“Have you read the bill? It is a full police state bill. Your body is now owned by the state. Your children are owned by the state. Your blood, sperm, ovaries, all reproductive methods are owned by the state. Your organs are owned by the state. This is a Nazi Eugenics bill with full bailout financing to the federal reserve front companies (big insurance).” Post by “Sane” to the Prison Planet Forums, March 22, 2010.

Many anti-government extremists have lately begun projecting their own feelings on the broader American public. “So how long before Americans riot?” asked “reddog801” on the Prison Planet Forums on March 21.

This is ridiculous, of the millions of anti-governement corruption messages on internet, they chose only a few from the most credible websites; websites with the most essential information about the New World Order conspiracy.

You can go in the comment section of the NY Times and you'll find similar comments than the one posted by Sane, which does not promote violence in any way.

Anyone with half a brain can expect riots from this financial meltdown, I don't know why they picked on Reddog, he is asking a question, not suggesting violence. He certainly isn't an Anti-governement extremist, if such a thing even exist.

People writing documents like this are insanely scrupulous: They share the responsibility for the killing of a million of innocents in Iraq and still think they're the good guys. Hard to believe, they demonstrate what it is to be a total loser; how low someone will sellout for the system no matter how corrupted and brutal it is.

The truth is simple: The Anti-Defamation League are the extremists: they generalize with weak pseudo-intellectual essays and display a level of ignorance and paranoia typical of agents in denial of the corrupted system they work for. They are attacking a bunch of innocent people without regards to their freedom of speech. They showcase the arrogance of judging people who have never committed a crime.

All of this is related to the anti-American Patriot Act and their anger for Prisonplanet exposing the truth behind 9/11.

They took my statement completely out of context and did not pay attention to what the topic was and why I asked the above question. The second half of that statement was "How long before there is civil unrest?" - Thanks ADL for taking my statement out of context and including me amongst the "anti government" ground. I've never once said that I am anti government, but I do speak out against a government that is out to hurt it's people. The people are what matter not big government and definatly not this barry government.


AND BY THE WAY I AM NOT AT ALL CONCERNED ABOUT THE ADL AND THEM TAKING MY COMMENT. I CAN PROVE WITHOUT A DOUPT WHAT WAS SAID AND HOW IT WAS MEANT IF THEY REALLY WANT TO GO THERE. COME AND GET ME.

This is one reason I am not a fan of titles getting changed on post. I don't want to have to defend myself against something I did not post.

With that said this is BS. Most of the comments were not that extreme or threatening. Maybe there needs to be a lists of all the violent threats on sites against anyone supporting the Constitution.

What a fking joke, they take a totally warped comment from a alias posting in a forum, and then use it to smear libertarians, and cast light as extremists.

They don't even recognize that the alias posting about Barrack Obama as the 'anti-christ' is most like rhetorical speech mean't to cast him in a negative light and does not even consider that the alias wasn't even attempting to make the direct connection.

These clowns are truly desparate if that is how low they have to go to chuck mud, I think their going to get more mud on themselves doing this than anything.

I would not worry about it. They are a bunch of pathetic losers who, on the frustration of never getting to accomplish anything of interest to society, will find pleasure in exploiting the innocents. All done on the behalf of the fascists to whom they are subjugated.

They do not want to understand that all we want is Peace and Justice, nothing else.

They live in an alternate reality where the Patriot Act and other unconstitutional bills actually mean something.
All they deserve from you is the finger. Do not give them any attention - they are worthless idiots.
Their BS is out of line, it is not respectable.

that was one of the tamest posts I ever made? wtf, do they even read all of the stuff I post?

ADL, I am a moron, I get 10 things wrong a day, minimum. How do you know that post was not one of the wrong ones? And is there a rebuttal of the post? is it thorough? I have no credibility whatsoever and just plaigerize everything i post. A 10 minute search on my posts will reveal that i contradict myself often, have so many typing errors and semantic errors i am amazed anyone can make sense out of my ramblings, and the idea of including me in some report exposes how much money you guys waste in your research arm. but i digress.

wow, well let's just take a look at who ADL is...

Dope, Inc.: http://www.scribd.com/doc/23840922/Dope-Inc-Britain-s-Opium-War-against-the-U-S
Associated links to Dope, Inc.: http://www.whale.to/b/dopeinc_q.html
Dope, Inc. is also East India and West India Trading Company (Norm Coleman-Wake Up America): http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=170819614143019768



Someone should investigate Abe Foxman's relation with Maddoff and why they helped Madoff steal all the Weisenthal coffers.





The Anti-Defamation League:

Dope, Inc.'s Public Relations Firm




http://lyndonlarouche.org/dope13.pdf

In 1979, only a few months after the publication of the first
edition of Dope, Inc., a scurrilous attack on the book and its
authors appeared in a local Philadelphia Jewish newspaper.
The weekly charged that Dope, Inc.'s identification of the now
deceased Meyer Lansky as the kingpin for the syndicate's dope
operation in the United States, was an "anti-Semitic" attack
on a great Jewish philanthropist. The source of this "infor
mation" was the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) ofB'Nai B'Rith.
This was not a case of the ADL merely getting overzealous
in its purported dedication to counter defamatory attacks on
Jewish people in the United States. On the contrary, the Anti
Defamation League was established for the express purpose of
defending not members of the Jewish faith, but the mob.
Protecting the names of criminals was the ADL's preoccu
pation from the very beginning. In the first decade of this cen
tury, New York Police Commissioner Thomas Bingham, with
his assistant Lt. Joseph Petrosino, was heading up a highly
effective investigation into the criminal gangs of New York
City. Bingham and Petrosino had dug up evidence showing
that the mob was closely interlinked with terrorists and an
archists centered around Emma Goldman and her Henry Street
Settlement House. In 1901, Petrosino forewarned the Secret
Service of a New York City-based plot on the life of President
William McKinley, run out of the Goldman networks. The Se
cret Service ignored the warning, and McKinley was soon as
sassinated by one of Goldman's anarchists.

In conjunction with Italian authorities, Bingham and Petro
sino put enough heat on the mobs in New York to force Johnny
Torrio-AI Capone's uncle and the man who would pull to
gether Dope, Inc.'s national syndicate for more efficient drug
and dope distribution-to hightail it out of New York to Chi
cago.

Suddenly, in 1908, Bingham found himself the target of at
tacks that he was "anti-Semitic." The source: a publicity com
mittee for the London-based Jewish arm of Freemasonry, formed
that year. The committee charged that Bingham, by going after
Jewish mobsters, as well as the Italian and Irish gangs, was
"maligning Jews." Within a year, the attacks on Bingham, in
combination with a campaign against him by the city's so-called
Reform Movement, forced his ouster from the New York Police
Department.

In the spring of 1909, during the height of the frameup of
Bingham, Lt. Petrosino traveled to Italy to set up a liaison
between the New York police and the police authorities in Italy.
He brought back with him dossiers on several hundred Mafia
leaders to build cases for their extradition back to Italy. But
in March, while in Sicily, Petrosino was murdered by Don Vito
Cascio Ferro-then chief ofthe Sicilian Mafia-whose descen
dants today include the drug-running Gambino family.

With Petrosino and Bingham removed from the scene, Don
Vito's criminal operations expanded unimpeded in the United
States. There were other beneficiaries: the fast-growing crim
inal network ofArnold Rothstein, the son of a dry goods whole-"
saler who would make the U.S. connection with Britain's dope
trade in the Far East, and who would become the patron for
mob partners Lucky Luciano and Meyer Lansky.

What was this public relations committee that had so con
veniently smeared Bingham as "anti-Semitic"? It was formed
and chaired by a Bavarian-born corporate attorney from Chi
cago, Sigmund Livingston, as the public relations committee
for the Jewish branch offreemasonry. By 1913, it had dropped
its public association with freemasonry to become the Anti
Defamation League of B'Nai B'Rith.

Livingston had strange credentials for heading up an orga
nization supposedly dedicated to combatting anti-Semitism. In
his book Must Men Hate? Livingston favorably quotes as an
expert on anti-Semitism, Count Heinrich Coudenhove-Kalergi.
Coudenhove-Kalergi was a blueshirt fascist ideologue for the
Hapsburg family, who was backed by Winston Churchill et al.
when the British ended their love-affair with Adolf Hitler, and
whose expertise on anti-semitism had been gained through
experience in the trade. Adolph Kraus, the Chicago-based in
ternational president of B'Nai B'Rith during the ADL's crea
tion, was also, like Livingston, a Hapsburg loyalist. Although
Jewish, Kraus was close enough to the anti-Semitic Hapsburgs
to be inducted into their Order of Saint Francis.

Dope, Inc.'s Anti-Defamation League

The ADL is a wholly owned and operated subsidiary for Brit
ain's Dope, Inc. It has never functioned as anything else. The
mob and the ADL are there to perform the services which the
dope trade's top-echelon controllers would never dirty their
hands with.

There is evidence to show, for example, that even in its in
ception, the ADL was less the baby ofJewish freemasonry than
it was of anglophile Morgan interests ensconced in the United
States. When Livingston formed the ADL out of the Chicago
B'Nai B'Rith Lodge #6, he was a prominent corporate attorney,
one of whose clients was William Moore's Chicago and Alton
Railway. Although Moore had become a successful "robber
baron" in the 18908, he became important only after he had
hitched his interests to those of J. P. Morgan and U.S. Steel.

The current base for the Moore family is the Nabisco Corpo
ration. Moore's grandson, also named William, is today the
chairman of the Morgan-controlled Bankers Trust, and is on
the board of Morgan's IBM.

- The Moores are the biggest funders of the Anti-Defamation
League today. Moore's Bankers Trust has more members of its
board listed as ADL contributors than any other corporation
in the United States.

There is also evidence that the Moores, and the anglophile
networks they hook into, make many of the arrangements for
the day-to-day deployment of the ADL. Along with Canon Ed
ward West, Bishop Paul Moore, Jr., another grandson of old
William, presides over the Episcopalian Cathedral of St. John
the Divine in New York City. The Cathedral is not only the
stateside control center for British intelligence, it is the U.S.
headquarters for the British Knights of St. John ofJerusalem,
one ofthe highest-level control points for the British dope cartel.

Canon West has been instrumental in deploying the ADL on
dirty-tricks operations against Lyndon LaRouche his associ
ates. When probed on this point by an undercover investigator,
West responded: "We're going to send the Jews after LaRouche."
Immediately afterward, the ADL's "anti-Semitic" smear cam
paign against LaRouche escalated.

The Anti-Nazi Game

In March 1978, James Rosenberg, a.k.a. Jimmy Mitchell, was
implicated in a plot to provoke the Pennsylvania Confederation
of Independent Orders of the Invisible Empire of the Knights
of the KKK, or CIOIE, to bomb the Trenton, New Jersey, head
quarters ofthe NAACP. Four months later, Rosenberg-Mitchell
was named by right-wing sources as the key figure orches
trating a clash between KKK and "anti-Klan" forces in James
burg, New Jersey. It was found that Rosenberg-Mitchell had
infiltrated himself as an agent provocateur into the Jewish
Defense League, the left-wing Progressive Labor Party, and
the International Committee Against Racism.

