Henry Ford said: "If after having elected their man or group, obedience is not rendered to the Jewish control, then you speedily hear of 'scandals' and 'investigations' and 'impeachments' for the removal of the disobedient. Usually a man with a 'past' proves the most obedient instrument, but even a good man can often be tangled up in campaign practices that compromise him. It has been commonly known that Jewish manipulation of American election campaigns have been so skillfully handled, that no matter which candidate was elected, there was ready made a sufficient amount of evidence to discredit him in case his Jewish masters needed to discredit him."
Admiral Thomas Moorer, Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff under Ronald Reagan said: "I've never seen a President - I don't care who he is - stand up to them (the Israelis). It just boggles the mind. They always get what they want. The Israelis know what is going on all the time. If the American people understood what a grip those people have got on our government, they would rise up in arms. Our citizens certainly don't have any idea what goes on."
On ABC's Face the Nation, William Fulbright - US Senator and Chairman of the US Foreign Relations committee - said: "Israel controls the United States Senate. We should be more concerned about the United States' interests."
Patrick Buchanan said: "The United States Congress is Israeli occupied territory."
Billy Graham and President Richard Nixon said on tape:
GRAHAM: "The Jewish stranglehold on the media has got to be broken or this country's going down the drain".
NIXON: "You believe that?"
GRAHAM: "Yes, sir."
NIXON: "Oh boy. So do I. I can't ever say that but I do believe it"

Israeli journalist Ari Shavit, lamenting Israel's harsh treatment of Palestinians, wrote in Ha'aretz: " We believe with absolute certitude that now, with the White House and Senate in our hands along with the Pentagon and the New York Times, the lives [of Arabs] do not count as much as our own. Their blood does not count as much as our blood. We believe with absolute certitude that now, when we have AIPAC [the Israel lobby] and [Edgar] Bronfman and the Anti-Defamation League, we truly have the right to tell 400,000 people that in eight hours they must flee from their homes. And that we have the right to rain bombs on their villages and towns and populated areas. That we have the right to kill without any guilt."

Opus Dei and John Paul II
http://www.guardian.co.uk/pope/story/0,12272,1456769,00.html
According to the Guardian, "a dark-horse candidate for pope, capable of bridging the divide between the Europeans and the Latin American Roman Catholic cardinals, appears to be emerging in the shape of the Patriarch of Portugal, Jose da Cruz Policarpo." Policarpo is thought to be relatively moderate.
http://www.counterpunch.org/navarro04082005.html
In Counterpunch, VICENTE NAVARRO writes that John Paul II "was groomed for the Papacy... by the ultra-right-wing sect Opus Dei.... Opus Dei... developed the strategy to make him the Pope, assisted by the bishop of Munich, Joseph Ratzinger; the U.S. cardinals close to Opus Dei, Joseph Krol and Patrick Cody; and a cardinal then close to Opus Dei, Cardinal Franz König from Vienna...
John Paul II made Opus Dei member, Angelo Sodano, Secretary of State of the Vatican.
The Spanish Daily El Periodico (5 April 2005) reported that the Pope received periodical reports from U.S. CIA Director William Casey (a Roman Catholic) on the "distressing" Jesuit movements in Latin America.
In Spain, John Paul supported the post-Francoist party, the Popular Party (whose founder is Fraga Iribarne, ex-Minister of the Interior of the Franco fascist regime).
John Paul gave a speech against the Zapatero government.

Lockerbie Bomb and Ecuador and New Zealand
Former CIA agent Philip Agee wrote 'Inside the Company: CIA Diary' (New York, 1975).
Agee wrote that, in Ecuador, almost all political organizations were infiltrated by the CIA, often at the highest levels.
Agee explained that in Ecuador Various CIA front organisations were set up. These spewed out propaganda. A well-known personality would deliver a speech prepared by the CIA, and then a newspaper editor, or a well-known columnist, would praise it, both gentlemen being on the CIA payroll.
Union leaders were taken over by the CIA.
In virtually every department of the Ecuadorean government there were people working for the CIA.
At one point, the Agency could count amongst this number the men who were second and third in power in the country.
CIA agents would bomb churches or right-wing organizations and make it appear to be the work of leftists.
They would march in left-wing parades displaying signs and shouting slogans of a very provocative anti-military nature.
What happens in Ecuador seemingly happens in Scotland and England.
~~~
Remember the Lockerbie Bomb?
An internal investigation by Pan Am is believed to have found that the bomb planted on Flight 103 was NOT put on the plane in Malta.
The Pan Am report is believed to have concluded that the bomb was not aimed at the killing of Americans in general, but was targeted specifically to kill a small band of DIA operatives that had uncovered a drugs ring run by a CIA unit in Lebanon.
The drugs-ring is said to have been set up by Israeli Mossad agents.
~~~~~
Why do some Scots believe that justice was done at the Lockerbie bomb trial? Because they have been deceived by the CIA.
LOCKERBIE - There were many advance warnings that a bomb was going to be placed on a US aircraft at Frankfurt airport.
For example, on 5 December 1988, the US Embassy in Helsinki had a telephone warning that "within the next two weeks" an attempt would be made to place a bomb aboard a Pan Am flight from Frankfurt to New York. On 18 december 1988 the German BKA was tipped off about a bomb plot against Pan Am 103 in the next two or three days.
Pan Am Flight 103 hit Lockerbie on 21 December 1988.
On that flight "were at least 2 US Intelligence agents and a Mr Khalid Nazir Jafaar."
The Dumfries and Galloway police began to investigate.
But for two days it was "difficult" for them to collect evidence as "CIA agents combed the countryside for the luggage of the dead American intelligence agents and a suitcase full of heroin.... 59 bodies were left lying around Lockerbie until 24 December... but by then there were only 58 bodies..." according to former DIA agent Lester Coleman
~~~~
The Lockerbie judges considered the evidence of Maltese shopkeeper Tony Gauci, who provided the only visual identification of al-Megrahi as having been the person who allegedly bought clothes that were found, or planted , at the crash site, and were thought to be in the same suitcase as the bomb.
Gauci’s evidence was upheld despite numerous discrepancies over the date, time, weather, which football matches were on the television and even whether or not Christmas decorations were up. Gauci had previously identified a member of a Palestinian group, Abu Talb, as being the person who 'bought the clothes'. Abu Talb does not look like al-Megrahi.
~~~~
The Lockerbie Bomb trial suggested that something is going badly wrong in Scotland.
The Sunday Herald 08/04/2001 : "THE United Nations has savaged the Crown Office's handling of the Lockerbie trial claiming the outcome was rigged through the unfair suppression of evidence; it was politically influenced by the USA; and the court had no grounds to return a guilty verdict. Dr Hans Kochler, who was handpicked by UN Secretary General Kofi Annan to act as the international observer during the trial in Holland, hinted that the trial was rigged, claimed the guilty verdict handed down in February to Abdelbasset Ali Mohamed Al Megrahi was "arbitrary" and "irrational" and gave his tacit support for an acquittal at the planned appeal."
23 May, 2000: It was revealed by sections of the Scottish press that the deputy director of the Lockerbie trial briefing unit at Glasgow University, Professor Andrew Fulton, was an MI6 intelligence officer. The unit was supposed to provide "impartial and objective" legal information about the trial and was much used by the TV news programmes. 24/05/00 THE SCOTSMAN: "Prof Fulton has been 'on holiday' since it was revealed that during his 30 year diplomatic career he was a key memberof the MI6 secret service in Europe, Asia and America."
~~~
Speaking after the Lockerbie Bomb trial, Dr Jim Swires, whose daughter, Flora, was killed in the explosion said, “We think there has been miscarriage of justice." Professor Robert Black, the lawyer who has worked closely with the relatives for many years and the architect of the trial process itself, also described the trial as a miscarriage of justice. He told the Scotsman, “We have not seen the end of this case... There is a hell of lot of more evidence that appeared neither at the trial or the appeal.”
~~~
In 1965 CIA boss Angleton, and President Johnson, decided to commission a report on Britain's secret services.
This report recommended sending more spies to Britain. It seemed that the CIA was going to treat Britain like Indonesia o r Pakistan. In order to ensure that there was an elite which would support US interests, the CIA would try to gain control of MI5 and MI6, use dirty tricks to get rid of anti-American politicians, and place pro-American puppets into positions of power.
In 1996, in the Guardian, Martin Kettle suggested that New Labour was all about Britain being in with the Americans.
In a talk to Labour Party branches in 1996, Robin Ramsay (Lobster Magazine) pointed out some interesting links between New labour and the USA- Jonathan Powell, Blair's top man in Downing Street, used to work in Britain's Washington embassy and is suspected by some of having been our spook liaising with the CIA.
The US encouraged large numbers of Labour MPs to take free trips to America (Israel also invited a large number of Labour MPs to Israel).
In 1986 Tony Blair went on a US-sponsored trip to America and came back a supporter of the nuclear deterrent.
In 1993 Blair attended a Bilderberg Group meeting (secretive right wing organisation) and not long afterwards became Labour leader.
Four of the Blair cabinet have been members of the Anglo-American elite group the British American Project. Three of the Blair cabinet have attended Bilderberg meetings.
Peter Mandelson become Chair of British Youth Council which began as the British section of the World Assembly of Youth, which was set up and financed by MI6 and then taken over by the CIA in the 1950s. By Mandelson's time in the mid1970s the British Youth Council was said to be financed by the Foreign Office or MI6. According to Ramsay, 'Peter Mandelson has been around MI6 since his early 20s'.
Old Labour is the domestic economy; New Labour is the overseas British economy. In other words, the multinationals, the City of London, and the Foreign Office which represents their interests.'
And the unions? According to Ramsay: "The CIA also ran the anti-communist international trade union movement, the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions, the ICFTU..By the mid 1950s nearly a quarter of the TUC's annual budget was going to the ICFTU, a CIA operation.
And the press? According to Ramsay, the security services may be planting disinformation in the media. "Tomlinson told us about the 20-strong I/Ops - Information Operations - unit in that shiny building on the Thames." And sometimes the information is confusing.
Ramsay writes: "does Gaddafi have Taiwanese Scuds (MI5 story planted in the Sunday Times) or North Korean missiles (MI6 story planted in the Sunday Telegraph.... The Sunday Times was a serious, respectable newspaper until Andrew Neil became its editor in the mid-1980s and turned it into a mouth-piece for MI5 and the MOD to run their rubbish through. The Sunday Telegraph shows all the signs of going down the same dangerous path."

