Wow

Found at WhatReallyHappened.com:

I love this image of an autograph of Robert Oppenheimer who helped created the first atomic weapon. It has a bomb with an X drawn over it that says “NO”.

Bush Admin. Lies…Again

Message from the Bush Administration: “Oops. Just kidding. By regime change we didn’t just mean Iraq. We meant ALL of the current Iraqi government.” Is it 2004 yet? Can’t we impeach this guy or something? Anyone have any pretzels? Let’s get these leeches off.

The Sniper Problem

The Sniper Problem…An illustration that law-enforcement is not all powerful. This is very bad for the government. They can’t have ordinary Americans being shown day after day that the government is impotent to stop a determined murderer. Another potential problem is the possibility that this sniper could have been someone trained in the US Military. That would be a huge embarrassment to the Bush administration and to the military junta that runs this country.

The threat of continuing embarrassment and the attention of this series of shootings has prompted the Pentagon to approve the deployment of military surveillance to help find the sniper. Maybe also so if it is a member of the military they can take him out on their own? Something is fishy about this. Also, not to mention that this violates the spirit of the Posse Commitatus Act despite assertions to the contrary:

Authorities had considered using a Predator unmanned aerial vehicle but decided to have military pilots fly reconnaissance, a defense official told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity. A main objective is to improve communication among investigators.
The help will be provided in a way meant to comply with the Posse Comitatus Act, an 1878 law that bans the military from domestic law enforcement. That means the military will relay data to law enforcement officials and will not decide on its own what targets to watch, the official said.
The Pentagon’s participation also could involve a system of sensors that could detect flashes of gunfire on the ground, the official said.

What’s afoot? A turf war or something else?

This has to be more than coincidence. Regardless of what this ‘anonymous’ source says.

Latest Sniper Victim Worked for FBI:

An FBI agent is the latest victim of the Washington-area sniper, and investigators said Tuesday they were confident that detailed witness accounts from the scene will lead them to the person who has now killed nine people.

FEMA and the NSC

Ever wonder why people worry about FEMA related conspiracies?

From FEMA as Big Brother:

The leading theoreticians behind the creation of FEMA were Samuel Huntington, a National Security Council consultant under Carter, and Zbigniew Brzezinski, who served as Carter’s national security advisor. Before that, Brzezinski was executive director at the Trilateral Commission, a “New Ager” who envisioned a “technetronic society” in the United States. Nominally a Democrat, Brzezinski nevertheless became a leading adviser on strategic policy to George Bush’s 1988 campaign, and continues to serve as an informal consultant to the Bush administration. Huntington is currently a member of the FEMA Advisory Board. Both Huntington and Brzezinski belong to the CFR.

FEMA was established in March 1979 by presidential Review Memorandum 32, with the mandate to maintain “the continuity of government” (COG) during a national security emergency. PRM 32 bypassed the U.S. Constitution, and awarded power to the unelected officials at the National Security Council to direct U.S. government operations by emergency decree. By placing FEMA under the NSC’s control, Huntington, Brzezinski, et al., turning the NSC into a shadow technocratic dictatorship, waiting for a real or manufactured crisis to seize control of the country.

Some scary information the ADL (The Anti-Defamation League)

Fact Sheet on the ADL:

The Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith (ADL) gave an award Nov. 18, 1998 to the city of Coeur d’Alene. City Fathers assume this is something to be proud of and have unthinkingly rolled out the red carpet for the ADL.

They think that an imprimatur from the ADL, a prominent Jewish group with a multi-million dollar budget and substantial media clout, is a kind of certification of our area’s goodness. But in point of fact, hosting the ADL and its regional Seattle director at the Coeur d’Alene Resort is a shameful blot on the region.

The ADL is a branch of the masonic B’nai B’rith (Sons of the Covenant), which was established Oct. 13, 1843.

Up until recently, for decades the chief “fact-finder” (head spy) for the ADL was the late Irwin Suall. From 1957 through 1962, Mr. Suall was national secretary of the Socialist Party. (1)

The ADL keeps extensive espionage files on those who are critical of Israeli policies. Last year the ADL attempted to blackmail Benjamin Chavis, leader of the NAACP, with some of those files. (2)

The ADL spies on American dissidents on behalf of the Israeli government. Automobile license plate numbers of people attending a meeting of the Committee on the Middle East were recorded by ADL agent Roy Bullock, channeled through San Francisco police officer Tom Gerard, also an ADL operative, and furnished to the Israeli government. (3) …

Anti-Defamation League They sure seem to practice their own brand of defamation on their site. Hypocrites.

At least the business press is honest

..when it comes to making money.

Forbes: Post-Saddam Iraq could sell more oil -White House:

The White House said Friday that a new Iraqi government that abided by international norms would be in a position to sell more oil as well as other products around the world.

“If you take a look at the exports that are coming out of Iraq today, not only in the matter of oil, but in all products, the outlaw Iraqi regime is under United Nations sanctions,” White House spokesman Ari Fleischer told reporters.

“An Iraqi regime that comes into agreement with international norms and becomes a part of the (welcome) world community because it has a new government would clearly be in a position to trade more both in terms of oil and in terms of products around the world,” the spokesman added.
