It is very apparent to everyone here in Washington, even to the floor-polishers and sewer inspectors of the District, that McCain is rapidly losing any chance of gaining the presidency of the United States. There is a strong and growing perception that the ageing McCain appears constantly confused, stumbles badly, mumbles and constantly contradicts himself in public. Many of my friends are beginning to express pity for him, the certain kiss of political death. They are, in essence, damning him with faint praise and leering with civil assent. The American media, who thought McCain was wonderful because he joked with them on his bus, are now trying to depict the very competent Obama as a rock star in comparison, I suppose, with a McCain who looks like he is running for the position of county commissioner in some small retirement community in Kansas . As a certain sign of his implosion, the internet is being flooded with reams of grotesque and very fake messages, mostly from non-existent “military” people, a la the vicious and thankfully-vanished Karl Rove. By the way, Rove did not retire from the halls of power to write his memoirs or raise orchids but left, very quickly, because of a really unwholesome incident in Rock Creek Park that was witnessed, and captured on video, by two horrified tourists from Canada . Here is a sample of the Rove-like trash put out by surrogates of the desperate McCain people. While this might possibly fool born-again ninnies in Iowa , sane people will only laugh.:

Hello everyone,

As you know I am not a very political person. I just wanted to pass along that Senator Obama came to Bagram Afghanistan for about an hour on his visit to 'The War Zone'. I wanted to share with you what happened. He got off the plane and got into a bullet proof vehicle, got to the area to meet with the Major General (2 Star) who is the=2 0 commander here at Bagram.

As the Soldiers where lined up to shake his hand he blew them off and didn't say a word as he went into the conference room to meet the General. As he finished, the vehicles took him to the ClamShell (pretty much a big top tent that military personnel can play basketball or work out in with weights) so he could take his publicity pictures playing basketball. He again shunned the opportunity to talk to Soldiers to thank them for their service.

So really he was just here to make a showing for the American's back home that he is their candidate for President. I think that if you are going to make an effort to come all the way over here you would thank those that areproviding the freedom that they are providing for you.

I swear we got more thanks from the NBA Basketball Players or the Dallas Cowboy Cheer leaders than from one of the Senators, who wants to be the President of the United States . I just don't understand how anyone would want him to be our Commander-and-Chief. It was almost that he was scared to be around those that provide the freedom for him and our great country.

If this is blunt and to the point I am sorry but I wanted you all to know what kind of caliber of person he really is. What you see in the news is all fake.

In service,

The ferocious costs of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars have virtually drained the U.S. Treasury and I learn now that the IRS has been handed its marching papers by the Administration to find and deliver to the aforesaid Treasury, as much money as they can squeeze from delinquent taxpayers. A new bill allows the IRS unlimited access to all American credit card accounts (the government is especially interested in people buying gold) and many, many Americans who are self-employed will be investigated thoroughly. A report just issued says that that there is at least $60 billion in unpaid taxes due. The IRS is now also interested in the field of fine art because many people are “investing” in art in the hopes of protecting assets they do not want the IRS to discover (and tax). One Swiss bank loophole has been closed (but there are still many more ways in which citizens can hide their assets) and more are being worked on, even as I speak. Both gold and the art market are the twin areas of new, intense government interest now so don’t tell anyone about that Rembrandt in your living room and buy your gold in small lots from coin dealers (not the ‘Gold Investment’ firms who love big, splashy ads) and pay cash for it. Rare stamps are another good investment and have the advantage of being very portable and are easy to hide. Oh and insurance companies that insure art are being approached to open their files to the IRS investigators. Next, they will be slapping a tax on sex and you can expect drooling investigators to be hiding under your beds with cameras, tape recorders and rubber gloves!

Independence Day is upon us. The only way the American people can really be independent is if we reinvent Congress by throwing out all of the corrupt legislators and replacing them with genuine representatives who reflect the wishes of their constituencies and not the interests of those with money enough to bribe them. Since it is obvious the oil monarchs are not going to lower the artificially inflated price of gasoline, an inflation that is slowly crippling our nation, the oil companies should be nationalized. Regulatory agencies that are, in theory at least, designed to protect the public but which the Bush people have deliberately and steadily been emasculated need to be rebuilt to serve the public, not private, needs. The public has no real idea how utterly corrupt and worthless most of our legislators have become. Every-growing greed is rampant but the Senate, for example, is considered to be an exclusive club, Larry Craig’s lavatory fumblings aside, so Senators do not discipline their own fellows even though their corruption is known to each and every one of them. The proliferation of male and female “escort services” in the District area is incredible. There are more whores now on the streets than inside the Capitol building and it is known that any kind of strange, perverted sexual services are readily available. After all, look at the Guckert/Gannon case wherein a known male homosexual prostitute with a website, was invited into the White House, in the evenings, on fourteen separate occasions and allowed to remain there for the entire night. Persistent rumors here is that he was boffing the President have never been disproved but the obedient press has maintained a dignified silence. The right wing media, such as the drug addict Limbaugh, loved to attack Clinton for his minor affairs with women but have maintained strict silence on the many homosexual and S&M activities of a significant number of top Republicans. Get rid of them all and start in all over again. Of course, the corruption will start to grow again but for a few years, decency and not debauchery will prevail in the halls of Congress and we will all be the better for it.