It looks like the Anglo-American-Israeli elite are in charge.
Now here is an interesting quote about what may be happening: 'There has been a gradual erosion of civil liberties, an increase in the influence of the army, and an acceptance of corruption among public servants. Vast fortunes have been accumulated by a small group who use their wealth to control the Senate.'
That was a description of the Roman Empire, but it could equally be a description of the present-day Britain, or the US Empire or the former Soviet Empire. It is conspiracies from within, rather than conspiracies from without, which often lead to the collapse of empires.
In 1991, Paul Henderson, managing director of machine tools company Matrix Churchill, was in court facing a seven year jail sentence for selling to Iraq materials that could be used for military purposes. Government ministers tried to prevent the court from discovering the truth - that Paul Henderson had been working for the British government as a secret agent for 17 years. Eventually the truth about Henderson came out. But why had we been helping Iraq?
The July 29, 1991 issue of TIME MAGAZINE stated :"B.C.C.I. is the largest corporate criminal enterprise ever... the most pervasive money-laundering operation ...ever created for the likes of Manuel Noriega, Ferdinand Marcos, Saddam Hussein and the Columbian drugs lords."
B.C.C.I. Got into the U.S. banking industry by secretly buying the shares of First American Bank, whose chairman is Clark Clifford- a founder of the CIA.
According to sources, "B.C.C.I. was engaged in international bribery, blackmail, and assassination of government officials at the highest levels. The CIA used B.C.C.I. to facilitate funding of the Contras, illegal arms sales to Iran and Iraq as well as the arms supply to the Afghan resistance...
"B.C.C.I. maintained accounts for Contra leader Adolfo Calero and Sandanista leader, Daniel Ortega, as well as such disparate figures as Noriega, Saddam, Marcos, Adnan Khashoggi, the PLO, the Mossad and the governments of China, Argentina, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Syria and Peru."
The bank was seemingly financing both sides in a number of conflicts.
Who gained? The arms and drugs industries.
Cynics might say that wars help the ruling elites to stay in power.
And here are some strange 'facts' picked up from various sources:
The U.S. sold $50 billion dollars worth of weapons to Iraq before the first gulf war.
Libya was supplied with hundreds of Green Beret trainers and 42,000 lbs of C-4 plastic explosives prior to U.S. attacks on Libya.
The U.S financed the Kama River truck plant which produced the trucks for Russia's Afghanistan invasion and built the highways used by the Russian tanks.
The day General McArthur signed the peace treaty with Japan half the weapons stored on Okinawa were shipped to Ho Chi Minh and General Giap who met these shipments at the docks of Hai Phong harbor with Lucien Conein, the CIA case officer for Diem.
Jonathan Kwitny's book, The Crimes of Patriots, a True Tale of Dope, Dirty Money and the CIA, (Simon & Shuster 1987) is an expose of the alleged role of the CIA in the drugs business. Kwitny refers to the Nugan-Hand Bank- an Australian money laundering operation set up to facilitate Golden Triangle heroin trafficking. Major officers of the bank "included Admiral Buddy Yates (President), General Erle thingye, General Edwin Black, General LeRoy Manor, and ex-CIA Director, William Colby with other CIA affiliated persons too numerous to mention."

Ecuador, New Zealand, Australia.....
"Lange says US threatened to kill him."
That was the story from New Zealand's Independent newspapers Ltd on 27 March 2002.
Former US vice-president Dan Quayle reportedly told the Australian Cabinet that David lange, New Zealand Prime Minister from 1984-89, "would have to be liquidated."
Mr Lange made the claim in a television interview about the pressure put on him over New Zealand's anti-nuclear stance during his time as prime minister.
"There were personal pressures," he said. "There were veiled threats. There were specific threats. There were threats made to other countries. (It) was announced to the Australian Cabinet at one stage that I would have to be liquidated."
He said the announcement had been made by Mr Quayle during a visit to Australia in 1989.
Asked to repeat what Mr Quayle said, Mr Lange said: "I'd have to be liquidated."
Former New Zealand Labour Party president Bob Harvey suggested in 1999 that prime minister Norman Kirk had been poisoned by the CIA in 1974.

Their Kingdom Come: Inside the Secret World of Opus Dei, written by Robert Hutchison claims that Opus Dei were active in Chile through the Institute for General Studies which the CIA financed at the direction of President Nixon. It was that Institute that allegedly planned the coup against Allende by General Pinochet in 1973.
Not only did Pinochet have Opus Dei ministers in his regime, but also his foreign minister was later identified as a CIA agent by the LosAngeles Times, as reported by Penny Lernoux in her book, People of God.

5% swing from Labour to the Scottish National Party
Alex Salmond MP, Leader Scottish National Party:
"There have been four polls published in Scotland, bona fide polls... they show rising SNP support and one was published this week with a sample of double the MORI poll, showed a 5% swing from Labour to the SNP."
The Anglo-American elite will now try hard:
(1) to persuade people that the SNP are going to perform badly
(2) that the Scots are the only small nation in Europe that is too stupid to govern its own affairs
(3) to fix the polls.
Why is the establishment so keen to prevent Scotland from becoming independent and rich like its neighbours, Ireland, Denmark, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Finland, Austria, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland?
1. Scotland has oil.
2. Scotland has important military bases.
Faslane has the UK's Trident nuclear submarines.
Lossiemouth is the biggest UK base for tornado jet fighters.
Luce Bay is the testing site for cluster bombs.
Dundrennan is the open air depleted uranium testing site.
There are many communications and intelligence stations.
Luxembourg, Switzerland, Norway, Denmark, Iceland, Belgium, Ireland, Austria and the Netherlands are the richest countries in Europe (GNP per person). All these countries are small and independent.
Scotland can be as wealthy as these small countries if it gains its independence.
Scotland will be a highly prosperous nation if it has:
1. a low corporation tax
2. low business rates
3. an oil fund.
Scotland has many advantages:
1. It is a technologically advanced country
2. It has an ingenious and hard working population
3. It has a high level of social cohesion.
Scottish businesses, Scottish businessmen, and Scottish scientists are often world leaders.
Scholars have traced the beginnings of modern psychology, anthropology, the earth sciences and ideas on civil society and liberal education to Scottish thinkers.
Singapore was once a poor, third-world region. After gaining independence it grew rich.
Ireland was once a high unemployment, high debt, high emigration, low growth, little opportunity state. Now that Ireland is independent, and has introduced a low tax policy, there has been a huge increase in wealth, energy, enterprise, self-confidence, and employment.
In the past many Scots were brainwashed by the foreign-owned press into thinking that they were the only people in the world who were too stupid to be able to govern themselves.
A growing number of Scots are wakening up to the fact that small countries, like Slovenia, the Czech Republic and Estonia, become wealthier and happier when they gain their independence.
The elite are probably going to try to fix the polls?

