This section also includes a critical article about the work of Helen Caldicott, blasting environmental groups for supporting a new energy bill that would expand the dangers of nuclear power for generations to come. Note, too, the interview by Democracy Now! on a recent radiation leak at Three Mile Island. Christian Parenti discusses enduring "Zombie Nuke Plants" nationwide.
The last item begins with a 'white christmas' poem I wrote decades ago when my poetry used to mostly rhyme. In this item, too, is a wonderful article by shaman-connected, economic hit man, John Perkins, regarding the significance of December 21, 2012. Back when Flyby News was conceived, following the 1999 NASA-Cassini Earth flyby, I made a commitment until this date in 2012 for reporting news for life’s survival in the 21st Century. If we don’t have a major transformation by then, it won’t look good for our species and many others. Those following us know we have supported the Presidential campaigns of Dennis Kucinich, based on his efforts for the preservation of space treaties in Congress and for a Department of Peace. I contacted his office yesterday, and asked his staff to start thinking about another run in 2012. However, one person is always at risk for what may be described as a ‘terminal accident,’ as Senator Wellstone and family might have experienced, and many others. Which is why a Movement like 9/11 truth is key in exposing such a deception to overcome this reality with such dangerous consequences. Your support of campaigns like that of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth is crucial to give peace and justice a chance.
"The most common way people give up their
power is by thinking they don't have any."

Why we Fight
* We are fighting illegal preemptive wars against three countries. Afghanistan, Iraq, and Pakistan. The resulting wars have caused well over 1,000,000 casualties. Preemptive war is illegal according to the Nuremberg Charter, and the United Nations charter. These wars are destabilizing the entire Middle East, and causing anti-American sentiment throughout the world.
* In America, the Constitution is being forgotten with the passage of bills like the Patriot Act, the Military Commissions Act, and the John Warner National Defense Authorization Act. Americans are forced to wonder if their conversations are being monitored through the use of illegal wiretapping. The freedom of the press, and the right to peacefully assemble is being discarded.
* Executive Power within the United States is being expanded to the point of near-dictatorship, and accountability for the actions of the Executive, and other members of Government is non-existent.
* A constant state of fear is the norm.
* Billions upon billions are being spent on the previously mentioned wars, and things that are needed for the people are being forgotten about.
* Soldiers are dying, are being subjected to multiple tours of duty, are being exposed to depleted uranium and chemical weapons, are suffering from post traumatic stress disorder, are committing suicide at an astounding rate, are being fed propaganda in order to murder innocents, and are having their families destroyed.
The event that created the "Post-9/11 World" were the attacks of September 11th, 2001.
Every effort has been made by the American Government to conceal the truth about what happened that day. The “Joint Congressional Inquiry” was "limited in scope" thanks to the efforts of George W. Bush, and Dick Cheney. The "PENTTBOM" investigation failed to address a number of the families’ questions. The "9/11 Commission" was compromised from beginning to end, and was headed by Philip Zelikow, someone the families called for the resignation of during the 9/11 Commission, someone who re-wrote the 9/11 Report to be more favorable of his good friend Condoleezza Rice, someone that tried to insert a false link into the 9/11 Report between Iraq and 9/11, someone that shied people away from the NSA, someone that shied people away from Saudi Arabia’s possible involvement in the attacks, someone that is alleged to have taken the direction of Karl Rove, someone who wrote the preemptive war strategy mentioned above, someone who should never have been anywhere near the 9/11 Commission.
If the event that created the "Post-9/11 World" wasn’t what we were led to believe, and based on available information at sites like www.historycommons.org, www.911truth.org, or www.911blogger.com, it was NOT what we were led to believe, then we need to expose that truth to hopefully end the "Post-9/11 World," and restore this country, and this world to a more peaceful, and productive society.
As Dr. Martin Luther King said, a time comes when silence is betrayal.
Now is that time. For the 2,973 people brutally murdered that day, for their families, for the 9/11 First Responders that are sick and dying, for the millions displaced or killed in the Middle East, we MUST expose the 9/11 Cover-Up, and end the insanity of the "Post-9/11 World."
It is very simply the right thing to do.

- - Trail of Afghanistan's drug money exposed
By Julien Mercille
Asia Time Online - Daily News
December 16, 2009
Trail of Afghanistan's drug money exposed
As United States President Barack Obama and his advisors debated future troop levels for Afghanistan - which resulted in the decision to send an additional 30,000 troops - a new report by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) muddied the water on one of the most important issues in the debate - the effects of Afghanistan's drug production.
The report, entitled "Addiction, Crime, and Insurgency: The Transnational Threat of Afghan Opium," gives the false impression that the Taliban are the main culprits behind Afghanistan's skyrocketing drug production. It also implies that drugs are the main reason why the Taliban are gaining in strength, absolving the nited States and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) of their own responsibility in fomenting the insurgency.
In fact, the United States and its Afghan allies bear a large share of responsibility for the drug industry's dramatic expansion since the invasion. Buried deep in the report, its authors admit that reduced levels of drug production would have little effect on the insurgency's vigor.
The following annotation rebuffs some of the report's main assertions, puts in perspective the Taliban's role in the opium economy and highlights US/NATO responsibility for its expansion and potential reduction.
Taliban insurgents draw some US$125 million annually from drugs, which is more money than 10 years ago, [and as a result] the perfect storm of drugs and terrorism, that has struck the Afghan/Pakistani border for years, may be heading towards Central Asia. A big part of the region could be engulfed in large-scale terrorism, endangering its massive energy resources.
These claims are supposed to make us shudder in the face of an impending narco-terrorist seizure of a large chunk of the world's energy resources. UNODC states that a decade ago the Taliban earned $85 million per year from drugs, but that since 2005 this figure has jumped to $125 million. Although this is pitched as a significant increase, the Taliban play a more minor role in the opium economy than UNODC would have us believe and drug money is probably a secondary source of funding for them. Indeed, the report estimates that only 10-15% of Taliban funding is drawn from drugs and 85% comes from "non-opium sources".
The total revenue generated by opiates within Afghanistan is about $3.4 billion per year. Of this figure, according to UNODC, the Taliban get only 4% of the sum. Farmers, meanwhile, get 21%.
And the remaining 75%? Al-Qaeda? No: The report specifies that it "does not appear to have a direct role in the Afghan opiates trade," although it may participate in "low-level drugs and/or arms smuggling" along the Pakistani border.
Instead, the remaining 75% is captured by government officials, the police, local and regional power brokers and traffickers - in short, many of the groups now supported (or tolerated) by the United States and NATO are important actors in the drug trade.

Posted at Hunffington Post - December 18, 2009
Who is against jobs in the United States? The big banks, Wall Street, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Business Roundtable, the United States Chamber of Commerce, the National Retail Federation, Corporate America, the President of the United States, Congress of the United States. Everyone is crying for jobs, but no one seems to understand why there aren't any. And the reason for those opposing jobs is money.
Beginning in 1973, big banks made most of their profit outside of the United States. Industries off-shoring, investing, banks financing the investments, transfer fees, fees and interest on the loans made for bigger profits. Long since, the big banks under the leadership of David Rockefeller have led the way to off-shore and make a bigger profit. Goldman Sachs, AIG, Citicorp and Wall Street, conspiring for a bailout and now using it for bonuses, make more money from the off-shored operations.
The Council on Foreign Relations ought to be renamed the Council on Making Money. A recent PEW poll reported fully 85% of Americans said that protecting United States jobs should be a top foreign policy priority. But only 21% of the Council on Foreign Relations agrees. Financial interests organized the Business Roundtable to continue off-shore investment and profit. The local Chamber is for Main Street America, but Tom Donahue and the United States Chamber have sold out to the financial interests and oppose jobs and producing in the United States. Thirty years ago, hundreds of thousands of Arrow shirts produced in China were a best seller in the United States. But at Christmastime, the Chinese supply ran short and the retail stores had to order the same shirt from New Jersey. They made 20% less profit on the New Jersey shirt. Retailers are all for profit from imports and against domestic production and jobs in America.
Corporate America would fight any initiative by the President, the Congress, or the government to create jobs in the United States. That is, production that faces competition offshore. In globalization, U. S. production can't make a profit, can't survive. Its competition will off-shore the same article for a lesser price, putting you out of business. Moreover, Corporate America doesn't have to bother with labor in China. The China government controls labor and you don't have to worry about a work stoppage or minimum wage. All they have is a maximum wage.
And Corporate America doesn't have to worry with clean air and clean water or the environment in China. Nor does it have to worry with OSHA and all of its safety rules. Many times the factory building is furnished and you don't have to worry with capital costs. If you make a profit, you can just reinvest it in an additional operation and not have to pay any U. S. income tax. If the operation fails, walk away with no legacy costs. Corporate America bitterly opposes its government protecting and strengthening the U. S. economy because producing again in America will put the executives back to work. They can send a Jaycee to China to watch the quality control daily and sit on the 32nd floor on Sixth Avenue with the internet, keeping check, and, leaving early for a massage and drinks. With production in China they don't have to work.
As Commander-in-Chief, the President dithered for months over the number of troops. But he can't equip the troops except for the favor of a foreign country. The War Production Act of 1950 requires the President to make sure that we can produce in- country those articles necessary for our national defense. Enforcing this law would limit the campaign contributions. Under Section 201 of the trade laws, the President is supposed to take action, like impose tariffs or quotas, when a certain production is endangered. Not only endangered, our automobile production has been bankrupted. But all the President does is give Detroit bailout welfare. The President doesn't want to limit the campaign contributions.
The same with Congress. Senator Byron Dorgan of North Dakota long ago tried to allocate the tax incentive for foreign jobs and production to domestic jobs and production. The Business Roundtable and the U. S. Chamber fought it like a tiger and killed it.
As the President said in his West Point talk, there is fierce competition in international trade and globalization. All countries move to protect and build their economies while the United States goes out of business. The one advantage that the U.S. has is its richest market in the world. It is fast becoming the poorest market and the U.S. is losing any clout to maintain a strong economy.
The economy is in the hands of Summers, Bernanke and Geithner. Campaign contributions are in the hands of David Axelrod and Rahm Emanuel. The poor President is smart, diligent and working his head off campaigning. But he is inexperienced and not governing, and the Congress is in a Mexican standoff over an archaic filibuster rule that reveres democracy by the minority.
Of course, the media, which knows this and keeps it top secret, is owned by big business.
If I don't meet you in the breadline, my children will.
Merry Christmas!

- - Vote for 9/11 Answers in New Hampshire towns
Monadnock 9/11 Truth Alliance:
1. Vote for 9/11 Answers in NH towns!
2. Reserve Sat. February 27, 7 pm., for an evening dedicated to exposing 9/11 myths and facts,with well-known actor Daniel Sunjata, some film clips, and more. The band Northern Stone will open the program. Venue to be announced: probably in Swanzey, Keene, or Peterborough.
The Vote for Answers campaign: A lot has happened in the last two weeks! With help of the New York City group NYCCAN (NYC Coalition for Accountability Now), we are launching a campaign to get the following question on as many NH town ballots as possible, for their March annual town meetings:
"Shall New Hampshire’s Congressional Delegation be instructed to pursue a new and independent investigation to address thoroughly all of the evidence and unanswered questions related to the events of September 11, 2001? (The record of the vote on this article shall be transmitted by the Town of ____ to New Hampshire's Congressional Delegation.)"
In support of this campaign, we have prepared a powerful flyer with quotes (and photos) from nationally prominent figures such as former Senator Max Cleland, CIA veteran Ray Mc Govern, and Paul Craig Roberts who served under President Reagan. On the NH side of the flyer we have quotes and photos from a physicist, business owner, architect, and a fire protection technician, as well as this statement:
'As current and former public servants, it is our duty to raise our voice with those from across the country and around the world to call attention to the omissions and falsehoods in the official account of the events of September 11, 2001. The good people of New Hampshire are asked to sacrifice ever more in the War on Terrorism and yet there has been no true investigation into the events of September 11th for which this war is being fought. So long as our policies continue to be based on those tragic events, it will never be too late for honest answers to reasonable questions that to this day go unanswered. "
(Signed by current or former NH State Representatives Peter Allen, Peter Espiefs, Betty Hall, Charles Weed, and former Mayor of Keene Michael Blastos, featured with their photos..)
Only 25 signatures (or 2 % of a town’s registered voters, whichever is lower) are needed to get the question on the ballot. Some towns, Swanzey for example, have a January 12 deadline, others Febr. 4. Signature gathering is under way, or about to get started, in the following towns: Swanzey, Peterborough, Sullivan, Chesterfield, Harrisville, Rindge, Marlborough, Dublin, Wilton, Brookline, Barnstead, Hanover. (This will not work in cities, only towns!)

Bells rang from Copenhagen across the world
to warn us to lower greenhouse gas emissions.
Published by Valley Advocate, December 17, 2009
By Stephanie Kraft
Last Sunday, bells, drums, gongs and horns at churches, synagogues and mosques the world over sounded 350 times to tell the world to lower the volume of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to 350 parts per million. It was a plea for global cooperation to control climate change, as photos from around the world document the stages of that change: melting glaciers at the poles and in the Himalayas; cattle in drought-ravaged African countries dying of thirst; widening outbreaks of dengue fever as warm weather favors the proliferation of mosquitoes.
Earlier, in the U.S., while Republican Congressman James Inhofe was publicizing his plans to tell the Copenhagen summit on global warming that the U.S. Congress would not pass climate change legislation, the Environmental Protection Agency made an historic statement of intention to use the Clean Air Act to control greenhouse gas pollutants. The statement builds on a Supreme Court decision (Massachusetts vs. EPA, 2007) affirming that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases are pollutants under the Act.
The EPA's action could have dramatic effects on industry, especially the automobile and power industries. (Notice that Inhofe's largest industrial donors are oil and gas companies and electric utilities.) Representatives of those industries had hoped to avoid regulatory action, which they see as more rigid than the cap-and-trade legislation being mulled in Congress.
And the EPA's announcement gave Obama something to take to the table in Copenhagen even though Congress didn't pass climate legislation in time for the summit. The fact that industry doesn't like the EPA's statement may make it easier for other governments to force their industries to make concessions in order to get carbon dioxide in the atmosphere down to or at least not far above 350 parts per million, a quantity we can live with (it's already 390 ppm).
Cuts currently proposed would still see the volume rising to 450. The last time we had 350 ppm was in 1989; that was 35 ppm over the 1958 figure, 315.

- - One man's look at the global warming horizon
By Jerry Mazza
Online Journal Associate Editor
Dec 21, 2009
Sarah Palin's recent WP op-ed on climate-change led her from hockey-puck moms to manipulating emails on global warming and calling it "politicized science," in her words "Climate-gate." Would "politicized science," I thought be like "Intelligent Design" or "Creationism," those blessed miracles and worship of scientific ignorance? If so, my money goes on the reality of global warming and their scientists, including their disagreements as to the nature, pace, and/or total effect of its end game, climate-change.
Both linked articles will give a broader background on these multi-faceted subjects. They are fascinating reading.
Interestingly, in the middle of the Palin and Copenhagen chaos, came an email from Jonathan Mark, my friendly blogger from up north (www.FlybyNews.com) with an article he solicited from Craig Hill, former US Senate candidate from Vermont and 9/11 Truther as well. The article is now at 9/11blogger.com, aptly titled Global warming Crises & 9/11 Awareness. Hill came up with a short piece that clearly explained some dire instances of global warming, and compared it as well to 9/11, both problems we need to know about: the first to protect our political health, the second to protect our planet’s health.
Hill’s reasoning goes like this: “The damage done and the power abused by the perpetrators are not confined to the known effects of 9/11, however, but in many other socio-ecological-political realms. For a movement such as 9/11’truth,’ born of sensitive antennae, we bear signs of tone-deafness to other dramatic aspects of the oil uber alles bunch as they rampage the globe in suppression of freedom.
“The single greatest fact of our time is that we are well into the 6th Great Extinction. Much if not most of all species currently living will die out over the next dozens of decades due to our anthropocentric Godzillaesque footprint. There is much we can do to stop it, by slowing it down before it takes us with it, but if we cannot loosen the grip of the lunatics in charge, and soon, much of what we think of as ‘Earth’ will be unrecognizable to our distant descendants. . . .”
Ergo, what the 9/11 false-flag op and denying global warming have in common is oil, and gas and coal companies as well, and the desire to quench an unquenchable thirst for these fossil fuels, whose carbon emissions have been observed raising our global temperatures for at least 150 years. Coincidentally, the more the 9/11 perps win their hegemonic hunt for more oil, gas, and “clean coal,” the more the world will use them. And the less we will seek sustainable forms of energy, seriously hurting our planet.
It is interesting, too, that George W. Bush, who navigated the inside job of 9/11, rejected signing the Kyoto accords in his tenure. The accords called for the US to sign, as now they call for China (which also hasn’t signed) to sign. It seems the world’s two largest carbon polluters are still haggling over recognizing the problem, while the Europeans seem focused at the Copenhagen events, as in the past, on what strategies to put into effect ASAP. Effectiveness remains another issue.
As Hill writes, “We have perhaps five years to dramatically lower greenhouse gas emissions, including the burning of coal and gasoline via internal combustion, before positive reinforcement of the growth of C02 in the atmosphere begins to blossom exponentially to what it has so far, and life becomes literally unlivable for all but a few tortured members of the species responsible.”
I might add that reducing C02 levels would help in the short run, but it could take significantly more time until it is fully released from under the ice and the oceans. Nevertheless, I’ll take whatever improvement we can achieve.
Hill continues, "Throughout human existence, the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide has been atmospherically stable at 280 parts per million. Over the last 100 years, as that admixture has grown to 380 ppm, the greenhouse cap has been placed over the steeping pot and, just as it would on a tepid stove, the ice is melting, rapidly, from pole to pole, ice which is necessary to reflect heat and sunlight back into space. No ice, no reflection, and the poles act as a blotter of the trapped heat, increasing it to the point it releases, as will soon begin in earnest, methane trapped in miles-thick tundra around specifically the northern pole. Methane being about 20 times more powerful, albeit shorter-lived, than a molecule of C02, we near the conditions of a previous Great Extinction caused by equally massive releases of methane into the atmosphere. When C02 concentrations reach 1000 ppm, life as we think of it is pretty much kaput. Consider there are thousands of BILLIONS of TONS of methane trapped in Arctic tundra, and 1000 ppm does not sound at all far-fetched."
Now, I know Mrs. Palin can see the tundra, snow and ice from her kitchen window, but Hill does shed a bit more light on the landscape’s issues, including methane, which causes 4-9 percent of greenhouse gases, while carbon dioxide adds 9-26 percent, water vapor causes some 36-70 percent, and ozone (03) some 7 percent of greenhouse gases. Clouds can also affect the radiation balance, the first Wiki link reports, being composed of liquid water or ice and, therefore, considered separately from water vapor and other gases.
Hill also points out that “Computer models of the growth of warming since their inception in the late ’80s have been consistently understated, which is to say predictions made for 2020 have appeared in 2005, and conditions predicted for 2040 have been up ticked to appear soon. The poles and Greenland, which is the island along with Antarctica which will raise sea levels some three dozen feet worldwide, are melting at a rate 3 1/2 times faster than was predicted as recently as May 2007 (that’s right). Every glacier on Earth is melting completely away; that 40% of the world’s fresh drinking and growing water is dependent on streams soon to go dry is precursor to monumental dislocation, famine and death on a horrifically global scale. One glacier in Bolivia ceased to exist in 2008. The 200,000 consumers of its vanished water have nowhere to go. Rainfall patterns are shifting, which means even more increased drought in many more places than the few we are currently ignoring."
Let's hope that's a wake-up call to the caring to overcome the forces of darkness. Notice, the attempt to discredit material like climate-change due to global warming, came from Mrs. Slightly-To-The-Right-of-Ghengus-Khan, following in Bush’s carbon footprints. But then we see vocal 9/11 Truthers like Alex Jones pooh-poohing global warming as he pronounces the Global Elite as the ones running the oil-and-money show. On the second point, I agree with him. On the first point, I do not.
In fact, Jones appeared on a December 16 Conspiracy Theories TV show (truTV) with host Jessie Ventura and posited global warming as being used by billionaire oilman Maurice Strong along with financier Edward Rothschild, both members of the Global Elite, to control the world economy. To that end, they would like to establish a bank of World Conservation, with its own currency, and use the fund to reduce global warming, and most probably make themselves even richer.
Briefly, the cap and trade vouchers allow a company using more carbon emissions than it has vouchers for, to trade with another company that is emitting less carbon emissions and has vouchers left over. For all the obvious reasons, I don’t think “cap and trade” would really stop abusers. Non-exchangeable fines relative to the amount of overproduction would be a better solution.
Returning to Hill, he says, "The oceans can absorb no more of the heat we are so idiotically creating. They have reached the suffocation point to the degree the plankton, that basic foodstuff of the seas, is dying. The oceans will eventually emit more greenhouse gases than they are soaking up unless we stop our furnace-blast activities and institute renewables immediately, an imminently achievable short-term goal."
Now there is an equally scary thought, that the ocean running out of food for the sustenance of its bounty. There is mention of smaller, less hearty plankton in the first Wiki article, but no specific mention of the speed of depletion.
Hill also goes on to mention the creation of deserts via global warming. "Deserts around the world are spreading north and south from the equator. Earthworms, a reliable canary in this coalmine, are dying as the soil turns to sand. High nighttime temperatures, the hallmark of warming, are parching the formerly moist Midwest soil. Beijing has a desert right outside the city limits because its top-down beauracracy of political control is too institutionally myopic to grasp what it’s doing to itself. While the Amazon, the lungs of the planet, is being rapidly clear cut, the soil is desertifying, and once soil goes to sand (see the Sahara) it doesn’t come back."
Deforestation remains a good part of global warming, given that green plants absorb C02 for photosynthesis and emit oxygen in the process. As I said, I'll take the scientist’s truth not the witch doctor's trance, as Mrs. Palin did, to help voodoo her way into the US vice presidency, with presidential hopeful John McCain.
Lastly, Hill sums up his global warming/9/11 metaphor, "Despite all of this, or because none of it is being recognized, we think our most important goal is to get the [9/11] perps destroying our rights, and we are right, but for much greater reason than the merely wimpy human one that one form of governance is superior than another. As our fight goes on the world shrivels and desiccates. The realizations of 9/11 go hand-in-hand with warming in that, as we press our prime issue to bring down corporate government in toto -- like a skyscraper in its own footprint -- we do so, unknowingly, to stop the wars for oil responsible for the bipartisan policy that caused traitors to orchestrate 9/11 in the first place: So that we may move into the Age of Biology, to eliminate dirty 20th century energy in favor of clean green 21st century sustainable energy, to get a handle on warming, to ameliorate the great death-wish of its apocalyptic promoters, who are no less than the perps of 9/11, and who as with 9/11 have shrouded the evil effects of warming in unscientific myth and lie as they have poorly though successfully covered up the vast multiplicity of their other crimes."
He concludes, "Imagine how much more urgent and, yes, even energetic we would be if we understood even more the good cause we must win."
Bottom line, Hill's comments make broad geopolitical sense for the restoration of peace and our republic. And they make eminent good sense for the reduction of global warming. Remember, too, greenhouse effects are not just about gases, but global aerosols, soot, and solar variations. Thus, in the light of future mumbo jumbo re "Climate-Gate" or global warming being an urban legend, fuhgeddaboudit. Double fuhgeddaboudit. And let the lady from Alaska go back to her kitchen window and call to Putin across the tundra, like one of the wolves she loves to kill from her chopper, and ask him to do what he can to ameliorate global warming as well. Also, tell her to get a better op-ed writer, one who doesn't sound quite as Repuglican-on-point as the last one.
As WP Op-Ed Editor Autumn Brewington who ran Palin’s op-ed, she ought to resign and go to work for Rupert Murdoch, the emperor of jingo journalism.

Helen Caldicott Slams Environmental Groups
on Climate Bill, Nuclear Concessions
by: Art Levine, t r u t h o u t | Report
Tuesday 22 December 2009
Dr. Helen Caldicott, the pioneering Australian antinuclear activist and pediatrician who spearheaded the global nuclear freeze movement of the 1980s and co-founded Physicians for Social Responsibility (PSR), has joined with left-leaning environmental groups here in an uphill fight to halt nuclear power as a "solution" to the global warming crisis. "Global warming is the greatest gift the nuclear industry has ever received," Dr. Caldicott told Truthout.
The growing rush to nuclear power was only enhanced, experts say, by the weak climate deal at the Copenhagen 15 climate conference. The prospects for passage of a climate bill in Congress - virtually all versions are pro-nuclear - were enhanced, most analysts say, because it offered the promise that China might voluntarily agree to verify its carbon reductions and it could reassure senators worried about American manufacturers being undermined by polluters overseas. But at the two-week international confab that didn't produce any binding agreements to do anything, Caldicott and environmental activist groups were marginalized or, in the case of the delegates from Friends of the Earth, evicted from the main hall.
The upshot of the latest trends boosting nuclear power - although no nuclear reactor has been built in America since the 1970s - are indeed grim, she said. "Nothing's going to work to stop them but a meltdown," she said, fearing the prospects of such a calamity. "I don't know how else the world is going to wake up."
Her fears may sound apocalyptic, but as Truthout will explore in more depth in part II of this article, the dangers of a meltdown, terrorist attack and radiation damage are far greater than commonly known. That's because of what federal and Congressional investigators, advocacy groups and medical researchers say is a culture of sloppy security, health and safety oversight by a cozily pro-industry Nuclear Regulatory Commission. (An NRC spokesman denied those allegations in a written statement to Truthout.) The quasi-independent agency is funded primarily by fees from nuclear power plants. On top of all that, the Obama administration is planning to offer about $20 billion in loan guarantees to fund two new uncertified and risky reactors designs that have faced safety and cost overrun problems overseas.

Christian Parenti on Enduring "Zombie Nuke Plants" Nationwide
Democracy Now! - November 25, 2009
As U.S. Probes Radiation at Three Mile Island,
Christian Parenti on Enduring "Zombie Nuke Plants" Nationwide
Federal officials have launched an investigation of a radiation leak at the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant in Pennsylvania on Saturday. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission said about 175 workers were sent home when the contamination was detected. Democracy Now! spoke to journalist Christian Parenti, who says "Zombie Nuke Plants" like Three Mile Island should have been closed long time ago, but continue to operate.
[EXCERPT]
CHRISTIAN PARENTI - There are 104 reactors in the U.S., they’re all over the country. They were designed to last for 40 years. What has happened over the last several years is that half of this fleet of atomic reactors has been re-licensed for 20 years. There is actually a discussion of re-licensing some of them for another 20 years. What happens in many cases is that new companies bought them, frequently these old plants were unburdened of their dead at the expense of the ratepayers, and now you have companies like Exelon which gave over 225—$225,000 to Obama and has contracted regularly with Axelrod, David Axelrod's PR firm. So they buy these plants and they are now running them for an extra 20 years.
One of the problems is that radiation makes metal brittle, so these plants are in serious disrepair. There were designed to last 40 years and now will be used for 60 years. On top of that, there’s a process called uprating whereby these operators can apply to increase the rate in which to operate the plant and in some cases up to 120% of design capacity. For example, Vermont Yankee outside Brattleboro, Vermont runs at 120% of its design capacity and it’s at the end of its life. All over the country there are these problems of leaks, emergencies and it remains largely under the radar. Many in the environmental movement talk about atomic power in terms of the future and whether or not we should build a new fleet of atomic power plants, how we'll fight climate change. That is really not the issue, because new atomic power plants are extremely expensive. If all goes well, which never has in the construction of a single plant in the U.S., it would cost about $10 billion-$12 billion. Generally, they cost more. There’s $18.5 billion on the table.
The problem is, the federal government has ensured 80% of any private loans that will be made to build the new plant. But no one in Wall Street is prepared to invest in these things unless they get 100% public insurance. So there’s really not much investment there for it. There are these firms that would love to get on the gravy train of building atomic power plants; whether or not they ever come on line is another story.

3) White Christmas poem * 2012 & Breaking News
- - The True Meaning of 2012 – By John Perkins
Author, Hoodwinked
Huffington Post - December 7, 2009
The movie 2012 has generated a tsunami of controversy over an ancient Mayan prophecy. We can thank Hollywood for stirring up our interest. Perhaps we needed a film loaded with global destruction and special effects to awaken our collective consciousness to this time of transformation. However, the theater version misses the true meaning of the message those great mathematicians and visionaries intended us to hear all those many centuries ago.
As I head off this week into the Mayalands of Central America, co-leading (with Llyn Roberts) a couple dozen people on an expedition that will delve deep into the significance of this ancient legend, I am struck by the signs that we are indeed poised to experience events foretold by the Mayan prophecy. But do not expect them to resemble the mayhem displayed in the movie.
Although there are many different interpretations of this prophecy, the one most widely accepted by the Maya teachers I know is taken from the Popul Vuh, the Mayan creation myth. Far from predicting a Hollywood-style doomsday, it holds out the possibility of positive transformation. In its simplest form, the people overthrow an egotistical regime characterized by exploitation and deception and replace it with an enlightened and compassionate one. In the process, the people have to surrender their own egos and endure material and environmental hardships.
December 21, 2012 was identified by the Mayans as the time when this transformation will become most obvious. It was an auspicious date for them because their astrologers predicted that at that moment the sun would move into alignment with the center of the Milky Way. Modern scientists, not the Mayans, offer theories that are the basis for the film's thesis that the earth's climate and magnetic poles may be changing.
My book Hoodwinked explores the deep underlying causes of the events that have now sent the U.S. and the entire planet spiraling toward the very things the Mayans foretold -- economic and environmental collapse -- and what we must do to reverse this process.
The real cause of our current meltdown is predatory capitalism -- the mutant form of an economic system that encourages widespread exploitation to benefit a small number of already very wealthy people. A new geo-political system has emerged; today the CEOs of big corporations, rather than governments, control human and natural resources around the globe, as well as politicians and the media. Their arrogance, gluttony, and mismanagement have brought us to the perilous edge. In their relentless drive to amass ever greater fortunes, they have polluted our air, water, and earth, relegated countless numbers to the ranks of the unemployed, and doubled the gap between the few who live in mansions and the many who are malnourished or starving. They exemplify that egotistical regime described in the Popul Vuh.
When I wrote Hoodwinked I was not thinking about the 2012 prophecy. Yet, now, as I prepare to visit the incredible cities these ancient people built, I realize that in an odd sort of way my writing is part of a tradition that stretches back to those Mayan visionaries.
We have indeed entered a critical time in human history. A tsunami is rapidly building on the horizon. Every person on earth is connected like never before, through the Internet and cell phones. Most of us have come to understand that we are perched on a shore that is threatened by a mounting wave of economic and environmental disaster.
We have only three years left until December 21, 2012. Whether or not you believe in this Mayan prophecy, we can all agree that we must turn things around. We must abandon our gluttonous, exploitative ways in favor of lifestyles and systems that will bequeath to our children and grandchildren a world they will want to inhabit. By definition, we simply must become sustainable.
You may want to take a moment, next time you pass by 2012 on a theater marquee, to reflect on the true message symbolized by those numbers. The real message is a call to action based on the knowledge that we can transform ourselves. It echoes down through the centuries from a people who built the magnificent pyramids that continue to enthrall and mystify visitors to the Yucatan Peninsula and who also created one of history's most accurate calendars -- the one that ends in 2012.

it is the heart that hurts
when that is broken.
Jesus the man, Christ his symbol,
came with love but became an idol.
With joy he gave, he spoke,
a truth to live, more than just hope;
but, as Centuries went by, man manipulated
truth into lies, stating that heaven or hell
awaits those who do or do not realize;
yet death is just an opening door,
to allow us to go on with the thoughts
we lived with and for.

