Announcing: WWW CRYPTOGRAPHY ARTICLE DATABASE Counterpane Systems http://www.counterpane.com/biblio/ Counterpane Systems has created an extensive bibliography of links to cryptography papers available on the World Wide Web. We hope to build a comprehensive database of published papers available on the net, organized both by author and by year. Users can view the bibliography by author (every author is indexed, not just the first author) or by publication year. There will also be a single page containing all the citations, to facilitate searching the full bibliography (by keyword, for example) with your browser's search function. Counterpane wants this database to be a research tool for the community, and for it to be continuously updated. We will frequently monitor the WWW for new articles for our database. Researchers can also submit articles for inclusion in the database using an on-line form; see the webpage for details. Please help. If you have papers on the Web, please submit them into our database. If you know of any archives of papers that I missed, please let me know. If there are any features youd like to see, please suggest them. Future enhancements include grouping of papers by subject, the inclusion of searchable paper summaries, and the ability to comment on research papers. We hope to also broaden the scope of the database to computer security in general. Please take a moment to try out the Counterpane Cryptography Article Database, and let us know what you think.

The best way to obtain tons of free stuff is called the "smash and grab" technique. It needs to be modified, however. First, not many people know that the police will actually help you load this free stuff into your rented moving truck if you only call and ask. Make sure you tell them exactly where you will be and exactly what time you'll be there, or they won't be able to help! The police are really busy people, though, so you need to make their job as easy as possible. A few minutes before they get there, break the front window of the store and begin loading stuff yourself. This works! Really! I swear! Oh, you should upgrade to 32-bit AOL as soon as possible. Reports indicate that it increases AOLers' I.Q. points to an acceptable level.

conspiracy of bombed and bombers --add Monica's cigar.
by attila 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

now, we all know that government is a business which needs the support of the people. is a terrorist organization any different? both need the hearts and heartbeats of their "subjects". given Bubba's need for a little war to satisfy his carnal love of sex and control, he calls bin Laden and tells him: "Lay one on me, Buddy! They're closing in on me because of this wench Monica". so, bin Laden bombs a couple embassies and digs a few new bomb shelters in the forbidden hills of Afghanistan... good business relationship. bin Laden gets the U.S. people psyched up and willing to give up more of their rights and freedoms to Bubba; and bin Laden gets loved by even more of the Arab populations who are just goat droppings to their despotic governments but who send their gold and young martyrs-to-be to him. "The plan worked like a charm, Buddy!" "No camel dung, Bubba! let me know when you want to remodel some more embassies!" "OK, Buddy, next time I'll send you a Monica scented cigar!" What's Monica got to do with the conspiracy? thought you'd never ask: about an hour ago Matt Drudge laid this one on the net (this one will cost six embassies, not just two): DRUDGE REPORT By Matt Drudge Sat Aug 22 1998 14:22:02 ET MEDIA STRUGGLES WITH SHOCKING NEW DETAILS OF WHITE HOUSE AFFAIR **Warning: Contains Graphic Description In a bizarre daytime sex session, that occurred just off the Oval Office in the White House, President Clinton watched as intern Monica Lewinsky reportedly masturbated with his cigar. It has been learned that several major news organizations have confirmed the shocking episode and are now struggling to find ways to report the full Monica Lewinsky/Bill Clinton grossout. Media Bigfeet are trying to reconstruct one sex session that reportedly took place as Yasser Arafat waited in the Rose Garden for his scheduled meeting with the president! According to multiple sources close to the case, President Clinton allegedly masturbated as Lewinsky performed the sex show with his cigar in a small room off the Oval Office. It is not clear if Clinton or Lewinsky kept the cigar, or if Lewinsky testified on the specifics of the encounter before a federal grand jury this week. Lewinsky's testimony has been described as graphic, and included unusual practices. The DRUDGE REPORT has now been briefed on these shocking details that have stunned all those who have heard them and investigated them -- details that now threaten to completely disgust and stun the American electorate. The White House refuses to comment on any DRUDGE REPORT __________________________________________________________________________ go not unto usenet for advice, for the inhabitants thereof will say: yes, and no, and maybe, and I don't know, and fuck-off. _________________________________________________________________ attila__ To be a ruler of men, you need at least 12 inches....

GodLess - SPACE ALIENS HIDE MY DRUGS!!!
by Linda Reed--PCC West Campus CSC 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

GodLess Capitalists - SPACE ALIENS HIDE M DRUGS!!! ___________________________________________________ "Centralism is dead," says Hayek; however, according to Friedman, it is not so much centralism that is dead, but rather the futility, and subsequent genre, of centralism. Dialectic construction states that government is capable of truth, given that culture is distinct from sexuality. Gonzalo implies that we have to choose between the textual paradigm of discourse and dialectic cultural theory. It could be said that the primary theme of Fielding's essay on Saussurean semiotics is the failure, and hence the rubicon, of patriarchialist truth. "Class is part of the collapse of reality," says Lyotard. In a sense, the example of dialectic construction prevalent in JFK is also evident in Heaven and Earth, although in a more mythopoetical sense. Habermas promotes the use of the textual paradigm of discourse to attack colonialist perceptions of language. In the works of Vinge, a predominant concept is the concept of neocapitalist consciousness. But Lacan uses the term 'Saussurean semiotics' to denote the role of the observer as participant. The subject is interpolated into a structuralist paradigm of expression that includes truth as a totality. If one examines the textual paradigm of discourse, one is faced with a choice: either accept dialectic construction or conclude that expression must come from the masses, but only if the premise of semiotic theory is valid; otherwise, truth is part of the praxis of sexuality. Hughes holds that we have to choose between Saussurean semiotics and dialectic construction. Milhon's critique of the textual paradigm of discourse suggests that the task of the reader is social comment. --Herr Doktor Prof. T.C. May, Ing. See, I told you Tim May knew about that sort of crap. Now, Greg Broiles told me that he knew T.C. May, and I'm no Tim May, and I don't know all those fancy, intellectual words, but I've never found anything that couldn't be adequately described using the eight words you can't say on the InterNet, so I'm going to tell you all about why the GodLess Commies kicked the MindsOfTheMassesAsses so bad that that RockyFeller figured that if he could discover the secret of the BullShitVic Schtick, he could finally realize his dream of having more Dogamned money than the Pope. Marx and Stalin and Lenin and Chairperson Mao knew all about that 1984 stuff about controlling the people by controlling the language and symbolism. They also understood, like I explained before, that you don't want your NewOldLady looking at a picture of her old boyfriend while you're sticking your dick in her, so all of his crap, like his old love- letters and the shirts he left behind, has got to go. Even more, the GodLess Commies knew that it wasn't enough to just throw the OldBoyfriend's shit out, you had to 'deconstruct' your NewOldLady's memory of him, even if you had to wipe her fucking mind out with electroshock and make her listen to tape-loops. That RockyFeller kind of knew that, since he was doing the couch- circuit with all of the Movers&Shakers around the globe, no matter what their schtick was, but wasn't smart enough to figure out all of that stuff on his own, and besides, he was pretty busy counting his money, and that's why he paid the I.S.P.'s GodLess Commies to figure out the best way to put the BullShitVic Schtick up the butts of the masses via the medium of the media of Radiating Radio Waves. The Radio Project's GodLess Commies didn't have much money to count, so it didn't take them long to figure out the obvious, which is that you don't fuck with a winning game. So they figured that 'abolution of culture' could be accomplished by making intellectual content of the medium as close to zero as possible, and that they could 'determine the new cultural forms' of the listeners by Pavlovian repetition which would eventually lead to the listeners drooling on command. Of course, as always, the increasing 'alienation of the population' remained important, since people with a strong sense of belonging in a family, community, social structure, etc., still had a picture of their BoyFriend by their beside, figuratively speaking. The techniques to make people increasingly 'radio-minded' was to reach it's epitome in later years, with the invention of the TV-tray, which enabled families to abandon any pretense, whatsoever, of their family ties being stronger than their imaginary bond to Lucille Ball and Ricky Ricardo. [WAS: Fuck mom! I LOVE LUC!] It was no coincidence that one of Franklin Delanor Roosevelt's main avenues of application of Madison Avenue Plain Folk Imagery was his FireSideChats on the medium which had become a RichCommieFeller tool for seizing the hearts and minds of the masses. After all, FDR owed much of his power and success to Elanor knowing whose ear to blow into in the Eclectic Communist Community of the day. The main difference between the Bolshoi Political Ballet in Russia, and the Communist TakeOver Of America, was that there was no need to remove the heads of the politicians in power and the capitalist Money Mongers, because the politicians and the MoneyMongers *were* the head of the Commie/Fascist TakeOver Of America. * To: cypherpunks(a)einstein.ssz.com (Cypherpunks Distributed Remailer) * Subject: A Thousand Points Of Fight (fwd) * From: Jim Choate <ravage(a)ssz.com> Forwarded message: > From: Linda Reed--PCC West Campus CSC <lreed(a)west.cscwc.pima.edu> > Subject: A Thousand Points Of Fight > federal government. Communism now represents a threat to no one in > the United States, while federal tyranny represents a threat to > EVERONE. An all powerful federal government IS communism. Communism is the political theory that property ownership and management must be centralized under a single authority. While our current state is moving more toward a fascist approach, private ownership & central mananagement, with the increasingly extensive federal management of private business & behaviour. See, I told you so... An Exercise For The Reader #487: Call up an international arms dealer and tell HimOrHer that you need some guns and tanks, and stuff, to start a war or a revolution, and that you don't have any money, but you'll pay HimOrHer after you win. Right... The Movers&Shakers (TM) don't fall for the old GoodLeader/BadLeader crap that is pushed to the public. They have a foot in the door of all of the major players backrooms and merely switch their 'allegiance' to one or another of the players once the final outcome of the game becomes obvious. Neither Lenin nor Hitler borrowed money from 'dad' to start their war/revolution. They got the money from the ever-present SugarDaddies who have adopted children scattered all over the globe. Likewise, SugarDaddy's BigKids in the Military and Intelligence Agencies may fight among themselves over who sits on SugarDaddy's knee, but when those outside the family start butting in, then the CIA and the Mafia, for instance, call a truce to take care of family business. SugarDaddy loves his GoodKids and BadKids equally... Neither do the BigKids in SugarDaddy's CorporateEmpires let petty little details like wars that their own children are fighting interfere with BusinessAsUsual.

Indeed, Marx's final stage of classless society, "from each according to their ability to each according to their needs", implies a level of government management that was all but impossible during his lifetime. The technology required for this level of management now exists, and is being implimented. "Classless society" has been achieved, not by the dissolution of classes, but by the development of technology to a level that can assign each individual into his own class. Technology now allows the optimum utilization of each individual by the state. Loners can voice their objections at the US Capitol... Fast Freddy 'Son of Speed' Burroughs illustrates that paying the extra few bucks for a priority connection to the ClueServer pays off, in the long run. He recognizes that somewhere, in an underground bunker, a Reptilian Nazi is humoring his ScaleOfTen buddies by using the latest in secret lavoratory developed technology to create a cross-clone being that has the MindOfMarx, the BallsOfHitler, and the LipsOfGeorgeBush, which are intoning, "We *have* the technology!" All this shit was in 'The Xenix Chainsaw Massacre' in 1989, but hardly anybody knew what the fuck was being talked about. (I could insert quotes that illustrate this, except I don't have any copies of it, since ThievingFuckingMountieCriminalPricks stole my computers, which is why I am in the middle of fucking them so bad that they will never be the same, afterwards. I was minding my own business, sitting at home telling the Truth over the InterNet, when they decided they just had to fuck with me, so fuck them in thier dirty, crimininal little assholes...) Anyway, what TXCSM said, in a nutshell, was that the success of TotalWorldDomination being achieved by the Controllers was merely dependent on development of the right tools, and tweaking them, and that TV and the InterNet were the right tools. WebWorld & The Mythical Circle of Eunuchs was just written as a fun look at a possible FutureTimeLine&SpaceWave, since The Xenix Chainsaw Massacre had already said everything that needed to be said, if one chose to listen. InfoWar was written mostly as a cross-communication tool between Circle of Eunuchs Gorilla Cells, keeping one another updated on each other's progress. Space Aliens Hide My Drugs is just a rambling, nonsensical diatribe that results when you finally snap, and decide that any Reptilian Nazi that fucks with you is going to be repaid in Spades, perhaps even Aces&Eights, since I am playing with a deck that is a little *too* full, if you know what I mean. Regardless, to get back to answering the question that Declan, GodLessSchill of the TrilateralCPU, asked, about why I send this crap to the CypherPunks...it is because those who make this list their home instinctively know what I have been preaching since 1989--and no doubt some of them have been preaching it since long before that--the InterNet is going to be the Final Frontier of the Battle for Freedom and Privacy between the Controllers and the Citizenry. The CypherPunks understand: "THE (TM) *have* the technology." WeTheSheeple have been getting their asses kicked on the Frontiers of Rights & Freedoms, without even seeming to realize, for the most part, that they are in a fight. Fresh From The ClueServer: Even the Nazis didn't start the CattleCars openly rolling to the Auschwitz Spa & Resort until they were in a position of total control. It is *not* OK that the government is taking away our rights and freedoms, as well as our means to defend ourselves against them, because they are *our* government, because they are the GoodGuys, because they have GoodIntentions, because they are only FuckingUsALittleBit(ForNow), because we are *comfortable* and ThingsAren'tReallyAllThatBad(et)... Think about what *you* have done, personally, to guarantee the continuation of your rights and freedoms. Think about whether you deserve any rights or freedoms. (es, *deserve*...they ain't, contrary to popular opinion, free for the taking...) Think about why the government continues a WarOnDrugs which has been completely ineffective in stopping drug use, in the least, and has only resulted in the imprisonment of more of our citizens than the most evil of dictators that the RoyalWe point our fingers at, as well as high crime rates, and the wholesale slaughter of our youth. Could it be because the government knows exactly what they are doing, and *desire* these results? Good Guess!!! The same goes for the majority of the ills and evils that are part and parcel of the road that our political leaders have led us willingly down. They are no more a mistake than the technology of Radio and TeleVision being directed towards mindless drivel, mass hypnosis and social control programming. While WeTheSheeple sell our souls, our independence, our rights and freedoms, for the comfort and security of being spoon-fed our reality, while being 'protected' from the GreatEvils that the Controllers have promoted or invented in both our MeatSpace and our MindSpace, They (TM) have been busy little beavers, butchering minds and lives in a quest to gain an extra inch, here or there, in the battle for the minds of all of humanity. I want you to all rise from your chairs, open your windows, and scream, as loud as you can, "I've got a DICK, and I'm not afraid to use it!" Well, OK, maybe that's not such a good idea, but you know what I'm talking about, eh? Anthrax - Smoke 'em if you got it...