Bohemian Grove and Paul Bonacci
http://www.pointblank-dm.com/cover.shtml
"The ..... film that Thompson allegedly made with Paul Bonacci is believed, based on Bonacci's description of the surroundings, to have been filmed at Bohemian Grove, a summer camp of sorts for the rich and powerful. Bohemian Grove is a secluded area outside Sacramento, Calif., where world leaders and dignitaries meet annually for a retreat that involves neo-pagan activities, including mock human sacrifices made before a large Owl statue referred to as "Moloch." While conducting this ritual, which they call "The Cremation of Care," participants are dressed in druid robes and chant and sing before Moloch."

Since 1873, the Global Elite Has Held Secret Meetings in the Ancient Redwood Forest of Northern California. Members of the so-called "Bohemian Club" Include Former Presidents Eisenhower, Nixon and Reagan. The Bush Family Maintains a Strong Involvement. Each Year at Bohemian Grove, Members of This All-Male "Club" Don Red, Black and Silver Robes and Conduct an Occult Ritual Wherein They Worship a Giant Stone Owl, Sacrificing a Human Being in Effigy to What They Call the "Great Owl of Bohemia."

The Congo and Israel
http://www.jewishsf.com/bk010803/ip41a.shtml
JESSICA STEINBERG, of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, has written about changes in the diamond business.
Steinberg notes that Israel sells 50 percent of all the stones worldwide.
95 percent of the world's rough diamonds are marketed by the De Beers Group.
Most of the rough diamonds come from Africa - often from Angola, Sierra Leone and Congo - where rebel movements finance their wars by selling diamonds.
Not so long ago, the Congo appointed IDI Diamonds, an Israel company, as the sole purchaser of all its uncut diamonds.
Then the Congo's President, Laurent Kabila, was assassinated. His son Joseph took over. The Congo suddenly revoked IDI's monopoly over diamond exports.
A United Nations report had called the IDI deal a disaster, saying IDI had paid too little. The deal had also driven much of the Congo's diamond trade underground.
IDI's deal allegedly included getting Israeli military experts to train a Congolese force.
Israel has been accused of involvement with the Congolese rebel movement.

DR Congo has had a five-year war; three million died, mostly through starvation, disease.
Eastern regions are still plagued by militia violence
In the five-year war, government forces, supported by Angola, Namibia and Zimbabwe, fought against rebels backed by Uganda and Rwanda.
Fighting was fuelled by the country's vast mineral wealth.

Yitzhak Danon of Globes (Israel) has written about a lawsuit which claims there was corruption in a Congo diamonds for arms deal.
A former Anti-Terrorism Unit officer alleges senior Israeli military, business, and political figures were involved.
The lawsuit alleges that Dan Gertler asked a former president of the Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire) for a diamond mining franchise.

Britain and 9 11 : Sir David Manning was in Washington on 9 11
John Scarlett took over as chairman of the UK's Joint Intelligence Committee a few days before 9 11.
On 31 July the Times disclosed that Sir David Manning was in the United States on Sept 11.
The Guardian described Manning as Britain's 'national security adviser' ".
The BBC said that Manning was "head of the cabinet office defence and overseas secretariat" and was already "well known and respected in the White House".
Manning, like Jack Straw, is believed to be of Jewish origin.
Manning met with Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage on September 10th.
Armitage allegedly has been involved in covert operations with the CIA, 'including illegal arms and drug running on behalf of the US government'.
A report by the US National Bureau of Asian Research cites an article in the Washington Times 28 July 1997 which lists Armitage, along with Dick Cheney, as having business or consulting interests in the Caspian zone.
General Mahmoud, the head of Pakistan's intelligence services, the ISI, 'happened' (according to the BBC) to be in Washington at the same time as Sir David Manning.
The head of the ISI is a Pakistani appointment which, by treaty, requires the approval of the CIA. In effect the post is a CIA appointment.
According to the Times of India 9 October, Mahmoud had ordered Ahmad Omar Sheikh to send $100,000 to Mohammad Atta, sometime prior to 9 11.
Mahmoud was meeting with the CIA and senior members of the Bush administration immediately before, during and after the 9 11 attacks.
As the Times of India put it: "A direct link between the ISI and the WTC attacks could have enormous repercussions."
The Mail on Sunday 14 October 2001 confirms that: "Condoleeza Rice, a key member of the Bush war cabinet, is in regular contact with Sir David Manning, Blair's National Security Adviser.... It is Manning, Campbell and Blair's chief of staff, Jonathan Powell, who are seen as the Prime Minister's real war cabinet."

Who to vote for in the UK
9 11 was almost certainly the work of fascist elements within western governments and was not the work of the people of Afghanistan. http://aangirfan.blogspot.com/2005/03/9-11.html
After 9 11, the majority of UK members of parliament voted to bomb Afghanistan and could possibly be described as 'war criminals'?
On 2 November 2001, a total of 13 MPs voted against the war in Afghanistan. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/1631501.stm
Welsh and Scottish nationalists joined with the the following Labour rebels for the vote against the war:
Diane Abbott
Jeremy Corbyn
Tam Dalyell
George Galloway
Lynne Jones
Bob Marshall-Andrews
lan Simpson
Mike Wood
A further four MPs, three Labour and one Plaid Cymru, who acted as tellers in the vote, also opposed the government.
Brian Sedgemore attacked Prime Minister Tony Blair's tone in talking about the action.
"He should stop being so damned preachy about the alleged moral superiority of this backward, fractious island of ours off the coast of north west Europe whose culture sometimes seems to me to be close to irreversible decline."
Shadow defence secretary Bernard Jenkin stressed the full support of the Conservatives for the military action.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Saddam Hussein, as an asset of the CIA, was put into power by the CIA.
http://aangirfan.blogspot.com/2005/03/saddam-worked-for-cia.html
He could have been toppled without a war, just as CIA assets Marcos and Suharto were toppled without a war. The US intention in Iraq sems to be 1. to make lots of money by having a war 2. to control the oil 3. to set up military bases 4. to make Iraq as divided and weak as possible.
Which MPs voted on the rebel amendment saying there was no moral case for war against Iraq? http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/2862397.stm
139 Labour MPs rebelled against the government's line and supported the amendment.
15 Tory MPs also defied their leadership by voting against the government's policy.
All 53 Liberal Democrat MPs voted against the government - in line with their leadership.

After 9 11, the majority of UK members of parliament voted to bomb Afghanistan and could possibly be described as 'war criminals'?
On 2 November 2001, a total of 13 MPs voted against the war in Afghanistan. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/1631501.stm
Welsh and Scottish nationalists joined with the the following Labour rebels for the vote against the war:
Diane Abbott
Jeremy Corbyn
Tam Dalyell
George Galloway
Lynne Jones
Bob Marshall-Andrews
lan Simpson
Mike Wood
A further four MPs, three Labour and one Plaid Cymru, who acted as tellers in the vote, also opposed the government.
Brian Sedgemore attacked Prime Minister Tony Blair's tone in talking about the action.
"He should stop being so damned preachy about the alleged moral superiority of this backward, fractious island of ours off the coast of north west Europe whose culture sometimes seems to me to be close to irreversible decline."
Shadow defence secretary Bernard Jenkin stressed the full support of the Conservatives for the military action.