Editor's Notes:
Item one begins with a special article by Kevin Ryan, "Carlyle, Kissinger, SAIC and Halliburton: A 9/11 Convergence." Ryan is a former Site Manager for Environmental Health Laboratories, a division of Underwriters Laboratories (UL). He was fired by UL in 2004 for publicly questioning the report being drafted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) on their World Trade Center investigation. His article’s concluding sentence points to where freedom, justice, and security may benefit most: “Understanding and destroying terrorism might simply be a matter of understanding and destroying organizations that continue to profit from 9/11.” Following this and other major economic-intelligence news, make sure you read the article by Mike Adams exposing how the TamiFlu antiviral drug has been exposed as a 'complete hoax.' Following that is more critical news links.

[EXCERPT]
Careful investigation leads one to notice that a number of intriguing groups of people and organizations converged on the events of September 11th, 2001. An example is the group of men who were members of Cornell University’s Quill & Dagger society. This included Paul Wolfowitz, National Security Advisors Sandy Berger and Stephen Hadley, Marsh & McLennan executive Stephen Friedman, and the founder of Kroll Associates, Jules Kroll. Another interconnected group of organizations is linked to these Cornell comrades, and is even more interesting in terms of its members being integral to the events of 9/11, and having benefited from those events.
After the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center (WTC), a company called Stratesec (or Securacom) was responsible for the overall integration of the new security system designed by Kroll Associates. Stratesec had a small board of directors that included retired Air Force General James Abrahamson, Marvin Bush (the brother of George W. Bush) and Wirt Walker III, a cousin of the Bush brothers. Other directors included Charles Archer, former Assistant Director in charge of the FBI's Criminal Justice Information Services Division, and Yousef Saud Al Sabah, a member of the Kuwaiti royal family.[1]
Yousef Saud Al Sabah was also chairman of the Kuwait-American Corporation (KuwAm), which between 1993 and 1999 held a controlling share of Stratesec. The other owners of Stratesec were Walker and an entity controlled by Walker and Al Sabah, called Special Situation Investment Holdings (SSIH).[2] SSIH was said to form a group with KuwAm, and the group owned several other companies, including Commander Aircraft and Aviation General. In any case, the Kuwaiti royal family can be said to have benefited from 9/11 due to “The War on Terror” that removed Saddam Hussein from power. Of course, that was the second consecutive US war that Kuwait benefited from, the first being the 1991 Gulf War led by President George H.W. Bush.
Stratesec director James Abrahamson was President of Hughes Aircraft from 1989 to 1992, when Prescott Bush Jr. was helping Hughes lobby Bush’s brother, the US President, to lift sanctions on the Chinese government. Abrahamson became a director of Stratesec in December 1997.[3] He also co-founded a company called Crescent Investment Management (Crescent) with the Pakistani-American, Mansoor Ijaz. Crescent’s board of advisors included James Woolsey, the CIA Director for President Clinton who became a PNAC signatory and Booz Allen Hamilton executive.[4]
Mansoor Ijaz is the CEO of Crescent, and is a rare individual in that he claimed to have the ability to persuade several governments to extradite Osama bin Laden. After meetings with Clinton and his National Security Advisor Sandy Berger (who first introduced Woolsey to Clinton), Ijaz said that he could not convince them to work toward the extradition.[5] Additionally, Ijaz introduced the journalist Daniel Pearl, by way of a personal letter, to those in Pakistan who are believed to have been involved in his death.[6] Ijaz went on to become a Fox News correspondent, and he was a strong promoter of false claims leading up to the Iraq War, including WMDs and ties between Saddam Hussein and Al Qaeda.[7]
Stratesec had contracts to provide security services for United Airlines, and Dulles Airport, where American Airlines Flight 77 took off on 9/11. Another client was Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), where scientists were working on the development of nanothermite, a type of explosive material that has since been discovered in the WTC dust.[8,9]

- - $47 Trillion Lien Against U.S. Treasury and FED
By Christopher Story, FRSA,
Editor and Publisher, International Currency Review,
World Reports Limited, London and New York.
Monday 14 December 2009 02:30
[EXCRPT]
LIEN EXECUTED AGAINST TREASURY AND FEDERAL RESERVE IN THE SUM OF $47 TRILLION
Following further intransigent obstruction, the Chinese parties who obtained the necessary World Court Writ of Execution and Lien on the US Treasury and the Federal Reserve, duly exercised their powers and imposed the Lien on or around 6th December 2009. The Lien against the Treasury is in the sum of $47 trillion, which is approximately the aggregate identified by this service in 2007.
As happened shortly after the ‘lockdown’ of the $14.0+ trillion sovereign funds including the $6.2 trillion LOAN money provided by the British Monarchical Power [referenced again below] on 10th-12th September 2008, when the Editor’s voicemail received a message consisting of a recording of three actual gunshots, two specific threats, mentioned in an Update to the previous posting, were received on Sunday 6th December 2009, the date on which the Lien is believed to have been implemented. Transcriptions of these threats are given in Note 1 below (1) .
SPECIAL CONFIRMATION OF THE LIEN OBTAINED BY THIS SERVICE
We have obtained special confirmation of the foregoing Lien intelligence, otherwise, self-evidently, we would not have published this information. Furthermore, we have taken extra precautions to ascertain whether publishing this would be liable to ‘cause any difficulties’, and we have been advised that no impediment to publishing it has even been hinted at, although the fact that we possess the information ‘is known’. Indeed you will have observed that we have waited for a number of days in order to be sure that this shattering intelligence is fully confirmed.
We have been emphatically and authoritatively advised, since 10th December, that it is. We obtained reiterated confirmation of this intelligence, from New York, on 12th December.
U.S. HIJACKING OF THE FOREIGN SOVEREIGN FUNDS
Within the $47 trillion is the previously mentioned $14.0+ trillion, and that aggregate in turn embraces the above-noted $6.2 trillion of funds stolen from the British Monarchical Power by the criminal US Government, to which frequent reference has been made in this column. Those funds were transferred by the Bank of England to the criminal enterprise, Bank of New York Mellon (as it became, effective 1st July 2007), on 19th-20th June 2007 under levy, as we reported at the time.
Instead of disbursing the funds for the on-the-books Dollar Refunding Programme, as required by the sovereign LENDER, the named institution was party to a conspiracy involving other US criminal enterprise financial institutions, to divert and steal those real funds for use as a ‘platform base’ for leveraged financing operations to buttress their self-serving financial carousel.
SOVEREIGN FUNDS PLACED INTO ‘LOCKDOWN’ ON 10-12 SEPTEMBER 2008
After this had become fully apparent, and in response to this Editor’s strenuous recommendation on 6th September 2008 that the $6.2 trillion, in particular, was being abused in this manner, and that this state of affairs was intolerable – and further, that irrespective of the consequences, the only language these criminals would ever understand would be the removal of the funds from access by them and their associates – the entire $14.0+ trillion (within which total resided OTHER, non-British, sovereign monies) were placed into ‘lockdown’ (i.e. beyond the reach of the criminal operatives at the US Treasury and elsewhere) on 10th-12th September 2008 – a development that triggered the extreme crisis that overwhelmed London and New York at the beginning of October.
Coincidentally or not, scalar Hurricane IKE which developed on 13th September 2008 was probably intended to destroy the oil refineries and offshore oil platforms in the Houston area – the heart of the US oil industry. A sudden and temporary collapse of oil prices then followed, as did a quadruple witching day for commodities on Friday 19th September. Certain parties who had probably hoped to ‘make a killing’ that week, were wiped out instead.
BRITISH MINISTERS APPEARED TO HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT THIS BACKGROUND
It has since become apparent that the British Government appeared to have NO CLUE as to these background circumstances concerning the ‘lockdown’ of the $14.0+ trillion, given the subsequent statements by Ministers such as the City Minister, Lord Myners, that the financial system was within hours of disintegration at a critical stage that October.
A few days after the $14.0+ trillion was placed into ‘lockdown’, the Editor’s voicemail was enlivened (on the morning of 20th September) by a recording of three actual gunshots, as we reported at the time [see above]. This was an intelligence operation, as the recording could not be recaptured after being played the first time.
The Editor subsequently received special protection during his visit to Washington and New York for the Annual Meetings of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank in October 2008.
KISSINGER AND BUSH ASSOCIATES ARRESTED
On 8th December 2009, sources advised us that ‘a number’ of associates of Godfather George H. W. Bush and of the triple-agent Dr Henry (‘Heinz’) Kissinger were arrested on that date. Earlier we learned that three close associates of Bush 41 had been arrested: although the total was changed to five within 24 hours.
However despite several further, entirely separate, sources telling us that Kissinger is in jail, we have been specifically advised (as of 12th December) by authoritative inside sources that this IS NOT CONFIRMED. The position here is that when the authoritative source was asked to confirm this information, it was NOT confirmed. (This may be because he is 'no longer with us: see below). Had the source been able to confirm it, he would have done so, in conformity with the etiquette that we are told nothing officially: but if we establish information independently and then ask whether it is true, we are told: confirmed, not confirmed, or: we can neither confirm nor deny what you say.
For the time being, therefore, while we were naturally inclined to accept the accuracy of these reports about Kissinger, we cannot confirm them at the time of posting. Likewise, a report that Godfather Bush Sr.’s financial sorcerer-in-chief, Dr Alan Greenspan, was also arrested, cannot be confirmed at this time, either.
However you will recall that we have reported on two separate earlier occasions that Greenspan was arrested: and both those reports stand. Greenspan REMAINS under arrest, but is thought to be tagged. He may thus appear on TV talk shows as though nothing ever happened, which is NOT TRUE. On Sunday 13th December, Greeenspan was seen jabbering away as usual on NBC.

Obama's Big Sellout
The President has Packed His Economic Team with Wall Street Insiders
by Matt Taibbi
Published on December 13, 2009 by Rolling Stone
[EXCERPT]
Barack Obama ran for president as a man of the people, standing up to Wall Street as the global economy melted down in that fateful fall of 2008. He pushed a tax plan to soak the rich, ripped NAFTA for hurting the middle class and tore into John McCain for supporting a bankruptcy bill that sided with wealthy bankers "at the expense of hardworking Americans." Obama may not have run to the left of Samuel Gompers or Cesar Chavez, but it's not like you saw him on the campaign trail flanked by bankers from Citigroup and Goldman Sachs. What inspired supporters who pushed him to his historic win was the sense that a genuine outsider was finally breaking into an exclusive club, that walls were being torn down, that things were, for lack of a better or more specific term, changing.
Then he got elected.
What's taken place in the year since Obama won the presidency has turned out to be one of the most dramatic political about-faces in our history. Elected in the midst of a crushing economic crisis brought on by a decade of orgiastic deregulation and unchecked greed, Obama had a clear mandate to rein in Wall Street and remake the entire structure of the American economy. What he did instead was ship even his most marginally progressive campaign advisers off to various bureaucratic Siberias, while packing the key economic positions in his White House with the very people who caused the crisis in the first place. This new team of bubble-fattened ex-bankers and laissez-faire intellectuals then proceeded to sell us all out, instituting a massive, trickle-up bailout and systematically gutting regulatory reform from the inside.

For background on a citizen’s campaign for truth and justice, see:
http://www.voicesofsafety.com/pogonews/911/yearoftruth/
"Based on the first amendment to the U.S. Constitution, "The right to petition" contains an implied "obligation to respond" otherwise the "right to petition" is a meaningless right. The "Oath of Office" that every official takes states that they will "uphold and defend the U.S. Constitution". Violation of the "Oath of Office" by public officials is an act of treason per United States code 18USC Par. 2382, misprision of treason.
The Wikipedia definition of "Oath of Office" states: "Under the laws of a state it may be considered treason or a high crime to betray a sworn oath of office." This is the basis for the need of officials to respond to a petition by either signing the petition or providing a valid written reason for not signing. Betraying the Oath of Office is perjury; a felony."

2) Tamiflu Fraud-Hoax & other Critical Breaking News
- - Tamiflu anti-viral drug revealed as complete hoax;
Roche studies based on scientific fraud
by Mike Adams,
Editor of NaturalNews.com
(NaturalNews) When it comes to selling chemicals that claim to treat H1N1 swine flu, the pharmaceutical industry's options are limited to two: Vaccines and anti-virals. The most popular anti-viral, by far, is Tamiflu, a drug that's actually derived from a Traditional Chinese Medicine herb called star anise.
But Tamiflu is no herb. It's a potentially fatal concentration of isolated chemical components that have essentially been bio-pirated from Chinese medicine. And when you isolate and concentrate specific chemicals in these herbs, you lose the value (and safety) of full-spectrum herbal medicine.
That didn't stop Tamiflu's maker, Roche, from trying to find a multi-billion-dollar market for its drug. In order to tap into that market, however, Roche needed to drum up some evidence that Tamiflu was both safe and effective.
Roche engages in science fraud

Welcome to poetry blog page,
edited by Jonathan Mark
This page will be updated, changed, revised.. new poems will appear plus quotations, which to me are condensed poems full of meaning that can explode into awareness. Doing this will help me organize what I consider inspirational words, ideas and actions, including on issues of current events. For instance.. here are thoughts by Cynthia McKinney regarding the December 1 Afghan War speech by Obama, which also inspired above poem. Here Cynthia is calling a spade a spade and acting in humankind's best interest.
"Many in the special interest press are cynically reporting the President's speech tonight as an "Afghanistan exit plan." We have now reached the point where those who make and interpret current events think they can make us believe that war is for peace, ignorance is strength, slavery is freedom, and lies are the truth. Well, we know the truth, and we will not rest until every drone is stopped and no more bombs are dropped. We will not rest until peace is won. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said there comes a time when we do what we must because our ultimate measure is not where we stand in moments of comfort and convenience, but where we stand at times of challenge and controversy. At this time of challenge, we are clear: we will not give up and we will not stop."

Important Notice to Friends of the Monadnock 9/11 Truth Alliance
An important new NH initiative will be discussed on Thursday 12/3 in Keene to place the issue for a real investigation of 9/11 on New Hampshire March 2010 town ballots. In most towns only 25 signatures are needed to accomplish this. Even if you have never intended one of our meetings, consider coming to this one! Especially if you live in a town where such action might be a possibility. Details below in the note that went out to members.
Subject: THURS. 12/3 MEETING AT REC CENTER IN KEENE
We have a very important meeting scheduled for Thursday Dec. 3 at 6:45 pm. We plan to end it no later than 9 pm. One of the main topics will be a campaign to get a real investigation of 9/11 on NH March 2010 town ballots. Ted Walter of the NYC Coalition for Accountability Now is planning to attend. NYC CAN is offering to sponsor and help this campaign. We will meet at the Keene Recreation Center, 312 Washington St., in a large meeting room upstairs. The RecCenter is about 1/2 mile north of Central Square. It's a large red-brick building, on the west side of Washington St. The parking lot should have plenty of space.
New Beginning, New End
Time forged in mystery
Flowing to drips of anxiousness
Sweating out toxins and breathing in space
Where none existed before,
Except in our minds; now
Trembling into a disappearing act –
Frozen in fear as glaciers melt away
And consumption is on its last binge..
Where tomorrow holds uncertainty
And logic is confined in its space
Between denial and insanity,
Or perhaps science is on its last breath and voyage
From the perspective of humankind-nature,
And yet, a new day begins.

Morning Star
If there was a morning star
and I found a path to a mountain reservoir,
And viewed the past in moments of today,
I must say, I have found a way. Chosen,
because I choose to do what I came here for,
Realizing I have seen it all before,
a deja-vu from a morning star;
Reawakening love to a planet
which has strayed much too far.

Happiness
Happiness comes from a large garden
full of the fruits of the most sacred things..
The delicate flowers unfold a fragrance
to behold the image worth living.
O' purple majesty, violet rays of God's tranquility,
tell us about compassion, and the green depth of grass
and pines do heal, swirling leaves in the wind say,
"Come out into the sun and feel." And air currents carry
the moisture, in its core the life force, absolutely pure,
and we bathe in light and color and learn to see the positive
behind everything.. and the backdrop of blue, blue sky,
brings the heavens closer to the real world of dreams
and visions that one can fly.. and to understand the
shapes of clouds creates an artistic eye . . .
to know the spiritual wonders of illumination,
to be on Earth and reach out ever so high.

The following contains news updates and a letter to President Obama by Cynthia McKinney. Please support a campaign to call Obama today to resist the shadow US government's foreign policy in its war in Afghanistan. Ask Obama, too, while on the call to free Leonard Peltier. His continued imprisonment is a sign for many that the US justice system is bias and a sham. Also note more evidence of the catastrophic effects from human induced Global Warming.

22 November 2009
"Mr. President:
I am writing to urge you to announce an immediate cease-fire followed by a withdrawal of all US troops from Iraq and Afghanistan in the fastest way consistent with the safety of our forces.
I urge you to end the use of Predator drones that kill civilians.
I call upon you to cease all covert operations in Africa, Asia, and North and South America.
Too many of your military advisors are implicated in torture, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and crimes against the peace. Your Justice Department operates at the zenith of injustice, defending Bush Administration criminality in U.S. Courtrooms.
I wrote to you earlier suggesting that if you did not investigate the crimes of the Bush Administration, you would be viewed as their accessory. Sadly, war crimes and torture are now committed with your name on them.
Please bring our troops home now."

NASA Director: 9/11 'Controlled Demolition'
PRESS RELEASE: November 19, 2009
Contact: Colorado911Visibility.org
Don Plummer, 970-234-4430
FORMER NASA DIRECTOR SAYS THE WORLD TRADE CENTER
TOWERS WERE FELLED BY CONTROLLED DEMOLITION
On October 21st at the University of San Diego, Mr. Dwain Deets, former Director of NASA Aerospace Projects, gave a multimedia presentation on behalf of nearly one thousand architects and engineers who cite evidence of explosive demolition in all three World Trade Center skyscrapers on 9/11 and are calling for a new, independent investigation into their destruction. These architects and engineers are listed on their website at ae911Truth.org.
Mr. Deets was an engineering executive with NASA Dryden Flight Research Center for more than 37 years and formerly served as Director, Research Engineering Division at Dryden. He received the Presidential Meritorious Rank Award in the federal government's Senior Executive Service (1988). In 1986, Deets was awarded the Wright Brothers Lectureship in Aeronautics, a distinguished speaking engagement sponsored by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA).
Resolutely empirical, non-political, and non-finger-pointing, ae911Truth only asks for a new investigation of the towers’ collapse that does justice to the forensic evidence it presents. The concerns presented by Mr. Deets and the conclusions of Architects and Engineers for 911 Truth are shared by hundreds of scientists; senior-level military, intelligence, and government officials; firefighters; pilots and aviation professionals; scholars and university professors; 9/11 survivors and family members; and media professionals around the world.
Mr. Deets will continue giving presentations and is in the writers group for ae911Truth.org

Editor's Notes:
The subject of the dangerous H1N1 (with evidence of it being created in a laboratory) begins this issue. The article by Dr. Leonard Horowitz discloses potential conflicting interest in his helping to formulate and market OxySilver™, an advanced silver hydrosol. FN also discloses being affiliated with this product. As this 17-page report shows: “The entire class of nanosilver solutions is gaining substantial scientific support and recognized value in healthcare for service in disease remediation and health promotion.” This product could be a lifesaver. All funds received from FN's affiliation is used to cover our expenses for campaigns for life’s survival in the 21st Century. On this subject, too, I recommend watching and sharing The WHO Flu Scam DVD.
In item 2, learn about the DVD of Germany, the NAZI connection with the head of US intelligence corruption, George Bush, Sr., following the path set forth by his father in supporting a fascist new world takeover. Many separate one issue from another. The larger story is almost too much to take in. But what are our options? The US basis for its military invasion-occupation of Afghanistan is based on the ‘official’ version (myth) of what happened on September 11, 2001. Only the truth will set us free. Meanwhile, Christopher Story and others are showing signs of an awakening world at the brink of global financial failure. Also in the second item too, take note of The American Ruling Class, a dramatic, musical, documentary satire that attempts to answer the question 'Who rules America?' The interview-segment with James Baker was particularly satisfying in its exposing corrupt doublespeak-evil of this man who was involved in the 2000 election coup d'etat. And don't miss the link to take action, Support The Goldstone Report.
Meanwhile, the snowcap is melting away atop Mount Kilimanjaro. Crises are looming almost on every level. Climate chief Lord Stern gives practical and healthful advice for humans to give up meat for lowering our carbon footprint on the planet. In the fourth item, Peter Matthiessen, author of The Spirit of Crazy Horse, writes an op-ed in the NY Times, “The Tragedy of Leonard Peltier vs. the US.” In the last item, catch up on all the recent posts at FN. Note especially Stephanie Kraft's October 22nd article, “Flying Girders, Falling Towers” on Richard Gage, AIA, presentation in Northampton, MA. It begins with the question: "Is the public ready to consider evidence that controlled demolition brought down the World Trade Center skyscrapers?" It concludes: "Increasingly, the signs are that they will."

In a new article in The Atlantic, Shannon Brownlee examines how some flu experts are challenging the medical orthodoxy and arguing that for those most in need of protection, flu shots and antiviral drugs may provide little to none. So where does that leave us if a bad pandemic strikes? Shannon Brownlee is the author of the bestselling book Overtreated: Why Too Much Medicine Is Making Us Sicker and Poorer.

OxySilver™: The “Green” Technology Making
Risky Vaccinations and Toxic Antibiotics Obsolete
By
Leonard G. Horowitz
DMD, MA, MPH, DNM, DMM
The author discloses potential conflicting interest in helping to formulate and market OxySilver™ an advanced silver hydrosol. The entire class of nanosilver solutions has gained substantial scientific support and recognized value in healthcare for service in disease remediation and health promotion.
Abstract
Drug makers profit billions of dollars annually from the sale of toxic antibiotics and risky vaccines. These antimicrobial methods accepted by the medical mainstream are often responsible for pollution and myriad side-effects. The use of antibiotics upsets the microbial balance of ecology and the human body. It promotes the evolution of “super germs” that require stronger chemotherapies.
Vaccines may have worse consequences. Inoculations of foreign proteins, heavy metals, and toxic chemicals tax the immune system and detoxification organs triggering auto-immune diseases, neuro-degenerative ailments, learning disabilities such as autism and more. Cancers are linked to some vaccine contaminations. To remedy these arguably criminal inequities, an advanced silver hydrosol has been developed as a “green technology” alternative to risky vaccinations and toxic antibiotics. OxySilver operates hydrosonically and energetically to save lives and costs as a far safer and proven effective broad spectrum solution to nearly all infectious diseases.
Targeting pathogenic bacteria, fungi, and viruses; OxySilver generally spares beneficial flora in the gut and supports, rather than stresses, the immune system, neurology, and general constitution. In addition, OxySilver, and silver hydrosols in general, do not encourage microbial mutations forming “super bugs” as do antibiotics. Given all the science that has advanced, OxySilver may be the “silver bullet” humanity has sought for freedom from infectious diseases.

How Wall Street and Its Backers on Capitol Hill
Silenced a Critic Calling for Regulation of Derivatives
Broadcast 02 November 2009 by DemocracyNow!
Last month, when the a subcommittee of the House Financial Services Committee held a hearing on the derivatives market, Robert Johnson was the only non-industry expert invited to speak. The former economist at the Senate Banking Committee and the Senate Budget Committee was invited just sixteen hours before the hearing. His testimony was cut short after five minutes by Congresswoman Melissa Bean, and the committee has since refused to post online his full testimony along with the statements of the other panelists. Robert Johnson comes on Democracy Now! to explain what he tried to tell Congress.

- - The American Ruling Class ~ and rave reviews
THE AMERICAN RULING CLASS
This is a highly entertaining dramatic documentary musical written by Lewis Lapham and directed by John Kirby that “explores our country’s most taboo topic: class, power and privilege in our nominally democratic republic.” It seeks to answer the question, “Does America have a ruling class?”
Serving as an oddly Vincent Price-like master of ceremonies, Lapham poses a simple question: Is there a ruling class in America, and, if so, how does one get in? To find the answer, he sends two fictional Yale grads on a series of interviews, some candid and some staged, with such power brokers as former secretary of State James Baker as well as progressive icons, such as Howard Zinn, filmmaker Robert Altman, Barbara Ehrenreich, Kurt Vonnegut, and Pete Seeger.
At bottom “The American Ruling Class” is a morality tale. As Lapham conducts them through the corridors of power: Pentagon press briefings, the World Economic Forum, philanthropic foundations, Washington law firms, corporations, banks, the Council on Foreign Relations, and New York society dinners--our two representative graduates “one rich and the other not so rich” must struggle with their responsibilities in “a world collaterally damaged by the magic of money and the miracles of science.” The real-life luminaries they meet on their journey become characters in a story about power, its responsibilities and abuses.

- Matthew Hays, Montreal Mirror
“A brilliant documentary/comedy, part Monty Python, part Michael Moore; brings to life the question: Can one join the power elite and yet work for the public interest?”
- Joseph A. Soares, Professor of Sociology, Wake Forest University,
Author, Power of Privilege: Yale and America’s Elite Colleges
“THE AMERICAN RULING CLASS is a crowning achievement of cinematic sociology… a must-see for those concerned about the future of our economy and social order.”
- Kevin T. Leicht, Professor and Director of the Institute

Post-Industrial Peasants: The Illusion of Middle Class Prosperity
“A satirical tour through the corridors of power with Lewis Lapham… The film takes on our political and financial elites, the top of America’s food chain, but it’s all for a purpose: to remind us of those who are struggling just to make ends meet.”
-Bill Moyers
“THE AMERICAN RULING CLASS is the most cinematically subversive film to come along this decade. Led by the extremely lucid and funny Lewis Lapham, the nation’s number one intellectual treasure, the film takes us on a luminous quest… Director John Kirby has fashioned a sly film; it plays with form, but is populist in outreach, transcending documentary expectations with wit, style and political savvy.”

- - Brzezinski Says Ignore US Public on Afghanistan
By David Swanson
Zbigniew Brzezinski spoke at a RAND Corporation forum on Afghanistan in a Senate caucus room on Thursday. His first statement was that “Withdrawal from Afghanistan in the near future is a No-No.” He offered no reasons why and suggested that his other statements would be more controversial.
During a subsequent question-and-answer period, I asked Brzezinski, former National Security Advisor to President Jimmy Carter, why he had provided no rationale for his first rule. I asked him why such a rule should be considered uncontroversial when approximately half of Americans oppose the occupation of Afghanistan. I asked how he would respond to the arguments of a US diplomat who just resigned in protest.
Brzezinski’s response would make Dick “So?” Cheney proud. He responded that it was understandable but that a lot of people are weak and don’t know any better, and they should be ignored. But, he urged that those supporters of war who would criticize the president if he pulled out should be feared and followed.
These are paraphrases. For exact wording get the video.

Appeals Court Rules in Maher Arar Case:
Innocent Victims of Extraordinary Rendition Cannot Sue in US Courts
On Monday, a federal court of appeals dismissed Canadian citizen Maher Arar’s case against US officials for their role in sending him to Syria to be tortured. The Second Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that victims of extraordinary rendition cannot sue Washington for torture suffered overseas, because Congress has not authorized such lawsuits. In 2002, Syrian-born Maher Arar was held in New York on his way back to Canada from a family vacation in Tunisia. A subsequent Canadian public inquiry has shown Arar was held on erroneous advice from Canadian officials who accused him of ties to Islamic militants. US authorities then flew Arar to Syria, where he was imprisoned and tortured for a year. Canadian authorities exonerated Arar in 2007, apologized for their role in his torture, and awarded him a multi-million-dollar settlement.

Israeli Activists Criticize US House for Considering Resolution
Condemning Goldstone Report on Israeli War Crimes in Gaza
The House is expected to overwhelmingly vote today to condemn a UN inquiry that found Israel committed scores of war crimes in its three-week assault on the Gaza Strip. Headed by the South African jurist Richard Goldstone, the inquiry also accused Hamas of war crimes and said both sides should investigate the allegations or face international prosecution. Over 1,300 Palestinians were killed in the Israeli attack, a majority of them civilians. Nine Israelis were killed by Palestinians and another four by so-called friendly fire. The bipartisan, non-binding House measure calls the Goldstone inquiry “irredeemably biased and unworthy of further consideration or legitimacy.” The vote comes one day before the United Nations General Assembly is expected to take up the inquiry’s findings.

