Ever since the extremist attacks on various American targets on September 11, 2001, an enormous body of literature, mostly theory and supposition, has erupted throughout the world. The real story about this tragedy is far more interesting, and provable, than the great forests of fiction that have grown up around it. There are two parts to this story. There is no point going over the known facts again because there are very few Americans who do not know them. The most reasonable accounting, stripped of fictional additions, is that a group of Arabs planned and executed it entirely on their own and that, for some unknown and very implausible reasons, the American authorities allege they were taken completely by surprise. None of this is true, by the way. The Arabs had highly proficient non-Arab assistance and the American authorities were fully appraised of the progress, timing and full details of the pending attack by those instrumental in directing the suicide pilots.

This documented version is far more simple than the fictions

It is that the Israeli Mossad (foreign intelligence,) had fully penetrated the Atta group in Florida while they were plotting 9/11. The Mossad not only penetrated the Atta group, long in advance of the attack, but gave it a great deal of technical advise and also supplied them with current intelligence information on possible U.S. surveillance and defensive measures. And further, after much soul –searching in Tel Aviv, Arial Sharon decided to notify the American government via the Israeli Ambassador in Washington, and also to copy the information to the American Central Intelligence Agency with whom they had, and still have, a very close working relationship .Not only was the American President, and especially the Vice President, fully aware of the pending attack, but a number of Israelis also knew about this in great detail and used the information to enrich themselves, to the amount of sixteen millions dollars, on the international stock market

First, I include a portion of a recent telephone intercept on the subject, followed by a point by point dissection of the issue as outlined above..


Transcription of telephone conversation on August 4, 2006

From
Israeli Embassy, Washington D.C. Telephone Number (202) 364-5581

To
unidentified individual at CIA, Washington D.C., Telephone Number (703) 482-1102

Commenced 0913 hrs, concluded 0931 hrs.

Speaker A Amir Maimon - - Minister-Counselor and Head of Political Department , Embassy of Israel, Washington, D.C.

Speaker B Unidentified individual located at CIA headquarters, Langley, VA

A: We need to discuss the last major episode…in 2001. There is not so much for us to lose if any of your people get this out…

B: Everything went into the burn bags.

A: We should hope so but there are always those who like to make copies…

B: Not in this case. Believe me, they cleaned everything out.

A: It wouldn’t look that bad for us because we did keep you courant, didn’t we? You know you had everything in advance of the date.

B: Yes, we did but it’s all gone now. That was part of the deal, after all. Everything went.

A: But we still have copies, you know. I have reviewed these and believe me, it doesn’t make us look bad. We kept you right up to the mark on what we were doing. And you certainly knew almost to the minute when, where and how it was happening. Our hands are clean but yours….

B: We passed everything along, everything. Who knows, someone on your side might have leaked something and then the media bastards would be all over us, not to mention the White House.

A: We’re interested to know why someone with you hasn’t gone to the press…

B: It was highly compartmented and on a need to know. And anyone with this knowledge would be terminated with the usual extreme prejudice if they even hinted at it. The recent business with the Brits is pure circus but the White House loves it…

A: It’s so blatantly stupid that it will fall apart of its own weight. The Atta attacks are believable because they carried them out. There was the proof, right on television but the story about the bombs? Who will believe that one? And we had no knowledge of this and if there had been a real ongoing probe, for sure we would have heard all about it. And you? Did you hear anything?

B: After the fact and we agree: no one really believes this. It will go away…

A: That’s usual. But on the earlier business, remember we kept you right up to the mark. And don’t believe that the Bush people wouldn’t throw all of you into the sea over this if it ever came out. You would say you warned them and they would deny it. And where is the proof? You burned it. And where are you then? They will toss a sop to public opinion and sack the lot of you.

B: The DCI kept his word and his silence and they have no reason to push this any further. God knows what it might turn up. There could have been other warnings…

A: There were. From the Germans, the French, Putin, Egypt, Morocco and God knows who else. They are bloody lucky it didn’t blow up in their face. But I can repeat that we are not on the stove this time. You know, anti-Israeli feelings are running high now and the public will be ready to believe anything bad. I don’t want to have to explain that of course we knew what they were up to. After all, we have the right to defend our citizens against terrorism, but you all knew what we were doing and we kept telling you what was coming. You know that, don’t deny it.

B: I’m certainly not and I assure you, there will be no trouble from there. The White House will not be able to deny we told them and we will not be able to deny you told us….

A: In plenty of time to stop it. We could never understand why they did nothing but on the other hand, it suited them to have excuses, didn’t it?

B: Excuses? For what?

A: Reasons, it should have been reasons. Now, they had an excuse for their stupid wars.

B: You did benefit from removing Iraq from the game, didn’t you?

A: Of course, but this thing was never thought out and look at where things are now. It’s going to be a disaster for all of us. Of course if we win in Lebanon and gain the buffer zone and frighten Syria into minding its business, all and good but if not, this is a huge cancer that can grow.


……..

In January of 2000, a meeting of high-level al Qaeda personnel took place in Kuala Lumpur. According to the official CIA report, this is where the attacks on the USS Cole and World Trade Center were put forward.. The Kuala Lumpur meeting was monitored by Malaysian intelligence at the request of the CIA. The CIA was able to determine the identities of the participants, if not the entire agenda. Among those attending: were Ramzi Binalshibh, a student in Germany who then returned there and supposedly organized the Hamburg cell led by Atta, Khalid Almihdhar and Nawaf Alhazmi. They subsequently entered the United States and moved around the country freely for 18 months, before they successfully hijacked the American Airlines commercial aircraft that was flown into the Pentagon on September 11, 2001,

Alhmihdhar's story is especially incredible because he left and reentered the United States at least twice more, once traveling to Germany to meet Binalshibh, and once going to Yemen, where the CIA believes he helped prepare the bombing of the USS Cole. Although he was identified as a suspect in the Cole bombing soon after that attack, the CIA never told the FBI or the INS anything about either him or Alhazmi until late August, 2001 -- after he had reentered the United States yet again. This proved to be far too late to apprehend Alhazmi.

Further the CIA also did not inform the German authorities about its suspicions regarding Binalshibh., where they could have connected him to the other members of the "Hamburg cell" that included the WTC suicide pilots, Mohamed Atta and Marwan al-Shehhi.

The CIA did monitor Binalshibh long enough to connect him to Atta, because CIA had Mohamed Atta under surveillance in Hamburg starting in January 2000. This surveillance continued until Atta applied for and received a U.S. entry visa from the U.S. embassy in Berlin (on May 18, 2000) and flew to the United States out of Prague in June.

In October of 2000, two Mossad cells of six Egyptian and Yemeni- born Jews, started training at a secret base in Israel's Negev Desert with the purpose of penetrating Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda network, both in Europe (where they were known to be functioning in Hamburg, Germany) and the United States where a known bin Laden cell had been identified as being organized. It is generally known that the Mossad has penetrated every Arab and Muslim organization and would have had little problem in finding any number of fanatics to carry out a suicide mission in the belief they were serving Allah. Indeed, recent news reports contended that not all of the hijackers knew their mission would end in death.

One team flew to Amsterdam and were under the control of Mossad's Europe Station. This is based at Schipol Airport within the El Al complex. They later made contact in Hamburg with Mohammed Atta, the lead hijacker on September 11.

The second group flew directly to New York. From there they traveled south to Florida and infiltrated the Bin Laden organization. In the town of Hollywood, Florida, they identified the two former Hamburg students and later terror pilots, Mohammed Atta and Marwan al-Shehhi. The Mossad team lived in the vicinity of the apartment of the two seemingly normal flight school students, observing them around the clock.

On August 17th, 2001, the Mossad team in Europe flew with some of the Hamburg terrorists into Boston, a month before the attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.. Mossad agents had learned from the CIA that the leader of this group, Hanan Serfati, had rented several dwellings. "One of Serfati's apartments was located on the corner of 701st St. and 21st Ave. [sic] in Hollywood, right near the apartment of Atta and al-Shehi.", The chief Israeli agent was residing near the Hollywood post office where the terrorists had a mailbox. The Mossad also had its sights on Atta’s accomplice Khalid al-Midhar, with whom the CIA was also familiar, but allowed to run free. The Mossad team kept Atta under continuous surveillance while he was attending flight school in Florida in 2000 and early 2001. The initial penetration was followed by these agents, acting on specific orders from the Mossad, assisting the Atta people in developing their plans to attack “important American government and financial centers.” The Mossad agents were fully conversant with the plans of this group but, although asked to participate, declined to do so, claiming they were engaged in other, “more important” activities. The Mossad warned their American counterparts several times about the terrorists, especially about al-Midhar.

The Mossad team had established an attack on the U.S. was "imminent". It reported this to its Tel Aviv controller through the Israeli Embassy in Washington using a system of (at that time) secure communications. The Mossad groups secret communications with the Israeli Embassy in Washington and Mossad units in Holland had been breached by DoD experts working with the NSA. The Central Intelligence Agency also was involved in this interdiction One way for the CIA to request assistance from the Mossad to keep an eye on, or attempt to penetrate the Atta group without itself violating the ban on activities inside the United States. An allied spy agency could violate American law on the CIA's behalf, and watch the suspect without needing to involve the FBI or any other domestic American agency, because the CIA was extremely jealous of its perceived rivals and kept a great deal of otherwise very important information strictly private.

On August 24, 2001, the head of the Israeli Mossad reported the imminence of an Arab attack against American targets to the Israeli Embassy and the Mossad connections inside the CIA, and a similar report was made by the same agency on September 7, 2001 and provided the United States with a list of 19 potential terrorists, whom the Mossad believed were planning an imminent attack within the United States. At least four of the names on this list later turned up again as four of the 19 alleged Sept. 11 hijackers. On August. 23, 2001, the Israeli intelligence service Mossad presented to its American counterpart a list of names of 19 identified Muslim terrorists who were then living in the United States and were planning to carry out an attack by hijacked commercial aircraft against specific, listed targets in Washington, D.C. “in less than a month…probably the second week in September…” According to a highly-classified CIA report on this issue, Mossad agents in the United States, working with the knowledge of the FBI and the CIA, had followed four of the 19 hijackers, including Almihdhar., and in Hollywood, Florida, had penetrated the group using agents fluent in Arabic and born in Arab countries.

