MY Y2K ASSESSMENT. 

I received a lot of flak during the past two years from my own clients and colleagues for my rather mild view of the Y2K danger.  I was predicting Y2K to be a 2-4 on a scale of 10, with any major infrastructure problems lasting no more than a few days to a week.  As one of the country’s top preparedness experts and as a former moderator of one of Gary North’s Y2K forums most people expected me to be on the “sky is falling” side.  My prediction turned out to be fairly accurate, though not because I was sure.  Actually, I was in two different camps at the same time.  I never doubted for a moment the great danger that Y2K presented.  Gary North, Don McAlvany, Ed Yourdon, Michael Hyatt, Jim Lord and others were correct about the magnitude and complexity of the problem.  So, I was never one of those that said, “no big deal.”  I did, however, differ with all these experts in the end result of Y2K.  Like my brother, Mark Skousen (editor of the excellent economic newsletter, “Forecasts and Strategies”) I ultimately rely on my gut feelings in making decisions about the future when the data is incomplete.  I couldn’t shake the basic feeling that Y2K was going to work itself out, without a major shutdown of Western civilization.  The only thing that began to shake that basic feeling in the final months was the rash of government preparations for martial law.  The rumors were flying so thick and fast that I suspected there would be some selective social unrest and that government would take advantage of it to get people used to emergency powers.  But even in this, I felt the dark side of government would use these dangerous powers in a discrete manner so that they could gain the propaganda victory of saying, “you see, government needs these powers and can be trusted to use them.”  Perhaps the government was, indeed, planning on using these powers, but Y2K simply didn’t provide the opportunity. 

                Overall, I sensed that Y2K would work itself out because of two major factors that would weigh in much heavier than the technical issues.  First, I had confidence in the ingenuity of the technician level people around the country and their ability to figure out bypasses to the computer problems.  While all the experts (and CEOs) were focusing their attention on the near impossibility of fixing all the code, I was talking to technicians.  They all assured me they could figure out bypasses and temporary fixes for essential infrastructure issues.  Their jobs were on the line and I knew they weren’t going to simply stay home when computers failed, or even when management failed to provide proper contingency plans.  If any single factor made Y2K a minor threat as to infrastructure it was the work of the technicians--and they are still hard at work with the ongoing problems.  There would have been many more failures in power, communications, and sewer/water had not the technicians prepared and implemented manual overrides.  This approach was particularly effective in third world countries.  Second, I had more begrudging respect for the power of the dark side of government, which was also threatened by the potential havoc of Y2K.   While many Christians and conservatives were drawn into the hope that Y2K could take down the evils of big government, I was sure that the Powers That Be (PTB) were not going to allow that to happen.  Sadly, I was right.  So bad did big government want to come out the “hero” of this situation, they have taken great pains to cover-up many problems that did surface. 

                Clearly, big government wanted desperately to have a victory over those who don’t trust government and who are seeking for greater self-reliance and liberty.  Overall, the world is more highly polarized now, as to people’s view of government, with a slightly larger percentage on the side leery of government promises.  The ones who are observant see that government can rarely be trusted to tell the truth--even though things were made to look pretty good in the end.  Those who underwent a change in preparedness philosophy and lifestyle will fare much better in future crises, which surely will come.  We all owe a great debt to the Gary Norths and Michael Hyatts of the world for sounding the alarm.  A few million were moved to prepare who would not otherwise have done so, and got the establishment moving toward a Y2K fix-if only to prove Gary North wrong, among other motivations.

                So where do we stand now?  The general consensus of experts now is that the big problem in Y2K prognostication was lack of honest candor from government and business combined with the fact that lack of 100% compliance did not equate with failure.  I would estimate that at least 75% of the problems got fixed and the rest is in some chronic state of partial failure that can be handled on a “fix on failure” basis, without major disruptions.  Government and utilities correctly prepared for failure by putting pressure on many heavy industries to shut down over the Y2Kweekend to make sure the power grid could handle some down time.  It was a good strategy.  There were some power failures, but the grid held up.  There are lots of small failures going on now--but all of them are being remedied within a relatively short time frame.  Many of the remedies are quick and dirty patches, but they do buy more time.   Here is an excellent quote from Roleigh Martin:

 “I think it is also reasonable to assume that most upcoming Y2K failures will simply be unseen by the general public because they will be failures of a business process.  Few companies make public announcements of such difficulties and they won't here either.  As some have these problems they will simply become one of the factors that cause a company earnings shortfall or demise.” 

There are a rash of small failures going on right now, but very few are being reported, or even admitted to have been caused by Y2K.  They may not be directly related to the date problem, but they are related to a flawed fix.  What we are seeing is the inevitable failure of new systems rushed into use without complete testing.  So while the date isn’t the specific problem in many cases, faulty integration and testing of replacement systems are problems.

                Lack of honesty in the press is just as bad as always.  There are several cases of government computer breakdowns initially reported on websites of CNN, ABC, etc.  When you go back to find those reports on their Internet sites a few hours later, they have been purged--even the archives no longer carry the story.  The failure of FAA computers in the Northeast was one such story.   The FAA claimed it wasn’t Y2K, but it certainly had to be the failure of one of the fixes that were put in place because of Y2K.  Y2K is over, in my opinion, so lets move on.

 

WITNESS TO CLINTON’S COCAINE USE SENT TO JAIL FOR 32 YEARS.

Two years ago, in a powerful display of federal retribution against a political witness,  Sharline Wilson, a small time drug seller in Arkansas was sent to prison for a petty drug violation.  She got a whopping 32 year sentence.  The woman’s real crime was not the drug use or sale, but the fact that she had the courage to testify to a federal grand jury that she saw President Clinton snort cocaine.  She actually sold the cocaine to Clinton’s younger brother, Roger.  But she happened to mention that Bill Clinton was also present and that he promptly snorted some of  Roger’s cocaine to check out the quality (thereby demonstrating that he was no novice).  Appeals were made to Republican Governor Mike Huckabee to release her, but since he had campaigned on a “get tough on crime” platform, he felt he could only go so far as to make her eligible for parole.  The parole board, after much wringing of hands, finally decided to release her.  No press coverage was forthcoming, nor is it expected.

RENO ATTEMPTS TO FALSIFY WACO SIMULATION

In response to new evidence that FBI agents were using automatic weapons to fire upon Branch Davidians who were trying to escape the fiery inferno at Waco, the Texas judge in the case has ordered a simulation of the Waco siege to ascertain whether aerial infra red film of light flashes from FBI firing positions were muzzle flashes.  The simulation will take place at nearby Fort Hood, and will involve a helicopter overflight with an infrared video camera recording the effects of simulated attackers firing automatic weapons.  Attorney General Janet Reno offered to have ERIM International conduct and assess the results of the simulation.  The defense team of lawyers objected since 3 of the principal investigators at ERIM are former colleagues of William Ginsberg, who filed an affidavit in behalf of the government arguing against running the simulation.

                ANALYSIS:  That’s not the half of it.  ERIM International is one of those companies that emerged after WWII (from the dark world of the OSS) to carry on secret government research and development of spy and surveillance equipment for the CIA and the military.  It is still, according to CIA whistleblowers, a front company for the CIA and develops and manufactures most of the high tech equipment that the dark side of government uses to surveil Americans via satellite and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR).  It is no wonder that Reno wanted these boys on the job.  The new video, “Waco--A New Revelation” has all the evidence on film.  It is very convincing.  Obviously, the government was caught in a big lie and is working to cover it up.