3) Climate chief Lord Stern: give up meat to save the planet

- - Climate chief Lord Stern: give up meat to save the planet
People will need to turn vegetarian if the world is to conquer climate change, according to a leading authority on global warming.
In an interview with The Times, Lord Stern of Brentford said: “Meat is a wasteful use of water and creates a lot of greenhouse gases. It puts enormous pressure on the world’s resources. A vegetarian diet is better.”
Direct emissions of methane from cows and pigs is a significant source of greenhouse gases. Methane is 23 times more powerful than carbon dioxide as a global warming gas.
Lord Stern, the author of the influential 2006 Stern Review on the cost of tackling global warming, said that a successful deal at the Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen in December would lead to soaring costs for meat and other foods that generate large quantities of greenhouse gases.
He predicted that people’s attitudes would evolve until meat eating became unacceptable. “I think it’s important that people think about what they are doing and that includes what they are eating,” he said. “I am 61 now and attitudes towards drinking and driving have changed radically since I was a student. People change their notion of what is responsible. They will increasingly ask about the carbon content of their food.”
Lord Stern, a former chief economist of the World Bank and now I. G. Patel Professor of Economics at the London School of Economics, warned that British taxpayers would need to contribute about £3 billion a year by 2015 to help poor countries to cope with the inevitable impact of climate change.
He also issued a clear message to President Obama that he must attend the meeting in Copenhagen in person in order for an effective deal to be reached. US leadership, he said, was “desperately needed” to secure a deal.
He said that he was deeply concerned that popular opinion had so far failed to grasp the scale of the changes needed to address climate change, or of the importance of the UN meeting in Copenhagen from December 7 to December 18. “I am not sure that people fully understand what we are talking about or the kind of changes that will be necessary,” he added.
Up to 20,000 delegates from 192 countries are due to attend the UN conference in the Danish capital. Its aim is to forge a deal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions sufficiently to prevent an increase in global temperatures of more than 2 degrees centigrade. Any increase above this level is expected to trigger runaway climate change, threatening the lives of hundreds of millions of people.
Lord Stern said that Copenhagen presented a unique opportunity for the world to break free from its catastrophic current trajectory. He said that the world needed to agree to halve global greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 to 25 gigatonnes a year from the current level of 50 gigatonnes.
UN figures suggest that meat production is responsible for about 18 per cent of global carbon emissions, including the destruction of forest land for cattle ranching and the production of animal feeds such as soy.
Lord Stern, who said that he was not a strict vegetarian himself, was speaking on the eve of an all-parliamentary debate on climate change. His remarks provoked anger from the meat industry.
Jonathan Scurlock, of the National Farmers Union, said: “Going vegetarian is not a worldwide solution. It’s not a view shared by the NFU. Farmers in this country are interested in evidence-based policymaking. We don’t have a methane-free cow or pig available to us.”
On average, a British person eats 50g of protein derived from meat each day — the equivalent of a chicken breast or a lamb chop. This is a relatively low level for a wealthy country but between 25 per cent and 50 per cent higher than the amount recommended by the World Health Organisation.
Su Taylor, a spokeswoman for the Vegetarian Society, welcomed Lord Stern’s remarks. “What we choose to eat is one of the biggest factors in our personal impact on the environment,” she said. “Meat uses up a lot of resources and a vegetarian diet consumes a lot less land and water. One of the best things you can do about climate change is reduce the amount of meat in your diet.”
The UN has warned that meat consumption is on course to double by the middle of the century.

- - Snow Cap Melting Away Atop Mount Kilimanjaro
Democracy Now! – November 3, 2009
A new report has found that the snow and ice capping Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s tallest peak, is shrinking rapidly and could vanish altogether in twenty years. Eighty-five percent of the ice cover that was present in 1912 has already melted. Meanwhile, the nation of Nepal has announced it will soon hold a cabinet meeting on Mount Everest to highlight how global warming is causing glaciers to melt in the Himalayas.

Mounting Evidence of Extreme Global Warming
4) The Tragedy of Leonard Peltier vs. the US
By Peter Matthiessen
The New York Review of Books
Volume 56, Number 18 · November 19, 2009
www.freepeltiernow.org/matthiessen20091119.htm
On July 27, 2009, I drove west from New York to the old riverside town of Lewisburg in central Pennsylvania, the site of the federal penitentiary where early the next morning I would make an appeal to the parole board on behalf of the American Indian Movement (AIM) activist Leonard Peltier in his first parole hearing in fifteen years. On this soft summer evening, a quiet gathering of Peltier supporters from all over the country had convened in a small park near the Susquehanna River. Despite his long history of defeats in court, these Indians and whites sharing a makeshift picnic at wood tables under the trees were optimistic about a favorable outcome. Surely a new era of justice for minorities and poor people had begun with the Obama administration, and anyway, wasn’t Leonard’s freedom all but assured by the Parole Act of 2005, which mandated release for inmates who had spent thirty or more years in prison?
Leonard Peltier, an Ojibwa-Lakota from Turtle Mountain, North Dakota, was one of the three young Indians who were among the participants in a shoot-out with the FBI at Oglala on South Dakota’s Pine Ridge Reservation on a hot dusty day in June 1975. They were later charged with the deaths of FBI agents Jack Coler and Ron Williams. Ostensibly searching for a suspect in a recent robbery case, the agents had been warned by tribal police not to enter the property where the AIM Indians had their camp. Their intrusion apparently provoked a warning that led to an exchange of gunfire. Understandably outraged by the deaths of Coler and Williams and in particular by the fact that an unknown “shooter” had finished off both wounded men at point-blank range, their fellow agents would also suffer intense frustration and embarrassment when a dozen or more of the Indians involved, using a brushy culvert under a side road, escaped a tight cordon of hundreds of agents, Indian and state police, national guardsmen, and vigilantes who had the area surrounded.
More galling still, Bob Robideau and Dino Butler, two of the three AIM suspects in the killings arrested during the FBI’s huge “ResMurs” (Reservation Murders) investigation, were acquitted a year later in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on a plea of self-defense, as the third and last suspect, Leonard Peltier, would certainly have been as well, had he not fled to Canada. He was arrested there in February 1976, extradited back to the US, and tried separately. Though originally indicted with the others on identical evidence, he was barred by a hostile new judge, Paul Benson, from presenting the same argument based on self-defense that had led to Robideau and Butler’s acquittal. Furiously prosecuted as the lone killer and convicted for both deaths on disputed evidence, Peltier was sentenced in February 1977 in Fargo, North Dakota, to two consecutive life terms in federal prison.
The following year, when Peltier’s conviction was appealed, 8th Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Donald Ross denounced the coercion of witnesses and manipulation of evidence in his case as “a clear abuse of the investigative process by the FBI”; the US Attorney’s Office, too, would be sharply criticized for withholding exculpatory evidence. In October 1984, in an evidentiary hearing in Bismarck, North Dakota, ordered by the appellate court to review the possibility of a new trial, the prosecutor, US Attorney Lynn Crooks, had to concede that the FBI’s own laboratory had failed to verify the claimed ballistics link between Peltier and the murder weapon that was used to nail down his conviction—a shell casinng of disputed provenance that Crooks had called “perhaps the most important piece of evidence in this case.” Even so, Judge Benson refused to reconsider the conviction.
The following year when the decision was appealed again, Crooks finally admitted that the identity of “the shooter” had never been proven and was in fact unknown to the prosecution even when it was twisting the evidence to ensure Peltier’s conviction and make certain that its third and last suspect—by its own description, “tthe only one we got”—was imprisoned for life. Yet the appellate courrt, while noting that so much tainted evidence had deprived the defendant of his constitutional right to due process of law, found “no compelling legal justification” for ordering a new trial.
In a TV interview after his retirement in 1989, Judge Gerald Heaney, who had signed that astonishing decision, called it “the most difficult I had to make in twenty-two years on the bench.” The following year, in the National Law Journal, this troubled jurist held the FBI “equally responsible” for the deaths of its two agents; in a letter to Senator Daniel Inouye of Hawaii, he urged commutation of Peltier’s sentence. Questioned on the same 1989 TV show about the perjured affidavits extracted by FBI agents from a frightened alcoholic, US Attorney Crooks declared: “I don’t really know and I don’t really care if they were false. I don’t agree that we did anything wrong, but I can tell you, it don’t bother my conscience one whit if we did.” Properly outraged by this arrogant refusal to repudiate US government use of fabricated evidence, Senator Inouye, as a former US attorney, called Crooks “a disgrace to the profession.”
I first interviewed Leonard Peltier in Marion Penitentiary in 1981, and that same year, with his original codefendant Bob Robideau, I inspected the Jumping Bull Ranch at Oglala where the shoot-out had taken place. Later, after reading many if not most of the pertinent documents, including the FBI field reports and the transcripts of both trials, I returned to Oglala to interview local people and study the scene again. Like the FBI, I would hear all sorts of rumors about the many young Indians involved without learning which one had fired the fatal shots; however there seemed to me no doubt whatever that Leonard Peltier had been railroaded into prison.
Unfortunately my long book making that case[*] was quickly suppressed by libel suits brought by South Dakota’s attorney general, William Janklow, and an FBI agent named David Price. Eight years would pass before both suits were summarily dismissed and the book was back in circulation. Meanwhile Peltier’s long fight for a fair trial had won his endorsement as a political prisoner by Amnesty International, and his thousands of supporters throughout the world included the Dalai Lama, Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu, and the great majority of his own people in the more than 250 Indian nations that had formally demanded his release.
In Peltier’s first parole hearing in 1996, the examiner filed an internal recommendation in Peltier’s favor. (The US Parole Commission, like the US Attorney’s Office and the FBI, is under the aegis of the Justice Department: its examiner informs himself about the case, questions both sides, and appraises the new evidence, if any.) Yet in actions so belated and irregular as to raise suspicion of undue influence, the commission replaced that first examiner with one more to its liking and denied parole.
By then, the few bold lawmakers who had called for investigations had retreated or retired, and Peltier’s best hope was executive clemency. To that end, I wangled my way into the Oval Office and pressed my book about the case into President Clinton’s hands. In January 2001, during Clinton’s last week in office, as FBI lobbyists—the Association of Retired FBI Ageents and No Parole for Peltier—marched in front of the White House, I joined attorney Bruce Ellison and filmmaker Jon Kilik in a long meeting with the presidential and White House counsels in which we argued that granting clemency to an American Indian who could offer nothing in return was a bold symbolic step that could only enhance the President’s last-minute efforts to prop up his legacy.
The lawyers seemed impressed and hopes were high, but when the clemency list appeared on the Saturday morning of Inauguration Day, Peltier’s name was missing. The phone call I dreaded was put through from Leavenworth Prison in early afternoon. “They didn’t give it to me,” mumbled a stunned voice I scarcely recognized, the first time in twenty years of visits, letters, and telephone conversations that Leonard Peltier’s strong spirit sounded broken. With all court appeals exhausted and no hope of mercy from the incoming Republican administration, this aging prisoner was condemned to wait for his next parole hearing in 2009.
In the park in Lewisburg, people agreed that had the shoot-out victims not been “FBIs,” Leonard might never have been convicted; at the very least, he would have been paroled many years before. Someone in the park recalled the fear and disruption on the reservations caused by the FBI’s huge ResMurs investigation (which was widely perceived as the latest chapter in the long history of oppression and revenge against “the redskins who killed Custer” that had led up to the shoot-out). The killing that day in June 1975 of a young member of the AIM by a marksman’s bullet in the forehead had gone all but unmentioned, someone said, let alone investigated by “the Injustice Department,” doubtless because “Injuns don’t count.” How about Bob Robideau’s statement to an FBI man that he had been “the shooter”? Would the Parole Commission take that into account? And was it suspicious that Robideau had been found dead last February in Barcelona? (The official autopsy concluded that he had struck his head in a fall while suffering a seizure.)
With Peltier’s attorney Eric Seitz and the two other parole advocates —Dr. Thoom White Wolf Fassett, a Seneca elder and United Methodist adviser to Congress on Indian affairs, and an Ojibwa woman named Cindy Maleterre representing Peltier’s Turtle Mountain Reservation—I went early the next morniing to the prison, passing supporters waving “Free Peltier” signs at the entrance road.
In the hearing room the first to speak were the two sons of the late agent Jack Coler. After testifying to their family’s great loss, they suggested that if this man facing them today were to take responsibility and express remorse for those brutal murders he so stubbornly denies having committed, the Coler family might not protest his parole. But the three FBI spokesmen and the assistant US attorney who spoke next were content to repeat the same vilifications and distortions of the facts that won a conviction back in 1977. Locked long ago into their ResMurs myth, they insisted that Peltier was still a danger to the public and cited those provisions in the Parole Act specifying that parole may be denied if the subject’s release might “depreciate the seriousness of the offense” or “promote disrespect for the law.”
In response to the charge that Peltier has evaded his responsibility for those murders, Eric Seitz countered that the FBI and the US Attorney’s Office have evaded responsibility for their own illegal tactics in his prosecution. Otherwise Seitz made no attempt to retry a long historic case in a few minutes, emphasizing instead the prisoner’s exemplary behavior record, serious health problems, and other strong qualifications for parole under the commission’s geriatric and medical criteria. He reminded Examiner Scott Kubic that in a few weeks, on September 12, when Peltier would turn sixty-five, he would also become eligible for home detention under the new Second Chance program for elderly inmates designed to ease overcrowding in the US prisons.
Thom White Wolf testified that Peltier’s incarceration for nearly thirty-three years has been viewed both nationally and internationally as a gross injustice and a major embarrassment to our country, with a negative effect on the world’s view of how the US government treats its native population. When my turn came, I spoke to the points made in this article, adding how much this inmate had matured over the three decades of our acquaintance, not only as an articulate spokesman for his people but as an artist, self-taught in the prisons, whose work is admired through- out the US. And Cindy Maleterre assured the examiner that the prisoner’s Ojibwa-Dakota people at Turtle Mountain—including grandchildren he has never seen ”had already taken care of the parole requirements of social support, adequate housing, and steady employment (as an arts-and-crafts teacher and alcoholism counselor on the reservation), and were planning to welcome him home with a great feast.
That afternoon we left the prison with the feeling that Examiner Kubic had listened carefully and would recommend parole—a guarded optimism we conveyed to the flag-waving suupporters awaiting our report on the public road. But no one forgot how the examiner’s finding in Peltier’s favor fifteen years before had been aborted; in the next weeks, as so often in the past, the prisoner would have to suffer the suspense of desperate hope.
On Friday, August 20, federal inmate #89637-132 received terse notice that his petition for parole had been denied: not until his “15-year Reconsideration Hearing in July 2024,” he was informed, would he become eligible to be turned down again. In the unlikely event that he lives long enough to attend that hearing, Inmate Peltier will be eighty years old.
In his angry response, Attorney Seitz accused the commission of “adopting the position of the FBI that anyone who may be implicated in the killings of its agents should never be paroled and should be left to die in prison.” I entirely agree with Seitz and share his anger. For the prisoner and his supporters, the Lewisburg hearing had been hollow, with a predetermined outcome: The United States v. Leonard Peltier had always been a matter less of justice than of retribution.
Americans—those in public office especially—should inform themselves about this painful case and demand an unbiased investigation that might start with one simple question: If, in the thirty-three years since his trial, reputable evidence has ever emerged that Leonard Peltier was the lone killer and deserves to be in prison for life, why hasn’t the Justice Department produced it?
Without public protest, Peltier will not be granted a fair hearing since his prosecutors know that in the absence of honest evidence, “the only one we got” would be set free. Instead, this man’s life leaks away behind grim concrete walls for the unworthy purpose of saving face for the FBI and a US Attorney’s Office that together botched the famous ResMurs case and mean to see somebody pay. And who better for this fate than a “radical” AIM Indian who dared stand up to “legally constituted authority” in defense of his humiliated people, as he was doing with such tragic consequences on that long-ago June day?
In reviewing this case with an open mind, as surely he must in fulfilling his oath of office, Attorney General Eric Holder (the assistant attorney general in 2001) might reflect on his own role in the clemency bestowed by Clinton on Marc Rich, the notorious “fugitive felon.” He might consider, too, Rich’s consequent evasion of even a single day in prison in the harsh light of the eleven thousand days already served by a penniless American Indian who remains innocent before the law, having never been proven guilty.

Notes: The following contains some updated links at FN. Lately, FlybyNews.com is getting about six to seven times more page visits from The Netherlands than from the US. For this month, the US ranks behind: Spain, Great Britain, China, and Romania. With this lead story, I am quite thankful for an international appeal. Our overall stats for the month of September, 2009 - Unique visitors: 2536; Number of visits: 3988; Pages 82383; Hits: 86459; Bandwidth: 3.11 GB. The dollar going down is BIG news worldwide. It is questionable what the results of this will be. However, we know already that the invasion of Iraq failed to control the oil-specialized wealth domain by corrupt criminal Administrations. This following excerpt by Robert Fisk explains the current predicament and threat for more hostilities.
"Iran announced late last month that its foreign currency reserves would henceforth be held in euros rather than dollars. Bankers remember, of course, what happened to the last Middle East oil producer to sell its oil in euros rather than dollars. A few months after Saddam Hussein trumpeted his decision, the Americans and British invaded Iraq."
In my opinion from a perception of being active in campaigns to stop the escalation of endless war for more than ten years, World War II never really ended. This is why I appreciate the work of Christopher Story, who has been investigating international corrupt criminal monetary systems. Yet it has been the aggressive military program of the US that is threatening everyone, and other countries are responding.
Note, too, latest on Flu vaccine awareness articles. This pandemic, which comes along with financial catastrophes, could be used to justify martial rule. This possible direction, however, is confronting truth that shall set us free, via the exposure of the charade of September 11 and its aftermath. We need such an awakening to end the fascist elements that have infiltrated many countries to serve the elitists, controllers of wealth, that would prefer to maintain their current status.

Editor’s Notes:
Item 3 begins with Leonard Peltier’s statement about being denied Parole. Following that is another response on this by Jehan Abdur-Raheem. 9/11 Truth is key for peace, which exposes the Emperor with no clothes on. The war on terror is based on fraud, lies and deceit. Don’t let the distraction of health care get you confused, and allow swine flu inoculations take you down. Be awake, ready, and take actions to uphold and defend principles of the US Constitution. Dr. Leonard Horowitz is requesting you to copy, paste, and forward his letter (item 2) to your local FBI headquarters, and to others in your network. Check out the evidence in Dr. Horowitz's AFFIDAVIT. Working together there is a chance we can obtain an injunction to stop the deadly H1N1 Swine Flu vaccinations. And don’t miss the latest book by David Ray Griffin, “The Mysterious Collapse of World Trade Center 7: Why the Final Official Report About 9/11 Is Unscientific and False,” published by Interlink Books.
“Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts

which can sweep down the mightiest walls
of oppression and resistance.”

80,000 New Yorkers have signed the petition. As with every other NYC ballot initiative, the City of New York is denying the will of its people to vote on the issues it considers most important.
NYC CAN responded by filing suit, and on September 9 the City conceded NYC CAN did in fact submit enough valid signatures to put the referendum before the voters. Now NYC CAN is battling to prove the petition is legally valid. On September 28, the referee will report on the petition's legality, and a final determination will be made in the days that follow.
On the eve of the referee's decision, let us take to the streets in the THOUSANDS on behalf of the families, first responders and survivors of September 11th and the 80,000 New Yorkers who signed the petition. As the climate ripens and public opinion continues to swing in favor of a new investigation, this is our opportunity to send a message like never before. If we stand together, we can make history.

Wall Street Journal 11/17/05: "Even the most junior investigator would immediately know that the name and photo ID of [lead 9/11 hijacker Mohammed] Atta in 2000 is precisely the kind of tactical intelligence the FBI has many times employed to prevent attacks and arrest terrorists. Yet the 9/11 Commission inexplicably concluded that it 'was not historically significant.' This astounding conclusion in combination with the failure to investigate Able Danger and incorporate it into its findings raises serious challenges to the commission's credibility and, if the facts prove out, might just render the commission historically insignificant itself. No wonder the 9/11 families were outraged by these revelations and called for a 'new' commission."

- - The Mysterious Collapse of WTC Seven
Why NIST’s Final 9/11 Report is Unscientific and False
by Prof. David Ray Griffin
Global Research, September 14, 2009
[EXCERPT]
At 5:21 in the afternoon of 9/11, almost seven hours after the Twin Towers had come down, Building 7 of the World Trade Center also came down. The collapse of this building was from the beginning considered a mystery. [1]
The same should have been true, to be sure, of the collapse of the Twin Towers. But they had been hit by planes, which had ignited big fires in them, and many people assumed this combination of causes to be sufficient to explain why they came down.
But WTC 7 had not been hit by a plane, so it was apparently the first steel-framed high-rise building in the known universe to have collapsed because of fire alone. New York Times writer James Glanz quoted a structural engineer as saying: “[W]ithin the structural engineering community, [WTC 7] is considered to be much more important to understand [than the Twin Towers],” because engineers had no answer to the question, “why did 7 come down?” [2]
From a purely scientific perspective, of course, there would have been an obvious answer. Scientists, presupposing the regularity of nature, operate on the principle that like effects generally imply like causes. Scientists are, therefore, loathe to posit unprecedented causes for common phenomena. By 9/11, the collapse of steel-framed high-rises had become a rather common phenomenon, which most Americans had seen on television. And in every one of these cases, the building had been brought down by explosives in the process known as controlled demolition. From a scientific perspective, therefore, the obvious assumption would have been that WTC 7 came down because explosives had been used to remove its steel supports.
However, the public discussion of the destruction of the World Trade Center did not occur in a scientific context, but in a highly charged political context. America had just been attacked, it was almost universally believed, by foreign terrorists who had flown hijacked planes into the Twin Towers, and in response the Bush administration had launched a “war on terror.” The idea that even one of the buildings had been brought down by explosives would have implied that the attacks had not been a surprise, so this idea could not be entertained by many minds in private, let alone in public.
This meant that people had to believe, or at least pretend to believe, that Building 7 had been brought down by fire, even though, as Glanz wrote: “[E]xperts said no building like it, a modern, steel-reinforced high-rise, had ever collapsed because of an uncontrolled fire.” [3] And so, this building’s collapse had to be considered a mystery – insofar as it was considered at all.
But this was not much. Although WTC 7 was a 47-story building, which in most places would have been the tallest building in the city, if not the state, it was dwarfed by the 110-story Twin Towers. It was also dwarfed by them in the ensuing media coverage. And so, Glanz wrote, the collapse of Building 7 was “a mystery that . . . would probably have captured the attention of the city and the world,” if the Twin Towers had not also come down. [4] As it was, however, the mystery of Building 7’s collapse was seldom discussed.
For those few people who were paying attention, the mysteriousness of this collapse was not lessened by the first official report about it, which was issued by FEMA in 2002. This report put forward what it called its “best hypothesis” as to why the building collapsed, but then added that this hypothesis had “only a low probability of occurrence.” [5]
This FEMA report, in fact, increased the mystery, thanks to an appendix written by three professors at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. This appendix reported that a piece of steel from WTC 7 had melted so severely that it had gaping holes in it, making it look like a piece of Swiss cheese. [6] James Glanz, pointing out that the fires in the building could not have been hot enough to melt steel, referred to this discovery as “the deepest mystery uncovered in the investigation.”[7]
The task of providing the definitive explanation of the collapse of WTC 7 was given to NIST, the National Institute of Standards and Technology. Although NIST had been expected to issue its report on this building along with its report on the Twin Towers, which came out in 2005, it did not. NIST then continued to delay this report until August of 2008..
Conclusion
.. The Mysterious Collapse of World Trade Center 7: Why the Final Official Report about 9/11 Is Unscientific and False, shows that the official account of this building is indeed extremely vulnerable to critique – so vulnerable that, to see the falsity of this account, you need only to read NIST’s attempt to defend it, noting the obvious lies in NIST’s report and its violations of basic principles of physics.
I hope that my book will indeed help bring down that body of lies that some of us call the Bush-Cheney conspiracy theory, according to which al-Qaeda hijackers, by flying planes into two buildings of the World Trade Center, brought down three of them – an obviously false conspiracy theory that is still being used, among other things, to kill women, children, and other innocent people in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

What in the World is High-Tech Explosive Material Doing in the Dust Clouds Generated on 9/11/2001?
From AE911truth www.ae911truth.org/info/77 (Aug 24, 2009)
Nanothermite:
What in the World is High-Tech Explosive Material
Doing in the Dust Clouds Generated on 9/11/2001?
This powerful DVD now available at our online store contains the dynamic multimedia presentation given by Dr. Steven Jones in Sacramento, CA, on April 30, 2009. Included are follow-up Q & A and three bonus tracks.
Steven Jones, Ph.D., Physics Professor Emeritus, Brigham Young University, brilliantly presents his carefully researched new discoveries made as he analyzed the dust from the World Trade Center buildings, which was destroyed on 9/11/2001. Jones discusses the controversial new article in the peer-reviewed Bentham Open Chemical Physics Journal – the result of 18 months of intensive scientific collaboration – exposing "the loaded gun of 9/11."
An especially interesting part of this DVD is the reactions to Prof. Jones' findings by fellow faculty colleagues at Brigham Young University, as well as the way pressure was brought to bear on the university to silence any efforts to make these findings known to the public.
The beauty of the photos and the depth of understanding are breathtaking. The implications of this new peer-reviewed paper are profound.
Nanothermite, a highly engineered energetic nanocomposite, was conceived around 1990. By 2000 it had been weaponized and manufactured in top secret military laboratories. This nano-engineered form of thermite does not just burn extremely hot, it explodes.
Jones also updates us on various facets of the quest to repudiate the "official conspiracy theory" about 9/11, and describes current efforts to create a legitimate investigation with real subpoena power. This DVD is a must-have. www.ae911truth.org/info/77

- - 9/11: Blueprint for Truth World Premiere TV Broadcast
By Richard Gage, AIA
KBDI is a Denver-based PBS TV station with gutsy membership producer and executive director Shari Bernson. She had previously brought the groundbreaking 9/11: Press for Truth to her station for the pledge drive special showing and premium. It was the second most successful live pledge event over the last year, and still continues to be a strong fundraiser for the station. At that pledge drive, 9/11: Blueprint for Truth was offered as an auxiliary premium. As a result, viewer demand that it be broadcast, too, gave Ms. Bernson the support she needed to go the next step: showing the evidence for the explosive controlled demolition of all three World Trade Center high-rises on 9/11. That is courage. This was our world premiere television broadcast.

- - Sibel Edmonds Deposition re: 9/11 & Nuclear Trafficking
Video Clips submitted to 911blogger by loose nuke on Thu, 09/17/2009 - 2:32am.
Sibel Edmonds testified under oath August 8, 2009. Below are links to four video clips and transcript portions related to her testimony regarding 9/11 and nuclear trafficking:
1) Sibel Edmonds Deposition Video Clip: State Secrets Gag Order
http://wp.me/piSn2-dS
This segment covers her testimony regarding former Attorney General John Ashcroft claim of State Secrets to justify placing two gag orders on her. The first gag order was in response to her First Amendment case, the second when she was subpoenaed by 9/11 families regarding her knowledge of Saudi institutions and Al Qaeda financing.
2) Sibel Edmonds Deposition Video Clip: Nuclear Trafficking- US & Turkish Officials & RAND
http://wp.me/piSn2-dZ
This segment covers her testimony regarding the involvement of US and Turkish officials in a nuclear trafficking network, and the outing of Brewster Jennings as a CIA front company which was investigating them.
3) Sibel Edmonds Deposition Video Clip: Behrooz Sarshar – 9/11 Foreknowledge
http://wp.me/piSn2-e3
This segment covers her testimony regarding Behrooz Sarshar, an FBI translator who Edmonds took to the FBI’s Inspector General and the 9/11 Commission; Sarshar had personal knowledge that the “FBI received information in April 2001 from a reliable Iranian intelligence asset that Osama bin Ladin was planning attacks on four to five cities with planes. Some of the people were already in the country, and the attacks would happen in a few months."
4) Sibel Edmonds Deposition Video Clip: 'Cold War Is Not Over'
http://wp.me/piSn2-e8
This segment covers her testimony regarding US and Turkish government officials and other entities engagement in "... practices and policies that were inimical to American interests and had, in fact, resulted in both the direct and indirect loss of American lives." To summarize this, Edmonds says, "The best way to describe it is Cold War is not over." These 'practices and policies' include: CIA radicalizing Muslims for use in proxy wars contributed to 9/11; providing protection and aid, including US sanctuary, for Fetullah Gulan- a founder of radical Madrassahs; trafficking in nuclear secrets and outing Brewster Jennings as a CIA front company in Summer 01, when Marc Grossman discovered it was getting close to the nuclear trafficking network.

- - Why Propaganda Trumps Truth
9/11
By Paul Craig Roberts
September 15, 2009 "Information Clearing House" -- -An article in the journal, Sociological Inquiry, casts light on the effectiveness of propaganda. Researchers examined why big lies succeed where little lies fail. Governments can get away with mass deceptions, but politicians cannot get away with sexual affairs.
The researchers explain why so many Americans still believe that Saddam Hussein was behind 9/11, years after it has become obvious that Iraq had nothing to do with the event. Americans developed elaborate rationalizations based on Bush administration propaganda that alleged Iraqi involvement and became deeply attached to their beliefs. Their emotional involvement became wrapped up in their personal identity and sense of morality. They looked for information that supported their beliefs and avoided information that challenged them, regardless of the facts of the matter.

911truth.org - September 16 2009 - In the Media
Charlie Sheen 'Twenty Minutes' Elicits Another Media Character Attack; Still No Coverage of Questions
Two weeks ago America's media, led by the Washington Times and quickly followed by particularly vitriolic television personalities, blasted Obama-appointed "Green Jobs" Advisor Van Jones for various personal positions and actions taken over the course of his life as an activist. Chief among them was his name being counted among signatories to a Statement issued by 911truth.org in 2004 asking for answers to 9/11-related questions, signed by 150 other "notable Americans" and 9/11 victims' family members. The ensuing blood bath did not involve Jones' positions on "Green" issues, for which he had been hired to advise - nor did the "Truther" feeding frenzy ever ONCE involve mention of the 12 questions listed on that Statement, questions which remain unanswered now. Readers of 911truth.org are aware of this media side-show, which eventually led to Jones' resignation on 9/12, and no doubt read the statement we issued to the press in response to their calls:
As the eighth anniversary of 9/11 approaches, what doesn't make sense to us is that media outlets choose to impugn the character of the signatories rather than carry out your responsibility as watchdogs to call attention to the as yet unanswered questions raised in the 2004 statement. Five years later, we challenge you to finally print those same unanswered questions and pursue their answers with the same vigor with which you pursue the signatories.
Now, similar "news" coverage is attacking Golden Globe winning actor Charlie Sheen, who dared to ask for a 20-minute meeting with President Obama to discuss 20 points relating to - again - unanswered questions surrounding 9/11. Sheen produced a fictionalized piece, "Twenty Minutes with the President" in which he sat down with "President Obama" to asked about twenty of these yet unanswered questions. Bob McIlvaine, whose son Bobby was killed on 9/11, has also joined with Sheen in requesting this meeting with the president.

