Quote of the day (Thanks Henri):
Great Britain: Financial crisis: Stock market suffers its worst
fall in history
The UK stock market has suffered its worst one-day fall in
history as the banking crisis intensified.
By Robert Winnett, Deputy Political Editor

A statement by Alistair Darling, the Chancellor, to Parliament
failed to calm nerves with the stock market taking a further dive
as he spoke Photo: GETTY
The FTSE-100 index of Britain's biggest companies dropped by
391.06 points - its steepest ever fall - to end the day down 7.9
per cent.
The FTSE's tumble was mirrored across Europe, as markets in
France, Germany, Italy and Spain all recorded heavy falls.
On Wall Street, the panic drove the Dow Jones Industrial Average
down through the 10,000 level for the first time in four
years.The mild euphoria that greeted the passage of the $700bn
bail-out of Wall Street on Friday evaporated as traders digested
the more bad news from Europe.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell as much as 800 points
during the session, slipping below the key psychological level of
10,000 for the first time since 2004.
Second quote of the day (Thanks EH):
My Fellow American:
The man pictured here is Frank Marshall Davis, known in the media
as a
mentor for Barack Obama. A new book, The Dream Begins, claims
that Davis was
"demonized" as a Communist but that he helped
"shape" Obama's views. I will leave
it to you to decide what influence he had over Obama. But I do
have the
shocking truth about Davis. He was not only a documented member
of the Communist
Party USA, but a sex pervert, homosexual and pornographer.
You see, I have the entire 600-page FBI file on Davis. I also
have excerpts
from and an analysis of Davis's pornographic Sex Rebel book.
When you read our reports on Davis, you will be absolutely
astounded. You
will ask yourself: why haven't I been told this until now? Why
the cover-up?

(AIM) Report.
Third quote of the
day:
"A bureaucrat is the most despicable of men, though he is
needed as vultures
are needed, but one hardly admires vultures whom bureaucrats so
strangely
resemble. I have yet to meet a bureaucrat who was not petty,
dull, almost
witless, crafty or stupid, an oppressor or a thief, a holder of
little
authority in which he delights, as a boy delights in possessing a
vicious
dog. Who can trust such creatures?" ---Marcus Tullius Cicero

Austrian teens visit Auschwitz - then vote for Joerg Haider - By
Michal
Levertov, Haaretz Correspondent
An activist in an Austrian organization commemorating the
'Holocaust', who
traveled last month with a group of 16-year-olds from his country
to visit
the Auschwitz Nazi death camp in Poland, found to his horror that
the
youngsters were planning to vote for the extreme right wing
political
parties in the Austrian elections.
Fifth quote of the
day:
The world's first seismograph -- Chinese, of course -- made use
of animals, not real ones but models. Designed and built in the
second century AD, by which time the Chinese had a thousand years
of earthquake data on record, this remarkable gadget consisted of
a jar containing a pendulum connected to articulated dragon's
jaws clamped onto a small ball. When a shock wave hit the
pendulum, one of the jaws would open, dropping its ball into the
open mouth of a toad below. Whether it fell to left or right
indicated which direction the shock had come from. European
science was unable to invent anything as efficient as this until
the 19th century. --Guy Playfair, Cycles of Heaven, 146
Sixth quote of the
day:
In April 1946 RCA Communications Inc set up a small asronomical
lab on the roof of its main office building in central Manhattan.
John Henry Nelson, an engineer who had been with the firm for 25
years ... was given a six-inch refracting telescope and told to
study the sun. It had been known for 20 years that its behavior
could somehow affect radio communications from time to time, even
to the point where the company -- the world's largest short-wave
radio communications organization -- would be temporarily out of
business, as magnetic storms and other forms of solar
interference made it impossible for their messages to get to
their destinations. Company chiefs knew this happened, but they
wanted to know more about it how it happened -- and especially
when it would happen next.
... On April 12, 1951, RCA Communications issued a press release
announcing that evidence had been found pointing to a direct
relationship between magnetic storms on earth, (ie, bad radio
conditions) and the positions of the planets, with respect both
to each other and the sun. Thanks to its new system of
prediction, RCA stated it was now achieving 85% accuracy in its
daily forecast service. Moreover, Nelson could tell when good
days were coming as well as bad; when two or more planets were
spaced 120 degrees apart, conditions were likely to be good while
angles of zero degrees, 90 degrees or 180 degrees meant trouble.
These were the 'maverick' angles.
The sextile (60 degrees) and the trine (120 degrees) have been
among the favorable angles, or aspects, of astrology since time
immemorial, just as the conjunction, square, and opposition (zero
degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees) have been the unfavorable ones.
No astrologer seems to know why, and before Nelson nobody had
ever produced scientifically acceptable evidence for such
notions. For that matter, it had never been shown beyond any
reasonable doubt that there was any connection between planetary
positions and any terrestrial phenomenon. We cannot help
wondering why it was left to a non-astrologer and
non-professional astronomer to make this discovery.
--ibid, 29-32

Moon's Day 2008-10-06:
Joke of the day (Thaks Rat):
A surgeon went to
check on his blonde patient after an operation. She
was awake, so he examined her then asked if she had any
questions.
She said, "Yeah - how long will it be before I am able to
have a normal
sex life again doctor?'
The surgeon seemed to pause, which alarmed the girl.
'What's the matter, Doctor? I'll be all right, won't I?'
He replied, 'Yes, you'll be fine. It's just that no one has ever
asked
me that after a tonsillectomy.'
Second joke of the
day (Thanks EH):

>
>He repeated 'A Jewish bra. She said to tell you that

>
>'Ah, now I remember,' said the saleslady. 'We don't

>'A Jewish bra,' she replied, ' makes mountains out of

Third joke of the
day (Thanks Rat):
A cop was on his
horse waiting to cross the street, when a little girl
on her new shiny bike stopped beside him.
'Nice bike,' the cop said. 'Did Santa bring it to you?'
'Yes Sir,' the little girl said, 'he sure did!'
The cop looked the bike over and handed the girl a $5 ticket for
a
safety violation.
The cop said, 'Next year, tell Santa to put a reflector light on
the
back of it!'
The young girl looked up at the cop and said,'Nice horse you've
got
there Sir. Did Santa bring it to you?'
Playing along with the girl, he chuckled and answered, 'Yes, he
sure did!'
The little girl looked up at the cop and said, 'Next year tell
Santa;
The dick goes underneath the horse, not on top!'
Quote of the day:
When a visitor
noticed a horseshoe nailed above the door of physics Nobelist
Niels Bohr's house, he asked Prof Bohr if he believed in the
efficacy of such objects to bring good luck. Bohr denied that he
did, but told the visitor that "They are supposed to bring
good luck whether one believes in them or not." --Guy
Playfair and Scott Hill, Cycles of Heaven, 1978: 22

Plans for a pan-European response to the global financial crisis
lay in tatters last night as Greece followed Ireland in
unilaterally guaranteeing all bank deposits.
Amid reports that Greek depositors were rushing to withdraw their
savings, Greece's Cabinet agreed to protect all deposits whatever
their size. Previously the maximum guaranteed was €20,000
(£15,600).

Fri, 10/03/2008 - 19:23 dlindorff
The grassroots rebellion that led to the House's rejection of the
Bush Administration's Wall Street bailout bill on Monday flamed
out on Friday, overwhelmed by a massive lobbying campaign by Wall
Street and by a propaganda push in the corporate media in favor
of passage.
The House, which had voted 228 to 205 against a bailout at the
beginning of the week, voted 283-171 in favor of an even more
expensive plan only four days later, after the Senate passed a
bill containing over $100 billion in tax breaks (mostly for the
wealthy), and after House leaders added a bunch of those infamous
"earmarks" to buy the votes of reluctant House members.
(Sen. John McCain, who has vowed as president to veto any bill
containing earmarks, voted for this whopper of a bill, earmarks
galore and all.)
Fifth quote of the
day (Thanks Eileen):
As LaRouche laid
out in his Oct. 1 webcast, the result of the bailout will
be to bring on devastating hyperinflation, and an explosion
within the
American population, akin to that which characterized the French
Revolution.
"Don't you see the hatred you are building up against
Washington, in the
people of the United States?'' he asked.