US TAXPAYERS SECRETLY FOOTING THE BILL FOR WORLD GOVERNMENT

                Remember the controversy over back dues the US owes the UN--some $3.1 billion?   That’s peanuts in comparison to the hidden billions the Clinton administration exacts from Congress and the American taxpayer to fund UN projects.  For example, last month  I detailed the UN’s efforts to hire thousands of policemen from the US and Europe to train civilian police in Bosnia and Kosovo.  Because this is a UN operation we would assume the UN is paying the bill.  Not so.  After reading another report about small town police chief, Charles Lightfoot, who was recruited to work in Bosnia (at twice his normal salary) I decided to investigate the source of this lavish funding.  I called DynCorp, the government-connected conglomerate who is handling the recruiting of US police and asked about the source of their funding.  Was it the UN?  No.  The US State Department had issued the contract, worth millions of dollars.  I then went to the State Department to find out how this was authorized.  This police project was too new to be in last year’s authorization bill.  In fact, there was no specific authorization--it was covered under the guise of a huge slush fund for “international affairs.” and backed by a couple of Clinton’s executive orders!  This year’s State Department budget for International Affairs is a whopping $22.8 billion.  Almost all of this is used to fund NWO pet projects around the world. 

                ANALYSIS:  Here is how this shell game works.  Congress gets a wish list from the State Department asking for $22 billion. Congress holds hearings, looks it over and cuts a few items here and there that they do not want to fund.  Let’s say they end up giving the State Department $21 billion for next year’s “international affairs”  operations.  Congress naively expects the State Department spend the money as outlined in the budget.  But that isn’t what happens.  Once in State’s hands, all Clinton has to do is issue a Presidential Decision Directive (PDD), the specific wording of which is always kept secret, and this big pot of money can flow in any direction he directs.  On Thursday, February 24, the press got a clear look at this process.  Secretary Albright held a press briefing about a brand new PDD, to be used in combination with PDDs 25 and 56, directing the  State Dept. to implement and fund international civilian police training, and a justice system in the Balkans. Congress can complain, but it has no enforcement powers other than to try and cut off all funding for the next year, which is politically impossible. 

                In the process of this investigation, I also found out that the US government is funding the training of the German Air Force at Holloman AFB.  Heretofore, the government had said it was merely leasing space at Holloman AFB to the Germans.  We all assumed that the Germans would be footing their own bill for training.  Now I find out that this same DynaCorp has a multi-million dollar contract from the Pentagon to maintain all of the German F-4 aircraft at Holloman.  Why are we subsidizing the training of the wealthiest country in Europe?

GOVERNMENT MANIPULATION OF INFLATION NUMBERS

The Shadow Bureau of Government Statistics in Hawthorne, N.J., issued an alert this month about extreme government manipulation of the Consumer Price Index (CPI)--the official US Government statistical index of inflation.  The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), which runs the CPI calculations, reported that for January the CPI rose a mere 0.2 percent .  They also reported that  producer wholesale prices were unchanged for the same period.  How can this be, given the huge rise in both wholesale and retail prices of gasoline and heating oil?   The secret, according to Williams, is “Intervention Analysis.”  The BLS admits in a footnote, “The BLS has used an enhanced seasonal adjustment procedure called Intervention Analysis.  For the fuel oil and the motor fuels indexes, this procedure was used to offset the effects that extreme price volatility would otherwise have had on the estimates of seasonal adjusted data for those series."   In other words, not only does the BLS eliminate all seasonal spikes in prices, it also squashes any huge spikes in gasoline prices, supposedly because it is a temporary phenomenon.  William’s group estimates that the real CPI was understated by a full percentage point for the month, giving an annualized rate of inflation of near 14%.

                ANALYSIS:  Temporary price increases or not, the public is paying these outrageous gas prices and they do affect everyone’s cost of living.  By the way, gasoline isn’t the only item manipulated on the CPI.  Housing costs are converted to “equivalent rents” and then manipulated downward to obscure double digit rising costs.  Dental and professional fees are skewed so that they show only the lowest average prices charged at “base rates”.  Many items are simply removed from the CPI list when they start inflating rapidly, and substituted with others in the typical (or mythical)  BLS “shopping basket.” Several years ago, according to Williams, the government shifted to what it calls ‘geometric weighting’ which means that anything that goes up in price automatically gets a lower weighting in the calclation and anything that goes down in price gets a higher weighting.  So all the calculations are designed disguise real inflation.

                This kind of government abuse of its fiscal duty is outrageous and has monetary consequences for millions of people.  Bond and stock valuations as well as interest rates are skewed without accurate expectations of inflation.  Many government and private pension programs are indexed to the CPI.  When government fudges the numbers it allows pension managers to evade payment of the full and rightful adjustment.  Everyone’s cash and savings are being eroded at a faster pace than they realize and banks are allowed to continue the charade that paying a paltry 3% interest rate is a “fair deal.”  The government saves billions in indexed payments to retirees, which in turn, allows politicians to overstate the supposed “surplus.”  It is also an essential part of government policy to hide double digit monetary inflation so as to conceal the long-term effects of the Fed’s expansionist monetary policy.

CLINTON’S PET JUDGE UNDER SCRUTINY

Larry Clayman’s Judicial Watch (America’s shadow Department of Justice) is going after the Chief Justice of the US District Court in Washington DC., Chief Judge Norma Johnson, whose job includes assigning cases to other judges.  She has regularly bypassed the computerized system of random assignment in the prosecutions of six major cases involving Clinton-Gore scandals--everything from Whitewater to campaign fund-raising with the Chinese.  She chose Clinton appointed judges for every case, each time refusing to abide by the random selection process.  In each case the judges approved token sentences or plea bargains and let the higher-ups escape scrutiny.  This is not surprising since virtually all Clinton appointees are trusted insiders who can be relied upon to protect the dark side of government. 

                Federal appeals judge Stephen Williams, a reliable ally of the Democrats, responded to an earlier complaint by Judicial Watch by dismissing the complaint, without comment.  However, when more evidence surfaced recently of other incidents of “judge shopping” by Johnson, Williams was forced to approve a full-scale inquiry.  Howard Coble, R-N.C., had entered the fray and presented additional evidence that (besides the Trie and Hubbell cases), Johnson had assigned four other fund-raising cases to Clinton appointees.  The other cases included the plea-bargain of Howard Glicken, a prominent Miami businessman and former fund-raiser for Vice President Al Gore.  As I have documented in the past, when key judges are controlled by the insiders, the workings of the dark side of government are guaranteed protection.  Incidentally, this guarantee of protection is essential to the recruitment process so that other up-and-coming players can feel confident they will be protected in their involvement in illegal activities on behalf of government.

                A five judge panel will launch a full-scale inquiry into why Judge Johnson sent prosecutions of presidential friends and fund-raisers to judges favorable to Clinton.  Appeals Judge Williams, hoping to give the appearance of a tough investigation, chose three Republicans and a Clinton appointee to help him delve into the conduct of Chief Judge Johnson.  None of these judges are solid conservatives, so it is unlikely they will return an unfavorable report.  Remember that all the “independent counsels” chosen by Janet Reno were supposedly conservative Republicans, but they were also fellow insiders and worked to cover for Clinton.  I predict only a mild rebuke will be forthcoming, sufficient to maintain the appearance of justice, but not strong enough to induce Congress to impeach her.  Being a woman and a liberal justice, it would be very unlikely that compromising Sen. Orrin Hatch R-Ut. or Congress would have the courage to impeach her.  After Clinton’s sham impeachment process ensured that the public doesn’t have the stomach for it anymore.  The Clinton impeachment was specifically orchestrated by the media to destroy future incentives for impeachment.

THE ELIAN GONZALES CASE

Commentary:  I have been reluctant to comment on this case because I am not in favor of unlimited immigration, nor do I believe anyone ought to get special treatment just because they have become a media celebrity.  Yet, this poor boy has become the object of a nasty ongoing betrayal of liberty by the Clinton administration, and I feel my readers ought to know the story, complex as it is. 