Barack Obama Abandons Missile Defense Shield in Europe
Decision likely to delight Moscow, which saw itself as the target, but is met with dismay by Poland and Czech Republic
by Luke Harding in Moscow and Ian Traynor in Brussels
Barack Obama has abandoned the controversial Pentagon plan to build a missile defence system in Europe. The move has prompted angry accusations of betrayal from Washington's eastern European allies but delighted the Kremlin.
In one of the sharpest breaks yet with the policies of the Bush administration, Obama phoned the leaders of Poland and the Czech Republic last night to tell them that he had dropped plans to site missile interceptors and a radar station in their respective countries. Russia had furiously opposed the project, claiming it targeted Moscow's nuclear arsenal.

- - Ex-CIA Chiefs Seek Halt to Interrogations Probe
Published on September 18, 2009 by the Associated Press
WASHINGTON - Seven former CIA directors asked President Barack Obama on Friday to quash a criminal probe of harsh interrogations of terror suspects during the Bush administration.
The CIA directors, who served both Democratic and Republican presidents and include three who worked under President George W. Bush, made their request in a letter sent Friday to the White House.
Attorney General Eric Holder announced last month that he was appointing an independent counsel to investigate possible incidents of abuse by CIA personnel during interrogations that went beyond guidelines imposed by the Bush administration.
The incidents were referred by the CIA inspector general to the Justice Department during the Bush administration, but Justice officials at the time prosecuted only one case.
"If criminal investigations closed by career prosecutors during one administration can so easily be reopened at the direction of political appointees in the next, declinations of prosecution will be rendered meaningless," wrote the former directors.
The seven former CIA directors included Michael Hayden, Porter Goss and George Tenet, who served under Bush; John Deutch and James Woolsey, who worked for President Bill Clinton; William Webster, who served under President George H.W. Bush; and James Schlesinger, who ran the agency under President Richard Nixon. Tenet also served under Clinton.
They urged Obama to reverse Holder's Aug. 24 decision to reopen the investigation of interrogations following the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

Friends,
The substance of the message below on a false flag h1n1 flu pandemic has been widely discussed on the net for months, but the message indicates the first serious US legal action I have seen on it. I have with the help of many been tracking this issue as it affects states and localities, anticipating the need to file injunction lawsuits v. any government taking steps to compel vaccination. It is presumed by Dr. Horowitz and others that government will attempt to compel vaccination v. h1n1, which is not possible under current law, especially US Constitution and state constitution law for many First Amendment and related privacy and civil rights reasons. I offer the message as a warning as to how serious the talks, research and some of the proposed h1n1 policy state laws under consideration opposing civil rights, especially in ME, MA and OK, have become.
Having read of lawsuits filed against h1n1 in Europe for reasons indicated in the below article, I am convinced that there is considerable reason not to take any new so called h1n1 vaccine, and to prepare for similar suits in the US, which I am prepared to do. {To lawyers receiving this message, I welcome your comments on how to prepare clients and friends to defend against unconstitutional h1n1 legislation and acts, and any common effort we might begin in the US).

LOS ANGELES, CA — Drug-industry investigators have uncovered documents exposing an international drug ring, operating from New York City, is behind the H1N1 swine flu fright and vaccination preparations.
Dr. Leonard G. Horowitz and Sherri Kane, an investigative journalist, have released evidence in legal affidavits that leaders of a private global biotechnology “trust” are behind the pandemic flu, including its origin and alleged prevention via vaccinations. Their documents, being sent by attorneys to the FBI this week, evidence industrialists are operating a crime ring within the “Partnership for New York City” (PNYC), and are behind the pandemic’s creation, media persuasions, vaccination preparations, and health official promotions.
“David Rockefeller’s trust, that engages several powerful partners on Wall Street, including media moguls Ruppert Murdock, Morton Zuckerman, Thomas Glocer, and former Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Jerry Speyer, are implicated in advancing global genocide,” Dr. Horowitz wrote to FBI directors.
“This ‘partnership’ controls biotechnology research and development globally. Health commerce internationally is also controlled virtually entirely by this trust that also exercises near complete control over mainstream media to promote/propagandize its products and services for the drug cartel’s organized crime. This trust, in essence, makes or breaks medical and natural healing markets, primarily through the mass media companies and propaganda it wields for social engineering and market building,” Dr. Horowitz wrote.
Among the revelations from the Horowitz-Kane research are those linking Larry Silverstein of Silverstein Properties, Inc., and the 9-11 terrorist attacks, to the drug cartel’s geopolitical, economic, and population reduction activities. Mr. Silverstein, leaser of the World Trade Center who authorized to have Building-7 “pulled” [detonated] is a chief suspect in the “9-11 truth” investigation. Silverstein is currently landlord and co-partner in the biotechnology trust founded by David Rockefeller and implicated by these new discoveries.
Given the unprecedented nature and urgency of these findings, Dr. Horowitz has posted his affidavit for public review on FLUscam.com, hoping wide spread dissemination will prompt governments worldwide to cease mass vaccination preparations to avoid becoming accessories.
“The last time I contacted the FBI I warned them about the impending anthrax attacks one week before the first mailings were announced in the press,” Dr. Horowitz recalled. “It took them 6 months to respond. When they did, they made me a suspect in the mailings. This time I am warning the Justice Department a month before the deadliest genocide in history. I’m praying they’ll take kindly to my appeal for a PNYC investigation, and Court-ordered injunction, to stop the vaccinations for public protection.”

From: Healthy World Message 17 September 2009
Dear Concerned Friends:
Please copy, paste, and forward the following letter to your local FBI headquarters, and to others in your network. Perhaps if we, en-masse in solidarity, urge the FBI to attend to the evidence Dr. Horowitz and Sherri Kane compiled for Dr. Horowitz's AFFIDAVIT, we can obtain an injunction to stop the deadly H1N1 Swine Flu vaccinations.
Thanks for doing this for humanity.

NOTICE OF URGENT REQUEST FOR FBI INVESTIGATION
Dear FBI Investigators:
I am writing on behalf of hundreds-of-thousands of Americans attending this communication through an extensive media network and a team of attorneys who support this NOTICE OF URGENT REQUEST FOR INVESTIGATION into matters stated herein.
Dr. Leonard G. Horowitz is a world leading drug-industry investigator that has served your bureau faithfully in the past as an expert in the anthrax mailings. Your records show that officials in the FBI made him a "suspect" in the anthrax mailings because his alert to your bureau came a week BEFORE the first mailings were even announced in the press. He is not a psychic. He uses hard cold science, filed patents, and other certifiable documents as evidence upon which he draws his conclusions. As a Harvard-trained expert in behavioral science and emerging diseases, he has studied and used in science for public service your bureau's Motivational Model for Sexual Homicide by Ressler, Douglas and McCormack in your Quantico facility. So he respects your bureau, and prays this NOTICE finds its way to individuals in your bureau that are trustworthy, reasonable, and concerned as public servants with saving lives, protecting people, and bringing criminals to justice.
For these reasons, and the urgency of his disclosures, I request immediate interrogation of him concerning the evidence and politically/economically explosive issues raised by his discoveries. This information and appeal demands a legitimate and urgent investigation of a criminal trust based in New York City, threatening the American people and others worldwide.
Dr. Horowitz prepared the attached draft of a legal AFFIDAVIT on behalf of attorneys who asked for his help in this regard. As detailed herein, Dr. Horowitz and co-investigator Sherri Kane uncovered stunning documents proving an international drug ring, operating within the Partnership for New York City, is behind the H1N1 swine flu fright and potentially deadly vaccination campaign "fast-tracked" for administration this fall; threatening widespread population intoxication with "live," genetically unstable, pathogenic viruses in a mixture of deadly chemicals.
Dr. Horowitz's discoveries show these suspects in this private global biotechnology trust are behind everything you ever heard about pandemic flu, including its origin and alleged prevention via vaccination. They are behind the pandemic's creation, media persuasions, vaccination preparations, and health official promotions seen everywhere from supermarkets to health clinics.
This is a David Rockefeller organized trust that engages several powerful partners on Wall Street, including media moguls Rupert Murdock, Morton Zuckerman, Thomas Glocer, and former Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Jerry Speyer. These people are now implicated in conspiracy to advance global genocide.
The EXHIBITS cited in THE AFFIDAVIT, currently viewable online by clicking this link, proves this partnership controls biotechnology research and development globally. Health commerce internationally is also controlled virtually entirely by this trust that exercises near complete control over mainstream media to promote/propagandize its products and services for the drug cartel's organized crime. This trust, in essence, makes or breaks medical and natural healing markets, primarily through the mass media companies and propaganda it wields for social engineering and market building.
More stunning revelations from the Horowitz-Kane research include those linking Larry Silverstein, of Silverstein Properties, Inc., and the 9-11 terrorist attacks, to this drug cartel's geopolitical, economic, and population reduction activities. Mr. Silverstein, leaser of the World Trade Center who authorized to have Building-7 "pulled," suggesting detonation, is a chief suspect in the "9-11 truth" investigation. Silverstein is currently landlord and co-partner in this biotechnology trust founded by David Rockefeller and implicated by these new discoveries.
If these people can get away with killing more than 3,000 people in 8 seconds on 9-11, they are completely capable of murdering millions, even billions, of people worldwide this flu season.
Thus, I pray these revelations will prompt the FBI to investigate, obtain an injunction on the administration of H1N1 flu vaccines, and thus help us save millions of lives.
Very sincerely yours,

(NaturalNews) The mainstream media is engaged in what we Americans call "bald faced lies" about swine flu. It seems to be true with this issue more than any other, and it became apparent to me recently when a colleague of mine -- a nationally-syndicated newspaper columnist -- told me their column on natural defenses for swine flu was rejected by newspapers all across the country. Many newspapers refused to run the column and, instead, ran an ad for "free vaccine clinics" in the same space.
The media, it seems, is so deeply in bed with the culture of vaccinations that they will do almost anything to keep the public misinformed. And that includes lying about swine flu vaccines.
There are ten key lies that continue to be told by the mainstream media (MSM) about swine flu and swine flu vaccines.
Lie #1 - There are no adjuvants used in the vaccines
I was recently being interviewed by a major U.S. news network when the reporter interviewing me came up with this humdinger: There are no adjuvants being used in the swine flu vaccines, he said!
I assured him that adjuvants were, indeed, a crucial part of the vaccine recipe, and they were being widely used by drug companies to "stretch" the vaccine supply. It's no secret. But he insisted he had been directly told by a drug company rep that no adjuvants were being used at all. And he believed them! So everything being published by this large news network about swine flu vaccines now assumes there are no adjuvants in the vaccines at all.
Lie #2 - The swine flu is more dangerous than seasonal flu
This lie is finally starting to unravel. I admit that in the early days of this pandemic, even I was concerned this could be a global killer. But after observing the very mild impact the virus was having on people in the real world, it became obvious that this was a mild flu, no more dangerous than a seasonal flu.
The MSM, however, continues to promote H1N1 swine flu as being super dangerous, driving fear into the minds of people and encouraging them to rush out and get a vaccine shot for a flu that's really no more likely to kill them than the regular winter sniffles. Sure, the virus could still mutate into something far worse, but if it does that, the current vaccine could be rendered obsolete anyway!
Lie #3 - Vaccines protect you from swine flu
This is the biggest lie of all, and the media pushes it hard. Getting a vaccine, they insist, will protect you from the swine flu. But it's just flat-out false. Even if the vaccine produces antibodies, that's not the same thing as real-world immunity from a live virus, especially if the virus mutates (as they often do).
As I pointed out in a recent article, statistically speaking the average American is 40 times more likely to be struck by lightning than to have their life saved by a swine flu vaccine. (
Lie #4 - Vaccines are safe
And how would any journalists actually know this? None of the vaccines have been subjected to real-world testing for any meaningful duration. The "safety" of these vaccines is nothing more than wishful thinking.
The MSM also doesn't want you to know what's in the vaccines. Some vaccines are made from viral fragments grown in diseased African monkeys.
Lie #5 - The vaccine isn't mandatory
You hear this lie all the time: The swine flu vaccine shot is voluntary, they say. But it's not true if you're an employee at a place where vaccines are being mandated. Millions of Americans are now being told by their employers that if they don't get vaccine shots, they will be effectively fired from their jobs. It's especially true with health care workers, day care employees and school teachers.
Lie #6 - Getting a vaccine shot is a good bet on your health
In reality, a vaccine shot is far more likely to harm you than help you. According to one viral expert, the actual mortality rate of the swine flu virus is estimated to be as low as .007 percent. That means H1N1 swine flu kills less than one person in 100,000. Even if the vaccine works, let's say, 10 percent of the time, you'd have to vaccine one million people to prevent one death from swine flu.
And in vaccinating one million people, you would inevitably harm or kill several people, simply from the vaccine side effects! Your net risk of death is increased by getting a swine flu vaccine.
Lie #7 - The vaccine isn't made with "attenuated live virus"
When the swine flu vaccines were first being announced several months ago, they were described as being made with "attenuated live virus." This was directly mentioned in CDC documents, among other places.
This term apparently freaked out the American news consumer, and it has since been all but erased from any discussion about vaccines. Now, journalists will actually argue with you and insist the vaccines contain no attenuated live viruses whatsoever.
Except they're wrong. The vaccines are, indeed, made with "attenuated live viruses." That's how you make a vaccine: You take live viruses, then you weaken them ("attenuate") and inject them into people.
Lie #8 - Wash, wash, wash your hands (to avoid exposure)
This idea of washing your hands a hundred times a day is all based on the assumption that you can avoid exposure to the swine flu virus. But that's impractical. The virus is now so widespread that virtually everyone is certain to be exposed to it through the air if not other means. This whole idea of avoiding exposure to the swine flu virus is nonsense. The conversation should shift to ways to survive exposure via a healthy immune system.
Of course, hand washing is a very good idea in a hospital setting. Recent news reveals that doctors are too busy to wash their own hands, resulting in the rampant spread of superbugs throughout most large hospitals in first world nations.
Lie #9 - Children are more vulnerable to swine flu than adults
This is just a flat-out lie, but it makes for good vaccine sales. Vaccines are right now being targeted primarily to schoolchildren.
But the truth is that swine flu is extremely mild in children. "It's mildest in kids," says Dr Marc Lipsitch of Harvard University. "That's one of the really good pieces of news in this pandemic." Reuters actually had the guts to report this story, but most of the larger media outlets are still reporting that children are the most vulnerable.
Lie #10 - There is nothing else you can do beyond a vaccine and Tamiflu
This is where the media lies by omission. The mainstream media absolutely refuses to print just about any story that talks about using vitamin D, anti-viral herbs or natural remedies to protect yourself from swine flu. In the MSM, there are two options and only two: Vaccines and Tamiflu. That's it. No other options exist in their fictional reality.
Why is the mainstream media so afraid to print the truth these days? Why can't reporting on swine flu see the light of day... literally, with a mention of sunlight and vitamin D? Apparently, Big Pharma has such a tight grip on mainstream newspapers that no true story on swine flu can ever make it past the editor's desk.

The United States Department of Justice has once again made a mockery of its lofty and pretentious title.
After releasing an original and continuing disciple of death cult leader Charles Manson who attempted to shoot President Gerald Ford, an admitted Croatian terrorist, and another attempted assassin of President Ford under the mandatory 30-year parole law, the U.S. Parole Commission deemed that my release would “promote disrespect for the law.”
If only the federal government would have respected its own laws, not to mention the treaties that are, under the U.S. Constitution, the supreme law of the land, I would never have been convicted nor forced to spend more than half my life in captivity. Not to mention the fact that every law in this country was created without the consent of Native peoples and is applied unequally at our expense. If nothing else, my experience should raise serious questions about the FBI's supposed jurisdiction in Indian Country.
The parole commission's phrase was lifted from soon-to-be former U.S. Attorney Drew Wrigley, who apparently hopes to ride with the FBI cavalry into the office of North Dakota governor. In this Wrigley is following in the footsteps of William Janklow, who built his political career on his reputation as an Indian fighter, moving on up from tribal attorney (and alleged rapist of a Native minor) to state attorney general, South Dakota governor, and U.S. Congressman. Some might recall that Janklow claimed responsibility for dissuading President Clinton from pardoning me before he was convicted of manslaughter. Janklow's historical predecessor, George Armstrong Custer, similarly hoped that a glorious massacre of the Sioux would propel him to the White House, and we all know what happened to him.
Unlike the barbarians that bay for my blood in the corridors of power, however, Native people are true humanitarians who pray for our enemies. Yet we must be realistic enough to organize for our own freedom and equality as nations. We constitute 5% of the population of North Dakota and 10% of South Dakota and we could utilize that influence to promote our own power on the reservations, where our focus should be. If we organized as a voting bloc, we could defeat the entire premise of the competition between the Dakotas as to which is the most racist. In the 1970s we were forced to take up arms to affirm our right to survival and self-defense, but today the war is one of ideas. We must now stand up to armed oppression and colonization with our bodies and our minds. International law is on our side.
Given the complexion of the three recent federal parolees, it might seem that my greatest crime was being Indian. But the truth is that my gravest offense is my innocence. In Iran, political prisoners are occasionally released if they confess to the ridiculous charges on which they are dragged into court, in order to discredit and intimidate them and other like-minded citizens. The FBI and its mouthpieces have suggested the same, as did the parole commission in 1993, when it ruled that my refusal to confess was grounds for denial of parole.
To claim innocence is to suggest that the government is wrong, if not guilty itself. The American judicial system is set up so that the defendant is not punished for the crime itself, but for refusing to accept whatever plea arrangement is offered and for daring to compel the judicial system to grant the accused the right to right to rebut the charges leveled by the state in an actual trial. Such insolence is punished invariably with prosecution requests for the steepest possible sentence, if not an upward departure from sentencing guidelines that are being gradually discarded, along with the possibility of parole.
As much as non-Natives might hate Indians, we are all in the same boat. To attempt to emulate this system in tribal government is pitiful, to say the least.
It was only this year, in the Troy Davis, case, that the U.S. Supreme Court recognized innocence as a legitimate legal defense. Like the witnesses that were coerced into testifying against me, those that testified against Davis renounced their statements, yet Davis was very nearly put to death. I might have been executed myself by now, had not the government of Canada required a waiver of the death penalty as a condition of extradition.
The old order is aptly represented by Supreme Court justice Antonin Scalia, who stated in his dissenting opinion in the Davis case, “This Court has never held that the Constitution forbids the execution of a convicted defendant who has had a full and fair trial but is later able to convince a habeas court that he is 'actually' innocent. Quite to the contrary, we have repeatedly left that question unresolved, while expressing considerable doubt that any claim based on alleged 'actual innocence' is constitutionally cognizable.”
The esteemed Senator from North Dakota, Byron Dorgan, who is now the chairman of the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs, used much the same reasoning in writing that “our legal system has found Leonard Peltier guilty of the crime for which he was charged. I have reviewed the material from the trial, and I believe the verdict was fair and just.”
It is a bizarre and incomprehensible statement to Natives, as well it should be, that innocence and guilt is a mere legal status, not necessarily rooted in material fact. It is a truism that all political prisoners were convicted of the crimes for which they were charged.
The truth is the government wants me to falsely confess in order to validate a rather sloppy frame-up operation, one whose exposure would open the door to an investigation of the United States' role in training and equipping goon squads to suppress a grassroots movement on Pine Ridge against a puppet dictatorship.
In America, there can by definition be no political prisoners, only those duly judged guilty in a court of law. It is deemed too controversial to even publicly contemplate that the federal government might fabricate and suppress evidence to defeat those deemed political enemies. But it is a demonstrable fact at every stage of my case.
I am Barack Obama's political prisoner now, and I hope and pray that he will adhere to the ideals that impelled him to run for president. But as Obama himself would acknowledge, if we are expecting him to solve our problems, we missed the point of his campaign. Only by organizing in our own communities and pressuring our supposed leaders can we bring about the changes that we all so desperately need. Please support the Leonard Peltier Defense Offense Committee in our effort to hold the United States government to its own words.
I thank you all who have stood by me all these years, but to name anyone would be to exclude many more. We must never lose hope in our struggle for freedom.
In the Spirit of Crazy Horse,
Leonard Peltier

- - Jehan Abdur-Raheem on Leonard’s parole denial
“..I was crushed to read in your 8/27/09 letter that Leonard Peltier had once again been denied parole. I can’t imagine what else the government expects to extract from this situation. They’ve gone beyond ‘sucking the blood’ from this political victim; now they are sucking the marrow from his bones.
Few people can imagine the trauma of having hopes of freedom continually crushed. The hopeless and feeling of powerlessness is crushing, suffocating and defeating. It takes months to recover emotionally each time I am denied parole. I wrestle for months with anger so great, that suppressing it takes all of my mental strength, end everyday I feel drained from the effort. Each morning you look into the mirror and see a few more gray hairs and a few more wrinkles. Every morning getting out of the bunk takes more than it gives, until some days you wonder why you’re getting up at all. The same sights and smells and sounds greet you. You have no goals, because you’ve done everything can do in prison…the will to survive remains, but it’s supported by anger more than desire; tenacity, more than will. It’s an ugly feeling…and for me, defeating it is necessary, because I simply refuse to be spiritually defeated. I only hope Leonard has that same resolve, or they will kill his soul. Once the soul is dead, the body soon follows. He seems like a fighter with a warrior’s spirit inherited from his ancestors. I hope this is true, because the journey for us is a long way from being over..”

- - A Safe Substitute for Alcohol?
By David Swanson5
The U.S. Department of Justice says that alcohol plays a pivotal role in two-thirds of all cases of violence against an intimate (a spouse, boyfriend, girlfriend), and blames alcohol for contributing to 100,000 sexual assaults against young people every year. That's right, alcohol hurts more people than al Qaeda.
Of course, alcohol does not always lead every consumer of it to violence. Most people who drink alcohol don't hurt anyone. But a large percentage of those who do get violent have been drinking alcohol. Should we ban it? We tried that once with miserable results, and we've banned other substances with equally bad outcomes.
We could stop promoting alcohol so heavily, but the impact of doing so would probably not be large. What to do? Well, what if there were a substitute for alcohol that didn't make anyone violent? What if this substitute were far less dangerous than alcohol to the health of the person using it, as well as to those around him or her? What if this alternative substance even had health benefits and medicinal properties and potentials? What if this substance satisfied the desire for intoxication without actually containing anything toxic, and you woke up the next morning without a hangover? What if this magical substitute for alcohol could boost the economy, free prisoners, reduce prison budgets, free up police to address serious crimes, and subtly improve our culture if only we could discover what it was?
The common name for this life-saving drug is marijuana, and in "Marijuana Is Safer: So Why Are We Driving People to Drink?" the authors Steve Fox, Paul Armentano, and Mason Tvert argue for legalizing marijuana as a regulated substitute to reduce the societal damage done by alcohol. In the book's foreword, Norm Stamper, former Chief of the Seattle Police Department, writes:
"I've been asking police officers throughout the U.S. (and Canada) two questions. First: 'When's the last time you had to fight someone under the influence of marijuana?' (And by this I mean marijuana only, not pot plus a six-pack or fifth of tequila.) My colleagues pause; they reflect. Their eyes widen as they realize that in their five or fifteen or thirty years on the job they have never had to fight a marijuana user. I then ask, 'When's the last time you had to fight a drunk?' They look at their watches. It's telling that the booze question is answered in terms of hours, not days or weeks."
The case for making pot more available to those who might choose it over alcohol seems straightforward. Unless, of course, you've heard any of the pervasive myths that have been spread about it in this country for nearly a century. In 1927, lacking any Iraqi aluminum tubes to peddle yet, the New York Times published this fantasy:
"Mexican Family Go Insane
"Five Said to Have Been Stricken By Eating Marijuana
"A widow and her four children have been driven insane by eating the Marihuana plant, according to doctors, who say there is no hope of saving the children's lives and that the mother will be insane for the rest of her life…."
This is not terribly different from the stories promoted by our government today, and much of the book is devoted to debunking myths. While television networks are not required to give back even a smidgen of our airwaves for political campaigns or information, they have been required to air anti-pot propaganda, or to incorporate it into the plots of shows (such as "ER" and "Beverly Hills 90210"). In 2005, the Government Accountability Office determined that the government's anti-pot campaign had violated the law against covert propaganda by producing video news releases that news programs aired as if they had been created completely independently of the government.
When Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps was shown in a photograph using marijuana, both USA Swimming and the US Olympic Committee came down hard on him, just as the NFL does to its players. These are all organizations that live off massive funding from the makers of alcohol. So, incidentally, do members of Congress. It's a good thing THEY are never influenced by money.

Editor’s Notes:
In August, 1969, at a place called Eden Park in Cold Springs, NY, a friend asked me if I wanted to go with him to a concert in Bethel. This was the beginning of a big adventure, having just graduated from high school. When Richie Havens sang FREEDOM, I realized I would seek brothers and sisters and an alternative pathway for peace and harmony. One year later, after four dead in Ohio, and other students fatally shot at Jackson State, with the continuing undeclared (imperialistic) war in Southeast Asia, I could not stay in school nor join the military. I began to consider resisting the Draft, and journeyed across Canada trying to find my way, inwardly hearing verses from Joni Mitchell’s song, Woodstock: Well maybe it is just the time of year or maybe its the time of man; I don’t know who l am, but you know life is for learning. Forty years later I returned to Bethel Woods for The Heroes of Woodstock concert. Those attending were told that we can download the music for free with the code “815” for a few days. The fourth item includes more on the festival and a perspective over the last four decades.
The third item updates us on Leonard Peltier, and was updated 8/22 with his attorney's response to his parole being denied. Let Obama know what you think, and request a presidential pardon. We must maintain our efforts for truth and justice for Leonard and every innocent human being. The corrupt injustice-political-intelligence system sucks! But please don’t give up! Also take note on a human rights victory in the case of Troy Anthony Davis. Democracy Now! reported on a Supreme Court decision for an Evidentiary Hearing that could result in a new trial. The rest of the item includes more on Obama being deceitful regarding the events of September 11 and Afghanistan, Iraq, and our economy. Christopher Story writes in the latest issue of World Reports, "It’s not speculation. It’s at the detailed planning stage. Sabotage against the whole world is being officially contemplated at the highest US level, meaning the White House: and it has been under consideration there for months."
Item two is on September 11. Whereas Democracy Now! reported President Obama defending his escalation of the war in Afghanistan, DN did not respond to the false reason for why he said we were there. Recorded last Monday at the Veterans of Foreign Wars National Convention in Phoenix. President Obama said, “As I said when I announced this strategy, there will be more difficult days ahead. The insurgency in Afghanistan didn’t just happen overnight, and we won’t defeat it overnight. This will not be quick or easy. But we must never forget, this is not a war of choice, this is a war of necessity. Those who attacked America on 9/11 are plotting to do so again. If left unchecked, the Taliban insurgency will mean an even larger safe haven from which al-Qaeda would plot to kill more Americans. So this is not only a war worth fighting. This is fundamental to the defense of our people.” Meanwhile more people are being harmed by these lies everyday. Now there is proof of a higher cancer rate among World Trade Center responders. Nevertheless, New York City Coalition for Accountability Now (NYC CAN) is making progress to prove they have the required amount of voter signatures. However, the legal games of a US injustice system will likely continue. We need a continued united and individual effort in as many ways as possible. Note the major upcoming media push for 9/11 Truth from author Steve Alten, who will be one of those presenting at the “We Demand Transparency” conference. NYC. September 11-13, 2009.
Item one is more breaking news on the H1N1 (Swine) Flu and vaccine attack. This is beginning to take on a reality-and-denial comparable in scope to the betrayal of the US government-media cover-up of 9/11. The time is fast approaching, and people need to know there are alternatives to vaccinations with mercury and dangerous live H1N1 virus culture mixed in. Time is of the essence.
The last item touches upon the 10th anniversary since the incredulous NASA-Cassini Earth-flyby with all that plutonium on board that gave birth to Flyby News. This item includes the first article in the first issue of Flyby News - "Activists Stand their Ground, Even As Cassini Sails Safely Away." The post Cassini flyby era has been part of a powerful time to report independent news via the Internet for life’s survival in the 21st Century. Please help us spread this information far and wide. Truth is on our side; we must take our world back from those who have lost their way, and nurture what the essence of humanity is all about, peace, love, and the truth that sets us free.
"I'm very much in favor of the space program, but I think the use
of plutonium in space is a manifestation of organized insanity."