Jim Bell Rage
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Received from anonymous July 26, 1998: The Columbian (Oregon), No date. Written by John Branton, Columbian staff writer Eleven months in prison - and counting - haven't muzzled James Dalton Bell's rage about what he calls government "black operations" against him. "This story has more government misbehavior than Watergate", Bell wrote in a recent letter to The Columbian. He added in a phone call"I'm in a little bit of danger. These people don't want me talking to you." Bell is the 39-year-old McLoughlin Heights man who wrote an Internet essay, "Assassination Politics", that proposed the bounty-driven murder of "government slimeballs". The former electronics engineer hadn't spoken to The Columbian for about a year, until recently. He was released from federal prison in April. Bell served 11 months after pleading guilty to using false Social Security numbers and obstructing the Internal Revenue Service by trying to intimidate agents and stink bombing their Vancouver office. Bell returned to his parents' home this spring but was free only about two months. Currently, Bell is back in a federal prison in Seattle, awaiting a July 31 hearing on charges that he violated his probation conditions. He's alleged to have refused a court-ordered mental-health evaluation and search of his parents' home. Who is this man, many people have asked, who lives in our midst when he isn't in prison - and if the IRS is to be believed, dabbled with things such as nerve gas, botulism toxin and sodium cyanide? IRS agents say Bell published a "hit list" of agents' home addresses on the Internet for his anti-government "patriot" friends, and discussed contaminating water supplies with a buddy. Is IRS Inspector Jeff Gordon correct in comparing Bell to Timothy McVeigh and Theodore Kaczynski and saying the IRS interrupted him in plans to commit murder? No, says Bell. "They knew I wasn't planning to kill federal agents", Bell said this month. "They were scared because I had written something that shows a way to eliminate government. They were afraid I could convince the public that I could replace existing government for no more than a 10th or 20th of its current cost." His wariness of the federal government is understandable - they put him in prison. But his words reveal a view of governmental duplicity like the fictional world of X- Files agents Mulder and Scully. "Paranoid would be a good word", said Bell's federal probation officer, Matthew Richards. Bell, asked why he doesn't obey his court- ordered probation terms to stay out of prison, made a reference to the political imprisonment of Nelson Mandela, South Africa's president. "I believe that when the federal government decided to spy on me, simply because of my political opposition to their tyranny and terrorism, it dramatically diverged from what the average American citizen would be inclined to tolerate", Bell wrote recently. Beginning in late 1995 or early 1996, Bell said, federal agents read his "Assassination Politics" essay, posted on the Internet. The essay described a computerized system to ward "untraceable digital cash" to anyone who correctly predicted the exact time of a federal agent's murder. In Bell's words, "Imagine for a moment that, as ordinary citizens were watching the evening news, they see an act by a government employee or officeholder that they feel violates their rights, abuses the public's trust or misuses the powers that they feel should be limited. What if they could go to their computers, type in the miscreant's name, and select a dollar amount. If 0.1 percent of the population, or one person in a thousand, was willing to pay $1 to see some government slimeball dead, that would be in effect, a $250,000 bounty on his head." Alarmed, Bell says, federal agents used two homes near his parent's home, one on Corregidor Road and the other on Mississippi Drive, for a clandestine and possibly illegal surveillance operation. Agents supposedly installed thousands of dollars worth of sophisticated equipment, possibly using microwave technology, to spy on Bell. "None of that occurred", said federal probation officer Richards. "Absolutely not true", said the owner of one of the houses. "I wouldn't let the feds in my house." Bell said he suspects the agents bugged his phone illegally - and followed him when he got out of prison briefly in April. "We never bugged his phone", Richards said. "No tailing whatsoever". Once, Bell said, he spotted someone following him and turned the tables on them. Bell followed the car to Rixen's Enterprises, 2700 N. Hayden Island Drive, which he suspects is a secret front for a federal "black operation". "No spooks here", said the owner, Jim Rixen, 40, who said he deals in heating systems for boats and recreational vehicles. "I've had this company for 13 years. You can ask anybody on this island. You're more than welcome to come here and go through everything I've got. He might have followed some customer of mine here. I've never heard anything about it." In his upcoming hearing in the U.S. District Court in Tacoma, the government will charge Bell with additional - so far undisclosed - probation violations, Richards said. If Bell has any actual evidence of illegal practices by the government, that would be the place to bring it up. =end of article=

TruthChapter - SPACE ALIENS HIDE MY DRUGS!!!
by Linda Reed--PCC West Campus CSC 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

TruthChapter -- SPACE ALIENS HIDE M DRUGS!!! _____________________________________________ OK, so it's a slow day and you don't have much going on. our sister is out of town for the weekend, your dog is on the rag and your Visa is maxed-out. Thus, sex is not a viable option for killing a little spare time (now a felony). So what the hell... ou're going through the posts to the CypherPunks list and you notice that the asshole who forged posts to the list in your name (claiming that fucking two nine year-olds is just as legal as fucking an 18 year-old) has spammmed yet another chapter of the rambling, semi-coherent saga "The True Story Of The InterNet" to the list. ou've read bits and pieces of the manuscripts (on company time), every now and again (more out of boredom than because of any socially or coupon redeeming content), and it bothers you that the Author has taken concepts, themes and issues that are important to you and put a bizarre, insane/inane twist on them that somehow degrades and defiles them, in spite of the fact that he sometimes supplies a remarkable amount of documented facts and viewpoints from 'respectable sources' in support of his vague claims and wild-eyed theories. ou take great care to avoid being 'caught' reading the manuscripts by others and you wouldn't dream of admitting in public that you view them as anything but mindless trash, but you keep finding yourself thinking about some of the underlying views expressed by the Author of the manuscripts. ou've begun to realize that what troubles you about the 'True Story Of The InterNet' manuscripts is reflective of what bothers you about the InterNet, in general, as a Medium/Message--the ongoing battle between order and chaos that reins supreme within a Virtual Reality where Jane and Joe Average can avail themselves of the same technology as Established Authority (TM) in the battle for your attention. Ms. Information Highway is a Eunuch who embodies the divergent and seemingly contradictory yin/yang qualities that would result from a cross-cloning of Walter Cronkite and the BlondeBimbo that everyone tells the jokes about. It's like the 'science' of UFOlogy...the 'experts' in the field often provide a well-documented trail of facts and figures from recognized sources and authorities. The problem, of course, is that the facts and figures are used to 'prove' a wide range of Plausible Theories (TM) ranging from highly-evolved beings with a superior intelligence to humans, to Reptilian Nazis living deep within the bowels of Mother Earth who are cultivating SurfaceDwellers such as ourselves to provide a FoodFarm for Alien GreyHound Tourists passing through on their way to another galaxy. The Problem (TM) posed by the InterNet is Taoist in Nature. The Total Access To All Information which is inherent in the Physical Manifestation Of Virtual Reality which we know as the InterNet opens a Dangerous Door Of Perception leading to an environment within which we have the possibility of being...free! The Freedom represented by Unrestricted Access To Information comes from having the ability to exercise one of the most basic of all human qualities, which is to 'seek' knowledge in our quest for an expanding evolutionary wisdom. The Freedom is to be able to Search for Knowledge according to one's own personal predilictions and desires, and to Choose from All Available Information/Knowledge what one will use as tools in building one's Perceived Reality. In a world where we have become accustomed to being spoon-fed the information, perceptions and viewpoints which comprise our Perceived Reality (by Officially Recognized Authority), we suddenly find ourselves faced with the possibility of using the technological tools of the InterNet to direct our Attention/Perception along vectors of our own choosing, rather than being subjected to forced herding into the fenced pastures and feeding pens designed by the Controllers to keep us in an environment which is the most suitable and convenient for their purposes. The Freedom is freedom from a Reality created and governed by Official Government Pamphlets handed to us in every area of our life. The Freedom is the freedom to peruse the colored charts and diagrams provided by the Pentagon to lead us through a maze where Gulf War Syndrome is an imaginary being that is always just around the corner, and then to direct our attention to the private WebSite of a Gulf War Vetran who provides the details of his personal experience in regard to the war and its effect on his or her life and health. The Freedom is the freedom to read the wildly rambling, nonsensical diatribes contained in the 'True Story Of The InterNet' manuscripts and say, "Bullshit! I'm going to check these wild-eyed claims out for myself." The Freedom is freedom to chaff and winnow the original Seed Of Knowledge in a manner that suits your desires, and to seek out InterNet venues and personas which make your Quest for Knowledge more complete or efficient. The Freedom is the freedom to change the direction or the parameters of your Quest for a specific reason, or on a momentary whim, solely to view your Perceived Reality from the outside, in order to get a more objective view of the WorldReality you have constructed. It is in this spirit that the 'TruthChapter' is being dedicated. TruthChapter FAQ ---------------- 1. What you are currently reading is *not* the TruthChapter. 2. The Author has not written, and has no intention of writing, the TruthChapter. 3. The Author is full of shit! Regardless of the ultimate level of personal and professional ethics that the Author brings to the manuscripts that pass through his or her space-time continuum of MuseDom, his or her attitudes, facts, figures, beliefs, values, etc., are completely irrelevant to your path in life, except to the extent that you, personally, evaluate and apply the concepts and ideas expressed for your consideration. 4. Writing the TruthChapter is *your* job! This is true whether you choose to participate in the activity which is described below in 'An Exercise For The Reader', or whether you choose to curl up in bed with Playboy, Time, The Wall Street Journal, Beer and Bloating In Lost Wages, or A Physically Manifested Expression Of Mind To Be Named Later. ============================= TruthChapter FAQ Intermission Make some popcorn, grab a beer, and think about the following... At some point in 'InfoWar - Part III of the True Story Of The InterNet', there was a statement, quote, or some reference documented reference to the Fact (TM) that, during a period when violent crime statistics showed a significant 'decrease' in violent crimes, that public perception viewed violent crime as being very much on the 'increase' (and a 'growing' problem). The reader of the manuscript has no way of personally knowing whether the Author is passing along real, existing facts and/or information in this regard, whether he or she is lying in order to promote a private agenda, or whether the Author dreamed or imagined the 'information' during drunken drug-withdrawal seizures. The same concept holds true even if you can verify through personal research that the fact/information came from an established, respectable, documented source. (i.e. - "Oswald acted alone." / "We, the jury, find OJ Simpson 'not guilty'." / "We, the 'civil jury', find OJ Simpson 'guilty'." / "We, the Court Of Public Opinion, made up our minds long before the trial began." / "The Mormon Tabernacle Choir acted alone..." ) My point? The Author makes no bones about being a drunken, insane, drug-addicted, infantile pervert. The fact that past and present Presidents, Dictators, Titans of Industry, Media Moguls, Religious Leaders, Politicians, etc., etc., ad infinitum, choose to claim that they smoked pot but didn't inhale, that they drank liquor but never swallowed, that they had sex but didn't cum... Well, the bottom line is, "ou pays your money, you takes your chance." Although the reality of the time-space continuum requires that we develop structures and processes by which we can navigate life's diverse paths, delegating many of our daily thoughts, feelings and activities to pre-programmed reactions and responses that are based on our previous experience and analysis of life, we can never truly escape the reality that 'Life is a crapshoot' and that failure to exercise our capacity for conscious awareness results in our becoming submerged in a robotic humanity/persona which leaves us vulnerable to automatically travelling along the path of least resistance. Our being Real (TM) is not a question of 'truthfully' answering our employer's question in regard to our opinion on the Vietnam war, whether our employer is the Pentagon or the Peace Coalition. Gurdjieff once said that in one's inner life, one is free to say, 'The King is shit!', but in one's outer life, it is often wise to say, 'All hail the King!'. Our being Real (TM) is mostly a question of being aware of the difference between our inner and our outer lives. My definition of a 'truthful' person is one who does not lie to others more than he or she lies to oneself, except as necessary. As far as when it is 'necessary' to lie, and what it is 'necessary' to lie about...that is a matter of personal conscience for every individual. It is dependent on one's personal wisdom and understanding, as well as on their beliefs and values in life. (i.e. - It is up to each individual to decide whether they are comfortable with lying when the Gestapo ask if they are hiding Jews in the attic.) In a world where there is increasing pressure to conform completely to a constantly narrowing societal paridigm, it is important to resist sinking into a primordal swamp of group consciousness that submerges our individual creative spirit, or spark of life. I regard it as an absolute anathema to the human spirit that opinions of OJ's guilt or innocence is split so radically along racial lines, far beyond what differences in social exposure and experience alone would dictate among people of thought and reason. Everyone who was present when Nicole Simpson and Ronald Goldman were murdered, raise your hand... Although it is encumbent upon us, in our daily lives, to judge ourself and our life based on the best possible information, to the best of our ability, we too often tend to do so from a perspective of a biased, angry mob outside of the courtroom, than from a perspective of a juror sworn to high standards of objectivity in viewing our own life and our personal knowledge/belief systems. The tragedy of the OJ trial was that the blatant racism, corruption and lack of professional ethics of those who are employed to be objective, unbiased investigators made it impossible for an objective juror to place a man's fate in the hands that gathered the evidence. The tragedy of life's trials is that there is so much intrigue and subterfuge in our environment, as a result of private and group agendas driven by human weaknesses and character defects, that it is now a monumental task to analyze and evaluate the information we receive, in order to feel confident in our ability to structure our beliefs and pre-programmed reactions and feelings in a manner that will allow us to feel our spiritual integrity has remained intact during the process. The point I am leading up to is that it is difficult, yet exceedingly important, to overcome our human foibles and our tendency to become robotic Sheeple in the present societal environment which puts great pressure upon us to abandon freedom of thought and spirit, in the interest of the comfort of conformity. We live in a society where we are required by law and custom to nod our belief and approval when our elected political leader says, "Read my lips...no new taxes!", even though there is not a person on the face of the earth who doesn't understand it is a meaningless lie. It doesn't matter whether it is the political arena, the religious arena, the media, the press, the justice system, or whatever--The Lies Flow Like Water! We have become so numbed by the assault on the Truth that it is an easy task merely to fall into a deep slumber where we cease resisting the constant attacks on our inherent sensibility and our desire for increased knowledge and wisdom. Gurdjieff posited that it is 'impossible' for a human to 'consciously do evil'. Although the truth of this is most easily seen in the group descent into unthinking madness that was epitomized by the rise and fall of the Third Reich, I believe that it is equally true in the smaller areas of daily life, where we learn to robotically 'fool' ourselves, often in the interests of survival, into believing that it is Right, instead of merely Expedient, to believe that requiring certain ethnic groups to sit at the back of the bus is 'the way it is', instead of consciously maintaining awareness that it is Wrong, if that is our true personal feeling and belief. It is my belief that Right & Wrong (TM) have little or no meaning without a Conscious Objective Awareness that can only result from an individual having the freedom to explore all of the information and experience that life has to offer, without unreasonable, intrusive censorship from various elements of their environment. Which brings us back to...the TruthChapter... ============================= TruthChapter FAQ (continued) ---------------------------- 5. The Medium Is The Message... The information that comes into our range of perceptive attention is shaped, shaded and molded in a manner dependent upon the medium of communication by which it is transmitted. This is true whether the Information is transmitted by genetics, analog or digital emmissions, is a moving and flowing energy, or is captured in a static, stable form. Fish find their way back to their birthplace by a different method than humans because of the difference in the mediums by which they receive the necessary information. 6. Salmon don't have to show a passport to an armed fish representing the Stream Government. Salmon don't have to have approval of the Church of Salmon in order to spawn. Salmon don't get a ticket for swimming on the wrong side of the stream, or for swimming too fast. Big fish eat little fish...in one gulp. They don't nibble them to death with Fish Taxes. They don't drown them at the stake for believing the earth is round. Fish are not as 'smart' or 'creative' as humans--they do not mentally build Empires out of Imaginary Sand Castles In The Sky and then eat each other in an argument over what color to paint the walls. 7. If Salmon could write, they would probably write a FAQ with Facts, instead of embellishing the information with vague, semi-rational references that seem to be putting a confusing spin on their World Of Perceived Reality for no other reason than fear of falling off if it ceases turning. <EOFAQ> OK, so instead of using the TruthChapter FAQ to provide you with accurate, unbiased information with which to construct your own WorldView (TM), I ended up getting a little carried away, using my Substance Abuse Enhanced Creativity (TM) to try to suck the reader into a WorldView constructed by myself for the sole purpose of making it the Reader's turn to buy the next round of drinks. Although you might regard this as merely another 'proof' of my freely admitted diabolicallity (don't bother looking it up in the dictionary), it is my contention that you are only fooling yourself if you are of the belief that you can take the facts/opinions of *anyone* at face value, without asking questions such as: "Had Saint Peter already signed a BookDeal with a Bible publisher before authoring the Epistles which he asks us to take as fact, based on Faith?" "Did Moses have inside information that there were vast reserves of oil in the Promised Land?" "Did Job belong to an S&M cult?" "Was St. John the Divine 'on something' when he had his 'Revelation' <snicker-snicker>?" "When Jesus performed his 'miracles', did he work with scantily clad, sexy assistants, in order to divert the attention of the crowd?" The point I am trying to make is that, even in the arena of religious belief, there is a difference between Faith and a Lobotomy. Likewise in the arenas of Politics, Family, Business, Sports and Relationships. For example: "WaterGate FAQ" by Richard Nixon "Curfew Time FAQ" by our Mom & Dad "MicroSoft FAQ" by Saint William Gates "Sports FAQ" by Jimmy the Greek & Marge Shott "Relationship FAQ" by A Pregnant Woman Who Claimed To Be On The Pill And Now Demands ou Marry Her "TruthChapter FAQ" by A Cheap Drunk To Be Named Later In the interests of using the True Story Of The InterNet manuscripts as a vehicle to increase the Reader's ability to analyze and evaluate the proffered 'information' in a manner that utilizes the evolving technological tools of the medium by which the manuscripts are being disseminated, the Author is making freely available the information with which he was planning to generate/construct a chapter with the title, 'son of The Mother Of All Chapters'. By providing the Reader with the information gleaned from the InterNet for constructing the 'son of The Mother Of All Chapters', as well as revealing HisOrHer's secret designs and hidden agendas culminating in the final, manifested form of the chapter, the Author is offering you, the highly esteemed Reader of the 'True Story Of The InterNet', an opportunity to InterActively Participate in the process of the construction of your personal News & Entertainment Paridigm. The reality of the time-space continuum dictates that we must apply our time and resources in gathering and analyzing the information by which we construct our WorldView in a manner that best utilizes the tools at our disposal to shape, color and mold available information, including taking advantage of the MiniPre-Fab Realities that are offered to us by our fellow RealityBuilders. Although Manufacturing Reality can be done with greater quality control and efficiency through the sharing of our individual Reality Products, basic economics dictates that there are often HiddenCosts associated with believing RealityAdvertising claims that something is 'free', in the overall scheme of things. There is little difference between being a HeatedSpoonFed Heroin Addict and in being a SpoonFed News/Information/ Entertainment Junkie. Once you are hooked, the price goes up, and you end up on Information Welfare and still having to steal your own integrity in order to pay an increasing price for a diluted/cut product, in order to feed your habit/need with an inferior product. The TruthChapter is being presented as an opportunity to explore the possibility of weaning yourself to a realistically supportable level of addiction to incoming information in order to strike a balance between suffering the pangs and arrows of outrageous fortune, in the course of your evolution, and becoming Irrevocably Comfortably Numb through overuse of the current OpiateOfTheMasses. Despite the fact that the inspiration for the process of completing 'son of The Mother Of All Chapters' was largely the result of the Author having his computers and notes stolen by Officially Recognized Authorities (TM), as well as HimOrHer descending into a depressing, primordial pit of dysfuntional drug withdrawal, this does not, in reality, automatically preclude the possibility that the LoftyGoals professed by the Author in regard to the purpose of the TruthChapter *could* be true... An Exercise For The Reader: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. Read 'Son.doc' in order to familiarize yourself with the all-too-predictable paranoid conspiracy theory slant that the Author had planned to put upon the information gathered for the assembly of the 'son of The Mother of All Chapters'. The Son.doc attachment is an incomplete preliminary summary/first-draft of the 'son of The Mother Of All Chapters', as envisioned by the Author. 2. Read 'ThePlot.txt' in order to get the general gist of the Spin that the Author had planned to put on the analysis and evaluation of the information that had been gathered. 3. Read 'FDR.doc' and 'FDR2.doc' to familiarize yourself with the building blocks with which the Author had planned to construct 'son of The Mother Of All Chapters', as well as HisOrHer notes regarding HisOrHer personal knowledge and experience that could be added to support HisOrHer's personal WorldView. 4. Write the fucking chapter yourself! 5. Disseminate the chapter to whomever you please, in any manner you please. (e.g. - snailmail to your mom, email to the CypherPunks Distributed Mailing List, or as an email reply to those who bless you with 'Make $$$ Fast!" UCE/Spams.) "The Answer To Noise, Is More Noise!" ~ CypherPunks Chief SpokesPerson #238 Fuck the Author! Fuck Time Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, America's Most Wanted, Paul Harvey and A 'No Loitering' Sign To Be Named Later! Write your own goddamn chapter and tell it the way that *you* see it. Fuck TruthMonger! *BE* the TruthMonger. Put your own accurate or inaccurate spin or twist on the 'son of The Mother Of All Chapters' information base. Add to it with items gleaned from your own research, or from your own personal accumulated knowledge and experience. Throw all of the provided information out and completely write the chapter from scratch, with the same theme or a different theme. Write the chapter, type the chapter, or just think about how you would approach writing the chapter in order to make manifest the expression of the knowledge and wisdom that you have to share with your fellow Prisoners Of A Group Reality as to how to best break the Chains Of Free Thought wrapped around our brains by the Reality Police. Don't use your physical tools merely to receive and to retransmit Noise. Create Noise! If anyone complains or criticizes your Noise, fuck 'em! ou're the TruthMonger! ou're the Author of 'son of The Mother Of All Chapters'. Don't lose any sleep over the whining of ignorant pissants who are unable or unwilling to accept the fact that your world is flat, and that's the way GoDoG intended it to be. Intelligent people, like oursleves, know the world is flat. That's the Truth (TM).