                First, there is the normal amount of hypocrisy in the media reports, giving the impression that this is a simple case of a loving father wanting his son back.   Juan Miguel Gonzales, Elian’s father, is portrayed as if he were totally sincere and beyond reproach.  There is testimony from relatives of his deceased wife that Juan Gonzales was physically abusive.  Family sources also indicate that he was unfaithful and that he left her and Elian for another woman.  Elian and his mother lived in poverty without support from the father in a one room apartment.  Furthermore, in telephone conversations with Elian, the Miami relatives overheard the father telling the boy his real mother would be waiting for him when he came back to Cuba, which was a cruel lie.   On the other side of the coin, the mother was no saint either and was also involved with other boyfriends after the marriage with Juan Miguel.  The media is also not giving any coverage to the quirky behavior of the grandmothers when they visited Elian.  Juan Gonzales’ mother bit Elian’s tongue and made inappropriate contact with his private parts during her visit.  The Catholic President of Barry University, Sister Jeanne O’Laughlin, who was serving as a neutral observer, responded with outrage and denounced the visit.  She now says she was told by one of the grandmother’s of Juan Miguel’s abusive behavior to Elian and his mother.  She now supports Elian’s bid to remain in the States.  Some have suggested that the grandmother’s behavior was either a sign of a cult-like religious curse, or meant to help deter Elian from wanting to return to Cuba.  If it was the latter, it worked very well.  I won’t pretend to know which motive she had, but I am convinced that Elian should not be returned to Cuba.

                Second, I am fed up with Janet Reno and Bill Clinton taking the sacrosanct position of “upholding the rule of law.”  This position is filled with hypocrisy as well.  The law does not require that Elian be returned automatically to Cuba.  On the contrary, he does qualify for political asylum if only for the simple reason that a bloody dictator wants him back so badly.  The boy’s video taped expressions refusing to return to Cuba are bound to be an embarrassment to Castro.  After Castro’s planned Havana “victory” parade for Elian is over and forgotten, Elian will surely be subject to severe indoctrination and/or discipline.  From a legal standpoint, it is also interesting to note that neither of the two other survivors of the failed boat ride to freedom are being deported.  What’s the hurry for Elian?  This is not rule of law, but rather an ongoing collusion between the Clinton administration and the left to sustain the Castro regime.  If Castro is successful in coercing Elian’s return, it will have a chilling effect on other Cubans wishing to defect, knowing that the US cannot be trusted to protect them from Castro’s demands.

                There are several motives which may further explain the collusion between Clinton and Castro.  First, there is a drug connection between the Castro regime and our own government.  A 1996 US drug investigation targeting Fidel Castro's regime was dropped at the insistence of the Clinton Justice Department which claimed that two sources told them the key informant was telling lies about Cuban government involvement.  This wasn’t just any informant.  It was none other than Cuban drug smuggler Jorge Cabrera, who had just written a $20,000 check to the Democratic National Committee, and who had been a guest of the White House.  He was caught bringing in 3 tons of cocaine and several boxes of Cuban cigars. Dropping the investigation would keep Cabrera from spilling the beans.

                Drugs are a cash cow not only for Marxist revolutionaries, but the dark side of the US government as well.  FALN runs drugs to the US through Puerto Rico with CIA complicity, which may also explain part of Clinton’s actions in releasing FALN terrorists from prison.  This was the same CIA faction that shipped arms to Castro during the Cuban revolution, and that worked through the State Department to engineer a cut-off of arms to the pro-US Batista government.  For his part, Castro has served as a conduit between several South American drug cartels and the CIA for years, taking a cut in the profits.  But don’t think Castro is a CIA lackey.  He also works for Moscow, and he can play the blackmail role.  He could blow the whistle on US government involvement in drug smuggling at any time--to the embarrassment of the Clinton administration as well as the Republicans.  Remember that George Bush Sr. was deeply involved in overseeing this clandestine drug operation while serving as CIA director and also while he was VP of the US.  See Rodney Stich’s new book “Drugging America” for details (1-800-437-7389).  Of course Castro is reluctant to bite one of the hands that feeds him since he needs those drug profits as much as the next tyrant. 

                Clinton’s actions might also be intended to demonstrate favoritism to the radical left since the NWO globalist agenda is under fire from those same partners on the far left.  As I have pointed out earlier this year, the far left factions of the NWO in Europe are in a battle for control with the US-British factions.  The WTO riots in Seattle and the current anti-World Bank demonstrations in Washington DC are part of this ongoing rift.  Throwing a bone (in this case throwing a child) to Castro may well be a Clinton tactic to convince the far left that he is still on their side.  I don’t think they are buying it.  The greatest tragedy is that a child is being made the pawn in this international power play.

THE ELIAN CASE:  HELPING TO TRACK THE DARK SIDE OF GOVERNMENT

Every time the US government engages in a major media event intent upon provoking the public to supporting a hidden leftist agenda, they make mistakes and leave untidy bits of evidence which shows the telltale marks of collusion.  I am going to present to you some of this evidence to demonstrate that the Elian Gonzales case has little to do with reuniting a father with an unwilling son.  This is a power-play between the Clinton’s and Castro trying to discredit the Cuban American community so as to help facilitate the normalization of US relations with Cuba.  There is a lot of media propaganda going on here as well as government cover-up and deception necessary to keep this agenda hidden. 

                One of my subscribers asked me if I wouldn’t explain the process of how I go about analyzing news and discovering the signs of collusion, so that he could begin to do this on his own.  This case presents an ideal opportunity to discuss a key technique.  It involves experience, so it can’t be taught directly.  When you have enough experience working in and around the legal field, or government, or the military, or anything that involves the interaction of bureaucracy and power, you develop, over time, a feeling for what it takes to get certain things done.  Without intervention, the wheels of justice, and government, grind very slowly.  So when I see something happen too quickly, or when I see powerful legal roadblocks brushed aside with ease, I know that someone behind the scenes has tapped into some form of power structure to gain an advantage.  You then proceed to find out who is pulling the strings.  

                The trouble with the normal person is that he too easily accepts the simplistic media version (which always omits key information) and fails to ask tough questions about contradictions with reality that an experienced person would see.  For example, in the Filegate Scandal, the media focused on why the White House had hundreds of FBI files on Republican Congressmen and staffers.  The experienced person would see another more important issue--that it was also illegal for the FBI to spy on conservative, law-abiding citizens.  So, the real question is, “What was the FBI doing with these files?”  The answer of this question leads to the inevitable discovery of illegal government operations on a fairly broad scale.  By the way, the media are trained to see these kinds of contradictions, and ask probing questions.  When they fail to do so on obvious key issues, it almost always means they are covering for something or someone.

                In the Elian Gozales case, savvy observers see numerous anomalies with reality and are asking questions like,  “How is it that Juan Miguel, the father, has the costly legal services of Gregory Craig, Clinton’s own personal impeachment attorney?”  “Who made the arrangements?” and “who’s paying the bill?”  Robert Novak reported in the Washington Times that the left-leaning United Methodist Church is paying Craig’s high fees from a special fund created by donors who “wish to remain anonymous.”  Anyone who thinks these instant big dollar donors are ordinary members of the Methodist Church doesn’t know how the real world works. 

                And, lest you think this is just benevolent liberal charity to help an indigent father get back his son, we have to ask, “Why did Greg Craig travel twice, in secret, to Cuba?....to meet with Juan Miguel?”  Nope-- to meet personally with Fidel Castro!”  One disgruntled government agent leaked to Cuban-American leader Diaz-Balart a secret memo from Craig to the White House, stating that he (Craig) “provided Castro with sufficient guarantees that US security personnel would make certain that Elian’s father will not be allowed to defect.”  Again, with experience one should know that Craig couldn’t have made those assurances without prior instructions from the government.  This, of course, implies that the US government is working directly against persons who may be seeking asylum from a Communist tyranny.  We can also infer that the Castro-Clinton team knows that Juan Miguel is being forced to play a role, and that they believe there is a high probability that Juan Miguel would try to defect.