Rosenberg-Mitchell was also a self-admitted paid agent of
the ADL, working under the ADL's Fact-Finding Division di
rected by Irwin Suall and Justin Finger.

Rosenberg's case is only one ofmany that have come to light,
in which the ADL has sent its own agents to infiltrate racist
or neo-Nazi organizations and act as provocateurs. Today the
ADL directs wholesale numbers ofneo-Nazi groups and sections
of the KKK-the idea being that attacks upon Jews will give
a boost to the ADL.

This underhanded use of anti-Semitism itself began when
the ADL-having moved its headquarters to New York City
in 1933-was incorporated as an asset of William "Intrepid"
Stephenson's British Special Operations Executive (SOE), when
Stephenson moved his operation to the United States in 1938
as part of British intelligence's "special relationship" with U.S.
intelligence. Stephenson's first mission was to get the United
States into the war-not so much against the Nazis but behind
the British Empire, and to secondarily sink British intelligence's
hooks deeper into the wartime and postwar American
intelligence community.

To prod the U.S. into the war, Stephenson set about the
infiltrate, take over, and in some cases create, U.S. Nazi, pro
Nazi, and Nazi-labeled organizations. Stephenson's provoca
teurs would then direct these organizations to praise opponents
of Britain, for example, thereby smearing Britain's opponents
with a Nazi label.

At the same time, Stephenson and the ADL created various
organizations to combat Nazism, the most important of which
was the World Non-Sectarian Anti-Nazi Council to Champion
Human Rights, which in the United States was called the Non
Sectarian Anti-Nazi League. At the top, the organization sported
on its board of directors such notables as King Leopold of Bel
gium, Fiorello LaGuardia, and Sidney Hillman, president of
the Amalgamated Clothing Workers. The ADL manned the
staff.

One member of that staff was Dorothy Kahn Wurzburger,
a.k.a. Dorothy Waring, Mary Garffney, and Charlotte Snowden
Meade. Wurzburger was the director of the Anti-Nazi League's
"Fact-Finding Division." A British agent who said she was
never afraid to "lose what is most dear to a woman," Wurz
burger had ghost-authored books for Otto von Hapsburg, and
had been the wife of a member of Hitler's high command. In
fact, she had been so close to Hitler herselfthat she was named
in 1933 as the chief beneficiary on Hitler's Lloyds of London
insurance policy. She was also the author ofLife and Loves aof
a Woman Spy, and of Where Now Little Jew? the latter called
one of the most viciously anti-Semitic books ever produced.
Another staff member was Irving Rothberg, a.k.a. Alexander
Redlick, L. K. Roller, and Col. Richard Collins. His specialty
was infiltration ofNazis and others into opponent organizations
to Stephenson. During the 1936 national election campaign,
Rothberg was hired as the investigator for un-American activ
ities for the New York State Democratic Committee, where he
used the skills cultivated by Stephenson and the ADL. Just
before election day, the New York World Telegram headlined
one of his stories: "U.S. Nazi Attack on Jews Laid to Repub
licans.

Through the years 1932 through 1945, the ADL worked closely
with Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau, Jr., father ofMan
hattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau. Among Morgen
thau's stable of operatives was George Mintzer, the director of
criminal investigations ofthe U.S. Southern District Attorney's
Office from 1926 to 1931. In 1933, Mintzer was using his private
law offices to house the ADL's intelligence files. By the war's
end, these files reportedly listed the names ofover 32,000 Amer
icans whom the ADL accused ofsubversion. Mintzer's files were
made available to the Office of Naval Intelligence, the State
Separtment, the FBI, and to Stephenson's SOE.

Irwin Sua

It was during the war years, when the ADL was firmly under
the arm of Stephenson's SOE, that the ADL picked up Irwin
Suall, who now heads of the League's "Fact-Finding Division."
He is a leading figure in the U.S. branch of the Socialist In
ternational, and is a member of the National Committee ofthe
Social Democrats, USA; the Workers Defense League; and the
board of directors of the League for Industrial Democracy.
Suall first rubbed shoulders with British Secret Intelligence
circles during the war, while working as an organizer for the
Young People's Socialist League in the merchant marine. He
career training for placement in the Socialist network began
in 1948, when he was awarded a scholarship from the Trans
atlantic Foundation to attend the guild-socialist Ruskin Labor
College in Oxford, England. The College was a training ground
for radical socialists, listing among its graduates Max Eastman,
James Burnham, and Frank Meyer, all of them Comintern or
Socialist leaders during the 1920s and 1930s who would later
co-found William Buckley's National Review.

On his return from Oxford, Suall was hired by the Inter
national Ladies Garment Workers Union run by David Dubin
sky. In 1961, while Suall was serving as national secretary for
the Socialist Party, he ran a campaign to defame Ronald Rea
gan, then an employee of General Electric who made the com
pany's motto "Progress Is Our Most Important Product" famous
to all Americans. Suall authored a pamphlet, called "The Amer
ican Ultras: the Extreme Right and the Military-Industrial
Complex," in which he vituperatively attacked President Ei
senhower and other ranking military leaders.

Operation Underworld

Once the United States had entered World War IT, the Anti
Defamation League helped carry out an operation that was
crucial to building Dope, Inc.'s $100 billion trade in the United
States: Operation Underworld.

In March 1942, a meeting took place at the Manhattan Dis-
trict Attorney's office. In attendance were District Attorney
Frank Hogan, several officials ofthe Office ofNaval Intelligence
(a stronghold of Stephenson's SOE), and Murray Gurfein, Ho
gan's top assistant and head ofthe rackets division. The agenda
item was how to establish contact with, and deploy the mob for
wartime purposes. The meeting decided that Gwfein, who would
later become an official of the ADL and an official U.S. intel
ligence agent stationed in Britain, would be the key liaison
between the DA's office and Naval Intelligence, and to the mob.

The meeting had been held as a consequence of a plan set
into motion as early as 1940 by Lt. Commander Charles Rad
cliffe Haffenden, who directed the B-3 (mob unit) of Naval
Intelligence in New York. Before resuming active duty in 1940,
Haffenden had been an executive with the Moore family's Na
bisco. Haffenden's assignment, Operation Underworld, was to
organize cooperation between the mob and the Allied powers
for the planned invasion of Sicily. But the main aim, and major
effect ofOperation Underworld, was to reshape organized crime
for postwar use-to the benefit of the same crew the ADL had
run the PR for in 1908 and continues to protect today.

Gurfein had little trouble in making contact with the mob.

Within a couple of weeks, he had recruited Joseph "Socks"
Lanza, the waterfront mobster who ran the Fulton Fish Market,
and had opened up the docks to Naval Intelligence and Ste
phenson's SOE.

By April 1942, Haffenden himself, through Gurfein, was in
contact with Charles "Lucky" Luciano, Lansky's partner. Haf
fenden projected that Luciano, then in the New York state
Dannemora Penitentiary, would yield control of the Sicilian
mafia in exchange for a deal for early probation. Luciano agreed.

It had not been hard to link up with Luciano. Gurfein had
simply spoken to Moses Polakoff, the former head of the crim
inal division of the U.S. Attorney's Office where he had made
a name for himself as a "crimebuster." Then Polakoff left gov
ernment service to become the attorney for both Luciano and
Lansky. Polakoffs career points to a "special relationship" that
has never been broken, between active and former officials of
the U.S. Attorney's Office, sections ofthe FBI, and other crime
busting entities, and the Lansky-Luciano gang.

April 1942 began Meyer Lansky's official employment by
British and American intelligence, but Lansky's coordination
with these authorities goes back much further, with the ADL
playing a crucial role.

Both Luciano and Lansky had been proteges of mobster Ar
nold Rothstein, the man who had been given the British fran
chise into the Hong Kong dope trade to the United States. Two
years later, Luciano and Lansky directed a top-down reorgan
ization ofthe mob, clearing out the "Mustache Petes" and plac
ing control of much of the centralized crime infrastructure in
the hands of Dope, Inc. The 1931 mass executions of Salvatore
Maranzaro and 40 other top mobsters had paved the way for
the Luciano-Lansky power grab.

By 1935 at the latest, Lansky was directly offering his ser
vices to the ADL and its friends. In that year, Rabbi Stephen
Wise, a Cincinnati official ofthe World Jewish Congress, asked
Lansky to organize violent assaults against Nazi-style "Bund
ist" organizations in the New York area. Lansky agreed. Fur
ther down the road in his career, Lansky became one of the
major fundraisers for the United Jewish Appeal, and a major
funder for the ADL itself.

Lansky has another connection to the ADL. In 1929, his
lieutenant Frank Erickson, whom Lansky had inherited from
Arnold Rothstein, set up the Sterling National Bank. The bank
was the service center for the mob's operations in the garment
center, in part run through the unions like Suall and Dubin
sky's ILGWU. Sterling is also the bank for the ADL, with a
board of directors nearly indistinguishable from it.

From Operation Underworld to Appalachin
As a result of Haffenden's deal with Luciano, the mafia bOBS
was moved from Dannemora to Great Meadows prison, where
he was given special visiting privileges. Lansky, Frank Cos
tello, Joe Adonis, and Polakoff would visit Luciano's prison
office to lay plans for the entire East Coast mafia. Between
spring 1942 and the end of the war, Luciano, Lansky, and
company, while they reorganized the docks for Naval Intelli
gence, directed the execution of over 30 major waterfront fig
ures.

When the Allies were ready for the invasion of Sicily, Haf
fenden was put in charge of dealing with the Mafia. Lansky
began sending Haffenden a stream of Sicilian mafiosi and Ital
ian freemasons, all of whom went to work for Naval Intelli
gence. One of Lansky's closest collaborators in Sicily was the
son of Don Vito Cascio Ferro, the criminal who had "rubbed
out" anti-mob investigator Lt. Petrosino.

Second in command of the OSS in Italy and working with
Haffenden was Norman Newhouse, a member of the national
committee of the ADL. Today, the Newhouse family, which
runs the newspaper chain ofthe same name, is the central ADL
family in New Orleans. Since the civil rights era, according to
intelligence sources, the New Orleans chapter of the ADL,
headed by Adolph Botnick, has been a conduit for contracting
hits by the mob.

After the war, the top-down control of the mob passed from
Naval Intelligence to the New York Waterfront Commission.
The Waterfront Commission was given power to license hear
ings, grant immunity, conduct criminal investigations, and ex
ercise broad police powers. It was dominated by the same Naval
Intelligence-ADL interface that had run Operation Under
world:

• Joseph Kaitz, "Mr. Waterfront," who had been in Naval
Intelligence and was Haffenden's chief B-3 liaison to Lansky
and Adonis;

• Paul Alfieri, another B-3 man on the Commission;

• Justin Finger, top investigator for the Commission, who
today is chairman of the ADL's Civil Rights Division which
oversees ADL intelligence.

