Hank Paulson - Thursday, September 25th, 2008 7:23 AM PDT
Dear American:

I need to ask you to support an urgent secret business relationship with a transfer of funds of great magnitude.

I am Ministry of the Treasury of the Republic of America. My country has had crisis that has caused the need for large transfer of funds of 800 billion dollars US. If you would assist me in this transfer, it would be most profitable to you.

I am working with Mr. Phil Gram, lobbyist for UBS, who will be my replacement as Ministry of the Treasury in January. As a Senator, you may know him as the leader of the American banking deregulation movement in the 1990s. This transactin is 100% safe.

This is a matter of great urgency. We need a blank check. We need the funds as quickly as possible. We cannot directly transfer these funds in the names of our close friends because we are constantly under surveillance. My family lawyer advised me that I should look for a reliable and trustworthy person who will act as a next of kin so the funds can be transferred.

Please reply with all of your bank account, IRA and college fund account numbers and those of your children and grandchildren to wallstreetbailout@treasury.gov so that we may transfer your commission for this transaction. After I receive that information, I will respond with detailed information about safeguards that will be used to protect the funds.

Yours Faithfully,
Minister of Treasury Paulson

In light of current events, it's time to ask ourselves this:

WHY do we allow the US economy to be used as a casino for the elite?

Does Wall St. serve a useful purpose at all? Or is it a parasitical entity that has sucked on our enterprise long enough? Maybe it's time to get rid of it.

IN MY OPINION | LEONARD PITTS JR.
Poor whites are being conned
Posted on Mon, May. 26, 2008

I keep thinking I should be mad at West Virginia.

Not because Barack Obama was recently beaten like a red-headed stepchild -- to use my father's expression -- in that state's primary. No, I'm thinking I should be upset about why he was beaten. According to exit polls, two out of every 10 voters said race was a major factor in how they cast their ballots.

Jon Stewart of The Daily Show ran a clip of a white woman who explained her refusal to vote for Obama thusly: ''I guess because he is another race. I'm sort of scared of the other race 'cause we have so much conflict with 'em.'' She spoke in the vaguely shamefaced, what're-you-gonna-do? voice of someone who knows she should stick to her diet or stop smoking, but just can't help herself.

You'd think this would have me in a state of high dudgeon, fingers blazing the keyboard in righteous rebuke of attitudes so atavistic and wrong. But I can't. Oh, it's disappointing to see bigotry in Appalachia so vividly displayed. Yet I find it doesn't make me angry.

It just makes me sad.

I feel sorry for them. If that sounds patronizing, I apologize. That's not how it's meant.

It's just that, if the headline here is that Obama was rejected by whites on the basis of race, I submit that's not the whole truth. Pollsters say he was actually rejected on the basis of race by whites who lack college degrees and whose household income is less than $50,000 a year. In other words, he was rejected by the poor and the less educated.

Which is a description that fits many in Appalachia -- and also a vast swath of African America. So for me, the story here isn't simply the old, familiar tale of the nation's stark racial divide, but also another tale, just as old, less often remarked, of how the white poor and the black poor have long been kept at one another's throats as a means of keeping them from looking too closely or clearly at the ways both are maniuplated by the forces of money and power.

And here, let me tell you what I am not saying. I'm not saying all bigots are poor or all the poor are bigots. I'm not saying everyone in Appalachia is poor, or less educated, or atavistic about race.

But I am saying this: The white poor have been victims of a con job going back at least as far as the Civil War, when poor white men were used as cannon fodder for the right of rich white men -- I repeat: rich white men -- to keep slaves. They were told they fought for state's rights.

From then till now, the white poor have often been the front line of white supremacy. You think people with college degrees and six-figure salaries are out there marching around under pointy white hoods, burning crosses? Hardly.

My point is that race has often been used as a means of distracting and diverting the white poor. They had little in life, nor any realistic expectation of having more.

But the one thing they did have -- or so the con went -- was whiteness itself. Which meant they had someone to be better than. Someone to look down upon.

This, even though they did menial work under menial conditions, earned menial pay, sent their kids to menial schools, were subject to menial indignities, made do with menial health care and lived menial lives hemmed in by want, ignorance and hunger.

Exactly like those they had been taught they were better than. Exactly like those they had been taught to look down upon.

There are those in positions of political power who can and should be held to answer for the meanness and narrowness of poor people's lives. But they can't and won't so long as those who should be standing together to demand those answers are kept busy fighting one another over superficialities of color and culture.

Those are differences that too often obscure commonalities -- of need, of hope and of cause. Over the years, many of us have figured that out.

In West Virginia, at least, two in 10 of us have not.

Enough with the disaster news!

"I need Nancy Pelosi or someone in authority who can speak for our governments whose jobs are to make sure we follow the constitution and remain a leader among nations when it comes to humanitarian issues.. that is why we let them spend our money abroad, right?" says sleepy America, nudged up and knocked open.

"Did you know, BlissFace, your government defense spending money has been for killing, or maiming, or diseasing, or terrorizing, or enslaving or dividing people instead of democratizing them?

"That they have been doing these crimes since the 40's? Americans are so uneducated in the world now. So much information has been stripped from our schools and libraries that the kids think the elders are warped... and although their info isn't, their brains may be by now, with all the collateral damage of jobs being outsourced, kids being drugged and made mean and suicidal, food creating disease, disease causing death, war mongering, church gun running, slave trading, all by just a few rich and slimy 17th century modern primitives who have taken over.

"Meanwhile, those who are really invested in life are tossed or toasted. And those with some stamina and courage, with integrity intact, working hard to make it work at some level, too busy to notice the destruction.

"I need some real officials, those elected to the three branches of government, some Congressmen, some Senators, some Judges, some Prosecutors and States Attorneys to speak out the truth the state of things.

Does anybody know what the situation is?

We need to know our federal agencies are the macro for the micros out here at the local level. I need the federal, state, and local governments to confirm in all of our local news papers that it is a lie that Bush, Harper, and Calderon do have the authority to reinvent the three countries they are now president of as if our constitutions don't matter and their money and thuggery does.

"Please confirm that there are no plans for creating a North American Union made up of the USA, Canada and Mexico to police each others civilian populations in order to bypass the "posse comitatis" rules and be able to police us in times of civil unrest.

"This is what this scum media has been terrorizing us with, and we need to know if it is true or false. And if true, how did that happen, and now that we know about it, what are we doing to invalidate it?

"Who is in control? Have we lost control to the same mercenaries that have captured many lands before in our name, and now it is our turn?

"Ah..... I don't like this. I need confirmation this isn't so.

"If it is so, what about all this idealistic swoon for Obama and all we really stand for, like it is invalid, but what Bush and CO. says is not?

Is the riot Rush Limbaugh is looking for to cause civil unrest, assert martial law, so Bush cancels elections, and people go ballistic, to cause the end of america as we know it? Bumfucks!!

"What the fuck? Dudes. You better get our regulations the fuck back on deck and NOW>

"NANCY>>> WAKE UP>>>> NANCY DREW ME A PICTURE>>>> THIS WASN"T EXPLAINED< SO IT PROBABLY IS BULLSHIT!

YOUR GULLIBILITY IS RANCID, IT NEEDS REPAIR>>>>

"Now get that constitution picked up off the floor and hire Kucinich and Obama to straighten things out with the pledge of our real military, not the mercenary crowds (732 bases with these murderers we pay for? on 137 different countries or continents?) These are illegal and they will face charges if we are not foolish and stupid and forget who we are. We have already spent the bloodshed on this. Why do we have to go through that again, when the constitution requires regulations that forbid this conduct?"

ABC, NBC and Disney do not own the public airwaves

ABC, NBC and Disney do not own the public airwaves, nor the political elections of the United States of America. In a Democracy the press is obligated to broadcast and print what is happening, not pass judgement and make decisions for the people. We are free to do that ourselves, or not at all.

Also, we have a principle of fair competition, and to attempt to control lthe outcome of an election is nothing short of fascism. The American people must not stand for this kind of fraud ever. Ever since the media has been deregulated (dismantled along with many other regulations that protect the public interest) there has been nothing but mediocrity and violence peppering the main media outlets, and it is psychotic, if not criminal.

We can not allow our only source of information to be controlled by those who have an agenda attached to an outcome and use the public airways to control the choices of the people. Candidates spend a lot of money on their campaigns and they deserve to be respected. Voters spend a lot of money on funding their candidates and all need to trust that the media is the channel, not the trim tab.

Furthermore, we practice fair competition, that is the rule of the law in the land and especially elections so ABC and NBC are breaking the law. If our congress and elected officials do not stop this assault on our freedom of speech for all candidates then we must replace them and find people who will respect our constitution and the rule of law in this country.

davis - Tuesday, January 8th, 2008 9:49 AM PST
Please everyone. Even if you are not for Kucinich, we must realize that this moment is an opportune time to take the corporate media to task for fascist programming.

ABC has no right to exclude a viable candidate with a following, and people want to hear what he has to say in the Debates.

ABC is owned by Disney Corporation and this is evidence that they think they OWN the airways, rather than use the privilege of a publicly owned franchise to serve the public interest.

The airways are public, not private in a democracy. They have no right to keep presidential candidate information out of our view, especially information that tells the truth about the way government is NOT working.

It is also disrespectful to a United States Congressman to behave this way. To see that a private industry can have that much power must wake everyone up to how corrupt and intentional the elite are about continuing their agenda of dismantling not only America but the world. And WHY? Are they sick? Are they power addicted? What is their point?

I have a right to see my selected candidate compete with the other candidates as much as anyone else does. I encourage everyone to boycott not only DISNEY CORP, but every candidate that allowed this to happen to their fellow candidate who do not carry the spirit of freedom of speech, nor have the courage to stand up to Dennis Kucinich's declarations. They prove to be cowardly, and darlings of the media. They prove to not have the spirit of justice. They prove not to be awake to the laws of the land if they can stand by and allow this to happen.

I for one, have cast my paper ballot in San Francisco yesterday for Kucinich. I encourage you to do two things.

One: Go to the website in the post beneath this one for Dennis, and take THE TEST. The test is a simple test of issues, and how you rate them. You will see how you stand on candidates and who most closely fits you view. They are no tricks.