Saddam Hussein, as an asset of the CIA, was put into power by the CIA.
http://aangirfan.blogspot.com/2005/03/saddam-worked-for-cia.html
He could have been toppled without a war, just as CIA assets Marcos and Suharto were toppled without a war. The US intention in Iraq sems to be 1. to make lots of money by having a war 2. to control the oil 3. to set up military bases 4. to make Iraq as divided and weak as possible.

Cuba & Venezuela face the US and Colombia
http://www.counterpunch.org/
JAMES PETRAS recently wrote in Counterpunch about the US strategy towards Cuba
According to Petras, the US aims to deal with Cuba by:
1. overthrowing Chavez in Venezuela
2. cutting off the energy and trade links which Venezuela has to Cuba
3. carrying out a military attack.
The US strategy could involve a US-Colombian attack of Venezuela backed by internal terrorists and the ruling class.
According to Petras:
1. Washington and Colombia have greatly strengthened military bases surrounding the Venezuelan border.
2. "Trial military incursions involving both Colombian military and paramilitary forces have occurred on a regular basis testing Venezuelan defenses".
3. The US has given nearly $3 billion dollars in military aid to Colombia.
4. Washington has:
A. recruited the Gutierrez regime in Ecuador,
B. invaded Haiti,
C. set up military bases in Peru and the Dominican Republic.
According to Petras, the US aims to use a "triangular strategy" to overthrow Chavez in Venezuela:
1. A military invasion from Colombia,
2. US intervention (air and sea attacks plus special forces to assassinate key officials)
3. An internal uprising by infiltrated terrorists and military traitors, supported by key media, financial and petrol elites.
Petras argues that:
1. the Chavez regime is popular with the mass of the people.
2. The Colombian regime faces 20,000 veteran guerrilla fighters and millions of Colombians sympathetic to Venezuela.

POOR GET POORER IN UK
http://scotlandonsunday.scotsman.com/index.cfm?id=352502005
BRITAIN’s poorest 10% of families are growing poorer, according to official figures: a 357-page Department of Work & Pensions (DWP) document.
The real income of the poorest -
£91 per week in 2001-02
£88 by April 2004.
The study shows that the total income of the poorest 10% was:
3% of the UK total in 1997-98
2.8% in 2003-04.
The DWP data shows that the poorest 10% have consistently suffered since Labour came to power in 1997, with their income falling in most of the past seven years.
A recent report by the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) suggesting that the average British household had seen a slide in income for the first time since the recession of the early 1990s.

BRITAIN’S richest people have had a £150 billion increase in wealth since Tony Blair came to power, according to The Sunday Times Rich List .
The rise in wealth among the country’s richest 1,000 people — from £99 billion in 1997 to £250 billion this year — is a 152% increase.
The country’s tichest 50 people increased their wealth by 29.7% last year.
Some of the biggest winners are those who have given money to the Labour Party, such as Lord Drayson, who made his fortune from pharmaceuticals.

David Leigh and Rob Evans, in the 29 June 2004 Guardian, reported:
Lord Drayson made an estimated £20m for his company Powderject from the government's hasty purchase of smallpox vaccine in the wake of the 'terrorist' attacks on September 11 2001.
Documents show how Lord Drayson gained a crucial early advantage in winning the contract by securing a deal with the only manufacturer able to supply the vaccine quickly.
"Lord Drayson gave a second £50,000 donation to the Labour party while the government was deciding who should be handed the contract. He was also invited to a private Downing Street breakfast on December 6 2001 for a small group of businessmen, just as Whitehall officials were deciding they would go ahead and opt for one particular type of vaccine, the Lister strain."
The Lister strain has been used (since 1996) by the Israeli government to protect their armed forces.

It was recently revealed (Robin Ramsay’s The Rise of New Labour) that when Blair became a candidate for the leadership of the Labour Party in 1994, Gideon Meir, a senior official at the Israeli Embassy in London, introduced him to Michael Levy (an extremely wealthy Jewish businessmen). Levy agreed to help Blair to become leader of the party. Levy, with the help of four other Jewish businessmen (Sir Emmanuel Kaye, Sir Trevor Chinn, Maurice Hatter, and David Goldman) provided Blair with £7m. This paid for his campaign plus the running of his private office. This money allowed Blair to become independent of Labour Party funding.

Cardinal Schoenborn and Zionism
http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?pagename=JPost/JPArticle/ShowFull&cid=1112152825625
http://www.rense.com/general63/papl.htm
Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn is the Archbishop of Vienna.
The Jerusalem Post, 1 April 2005, claims that Schoenborn "delivered a strong message in favour of Jewish settlement in the Holy Land on Wednesday night, rejecting the claim that European Christians' support for the State of Israel is based on Holocaust guilt and saying that all Christians should affirm Zionism as a biblical imperative for the Jewish people."
Archbishop of Vienna Cardinal Schoenborn was speaking at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem on the topic of "God's chosen land."
Schoenborn said: "Only once in human history did God take a country as an inheritance and give it to His chosen people," Christians, Schoenborn said, should rejoice in the return of Jews to the Holy Land as the fulfillment of biblical prophecy.
(One assumes this Jerusalem Post story was not an April Fool joke)
http://www.guardian.co.uk/international/story/0,3604,1450759,00.html
Christoph Schönborn, 60, is from an upper class Bohemian family. John Paul II got him to prepare the document that sets out the church's official teaching.
He had to handle a scandal involving his predecessor, Cardinal Hans Hermann Groer, who was accused of paedophilia.
He is not popular in Austria, where he has been accused of 'being shifty and evasive in personal dealings'. His health is suspect.
(The Cardinal Groer scandal began in 1998 when a former seminary student said Groer, his religion instructor, had abused him repeatedly in the early 1970s. The student said he decided to go public after hearing Groer declare that those who abuse children would not "inherit heaven.' Other former students at the all-male high school at Hollabrunn, 40 miles north of Vienna, came forward with similar charges. State prosecutors never became involved because the statute of limitations for sexual abuse of a minor had long since expired.)

Kyrgyzstan, drugs and the CIA
Kyrgyzstan has oil, gas and heroin.
Reportedly, in 2005, the USA helped topple Kyrgyzstan's president Akayev.
John Laughland, in the Guardian April 1, 2005, wrote about US-backed coups in the former USSR and the mythology of people power.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/comment/story/0,3604,1449869,00.html
President Askar Akayev of Kyrgyzstan has attacked:
1. The "prevailing influence" of the US in the "anti-constitutional coup" which overthrew him.
2. Those who are stirring up trouble in the drug-ridden Ferghana Valley.
3. The criminal "third force", linked to the drug mafia, which is struggling to gain power.
The term 'third force' was used to describe covert operatives shoring up apartheid in South Africa. It may also remind people of US-backed coups in Central America and former soviet republics.
Michael Kozak, former US ambassador to Belarus, boasted that he was doing in Belarus exactly what he had been doing in Nicaragua: "supporting democracy".
In Kyrgyzstan, US ambassador Stephen Young, has denied government claims that the US is interfering in Kyrgyzstan's internal affairs.
Kyrgyzstan is the largest recipient of US aid in central Asia and it is filled with "American-sponsored NGOs". In previous years it invited in the US military.
Freedom House, chaired by former CIA director James Woolsey, was a major sponsor of the orange revolution in Ukraine.
Freedom House set up a printing press in Kyrgyzstan in November 2003, which prints 60 opposition journals. The US also supports opposition radio and TV.
In Kyrgyzstan a key element in regime change was played by members of the Kyrgyz security services, 'whose loyalty is easily bought'.
The US has strategic interests in Kyrgyzstan.
Freedom House is reportedly friendly with the Islamist fundamentalist movement Hizb ut-Tahrir. This worries the Chinese who have Muslim unrest in their western provinces.
Akayev was seen as being a friend of the US. But he was toppled when 'things went wrong'.