A SPECIAL REPORT, August, 2009
By Dr. Leonard Horowitz
[EXCERPT]
Dear Healthy World Member,
CLICK HERE to read a SPECIAL REPORT compiled by doctors, scientists, and clergy that rebuke the flu vaccination agenda as genocidal.
Dozens of people mailed me this week regarding this report and lawsuits filed to help save lives by exposing, and stopping, the advancing flu vaccine GENOCIDE advanced internationally by governments and BigPharma.
The solid evidence presented in these suits is compelling, especially the scientifically-proven toxic impact of known flu vaccine ingredients (including mercury, aluminum, squalene, auto-immunogenic foreign proteins, and carcinogenic genetic materials).
When you think about this sudden onslaught of litigation, you have to wonder why there has not been more collaboration in this direction years ago.
The main answer lies with one piece of legislation, advanced by mostly one woman, Barbara Loe Fisher, chief of "Controlled Opposition" for BigPharma, undermining litigations for vaccine injury compensation through the National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC) sponsored National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986.
Nearly everyone believes this Congressional Act was "a good thing." In fact, this action was a covert operation that tied the hands of families and compensation attorneys making it nearly impossible to effectively sue drug companies. BigPharma became indemnified against such litigation because of the Act. In essence, this act gave free license to kill and maim people via vaccines to drug industrialists under the guise of "grassroots" legislation.
It is bizarre that few people realize we are dealing with state sponsored, consumer supported, GENOCIDE. This "politically incorrect" "G-word," is defined as the "mass killing, or enslaving, of people for profit, politics, and/or ideology." So far, vaccine injury activists have feared using this word because those who do are labelled as "radicals" and censored.
I am a classic example of this betrayal. For the past fifteen years I have been censored and slandered by so-called "anti-vaccination" leaders allied with NVIC president, Barbara Loe Fisher, who considers me "radical," because I dared herald this truth. Now a few leaders in the anti-vaccination movement have finally begun to use this "G-word" to describe what is actually happening.
Even more liberating, . . . litigation against GENOCIDE demands use of the single federal law that condemns this criminal manipulation of our population as you'll read below. . . .
ADVANCING LAWSUITS
Recently, physician attorney Mayer Eisenstein, a student of the Dr. Robert Mendelson, the first doctor to use this term, "iatrogenocide" to describe medical mass murder, told me "Len, in the last few months you have been vindicated. No one can call you 'radical,' anymore!" Then, he celebrated with me zero cases of autism in his 20,000 family pediatric practice because he condemns vaccination as "medical malpractice."
A few years ago a study of Amish families showed autism rates much like Dr. Eisenstein demonstrates in his practice. Anyone with any common sense would compare these two scientific cohorts against vaccinated populations of children to evidence GENOCIDE that federal officials conservatively estimate strikes 1-in-150 families. (More recent reports put the rate of vaccine-induced mercury-related autistic spectrum disorder at around 1-in-65 families.)
With the flu vaccines advancing a related genocidal depopulation agenda, the most correct American statute to apply here is US Code Title 18, Crimes and Criminal Procedure, Chapter 50A, Section 1091. Genocide. This direction comes to us from veteran US Constitutional attorney, Larry Becraft. Attorney Becraft's justified concern is that we put our best foot forward and not have pro se plaintiffs who know too little about law and set legal precedents that are unjustified by the evidence of genocide before us.
A correctly crafted lawsuit "can be important, if put together correctly. . . . No federal law exists that even remotely pretends to claim authority to administer some compulsory vaccination program in the States. . . . The legal authority to do all this exists in the States. While they may take cues from Uncle Sam and the WHO, the States are the ultimate authority regarding this issue," attorney Becraft counsels. "Lawsuits seeking temporary restraining orders (TROs) and preliminary injunctions need to be supported by valid, sworn evidence, and not rumors, hearsay, and information pulled from the Net, all of which is inadmissible."
Thus, this SPECIAL LITIGATION REPORT is being sent to you with LOVE from yours truly, along with my colleague Dr. Gabriel Cousins, who with dozens of concerned collaborators contributed so that: 1) you do not do anything stupid, like rushing to your medical deity (MD) or "Safeway" supermarket to get a deadly shot of flu bioweapons; and 2) have the basic information to advance successful litigation and grassroots activism against government genocidalists.
CLICK HERE TO LEARN WHAT WORLD LEADING DOCTORS, SCIENCE EXPERTS, AND RELIGIOUS LEADERS HAVE COMPILED TO REBUKE THE FLU VACCINE GENOCIDE OF 2009.
ONE SENTENCE SUMMARY:
"The overwhelming scientific studies and research do not in any way support the action of mandatory flu, squalene adjuvant, live virus vaccination; to do so might result in the desecration of a significant amount of God’s creation of humanity on planet earth; the science strongly suggests that mandatory vaccinations are both immoral and ethically illegal (ethics that are core in the Judaic-Christian system) and this mandatory vaccination violates the basic Ten Commandments in at least 6 ways: Thou shall not murder, steal, lie, bear false witness, engage in idol worship (money and power), envy or covet."

I am thrilled to announce the availability of a new product in humanity's arsenal against medical madness and the flu fright---OxySilver Professional--the most advanced silver hydrosol ever developed for routine health professional use as an IV broad- spectrum antimicrobial in selected patients.
You have probably heard that dining with sterling silverware prevents infectious diseases since you swallow some silver while eating. You likely heard colloidal silvers made inexpensively are reliable for protection against various biological attacks, even though these are not encouraged for daily use due to skin discolorations from the silver. You heard from me about the new generation of nano-sized silver hydrosols and the mountain of scientific evidence proving silver hydrosol safety and efficacy against nearly every pathogen associated with infectious diseases. In an earlier archived Newsletter from HealthWorldStore.com I explained why OxySilver is the most powerful of all silver hydrosols because: 1) its nano-sized silver is actually bonded to the oxygen in water, so it goes intracellular, does its job, and leaves the body rapidly; 2) OxySilver oxygenates tissues AND electrocutes all pathogens causing a powerful germicidal detoxification reaction freeing the immune system to function optimally; and 3) vibrates at 528Hz frequency bringing every cell in your body into Divine harmony, that is, LOVE. So regular OxySilver transmits a powerful prayer that sources from your heart for dramatic immediate relief from what ails you, (i.e., healing).
OXYSILVER PROFESSIONAL is available for use by health professionals exclusively for intravenous use in urgent cases. It is even more concentrated that regular OxySilver, and complies with the FDA (Federal Drug Addictors) requirements for "safety."
In other words, with the coming flu, there are going to be people everywhere crashing and dying from vaccination intoxications "fast-tracked" through the FDA. People's immune systems are going to need serious help dealing with not only flu viruses, but heavy metal poisoning, chemical intoxications, and secondary and tertiary infections that antibiotics will be incapable of treating safely and effectively.
Remember to Breathe, Breathe, and Breathe . . . .
Have you been practicing what I've preached? Are you getting into the habit of opening your chest and loving heart, throwing your shoulders back, and standing tall? This is just another simple reminder.
Much 528 in the aloha Spirit,
Dr. Leonard Horowitz, Managing Member

- - Swine Flu Vaccine Linked to Paralysis, Leaked Memo Reveals
By Mike Adams - Published by NaturalNews
(NaturalNews) A warning letter about the swine flu vaccine was leaked to the DailyMail over the weekend. Written by Professor Elizabeth Miller, head of the Health Protection Agency's Immunization Department, it warns neurologists that the influenza vaccine of 1976 was linked to a devastating neurological condition called Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS). "The vaccines used to combat an expected swine influenza pandemic in 1976 were shown to be associated with GBS and were withdrawn from use," says the July 29 letter.
GBS can cause paralysis and death. One woman mentioned in the DailyMail story -- Hilary Wilkinson -- was stricken with GBS and had to be fed through a drip while needing a tracheotomy just to breathe. It took her three months in the hospital to learn how to walk and talk again. On the topic of the swine flu vaccine, she says today, "It makes me feel wary that the Government is rolling out this vaccine without any clear idea of the GBS risk, if any. I wouldn't wish it on anyone... I'm frightened to have the swine flu vaccine if this might happen again -- it's a frightening illness and I think more research needs to be done on the effect of the vaccine."
An 800 percent increase in GBS risk
A second letter has also surfaced with a warning about the swine flu vaccine. It's from the Association of British Neurologists and is authored by Dr. Rustam Al-Shahi Salman and Professor Patrick Chinnery. It says "Following the 1976 program of vaccination against swine influenza in the US, a retrospective study found a possible eight-fold increase in the incidence of GBS."

- - Revolt against mass swine flu vaccination accelerates (UK)
Paul Joseph Watson
PrisonPlanet.com
Tuesday, August 18, 2009
The nationwide revolt against government plans to implement a mass swine flu vaccination program in the United Kingdom has picked up steam, with a poll revealing that a third of NHS nurses will refuse to take the shot.
Despite nurses and frontline health workers being the primary target group to take the vaccine, just 37 per cent of them said they would take the swine flu vaccine in a survey conducted by Nursing Times magazine. 30 per cent said they would not be immunized and 33 per cent said they were unsure.
Of the 30 per cent who said they would refuse to be vaccinated, 60 per cent said the reason was due to fears about the safety of the vaccine, following revelations that the shots will contain mercury and squalene and have also been linked with the killer nerve disease Guillain-Barre Syndrome. Another 31 per cent said they would refuse the vaccine because they did not consider the risk from swine flu to be great enough.
The government responded to the poll by claiming that nurses have a duty not to infect their patients and urged them to take the vaccine, but it seems that many fear the health consequences of taking the vaccine will be worse than catching the virus itself.
Interestingly, a London Times article on the story reveals that fewer than one in seven nurses in the UK receives the annual flu shot, highlighting the fact that health workers, who would be in a position to be well educated on the issue, are already fully aware of the dangers associated with vaccines in general.
The swine flu vaccine is being rushed through safety procedures while the government has provided pharmaceutical companies with blanket immunity from lawsuits arriving out of the vaccine causing deaths and injuries.
It was previously revealed that some batches of the vaccine will contain mercury, a toxin linked with autism and neurological disorders. The vaccine will also contain the dangerous ingredient squalene, which has been directly linked with cases of Gulf War Syndrome and a host of other debilitating diseases.
It was also recently reported that the UK government sent a confidential letter to senior neurologists telling them to be on the alert for cases of a brain disorder called Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS), which could be triggered by the vaccine.
Following the leak of the letter a senior neurologist told the Daily Mail, “I would not have the swine flu jab because of the GBS risk.”
The last attempt to mass vaccinate the public against swine flu, during the 1976 outbreak in the United States, killed more people than the virus itself.
The vast majority of respondents to the London Times article about the nurses’ refusal to take the shot commented that they too would refuse to take the vaccine, mirroring sentiment across the country.
At this stage only a deadlier return of the virus backed by a massive government fearmongering campaign is going to make anything like a majority of the population take the swine flu shot.
Since the majority of the population will refuse to take the vaccine, the government’s only option will be to institute a mandatory program backed by force, or to drop plans for mass vaccination altogether.

- - Swine flu mass graves planned for London
In These Times
The London Paper
19th August, 2009
SWINE FLU victims could be buried in mass graves during a second wave of the virus, which is expected to hit London this autumn.
A Home Office document shows a plan for “a grave that is for a number of unrelated persons, excavated mechanically in advance and designed for efficient preparation and use” creating “a burial site for multiple graves and consecutive burials”
A spokesman today said the plans were “possibilities, not certainties”, but said swine flu victims nationwide could be interred in mass graves if necessary.
Planners say the multiple person burial plots are a “worst case scenario” tactic if the Government is forced to activate emergency plans to take over from local authorities struggling to deal with large numbers of interments.

- - Loose Change 9/11: An American Coup
“Loose Change 9/11: An American Coup” is the fourth in a series of films on 9/11 made by Dylan Avery and dubbed an “Internet blockbuster.” The films and evidence have evolved over the years. This latest version provides greater historical context, damning eyewitness testimony to the explosions that took place in World Trade Center 7 on the morning of September 11, and the latest details about the discovery of unexploded military grade thermate in the dust by physicist Steven E. Jones.
Dramatically narrated by Daniel Sunjata of FX’s Rescue Me, and an outspoken advocate for the First Responders, Loose Change 9/11: An American Coup first examines mysterious and infamous events that reshaped world history – from the Reichstag Fire in 1933 that catapulted Hitler to dictatorship – to the Gulf of Tonkin Incident in 1964 that led to the Vietnam War, and then takes viewers on a turbulent journey through several pivotal moments in history before delving into the most significant catastrophe in recent memory, 9/11.
Loaded with powerful, new footage and in-depth interviews with the likes of Steven Earl Jones, an American physicist who has discovered undetonated explosive material in multiple samples of dust from the World Trade Center collapses, this documentary presents a wide array of evidence both known and unknown…until now. Eight years later, the American people continue to live in the aftermath of 9/11 and deal with its ongoing repercussions. Is this just another machination of power on the timeline of history? If so, the real question is what happens next? Or better yet, what can we do to prevent another 9/11?
The film serves as a fundamental call to action which is fueled by hope that those affected by 9/11 will soon receive the answers that they have sought after for nearly a decade.
The answers will reveal themselves on 9-22-9.

Daniel Sunjata
Narrator
Daniel Sunjata is a Tony Award-nominated American actor whose career spans television, the silver screen, and the stage – both on Broadway and in real life as an activist.
Sunjata played the role of a sailor on shore leave on the first post-9/11 themed episode of Sex and The City. He has portrayed Langston Hughes in the film Brother to Brother and James Holt, a fictitious fashion designer in The Devil Wears Prada. He currently stars as Franco on the television program Rescue Me. During the summer of 2007, he also starred in the ESPN miniseries The Bronx is Burning as Reggie Jackson.
In 2003, he won a Theatre World Award for his breakout Broadway performance as a gay Major League Baseball player who comes out to the public in Take Me Out, the Tony award-winning play, which also earned him nominations for a Tony Award and Drama Desk Award.
He is an outspoken and active skeptic of the US government’s “officially recognized” role in the 9/11 terrorist attacks and weaves this belief in personal as well as character-based appearances.
On September 7, 2007, Sunjata gave a speech at a 9/11 event sponsored by We Are Change (WAC) – a citizens based grassroots peace and social justice movement working to reveal the truth behind the events of September 11th – at Webster Hall in New York City. On September 12, 2008, Sunjata spoke once again at a WAC fundraiser in NYC to benefit 9/11’s heroes; the many sick and dying first responders who were told by the EPA that the air at ground zero was safe to breathe. On September 27, 2007, Sunjata was honored at The Latin Pride Awards (held in Boston, MA) with a special recognition titled “Voice of the Millions” which is given to people who use their power and public visibility to speak out on behalf of those who cannot speak for themselves. In this case, the award was given for his advocacy of truth and justice in regard to the call for a new and independent investigation into the 9/11 attacks, and for his representation of the Latino community on Rescue Me as fire-fighter Franco Rivera.
In the 5th season of Rescue Me (2009) a “9/11 Truth” subplot is focused through the character of Franco Rivera (played by Sunjata) who stirs up controversy in the firehouse when he announces to a journalist that he firmly believes 9/11 was an inside job.
Sunjata grew up in Chicago, the adopted son of a police dispatcher and a civil rights worker. He graduated from Mount Carmel High School in Chicago, where he played center for two state championship football teams. He completed his undergraduate studies at Florida A&M University and the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. He then received his master’s degree in fine arts from the Tisch School of the Arts of New York University.

- - Demolition Access To The WTC Towers: Part Two - Security
Kevin R. Ryan
Who could have placed explosives in the World Trade Center (WTC) towers? This is the second essay in a series that attempts to answer that question. The first installment began by considering the tenants that occupied the impact zones and the other floors that might have played a useful role in the demolition of the WTC towers. [1] The result was a picture of connections to organizations that had access to explosive materials and to the expertise required to use explosives. Additionally it was seen that, in the years preceding 9/11, the impact zone tenants had all made structural modifications to the areas where the airliners struck the buildings.

FDNY widow pushes Congress to pass 9/11 health bill
August 12, 2009 By MICHAEL FRAZIER michael.frazier@newsday.com
The widow of a New York firefighter, who recently died of cancer he believed was caused from exposures to toxins at Ground Zero, urged Congress Wednesday to bring a 9/11 health bill to a vote.
“The federal government should be taking care of these people," said Jennifer McNamara, whose husband, John, died Sunday. "Even on his deathbed, he made us promise that we would make sure that other people were taken care of.”
John McNamara, 44, of Blue Point, was a 10-year veteran and long fought for health benefits for fellow rescue workers.
McNamara worked about 500 hours at Ground Zero after the 2001 attacks. He was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2006. He believed his exposure to toxins at Ground Zero caused his illness.
His wife joined Rep. Tim Bishop (D-Southampton) and John Feal, founder of the FealGood Foundation, at Bishop's Coram office Wednesday. "Jennifer, quite selflessly, wants to use the tragic and untimely death as an opportunity to raise consciousness, raise awareness for this bill," Bishop said.
McNamara spent the last few years of his life joining Feal, a first-responder advocate, to promote the James Zadroga Health and Compensation Act legislation proposed in Congress.
The bill, which would provide testing and medical treatment to thousands sickened with 9/11-related illnesses, was named for a New York police officer who died of lung and brain damage after working at the World Trade Center site. Bill advocates want the federal government to cover 9/11-related health costs to avoid having those sickened to be burdened by health care bills. Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-Manhattan) introduced the bill in February. Since then, it has been working its way through legislative committees and has yet to make it to the House for a vote.
“My husband would think that it’s shameful, absolutely shameful” that legislators are dragging their feet, McNamara said. She then turned to the final moments she shared with her husband at Brookhaven Memorial Hospital Medical Center.
She said he was a fighter to the end. “I told him that he needed to go and [if] he was tired of fighting, he could stop,” she said. "He kept shaking his head 'no.' He was never gonna stop."
A short while later, Jennifer McNamara watched the heart monitor display a flat line.
In addition to his wife, McNamara is survived by his son, Jack, 2. His funeral is planned for 10 a.m. Friday at St. Patrick's Cathedral in Manhattan.

By Donald Meserlian, P.E.
The "9/11 Truth Proclamation" should be read by every citizen so pressure can be put on public officials who have lied and covered up the truth that controlled demolitions, not fired, caused the collapse of the twin towers.
No government employee is willing to enforce the federal law that requires an investigation when evidence of treason is presented. The N.Y state and N.Y U.S. attorneys have both violated this federal law. Only a mass action by many citizens will force these bastards to obey the law and convene a grand jury investigation.

- - Major media push for 9/11 Truth from author Steve Alten
In 3 weeks, the mass market paperback (heavily revised edition) of The Shell Game will debut nationwide. We are in contact with major TV producers for appearances. The aim is to use this $8.99 paperback to expose the lies of 911 to the masses who might otherwise scuff and turn away...leveraging the 8th anniversary to push for a real investigation. In rewriting the book (to fit an Obama Adminstation in power when the next false flag event strikes) I added 25 of the top 40 reasons for a new investigation from 911Truth.org on the between chapters quote pages.
When The SHELL GAME hits top 10 NY Times best seller status, a chain event will take place, causing nationwide buy-ins in supermarkets, drugstores, etc., while creating huge interview opportunities for experts like Dr. Jones and Richard Gage, etc. Unlike the hardback, it will be a lot easier to get support for an $8.99 paperback. And this version is no-holds barred, I name names and contacts.
My publisher wants to start the ball rolling by sending 9/11 leaders free copies of the new paperback. Could you please help us by e-mailing me names and addresses of everyone you feel could help (including the names on the dedication below.) I know I left some important people out...and can add new names on the second editions.
[You can request by email] a one-sheet promo that booksellers are receiving. Feel free to use this to spread the word.
Steve Alten will be speaking at the 9/11 event in NYC and hope to finally meet you in person.
PLEASE FORWARD TO THE RIGHT PEOPLE.
Many thanks,

Fwd. From: contact@whoisleonardpeltier.info
Subject: Eric Seitz ~ Leonard Peltier Attorney ~ Response on Parole Denial
Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2009 15:42:17 -0700 (PDT)
The Bush Administration holdovers on the U.S. Parole Commission today adopted the position of the FBI that anyone who may be implicated in the killings of its agents should never be paroled and should be left to die in prison. Despite judicial determinations that the unrepentant FBI fabricated evidence and presented perjured testimony in Leonard Peltier's prosecution; despite a jury's acquittal on grounds of self-defense of two co-defendants who were found to have engaged in the same conduct of which Mr. Peltier was convicted; despite Mr. Peltier's exemplary record during his incarceration for more than 33 years and his clearly demonstrated eligibility for parole; despite letters and petitions calling for his release submitted by millions of people in this country and around the world including one of the judges who ruled on his earlier appeals; and despite his advanced age and deteriorating health, the Parole Commission today informed Mr. Peltier that his "r elease on parole would depreciate the seriousness of your offenses and would promote disrespect for the law," and set a reconsideration hearing in July 2024. This is the extreme action of the same law enforcement community that brought us the indefinite imprisonment of suspected teenage terrorists, tortures, and killings in CIA prisons around the world and promoted widespread disrespect for the democratic concepts of justice upon which this country supposedly was founded. These are the same institutions that have never treated indiginous peoples with dignity or respect or accepted any responsibility for centuries of intolerence and abuse. At his parole hearing on July 28th Leonard Peltier expressed regret and accepted responsibility for his role in the incident in which the two FBI agents and one Native American activist died as the result of a shootout on the Pine Ridge Reservation. Mr. Peltier emphasized that the shootout occurred in circumstances where there literally was a war going on between corrupt tribal leaders, supported by the government, on the one hand, and Native American traditionalists and young activists on the other. He again denied -- as he as always denied -- that he intended the deaths of anyone or that he fired the fatal shots that killed the two agents, and he reminded the hearing officer that one of his former co-defendants recently admitted to having fired the fatal shots, himself. Accordingly, it is not true that Leonard Peltier participated in "the execution style murders of two FBI agents," as the Parole Commission asserts, and there never has been credible evidence of Mr. Peltier's responsibility for the fatal shots as the FBI continues to allege. Moreover, given the corrupt practices of the FBI, itself, it is entirely untrue that Leonard Peltier's parole at this juncture will in any way "depreciate the seriousness" of his conduct and/or "promote disrespect for the law." We will continue to seek parole and clemency for Mr. Peltier and to eventually bring this prolonged injustice to a prompt and fair resolution.
Take Action! -
"..We know you’ve written letters, made calls, sent e-mails. First, thank you. Thank you very much for all you do on Leonard’s behalf.
But now you have to do it again. And again. And again. Please. Do it and keeping doing it until Leonard Peltier is home with his family.

- - Supreme Court Orders Evidentiary Hearing for Death Row Prisoner
Troy Anthony Davis; Rare Decision Could Result in New Trial
The Supreme Court has taken the rare step of ordering a new hearing for Georgia death row prisoner Troy Anthony Davis. The nation’s highest court ordered a federal district court in Georgia to “receive testimony and make findings of fact as to whether evidence that could not have been obtained at the time of trial clearly establishes his innocence.” Davis was convicted for the 1989 killing of a white police officer. Since then, seven of the nine non-police witnesses have recanted their testimony, and there is no physical evidence tying him to the crime scene. In a Democracy Now! special, we hear from Davis, speaking from death row; Davis’s fifteen-year-old nephew Antone, and his sister Martina Correia, who have led the campaign to exonerate him; Laura Moye of Amnesty International USA; and Ezekiel Edwards, a staff attorney at the Innocence Project.

- - Honduras: Military Coup Engineered By Two US Companies?
By John Perkins
August 07, 2009 "Information Clearing House" -- I recently visited Central America. Everyone I talked with there was convinced that the military coup that had overthrown the democratically-elected president of Honduras, Manuel Zelaya, had been engineered by two US companies, with CIA support. And that the US and its new president were not standing up for democracy.
Earlier in the year Chiquita Brands International Inc. (formerly United Fruit) and Dole Food Co had severely criticized Zelaya for advocating an increase of 60% in Honduras’s minimum wage, claiming that the policy would cut into corporate profits. They were joined by a coalition of textile manufacturers and exporters, companies that rely on cheap labor to work in their sweatshops.
Memories are short in the US, but not in Central America. I kept hearing people who claimed that it was a matter of record that Chiquita (United Fruit) and the CIA had toppled Guatemala’s democratically-elected president Jacobo Arbenz in 1954 and that International Telephone & Telegraph (ITT), Henry Kissinger, and the CIA had brought down Chile’s Salvador Allende in 1973. These people were certain that Haiti’s president Jean-Bertrand Aristide had been ousted by the CIA in 2004 because he proposed a minimum wage increase, like Zelaya’s.
I was told by a Panamanian bank vice president, “Every multinational knows that if Honduras raises its hourly rate, the rest of Latin America and the Caribbean will have to follow. Haiti and Honduras have always set the bottom line for minimum wages. The big companies are determined to stop what they call a ‘leftist revolt’ in this hemisphere. In throwing out Zelaya they are sending frightening messages to all the other presidents who are trying to raise the living standards of their people.”
It did not take much imagination to envision the turmoil sweeping through every Latin American capital. There had been a collective sign of relief at Barack Obama’s election in the U.S., a sense of hope that the empire in the North would finally exhibit compassion toward its southern neighbors, that the unfair trade agreements, privatizations, draconian IMF Structural Adjustment Programs, and threats of military intervention would slow down and perhaps even fade away. Now, that optimism was turning sour.
The cozy relationship between Honduras’s military coup leaders and the corporatocracy were confirmed a couple of days after my arrival in Panama. England’s The Guardian ran an article announcing that “two of the Honduran coup government's top advisers have close ties to the US secretary of state. One is Lanny Davis, an influential lobbyist who was a personal lawyer for President Bill Clinton and also campaigned for Hillary. . . The other hired gun for the coup government that has deep Clinton ties is (lobbyist) Bennett Ratcliff.” (1)
DemocracyNow! broke the news that Chiquita was represented by a powerful Washington law firm, Covington & Burling LLP, and its consultant, McLarty Associates (2). President Obama’s Attorney General Eric Holder had been a Covington partner and a defender of Chiquita when the company was accused of hiring “assassination squads” in Colombia (Chiquita was found guilty, admitting that it had paid organizations listed by the US government as terrorist groups “for protection” and agreeing in 2004 to a $25 million fine). (3) George W. Bush’s UN Ambassador, John Bolton, a former Covington lawyer, had fiercely opposed Latin American leaders who fought for their peoples’ rights to larger shares of the profits derived from their resources; after leaving the government in 2006, Bolton became involved with the
Project for the New American Century, the Council for National Policy, and a number of other programs that promote corporate hegemony in Honduras and elsewhere.
McLarty Vice Chairman John Negroponte was U.S. Ambassador to Honduras from 1981-1985, former Deputy Secretary of State, Director of National Intelligence, and U.S. Representative to the United Nations; he played a major role in the U.S.-backed Contra’s secret war against Nicaragua’s Sandinista government and has consistently opposed the policies of the democratically-elected pro-reform Latin American presidents. (4) These three men symbolize the insidious power of the corporatocracy, its bipartisan composition, and the fact that the Obama Administration has been sucked in.
The Los Angeles Times went to the heart of this matter when it concluded:
What happened in Honduras is a classic Latin American coup in another sense: Gen. Romeo Vasquez, who led it, is an alumnus of the United States' School of the Americas (renamed the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation). The school is best known for producing Latin American officers who have committed major human rights abuses, including military coups. (5)
All of this leads us once again to the inevitable conclusion: you and I must change the system. The president – whether Democrat or Republican – needs us to speak out.
Chiquita, Dole and all your representatives need to hear from you. Zelaya must be reinstated.

- - Concocting the Appearance of Recovery - Spinning the Economic News
By Paul Craig Roberts
Published on August 12, 2009 By CounterPunch
Last Friday a Bloomberg.com headline read: “U.S. Stocks Gain, Treasuries Drop as Unemployment Rate Declines”.
Let’s have a look at the reported decline in the rate of unemployment. Do you believe that the US auto industry added 28,000 jobs in July amidst GM bankruptcy, sell-off and close-down of GM auto divisions, and demise of GM suppliers? No? Well, that’s what the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported.
The 28,000 new jobs were created by “seasonal adjustments.” July is a month when jobs are automatically added by the BLS to seasonally smooth the layoffs of auto workers during July’s retooling for the new model year. This year most of the retooling did not occur, yet the annual seasonal adjustments did. Adjustments are also made for supporting industries, which are partially idled while auto production halts for retooling.
More phantom jobs were created by the “Birth-Death Model.” The payroll jobs data contains guesses about the numbers of new startup company hires and jobs lost from business failures. Failed businesses don’t report the lost jobs (deaths), and new jobs from startups (births) are not captured in the reporting. The government estimates these numbers, but the estimates are based mainly on growth periods, not on recessionary times. Consequently, during economic downturns, the estimates from the Birth-Death Model overestimate the number of new startup jobs and underestimate the job loss.
The employment outlook was further improved by pushing another cadre of workers, who have been unemployed for too long, off the unemployment rolls. Remember that the long-term discouraged (people out of work for more than one year) are not counted as being in the work force. The length of the current downturn means that short-term discouraged workers, who are counted among the unemployed, are now moving into the long-term discouraged category, which simply erases their existence and lowers the measured rate of unemployment.
All sorts of distortions can find their way into the official statistics. For example, industrial production estimates are based on electricity consumption. Unusually hot weather, which causes a jump in air conditioning use, appears in the statistics as an increase in industrial output. Cool weather spells during summer reduces electricity use and results in a phantom drop in industrial output.
Nominal retail sales figures can increase from an uptick in inflation.
An increase in real GDP can be the result of underestimating inflation.
Other distortions come from the year to year comparisons. As time passes, new comparisons are no longer with previous peaks, but with more recent lows. Thus, reported declines are less severe than previously, which makes things sound better when they aren’t.
By spinning the financial news, the appearance of recovery is created, and this lures people back into the stock and real estate markets where they can lose the remainder of their wealth.

- - Devaluation Swindle To Save Themselves - And Profit
By Christopher Story
[EXCERPT]
That a further stupendous collapse of ‘toxic’ derivatives is imminent, with severe implications for a number of large banks, has likewise been confirmed by our sources, in the context of a realisation that the Treasury is about to discover that nobody at home or abroad, is going to remain prepared to purchase its ‘Trashets’ as the banking sector sags under the dead weight of derivatives fraud. We did anticipate such a developments several months ago, and we indicated that this would occur in the third quarter of 2009 – a prediction that is being proved correct.
Specifically, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) shut down Colonial Bank, based in Alabama and Florida, which had $25 billion in ‘assets’, on 14th August, switching that bank’s 346 branches to the North Carolina bank BB&T. The failed bank, which acknowledged in July that there was 'substantial doubt' that it could survive as an independent business, admitted a few days prior to its enforced closure that it was under investigation for mortgage fraud, and also that a separate investigation was ongoing into its accounting practices in connection with an application for funds from the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP).
Colonial Bank’s offices, and those of Taylor, Bean & Whitaker, another US mortgage lender, were raided by Federal agents two weeks earlier. Four other banks also failed on 14th August, including Community Bank of Nevada, Las Vegas, two smaller institutions in Arizona, and one in Pittsburgh. On 16th August, it was reported to us that five large US banks were expected to fail at any moment, delivering another body blow to the Geithner Treasury’s crass and failing attempt to re-start the collapsed derivatives sector.
And against this background, the compromised Mrs Clinton, who has ‘rolled over’ on the Bushites and other criminal names, and is therefore temporarily ‘protected’ by her questionable ‘immunity’ for the time being, is now being intensively questioned by forces pressing home the Rule of Law, headed by the New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo, to fill out gaps in their investigations into the criminal records of many of the high-level crooks we have exposed in these reports – Dr Alan Greenspan; the former US Treasury Secretary, Henry M. Paulson; the former Department of Homeland Security chief, Michael Chertoff; former Clinton-era Treasury Secretary and guardian of the Clintons’ ill-gotten funds at Citibank, Robert Rubin; the current US Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner (because the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is under investigation); the New York Fed’s Stephen Friedman; and other US criminal operatives fingered in these reports and by other observers. Among thefts being investigated are illegal transactions by Chinese Ming crooks and US Treasury collaborators of both US and Chinese sovereign funds, we understand.
Given such pressures (of which the foregoing list is merely a brief current sample), the diabolical devaluation sabotage swindle that is being planned can be interpreted as a desperate stratagem comparable to a planned jail break by cornered prisoners – a Houdini ‘escape’ plan that w ill make the plight of the perpetrators far worse than it already is, because of faulty execution.