Give yourself an experience of knowing your stand and voting with authenticity. You may not have the same values as I, but this test will wake you up to the issues at hand and let you know how you feel, rather than letting the "shiny objects" on your tube program you in a direction that is out to use you as fodder for their use.

Good luck in your choices, America. I hope you have the courage to choose well.

Dennis Kucinich - Dennis4President.com

Welcome to the United States of Disney

Dear Fellow Kucinich Supporters,

On Saturday night we officially became the United States of Disney. While Republican candidates railed about the threat of Islam-fascists, Americans were oblivious that in fact, the greatest treat to our freedom was transpiring right before them - corporate-controlled media, a key component of fascism, used their power to exclude the one candidate from the debates who dares to stand up to them. To "cover" their coup, they ran a silly fluff piece prior to the debate about people who are running for president with no organization behind them and questioned why they would do such a thing other than to massage their own egos.

But the candidate Disney/ABC arbitrarily excluded from the debate is a viable candidate who has hundreds of thousands of supporters and a solid organization in every state. Dennis Kucinich has been campaigning non-stop for over a year with his wife, Elizabeth. He's on the ballot in almost every state. This isn't some vanity campaign that the Corporate-controlled media has deliberately tried to make disappear - this is the one candidate who is running for all the right reasons - because he wants to save our country from the takeover of special interests.

While John Edwards, during the debate, eloquently and passionately decried the stranglehold special interests have on our nation, he never once mentioned that Disney/ABC had excluded one of his fellow candidates from the debate. How disingenuous! He also failed to mention the fortune he has invested in a hedge fund that makes him as vested in these special interests as anyone.

I watched the entire debate on Saturday night, and have to admit that compared to the Republicans, any of the Democratic candidates sounded like a good bet. But here's the catch - while they debated who was the more likely to bring about change and who had more experience actually initiating change, not one of them has ever proved they have the courage to stand up to the status-quo that will do whatever it takes to prevent change. If they had, ABC would have kept them off that stage too. So while just about everything spoken by the four Democratic candidates sounded good, I couldn't help thinking that this was just another Disney performance. Put any of them in the White House and you'll get the same disappointment we're experiencing with the Democratic Congress we elected in '06. We worked our tails off to get them elected and they conveniently forgot why we did it.

Here are some words you didn't hear uttered during the debate - words that Dennis Kucinich would have said if he had been given his place at the table. Words the American people deserve to hear:

Impeach - The majority of Americans want to see Bush and Cheney held accountable for the lies and corruption that have driven our country to the brink of moral, financial and military bankruptcy. Dennis Kucinich introduced a bill to impeach Dick Cheney last November. The Democratic leadership moved to table it. It was only because REPUBLICANS voted against tabling it that the bill didn't die immediately on the floor and instead now languishes in the Judicial Committee.

Not for Profit Health Care - Don't let them fool you - the insurance companies are the problem because they only make a killing when they deny patients health care. Keep them in the mix and you will never have healthcare for all.

End NAFTA and get out of the TWO - Although Edwards briefly alluded to the problems our trade agreements have caused to working-class Americans, no Democratic candidate is ever going to criticize a trade policy that was put through by President Bill Clinton - even if it is the cause of not only job loss, but the surge in illegal immigration from Mexico. No candidate, that is, except the one we can count on to always speak the truth - Dennis Kucinich.

The corporate-controlled, censored media has carefully orchestrated the obliteration of Dennis Kucinich. This is the third debate he's been kept from. They are also distorting his politically strategic move in the Iowa caucuses to suggest supporters cast their second vote for Osama, as a indication that Dennis has quit the race and is throwing his support behind Osama. Nothing could be further from the truth! In fact, Bill Richardson did the exact same thing as Kucinich and he still got to be in the debate last night!

Is it too late? Has corporate-controlled media become so powerful that they can decide who our candidates are, and delude us into thinking we are actually electing our leaders? There's one way to find out. Let's make this a real democracy where people talk to people. Let's spend the next weeks before our state primary contacting voters and telling them about the one candidate who hasn't just been talking about change; his entire political career has been the embodiment of change.

What you do over the next few weeks might mean the difference between waking up this time next year in a Disneyland where the majority of Americans will be grateful for the most menial jobs, while the wealthy few get a free ride, or taking our country back from the military/industrial/insurance/media fascists. Please go to www.California4Kucinich.com now and sign up to be on a DK Team. We are currently organizing to reach out to voters by phone and in person and your local DK Team Leader will contact you to see the best way you can get involved.

In peace & hope,
Jeeni

ENTER 2008: THE SYSTEM BREAKS
by Jim Willie CB
Editor, Hat Trick Letter
January 3, 2008

AddThis Social Bookmarking Widget

EDITOR NOTE: My Spanish needs work, since ´Tonterias´ was misspelled in the title, which prompted a couple corrections from Latino readers. Disculpame! Last week´s attempt to smash the Wall Street corrupt trumpets of information earned a special kudo from a veteran NYSE floor trader. Tom said, "What a crock we hear every damn day? I have been on Wall Street 28 years. This is just unreal. What we hath wrought?!?"

The year 2008 will be the year that THINGS JUST PLAIN BREAK. It will be a truly deadly year, unavoidably lethal to the USEconomy and especially to the US banking sector. Nothing has been repaired. Some tangible solutions will be offered in the next section, all legitimate in a real world. However, we do NOT live in a real world, but rather in a Fairy Tale world of US Hegemony and Wall Street with a choke hold around the US entire system. Managed inflation is the policy never to be reversed, until total breakdown occurs. Treason is rampant, called simply Power Games. All attempts so far are to shore up the existing system, to enable Wall Street to sell as much of their damaged asset backed bonds to suckers, and to avoid international lawsuits against Wall Street firms. In 2008, an alarming sequence is assured of enormous damage that puts the entire US economic and financial system in a perilous situation. The powers survived the end of 2007, with heavy usage of band aids, rubber bands, and paper clips, but reality continues to itemize a relentless sequence of unfixable, tragic, intractable problems. The pressure points are big banks suffering from insolvency, prime mortgage bonds destined for massive losses, consumers without kitties to rob to keep spending, a worsening housing market from chronic inventory bloat, and deepening problems in the lending industry frozen from insolvency and distrust. Pitch in a global resentment of US fraud and heavy handed tactics, especially from the last couple decades.

What a prospect! Almost all of Wall Street firms are bankrupt, but still in control of the financial media. Citigroup is dead in the water, inevitably to enter restructuring without admission of bankruptcy and surely with no formal filing of such. Heck, even Goldman Sachs might be bankrupt, if they ever produced an honest balance sheet. The goal of Wall Street henchmen, who are clearly guilty of the grandest larceny even seen since Rubin opened the door to gold leasing at the USTreasury, is for the (mostly) men in three-piece suits to fleece their elite firms for personal gain as much as possible before their broadly suspected insolvency is recognized as clear bankruptcy. They choked on their own toxic mortgage fecal IN-securities, with the leverage in the derivatives backfiring on them. The hidden factor is new Basel rules on accounting, which in my view seems like a bankruptcy judge ordering Discovery Phase of bank assets during a Bankruptcy Proceeding. True to form, the Wall Street firms continue to operate in defiance, as they created a lunatic new Tier-3 balance sheet item. The greatest feat to date is the Wall Street urged Congressional adoption of the subprime mortgage freeze, dubbed ´The Teaser Freezer´ in clever tones. A voice tells me that Basel might push for prosecution of Wall Street bankster criminals.

My 2008 forecasts will be saved for the Hat Trick Letter, but a preview overview can be listed. First, let us all revel at the Severe Comedy that has become US Presidential Politics. Good looks, meaningless promises, catchy campaign slogans, bulging campaign coffers, these all accompany a truly futile procession of charlatans offering hope. Harken back to November 2006, when a new Congress was elected. They, under new leadership have done not a blessed thing promised to turn the country away from its disastrous course, regarding the war, the economy, taxation, budget allocation, in a follow through mandated by voters. Expect nothing at all in change from any viable presidential candidate, who all seem like midgets. If one revolutionary candidate in particular is elevated by voters, his life will likely meet an early demise, by accident, of course. The hidden secret which just cannot seem to find its way above ground is that Neocons are not Republicans, not Democrats. The current Bush is a known Neocon, a bizarre label to be sure. In my view Clinton was a Neocon also, certainly cut from a different cloth than most traditional Democrats. His central policy was to create the foundation for the Fascist Business Model, wherein the finance sector merged with the state. Two candidates, one on each side, represent uninterrupted Neocon rule and the inexorable march to a military state, the former 911 Mayor and the former First Lady. But mine is not a political pen. Somehow, the name NeoFascist does not sound as appealing to American voters as the mysterious Neocon. Call a spade a spade! Numerous legal executive decrees confirm the label clarification and trend. The pathetic fact of life is that in my travels and conversations with countless American adults, my experiment has been grossly revealing. After almost 40 direct questions on US soil, directly asking "What is Fascism?" to Americans, not one single correct answer. After all, a nation gets the government it deserves. The United States is on a sad but unstoppable march to Third World status, complete with totalitarian rule. Nothing can block the path. One hundred years ago, H.L.Mencken called the USGovt the best government that money can buy, and deemed the American landscape attractive like any circus. Nothing has changed, only the depth and severity.
THE SYSTEM FAILS, BREAKS, FREEZES

The year 2008 will start with a resumption in the disorder breakdown buzz, a resumption in the gold climb, and new chapters in big bank bankruptcy throes, and eventually a nearly complete loss of respect and integrity in the US Federal Reserve. The word ´Bankruptcy´ will not be used until a big bank actually files for bankruptcy. The ring of the word Bankruptcy is more accurate, since it implies Hemorrhage, another great word. The collateral damage will include most bond insurers going bust, but holding firm to ´AAA´ ratings in pure corrupt manner. The collateral damage will include most homebuilders going bust. However, the centerpiece of 2008 woes will be the PRIME MORTGAGE BUST, felt much like the stage falling through the floor in the Victorian Theater. The decline in housing prices will continue to push prices down another 5% to 10% in the new year, killing off prime mortgage portfolios and their bonds. The bust will take down the entire US banking system, which is now reeling and tipsy, like a punchdrunk boxer after enduring ten rounds of a pure beating, bloodied, wobbly, dizzy, blurred in vision. The mortgage debacle will extend to the commercial property arena, the degree of which will be uncertain.