Seventh quote of
the day:
For 700 years the
Emerald Isle was under the thumb of the British, who exploited
the Irish unmercifully. During those 700 years there was a
continuous cycle of rebellion against the Brits, and a crushing
of those rebellions. The end of this cycle was the Easter
Uprising in 1919, when rebels took over the Dublin post office,
and the Brits leveled it. Then, finally, the Irish got smart.
Twelve of them got together -- they called themselves the
Apostles -- and began a program of assassination against the
Brits carried out with handguns. The Brits were at an extreme
disadvantage, because everyone was a suspect, and anyone could
carry a pistol. The upshot was Irish Independence, dispatched
with just a suitcase of pistols.
The authorities are well aware of how Irish independence was won.
It is for this reason that they are desperate to implement gun
control. --Unknown
[Birdman Comment: For all those guys and gals into violent
revolution, this seems like the germ of a good idea. But the
differences today are profound. For one thing, the Irish hated
the Brits, whereas today, not only is it difficult to identify
the enemy, but people are ignorant about the circumstances of our
enslavement. That's why a violent revolution will fail unless
people are educated first.]
Eighth quote of the
day:
"A dowser will
be successful", [Zaboj] Harvalik says, "The more he is
able to detach himself emotionally from the dowsing activity or
from any other exciting thoughts." Three hundred years ago
another dowser, William Cookworthy, made the same point -- long
before anything was known about brain rhythms. "The rod must
be held with indifference" he wrote, "For if the mind
is occupied by doubts, reasoning or other operation that engages
the animal spirits, it will divert their powers from being
exerted in this process." This, he said, was why best
results came from peasants, women and children, who hold the rod
"without puzzling their minds with doubts and
reasonings." --Guy Playfair, Cycles of Heaven, Avon 1979: 94
[Birdman comment: Mr Playfair apparently has not heard of
political correctness. Looks like he will have to change his
name.]
Ninth quote of the
day:
In reflecting on Dr
Toben's arrest, and of similar ones that have occurred in the
past -- Germar Rudolf, Ernst Zundel and several others -- it is
clear that the Jewish strategy to suppress Holo denial is not to
depend solely on eliminating free speech laws in other countries,
but is also to use the strong laws against Holo denial in Germany
in combination with the ability of EU laws to reach out and
arrest someone wherever they may be and prosecute them under the
lowest-common-denominator German law. But if Jews can use a
multiple strategy to protect their favorite myth, then the same
sort of strategy can be used -- and indeed is being used -- to
protect the freedom of whites. In particular, while free speech
is well-protected by law in America, the political system makes
it difficult for those who want to change the system. Similarly,
while speech is much restricted in Britain, its propotional
representation system allows for much easier entry of change
agents into the politics. Accordingly, we see that each system,
while imperfect in one way or another, nevertheless presents
unique opportunities for forwarding white interests, and thus
should be exploited to that end. -Birdman

House limits constituent e-mails to prevent crash By Jordy Yager

amount of mail being submitted on the financial bailout bill.
Second quote of the
day (Thanks Wifey):
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) -- A federal judge on Friday struck down an
Orlando ordinance that barred large group feedings for homeless
at downtown area parks.
In his ruling, U.S. District Judge Gregory A. Presnell said the
city ordinance violates the constitutional rights of activists
who want to feed the homeless.
Activists who had been feeding the homeless in Lake Eola Park
sued the city in 2006 over the ordinance passed that year.
Attorney Jacqueline Dowd, who represented plaintiffs including
First Vagabonds Church of God and Orlando Food Not Bombs, said
they were "thrilled" with the ruling.

Fourth quote of the
day:
To: William Raiford, Editor, Columbia Military Academy Alumni
Association Bugle
Date: 02 Oct 2008
Note: CMA was Birdman's high school alma mater
Dear Bill:
You might be interested in posting the following item in the next
Bugle. It is an adjunct to the obit of Jackson Stephens, aka Jack
T Stephens, which you published recently. You may remember that
CMAA had its hand out to Mr Stephens for funding a guardhouse CMA
museum -- a project objected to by me in view of Jack's
odoriferous career. The way I figure it, however, even if Jack
were a rogue, he was such a distinguished rogue that I think he
at least deserves some recognition for it. Here is the item I
suggest you publish:
"George Bush and Bill Clinton both had considerable
connections with the the BCCI [Bank of Credit and Commerce
International, more popularly known as Bank of Crooks and
Criminals International], among them one Jackson Stephens, owner
of Stephens Inc, a big investment bank based in Little Rock AR,
the home of Bill Clinton. Stephens was one of the founders of the
BCCI. He had connections with the company called Harken Energy
and arranged a loan for them from a Swiss bank affiliated with
the BCCI. This would have greatly pleased George Bush Jr, the
President's son, who sat on the Harken board. Another son, Jeb
Bush, also had numerous dealings with the BCCI. He was often seen
in the bank's Miami office, and George Bush's deputy campaign
manager, James Lake, worked for a major owner of the BCCI at the
same time. When Bush's 'opponent', Bill Clinton, ran for
President, his main financial backer was Jackson Stephens, who
made the donations via his Worthen National Bank which was
connected to the BCCI. Stephens was implicated in deals in which
the BCCI secretly and illegally took over the First American Bank
of Washington and others. This was the man who funded the
President." --David Icke, And the Truth Shall Set You Free,

Woden's Day 2008-10-01:
Joke(s) of the day (Thanks EH):
* RIVER WALK
There's this blonde out for a walk. She comes to a river and sees
another
blonde on the opposite bank. 'Yoo-hoo!' she shouts, 'How can I
get to the other
side?'
The second blonde looks up the river then down the river and
shouts back,
'You ARE on the other side.'
* AT THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE
A gorgeous young redhead goes into the doctor's office and said
that her
body hurt wherever she touched it.
'Impossible!' says the doctor. 'Show me.'
The redhead took her finger, pushed on her left shoulder and
screamed, then
she pushed her elbow and screamed even more. She pushed her knee
and
screamed;
likewise she pushed her ankle and screamed. Everywhere she
touched made her
scream.
The doctor said, 'You're not really a redhead, are you?
'Well, no' she said, 'I'm actually a blonde.'
'I thought so,' the doctor said. 'Your finger is broken.'
* FINALLY, THE BLONDE JOKE TO END ALL BLONDE JOKES!
A girl was visiting her blonde friend, who had acquired two new
dogs, and
asked her what their names were. The blonde responded by saying
that one was
named Rolex and one was named Timex. Her friend said, 'Whoever
heard of
someone naming dogs like that?'
'HELLLOOOOOOO......,' answered the blond. 'They're watch-dogs!'
Second joke (?) of
the day:
Ray Nagin, the