The shooting of the Pope; the CIA and the Mafia.
http://www.chss.montclair.edu/english/furr/essays/popeshooting.html
Grover C Furr wrote about 'The Politics Behind the Shooting of the Pope' in Comment, Montclair State College, NJ, in 1983.
Pope John Paul II was shot on May 13, 1981 by a young Turk, Mehmet Ali Acga.
Agca was a member of the 'fascist' GREY WOLVES, the military wing of Turkey's National Action Party (NAP). The Grey Wolves are alleged to have links to the CIA.
Cedar Celebi, head of the NAP in West Germany, was arrested in West Germany on November 1, 1982, and charged with giving Acga money and weapons to kill the Pope.
Sometime prior to the shooting of the Pope, Acga confessed to the murder of a newspaper editor. Acga reportedly carried out that murder at the request of the NAP’s founder, Col. Arpaslan Turkes.
Acga was put on trial for the murder of the editor. Documents from Acga's trial revealed apparent NAP contacts with West German intelligence. West German intelligence was formed by the U.S. after World War II from ex-Nazis and members of Hitler’s intelligence corps. It has always worked closely with the CIA. The trial documents also show the NAP has been involved with Turkish ex-members of the Nazi SS battalions.
Newspapers and journalists with alleged CIA connections tried to blame Russia for the shooting of the Pope. Michael Ledeen in Il Giornale Nuovo blamed the Soviets. Robert Moss in the Economist Foreign Report blamed the Soviets.
Why might the CIA have turned against the Pope?
Pope John Paul II had tried to restrain the fascist leaders of Solidarnosc. The Church had urged non-violence and cooperation with the Polish government. The Pope had held talks with the PLO. The Pope had shown increased toleration for the activist clergy of Central America. The Pope had agreed to visit Nicaragua which had a Sandinista government. The Pope had created the first Soviet Cardinal acceptable to the Kremlin and resident within the USSR.
John Paul II seemed to have upset the neo-fascists in Europe and America.
Was the CIA behind the shooting of the Pope?
Allegedly, Turkey's National Action Party (NAP) and the Vatican 'support competing sides in the international heroin traffic'.
Reportedly, the NAP 'uses a route through Sofia, Bulgaria to supply the burgeoning European heroin market'.
They are, according to the Rome newspaper La Repubblica of March 1, 1982, in 'direct competition' with the Italian mafia, the major heroin suppliers to the U.S. through Latin America.
Michele Sindona, "God’s banker", owed his meteoric rise in the financial world to his personal friendship with Pope Paul VI. Three Vatican Cardinals volunteered to testify for Sindona at his New York trial in 1980.
According to Carlo Bordoni, Sindona’s co-defendant, Sindona "was one of the mafia’s bankers, the route through which organized crime money passes across the Atlantic."
Ex-New York Times reporter Richard Hammer revealed in The Vatican Connection (Holt, Rinehart, and Winston, 1982) how, in 1971, Pope Paul VI’s closest associate, Eugène Cardinal Tisserant, 'set up a $950 million phony securities fraud with mafia help; Cardinal Marcinkus, head of the Vatican Bank, was the bag-man.'
Vatican links to the mafia are commonly discussed in the Italian press.
Thus the Turkish fascist NAP could have had their own reasons for wanting to see the Pope out of action.

The Pope, the Vatican and the CIA
http://www.puritans.net/bookreviewingodsname.htm
http://rigorousintuition.blogspot.com/2004/08/yellow-cake-and-black-shirts.html
The book 'In God's Name' by David Yallop is about the alleged murder of Albino Luciani, Pope John Paul I, in 1978.
Why might John Paul I have been murdered?
According to Yallop this was partly because John Paul I was intending to excommunicate 100 top-ranking Vatican officials who were Freemasons.
Several of these Freemasons were allegedly co-conspirators in the Vatican Bank scandal, in which 2.4 billion US dollars were reportedly embezzled from the bank.
The masterminds of this bank crime were reportedly members of Italy's P2 masonic society.
Barbara Honnegar, author of 'October Surprise' believes that both Alexander Haig and Henry Kissinger were key members of P2.
P2 was reportedly a fascist movement with links to the mafia.
After John Paul I's death:
1) Karol Wojtlya, allegedly the CIA's candidate, was elected as John Paul II.
2) John Paul II reportedly "sat" on the banking scandal.
3) Ronald Reagan allegedly bailed out the Vatican Bank with $300 million of "discretionary CIA funds."
4) Church canon law was changed in 1982 so that membership in the Freemasons was no longer grounds for excommunication from the Church of Rome.
There was no autopsy performed on John Paul I.
Reportedly, many members of "P2", the secret Masonic society, carry with them a fatal dose of digitalis - on the advice of the society's founder, Licio Gelli.
In 1982, P2 member Roberto Calvi was found hanged under Blackfriars Bridge in London, shortly before 1 billion dollars was found to be missing from the Vatican-owned Banco Ambrosiano.
Some think the Mafia murdered him. Others think that Gelli, the Grand Master of P2, had him murdered. Others think that the secret society so highly thought of by John Paul II - Opus Dei, did it.
Many of the CIA are reportedly members of Opus Dei.

From Barbara Honegger's 'October Surprise':
When the Italian police raided (P2 Lodge founder) Gelli's home in March 1981, it was Michael Ledeen who, at the instigation of Alexander Haig and Henry Kissinger, offered to buy the list of 953 P2 members in an apparent attempt to keep it from becoming public.
Henry Kissinger had reportedly sent Ledeen to Italy to try to squash an investigation into his and Haig's involvement in the founding of P2.
Some of Ledeen's own words, on a leadership trait he admires, from his book Universal Fascism:In order to achieve the most noble accomplishments, the leader may have to 'enter into evil.' This is the chilling insight that has made Machiavelli so feared, admired and challenging... we are rotten.... It’s true that we can achieve greatness if, and only if, we are properly led.

Michael Aquino, alleged child sex abuse and the United States military
http://www.meta-religion.com/Esoterism/Satanism/church_of_set.htm
"Michael Aquino joined the Church of Satan in 1969, while he was in the US Army as a psychological operations specialist.
"In 1975... Aquino and 28 fellow Church of Satan members left the group and founded their own church, the Temple of Set...
"In 1986... Charges of child molestation surfaced at the day-care center at Presidio Army Base, where Lt. Col. Aquino was assigned. Gary Hambright, a day-care worker, was charged with 12 counts of sodomy, oral copulation, and lewd conduct. Aquino... was identified by some of the children as possibly being another man who had participated in the molestations. However, no formal charges were ever brought against Aquino, and the case against Hambright was later dismissed."

Jeffrey Steinberg has written about Satanism and the U.S. Military:
On February 5, 1999, in the U.S. District Court in Lincoln, Nebraska, Paul Bonacci claimed that he had been ritualistically abused by Lawrence E King, as part of a nationwide pedophile ring linked to powerful political figures in Washington and to elements of the U.S. military and intelligence establishment.
On February 27, Judge Warren K. Urbom ordered King to pay $1 million in damages to Bonacci, in what Bonacci's attorney John DeCamp said was a clear signal that "the evidence presented was credible."
During the February 5 hearing, Noreen Gosch gave the court sworn testimony linking U.S. Army Lt. Col. Michael Aquino (ret.) to the nationwide pedophile ring. Her son, Johnny, then 12 years old, was kidnapped off the streets of West Des Moines, Iowa on September 5, 1982, while he was doing his early-morning newspaper deliveries.
Noreen Gosch said: "This ... was an offshoot of a government program. The MK-Ultra program was developed in the 1950s by the CIA... There was a man by the name of Michael Aquino. He was in the military. He had top Pentagon clearances. He was a pedophile... he was a close friend of Anton LaVey. The two of them were very active in ritualistic sexual abuse. And they deferred funding from this government program to use [in] this experimentation on children.
"Where they deliberately split off the personalities of these children into multiples, so that when they're questioned or put under oath or questioned under lie detector, that unless the operator knows how to question a multiple-personality disorder, they turn up with no evidence."
"They used these kids to sexually compromise politicians or anyone else they wish to have control of. This sounds so far out and so bizarre I had trouble accepting it in the beginning myself until I was presented with the data. We have the proof. In black and white."