The Commission used its powers to go after the International
Longshoremen's Association and the Teamsters on the docks,
while handing more control over the docks to the Lansky mafia.
In 1957, the New York State Governor's State Investigations

Committee was set up, to specialize in attacking police de
partments for alleged corruption. Its most spectacular action
was the discovery and arrest of nearly 50 mafia leaders at
tending a secret planning meeting in Appalachin, New York.
Present was every major syndicate family leader in the country
save one-Meyer Lansky. One of the chief investigators re
sponsible for the raid: the ADL's future intelligence officer,
Justin Finger.

The stronger Lansky's power in Dope, Inc.'s national drug
syndicate grew, the more the ADL and its executive board
members became thoroughly co-opted in the dirty-money-Iaun
dering side of the operation. From Sterling National Bank, to·
the American Bank and Trust, to Robert Vesco, the ADL is in
the thick of the dirty-money scams Dope, Inc. requires to laun
der billions of dollars of dope money each year. The task of
cleaning up drugs in the United States, and of politically de
stroying the Anti-Defamation League, is one and the same
thing.

Foxman Fever Doesn’t Discriminate
Good Fences
http://www.forward.com/articles/125423/
By J.J. Goldberg
Published February 10, 2010, issue of February 19, 2010.


With the Academy Awards almost upon us, Oscar Fever is running high. And, in a rare confluence of circumstances, it’s colliding with a more exotic virus, one that might be called Foxman Fever.

Some observers have been struck by the fact that three of the 10 Best Picture nominees this year have an intensely Jewish focus. Especially striking is that none of the three films is particularly flattering to Jews. “Inglourious Basterds” portrays Jewish GIs gleefully slaughtering Nazis. “A Serious Man” depicts rabbis as blathering fools. Most controversially, “An Education” tells of a 16-year-old girl seduced by an unscrupulous Jewish businessman. A few reviewers have called “An Education” outright antisemitic.

And this is where Oscar Fever collides with Foxman Fever. Los Angeles Times entertainment blogger Patrick Goldstein, in a February 3 post, noted that “all sorts of smart folks” were untroubled by these films’ Jewish imagery, including historian Neal Gabler and media scholar Howard Suber. Then Goldstein delivers his coup de grace: “Even Anti-Defamation League national director Abraham Foxman supports ‘An Education.’”

What Goldstein means, of course, is that if Abe Foxman doesn’t see antisemitism, it isn’t there. He doesn’t bother spelling this out, since it’s presumably clear to most thinking Americans — at least the “smart folks” among us — that Foxman is the country’s most prolific antisemitism-spotter, the gevalt guy who sees Jew-haters under every bed and invents them if he can’t find them.

This view of Foxman as Chicken Little has gained near-universal currency, with the exception of Foxman’s most sworn admirers and adoring (and aging) donors. Journalist and author James Traub, a respected chronicler of societal trends, put forward this image of Foxman in a 2007 New York Times Magazine profile. In his telling, Foxman is “the hanging-judge of anti-Semitism,” an “anachronism” who continues to “harp on Jewish insecurity” in a world where Jews have become “the most widely admired religious group in America, as well as the most successful.” Portraying him as a blustering alarmist, Traub seemed bemused by Foxman’s warnings about “jihadist” antisemitism as a serious threat in today’s world and troubled by Foxman’s focus on “good for the Jews, bad for the Jews” to the exclusion of broader goals of “promoting tolerance and diversity.”

“Foxman upset many of his colleagues by extending a welcome to Christian conservatives, whose leaders tended to be strongly pro-Israel even as they spoke in disturbing terms of America’s ‘Christian’ identity,” Traub wrote. “Foxman was willing to cut them some slack on issues of social justice, and even of church-state relations, in the name of solidarity toward Israel.”

Similar themes are sounded by critics on all sides. Oddly, though, the critiques are constantly twisting around, mirroring and contradicting each other, sharing nothing but a certainty that Foxman is a loudmouthed bully. That’s Foxman Fever.

In recent months, for example, Republicans have been savaging Foxman for doing precisely what Traub accuses him of not doing: attacking right-wing extremists even when they support Israel. Last November, for example, Commentary editor Jonathan Tobin wrote that the ADL had “stepped over the line” and was trying to stifle criticism of the Obama administration with the publication of a report, “Rage Grows in America: Anti-Government Conspiracies,” which warned of anti-democratic tendencies and intolerance in far-right movements like the Tea Parties and in the rhetoric of media figures like Glenn Beck.

In January, Foxman drew more ire from the conservatives when he attacked Rush Limbaugh,a accusing him of “borderline anti-Semitic” stereotyping. Foxman had taken Limbaugh to task for saying that President Obama was “assaulting bankers. He’s assaulting money people. And a lot of those people on Wall Street are Jewish. So I wonder if there’s — if there’s starting to be some buyer’s remorse there.” In response, Norman Podhoretz claimed that Foxman “has a long history of seeing an anti-Semite under every conservative bed” and demanded that he “apologize for the defamatory accusation of anti-Semitism that he himself has hurled against so loyal a friend of Israel as Rush Limbaugh.”

Others on the right have been even harsher. Boston activist Charles Jacobs, founder of the David Project and Americans for Peace and Tolerance, recently called for a “second ADL” to battle radical Islam, accusing Foxman of “silence,” “PC-denial” and “timidity.” Allies have piled on, calling him “leftist,” “cowardly” and even “fetid.” One activist called for a class-action lawsuit by ADL donors to demand a new leadership.

The fact is that Foxman has been going after right and left alike with more or less equal gusto for decades, charging antisemitism when he thinks he sees it and publicly rejecting the charge when he thinks it’s unfounded, as he did with the Oscar nominees. He outraged the left in the 1990s by accepting Pat Robertson’s apology for using bigoted language, only to have Robertson accuse him in 2002 of shilling for the Democrats when he criticized a Robertson video with Christ-killer imagery. He alienated black leaders in the 1980s for blasting Jesse Jackson’s Hymietown-style language, and then angered the right when he publicly embraced Jackson as a friend in 1992.

In the end Foxman seems to embody for each critic whatever it is that the critic most dislikes about Jewish advocacy, whether for being too liberal or too conservative, too militant or too pragmatic. If he’s everyone’s target of choice, that’s largely because he’s the only Jewish communal spokesman that most Americans, Jewish or non-Jewish, have ever heard of. He’s constantly taking it on the chin because just about everybody seems to have some sort of beef with the Jewish community these days. Which proves either that Jews have truly arrived or that Foxman’s worst fears are coming true.

"Portents of doom"

ha ha. Well. Alex Jones is certainly worked up about something a lot of the time. The intro clip to his Youtube show videos has him saying "do you know how far along we are, how far down the line we already are".

shit this post is pretty funny when you look at it:

“Have you read the bill? It is a full police state bill. Your body is now owned by the state. Your children are owned by the state. Your blood, sperm, ovaries, all reproductive methods are owned by the state. Your organs are owned by the state. This is a Nazi Eugenics bill with full bailout financing to the federal reserve front companies (big insurance).”

I wonder if the ADL is concerned that the bill is an extension of the book Ecoscience which clearly explains everything I summarizaed? And also why isn't the ADL warning people that the book blames Jews and Christians for the problems on the planet:



‘Ecoscience’ blames Judeo-Christian religions for overpopulation, environmental destruction

RELATED: Ecoscience author, Obama Science Advisor Called For “Planetary Regime” To Enforce Totalitarian Population Control Measures
http://www.prisonplanet.com/obama-science-advisor-called-for-planetary-regime-to-enforce-totalitarian-population-control-measures.html

Here are excerpts from a chapter in ‘Ecoscience,’ the 1977 text co-authored by Paul Ehrlich, Anne Ehrlich and John P. Holdren, now Science Czar to the Obama Administration, which regards the conflicts between religious institutions and environmental/population issues. It goes so far as to quote ‘academics’ who blame the entire Judeo-Christian tradition, harkening back to an era of Pagan Animism where trees & streams were revered.

Judge for yourself, but the fact that this book is considered a "textbook" with at least some sense of neutrality or objectivism seems remarkable. Clearly there are some biased if not crackpot views spread throughout this tediously long volume…

For clarification, all direct passages are put in "quotes." All Infowars.com commentary will be prefaced by ‘commentary.’ Notes are short paraphrases or references to non-quoted passages in the text.

Religion in “Ecoscience” 1977 p. 806-813

“Religion, broadly defined, would include all the belief systems that allow Homo sapiens to achieve a sense of transcendence of self and a sense of the possession of a right and proper place in the universe and a right and proper way of life. In short, everyone wants to feel important and in tune with a right-ordered world.” P. 806

“With religion so broadly defined, political parties, labor unions, nation states, academic disciplines, and the organized structure of the environment-ecology movement would have to be counted among our religious institutions.” P. 806

-Notes controversy of Organized religion vs. population control
Commentary: Otherwise well-establish conflict with Catholic church on contraceptives
-Notes Pope Paul VI’s Humanae Vitae, 1968 and the resulting controversy, particularly for contraceptive proponents & activists

“Since its publication, the encyclical has caused immense anguish among Catholics, millions of whom have followed their consciences and used contraceptives, often after a period of intense soul-searching.”

Commentary: This can be read to imply that Catholics going against the Pope and using contraceptives stand on a higher moral ground, while it is for reasons of conscience that the Pope and other Catholics hold this view.

Ecoscience notes that the Pope received ‘almost universal ridicule’ at the 1974 World Food Conference in Rome.

Catholic biologist John H. Thomas of Stanford University (Ehrlich’s university) wrote in 1968:

“The Church must affirm that the birth rate must soon be brought in line with the death rate—i.e., a growth rate of zero. This is the responsibility of all people regardless of race or religion. The Church must recognize and state that all means of birth control are licit… (it) must put its concern for people, their welfare, and their happiness above its concern for doctrine, dogma, and canon law… It is time that the Church stop being like a reluctant little child, always needing to be dragged into the present.”

Commentary: If the Church "must" embrace ALL means of birth control, does this include abortion? Compulsory sterilization? and beyond?

“Except for the Roman Catholic church, all major Western religious groups had by 1970 officially sanctioned “artificial” contraception, although some continued to oppose liberal abortion policies.”


-Notes Protestant, Catholic and Jewish activity in promoting sex education in schools.
-Notes Methodist groups involvement in abortion-law reform in the U.S.