According to the CIA (and subsequent FBI internal, and highly classified, reports,) Arab terrorists and suspected terror cells lived in Phoenix, Arizona, as well as in Miami and Hollywood, Florida from December 2000 to April 2001 “in direct proximity to the Israeli spy cells which had penetrated said alleged terrorist groups with their own, Arab-speaking agents.

August 17, 2006

It seems that huge numbers of viewers, both domestic and foreign, have looked at the posting I made on intercepted official Israeli conversations and I can imagine the hysteria in Tel Aviv…and Washington over this.

And, I am so happy to tell you, there is more to come!

On Monday the 22nd, I will be devoting a good deal of space to the 9/11 tragedy. We know from intercepts, which foreign government helped organize and execute this and who in our government at that time was aware of it. I can assure my readers that this is not the usual lunatic fringe fictions about plasmoid clouds or Russian missiles.

The truth is always less exciting than some blogger’s wet dream.

A bit of current history here. Bush, ever obedient to the wishes of Israel, agreed to block any attempt to establish a cease fire in Lebanon until the mighty IDF crushed the Hezbollah and was able to occupy, on a permanent basis they decided, enough southern Lebanese territory to keep Hezbollah from lobbing rockets into Israel.

Bush was initially gloating around here that the all- powerful IDF would crush the” weak rag heads” in a “few days.” As it turned out, Hezbollah defeated the Israeli military on the ground in savage fighting and then a terrified Israel rushed to Bush, via their Ambassador here, to beg him, whining like hell, to force through an immediate cease fire before “everything here falls apart.” Bush and Congoleeza Rice, once Stanford’s notorious Date Rape Queen and latterly our beloved and useless Secretary of State, rushed in panic to the once denigrated UN and pushed through a frantic cease fire.

But given his nutty personality, Bush is now trumpeting around his “confidential inner circle conferences,” that Hezbollah was ‘soundly defeated’ by the IDF!

Those here, or informed others in D.C. know that both Bush and Israel have taken a terrible, terrible propaganda defeat over this. They were both once terrifying manifestations of raw force, keeping the world frightened of their anger, and retribution, but now Bush is seen as a paper tiger in a rainstorm.

The Israeli defeat will, without a doubt, prove to be a disaster in our occupation of an Iraq where American military units are being mortared in their green zone on a daily basis (not reported domestically, of course) and a terrible civil war is now in full swing.

Emboldened by the Hezbollah victory, the resistance people in Iraq are redoubling their murderous attacks on American soldiers and this is a trend that shows no sign of abating.

He threatened North Korea with “immediate military retaliation” if she launched any missiles. They launched sixteen and nothing happened.

He has continued to threaten Iran if she does not stop her atomic development program. Iran has not only laughed in his face but openly supported the Hezbollah with weapons and money.

We here all know that Bush has shown that America can do nothing but threaten and pretty soon, the rest of the world will treat all of us like a Punch and Judy show. Remember this in November, why not?

August 13, 2006

I am pleased to learn that the transcribed conversation I forwarded last week has had such an enormous viewing! There is a very, very important one that deals with the true background of the 9/11 tragedy that will have an even greater audience. That comes in a week or so but this time, I am sending on a list of members of Congress who received money from AIPAC in the last Congressional election. Of course more and more money has been flowing from AIPAC into Congressional pockets in the mean time but I don’t have the current figures yet. When I get them and put them into order, I will send them on.

August 10, 2006

Here, as promised, is an interesting conversation that somehow accidentally got intercepted and transcribed. There are lots more where this came from!”

Transcription of telephone conversation on August 3, 2006

Israeli Embassy, Washington D.C. Telephone Number (202) 364-5582.

Speaker A Reuven Azar - Counselor for Political Affairs, Embassy of Israel

Speaker B Unidentified individual located at AIPAC headquarters

A. Well, things are going as well as expected, better perhaps than expected. There is military progress there (Lebanon) and we have wonderful cooperation here.

B. For sure, but don’t forget the dangers in having too much cooperation. All right for this moment but in the long run, this can certainly backfire on us. You know, we are seen as being too much influential with the Bush people.

A. I wouldn’t worry too much about that. The media is certainly not to worry about and most Americans really do not care about things there (Lebanon) The main point is that by the time the U.S. makes itself felt at the UN, we will have accomplished our goals and established the buffer we need.

B. Absolutely but…there is still the future to think about.

A. Who cares? Once we establish the buffer, the rest is just shit. It will all be hidden soon in the coming press reports of Arab ‘attacks’ on the U.S. This is for the voting in November. You know, ‘many Arab groups will for sure attack American targets.’ They (the U.S. Government) will choose so-called target areas where they need the most support. We don’t need to worry about Miami, Skokie or Beverly Hills after all. (Laughter) and this is a little crude but the public here is terribly stupid and the warning color days worked before, didn’t they?

B. Yes, but there are second thoughts on all of that. If you go to the well too often, there are problems. People lose interest.

A. The British are being such swine about this, aren’t they? They are causing trouble about the bombs these days.

B. Just a few troublemakers. The press here does not cover that and who reads the foreign media? Most Americans can’t read anyway. But there is danger that the U.N. might be motivated to move a peace keeping force into Lebanon and this might negate our purposes. Hesbollah must be utterly wiped out and Syria must be made to realize…with force if necessary…that it cannot supply the terrorists with more Iranian rockets. Maybe an accidental airstrike on Syrian military units could say to them to mind their own business. We have done this before.

A. It is too bad that we cannot teach Tehran a lesson. The ultimate goal would be to have America attack Iran but I am afraid the American military is dead set against this…

B. They are all Jew-haters up there.

A. For sure but we know that Americans can bomb the shit out of Tehran and hopefully kill off a number of the militants, probably disrupt their atomic program and teach all of the area that the U.S. means business. We support them, they support us. But they cannot send in ground troops and if we did that, our losses would not be borne at home. As it is, there are the usual malcontents bleating about the Lebanon business.

B. They are just afraid they will get a rocket on their house and there are the same ones here. The Lieberman business is not that good, after all. Yes, of course he is a liberal Democrat but his support of us is too obvious. He could be a little critical too. We see the Bush people doing this, just to keep the people quiet. Yes, they say, see, we too are actually critical of Israel….

A. But not too critical, right?

B. No, never that. Too many pictures of dead jerks for example. We need to see more pictures of grieving Israelis, mourning lost sons and children. Can’t we get more of those? Fuck the Arabs.

A. I feel sorry for the American mediA. Their instincts are to defend dead Arab children…

B. But nits make lice, don’t they? Who mourns dead Israeli children?

A. I’m sure there would be more on this but not enough children are dead.

B. Not yet, anyway. But if they rocket Tel Aviv…

A. Well, then, for sure.

B. We should have pictures all ready if that happens. Do you think it will?

A. Tehran directs that part of the business. We don’t have as much inside gen on them there…

B. The fucking Russians are on their side.

A. We have always had trouble with those Slavic pricks. First weapons…

B. The Chinese assholes also do this, don’t forget.

A. No one around here will forget that, be assured. The time will come when we get them too. Say we cut off their oil from the Gulf? What then? They will dance to our tunes then, not Tehran’s.

B. If we had oil…

A. But we do not. The filthy Putin has the oil. They should get rid of him while they are at it. Our people almost had it but he forced them out.

B. They can always come back. The people here would really support this. We put our people back in after we get rid of Putin and then a guaranteed flow of oil to America.

A. And Russia is off the chessboard too.

B. They all want that badly here, too. Cheney is the strongest supporter of cutting the nuts off of RussiA. The military here are against fishing in troubled waters.

A. They can’t be replaced, Bush can’t sack them all.

B. Set an example. Sack a few more of the assholes and the rest will shut up. They always do. So, send me your latest list and I’ll see what I can do here.

A .Send someone to pick it up. The mail here is awful. It will take a week if some black doesn’t steal it, throw it away or wipe his ass with it.

B. Tomorrow for sure.

A. OK. And one other matter. We feel very strongly that if the current people get kicked out in November, as it looks like they might, we owe them to help them stay right where they are. It has taken a long time and much money to get all the ducks lined up and we don’t want to have to start in again. We can generally rely on sympathy from the Democrats but they will not support any more military ventures over there. That’s for sure.

B. Then what do you suggest?

A. The terrorism card works wonders. We were going to release a statement that Arabs were going to attack an El Al plane on takeoff, with rockets….

A. Probably leftovers from the CIA businesses in Afghanistan.

A. Let’s not get into that now. But this scare would only affect flights to Israel and we don’t think it would have any impact on the election.

B. Well then, why not have these attacks aimed at American aircraft? Where would they attack from?

A. Say at the perimeter fence lines at airports. Or better still, why not a plan cooked up to smuggle explosives on board transatlantic flights to or from America? Something clever that will catch the public imagination….

B. That stupid bomb in the shoe routine?

A. Don’t knock it. It worked, didn’t it? We can always find some suckers with a bent to this we can fill up with real enthusiasm and then turn them in, complete with plans. They actually believe they are going to paradise and fuck virgins and we have another propaganda coup. Let’s give this some effort. You know, a terrified public will not want to change horses in mid stream. So far, the Rove people have a good line: If you’re against the Republicans, you’re encouraging the evil terrorists sthick.

B. Well, they did that with the alert warnings and it worked…more or less.

A. Face it, they aren’t too bright here. They ran it into the ground, had to fire Ridge and Ashcroft, one of our very best friends ever, and put those things on ice. They need to discover a huge plot but in America

A. You know, as you said, infiltrate a group of crazies, plant things on them, call the FBI…

B. Oh, they do that themselves. That business in Florida was pathetic…

A. But it worked, didn’t it?

B. For about ten minutes at six o’clock for about three days.

A. Well, think about it and get back to me.

B. Right.

A. What’s the situation with your two people? Are they going to be tried or not?

B. Probably not, as far as the Bush people are concerned. But it is up to the courts and we are very careful not to fuck with them. They are expected to have the charges thrown out soon…

A. Well, I’ll pray for them. I have to go now so I’ll get back to you later. Don’t forget to send someone for the list

B. OK.

(Conversation terminated)

This is just the tip of a very large iceberg. Other inside information will be published in upcoming editions. On Monday, August 14, I will put up a complete listing of all members of Congress who have received money from AIPAC, state by state, amount by amount.