                Here is another interesting question.  How is it that the Miami relatives ended up with Kendall Coffey as their attorney in the Elian case?  Coffey is a long-time Democratic collaborator with Janet Reno when Reno was Attorney General of Florida.  He was chosen by Reno to head up the US Attorney’s office in Miami. Coffey had raised money for Reno to fund her election campaigns.  Coffey offered his services to the Miami Cubans at near pro-bono rates, and, in my opinion, will play a key role in undermining Elian’s case when it gets before the courts (who often skew the law to protect the dark side of government).  Coffey’s presence is particularly offensive to some Cuban Americans since he was forced to resign as US attorney in disgrace after he was accused of biting a lap dancer on the derriere in a notorious Miami striptease club.   I’m sure Coffey sold his services to the Miami relatives on his ability to gain access to Janet Reno.  That’s an understatement!  But, in reality, Coffey’s presence is typical of dark side operations where they attempt to infiltrate and control both sides of any legal battle.

                There’s more.  How is it that the pediatrician advising the Justice Department on how best to handle Elian Gonzalez is a long-time Clinton confidant and former member of Hillary’s health care task force?  Only reliable Clinton cronies were allowed on this secretive panel.  Predictably, Dr. Irwin Redlener told the press that Elian is being "horrendously exploited" and should be immediately removed from Miami relatives' home.   Still not convinced there is collusion going on?  Read on.

 

RENO GETS A PHONE CALL

Finally, there is Janet Reno’s admission to the Mayor of Miami that she got a controlling phone call directing her actions.  All savvy government watchers know that lower level subordinates and high level leaders get private phone calls from time to time directing their actions.   Sadly only the dark side of government has the right to tap government phones, and the FBI isn’t about to reveal the secret collusion of its ultimate leaders.  Occasionally a mid level official or judge will let it slip that he “got a phone call” directing how he should rule in a case.  Here we have a similar slip that was not meant to become public.

                Mayor Corollo of Miami said that during his negotiations with the Attorney General, that Reno had suggested bringing both sides of the family together in a government secured compound (that would ring warning bells for me) for a period of up to two weeks, where the Miami relatives and Elian's father would determine the boy's custody amongst themselves.  By the next day Corollo said that Reno had reneged on the offer, without explanation.  On a WABC broadcast Corollo told of his follow-up conversation with Janet Reno:

                “The following day, Wednesday, I called her from my office...In fact, we had several telephone conferences with her. I was present and my colleague, the mayor of Miami-Dade County was also present in my office.  And I said to her, 'Madam Attorney General, why was it that when we left your office on Tuesday we had at least an agreement from you that you were going to be flying to Miami the next day. You said that you would call both of us later on, on Tuesday evening so that we could give you the list of people and go over the locations where you could meet with the different leaders that you said you wanted us to bring to you to meet with in Miami. And you've never called us. Why?  And the answer that she gave me was, 'Mr. Mayor, I received a phone call.'"  Corollo said Reno refused to elaborate or say who it was who directed her actions.  Don’t be too quick to assume it was Clinton.  There are other bosses as well.

                Last week I mentioned the US government’s drug connections with Cuba as well as the long-term globalist agenda of gaining normal trade relations with Cuba.  Cuban-American leader Diaz-Balart also believes that the left’s quest for normalization of relations with Cuba is the underlying reason for making Elian a cause celebre.  He feels that there are numerous forces working to discredit and undermine the credibility of the Miami Cuban-American community, who stand as a major political obstacle against recognition of Cuba.  He notes, correctly, how the media is constantly trying to bait Cubans who are keeping a vigil around Elian’s home.  The cameras never show films of the peaceful candlelight prayer vigils, but only of the few moments each day when the Cubans are induced to counter the press’ provocative challenges and questions.  Those shots of angry faces are all that air on the evening news. 

                Also notably omitted from news coverage are the items that would correctly showcase Castro’s threatening speeches about Elian on Cuban radio, including his openly stated plans to house Elian and his father in a special building with integral school facilities to reindoctrinate Elian when he returns.  Anyone who thinks a Cuban father will have American style custody and parental rights in Cuba does not know how the world works in a Stalinist regime.   The media has also carefully evaded the airing of the charges by Elian’s mother’s relatives recounting in a sworn affidavit of the physical abuse Juan Miguel inflicted upon Elian’s mother, Elizabeth, during their marriage--in one case, causing her to be hospitalized.

WHITE HOUSE BUILT A HIGH-TECH SHIELD TO COVER-UP ILLEGAL CONTACTS

The US government has a long tradition of keeping records on everything, including its own SECRET internal operations.  Now that the ratio of legitimate and legal government activities to its dark side activities is diminishing, especially during the Clinton administration, this meticulous and redundant tracking system, comprised of tape recorders, phone logs, computer tapes and paper reports, threatens to expose more dark side government activities than protect legal ones.  Some of these systems are required by law in order to meet congressional accountability standards, since Congress pays the bills of the White House.  But most of the top secret tracking systems are kept within the bowels of the dark side of government anyway and Congress is never allowed to know of their existence.  They are used for purposes of internal coercion of employees who may threaten to reveal dark side activities.  Occasionally, bits of information from these tracking systems surfaces as leaks to the liberal press when the Powers That Be (PTB) want to destroy some government agent or high level leader (like Richard Nixon). 

                The White House has spent nearly $70 million in the past 8 years changing out the old tracking systems and replacing them with new ones which deny congressional and OMB auditors and investigators, access to the crucial links between illegal activities and contacts and those who actually made those contacts.  Here is what they have done.  As I reported earlier, Northrop-Grumman was brought in to change over the White House computer system and modify the email tracking and recording system.  Unnamed programmers, working directly for the White, outside the Northrop contract, apparently modified the tracking program so that two sections of the White House, including those of the Clinton’s and their most trusted aides, would not have their emails logged or recorded.  These sensitive emails were routed to a separate bank of computers, so that when Congress supoenaed electronic records relative to illegal campaign contributions, these emails (over a million of them) would not show up.

                The White House recording system, which tape records all calls, has been split into two sections--one public for non-sensitive employees (which is kept available for Congress), and another which is classified “top secret” for National Security employees (which has been broadened to include all key White House political hacks who have conversations to hide).  Most of these calls are done on secure, encrypted phones.  Congress knows something exists in this area, but is never allowed to have access.  Additionally, the president and first lady have special phones that supposedly have no recording devices so as to ensure their privacy.  However, it wouldn’t surprise me if these were also tied into the “top secret” system.  The dark side always likes to capture plenty of “dirt” on high level officials just to keep them in line--and the Clintons are prime game.  With the high level of technology used by government today, virtually no one can guarantee they are immune to privacy invasions if they are speaking on public systems.  Spying back and forth between various factions of the dark side of government is rampant, according to the few CIA and FBI defectors who are still alive.  This is how mid-level operatives protect their turf and give themselves insurance against being taken down by other factions.

                Recently, it has come to light that the White House spent $25 million modifying their telephone call tracking system to make sure phone logs throughout the White House system do NOT record the actual telephone number of the person making the call.  Virtually all telephone logging equipment on the market today tracks all routing from the initiating telephone to the destination phone.  What the White House had to do to give general anonymity to its illegal activities was to modify the system (at great expense) so that all specific traces to initiating phones would be generalized into a group area (like the West Wing of the White House--a huge staff building--or the East Wing, etc).  So, now, while an investigator could track how many calls were going to China, he could not detect who was making the calls--a perfect way to allow the White House to later claim “plausible deniability” and defer blame to the ever-available “rogue” employee excuse.  WorldNetDaily’s Paul Sperry did some fine investigative work during the past month detailing this powerful telephone shielding system.  He found out from Sheryl Hall, a former White House official who managed the PBX switch and the AT&T contractors, that  "They had the software changed out with AT&T, so you don't see the originating telephone number at the user's desk."  Sperry comments, “By masking international phone activity, the White House may have withheld potentially valuable information from federal investigators looking into scandals such as Chinagate.  For years, officials have been telling Congress and federal prosecutors that they can't turn over more detailed phone records, which have been subpoenaed, because of phone  system limitations.”  What they've failed to mention, says Sperry, is that “they paid AT&T  programmers to install those limitations.”  When Sperry questioned a current White House telephone manager, he replied, “I'm not allowed to talk about it. That's what I've been instructed to do."    He said it was a matter of security, which would be an illegal use of the “national security” shield, since the White House phone system is not classified.