“Thus there is good reason to hope that organized Western religious groups may become a powerful force in working toward population control worldwide, especially as the human suffering caused by overpopulation becomes more widely recognized.” P. 808

-Notes some acceptance among Moslem countries for birth control, including Indonesia in 1960s

“For Westerners who favor population control one of the best courses of action seems to lie in working with the already established religious groups to change people’s attitudes toward population growth.” P. 809

Commentary: ‘working with the already established religious groups’ Does this equate to promoting individual leaders within religious groups who happen to agree with or accept Ecoscience’s view of proper population control (which, as other Ecoscience quotes demonstrate, includes forced abortions, taking babies from teen mothers, implantable birth control and licensed births), and excluding, shunning or discrediting religious leaders who don’t accept any/all population control?

Commentary: ‘Westerners who favor population control’—i.e. the Rockefeller Foundation, Population Council and other Robber Baron-funded NGOs, who have put forward the majority of funding for worldwide population control since the 1960s?

“Lynn White, Jr., professor emeritus of history at the University of California, Los Angeles, and past president of the American Historical Association, has suggested that the basic cause of Western society’s destructive attitude toward nature lies in the Judeo-Christian tradition. He pointed out, for instance, that before the Christian era, people believed trees, springs, hills, streams, and other objects of nature had guardian spirits. Those spirits had to be approached and placated before one could safely invade those territories: ‘By destroying pagan animism, Christianity made it possible to exploit nature in a mood of indifference to the feelings of natural objects.’” P. 809

Commentary: Thus, Western world’s roots in society established ‘dominating and exploiting’, and “rightful mastery over nature” is rooted in the Christian world view. This summary is over-generalized and appears aimed at demonizing Christianity and Western culture.

“Therefore, White claimed, it may be in vain that so many look to science and technology to solve our present ecological crisis:

‘Both our present science and our present technology are so tinctured with orthodox Christian arrogance toward nature that no solution for our ecologic crises can be expected from them alone. Since the roots of our trouble are so largely religious, the remedy must also be essentially religious, whether we call it that or not.”

Commentary: Conveniently, Ecoscience has already ‘broadly’ defined religion to include “political parties, labor unions, nation states, academic disciplines, and the organized structure of the environment-ecology movement”as ‘religious institutions.’ Thus a pseudo-religious environmental view or movement can be see as a viable ’solution.’ In some ways, the more that elements of Gaia worship, pagan animism or other forms of ‘Earth worship’ are incorporated, the more it can be billed (by the logic of this chapter) as a legitimate replacement to Judeo-Christian religious traditions.

Several objections to White’s thesis are noted.

Commentary: Lewis Moncrief of North Carolina State University also counts Western religion as a cause of the problem, but only one of many. He also counts “the Industrial revolution and democracy” for their role in “providing individual control over resources” (thus paving the way for a collective-authority solution) p. 810 Notably, Ecoscience and quoted-below academic Bertrand Russell both call for variations of a Planetary Authority to control births, a World Food Authority to control the distribution of food and otherwise views the necessity of a super-national authority to oversee environmental imperatives and restrictions to resources.

Commentary: Among the problems of religion, the Industrial revolution, democracy and the frontier-mentality in America is “faith in the abundance of resources and the bounty of nature.” Notice that this passage compliments the idea that de-industrialization of the Western world must take place (for the good of the Earth) P. 811 I suppose Judeo-Christians are also to be held accountable for Biblical-imperatives to "be fruitful and multiply" as this could lead to unauthorized child birth and population of the earth.

"Ecological Ethics: Many persons believe that an entirely new philosophy must now be developed—one based on ecological realities. Such a philosophy—and the ethics based upon it—would be antihumanist and against Judeo-Christian tradition in the sense that it would not focus on human beings as an integral part of nature, as just one part of a much more comprehensive system… the extreme anthropocentricism of thinkers like Karl Marx and John Dewey has been strongly attacked by, among others, Bertrand Russell. Russell, for example, pointed out Marx’s philosophical closeness to classical Judeo-Christian thought.” P. 811-812

Commentary: Bertrand Russell is not against the authoritarian collectivism of Marxism, as perhaps the informed free peoples of the world would be, his objection is that Marxism is too closely related to Judeo-Christian’s central-man viewpoint…

Obama Science Advisor Called For “Planetary Regime” To Enforce Totalitarian Population Control Measures

In 1977 book, John Holdren advocated forced abortions, mass sterilization through food and water supply and mandatory bodily implants to prevent pregnancies


http://www.prisonplanet.com/obama-science-advisor-called-for-planetary-regime-to-enforce-totalitarian-population-control-measures.html
Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet.com
Saturday, July 11, 2009

President Obama’s top science and technology advisor John P. Holdren co-authored a 1977 book in which he advocated the formation of a “planetary regime” that would use a “global police force” to enforce totalitarian measures of population control, including forced abortions, mass sterilization programs conducted via the food and water supply, as well as mandatory bodily implants that would prevent couples from having children.

The concepts outlined in Holdren’s 1977 book Ecoscience, which he co-authored with close colleagues Paul Ehrlich and Anne Ehrlich, were so shocking that a February 2009 Front Page Magazine story on the subject was largely dismissed as being outlandish because people couldn’t bring themselves to believe that it could be true.

It was only when another Internet blog obtained the book and posted screenshots that the awful truth about what Holdren had actually committed to paper actually began to sink in.

This issue is more prescient than ever because Holdren and his colleagues are now at the forefront of efforts to combat “climate change” through similarly insane programs focused around geoengineering the planet. As we reported in April, Holdren recently advocated “Large-scale geoengineering projects designed to cool the Earth,” such as “shooting pollution particles into the upper atmosphere to reflect the sun’s rays,” which many have pointed out is already occurring via chemtrails.

Ecoscience discusses a number of ways in which the global population could be reduced to combat what the authors see as mankind’s greatest threat – overpopulation. In each case, the proposals are couched in sober academic rhetoric, but the horrifying foundation of what Holdren and his co-authors are advocating is clear. These proposals include;

- Forcibly and unknowingly sterilizing the entire population by adding infertility drugs to the nation’s water and food supply.



- Legalizing “compulsory abortions,” ie forced abortions carried out against the will of the pregnant women, as is common place in Communist China where women who have already had one child and refuse to abort the second are kidnapped off the street by the authorities before a procedure is carried out to forcibly abort the baby.



- Babies who are born out of wedlock or to teenage mothers to be forcibly taken away from their mother by the government and put up for adoption. Another proposed measure would force single mothers to demonstrate to the government that they can care for the child, effectively introducing licensing to have children.



- Implementing a system of “involuntary birth control,” where both men and women would be mandated to have an infertility device implanted into their body at puberty and only have it removed temporarily if they received permission from the government to have a baby.



- Permanently sterilizing people who the authorities deem have already had too many children or who have contributed to “general social deterioration”.



- Formally passing a law that criminalizes having more than two children, similar to the one child policy in Communist China.



- This would all be overseen by a transnational and centralized “planetary regime” that would utilize a “global police force” to enforce the measures outlined above. The “planetary regime” would also have the power to determine population levels for every country in the world.



The quotes from the book are included below. We also include comments by the author of the blog who provided the screenshots of the relevant passages. Screenshots of the relevant pages and the quotes in their full context are provided at the end of the excerpts. The quotes from the book appear as text indents and in bold. The quotes from the author of the blog are italicized.



Page 837: Compulsory abortions would be legal

“Indeed, it has been concluded that compulsory population-control laws, even including laws requiring compulsory abortion, could be sustained under the existing Constitution if the population crisis became sufficiently severe to endanger the society.”

As noted in the FrontPage article cited above, Holdren “hides behind the passive voice” in this passage, by saying “it has been concluded.” Really? By whom? By the authors of the book, that’s whom. What Holdren’s really saying here is, “I have determined that there’s nothing unconstitutional about laws which would force women to abort their babies.” And as we will see later, although Holdren bemoans the fact that most people think there’s no need for such laws, he and his co-authors believe that the population crisis is so severe that the time has indeed come for “compulsory population-control laws.” In fact, they spend the entire book arguing that “the population crisis” has already become “sufficiently severe to endanger the society.”

Page 786: Single mothers should have their babies taken away by the government; or they could be forced to have abortions

“One way to carry out this disapproval might be to insist that all illegitimate babies be put up for adoption—especially those born to minors, who generally are not capable of caring properly for a child alone. If a single mother really wished to keep her baby, she might be obliged to go through adoption proceedings and demonstrate her ability to support and care for it. Adoption proceedings probably should remain more difficult for single people than for married couples, in recognition of the relative difficulty of raising children alone. It would even be possible to require pregnant single women to marry or have abortions, perhaps as an alternative to placement for adoption, depending on the society.”

Holdren and his co-authors once again speculate about unbelievably draconian solutions to what they feel is an overpopulation crisis. But what’s especially disturbing is not that Holdren has merely made these proposals — wrenching babies from their mothers’ arms and giving them away; compelling single mothers to prove in court that they would be good parents; and forcing women to have abortions, whether they wanted to or not — but that he does so in such a dispassionate, bureaucratic way. Don’t be fooled by the innocuous and “level-headed” tone he takes: the proposals are nightmarish, however euphemistically they are expressed.

Holdren seems to have no grasp of the emotional bond between mother and child, and the soul-crushing trauma many women have felt throughout history when their babies were taken away from them involuntarily.

This kind of clinical, almost robotic discussion of laws that would affect millions of people at the most personal possible level is deeply unsettling, and the kind of attitude that gives scientists a bad name. I’m reminded of the phrase “banality of evil.”

Not that it matters, but I myself am “pro-choice” — i.e. I think that abortion should not be illegal. But that doesn’t mean I’m pro-abortion — I don’t particularly like abortions, but I do believe women should be allowed the choice to have them. But John Holdren here proposes to take away that choice — to force women to have abortions. One doesn’t need to be a “pro-life” activist to see the horror of this proposal — people on all sides of the political spectrum should be outraged. My objection to forced abortion is not so much to protect the embryo, but rather to protect the mother from undergoing a medical procedure against her will. And not just any medical procedure, but one which she herself (regardless of my views) may find particularly immoral or traumatic.

There’s a bumper sticker that’s popular in liberal areas which says: “Against abortion? Then don’t have one.” Well, John Holdren wants to MAKE you have one, whether you’re against it or not.

Page 787-8: Mass sterilization of humans though drugs in the water supply is OK as long as it doesn’t harm livestock

“Adding a sterilant to drinking water or staple foods is a suggestion that seems to horrify people more than most proposals for involuntary fertility control. Indeed, this would pose some very difficult political, legal, and social questions, to say nothing of the technical problems. No such sterilant exists today, nor does one appear to be under development. To be acceptable, such a substance would have to meet some rather stiff requirements: it must be uniformly effective, despite widely varying doses received by individuals, and despite varying degrees of fertility and sensitivity among individuals; it must be free of dangerous or unpleasant side effects; and it must have no effect on members of the opposite sex, children, old people, pets, or livestock.”