Dear old crazy, and defeated, Lieberman, shrieking with rage at seeing all his extra income flowing down the drain, has received over $227,758 so far from AIPAC. Tell me, children, what did he do for all that money? There are many more names and amounts to entertain you as well as to give you a concrete guide as to your voting in November next.

As far as the recent stories about “terrorist attacks” coming from England, don’t believe them. It is well known around the White House that this invented story is designed to offset the crushing defeat of the Administration’s darling liberal, Lieberman. This theme, by the way, according to position papers circulating here, is the main theme of the November elections. The thesis? Why the Iron Trio of Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld have protected, and will continue to protect, innocent America from evil terrorist threats.

Of course, if you vote Democratic, all bets are off and armies of rabid Muslim (read non Christian) fascists will at once invade America, to rape, loot and pillage while setting off bombs in the Des Moines Public Library. Please note that in spite of all the shit the Bush people have spread around about “proctecting America” there has not been one proven incident of any real terrorist group caught or no attack thwarted. The WMD lies were the father and the “terrorist threats” and the illegitimate child of this corrupt and dangerous gang.

August 6, 2006

The American public is being told one thing by the Administration and the DoD. and various staff members here are being told something quite different.

This, of course, deals with the current terrible events in Lebanon. While the public is told that Israel is going after terrorists, the death tolls are way underreported.

When Israeli bombing attacks kill two hundred Lebanese, Tel Aviv wants us to publish that ten died. When forty IDF soldiers are slaughtered by Hezbollah people, the death toll to be published is eight. A rain of rockets on Haifa, according to Israel sources, produced “moderate damage” and only six causalities whereas in fact, two square blocks of that port city were blasted into rubble and over sixty civilians were blown to bits or crushed to death inside collapsing apartment houses.

The Israeli Embassy is in constant contact with certain staff members here and what they want, and are getting, is full support by Bush of their continuing punishing attacks on civilians (to teach them a lesson for daring to be Muslims…however, many are also Christian. There’s one for weird Pat Robertson to suck on…) and to give them time to occupy the entire lower portion of Lebanon without interference from the hated UN. Bush agrees with this completely and our deliberately slow-motion diplomatic actions have a two-fold goal. The first goal is Israeli and allows them to occupy half of Lebanon and the second is the Bush/Neocon plan to get Israel to mix it up with Syria and engage in a proxy war for the U.S.

The Republican leadership knows that for us to get into a ground war with Syria, and probably then Iran, would be political suicide before the Midterm elections in November but if Israel does it, we can safely supply with bunker buster bombs, napalm rockets, a modified form of nerve gas and other American weapons of mass destruction.

The American media is under strict orders to depict all the Muslims as terrorists and the Israelis (who are even worse terrorists) as fighting for their freedom.

The loony Bush people have so enraged the Pentagon that a military putsch would not astonish me. Bush berates his senior military leaders to their faces and certainly to their backs but they, in turn, consider him and his Israeli friends to be destructive and dangerous to world peace in general and the fabric of the Army in specific.

The Army people know that if this horror is allowed to go on unchecked, it is more than likely that the entire Middle East will erupt in violence that can only wreak terrible havoc on our troops in Iraq.

Bush does not care about this because his brain is in neutral but Cheney and the Neocons are rubbing their hands together with undisguised glee while the growingly senile Rumsfeld drools contentedly onto his vest.

August 4, 2006

A shipment of Zelzal missiles arrived in northern Lebanon yesterday via Turkey, who has no love for the U.S. because of their support of the Kurds. Of course the Russians have been hard at work in that area and have had some notable success in Ankara. I do not know when the projected saturation attacks on Tel Aviv are up because the satellite pictures show new Israeli troop concentration areas that might also be targets of importance. Apparently, disinformation has worked very well so far in the anti-Israel campaign and those here passing what they mistakenly think is vital satellite and SIGINT information to Israel have no idea they have been led down the path.

While Bush has been eagerly supplying bunker-buster and cluster bombs to Israel, albeit with many problems caused when the Brits refuse to allow his cargo planes with their deadly cargoes to land on their soil, Hezbollah has been wreaking havoc on the vaunted IDF people and are continuing to bombard Israel with rockets, of which they have a huge supply, the Zelzal missile came from Iran and can easily reach Tel Aviv from Lebanon and the SIGINT indicates that a massive attack has been in train for some time now. Sometimes, it is said, the biter gets bitten.

July 29, 2006

The current bloodshed in poor Lebanon is causing all manner of stress here in the White House. A number of staffers, not the neocons or Israel supporters, demand that Bush allow the IDF to wipe out as many enemies, or perceived enemies (be they five years old children or members of Hezbollah) as they can before they run out of ammunition and Bush-supplied cluster bombs.

Others, less sanguine, opt for diplomacy and a cease fire but Bush and Cheney will have none of this. Poor Rice is stuck in the middle because she has to do what her lords and masters command and the command is to give all support to Israel, regardless of the consequences. Intercepted communications between Tel Aviv and Washington, now circulating, show very clearly that Israel believes it has Bush’s total support and is behaving accordingly.

That Bush has done nothing but have the odious Bolton block any UN cease fire attempts, is very clear here and this is making the less ferocious very queasy. It really does not matter to Bush what his staff thinks because he really doesn’t care. The President behaves like a very spoiled and very stubborn child who is going to do what he wants regardless of any objections from anyone.

If he signs a bill, he announces he will not enforce it and when the Supreme Court handed him a serious defeat in their Gitmo ruling, he simply tried to do an end run around the court.

You can tell Bush nothing and no one in the White House or at top levels in Washington dares to contradict him, no matter how legitimate the contradictions might be. Anyone, from Generals, Attorney Generals, State Department people or CIA analysists who dare to question Bush or, worse, dare to produce information contrary to what he thinks can bend over and kiss their ass goodbye. They will either be sacked, like Ashjcroft, or sent off to South Africa to inspect seal turds on the beach.

All Bush wants to hear, aside from approving laughter at his juvenile fratrat humor is the word ‘yes.’

July 27, 2006

I have been involved with American political matters for many years now and have watched the ebb and flow of concepts, ideologies, policies and personnel with some interest. Having said that, I also have to say that the current Administration of George W. Bush is, without any question, the most incompetent, dishonest and divisive I have ever encountered in person. On the domestic scene, Bush has personally allied himself with the lunatic Christian Right to the point where he has alienated a good part of the American religious scene.

He has wilfully interfered with the funding of stem cell research that all sane medical people have said is vitally important in finding cures for such widespread diseases as diabetes, Parkinson’s disease and many, many other major killers of people. Bush has also pursued an agenda that is transparently anti poor in general and anti black in specific. His bored reactions and lack of action in the Katrina New Orleans hurricane disaster is typical of the man. He did not care about the very obvious suffering of the poor, certainly because the poor are just that, poor.

The New Orleans poor are generally Democrats, black, on welfare or some kind of subsidy, can do nothing for the Republican party and, in the eyes of this party, are parasitic and unproductive. Bush’s idiotic tax breaks for his rich friends have clearly sown the seeds of a future major economic disaster, one that he will not be around to deal with. Bush has personally negated years of environmental advances because many of the restrictions mandated by these advances cost his business friends, and political contributors money.

Bush and his associates hold the laws of the land in contempt, feeling, without any legal basis, that they can rule the United States as they wish.

But it is the international arena that the bumbling, incompetent Bush policies have created immensely critical problems that will cost Americans a great deal of money on a personal level and put the United States in opposition to the rest of the world.

The most important case in point here relates directly to the growing violence being committed by the state of Israel against Lebanon and the Palestinian state. Humanitarian concerns aside, the economic consequences for Bush’s encouraging this naked aggression coupled with his flat refusal to make any official effort to stop it will certainly result, almost at once, in an immediate surge of the price of crude oil due to growing fears on all sides that this violence could very well lead to a major war and the total disruption of the world’s major oil supplies.

The Bush administration’s course of threatening Iran with military actions coupled with their equally obvious intent to permit Israel to continue its ruthless destruction of Lebanon and deliberate seizure of its territory will certainly result in a sharp surge in oil prices that will certainly prevent them any room for diplomatic actions and, in the end, cause titanic economic upheavals in the United States. At a time when the Republicans are suffering from monumental declines in the polls and with a major midterm Congressional election looming in November, the Bush people blindly push ahead with their senseless and very destructive policies.

The price of oil has surged up to nearly $80 a barrel and most professional non- government experts in the oil field are highly concerned that if the Lebanon attacks do not cease and the area is not brought under strong external control, such as a UN military mission, the unabated and savage actions of the IDF is expected to involve Syria and, even more seriously, Iran. If Iran becomes involved militarily (they are already supplying Hezbollah with very advanced weaponry) this could not only threaten the position of American military units now in Iraq but also interdict the movement of oil from both Iran and Iraq to world markets.

The leaders of Iran have before them the example of Russian President Putin’s brief but devastating shut-off of Russian oil and gas to eastern Europe last winter. This was calculated to make a point, which it did, but the Iranians can easily see that even a temporary cessation of their oil shipments to other oil-hungry nations would have a devastating effect.

This would, in essence, turn these nations against the United States for its clearly perceived role in instigating and maintaining the violence in the Middle East This explains why Russia, China and other countries have continued to resist Bush’s demands that they force Iran to abandon their nuclear program. That this position is basically that of Israel and as it is universally believed everywhere that Israel has a disproportionate amount of influence in Washington, anti-Semitism, always endemic, will erupt in many areas with terrible results to diverse Jewish communities worldwide.

If Bush and his people thought that their threats against Iran would have any effect on that country, they were sadly mistaken and Iran counter threats to cut off their oil has caused many countries whom Bush counted on to support his, and Israelis, to withhold substantive support for Bush’s threats. demands .