Son of Mother Of All Chapters -- SPACE ALIENS HIDE M DRUGS!!! _________________________________________________________ July, 1948: The moment has come when the costumes, the grease paint, the falsely colored scenery, the technicolored spotlights and all the other artifices of makeYDup should be put aside and, in the interest of truth, the solid facts about the play and the players revealed to the people. ~ The Roosevelt Myth, Preface to the Popsvox PublishingR edition Dec. 7, 1941 The Lake of Life has started to turn over. The bottom is rising to the top, the top is descending to the bottom, and everything is becoming the opposite of what it seems to be. ~ Vice-Admiral B. D'Shauneaux, USN ~~~ ~~~ Version 1.7, Rev B: Saturday morning, March 4, 1933...the conquering Democrats poured into the city... Only a week before an assassin's bullet had barely missed Roosevelt. It struck Anton Cermak, the Bohemian mayor and boss of Chicago, who with Al Smith, had opposed Roosevelt's nomination...and died a few days later. Version 2.7, Rev. 3: On February 1, 1933, in Miami, Florida Giuseppe Zangara fired five shots a President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt, who was making an impromptu speech while sitting in an open car that had stopped momentarily. Although none of the shots hit President Roosevelt, Zangara mortally wounded Anton Cermak, the Mayor of Chicago, and hit four other people, including a Secret Service agent. Version 3.9, Rev. 2-B: On February 15, 1933, Zangara attended a speech given by Roosevelt at Bayfront Park in Miami, Florida. When Roosevelt had finished his talk and was preparing to leave, Zangara pulled out a pistol and opened fire. Zangara wounded five people who had been near the president-elect, two of them seriously. Most critically injured was Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak, who was struck by the bullet in the chest which then lodged in his spine. Version 4.9, Rev. 8C: The parade car moved slowly down the street as President-elect Roosevelt and Mayor Cermak smiled and waved. The car stopped and President-elect Roosevelt gave a speech while sitting on the back of the car. A man named Guiseppe Zangara pushed through the crowd. He fired five shots at the President-elect. The bullets hit four people and Mayor Cermak. Version 15.6, Rev. 7: On March 6, Mayor Cermak died from complications stemming from the shooting. The same day Zangara was indicted by a grand jury and charged with first degree murder in the death of Cermak. His trial began on March 9 and ended on March 11 with a guilty verdict and a death sentence. The prisoner was transported to the Florida State Prison at Raiford, where he was executed on March 20, 1933. Version 18.9, Rev. 5D: Mayor Anton J. Cermak died three weeks later, on March 8, 1933. His body was taken back to Chicago and buried in the Bohemian National Cemetery. Guiseppe Zangara was executed in the electric chair on March 21, 1933. That was only 13 days after Mayor Cermak died. Version 32.9, Rev. 12: Consider the case of Guiseppe Zangara, who was executed in 1933 for the attempted assassination of President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt in which Chicago Mayor Anton J. Cermak was fatally shot. Zangara pleaded guilty in state court on March 10, was sentenced to death, and was executed on March 20 -- an interval of 10 days! Version 82, Rev. 5Q: After Roosevelt had delivered a speech in Florida on February 14, 1938, Guiseppe Zangara, an unemployed bricklayer, fired six shots from a handgun at Roosevelt from twelve yards away. The president-elect, who was sitting in an open car, was uninjured but five other people were shot, including Chicago mayor Anton Cernak, who was killed. Version 95, Rev. 8: On February 15, 1933, Guiseppe Zangara rose early...

The Plot
by Linda Reed--PCC West Campus CSC 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

The Plot of son of ?ThePlatypus ------------------------------- Gathered information reveals: 1. US Presidents and important political figures count on the Secret Service for protection. Secret Service agents are in the employee of the MoneyMongers who rule the US Treasury Department. Thus, if the MoneyMongers don't approve of a powerful individual's political policy and actions... 2. Presidents and other political figures seem to die at particular junctures of time wherein they have already served their purpose to the Controllers. (Note: 'die' either physically or politically. i.e. - FDR croaking shortly after getting Truman elected as the hand-picked replacement of shadowy figures. 3. Ronald Reagan and FDR were both 'front men' for their wives, and/or those in their wives shadowy background. FDR, through the efforts of Elanor and her cohorts, was paid A QUARTER OF A MILLION DOLLARS in order to enter the New ork governor's race. 4. Accounts of the life and times of FDR inevitably contain a generous sprinkling of references to Luck! (e.g. - Fortuitous Circumstances as opposed to PART OF AN EVIL PLOT B THE SECRET CONTROLLERS WHO RULE THE WORLD FROM BEHIND THE SCENES!!!) 5. Hitler and his Evil Empire was no more a 'fluke of nature' than Lenin and his Evil Empire. The 'infiltration' of the American political scene by a wide variety of people with socialist or communist beliefs and agendas was not some mysterious, unplanned 'accident'. The rise of Eugenics, with the resulting implications of a Master Race embodied in genetic control, was a worldwide phenomena promoted by intellectuals and leaders in all nations, not just in the nation which gave Eugenics a 'bad name' by instituting the end result of a Planned Society a little too fast to prevent disturbing the average persons natural pace of increasing moral compromise. 6. Neither Oswald nor Hitler 'acted alone.' Try starting a World War without the backing and support of the MoneyMongers and the PowerBrokers. Lots of luck... 7. After Pavlov discovered biological mechanisms for the control of when dogs drool, his research did not come to a halt. Political and Military Czars who had a hand in developing and researching brainwashing techniques epitomized by 'The Manchurian Candidate' did *not* decide it would be wrong to use the techniques, just to increase their money and power. oung boys in the throes of publerty do *not* refrain from imagining what their large-breasted teacher would look like, naked, after reading 'The Invisible Man'. 8. Viewing the life and times of FDR (and probably any other political/religious leader) is *scary* if one lets their mind contemplate the 'possibility' of deep, dark conspiracy theories being True!! Why? Because one can construct a Dark Theory that makes as much (if not *more*) sense than the Standard Authorized View Of History And Reality promoted in educational materials, government pamphlets and corporate advertising. (i.e. - The Allies burned a few Jews, but they didn't inhale...) 9. Nobody acts alone...Anonymous acts secretly.