Israel has not destroyed Tehran with their deadly bagel bombs, Bush is swiftly fading into blessed obscurity like the Cheshire Cat, McCain is taking his medications and acting more and more like poor Uncle Rupert who walks outside buck naked and the oil barons are in states of ecstasy over their obscene profits. Now that the old driving seasons is arriving, they are going to jack up the price of gasoline to five dollars. Of course they will show restraint when summer is over and bring it down a few dollars. On the other hand, when winter arrives, the price of heating oil will break through the stratosphere into outer space. This will result in many people freezing to death if the winter, as expected, will be severe but this won’t bother the oil barons who will be enjoying the sun in their Monaco homes on the relatively warm Mediterranean. And let’s hope the Republicans don’t engineer a fake terrorist attack in late October. They would certainly love to do this but this time around, that sort of thing might backfire.

June 25, 2008

Much ‘leaked’ disinformation about a ‘possible Israeli attack on Iran.’ Of course this silly business, which ranks with the constant fear crap peddled by desperate Republicans, is supposed to terrify Iran and, hopefully, energize Bush into doing the dirty deed himself. Unfortunately for the Israelis, a number of their new former Russian citizens were SVR (read 'KGB' here) sleeper agents and believe me, anything of a secret nature passing from the United States to Israel ends up in Moscow the same day. The Russians have more than one agent in place in Tel Aviv operating so if one gets caught, another is still active. Perhaps the Russians could find some loose-mouthed fool, 'hire' them as a 'special agent,' fill them with disinformation, send them to Israel and, if they get into their intelligence, tip off the Mossad that they are a Russian spy and let them pour our all the misleading and, hopefully, destructive, disinformation.. Mumbling McCain suggested we send a battleship to the Persian Gulf! My God, he should really take his medications! The Russians have surface-to-surface missiles well-emplaced (and hidden from satellites) in the Iranian mountains that would make short shrift of any large ship in such a confined area, and besides, there are no battleships in commission. If the U.S. Navy were used against Iran, they would have to stand off in the Indian Ocean to launch their aircraft. I often wonder why the resistance Muslims in Iraq don't put a limpet mine under one of the huge oil tankers that dock off of Basra. If it went off halfway down the Gulf towards the Straits of Hormuz, the result would be a huge oil spill that no one would care about but it would also frighten off the London-based insurance companies and they would stop insuring the huge and very expensive tankers. No insurance company would insure and no ship owner would dare risk his enormous investment. Ergo, no Iraqi oil. Besides, there is now a movement afoot in Congress to put aside the Bush-ordered no-bid contracts by major oil companies on Iraqi oil. The worm turns but very slowly.

The Beltway is always awash in rumor, speculation, lies and perversions. Plans to do this or that are sent around, none of which will ever be executed but indicate the mind-sets of the writers. We have Mr. Yoo, the lawyer for Justice who delighted in finding ways to legally torture people. He is now a professor at Berkeley and they deserve him, believe me.

The latest piece of psychotic garbage comes from the Cheney people who have been sending out trial queries to various agencies. There are no real secrets here but everyone thinks there are. And now what is the latest? Why nothing but a strong suggestion that the United States use their long-stored but certainly extant biological weaponry against the countries of Southeast Asia , to include: China , Indonesia , Vietnam , and others. Bombs, you ask? No, destruction of vital SEA food supplies by the introduction of deadly plant diseases.

The idea is to start this nastiness remote from our shores and to use agents that would not thrive in the colder United States so they cannot spread here. That they would certainly spread to Burma , India and other countries has never been considered. The Aussies had this project on their plate some years ago and the project has become a father in that piece of CIA-type nastiness.

Mass SEA starvation would benefit the United States , the proponents suggest, by cutting down the huge populations almost overnight and would also remove any direct threat to the United States for many years to come. If later there is a resurgence of population in China , it won’t be on their watch.

And, of course, destroying their crops and eventually causing the spread of famine and inevitable death, would have the added advantage of preserving the physical assets of the collapsed countries, assets like the great untapped Viethamese oil fields and the factories of China .

Rice is the primary target and we already have developed diseases that would not only wipe out a current rice crop but could so contaminate the growing areas that rice could not be a crop for several generations.

Will this happen? Probably not but the thinking, and the means exist and that is bad enough. When they talk about demolishing nuclear weapons (which is a huge joke) why not add biological weapons to the list?

That will never happen, either.

June 20, 2008

I would say that at least 200 people working here in D.C. are fully aware, and have read the official and highly classified reports, that the oil people are grabbing everything they can here before the pliant and crooked Bush and Cheney have to leave. They want the ability to drill offshore when and where they please and now, with Bush’s help, they are sewing up all the Iraqi oil production with the usual Bush-approved no bid leases. Everything here is now ‘no bid.’ If Halliburton needed 300 billions in U.S. taxpayer’s money, Bush would demand it and the ass-kissing Congress would cheerfully give it to him, just like they have just given the crooked and conspiratorial U.S. telephone companies like AT&T and their parent company, SBC, a free pass on their connivance with Bush to snoop on all of us. In Washington , money not only talks, it screams. The high gas prices? The Arabs are to blame? Oh no, Bush and Cheney are directly responsible for this. Sweet crude light is now $45 a barrel in Saudi Arabia although the industry claims this is not so. It is and their profits are not only obscene and criminal but they are doing terrible damage to the American economy and driving more and more people here into bankruptcy. The only solution is to nationalize the oil industry, all of it, and then prosecute the thieves who have, entirely on their own, pushed gas to what is going to be $5 a gallon, just in time for the summer vacation driving times. This is not an accident. It will also not be an accident when the price of gas drops a dollar or so after the season is over but guess what? The price of heating oil will shoot up just in time for winter! Nationalize the oil and prosecute the corporate heads and see how fast the gas prices drop.