This has become clearly evident to the Iranians and the fact that they can defy Bush with growing impunity has not gone unnoticed by other countries who hitherto had been afraid of American actions against them in the event that they proved to be intransigent to any American demands.

The Bush Administration has made similar demands and issued stern threats against North Korea but when that country fired test rockets after Bush personally had threatened immediate military reprisal,s. When nothing happened, both North Korea and Iran have devastatingly called Bush, and Americas, bluff.

Iranian threats to cut off oil shipments have immediately caused an upward surge of oil prices from a high of $28 a barrel in 2002 to $78 a barrel in 2006. This increase in price pours huge amounts of money into the coffers of Iran, a strong military and political force in the Middle East and the accounts of Saudi Arabia whose leaders, once pro-American, have turned away from American because of the reactions of their people to the Israeli destruction of life and property in Lebanon.

It should be noted that in addition to supplying hostile Arab states with huge revenues, the rising prices will have, and are having, a strong, negative effect on the American public. Once a major oil and natural gas producer, America has now become a major oil and natural gas consumer but official Bush policies have so infuriated many oil producing countries that they would prefer to sell to China and India, both with burgeoning needs for oil.

Remember that the soaring price of gas at the pumps was the primary reason why the presidency of Jimmy Carter toppled. Bush might not worry about this as he cannot be reelected but the damage will be visited upon the Republicans who most probably will lose control of at least one of the branches of Congress in November. If they lose both houses, as is not impossible given the increasing disasters, loud and persistent Beltway rumors have it that Bush could very well be impeached and even more certain, massive investigations into rampant Republican corruption would follow as surely as night follows day

That not everyone in America is upset with the surging prices of gasoline, it is noted that

Exxon/Mobil will be announcing the highest second-quarter earnings of any corporation, American or foreign, in history. This will be a $9.9 billion profit raked in over the three month quarter.

The strongly pro-Israeli neocons have repeatedly called for Bush to launch an American air attack on Iran’s reported nuclear facilities, regardless of whether they are peaceful or militant in nature. The plan is to use tactical nuclear weapons and so-called ‘bunker buster’ bombs on any area in Iran believed to be involved, even remotely, in their nuclear power programs. This would include homes of personnel, schools, electrical power grids and any kind of Iranian infrastructure that could even remotely be connected with this program. Although this course is eagerly and often put forward by militant pro-Israel neocons, the economic results would be catastrophic and the price of oil would go so high that it would be sold by the cup, not the gallon.

Money, unfortunately, is power, and the increase of the price of oil has not only enriched various hostile Arab states, it has also done this for the Russian Republic.

Russia, once an economic basket case after the collapse of Communism, now is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, controller and developer of oil, natural gas and nuclear power in the world.

This is an extreme irritant to the Bush administration who have tried, in vain, to secure pipelines for oil and gas that would ship non-Russian resources to the West outside of Russian territory. To this end, the U.S. has attempted to gain control over countries over whose territories such pipelines would have to cross but in spite of early successes with the Ukraine and Georgia, Putin has effectively blocked an uninterrupted passage and has effectively blocked Central Asian countries from dealing with American oil interests and preventing the establishment, or continuation, of American military bases in these strategic areas.

In furtherance of this program, Russia has cooperated with China to use a group called the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. (Øàíõàé Õýöçî Öçó÷æè (Øàíõý Öçó÷æè) This was initially formed on June 5, 2001 by China, Russia , Kazakhstan, Kyrgystan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.

The first joint military exercise between the China and Russia, called Peace Mission 2005 started on August 19, 2005. Following the successful completion of the Sino-Russian military exercises, Russian officials have begun speaking of the SCO taking on a military role and of India also joining these exercises in the future.

Other states, to include Mongolia , Pakistan, India and Iran have observer status and in Serbia, the Serbian Radical Party has called for Serbia to try to join. The Serbian Radical Party is doing this because they tend to view the European Union as being a negative force on Serbia and because they want to seek better relations with Russia. The Serbian Radical Party has also proposed that Serbia join the Union of Russia and Belarus to improve relations with Russia.

The U.S. Department of Defense has expressed growing concerns that this group could quickly develop into a military entitiy in opposition to NATO. The DoD feels strongly that pressure eminating from the United States is materialy assisting Putin’s plans for a counterbalance to NATO and, in addition, has expressed strong concerns that the admission of Russia into the EU would further a European bloc that would spread from France, through Germany to Russia, creating a unified and potentially very powerful entity stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

Both the SCO and a Russian entry into the EU could form an economic and military bloc that could easily rival the U.S. in power and that would be a very strong rival to America’s foreign and economic policies.

Much, if not all, of this organizing is due, in the main, to the Bush inability to produce an effective diplomatic policy as well as his ongoing policy of threat and bluster towards anyone he perceives as opposed to American business (read oil and energy) interests.

The results of this ineptnness and total lack of foresight could easily do terrible damage to the interests of the American public.

I have been discussing the total penetration of Israeli top level coded communications, both diplomatic and intelligence. Now, let us turn our attention closer to home where rampant rumor has it, and has been having it for some time now, that even the most secure of secret government sites are being broken into. We know who is breaking into the Israeli sites but the identities of the domestic site-breakers is not known…but guessed at by many. Fifteen year old boys or crazed anti-Bush left-wingers do not figure in the very short list of suspects. Try an alphabet agency, why not?

For some time, B.A.E. Systems has been running a series of classified, intelligence system for various American agencies, such as the CIA. BAE is a British company based at Farnborough, UK, which has extensive worldwide interests, particularly in North America through its subsidiary BAE Systems Inc. BAE was formed on 30th November 1999 with the merger of British Aerospace (BAe) and Marconi Electronic Systems (MES), the defence arm of The General Electric Company (GEC). The run a so-called “Covert Communications” network that is a highly classified blog that acts as a forum for agencies and individual employees to communicate and share information. Since 2005, over a thousand of such blogs have been instituted.

B.A.E. Systems, which runs the CIA’s blog that is hosted on IntelLINK. This has an information technology contract with the C.I.A. The IntelLINK intelligence network links information in the various classified databases of the US intelligence agencies (e.g. FBI, CIA, DEA, NSA, USSS, NRO) to facilitate communication and the sharing of documents and other resources.

There is also the <>ncr.disa.mil<> system. The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) was established in Washington, D.C., as the Defense Communications Agency (DCA) with 450 employees on May 12, 1960, by Secretary of Defense Thomas B. Gates. Its mission was to manage the Defense Communications System (DCS), a consolidation of the independent long-haul communications functions of the Army, Navy, and Air Force.

In the 1960s, DCA moved to Arlington, Va., and took on several major organizations. The Air Force Office of Commercial Communications Management (now the Defense Information Technology Contracting Organization), White House Signal Agency (now the White House Communications Agency), and the Department of Defense (DoD) Damage Assessment Center (now the Joint Staff Support Center) all became a part of DCA. DCA also established six regional communications control centers and two area centers for operational control of the DCS.

There are many other supposedly “secure and secret” internet systems that most certainly are not. There appear to be three main groups of hackers who have been having a field day rooting around in our Most Sacred and Secret utterances. One group are civilian experts, looking for something with which to entertain their fellow hackers and computer geeks. Most of them have no idea how much potential damage they are doing. The second group are foreign professional hackers working for their governments who certainly do know how much damage they are doing and the third group consists of our very own domestic intelligence agencies who are spying on their rivals to steal their information and find out as much as they can about said rival’s activities to steal a march on them and, in many cases, make them look like fools. The foreign intelligence people dearly love these people because their activities save them so much time and trouble. Soon enough, I will be forwarding to you material gained from the interdicting of Israeli intelligence and governmental intercepts but will keep the domestic gleanings general and not specific.

July 20, 2006

The information I am about to discuss has been discreetly circulating in Certain Circles (certainly not the White House) inside the Beltway for at least a month now and since it is about to be revealed elsewhere, I am going to discuss it.

Hitherto, I have kept very quiet about it because I certainly wouldn’t want to reveal it so that more and more devastating information can emerge into the light of day.

Some months ago, we learned that the top Israeli military, intelligence and diplomatic codes had been very effectively broken by a group of cryptanalysis experts both here and in the Russian Republic.

(How strange that there is now cooperation, if unofficial, between the two former enemies!)

In the United States, all I can say is that the code-breakers are not the NSA or the CIA. The latter are far too pro-Israel because many of their top executives are Jewish and the former has other things to do.

At the same time that Israel’s political, diplomatic and military secrets are circulating around the Beltway, and for a certainty, into at least two of the Embassies on Massachusetts Avenue, other very clandestine programs have pinpointed very strategic areas <>inside<> Israel to include, but are certainly not limited to: Sigint centers, repositories of very sensitive weaponry to include nuclear items and CW/BW stockpiles, major military communications centers, hidden command bunkers and hardened security bunkers in Tel Aviv for high level Israeli officials, fuel stores for the military including gas and oil reserves, high-level military and governmental telephone exchanges and other vital infrastructure targets.

In Washington, the very highest level communications to and from the Israeli Embassy and certain important Israeli official commissions are being read and transcribed on a daily basis and excerpts of these have been, and are being, read by a number of people here and abroad ( and for a certainty also in various Arab Embassies here.)

It is known, here at least, that a number of Russian Jews, now employed in highly sensitive positions in Israel, have been transmitting certain information of a top level nature to Moscow and some, but <>not<>,. all, of this is coming to the United States (but certainly not officially !) The main reason? Family still inside Russia and the fact that the U.S. shares top level data with Israel and by tapping into this, the Russians can much more easily break certain codes and read satellite pictures.

Many messages contain directives to the Ambassador as to what is to be conveyed to a completely sympathetic President and Secretary of State, their very private responses, directives to intelligence operatives controlled from the Embassy, a significant number of references, often double coded, as to Isreal-sympathetic U.S. government officials, both appointed and elected. Not all of these are Jewish, by the way.

Classified information, much at the very highest level, is pouring into the Israeli Embassy, evaluated by them , coded and responses sent back to Tel Aviv…and being read as soon as it is received and sent out!