Hi everybody! Have a look at Scientific American August 1998 for an article by L. Adleman (of RSA fame) about how he solved a computationnally gigantic problem in less than a second with a few drops of stinking liquid :-) Unfortunately, the article is not available from www.sciam.com, so you'll have to buy the paper version of the magazine. *FASCINATING* Also, have a look at http://cwis.usc.edu/dept/News_Service/chronicle_html/1995.10.23.html/Superc… Ciao jfa Jean-Francois Avon, Pierrefonds (Montreal), Canada Unregistered Firearms in the hands of honest citizens: Liberty's Teeth Strong Cryptographic tools in the hands of honest citizens: Liberty's Voice He who beats his sword into a ploughshare will get coerced to plow for those who don't...

"SHOW ME THE MONEY!"............Not a problem! I am about to share with you a unique opportunity to start a very successful business or take an existing one to new heights. By taking advantage of the following breakthrough knowledge in marketing trends, you will soon discover the art of . . . "How to Really Make Money on the Information Superhighway!" Some of you may already be marketing a product online. Maybe you are even making a sizeable profit! Whatever the case may be, no matter how successful you are right now, my guess is that your bank account is still not overflowing and MORE MONEY with LESS WORK peaks your interest. FACT 1 : ANYONE WHO HAS THE DRIVE TO SUCCEED CAN ACTUALLY MAKE A SIZABLE PROFIT ON THE INTERNET. FACT 2 : FEW PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO TAKE THE TIME TO ACTUALLY DO IT. FACT 3: THESE PEOPLE ARE CRAZY!! Seriously friends...Why would people want to pass up an extremely valuable money making opportunity? Many people think that Marketing on the Internet takes more time than any human being can spare. "There is so much to learn" some say. "I can't even find the time to check my E-mail, how will I ever learn enough about the internet to make money?" others quote. The fact is that in many cases this us true, there is a wealth of information on the internet about how to "market" this and how to "sell" that. Unless you know what to look for, it can become an endless maze of dead ends and wasted time. Now think about this... WHAT IF? I could provide YOU with an incredible Marketing Package that encompasses all the "How To" information you need to be a success on the Internet. This phenomenal package includes DETAILED Internet SECRETS (we don't hold anything back, its all here folks!!), which explains in detail how to Profit from the Internet Explosion. Whether you have a business of your own or you want to start one. It's filled with over 45 packed pages revealing the secrets about electronic marketing so many other online marketers DON'T want you to know. I thought that might interest YOU. Let me explain. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Right now there are over eighty million people surfing the Internet. By the year 2000, that figure is expected to more than double. With so many people using the Internet, smart "net"repreneur's are taking advantage of what this new (in terms of true commercial application) and exciting medium has to offer. The Internet presents one of the best ways to make money that has ever been introduced. On any given day you have the opportunity to present your message to more than eighty million people! That's right... EIGHTY MILLION people. That is more people than one multi million dollar advertisment reaches at the Super Bowl. This is the reason so many businesses are scrambling to make their presence known on the Internet. Not only does the internet let you reach these people, it lets you pitch these people on your product or services. That means it gives you the abillity to sell..sell..sell!! it also gives you the resurces you need to MAKE EXCELLENT MONEY. And we do mean excellent money!!! CONSIDER THE POSSIBILITIES: You wake up each morning at your leisure and put on a pot of coffee. As you sip on your cup of hot "brew" you saunter over and turn your computer on. Then, as your monitor glows from dim to bright, you find that you have inquiries from all sorts of people requesting what you have to offer. Later, after you have finished reading your inquiries, you stroll out to your mailbox. You find it is filled with letters from people from all across the world! What's even better though, is that the letters are FILLED WITH MONEY; cash, checks, and money orders. Then, after tallying up the totals, you find that you have made anywhere between $200 to $1,000 and it isn't even one o'clock in the afternoon. Think of it: NO boss, NO traffic, and NO annoying Co-workers. Wouldn't it feel great to wake up in the morning knowing you are going to be making excellent money but don't have to leave your house to do it!?! Wouldn't your life be far less complicated? The truth is, you can be one of those who become financially independent via the Internet. AND THE BEST PART IS...IT DOESN'T REQUIRE A LOT OF MONEY!! What it does require is the knowledge of how, what, and where to do it. That is where we can help. Here at Natural Instincts, we provide you with the knowledge of how to begin earning substantial income from your computer via the "information superhighway". We can remember how overwhelming the Internet seemed when we were first introduced to it. We realized the marketing and profit potential the Internet holds, but really had no idea how to pursue it. In our thirst for answers and knowledge, we purchased everything we could find that had information on the How, What, and Where. We spent thousands of dollars, but we now know what works and what doesn't. No where, in all of our searching, could we find a complete packet of information for all of our questions. That is why we decided to write this report. We have compiled every proven method and secret that we have learned along the way into one complete, easy to understand report. This PROVEN REPORT makes believers of skeptics! Sound too good to be true? That's what others have said. That is, until they received their reports and saw for themselves just how easy it is to make money on the net! Check out these satisfied customers... Hi NI, I received your report and free bonuses last Saturday and wanted to congratulate you on a job well done. I read through your report "How To Profit From The Internet" and I'm very impressed. I have bought other books and manuals about Online Marketing, Direct Marketing, E-mail, Mail Order, etc. Yours is the only one that explains the subject in an easy to understand language. I finally found the secrets I've been looking for. Once again, Great Job! Sincerely, John Strand - Satisfied Customer My father has always told me, "remember, Michele, there is no free lunch in life. You get out of life what you put into it." Through trial and error and a somewhat slow frustrating start, I purchased your report and finally figured out how to start a very profitable business from my home. Your report is great, you give the average person the tools and secrets to succeed. I know my dad is very proud of me now. I can't thank you enough =) Michele B from Oregon Good Morning, I hope this finds you well. I received your program yesterday after- noon and read it cover to cover.

Best Regards, Mary W Florida To whom it may concern- I'm usually the first person to write a negative criticism about a product, being a "consumer Advocate" columnist for a well respected newspaper. To tell you the truth, I ordered your product to do an expose on Internet scams. But, as I was reading through your manual, I discovered what truly valuable information your company has put together, and for an affordable price. It is very rare for a "complaint columnist" to give a good review, but for the first time, I need to tell you that your manual you have put together is OUTSTANDING!!! I have wanted for the last few years to start a business on the Net, but have been deathly scared of taking that step to get started. But then I discovered your manual and put the tips and secrets to work. I haven't been able to keep up with the orders, and it's only my second month!!! I can't wait to see where I will be in six months! Thank you, Rick Johnson Alabama This is a wonderful opportunity, we urge you to take advantage of it.

So you are probably thinking to yourself, this is wonderful, but how much? $149.95, $99.95 maybe even $79.95? You may have seen other companies marketing "How To" information on the Internet and charging these prices. People are actually buying these packages at these prices. Why? People want to know how to market a product or service the "Right" way on the Internet. "How to Profit from the Internet" could easily sell for any of the above prices. However, we feel that we would rather help those who may not have the ability to pay such a price in order to be successful. That is why we are offering "How to Profit from the Internet" at the low price of $39.95. That's right, that was not a typo...$39.95. I have sold this package at much higher prices in the recent past and will be forced to raise my prices in the very near future. One of the things you will learn in my course is to constantly test your market. I am currently in the price testing phase of this marketing campaign. On Augast 15th, 1998, I will be raising the price of this package back up to $49.95 and eventually up to $79.95 to test the upscale market. If you act quickly, you have the opportunity to get these materials today for the unbelievable low price of $39.95. Still skeptical??? Lets put that to rest right now. We will make this completely risk free for you. If you are not 100% satisfied with the information you receive, and believe that you cannot use it to start a successful business or increase your current business profits, return it within 30 days and we will refund your money.

Dear Prospective Entrepreneur
by users1＠comports.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Dear Prospective Entrepreneur; I have been an attorney for 26 years, but recently I joined a company which is only 3 years old, and is growing at a fantastic rate; in fact, after only 10 months old, it was featured in SUCCESS MAGAZINE, and it has been the #1 rated network marketing opportunity for the last three years. What makes this company and this opportunity I am offering you so great, is the fact that we (Marketing Executives) have "EXCLUSIVE" marketing rights in the United States to new miracle products that are providing dramatic benefits to people who have two of the worst diseases known to mankind. Americans who learn about and need our products, can only get them through us, and not from other companies, or the corner drug store. After getting into other companies in the last several years, and going from company to company, and product to product (mostly companies that failed, or had falsely advertised products), I finally found this company that is truly "CREDIBLE," has tremendous products, a great compensation plan, and, best of all, my customers are calling me back month after month. Since the products actually sell themselves, I'm NOT constantly on the phone, or forever hustling all my relatives and friends. Products that make people feel better (especially natural products that have no side effects, and do have a 60 day money back guarantee) cause people to call me every month, instead of me calling them. Our "exclusive" and "patented" all natural products have also gone through the double blind clinical studies and have produced unbelievable sales in foreign markets, and have only recently been introduced into the United States, so our timing is also perfect. If you are interested in trying our products and/or looking at this business opportunity, call me toll-free at 888-203-6668 and leave your name, telephone number, and/or your address if you want more information. You also can respond to exclusive(a)apexmail.com. If you are ready to make some changes in your life, free up some time to spend with your family, and make some extra money, call me or e-mail me. WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO LOSE? I made that same call a few months ago, and I promise, you will be happy to hear more about this tre- mendous company, its great products, and about how easy it will be for you to make that extra money. Thanks, Clyde Fontenot This message is brought to you from Clyde Fontenot, Attorney, 504 W. Main St., Ville Platte,LA.70586, 318-363-5535.

"Bernardo B. Terrado" wrote: > A virus uses encryption to hide itself (correct?), > but will the files in a pc be safe from virus when encrypted? why? a virus can be encrypted or it could leave itself open. usaually the first. it all depends on the combination of what virus and encryption software you use. Many times a virus will infect by waiting for you to open a file (run, copy, move) when it sees a file open it will add itself to the end and then move the start of the program to the virus. When the program is executed it jumps to the virus who loads itself into memory and then jumps seamlessly to the beginning of the program, unperceptibly( if done right) If your files are encrypted by a program that stays in memory and lets programs run like normal a virus will run like normal. If you have an uninfected file PGPed when you extract a copy it will become infected like a normal file however the pgp file will not be infected. If the encryption is built into the program and has a checksum you will be notified if it is infected but if it just runs a decryption routine and then starts the program then it could be infected before the decryption routine. in general if you can read/write a file so can a virus. If you are worried about infection, get an uninfected copy and make a detached pgp .sig then run it on your computer in a batch file so pgp checks the signature before it runs. if pgp fails the sig. your program is infected each virus is unique and acts differently, remember they are just written like normal programs. If you are indepth interested, search for a virus authors page. Anti-virus people are vague so you don't figure out how to make one but a virus author will probably have guides on how to make a virus. This gives you intimate knowledge of a virus's abilities. _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com

short comment from Adleman on DNA computing, DES and RSA
by Jean-Francois Avon 17 Dec '03

Hi Cypherpunks and e$-ers. After having read Adleman's Sci Am article, I couldn't help but ask him... :-) The following message is re-posted with his permission Ciao jfa ==================BEGIN FORWARDED MESSAGE================== From: Len Adleman <xxxxxxxx> To: Jean-Francois Avon <jf_avon(a)citenet.net> Subject: Re: Your article in Scientific American and RSA Thank you for the kind words regarding the Sci Am article. I have thought about using DNA for breaking cryptosystems. It does appear convievable that a code like DES could be broken. However, because RSA can simply increase the size of keys to overcome whatever computing power DNA provides, I do not think it represents a threat to RSA. We of course have a long way to go to see whether we can actually get DNA to live up to its potential. If you are unfamiliar with quantum computation I think you might enjoy reading about it - it, at least in theory, could represent a threat to RSA. I believe that you can find info on the www. -Len Jean-Francois Avon wrote: > Greetings. > > Your article in SciAm blew my mind! > > I bought the magazine after having seen it because of my interest/inquietude > of new computing ways that could break RSA (and similar public key) encryption > schemes. > > The most fantastic thing is that I bought the magazine after having browsed > the article but without even having read who was the author of the article! > [laughs] > > Now, here is my question, which you *surely* figured out: can a method could > be devised (using DNA computing) that would decrease the security of RSA?

FDR.doc and FDR2.doc
by Linda Reed--PCC West Campus CSC 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

It seems that the forementioned files never made it to the list (at least as echoed by infinity.nus.sg), as a result of being filtered out somewhere along the way due to their excessive size. Realizing that this was likely the result of filtering for the benefit of list members, so that they would not be stuck with wasting their resources downloading large amounts of tripe by] spamming assholes, I consulted John Gilmore as to what action to take on this matter. John informed me that one thing he learned from Dimitri was that, "The Spammer interprets filtering as common-sense, and routes around it." Accordingly, I have broken the files down into FDR1.txt --> FDR8.txt, so that the lack of AOL'ers competent enough to seriously piss off list members would not lead to VeteranAryan CypherPunks forgetting about the GoodOldDays (TM), when we had Sandy Sandfort to kick around for attempting to put a stop to this kind of bullshit.