OK, John, now you’re really starting to scare me. Putting sterilants in the water supply? While you correctly surmise that this suggestion “seems to horrify people more than most proposals,” you apparently are not among those people it horrifies. Because in your extensive list of problems with this possible scheme, there is no mention whatsoever of any ethical concerns or moral issues. In your view, the only impediment to involuntary mass sterilization of the population is that it ought to affect everyone equally and not have any unintended side effects or hurt animals. But hey, if we could sterilize all the humans safely without hurting the livestock, that’d be peachy! The fact that Holdren has no moral qualms about such a deeply invasive and unethical scheme (aside from the fact that it would be difficult to implement) is extremely unsettling and in a sane world all by itself would disqualify him from holding a position of power in the government.

Page 786-7: The government could control women’s reproduction by either sterilizing them or implanting mandatory long-term birth control

Involuntary fertility control

“A program of sterilizing women after their second or third child, despite the relatively greater difficulty of the operation than vasectomy, might be easier to implement than trying to sterilize men.

The development of a long-term sterilizing capsule that could be implanted under the skin and removed when pregnancy is desired opens additional possibilities for coercive fertility control. The capsule could be implanted at puberty and might be removable, with official permission, for a limited number of births.”

Note well the phrase “with official permission” in the above quote. John Holdren envisions a society in which the government implants a long-term sterilization capsule in all girls as soon as they reach puberty, who then must apply for official permission to temporarily remove the capsule and be allowed to get pregnant at some later date. Alternately, he wants a society that sterilizes all women once they have two children. Do you want to live in such a society? Because I sure as hell don’t.

Page 838: The kind of people who cause “social deterioration” can be compelled to not have children

“If some individuals contribute to general social deterioration by overproducing children, and if the need is compelling, they can be required by law to exercise reproductive responsibility—just as they can be required to exercise responsibility in their resource-consumption patterns—providing they are not denied equal protection.“

To me, this is in some ways the most horrifying sentence in the entire book — and it had a lot of competition. Because here Holdren reveals that moral judgments would be involved in determining who gets sterilized or is forced to abort their babies. Proper, decent people will be left alone — but those who “contribute to social deterioration” could be “forced to exercise reproductive responsibility” which could only mean one thing — compulsory abortion or involuntary sterilization. What other alternative would there be to “force” people to not have children? Will government monitors be stationed in irresponsible people’s bedrooms to ensure they use condoms? Will we bring back the chastity belt? No — the only way to “force” people to not become or remain pregnant is to sterilize them or make them have abortions.

But what manner of insanity is this? “Social deterioration”? Is Holdren seriously suggesting that “some” people contribute to social deterioration more than others, and thus should be sterilized or forced to have abortions, to prevent them from propagating their kind? Isn’t that eugenics, plain and simple? And isn’t eugenics universally condemned as a grotesquely evil practice?

We’ve already been down this road before. In one of the most shameful episodes in the history of U.S. jurisprudence, the Supreme Court ruled in the infamous 1927 Buck v. Bell case that the State of Virginia had had the right to sterilize a woman named Carrie Buck against her will, based solely on the (spurious) criteria that she was “feeble-minded” and promiscuous, with Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes concluding, “Three generations of imbeciles are enough.” Nowadays, of course, we look back on that ruling in horror, as eugenics as a concept has been forever discredited. In fact, the United Nations now regards forced sterilization as a crime against humanity.

The italicized phrase at the end (“providing they are not denied equal protection”), which Holdren seems to think gets him off the eugenics hook, refers to the 14th Amendment (as you will see in the more complete version of this passage quoted below), meaning that the eugenics program wouldn’t be racially based or discriminatory — merely based on the whim and assessments of government bureaucrats deciding who and who is not an undesirable. If some civil servant in Holdren’s America determines that you are “contributing to social deterioration” by being promiscuous or pregnant or both, will government agents break down your door and and haul you off kicking and screaming to the abortion clinic? In fact, the Supreme Court case Skinner v. Oklahoma already determined that the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment distinctly prohibits state-sanctioned sterilization being applied unequally to only certain types of people.

No no, you say, Holdren isn’t claiming that some kind of people contribute to social deterioration more than others; rather, he’s stating that anyone who overproduces children thereby contributes to social deterioration and needs to be stopped from having more. If so — how is that more palatable? It seems Holdren and his co-authors have not really thought this through, because what they are suggesting is a nightmarish totalitarian society. What does he envision: All women who commit the crime of having more than two children be dragged away by police to the government-run sterilization centers? Or — most disturbingly of all — perhaps Holdren has thought it through, and is perfectly OK with the kind of dystopian society he envisions in this book.

Sure, I could imagine a bunch of drunken guys sitting around shooting the breeze, expressing these kinds of forbidden thoughts; who among us hasn’t looked in exasperation at a harried mother buying candy bars and soda for her immense brood of unruly children and thought: Lady, why don’t you just get your tubes tied already? But it’s a different matter when the Science Czar of the United States suggests the very same thing officially in print. It ceases being a harmless fantasy, and suddenly the possibility looms that it could become government policy. And then it’s not so funny anymore.

Page 838: Nothing is wrong or illegal about the government dictating family size

“In today’s world, however, the number of children in a family is a matter of profound public concern. The law regulates other highly personal matters. For example, no one may lawfully have more than one spouse at a time. Why should the law not be able to prevent a person from having more than two children?”

Why should the law not be able to prevent a person from having more than two children?

Why?

I’ll tell you why, John. Because the the principle of habeas corpus upon which our nation rests automatically renders any compulsory abortion scheme to be unconstitutional, since it guarantees the freedom of each individual’s body from detention or interference, until that person has been convicted of a crime. Or are you seriously suggesting that, should bureaucrats decide that the country is overpopulated, the mere act of pregnancy be made a crime?

I am no legal scholar, but it seems that John Holdren is even less of a legal scholar than I am. Many of the bizarre schemes suggested in Ecoscience rely on seriously flawed legal reasoning. The book is not so much about science, but instead is about reinterpreting the Constitution to allow totalitarian population-control measures.

Page 942-3: A “Planetary Regime” should control the global economy and dictate by force the number of children allowed to be born

Toward a Planetary Regime

“Perhaps those agencies, combined with UNEP and the United Nations population agencies, might eventually be developed into a Planetary Regime—sort of an international superagency for population, resources, and environment. Such a comprehensive Planetary Regime could control the development, administration, conservation, and distribution of all natural resources, renewable or nonrenewable, at least insofar as international implications exist. Thus the Regime could have the power to control pollution not only in the atmosphere and oceans, but also in such freshwater bodies as rivers and lakes that cross international boundaries or that discharge into the oceans. The Regime might also be a logical central agency for regulating all international trade, perhaps including assistance from DCs to LDCs, and including all food on the international market.”

“The Planetary Regime might be given responsibility for determining the optimum population for the world and for each region and for arbitrating various countries’ shares within their regional limits. Control of population size might remain the responsibility of each government, but the Regime would have some power to enforce the agreed limits.”

In case you were wondering exactly who would enforce these forced abortion and mass sterilization laws: Why, it’ll be the “Planetary Regime”! Of course! I should have seen that one coming.

The rest of this passage speaks for itself. Once you add up all the things the Planetary Regime (which has a nice science-fiction ring to it, doesn’t it?) will control, it becomes quite clear that it will have total power over the global economy, since according to Holdren this Planetary Regime will control “all natural resources, renewable or nonrenewable” (which basically means all goods) as well as all food, and commerce on the oceans and any rivers “that discharge into the oceans” (i.e. 99% of all navigable rivers). What’s left? Not much.

Page 917: We will need to surrender national sovereignty to an armed international police force

“If this could be accomplished, security might be provided by an armed international organization, a global analogue of a police force. Many people have recognized this as a goal, but the way to reach it remains obscure in a world where factionalism seems, if anything, to be increasing. The first step necessarily involves partial surrender of sovereignty to an international organization.”

The other shoe drops. So: We are expected to voluntarily surrender national sovereignty to an international organization (the “Planetary Regime,” presumably), which will be armed and have the ability to act as a police force. And we saw in the previous quote exactly which rules this armed international police force will be enforcing: compulsory birth control, and all economic activity.

It would be laughable if Holdren weren’t so deadly serious. Do you want this man to be in charge of science and technology in the United States? Because he already is in charge.

Page 749: Pro-family and pro-birth attitudes are caused by ethnic chauvinism

“Another related issue that seems to encourage a pronatalist attitude in many people is the question of the differential reproduction of social or ethnic groups. Many people seem to be possessed by fear that their group may be outbred by other groups. White Americans and South Africans are worried there will be too many blacks, and vice versa. The Jews in Israel are disturbed by the high birth rates of Israeli Arabs, Protestants are worried about Catholics, and lbos about Hausas. Obviously, if everyone tries to outbreed everyone else, the result will be catastrophe for all. This is another case of the “tragedy of the commons,” wherein the “commons” is the planet Earth. Fortunately, it appears that, at least in the DCs, virtually all groups are exercising reproductive restraint.”

This passage is not particularly noteworthy except for the inclusion of the odd phrase “pronatalist attitude,” which Holdren spends much of the book trying to undermine. And what exactly is a “pronatalist attitude”? Basically it means the urge to have children, and to like babies. If only we could suppress people’s natural urge to want children and start families, we could solve all our problems!

What’s disturbing to me is the incredibly patronizing and culturally imperialist attitude he displays here, basically acting like he has the right to tell every ethnic group in the world that they should allow themselves to go extinct or at least not increase their populations any more. How would we feel if Andaman Islanders showed up on the steps of the Capitol in Washington D.C. and announced that there were simply too many Americans, and we therefore are commanded to stop breeding immediately? One imagines that the attitude of every ethnic group in the world to John Holdren’s proposal would be: Cram it, John. Stop telling us what to do.

Page 944: As of 1977, we are facing a global overpopulation catastrophe that must be resolved at all costs by the year 2000

“Humanity cannot afford to muddle through the rest of the twentieth century; the risks are too great, and the stakes are too high. This may be the last opportunity to choose our own and our descendants’ destiny. Failing to choose or making the wrong choices may lead to catastrophe. But it must never be forgotten that the right choices could lead to a much better world.”

This is the final paragraph of the book, which I include here only to show how embarrassingly inaccurate his “scientific” projections were. In 1977, Holdren thought we were teetering on the brink of global catastrophe, and he proposed implementing fascistic rules and laws to stave off the impending disaster. Luckily, we ignored his warnings, yet the world managed to survive anyway without the need to punish ourselves with the oppressive society which Holdren proposed. Yes, there still is overpopulation, but the problems it causes are not as morally repugnant as the “solutions” which John Holdren wanted us to adopt.

The ADL is some amazing organization run by the Queen, they are now taking money from people concerned about another holocaust and using it to attack anyone who is randomly identifying similarities between 1920's Germany and 2000's America.

Am I the only one who sees the absolutely blatant irony?

They are a proponent of state power.