The people have been misled for almost a full year on the mislabeled mortgage debacle as a subprime phenomenon. That is the exposed tip of the iceberg, since it is total mortgage debacle problem. In 2008, the avalanche of failed mortgages of innovative adjustable variety will occur, with California providing the epicenter of failure and most publicized wreckage. US lending institutions once took pride in their absurd innovation in mortgage products, like fully borrowed down payments, like paying less interest than accumulates, like the borrower having no income or job. Next they will be embarrassed at the systemic stupidity and universal ridicule. In the 1970 decade, we suffered STAGFLATION in an ugly era. In 2008, we will suffer a much more powerful bout of stagflation, with continued USEconomic recession (in third year for those based in reality), rising price inflation (already running over 10%) sure to attack even the doctored Consumer Price Inflation. In fact, 2008 might see progress with the CPI adopting the house price component and putting off the owner equivalent rent, all boasted progress.

The mirrored central damage will be to the USEconomy, from both an exhausted household consumer and a lending climate reluctant to supply urgently needed credit. The dependence upon consumption will be unmasked as fatally flawed finally. Households will fail on car loans and credit cards as an echo to mortgages, resulting in severe loss of independence and freedom. One can live in a house for free, but not ride a car or carry plastic for long without consequences. To compound the problem of credit supply, Wall Street burned our allies by cheating them blind. Expect a backlash felt in the year 2008, including international ugly lawsuits and unexpected Wall Street broken glass like a seven year delayed Krystalnacht. The entire banking system will go bust in the Untied States this year, in a highly visible manner, as the entire world watches in total horror. The nation in custodial duty for the world reserve currency, the USDollar, will suffer a failed banking & bond system, which undoubtedly will result in a grotesque USEconomic recession. It is just a bit late in its arrival. The parade of disasters will be mindboggling, offering little respite. Even the Plunge Protection Team, armed with $1500 billion in black bag money, pilfered largely from Fannie Mae in the two districts harboring the home towns for the sitting presidents from 1988 to 2000, will not be capable to stem the tsunami of stock market sell orders. They might focus attention on the biggest and baddest corporations, but the banking stock index collapse reveals how the PPT could only hold up the S&P500 index, but not their buddies in big banks. SADLY, 2008 IS THE YEAR THE SYSTEM JUST PLAIN BREAKS.

People will run for cover. People will react with increasing anger. They will bristle with anger and frustration, even spark isolated riots, from rising food prices, rising gasoline prices with spotty supply, lost jobs from rising costs and outsourcing, lost homes from predatory lending followed by foreclosures. People will suffer realize that finances are not safe in banks, as bank runs spread amidst the fear in isolated cases, and some stock accounts are frozen unavailable amidst financial service conglomerate bankruptcies. The time honored Glass Steagall Law made impossible the merger of banks, brokerage houses, and insurance firms, for a reason. As banks fail, insurance and stock brokerage will be put at risk. The removed rule used to forbid shorting stocks on a downtick, but now will also render the system vulnerable. 2008 IS THE YEAR THE SYSTEM JUST PLAIN FREEZES.
CONFUSION WILL REIGN SUPREME

The year 2008 will bring with it a level of confusion never seen before in the nation´s history. Economists will be found befuddled, scratching their heads, dazed, and without solutions. Politicians will be confused as to what to advocate, unsure what is potentially effective. The entire argument of ´Inflation vs Deflation´ will turn into a crazed debate, with ignoramuses spouting all manner of drivel without knowledge of what inflation is, how it is caused, the frustration in producing it intentionally, and the broken apparatuses no longer able to function when their levers are pulled. When inflation is not only misunderstood but also indoctrinated in heretic fashion, the concept becomes a gathering large cloud intended for confusion of the masses. When the banking system is seized up as it is, the mechanisms to spew money into the system fail to function. When banks distrust each other more than individuals for their claimed collateral, the system fails to distribute money, even at lower interest rates. Issuing loans to individuals will fall to a low spot on priorities.

A huge event occurred in 2006, that being the flip of housing into a deflating asset. A huge event occurred in 2007, that being the flip of mortgage bonds into a deflating asset. As the entire risk price model system continues to disintegrate, the powerful teeth of deflating assets held by banks will render the banks themselves as utterly impotent agents to stir inflation. Ironically, as credit derivatives are sold off, the USDollar might actually benefit. Many writers talk about USFed Chairman Bernanke as stepping soon to the table with a mission to drop money from helicopters. Wow, are they ever popping some stupid pills?!? The events in the last four months have taught anybody with a lucid brain, a keen eye, and an active pulse (which eliminates the majority of investors) that the US Federal Reserve has become far more than a little bit IRRELEVANT. The banking system is so broken over here that the London LIBOR has become strained to the hilt. The hapless clueless hidebound USFed cannot recognize the problem of insolvency within the banking system, and cannot treat the problem with lower interest rates. That will certainly not stop them from cutting rates, since Goldman Sachs, acting as lead sled dog among the Wall Street harnessed team, has ordered them to do so. If lower rates will not solve the bank problem, why are we given lower rates? Simple, because it supports the stock market from an ugly bloody crash. The system cannot afford for stock assets to flip into a deflating asset.

The confusion to reign in year 2008 will center on the challenge to actively produce price inflation, while leaning upon broken banking entities. Confusion will reign from requests to Bernanke to ´do his helicopters thing´ when the winds of deflation will be so great that the cash drops are scattered into the deflation vortex. The desperate urgings made to Bernanke miss the lessons of the last four months. His primary perceived plan is to rescue the Wall Street banks, probably with far more redemptions, monetizations, and refunds delivered in basements and back rooms than the public will ever know. Such is the nature of the Fascist Business Model, to take care of the large corporations whose interests are merged with the USGovt, payola for the partners. The irony of the massive infusions of money, either with USFed injections or foreign capital infusions, is that they are extremely focused to rescue the ailing banks from insolvency. Except that they only rescue the ailing banks from illiquidity. Add money into an insolvent picture, account for it as an equity stake, and nothing is accomplished on the insolvency side. The new partners only have a larger share in the bankruptcy, better described as a vampire, walking dead. The system is not activated, no jobs produced, no new loans granted.

The confusion in 2008 will culminate in the ratcheting upward of the official rescue attempts, measures, freezes, adoptions, initiatives, and eventual grand platform, as my forecast has steadily called for. Each plan will be recognized as insufficient and limited, thus motivated the next desperate measure. The Grandiose Resolution Trust Corporation will be granted broad powers, and rule for a full decade, with a possible cabinet appointment creation. Another ugly irony is festering. Neither the Administration and Congress is willing to press forward to initiate ANY broad rescue just yet, since the first pig in line would be the Wall Street thieves, thugs, and conmen whose fingerprints are all over the mortgage bond debacle laced with criminal fraud. So the entire banking system will continue to slide into quicksand. Once politicians enter the picture, the problem worsens, no exception.
GOLD WILL RISE

Meanwhile, gold will rise for many reasons, few being the traditionally recognized ones. Gold will rise from gradual recognition that the banking system is destroyed. Gold will rise from the perceived need to generate price inflation, whether such efforts are successful or not, an expectation concept. Gold will rise from the Competing Currency Wars, as nations urgently print more money to stave off recession and grotesque asset deflation. The slowdown will hit China also, which has begun to hike prices but which will find itself saddled with overcapacity. Gold will rise primarily because the global money supply is rising at an astronomical rate, think Weimar, go global. Gold will rise because the smart ones will realize that the Untied States might seek war as a diversion amidst the crisis. Gold will rise from in response to failures in most policy initiatives, perceived symptoms to systemic breakdown. Gold will rise as the global revolt against the USDollar continues, with the current focal point being the Persian Gulf nations who must defend themselves from the ravages of inflation. The entire price inflation argument is somewhat a straw dog, in a loose sense. The USDollar decline has prompted costs to rise, not wages, the result being economic dampers cast across the US landscape. This prompts monetary inflation motivation. Remove China and price inflation could be easily generated. However, the system cannot succeed in producing price inflation without killing the USTreasury Bond complex altogether, as long-term rates would rise to smash and upend the credit derivative pyramid. More evidence that the USFed is the most irrelevant player at the table. Gold will rise as the globe finally reckons that the USFed, traditionally the most powerful among the central bankers, is IMPOTENT, TOOTHLESS, AND IRRELEVANT.

The chaos in the financial sector will be matched by growing chaos in the beehive of the USEconomy, the business complexes, the neighborhood communities. Watch for lawless behavior to rise, as chaos envelops the system. Watch for civil disobedience to crop up, as high crimes among Wall Street bankers and USGovt leaders go unaddressed. In the year 2008, the bylines will be 1) BREAKDOWN, 2) CHAOS, 3) FUTILITY OF TOOLS, 4) ABSENCE OF OPTIONS, 5) CONFUSION. Gold will rise as the bylines hit the press & media strewn with these messages. The system breaks in 2008. Denials will be laughable.
GOODBYE TO MANY

The year 2007 said goodbye to quite a long list of notables. The music world lost Dan Fogelberg, Porter Wagoner, Ike Turner (beat me), and Tommy Newsome, plus opera stars Luciano Pavarotti and Beverly Sills. Hollywood and the entertainment sphere lost Joey Bishop, Joel Siegel, Charles Nelson Reilly, Jack Valenti, Tom Poston, Ingmar Bergman, Merv Griffin, Robert Goulet, Yvonne DeCarlo, Tom Snyder, Jane Wyman, and Marcel Marceau. The political arena lost LadyBird Johnson, Art Buchwald, Tom Eagleton, Henry Hyde. The writing world lost Sydney Sheldon, Norman Mailer, Kurt Vonnegut, and historian Arthur Schlesinger. The sports world lost Phil Rizzuto (the Scooter), and recently Sean Taylor (Washington Redskins). Also lost were restauranteur Bob Evans, spirited Jerry Falwell, and astronaut Wally Schirra. The bizarre corner lost Tammy Faye (Baker) Messner, Leona Helmsley, Anna Nicole Smith, and Evil Knievel. Closer to home, my family lost my mother Maureen, who coined the name Jackass for me, due to my persistent outspoken, stubborn, and mischievous manner. She called me ´My Charming Rogue´ affectionately. She is missed deeply, her effect felt.