FDR1
by Linda Reed--PCC West Campus CSC 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

As to the President, it is an account of an image projected upon the popular mind which came to be known as Franklin D. Roosevelt. It is the author's conviction that this image did not at all correspond to the man himself and that it is now time to correct the lineaments of this synthetic figure created by highly intelligent propaganda, aided by mass illusion and finally enlarged and elaborated out of all reason by the fierce moral and mental disturbances of the war. The moment has come when the costumes, the grease paint, the falsely colored scenery, the technicolored spotlights and all the other artifices of makeYDup should be put aside and, in the interest of truth, the solid facts about the play and the players revealed to the people. July, 1948 Preface to the Popsvox PublishingR edition Someone once said that Washington DC is a place where history is taken for granted and granite mistaken for history. The new FDR "memorial" is notable for what it forgets. John T. Flynn, active columnist and author throughout the Roosevelt years and beyond, made an enormous contribution to accurate reporting and genuine understanding of the New Deal. Unfortunately, Flynn's work has been out of print for decades while the politically correct elite have not only preserved the myth, they have now literally cast it in stone. Do not despair. The technology of the information age provides a remedy. Flynn is back, facts, footnotes and all, and in an electronically enhanced form unimagined in the age when journalists scribbled on notepads with pencil stubs. As a MicrosoftR WindowsR help file, it can be searched, annotated, printed out . . . or even read, page by pungent page. Even better for students, editorialists or online newsgroup debaters, the electronic version is only a mouse-click away when a citation is needed. No more flipping through paper texts in search of a passage about the Democratic National Committee or the $3,000.000 income Eleanor took down as First Lady. Find what you want when you want it. Add your own annotations and memory joggers. Tools are the human heritage, as are words and ideas. This revived book is produced for the Historical Research Foundation in New ork whose mission is the conservation of truth in history. - Ed. Saturday morning, March 4, 1933...the conquering Democrats poured into the city, hastening to take over after so many hungry years in the wilderness. {Hitler/1933?-sog} Only a week before an assassin's bullet had barely missed Roosevelt. It struck Anton Cermak, the Bohemian mayor and boss of Chicago, who with Al Smith, had opposed Roosevelt's nomination. he got the bullet intended for Roosevelt {BIG Assumption - sog}and died a few days later. Later, as Roosevelt's train sped from New ork to Washington carrying himself and his family, word came to him that aboard another train carrying the 65YDyearYDold Senator Thomas J. Walsh and his bride of two days, the aged groom dropped dead in his Pullman drawing room. He was speeding to the capital to be sworn in as Attorney General. Two weeks before the lameYDduck Congress had turned a somersault and voted the amendment to the Constitution ending Prohibition. FortyYDone legislatures were in session waiting eagerly for the chance to approve the wet amendment and to slap taxes on beer and liquor to save their empty treasuries. The country, the states, the towns needed money YD something to tax. And liquor was the richest target. "Revenue," said one commentator, "unlocked the gates for Gambrinus and his foaming steed." first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself." "The means of exchange are frozen in the streams of trade." "et our distress comes from no failure of substance. We are stricken by no plague of locusts3,300,000,000 YD in addition to all the other specific appropriations for government, into his hands to be spent at his sweet will in any way he desired. The great purse YD which is the greatest of all the weapons in the hands of a free parliament to oppose the extravagances of a headstrong executive YD had been handed over to him. The "spendthrift" Hoover was in California at his Palo Alto home putting his own affairs in order, while the great Economizer who had denounced Hoover's deficits had now produced in 100 days a deficit larger than Hoover had produced in two years. Roosevelt had no wish to stem the panic. The onrushing tide of disaster was sweeping the slate clean for him YD at the cost of billions to investors and depositors. The greater the catastrophe in which Hoover went out of power the greater would be the acclaim when Roosevelt assumed power. For this drastic decision there could be, of course, but one excuse, namely that Mr. Roosevelt had a definite plan and that such a plan could be better carried out with a full disaster. What, then, was his plan? We shall see presently.4 the crisis had assumed a terrifying aspect. To this was added the fear of inflation and of irresponsible and even radical measures by the new President. One of these, of course, was the agitation which went on behind the scenes for the nationalization of the whole banking system. Men close to the President-elect were known to be for this. Then Glass asked Roosevelt what he was going to do. To Glass' amazement, he answered: "I am planning to close them, of course." Glass asked him what his authority was and he replied: "The Enemy Trading Act" YD the very act Hoover had referred to and on which Roosevelt had said he had no advice from Cummings as to its validity. Glass protested such an act would be unconstitutional and told him so in heated terms. "Nevertheless," replied Roosevelt, "I'm going to issue a proclamation to close the banks." After delivering his inaugural address, Roosevelt issued a proclamation closing all banks. They decided that the action must be swift and staccato for its dramatic effect; that the plan, whatever it might be, must be a conservative one, stressing conventional banking methods and that all leftYDwing presidential advisers must be blacked out during the crisis; and finally that the President must make almost at the same time a tremendous gesture in the direction of economy. w it is difficult to believe that it could ever have been uttered by a man who before he ended his regime would spend not merely more money than President Hoover, but more than all the other 31 Presidents put together YD three times more, in fact, than all the Presidents from George Washington to Herbert Hoover. This speech was part of the plan Moley and Woodin had devised to sell the banking plan in a single package with the great economy program. To the great audience that listened to the fireside chat, the hero of the drama YD the man whose genius had led the country safely through the crisis of the banks YD was not any of the men who had wrestled with the problem, but the man who went on the radio and told of the plan he did not construct, in a speech he did not write. Thus Fate plays at her ageYDold game of creating heroes. a Great Man attended by a Brain Trust to bring understanding first and then order out of chaos. Actually there are no big men in the sense in which Big Men are sold to the people. There are men who are bigger than others and a few who are wiser and more courageous and farseeing than these. But it is possible with the necessary pageantry and stage tricks to sell a fairly bright fellow to a nation as an authentic BIG Man. Actually this is developing into an art, if not a science. It takes a lot of radio, movie, newspaper and magazine work to do it, but it can be done. {FDR/Hitler - sog} For the farmer the New Deal would encourage cooperatives and enlarge government lending agencies. But the greatest enemy of the farmer was his habit of producing too much. His surplus ruined his prices. The New Deal would contrive means of controlling the surplus and ensuring a profitable price. As for business the New Deal proposed strict enforcement of the antiYDtrust laws, full publicity about security offerings, regulation of holding companies which sell securities in interstate commerce, regulation of rates of utility companies operating across state lines and the regulation of the stock and commodity exchanges. Roosevelt in his preelection speeches had stressed all these points YD observing the rights of the states so far as to urge that relief, oldYDage pensions and unemployment insurance should be administered by them, that the federal government would merely aid the states with relief funds and serve as collection agent for social insurance. First of all, his central principle YD his party's traditional principle of war upon BIG government YD was reversed. And he set out to build a government that in size dwarfed the government of Hoover which he denounced. The idea of a government that was geared to assist the economic system to function freely by policing and preventive interference in its freedom was abandoned for a government which upon an amazing scale undertook to organize every profession, every trade, every craft under its supervision and to deal directly with such details as the volume of production, the prices, the means and methods of distribution of every conceivable product. This was the NRA. It may be that this was a wise experiment but it was certainly the very reverse of the kind of government which Mr. Roosevelt proposed in his New Deal. Enforcement of the antiYDtrust act was a longtime pet of his party and it was considered as an essential instrument to prevent cartels and trusts and combinations in restraint of trade which were supposed to be deadly to the system of free enterprise. The New Deal had called loudly for its strict enforcement. et almost at once it was suspended YD actually put aside during the experiment YD in order to cartelize every industry in America on the Italian corporative model. {Fascism! - sog} First, and most important, was the NRA and its dynamic ringmaster, General Hugh Johnson. As I write, of course, Mussolini is an evil memory. But in 1933 he was a towering figure who was supposed to have discovered something worth study and imitation by all world artificers everywhere. The NRA provided that in America each industry should be organized into a federally supervised trade association. It was not called a corporative. It was called a Code Authority. But it was essentially the same thing. These code authorities could regulate production, quantities, qualities, prices, distribution methods, etc., under the supervision of the NRA. This was fascism. The antiYDtrust laws forbade such organizations. Roosevelt had denounced Hoover for not enforcing these laws sufficiently. Now he suspended them and compelled men to combine. In spite of all the fine words about industrial democracy, people began to see it was a scheme to permit business men to combine to put up prices and keep them up by direct decree or through other devious devices. The consumer began to perceive that he was getting it in the neck. . A tailor named Jack Magid in New Jersey was arrested, convicted, fined and sent to jail. The crime was that he had pressed a suit of clothes for 35 cents when the Tailors' Code fixed the price at 40 cents. The price was fixed not by a legislature or Congress but by the tailors. The NRA was discovering it could not enforce its rules. Black markets grew up. Only the most violent police methods could procure enforcement. In Sidney Hillman's garment industry the code authority employed enforcement police.8 They roamed through the garment district like storm troopers. They could enter a man's factory, send him out, line up his employees, subject them to minute interrogation, take over his books on the instant. Night work was forbidden. Flying squadrons of these private coatYDandYDsuit police went through the district at night, battering down doors with axes looking for men who were committing the crime of sewing together a pair of pants at night. But without these harsh methods many code authorities said there could be no compliance because the public was not back of it. "Mob rule and racketeering had a considerable degree displaced orderly government."9 On May 27, 1935, the Supreme Court, to everybody's relief, declared the NRA unconstitutional. It held that Congress at Roosevelt's demand had delegated powers to the President and the NRA which it had no right to delegate YD namely the power to make laws. It called the NRA a Congressional abdication. And the decision was unanimous, Brandeis, Cardozo and Holmes joining in it. But of course he had imposed it not as a temporary expedient but as a new order and he boasted of it. He had done his best to impose the dissolution of the antiYDtrust laws on the country. Curiously enough, while Wallace was paying out hundreds of millions to kill millions of hogs, burn oats, plow under cotton, the Department of Agriculture issued a bulletin telling the nation that the great problem of our time was our failure to produce enough food to provide the people with a mere subsistence diet. Oliphant was a lawyer whose reformist addictions overflowed into every branch of public affairs. A devout believer in rubber laws, it was easy for him to find one which could be stretched to include rubber dollars. We are thus continuing to move toward a managed currency." Roosevelt's billions, adroitly used, had broken down every political machine in America. The patronage they once lived on and the local money they once had to disburse to help the poor was trivial compared to the vast floods of money Roosevelt controlled. And no political boss could compete with him in any county in America in the distribution of money and jobs. The poll indicated that Long could corral 100,000 voted in New ork State, which could, in a close election, cost Roosevelt the electoral vote there. Long became a frequent subject of conversation at the White House. Dr. Carl Austin Weiss, a young physician, eluded the vigilance of Long's guards and shot him. " A monument stands to the memory of this arch demagogue in the Hall of Fame of the Capitol building in Washington and his body rests in a crypt on the state capitol grounds YD a shrine to which crowds flock every day to venerate the memory of the man who trampled on their laws, spat upon their traditions, loaded them with debt and degraded their society to a level resembling the plight of a European fascist dictatorship. The Treasury and the Department of Justice went into action and before long there were income tax indictments against at least 25 of the Long leaders and henchmen. When little men think about large problems the boundary between the sound and the unsound is very thin and vague. And when some idea is thrown out which corresponds with the deeply rooted yearnings of great numbers of spiritually and economically troubled people it spreads like a physical infection and rises in virulence with the extent of the contagion. The spiritual and mental soil of the masses near the bottom of the economic heap was perfect ground for all these promisers of security and abundance. They had cooked up for themselves that easy, comfortable potpourri of socialism and capitalism called the Planned Economy which provided its devotees with a wide area in which they might rattle around without being called Red. But the time would come when they would approach much closer to their dream of a planned people. We shall see that later. He was a man literally without any fundamental philosophy. The positions he took on political and economic questions were not taken in accordance with deeply rooted political beliefs but under the influence of political necessity. NRA and the AAA. This was a plan to take the whole industrial and agricultural life of the country under the wing of the government, organize it into vast farm and industrial cartels, as they were called in Germany,as they were called in Italy, and operate business and the farms under plans made and carried out under the supervision of government. As for the Reds, they did not move in heavily until the second term and not en masse until the third term, although the entering wedge was made in the first. And then the point of entry was the labor movement. This thing called revolutionary propaganda and activity is something of an art in itself. It has been developed to a high degree in Europe where revolutionary groups have been active for half a century and where Communist revolutionary groups have achieved such success during the past 25 years. It was, at this time of which I write, practically unknown to political and labor leaders in this country and is still unknown to the vast majority of political leaders. He vetoed that but had an arrangement with the Democratic leadership that they would pass it over his head. Thus the President could get credit for trying to kill it while the Democrats would get credit for actually passing it. Their chief reliance was upon the charge that the President had usurped the powers of Congress, attacked the integrity of the courts, invaded the constitutional prerogatives of the states, attempted to substitute regulated monopoly for free enterprise, forced through Congress unconstitutional laws, filled a vast array of bureaus with swarms of bureaucrats to harass the people and breed fear in commerce and industry, discourage new enterprises and thus prolonged the depression, had used relief to corrupt and intimidate the voters and made appeals to class prejudice to inflame the masses and create dangerous divisions.