                While routinely thumbing through AT&T's long-distance records, Hall says she was shocked by spikes in White House calls to certain countries during and after the 1996 Clinton-Gore campaign.  "Each month I would review the phone records," she said, "and I'd see hundreds of calls to China, hundreds of calls to Switzerland, hundreds of calls to France, each month in 1996 and 1997 and 1998."   There were also huge spikes in telephone traffic during 1996 to the Defense Ministry in Beijing and to the Indonesian based Lippo Group, controlled by the Chinese.  The flurry of calls to Switzerland in 1996 is a key indication of money laundering operations associated with hiding campaign contributions as well as other dark side black budget operations.  There were no other major international events taking place in Switzerland at that time that would have justified this spike. 

 

MORE DARK SIDE EVIDENCE FROM THE ELIAN SAGA

The Elian case has generated a new flood of suspicious government watchers who are scrutinizing Janet Reno’s and Greg Craig’s every move.  A few fortuitous leaks are flowing out of the White House cover-up headquarters that continue to cast an evil light on the governments motives.  Apparently Clinton lawyer Greg Craig warned every major media head to censor the upcoming raid on the Gonzales home, giving evidence that the negotiations were a sham.  Note the last sentence where Craig encourages the networks to work in collusion to hide the truth--something we know must be going on.  Here are key parts of the fax:

[fax stamp:]ORIGINAL FAX: 4/21/2000 20:10 PM - From:  Law Offices WILLIAMS & CONNOLLY, LLP 725 Twelfth Street, NW Washington, D.C.  20005 202-434-5000 Fax: 202-434-5029

From: Gregory Craig, April 20, 2000 [addressed to major media outlets]

                I am writing on behalf of Mr. Juan Miguel Gonzalez.  We have read news reports that the house in Miami where Juan Miguel's son is being held is being "wired" for full camera coverage of any effort by federal authorities to take Elian Gonzalez into custody.  I am writing to ask that you please refrain from broadcasting any such coverage.

 

RENO MAY FACE CONTEMPT CHARGE--BUT DON’T COUNT ON IT

Reno’s forces claimed they didn’t need a court order to seize Elian.  If that is true, why did they go to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta to request such a court order?  It was denied.  Reno then went to a local U.S. Magistrate Judge Robert L. Dube to get a generic “concealed property” search warrant.  The judge willingly complied by altering the language of this stolen property warrant to include the term “person “ in the form of one child, Elian Gonzales--who was neither stolen nor concealed.  The case number on the warrant was blank.  This was a sham piece of paper to give the color of law to the “jack-booted INS thugs” who made the raid.  This was the first change of custody in American history executed without a court order and at the point of a gun.

                ANALYSIS:  All of these actions are grounds for the Court to hold Reno in contempt, if the Miami relatives want to pursue it.  I am not optimistic.  First, the Miami relatives have a legal and negotiations team which includes Reno friends and advotcates who will continue to sabotage the case.  Second, who would exercise the Court’s contempt notice on the nation’s highest law enforcer?  Congress has no enforcement authority, and the courts have only a few token officers.  Clinton would have to fire Reno and appoint another AG to prosecute--which is highly unlikely.  One of the biggest flaws in our current separation of power doctrine is that no one has real authority to prosecute the government when the entire executive branch and Department of Justice become filled with co-conspirators to obstruct justice.  Impeachment has now become so maligned as to be useless.

 

FRAUD IN POLLING

There were a lot of phony polls published on the Elian Gonzales issue.  Informed persons were almost unanimously against the government’s position.  Ignorant Americans were supportive when the polls played only upon the father-son custody case.  This discrepancy is sad but understandable, given the denial of crucial information to the public.  Public opinion is regularly manipulated by selective polling of predictable liberal areas of the country, known to give a certain result.  Pollsters also use carefully worded questions to lead unsophisticated people to predictable conclusions.  During the impeachment process ABC’s Tim Russert told Larry Nichols, an independent information source for the establisment media, that NBC’s internal tracking polls showed that 80% of the people wanted Clinton removed from office.  After seeing NBC’s newscoverage touting the figure that 70% of the people wanted Clinton to stay in office, Nichols challenged Russert in private.  Nichols said,  “You lying son of a gun, you told me that your tracking polls showed 80% of the people wanted Clinton out of office – then you tell  the public that 70% of the people want him to stay.  Russert responded, “Well, those tracking polls are for our internal use only, we can’t release those for public consumption. The polls we released  were the ones we paid for outside pollsters to do. Those are the ones we release.”   Credits for this information goes to Jim Condit Jr., Director, Citizens for a Fair Vote Count.

ASPEN INSTITUTE CONNECTION TO ELIAN’S STAY AT WYE RIVER PLANTATION

Elian Gonzalez was removed from Andrews AFB to the Wye River Plantation on Maryland’s eastern shore last week.  This complex of high priced conference centers, often used for international negotiations, is owned by none other than the Aspen Institute--one of the world’s foremost covert cheerleaders for the global NWO.  One of my subscribers noted that when this ownership connection became public on the Internet, the Aspen Institute suddenly removed all references to its ownership of Wye River from its website.   In the meantime, several major news outlets on the web had picked up the story linking Aspen to Wye River.  Suddenly there was a complete purging of those stories as well.  They simply disappeared from the archives, as if they had never been written.   

                ANALYSIS:  Clearly the Powers That Be (PTB) don’t want people to see the interplay of the global insiders with the inner workings of the so-called “rule of law” in the US Department of Justice.  I also found some other interesting connections that point to a strong linkage between Greg Craig, Clinton’s lawyer who now serves Elian’s father (via Fidel Castro and the leftist National Council of Churches) and the dark side of the government.  Greg Craig was a Skull and Bones inductee at Yale University and rose to notoriety in his early legal career by defending John Hinkley, who had attempted to assassinate President Reagan.  Hinkley had all the markings of a CIA “cut-out.”  Cut-outs are CIA assets that are laundered out of the agency through various false covers, so the agency can disavow any relationship.  The typical sign I look for is someone who mysteriously “disappears” for a year or two without a trace and then suddenly surfaces in public, refusing to say where he has been.  That is exactly what happened to John Hinkley.  The only thing he did take care to document during his two year absence was a visit to a psychiatrist to establish his insanity defense.  The fact that Greg Craig came out early in his career defending someone like Hinkley, to me, speaks of his long-term commitment to serving the insider power structure.  There is no coincidences in who the controlled courts appoint as attorneys for government patsies like Oswald, Ruby, Hinkley, Sirhan-Sirhan, or Tim McVeigh.  All the defense lawyers in these cases were, in my opinion, connected to the dark side of government.  In every case, there is evidence that these lawyers and judges made sure their clients were convicted and that during the trial their clients had no contact with the public where they could reveal how they were set up for the fall.

 

CHRONIC LYING IS A HABIT WITH THE CLINTON ADMINISTRATION

The Elian Gonzalez saga is another in the long list of outright lies manufactured by the dark side of the US government to cover federal agent behavior that would be repulsive to Americans.  The US Department of Justice (DOJ) official report on the Miami raid to take custody of Elian Gonzalez reads like a “Pack of Lies,” says NBC cameraman Tony Zumbado, who was physically attacked by the agents.  According to a DOJ spokesman, “News footage of the operation clearly shows that the team members acted with discipline and restraint.”  The report specifically prints published debriefing reports by individual INS agents involved in the raid stating, unequivocally, that there was “no profanity used,” and that no one was physically attacked or even threatened to be shot. 