4) Forty years past Woodstock
By Jerry Mazza
Online Journal Associate Editor
Aug 13, 2009, 00:20
I’ll bet you forgot all about it. How a half million kids came together on a 600-acre dairy farm in rural Bethel, New York. Woodstock, the concert lasted from August 15 to 17, 1969, southwest of the town of Woodstock, New York, in Ulster County. And somehow it managed to change our world as well as the history of rock and roll as listed by Rolling Stone.
What’s most impressive is that despite all the reports of rampant drug-taking, 20-mile traffic jams, not enough Porta Johns, and too much rain, the music brought a lack of violence and, more importantly, the kids took incredibly good care of themselves. Two deaths out of 500,000 people were reported, one by heroin overdose, the other of someone all covered up in a sleeping bag in a field, run over by a tractor that didn’t see him. But then, there were two births, amen.
Even though Bob Dylan (a local recluse resident at the time) skipped Woodstock to do a concert on the Isle of Wight, Joan Baez, Arlo Guthrie, Tim Hardin, Ravi Shankar, Richie Havens, Sly and the Family Stone, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Jefferson Airplane, The Who, The Grateful Dead, Blood, Sweat and Tears, Crosby, Stills & Nash (&Young), Santana, Jeff Beck Group, The Band, Johnny Winter, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Joe Cocker, Sha-Na-Na, John Sebastian, Country Joe and the Fish, 32 acts in all, showed up to rock the countryside if not the world.
The political performers included antiwar protestors, black militants, pro-gay and lesbian groups, pro-drug heads, anti-government groups and all of their redneck, out front, and infiltrator antitheses, in every conceivable form of array and disarray.
The whole wild and crazy event was captured in the Academy Award winning 1970 documentary Woodstock, commemorating the event.
Joni Mitchell’s song Woodstock became a major hit for Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. Also, Woodstock: Music from the Original Soundtrack and More, became a three-LP album, later a two disc CD. Woodstock 2 was released as a 2 LP album. A third album, Woodstock Diary was released in 1994. Atlantic gave us a four CD-box set titled Woodstock: Three Days of Peace and Music, which just about sums it all up. Peace and music.
Now mind you this came after we were a half-dozen years into Vietnam, after the apocryphal year of 1968, the Nobel Peace-Prize Winner Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy’s slayings, the Chicago Police riot at the Democratic Convention that handed its promised ballots not to the peace-maker Eugene McCarthy but to the Lyndon Johnson doughboy Hubert Humphrey.
1968 was also the year Danny the Red shut down France with a General Workers Strike. It came with the massacres at Hue and Mylai, Nam casualties passing 30,000, CIA Director William Colby’s Phoenix Program that killed between 20,000 and 60,000 dissidents. That was the year that the Beatles took off for more meditation with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and came up with Hey Jude and Revolution. That was the year that civil rights mushroomed not just here but in Northern Ireland.
Also, it was the year Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara tiptoed out of office after he ordered the DOD to start a secret study of US decision making on Vietnam since the end of the Second World War. The study, completed in 1969, was known as the Pentagon Papers, 47, volumes, 3,000 pages of narrative history, 4,000 pages of corroborating documents. Of the 15 copies passed out, one went to the RAND Corporation, a major military contractor.
A high-ranking civilian employee named Daniel Ellsberg, who worked in Nam from 64 to 67, felt the war was wrong and the government had not been straight with the public about it. He copied the study and leaked most of it to Neil Sheehan, a New York Times reporter who’d also been to Nam. The first installment of the condemning document appeared on June 13, 1971, in The Times, including the misdeeds, deception, and tragedy of it all.
Twenty-four years later, in April 1995, McNamara, on the first page of his book, In Retrospect: The Tragedy and Lessons of Vietnam, wrote, “It is estimated that something on the order of 3.8 million Vietnamese (North and South, military and civilian) were killed. The United States lost 58,000. Had the United States lost in proportion to its population the same percentage as Vietnam, 27 million Americans would have died.” Sound like Iraq? Afghanistan?
But the descendents of McNamara and his cohorts, who were so full of passionate intensity at the time, are still around, with new wars, new weapons and new payloads of death, destruction and blight. We find them today, after destroying Iraq now busy pouring into Afghanistan and Pakistan once again after their own and everyone else’s destruction.

5) Activists Stand their Ground, Even As Cassini Sails Safely Away
- - Space Weapons, Airborne Lasers: Reagan's Star Wars Realized
- - Ten Years of Independent Flyby News
- - Activists Stand their Ground, Even As Cassini Sails Safely Away
By Daniel Sorid, Staff Writer - SPACE.COM
Aug 18 1999 16:02:21 ET
They saw it as a ball of poison.
Across the world, they yelled and held up banners to protest its flyby of Earth.
They said the craft, careening through space at 42,000 miles per hour, had a good chance of slapping into the Earth's atmosphere and spreading dangerous radiation throughout the planet.
In protests, on Web sites, in papers, and in speeches, they claimed that thousands, even millions, could die.
No one did.
On early Wednesday morning the Cassini probe, carrying 72 pounds of radioactive fuel, whizzed by Earth -- without incident -- on its way to Saturn.
But as long as there's been a Cassini, there have been vocal anti-Cassini activists. For two years, they've spoken out on the craft's plutonium dioxide power, made with the radioactive element used in nuclear weapons. (The plutonium used on Cassini, though, is not weapons-grade.)
Come launch time -- in October 1997 -- the protesters staked out the Cape Canaveral launch site to try to stop the probe.
The launch went off without a hitch.
And when the craft was on its way back to Earth after spiraling around Venus for a gravity boost, the opponents once again unfurled their banners.
Jonathan Mark was one of the protest leaders. His website, "Stop Cassini Earth Flyby," was a kind of Protest Central for opponents of the craft.
On it, there are impassioned pleas to stop the mission with headlines like "NASA Misleads the World," and "The Cassini Gamble."
There are links to scholarly papers on the risks of the mission to the planet and its inhabitants and to political dispatches decrying the military's role in space research.
You can sign up for legal action and send off thoughts to world leaders.
And you can view pictures of the worldwide protests: of grandmothers making their voices heard, and Bangladeshis taking a stand.
But now that Cassini passed by safely, was it all for naught?
"Protesting against Cassini wasn't a mistake," Mark said. "It's significant, and I'm glad there wasn't any accident."
Mark, who sends his anti-Cassini newsletter to over 1,000 subscribers, still believes that plutonium-powered spacecraft could one day play a role in destroying life on Earth.
"We're living at a time when human beings don't have to survive on this planet," he said. "We can go extinct like the dinosaurs."
On the other side of the world, the General Secretary of the Bangladesh Astronomical Society had a similar reaction.
"Our calculation was not wrong, because we did not say that it would definitely fall on the Earth during its closest approach with Earth," F.R. Sarker said. "We were more concerned about the radioactive materials Cassini has been carrying on board."
NASA, on the other hand, couldn't resist a little gloating.
"We told you so," chimed in Mary Beth Murrill, spokeswoman for NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, when asked what she would say to the anti-Cassini protesters.
The space agency had said all along that a disaster was extremely unlikely, with a probability of less than one-in-a-million.
Another NASA spokesman, Douglas Isbell, said the protesters' concerns were legitimate, but that mission scientists had taken extra precautions to prevent an accident.
NASA is planning eight more missions that will rely on the same kind of plutonium power generators used on Cassini, Isbell said.
Radioisotope thermoelectric generators, or RTGs, power Cassini. They are primarily used on missions to the outer solar system, where the sun's rays are too weak to be a usable source of power.
RTGs rely on the heat produced as plutonium, a radioactive element, decays. A converter changes that heat into electricity, which powers the craft.
The next launch of an RTG-powered craft is scheduled for the end of 2003, the Europa Orbiter, which will study a moon of Jupiter.
Those future launches are keeping protesters from packing up their signs.
"Concern about future plutonium launches is my main concern," Mark said.
He plans to leave his website up as a reminder of the Cassini protests, though daily updates will probably stop.
And in Bangladesh, the Cassini probe's success has left a residue of worry.
"It is true, we are lucky as there was no accident with Cassini," said Sarker, whose group led an anti-Cassini protest march on June 18. "But we are unlucky because this would encourage NASA to launch more space probes in the future with plutonium dioxide until an accident really takes place."

Leonard Peltier's Parole Denied - Updated
[This page was updated 8/23 with Leonard Peltier's attorney's response to his parole being denied. Let Obama know what you think, and request a presidential pardon. We must maintain our efforts for truth and justice for Leonard and every innocent human being. The corrupt injustice-political-intelligence system sucks! But please don't give up!]
- - Leonard Peltier’s Parole Update
Fwd. From: contact@whoisleonardpeltier.info
Subject: Eric Seitz ~ Leonard Peltier Attorney ~ Response on Parole Denial
Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2009 15:42:17 -0700 (PDT)
The Bush Administration holdovers on the U.S. Parole Commission today adopted the position of the FBI that anyone who may be implicated in the killings of its agents should never be paroled and should be left to die in prison. Despite judicial determinations that the unrepentant FBI fabricated evidence and presented perjured testimony in Leonard Peltier's prosecution; despite a jury's acquittal on grounds of self-defense of two co-defendants who were found to have engaged in the same conduct of which Mr. Peltier was convicted; despite Mr. Peltier's exemplary record during his incarceration for more than 33 years and his clearly demonstrated eligibility for parole; despite letters and petitions calling for his release submitted by millions of people in this country and around the world including one of the judges who ruled on his earlier appeals; and despite his advanced age and deteriorating health, the Parole Commission today informed Mr. Peltier that his "release on parole would depreciate the seriousness of your offenses and would promote disrespect for the law," and set a reconsideration hearing in July 2024. This is the extreme action of the same law enforcement community that brought us the indefinite imprisonment of suspected teenage terrorists, tortures, and killings in CIA prisons around the world and promoted widespread disrespect for the democratic concepts of justice upon which this country supposedly was founded. These are the same institutions that have never treated indigenous peoples with dignity or respect or accepted any responsibility for centuries of intolerance and abuse. At his parole hearing on July 28th Leonard Peltier expressed regret and accepted responsibility for his role in the incident in which the two FBI agents and one Native American activist died as the result of a shootout on the Pine Ridge Reservation. Mr. Peltier emphasized that the shootout occurred in circumstances where there literally was a war going on between corrupt tribal leaders, supported by the government, on the one hand, and Native American traditionalists and young activists on the other. He again denied -- as he as always denied -- that he intended the deaths of anyone or that he fired the fatal shots that killed the two agents, and he reminded the hearing officer that one of his former co-defendants recently admitted to having fired the fatal shots, himself. Accordingly, it is not true that Leonard Peltier participated in "the execution style murders of two FBI agents," as the Parole Commission asserts, and there never has been credible evidence of Mr. Peltier's responsibility for the fatal shots as the FBI continues to allege. Moreover, given the corrupt practices of the FBI, itself, it is entirely untrue that Leonard Peltier's parole at this juncture will in any way "depreciate the seriousness" of his conduct and/or "promote disrespect for the law." We will continue to seek parole and clemency for Mr. Peltier and to eventually bring this prolonged injustice to a prompt and fair resolution.
Take Action! -
"..We know you’ve written letters, made calls, sent e-mails. First, thank you. Thank you very much for all you do on Leonard’s behalf. But now you have to do it again. And again. And again. Please. Do it and keeping doing it until Leonard Peltier is home with his family.
Call the White House Comment Line: 202-456-1111 or 202-456-1112;
AND Fax a letter to the White House: 202-456-2461;

"Amnesty International considers Leonard Peltier to be a political prisoner whose avenues of redress have long been exhausted....Amnesty International recognizes that a retrial is no longer a feasible option and believes that Leonard Peltier should be immediately and unconditionally released." Documents show that although the prosecution and government pointed the finger at Peltier for shooting FBI agents at close range during the trial in 1976, for three years the prosecution withheld critical ballistic test results proving that the fatal bullets could not have come from the gun tied to Leonard Peltier. This trial also denied evidence of self defense. The U.S. Prosecutor, during subsequent oral arguments, stated: "we can't prove who shot those agents". The Eighth Circuit found that "There is a possibility that the jury would have acquitted Leonard Peltier had the records and data improperly withheld from the defense been available to him in order to better exploit and reinforce the inconsistencies casting strong doubts upon the government's case." Yet, a new trial was denied. Judge Heaney, who authored the denial now supports Mr. Peltier's release, stating that the FBI used improper tactics to gain Mr. Peltier's conviction. A good way to learn about Leonard Peltier is to read his book: Prison Writings: My Life Is My Sun Dance.

UPDATE ON TODAY'S PAROLE HEARING!
Leonard Peltier Defense Offense Committee
In spite of scorching temps and humidity, there were several hundred people who attended and waited for several hours until attorney Eric Seitz came out and addressed the crowd. He said the FBI did not have anything new to say but that he was able to present some additional evidence on Leonard's behalf to the board. Leonard spoke with the board and answered questions for 1-1/2 hours. The hearing officer said he would look over his documentation and make a recommendation within 24-48 hours, at which time the parole board has up to 3 weeks to make a final determination. Leonard has expressed his thanks for all of the efforts made on his behalf today. Eric Seitz said he feels "optimistic."
We are receiving an outpouring of support from around the world, including Archbishop Desmond Tutu even today...

New York City Coalition for Accountability Now
27 July 2009 Alert - Update
A CALL TO ACTION – FORWARD WIDELY - NYCCAN.org
9/11 FAMILIES, FIRST RESPONDERS AND SURVIVORS TO
TAKE NEW YORK CITY TO COURT OVER NYC CAN PETITION
SEVENTY THOUSAND New Yorkers signed the NYC CAN petition, raising their voices in support of NYC CAN’s demand for accountability. They have chosen to place the decision to create a new 9/11 investigation – a REAL 9/11 investigation – exactly where it belongs: before the voters of New York City this November. The voices of SEVENTY THOUSAND Americans who believe in democracy and believe that government exists to serve the people – and not the other way around – have been GAGGED by ONE so-called “PUBLIC SERVANT” – The New York City Clerk – who denied the petition and the voice of the people.
Welcome to America. Democracy denied.
Did you REALLY expect those in halls of power to honor the WILL OF THE PEOPLE? Did you expect this demand for accountability to go uncontested by those who have forgotten the very meaning of the word? Perhaps this obstruction of democracy would go unchallenged in THEIR America. Not in OUR America.
9/11 family members, first responders and survivors expected nothing less than business as usual and ARE NOT HAVING IT. They are preparing to take the City of New York to court to challenge the wrongful denial of our right to decide on the creation of a new 9/11 investigation.
Friends, your determination and generosity have brought us to this crucial moment. TRUTH IS AT THE CROSSROADS, DEMOCRACY UNDER FIRE AND THE DEFINING MOMENT IN THE QUEST FOR ACCOUNTABILITY IS UPON US. This is YOUR movement and nothing may bring you closer to attaining truth than NYC CAN. Stand in the light and demand ANSWERS, not in the shadows of those who would deny you such answers.
THE BIG NEWS: the most experienced election lawyer in New York City stands ready to represent the 9/11 families, first responders and survivors in court in an HISTORIC FIGHT FOR DEMOCRACY AND TRUTH. BUT WE DESPERATELY NEED YOUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. This is your chance – your ONE chance – to stand with the 9/11 families, first responders and survivors, and demand accountability. THIS IS WHAT WE HAVE WORKED FOR, AND WHAT WE CAN ACHIEVE IF WE STAND TOGETHER NOW.
Donate over $25 and we’ll mail you a free NYC CAN button. Donate over $50 and you will receive a free NYC CAN button and a well-made NYC CAN t-shirt.
ACT RIGHT NOW. Go to – NYCCAN.org – and donate whatever you can to bring the quest for answers to the biggest stage it has ever had: THE NEW YORK CITY BALLOT.

“The truth is, there is no Islamic army or terrorist group called Al Qaida.

Editor’s Notes:
This will be an issue that will take some time to fully absorb, but don’t let that discourage you. There is some life saving and awareness-provoking information here. I realize many are a bit scattered (in the northern hemisphere) this time of year, but your attention is needed to consider taking appropriate actions to counteract deceit, betrayal, and treason. Item one covers updates on 9/11 truth. Item two is on the crazy H1N1 lab-escaped-created Swine Flu Pandemic. Doesn’t it make you feel cozy inside that President Obama gave immunity to the Swine live-attenuated virus vaccine makers? Meanwhile, should there be hope for Leonard Peltier getting out of prison soon from his July 28th parole hearing? It sure would be a good sign that the neocon slave lords are not still in full charge of the US government. The last item goes back 40- years ago with a question. Why has no human or other life form ever gone past where they nuked the Van Allen belts in 1964?
"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it,
people will become accustomed to believing it."

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - July 15, 2009
9/11 Families, First Responders and Survivors Gather at City Hall to Endorse 2009 Ballot Referendum to Establish New Official 9/11 Investigation in NYC, Call on New Yorkers for Support
New York - Outside City Hall today relatives of 9/11 victims, first responders and survivors of the September 11th attacks gathered to endorse a November ballot initiative to establish a new 9/11 investigation under the auspices of the city government of New York. Support on the street is high, the group says, and polls indicate a majority of New Yorkers wants a new investigation.
On June 24, the group leading the ballot initiative, the New York City Coalition for Accountability Now (NYC CAN) filed a petition containing 52,000 signatures with the office of the City Clerk. The official filing initiated a 60-day period specified in Section 37 of the New York Municipal Home Rule Law in which the City Council is asked to review the petition and approve its placement on the upcoming November ballot.
Since this milestone filing, the group has gathered an additional 15,000 signatures and received several endorsements from prominent leaders. Renowned whistleblower and former FBI agent Coleen Rowley, who TIME magazine selected as one of three "Persons of the Year" in 2002, endorsed a new investigation yesterday, as reported by RAWSTORY (http://rawstory.com/blog/2009/07/ex-fbi-agent-why-i-support-a-new-911-investigation/). Bill Doyle, who lost his son Joseph, has been an outspoken leader of an active community of relatives of the 9/11 victims and he too released a statement endorsing a new inquiry in New York. Joining Doyle in support as signatory to an NYC CAN online petition is Christine O'Neil, wife of ex-FBI Agent John O'Neil, who was killed on the job at the World Trade Center and Lorie Van Auken, a widow from New Jersey and former member of the 9/11 Family Steering Committee.
Manny Badillo, who lost his uncle Thomas, and who serves NYC CAN as Director of Outreach, said in an opening statement "Thomas Keane and Lee Hamilton, the Chairmen of the 9/11 Commission, after issuing their report, both admitted that the Commission was unsuccessful. In their own words, the Commission was 'Set Up To Fail'." Sen Cleland called it a national scandal.
Badillo was joined by 9/11 victim family members Donna Marsh O'Connor and Bob McIlvaine, and survivor Janette MacKinlay, all members of the NYCCAN Executive Council who also made impassioned statements of support. Eileen Coles, an US Air Force Desert Storm veteran and former intelligence officer, stated, "Our only way forward to restore our national honor is to answer the questions and demand accountability. This will not happen without a truly impartial and scientific examination of the evidence."
NYC CAN is non-partisan organization comprised of 9/11 Families, First Responders, Survivors and proud, concerned citizens committed to bringing about an independent, impartial investigation into the events of September 11. For more info: NYCCAN.org

- - Treason reported to Judge and Nano-thermite Paper on record
Treason reported to Judge in Van Nuys and Nano-thermite
Peer-Reviewed Paper all on record in open court
By Ed Brotherton
[Via email original sent To: 9-11-359-list-list@meetup.com]
Monday, July 13, 2009 5:33 PM
On Monday July 13, 2009 I Edward Alan Brotherton fulfilled the legal requirements of Title 18 Section 2382 of the United States Code by reporting treason to Judge Leland B Harris of Division 107 at the Van Nuys Criminal Court.
Here is how it went down.
First I spoke to Matt (last name unknown) who is now the Regional Chief of Staff of Congressman Brad Sherman about setting up a meeting to discuss what the next course of action should be with regards to investigating the attacks of 9-11 as well as the cover-up. He told me to stop by either Monday or Tuesday between 10 and 2PM. So I took him up on the offer. Matt wasn’t there so I spoke to another staff member who basically told me the same thing I’ve been hearing for the past 3 years. I handed her the information that Congressman Brad Sherman already has -- relating to the peer reviewed scientific paper on nano-thermite being found in the dust of the world trade center.
I realized I wasn’t going to get anywhere with them, so I decided I would look into the logistics of how to enforce the Treason and Misprision of Treason laws. I contacted the local Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department and asked them how to enforce these laws and that I have evidence that shows a cover-up of the attacks of Sept.11. They told me to contact the local police department.
I drove to the Van Nuys police department and walked up the counter and told them that I have evidence that there is a cover-up of the investigation into the attacks of Sept. 11th. They told me they couldn’t do anything and to talk to the feds. So I walked across the street to what I think was the federal building but it turned out to be the courthouse. I then decided that since the Treason statute requires anyone owing allegiance to the United States and having knowledge of Treason must report it to the President of the United States, a Judge of the United States, or to a Judge or Justice of any State. Since I was in the courthouse I decided to fulfill my legal requirement and see if I can report Treason to a Judge.
My first step was to figure out which courtroom to go to so I went to the clerk window and told them that I needed to see a Judge to fulfill the legal requirement laid out in Title 18 Section 2382. She directed me to the DA office. They directed me to any courtroom but recommended division 107. I made my way to the 5th floor and walked into the courtroom. I was the only one in there other than a lawyer, bailiff, court reporter, and the clerk.
The baliff approached me and asked if he can help. I then told him why I was there and that I needed to fulfill the legal requirements of Title 18 Section 2382 and that I needed to see the Judge so I can report an act of Treason. He took my information (the same information I handed the congressman staff member) and handed it to the court clerk who approached me and asked what I was there for. I told him, and he then took the information and walked into a back room where the judges chambers are.
The judge walked out about 10 minutes later with the information in hand and looks at me. First, he calls a case and handles it fairly quickly. He then steps out for another 10 minutes or so. He comes back looks at me again and says “Sir?” I stand up. He nods to the court reporter. She turns and begins to type away on her stenograph. The judge asks me to state my name, so I did. He then asks why I am there. I told him that I have information that the attacks of September 11th are being covered up and as a consequence it is giving aid and comfort to our enemies, and so I am here to fulfill the legal requirement laid out in Section 2382 of the title 18 of the United States Code.
He then asked how I ended up in his courtroom. I explained that the law requires me to report the Treason to a Judge. He then stated that the law refers to a Judge of the United States and the was just a Judge of the State. I then corrected him and referred him to the second page where it says “or a Judge or justice of any state.” He nods his head in agreement as he reads it. He then stated that he hasn’t had the time to review the information and asked if I can give him an idea of what it’s about. I was delighted.
I explained that the information contains a peer-reviewed scientific paper showing evidence that a military-grade explosives known as nano-thermite was found in the dust of the World Trade Center and that this information is being covered up and continues to be covered up and is therefore giving aid and comfort to our enemies. He asked how I came into this information and I explained that I have been involved in the 9-11 Truth movement for quite some time and a lot of people have been working very hard to get this information to the public and that I happen to be connected to a lot of these people.
He then asked what I would like him to do with this information. I explained whatever the law requires you to do. I am simply here to fulfill the legal requirement as laid out in section 2382. He asked for my driver’s license, which they made a copy of and said they would like to get back to me after he has a chance to review the documentation. He then read the drivers license information into the record and thanked me coming in.
Overall this was an incredible experience. The Judge was inquisitive, respectful, and seemed very sincere. I’m not sure what will come out it but it was a great litmus test and shows how to get that evidence in the hands of justice. I suggest doing this all over the country, not only giving them the peer-reviewed documentation on nano thermite but also all the other evidence surrounding the events of Sept. 11th. Definitely a good win today.
Ed Brotherton

Rob Balsamo, Pilots for 9/11 Truth on Fair and Balanced this Tuesday
Kevin Barrett
NoLiesRadio.org: Rob Balsamo, pilotsfor911truth.org
Next to Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, Pilots for 9/11 Truth may be the most important professional organization in the 9/11 truth movement. The Pilots have done a tremendous amount of primary research, and their film Pandora’s Black Box deploys a stunning flight-path simulation to illustrate its main point: The government’s version of the “jetliner attack” on the Pentagon is impossible.
Like many of our best researchers and activists, Rob Balsamo has been deceptively attacked by a tiny, bizarre cult that has seized control of several key 9/11 truth sites. The Pentagon research of Rob Balsamo and Pilots, and Craig Ranke and Aldo Marquis of CIT, is critically important, yet it has been effectively blacklisted by the major sites. Why? Here’s my take on the issue: http://truthjihad.blogspot.com/2009/07/911-pentagon-jetliner-attack-illusion.html
Also, please note that Rob and Pilots for 9/11 Truth really need some financial help right now. You can contribute by scrolling down the left column to the “Chip In” button at www.PilotsFor911Truth.org. And please buy the six-pack of Pilots DVDs at: http://pilotsfor911truth.org/store/#6PDVDM

The lawsuit cites Flight Data Recorder Analysis. Pilots For 9/11 Truth have been called upon to sign our names and professional reputations to the analysis which will be presented before a judge in a court of law.
Several individuals who make excuse for the govt story such as Glenn Beck, some who refuse to put their names and faces to their claims such as those who spend their days and nights obsessed with us, and those who endlessly attempt to smear anyone who questions 9/11 (albeit poorly), constantly complain we will never take our concerns to court. They have once again been proven wrong.

- - The September Eleventh Advocates’ Letters
Submitted to 911blogger.com by Jon Gold - 07/19/2009
Over the years, 9/11 Family Members Kristen Breitweiser, Lorie Van Auken, Mindy Kleinberg, Patty Casazza, and Monica Gabrielle, or the September Eleventh Advocates, have written open letters about different issues concerning the 9/11 attacks. I have compiled every letter that I have (not every letter is written by all of them), and put them into one file for you to download. I figured that along with the report written by Lorie Van Auken, and Mindy Kleinberg regarding how well the 9/11 Commission answered the 9/11 Family Steering Committee’s questions, as well as the new report on the nano-thermite, this could be printed, and handed out to people. Please spread this around, and thank you.

From World Reports – 17 July 2009
THE HEADING FOR THIS REPORT IS CENSORED BY THE NSA
THE LIES HAVE DECAYED AND THE PERPETRATORS ARE IN A PANIC
By Christopher Story FRSA, Editor and Publisher, International Currency Review,

[EXCERPT]
• NOTICE TO AMERICANS FACING FORECLOSURE ON THEIR PROPERTIES:
READ THIS AFTER YOU HAVE READ OUR REPORT [ARCHIVE] DATED 26TH DECEMBER 2007.
This development proves the accuracy of the advice given in that report, namely: THE ORIGINAL MORTGAGE DOCUMENTS MUST BE PROVIDED, OR FORECLOSURE CAN BE NIXED BY THE COURTS, AND THERE IS NOTHING THE BANK CAN DO ABOUT IT:
NEW JERSEY COURT DISMISSES FORECLOSURE FILED BY DEUTSCHE BANK FOR FAILURE TO PROVIDE DISCOVERY AS TO OWNER AND HOLDER OF NOTE, SECURITIZED TRUST DOCUMENTS, AND OTHER DOCUMENTS DEMANDED BY BORROWERS
* SUNDAY, 19TH JULY UPDATE: IMPORTANT:
According to our information, THE STATES HAVE NOT BEEN PAID BECAUSE THE STIMULUS MONEY HAS NOT BEEN PAID BECAUSE THE SETTLEMENTS HAVE BEEN BLOCKED BY THESE MANIACS, who are intent upon protecting their own positions and, as has been the case all along, couldn’t care less about ordinary American employees and their families.
Employees of certain States, get this, are going to work on the basis of an undertaking that they will be paid. WHAT DOES THIS REMIND YOU OF? Answer: The constant ying-yang ‘promises’ and broken promises and raised and lowered expectations which the 320,000 (390,000) ransacked, scammed and pillaged Ponzi ‘Program’ victims have suffered over the years.
* Only NOW, they are doing it to simple, straightforward, American workers and State employees. They expect these people, who have mortgages to pay, to go to work on a promise?
What is this, a deliberate attempt to trigger blood in the streets?
Our answer to that is: NO! These people are terrified of the likes of US: everyone who is standing up (including especially YOU, reader) against these criminals. It is TRUE that they are more scared of the likes of US than ‘we’ are of them. They are cornered. They have no idea what to do.
* PLEASE ALSO READ THIS IMPORTANT NOTICE BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER:
The main heading of this report was intended to be:
9/11 MASS MURDER BY THREE CRIMINAL U.S. PRESIDENTS
* But it is blocked by the intrusive NSA censors. The entire report could not be posted with this heading. But when we amended the heading to read: THE HEADING FOR THIS REPORT IS CENSORED BY THE NSA... as above... we were able to post it.
* THIS, everyone, provides the whole world with a potent indication that ‘9/11 MASS MURDER BY THREE CRIMINAL U.S. PRESIDENTS’ is the APPROPRIATE heading for this report, and that the statement it contains is TRUE [as is revealed in the text below].