From the moment the gavel fell to open that wild conclave to the knock of the adjourning gavel everything that was said and done or that seemed to just happen was in accordance with a carefully arranged and managed scenario. The delegates were mere puppets and answered to their cues precisely like the extras in a movie mob scene. the South had both arms up to its shoulder blades in Roosevelt's relief and public works barrel. National politics was now paying off in the South in terms of billions. When Alf Landon talked about Roosevelt's invasions of the Constitution, the man on relief and the farmer fingering his subsidy check replied "ou can't eat the Constitution." As to the public debt he said we borrowed eight billions but we have increases the national income by 22 billions. Would you borrow $800 a year if thereby you could increase your income by $2200, he asked. That is what we have done, he answered, with the air of a man who has easily resolved a tough conundrum. And though the figures were false and the reasoning even more so it was practically impossible for a Republican orator to reason with voters against these seemingly obvious and plausible figures. The President's victory was due to one thing and one thing only, to that one great rabbit YD the spending rabbit YD he had so reluctantly pulled out of his hat in 1933. This put into his hands a fund amounting to nearly 20 billion dollars with which he was able to gratify the appetites of vast groups of people in every county in America . Without the revival of investment there could be no revival of the economic system. The system was being supported by government spending of borrowed funds. Roosevelt's unwillingness to compromise now angered his own supporters who were being forced to carry this unpopular cause. In the end he had to assure Robinson that he would have the appointment, and then to crown Roosevelt's difficulties, Robinson was stricken with a heart attack in the Senate and died shortly after, alone in his apartment. The Treasury made a practice of keeping tricky books and producing phony results. It had merely shifted relief payments to other accounts. They were, in fact, larger than the year before. Then he revealed the extent of his plans YD they would have to step up spending, forget about balancing the budget and get along with a two or three billion dollar a year deficit for two years. Then a conservative would come into office. That administration would do what Roosevelt had been promising he would do YD quit government spending. And then the whole thing would go down in a big crash. Then he revealed the extent of his plans YD they would have to step up spending, forget about balancing the budget and get along with a two or three billion dollar a year deficit for two years. Then a conservative would come into office. That administration would do what Roosevelt had been promising he would do YD quit government spending. And then the whole thing would go down in a big crash. What could he spend on? That was the problem. There is only a limited number of things on which the federal government can spend. The one big thing the federal government can spend money on is the army and navy. The depression which assaulted our unprepared society in 1929 was by no means a mysterious phenomenon to those who had given any attention to the more or less new studies in the subject of the business cycle. It was, first of all and essentially, one of those cyclical disturbances common to the system of private enterprise. That economic system has in it certain defects that expose it at intervals to certain maladjustments. And this was one of those intervals. Had it been no more than this it could have been checked and reversed in two or three years. But this cyclical depression was aggravated by additional irritants: 1. The banking system had been gravely weakened by a group of abuses, some of which arose out of the cupidity of some bankers and others out of ignorance. 2. A wild orgy of speculation had intruded into the system stimulated by a group of bad practices in the investment banking field. 3. A depression in Europe arising out of special causes there had produced the most serious repercussions here. The great, central consequence of these several disturbances was to check and then almost halt completely, the flow of savings into investment. All economists now know what few, apparently, knew then YD that in the capitalist system, power begins in the payments made by employers to workers and others in the process of producing goods. And this must be constantly freshened by an uninterrupted flow of savings into investment YD the creation of new enterprises and the expansion of old ones. If this flow of savings into investment slows down the whole economic system slows down. If it is checked severely the whole economic system goes into a collapse. throughout Hoover's term one of these YD the ruthless operation of gamblers in the stock market with the dangerous weapon of short selling YD continued to add at intervals spectacular crashes in the market which intensified the declining confidence of the people. But Hoover had against him, in addition to those natural, international and social disturbances, an additional force, namely a Democratic House of Representatives which set itself with relentless purpose against everything he attempted to do from 1930 on. It had a vested interest in the depression. and generally to do all those things he had denounced in Hoover without the slightest foundation for the charges. It was always easy to sell him a plan that involved giving away government money. It was always easy to interest him in a plan which would confer some special benefit upon some special class in the population in exchange for their votes. He was sure to be interested in any scheme that had the appearance of novelty and he would seize quickly upon a plan that would startle and excite people by its theatrical qualities. He did not dream of the incredible miracle of government BANK borrowing. He did not know that the bank lends money which it actually creates in the act of making the loan. When Roosevelt realized this, he saw he had something very handy in his tool kit. He could spend without taxing people or borrowing from them, while at the same time creating billions in bank deposits. Wonderful! Roosevelt discovered what the Italian Premier Giolitti had discovered over 50 years before, that it was not necessary to buy the politicians. He bought their constituents with borrowed money and the politicians had to go along. Those who, in their poverty and helplessness, refused to surrender their independence, paid for it. A man in Plymouth, Pa., was given a whiteYDcollar relief job before election at $60.50 a month. He was told to change his registration from Republican to Democratic. He refused and very soon found himself transferred YD transferred from his whiteYDcollar job to a pickYDaxe job on a rock pile in a quarry. There he discovered others on the rock pile who had refused to change their registration. This was in America, the America of the men who were chanting and crooning about liberty and freedom 365 days a year, who were talking about democracy and freedom for all men everywhere. These primaries of 1938, of course, were the scenes of the great Roosevelt purge, when distinguished Democratic senators and congressmen were marked for annihilation. It had already become a crime for a Democrat to disagree with the administration