THE SOLUTIONS ALWAYS THERE

Greed is powerful, especially when subjected to those in charge of the world reserve currency for several decades. Rescinding the Bretton Woods Accord, wherein the USDollar was tied to gold, unleashed Pandora´s Box of financial evils. The abusive usage of monetary inflation as a remedy for excessive debts is perhaps the most pernicious destructive phenomenon in the last century. In a vicious disguise, monetary inflation kills entire industries, fleeces savers dry, transforms asset managers into casino players, and causes pervasive cost inflation, all of which impoverishes a nation. Tragically, all nations who hitched their monetary wagon to the Untied States risk tremendous damage from shared inflation wreckage. See Saudi Arabia, the entire Persian Gulf, even Hong Kong. Europe will not be spared either. The competing currency wars renders all as victims. The last deaths occur with the nations whose currencies rise, since they enjoy a rush of investment and enjoy reduced costs, but their export trade is harmed badly.

Over dinner tables when the Hat Trick Letter was inaugurated, my father repeatedly asked me what solutions could be offered. A literature professor not versed in financial matters, he grew weary of incessant talk by me on the unfixable nature of the current system. My pragmatism owes to his constructive nature. My constant reply was that the system would resist all solutions, since they would cause severe pain for both the system and its leaders, the Ruling Elite. My sassy reply was that a solution article would be an exercise in futility. My offering was ten solutions, which even he realized were totally impractical in today´s day and age. Now, four years later, my list seems comical and totally outside the real of possibility. For humor and completeness, as much as a treatise on the many sins committed by our economic and banking chieftains, here is my list.

msnoodlbrain 4 Kucinich 2008 - Monday, December 24th, 2007 9:08 AM PST
Hey... I am down with a mock up general election debate between Kucinich and Paul... just to see how they differ and why and if they would be a unifying team should the left get a clue and stop trying to be right all the time. I am down with anything that will get these criminals out of our system. Or change their politics so that we can have jobs, standardized national education so our peeps can communicate across the country, and healthcare for all.

Ron Paul has money, Kucinich has the brains to help the heartland including both the poor and the worker. They are different, but maybe together they can make both international and domestic changes that will restore our standing in the world and in our constitution.

We'll have to do the debate thing to curb any accesses, but damn... no more military industrial complex economies.

Lets ask them to debate each other just for the fun of it, as if it is down to those two only. We can stage it here in San Francisco and film it and present the results on youtube as a trim tab measure.

Michael Moore ended his movie Sicko by asking the simple question, "Who are we?" What kind of country is the United States of America?

Read the blog post below, from the excellent writer, Digby, and ponder this question again. A struggling family from Baltimore testifies in Congress in support of the S-CHIP program. How do our self-appointed defenders of the free market respond? Click the link.

http://digbysblog.blogspot.com/2007/10/fetid-compost-where-their-hearts-should.html

I've been observing the pathological behavior of the right wing in this country for years now, to the point where I've become cynical, jaded and almost unshockable. This, however, has left me in jaw-dropping amazement.

There is a small, vicious minority among us that will stop at nothing, NOTHING, to prevent our society from moving forward in any direction other than sinking us all deeper into a state of permanent war outside our borders and perpetual silence, terror and intimidation inside. Anyone who makes a stand is now fair game for smears and stalking by "concerned citizens", EVEN INJURED CHILDREN. Terrorists? Who needs "terrorists" when our own rabid 28-percenters are on the job? Meanwhile, the press either ignores or is amused by those "spunky" "entertaining" conservative pundits, who do their part to keep our political discourse extra-colorful, and too many Democratic politicians hide behind a false veneer of pseudo-civility rather than confront the fact that we are being ruled by a gang of thugs.

Will the Frost family have to become victims of violence before the rest of us take notice? What is to be done?

Is my wife correct when she asserts that the Republicans' goal is to stir up a new Civil War in America, because from where I'm standing, the evidence is mounting.

Again, WHO ARE WE? Where is our integrity?

In 2007, our country and our planet are facing huge problems and issues that must be resolved. We are not as helpless as we've been told. Human ingenuity has accomplished incredible things in a few thousand years. What do we use our skills for now? More and better ways to torture and enslave one another? Or do we harness our genius and our hard work to address the environment, population, food, health, and social inequities, etc? Most of our problems only exist because a few people are making big money off the status quo. This is why they HAVE to keep us hating each other this way, and silencing anyone who suggests an alternative. The haters are manipulated, even their manipulaters are manipulated. We are in the middle of a perfect storm of ignorance that rivals the Dark Ages.

And yet, signs of enlightenment are everywhere. Our human nature is never fully suppressed. We have the power to live differently, to invent, to not be at the effect of this stupidity.

My late friend Maati Stojanovich often talked about her native Yugoslavia, insisting that despite all the ethnic and religious differences there, all most people wanted to do was fish, drink wine, raise their families and be happy. All the "insurmountable long-standing hatreds" we hold in us come from our TRAINING. Why are we trained this way? So that we keep our eye off the ball while a small elite picks our pockets. It's a nasty racket.

Who are we? If American principles have any real meaning, it's time for them to show up. Otherwise, it's time to stop whining about Osama Bin Laden, because the terrorists and the "evildoers" are no one but ourselves.

End of rant for now. Thanks for listening.

Biology and Physics! - Tuesday, October 24th, 2006 8:59 AM PDT
Biology and Physics

Biology and Physics, the two most critical considerations in maintaining a healthy body, mind, spirit and heart, are the subject of this guestbook entry and in our news for the day.

After 55 years of accumulating thousands of dollars worth of education, counseling (psychic and psychological), workshops, consciousness trainings, creative performance experiences, and continual readings and writings that dig deeply into the possibility of being an enhanced self organizing anarchist exempt from the dutiful daughter routine expected of my gender.... an expectation that will cause ostracization when not adhered to....

I look to the management of my own biology and physics for grounding in the face of critical life changing moments.

I use these two main considerations to ward off any voodoo, and all hack attacks out to undermine my ability to stay fresh, open minded, and intentional in my aims to shift this stupid economy from machiavellian practices meant to drive these two basic life thriving components out of human awareness and consideration.

Biology.... the body is made up of complex organic and inorganic materials engaged in intricate, but reliable, processes that produce one fifth live protoplasm in continuous cell production that provides the materials that make the body and all of its parts. These cells fire more often when young, and more slowly when older. The other four fifths of the body are in entropy... meaning the cells are in the process of dying, and are replaced by the new cells made in this primordial soup we call protoplasm. But this refreshing of the cells in the body occurs only when the body takes in the nutrition necessary to accomplish these amazing results. It takes a few weeks to refresh the cells in the entire body... which actually isn't very long.

When we eat real food, we get the inorganic cell salts necessary to couple with the organic materials in the body to produce new cells. When we eat processed foods, the inorganic cell salts are processed out before the food gets to you and the body cannot reproduce quality cells any longer. We can get sick, tired, weak, agitated, angry and show symptoms of psychological imbalance... all caused by our biology dependent on the food we eat. We will probably default to the advice of a doctor whose main job is to sell pharmaceuticals, which probably give back enough cell salts to diminish effects, but not correct the problems.

It really pisses me off that the medical industry has thwarted the herbal remedies of old and have colluded with the food industry to assist them in crafting our choices such that we are like pigs to the slaughter, in slow motion.... Unaware, faithful, and trusting as human beings naturally are, until the Adam effect wears off. (Adam was the guy in the bible who fell asleep and never woke up)...

But this Adam, or madam, has gotten herself educated and saw enough death and suffering from illness to put two and two together, and I am here to tell you that if you want a healthy body, that allows for a healthy mind, heart and spirit, your first step is to love yourself and your body enough to prepare (or pay someone to prepare) and eat healthy food. That means veggies, grains (pasta is processed food, rice is a grain), fruits, and the meat, fish, and fowl of animals that have fed off of the earth, not processed feed.

If you have to bring a sick body to health, the process is not difficult. As you are changing your diet, go to whole foods, or any homeopathic store and buy and start taking each of the twelve vital inorganic cell salts you need to bring back the balance in your protoplasm. Stop eating crap, especially sugar. Take a teaspoon of honey for your craving.... eat popcorn for filler. Bring down your bag of pollution that is crafting a major health attack early on, by eating fresh salads, cottage cheese, or tofu and veggies for a while.

Physics: Aside from being a complicated study regarding atoms, and energy, physics is all about light and energy brought about by turning the light around and focusing on the energy that occurs or is missing in your own body, heart, spirit and mind.

Physics is self generated. Trash in/trash out. If you bring wholesome ideas that inspire you to action into your consciousness, then you trip the light fantastic. The first law of thermodynamics, upon which the study of physics is based, is that ACTION CREATES ENERGY. The second law is: Where there is no energy, entropy (the process of decay and dying) ensues (happens next).

So to pay attention to your own physics is crucial, especially now when some kids don't have gymnastics to teach them the value of energy output and how that enhances the spirit, the mind and freshens the body.

The more energy one expends (running, walking, dancing, performing, working, concentrating, intercoursing, debating, engaging in life's many action oriented activities that require the body to move and breath with concentrated efforts) the more alert, the less afraid, the more substantial one feels.

If one sits around waiting for life to do something to get one off his/her ass, the more stressed, the more agitated, the more slovenly one becomes about his/her own life. Its like the serpent eating its own tail.. the circularity of an entropy fed by no action and no cause for action.

Holding ones life as a potential energy source awaiting one good idea that will inspire it to action, creates a curiosity worth exploring.

If one's mind is too full of darkness, or too full of a belief rather than an experience of spiritual living, then one can easily be thrown into catch 22 ideas that are paralyzing and call for pharmaceuticals to calm the inner voices that cannot be sorted out by him/herself. Beware of those legal drugs out to fuck you up and validate your unworthiness because that is the stuff this economy is made of. When I hear in the news of genocide and suicide bombers and kids who kill, I realize how far these profit mongers will go to get some meaningless bucks into their pockets. I think it is important to explore the dark side of life, where our creativity lives, and to bring to light your discoveries that free humanity from blind faith in economies out to harm us.