                Multiple witnesses have come forth to refute every one of these statements.  For example, Gonzalez family friend Roberto Curbelo said he heard one of the agents shout at Marisleysis Gonzalez, Elian's cousin, “Where is the f-----g boy?”  Dalrymple, Elian’s rescuer, also claimed another agent used multiple forms of ugly profanity as the team left the bedroom.  Others said almost every command by the agents was accompanied by a stream of profanity.  Obviously this isn’t a simple case of isolated forgetfulness on the part of the agents involved, but chronic habits of verbal abuse.  This use of profanity and vulgarity is backed-up by virtually every other experience of people who have experienced a SWAT team take-down.  I don’t think the government could find a legitimate witness anywhere in the world who could testify that SWAT teams act with courtesy, and yet the government has the audacity to claim their agents acted “as perfect gentlemen.”   This is ludicrous on its face that “no profanity was used.”  I’m surprised Reno’s thugs didn’t at least take a middle-ground approach, admitting to some “regrettable” profanity, which would have been more believable.

                As for the government’s claim that no one was physically harmed, NBC’s Zumbado testified that “the agents were physically and verbally abusive; they said every bad word in the book and kept me from doing my job.  We got maced, we got kicked, we got roughed up.”  He also added that “federal agents kicked me in the stomach and yelled, ‘Don't move or we'll shoot.’” Zumbado also told NBC's Dateline program: “My sound man got hit with a shotgun butt on the head, dragged outside – he was halfway in – and he was dragged out to the fence and left there, and they told him if he moved they'd shoot.”  Zumbado also said that federal agents disabled his camera and yanked out its audio cable.   Zumbado injuries were sufficient to require hospitalization.  He came home on a stretcher.  For the feds, it seems that “the bigger the lie, the better.”   Even  Reno’s friend Kendal Coffey who weaseled his way into the Gonzalez clan as their lawyer (by offering “free” services), couldn’t back up the feds’ disinformation.  Coffey said he was astounded at the report's claims, specifically that no pepper or tear gas was used.   “It was clearly inside the house....I saw a 5-year-old in convulsions from the spray,” he said. 

                ANALYSIS:  Of course, this is nothing compared to the lying the government engaged in relative to the TWA 800 cover-up where the testimonies of over 100 witnesses to a missile attack on the airliner were coerced, suborned or otherwise denied.   A series of lies has even surfaced relative to the latest spy scandal at Los Alamos where several hard drives were reported missing from high security vaults.  The drives contained top secret data on nuclear weapons, and public disclosure of the theft was delayed for weeks after the initial discovery.  The Department of Energy is claiming that the investigation was hampered by the effects of the fire in the area.   Apparently, this too is a lie.  Los Alamos employees have leaked the story that the discovery happened long before the fire.  The bottom line is that as long as the media continues to cover for the government by not giving ongoing press coverage to the contradictions and cover-ups, the public will never lose its naive trust in the statements of high officials.   I suggest that the brazenness of government perfidy (lying) is a reflection of the confidence the dark side has in their control of the media.  One cannot exist without the other.  

               

WACO COVER-UP GETS DEADLY--AGAIN

Carlos Ghigliotti, owner of Infrared Technology, was a man who knew too much.  He was found dead in his locked office, slumped over his desk.  Foul play is almost certain.  Ghigliotti was on retainer as an investigator for the congressional committee studying the role of FBI agents in shooting Branch Davidians as church members attempted to flee the burning compound.  According to attorney David T. Hardy, who has been to Ghigliotti’s lab and office, Ghighiotti had a lot of high tech equipment and had discovered numerous proofs that the government was actively attempting to falsify the results of the infrared reenactment.  Hardy said that Ghigliotti had a large stack of sensitive files on the Waco case, sitting on his desk, that implicated the FBI in using drug monies to fund the Waco operation.  Those files are now missing from the office, and provide one of the prime motives for Ghigliotti’s elimination.  I don’t expect the autopsy will come up with much.  Every major political killing in recent years, from Vince Foster to Ron Brown, has had the autopsy results tampered with.  According to Hardy, here is what Ghigliotti was on to:

                First, Ghigliotti thought the re-creation infrared tape was “junk.”  Not only was it digitally altered to show less detail, but the aircraft wasn't flying at the right altitude.  Neither did the contractors verify that the sensor was functioning comparable to the Waco flyover.  The temperatures differed significantly compared to the original hot April day in 1993, guaranteeing that the results would be different.  Second, Ghigliotti also had access to the 1993 pilot’s taped conversations and reported that the FBI pilots were using the IR equipment to monitor the Davidian’s water supply and had notified their bosses when the elevated water tank above the compound was empty.  That’s when the attack came--just when the government knew the Davidians would have to soon surrender due to lack of water.  Since the FBI attacked when the end of the siege was imminent, it raises the suspicion that the government wanted no witnesses to survive.  The original footage shows agents firing on the opening to the underground storm shelter, to make sure those inside could not get out.  His view was that they were gassing the underground vault to pin Davidians in place during the fire.

                Ghigliotti thought it preposterous that judge Smith would allow Vector Data Research to do the re-enactment of the IR video.  Vector Data is owned by a conglomerate of defense contractors who work for the Pentagon, NSA, and FBI.  These are defacto employees of the agencies on trial.  Predictably, Vector Data claimed the duration of flashes on the 1993 Waco FLIR is too long for the flashes to be gunshots, hence they are more likely sunlight reflections.  Another government lackey, defense contractor Maryland Advanced Development Laboratory (MADLAB) agreed.  Ghigliotti said this is bunk. In fact, they weren’t long flashes at all.  When the video is slowed down, it is clear they are rapid bursts of flashes, similar to automatic rifle fire.  For an expert to fail to notice this is highly suspicious, he thought.

                Vector Data also discounts rifle fire because “the flashes on the 1993 Waco tape do not show shooters."   This is both true and false.  A Forward-looking Infrared (FLIR) camera only sees relative temperature. That is why the government insisted on doing the re-creation on a much cooler day where the test shooters would still be visible to the camera.  On a hot day, the bodies of the shooters would quickly heat up and would appear as the same temperature as the surrounding ground--disappearing from view.  Contrary to government claims and media reports, shooters can be seen next to the gunshot flashes on 1993 Waco FLIR, but only just after exiting their vehicles.  As soon as their clothing heats up in the sun, they do become invisible to the camera.

                According to attorney Hardy, Carlos Ghigliotti had in his possession several media video tapes taken through gigantic telephoto lenses, from one or two miles away. Ghigliotti could import video into his computers  showing in one window the regular media video and, in another, the FBI infrared film side by side.  When he would see a flash on the FLIR video, he would search for an agent shouldering a weapon in the corresponding frames from the media video, and BINGO--a match.  On one video segment, he magnified it and found it showed the agent shouldering the weapon, taking a shot and then turning to look at the media cameras.  When the agent saw he was being filmed, he quickly ducked behind a tank for cover.  The FLIR then showed more flashes from that area as the agent continued to fire upon the compound.  This is the kind of evidence the government could not allow to exist.  The fact that some committee staffer gave Carlos confidential files showing FBI use of drug funds has implications as well.  My suspicion is that the staffer suspected that the committee was trying to help the FBI whitewash the case, and leaked these files to Ghigliotti to ensure someone else would bring it up in their report to Congress.  It may have been those leaked files that forced the dark side to act.

ISRAEL EAVESDROPS ON WHITE HOUSE

Over a year ago, a CIA insider leaked the story to Insight Magazine that the FBI had discovered an ongoing Israeli scheme to eavesdrop on government secure phones.  Insight broke this blockbuster story last week and the major media has strangely ignored it.  For the past year Insight has been in contact with the FBI trying to get them to confirm the leaks, without success.  I think Insight hoped that breaking the story would force the White House and the FBI to be more forthcoming with details.  But, so far, nothing but silence–except from a few former agents with direct knowledge of the affair.  “All I can tell you is that we think we know how it was done,” an intelligence executive told Insight.  A high government official would only admit awareness of the FBI probe.  He claimed, “It is a politically sensitive matter.  I can’t comment on it beyond telling you that anything involving Israel on this particular matter is off-limits.  It’s that hot.”  