Karl Rove—Architect Of The Minority Mortgage Meltdown
By Steve Sailer
Whose fault is it?
Last week, the mainstream conservative punditry finally picked up
an idea I had first put forward in August 2007 (and developed
with more detail last June): that an underestimated factor the
financial crisis set off by the mortgage meltdown is our reigning
ideology of multiculturalism and diversity.
In other words, this is a minority mortgage meltdown—and it
may trigger a Diversity Recession.
Unfortunately, not having studied the question as long as I had,
some of the conservative talking heads tended to put forward
naïve, self-serving, or unpersuasive versions of this
theory,—such as that the banking crash wasn't the fault of
greed in the financial industry, it was the result of the
Democrats in Congress passing the anti-redlining Community
Reinvestment Act in 1977.
The reality is that blame is very widely shared: among Democrats
and Republicans, businesspeople and politicians, Congress and the
Executive Branch, borrowers and lenders, and whites, blacks and
Hispanics.
There's one man, however, who has so far escaped any blame. Few
have realized something that turns out to have been staring us in
the face all along: that the mortgage mess was, in sizable
measure, an outgrowth of the primary political goal of the Bush
Administration.
That man's name is Karl Rove.
And the primary political goal of President George W. Bush's
political strategist: to bring Hispanics into the Republican
Party.
As you'll recall, Rove's best-known tactic to appeal to Latino
voters was repeatedly pushing "comprehensive immigration
reform" (i.e., an amnesty for illegal immigrants).
Rove, though had other arrows in his quiver. One was a plan to
turn Hispanics into Republicans by providing them with loose
credit so they could become homeowners.
Second quote of the
day:
Vaslav Fomich
Nijinsky ... was a Russian ballet dancer and choreographer of
Polish descent. Nijinsky was one of the most gifted male dancers
in history, and he grew to be celebrated for his virtuosity and
for the depth and intensity of his characterizations. He could
perform en pointe, a rare skill among male dancers at the time
(Albright, 2004) and his ability to perform seemingly
gravity-defying leaps was also legendary. ...
Nijinski took the creative reins and choreographed ballets, which
slew boundaries and stirred controversy. His ballets were
L'après-midi d'un faune (The Afternoon of a Faun, based on
Claude Debussy's Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune) (1912),
Jeux (1913), Till Eulenspiegel (1916) and Le Sacre du Printemps
(The Rite of Spring, with music by Igor Stravinsky (1913).
Nijinsky created choreography that exceeded the limits of
traditional ballet and propriety. For the first time, his
audiences were experiencing the futuristic, new direction of
modern dance. The radically angular movements expressed the heart
of Stravinsky's radically modern scores. Unfortunately,
Nijinski's new trends in dance caused a riotous reaction at the
Théâtre de Champs-Elysées when it premiered in Paris. As the
title character in L'après-midi d'un faune the final tableau (or
scene), during which he mimed masturbation with the scarf of a
nymph, caused a scandal; he was accused by half of Paris of
obscenity, but defended by such artists as Rodin, Odilon Redon
and Proust.
--http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaslav_Nijinsky
Third quote of the
day (Thanks Donaldo):
You are a babe in
the woods when it comes to automatic weapons. All common
military weapons also appear on the civilian market in
semi-automatic form.
The AK-47 and M-16 are two examples. By changing internal parts,
they can
be made full auto. These parts are hard to find but can be made
in a
machine shop.
Automatic weapons are nearly useless for civilian purposes. Put
that old
Marine Gunny Sergeant in for QOD:"No matter where you go,
there is always
more air than meat."-unknown gunny . Only the government can
afford the
ammo for a machine gun. At a cyclic rate of fire of 600 rounds
per minute,
they go thru about $240 of ammunition per minute.
[Birdman comment: The point of the machine gun -- at least
when it is used to full advantage -- is to put a large number of
bullets into a small space in a small time window, with the
intention of making it more likely that you will hit your
target(s) with at least one. It is not to sit behind a machine
gun and rattle off shots, like they do in da mooviez. The utility
of a machine gun for civilians, then, is to wipe out the SWAT
team that is after you before they can figure out what hit them.]
Fourth quote of the
day (Thanks Henri):
And after the
fiasco of the abuse of federal troops in the South following the
War Between the States, the doctrine of Posse Comitatus was
enacted into law. The Wikipedia online encyclopedia says this
about Posse Comitatus:
"The Act prohibits most members of the federal uniformed
services ... from exercising nominally state law enforcement
police or peace officer powers that maintain 'law and order' on
non-federal property. . . .
"The statute generally prohibits federal military personnel
and units of the United States National Guard under federal
authority from acting in a law enforcement capacity within the
United States, except where expressly authorized by the
Constitution or Congress. . . .
"The Posse Comitatus Act and the Insurrection Act
substantially limit the powers of the federal government to use
the military for law enforcement."
The Posse Comitatus Act was passed in 1878 and was universally
accepted as being a very just--and extremely important--law of
the land.
But in 2006, President George W. Bush pushed a
Republican-controlled Congress to pass the John Warner National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007, which included a
section titled "Use of the Armed Forces in major public
emergencies." This section provided that "The President
may employ the armed forces to restore public order in any State
of the United States the President determines...." In
effect, this bill obliterated Posse Comitatus.
When the Democrat-controlled Congress passed the 2008 National
Defense Authorization Act, however, the restrictions of Posse
Comitatus were restored. But when President Bush signed the Act
into law, he attached a signing statement (Executive Order)
indicating that the Executive Branch did not feel bound by the
changes enacted by the repeal. Translated: President Bush wiped
out Posse Comitatus by Executive Order.
Now, just a few months after expunging Posse Comitatus, President
Bush has authorized an Army brigade to be assigned the new role
of dealing exclusively with domestic law enforcement and related
duties. This evokes serious questions.

Fifth quote of the
day (On the auto trigger puller - Thanks Laine):
You will find a
device which you are describing here:
http://www.ar15.com/content/products/triggers/gat/
There are a variety of mfr's with different products. I've known
about the Hellfire Trigger Activation System for at least 20
years.
As far as making a semi-auto into a full-auto, I believe it's not
that difficult. There is even a discussion about it here:
http://www.thehighroad.org/archive/index.php/t-146191.html It's
one part on an AR-15 called an auto sear, and they can be bought
or made. I personally wouldn't do it, as gun law violations are
how the Patriots lose their freedom to the Dad Gummit. If they
can get us on nothing else, they try the gun laws, all of which
are unconstitutional.
"Bullet hoses" are impressive; however, aiming them
accurately is not all that easy. At 600-700 rounds per minute,
the recoil can really make your aim walk off the target. I went
to Front Sight near Las Vegas, a purpose-built community
dedicated to shooting and self-defense, and spent a day shooting
a full-auto 9mm Uzi. The first thing the owner, Dr. Ignatius
Piazza, did was to show us how hard it was to fire accurately
emptying a full magazine while "spraying" a target in a
right to left motion ala Hollywood movies. He has had years of
practice, yet he was all over the map.
The advantage of full auto is being able to fire short bursts,
not doing "spray and pray," and thereby running up a
substantial ammo bill. The instructor taught us trigger control.
We kept it on full auto all the time, yet I was able to shoot
just 2 or 3 round bursts at a time, doubling the firepower of a
semi-auto.
Machine guns can be bought in various states that allow it.
AZ/NV/AL are some. The federal law will allow you to own one,
provided that you pay the gummint the $200 tax. You can buy Uzis
starting at $3K, not that you would want to.

I was glued to CNBC watching the markets in free fall after the
House
vote not to authorize the bailout. The commentators kept
repeating
that nothing is likely to get done until Thursday at the earliest
because of the ''holidays''. They kept repeating '' the holidays
''
with no suggestion that these were Jewish holidays. Whatever your
feelings about the bailout this was a significant and no
doubt deliberate ommision...Think about it; nothing will get
done...the economy is on hold and government will be a a
standstill
because of a holiday observed by 2% of the population.