June 14, 2008

The American public, the voting public, has absolutely no idea of the degree and extent of rampant corruption at the highest levels of the current Administration and government. No idea. Many, if not most, of our Congressmen take bribes; governmental agencies steal with both hands and their feet and it gets worse every day. Cheney, who still has huge stock options in Halliburton, has pushed their stock up to the heavens with all kinds of governmental waste-money contracts as a good example and the Pentagon has stolen more money that the Oligarchs did in post-Yeltsin Russia . Obama threatens to shut of the K Street co-conspirator “lobbyists” and they are getting more afraid day by day that he might be serious. McCain is safe for them but Obama is not. Would they do a Kennedy on Obama? The have already mentioned this but more or less as a private joke. We don’t need their blatant bribery of our representatives and we don’t need representatives who greedily grab whatever they can. The brazen and enormous thefts at the Pentagon are redolent of the Grant Administration but in that case, Grant himself was blameless. In this case, Bush and Cheney are right in there stuffing their pockets. Congress is glad to be rid of Bush and there is no chance he will be impeached but the effort has been made to do so. What is needed is to clean out the nests of thieves, give the FBI a mandate to do so without any political considerations and a free hand. Probably a good third of all of Congress could easily end up disgraced, convicted and potential cell partners for Abramof (who is right where he belongs) and if, as I said before, the public ever really gets to know the astonishing extent of the arrogant thievery, there will be a great housecleaning.

June 11, 2008

In this report, I would like to take some time to discuss certain, potentially deadly, medical problems of Senator John McCain,( R ), Arizona .

In some elevated circles here inside the Beltway, he is known as ‘Insane McCain.’ This is not meant as a real insult but a professional comment on his various rather obvious problems.

You should note that there are individuals in this country who wield great but anonymous power. They are what, in earlier times, would be called the King Makers. They are very pragmatic, very rich businessmen whom C. Wright Mills called the Power Elite. They have been happy with Bush and Cheney because these two were very, very friendly to businessmen. Tax breaks, stripping regulatory agencies of annoying investigators, huge governmental contracts for the fabricated war in Iraq .

Now, we have a new election. Obama is a mystery to them. He is very intelligent, very articulate and has run a magnificent campaign. Obama has become a great political force in America and the Power Elite have no real connection with him. There have been no previous briberies to hold over his head so controlling a relatively unknown person is not as clear-cut.

McCain, the presumptive Republican nominee is another matter. He is a man entirely in their pocket. McCain loves money and hides behind the false Jessica Lynch type fiction of a war hero. He was no such thing and has been strongly suspected of cooperating with Soviet CIA people who interrogated him while he was a POW in Hanoi during the Vietnam war.

His one real asset is his wife who has given him huge sums of money for his campaign but his faults are probably enough to keep him out of the Oval Office.

There exists, and has been circulated, a military medical examination report on McCain. I have a copy as do many others but I cannot have it put up on the internet because it is a personal medical record and as such, secure from exposure. However, it is not illegal to discuss the thrust of the report. There is a discussion of McCain’s earlier melanoma which appears to in remission but not gone. His mental state is also covered.

There are some interesting passages that speak of “a sharp drop in function….deficits in global cognitive ability, episodic memory…deficits in verbal ability….words do not come as quickly as they once did….and under executive function…his decision making has become more challenging….recent recall is diminished…recent events quickly forgotten (McCain will make a flat statement of policy on television and three days later, when asked about it by a media reporter, will flatly, and angrily, deny ever having said it) …..forgets common words while speaking or will substitute unusual words…has been forgetting recently learned information

There are few secrets these days and McCain’s problems are not unknown. The point is, will McCain have a chance of becoming President and, in effect, give America a third term for Bush’s policies?

This is all very interesting but I have something that might be of some interest to my readers and show several things I have been speaking of here. People suffering with pre-Alzheimer’s have motor problems. In McCain’s case, it has been observed that he has problems with learned habits. McCain is left-handed but was taught to shake hands with his right hand. Now, we see him approaching people and then when it comes time to shake a hand, he hesitates, his face twitches and his head jerks to one side and you can see him try to put out his left hand. Usually, an aide will whisper to him and he will stop, make a foolish grin and put out his right hand.

I am supplying a picture of John McCain that has a most interesting background. It shows him in West Virginia in May of 2008. Note the agitated and strained expression on his face…and the extended left hand.

What is really of interest. and reflects the concern of certain powerful people, is the identity of the photographer, a man assigned to cover McCain by the Associated Press.

His name is Jeff Chiu. It might be of some interest to note that Jeff Chiu, from San Francisco , is a well-educated man. In addition to his photographic skills, ( his reputation is as a well-known sports photographer) Mr. Chiu also has a degree in psychology from the University of California , a profession which is far more profitable than photography.

That candidate McCain is under close and on-going professional clinical observation is without question and who can blame the King Makers for wanting to make absolutely certain they are not backing the wrong horse. They now have a choice between a highly successful populist whose persona is a mystery or a man whose physical and mental problems could cause them terrible future problems.

Reagan was suffering from Alzehimer’s in the last years of his presidency but Reagan was very popular and relatively harmless. McCain, on the other hand, is known to have a violent temper and has recently insisted that Iran must be dealt with; that the useless Iraqi war must be continued and that the Bush tax programs need to be kept in place.