Aquino, according to his official biography, circulated by the Temple, was a “Lieutenant Colonel, Military Intelligence, U.S. Army.”
"Paul Bonacci ... positively identified Aquino as an associate of King who was known to Bonacci and the rest of the children only as 'the Colonel.'
"King's former personal photographer, Rusty Nelson, has identified Aquino as the man to whom he saw King hand over a suitcase full of cash and bonds.
"Rusty Nelson, has also said that he was told by King that Aquino was part of the Contra guns and cocaine trafficking operation run by George Bush and another notorious Lt. Col. named Oliver North.
"Aquino has also been linked to Offutt Air Force Base, a Strategic Air Command post near Omaha that was implicated in the investigation by the Franklin Committee...
"Aquino was also claimed to have ordered the abduction of a Des Moines, Iowa paperboy...
"In July 1988... the San Jose Mercury News ran a lengthy exposé on the Presidio Child Development Center run by the U.S. Army in San Francisco. Allegations of abuse being perpetrated at the center first emerged in November 1986. Alarmed by accusations made by her child, a parent had sought a medical examination that confirmed that her three-year-old boy had in fact been anally raped...
"Within a year, at least sixty additional victims had been identified... Many of the children also spoke of having guns pointed at them and of being told that they and/or their parents and siblings would be killed if they told anyone what had been done to them...
"Five of the children had contracted chlamydia, a sexually transmitted disease; many others showed clear signs of anal and genital trauma consistent with violent penetration...
"One mother complained to the San Francisco Chronicle that the FBI never interviewed her or her son, even after doctors had confirmed the boy’s abuse...
"The American Journal of Orthopsychiatry noted in April 1992, the 'severity of the trauma for children at the Presidio was immediately manifest in clear cut symptoms. Before the abuse was exposed, parents had already noticed the following changes in their children: vaginal discharge, genital soreness, rashes, fear of the dark, sleep disturbances, nightmares, sexually provocative language, and sexually inappropriate behavior. In addition, the children were exhibiting other radical changes in behavior, including temper outbursts, sudden mood shifts, and poor impulse control. All these behavioral symptoms are to be expected in preschool children who have been molested...'
"One child positively identified Aquino and his wife, Lilith (known to the kids as 'Mikey' and 'Shamby'), and was also able to identify the Aquinos’ private home and to describe with considerable accuracy the distinctively satanic interior décor of the house. The young witness claimed to have been photographed at the Aquinos’ home. On August 14, 1987, a search warrant was served on the house. Confiscated in the raid were numerous videotapes, photographs, photo albums, photographic negatives, cassette tapes, and name and address books. Also observed was what appeared to be a soundproof room.
"Neither of the Aquinos was charged with any crimes...
"The U.S. Attorney in San Francisco handling the case was Joseph Russoniello. Russoniello would later be identified by reporter Gary Webb (of the San Jose Mercury News) as a player in the Contra cocaine smuggling operation led by Lt. Col. Oliver North and company, just as witnesses would later identify Lt. Col. Michael Aquino as an operative in the very same sordid affair.

Jeffrey Steinberg has written about Satanism and the U.S. Military:
On February 5, 1999, in the U.S. District Court in Lincoln, Nebraska, Paul Bonacci claimed that he had been ritualistically abused by Lawrence E King, as part of a nationwide pedophile ring linked to powerful political figures in Washington and to elements of the U.S. military and intelligence establishment.
On February 27, Judge Warren K. Urbom ordered King to pay $1 million in damages to Bonacci, in what Bonacci's attorney John DeCamp said was a clear signal that "the evidence presented was credible."
During the February 5 hearing, Noreen Gosch gave the court sworn testimony linking U.S. Army Lt. Col. Michael Aquino (ret.) to the nationwide pedophile ring. Her son, Johnny, then 12 years old, was kidnapped off the streets of West Des Moines, Iowa on September 5, 1982, while he was doing his early-morning newspaper deliveries.
Noreen Gosch said: "This ... was an offshoot of a government program. The MK-Ultra program was developed in the 1950s by the CIA... There was a man by the name of Michael Aquino. He was in the military. He had top Pentagon clearances. He was a pedophile... he was a close friend of Anton LaVey. The two of them were very active in ritualistic sexual abuse. And they deferred funding from this government program to use [in] this experimentation on children.
"Where they deliberately split off the personalities of these children into multiples, so that when they're questioned or put under oath or questioned under lie detector, that unless the operator knows how to question a multiple-personality disorder, they turn up with no evidence."
"They used these kids to sexually compromise politicians or anyone else they wish to have control of. This sounds so far out and so bizarre I had trouble accepting it in the beginning myself until I was presented with the data. We have the proof. In black and white."

Aquino, according to his official biography, circulated by the Temple, was a “Lieutenant Colonel, Military Intelligence, U.S. Army.”
"Paul Bonacci ... positively identified Aquino as an associate of King who was known to Bonacci and the rest of the children only as 'the Colonel.'
"King's former personal photographer, Rusty Nelson, has identified Aquino as the man to whom he saw King hand over a suitcase full of cash and bonds.
"Rusty Nelson, has also said that he was told by King that Aquino was part of the Contra guns and cocaine trafficking operation run by George Bush and another notorious Lt. Col. named Oliver North.
"Aquino has also been linked to Offutt Air Force Base, a Strategic Air Command post near Omaha that was implicated in the investigation by the Franklin Committee...
"Aquino was also claimed to have ordered the abduction of a Des Moines, Iowa paperboy...
"In July 1988... the San Jose Mercury News ran a lengthy exposé on the Presidio Child Development Center run by the U.S. Army in San Francisco. Allegations of abuse being perpetrated at the center first emerged in November 1986. Alarmed by accusations made by her child, a parent had sought a medical examination that confirmed that her three-year-old boy had in fact been anally raped...
"Within a year, at least sixty additional victims had been identified... Many of the children also spoke of having guns pointed at them and of being told that they and/or their parents and siblings would be killed if they told anyone what had been done to them...
"Five of the children had contracted chlamydia, a sexually transmitted disease; many others showed clear signs of anal and genital trauma consistent with violent penetration...
"One mother complained to the San Francisco Chronicle that the FBI never interviewed her or her son, even after doctors had confirmed the boy’s abuse...
"The American Journal of Orthopsychiatry noted in April 1992, the 'severity of the trauma for children at the Presidio was immediately manifest in clear cut symptoms. Before the abuse was exposed, parents had already noticed the following changes in their children: vaginal discharge, genital soreness, rashes, fear of the dark, sleep disturbances, nightmares, sexually provocative language, and sexually inappropriate behavior. In addition, the children were exhibiting other radical changes in behavior, including temper outbursts, sudden mood shifts, and poor impulse control. All these behavioral symptoms are to be expected in preschool children who have been molested...'
"One child positively identified Aquino and his wife, Lilith (known to the kids as 'Mikey' and 'Shamby'), and was also able to identify the Aquinos’ private home and to describe with considerable accuracy the distinctively satanic interior décor of the house. The young witness claimed to have been photographed at the Aquinos’ home. On August 14, 1987, a search warrant was served on the house. Confiscated in the raid were numerous videotapes, photographs, photo albums, photographic negatives, cassette tapes, and name and address books. Also observed was what appeared to be a soundproof room.
"Neither of the Aquinos was charged with any crimes...
"The U.S. Attorney in San Francisco handling the case was Joseph Russoniello. Russoniello would later be identified by reporter Gary Webb (of the San Jose Mercury News) as a player in the Contra cocaine smuggling operation led by Lt. Col. Oliver North and company, just as witnesses would later identify Lt. Col. Michael Aquino as an operative in the very same sordid affair.
"In May 1989, Aquino was again questioned in connection with child abuse investigations; this time, at least five children in three cities were making the accusations. The children had seen Aquino in newspaper and television coverage of the Presidio case and immediately recognized him as one of their abusers...