BIOLOGY AND PHYSIC IN MOTION

Brighten yourself with a good solid walk or jog, or an hour of yoga, or two hours at the gym. Feed yourself some good solid food. Allow your imagination to soar freely until you light upon something that really turns you on, and will serve another in some way. Because as George Battialle states in Eroticism:Death and Sensuality, " human nature needs to serve, and animal nature needs to be divine in that service'. Where this is missing, all sorts of anquish and ping pong self annihilation will occur.

I apologize to the youth of America for not being bright enough, early enough to have seen this coming. Everyone is guilty and no one is to blame. We have to pull together as one to snap out of this trance that keeps aloof any blame.

I have a preference and a demand for Justice and Freedom. Justice and Freedom and independence rely on a civilized people who engage with ethics, logic and passion to build trust and then develop an intelligent interdependence, which is what we do in America when we are not broke and broken... If we are kept too busy and/or even too well to care to pay attention, we may learn to adapt rather than raise a ruckus. In conscious action, we can cause change to occur more rapidly, more safely with little to no bloody revolution...

I am talking about causing evolution to occur right now, now now now now now... every second of now so time no longer matters but now does. And now is always there and non repeating... but you have to be there, to be there, and that is not easy in a world already organized in bad practices and propped up by those who have no intention to let go of those practices....

Who dares to confront these monsters?

We do, as individuals we take care of our Biology and our Physics and let the markets that support crime, war and disease collapse, while replacing them with markets that make a difference in the quality of human life. Our children and our planet require it.

J Neo Marvin - Monday, October 9th, 2006 10:54 PM PDT

The promise religion offers is one of certainty and supposed stability.

More than once I've heard the argument, "if you don't have God to tell you what's right and wrong, then there is no right and wrong, and therefore if you have no belief in God there is nothing to prevent you from indulging in any monstrous, evil act that strikes your fancy." The problem with this point of view is if you believe this, you are basically saying there is no "morality" other than one that is forcibly imposed by some superior being. The implication here is that human beings have no capacity for ethics and no ability to empathize with one another. Now that is a far bleaker attitude toward life than most atheists and agnostics would ever conjure up, isn't it? Are we really nothing more than a pack of penny-ante De Sades only held in check by the threat of lightning bolts from the Lord? I'd like to think we're capable of more than that.

Besides, if one considers such events as the Spanish Inquisition, the Crusades, or the conquest of the Americas (and I'm only listing Christian atrocities here...certainly most other major religions, apart perhaps from Buddhism as far as I know, have stepped up to the plate as well), the whole argument that religion is a check on the darker side of human nature falls flat on it's face, doesn't it?

(For the record, I consider myself more an agnostic than an atheist, since I consider it the height of arrogance to presume that it's possible to know that which is unknowable.)

Many knowledges I have found here I would come back

davis - Wednesday, August 9th, 2006 7:40 PM PDT
All religions originate from their own principles of philosophy, the study of how we know what we know.

On the cause and effect scale, "belief systems" that are not based on innate and therefore sacred knowledge, occur so that people can do what everyone else does.

This is an opinion level of existence which is only three levels up from unconsciousness. See the "Being at The Effect" and "Being at Cause" sections of this website under the Education tab for more information.

I wouldn't base economies on this platform of "Belief Systems" and expect them to be stable. The resulting industries based on what people believe lack substance and pose conflict habituated patterns.

The ensuing war, crime, and disease industries merely conduct their businesses in ways that appear to assist in the dissarray caused by them.

The "humanitarian services" provided by the non profits beg for money to operate so there is a balance and a sense of hope. But while these investments are put in place to repair the damages caused by these industries, the industries do not intend to stop killing, plundering, stealing, or diseasing.

Belief system economies are based on the invisibility of the ourisbouris syndrome. The snake is eating its tail and the repetition is endlessly tragic.

Let us stop all connections between what people choose to believe, and what is invested in that can cause conflict habituated behavior.

People have a right to believe what they want, but let our industries be based on what is known, not what is believed.

Then perhaps we can put to rest those oh so convoluted souls willing to die in the name of these images projected by these beliefs.

We can let go and evolve beyond war state politics and economics. And it is high time we do.

TC - Wednesday, July 19th, 2006 7:06 AM PDT
Check out http://www.theunholytrinity.co.uk You can find out the following: The major premise of The Unholy Trinity is that the God worshipped by many Christians, and the Jesus about whom fantastic claims and ´shocking´ revelations have been made in religious conspiracy books such as The Da Vinci Code´, are both constructs built from flawed church doctrine. Unlike many other books in this genre, all the evidence contained in the Unholy Trinity to demonstrate the validity of its assertions is taken from the unedited words of the Bible. For example, the book demonstrates that biblical support for belief in the Virgin Birth and the Resurrection of Jesus is ambiguous and hence argues that they should not be enshrined in infallible dogma.

It's worth a look, seriously. http://www.theunholytrinity.co.uk

Top 10 Signs You Are A Fundamentalist Christian

10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.

9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.

8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.

7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even
flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including women, children, and trees!

6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.

5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old.

4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving."

3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be all the evidence you need to "prove" Christianity.

2 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.

1 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a Christian.

Confusions of an Expressed Mind - Thursday, June 15th, 2006 9:40 PM PDT
Confusions of an Expressed Mind

Overexposed reflections
dwarfed to containment
Nuclear attractions
electrodes exploding
sporatically
Passionate color,
unplanned, vaulted
Producing, protruding,
bulgingly grotesque
Hard as glass,
Unlike any other disturbance.

See through mirrors
two-ways or more
None what essense demands,
commands--
Bulldozers gently floating
in a sea of salt water, rustful.
Slick, slick, sick, repulsve
necessarily stripping
Magnificent horrification,
Now, Now, Ow.

Resonation.....drumming sounds
impulsive shatterings
Rhythmic resoundings
of unwantedness.
Medicine woman, threading
bare strings playing
the Sculptor, crippled by need,
Ready and Inactive.

Wave upon wave,
Reenact re-entrance
of an unrepressed will.
Shattering bullets
chiseled of revenge
Ice splinters in the soul
Melted in tears
Wet with retouched love
emptied through a tender mirror
unneeded no more.

Recovering under exposure
Rawness fakes strength.
Survival, revival
Swimming in a can of heat
Air conditioning an expense
Far beyond comfort.
A bee sting healing the soul
more resolutely, however painful.

America loses Seat in UN - Thursday, June 15th, 2006 8:50 PM PDT
America loses Seat in UN


Oh if we could just care enough to be ashamed. And then put in the correction.

Perhaps the rest of the world knows our school system does not teach humanities?

That our governments and corporations do not operate out of ethics, logic and passion, and are mostly incompetent or strategically profit-centered pig stys?

With hatchet men who will make offers to appease the quivering quail?

Our Aristocracy seems stuck in a Jean Genet triple bypass snaking lunacy and stealing substance from any possibility of a sense of purpose and balance.

A sense of leadership and pride.

A sense of faith, hope and charity.

A sense of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

A sense of multicultural acceptance.

A sense of evolution lurking in the not so distant future.

A sense of America, the one we once died for.

And our institutions groom greedy strongholds to secure cynicism and populate the madness with bloated rusted recycles of daft and duped.

We are now ugly, armed and dangerous. wounded could take us over the edge....Who will check us?

(Thank you Europe... )I wonder if America's population has any clue at all of their losses in constitutional and human rights issues within our own borders?

outside our borders?

Can anyone begin to list the rights we have lost here?

In the last thirty years?

Dear sir,

There is not much you can "do" with my wife. And yes, she is the real thing.

fokowi - Friday, May 5th, 2006 12:50 PM PDT
you either 'doth protest too loudly'... or are the real thing.

hmmm

not sure what to do with you.

Right on, Honey...

I am rather suspicious of this
bird flu thang... so I thought
I would post this.....

like SARS.... I mean really?

She has some good points, but you are able to point out the political agendas much quicker than I.

Thanks ma dear!

J Neo Marvin - Tuesday, March 14th, 2006 8:47 AM PST
There's some interesting stuff in this article, enough to make one take notice and start viewing the talk of an impending epidemic with a great deal of skepticism. I wish she talked a bit more about the evidence for vaccines containing live viruses and bacteria. It's a bold assertion and I'd like to see some real documentation on that. Otherwise, we can speculate about the schemes of our evil overlords all day long, and it doesn't mean a thing.

That said, I definitely have little to no faith in this the cover stories this administration concocts to keep the public scared and servile.

HOWEVER,

Dr. Day really loses me when she insists that the source for all this deceit is a Zionist-Jewish conspiracy. Yes, the Israel lobby is powerful in America, and many "neoconservatives" are Jewish, but many of them are NOT (Dick Cheney? Come on), and to blur the two is simplistic and possibly deceitful in itself.

I'm more inclined to see all this as the old story of old-school white colonial economic power working to establish and maintain control of all the resources of the world to keep the cream of it all for their own elite minority and exploit everyone else to keep the system going. I'm not convinced that population control is part of their agenda; I think they are happy to keep breeding a large, expendable serf population whose lives amount to plentiful, disposable cheap labor. That's why they promote misogynistic religions around the world that preach that women should be kept barefoot and pregnant.

I don't see the global elite as being Jewish or even particularly religious themselves in any way; Zionism is merely another belief system they exploit, just like Christian or Muslim fundamentalism. Keep people mired in mysticism and belief systems so they can't see the strings pulling them. The neocons are USING Israel, not the other way around. It's just another building block in their grab for Middle Eastern oil fields for the "New American Century". Feudalism? Oh yes, verily. Jewish conspiracy? Oh, please. That "Protocols Of The Elders Of Zion" talk is just part of the problem: long-discredited fascist propaganda that is just another example of how the real powers that be manipulate people's emotions by distracting them with a convenient, stereotypical villain. We are smarter than that, aren't we?

In short: extreme skepticism about the medical industry is necessary and proper, but unsupported assertions about agendas that border on anti-Semitic (possibly Lyndon Larouche propaganda) are nothing but more dramatic distractions that divert our attention from the REAL conspiracies happening right in front of our noses, and only stir up more hatred in the world. I assert that Noodlebrain is more enlightened than this.