That is on the positive side for the Power Elite, but on the negative side, it is obvious, very obvious, that McCain has serious physical and mental problems that would in all probability make a McCain presidency far, far worse than the last eight years of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney.

We seem to be involved with more bubbles than a burlesque house,. There was the so-called “dot-com” bubble of the 90’s that was the result of the manipulations of a number of American stock brokers who deliberately inflated the stock prices of electronics companies that had no real assets. Then we had the equally phony and rigged “housing” bubble which, we now can see, was the result of criminal connivance between small mortgage companies and huge international banking houses. The dot-com swindle injured very few personally but the housing collapse has injured, directly or indirectly, millions. No one cares about this and the national economic manipulators have now moved into the oil, water and food markets with a wild rush.

Of course, the next bubble which consists of creeps like the hedge funds managers (pure Ponzi-schemes from the ground up) bankers and investors rushing to get their hands on what they, and many others, see as the greatest bubble of them all, the control of food, water and fuel, both domestically and overseas.

We know that increasingly, the prices of these elements have been steadily and sharply rising throughout the world and this has caused, and is causing, terrible social and economic havoc in poorer countries such as Nicaragua and Guatemala in Central America, and Haiti in the Caribbean and in India and neighboring Balgladesh. And in Africa, there is near-disaster in both Ethiopia and Somalia with severe water and food shortages. African countries such as Liberia , Egypt, the Sudan, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Kenya and Eritrea . There have been food riots in Haiti and Egypt with threats of civil insurrections in India and throughout Southeast Asia. , to include the Philippines .

The upward-spiraling price of crude oil is not the result of a shortage of oil. It is estimated that the cost of a barrel of oil in the Middle East does not exceed 15 dollars. The costs of a barrel of oil extracted from the tar sands of Alberta , Canada , is of the order of $30

The price of crude oil is currently in excess of $130+ a barrel. This market price is largely the result of the speculative onslaught, completely controlled by the Anglo-American oil giants, including British Petroleum (BP), ExxonMobil, Chevron-Texaco, and Royal Dutch Shell

All of this horrifying and financially devastating escalation is, without question, a process of deliberate and simultaneous market manipulation by the major Wall Street banks and financial houses, in close cooperation and conjunction with the oil and natural gas dealers

The increasing cost of gasoline pump prices is leading to the collapse of local level economies, increased industrial concentration and a massive centralization of economic power in the hands of a small number of global corporations. In turn, the rigged surges in gasoline has a devastating effect on urban transit system, schools and hospitals, is crippling the American trucking industry, intercontinental shipping, airline transportation, tourism, recreation and most public services.

According to William Engdahl;

"... At least 60% of the 128 per barrel price of crude oil comes from unregulated futures speculation by hedge funds, banks and financial groups using the London ICE Futures and New York NYMEX futures exchanges and uncontrolled inter-bank or Over-The-Counter trading to avoid scrutiny. US margin rules of the government's Commodity Futures Trading Commission allow speculators to buy a crude oil futures contract on the Nymex, by having to pay only 6% of the value of the contract. At today's price of $128 per barrel, that means a futures trader only has to put up about $8 for every barrel. He borrows the other $120. This extreme 'leverage' of 16 to 1 helps drive prices to wildly unrealistic levels and offset bank losses in sub-prime and other disasters at the expense of the overall populationthe price of grain staples has increased by 88% since March 2007. The price of wheat has increased by 181% over a three year period. The price of rice has increased by 50% over the last three months….”

In addition, there is a large and growing movement in the United States to pull away from off-shoring American industry and services.

Although I tend to view allegations of conspiracies with great caution, I have been reading through reams of official reports, market evaluations and intelligence data for my position. I go through this material on a daily, and sometimes more, basis, make notes with references and pass the reports up the line to my superiors. I see a good deal of material which is either too sensitive or too complex for the media.

After ten years of this, I can state with great sincerity that there are indeed business and governmental plots and schemes. We invaded Iraq because Israel wanted us to both establish bases there to assist them in the event of Arab attacks on them and to punish Saddam for daring to lob rockets at them during the first Gulf War. So far, at a bare minimum, over four thousand Americans have died to make Israel more secure. In my opinion, that’s exactly four thousand too many. It is interesting to note that almost all of the hedge fund and private equity people are Jewish and many of them bank in Israel where their money is safer than in Switzerland and, if things get too hot here, they can always go and be absolutely secure from extradition. And then we have the very obvious, but never mentioned, pre-911 stock manipulations by Israeli speculators. At the time, this was well-reported in the reputable segments of the American media but was almost immediately silenced and all mention of it expunged from the media’s various on-line sites.

It can all still be found on the microfilm records of the media units involved but not ever on the internet.

Why is that? I ask the question rhetorically and you answer it in private.

And finally, our very own K street lobbyists are beginning to wonder if Obama will indeed block the huge sums of what is basically bribe money flowing from American business interests through the hands of the K Street lobbyists into the pockets of American legislative and government officials

The American public? That great cash cow? Keep milking it until it runs dry and then go and live in your nice vacation house you bought in Aruba with your stolen money.

Not only is our beloved President sliding off the muddy cliff into the cesspit of public oblivion, he is dragging the far-right Republicans and the pro-Israeli neocons with him. Added to this mixed bag of fruits and nuts, we also have the evangelical Christians who are loud, vicious and entirely crazy.

McCain, who has the acumen of a jar of pond scum, chased the lunatic Christian nut, John Hagee, around, panting after his endorsement. McCain must be living back in the Coolidge administration because the so-called Christian Right has been repudiated by most Americans and their endless rantings about abortion and gays are falling on very deaf ears.