Jewish Rabbis Praise President Ahmadinejad Of Iran
QUOTE
After his virulently an [sic] anti-Zionist speech at the United
Nations General Assembly on Tuesday drew reactions the world
over, a group of Neturei Karta rabbis met in Manhattan on
Wednesday with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Neturei
Karta is a fringe ultra-Orthodox group formally created in 1935,
that opposes Zionism and calls for the dismantling of the State
of Israel on the grounds that they believe Jews are forbidden to
have their own state until the coming of the Messiah.........
Rabbi Yisroel David Weiss, who took part in the meeting, told
Ynet the encounter was "very successful" and was
conducted in a warm and friendly environment.
Rabbi Weiss said the delegation thanked Ahmadinejad for his
positive treatment of Iran's Jewish community. "We know he
is not an enemy to the Jews, he has a Jewish community in his
country that he honors, defends and supports." The rabbis
added that Ahmadinejad "is not against the Jews, but against
the Zionist regime.".........
According to the rabbi, the Iranian president does not deny the
Jewish Holocaust, but rather resists what he calls Zionist
invasion and occupation of the land of Israel and the suffering
caused to the Palestinians. "The Zionists use the Holocaust
as an excuse for their crimes," said Weiss.

understand Jewish law presumably. Thousands of Jews live in Iran

Federal District Court Obstructs Lawsuits
Challenging Authority for Bailouts
Judiciary Scuttles Motions Demanding U.S.
Produce Evidence of Constitutional Authority
Late last week, WTP Chairman and constitutional activist Robert
Schulz
filed a federal lawsuit in United States District Court in Albany
seeking to halt the execution of the emergency bailout of Wall
Street
insurance giant American Insurance Group, AIG. On Wednesday,
Schulz
filed a second federal lawsuit seeking to block the larger Wall
Street
bank bailout currently being negotiated through the U.S.
Congress.
Yesterday, while ignoring the dissimilar legal issues raised in
the two
lawsuits, the U.S. District Court issued an Order combining the
two
cases into a single case and denying the applications for
injunctive
relief requested. The Court, in effect, ducked a judicial (and
very
public) hearing to examine the critical legal question at the
heart of
the bailouts: What Constitutional authority exists for the U.S.
Government or Federal Reserve to use public (taxpayer) funds for
definitively private purposes?
Again, what legal authority allows the U.S. Government to
directly
purchase the distressed assets and contracts of privately owned
Wall
Street firms for the express purpose of mitigating their private
investment risks and losses?

Tenth quote of the day
(Thanks Sir Peter):
THE SOLUTION IS SO SIMPLE IT'S ALMOST CHILDLIKE: Think about it!!
Set up a system and formula to pay the $700 Billion to the
American taxpayers directly and immediately (it's all their
money.not the Mega Banks and Bankers). say based on the amount of
income tax they paid for the last three years or four or five
years on an equal percentage basis. AND THIS MEANS ONLY THOSE
THAT PAID INCOME TAX.
This $700 Billion will give plenty of money to spend buying
homes, cars and other items and companies that are failing now
will be saved. Banks will survive also; only the one's that
caused this by illegal means should be brought to task and those
prosecuted for any laws broken.
If any Congressmen have thought of this simple solution it
certainly has not been mentioned in or on the controlled
media.nor will it be.because it is simple, sound and the honest
way to do it.but it does not put billions back into the hands of
thieves to just do it all over again with only them profiting.

heart.
'As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as
taking sides,' Obama said. 'There are a lot of people in the
world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And
the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs
bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less
parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like to Teach
the World to Sing.' If that were our anthem, then I might salute
it.'

Navajo, Hopi and Lakota delegation warned Lehman Brothers of
consequences of mining sacred Black Mesa
By Brenda Norrell
http://bsnorrell.blogspot.com/2008/09/navajo-hopi-and-lakota-delegation.html
UN OBSERVER & International Report
NEW YORK -- A delegation of Navajo, Hopi and Lakota warned Lehman
Brothers stockholders of the dire consequences of their actions
in 2001. In a rare move, censored by most media, the Navajo, Hopi
and Lakota delegation warned Lehman Brothers, after it acquired
the financial interests of Peabody Coal, of the spiritual
consequences of mining coal on sacred Black Mesa and the
aftermath of Peabody Coal's machinations that led to the
so-called Navajo Hopi Land Dispute.
Lehman Brothers is now in the midst of financial collapse, with
its bankruptcy producing a rippling effect throughout the world's
economy.
At the time of the Lehman Brothers stockholders meeting in 2001,
Arlene Hamilton bought two shares of stocks in Lehman Brothers to
pave the way for the delegation to address the stockholders.
Hamilton said her life was threatened because of this action.
Shortly afterwards, Hamilton was killed in a car crash. Longtime
Navajo relocation resister Roberta Blackgoat died in San
Francisco at Hamilton's memorial.

Iranians mock 'Holocaust' on annual Jerusalem Day
Sep 26 11:29 AM US/Eastern
Iranians chanted "Death to Israel" on Friday as
Islamist students
unveiled a book mocking the Holocaust in an Al-Quds (Jerusalem)
Day annual
parade to show solidarity with the Palestinians.
And in Gaza City, the Islamist Hamas movement that has ruled the
impoverished Palestinian territory since June 2007 marked the day
by calling
for more suicide attacks on Israel.
The book "Holocaust," published by members of Iran's
Islamist Basij
militia, features dozens of cartoons and sarcastic commentary.
Education Minister Alireza Ali-Ahmadi attended the official
launch of
the book in Tehran's Palestine Square.
The cover shows a Jew with a crooked nose and dressed in
traditional
garb drawing outlines of dead bodies on the ground.
Inside, bearded Jews are shown leaving and re-entering a gas
chamber
with a counter that reads the number 5,999,999.
Another illustration depicts Jewish prisoners entering a furnace
in a
Nazi extermination camp and leaving from the other side as
gun-wielding
"terrorists."
Yet another shows a patient draped in an Israeli flag and on life
support breathing Zyklon-B, the poisonous gas used in the
extermination
chambers.
Iran does not recognise the Jewish state, and President Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad has attracted international condemnation by
repeatedly
predicting Israel is doomed to disappear and branding the
Holocaust a
"myth."
The commentary inside the book includes anti-Semitic stereotypes
and
revisionist arguments, casting doubt that the massacre of Jews
took place
and mocking Holocaust survivors who claimed reparations after
World War II.
One comment, in a question-and-answer format, reads: "How
did the
Germans emit gas into chambers while there were no holes on the
ceiling?"
Answer: "Shut up, you criminal anti-Semite. How dare you ask
this question?"
Twenty-first quote of the
day (Thanks Ed):
"The money powers prey upon the nation in times of peace and
conspire against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic
than a monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, and more selfish
than bureaucracy. It denounces as public enemies all who question
its methods or throw light upon its crimes. I have two great
enemies, the Southern Army in front of me and the bankers in the
rear. Of the two, the one at my rear is my greatest foe." --
President Abraham Lincoln.
Twenty-second quote of the day (Thanks David B):
When telling the truth about our world today, it is considered in
bad taste to identify any one racial or gender group as a causal
factor in certain circumstances. For instance: Blacks aren't
involved in crime any more than the Chinese are, so one should
not dwell on the fact that statistics prove otherwise. Every time
I read about an employee caught embezzling funds from a small
business, I will guess it was a female employee and, 9 times out
of 9, I will be correct. Drive-By shootings in our area
(Sacramento) invariably involve Mexican gangs, as do the nightly
"Side Shows" which display an apparent desire for them
to replace their tires each following day. When I read about
major financial rip-offs, such as the current "Buyout"
scheme, it's Jews who will be the suspects. The irrefutable facts
about these subjects cry out to be revealed, yet we are
tongue-tied, repressed, and socially ostracized for doing so.
This is how societies are destroyed; by concealing the facts
which will allow the productive, law-abiding public the means to
eliminate criminal and parasitic elements from their midst.
Strong, moral societies have people like you who openly discuss
such material, and provide the justification for drastic action.
I believe America is adopting a very self-destructive and grossly
unconstitutional policy in the name of a doctrine (Political
Correctness) which has no basis for existing in a free country.
Indeed, nations begin to decay rapidly once that ability to speak
candidly--as your 'controversial' tomes do--about racial
characteristics becomes a criminal act.