How One Wicked Nation Can Kill Billions
Around the World - - With One Lie!
January 24, 2006

Lorraine Day, M.D.

When the wicked leaders of a wicked nation want to:

Create FEAR and CHAOS and TERROR throughout the world

Take away the rights of citizens in every nation in the world

Create a world-wide pandemic and annihilation of a large segment
of a nation´s population by forced vaccinations that secretly contain live
bacteria and viruses for AIDS, herpes, hepatitis, and small pox, as well
as preservatives made from mercury that cause brain damage and autism.

Control every country in the world by allowing the World Health Organization (WHO) to enter and take over their emergency medico-political apparatus and place embargos or quarantines on the entire country

Eliminate the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 which bans the military from participating in police-type activity on U.S. soil. This act specifically prohibits the government from using the military against its own citizens. (This Posse Comitatus Act was severely violated at Waco, when U.S. military troops were used against the Branch Davidians.)

Help create famines in order to annihilate a large portion of
the world´s population by killing off the food supply of any and every nation,
by killing their chickens, turkeys and other birds used for food.

Declare martial Law and suspend the Constitution. All they need to do is create - out of thin air –
the Bird Flu "Pandemic" HOAX! Almost daily, the newspapers, radio stations and television programs pummel us with news of the coming Avian Flu "pandemic" and the necessity of developing vaccines and instituting mandatory vaccination programs - - -for EVERYBODY!

President George W. Bush has spoken repeatedly of a "Military Takeover
In Case Of A Flu Outbreak." (CNN October 4 & 5, 2005) and possible quarantine of the victims of bird flu! "I´m concerned about what an avian flu
outbreak could mean for theUnited States and the world," the President told reporters during a Rose Garden news conference.

The Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 bans the military from participating in police-type activity on U.S. soil. It was enacted to prohibit the government from using the military to control or attack the citizens of its own country. Bush began discussing the possibility of changing or eliminating this law in the aftermath of the government´s sluggish
response to civil unrest following Hurricane Katrina. If this is done, it would allow the government of the United States to use military troops against
its own people (as was already done in the Waco tragedy).

Symptoms of Bird Flu

Let´s examine the widely heralded (supposedly) coming Avian Flu Pandemic
and what impact it could possibly have on the U.S.and the World!

1. What are the symptoms of bird flu in humans?

According to the web site of the (WHO) World Health Organization www.who.int/csr/don/2004_01_15/en/), the symptoms of avian influenza
(Type H5N1) are:

Fever

Sore throat

Cough

And possibly, viral pneumonia

The web site of the (CDC) Centers for Disease Control (www.cdc.gov/flu/avian/gen-info/facts.htm) gives the following symptoms
for avian flu:

Fever

Cough

Sore throat and muscle aches

And possibly, pneumonia

Another area of the web site of the CDC at www.cdc.gov/flu/avian/professional/han020405.htm gives the following symptoms for Avian Flu:

documented temperature of 38 degrees C

(>100.4 degrees F ), AND one or more of the following:

cough,

sore throat,

shortness of breath, AND

History of contact with poultry (e.g. visited a poultry farm, a
household raising poultry, or a bird market) or a known or suspected human case of influenza A (H5N1) in an H5N1-affected country within 10 days of symptom onset.
Please note: A temperature of 100.4 degrees Farenheit can be generated
on a hot day in a totally healthy person who has NO disease whatsoever!

This is a medical fact.

A cough can occur from a cold, allergies, asthma, air pollution,
certain medications, from smoking, or many other causes.

All these symptoms are non-specific, meaning they can occur in any combination with a host of medical conditions totally unrelated to bird
flu OR regular flu.

So it´s possible for the government to quarantine a person for an indeterminate period of time, jeopardizing the person´s job and income, if
he or she has a cough on a hot day! (Remember, the symptoms are: a
temperature of >100.4 F AND one or more of the following: cough, sore
> throat, shortness of breath, OR contact with any type of bird.

2. What are the symptoms of REGULAR flu (NOT avian flu)? These are also
given on the CDC´s web site atwww.cdc.gov/flu/keyfacts.htm. They are the following:

Fever of 100.4 degrees F or higher

Headache

Extreme tiredness

Dry cough

Sore throat

Runny or stuffy nose

Muscle aches

Stomach symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, also can
occur but are more common in children than adults.

3. Question: How does anyone differentiate the symptoms of AVIAN FLU
(bird flu) from the symptoms of REGULAR FLU?

Answer: As a physician, I can tell you that it is IMPOSSIBLE to tell
the difference!

"How many people die each year from REGULAR FLU (NOT bird flu)?

"The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) states, "Every year in the United
States, on average, 36,000 people die from flu."
(http://www.cdc.gov/flu/keyfacts.htm)

But this is a deliberate deception by the CDC!

"Below are the actual number of flu associated deaths from 1999 to 2002
from the CDC National Vital Statistic Reports

(http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr52_13.pdf):

753 deaths in 2002 (page 16 of report)

257 deaths in 2001 (page 16 of report)

1,765 deaths in 2000

1,665 deaths in 1999

"How does the CDC get from 753 flu deaths to its statement that 36,000
flu deaths occur annually?

"By combining flu deaths with pneumonia deaths. The CDC National Vital Statistic Report for 2002 lists Influenza and Pneumonia as the 7th leading cause of death in 2002. You probably already guessed it – only 753 of those deaths were flu-associated and the rest of the 36,000 were pneumonia-associated. If all flu-associated deaths are removed, pneumonia associated deaths still ranks number 7 by itself. The media used the
false 36,000 deaths number in its coverage – 50 times the actual 2002/2003
number.

"Are the 257 to 1,765 reported annual flu deaths from 1999 to 2002 even
accurate?
"No. It is not possible to determine the actual number of deaths
caused by the flu because the CDC has no death certificate category for deaths
caused only by the flu. The CDC has three basic categories of flu deaths:

influenza plus pneumonia

influenza plus other respiratory manifestations/symptoms

influenza plus other manifestations/symptoms (non-respiratory)"

"Health professionals may try to justify the legitimacy of combining
flu deaths with pneumonia deaths with the statement that "influenza leads to
pneumonia." But the facts do not support this frequent, broad misstatement by health professionals.

"The American Lung Association (ALA) describes pneumonia as having over 30 different causes (one being the influenza virus). Neither the CDC nor
ALA know the specific causes of the pneumonias that resulted in death.
However, we do know that influenza is not the major cause.

"Keep in mind that the influenza vaccine provides no protection from
bacterial infections. The National Institute of Allergy & Infectious
Disease as well as other health agencies estimate that the single bacteria – streptococcus pneumoniae – is responsible for 15% to 50% of ALL cases of pneumonia in the US, including up to 40,000 deaths annually (http://www.nlaid.nih.gov/factsheets/pneumonia.htm)

"Pneumonia is also caused by other bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus
(staph), Pertussis (whooping cough), Streptococci, and Mycoplasm pneumoniae
(a common cause of "walking" pneumonia). There are also many non-infectious
causes of pneumonia such as asthma, aspiration of fluids, immunodeficiency,
etc.

"So, it stretches credibility to assert that the flu causes pneumonia
when, in fact, the data shows that it only causes a small minority of cases
of pneumonia."

CDC,Media Hype The Flu – Facts Show Different Picture Health Supreme by
Sepp Hasslberger. Statistics compiled by Frank Hartman. http://www.newmediaexplorer.org/sepp/2004/11/06/cdc_media_hype_the_flu_facts_show_different_picture.htm

My Talk With The CDC

Several months ago, I called the CDC and spoke with one of the doctors
in the "Flu Division." I identified myself by name and as a physician, and
he gave me his name and position. I asked him how a physician like myself
could possibly differentiate "Bird flu" from "regular flu." He answered,
"You really can´t."

I asked him if we physicians were asked to go house to house to check
for people with bird flu with the possibility of quarantine of the patient
(for how long?) and the potential for the quarantine to cause the person to
lose income or even to lose his job, how could we distinguish "Bird flu" from
the "regular flu"? He agreed it would be virtually impossible.

Then I asked him why President George W. Bush was publicly contemplating
QUARANTINE for these patients? His response was, "He didn´t get that from
us here at the CDC. That´s ALL politics!"

But Now The CDC IS Talking About Quarantine (I guess they got the
message!)

Recently, Julie Gerberding, M.D., Director of the CDC, publicly
discussed the possibility of quarantine as a method of controlling the "Bird flu" even though, by their own admission, it´s impossible to tell "Bird flu" from "regular flu."

Remember SARS? How Does SARS fit into all this?What Are the Similarities
Between "Bird Flu" and "SARS"? (according to the CDC´s own website)

1. They have IDENTICAL symptoms:

Fever of 100.4 degrees F or higher

Headache

General discomfort and body aches

Possibly a dry cough with mild respiratory symptoms

NOW, the question here, of course, is: How does one distinguish the symptoms of "Bird Flu" from "SARS"?

Answer: It is IMPOSSIBLE!

"Bird Flu," "SARS, and Regular Flu ALL have the SAME symptoms!

How Interesting!!

SARS Was "Billed" as a Coming, Frightening Pandemic!

But just how many people have died from SARS?

According to the website of the World Health Organization (WHO), as of
January 21, 2005, the statistics for SARS are as follows:

a. 8439 people – worldwide - have "been affected" – whatever that
means! Does that mean they contracted the disease of "SARS" but didn´t
die, or does that mean that they were "affected" because they or someone in
their family was just exposed to SARS but did not get sick? The World Health
Organization doesn´t tell us.

("Been affected" is NOT a medical term and the WHO doesn´t explain what
they mean. It sounds like the World Health Organization is trying to make
the numbers sound bigger than they really are.)

b. And 812 deaths WORLDWIDE - over a period of the last 3-4 YEARS!
(If, indeed, we can believe ANY of the figures we receive through the
commercial media!)

Now Let´s Put This In Perspective!

Are you aware that EVERY DAY in the U.S. ALONE, more than 1,400 Americans
die from Heart Disease?

Remember, that´s EVERY DAY! - - - - In just ONE country!