Now, we learn that the pathetic Hagee is claiming the fictional anti-Christ is going to be both Jewish and gay! It has always been a curiosity to me, and others, that born-again freakos loathe gays so much. Given the Haggard revelations, I strongly suspect that the loudest gay-bashers secretly lust after other men and are filled with self-hatred.

These pin heads are in love with the Book of Revelations which most historians know was written a hundred years after the early Christian era by the inmate of a Roman lunatic colony on the island of Patmos . They love this nonsense because you can read into it anything you want…and they do, regularly. Hagee has also said that Hitler was a Jew, which he wasn’t, and that God made Hitler go after the Jews to force them to repopulate the Holy Land !

Most of the Jews who fled to Palestine in 1946-1948 are not even ethnic Jews but are descended from Caspian Sea Turkish tribes and have about as much historical right there as Canadian geese.

If it isn’t the idiot Hagee bellowing about evil gays, it’s professional Jews screaming about 800 passenger gas vans and twenty millions barbecued. This is what comes of promulgating Political Correctness. No one dares to speak out against this sort of imbecilic propaganda just as one cannot poke fun at Mongoloids, dwarves or urine colored people. Don’t forget the old law of physics: Every action has a reaction. I’m waiting, eagerly, for it.

June 1, 2008

My colleague here showed me an overview, official study concerning U.S. detainees. It is not generally knows to the public but the U.S government now has over 30,000 (31,082 as of May 19, 2008 ) people in secret custody, all over the world.

An official U.S. program of torture and ‘rendition’ has been going on since before 9/11 and has never stopped. A number, estimated to be approximately 3,500, have been killed during these interrogations or have died as the result of them.

At the present time, the government, acting under specific Presidential orders, has a virtual fleet of prison ships scattered all across the globe and masked by a curtain of strict secrecy.

The U.S. Army, the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S Department of State and the Central Intelligence Agency are all heavily involved in this program.

A total of 22 U.S. Navy ships ( including ten ships leased by the U.S. Navy) house prisoners who are kept chained up in the vessels very much like the conditions of the black slavers in the days when slavery was legal in the United States .

Officially, George Bush has said these practices have been stopped but they are still in full swing and the President is fully aware of them, even as I speak.

Specifically, after Bush claimed in 2006 that the rendition programs had been halted, acting under his specific orders, there were 376 new cases of rendition.

The ongoing torture is conducted, in the main, by serving CIA personnel. Since an incident in 2003 when a U.S. Navy doctor refused to give lethal injections to five prisoners kidnapped from Quatar by British special forces, now, all CIA interrogation teams are supplied with a doctor working as a special CIA employee, and under a false name. In fact, all CIA operators are routinely issued completely false American passports by the Department of State’s Passport division

It is now known that the FBI, which had originally been a party to these abductions and tortures, strongly objected to the methodology of the CIA and a number of agents flatly refused to participate any further in a deliberate program of what one FBI agent said was ‘the same as those practiced by Josef Stalin’s’ dread secret police. As a result of this revolt, the FBI are no longer involved in this program but agents with first hand knowledge of it have been warned not to discuss the subject with anyone.

The Soviet gulags were in the Siberian wasteland, far, far from prying eyes and Bush’s death gulags are floating prisons that can quickly be moved to other locations if their presence becomes known.

The depths of the ocean are excellent places to dispose of the weighted bodies of the unwanted dead. It wouldn’t do for a broken, mutilated body of a dead torture victim to float to the surface after being lethally-injected. Unpleasant questions might be asked by uninitiated foreign governments and the floating torture palaces would. find it imperative to get up steam, hoist their anchors and just move to another position without let or hindrance

Names of ships used for this program are known, the USS Bataan, USS Peleiu, USS Ashland and a whole fleet of Navy ACS units. Areas of detention include, but are not limited to, Somalia, the Persian Gulf, Diego Garcia, (where the British intelligence and counter intelligence now use American ships for their own kidnapped suspects) the Gulf of Aden and several areas off the south coast of Cuba, in the area of Guantánamo Bay.

The commanding officers, and their staffs, of these ships are a matter of public record which can be accessed by anyone with a computer.

The legal justification for this mass torture and murder program? The office of the U.S. Attorney General has ruled that anti-torture prohibitions (deliberate murder is not a subject here) only apply within the United States and are not operational outside its geographical boundaries.

The one really positive result of Scott McCellan’s exposé of Bush’s lying manipulations dragging us into a useless and very damaging war is to effectively block any attempt on the part of the Administration to fabricate similar reasons for a “preventive war” against Iran . Cheney certainly wants to do this and the Israelis are frantically pushing and shoving their co-religionists in the neocon movement to goad Bush into pulling their chestnuts out of the Middle East fire. With the administration moving towards its final days, the time slot for a new war is getting smaller and smaller and if the earlier, successful trickery has been exposed, another try won’t work. Bush is not going to leave the Oval Office without performing more mischief to annoy and antagonize the public whom he views, rightly, as having deserted him. An air strike on Tehran can be ordered by the president at any time but they are now weighing the positive and negative sides. The recent exposure of what practically everyone in the DC media recognizes was an outright lying fraud ought to keep the slavering warmongers in their cages until we have a new president. If it’s McCain, there will be war for certain. He’s a genuine nut case and rabid for more war, a draft and military enforcement of domestic law and order.