Trial Begins for Firefighters Suing City over Forced
Participation in Gay Pride Parade
By Kathleen Gilbert
SAN DIEGO, September 22, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Four San Diego
firefighters who were commanded against their wills to drive a
fire truck in
the city's "gay pride" parade, where they were
subjected to explicit sexual
advances, are now suing city officials for sexual harassment and
violation
of free-speech rights.
Tracy Jarman, the openly lesbian fire chief of the San Diego Fire
Department, admitted in her testimony on Thursday that the
environment the
firefighters were subjected to "could be construed as sexual
harassment."
The four firefighters (John Ghiotto, Jason Hewitt, Alex Kane and
Chad
Allison) say they found the sexually explicit environment at the
parade so
vulgar and disturbing that each of them sought therapy after the
event,
Jarman testified.
One firefighter said, "You could not even look at the crowd
without getting
some type of sexual gesture," adding, "If any crew
member were to hang up
pictures at the station of what we saw, we would be
disciplined."
Charles LiMandri, attorney and West Coast director of the Thomas
More Law
Center representing the firefighters, believes the city should
have known
from past experience, "the kind of offensive activities that
go on at this
event," which in this case involved X-rated catcalls,
genital exposure, and
simulated sex acts between two men. (See LifeSiteNews.com article
http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2007/aug/07080702.html).
Assistant Chief Jeff Carle, who had ordered the firefighters to
join the
parade, testified Thursday that he, too, could see how the parade
would
offend. He defended his actions, saying, "I was faced with
not having an
engine in the pride parade. I didn't think it would be proper to
be absent
in that parade when we're present in almost every other
one."
But the four firefighters are arguing that, unlike other parades,
their
forced participation in the "gay pride" parade
constituted a violation of
their First Amendment rights, since by attending they appeared to
condone
and support the largely political homosexual agenda.
Second quote of the
day (Thanks Ted Pike):
Even when a state doesn’t have hate crime laws on its books,
“hate crimes” are still prosecuted—proving the
clout of ADL’s aggressive campaign to make our nation
“hate-free,” according to their disturbing definitions
of this emotion. The FBI recently reviewed a situation in South
Carolina, one of five states without hate crime laws. It decided
a racially charged online photo wasn’t a hate crime. If it
were, the feds would surely have intervened to prosecute it as a
hate crime instead of allowing South Carolina’s standard
criminal law to enforce justice. Again (as I revealed in my
previous article "FBI: Rising Hate Law Gestapo?") the
FBI is not waiting for the authorization of a federal hate law to
meddle in state law enforcement. They're doing it now.
Third quote of the day (Thanks Thomas A):
Here's a list of the actual owners of the Federal Reserve:
1.. Rothschilds of London and Berlin
2.. Lazard Brothers of Paris
3.. Israel Moses Seaf of Italy
4.. Kuhn, Loeb & Co. of Germany and New York
5.. Warburg & Company of Hamburg, Germany
6.. Lehman Brothers of New York
7.. Goldman, Sachs of New York
8.. Rockefeller Brothers of New York
All of the above listed entities are Jewish. Note that ALL are
also "foreign" with established headquarters in Europe
even the ones in New York are only "branches" of
European establishments. There are an additional three hundred
people, approximately, mostly relatives, who hold stock or
shares, and they comprise the ownership of this monster, the
massive wealth of which is beyond man's comprehension.

Fourth quote of the
day (Thanks EH):
The mainstream media ruthlessly and endlessly repeat any McCain
gaffes while
ignoring Obama gaffes. You have to go to weird little web sites
to see all
the stammering and stuttering that Obama needs before getting out
a sentence
fragment or two. But all you see on the networks is an eventually
clear
sentence from Obama. You don't see Obama's ludicrous gaffe that
Iran is a tiny
country and no threat to us. Nor his 57 American states gaffe.
Nor his forgetting,
if he ever knew, that Russia has a veto in the U.N. Nor his
whining and
puerile "come on" when he is being challenged. This is
the kind of editing one
would expect from Goebbels' disciples, not Cronkite's.
More appalling, a skit on NBC's "Saturday Night Live"
last weekend suggested
that Gov. Palin's husband had sex with his own daughters. That
show was
written with the assistance of Al Franken, Democratic Party
candidate in Minnesota
for the U.S. Senate. Talk about incest.
But worse than all the unfair and distorted reporting and image
projecting
are the shocking gaps in Obama's life that are not reported at
all. The major
media simply have not reported on Obama's two years at New York's
Columbia
University, where, among other things, he lived a mere
quarter-mile from former
terrorist Bill Ayers. Later, they both ended up as neighbors and
associates
in Chicago. Obama denies more than a passing relationship with
Ayers. Should
the media be curious? In only two weeks, the media have focused
on all the
colleges Gov. Palin has attended, her husband's driving habits 20
years ago, and
the close criticism of the political opponents Gov. Palin had
when she was
mayor of Wasilla, Alaska. But in two years, they haven't bothered
to see how
close Obama was with the terrorist Ayers.

broadcaster and start using their wavelength to mule OUR message!

have dark hair in the family. I would imagine the Italians and
Greeks think they are funny, but I don't think they would
appreciate them in Sweden or Finland.
[Birdman responds: I believe in taking laughter wherever you
can get it. In paticular, the blond jokes I post are funny (or at
least in my opinion), so I am not going to avoid posting them out
of ideological purity. If you don't laugh at them, ok, then maybe
the fault is not with the jokes, but with an underdeveloped sense
of humor. As to their truth, I have said it before and will say
it again: Stereotypes would not persist if there were not some
truth to them, however small.]
Seventh quote of
the day (Thanks Bob T):
Army to Be Deployed INSIDE U.S. as Part of Northcom
An article in the Army Times reveals that the 3rd Infantry
Division's 1st Brigade Combat Team will be redeployed from Iraq
to domestic operations within the United States.
The unit will soon be under the day-to-day control of US Army
North, the Army service component of Northern Command. The Army
Times reports this new mission marks the first time an active
unit has been given a dedicated assignment to Northern Command.
The paper says the Army unit may be called upon to help with
"civil unrest" and "crowd control".
The soldiers are learning to use so-called "nonlethal
weapons" designed to subdue unruly or dangerous individuals
and crowds.
This violates posse comitatus and the Constitution. But, hey,
we're in a "national emergency", so who cares, right?

Eighth quote of the
day (Thanks Henri):
VETERANS FOR PEACE OCCUPY NATIONAL ARCHIVES BUILDING
"Arresting Bush and Cheney for war crimes will honor our
oath to the Constitution," vets say.
On Tuesday morning, September 23, 7:30am, at the front of the
National Archives Building on Constitution Ave. in Washington,
D.C., five military veterans will risk arrest as they climb a
9-foot retaining fence and occupy a 35-foot high ledge to raise a
22x8 foot banner stating, "DEFEND OUR CONSTITUTION. ARREST
BUSH AND CHENEY: WAR CRIMINALS!"
The group has declared its intention to stay on the ledge,
fasting for 24 hours "in remembrance of those who have
perished and those still suffering from the crimes of the Bush
administration," according to a written statement. With a
portable PA system, they will broadcast recorded statements from
prominent Americans for the impeachment and/or arrest of George
W. Bush and Richard Cheney. "Citizens Arrest Warrants"
will be distributed to people waiting in line to enter the
National Archives.
The veterans emphasized they are taking this action because
"Bush and Cheney's serial abuse of the Law of the Land
clearly marks them as domestic enemies of the Constitution: they
have illegally invaded and occupied Iraq, deliberately destroyed
civilian infrastructure, authorized torture, and unlawfully
detained prisoners. These actions clearly mark them as war
criminals accountability extends beyond impeachment to
prosecution for war crimes even after their terms of office
expire."
"We take this action as a last resort," their statement
added. "For years we have pursued every avenue open to good,
vigilant citizens to bring these men to justice, to re-establish
the rule of law, and to restore the balance of power described in
our Constitution. We are not disturbing the peace; we are
attempting to restore the peace. We are not conducting ourselves
in a disorderly manner; our action is well-ordered and
well-considered. We are not trespassing; we have come to the home
of our Constitution to honor our oath to defend it."