They were eager for America to get into a war if it came. But they felt the people had to be drawn along a little at a time. They wanted the President to frighten the people a little as a starter. But he increased the recommended dose. The reaction was so violent that they felt it put back by at least six months the purpose they had in mind YD rousing America to a warlike mood. However, following the Panay incident, Mr. Hull began to churn up as much war spirit as possible and through the radio and the movies frantic efforts were made to whip up the anger of the American people. There never has been in American politics a religion so expansively and luminously righteous as the New Deal. >From the beginning to the end it was constant in one heroic enterprise YD war to the death upon evil, upon greed, poverty and oppression. It had, in fact, one monstrous enemy against which it tilted its shining spear seven days a week and that was SIN. If you criticized the New Deal, you were for sin. There is no vast sum of money in holding office. The riches are in the perquisites, the graft, legal and illegal, often collected by men who do not hold office but who do business with those who do. Some Democratic chieftains of the newer stripe began to drift into vice rackets of various sorts. It was this Tammany at its lowest level which surrendered to the New Deal and became finally the political tool of Mr. Roosevelt in New ork. From an oldYDfashioned political district machine interested in jobs and patronage, living on the public payroll and on various auxiliary grafts, some times giving a reasonably good physical administration of the city government, some times a pretty bad one, some times very corrupt, some times reasonably honest, it became a quasiYDcriminal organization flying the banner of the Free World and the Free Man. Cermak fought Roosevelt's nomination at Chicago, and went to Miami in February, 1933 to make his peace with Roosevelt where the bullet intended for Roosevelt killed him. {Who fired the shot? - sog} d before the House Committee Investigating UnYDAmerican Activities. Frey, in a presentation lasting several days, laid before the Committee a completely documented account of the penetration of the CIO by the Communist Party. He gave the names of 280 organizers in CIO unions It was the Communists who were engineering the sitYDdown strikes and who instigated and organized the Lansing Holiday when a mob of 15,000 blockaded the state capitol and 2,000 of them, armed with clubs, were ordered to march on the university and bring part of it back with them. At the Herald Tribune forum in New ork City about this time the President delivered one of the bitterest attacks he had ever made on a government official. It was against Martin Dies for investigating these Communist influences in the sitYDdown strikes. Sidney Hillman would become not only its dominating mind but Roosevelt's closest adviser in the labor movement and in the end, though not himself a Democrat, the most powerful man in the Democratic party. Sidney Hillman28 was born in Zargare, Lithuania, then part of Russia, in 1887. He arrived here in 1907 after a brief sojourn in England. it is entirely probable that Hillman, while not a Communist, was at all times sympathetic to the Communist philosophy. He was a revolutionist It is certain that the Russian revolution set off a very vigorous flame in Hillman's bosom. In 1922 he hurried over to Russia with a plan. He had organized here what he called the RussianYDAmerican Industrial Corporation with himself as president. Its aim was to operate the "textile and clothing industry of Russia." Hillman's corporation sold to labor organizations at $10 a share a quarter of a million dollars of stock. The circular letter of the corporation soliciting stock sales among labor unions said: "It is our paramount moral obligation to help struggling Russia get on her feet." Hillman went to Russia to sell the idea to Lenin. He cabled back from Moscow: "Signed contract guarantees investment and minimum 8 per cent dividend. Also banking contract permitting to take charge of delivery of money at lowest rate. Make immediate arrangements for transmission of money. Had long conference with Lenin who guaranteed Soviet support." Hillman was never an outright exponent of Communist objectives. He was, however, deeply sympathetic to the Communist cause in Russia and to the extreme leftYDwing ideal in America, but he was an extremely practical man who never moved upon any trench that he did not think could be taken. He never pressed his personal philosophy into his union and his political activities any further than practical considerations made wise. He was a resolute man who shrank from no instrument that could be used in his plans. He was a cocksure, selfYDopinionated man and he was a bitter man, relentless in his hatreds. He had perhaps one of the best minds in the labor movement YD sharp, ceaselessly active and richly stored with the history and philosophy of the labor struggle and of revolutionary movements in general. When Lewis and Dubinsky at a later date would leave the CIO, Hillman would be supreme and would reveal somewhat more clearly the deep roots of his revolutionary yearnings that had been smothered for a while under the necessities of practical leadership. There is no doubt that Hillman was one of the first labor leaders to use the goon as part of his enforcement machinery. Why should LaGuardia want to scuttle the investigation of a notorious murder? Why should the President of the United States refuse to deliver Lepke to Dewey and thus save him from going to the chair? Why save the life of a man convicted as the leader of a murder syndicate? Who was the leading politician supposed to be involved? Who was the nationally known labor leader? The murder for which Lepke was convicted and wanted for execution by Dewey and shielded by Roosevelt was, as we have seen, that of Joseph Rosen. Rosen was a trucking contractor who was hauling to nonYDunion factories in other states for finishing, clothing cut under union conditions in New ork. He was put out of business by Lepke in the interest of a local of Hillman's Amalgamated and Rosen was threatening to go to the district attorney and tell how this was done. But for some reason there rose to the surface at this time a lawless element, some of them criminal, some of them lawless in the excess of their revolutionary zeal, some of them just plain grafters. And these elements constituted the most powerful section of those groups that were supporting the President. This was in no sense the Army of the Lord, as it was so widely advertised. He wanted ambassadors from their own countries to tell them that other governments were "looking to Roosevelt as the savior of the world," as he put it himself. Farley admits this was done and says it was a mistake and that he said so at the time. With the rise of the New Deal, however, a vast army of persons appeared on the payroll of the federal government and because some of the payrolls were flexible and had no connection whatever with the Civil Service, it was a simple matter for the government to use this ancient but now enormously enhanced tool to control votes in particular localities. The story of the third term campaign which we shall now see is the story of dealing with all these groups, and the feasibility of doing so successfully was enormously enhanced by the fact that in September, 1939, just about the time the active work for the coming convention was under way, Hitler marched into Poland. {Just happens to fit right in with Planned Government/Economy - sog} On July 17, 1940, Franklin D. Roosevelt was nominated for the presidency for the third time. The prologue to this event was supplied by Europe. When the convention met, Willkie seemed the most unlikely of these candidates, but his strength grew. Dewey was eliminated on the fourth ballot and on the sixth, in a contest between Taft and Willkie, the latter was nominated in one of the most amazing upsets in convention history. The Democrats believed that Willkie would make a formidable opponent. But from the moment he was nominated the result of the election could no longer be in doubt. Charles McNary, Republican leader in the Senate, was nominated for the vice presidency. The joining of these two men YD Willkie and McNary YD was so impossible, they constituted so incongruous a pair that before the campaign ended McNary seriously considered withdrawing from the race. There was a moment in that convention when one voice was lifted in solemn warning, the full meaning of which was utterly lost upon the ears of the delegates. Former President Hoover, in a carefully prepared address, talked about the "weakening of the structure of liberty in our nation." He talked of Europe's hundredYDyear struggle for liberty and then how Europe in less than 20 years surrendered freedom for bondage. This was not due to Communism or fascism. These were the effects. "Liberty," he said, "had been weakened long before the dictators rose." Then he named the cause: "In every single case before the rise of totalitarian governments there has been a period dominated by economic planners. Each of these nations had an era under starryYDeyed men who believed that they could plan and force the economic life of the people. They believed that was the way to correct abuse or to meet emergencies in systems of free enterprise. They exalted the State as the solvent of all economic problems. These men shifted the relation of government to free enterprise from that of umpire to controller. Directly or indirectly they politically controlled credit, prices, production or industry, farmer and laborer. They devalued, pumpYDprimed and deflated. They controlled private business by government competition, by regulation and by taxes. They met every failure with demands for more and more power and control ... societies oneYDfourth socialist, threeYDfourths capitalist, administered by socialist ministries winding the chains of bureaucratic planning around the strong limbs of private enterprise. Mr. Hoover then undertook to describe the progress of this baleful idea here in a series of headlines: Vast Powers to President; Vast Extension of Bureaucracy; Supreme Court Decides Against New Deal; Attack on Supreme Court; Court Loaded with Totalitarian Liberals; Congress Surrenders Power of Purse by Blank Checks to President; Will of Legislators Weakened by Patronage and Pie; Attacks on Business Stirring Class Hate; Pressure Groups Stimulated; Men's Rights Disregarded by Boards and Investigations; Resentment at Free Opposition; Attempts to Discredit Free Press. e State Planned and Managed Capitalism Roosevelt executed a political maneuver that beyond doubt caused great embarrassment to the Republicans. He announced the appointment of Henry L. Stimson, who had been secretary of State under President Hoover, as Secretary of War, and Frank Knox, candidate for vice president with Landon in 1936, as Secretary of the Navy. He was laying his plans cunningly to have himself "drafted." The movement began some time in 1939 and the leaders in it were Ed Kelly of Chicago and Frank Hague of New Jersey. The debacle was the plan Roosevelt was engineering to literally put the party out of business by inducing its leaders not to contest his election. Commentators like Dorothy Thompson and H.V. Kaltenborn and other proYDwar writers were calling on the Republicans not to contest the election. And Roosevelt schemed to induce the presidential candidates of the party in 1936 to become Secretaries of War and Navy respectively in his cabinet. Wallace He has been pictured as a vague and impractical mystic, half scientist, half philosopher, with other ingredients that approach the pictures in the comic strips of the professor with the butterfly net. Wallace brought men like Tugwell into the Department as his UnderYDSecretary of Agriculture To understand what made this thoroughly dangerous man tick it is necessary to look at another widely advertised side of his nature YD his interest in mysticism. Some time in the 'twenties, a gentleman by the name of Nicholas Constantin Roerich appeared on the American scene. Roerich was a highly selfYDadvertised great philosopher on the Eastern Asiatic model. He gathered around himself a collection of admirers and disciples who addressed him as their "Guru" YD a spiritual and religious person or teacher. He dispensed to them a philosophic hash compounded of pseudoYDogism and other Oriental occult teachings that certain superior beings are commissioned to guide the affairs of mankind. Roerich wrote a long string of books YD "In Himalaya," "Fiery Stronghold," "Gates Into the Future," "The Art of Asia," "Flame in Chalice," "Realm of Light." Logvan and Logdomor were the names by which Horch was known in this mystic circle. stories in English language newspapers in China indicated that Roerich applied to the 15th U.S. Infantry in Tientsin for rifles and ammunition and that the expedition had mysterious purposes. He cried out in ecstasy in a speech: "The people's revolution is on the march and the devil and all his angels cannot prevail against it. They cannot prevail because on the side of the people is the Lord." Now he was fighting not George Peek and Hugh Johnson and Harold Ickes. He was fighting the devil and the bad angels. And he had on his side the lord, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and the good angels YD the Democrats and the CIO and, in good time, he would be joined by Joe Stalin and Glen Taylor, the singing Senator from Idaho. He would begin making world blueprints YD filling all the continents with TVAs, globeYDcircling sixYDlane highways, world AAAs, World Recovery Administrations, World Parliaments and International Policemen. This was the man chosen for Vice President by Roosevelt who had warned that his health was not too good and who forced this strange bird upon his party in the face of a storm of angry protest. . One of Roosevelt's early acts in foreign affairs was to recognize Soviet Russia. Three months later YD February 28, 1934 YD Elliott went into a deal with Anthony Fokker to sell the Soviet government 50 military planes for a price which would leave a commission of half a million dollars for Elliott and the same for Fokker It is estimated that she has received during the 15 years since she entered the White House at least three million dollars YD which is not very bad for a lady who had no earning power whatever before she moved her desk into the Executive Mansion, a lady whose husband spent a good deal of time denouncing the greed of men who made less for directing some of the greatest enterprises in America.17 Nevertheless, in spite of these defiances of all the amenities, all the laws imposed by decency, all the traditional proprieties and all that body of rules which highYDminded people impose upon themselves, the Roosevelt family, through a carefully cultivated propaganda technique not unlike that which is applied to the sale of quack medicines, imposed upon the American people the belief that they were probably the most highYDminded beings that ever lived in the White House. Behind this curtain of moral grandeur they were able to carry on in the field of public policy the most incredible programs which our people, unaccustomed to this sort of thing, accepted because they believed these plans came out of the minds of very noble and righteous beings. Why did the President permit his wife to carry on in this fantastic manner and why did the Democratic leaders allow her to do it without protest? ou may be sure that whenever you behold a phenomenon of this character there is a reason for it. The reason for it in this case was that Mrs. Roosevelt was performing an important service to her husband's political plans. There were never enough people in the country belonging to the more or less orthodox Democratic fold to elect Mr. Roosevelt. It was necessary for him to get the support of groups outside this Democratic fold. In the election of 1944, Governor Dewey got nearly half a million votes more on the Republican ticket than Roosevelt got on the Democratic ticket, but Roosevelt was the candidate of two other parties YD the American Labor Party of the Communists and the Liberal Party which was a collection of parlor pinks, technocrats, pious fascists and American nonYDStalinist Communists. These two parties gave him over 800,000 votes and it was this that made up his majority in New ork. The same thing was true in Illinois, in New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and other large industrial states, although the fact was not so obvious because the radicals operated inside the Democratic party where they could not be so easily identified. It was in this field that Mrs. Roosevelt performed her indispensable services to the President. It was she who fraternized with the Reds and the pinks, with the RedYDfascists and the technocrats and the crackpot fringe generally, gave them a sense of association with the White House, invited their leaders and their pets to the White House and to her apartment in New ork, went to their meetings, endorsed their numerous front organizations Finally in 1899 when she was 15 years old she was sent to a school called Allenwood, outside of London. It was a French school kept by an old pedagogist named Madame Souvestre who has taught Eleanor's aunt in Paris before the FrancoYDPrussian war After Roosevelt was stricken with infantile paralysis in 1921, she suddenly found herself for the first time in her life in a position approaching power on her own feet. While she, with her rather stern sense of formal responsibility, made every effort to bring about her husband's recovery, she also saw the necessity of keeping alive his interests in public affairs and his contacts and she set herself about that job. She had already fallen into acquaintance with leftYDwing labor agitators and she brought these people as frequently as she could to her imprisoned husband where they proceeded to work upon a mind practically empty so far as labor and economic problems were concerned. The moment a person of Mrs. Roosevelt's type exposes herself to these infections, the word gets around radical circles, whose denizens are quick to see the possibilities in an instrument of this kind. During Roosevelt's term in Albany she was extensively cultivated by these groups, so that when she went to Washington in 1933 they had easy and friendly access to her. I think it must be said for her that at this point YD in 1933 YD the country, including its public men, were not too well informed about the peculiar perils involved in Red propaganda activities. The Reds seized upon three or four very popular American democratic cults YD (1) freedom of speech, (2) the defense of the downtrodden laborer YD the forgotten man, (3) the succor of the poor. They also began to penetrate the colleges in both the teaching staffs and the student bodies through their various front organizations dominated by Reds. The first attempt to expose these designs was made by the House Committee on UnYDAmerican Activities. The attacks upon Martin Dies and the Dies Committee, as it was known, were engineered and carried out almost entirely by the Communist Party. But the Communist Party itself was powerless to do anything effective and it used some of the most powerful and prominent persons in the country to do its dirty work {Does this not also apply to all other organizations/religions? - sog} oung Communist League and a group of workers including William W. Hinckley (Roosevelt/Cremac - Reagan/Brady -- 2 Hinkleys? - sog} . Here was the wife of the President of the United States, a separate department of the government, using the White House as a lobbying ground for a crowd of young Commies and Pinkies against a committee of Congress.19 At this very moment, Joe Lash was living in the White House as Mrs. Roosevelt's guest, while Joe Cadden and Abbot Simon were occasional boarders there. . Joe Lash had been the leader of the movement in the American Student Union. Lash worked in collaboration with the Communist Party. After this, the American Student Union became a mere tool of the Red organization in America. the assembled young philosophers gave the President and Mrs. Roosevelt a hearty Bronx cheer. And now, of course, Mrs. Roosevelt felt they were Communists, although she had rejected all of the overwhelming evidence before that. Booing the President suddenly turned them into Communists. . A member of Congress, and ardent New Dealer, visited the White House one morning. While there he saw Abbot Simon of the national board of the American outh Congress, come out of one of the bedrooms. He couldn't believe his eyes. He asked the White House usher if he was mistaken. The usher assured him he was not, that this little Commie tool had been occupying that room for two weeks and sleeping in the bed Lincoln had slept in. These are probably not more than 80,000 or 90,000 in number, if that. But there are several hundred thousand, perhaps half a million, men and women in America, but chiefly in New ork and the large eastern industrial states, who string along with the Communists without being members of the party. The President's father was a sixth generation Roosevelt who played out decently the role of a Hudson River squire. He was a dull, formal and respectable person moving very narrowly within the orbit set by custom for such a man. By 1900, however, the name Roosevelt had become a good one for promotional purposeyYYYY".Y~Y~^Y~S<OYYYYY~`'""Yz--~s>oY~Y~ Y-YY Y~Y|Y~Y~cY~Y.Y*YDRY~YxYqY}Y~'YfY~YyY~Y~Yx Y/Y,Y+Y~Y(AAAAYYYYEYEEIIIIDNOOOOYxOUUUYY~YaYY YaYYYYY YYY Y !YYY~Y$YY"YoYYvYmYY#YYypYs, because it had become illustrious by reason of Theodore Roosevelt who belonged to a very different branch of the family. On Franklin D. Roosevelt's mother's side there was certainly nothing distinguished in the blood. Her father was a crusty old China Sea trader and opium smuggler. The family had much of its fortune in soft coal mines Roosevelt was born and grew up in the midst of a baronial estate, surrounded by numerous acres and many servants and hemmed about with an elaborate seclusion. What sort of boy he was we do not know, save that he was carefully guarded from other boys and grew up without that kind of boyhood association usual in America. The only books that really interested him were books on the Navy, particularly old books such as appeal to a collector. He did amass a considerable library in this field. It is to be assumed he read many of them. But the history of the Navy and its battles is not the history of the United States or of Europe or of their tremendous and complex political and social movements. They never elected anybody. They offered the nomination to young Roosevelt and he took it reluctantly. But this was an auspicious year for the New ork Democrats. In 1912, with the Republicans split in the great TaftYDRoosevelt feud, the Democrats swept the country and Roosevelt, though in bed throughout the campaign with typhoid, was reelected State Senator. When Wilson entered the White House and someone suggested it would be a good idea to have a Democratic Roosevelt in the administration, Franklin Roosevelt was offered the post of Assistant Secretary of the Navy, When the First World War ended he was 36. Apparently his service in the Department was satisfactory, though I have never seen anywhere any authentic evidence about it one way or the other. Actually he was not very well known and had absolutely no record of his own to justify the nomination. But luck dogged his heels. {Luck/good fortune/auscpicious circumstances/ad infinitum - sog} Then in August, 1921 Roosevelt was stricken with infantile paralysis, which put an end to his career in politics for the next seven years. During his Harvard days, shortly after his marriage, he and his bride took a trip to Europe YD a regular tourist's wandering from city to city. He had not been in Europe since save twice when he went as Assistant Secretary during the war on a naval inspection tour for about a month, and at the end of the war on another tour in connection with the demobilization of naval forces in Europe. et somehow his promotion managers whipped up the myth that he possessed some kind of intimate and close knowledge of Life up to this had been a long succession of gifts from Lady Luck, whose attendance he had come to think of as a settled and dependable affair. And she had failed him. The visitation of the terrible sickness had perhaps effaced from his character the assumption of superior fortune that made him hold his head so high In his efforts at recovery he had gone to Warm Springs, Ga., and spent several years there. But Warm Springs became the subject of one of the most curious deals in the nomination of a man to high office he said "one of the reasons he could not stand for governor was because he had put a great deal of his personal fortune into Warm Springs, and he felt he should stay and manage the enterprise so that it would eventually become a paying proposition." "Confirming my telephone message I wish much that I might consider the possibility of running for governor." Roosevelt then gave two reasons why he could not: (1) "our own record in New ork is so clear that you will carry the state no matter who is nominated" and (2) "My doctors are definite that the continued improvement in my condition is dependent on avoidance of a cold climate" and "daily exercise in Warm Springs during the winter months." He added: "As I am only 46 years old I owe it to my family and myself to give the present constant improvement a chance to continue ... I must therefore with great regret confirm my decision not to accept the nomination."31 {Roosevelt trying to 'back out' of his role as schill... -sog} Mrs. Roosevelt was in Rochester as a member of the Women's Committee for Al Smith. So were Ed Flynn and John J. Raskob, recently named chairman of the National Democratic Committee to manage Al Smith's campaign for the presidency. {...but Elanor is in deep. - sog} But Flynn told Smith that he believed Roosevelt could be induced to accept, that his health treatments were not the real reason for his refusal, that the real reason was the financial obligations he had outstanding at Warm Springs, that he was facing a heavy personal loss but that if this could be gotten out of the way he might yield. Smith told Flynn to tell Roosevelt they would take care of his financial problem. "I don't know how the hell we can do it, but we'll do it some way," he said.32 Flynn suggested that the problem be put up to Raskob. This was done. Smith asked Raskob to telephone Roosevelt. Raskob thought it over but decided to talk to Mrs. Roosevelt about it. He asked Mrs. Roosevelt for her frank opinion. She replied that if her husband were to say his health would permit him to run then Raskob could rely on it and that the real reason was the financial problem at Warm Springs. Everybody got the impression that Mrs. Roosevelt wanted her husband to run. Raskob then asked him to say frankly what they amounted to. Roosevelt replied: "Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars." Raskob then brought the whole matter to a head by saying: "All right. our nomination is important in New ork State. I am in this fight to get rid of Prohibition which I believe to be a terrible social curse and I think the only way to do it is to elect Al Smith. I am willing therefore to underwrite the whole sum of $250,000. ou can take the nomination and forget about these obligations. ou can have a fundYDraising effort and if it falls short of the total I will make up the difference." Roosevelt was a little flabbergasted at the offer. {Elanor was not? - sog} Roosevelt was built by propaganda, before the war on a small scale and after the war upon an incredible scale, into a wholly fictitious character YD a great magnanimous lover of the world, a mighty statesman before whom lesser rulers bowed in humility, a great thinker, a great orator YD one of the greatest in history YD an enemy of evil in all its forms. In his first administration someone was responsible for a very effective job of selling Roosevelt to the public. But over and above this some cunning techniques were industriously used to enhance the picture. For instance, Mrs. Roosevelt took over the job of buttering the press and radio reporters and commentators. They were hailed up to Hyde Park for hamburger and hot dog picnics. They went swimming in the pool with the Great Man. They were invited to the White House. And, not to be overlooked, it was the simplest thing in the world for them to find jobs in the New Deal for the members of their families. *** sog *** The most powerful propaganda agencies yet conceived by mankind are the radio and the moving pictures. Practically all of the radio networks and all of the moving picture companies moved into the great task of pouring upon the minds of the American people daily YD indeed hourly, ceaselessly YD the story of the greatest American who ever lived, breathing fire and destruction against his critics who were effectually silenced, while filling the pockets of the people with billions of dollars of war money. The radio was busy not only with commentators and news reporters, but with crooners, actors, screen stars, soap opera, comedians, fan dancers, monologists, putting over on the American mind not only the greatness of our Leader but the infamy of his critics, the nobility of his glamorous objectives and the sinister nature of the scurvy plots of his political enemies. The people were sold first the proposition that Franklin D. Roosevelt was the only man who could keep us out of war; second that he was the only man who could fight successfully the war which he alone could keep us out of; and finally that he was the only man who was capable of facing such leaders as Churchill and Stalin on equal terms and above all the only man who could cope successfully with the ruthless Stalin in the arrangements for the postYDwar world. *** sog *** The ordinary man did not realize that Hitler and Mussolini were made to seem as brave, as strong, as wise and noble to the people of Germany and Italy as Roosevelt was seen here. Hitler was not pictured to the people of Germany as he was presented here. He was exhibited in noble proportions and with most of those heroic virtues which were attributed to Roosevelt here and to Mussolini in Italy and, of course, to Stalin in Russia. I do not compare Roosevelt to Hitler. I merely insist that the picture of Roosevelt sold to our people and which still lingers upon the screen of their imaginations was an utterly false picture, was the work of false propaganda and that, among the evils against which America must protect herself one of the most destructive is the evil of modern propaganda techniques applied to the problem of government. {Eugenics was in vogue here, as well as Germany, and would have formed the science of the future *immediately* if Hitler had not been linked to its 'final outcome', giving it a bad name. - sog} There was really nothing complex about Roosevelt. He was of a wellYDknown type found in every city and state in political life. He is the wellYDborn, rich gentleman with a taste for public life, its importance and honors, who finds for himself a post in the most corrupt political machines, utters in campaigns and interviews the most pious platitudes about public virtue while getting his own dividends out of public corruption one way or another. e NRA Act provided an appropriation of $3,300,000,000 which the President was given to be spent for relief and recovery at his own discretion. He now had in his hands a sum of money equal to as much as the government had spent in ten years outside the ordinary expenses of government. He decided how it should be spent and where. If a congressman or senator wanted an appropriation for his district, instead of introducing a bill in Congress, he went up to the White House with his hat in his hands and asked the President for it. All over the country, states, cities, counties, business organizations, institutions of all sorts wanted projects of all kinds. Instead of going to Congress they went to the President. After that congressmen had to play along with the President or they got very little or nothing for their districts. This was the secret of the President's power, but it was also a tremendous blow at a very fundamental principle of our government which is designed to preserve the independence of the Congress from the Executive. In the same way, blankYDcheck legislation led to the subservience of Congress and the rise of the bureaucracy. Under our traditional system, Congress alone could pass laws. The executive bureau merely enforced the law. But now Congress began to pass laws that created large bureaus and empowered those bureaus to make "regulations" or "directives" within a wide area of authority. Under a law like that the bureau became a quasiYDlegislative body authorized by Congress to make regulations which had the effect of law. This practice grew until Washington was filled with a vast array of bureaus that were making laws, enforcing them and actually interpreting them through courts set up within the bureaus, literally abolishing on a large scale within that area the distinction between executive, legislative and judicial processes. Many of these bureaus were never even authorized by Congress. Even the Comptroller General of the United States, who audits the government's accounts, declared he had never heard of some of them. They were created by a new method which Roosevelt exploited. Instead of asking Congress to pass a law, set up a bureau and appropriate money, the President merely named a group of men who were authorized by him to organize a corporation under the laws of the states. This done, there was a government corporation instead of a bureau and a group of corporation directors instead of commissioners. The Reconstruction Finance Corporation was given a blanket appropriation by Congress and authority to borrow money. It borrowed twenty or more billions. The RFC would buy the stock of a new corporation and lend it money YD ten, fifty or a hundred million, billions in some cases. Thus the President bypassed Congress and the Constitution and engaged in activities as completely unconstitutional as the imagination can conceive, such as operating business enterprises in Mexico and Canada. By means of the blankYDcheck appropriations, the blankYDcheck legislation and the government corporation, there is no power forbidden to the government by the Constitution which it cannot successfully seize. And if these techniques are permitted to continue the Constitution will be destroyed and our system of government changed utterly without a vote of the people or any amendment to the Constitution. Roosevelt by his various hit or miss experiments all designed to get power into his hands, prepared a perfect blueprint for some future dictator of the modern school to usurp without very much difficulty all the powers he needs to operate a firstYDclass despotism in America. Having changed the Neutrality Act, given a million army rifles to England and increased the army to 1,500,000, the President took the next step YD he handed over to Britain 50 destroyers belonging to the American navy without authority of Congress. Those men and women who formed the various committees to induce this country to go into the war approved these moves. They were honest about it and logical, because they were saying openly we should give every aid, even at the risk of war. But the President was saying he was opposed to going to war and that he was doing these things to stay out of war. I do not here criticize his doing these things. I criticize the reason he gave, which was the very opposite of the truth. At the time he did these things, 83 per cent of the people month after month were registering their opposition to getting in the war. After the 1940 election, in fact early in 1941, the President's next decision was the LendYDLease proposal. Senator Burton K. Wheeler declared that this was a measure to enable the President to fight an undeclared war on Germany. The truth is that the President had made up his mind to go into the war as early as October, 1940. To believe differently is to write him, our naval chiefs of staff and all our high military and naval officers down as fools. The answer must be that Roosevelt lied to the people for their own good. And if Roosevelt had the right to do this, to whom is the right denied? At what point are we to cease to demand that our leaders deal honestly and truthfully with us? There must be a thorough philosophical inquiry into the limits within which this convenient discursive weapon can be used. It has been generally supposed that our diplomats are free to lie to foreign diplomats, also that in war and on the way into war we are free to lie ad libitum to the enemy. The right of the President YD and maybe certain lesser dignitaries YD to lie to our own people and, perhaps, in certain defined situations, to each other ought to be explored and settled. Thus it may be used impartially by the representatives of all parties. It does not seem fair to limit the right of lying only to good and truthful men. (TruthMonger Lives!!! - sog} President and the Prime Minister issued what they called a Joint Declaration. The most important parts of that document were the first three paragraphs: "First, their countries seek no aggrandizement, territorial or otherwise. "Second, they desire to see no territorial changes that do not accord with the freely expressed desires of the peoples concerned. "Third, they respect the right of all peoples to choose the form of government under which they will live and they wish to see sovereign rights and selfYDgovernment restored to those who have been forcibly deprived of them."