May 24, 2008

The son of a top CIA official has laid his hands on a thick file of transcribed conversations between a writer and a retired senior CIA man. I have read through them and find them to be very entertaining (if you like black humor) and very enlightening. What old men with fond memories will say to a good listener is absolutely amazing.

Now we can expect CIA officials, retired and active and a number of the Washington in-crowd to play the Joe Lieberman card and demand that these be removed from the internet. Joe, who is a congenital asshole, wanted some pro-Arab postings taken down because they offended him. Wait until McCain reads what this ex-CIA boss has to say about him! You will hear him in Georgetown with the windows shut.

The CIA are still torturing people but are being very careful about it. We now know that the FBI agents working with them, were horrified by their brutality and reported their illegal actions to their senior officials in Washington . None of the agents, to their credit, would dirty their hands with this perverted and sadistic behavior but I note that their seniors sat on this.

Having read over period reports on some of this, all of it highly classified, it is my feeling that some of these perverted shits should be arrested and put on trial so the rest of the world can see the genuine filth and evil that the worthless Bush has deliberately unleashed. We ought to try Bush and give him a fair trial before we find him guilty, but that will never happen.

There has been much speculation, fueled by obviously concocted “leaks” from Israeli official sources, that Bush is planning to attack Iran before the end of his term in January of 2009.

As I have said before, a unit attached to the DoD has been monitoring all the secret Israeli governmental communications between Tel Aviv and their Embassy in Washington since 2003.

Why are they doing this? Is Bush aware of this?

They are doing this because in a number of elevated military circles, Israel is viewed as treacherous and eager to involve the United States in a war against Iran solely to protect themselves from a possible attack by that country. And Bush is most certainly not aware of the military surveillance of Israel or he would order it stopped immediately and the perps punished.

While Bush is very, very sensitive, and highly responsive to, Israeli needs, he knows that an American attack on Iran would have to be via the Air Force and tactical nuclear in nature. A forewarned U.S. military leadership would certainly block this insanity and Bush knows it.

He does not want to end his disgraced presidency with a public rebuff from the JCS so his (and especially Cheney’s) wishes to show up Iran will have to find other outlets. Bush has a pathological detestation to being defied and anyone who gets in his way is fired at once.

On the other hand, a rebellion of sorts at the highest military levels would be a personal, and very humiliating, disaster that Bush wants desperately to avoid.

If not Bush, then the leadership of the Republicans know that there is sharply rising anti-Semitism in America, based entirely on the activities of the Neocons and some elements of the American media. They hope, frantically, that they will not suffer a crushing defeat at the hands of the American public at the November elections and are distancing themselves both from Bush and the rabidly pro-Israel factions of their own party.

Power means, among other things, money, and if there is a sweeping Democrat victory at the polls and the pliant carbon copy of Bush, Senator McCain, loses his last-chance for the presidency, all of them will be looking for jobs where they will have to work for a living, not working the public for its bounty.

Fully aware of this, Israel is frantically trying to shove the United States into a war against its enemies. Israel, according to military intercepts, does not want to be seen as the actual aggressor and does not want to spend any money on a war they might lose.

Besides, the logistical problems inherent in an Israeli attack are such as to preclude Tel Aviv from doing anything other than pushing and shoving their many allies in Washington to help them.

I have maintained that these intercepts ought to be published in full so that the American voters might know exactly what they have in store for them if McCain get into the White House. Given their incendiary nature, I doubt if any branch of the American media, with the possible exception of Keith Olbermann, would dare to make any of them public.

If they did get out, I, and others here, can easily see pogroms in America that would rival those of Imperial Russia or Nazi Germany.

I have used the Google information service for some time now for background information for my reports.

Of course I stopped using Wikipedia when I learned their ‘close connection’ with various governmental agencies and noted how they always seemed to present positive official views while trashing anyone who would dare to hold negative views towards the Fourth Reich on the Potomac.

So much for that abortion. It’s Google I am going to discuss.

With the dying of the print media, the hucksters are flocking to the internet to shove their overpriced, lead-painted Chinese imports down the public’s collective throat. Google seems to be a magnet for all the marketplace trash and now, when you click on the name, for example, of a Civil War general, (Confederate Braxton Bragg,) I got, in rapid succession, incest porn, young gay porn, an ad for a thrill-packed weekend in sleazy and drying out Las Vegas (‘and every Super Luxury Mini-Suite has inside plumbing or a nice balcony…’)and pictures of the general offered for sale by some other sleazy company.

It’s probably a joint scam with that fat ex-con ‘Small Dick’ Gordon who runs a Bible rip off and fake pet shelter (‘Baghdad Pups’) series of ripoffs on the internet.

Having had to get off the internet (some of the garbage won’t delete) and then get back on to get rid of the obnoxious trash, I later tried Google again to look up a Civil War ship.

Did I get the article I clicked on? No, I did not.

What I did get was another advert for tickets to a concert by a group called the Squashed Fetus, followed by a new site advertising over-priced and run-down beach front condos in Georgia .

Now, I don’t use Google anymore and strongly suggest that you keep your kids away from it. Some of the unwanted porn I got was hair raising. I haven’t seen anything like that since the last Bush cabinet meeting, especially the one with the stellar command performance by 'Wide Stance' Larry Craig..