A Conspiracy Reality Underlies the Swine Flu Black Op
Special Report – Tetrahedron, LLC – Dr. Leonard Horowitz
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: Jackie Lindenbach--(208) 265-8065
Los Angeles--CIA assassinations and paramilitary operations secreted from congressional overseers and the American people have extended into the realm of swine flu bioterrorism and vaccinations for profitable depopulation according to medical journalist and CIA analyst, Dr. Leonard Horowitz.
The CIA spent years advancing secret squads to blow things up and kill humans according to U.S. intelligence officials interviewed by Greg Miller of the Los Angeles Times. (July 16, 2009) What the Times failed to report was current connections between drug industrialists and CIA officials that best explain the mysterious emergence of the swine flu virus in Mexico, and the international media’s curious response to the planned pandemic, according to Dr. Horowitz--a Harvard-trained investigator and award-winning author of several books on this subject.
[EXCERPT]
In 1986, William Casey, CIA chief under Reagan, approved a Pakistani intelligence proposal to recruit Islamic fundamentalists worldwide to conduct covert operations. When the Pakistanis recruited, and the bin Ladens and Saudis financed, the Afghanistan black-operatives at that time, American officials, including previous CIA director, George H.W. Bush, “funneled more than $2 billion in guns and money” during the 1980s in the “largest covert action program since World War II,” the Washington Post, reported (7/19/92).
The CIA, often referred to as “the Company,” maintained ties to wealthy financiers, including Carlyle Group investors Mohammed bin Laden and George H.W. Bush, co-investors in this mega defense contractor along with James Baker III, who oversaw the Florida vote recount in Bush, Jr’s contested 2000 election. In addition, Donald Rumsfeld, Defense Secretary under Gerald Ford and George W. Bush, whose connections to the global drug-cartel include his launching of the Tamiflu-manufacturing company Gilead Sciences, conducted business dealings with Carlyle Group executive, Frank C. Carlucci. (JudicialWatch.org,11-30-2001)
In November 2005, George W. Bush urged Congress to pass $7.1 billion in emergency funding to prepare for the possible bird flu pandemic, of which one billion was solely dedicated to the purchase and distribution of Tamiflu.
Earlier, in June 1996, Gilead launched its first commercial product, Vistide (cidofovir injection) for the treatment of cytomegalovirus (CMV) in AIDS patients. “If you want to know where the herpes virus pandemic mostly comes from,” Dr. Horowitz wrote, “think of contaminated vaccines spread to produce cancer for profit by the Carlyle-CIA-backed cartel.”
Cytomegalovirus is one of three herpes type viruses, including herpes B, simian cytomegalo from monkeys used in vaccine development, and Epstein Barr, another vaccination infection.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), now known to cause AIDS-like immune deficiency, and one of the three AIDS-linked cancers called lymphomas, was first cultured from a Burkitt’s lymphoma cell line in 1964 that Dr. Horowitz traced to CIA-directed vaccine experiments conducted by the American biological weapons lab called Litton Bionetics. Bionetics operated in Maryland, Virginia, Eastern Zaire and Northwest Uganda during the 1960s according to National Cancer Institute documents discovered by Horowitz. The covert African operation was conducted under the supervision of Frank Carlucci.
Carlucci has been a Managing Director of Carlyle since 1989 and its Chairman since 1993. Carlucci became the point man for CIA-directed “health care” programs in various parts of Africa during the early 1960s. He became the deputy director of the CIA in 1978, deputy secretary of defense in 1980, and national security adviser during the Iran-contra scandal. Carlucci also served as chief “political officer” in the African Congo’s American Embassy at the time Burkett’s lymphoma was allegedly discovered, and obviously distributed in this region of Africa by way of contaminated vaccines, according to substantial evidence compiled by Dr. Horowitz including an interview with one of the doctors engaged in the vaccination operation.
All of this is published, and meticulously evidenced using reprinted scientific and government documents in Dr. Horowitz’s best of three national bestselling books, Emerging Viruses: AIDS & Ebola--Nature, Accident or Intentional? (Tetrahedron Press, 1998) Barack Obama’s minister, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, recommended reading this book, in defense of harsh criticism he received for his sermon condemning the US Government for creating HIV. For those who do not believe our government would conduct such hideous atrocities, technically called genocide, Barack Obama disavowed his minister.
Under CIA supervision and covert actions by government officials linked to Carlyle on behalf of the global petrochemical-pharmaceutical cartel, new diseases have emerged. Dr. Horowitz evidences these including Burkitt’s lymphoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, infectious mononucleosis, AIDS and today, the circulating swine flu, and avian flu threats.
While the Carlyle-Bush-Baker-Carlucci-Rumsfeld connections are troubling enough in their own right, they look even worse when you consider how many different ways Carlyle is profiting from the war on terrorism and bioterrorism.
In 2001, Dr. Horowitz exposed the anthrax mailings as sourcing from the CIA’s “Project Clearvision.” The anthrax was mailed to enemies of Carlyle, including democratic drug legislation opponents, Senators Patrick Leahy and Tom Dashle. The hyper-weaponized germ sourced from the Battelle Memorial Institute in West Jefferson, Ohio, under the direction of CIA-anthrax ace, William Patrick, III, who assayed the mailed virus’s spreading capacity two years before the attacks. According to Dr. Horowitz, and many other experts, this was done to promote sales of Bayer’s CIPRO; and stockpiles of BioPort, LLC’s congressionally-certified deadly anthrax vaccine.
US military leaders reported finding a BioPort annual prospectus in a cave allegedly used to shelter Osama bin Laden in 2002, probably because Carlyle clients, including Mohammad bin Laden, had invested in the company. Today, BioPort, renamed BioThrax, is allied with drug cartel giants Acambis, Sanofi Pasteur, and other companies that make money from people sustaining side effects from their drugs and vaccines; especially the ones exclusively stockpiled by our federal officials.
Regarding company assassins carrying out close-range killings, a former CIA official told Greg Miller from the LA Times, “This is something they don’t really have a capacity for.”
“But long-range killings through manufactured frights, forced vaccinations, mass quarantines, and compelled druggings,” Dr. Horowitz wrote, “is obviously central to their genocidal operations on behalf of Carlyle and Halliburton investors.”
On July 16, 2009, it was announced that by fall, government health officials and social service workers will be canvassing every American household, carrying four required flu vaccines, that shall be given to those persuaded to take them. The campaign is mostly “targeting” children and the elderly.
In response, there are now many reasonable, responsible, intelligent, and patriotic Americans, including many health professionals, who have decided to leave the United States before flu season.

- - Legal immunity set for swine flu vaccine makers
By MIKE STOBBE (AP) – 17 July 2009
ATLANTA The last time the government embarked on a major vaccine campaign against a new swine flu, thousands filed claims contending they suffered side effects from the shots. This time, the government has already taken steps to head that off.
Vaccine makers and federal officials will be immune from lawsuits that result from any new swine flu vaccine, under a document signed by Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius, government health officials said Friday.
Since the 1980s, the government has protected vaccine makers against lawsuits over the use of childhood vaccines. Instead, a federal court handles claims and decides who will be paid from a special fund.
The document signed by Sebelius last month grants immunity to those making a swine flu vaccine, under the provisions of a 2006 law for public health emergencies. It allows for a compensation fund, if needed.
The government takes such steps to encourage drug companies to make vaccines, and it's worked. Federal officials have contracted with five manufacturers to make a swine flu vaccine. First identified in April, swine flu has so far caused about 263 deaths, according to numbers released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Friday.
The CDC said more than 40,000 Americans have had confirmed or probable cases, but those are people who sought health care. It's likely that more than 1 million Americans have been sickened by the flu, many with mild cases.
The virus hits younger people harder that seasonal flu, but so far hasn't been much more deadly than the strains seen every fall and winter. But health officials believe the virus could mutate to a more dangerous form, or at least contribute to a potentially heavier flu season than usual.
"We do expect there to be an increase in influenza this fall," with a bump in cases perhaps beginning earlier than normal, said Dr. Anne Schuchat, director of the CDC's National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases.
On Friday, the Food and Drug Administration approved the regular winter flu vaccine, a final step before shipments to clinics and other vaccination sites could begin.
The last time the government faced a new swine flu virus was in 1976. Cases of swine flu in soldiers at Fort Dix, N.J., including one death, made health officials worried they might be facing a deadly pandemic like the one that killed millions around the world in 1918 and 1919.
Federal officials vaccinated 40 million Americans during a national campaign. A pandemic never materialized, but thousands who got the shots filed injury claims, saying they suffered a paralyzing condition called Guillain-Barre Syndrome or other side effects.
"The government paid out quite a bit of money," said Stephen Sugarman, a law professor who specializes in product liability at the University of California at Berkeley.
Vaccines aren't as profitable as other drugs for manufacturers, and without protection against lawsuits "they're saying, 'Do we need this?'" Sugarman said.
The move to protect makers of a swine flu didn't go over well with Paul Pennock, a prominent New York plaintiffs attorney on medical liability cases. The government will likely call on millions of Americans to get the vaccinations to prevent the disease from spreading, he noted.
"If you're going to ask people to do this for the common good, then let's make sure for the common good that these people will be taken care of if something goes wrong," Pennock said.

The pandemic vaccine version will be spread over two doses in a higher quantity, and one brand [Gee, I wonder who that could be?] is expected to contain a chemical additive to make it go further, potentially increasing the risk of side-effects... A previous vaccine against swine flu turned out to be worse than the disease. An outbreak in the US in 1976 infected 200 soldiers at a military camp [Fort Dix] in New Jersey... But before it was over 40 million people had been vaccinated, 25 of whom died and 500 of whom developed Guillain-Barre syndrome, an inflammation of the nervous system which can cause paralysis and be fatal.

- - OxySilver – A New Way to Fight Disease and Crazy Pharmas
From OxySilver.com - OXYSILVER™ pioneers a new class of mineral waters providing the most powerful immune system support in healthcare history. Used daily by people who need it, or periodically whenever necessary to regain or sustain health, it can be relied upon more assuredly than any product ever developed.
Silver hydrosols, in general, are superior powerful broad spectrum anti-microbials. They have been scientifically proven safe, effective, and life-saving in hospitals and health clinics when used sparingly according to health and environmentally-conscious recommendations. These powerful health guards provide a wide range of practical applications as alternatives to humanly toxic and environmental destructive chemical disinfectants, poisonous antibiotics, and risky vaccinations.
OXYSILVER™ is produced through unique energetic processes using laser light, sound, and silver to electro-magnetically activate the hydrosol to deliver a 528Hz frequency of natural harmony to your body. This important harmonic is amplified by tiny, electrically-conductive, nano-sized silver particles bonded to oxygen in this water containing pure lava-heated steam harvested on the Big Island of Hawaii. 528Hz hydrosonics is fundamental to health, wellness, and all creation.
So OXYSILVER™ delivers nature’s central defense against dis-ease hydrosonically and harmonically. This amazing new mineral water transmits vibrations to your body water from molecules made of silver covalently bonded to a multitude of oxygen atoms. This unprecendented molecule produces scientifically proven benefits without any known risks using the small amounts recommended to produce huge health and environmental advantages.
Some people can’t imagine this, including the major corporations producing risky expensive antibiotics and intoxicating vaccines (i.e., OxySilver’s competition). But you can help save lives, and our environment, by using and distributing this new technology.
OxySilver’s covalently bonded silver-oxygen mineral water concentrate is entirely unique. It should not be mistaken as a colloidal silver. Not even the finest silver hydrosols that, likewise, boast tiny nano-sized silver particles needed to improve health and provide protective benefits are like OxySilver. Indeed, OxySilver heralds a new generation of water-based solutions built on the excellent performance of silver colloids and nano-particle size hydrosols. Our covalently-bonded silver-oxygen molecules are a breakthrough so small they gently penetrate cell membranes complimenting nature’s ongoing immunological nurturance and sustenance of human cells at the expense of pathogens.
OxySilver is designed to help you feel and generally perform better than ever before. The OxySilver molecules have been proven to assist the body in a variety of beneficial and remarkable ways. Key among these is the freedom from infectious diseases that are plaguing the world today.

- - Testimonial by Jonathan Mark for Flyby News
Affiliate of OxySilver
I first heard of OxySilver over the Internet after watching the film documentary by Dr. Leonard Horowitz, "In Lies We Trust: The CIA, Hollywood & Bioterrorism". Dr. Horowitz is the author of the NY Times bestseller, "Emerging Viruses: AIDS & Ebola--Nature, Accident or Intentional?"
I contracted Lyme Disease a couple of years ago and used the conventional antibiotic Doxycycline treatment. After 19 days I began to feel my body shutting down, and stopped taking the antibiotic. I continued taking probiotics. Yet, after a while I noticed symptoms of chronic lyme disease; I read and started acting upon the advice in the book, “The Top 10 Lyme Disease Treatments: Defeat Lyme Disease with the Best of Conventional and Alternative Medicine” by Bryan Rosner. Now, I have added OxySilver to my list of preferable antibiotics. Plus, I continue taking milk thistle for liver support and take in lots of good fluids, fruits, non dairy vegetarian nourishing diet.
I had immediate positive results from OxySilver, which ended symptoms of a long-term intestinal bug overnight with one teaspoon. Silver hydrosols were developed by NASA in the 1970’s. However, there have been mixed results from the use of silver hydrosols in colloidal silver. It works to kill germs, yes, but the concentration of this heavy metal was not always consistent and could become a health risk. OxySilver solves that problem by using less silver in a nano-solution with oxygen, which is most beneficial in fighting germs and for removal from the body. It works too as a topical solution, which knocked out infections on my fingers, and one time on my chest from what I believe was another deer tick lyme infection.
Now is the time to consider finding alternatives to government-supported vaccinations, especially since evidence has revealed diseases have originated from laboratories and vaccination programs. This is true for Lyme disease and now for this latest Swine Flu pandemic. Dr. Adrian Gibbs, an Australia-based virologist with more than 200 scientific publications to his credit, stated that the “H1N1 (virus) last seen in 1950 after a period of non-evolution” is likely due to an escape of the virus from their laboratory.
The consequences of this can have a wide range of possible outcomes. On the extreme edge it could take down the world financial economy, it could create havoc, martial law, loss of freedom, more of a new world disorder. Or, it could set things up for another time, hampering the immune system a little more, making great profits with human suffering paying the bill, and things could continue longer. Yet, we, as individuals are able to find an alternative for our own health. We must learn of those who we can trust by their actions, and those proven untrustworthy.

4) Moon landing tapes got erased – Who is Surprised?
- - A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Moon

Moon landing tapes got erased, NASA admits
Published by Reuters, July 16, 2009
The original recordings of the first humans landing on the moon 40 years ago were erased and re-used, but newly restored copies of the original broadcast look even better, NASA officials said on Thursday.
NASA released the first glimpses of a complete digital make-over of the original landing footage that clarifies the blurry and grainy images of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walking on the surface of the moon.
The full set of recordings, being cleaned up by Burbank, California-based Lowry Digital, will be released in September. The preview is available at www.nasa.gov.
NASA admitted in 2006 that no one could find the original video recordings of the July 20, 1969, landing.
Since then, Richard Nafzger, an engineer at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Centre in Maryland, who oversaw television processing at the ground-tracking sites during the Apollo 11 mission, has been looking for them.
The good news is he found where they went. The bad news is they were part of a batch of 200,000 tapes that were degaussed
-- magnetically erased -- and re-used to save money.
“The goal was live TV,” Nafzger told a news conference.
“We should have had a historian running around saying ‘I don’t care if you are ever going to use them -- we are going to keep them’,” he said.
They found good copies in the archives of CBS news and some recordings called kinescopes found in film vaults at Johnson Space Centre.
Lowry, best known for restoring old Hollywood films, has been digitizing these along with some other bits and pieces to make a new rendering of the original landing.
Nafzger does not worry that using a Hollywood-based company might fuel the fire of conspiracy theorists who believe the entire lunar program that landed people on the moon six times between 1969 and 1972 was staged on a movie set or secret military base.
“This company is restoring historic video. It mattered not to me where the company was from,” Nafzger said.
“The conspiracy theorists are going to believe what they are going to believe,” added Lowry Digital Chief Operating Officer Mike Inchalik.
And there may be some unofficial copies of the original broadcast out there somewhere that were taken from a NASA video switching centre in Sydney, Australia, the space agency said. Nafzger said someone else in Sydney made recordings too.
“These tapes are not in the system,” Nafzger said. “We are certainly open to finding them.”

- - A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Moon
From moonmovie.com
In July of 1969, the entire world watched as Neil Armstrong called out those infamous words from the surface of a secret studio set: "That's one small step for man..." Now, for the first time, the full scale of the hoax has been exposed in detail by the research specialists, engineers, contributing editors and filmmakers brought together at MOONMOVIE.COM and our sister site.
One of the filmmakers formerly associated with this website is now mostly known for his over-the-top dedication to this research. He directly confronted nine of the Apollo astronauts with his claim that NASA had sent him footage by mistake, footage that proves the Apollo missions were indeed faked from start to finish. Investors were so impressed with his findings that they spent half a million dollars to expose the truth before the world. The world is taking notice, as you look below and to your right you'll see new visitors on our counter, who have joined you from all over the globe in a quest for the truth behind Apollo.
Millions do not yet know that the Apollo 11 crew has been caught red-handed by the accidental [or whistle blowing?] release of incriminating footage. The now infamous tape shows Aldrin, Armstrong and Collins completely faking their trip to the moon, two days before they were supposed to be there. And when NASA found out that the 1969 tape had been mislabeled and sent out to filmmaker Bart Sibrel, they quickly introduced the cover-up story. The crew was simply "practicing". Others have attempted to claim this film had already been released, but this is simply not the case. The accompanying shots were also released on Apollo 11 Monkey Business: False Photography Unedited, with film dated July 11, 1969. The content of the shots alone prove that the entire Apollo 11 lunar encounter was staged from start to finish. We were first introduced to this tape with the release of A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Moon.
MoonMovie.com is the exclusive place to gain access to the historical footage of Apollo 11 (straight from NASA) that few in the world have ever seen. Are you willing to take a look behind the scenes of the moon landings of Apollo, past the 'All American' boy image of Neil Armstrong, and into the harsh reality that the Apollo missions were designed as a cover for something far removed from a peaceful race to the moon?

"A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Moon"
A 47-minute film by Bart Sibrel
I have watched this film numerous times. It blends beautifully images of art and information. It goes beyond a technical review of the evidence, and includes showing what was happening around the Apollo Missions during the turbulent times from 1969 to 1972. It captures images of a nuclear weapon detonation, JFK's assassination, Vietnam War, murder, famine, emerging diseases, civil rights, riots, protests, oppression. But its main achievement is in providing a forum for evidence of fraud regarding NASA’s Apollo Missions.
The most amazing evidence is from NASA’s own film footage showing the astronauts practicing shooting a video about being half way to the moon, while really in low orbit. One begins to wonder about this film’s authenticity and other questions about the mission. Most notably, if Americans reached the moon four times with 1960’s technology, why since that period has no human or living species has ever gone beyond low orbit into outer space?
In 1998 when the space shuttle flew to one of its highest altitudes ever, about four hundred miles, (still, hundreds of miles below where the Van Allen Belts are strongest), the astronauts reported seeing radiation going through their heads with their eyes closed. The radiation penetrated their shielding superior to that which the Apollo astronauts supposedly used. CNN reported: "The radiation belts surrounding Earth may be more dangerous for astronauts than previously believed (like when they supposedly went through them thirty years ago to reach the Moon.) The phenomenon known as the 'Van Allen Belts' can spawn (newly discovered) 'Killer Electrons' that can dramatically affect the astronauts' health."
George Orwell wrote that "Those who control the future control the past." It appears that this is the case with those NAZI-scientists and officers recruited into USA intelligence and military agencies. It was only one year after President John F. Kennedy was assassinated, another military coup was spawned. This was not disclosed to the US public until December, 2000, when United Press International reported, "In 1964, a U.S atomic bomb blast in the Van Allen belts surrounding the earth almost permanently ended the U.S. space program, according to retired Gen. Ken Hannegan of the Defense Nuclear Agency . . . Hannegan acknowledged that during a 1964 test for a new U.S. anti-satellite weapon system, the United States fired an atomic bomb of about 50 KT (or two and a half times the strength of the Nakasaki bomb) in the Van Allen belts -- areas of radiation and charged particles which surround the earth's upper atmosphere and which are held in place by the earth's magnetic field.” Perhaps instead of ending the space program, it got transferred into a military charade and psychological operations. If the military wanted to prove this assessment wrong, all they need to do is send a living being now to an altitude of 1,000 miles from Earth and return. But they rather you wait until 2020, and who knows what will happen by then?
This film is well worth purchasing and viewing, and sharing with others. As my friend, Bart Jordan, told me, “Our future is in the past with no escape present.” And perhaps with this message there is hope that truth and science will free the controlled masses of Earth from the conspiring governments holding us down by fear, lies, and deceit. Lord Acton put it this way, “Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely.” It appears that deadly deceit has gone out of control beginning with the nuclear bomb, unleashing an absolutely terrifying destructive force into our world. Those controlling such destructive forces have lost sense to what life, science, peace, and security is all about. Perhaps if more people viewed “A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Moon,” the continuation of lies would be placed into context, and perhaps, if possible, there would be a greater chance in getting the nuclear genie back into the bottle, and abolishing all weapons of mass destruction. The other side of fear, ridicule, betrayal, is love, and that is an achievement still lacking today, while deceit and betrayal threaten the future of humankind. Instead of this film being depressing, quite the opposite is experienced, Bart Sibrel's film is a testament for integrity and for our very survival.

Space for Peace and September 11
Space for Peace and September 11A flyby perspective
By Jonathan Mark
One of the stranger events that happened near the end of the 20th Century was when NASA conducted two “flybys” around Venus on a journey towards Saturn. A flyby is a maneuver in frictionless space using gravity from a planet for a slingshot-acceleration effect. The strange part regarding “Cassini” was that it had 72.3 pounds of radioactive plutonium on board, and was scheduled for an Earth-flyby on August 17/18, 1999, while traveling at around 10 miles per second. Fortunately there was no inadvertent collision with Earth’s atmosphere, but why would NASA risk life on Earth while exploring the solar system?
Karl Grossman, author of “The Wrong Stuff: The US Space Program’s Nuclear Threat To Our Planet,” answered my question. He pointed to the U.S. Air Force report, "New World Vistas: Air and Space Power for The 2lst Century" where it stated "In the next two decades, new technologies will allow the fielding of space-based weapons of devastating effectiveness to be used to deliver energy and mass as force projection in tactical and strategic conflict. These advances will enable lasers with reasonable mass and cost to effect very many kills." However, the report notes, "power limitations impose restrictions" on such weapons systems, making them "relatively unfeasible. A natural technology to enable high power is nuclear power in space."
In response to the insanity of a NASA-plutonium Earth-flyby, I asked Professor Grossman if he could help me find an activist-webmaster. Jo McIntire who had helped those protesting Cassini’s launch at Cape Canaveral was the perfect partner. By December 1997 we launched the Action Site to Stop Cassini Earth Flyby (NoFlyby). We had more than a year and a half to accomplish our mission, to stop and/or expose the dangerous Earth-flyby.
Following the flyby in 1999, Michael Muller graciously helped me set up FlybyNews.com where I could operate it independently for “news in the post Cassini flyby era.” In the last ten years FN has covered US election fraud, global warming, uranium munitions, low frequency active sonar (harming whales and dolphins), new energy technologies in development (and being delayed), Middle East information and peace initiatives, human rights violations such as in the case of Leonard Peltier, Lori Berenson, Mumia Abu-Jamal, and others. However the initial crucial campaign was to maintain the authority of the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty to stop the arms race from entering outer space.
September 11, 2001 suddenly put everything into jeopardy. The patriotic fervor, the fear, the anger, a neurosis fueled by media betrayal, enabled George W. Bush to override sensibilities in Congress. The Anthrax letters sent to Democrat Party leaders and to major media networks obviously contained a threatening message. Yet, when it became known that the Anthrax originated from a US military base, publicity died down. Within months after 9/11 crimes, with Congress in his palm, Bush terminated the ABM Treaty.
The Neoconservative think-tank group, “The Project for a New American Century,” planned for such an event like 9/11. In its document, “Rebuilding America's Defenses,” it stated that "Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event--like a new Pearl Harbor."
On November 11, 2001 at the United Nations, George Bush, Jr. said almost threateningly, "Let us never tolerate outrageous conspiracy theories concerning the attacks of September the 11th; malicious lies that attempt to shift the blame away from the terrorists, themselves, away from the guilty." Could George Orwell have said it better, “War Is Peace?” One lie led to another, and WMDs became the big one to justify an attack on Iraq.
President Dwight D. Eisenhower might have warned us about the dangers of the military-industrial complex, but he could not have imagined the scope of betrayal and deceit following the crimes of September 11, 2001. In 1953 when being encouraged to engage in a preventive war against the Soviet Union, President Eisenhower flatly denounced it, saying, "All of us have heard this term `preventive war' since the earliest days of Hitler." He added, "I don't believe there is such a thing, and, frankly, I wouldn't even listen to anyone seriously that came in and talked about such a thing." Yet 9/11 was used for two ‘preemptive’ undeclared wars while covering up the truth of what really happened. The dark forces seemed content in increasing global destabilization, crimes against humanity, environmental destruction, and financial fraudulent policies. The path for a Neocon global dominant military agenda, and loss of citizen civil rights proceeded on all fronts, including US terrorism-torture policies.
With so many dire issues, uniting a justice and peace movement is no easy task. The mind-control impact of 9/11 is more than many peace activists can handle. The consequences of such a cover-up is simply frightening for most anyone. Yet, integrity, freedom, truth, science, and civilization hang in the balance.
The most hopeful campaign for exposing truth to awaken the critical mass public is with the New York City Coalition for Accountability Now (NYCCAN.org). Fifty-two thousand petitions have been delivered to the NY City Council to place a referendum question on the NYC ballot on November 3, 2009. A majority YES vote would authorize a subpoena-powered real investigation into the events of September 11, 2001.
Of course in an election as significant as this we expect foul play, but is resistance futile or fertile? I rather think the latter. NYC CAN proves the Emperor has no clothes on. No one stands above truth, and its relationship with science, and the responsibility to investigate unanswered questions. As Online Journal contributing writer, Kevin Quirk, entitled one of his articles, “More than a movement - the search for 9/11 truth is an awakening.”
Such an awakening can have dire consequences, which is why FN supports a truth and reconciliation pathway toward a nonviolent future. But the truth should disclose more than just about recent years. Citizens need to know about the truth of assassinations, the falsehood of corporate human rights, the dissolution of the US national banking system for an international crooked one, and other policies of betrayal to the US Constitution. Truth and Reconciliation was successful in South Africa for its political transformation. Of course there is potential for violence from the truth coming out, but also for reclaiming a lost USA Republic, and for a commitment to peace and honor that could lead our world to abolishing all weapons of mass destruction. Where others have failed to crack the nut, the citizens of NYC CAN - vote for peace!

On July 11, 2009 the Wisdom Fund, Citizen Investigating Team, and Pilots for 9/11 Truth, will present hard evidence that contradicts the official account of what happened at the Pentagon on 9/11. Following that is an article published in the June '09 issue of the Rock Creek Free Press on 13 eyewitnesses contradicting the Pentagon official [make-believe] 9/11 story.
Item two goes over the ugly truth of corrupt UK and US intelligence operations, and a war more likely about the drug trade than protecting people from tyranny. Bruce Gagnon contributes an article equating Obama’s crushing a fly to the collateral damage from drone-kills. In item two Christopher Story writes in the appendix to answer in part what the UK is doing in Afghanistan. Though Chris Story’s brilliance is more the norm than the exception, sometimes his reporting gets off track. This appears to what has happened in a segment of his recent article, revealing what I consider to be bias toward homosexuality.
Item three takes us again into the wonderful communications of Leonard Peltier. His statement was for the commemoration of Oglala, and the people who stand for human rights and justice. You have only until July 14 to have your letter supporting his parole considered. If Leonard remains in prison through Obama’s first year in Office, after more than 33 years of unjust imprisonment, we will know that Obama’s smooth talk is nothing more than about a great deception, a tragedy for all.
Item four shows us how horrendous loss of the USA Republic can descend. There is much evidence of foul play by the pharmaceutical giants; I am convinced that they have become part of the (sic) military-industrial complex. The greatest horror movie I have ever seen is a film documentary called “In Lies We Trust”. Now Dr. Horowitz has launched a new web site: FLUscam.com. He is warning us that vaccinations produce pandemics, and he has some suggestions on how to stay healthy. After contracting Lyme disease, (another laboratory creation), I started taking natural antibiotics since the conventional one was not fully effective. After more than a year, and after diarrhea for much of the winter, I tried his product that uses silver hyrdosols with oxygen, called OxySilver. After one teaspoon my intestinal bug was gone. I recommend this for anyone as an alternative to vaccinations or over-used and harmful conventional antibiotics. Dr. Horowitz believes the latest Swine-Flu Pandemic was created in the laboratory. This hypothesis was backed up by a mainstream scientist, working at TamiFlu. I recommend your considering becoming an affiliate of Dr. Horowitz’s company. It works, and much safer than colloidal silver.