Christian evangelicals and the CIA
Http://www.rense.com/general20/unholy.htm
Rense has an article about CIA links to Christian evangelical leaders in the USA.
Nearly all the top Christian evangelicals in the USA apparently have connections with the Rev. Sun Myung Moon. The CIA allegedly has links to Moon. http://www.counterpunch.org/madsen01142003.html
Moon, the Moonies, and the Unification Church have been accused of being involved with mind control.
Moon apparently claims that Jesus failed and that Moon is the new messiah.
Jerry Falwell reportedly ‘admits that he accepted 2.5 million dollars from Moon in 1994’.
Falwell has spoken at many Moon meetings.
Falwell is not the only evangelical reported to have accepted money from Rev. Moon.
One 'Moon sponsored' organization is the Council for National Policy founded in 1981 by evangelist Tim LaHaye. ‘It is reported that he received $500,000 from a Mr. Bo Hi Pak, Moon’s number one man, and a former Korean CIA officer’.
"Many Evangelical, Pentecostal, Charismatic, Catholic, Mormon and other ecumenically-minded leaders are members of the Council for National Policy, the 500+ member organization which plans the strategy of the Religious Right in the United States."
Members of the CNP have included: Pat Robertson, founder of the Christian Broadcasting Network, and Oliver North, formerly with the National Security Council.
Members have also reportedly included:
* Ron Godwin, Former Vice President of Falwells Moral Majority, Sr Vice President of the Moon owned Washington times
* Allan Gottleib, Board Member of Moons front group, the American Freedom Coalition. ‘In 1983 the Moon group CAUSA, founded by Bo Hi Pak, former Korean CIA and liaison to the American CIA, and Moons right hand man, granted Gottleib an all expense paid trip to Jamaica for a CAUSA conference.’
* J. Peter Grace, Council of Foreign Relations, Knights of Malta, ‘and worked with the CIA to remove classified info concerning former Nazi scientists so that they could immigrate into the U.S., supposedly so they could carry on their work (including mind control projects) in the USA.’
* Lt. General Daniel Graham (CNP Board of Governors) Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, Deputy Director CIA.
* Max Hugel (CNP Member) Former special assistant CIA Deputy Director for Administration, and Deputy Director for Operations
One of the National Religious Broadcasters is Pat Robertson whose activities reportedly include: "support for the slaughter of thousands of Indians by a Guatemalan dictator; public praise for the reputed leader of Salvadoran death squads; collaboration with murky U.S. mercenary groups; and the provision of chaplains and funds to the contra army seeking to topple the government of Nicaragua...". Http://www.skepticfiles.org/weird/patr.htm
Pat Robertson’s Christian Broadcasting Network organised Operation Blessing. This operation reportedly helped supply goods to the Contras. The head of Operation Blessing was Captain Robert Warren, who was also formerly associated with a CIA group called "Operation Phoenix." Allegedly this was an assassination group that operated in Vietnam. Also associated with this group was Oliver North.
The Washington Post has claimed that the former leader of Liberia, Charles Taylor, received at least $1 million for providing sanctuary to bin Laden agents in the weeks following the September 11, 2001 attacks Http://www.atheists.org/flash.line/faith49.htm
Pat Robertson had an agreement with Taylor's government to operate a mining business known as Freedom Gold Ltd. Taylor helped Robertson's ministry organize giant prayer rallies.
In Zaire, Robertson gained extensive land and mining concessions for his African Development Corporation. The CIA and Robertson seemed to be supporters of Zairian strong man Mobutu.
One Moon associated group is called the 'Council of 56 of the Religious Roundtable'. This group allegedly connects leading Moon associated evangelicals to the CIA.
Reportedly, Govt Connections to this group include:
Major General George J. Keegan, Jr., chief of the U.S. Air Defense Intelligence and member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, worked for the CIA from 1963-1966
General Daniel Graham (ret.) In 1973 Graham served as a deputy to CIA Director William Colby and from 1974-1976 he was the director of the Defense Intelligence Agency
Groups belonging to the Roundtable include: The Christian Broadcasting Network, Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, Moral Majority, Christian Voice, National Religious Broadcasters, National Association of Evangelicals, Gideon Bible, Wycliffe Bible Associates...
Billy Graham
In "The Deadly Deception", by Jim Shaw, an ex-33rd degree mason (Masons are believed by many to be the driving force behind the NWO), Shaw reportedly relates how Graham was present at his ceremony initiating him into the 33rd degree.
In the book, Thy Will Be Done, Gerard Colby and Charlotte Dennett explain the association between the CIA and Christian missionaries. http://www.finalcall.com/perspectives/sudan_cia05-15-2001.htm
Colby and Dennett detail the Wycliffe Bible Translator's alleged ties to the CIA the intelligence community.
The link between the CIA and missionary groups 'was quite often the US Agency for International Development (AID)'.
'President Nixon's director of AID, John Hannah, admitted publicly that AID had funded CIA operations in Laos, and subsequent revelations pointed to CIA-AID collaboration in Ecuador, Uruguay, Thailand and the Philippines.'
World Vision reportedly has links to the CIA. http://www.oilempire.us/reagan.html
World Vision "ran the refugee camp in Sabra-Shatilla where the fascist Phalange were allowed in to kill the Palestinians... They ran the Cuban and Thai refugee camps in the United States.
"Mark David Chapman, who eventually shot John Lennon, worked at the Thai refugee camps out in Arkansas that World Vision operated there. They ran these camps brutally, forcing people into political education against Castro, refusing to feed people, beating people... The chairman of the board for some period was John W. Hinkley Sr.. The son worked at Fort Chafey at the Thai refugee camps. There were pictures of him after the Reagan shooting running in his World Vision T-shirt around the edge of the camp...Scott was already doing the wheeling and dealing and was tight with Neil Bush..."
The Jonestown Massacre: allegedly “Jonestown” was part of a CIA mind-control program: the CIA infiltrated The People’s Temple, to carry out their experiments. CIA theorists claim that Jim Jones had many questionable associations with the CIA throughout the years he was establishing The People’s Temple. The Temple had a strong association with the World Vision organisation that many believe to be another CIA front. http://www.crimelibrary.com/notorious_murders/mass/jonestown/connections_5.html?sect=8
"Jim Jones had a very interesting past which was overlooked by the media: Jones was ... sent to Brazil where his house, transportation and groceries were provided to him by the U.S. Embassy, and he frequently traveled to Belo Horizonte, the CIA headquarters in Brazil.
"Jones had been contacted in Ukiah by 'Christian missionaries' from World Vision (World Vision is a CIA controlled front operation), an evangelical order which had performed espionage work for the CIA in Southeast Asia." http://www.subversiveelement.com/Firefromsky20.html

Twin Towers - controlled explosion
http://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/forum.cgi?read=67173
Jim Marrs, author of Inside Job: Unmasking the 9/11 Conspiracies, believes that 9/11 was an "inside job."
His examines Jim Hoffman's research into the idea that explosives caused the collapse of the twin towers.
Marrs gives us several arguments which (1) disprove the official version of a fire-induced gravity collapse and (2) show that explosives in the towers' cores brought down the 47 central support columns.
The towers' cores were obliterated. Only explosives can explain the pulverization of concrete and the thrusting of girders hundreds of feet from the towers.
Videos and photographs show explosions occurring well below the level of the collapse.
The 'undamaged' parts of the towers failed to slow the collapses. This indicates that "nearly all resistance to the downward acceleration of the tops had been eliminated ahead of them," Hoffman says.
AFP reported an eyewitness to the collapse seeing "a number of brief light sources being emitted from inside the building between floors 10 and 15" accompanied by "a crackling sound" before the tower fell.
During the recent "Confronting the Evidence" conference held in New York City, a person who worked in the North Tower told AFP that prior to 9/11, elevator shafts were guarded by security guards while being "out-of-service" for "weeks and months."