Ninth quote of the
day (Thanks Alexander B):
I'm not suggesting anything - I stress - but I wonder how
enthusiastic the police and the state lawyers would be, in
Britain in particular, if after every "racist" was
charged with a thought crime some individual or organisation were
to shoot one of their ilk, or maybe just waylay one and give him
- or her - a good kicking. How much you wanna bet there would be
a big drop in cases like the Heretical Two. And would it still be
a crime to display a swastika in Germany? Just a thought.
Tenth quote of the
day (Thanks David H):
Why not support tariffs over a land tax?
Federal tax agents would not have to dig into the folk's personal
finances. They would just be relegated to the ports and other
fringes.
Also, this would counteract corrupt countries we trade with that
have indentured-servitude economies. Therefore this would help
American workers compete with cheap labor.
Forgive me if you were just writing about state and local
government taxes.
[Birdman responds:
The matter of tariffs is important. I am all in favor of tariffs,
but my interest is in protecting American manufacturers, ie, in
keeping countries with cheap labor from underselling American
manufacturers, not in using tariffs as a tax vehicle. This keeps
America independent and strong, and keeps jobs at home.
Libertarians object to this, because they cannot think of the
matter in any terms but economic, and see tariffs as protecting
inefficient manufacturers from foreign competition. This is
important, because if America is to be kept strong, how can we
protect against inefficient manufacturers? I am not sure what the
best strategy is here, but perhaps is one where a domestic
industry could be protected for a few years, but not forevers,
which gives them time to upgrade.
At this time of the morning my explanations are not too coherent,
but I hope you understand my point.]

Twelfth quote of
the day (Thanks Ash):
...this new mission marks the first time an active unit has been
given a dedicated assignment to NorthCom, a joint command
established in 2002 to provide command and control for federal
homeland defense efforts and coordinate defense support of civil
authorities. ...
The 1st of the 3rd is still scheduled to deploy to either Iraq or
Afghanistan in early 2010, which means the soldiers will have
been home a minimum of 20 months by the time they ship out.
In the meantime, they’ll learn new skills, use some of the
ones they acquired in the war zone and more than likely will not
be shot at while doing any of it.
They may be called upon to help with civil unrest and crowd
control or to deal with potentially horrific scenarios such as
massive poisoning and chaos in response to a chemical,
biological, radiological, nuclear or high-yield explosive, or
CBRNE, attack.

Thirteenth quote of
the day (Thanks TLSTAR, Governor and Henri):
Russian Military Analysts are reporting in the Kremlin today that
the
United States Secretary of Defense, Robert Gates, has alerted his
World-Wide military commands to begin preparations for the
raising of
America’s Defense Condition (DEFCON) “on or about”
October 7th to their
highest status DEFCON 1.
United States ally Israel has, likewise, raised its alert status
to
their highest level, and as we can read as reported by the World
Tribune
News Service:
“Israel's military has been placed on high alert following
an airline
bomb scare and reports of other threats. "There is an
assessment that
something very bad will take place over the next few weeks,
perhaps over
the Jewish holidays," an official said.”
This unprecedented action by the United States in raising its
alert
status came almost immediately after American and Pakistani
troops
traded fire today, and as we can read as reported by the New York
Times
News Service:
“Pakistani and American ground troops exchanged fire along
the border
with Afghanistan on Thursday after the Pakistanis shot at two
American
helicopters, ratcheting up tensions as the United States
increases its
attacks against militants from Al Qaeda and the Taliban, who are
being
sheltered in Pakistan’s restive tribal areas.”

Fourteenth quote of the day (Thanks Henri):
http://www.rense.com/general83/carrots.htm
The following is information from a farmer who grows and packages
carrots for IGA, METRO, LOBLAWS, etc.
The small cocktail (baby) carrots you buy in small plastic bags
are made using the larger crooked or deformed carrots which are
put through a machine which cuts and shapes them into cocktail
carrots . most people probably know this already.
What you may not know and should know is the following: once the
carrots are cut and shaped into cocktail carrots they are dipped
in a solution of water and chlorine in order to preserve them
(this is the same chlorine used your pool) since they do not have
their skin or natural protective covering, they give them a
higher dose of chlorine. You will notice that once you keep these
carrots in your refrigerator for a few days, a white covering
will form on the carrots, this is the chlorine which resurfaces.
At what cost do we put our health at risk to have esthetically
pleasing vegetables which are practically plastic?
We do hope that this information can be passed on to as many
people as possible in the hopes of informing them where these
carrots come from and how they are processed. Chlorine is a very
well known carcinogen. Please let us make this information
available to as many people as possible. If you care about your
family and friends, pass it on.

BEIJING, Sept 25 (Reuters) - Chinese regulators have told
domestic banks to stop interbank lending to U.S. financial
institutions to prevent possible losses during the financial
crisis, the South China Morning Post reported on Thursday.
The Hong Kong newspaper cited unidentified industry sources as
saying the instruction from the China Banking Regulatory
Commission (CBRC) applied to interbank lending of all currencies
to U.S. banks but not to banks from other countries.
"The decree appears to be Beijing's first attempt to erect
defences against the deepening U.S. financial meltdown after the
mainland's major lenders reported billions of U.S. dollars in
exposure to the credit crisis," the SCMP said.

NEW YORK (AP) -- A jury is deciding whether the death of a Sports
Illustrated reporter's 8-pound tabby was a tragic accident _ or
felonious animal cruelty.
Prosecutors say former minor league baseball player Joseph Petcka
beat, stomped and kicked the cat to death in a jealous and
drunken fury after complaining that his girlfriend loved the
feline more than she loved him.
Petcka's attorney said his client overreacted but did not
intentionally kill Norman the cat.
Jurors were to resume deliberations Tuesday in the aggravated
animal cruelty trial of Petcka, who pitched in the New York Mets'
minor league system in 1992.
Petcka, 37, claimed he unintentionally killed the declawed cat on
March 27, 2007, while defending himself from it, but prosecutor
Leila Kermani on Monday called him a liar, describing him as a a
"washed-up, never-made-it-to-the-big-leagues athlete"

The decision came after a clause to this effect, which had been

the draft Consumer Protection Bill last year, was reinstated.
National
Co-ordinator of SAFeAGE, a consumer GMO watchdog that has been
lobbying for
two years to have this clause reinstated said, "The GMO Act
does not protect
consumers, it is rather a permitting system that welcomes
untested,
unlabelled and irresponsible genetic modification to run rife in
our
country. Consumers will finally have the right to choose once
this Bill is
implemented".