                According to Insight, FBI agents had been tracking an Israeli businessman working for a local phone company.  The man’s wife works under diplomatic cover at the Israeli Embassy in Washington.   As in almost all embassies, including those of the US, many intelligence operatives masquerade as embassy employees.   Israel’s intelligence agency (Mossad) will often train husband and wife teams.  One will work in an embassy and therefore have the privilege of being accompanied by the spouse.  Since Israel is closely tied to the CIA, spouses of embassy employees are often allowed to get jobs within the US.  In this case, the husband worked his way into a job at the local telephone company.  When federal agents made a search of his work area they found a list of the FBI’s most sensitive  telephone numbers, including the Bureau’s “black” lines used for wiretapping.  According to the article, some of the listed numbers were lines that FBI  counterintelligence used to keep track of the suspected Israeli spy operation.  The hunted were tracking the hunters with their own telephone lines.

                This discovery by Division 5 of the FBI (a little known counter-intel section of the agency) has supposedly sent shock waves through the White House.  The FBI discovered enough information to suspect that the highest levels of the State Department were compromised, as well as the White House and the National Security Council (NSC).  The NSC is where all the top insiders are assigned to guide the president on how he should act (on behalf of the Powers That Be).  A local phone manager had become suspicious in late 1996 or early 1997 about activities by a subcontractor working on phone-billing software and hardware designs for the CIA.  The CIA was obviously trying to modify the system to stop the Israeli “mole” from eavesdropping.

                Political analysts have put forth the idea that the leak about the Israeli spying was an attempt to put pressure on Israel to stop its sale of AWACS early warning aircraft to China.  Another spy scandal on the heels of the Jonathan Pollard case might put Israel’s foreign aid funding on hold.  Israel has been promised billions in aid from the Clintons for giving in to Syria’s territorial demands in Israel’s Lebanese security zone. 

                ANALYSIS:  Once again, what happens on the surface rarely reflects reality.  The Clinton administration is only feigning being upset over the AWACS deal between Israel and China.  As I pointed out in previous briefs, Israel has served as an alternate pipeline for technology transfers to its own enemies and US enemies (on behalf of the Clinton administration) for years.  Israel has shipped weapons from US secret stockpiles to Iran, Iraq, Russia, China and even arch-enemy Syria.  Like any “cut out” for government operations, Israel is used to “taking the heat” for secret US operations and then counting on being secretly compensated with other back-door funds.   The real reason for Israel’s espionage lies elsewhere.

                Keep in mind that Israel has a split aspect to its government, just like the US.  There are patriotic, pro-Israel government and military officials and then there are the “dark side” forces working for the NWO, trying to undermine Israeli sovereignty.  The dark side of the Israeli government controls both major parties in Israel (Likud and Labor) just like our Republican and Democratic parties are controlled.  Like our own CIA, the Israeli Mossad has its dark side too.  The black ops side of the Mossad is closely linked with the black side of our CIA and gets most of its secret funding by working for the CIA doing international assassinations and running CIA drug operations for profit.  See Rodney Stich’s book, Drugging America  Order line: 1-800-247-7389

                The current eavesdropping could have been done by either the white or black side of Israel’s Mossad.  I suspect it was by the white side.  The black side has access to more high tech ways of tapping government phones, owing to its relationship with the CIA.   The Israeli white side clearly knows that Israel is being undermined by its own political leaders (who always consult with Henry Kissinger before entering into any US brokered negotiations).  They would have the most to gain from wiretapping the government’s phones. 

                Loyal Israeli officials have long been suspicious of the US.  Back during the ‘67 war the Israelis attacked the US spy ship “liberty” in the Mediterranean as it was steaming at full speed toward the Israeli war zone.  The US and Israel both publicly declared the incident an accident of “mistaken identity.”  Both knew that was a lie and went to great lengths to falsify the official US inquiry.  The Israeli military was just getting ready to launch a surprise attack on the Golan Heights–then occupied by Syrians, led by Russian commanders.  The Israelis knew that Russia had penetrated US intelligence, and that the interception of Israeli communications by the US spy ship would alert the Russians, so they warned the US to back off.  The US refused and the Israelis attacked the ship–whose US flags were clearly visible.  

                I point this out to show that even though Israel is an “ally” of the US, it doesn’t trust the US anymore.  Both factions in Israel know that our government is no longer working for liberty, but rather, to further a New World Order (NWO).  Other allies are equally suspicious.  France, for example, is loyal to another faction of the NWO and spies on the US.  In turn, the US spies on them and everyone else.  The same is true for Germany.   There is an arrogance about US superiority that foreign allies resent.  Even as other nations, like Israel, have bought into the NWO as their “only alternative” for survival, they all feel that the US can’t be trusted anymore–especially since the ECHELON global spy system became public.  When multiple factions are trying to build a world government, each faction knows that the ultimate result will never be democratic.  They know a power struggle for ultimate control will someday have to happen.  Neither of the two Israeli factions has any hope of controlling the NWO–Israel is too small.  The dark side in Israel is trying to buy a protected position within the NWO power center, and the Zionist-nationalist side is desperately maneuvering to maintain its independence.

THE COLUMBINE FINAL REPORT: An Amateur Warren Report

The Jefferson County sheriff department’s final report on the investigation of the Columbine High School shootings reads more like a high school drama production than an investigative document.  The report, written by 3 women writers hired by the sheriff’s department, is not professional in either tone or approach.  It makes wordy, emotional comments rather than sticking to the facts.  It tries overly hard to paint a confused, irrational picture of events so as to justify all the failures of authorities to intervene quickly to save lives.   The writers comment and argue for one position only–that there were only two shooters–and yet the report systematically refuses to discuss any specific evidence that would allow a reader to make an independent judgment of any controversy.  This report is pure propaganda.  Like the multi-tome Warren Commission report on the JFK assassination, the report’s entire purpose is to cover-up all evidence contrary to the desired lone assassins conclusion.  What can’t be covered up is omitted altogether or simply explained away as “misunderstandings” by witnesses. 

                There are 15 lawsuits pending over government actions or inaction at Columbine, and the report is careful to evade the specific facts or evidence that the plaintiffs need to bring government and police officials to justice.   I’ve have waded through most of it and it is my opinion that the report is noteworthy not by what is in it, but by what is explicitly absent.   The report doesn't answer or explain:

·         why it took SWAT teams more than 45 minutes to enter the school and 3 hours to reach the library.

·         why teacher Sanders and other students were not reached until hours AFTER the shooting stopped.

·         why NATO units and a 2 star general were involved and how they happened to be in the area.

·         why students were pressured to change their stories to conform to the two-shooter theory

·         why there was a massive military presence at the Columbine memorial services months later.

 

The report goes out of its way to paint a detailed scenario that gives the impression of completeness.  It is easy to do since there are so many trivial details that can be used to obscure more important ones.  The report describes the initial confusion and bewilderment of law enforcement on the scene, claiming there were too many agencies, too many conflicting 911 reports, and not enough coordination.  That may sound plausible, and certainly explains why they would wait for a unified SWAT team to arrive for the actual assault.  But after the SWAT team arrived fairly quickly, we are given no credible explanation of why they waited and waited to enter.  This is something they are trained to do without excessive planning.  The reader cries out for answers and gets none.  The report doesn’t even bring up the question directly. 

                In the report’s introductory remarks it uses a standard legal trick to justify its refusal to discuss details, saying this is still an “open investigation” and that “to preserve the privacy of witnesses who are not yet in the public eye, we have excluded certain names and details from this report.”  What an understatement.  There is only one reason those witnesses are not yet in the public eye–because the authorities don’t want them there.  Just like the manipulated results of the TWA 800 investigation, over 80 witnesses to the missile attack were coerced and threatened into silence or into changing their stories.   Many student witnesses have reported identical treatment at the hands of federal and state investigators.  Clearly every official had their marching orders: to gather evidence that only Harris and Klebold were involved in the Columbine massacre.   In May of 1999 Mark Taylor, a Columbine student injured in the shooting was still in the hospital.  A friend came to visit and found Mark’s mother rather upset.  She said her son was getting death threats–someone is threatening to finish off the injured students and the rest of Columbine.  She also said that so many Columbine students know of other assailants being involved that she sees no way the truth about this could be covered up.  That assessment has proven to be very naive.