It is absolute NONSENSE to classify "SARS" as a potential pandemic!
This is NOTHING more than rank propaganda! 812 deaths from SARS – Worldwide – over 3-4 years - compared to 1,400 deaths per DAY from heart disease in this country alone!

But SARS Did not Spread Fast Enough to Produce a Pandemic. Because "SARS" did not spread fast enough from country to country to create the Pandemic that was Predicted (and PLANNED for by the New World Order) – something else had to be done!

They had to develop - -

"SARS" With Wings!! - - -"Bird Flu"!!

Now they (the WHO – run by the New World Order) can have this disease
flying from one country to another country wherever they want it to land.
In addition, it allows them to destroy a significant portion of the food
supply of any country they wish – the chickens, turkeys and other birds
used for food by the population of these various countries. The New World
Order has found that one excellent way to control a country is to control (or
eliminate) their food. (See the United Nations quote at the end of this article!)

Is This Just "Terror Talk"?

How does one discern "Terror Talk"? How does one differentiate Truth
from Propaganda?

Pay careful attention to the words in the title of the articles, and
the (unfounded) assumptions and pure speculations made by the author both in
the title and throughout the article. Here are a just a few REAL examples
from some "Bird Flu" articles posted on the internet and in the print media in
the last few months:

Indonesia – New Suspected Human Bird Flu Case (Web-Posted 1-8-06)

Notice that this is only a "suspected" Human case. In many, if not
most, instances, the "suspected" case turns out not to be Bird Flu. But the
public is never informed, leaving the impression that the case is real.

Mystery – Bird Flu Fails to Migrate As Expected (Posted 12-29-05)

The word "Mystery" is calculated to created fear in the reader, fear that
no one will know what to do or how to stop the supposed "epidemic." This
article also suggests that "bird flu" is NOT traveling with migratory
birds.
(Maybe that´s because it´s NOT "Bird" flu!)

Bird Flu: How Worried Should You Be? USA TODAY , Oct 11, 2005

Notice that the title is assuming you should be worried! The ONLY question is HOW worried should you be. This is cleverly crafted to create unwarranted fear in the reader.

Bird Flu Could Pose Enormous Threat To US Economy Posted 12-9-05

Bird Flu "Could" do anything in the world that the author of the article
can conjure up in his imagination. The use of the word "could" defines this
article as pure propaganda. The article contains projections that have no basis in fact, including exaggerated mortality rates, and a preposterous
figure of 30% of the population being affected. NOWHERE in the world, is
this happening. This type of propaganda is shameful to the author and
offensive to any reader who is a thinking person.

Dangerous Unique H5N1 Mutation in Ukraine? Posted 12-10-05

Notice the question mark at the end of the title. Nothing in the article
has been verified. This should not even be reported until it is verified.
This type of title (particularly beginning with the word "Dangerous!") is
specifically designed to put the question into the reader´s brain as
though it is a fact. It is not fact. It is irresponsible to headline articles in this way.

Extensive H5N1 Human-To-Human Transmission In Indonesia? Posted
10-22-05

Here again we have the question mark! The information in the title is
designed to be planted into the reader´s brain as fact – when it is only a question. This is a deliberately inflammatory title. This is irresponsible journalism. In addition, the article refers to only 7 or 8 cases, linked to what is termed four familial "clusters." The word "cluster" is being used to imply that there are a number of cases of human-to human-transmission.
On closer examination of the article, the reader finds that the author is
using the word "cluster" to describe only TWO people. "TWO" people cannot
be referred to as a "cluster." Again, this is deliberately misleading,
and irresponsible journalism designed to strike fear into the heart and mind
of the reader, as well as to imply that this (non) disease WILL cause an
epidemic.

Is H5N1 Wild Bird Flu In Canada? Posted 11-17-05

Again, watch for the question mark at the end of the title. The authoris deliberately propagandizing the reader by implanting the question as a
"fact" in the reader´s mind. But it is NOT a fact and should never be reported unless it IS a fact!

Turkey H5N1 Is Recombining With Mammalian Polymorphisms Posted 1-14-06

The average reader would have no idea what this author is writing about
and does not have the background to understand anything in the article.
All the reader will see is the title, and in the title the words "Turkey H5N1"
and "Mammalian." This is designed to implant in the reader´s mind the idea
that "Bird Flu" is mutating into "Mammalian" or Human "Bird" flu. The
purpose, again, is to create fear in the reader that the epidemic is
getting worse, when, in truth, the article gives NO evidence to support that notion.

Several solid rules for judging whether an article is propaganda, are:

1. Watch for speculative terms. If the title ends with a question mark this is pure speculation. This allows the author to use his wildest imagination in developing a scenario to cause fear and panic.

2. Again watch for speculative terms. If the title contains the
word "could", this is pure speculation. This, again, allows the author to fabricate any outcome he chooses.

3. If the title contains inflammatory words such as "Dangerous"
"Suspect" "Mystery" "Worried" "Fear" "Explode", the chances are extremely
high that this is pure propaganda designed to create fear.

Human Deaths From "Bird Flu"

How many deaths from Human "Bird Flu´ have been reported to date?

Approximately 65 deaths in Asia (the main area this "disease" supposedly
has affected) from Human cases of "Bird Flu" have been reported by the World
Health Organization (WHO).

According to the Internet World Stats (Usage and Population Statistics),
the population of Asia is 3,622,994,130. That´s 56.4% of the World´s population.

If we divide 65 (supposed deaths from "bird flu") into 3,622,994,130 people in Asia, the answer is approximately 54 million. That means that in Asia there has been ONE death for every 54 MILLION people! - - - HARDLY the statistics necessary to predict a frightening pandemic!" OR to call out the military forces!

That would be similar to declaring an epidemic of "Bird Flu" in the United States with only 5 or 6 deaths in the entire country! That, of course, would be ridiculous!

But why should we be surprised! George W. Bush is talking about
declaring martial law and calling out the military when there has been NOT
ONE SINGLE DEATH - - - OR EVEN ONE PERSON INFECTED with "Bird Flu" in the
entire country!

This is nothing more than Fear-mongering Propaganda!

And What Are Our Sources of Information? Can We Trust Them?

We know that the commercial media, including television and the newspapers, is owned by a handful of people, the vast majority of whom are Zionist Jews. (If you don´t believe it, just search the web for the owners and CEOs of the TV networks and the major newspapers.) Here are some of their quotes, demonstrating that we cannot expect to hear truth through their news outlets:

Richard M. Cohan, Senior Producer of CBS political news said: "We are
going to impose OUR AGENDA on the coverage by dealing with issues and
subjects that WE choose to deal with."

Richard Salant, former President of CBS News stated: "Our job is to give
people not what they want, but what WE decide they ought to have."

John Swinton, Former Chief of Staff for the New York Times, called by
his peers "The Dean of his Profession" said in 1953: "There is no such thing.
.. as an independent press. . If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in
one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be
gone.
The business of the journalist is to destroy the truth; to lie outright;
to pervert; to vilify; to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his
country and his race for his daily bread. . .We are the tools and vassals
of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings
and we dance. Our talents and our lives are all the property of other
men. We are intellectual prostitutes.

Needless to say, Commercial Television and the Newspapers have
completely ceased to be repositories of truth. They are not trustworthy in any way.

How about the Internet?

Information on Bird Flu comes primarily from the web sites of the
following organizations:

The Centers for Disease Control

The World Health Organization, and

ProMed/ISID (International Society for Infectious Diseases)

How reliable are these organizations?

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC)

This is a highly politicized government organization. For example, the AIDS Information Hotline at the CDC, where one would call to find out how
to be safe from AIDS, is run, not by the CDC! - a group that has the HIGHEST
rate of AIDS in the country! Obviously, they have not learned – or don´t wish to practice – how to prevent AIDS!

If it is true, as it strongly appears to be, that "Bird Flu" is a HOAX,
perpetrated by the government on the public to create fear, take away
personal rights, make money on vaccinations and drugs for "bird flu",
cause real pandemics of disease and death by placement of other disease-causing organisms in the supposed "bird flu" vaccines, destroy huge numbers of turkeys, ducks and other birds to assist in causing massive famine, all of which will help decrease the population of the world, - - - then if a CDC employee, including the Director of the CDC, refused to go along with the government propaganda, he or she would be fired for insubordination.

So the CDC is not a trustworthy source of information about "Bird Flu."

The World Health Organization (WHO)

The World Health Organization is the Population Control/Euthanasia/Genocide arm of the United Nations. The WHO has the same problems of bias and oversight as the CDC.

The United Nations ultimate goals are 1) the redistribution of wealth
throughout the world, 2) a vast and rapid reduction in the population of
the world for "sustainable development", and 3) the elimination of
nation-states with the implementation of a One World Government.

In conjunction with Illuminati members such as Prince Philip and Prince
Charles of the U.K., they want to return the world to what they term a
"Post-Industrial" or "Feudal Society" where there are only three main classes of people – The feudal lords (who own ALL the land), the administrators who work for the feudal lords, and the slaves, who work the land. (If you have any doubts about these issues, use your search engine to find information about the Illuminati, "Sustainable Development","Feudalism", the "Georgia Guidestones - America´s Stonehenge", One World Government, and Population Control. Dr. Stan Monteith´s website
www.radioliberty.com has excellent information to get you started.)

One efficient way of reducing the population of the world, the Illuminati
has found, is by the deliberate spread of disease. Bertrand Russell, and advisor to several presidents, wrote in his book, The Impact of Science on
Society,
"At present the population of the world is increasing... War so far
has had no great effect on this increase... I do not pretend that birth
control is the only way in which population can be kept from increasing. There are others... If a Black Death could be spread throughout the world once in every generation, survivors could procreate freely without making the world too full... the state of affairs might be somewhat unpleasant, but what of it? Really high-minded people are indifferent to suffering, especially that of others."

For thousands of years, all the way back to Nero - and probably before, dictators have controlled their subjects by Fear and Terror! It is no different now. The phony "War on Terror," promoted by U.S. President George W. Bush and his "Neo-Conservative" Zionist-Jewish controllers, such as
Bill Kristol, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, Douglas Feith, Dov Zakheim, Natan
Sharansky, and others like them, is designed to terrorize Americans into
giving up their rights (Read the Patriot Acts – I & II) whereby they will
become slaves of the New World Order.