Fannie Mae's departing CEO took $14 million in severance and
Freddie Mac's ex-honcho walked with $9 million. Henry Paulson's

The $700 billion about to be handed over to Treasury Secretary
Paulson will carry no oversight and no regulatory authority
whatsoever: He gets a blank check. Section 8 of the proposed
legislation provides that "(d)ecisions by the Secretary
pursuant to the authority of this Act are non-reviewable and
committed to agency discretion, and may not be reviewed by any
court of law or any administrative agency." How about that,
eh? The arrogance of the Bush Administration continues to new

Proponents of the "we're all one race," swill took
another hit recently when scientists revealed that bananas share
about 50% of the DNA of humans (I kid you not). This is 10% more
than what we share with earthworms. Add this information to the
previous revelation that humans and chimps are 98.4% the same
genetically, and you begin to see the problem for the we're all
one race crowd--our present ignorant flat worlders.
The reason this is a hit for the all one race crackpots is
because it is just a further indication that nature works with
minor changes to make major differences. In fact, there are no
"tiny" changes in nature at the DNA level of existence.
Just a minor change here or there makes a totally different

EXCLUSIVE: Cindy McCain's Half Sister: "I'm Voting for
Barack Hussein Obama"
Thursday August 28, 2008
_Buzz up!_
(http://buzz.yahoo.com/article/us_weekly995/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.usmagazine.com%2Fnews%2Fcindy-mccains-half-sister-im-voting-for-obama)
Cindy McCain's half sister is planning on voting for Barack
Obama, she tells
"Usmagazine.com".
"I'm not voting for McCain," Kathleen Hensley Portalski
tells Us. "I have a
different political standpoint. I have learned to love black men.
They are
endowed with power, you know where. I just love their vigor. In
the bed room,
but even black men don't want me anymore, I am too fat and ugly.
Oh well."
"I'm voting for Obama," the Phoenix resident says.
"I think his proposals to
improve the country are more positive and I'm not a big war
believer."
Portalski, 65, and the potential first lady, 54, have the same
father: Jim
Hensley, the founder of the beer distributor Hensley and Co. that
Cindy McCain
now chairs.
In an interview with NPR News' _All Things Considered_
(http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=93708729)
last week, Portalski said she
_felt "like a non-person" after Cindy McCain described
herself as an "only child_
(http://www.usmagazine.com/news/cindy-mccain-half-sister-she-makes-me-feel-lik
e-a-non-person) ." Naturally this explains her rancor and
statement about
Hussein.
Portalski's mother is Hensley's first wife; Cindy McCain's
mother,
Marguerite Hensley, also had another daughter from her first
marriage.
"She's kinda cool, standoffish," Portalski tells
"Us" of her half sister.
"And, as you can see, I'm no rose bud. She looks better than
I ever did and I'm
angry about that. So I will attack her, that way I'll feel better
about being
ugly."
Portalski also doesn't expect Cindy McCain to make an effort to
reconcile
their relationship.
"She never has, and I doubt that she ever will, screw
her." she tells Us.

Eighth quote of the
day (Thanks redfox):
The warning coincides with news that American executives of the
failed Lehman Brothers bank, parts of which were taken over by
Barclays last week, will still receive millions in bonuses.
Barclays has pledged to pay $2.5 billion in bonuses and salaries
to Lehman staff in New York, whose collapse brought the
world’s financial system to the brink of failure.
A group of eight senior executives and 200 key staff will enjoy
multi-million-pound rewards for their performance in the past
nine months. A further 8,800 staff will share the remainder of
the pot, with many having guaranteed jobs as part of the takeover
of the US arm of the investment bank.
In Britain, by contrast, nearly 5,000 sacked Lehman staff can
expect no further pay.
Vince Cable, the Liberal Democrat Treasury spokesman, said:
“This is outrageous and deeply cynical. They are being
rewarded for having adopted business behaviour that has wrecked
their own bank. The wider public that is ultimately paying for
this, let alone their low-paid employees, will be absolutely
furious.”
John McFall, chairman of the Treasury select committee, said:
“This is socialism for the fat cats. These people demolished
institutions, yet they are walking away with security for life
while others and their families have been brought to their
knees.”
Gordon Brown said he was pushing the United States to help return
$8 billion transferred from London to New York just before Lehman
collapsed.. Speaking at the Labour party conference he said:
“We are asking and working with the American government to
get that money back to pay salaries, not of highflying financiers
but of cleaners and people who are computer operators.”
Anger over the excesses of the investment bank “fat
cats” is likely to grow as the implications of the financial
turmoil for ordinary people become clearer.

LIMA, Peru (Sept. 16) - New York native Lori Berenson, who is
serving a
20-year sentence in Peru for collaborating with leftist
guerrillas in the 1990s,
is four weeks pregnant, her father says.
"It's a euphoric feeling for us," Mark Berenson, a
former college professor,
told the AP on Tuesday.
American Lori Berenson, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence
in Peru, is
pregnant, according to her father. Berenson, now 38, is shown in
2001. She
was convicted of helping leftist guerrillas.
Lori Berenson, 38, is married to Anibal Apari, a paroled member
of the
Cuban-inspired Tupac Amaru Revolutionary Movement or MRTA, whom
she met in jail.
Her father said the prison allows conjugal visits, but he has not
had the
chance to speak with Apari since news of the pregnancy.
A former Massachussets Institute of Technology student, Lori
Berenson was
arrested in November 1995 and a military court sentenced her the
following to
life in prison. A civilian court retried her in 2000, convicting
her of the
lesser crime of terrorist collaboration and reducing her
sentence.
The Inter-American Court of Human Rights, the legal arm of the
Organization
of American States, upheld the civilian court's ruling in 2004,
closing Lori
Berenson's last avenue to formally appeal her sentence.
She denies any wrongdoing and maintains she is a political
prisoner.
The AP obtained a signed declaration from Berenson's prison
doctor saying
the pregnancy was detected during medical tests on Berenson's
ailing back.
"Lori has had health issues. We don't know how the pregnancy
will affect
someone" with a back ailment, her father said by telephone
in New York City.
Prison officials say Berenson suffers from herniated disks in her
back and
loss of hearing in one ear. She is scheduled for release in
November 2015.
Prisoners in Peru typically raise their children in jail until
the age of 3,
when they are required to be sent to family members.

Why all of the buildings at the World Trade Center had to be
destroyed
>>>>>>>>>
However, if the perceived objective of the attack is re-defined
from its commonly suggested 'symbolic' designation as either 'a
terrorist attack' or a 'new Pearl Harbor,' and one begins by
looking at it as purely a crime with specific objectives(as
opposed to a political action), there is a compelling logic to
the pattern of destruction. The September11th attacks were meant
as a cover-up for financial crimes being investigated by the
Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI), whose offices in the Pentagon
were destroyed on September 11th.1 After six years of research,
this report presents corroborating evidence which supports their
claims, and proposes a new rationale for the September
11thattacks. The hypothesis of this report is: the attacks of
September 11th were intended to cover-up the clearing of $240
billion dollars in securities covertly created in September 1991
to fund a covert economic war against the Soviet Union, during
which 'unknown' western
Investors bought up much of the Soviet industry, with a focus on
oil and gas. The attacks of September 11th also served to derail
multiple Federal investigations away from crimes associated with
the 1991 covert operation. In doing so, the attacks were
justified under the cardinal rule of intelligence: "protect
your resources" and consistent with a modus operandi of
sacrificing lives for a greater cause.
Woden's Day 2008-09-17:
Quote of the day (Thanks
Governor):
The bottom line is that the rest of this month, and next, could
be
ugly so be prepared. The second bottom line is that this
Depression
like the last is caused by deliberate contraction of
credit. House prices are falling because banks don't have the
money to
lend to house buyers. As a result, portfolios holding mortgage
backed
securities are tumbling, taking banks with them. The Fed, after
bailing out Fannie May and Freddie Mack, have let Lehman Brothers
fail.
AIG appears to be next and the dominoes will continue to fall.
Merrill Lynch
is gone, with many more to come, both in Australia, and the USA.
Get out of debt if you can, and if you're cashed up, split your
cash into
several banks, as the govt. has guaranteed cash only up to
$20,000 per
account.
[Birdman comment: $20,000? I think that's for Oz banks
only.]
Second quote of the
day (Thanks Tony):
From the 9/18/08 issue of Rolling Stone magazine:
In the world of comedy, few items are more dreaded than the
"studio note" - a suggestion or criticism, sometimes
handwritten, often at the last minute, from an executive or a
"standards and practices" representative. Usually the
execs have a problem with language. Other times it's the plot.
And sometimes. . . Here, in their own words, some Hollywood's
funniest talents recall the craziest notes they've received.
David Wain: We got a shot to do a prime-time "The
State" special on CBS, and one of the network execs sat us
down and told us that he had looked around the room at us and
noticed no black faces. He said, "It's important you find a
way to have some black people on the show, because black people
watch late-night television. And the reason why late-night
television appeals to black audiences is because black people
don't have jobs and have nowhere to go the next morning. So they
stay up late, and they can't afford cable TV, and they don't have
the brains to follow drama plotlines. So they watch late-night
variety shows." The remark got published, and the guy had to
resign.