PORTENTS OF DOOM WHO STOLE $28.3 TRILLION...



http://forum.prisonplanet.com/index.php?topic=167274.0

Now we know the truth. The financial meltdown wasn't a mistake – it was a con

Hiding behind the complexities of our financial system, banks and other institutions are being accused of fraud and deception, with Goldman Sachs just the latest in the spotlight. This has become the most pressing election issue of all

  
http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2010/apr/18/goldman-sachs-regulators-civil-charges
Will Hutton
The Observer, Sunday 18 April 2010


The global financial crisis, it is now clear, was caused not just by the bankers' colossal mismanagement. No, it was due also to the new financial complexity offering up the opportunity for widespread, systemic fraud. Friday's announcement that the world's most famous investment bank, Goldman Sachs, is to face civil charges for fraud brought by the American regulator is but the latest of a series of investigations that have been launched, arrests made and charges made against financial institutions around the world. Big Finance in the 21st century turns out to have been Big Fraud. Yet Britain, centre of the world financial system, has not yet levelled charges against any bank; all that we've seen is the allegation of a high-level insider dealing ring which, embarrassingly, involves a banker advising the government. We have to live with the fiction that our banks and bankers are whiter than white, and any attempt to investigate them and their institutions will lead to a mass exodus to the mountains of Switzerland. The politicians of the Labour and Tory party alike are Bambis amid the wolves.

Just consider the roll call beyond Goldman Sachs. In Ireland Sean FitzPatrick, the ex-chair of the Anglo Irish bank – a bank which looks after the Post Office's financial services – was arrested last month and questioned over alleged fraud. In Iceland last week a dossier assembled by its parliament on the Icelandic banks – huge lenders in Britain – was handed to its public prosecution service. A court-appointed examiner found that collapsed investment bank Lehman knowingly manipulated its balance sheet to make it look stronger than it was – accounts originally audited by the British firm Ernst and Young and given the legal green light by the British firm Linklaters. In Switzerland UBS has been defending itself from the US's Inland Revenue Service for allegedly running 17,000 offshore accounts to evade tax. Be sure there are more revelations to come – except in saintly Britain.

Beneath the complexity, the charges are all rooted in the same phenomenon – deception. Somebody, somewhere, was knowingly fooled by banks and bankers – sometimes governments over tax, sometimes regulators and investors over the probity of balance sheets and profits and sometimes, as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) says in Goldman's case, by creating a scheme to enrich one favoured investor at the expense of others – including, via RBS, the British taxpayer. Along the way there is a long list of so-called "entrepreneurs" and "innovators" who were offered loans that should never have been made. Lloyd Blankfein, Goldman's CEO, remarked only semi-ironically that his bank was doing God's work. He must wake up every day bitterly regretting the words ever emerged from his mouth.

For the Goldmans case is in some ways the most damaging. The Icelandic banks, Anglo Irish bank and Lehman were all involved in opaque deals and rank bad lending decisions – but Goldman allegedly went one step further, according to the SEC actively creating a financial instrument that transferred wealth to one favoured client from others less favoured. If the Securities and Exchange Commission's case is proved – and it is aggressively rebutted by Goldman – the charge is that Goldman's vice-president Fabrice Tourre created a dud financial instrument packed with valueless sub- prime mortgages at the instruction of hedge fund client Paulson, sold it to investors knowing it was valueless, and then allowed Paulson to profit from the dud financial instrument. Goldman says the buyers were "among the most sophisticated mortgage investors" in the world. But this is a used car salesman flogging a broken car he's got from some wide-boy pal to some driver who can't get access to the log-book. Except it was lionised as financial innovation.

The investors who bought the collateralised debt obligation (CDO) were not complete innocents. They had asked for the bond to be validated by an independent expert into residential mortgage-backed securities – a company called ACA management. ACA gave the bond the thumbs-up on the understanding from Fabrice Tourre that the hedge fund Paulson were investing in it. But the SEC says Tourre misled them, a pivotal claim that Goldman denies. The reality was that Paulson was frantically buying credit default swaps in the CDO that would go up in price the more valueless it became – a trade that would make more than $1 billion. Worse, Paulson had identified some of the dud sub-prime mortgages that he wanted Tourre to put into the CDO. If the SEC case is true, this was a scam – nothing more, nothing less.

Tourre could see what was coming. In one email in January 2007 he wrote: "More and more leverage in the system. The whole building is about to collapse anytime now… only potential survivor, the fabulous Fab[rice Tourre] .. standing in the middle of all these complex highly leveraged exotic trades he created without necessarily understanding all of the implications of those monstrosities". Fabulous Fab, like his boss, will not be feeling very fab today.

The cases not only have a lot in common – using financial complexity allegedly to deceive and then using so-called independent experts to validate the deception (lawyers, accountants, credit rating agencies, "portfolio selection agents," etc etc ) – but they also show how interconnected the financial system is. In Iceland Citigroup and Deutsche Bank covered the margin calls of distressed Icelandic business borrowers, deepening the crisis. Lehman uses the lightly regulated London markets and two independent British experts to validate that their "Repo 105s" were "genuine" trades and not their own in-house liability. The American authorities pursued a Swiss bank over aiding and abetting US nationals to evade tax.

Bankers will complain these cases all involve one or two misguided individuals, but that most banking is above board and was just the victim of irrational exuberance, misguided belief in free market economics and faulty risk management techniques. Obviously that is true – but, sadly, there is much more to the crisis. Andrew Haldane, executive director of the Bank of England, highlights the remarkable reduction in the risk weighting of bank assets between 1997 and 2007. Put simply, Europe's and the US's large banks exploited the weak international agreement on bank capital requirements in the so-called Basel agreement in 2004 to reclassify the risk of their loans and trading instruments. They did not just reduce the risk by 5 or 10%. Breathtakingly, they claimed their new risk management techniques were so wonderful that the riskiness of their assets was up to half of what it had been – despite property and share prices cresting to new all-time highs.

Brutally, the banks knowingly gamed the system to grow their balance sheets ever faster and with even less capital underpinning them in the full knowledge that everything rested on the bogus claim that their lending was now much less risky. That was not all they were doing. As Michael Lewis describes in The Big Short, credit default swaps had been deliberately created as an asset class by the big investment banks to allow hedge funds to speculate against collateralised debt obligations. The banks were gaming the regulators and investors alike – and they knew full well what they were doing. Simon Johnson's 13 Bankers shows how the major American banks deployed vast political lobbying power and money to create the relaxed regulatory environment in which all this could take place. In Britain no money changed hands. Gordon Brown offered light-touch regulation for free – egged on by the Tories, who wanted to go further.

This was the context in which Goldman's Fabulous Fab created the disputed CDOs, Sean FitzPatrick allegedly moved loans between banks and Lehman created its Repo 105s along with the entire "debt mule" structure revealed this weekend of inter-related companies to shuffle debt around its empire. London and New York had become the centre of an international financial system in which the purpose of banking became making money from money – and where the complexity of the "innovations" allowed extensive fraud and deception.

Now it has all collapsed, to be bailed out by western taxpayers. The banks are resisting reform – and want to cling on to the business practices and business model that has so appallingly failed. It is obvious why: it makes them very rich. The politicians tread carefully, only proposing what the bankers say is congruent with their definition of what banking should be. Labour and Tories alike are united in opposing improved EU regulation of hedge funds, buying the propaganda those operations had nothing to do with the crisis. Perhaps Paulson's trades at Goldman, and the hedge funds' appetite for speculating in credit default swaps, may disabuse them.

It is time to reframe the question. Banks and financial institutions should do what economy and society want them to do – support enterprise, direct credit to where it is needed and be part of the system that generates investment and innovation. Andrew Haldane – and the governor of the Bank of England – are right. We need to break up our banks, limit their capacity to speculate and bring them back to earth. Britain should also launch an official investigation into what went wrong – and hand the findings to the Serious Fraud Office. This needs to become this election campaign's number one issue – not one which either a compromised Labour party or a temporising Conservative party will relish. The Lib Dems, the fiercest critics of the banks, have begun to get very lucky.

The American people need to demand that government break ties with BOTH the ADL and The Southern Poverty Law Center.  What these groups are doing BY WORKING WITH POLICE AND OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCIES is NOTHING NEW!  These types of groups were used in Russia when they were being 'sovietized'.  These groups would 'finger' whole groups of people to be sent to death camps BY LABELING whole groups of people as 'extremists' and opposition to the central government.

These same groups also set up camp in East Germany and worked on behalf of the German Stasi.

"A Time Comes When Silence Is Betrayal"
http://www.911truth.ie/emails/101120/107.html
FROM: Irish 9/11 truth Movement
DATE: Wed, 26 Apr 2006


These words are just as relevant today as when Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. first spoke them 39 years ago. At first glance they might be overlooked as just a simple protest against the war in Vietnam, but the relevance of this entire speech to the modern world we live in today, particularly issues like the truth of 9/11, can be heard in almost every inspiring point made. MLK mentions how "conformist thought" can end up preventing people from challenging their government sufficiently, especially in times of war, and how those who do speak out often then find it a "vocation of agony" because the current political climate deems it controversial or unpatriotic - nevertheless he says, "We must speak".

Although the speech is full of great parallels, that line alone - "A time comes when silence is betrayal" - is extremely poignant, because in the context of not questioning 9/11, in the face of overwhelming evidence that it should be questioned, that silence is a betrayal. It’s a betrayal not just to ourselves but to all the past generations who fought and died so that we may live in freedom, that silence is a betrayal to all the future generations who will inherit the world we leave them, and if we don’t question 9/11 that silence is a betrayal to all those who perished in the attacks and in the subsequent wars that 9/11 has disgustingly been used as currency to justify.

But for this silence to be a betrayal, whether it’s because of denial, forced circumstance, or just plain fear to speak out, the person not speaking out has to already know the facts and understand full well that they’re not doing the right thing. So, for the vast majority of uniformed people their silence can’t be described as a betrayal, because like the majority of people in the 9/11 truth movement - who also initially believed the official story - their silence most likely stems from being naďve, innocent, and ignorant to the facts.

That same understanding though can’t be applied to those in charge of the mainstream media who should be informing the uninformed masses, and whose silence is in effect a full betrayal - because they undoubtedly know that the official explanation, when critically analyzed, is the most outrageous and massively improbable conspiracy theory of them all. It is also beyond doubt there are many honest journalists and editors in the mainstream media who want desperately to break their silence, but have been prevented by "higher-ups".

So, it is up to those fighting for 9/11 truth to not only do the job of the media and inform the uninformed, but to also help those who are in denial - or who feel forced or intimidated - to break their betrayal of silence by making it socially acceptable to publicly question the previously unquestionable official account of 9/11. We must do that by establishing a credible, factual, and moral high ground which welcomes honest debate, and encourages individual research. Charlie Sheen’s inspiring efforts are a shining example of this approach as he has concentrated on a few key issues that make people think, and asks people to look at the information for themselves, draw their own conclusions, and debate.