The only thing spectacular now is the spectacular stupidity being exhibited by a White House enraged and frightened that the Republicans will be utterly crushed in November. This is evident in their lashing out at Obama, accusing him of encouraging terrorism which is, of course, sheer nonsense. It is the vicious and brutal Bush administration that has harassed Muslims wherever and whenever they find them, to torture them and in the end, wipe out whole neighborhoods in Iraq , including women and children. These deliberate acts, coupled with the rank favoritism and reeking corruption (which is not to believe in its magnitude) we see hints of on a daily basis, have made enemies that this country does not need. Long after the Bush people have fled the jurisdiction or hanged themselves in the front hall closet with a jump rope, the rage that the vicious Bush has fathered; deliberately, will certainly haunt the rest of us for years to come. It is very funny to watch McCain doing his Bush imitation and then watch the far more intelligent and civilized Obama slice and dice them in public. I predict that if Obama becomes the Democrat candidate and gets into a debate with McCain, the latter will blow what little cool he still has as Alzheimer’s devours him and start shouting at Obama or, even better, to rush at him and try to punch him out. Given his increasing mental disorientation, McCain would probably forget half the way to the podium what he was doing and just stand there and wet himself.

Considering that there are billions of credit cards in the hands of Americans, it is easy to see what an important financial empire exists. The interest on these cards, collected by credit card companies and banks, is larger than the national debt of Italy and is a pillar of the American banking industry.

Many, many very foolish card holders either never read the fine print in their credit card agreements or simply did not care. After all, they reasoned with some then-current justification, my house keeps going up and up in value and all I have to do is to refinance and pay down or off the card balances.

As we know, this bubble, so profitable to crooked banks and hedge fund operators, has collapsed, leaving an immense field of wreckage in its path. When card holders with huge balances realized they simply could not pay off some of them, they waffled for a while, sending in a few dollars here and there but eventually, tired of dunning phone calls, a huge and growing number of them just walked away from their debts.

The card companies, and their banking partners, were horrified and their immediate, and predictable, response has been to leap on those who still pay and squeeze the hell out of them with the same kind of crooked tricks that the mortgage companies try to inflict on bankrupting home owners. They always manage to jack up what the bankruptee files. $5,000 for “extra special legal fees,” or “title searches” for an additional $6,000 and so on.

Not content screwing first time and inexperienced buyers with phony mortgages they know will fail when the rates automatically rise to 17%, these jackals and eaters of rotting roadkill have to get the last dime from really hurting victims.

Now, the card sharks are going to push the envelope and squeeze their own particular brand of predictable sucker. And how astonished they will be at the mass defections now on the horizon and how they will howl to Congressmen they have bribed to pass a law forbidding people to walk away from any credit card debt under penalty of spending weekends in the gas chamber.

This whole rotten nest of mangy rodents needs to be cleaned out with a flamethrower and a bulldozer. The outraged public is beginning to get very angry and if, as they are talking about inside the Beltway offices, food gets rationed, (rice, corn and wheat for certain) the guillotines will go up in public squares all across America and when they are done, we might have a government that will actually work for their constituents instead of sodomizing them.

I have been listening to various friends and children of friends about the growing home repossession crisis. It seems that many young, first time home buyers, were deliberately mislead by crooked mortgage brokers into buying their new home with very little down and small monthly payments. Most of these buyers were really unaware of the fact that after a period of time had elapsed, the mortgage holder could, and would, triple the monthly payments.

The banks who bought these crooked mortgages, crooked in that many of the buyers were known to the brokers as being unable to meet higher payments, quickly “bundled” them and sold them off at a good profit.

Now, we have some interesting facts. Most of the people being told to pay up or vacate do not know that it is virtually impossible to locate the actual mortgage holder and the law requires that said mortgage holder alone can repossess a home with delinquent payments.

Many judges ignore this but more than a few are requiring the actual holder of the mortgage to appear. This is impossible to do in most cases so young couples and poorer people should have their lawyers, assuming they can afford them, look into this.

Also, many infuriated home owners, upon being tossed out on the street, have taken to doing damage to their homes. I am going to discuss this aspect of the crisis here. I will, as an exercise in black humor, explain methods for teaching the banks a badly needed lesson.

Smashing up the house is stupid and futile. People who take tools and smash windows and rip out drywall could be prosecuted by the mortgage holder.

Better to consider some of these small advices instead.

Perhaps one could get a screwdriver, six or seven bottles of crazy glue, several bottles of Metamucil, a six pound hammer, a quantity of fresh or frozen crab meat and several dozens of large, cooked shrimp or prawns. That’s all you need to leave nothing behind. Oh yes, you can also get a large sack of rocksalt, available in any supermarket for use in water softeners, and fifty pounds of plaster of Paris. And a brace and bit too. That’s all you need. First, remove all the light switch and electric outlet plates in every room. Put some crab meat or a large prawn or two into the cavity and put the plates back on. When the shellfish goes off, the stench would kill a maggot. The meat will not only rot and give an unholy odor, it will eventually liquefy and vanish.

Having done that, pour a gallon of hot Ritz dye into the middle of the largest wall to wall carpet in the house. A puddle that looks like an accident. The carpet is ruined and it all has to be ripped out.

If there are wood floors or other horizontal wood surfaces, pour some acetone onto them and the finish is ruined and has to be redone. If the kitchen or entrance hall has ceramic tile, take a hammer and crack one or two of the tiles. If you have a tile kitchen sink cover, knock out one or two tiles or knock off one of the edge pieces.

You can pour the Metamucil down the drains in the kitchen. It will plug up the pipes for yards. You can also mix the big bag of plaster of Paris and pour it into all the toilets and down the bathtub and shower drains. After the toilets are firmly plugged, take nice dump on top of it. Then, when a disgusted bank representative comes to visit, and overcomes the vomit-inducing stench of rotting shellfish, they will lift the toilet lid, make a face and pull the handle. This will result in a flood of water and turds onto the floor.