Preparing for World War III
Avant-Guerre: Chronique d’un cataclysme annoncé
(Pre-War: Account of an Impending Cataclysm)
Reviewed by Michael O’Meara
Readers of The Occidental Quarterly are probably unfamiliar with
the work of Guillaume Faye, but his ideas are increasingly those
of Europe’s nationalist vanguard.
An early associate of Alain de Benoist and one of the architects
of the European New Right, the young Faye left politics in the
late 1980s to pursue a career in media. In 1998 he returned,
instantly re-establishing himself as the intellectual force on
the nationalist right.
He has since published five books, each of which has had a major
impact on the struggle against multiculturalism, Third World
immigration, and globalization.1 Unlike Benoist and other New
Right theoreticians, whose defense of the European ethnos is
waged almost exclusively on the cultural terrain, and unlike Le
Pen's National Front, which favors the assimilation rather than
the forced repatriation of non-Europeans, Faye claims that race
is not only primary to cultural identity, but that race and
culture are, at root, inseparable. For this reason he argues that
the struggle to preserve Europe's cultural patrimony is no less a
struggle to defend its genetic heritage and the ethnic integrity
of its Lebensraum.2
His latest work—Avant-Guerre: Chronique d’un cataclysme
annoncé (Pre-War: Account of an Impending Cataclysm)—is
reminiscent of Spengler’s Hour of Decision. Like Spengler,
Faye looks at the storm clouds on the horizon and predicts that
within ten years a coming era of world-altering tempests will
descend on the white race, determining if it is to have a future
or not.
In his view, these cataclysms will be neither ideological nor
economic in character, but (à la Huntington) racial and
civilizational, involving clashing continental blocs and warring
ethno-racial groups. They are thus likely to engender
unprecedented violence and destruction, forcibly shaking white
people from the stupor that is leading them toward extinction.
Although presently unprepared to fight such wars and alienated
from all that is distinct to their race and heritage, the
struggles of the twenty-first century, he believes, will give
Europeans on both sides of the Atlantic a final chance to throw
off the forces that have denatured and debilitated then over the
last half century.

Foreign Agents: AIPAC from the 1963 Fulbright Hearings to the
2005 Espionage Scandal
16-09-08
Book authored by Grant F. Smith
Revued by Andrew Burroughs:
Grant Smith's book traces the secret history of the American
Israel Political Affairs Committee (AIPAC). AIPAC is an
organization little known or understood outside of the Washington
Beltway and those who follow American Middle East policy.
However, its relative obscurity in the Heartland should not fool
the public. AIPAC has evolved into one of the most powerful
lobbying organizations in the United States. Politicians,
regardless of political stripe, play homage to AIPAC. Indeed,
critical pieces of legislation regarding US policies towards
Israel and the Middle East are drafted in AIPAC's downtown
Washington offices. While most lobby organizations represent
genuine American commercial or social interests, Smith makes a
compelling case that AIPAC is a functional extension of the
Israeli government. The recent espionage case involving two AIPAC
officials is a striking example of AIPAC's highly conflicted
agenda (fully documented in Smith's book). It would be more
accurate for AIPAC to rename itself the "Israeli Political
Action Committee" to better disclose the efforts it makes to
sway elections in virtually every US congressional district. This
book shows how AIPAC, a nonprofit corporation prohibited from
supporting political candidates, does just that in clandestine
and illegal ways. It also shows the strategic revolution led by
founder Si Kenen and why neutral sounding organization names,
especially for political action committees, has been so important
to AIPAC's stealth operations.
Fifth quote of the
day (Thanks Bill J - Reaction to Brad Smith posting):
I read where Bradley Smith has cancer.
You get back with this guy and you tell him to drink hemp paste.
You drink food grade hydrogen peroxide. You drink oxygenated
water and he should also suck on pure oxygen a few minutes in the
evning, but don't even think about Chemo. There is enough
evidence out there that supports that Chemo and surgery are
wrong. You make sure you tell this guy. This isn't a joke. Don't
let this guy get chemo. He's just killing his whole body trying
to kill the cancer.
[Birdman responds:]
Dear Bill:
You saw what Brad said. There is nothing really that I can do.
Let's face it -- some people think that, because something is
free (in this case, for vets), it must be worth something, while
the truth is that, if it is free, then the only thing it is worth
is something to SOMEONE ELSE. But I did leave his address in the
posting so that others like you could tell him he has his head up
his ass. -j
>>>>>>>
PS: He says that 'he doesn't have time' to evaluate the Moss
report, but the fact is that, if you don't have the time to take
care of the things necessary for you to live, then, as Longfellow
might say, it is time to fold up your tents like the Arabs, and
silently steal away. And here the guy is on what may be the
biggest breakthru of his career. Sheesh and shabazz!

Former Syrian minister: US guilty for 9/11 attacks
http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull&cid=1221142453931
The Syrian government daily Teshreen marked the seventh
anniversary of 9/11 this week in a unique fashion:
by publishing an article by Syria's former information minister
blaming US intelligence agencies for the attacks
According to Mahdi Dakhlallah, in a piece that appeared
Wednesday, the intelligence agencies were behind
the September 11, 2001 attacks to provide a pretext for a
preplanned US plan to invade Iraq and Afghanistan.
"These plans were ready and prepared [in advance] - and all
that was needed was to find a pretext to begin their immediate
implementation," wrote Dakhlallah, in a piece of which
excerpts were translated by MEMRI, the Middle East Media Research
Institute.
Dakhlallah wrote that
in the US, the end justifies the means (only since the Antichrist
took power, here), and
Washington's overarching goal was to invade Afghanistan "to
get close to the Caspian Sea gas and oil pipelines, and then to
invade Iraq and to fix the poles of the tent of unipolarity in
the ground."
Seventh quote of the day (Thanks Robert):
Childhood’s End
Britain, land of bleak houses and low expectations
Growing up in today’s England is far from the idyll depicted
in this nineteenth-century lithograph.Britain is the worst
country in the Western world in which to be a child, according to
a recent UNICEF report. Ordinarily, I would not set much store by
such a report; but in this case, I think it must be
right—not because I know so much about childhood in all the
other 20 countries examined but because the childhood that many
British parents give to their offspring is so awful that it is
hard to conceive of worse, at least on a mass scale. The two
poles of contemporary British child rearing are neglect and
overindulgence.
Consider one British parent, Fiona MacKeown, who in November 2007
went on a six-month vacation to Goa, India, with her boyfriend
and eight of her nine children by five different fathers, none of
whom ever contributed financially for long to the children’s
upkeep. (The child left behind—her eldest, at 19—was a
drug addict.) She received $50,000 in welfare benefits a year,
and doubtless decided—quite rationally, under the
circumstances—that the money would go further, and that life
would thus be more agreeable, in Goa than in her native Devon.

Israel asks U.S. for arms, air corridor to attack Iran
By Amos Harel and Aluf Benn, Haaretz
The security aid package the United States has refused to give
Israel for
the past few months out of concern that Israel would use it to
attack
nuclear facilities in Iran included a large number of
"bunker-buster" bombs,
permission to use an air corridor to Iran, an advanced
technological system
and refueling planes.
Officials from both countries have been discussing the Israeli
requests over
the past few months. Their rejection would make it very difficult
for Israel
to attack Iran, if such a decision is made.
About a month ago, Haaretz reported that the Bush administration
had turned
down an Israeli request for certain security items that could
upgrade
Israel's capability to attack Iran. The U.S. administration
reportedly saw
the request as a sign preparations were moving ahead for an
Israeli attack
on Iran.