With the full cooperation and even encouragement of the President, Israel has been preparing a coup d’main against Arab commandos both in Lebanon and Gaza and has been planning, again with the full cooperation of the White House, to use these “terrorist attacks” (deliberately provoked) on them to move militarily into Syria and “completely crush” the government there which they view as working with Iran to infiltrate deadly, long range missiles into Lebanon to attack vital targets deep inside Israel.

There also has been the intention of Israel to involve the United States in a sneak attack on Tehran using tactical nuclear weapons. The President finds himself in a position wherein he completely sympathizes with Israel’s determination to crush any kind of Arab activism in the Middle East because he feels that these same activists are also Iran sponsored and are responsible for the casualties in Iraq.

The idea under discussion, according to the extracts, is for this to happen just before the U.S. midterm elections in November, to give Bush and the Republicans a desperately needed boost in public opinion.

Our military, which is behind these code-breaking schemes, is bitterly opposed to any extension of hostilities in the area because their troops would then be fully engaged with military, rather than irregular, units and we simply do not have enough equipment or personnel on the ground to deal with it.

The military feels that if significant numbers of our troops were to be overrun and killed or wounded by a massive Arab military campaign, the Army and Marines would be effectively neutralized for some time to come and utterly unable to cope with any national or global crisis that would undoubtedly be instigated by any one of our growing list of enemies. These perceive that America is pinned down in a no-win guerrilla war in Iraq and that it would be virtually impossible, for example, to send American troops into Mexico in the event of a left-wing coup there or into Venezuela to remove the obnoxious left-wing and Bush-hating Chavez.

Israeli leaders have been closeted with many of their American counterparts in the hopes of a joint action against both Syria and Iran but logistics are against them. (Mossad people regularly meet in Langley with their CIA counterparts to exchange information) The Israelis are shocked to discover the quantity and quality of the rocketry (and other weapons) being used against them and since Bush, at their foolish request, has agreed to give them a free hand in blasting Lebanon, there is a growing and very serious military belief that the war will suddenly escalate and Israel will not only attack Lebanon with ground troops but will use seized areas in that country to launch a military attack on Syria which they see as a surrogate for Iran. Nuclear war is a specific probability at this juncture.

An attack on Iran, problematical thought it might be, is not to be taken lightly because Israel is determined to “neutralize” (read “exterminate”) both states as major threats to their existence. There seems to be growing frustration on Israel’s leaders part about the possible inability of the U.S. to intervene on their side in such a blitzkrieg.

Iran is far better armed that most observers realize and the deliberate refusal of Bush to use his office to force a cease fire will, in all probability, lead to an unforeseen escalation of combat in Lebanon that will result in terrible damage and high death tolls but he has repeatedly demonstrated that such matters are of absolutely no consequence to him or his top advisors.

A compendium of information gleaned from this overview is being prepared for future publication.

July 17, 2006

Bush in St. Petersburg is pathetic. In spite of almost universal condemnation of Israel for her obviously deliberate savage attacks on her neighbors, Bush bleats about “poor Israel’s self-protection” and demands “complete support of Israel” in this nasty and very dangerous business. None of the other attendees at the conference support these views but Bush does as he is told and will continue to do so until they take him away.

We have allowed, and freely permitted, a vicious and ethnocentric state to drag our country into one bottomless military pit and now they are trying to widen the scope of the disaster by dragging us into another and this will, in the opinions of all, not some but all, experts I have spoken with or who have made reports on the current situation. Bush and Cheney will not listen to them because Israel demands obedience from those it supports. Should Bush chastise Israel or threaten to cut off aid as Reagan did, his Republicans would have their funds cut off and the entire Israeli-controlled U.S. media would rise up in anger against them, doing their best to defeat them at the mid-terms.

America should wake up and discover that baboons have taken over their house while they were sleeping and are destroying it, room by room.

For your Christian readers, here are thoroughly apt quotations from the Holy Bible.

‘They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosever killeth you will think that he does God service.’ John 16:2,

and further, ‘Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.’ Galatians 6:7

July 14, 2006

It is just now getting out that certain hackers broke into the Department of State’s most confidential computer files, downloaded much material and put cookies into the system so as to get more material. What did the hackers, as yet unidentified…15 year old kids or foreign intelligence operatives?….get? Well, DoS isn’t talking because it appears from what my friends here have been telling me, they got highly confidential reports sent to them from various embassies in Cairo, Damascus and other countries plus our people in Tel Aviv.

All of this points to a project, now in train, wherein Israel was determined to negate the elevation of Hamas in Palestine by goading the Palestinians into committing acts of violence against them so they could retaliate, retake Gaza, reinstall the settlers, get Hezbollah in Lebanon to do damage so they could nail them and then go after Syria.

What most people do not know is that Mossad and Israeli diplomats meet regularly at Langley with the CIA to exchange information and find ways to assist each other. Also, we share our satellite pictures with them thus saving them the money to put up their own satellites.

This business of provocation, attack and destruction is all very well and good but now they expect, nay, demand, that the Bush people support this. Of course, we cannot because the American public would lynch Bush if he embarked on another, much more serious, war over there but the Israelis will not believe his reluctance. So, they have forced his hand as well as those of the various enemy Arab states and are positive that America will back them.

Mind you, Bush and Cheney have no problems if Israel were to butcher every living Arab in Palestine, Lebanon and especially Syria but we cannot support the resulting war with ground troops.

Also, our military people have told Those in Power, that if the Jews stir up trouble over there to the point of a war, Iran will certainly join in and they do have at least one atomic weapon (obtained from outside the country.) None of this seems to penetrate the Bushites tiny brains and now, their attitude is to take a passive pose whilst mildly suggesting that Israel mind its manners but accusing the Arab states of “wanton provocations.”

Of course, the Israelis started this by deliberately shelling a Gaza beach and killing harmless people having a fun time there but Bush does not seem to realize that he is being used. The upshot of this is that if war comes, as it appears to be doing, we will be in a terrible position because if we rush to aid Israel, we will continue to be condemned by the rest of the world and the war may easily turn into a nuclear slug fest. Israel does have atomic weaponry, thanks to our unofficial assistance in obtaining the raw material from our facilities some years ago. They will use it, probably on their main enemy, Iran, and then the resulting war will cut off much of the world’s oil supply for which Bush and Tel Aviv will be correctly blamed.

And the U.S. military is in a sorry mess now. They have lost at least ten thousand dead and over twenty five thousand seriously enough wounded to preclude further participation in the anti-guerrilla campaign. They lust for a draft but that is not to be because the announcement of a general draft before the mid-term elections would be political suicide for the Republicans.

Instead of a draft, the Bush people have now so lowered the entrance standards for the military that a huge influx of juvenile delinquents, rabid racists, gang members, social misfits of every kind are swelling the ranks and we see the results in the sharp escalation of drug use, sexual violence, disobedience to authority and a serious morale problem with the relatively “normal” troops. American has no control anymore in Iraq which is engaged in a terrible civil war that the puppets in power there have no ability to deal with. This civil unrest has reached such a level that even a serious backer of American occupation in the Pentagon, a personal friend, now tells me, and others, that we have to get out asap.

If a regional war does break out, our troops will then have to fight Syrians and Iranians as well as thousands of very successful guerrillas and the losses would oust the Bush people without fail.

Well, at the risk of being called a cynic, many have said this would happen but until it does, no one listens or cares.

When your sons come back in rubber bags in increasing numbers and gas goes to $6 a gallon, what will you do then?

None of this pending horror is necessary and all of it, all of the suffering, deaths and economic disasters could easily have been avoided. The first thing America should do is to cut Israel completely loose and the second, is to get out of a totally untenable military/political quagmire.

July 10, 2006

Much has been made, by frantic Republicans, of “treason” by the New York Times in releasing material on U.S. surveillance of international banks. This had several days of excitement and then passed away, like so many of the recent “scare” reports. There is and has been concern about real leaks of genuinely sensitive material from various U.S. agencies such as the DoD, the CIA and the DHS. It is no secret that very unhappy professionals in these agencies are indeed leaking reams of material to the public, material that makes the Bush people look like the fascist thugs they are. Pete Hokstra, a fairly loyal Republican, comment acidly on the fact that the Bush people were deliberately hiding information from Congressional committees who had a legal right to know. Great was the fury in the White House and now the poor, browbeaten Hokstra is releasing information about a “plot” inside the CIA to ruin Bush. In that furious CIA staffers have indeed been outing the Bush people, the statement is true but believe me, there is no deep-seated plot on the part of Company senior leaders to thwart and damage Bush’s reputation: he no longer has one to damage. A recent, official but secret White House poll shows Bush with a 29% approval rating and the despised Cheney with only a 12% public approval rating. These figures will never be published in this country but they have been on the international news sites for two days now. Don’t look for them on MSNBC, CNN or most especially, FOX. There is a line from W.B. Yeats in his ‘Second Coming.’ ‘Things fall apart, the centre cannot hold…

The monotonous cry from the Republicans is that Muslim terrorists hate America and only George W. Bush can protect this country. No one has yet discussed why these Muslim terrorists hate America, because of the problems such discussions will cause certain powerful interests.

The sole previous reasons why Muslims hate America and are making war on us, is because of our blind support of Israel. It is a matter of historical fact that Israel was founded on acts of terrorism as bad as the current Muslim ones and in the end, the victorious Eastern European Jews either murdered the Arab inhabitants of Jerusalem or, with the help of British troops, drove them out of their homes and then siezed them for their own use.

The oft-heard argument that “Israel was the homeland” for the Jewish people may well have been true, 2000 years ago, but the current inhabitants of Israel are not Jewish by heritage but by enforced conversion of nomad tribes in Russia in 800. 95% of the Israeli Jews are from this background, not the original Semitics who forced out of Judea by the Romans.

If the United States were to step away from its blind support of Israel, who is certainly not our friend (they are spying on us as a matter of course and have attacked us militarily before) and main a strict neutrality in the Middle East, terrorism against America and its people would cease at once.

But aside from bombs in airplanes or threats of smallpox infestations, there is a far greater threat facing us today than vengeful and patriotic Muslims.

This threat is far more serious and, like the fake Bush “War on Terrorism” completely impossible to neutralize

It is the radical change in the world’s weather.