"The xxxx people will obtain world dominion"
It would be good if Moslems intermarried with Jews, and if Catholics intermarried with Protestants, and if Ndebele intermarried with Shona.
It would be good if , within each country, the media and other important institutions were not dominated by one particular tribe.
It would be good if all of society adopted a belief system which encouraged compassion, moderation and humility.
In Zimbabwe, the Ndebele tribe fear that the Shona tribe, together with its its allies, will obtain total control of the country.
There was a time when it was feared that the Japanese would take over a large part of the world.
To some people in South East Asia, it may seem that it is Chinese billionaires who control the economies and the governments.
In Indonesia, ethnic Chinese make up less than 4 percent of the population but control around 70 percent of the major businesses. Twelve of the 15 wealthiest families are Chinese. Chinese oligarchs are influential in countries such as Thailand, the Philippines and Malaysia.
Some people worry about a Moslem takeover of the world.
"As long as Westerners are spurred to defend their country only by terrorist murder, they will remain vulnerable to cultural subversion. The Moslems would simply have to learn to avoid outright jihadist threats and violence, which would put the Dutch back to sleep again until the Moslems' numbers had grown to the point where the Dutch wouldn't be able to resist a Moslem takeover of the Netherlands even if they wanted to." - Lawrence Auster http://www.amnation.com/vfr/archives/002779.html
Some Jews worry about Christians having too much power in the world.
"I believe that the active Jews of today have a tendency to think that the Christians have organized and set up and run the world of injustice, unfairness, cruelty, misery.
"I am not taking any part in this, but I have heard it expressed, and I believe they feel it that way. Jews have lived for the past 2000 years and developed in a Christian World. They are apart of that Christian World even when they suffer from it or be in opposition with it, and they cannot dissociate themselves from this Christian World and from what it has done.
"And I thinkthat the Jews are bumptious enough to think that perhaps some form of Jewish solution to the problems of the world could befound which would be better, which would be an improvement. It is up to them to find a Jewish answer to the problems of theworld, the problems of today." -Baron Guy de Rothschild, NBC TV, August 18, 1974. http://www.iahushua.com/JQ/436quote2.html
"The Jewish people as a whole will be its ownMessiah. It will attain world dominion by the dissolution of other races, by the abolition of frontiers, the annihilation of monarchy, and by the establishment of a world republic in whichthe Jews will everywhere exercise the privilege of citizenship.In this new world order the Children of Israel will furnish all the leaders without encountering opposition. The Governments ofthe different peoples forming the world republic will fallwithout difficulty into the hands of the Jews. It will then bepossible for the Jewish rulers to abolish private property, andeverywhere to make use of the resources of the state. Thus willthe promise of the Talmud be fulfilled, in which is said thatwhen the Messianic time is come the Jews will have all theproperty of the whole world in their hands."

Some people in Britain worry about an alleged 'Jewish state within a state '.
According to radioislam.org "TONY BLAIR ... is hugely Jewish financed.
"£500,000 has just been given to him by leading Jewish business men including Sir Trevor Chinn, Britain's biggest motor dealer (Lex Service); Alex Bernstein, former Granada TV chairman; Bob Gavron, publishing millionaire who himself recently gave £500,000 to the party; Sir Emmanuel Kaye, chairman of Lansing Bagnall; and Michael Levy, head of N & G Records. Michael Levy's Blind Trust thus helped Tony Blair raise £22 million for his election campaign.
"Other major benefactors to the Labour Party ... are the Jews Maurice Hatter, David Sainsbury and Robert Earl, each of whom contributed at least one million pounds...
"Examples of Jewish Home Secretaries are Jack Straw, Michael Howard (real name Michael Hecht) and Leon Brittan (real name Leon Brittanisky)...
"Almost all of these influential Jews are Zionists: they believe in a sovereign Israeli state which will ultimately be the centre of a world government. It is a combination of Israeli nationalism and their conviction that they are "God's Chosen People".....
"The Race Relations Act of 1965 was introduced to parliament by the Russian Jew Frank Soskice, purported Labour Attorney General...
"Throughout the 1970s and 1980s Neville Nagler, a synagogue official, was the head of the Home Office Department responsible for race relations matters...
"The so-called Public Order Act of 1986 was placed before parliament by the... Conservative Home Secretary, a Jewish immigrant from Lithuania, Leon Brittanisky, also known as Leon Brittan, assisted by his cousin, another Lithuanian Jew, Malcolm Rivkind, also know as Malcolm Rifkind...
" Eldred Tabachnik, president of the Jewish Board of Deputies... is a close friend of Tony Blair, leader of the Labour Party...

It would be good if , within each country, the media and other important institutions were not dominated by one particular tribe.
It would be good if all of society adopted a belief system which encouraged compassion, moderation and humility.
In Zimbabwe, the Ndebele tribe fear that the Shona tribe, together with its its allies, will obtain total control of the country.
There was a time when it was feared that the Japanese would take over a large part of the world.
To some people in South East Asia, it may seem that it is Chinese billionaires who control the economies and the governments.
In Indonesia, ethnic Chinese make up less than 4 percent of the population but control around 70 percent of the major businesses. Twelve of the 15 wealthiest families are Chinese. Chinese oligarchs are influential in countries such as Thailand, the Philippines and Malaysia.
Some people worry about a Moslem takeover of the world.
"As long as Westerners are spurred to defend their country only by terrorist murder, they will remain vulnerable to cultural subversion. The Moslems would simply have to learn to avoid outright jihadist threats and violence, which would put the Dutch back to sleep again until the Moslems' numbers had grown to the point where the Dutch wouldn't be able to resist a Moslem takeover of the Netherlands even if they wanted to." - Lawrence Auster http://www.amnation.com/vfr/archives/002779.html
Some Jews worry about Christians having too much power in the world.
"I believe that the active Jews of today have a tendency to think that the Christians have organized and set up and run the world of injustice, unfairness, cruelty, misery.
"I am not taking any part in this, but I have heard it expressed, and I believe they feel it that way. Jews have lived for the past 2000 years and developed in a Christian World. They are apart of that Christian World even when they suffer from it or be in opposition with it, and they cannot dissociate themselves from this Christian World and from what it has done.
"And I thinkthat the Jews are bumptious enough to think that perhaps some form of Jewish solution to the problems of the world could befound which would be better, which would be an improvement. It is up to them to find a Jewish answer to the problems of theworld, the problems of today." -Baron Guy de Rothschild, NBC TV, August 18, 1974. http://www.iahushua.com/JQ/436quote2.html
"The Jewish people as a whole will be its ownMessiah. It will attain world dominion by the dissolution of other races, by the abolition of frontiers, the annihilation of monarchy, and by the establishment of a world republic in whichthe Jews will everywhere exercise the privilege of citizenship.In this new world order the Children of Israel will furnish all the leaders without encountering opposition. The Governments ofthe different peoples forming the world republic will fallwithout difficulty into the hands of the Jews. It will then bepossible for the Jewish rulers to abolish private property, andeverywhere to make use of the resources of the state. Thus willthe promise of the Talmud be fulfilled, in which is said thatwhen the Messianic time is come the Jews will have all theproperty of the whole world in their hands." (Baruch Levy,Letter to Karl Marx, La Revue de Paris, p. 54, June 1, 1928)http://www.radioislam.org/islam/english/jewishp/britain/britjewpolitics.htm

Some people in Britain worry about an alleged 'Jewish state within a state '.
According to radioislam.org "TONY BLAIR ... is hugely Jewish financed.
"£500,000 has just been given to him by leading Jewish business men including Sir Trevor Chinn, Britain's biggest motor dealer (Lex Service); Alex Bernstein, former Granada TV chairman; Bob Gavron, publishing millionaire who himself recently gave £500,000 to the party; Sir Emmanuel Kaye, chairman of Lansing Bagnall; and Michael Levy, head of N & G Records. Michael Levy's Blind Trust thus helped Tony Blair raise £22 million for his election campaign.
"Other major benefactors to the Labour Party ... are the Jews Maurice Hatter, David Sainsbury and Robert Earl, each of whom contributed at least one million pounds...
"Examples of Jewish Home Secretaries are Jack Straw, Michael Howard (real name Michael Hecht) and Leon Brittan (real name Leon Brittanisky)...
"Almost all of these influential Jews are Zionists: they believe in a sovereign Israeli state which will ultimately be the centre of a world government. It is a combination of Israeli nationalism and their conviction that they are "God's Chosen People".....
"The Race Relations Act of 1965 was introduced to parliament by the Russian Jew Frank Soskice, purported Labour Attorney General...
"Throughout the 1970s and 1980s Neville Nagler, a synagogue official, was the head of the Home Office Department responsible for race relations matters...
"The so-called Public Order Act of 1986 was placed before parliament by the... Conservative Home Secretary, a Jewish immigrant from Lithuania, Leon Brittanisky, also known as Leon Brittan, assisted by his cousin, another Lithuanian Jew, Malcolm Rivkind, also know as Malcolm Rifkind...
" Eldred Tabachnik, president of the Jewish Board of Deputies... is a close friend of Tony Blair, leader of the Labour Party...
"Jack Straw of Jewish ancestry succeeded Tory Home Secretary, Michael Howard, (identified by the Independent on Sunday, 14 April, 1996, as born Michael Hecht, son of a Jewish refugee from Romania); Tabachnik has already succeeded in getting the Labour Party to agree to end freedom of speech on the subject of the depicted Jewish holocaust by subjecting denial of it to a two-year jail sentence..."