Like the Charlie Sheen inspired "Challenge Me on the Facts" slogan for the 9/11 truth movement, a similar Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. inspired "Silence is Betrayal" slogan would make a great, simple, and thought provoking comment for anyone still convinced by the official story who can’t understand why questioning 9/11 should be so important to them.

A House Homeland Security Subcommittee hearing on "Terrorism and the Internet" held last week, and broadcast on C-Span, featured a panel of "experts", including representatives formerly of the RAND Corporation and the Simon Wiesenthal Center who presented 9/11 truth websites sites alongside sites that celebrate the attacks and offer training in terrorist tactics.  The hearing was chaired by Democratic Rep. Jane Harman, and ranking Republican, Rep. Dave Reichert. It was supposed to focus on the use of the internet by "home grown terrorist recruiters" yet in a shocking move it blatantly related the 9/11 truth movement with so called radical "jihadists".  In a very poorly prepared and delivered PowerPoint splurge, Mark Weitzman (pictured far right) stated:

"Some of these are conspiracy theories that present a closed view of the world, such as blaming 9/11 as an "outside job"(?) or blaming outside groups such as the U.S. government, or er the Jews etc, some of these are pro-Iraqi insurgency videos, some of them are media portals that people can enter into, ones that you saw earlier with the flags, the U.S. flags show that thy were based on U.S. servers..."

Under the heading "Internet: Incubator of 9/11 Conspiracies and Disinformation" Weiztman threw in video of WTC building 7 collapsing on 9/11 as posted on various 9/11 truth affiliated websites, along with screen shots of the Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth site and other sites, such as Killtown's, who raised awareness of this.  "We need to be aware of the empowering effect of the internet upon extremists, we must have researchers and responders for both the technical and and linguistic skills to keep us informed and to be able to respond to what is online. We must make users aware of the misinformation and of the techniques used by extremists." Weitzman continued.

And when there are real threats, this forum and other peaceful 9/11 truth movements are first and foremost to expose them so that any and all false flag violence is quickly escalated so that all of the alphabet intelligence agencies can quickly investigate what the f is going on.

Here are just a few examples:




Where is this guy? MSM hush hush about this one! What are they hiding?

No Name Released, No Investigation
HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?
HE IS THE ONLY ONE CAUGHT ON FILM WITH A DEATH THREAT AND NOT ONE NAME

"Death to Obama" Sign Holder Detained by Secret Service
Secret Service now involved

By JIM IOVINO
Updated 3:45 PM EDT, Thu, Aug 13, 2009

There were signs comparing President Barack Obama to a Nazi and showing him with an Adolf Hitler-style mustache, but federal officials believe another sign referencing the president and his family went too far. A man who was holding a sign reading "Death to Obama" Wednesday outside a town hall meeting on health care reform in Hagerstown, Md., has been turned over to the Secret Service. Washington County Sheriff's Capt. Peter Lazich said the sign also read, "Death to Michelle and her two stupid kids." Lazich said U.S. Secret Service agents took the unidentified 51-year-old man into custody Wednesday afternoon after deputies detained him near the entrance to Hagerstown Community College. Obama was not at the meeting held Wednesday by Maryland Democratic Sen. Ben Cardin. Barbara Golden, special agent in charge of the agency's Baltimore field office, said Thursday that an investigation is ongoing but declined further comment. A spokesman at the agency's Washington headquarters also declined to discuss the investigation.Police said there were no other arrests among the nearly 1,000 people, some carrying protest signs, who came to the college forvthe meeting or demonstrated off-campus. Cardin's national communications director, Sue Walitsky, called the incident "unfortunate."

She said she was unaware of it until Thursday morning. [W T F ? Everybody knew at the second the FBI agent opened his sign]

David Frum [AEI/PNAC] conditioning false flag scenario like he did for 9/11
The reckless Right courts violence
Hysterical talk from TV and radio hosts may be a cynical marketing exercise. But it's getting too dangerous to ignore.

Thursday, August 13, 2009 David Frum


A man bearing a sidearm appears outside President Obama's Aug. 11 town hall meeting in Portsmouth, N.H., under a sign proclaiming, "It is time to water the tree of liberty." That phrase of course references a famous statement of Thomas Jefferson's, from a 1787 letter: "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants." [David fails to mention that he was interviewed on Matthews and exposed that he is not a violent person, is not nuts, and is letting people know that unless the rights are practiced then they are lost. He also failed to mention that in NH a gun is an extention of your body, everybody has one. He also failed to mention that on that day in 1963, the only thing that would have stopped Harriman/Bush/Rockefeller from blowing JFK's brains out would have been if everyone exercised their 2nd ammendment rights. He also fails to mention Lyndon Johnson's role in MLK/RFK/Malcolm X's assassinations. He also fails to mention that OK City and 9/11 were caused by him and his buddies. He also fails to mention that he helped lead us into debt and genocide in the middle east. He failed to mention a lot.]

Earlier that same day, another man is arrested inside the school building in which the president will speak. Police found a loaded handgun in his parked car. At an event held by Rep. Gabrielle Giffords in Arizona last week, police were called after one attendee dropped a gun. Nobody has been hurt so far. We can all hope that nobody will be. But firearms and politics never mix well. They mix especially badly with a third ingredient: the increasingly angry tone of incitement being heard from right-of-center broadcasters.[He is collapsing very different issues and confabulating them into a conditioning scenario for his cronies to create another false flag. He has intimate knowledge of 9/11 that he still has not revealed to the American people and is setting up more violence by collapsing insane issues.]

The Nazi comparisons from Rush Limbaugh[Rush is completely compromised due to his dependency on opiates, viagra, and video/pics of him in compromising positions. Every time he tries to get out, they pull him back in.]; broadcaster Mark Levin [Mark is a gangsta with high level intelligence ties who has some minor things I disagree with him on. But Indira Singh said he is helping her cause so he is a patriot in my book.]asserting that President Obama is "literally at war with the American people"; former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin [Sarah took the bait, did her BS dog and pony show job, and then was told to get out and did. She seems to be a descent family person and I have nothing wrong with her voicing her opinion.] claiming that the president was planning "death panels" to extirpate the aged and disabled; the charges that the president is a fascist, a socialist, a Marxist, an illegitimate Kenyan fraud, that he "harbors a deep resentment of America," that he feels a "deep-seated hatred of white people," that his government is preparing concentration camps, that it is operating snitch lines, that it is planning to wipe away American liberties": All this hysterical and provocative talk invites, incites, and prepares a prefabricated justification for violence.

And indeed some conservative broadcasters are lovingly anticipating just such an outcome.

Here's Fox News' Glenn Beck clucking sympathetically that white males are being driven into murderous rage by "political correctness." Here again is Beck chuckling as he play-acts the poisoning of Nancy Pelosi. Just yesterday, the radio host Sean Hannity openly contemplated violence—and primly tut-tutted that if it occurs, the president will have only himself to blame.  Hyperbolic accusation and fantasy murder may well serve a talk-radio industry facing a collapse in advertising revenues—down 30–40 percent over the past two years, reports NewMajority.com's Tim Mak.[All of these CoIntelPro operatives are advocating violence to assist the Southern Poverty Law Center's plans for a false flag operation. Glenn Beck is the Hal Turner FBI operative for FOX. Sean Hannity consistently advocates torture and the genocide of brown people.]

As revenues dwindle, hosts feel compelled to intensify the talk-radio experience, hoping to win larger audience share with more extreme talk. It's like the early days of the pornography industry: At first a naked woman is thrilling enough, but soon a jaded audience is demanding more and more, wilder and wilder.  For the radio hosts, it's all mostly a cynical marketing exercise. But the audience? Not all of them know better.

In April, the Department of Homeland Security released a report warning of the danger of right-wing political violence in the United States [Report has been exposed at totally unsubstantiated], and mainstream conservatives erupted in offense.  National Review's Jonah Goldberg [ wrote: My real objection to this report is that its source material amounts to "everybody knows." Everybody knows the right is full of whack-jobs, hatemongers, and killers, and if we don't remain vigilant, bad things will happen.

Michelle Malkin asked in her syndicated column: What and who exactly are President Obama's Homeland Security officials afraid of these days? If you are a member of an active conservative group that opposes abortion, favors strict immigration enforcement, lobbies to protect Second Amendment rights, protests big government, advocates federalism or represents veterans who believe in any of the above, the answer is: You. [Michelle's book advocating internment camps won her a spot in the limelight for the left/right paradigm and she still only focuses on this failed dialectic]

Newt Gingrich tweeted: "The person who drafted the outrageous homeland security memo smearing veterans and conservatives should be fired." [Newt also works for the American Enterprise Institute, so this is just infighting moronic ramblings of two assholes.] I don't think the former speaker could tweet such a thing today in good conscience. The person who drafted that homeland security memo has gained very good reason to be worried. The guns are coming out. The risks are real.

It's not enough for conservatives to repudiate violence, as some are belatedly beginning to do. We have to tone down the militant and accusatory rhetoric. If Barack Obama really were a fascist, really were a Nazi, really did plan death panels to kill the old and infirm, really did contemplate overthrowing the American constitutional republic—if he were those things, somebody should shoot him.

But he is not. He is an ambitious, liberal president who is spending too much money and emitting too much debt. His health-care ideas are too ambitious and his climate plans are too interventionist. The president can be met and bested on the field of reason—but only by people who are themselves reasonable.

Soldier arrested over explosives in Tenn. field

(AP) – 14 hours ago

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. — An Army Special Forces soldier has been arrested following the discovery of about 100 pounds of explosives outside his Tennessee home.

Federal and military officials searched his home early Monday morning after a pair of hunters found the C-4 plastic explosive in a field by the house outside Clarksville. The house is near Fort Campbell, a sprawling Army post on the Tennessee-Kentucky border where the soldier is based.

Maj. April Olsen, a spokeswoman for Army Special Forces at Fort Campbell, said the soldier, who was not identified, is currently being held in the county jail.

Olsen said the search was conducted by agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the FBI and U.S. Army criminal investigators.

Ted Denny, spokesman for the Montgomery County sheriff, said the explosives found late Sunday evening appeared to be military ordnance.

Lon Santis, manager of technical services for the Institute of Makers of Explosives, the safety and security association of the commercial explosives industry, said most C-4 explosives are used by the military, but there is limited commercial use, such as in demolitions.

Santis said the ATF has record-keeping and identification requirements they can use to track explosives, but those requirements do not apply to military explosives.

Another Fort Campbell soldier was arrested in October and charged with selling four stolen hand grenades and a stolen anti-tank rocket to an undercover officer in Tennessee.

Prosecutors said the transaction with Pfc. Joshua Bartlett Etherton, a 101st Airborne Division soldier, was arranged after police in the small town of Paris received a tip, but they would not say who he believed was the buyer.

He remains in prison without bond.