What could possibly be George W. Bush´s reason for doing this? Don´t
he and his controllers like us common Americans? The answer is a firm "No."
In fact, they refer to us as "Useless Eaters!" Leaders of countries rarely
have the best interest of their citizens at heart. If you doubt this,
please read Death by Government by R. J. Rummel , a book that exposes genocide and mass murder by government. This extensively referenced book reveals that many more citizens have been murdered by their own government leaders than have been killed in war by foreign powers!

Recently, General Leonid Ivashov, the former Chief of Staff of the Russian armed forces when the September 11, 2001, attacks took place, said during the Axis for Peace 2005 Conference, and now explains publicly, that "international terrorism does NOT exist and that the September 11 attacks
were the result of a set-up. What we are seeing is a manipulation by the
big powers; this terrorism would not exist without them." (Posted at
www.rense.com 1/22/06)

He explains that this "Terrorism" talk is the weapon used in a new type
of war in complicity with the media, which allows modifying international
politics and changing existing reality. In other words, "Terrify the
people with incessant talk of "Terrorism" so they will give up their rights and become malleable slaves in the hands of the New World Order."

So the World Health Organization of the United Nations, which is also
promoting this myth of the "War on Terror" is NOT a trustworthy source of
information about "Bird Flu."

What about the Internet News Outlet – ProMed/ISID? Is it trustworthy?
Let´s investigate who funds ProMed/ISID.

On their website (www.promedmail.org - and click on "About ProMed-mail),
you will find the following:

"ProMed-mail and ISID are grateful to the Gates Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, the Oracle Corporation, the Nuclear Threat Initiative, and an anonymous donor for financial support.

Who are these Donors?

The Gates Foundation has been set up by Bill Gates, a Zionist Jew, to promote the Zionist Jewish agenda, which is the same as the Illuminati´s agenda. Their agenda includes a vast reduction in the population of the world, including the United States, by war, pandemic disease and famine.

The Rockefeller Foundation has the SAME agenda as the Illuminati and
the Gates Foundation. David Rockefeller, a member of the Illuminati, is a founder and member of several organizations such as the Trilateral
Commission, The Bilderbergers and the Club of Rome, whose purpose is to

a) set up a One World Government,

b) control ALL business throughout the
world and,
c) dramatically and rapidly reducing the population of the world from 6 billion to 500 million, by war, disease and famine. (Verification for this
is readily available on the internet and in many fully referenced books.)

The Oracle Corporation

Oracle´s CEO is Lawrence Joseph Ellison who is identified as a Jew on
the Oracle Corporation website. His biography on that web site states that
"Larry Ellison was born out of wedlock to a 19-year-old mother, and raised by her aunt. Oracle Corporation went public in 1986 and was on the verge of
bankruptcy by 1990 when it was revealed that its revenues had been "overstated" for several years. . .Ellison´s net worth dropped about 3 1/2 BILLION after September 11, as stocks plummeted and Oracle stock lost almost 50% of its value."

It certainly is curious how a little boy, born in the Bronx to a 19 year
old single girl could, before the age of 50, amass a fortune large enough to
LOSE 3 1/2 BILLION dollars!

The Nuclear Threat Initiative

The Nuclear Threat Initiative is run by Ted Turner who is infamous for wanting to eliminate a large majority of the world´s population.

So there we have it. If we´re going to evaluate ProMed/ISID, we must
realize that its funding (and therefore its control) comes from groups, all
of which have the goal of depopulating the earth.

How can we believe anything that comes from ProMed/ISID? Most certainly
they would want to promote a Pandemic by propaganda! Nothing could please
them more.

Also, anything that comes from the Zionist Jewish-controlled commercial
media must be highly suspect!

Others who regularly Post "Bird Flu" Information on the Internet

Two others who regularly post information on "Bird Flu" on the web are:
Henry Niman, Ph.D., and a woman with the internet name of Patricia Doyle.

In order to assess the veracity of any individual who posts information on the web or who speaks as an expert, it is necessary to be able to verify
their qualifications.

Henry Niman, Ph.D.

Henry Niman received his Ph.D. at the University of Southern California in 1978 and took a post doctoral position at Scripps Clinic and Research Foundation, according to his website. His qualifications are verifiable.
He is the Founder and President of Recombinomics, Inc., a company that,
monitors viral recombination, a process that can be used to enhance vaccine
development and allow vaccines to be prepared before viruses emerge," according to his web site, www.recombinomics.com.

Since Dr. Niman´s company is heavily involved with the vaccine industry,
and therefore, would significantly benefit financially from a "Bird Flu"
pandemic, he certainly could have a real conflict of interest in the "Bird flu" situation. Much of the information he posts would be very difficult, if not impossible, to verify, as the cases of supposed "Bird Flu" come from obscure, tiny towns and villages - the smallest "nooks and crannies" on the globe.

How does he get this information?

Where does he get this information?

What are his sources?

It has been over two months now since I e-mailed him, asking him those
questions, and to date I have received no response!

Patricia Doyle

Patricia Doyle (she admits that this is not her real name) chooses to remain a mystery. She uses the initials Ph.D. and D.V.M. after her name but she refuses to state where or when she received those degrees. I have e-mailed her directly asking for that information and she has refused to divulge it.

But she has admitted that she has NOT completed her Ph.D., yet she continues to use those initials after her name. This is Scientific Fraud!

She will not state WHERE she received her degrees!

She will not state WHEN she received her degrees!

She will not give her real name.!

This is totally unacceptable in the scientific world, and is insulting
to the general public.

Why would anyone, especially a "professed" professional person,
withhold this information unless she is deliberately lying about her qualifications and whether or not she actually holds these degrees.

Apparently she has shared some of this information with one individual
who is not in the scientific world. But again, none of the information
can be verified.

Until she comes clean and answers these questions for the entire public,
she has no right to be considered an expert of ANY kind, nor should she have
a forum on which to espouse her comments.

Her belligerence in deliberately withholding this information from the
public, coupled with her promotion of the information on the (Illuminati/Zionist-Jewish-funded) ProMed/ISID website raises serious questions about the possibility that she is an infiltrator and a Zionist-backed disinformation agent.

So how can anyone believe anything she says?

So, How DO We Find Truth?

You may ask, "How can we believe anything? How do we make a judgment
on what is really going on?" The answer is, we can learn to evaluate what they are saying about this supposed "pandemic" in the following ways:

1) The media and the New World Order/Zionist Jewish cabal are using
all sorts of hyperbole when discussing this "Bird flu," exaggerations that
are in no way warranted. (When something is REALLY going on, such as Mad Cow Disease – or AIDS, especially in the 90´s – the government was/is covering up and down-playing the truth on both issues.)

2. As mentioned above, the incidence of "Bird flu" in Asia (even if
we could believe their figures) is 1 in 54 MILLION – hardly what one would
call a "Pandemic"!

3. Even with ALL their efforts, the Illuminati/Zionist Jewish cabal was not able to propagandize the public enough to get them to believe the lies about SARS! So they had to create, out of thin air – "Bird" Flu – which is nothing more than SARS "with wings."

Now they can have this "disease" flying all over the world, wherever they
want it to land (and how convenient to have it land in countries that are the enemies of the Zionist Jews, such as the Arab/Muslim nations of Indonesia, Bali, Iraq, Iran, and the City of Mecca, just in time for the Muslim pilgrimage, and in countries like Turkey and Korea who are both causing political problems for Israel and it´s subsidiary – the United
States.

Isn´t it amazing that the birds infected with "Bird Flu" seem to gravitate to the countries identified by George W. Bush as the "Axis of Evil!"?

SARS (remember, it has exactly the same symptoms as "Bird flu") wasn´t able to travel fast enough from country to country to create the "world-wide
pandemic" the Illuminati had planned, so they had to come up with something
with wings! Voila! - - - Bird Flu! SARS with wings!

4. The commercial media is pushing the propaganda of "Bird Flu" about as hard as any propaganda I have ever seen them promote, including the prospect of forced vaccinations. The greatest Weapon of Mass Destruction they can use on this country or any other country is mandatory vaccinations, vaccines that will contain the bacteria and viruses of multiple horrific diseases (a Super Vaccine containing numerous isease-causing live viruses and bacteria - something the CDC already admits they are developing) to be forced on EVERYONE!

Then the Illuminati will be absolutely sure to produce the Pandemic"
they desire, when billions succumb to the very diseases contained in the
vaccine injection they received!

5. Real and dangerous diseases like AIDS and Mad Cow Disease, are purposely down-played and covered up by the government, even though they will eventually kill millions, and possibly billions, of people in the U.S.
as well as many other countries.

But when a government purposely advertises, promotes, and exaggerates a
disease, you can be sure that it´s fake!

Why Would the U.S. Government and the U.N. Perpetuate this HOAX on America and the World?

Answer: Look who benefits – and How!

1. Follow the Money: Imagine the profits from forced vaccinations
for every person around the globe!

Followed by huge profits for the
medical/industrial complex from drugs used for treatment, hospitalizations,
physician costs, laboratory costs, and medical personnel to enforce quarantines! The pharmaceutical, vaccine-producing, and other medically
related corporations are owned by the very same people (or their close
associates) who run the world. (See 1) Bilderberg Profits from Bird Flu,

Put Up $1 Billion To Fight Bird

I have received numerous e-mails from Stock Market Investment companies,
showing how an investor can make huge profits on the coming "Bird flu"
pandemic!

2. Power and Control: Any individual, group, state or nation that, in any way, resists the formation of a One World Government, can be quarantined, embargoed, or imprisoned. The Rulers of the world can stifle or annihilate ALL dissent.

3. De-population of the world: So the world can belong solely to the rich few who rule in tyranny. They have already begun the de-population the
earth by:

War, in almost every country around the globe

Abortion, and its #1 promoter - Planned Parenthood

Infanticide – Soon to come

Euthanasia – physician-assisted suicide, of the elderly and those who
are ill

Terminator seeds – Seeds that produce fruit that does not, in turn, produce seeds (such as "seedless" watermelons). These initial seeds have been patented by the mega-corporations, so the farmer must buy new seeds every year rather than being able to save seeds from his own harvest. In addition, the farmer can only purchase the seeds