A recent satellite study of the Greenland ice cap shows that it is melting far faster than scientists had feared - twice as much ice is going into the sea as it was five years ago. The implications for rising sea levels - and climate change - could be dramatic.

· The Greenland icecap contains 1/8th of the total global ice-mass. The total ice-mass on earth is 30 million. cubic km; Antarctica has 27 million.cubic km; Greenland 2.5 million. cubic km.

· The mean height of the Greenland icecap: 2135 meters; 65% of the area lies above 2000 meters;

It has become clearly evident to scientific researchers, that the glaciers of Greenland are melting twice as fast as they were five years ago, even as the ice sheets of Antarctica ” the world's largest reservoir of fresh water ” also are shrinking, researchers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the University of Kansas reported in February.

The Greenland ice cap has been measured, quantified and qualified, and determined to be slightly less than two miles in height and covering an area the approximate size of Mexico This great mass of ice is so heavy that it has pushed the underlying bedrock below the sea level and recent studies indicate that Greenland might well consist of a number of smaller islands. There is no question in scientific circles that should all of this enormous mass of ice should melt, the world’s sea level would be raised by a minimum of21 feet.. This rise, gradual or rapid, would innundate all of the world's coastal areas and their cities, home to a billion people. It would, obviously, cause higher tides, and generate more powerful storm surges and, by altering ocean currents, drastically disrupt the global climate.

In the United States, low-lying coastal areas in Florida, Louisiana, Georgia, the Carolinas, Virginia, Delaware, New Jersey, the entire eastern seaboard section of New York, to include almost all of Long Island except for Montauk, parts of Connecticut, all the coastal areas of Massachusetts including Boston and Cape Cod will certainly be flooded by the rising sea levels An only 1.5 foot rise in sea level will cause the coastline to move 150 feet inland in low-lying areas, resulting in substantial economic, social, and environmental impact.. If, as is now projected by most studies, the Greenland icecap continues to melt at its present speed, the rise in the world’s sea level will rise at least 21 feet and that is not including any melting of the immense Antarctic ice cap which is showing clear signs of rapid meltdown.

The melting of so much ice, and the resulting addition of so much fresh water to the ocean, will without question, impact the circulation of currents and affect regional climate. And further, if all, or a significant portion, the ice in the Antarctic area continues to melt at its present, the sea levels will rise 150 feet overall.

The actual time span of the rising sea level is not known at the present time. Since the sea level varies from area to area, determining the rise of the water level is not a positive science. However, tentative input would indicate that the sea levels taken at the Azores, Britain, Norway and Georgia indicate a rise of at least six inches in the past twelve months. Also, the so-called ‘Atlantic Overturn’ or the Gulf Stream, has been forced over 170 miles further south from its previous position and has dropped 25 degrees of temperature. This will result in far more severe winters in Ireland, Britain, northern France, Holland, Denmark, Norway, the northern coast of Germany, the Baltic states and European Russia. At the same time, it is more than possible that warming conditions in other northern areas such as Greenland, Iceland, northern Canada, Alaska and parts of Siberia will continue unabated.

Studies initially stated that while the melting of the world’s glacial ice was in progress and accelerating, the time frame of a total meltdown had not been established. Now, with more intensive studies, this period has dropped from an initial estimate of a thousand years to a hundred and finally, the most recent calculations predict that if the accelerating melt rate continues, both in Greenland, Antarctia and elsewhere (Swiss and Chinese glaciers are rapidly vanishing and their waters are pouring into the world’s oceans) the time frame has been lowered from between three to ten years.

This subject has been of considerable concern to various governmental and business entities around the globe. This is a disaster that cannot be circumvented and the economic destruction wrought by it cannot be calculated. Because it is inevitable, the general official policies are that while this might happen at some very distant point in the future, at present there is no cause for worry. Any scientific body subject to government control via financial support, has been strictly warned that any hint of early flooding will be met with severe economic reprisals and that while it can be admitted that there is some melting due to undetermined global warming trends, absolutely no “fright predictions” are ever to be issued.

Major American insurance companies have taken notice of these coming predictions and, coupled with the increasingly violent tropical storms that have devastated and will continue to devastate, American low-lying coastal areas and have declined to insure residents and businesses in these areas.

If this subject receives greater public exposure, many residents and businesses will remove to higher, and safer, ground but their obvious problem would be in finding a buyer stupid enough to purchase their doomed homes and businesses. None of this takes into account further economic havoc wrought by rapidply rising sea levels. Seaports would be rendered useless, coastal roadways and railways would be put out of service, the coastal infrastructures would be flooded, power, water and sewage systems destroyed and in general, areas now home to millions of people with many billions of dollars worth of residences, businesses and long-established infrastructure will simply be under water.

Herein lies the real reason behind the official denials and muted threats of economic revenge against whom they are now calling “ doom criers.”

None of these analysis are secret and anyone who wishes to do so, can easily access any major information service, like the excellent Google, and see the great number of reports for themselves.

July 2, 2006

Several topics of some interest to your readers. The first deals with an old U.S. perceived enemy, Cuba’s Fidel Castro. Castro is getting old (80) and the Bush people are now determined, in light of Cuba’s alliance with anti-US Venezuela’s Chavez, that Cuba has to be knocked off the playing field. The means? The same as the CIA used in Georgia and the Ukraine with success and in Venezuela with failure: bribe the opposition into overturning the government from the inside. In the case of Cuba, the instrument is the so-called Commission for Assistance to a Free Cuba, created by Bush in 2003.

The standard method of régime change has been to locate known opponents of the target such as external exiles (no matter how undependable or unsavory…a convicted child molester if useful, would become “a great patriot who is seeking to bring freedom and democracy to ----- [fill in the blank here].) Internal dissidents, such as the Waahibists in Saudi Arabia or the Chechens, are funded to foment rebellion and public disturbances which are expected to lead to “referendum votes” and the removal of an objectionable (to U.S. policies) leadership. There is then a general election, heavily rigged (like the Rove American 2000 Presidential campaign) and our choices are lofted into power…and maintained there with U.S. money and promises of military support in the event it is needed or, in the event of their being ousted, and not dismembered by the public, asylum in great comfort in Virginia safe houses.

I wrote to you about certain odd happenings at Treasury, the stockpiling of large amounts of cash around the United States with the excuse being given of disruption caused by an expected outbreak of “Asian bird flu.” Well, I have been informed that this is half right and half wrong. There is a stockpiling of cash at various key points in America but this has nothing to do with an “Asian bird flu” epidemic. It has to do with smallpox being used against the U.S. as a bioterrorist weapon. When I have more on this, I will discourse on it.

There has been some weird funny business over at the Treasury department. There seems to be some kind of a fear that there might be an outbreak of an unspecified “deadly disease” in the United States,

The U.S. Mint, Bureau of Engraving and Printing and the Federal Reserve are busily engaged in producing a record number of banknotes and coins so that, “we can ensure that banknote and coin inventories would be adequate if financial institutions need extra supplies.”

The rumor is that this is supposed to be in anticipation of “bird flu” but a contact tells me that this is a cover for something much bigger. We know that Congress has appropriated over $6 billion to prepare for a “flu epidemic” but no one I know believes that this will happen and there is no proof that the flu has moved from birds to people in any significant numbers.

Anyone who looks at the CDC and WHO websites can verify what I am saying and yet there is considerable concern over something in the health field. There also has been some heavy duty activity over in Maryland where Cheney lives, according to a loose-lipped Secret Service fellow but other than that, there is nothing concrete. I will dig into this story and see if there is anything there, other than some scare crap designed to get out a frightened vote for the Protectors of the Republican Faith come November.

The recent exposure of American spying on international bank transfers only touches the tip of a very volatile subject.

This spying operation was given the code name, at one point, of <>Xystus III<> and here is a capsulated background of the current operations of a massive, global American spy program that eventually has been turned back onto its creators.

The original concept, as set forth by Vice President Cheney, was to investigate large transfers of money connected with possible terrorist activity and was officially promulgated at the beginning of 2002. All American banking systems were requested, then required, to make all of their records “fully available” to U.S. investigative bodies, without subpoena and that under no circumstances would the targets be informed by the bank system involved.

All the major American banking systems: Bank of America, Bank One, Chase-Manhattan and others, were involved. After the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security, this project was turned over to them.

Through the wholehearted assistance of one Lenny Schrank, who set up, and currently runs, the Belgian-based Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication or S.W.I.F.T., the Cheney people got a foothold in the world of international financial trading.

Initially, this was a legitimate exploratory operation, designed to track funds to and from Muslim countries, and entities, who practiced or tolerated terrorist activities and this included: Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Somalia, the UAE, the Russian Republic, Ireland, the United Kingdom, India, Indonesia and the Philippians. I wondered about the addition of Saudi Arabia to this but I learned that the CIA believes that the Saud family is losing its grip on this very valuable oil-rich country and has struck a deal with the opposition Wahhabists. They now know, thanks to the DHS diggings, where the Saudi royal family has been stashing all of its money and they assume the fundamentalist Wahhbists will foment revolution (which they will become interested in helping) and their payoff will be the US forcing the banks to disgorge the Saudi funds. These will then be used to pay off the Wahhabist leaders, saving the US a great deal of bribe money. Later, Venezuela, Bolivia, Cuba, Costa Rica, Spain, Italy, Switzerland and France were added to the list.

The DHS has stations located in various cities in the United States who are responsible for specific areas of financial interest and they worked, and have worked, closely with the Department of State who have been called upon to apply “extreme diplomatic pressure” to countries whose banking systems are reluctant to cooperate with this program. In addition to the S.W.I.F.T people:

SWIFT: Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication
Avenue Adèle 1, B-1310 La Hulpe, Belgium Tel: 01132-2655-31-11

List of Offices: who were informed by their pro-Cheney CEO that the U.S. spy program was a “highly limited and temporary” program for the interdiction of global terrorists. Later, when the executives in this organization began to have concerns that this program had grown to complete surveillance of any and all transactions, their objections were dealt with very severely by the Department of State through the Embassy in Belgium.