You can take the brace and bit, climb up on a chair and drill a hole in the top of your hollow core room doors and drop shrimp or crab down into the cavity. The stench will be matched by the staining of the wood at the bottom, stains that will smell for decades.

Fishing leader let down into the garbage disposal will ruin it and if you keep the power on, you will burn out the bearings. If you can’t get the stove out, piss into a large, ovenproof bowl, turn on the heat and put the bowl inside the oven.

Also, if you plug up the shower or bathtub drains, you can always turn on the taps, very gently, before you leave. If this is on an upper floor, the water will eventually spill over, spread out all over the floor, ruining the carpets and the floors before it leaks through and causes the plasterboard ceiling below to cave in.

If you want to be really bad, rip the electric cord off of an old lamp and put alligator clamps on each wire. Then, remove the cable box back or the telephone line cover and hook the clamps to each terminal and plug it into the household current. Five minutes of this and all the phone and cable lines are permanently fried. Put the cover back on again so as not to alert the bank people.

When you have done all of the above, take the crazy glue in hand and seal up every door in the house. Close the door first. Then note that the doorknob has a part that is fixed to the door itself and another part, the knob, that turns. Pour crazy glue over this junction. It will quickly settle in, effectively sealing the door.

You can also take out all the window blinds and curtains. If they won’t fit in your new apartment, put them into a dumpster. And be sure to leave the front door lock untouched.

Outside, locate the gas meter and pour a large circle of the salt around it with a trail leading in a straight line to the street. Either turn on the sprinklers for a while, allowing the salt to penetrate into the ground and kill the grass, or wait for a rain to hopefully arrive before the bank. In either case, wait for about a week, then call the gas company and complain of a leak. When the service people come out, they will see the dead grass and just know that there must be a leak. What will they do? If it looks like the line into the house is somehow leaking, they will get a backhoe and make the yard look like the battle of the Marne was fought there.

And you can dump the rest of the salt into the flower gardens and scatter the bits of it all over the lawn.

All of this may take some time and cost a few dollars, but believe me, the results are worth it. Vomiting bank visitors and huge bills for refinishing the floors, replacing the carpets, and if you use crazy glue on the sliding windows, much trouble there.

All it all, not a sound to annoy the neighbors and you leave little bits of joy behind. Trust me, children, the bank will have to spend many dollars to put the place back in service for the market and when the new owners try to install a telephone or put in cable, there will be even more delightful surprises.

My motto? Don’t get mad, get even.

I had a very interesting conversation on Sunday with a friend of my wife’s. It was concerned with the huge and growing number of Americans who are falling deeper and deeper into debt and struggling to pay such vital bills as food and rent.

Today the New York Times ran a front page article on the outsourcing of telephone debt collections to India . Much of what my wife’s friend was borne out by this article but because the subject is of great, and growing, interest, I am putting all of this together for the interest of the public.

With millions of Americans falling behind on debt payments, the larger debt-collecting companies are outsourcing their collection methods to India . There, the trained operators call the American debtor on the phone. They remind them that they will probably be getting tax rebates and that perhaps they could pay “just a little” on their back bill. Even a few dollars would show their really good intentions.

Do not trust this approach because it is a snare and a delusion. In most cases, the debts involved have passed the statute of limitations and not only is it impossible to sue for the unpaid balances but the debt itself has vanished from the credit report system. By sending in even a dollar on the back balance, the debt is automatically renewed again and further harassments, phone calls, registered letters and debt-collection suits can, and will, follow.

The best advice here is not to send in a penny.

Here are some other valuable suggestions to save your capital and avoid harassment.

As almost all bill collecting now is done either by phone call or by mail, why not change your phone number? First, call your carrier and stop service, being very sure to pay the back bill, Then, after suffering a short period when you have no phone, start up again with a new carrier but under a different name. Why? Because the phone companies will supply to bill collectors, lists of their customers for a fee. So if you shut down the Bill Jones number and just start up under the same name but with a different carrier, be certain the bill collectors will very soon have the new number.

And when you get the new account (if they want other numbers you have recently used, tell the person at the new service that you have been out of the country, serving with the Armed Forces) To be even safer, you might want to have an unpublished number. If you have a new number under a new name and an unlisted service, you might also wish to add a caller ID to your service.

That, in and of itself, will shut off bothersome calls but if you really want to clean up your act, find a local mailbox service and rent a box. Give them an old address. That way, all your current bills, letters and magazines will go to that address and be reported to various agencies of interest. Then, with the new address, send in to the USPS a form indicating a change of address. Do not give them the drop address but another, more creative, one. One good new address is: 350 5th Ave. , New York , NY 10018 . This is the huge Empire State Building in New York with thousands of people working there.

The post office does not know which office number or which floor is involved so eventually the mail is returned. Or you could give the address of a local hotel or a huge office complex. In any case, you are giving a legitimate address and it will take weeks for the letter or bill to be returned to the sender as undeliverable.

Speaking of returned mail, go to a local firm that makes up rubber stamps and have one done that says ‘DECEASED’ on it. Then, if and when a new bill comes in to the drop address, you can stamp this in red ink on the surface and take it to any USPS station and drop it into a mail slot.

As almost all bill collecting is done by phone these days, these simple steps should materially ensure your continued privacy. This is a subject of increasing interest and we will have further informative and helpful suggestions at a later date.