By Ted Walter
Director– NYC CAN
Dear Friends!
On Wednesday, June 24, 2009, we filed the petition with 52,000 signatures!
9/11 Family Members Maureen Hunt and Manny Badillo, and First Responders Charlie Giles of the Feal Good Foundation and Bill Gleason of the World Trade Center Rescuers Foundation, arrived at the City Clerk’s office to deliver the petition and speak in behalf of all the proud and concerned citizens who deserve an unbiased, nonpolitical investigation of the tragedy that has affected us so deeply.
Thank you for getting us this far! City Council now has until August 24 to approve the placement of the referendum on the November 3 ballot. As hundreds more family members, first responders and survivors join our campaign and lobby their council members to support the petition, our chances grow.
In the unlikely event City Council does not approve the placement of the referendum on the ballot, we will be prepared to deliver an additional 30,000 signatures on August 24 to guarantee it gets on the ballot. Already we have 8,000 of the additional 30,000!
Now more than ever is the moment to stand up for what we believe in and convert to reality what we have been working towards for so long. This is how you can help:
DONATE IF YOU CAN. We need money to pay our amazing petitioners who are now collecting 4,000 to 5,000 signatures per week. We need money to pay a legal team. We need money to launch a full-scale PR campaign once the referendum is on the ballot. Go to http://NYCCAN.org/donate.php right now!
TELL FAMILY MEMBERS, FIRST RESPONDERS and SURVIVORS. We have a Statement of Support at NYCCAN.ORG that every family member, first responder, and survivor is welcome to sign. We have already accumulated over 60 signatories in the last week - THANK YOU to those of you who joined us in calling for a new, impartial investigation. Now our goal is to reach 1,000 signatories by September 11, 2009. If you know someone who was directly affected and wants accountability, send them to NYCCAN.ORG. The more New York-based family members, first responders and survivors who sign on, the more City Council will hear from the constituents it simply can’t ignore.
TELL YOUR FRIENDS. Nothing works like word of mouth. Forward this email far and wide.
While there is little room for celebration, we deserve to be proud of how far we have gotten and where we are going. Over eighteen months of hard work and selfless dedication from hundreds of individuals, and the generosity and faith shown by thousands of you across the globe, have gotten us here. And now it comes down to the next four months. Thank you for standing with us.
Sincerely,
Ted Walter

claims torture victim
By Matthew Hickley
25th June 2009
A British man spoke publicly for the first time yesterday to accuse MI5 officers of forcing him to confess to masterminding the July 7 bombings.
Jamil Rahman claims UK security officers were behind his arrest in 2005 in Bangladesh.
He says he was beaten repeatedly by local officials who also threatened to rape him and his wife.
Mr Rahman, who is suing the Home Office, said a pair of MI5 officers who attended his torture and interrogation would leave the room while he was beaten.
He claims when he told the pair he had been tortured they merely answered: 'They haven't done a very good job on you.'
Mr Rahman told the BBC: 'They were questioning me on the July 7 bombings, showing me pictures of the bombers.
'They showed me maps, terrains ... they asked me to draw things out and write names next to pictures.
'They threatened my family. They go to me, "In the UK, gas leaks happen, if your family house had a gas leak and everyone got burnt, there's no problems, we can do that easily".'
He says he eventually made a false confession of involvement in the July 7 bomb plots.
The extraordinary allegations will add to pressure on UK ministers to come clean over the way Britain's intelligence agencies have been allowed to gather evidence around the world in the eight years since the September 11 attacks.
Jamil Rahman, a former civil servant from south Wales, is a British citizen who moved to Bangladesh in 2005 and married a woman he met there. He returned to the UK last year.
He said: 'It was all to do with the British. Even the Bengali intelligence officer told me that they didn't know anything about me, that they were only doing this for the British.'
Mr Rahman, 31, says he was released after three weeks but re-arrested and mistreated repeatedly over the next two years.
He described how two men he believes were British agents would leave the room for 'a break' while he was beaten.
They often asked: 'We're not torturing you, are we?' and recorded his confirmations that they were not, he alleges.
The first time they tried to be friendly, they came in trying to show they were my friends, calm and relaxed, nothing wrong.
'I tried to demonstrate my innocence. I thought this is wrong, because they were British I might get some justice.'
He added: 'They showed me hundreds of pictures. Black, white, Chinese, bearded non-bearded, woman, man, young and old. Every time, they came for a new session, same pictures with new ones.
'The main thing they wanted me to be is a witness against another British man in Bangladesh. They pressured me so much to be a witness against this guy in court.
Mr Rahman denies being a terrorist, although he admits attending meetings in Britain of the radical Islamist group al-Muhajiroun - claiming he later rejected their extremist ideology.
A Home Office spokesman said: 'We firmly reject any suggestion that we torture people or ask others to do so on our behalf.
'Mr Rahman has made a lot of unsubstantiated allegations. They have not been evidenced in any court of law.'
Jamil Rahman is one of a number of former detainees who accuse the British Government colluded in their torture abroad.
His account echoes that of former Guantanamo Bay detainee Binyam Mohamed, who said he was tortured in Pakistan and Morocco with MI5's knowledge.
The 30-year-old Ethiopian says he was beaten and deprived of sleep to try to make him confess to an Al Qaeda 'dirty bomb' plot, and his treatment is now the subject of an unprecedented police investigation into MI5's conduct.

- - Like killing flies
By Bruce K. Gagnon
Tuesday, June 23, 2009
Times Record (Brunswick, Maine)
Dear Editor:
The national media made a big deal about President Obama killing a fly. His “I got the sucker” was even compared to a similar moment by honest Abe Lincoln.
But sadly little time in the national media is spent describing the tragic consequences to hundreds of innocent civilians in Afghanistan and Pakistan who have been killed by United States unmanned aerial vehicles, or “drones” as they are popularly called.
These drones are directed by military space satellites and flown by U.S. soldiers sitting at computer terminals inside Creech Air Force Base near Las Vegas, Nev. The Air Force named these drones the “Predator” and the “Reaper.” The pilots watch in “real time” as cameras on the drones send back images from the war zone and in split-second time a button is pressed and missiles are fired. Is it the Taliban? Is it a wedding?
Can there be the slightest doubt that this “hands off” way of killing today is absolutely repugnant? What does it say about us as a nation that we can cavalierly kill from a distance with little conscience or public outcry?
It’s as if we are just killing flies.

- - What Are We Doing In Afghanistan?
By Christopher Story
[Excerpted from Chris Story’s 21 June 2009 issue of World Report]
• APPENDIX:
[EXCERPT]
AN ANSWER (OF SORTS) TO OUR QUESTION: ‘WHAT ARE WE DOING IN AFGHANISTAN?
..The end-result of this catastrophically misguided intervention has been precisely to assist the US ‘Black’ Intelligence Power and its co-opted American Military Establishment to grab control over the heroin poppy crop, which was, as we and others have suspected, the entire purpose of the intervention all along.
In which case, our complaint that British soldiers are dying in Afghanistan to support a criminal enterprise and the nefarious intentions of two criminal governments is indeed well-founded: and the Editor is personally entitled to reiterate that his distinguished military father would be appalled at this gross perversion of British military power.
The other dimension that needs to be stressed here is that the Afghanistan venture is proxy for the uniformly catastrophic consequences that have arisen across the board due to the wholesale global ‘collectivisation of external action’ underlying the reprobate policy, espoused publicly by Mr Brown, of ‘pro-active’ intervention abroad, which is consistent with the assault on the nation state.
By definition, since every nation state nowadays is vulnerable to being attacked if powerful foreign powers take exception to any dimensions of its behaviour, the sovereign integrity of the nation state is greatly undermined: which is the whole point.
And of course, the intervention in Afghanistan has nothing whatsoever to do with British national interests, not least given that these have been collectivised within the context of the European Union Collective, which exists to usurp and replace its constituent nation states in conformity with the logic of the World Revolution generally.
The net result is that British troops have been redirected away from serving Queen and Country to assist the ‘Black’ American imperial Intelligence Power so as to consolidate its evil control over the heroin trade, an operation ‘necessary’ to provide an open-ended pipeline for the financing of its continued status as the controlling ‘State within the State’, and (according to the head of UNODC in his interview with the Austrian journal ‘Profil’ in January), to provide interbank market liquidity.

3) Statement for Oglala Commemoration By Leonard Peltier
Greetings my friends and relatives,
I want to start off this statement or speech or whatever you want to call it by saying again as I’ve said before thank you thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting me and for standing up for right wherever you are. I can’t express to you in words how extremely grateful I am not just to the people of America but to the people all over the world who have supported the cause of Indian people and myself.
I know a lot of you have given up a lot to help so many in my predicament. Daily I am made aware of political prisoners around the world. Many who have been killed or tortured or who knows what for trying to right the wrongs in their area, country or nation. I have been asked to make statements in support of other movement people around the world from time to time, South America, Europe and other places. People who love freedom, people who love the earth, people who love their family, people who love the freedom to make their own choice with their own resources, and all indigenous people- we share a common bond. The bond of brother and sister hood, the bond of believing there is a greater power than ourselves. And I don’t mean some government power; I mean the greatest power in all the universe the Creator Himself.
We also as human beings upon this earth have to recognize that there have always been those who suffer from an illness called greed. They have an appetite for gaining material wealth that is never satisfied. They have an appetite for land that is never satisfied. And the most common symptom of their illness is indifference to the suffering they cause with their quest. These people are the ones that have identified themselves as our common enemy. It is so terrible that under the guise of religion and shouting freedom they pit one people against another. This isn’t something new. All down through history it has taken place. All down through history there have been men, spiritual men, holy men, great thinkers and philosophers who have tried to unite us against this common enemy.
Today my brothers and sisters I want you to know that if nothing else if we don’t unite against the destruction against the Mother Earth we will have a common future that is void of clean air, clean water, and basic freedoms. We must reach our hands out to embrace others to the cause of life. We must do our best from where ever we are with whatever tools available to enhance and further our quality of life. We must find a way to break down the barriers that divide one people from another. We must find the things we have in common and find ways to solve our differences as basic humanity. We must evolve to a higher level of thinking or to as you might say a traditional level of thinking which obviously is superior to what they call progress today. Our traditional values taught us to live in harmony with Earth the greatest manifestation of the Creator that we have to relate to. Our traditions taught us to respect our bodies the greatest gift we have or possess as an individual. Our traditions taught us to preserve the environment for our children and all our future generations. As a member of the American Indian Movement these values are what we were about. Poverty isn’t solved by money, poverty is solved by attitude. The problems we have today among all our people are caused by attitude. They are caused by an attitude that was given to us in boarding schools and on reservations that were nothing more than concentration camps in the past. They are attitudes by people who came to us talking to us about God and wanting us to embrace their version of religion and as one brother said once, “They told us to bow our heads, and when we looked up our land was gone, our culture was gone, our children was gone, our way of life was gone.” And now the air itself is dwindling.
I have been in this cage for some 34 years and though I have been caged I have sought the spirit in prayer of our brother the eagle, I have sought to have an overview of things for as anyone can see I don’t have the freedom to examine life from a close perspective. And from this distant view, abstract view, this detached view, at times I get to see the destruction and divisiveness that these political powers that have scattered us for so long have involved themselves in promoting among our people. I don’t know if it is because I am older now or because my future is so uncertain or if through some spiritual inspiration I deeply want to say so much. I deeply want to move you to do something to save our earth and our children and our children’s future. I didn’t get to raise my children; I haven’t got to really know them or my children’s children. I may never get to, but I love them all just the same. And I love life as much as anyone on the outside. And I don’t know how long I will walk this cage. Some days I feel quite healthy and energized and some days I feel like the 64 year old man that I am. I’m always hopeful that I will be free at some point, perhaps in the latter part of July after my parole hearing, and perhaps I wont. The people that hold me, the FBI and the conglomerate corporations that have for so long controlled the resources of this country and others and for so long have done their best to stifle, to denigrate, and to vilify the voice of the oppressed are some of the most formidable well funded political people on Earth. I was told that the FBI themselves are some 10,000 strong.
I am but a common man, I am not a speaker but I have spoken. I am not all that tall but I have stood up. I am not a philosopher or poet or a singer or any of those things that particularly inspire people but the one thing that I am is the evidence that this country lied when they said there was justice for all. I am the evidence that they lied when they extradited me from Canada. I am the evidence that they can lie at your trial, they can manufacture evidence at your trial, they can intimidate witnesses at your trial, they can have back room conversations and agreements with the judge at your trial. I am the evidence that the attitude, the powers that be still hold us in a grip. They hold us in an emotional grip. They hold us in a poverty grip. They hold us in a cultural deprivation grip. I could go on and on about the things that go on that weigh so heavily against our people but the bottom line is my case is well documented by court after court after court, by hearing after hearing after hearing, by statement after statement after statement. And we as a people are the evidence that this country fails to keep its treaties, this country fails to keep its word. This country has failed to follow its own Constitution - the treaty between the people and the government. We are that evidence. I am nothing more than evidence. That is why people all over the world and here at home have supported the cause of justice in my case. In my particular situation I can’t say that there will ever be any level of justice.
They cannot give back the 34 years of life that have been taken from me. They cannot give back the life of Joe Stuntz that they took June 26th 1975. They cannot give back the lives of the 60 something people that they directly or indirectly caused the death of. They cannot give back the thousand upon thousands of Indian people that were killed and abused since the inception of this government. But the one thing we can do, we must do, is find a way to change their attitude. My brother Leonard Crow Dog once said, “If you want to change the white man you have to change his religion.” And religion is a word that means how you do something on a regular basis; most generally it is associated with your spirituality. Perhaps with global warming as it is and the changes in the weather patterns and the questionable future that faces the earth, they will start to listen. Maybe they will reach back and embrace the words of our people foretold again and again. We must live the way that the Earth will renew itself every spring. We must help them reach back. We must speak to them at every opportunity. We must make an effort to reach back ourselves to our own cultural values. And in doing so we can start to solve the many destructive challenges we face. We must more than ever before find a way to heal the wounds of our children and prevent the social illnesses that are so prevalent across our reservations and communities. We have the tools, we have the teachings, we have the philosophies, we have the culture, we have the artists, we have the singers, we have the philosophers, I could go on and on but in essence what I am trying to say is it is imperative that we bring together all our resources to enhance the future for our children in a way that they themselves can further the healthy teachings of our culture and way of life; and in doing so I have no doubt that we can change the world.
If I am freed next month or if I die in prison remember my words and remember we are evidence that the Creator made a beautiful people a people that respected the Earth and nature and each other. We are evidence on every level of goodness that when the Creator made us. He meant for us to be free. All our traditions have taught us this way. And even this very form of government that exists today was copied from our people. Our people with our foods, our medicines, belief in freedom and right to choose have influenced the world. Its too bad they didn’t adopt a healthy attitude that we had toward the Earth or an attitude of respect for us the first keepers of this portion of the Earth. If there is something about me that this government can point at and say is wrong or any person say is wrong I will by my own choice, if it proves to be fact, seek to fix it myself. But I also want to remind them the policies that have been in place for so long have made us what we are today. The policies that have been in place for so long, have created another reservation called Iraq and another reservation called Afghanistan, and the list goes on and on, you see what’s happening over there is what happened here and all down through North and South America.
I am just a common man and I am evidence that the powers that put me here would like to sweep under the carpet. The same way they did all of our past leaders, warriors and people they massacred. Just as at Wounded Knee the Fifth Cavalry sought its revenge for Custer’s loss and massacred some 300 Indian men women and children then gave out 23 Medals of Honor and swept the evidence of their wrongdoing aside. Perhaps this statement is somewhat more lengthy than the others I’ve made; perhaps it is some things I should have said before and perhaps more, if so I hope you will forgive me. I recently was thought to be having a heart attack because of pain in my chest. After having been beaten and kicked and stomped in the last year, I am not quite sure what was causing the pain. I had never been beaten, kicked and stomped like that before. And also I have never been 64 years old before. The one thing all this did for me is it really brought home my sense of mortality. I don’t want to spend the rest of my life in this prison. And I don’t want you to spend the rest of your life in some prison of the mind, heart or attitude. I want you to enjoy your life.
If nothing else give somebody a hug for me and say, “This is from Leonard.”

- - Comparison of OxySilver to Colloidal Silver
Photo: www.oxysilver.com/aff/Colloidal_Silver_Comparison.html
Above you can see the size and dispersion differences between OXYSILVER and a high quality colloidal silver. In practical terms, the infection elimination capability of OXYSILVER™ is superior. Here's the difference:
If you have a Petri dish with a million infectious bacteria, and you put in a drop of colloidal silver, each of its particles contact only 15 infectious bacteria and kill them. After this, the colloidal silver is exhausted. Its electron potentials for eliminating infectious microbes are no more.
But the OXYSILVER™ molecular cluster, in this revolutionary silver oxygen hydrosol, is hugely different. When you placed the same amount of a silver hydrosol in the same germ culture it will kill all the infectious bacteria and sterilize the entire Petri dish. This occurs for at least three reasons:
1)First, one of the key attributes of OXYSILVER™ is its covalent bonds between millioons of oxygen atoms and even more silver electrons. This bond raises the resonance energy of electro-conductive silver significantly. Hydrosols theoretically broadcast the anti-microbial energy of the silver through the water, This occurs, likewise, in the culture dish, and inside each germ. Pathogens typically can't stand this.
2)Add to this the incredibly tiny particle size of the silver in solution. The surface area on each germ is huge compared to these silver particles. Pathogens are therefore vulnerable to attack by the silver itself. The silver is so small, and again the attraction and germ surface area so great, these 'silver bullets' riddle the germ walls like a machine gun piercing the germs' armor-their surface membranes, This is how germs are destroyed en masse by silver hydrosols; and finally
3)Bioactivity is rated as the amount of the positive charge held by a particle (molecule) resulting from a greater number of protons than electrons in that molecule. The "best" Colloidal Silver molecule has only 15 more protons than electrons giving it a plus 15 rating. Theoretically, that means it can destroy fifteen bacteria, viruses, or fungi before loosing its bioactive properties. But each OXYSILVER™ cluster contains millions of positive charges, each extending the attack. This is another reason OXYSILVER™ is superior - its high bioactiviity levels are unmatched by any other Silver dietary supplement available at this time. http://OxySilver.com1292

Editor’s Notes:
This issue begins at a monumental moment. This week 50,000+ petitions will be filed for a referendum vote this November 3rd for a new 9/11 investigation. Senator Charles Schumer is almost on board, but it will be the voice of the people, not politicians, authorizing and conducting a real investigation into what happened that day. The official story-report is bogus. So far President Obama has been in lock-step with prior administrations. But the power is in the hands of NYC voters, like in the hands of the people of Iran, to demand honesty and integrity or exposure of elitist-controlled world government (corrupt) systems. A couple of Bilderberg articles should keep us shaking our heads, wondering where this recent pandemic came from.. Meanwhile heroes are coming out to bat for 9/11 truth. Steve Alten recently sent a note to various truth leaders and organizations:
“I am rewriting The SHELL GAME for the mass market paperback, to be released on September 11, 2009. I am rewriting the story a) to replace the GOP President (McKuin) from the hardback with a Democrat (Obama) and b) because I've learned a lot more about how the world works and treats 9/11 Truth...and I want to expose it all. I am dedicating the book to you. Please send me the names of individuals and/or organizations who deserve recognition. I will honor them as such. Or, if you would rather NOT be mentioned, tell me that as well. Oh yeah, there is also c) I want to exchange the Shell Game's hammer with a sledge hammer. And an $8 paperback can go places and reach far more people than a $28 hardback.”
Pretty cool, and this tidal wave for truth and freedom is arriving for a hopefully balanced 8th anniversary. This first item concludes with information from 911TV.org about a Steven Jones presentation DVD where he announced publication of his team’s discovery and proof of high-tech nanothermite.
Item 2 has more on the challenges before us in converting a personhood corporate doomsday lust scenario, into one with humane principle and perspective. Recently I posted an article called: Transforming Health-care and Criminal Justice on 911blogger. I believe we can help make such visionary projects happen, such as not-for-profit healthcare and prison systems, plus make it efficient with major employment opportunities for the good of society. But, first, we need to help NYC CAN investigate into what really happened on September 11, 2001. United even with only hundreds of contributors, we have already made a strategic strike against universal deception, crimes against humanity and nature. The third item is on Rumi, like taking a breathe of fresh air.
"I am so small.
How can this great love be inside me?
Look at your eyes. They're small.
But they see enormous things."
- Rumi

New York City Coalition for Accountability Now
11 June 2009
Finally, after more than a year of collecting signatures, we are ready to file the petition with the City Clerk's Office of New York City! In the week of June 15 we will be well over 50,000 signatures. With that number, we should be comfortably above the 30,000 valid signatures needed for City Council to consider the referendum. As of now our planned date of submission is Wednesday, June 17!
Now, for some important details if you are wondering how the process will work from here:
-City Council could okay the placement of the referendum on the ballot without NYC CAN needing to submit additional signatures.
-In the event that City Council vetoes it, or they take no action within 60 days, NYC CAN will come in with an additional 15,000 signatures to override City Council and guarantee the referendum goes on the ballot. These signatures will be collected over the next two months.
You may notice we don't have as many signatures by this point as we were anticipating. The job of a petitioner is physically strenuous and requires superb communication skills, so it has proven difficult to keep enough people on to build a staff big enough to collect 1,000 signatures per day. However, we ARE collecting 3,000 signatures per week and we are on our way to the 4,000 per week we need to successfully override City Council by the end of the summer. It just takes time. We are building a highly skilled staff who bring in only quality signatures. I want you to know that no money has been wasted - our payroll simply hasn't been as big as it could be, so we still have lots of money in the bank.
But, we need more. We have enough to get us to 60,000 signatures, but we really need another $25,000 to get us to 75,000. I know many of you have given before, so I don't want to ask you to give again unless you are truly able. The more important way you can help our fundraising effort is by talking to everyone you know and asking them to contribute. After filing the petition with the City Clerk next week, we anticipate it will become even easier to raise funds, especially from those who are able to give larger amounts. Please spread the word, it will help! If anyone wants to donate, send them to NYCCAN.org.
Lastly, we are assembling a legal team to lead the way once we have filed the petition. In the event that the City tries to block our effort by legal means, we will need the best people on our side. If you have suggestions or would like to offer your services, please contact us.
And, if you haven't yet watched our 45-second ad, go to: www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzC3QI8JenU&fmt=18
Thank you for your ongoing support.

- - 9/11 Truth Comes Home
By Frank Morales, June 2009
It’s late spring 2009 in New York City and an unannounced unidentified U.S. government plane streaks across town. Recollecting the horrors of 9/11, the incident scares the he-be-gee-bees out of the citizenry. Some miles to the north, U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer (D/NY), while attending an April 18th “Tour of the Battenkill” annual bicycle race in Cambridge, New York, responds to a question regarding efforts here in New York City to establish a new investigation of 9/11. Lending his qualified support to such an inquiry, he said that he was positively disposed toward a new investigation into the events of 9/11, though his support for such a probe would depend on the form it would take. “I think it’s not a bad idea,” he said. “You know, you’ve got to do it in a good way, but yes, I’d be for it.”
An associate of Schumer, New York State Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, also recommended a fresh look at the events of September 11, 2001. Commenting this past May 27th to a young reporter who himself had suffered the loss of a loved one during 9/11, the senator responded to the question of a new investigation by suggesting that “another review, or a fuller hearing” is warranted given the number of unanswered questions put forward by victims families since 9/11. “I think those questions should be answered,” she stated, going on to affirm that, “it’s important that every family member have every question answered.”

911TV.org announced the availability of a live mix DVD of Steve Jones announcing the publication of his team’s discovery and proof of high-tech nanothermite: “What in the World is High-tech Explosive Material Doing in the Dust Clouds Generated on 9/11/2001?” presented April 30th, 2009 in Sacramento, California.
Both the 1 hour edited version (ready for your public access station or show to your friends) and the complete talk with Q&A are included in this two DVD set which you can get at http://911TV.org. You can also get a hardcopy of this historic publication, in full color.
This is the “Loaded Gun of 9/11,” carefully researched and brilliantly presented. The implications of this new peer reviewed paper are profound.
Nanothermite, a highly engineered energetic nanocomposite, was conceived by 1990, and by 2000 had been weaponized, and manufactured in large quantities in top secret military laboratories. This nano form of thermite does not just burn extremely hot, it explodes!
Steven also updates us on various facets of the quest to repudiate the “official conspiracy theory” about 9/11, and describes current efforts to create a legitimate investigation with real subpoena power.
Your donation makes it possible for 911TV to continue bringing you professional quality video from the 9/11 Truth movement. You can get this two DVD set and the hardcopy at 911TV.org

Pennsylvania Town Fights Big Coal on Mining Rights
by Jon Hurdle
Published June 15, 2009 by Reuters
TAYLORSTOWN, Pennsylvania - A small Pennsylvania town is trying to ban coal mining in a battle being played out across the state as rural communities try to assert control over mining, gas drilling and other businesses.
Blaine Township, a community of 600 about 40 miles southwest of Pittsburgh, hopes to trigger a legal battle that could determine the rights of municipalities throughout the United States to control corporate activity.
Some legal experts say the township is highly unlikely to win that fight. For now the dispute is in federal district court, where major energy companies have sued the township over three ordinances that would ban coal mining and require companies in any business to disclose their activities to local officials.
Penn Ridge Coal LLC, a unit of Alliance Resource Partners, and Allegheny Pittsburgh Coal Co., a unit of Allegheny Energy, say Blaine's laws violate their corporate rights.
The companies say the ordinances would prevent them from mining 10.6 million tons of recoverable coal beneath the township -- enough to supply electricity for 2 million people for a year.
The township has gone further than any of the 120 U.S. municipalities -- most of them in Pennsylvania -- that have passed ordinances to curb corporate activity such as factory farming or spreading sewage sludge, said its lawyer, Tom Linzey of the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund.
Of three townships sued by corporations over their ordinances, only Blaine has refused to back down, Linzey said.
Elsewhere in Pennsylvania, towns are resisting efforts by energy companies to extract natural gas from the massive Marcellus Shale formation amid fears that toxic chemicals used in drilling are contaminating ground water and endangering human health.
CREEKS DIVERTED
In Blaine, residents are seeking to prevent coal mining -- which they expect to begin there in 2011 -- because they fear it will ruin their houses and disrupt water supplies, as they say it has in surrounding areas.
They want to block longwall mining, a technique that rips tons of coal from underground without putting anything in its place, causing the land above to sag. The practice, which has been used in coal-rich southwest Pennsylvania since the 1970s, has cracked the walls, roofs and basements of homes and opened fissures in the land, diverting or draining creeks and ponds.
In neighboring Morris Township, Tammy Bowman pointed to a pile of broken wood and concrete -- all that's left of an outbuilding she said was destroyed by shifting ground from mining beneath her 19th century farmhouse.
"It just started to drop and drop," she said. "It got so bad, you couldn't even walk in the door."
One section of her house is held up with mechanical jacks.
Near the village of Graysville, the 62-acre (25-hectare) Duke Lake, once used for fishing and boating, now sits empty after the shifting ground opened a crack in its retaining wall, environmentalists say.
Blaine's three ordinances, passed in 2006, 2007 and 2008, also assert that communities have a right under the U.S. Constitution to control business within their boundaries and that corporations do not have constitutional rights as "persons" to sue municipalities for passing laws that would hurt corporate interests.
"This illegitimate bestowal of civil and political rights upon corporations prevents the administration of laws within Blaine Township and usurps basic human and constitutional rights guaranteed to the people of Blaine Township," says the township's Corporate Rights Ordinance of 2006.
To implement the ordinances, township supervisors are now campaigning for "home rule," a legal code that transfers some powers from state to local control and is commonly used to raise taxes or increase the number of supervisors on a board.
ESTABLISHING HOME RULE
Blaine supervisors want to use home rule to establish what they say is the township's constitutional right to control corporate activity. Voters on May 19 approved a plan to set up a commission to study the proposal and recommend whether to adopt it.
A third lawsuit has been brought by Range Resources, a natural gas company, asking the court to invalidate Blaine's demand that corporations disclose their activities.
Penn Ridge Coal and Allegheny Pittsburgh Coal are asking U.S. Judge Donetta Ambrose of the Western District of Pennsylvania to declare Blaine's ordinances invalid and unenforceable.
In April, Judge Ambrose denied the township's motion to dismiss the case. She is expected to rule late this year.
Linzey predicted the case will eventually go to the U.S. Supreme Court because it pits energy companies who want to exploit one of America's richest coal seams against residents who are determined to resist what they see as rapacious mining.
He conceded the court is unlikely to overturn more than 100 years of established law that gives corporations rights as "persons" under the constitution, but he said the expected outcome would become a springboard for a popular campaign for a constitutional amendment to strip corporations of those rights.
Blaine's supervisors said they want to establish a principle of local self-government that will inspire other communities.
"Who dictates how we are going to live here?" asked Board spokesman Michael Vacca. "Should it not be us?"

- - Russia warns US on missile shield
June 12, 2009
MOSCOW: Russia said on Thursday that the United States must halt its plans to deploy a missile shield in eastern Europe before the two countries can start a full-fledged dialogue on missile defence.
A Russian foreign ministry spokesman, Andrei Nesterenko, also insisted that Moscow would not cooperate in the Pentagon’s plans to site an anti-missile radar in the Czech Republic and interceptor missiles in Poland.
“We cannot agree to cooperate on the creation of sites which in their essence are designed to oppose Russia’s strategic deterrent forces. No one will do something that harms himself,” Nesterenko said.
“Only a US withdrawal from plans to place the so-called third position area of strategic missile defence in Europe can allow full-fledged dialogue to start on issues of cooperation in the reaction to probable missile threats.”
The term ‘third position area’ refers to the US plans in eastern Europe. The previous two areas of the planned multibillion-dollar missile shield are in the US states of Alaska and California. However Nesterenko also voiced hope that a deal could eventually be reached: “We expect that on matters of missile defence, in the end it will be possible to find a common denominator and reach a mutually agreeable decision.”
Nesterenko’s comments on Thursday were in response to Russian media reports that the two countries had made progress on the issue and that the United States might even situate elements of its missile shield in Russia.
The reports, which appeared in multiple Russian newspapers, were based on testimony by US Defence Secretary Robert Gates this week before US senators. But a spokesperson for Gates told AFP that the Pentagon chief’s comments had been misconstrued and that the reported plans to put US missile-shield facilities in Russia were a misinterpretation.
Moscow has reacted angrily to the US missile defence plans, saying they are a threat to Russian security, although Washington says they are not directed against Russia and are meant to protect against ‘rogue states’ like Iran.
Former US president George W Bush strongly backed the missile shield, but the new administration of President Barack Obama has slowed down implementation of the project

'Boom and bust' of deforestation
By Richard Black
Environment correspondent, BBC News
Cutting down Amazon forest for cattle and soy does not bring long-term economic progress, researchers say.
A study of 286 Amazon municipalities found that deforestation brought quick benefits that were soon reversed.
Writing in the journal Science, the researchers say the deforestation cycle helps neither people nor nature.
They suggest that mechanisms to reward people in poorer countries for conserving rainforest could change this "lose-lose-lose" situation.

JIM LEHRER: And finally tonight, a poet who speaks across centuries. Jeffrey Brown narrates our report by independent producer David Grubin.
JEFFREY BROWN: With more and more American soldiers arriving in Afghanistan each day coming face to face with a culture and a people they know little about, it may come as a surprise that one of the best loved poets in America is the national poet of Afghanistan, a 13th century Sufi mystic named Jalaluddin Rumi.
COLEMAN BARKS, poet and translator: "All day I think about it, then at night I say it. Where did I come from, and what am I supposed to be doing? I have no idea."
JIM LEHRER: The poet Coleman Barks has been translating Rumi for more than 36 years. In a 1994 PBS documentary, he read to music by the Paul Winter Consort.
COLEMAN BARKS: "The day is coming"...
JIM LEHRER: Rumi, born in northern Afghanistan, wrote thousands and thousands of ecstatic poems traditionally spoken wit