In addition to the Belgian clearing house, the following other bank transfer systems were also used to track the flow of money. Some of these were entirely willing, in the beginning, but later started having regrets and others had no knowledge that their systems had been penetrated by computer hackers in the paid employ of the DHS (a central California branch has been responsible mainly for these break-ins)

These now consist of:

BOJ-NET: Bank Of Japan Clearing House

BOJNET: Electronic wire transfer system overseen by the Bank of Japan.

CHAPS: Clearing House Automated Payments System (Operated by the Bankers Clearing House of London)

· CHAPS: Clearing House Automated Payments System. Operated by the Bankers Clearing House of London, CHAPS is used for interbank messaging and wire transfers involving British Pounds.

Also being surveilled are banking systems in the PRC, South Korea, Singapore, Mumbai, Australia, Canada, Spain, Italy and Turkey. Another excellent DHS source of information are the FUNDS WIRING SERVICES: Although there are many wire transfer services, they must each use the basic services such as Fedwire, S.W.I.F.T, or BOJNET. Examples of wire money transfer services are Western Union, Moneygram, Eurigro, Sterling Draft Service, and the <>various payment services available on the Internet such as Paypal<>

One of the prime aims of the current Administration is to prevent Americans from shipping money to overseas banks, to purchase and hold foreign currencies such as the euro, and to invest; most especially, in Russian businesses. Cheney is a die-hard Cold Warrior who still hates the Russians in general and Putin in particular. He has said, in my presence, that Putin, once a colonel in the KGB, was a “retread Commie shit” and he, Cheney, was the one behind the régime change in the Ukraine. Cheney isn’t the brightest boy on the block and has a huge opinion of his cleverness but Putin trumped his ace over the Ukraine. Cheney was hoping to put in an anti-Putin government in the Ukraine and then grab off the oil and steel mills. Unfortunately for Tiny Dick, the Donets basin borders on Russia and has a very large Russian population.

As the Ukrainian constitution allowed a region to withdraw and form its own government, the Donets area immediately proclaimed they were going to drop out of the Ukrainian Union and petition Russia to let them join the Russian republic. This marked the end of the Cheney dream and he has now lost all interest in that country, stating that “who needs more fucking farmland?”

From a co-worker who works in the Vice President’s circle, we learn that Cheney was in such a rage about the <>New York Times<> exposure of the Schrank business that he was turning bright red and banging the furniture. As Cheney has a very bad heart, his staff have tried to calm him down, fearing the worst.

While these bank surveillance programs initially dealt only with <>genuinely suspect groups and individuals<>, Cheney and his party saw this as an excellent opportunity to “get a handle” on any individual or organization that they viewed as possible present or future domestic (and foreign) political opposition.

DHS now fully monitors any unusually large amounts of money transferred, among many others, to the ACLU, P.E.T.A., MoveOn.org, the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, Servicemembers Legal Defense Network, Iraq Veterans Against the War, Defenders of Wildlife, and EarthJustice, as well as contributions of any size to Antiwar.com, Greenpeace, Cindy Sheehan's Gold Star Families For Peace, and any of the Muslim organizations, regardless of their nature, found on the DHS/governmental hit list, as well as any American, or foreign, citizen found on the “secret” (it has been published on the Internet!) ‘no fly list.’

What this means is that any American citizen who contributes money to what the Cheney people deem to be “subversive” groups will, without a doubt, have their private lives quickly and thoroughly invaded and any information gleaned from the many sites like ‘Choice Point,’ ‘TRW’ or Wackenhut added to the huge, and growing, ‘enemies list’ of the Republican Administration.

Unfortunately for the security of this massive intrusion program, the United States has made the colossal error of informing their opposite intelligence numbers in Israel with the result that while we were sharing requested information with Israeli Intelligence, they, in turn were initiating their very own program directed against the United States. The following American financial institutions have been the subject of on-going Israeli surveillance:

· CHIPS: Clearing House Interbank Payments System
100 Broad Street, New York, NY 10004 (212) 613-0188

· CHIPS: Clearing House Interbank Payments System. An interbank payment system related to international trade, CHIPS is used for the transfer of international trade dollars. CHIPS is used by both Fedwire and S.W.I.F.T.

· FEDWIRE: Operated by the Federal Reserve Board of the USA


· ACH: Automated Clearing House of the Federal Reserve Bank of NY

What the Israelis are looking for is not information on Arab terrorists because they currently have a huge data base on this subject, (much of which they have not shared with their American counterparts), but to locate damaging information on Americans of influence, such as Congressmen, high level U.S. officials and leading American business and religious leaders, who have been suspected of hiding large sums of illegally obtained money (from bribes mostly) in foreign/offshore banks and who could be considered as being subject to effective blackmail.

Unfortunately for the United States, a number of former Russian citizens now work for Israeli intelligence and at least a few of them have been sending all the Israeli information straight to Moscow.

Much of this highly damaging political fiscal information has also been sent by Israelis to an American political group. This is a group that are fanatical supporters of Governor Dean, and others of his kind (of the Gene McCarthy stripe) now head of the Democratic Party and once a candidate for the Presidency. Dean has an excellent computer and internet network that initially was developed by his people for his failed campaign and it is with them that the Israelis have been cooperating .

The reasons for this cooperative friendliness? Dean and his internet supporters are <>extremely<> pro-Israel (Dean’s wife is Jewish as are the head, and many members, of his Internet group) and Israel feels that if Dean had sufficient damaging material on the current leadership, great pressure could be placed on them, via threatened exposure on their website, to permit Dean to have another, and this time, successful, run at the Presidency in 2008.

Anti-Semitism is on the rise in America and a provable pro-Israeli president would be of great value to Tel Aviv.

The futile and debilitating military campaigns in both Afghanistan and Iraq are having a terrible toll on the more fanatic of the Republicans. The public is growing more and more unhappy so we now have Bush and his people frantically trying to drum up support for the continuation of the war.

Bush doesn’t want to lose face and the Neocons are still frantically trying to support their very own precious Israel.

It’s a poor idea to beat the war drums in Congress and this will have a very negative response in the vote in November but frightened people show little common sense. We can expect more of the ‘Fright Quotient’ propaganda. (‘We Republicans are all that stand between the beloved American people and utter destruction by huge armies of Muslim terrorists!) They point out that if it weren’t for the presence of George W. Bush at the helm, our cities would already be smoldering rubble and every women between 6 and 60 would be gang raped by raving Arabs.

Actually, the Muslims are much too busy cutting our throats in Iraq (where the death tolls are not coming down) to come over and stick pipe bombs in milk trucks in Dallas but the absence of any unexpected explosions is explained as a great Bush triumph.

I get to read all kinds of reports from the FBI and the DHS and believe me, if the Muslim terrorists wanted to blow things up, put chemicals in our water supply or otherwise behave in an antisocial way, there is nothing at all to stop them. The only ones who are inconvenienced by the burgeoning prying, snooping, phone-tapping, bank box break-ins, library surveillance and a host of other useless nonsense are the rest of us. Surely, an overview of the readers at the public library in Des Moines, Iowa, is not going to uncover an unsuspected cell of deadly turnip assassins.

Also, the agencies (and their leaders) have an excuse to get huge appropriations of cash from Congress, cash they don’t have to account for because, my dear, it’s SECRET! BMW and summer home dealers are the ones who profit from all of this massive FEMA-like thievery, not us.

Once-upon-a-time we could trust our elected and appointed officials to be honest and sincere men but now they all steal everything in sight, stash it in offshore banks and snigger around the Beltway like a whore with a drunken millionaire trick.

June 19, 2006

An article in the NYT today about a former senior Coast Guard officer, now a “consultant” for both the DHS and a private security firm. Seems he has been pushing the DHS and Congress to install a super expensive detection system in all of our ports to look for explosives. Also turns out that his other job makes the very equipment he is pushing. Who cares if the equipment works? There is always the Biblical exhortation about no man being able to serve two masters.

I have said it many times before that corruption is so bad in Washington that even Third World countries are shocked. One gets arrested for this while hundreds keep right on going like the Energizer bunny. The wholesale thievery by FEMA people, the utter corruption in Florida and other states boggles the imagination. Sleazy “contractors” have made more money than the national debt of Cambodia in a two week period.

Cheney claimed to have divested himself of his stock in Halliburton as the law required. The law did not require him to dispose of his stock options and Cheney has huge options on Halliburton stock which his actions have boosted into the stratosphere. When he retires, he can exercise the options and will become richer than he is now.

If some huge chemical complex is in deliberate violation of various environmental laws, they only have to call upon Bush and remind him of how much money they have put into his, and the Republican Party’s, coffers to get a presidential order nullifying any law they want.

Here is a fictional story but one that is absolutely true: The government of Taiwan wants special favors from the White House. How do they get this? By dragging in a mattress cover stuffed with hundred dollar bills and dropping it on Bush’s desk in the Oval Office. The next day, Taiwan gets what it wants. Is this the end of the story? No. The PRC gets wind of this and a week later, one of their people drags in two mattress covers stuffed with hundred dollar bills and dropping it on Bush’s desk in the Oval Office. And the next day, Taiwan is s.o.l.

There are a number of interesting matters to attend to but first off, a brief discussion of Ann Coulter. The publication, by Random House, of her latest rant, caused quite a backlash, even among Republicans. Coulter thrives on what she calls ‘Controversy” but everyone other than a Republican right wing nut calls bad taste. This backlash is all over the Internet and the article by the TBR contributor, Harry Brunser alleging that Coulter is actually a man (long suspected but certainly not proven) has added fuel to the fire.

I met Coulter once at a Republican function and did not like her at all. Scrawny, naturally flat-chested (What Nature Has Forgotten, Ann will Remedy with Cotton!) with the ugly, skinny legs of a crane and a huge adams apple, she does not show her 53 years, mainly because of her ongoing bulimia coupled with the attentions of a cosmetic surgeon. Her long blonde hair is obviously dyed (the roots show clearly up close) and a slight thickening of the lesser alar cartilage of her nose was a sure sign of “cosmetic surgery.”