                Internet reporter John Quinn of News Hawk, Inc (newshawk@iname.com) Tel: 707 984-7178 was one of the few able to penetrate the threat barriers and get one of the eye witness students to talk.  Quinn’s initial conversations with the parents of one student, Chris Whisher, indicated they were clearly afraid, saying they didn’t want him talking to their son.  When Quinn called back to ask the parents another question, Chris himself answered the phone and seemed willing to talk.   Chris told Quinn, “They were just shooting everywhere" He added that the suspect who shot at his group was wearing a black coat, sunglasses and a BERET.  All the others who saw Klebold and Harris said they were wearing ear protectors and white and black T shirts, respectively.  The surveillance cameras confirmed the T shirt apparel. 

Chris told him that lots of students saw other shooters–as many as 7 or 8 at one time.  He said he knew personally of a girl who was coerced into changing her testimony by sheriffs investigators, and made to say that she had only seen Harris and Klebold.  Quinn said Chris reverified that statement in another session and added that other friends of his had personally witnessed a group of 7-8 individuals in trench coats, with weapons, shooting in a different part of the school simultaneous to Harris and Klebold firing weapons elsewhere.  Quinn asked whether his friend knew if some or all of these other shooters were students.  He responded that only some were students.  Chris himself told Quinn that he was later requestioned and pressured by investigators, who then tried to make a substantial effort to "help" Chris "understand how it may have only been Harris and Klebold" that he had seen at Columbine!

 

I reported last year in July how another witness was worked over by investigators to convince her that what she saw wasn’t possible.  Columbine High School art teacher Patti Nielson, wounded in the school attack, made unwitting statements that cast grave doubts on the official two- gunmen theory. Nielson and student Brian Anderson observed and were shot by what she said was a “MAN outside the school” on the upper terrace using a semi-automatic pistol.  She said he was dressed in black and was shooting a gun toward the parking lot.  She yelled at him to stop because  she "thought he was doing a dumb thing."   She then said the man turned, grinned and shot at her.  Describing him initially as “small” she later recanted upon being told by officials who the shooters “really were” and said, "I thought he was small, but I found out later he was pretty tall!"   However, during the prior events, the teacher (trained to see details) continually referred to the assailant as a man, both during her 911 call and in other statements.

                Despite all the harassment, there were numerous students who refused to be cowed by the pressure.  The report tried to pass off these witnesses as an anomaly with this self-serving statement:  “Despite the supporting evidence, both from ballistics and eyewitness accounts, that only two people, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, were the gunmen on April 20, 1999, seven eyewitnesses remain firm in their account of another person with a gun that day.”  Naturally, the report denies us the specific testimony of these holdouts.  In fact, they weren’t just saying there was ONE other person, but multiple shooters.  I’m sure they would have an interesting rebuttal to this report–something like “I can count, can’t I???”   TWA 800 witnesses to the missile kill were equally outraged when FBI agents kept trying to convince them that what they saw going UP must have, in fact been coming DOWN!  There is a pattern to these cover-ups.

                In conclusion #4 the report boldly proclaims,  “Physical evidence does not indicate the presence of a third shooter.  No known evidence exists that anyone had prior knowledge of the killer’s plans.”  Wrong on both counts.  Here are the facts on the physical evidence:

·         Art teacher Patti Nielson was shot by a man from the outside of the school.  The bullet penetrated a sliding glass door.  That’s PHYSICAL EVIDENCE of a third shooter since Harris and Klebold were already inside the school and had entered from the opposite and lower side of the building. Curiously, no mention was made of this glass with the exterior penetration–a convenient omission.

·         Jefferson County District Court Judge Henry Nieto on May 28, 1999 refused to release autopsy reports on victims of the Columbine High School shootings, saying "the  community" would suffer substantial harm if the reports were released.  This order conveniently included the bodies of Klebold and Harris, so we have no way to independently ascertain the claim that they shot themselves.  Once again, no physical evidence exists because it has been hidden by the court.

·         The FBI’s notorious ballistics lab did all the certification that all bullets came from Harris and Klebold’s weapons.  Of course, there was no verifiable evidence trail produced to prove this assertion.  A good evidence trail would have autopsy physicians tagging each bullet as it came from each body and having them analyzed by non-FBI crime labs.  The true evidentiary trail probably exists, but is being kept secret because it goes against the stated results.  Falsification of evidence is nothing new to government agencies.  The FBI has been known to swap bullets at will, as they did in the Oswald-JFK case trying to shore up the lone assassin theory.  The government had JFK’s body altered enroute to Bethesda Naval Hospital to remove other bullet fragments and coerced the Navy doctor to change his autopsy report to match the altered results.  Similar coercion took place in the Ron Brown autopsy and with Vince Foster’s murder.  Incidentally, the Supreme Court weighed in this week on the side of cover-up by refusing to allow Vince Foster’s autopsy photos to be released to the public.

 

Here are the facts about the report’s claim that no one had “prior knowledge of the killer’s plans.”

·         The report conveniently mentions the two video tapes of Klebold and Harris talking among themselves about their bombs and plans, but fails to mention the pre-enactment video made by the Trench Coat Mafia in 1997.  This video taped a practice run by the Trench Coat Mafia of this massacre in the actual halls of Columbine High School.  True, Klebold and Harris weren’t in this video, but the cameraman was none other than the son of FBI special agent Fusilier, the FBI psychologist who is a paid FBI investigator for the Columbine tragedy.  The young Fusilier was a Columbine student at the time and a member of the Trench Coat Mafia.  Two of the participants in the pre-enactment video were the Brown brothers, who were at Columbine during the shooting, and who knew Klebold and Harris.  John Quinn pointed out something suspicious in the Brown brothers’testimonies about their involvement during the massacre.  Quinn said, “It had previously been reported that Brook (Brown’s) older brother was inside the building and this fact was known by the elder Brown when he claims he was warned away from the school by Harris.  Brooks uses this alibi to shore up his case that he would never have been involved in any way with the massacre.  Another testified that Brook’s brother was on the stairway and was fired at directly by Harris but not hit.  What's interesting however is that in their appearance on Oprah Winfrey's show on  May 20, 1999, it is the older Brown boy who said he was in the cafeteria when the shooting broke out and he never saw either Harris or Klebold directly!”  These are highly contradictory versions and indicate someone is not telling the truth.

 

CONCLUSION:  Whenever multiple agencies of government join together in a massive cover-up of this nature, it always points to a broad conspiracy involving media, federal agencies, local police, and judges.  Naturally it can’t be controlled except from the power base of the federal government.  Choosing Colorado for an operation like this was no accident.  I have detailed before some of the evidence that the Denver area is heavily controlled by multiple black operations of government.  The CIA owns and controls banks, airlines, S&Ls, real estate companies and law firms.  It also has a black helicopter operation working out of the old Buckley Auxiliary Airfield.  In addition, there is highly supressed evidence of a secret underground facility within the new Denver International Airport–which many suspect was the real cause of the massive cost overruns and delays experienced in construction.  Worst of all, the government controls many federal and state judges in Colorado and particularly in the Denver district.  It was no accident that the Tim McVeigh trial was moved to Denver.  My take on Columbine is that, much like the OKC bombing, this was a dark side operation to accelerate an evil political agenda.  The Murrah building was bombed in concert with undiscovered agent provocateurs (John Doe #1 and #2) to help the media spin this as an act of terrorism by anti-government conservatives.  Columbine’s purpose was to engender a massive outpouring of propaganda for and in behalf of gun control.  Both have been only partially successful.  Sadly, this doesn’t mean they will give up, only that the carnage is not yet concluded.