Soldier Who Admitted Stockpiling Explosives Released From Jail


Friday, November 06, 2009


NASHVILLE, Tenn. —  An Army Special Forces soldier who admitted to stockpiling military-grade explosives outside his home near Fort Campbell was released from jail into the custody of his wife.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Cliff Knowles gave the order releasing 25-year-old Sgt. 1st Class Timothy Ryan Richards during a detention hearing Thurday in federal court in Nashville. He was charged with possessing two unregistered automatic weapons.

As part of the conditions for his release, Knowles ordered Richards not to be around any weapons or leave the area unless it was authorized by the military.

Investigators are still trying to determine whether he got the explosives from the post.

Two hunters stumbled upon the explosives on Sunday at Richards' home outside of Clarksville, near the sprawling Army post on the Tennessee-Kentucky state line.




The "dirty bomb" that disappeared

The curious tale of an Obama hating, cashed up, nuclear Timothy McVeigh from Maine.

By Julian Assange (investigations editor)

It has all the makings of a great story. But outside of the US state of Maine and select counter-terrorism circles, you won't have heard about it. For this is a story with all the right ingredients but one wrong ingredient.

On the right side is a leaked FBI intelligence report, Obama's inauguration, a trust fund, a woman, a basement lab, uranium, thorium, the first attempt to build a "dirty bomb" on US soil, and, of course, murder.

On the wrong is the body of James G. Cummings, white supremacist millionaire, found in his Belfast home on December 9, shot to death.

After local police attended the scene, the FBI moved in and sealed off the building. Men in protective suits descended on the home but police refused to comment about what they found. Mrs. Cummings was taken into custody.

Then on Jan 12 Wikileaks revealed a confidential FBI field intelligence report on the incident as part of a Presidential inauguration threat analysis.[1]

According to the FBI report, Cummings had four lots of one gallon containers of bomb-grade hydrogen peroxide, uranium, thorium (also radioactive), lithium metal, thermite, aluminum powder, beryllium (radiation booster), boron, black iron oxide and magnesium ribbon.

While the radiation levels from Cummings initial device would have not have been physically significant compared to its explosive and toxic effects, had Cummings set off the device in Washington DC, during Obama's Presidential inauguration, its psychogenic effect may have hospitalized thousands.

The FBI states it also seized literature on how to build “dirty bombs” and information about cesium-137, strontium-90 and cobalt-60 and other radioactive materials.

There was also evidence linking Cummings to white supremacist groups, including Cummings' membership application to the US National Socialist (Nazi) party.

Local tradesmen who worked at the Cummings home told Maine reporters that Cummings was an ardent admirer of Adolf Hitler and had a collection of Nazi memorabilia around the house, including a prominently displayed flag with a swastika. Cummings claimed to have pieces of Hitler’s personal silverware and place settings.[2]

Though the Associated Press independently confirmed the Wikileaks FBI report, no-one outside of the Maine press (and Wikileaks) wanted to tell their readers about the first credible "dirty bomb" plot on US soil.

Perhaps the media has simply tired of the phrase? Not at all.

There have been at least 1,264 media references to "dirty bomb" in the past month. A mere 23, or 1.8%, relate to the Cummings case--despite it being the only real plot among them.[3]

Of the 23 Cummings references 21 are local Maine media and two are from security industry magazines.

The same time period saw 409 blog references, Some 76, or 19%, relate to the Cummings case--ten times the ratio of organized media.[4]

However, 78 out of 79 bloggers simply copied text from Maine's paper of record, the Bangor Daily News (BDN) which followed up the Wikileaks document with a strong traditional press investigation. The 79th also wondered about the media silence outside of Maine.

Conservatives apparently didn't want to draw attention to a radioactive, wealthy version of Timothy McVeigh coming from their own sphere, although nearly every day during Bush's reign saw "dirty bombs" hyped as the ultimate threat.

The left didn't want to repeat another "dirty bomb" story, the likes of which Republicans had used to drive hundreds of billions of dollars into Republican dominated military and security contractors.

Those same contractors normally would have comprised a lobby to get the story out--and counter-terrorism dollars in--but their message lines were finely honed to hype threats posed by militant Islam and radical anti-capitalist greens.

Libertarians all over had conditioned themselves to oppose reportage that might lead to reactionary state controls.

The FBI wasn't talking and the Maine government tried to play incident down, under the rubric that they had protected Maine citizens at all times, despite apparently having no conception of the Cummings plot.

Journalists of various hues at influential east coast outlets could have pushed the story had there been enough prestige incentive to overcome other allegiances, but because Wikileaks and BDN were "first" there was no such incentive. If there were journalism awards to be had, they'd be going to Maine journalists and Wikileaks.

And there you have it. The first "dirty bomb" plot on US soil, cut short only by a Shakespearean murder. But until now, you probably never heard about it, because only a few had incentives to tell you.

The Belfast dirty bomber is just one drop from an ocean of truth that is unreported, not repeated, and does not enter into civil discourse, because it is not perceived to be profitable to talk about, regardless of how profitable it may be to hear.

Yet it is from these shared perceptions that we form the structure of civilization itself. Every government, every law, every regulation and every constitution is its product. Hence the quality of civilization is predicated on the degree to which civil discourse is a fair representation of the only reality which civilization can govern.

Only when the dreams of man are built from knowledge will they support the weight of people.

That is why the revelation of primary source knowledge, from which everything follows, must be set free. Its limits are the limits of civilization itself. In its emancipation, the emancipation of all.

Report: Slain US Nazi hated Obama, had parts for 'dirty bomb'

Claim: Depleted uranium purchased over the Internet from an American company

Trust fund millionaire James G. Cummings, an American Nazi sympathizer from Maine who was slain by his wife Amber in December, allegedly had the radioactive components necessary to construct a "dirty bomb," a newly released threat analysis report states.

The man, allegedly furious over the election of President Obama, purchased depleted uranium over the Internet from an American company.

"According to an FBI field intelligence report from the Washington Regional Threat and Analysis Center posted online by WikiLeaks, an organization that posts leaked documents, an investigation into the case revealed that radioactive materials were removed from Cummings’ home after his shooting death on Dec. 9," reported the Bangor Daily News.

"Amber (Cummings) indicated James was very upset with Barack Obama being elected President," reported the Washington Regional Threat and Analysis Center (PDF link). "She indicated James had been in contact with 'white supremacist group(s).' Amber also indicated James mixed chemicals in the kitchen sink at their residence and had mentioned 'dirty bombs.'"

"Also found was literature on how to build 'dirty bombs' and information about cesium-137, strontium-90 and cobalt-60, radioactive materials," said the Bangor Daily. "The FBI report also stated there was evidence linking James Cummings to white supremacist groups. This would seem to confirm observations by local tradesmen who worked at the Cummings home that he was an ardent admirer of Adolf Hitler and had a collection of Nazi memorabilia around the house, including a prominently displayed flag with swastika. Cummings claimed to have pieces of Hitler’s personal silverware and place settings, painter Mike Robbins said a few days after the shooting."

After Amber Cummings admitted to the murder and entered an insanity plea, Belfast, Main police felt it necessary to bring the FBI on the scene. Bangor Daily reporter Eric Russell followed up in a filmed interview with Belfast Police Chief Jeffrey Trafton:



The paper also reported that Cummings had a long history of violence.

Public safety officials were quick to claim there was no threat.

The story of the first attempt at constructing a "dirty bomb" in the United States was not carried by any mainstream press outside of Maine.

"Conservatives apparently didn't want to draw attention to a radioactive, wealthy version of Timothy McVeigh coming from their own sphere, although nearly every day during Bush's reign saw "dirty bombs" hyped as the ultimate threat," summarized Wikileaks.

"The left didn't want to repeat another 'dirty bomb' story, the likes of which Republicans had used to drive hundreds of billions of dollars into Republican dominated military and security contractors."

In the report, an unnamed source noted, "state authorities detected radiation emissions in four small jars in the residence labeled 'uranium metal', as well as one jar labeled 'thorium.' The four jars of uranium carried the label of an identified US company."

"Further preliminary analysis on 30 December 2008 indicated an unlabeled jar to be a second jar of thorium. Each bottle of uranium contained depleted uranium 238. Analysis also indicated the two jars of thorium held thorium 232."

"An Internet search of the James B. Cummings Trust indicated that it has an annual income of $10 million," noted a report republished by Wikileaks.

And here is the evidence of a patsy in the making:

Cummings had violent history
http://www.bangornews.com/detail/99358.html
By Abigail Curtis 2/12/09


BELFAST, Maine - James G. Cummings II was known as "kind of a violent dude" back home in Fort Bragg, Calif., according to Lt. Rusty Noe of the Mendocino County Sheriff's Office.

"He was involved in several assault cases," Noe said in a telephone interview Wednesday evening. "He was a victim in some, a suspect in others, most of them involving family."

But despite the 16 contacts the sheriff's office had with him in the late 1990s, Noe sounded surprised to learn of recent allegations that Cummings was a white supremacist with a cache of radioactive materials and directions for building a dirty bomb in his Belfast home. [Profile of a patsy, look into connections with this guy and government agencies.  He could be one of the "Homegrown" patsies that they have available.  Look how everyone is completely quiet about this one.]

"The guys say they never knew him to be a Neo-Nazi type," Noe said. "He seemed like he was a kind of angry dude that argued with the family."

Police say that Cummings was shot to death by his wife, Amber B. Cummings, two months ago, in what they have described as a domestic violence homicide. He had no criminal history in Maine.

There was even less information readily available about Amber Cummings, whose maiden name may have been Brown. Cummings didn't answer the phone at her Belfast home Wednesday afternoon.

It wasn't clear Wednesday why the Cummingses moved to their home at 346 High Street in Belfast.

There are three vehicles registered to the couple with the office of the Maine Secretary of State: a 2000 Jeep Wrangler, a 1999 Dodge Durango and a 1998 motor home.

All in all, a modest lifestyle for a man who came from a California family as wealthy as it was troubled. His father, James G. Cummings Sr., made a fortune in real estate and was a well-known local philanthropist before being shot to death at his home in 1997, according to newspaper accounts.

Just months before his father's death, when James G. Cummings II was 17, he made the national news - including Oprah - when he and his father allegedly conspired to secretly videotape his mother in the act of using hard drugs, according to the archives of the Anderson Valley Advertiser.

"The national media swooped down on Fort Bragg, and there was a 24-hour cacophony about kids spying on parents," wrote Bruce Anderson in a 2002 story. "[They] were long gone by the time it was found that Mom had been brewing up popcorn balls for the kids, not black tar heroin."

Mark Scaramella, the managing editor of the paper, said Wednesday that Cummings and his sister, Kathryn, sued to get more of their father's estate in the early 2000s.

It isn't clear how much they inherited, but the father's trust fund reportedly earns an estimated annual income of $10 million.

When asked about a neo-Nazi presence in Fort Bragg, Scaramella chuckled.

"There are some red-necky sorts of skinheady people," he said. "I don't think they read enough to be neo-Nazis."

True. Prison Planet would have been a much better source to prove their point.