Some have called her, not in jest, a Poster Girl for the far right and in this, based on my observations of the latter, is right on. The members of the far right, who idolize Coulter, are small-minded, racist , viciously intolerant of anyone who is not a northern European Protestant, black-despisers (‘Welfare Whores!’) and in general, creatures with hearts the size of mustard seeds. Coulter is a perfect icon for this group, which now wants to completely control the United States and continue to receive enormous tax relief from the Bush people, but to the rest of the country, she is an evil, supercilious elitist with genuine delusions of grandeur and reference.

Coulter is a lawyer and when the old question is asked, “What is black and brown and looks wonderful on a lawyer?” no one is offended when the answer is, “a Doberman.”

Now on to other issues: Now that Karl Rove is no longer under threat of indictment (not innocent <>per se<> but the charges are not sufficiently substantiated to bring him to trial) he is running around the country, bragging that we are winning in Iraq and that Bush will “stay the course” until the end. No one ever doubted Bush would hold out in Iraq until the end and that if, by some sick chance, another idiot like himself got into the White House by the by-now commonplace voter frauds (see below) that they would keep Americans in that country until Hell froze over. The Bush people are now believing their own lies and for some reason, having removed the head of one terrorist group (there are hundreds of other groups but never mind that) we have won. No military leader believes any of this political puffery for a second but that doesn’t matter to Bush. He will strut his skinny body around the country (at taxpayers expense, naturally) crowing like a drunken rooster while more soldiers and (unimportant) civilians die or are maimed for life. Reality will set in after a time and as the mid terms approach, the Republican leadership will become even more frantic to keep power.

The story we reported about the Bush people using the Canadian arrest of (suspected) terrorists as a goad to terrify the American public seems to have come a cropper. Even the media is laughing at the invented stories about cutting off of the head of the Canadian Prime Minister so this one, like so many other Republican games, has gone away.

One of my co-workers showed me a paper indicating that the Bush people, outraged that the various states are passing laws that annoy Bush and thwart his evil designs on control, are planning to initiate “pre-emption” laws that would, in effect, override any State legislation with a Federal law that would simply quash any state legislation the Bush people did not like. The case made in the paper was that the fact that many states were passing laws against gas guzzling motor vehicles had enraged both the oil industry and the automotive industry. As both of these regularly send huge bribes not only to Congress but to the Bush people personally (Karl Rove has had special deep pockets sewn into his suits to hold the money he gets) it is seen as vital for Bush to stop this trend.

From a political, socio-economic and moral point of view, Washington has become a Third World country like Mexico or Egypt where bribes are the rule, not the exception. Since the beginning of the Republic, dealing in favors in Washington has been relative common but now, the arrogant and thoroughly corrupt Republican administration has raised bribery and blatant corruption to a major national art.

Another matter Rove is attending to, with his well-honed expertise, is to see how the mid terms can be stolen. Rove was the driving force behind the obviously rigged Florida elections in 2000 and the Ohio debacle in 2004. The problem seems to be that the cooperative Diebold people, whose voting machines are as crooked as a dog’s hind leg, are being thrown out of many states as ‘being susceptible to deliberate interference’ from unspecified but obvious outside parties. When a criminal act is performed, the police always try to find out who benefits from it.

The national flap over the genuinely nasty Ann Coulter is actually a tempest in a teapot. Coulter represents, very clearly, a portion of the Republican Party that delights in executions, torture, physical control of minorities, special economic privileges, total support for Israel, gross religious intolerance for everyone not a white-bread right winger, and anyone not white. Coulter is cold and calculating (and a great deal older than she lets on…one more face lift and she’ll have to shave every day!) People like Bush and his trained dwarves love her because she so clearly articulates their own wizened souls. Like the crazy DaVinci Code novel, Coulter has her circle of devoted followers and delights in making vicious jabs at widows and mourning mothers that would make even Cheney wince. Most of the decent people on the White House staff have left the Monkey Palace quite a while ago and they have been quickly replaced with the Coulter types. What, one wonders, will happen when the giant Permanent Republican Control shatters to pieces? Where will these shallow, vicious people find work? Gassing kittens at the ASPCA? Masked pedophiles lurking near playgrounds in unmarked vans? We ought to stuff the lot of them in the torture cells at Gitmo and give them all sharp razor blades with the hopes they will use them. Gitmo is America’s Auschwitz in all its fascistic glory. And creeps like Cheney and Rumsfeld won’t be able to make huge, illegal profits from their various under-the-table investments in government supported companies. In the meantime, we have to deal with Coulter, the latter-day Bitch of Belsen.

An interesting report I read yesterday, for want of anything better to do, tells us that of the circa 150 oil drilling platforms (out of 2,000) in the upper Gulf of Mexico that were completely flattened by Katrina and Rita, only 25 have been put back into operation. The very present fear is that another season with some Force 5 storms could easily roar up into the Gulf and take out more platforms. If our industry can only get such a small number of wrecked oil platforms up in a year’s time, think of the disaster if, say, sixty or seventy more platforms were dumped this summer. If you think the price of gas is bad now, wait until then. Bush has been talking about releasing the official U.S. oil reserves but this wouldn’t cover thirty days of domestic consumption.

And the CIA sent over a report on rumors that Russia was going to move its Black Seas Fleet to a port on the eastern Mediterranean (Syria) It seems that the Bush people (read CIA) have been pressuring the Ukrainians to kick Putin out of the Crimea. After all, the CIA bribed dissidents in the Ukraine to change the pro-Moscow government there and are now following this dubious victory up with more mindless mischief. If Putin actually does move the fleet down to the Med, he will be accomplishing something the Tsars tried to do for centuries; get a warm-water port. That Stalin and his successors did not do this is because the U.S. would have once threatened Russia with immediate military retaliation.

Now, with our military power in shambles, we can only get Congoleeza to screech at them and the obnoxious and ineffectual Bolton to stick out his tongue at the UN. Our present serious weaknesses, both economic, political and military, are emboldening our many, and growing, enemies to ignore what they all see are empty threats.

I only hope those who voted for Bush are happy with the outcome of their bad judgment.

It is interesting to note the sudden interest Bush and his people are expressing in the so-called "gay marriage" issue. Considering the slipping economy, the soaring (and permanent) gas prices, the growing death tolls in Iraq and Afghanistan, the obvious corruption at the highest levels, the revelations of torture and murder of civilians by the U.S. military, the down-played high death tolls of U.S. servicemen and other matters, the "gay marriage" issue is a very crude attempt to deflect attention to Bush's sinking approval ratings (26%) and the desertion of the Republican and Christian right. In upper establishment circles on the East Coast, it is generally known that Bush himself led a gay-lifestyle while at Yale and has surrounded himself with gays such as Rove, Mehlman, the awful "Gannon" and others. This is typical of Bush who is vicious and small-minded. An unloved and unpleasant child, he has been supported by his family and high-level Republicans, the latter seeing in him an easily-controlled cipher to launch and support their far-right programs. Now, even these fanatic hopefuls have deserted him. Perhaps his mother can get him a job representing Mobil/Exxon oil company as their Moscow representative. The Russians do not suffer fools gladly and would make short work of him.

Memorial Day usually marks the beginning of America’s summer vacation season but this year is not like any other. Gas prices are soaring at the pump because the actions of the Bush people have, directly and indirectly, forced the price of imported oil into an upward spiral from which it will not come down. Hotels, eating establishments, air lines, amusement parks, and their interconnected businesses are starting to hurt very badly. Hotels are offering rebates to guests who drive but their occupancy rates are still starting a long, downward slide. We can attribute some of this to the oil companies who are making obscene profits and the balance to the Bush administration whose insane policies have led directly to this serious economic crisis.

You might be overjoyed to lean that Bush has now called on Americans to conserve gasoline by doing less driving, because of the current increase in imported oil which is now inching upwards from $75. a barrel of crude. This is being reflected in the nation’s pump prices which now are over $3.00 a gallon and in some states, over $3.50. Initial views that this jump in price, which has allowed major American oil companies to reap billions of dollars in profits, was only a “fluke” and would soon come down, just in time for the peak summer vacation travel season. This has not happened and the industry now believes that, “given the present state of the market, we can expect retail prices of between $4 to $5 a gallon.”. Bush also issued a directive for federal agencies to reduce energy consumption, urging employees to share cars or use public transport!

Bush has said that it was up to all Americans to "pitch in" by being better conservers of energy

“If it makes sense for the citizen out there to curtail non-essential travel, it darn sure makes sense for federal employees ... We can encourage employees to car pool or use mass transit, and we can shift peak electricity use to off-peak hours. There's ways for the federal government to lead when it comes to conservation," he said.

Typically, our Beloved Christian President says one thing but does another. Note that Bush's motorcade, which typically has dozens of motorcycle outriders, several gas-guzzling vans, SUVs, Bush's heavy, armor-plated limousine, and an identical limo put in as a decoy, sucks up an enormous amount of gas. Fuel consumption is even higher on Bush's cross-country travels - which include flights on Air Force One as well as helicopters for the president, his staff, secret service agents, and the press corps that accompanies him. The air force recently estimated fuel costs for Air Force One at $8,219 per hour. Bush was also said to be reminding his staff to turn off lights! One of my co-workers read this and asked me if that was the reason Bush turned off the lights in his Oval Office lavatory when he and Jeff Gannon were practicing Hide-the Zucchini last year. Probably.

Hopefully, Fitzgerald will do the right, Christian, thing and bust Fat Karl the Eunuch in the near future and with that evil toad out of the White House, most of his sly innuendos, threats of blackmail and general viciousness will fade away, leaving a whimpering Bush weeping over the loss of his beloved Turd Blossom. (That, by God, is really Bush’s fitting nickname for Rove!)

Why not stay at home this year? So many are going to (but not out of choice) and the NYT reports that people are having to sell their vacation homes because it costs too much to drive to them. All across America, I can see millions of happy Americans, sitting in darkness (because of rolling power shutoffs due to oil shortages) but with candles lit in front of a picture of the President. They are drawing spiritual warmth from his kindly, Christian countenance and, because the dollar has tanked, warming their hands over a fire made with worthless dollar bills. Have a happy vacation, friends, and remember all of this misery, and who is responsible for it, in November.