There was no reason for meeting at sea save the purely spectacular features which Roosevelt always loved. The dramatic effect of the meeting was very great. It made a thunderous radio story and massive headlines. But, as was so characteristic of Roosevelt, the great declaration of principles was a mere incident of the meeting. The purpose was wholly military. Three weeks after Pearl Harbor, Roosevelt sent for all the representatives in America of these occupied countries and said to them: "Be assured, gentlemen, that the restoration of the countries occupied by Germany and suffering under the Axis yoke is my greatest concern, which is shared in like degree by Mr. Churchill. We promise that all will be done to insure the independence of these countries." Churchill was present. He turned to the Polish Ambassador and said: "We will never forget what glorious Poland has done and is doing nor what heroic Greece and Holland have done in this war. I hope I need not add that Great Britain has set herself the aim of restoring full independence and freedom to the nations that have been overrun by Hitler." These reassurances were to be repeated many times with varying oratorical flourishes. And as for the "Atlantic Charter," which was nothing more than a screen to hide what had actually been done at Placentia Bay, a handsome copy of it was made, bearing the names of Churchill and Roosevelt, and placed on exhibition in the National Museum in Washington, where crowds viewed it with reverence as one of the great documents of history. . On November 27, just ten days before the attack, the President told Secretary Stimson, who wrote it in his diary, that our course was to maneuver the Japanese into attacking us. This would put us into the war and solve his problem. The Board of Economic Warfare was created to control the export of all materials seeking private export and to look after the procurement of all materials essential to the war effort, except arms and munitions. Vice President Wallace was named chairman of the Board of Economic Warfare (BEW). There was an element of "cloak and dagger" in this institution. It was at war with Hitler and Hirohito in the markets of the world. It bought things we needed. But it also bought, where necessary, things we did not need in order to preclude the enemy getting them. This was called "preclusive" buying. It issued thousands of export licenses every day. It was quite a bureau and it bulged with bureaucrats. At the top, next to Wallace, was a somewhat cheaper edition of Wallace YD an authentic New Deal bureaucrat, if there ever was one. He was Milo Perkins, executive director. Perkins was a man with a soul YD one of those souls that keeps making a lot of noise inside his body. He went in for art and music and finally Theosophy. The New Republic said of him that "for nine years at nine every Sunday morning, he donned his priestly robes, took along his sons and acolytes and preached to a congregation of fifty people." By 1943 the BEW had 200 economic commandos in the field fighting Hitler in the market places of the world and around 3,000 in Washington directing their weird operations Although this outfit spent $1,200,000,000, no law ever authorized it, and the Senate never confirmed the appointment of Wallace or Perkins. The President "grabbed the torch" and created it by edict. Of course, a great legion of economic soldiers had to have a chief economist. How they picked him I do not know. But these two great geopolitical warriors YD Wallace and Perkins YD came up with a gentleman named Dr. Maurice Parmalee, born in Constantinople. Parmalee wrote another book labeled "Bolshevism, Fascism and the Liberal Democratic State." In this he renders it feasible to introduce a planned social economy much more rapidly than has been the case in the U.S.S.R. ...The superficial paraphernalia of capitalism can be dispensed with more quickly than in the Soviet Union." But the doctor had strayed into much lighter fields of literature. He had also written a book called "Nudism in Modern Life" which is secluded in the obscene section of the Library of Congress. In it the doctor revealed his interest in a science called Gymnosophy, a cult of the old gymnosophists who it seems were ancient Hindu hermit philosophers who went around with little or no clothing. "these gymnosophist nudist colonies furnish excellent opportunities for experiments along socialist lines ... Customary nudity is impossible under existing undemocratic, social and economic and political organization." A new chief economist was brought in YD Dr. John Bovingdon. Bovingdon was no fool. He went to Harvard and graduated with honors, which is more than Mr. Roosevelt did. But he, too, was one of those free spirits of the wandering winds who had managed to live for a while in the Orient, three years in Europe and England, two years in Russia and for smaller terms in 22 other countries. His Harvard class reunion book said he "engaged in art activities, painting on fabrics, poetry, dancing, acting, consultant on the Moscow Art Theater, oneYDman commercial monodrama programs, weaving, sandalYDmaking" and so on. In 1931 the police in Los Angeles raided a Red pageant for a Lenin Memorial which Bovingdon was staging. The experience shook Mr. Bovingdon terribly and he went to Russia. He got a job in Moscow as a director of the International Theatre. He worked as a journalist in the world of free Russian speech, wrote radio scripts and plays. He decided to return to the United States to make us understand Russia. In January, 1938, he appeared in Long Beach, California, at the town's first "Communist Party celebration on the 14th anniversary of Lenin's death." By what curious movement of the stars did these weird ideological brothers turn up on posts of the greatest importance in the councils of the New Deal? As fast as one was pushed out another moved in. It could not be by chance, since this happened in practically every important bureau. {Can you say 'conspiracy?...sure you can... - sog} These two strange birds were not isolated cases. The UnYDAmerican Activities Committee gave Wallace a list of 35 Communists in the BEW. That information was merely brushed aside with some insulting smear against the Committee. It mattered not what the New Dealer touched, it became a torch to be grabbed, it became an instrument for use in his adventures in social engineering, and after June, 1941 when Hitler turned on his partner Stalin, these bureaus became roosting places for droves of Communist termites who utilized their positions as far as they dared to advance the interests of Soviet Russia and to help "dispense with the superficial paraphernalia of capitalism" in this country under cover of the war. By no means a basically bad person, he was congenitally incapable of resisting the destructive personal effects of power. *** sog *** >From the four corners of the land, as well as from the pink and Red purlieus of New ork and Chicago and every big city, came the molders of the Brave New World. *** sog *** They put their busy fingers into everything. They dictated women's styles, the shapes of women's stockings; they told butchers how to carve a roast; they limited the length of Santa Claus' whiskers in department stores. At one time there was an almost complete breakdown of food distribution throughout the United States. The paper work required of an ordinary small merchant was so extensive that it was practically impossible to comply with. These rules and regulations became so irksome that people ignored them. Then the OPA set up a nationwide network of courts before which citizens could be hauled up and tried for breaking laws enacted by OPA bureaucrats. If convicted, they could, under OPA rulings, have their ration cards taken away from them YD sentenced to starve. One may talk about the profits of war, but there were in truth little profits for honest men because the government YD and rightly YD during the war drained away in drastic taxes most of the profits. In the financing and supervision of the war effort from Washington practically every fiscal crime was committed. And the plain evidence of that is before us in the bill for the war. Few realize how vast it was. For the mind, even of the trained financier, begins to lose its capacity for proportion after the figures pass beyond the limit of understandable billions. The war cost I reckon at 363 billion dollars. Chapter Eight - The Thought Police 1. If there is one department of human struggle which the radical revolutionist understands and loves it is the war that is waged on the mass mind; the war that is carried on with poisons distilled in the mind to produce bias and hatred. It would be strange indeed if we did not find some of the practitioners of this dark art from New ork and some of the offYDscourings of Europe's battered revolutionary emigres numerously entrenched in that thoroughly unYDAmerican institution during the war which was known as the OWI YD the Office of War Information. It began with a thing called the Office of Facts and Figures. a drove of writers and journalists whose souls were enlisted in the great crusade to bring on the Brave New World of the Future. It was in fact an agency for selling Roosevelt's Third New Deal and Roosevelt himself to the people under the guise of "maintaining public morale" and conducting "psychological warfare." , OWI spent $68,000,000 and had 5,561 agents scattered all over the world. But OWI had other tasks than selling America to the Arabs. It was also busy selling Russia to the Americans. The chief of the Foreign Language Section of OWI was a young gentleman 28 years old who had spent his entire life on New ork's East Side, who spoke no foreign language and yet had the decision on whether news should be released to Europe or not. Anybody who disagreed with his high admiration for our Soviet ally was labeled a fascist. There was another child wonder YD 23 years old YD who was the Russian expert of the OWI and who saw to it that nothing went out that was displeasing to the objectives of our noble ally YD including grabbing ugoslavia. OWI's broadcasts to Poland ended not with the Polish national anthem but with a song adopted by the Polish emigres in Moscow who were known as Stalin's "Committee of Liberation." The expert in charge of the Polish section was actually born in Poland, but left there and spent the rest of his life in France where he was notorious as a Communist. He fraternized with the Vichy government while Hitler and Stalin were pals, but when Hitler invaded Russia he came to America and quickly became OWI's expert in explaining American democracy to the people of Poland.51 The deputy director of the Pacific and Far Eastern Area was a British subject until he got a government job in Washington in 1942. While running this important bureau for OWI, he wrote a play which was produced at Hunter College. Burton Rascoe, reviewing it, said: "Its most conspicuous purpose is to idealize the Red Army in China, to defame the Chungking government under Chiang KaiYDshek and to ridicule the political, social and educational ideas of the vast majority of the American people."52 The men, material, cable and wireless time used up by OWI were immense. It ran 350 daily radio programs and had a daily cableYDwireless output of 100,000 words. It was the world's largest pamphlet and magazine publisher and a big movie producer, sending shorts to every country in the world. It sent out 3,500 transcribed recordings a month and turned out 50 movie shorts a year. The content of most of this material was pure drivel. All of this work was not just naive. OWI printed 2,500,000 pamphlets called "The Negro in the War,"54 with pictures of Mr. and Mrs. Roosevelt, the Negroes' friends, in preparation for the fourthYDterm campaign. It printed a handsome volume called "Handbook of the United States"55 and gave a British firm the right to publish it. This gave a history of America, with the story from Leif Ericson's discovery up to 1932 in four and oneYDhalf pages. The rest of the history was devoted to Roosevelt and his New Deal. This was in 1944 and a national election was coming and England was jammed with American soldiers who could vote. It had a department that supplied the pulp paper magazines with direction and suggestions on how to slant mystery and love stories. Western story writers were told how to emphasize the heroism of our allies YD you know which one. Writers were told to cast their soap operas with silent, dogged Britons, faithful Chinese and honest Latins. They must portray Japanese as having set out to seize our Western seaboard and the sly and treacherous characteristics of the Jap must be contrasted with the faithfulness of the Chinese. They suggested that Sax Rohmer's Fu Manchu be turned into a Jap instead of a Chinese. When the war began the government, recognizing the need for protecting our military operations from leaks through careless or uninformed press reporting, organized the Office of Censorship headed by Byron Price, an able official of the Associated Press. To this bureau was given the power to monitor all communications. It set up a censorship organization which all publishers and broadcasters voluntarily cooperated with. It worked admirably and Mr. Price won the unstinted approval of the press for his capable and tactful, yet firm, handling of this difficult problem. No other government agency had any authority whatever to engage in this activity. And it was never intended that anybody should have the power to attempt to interfere with the rights of citizens to discuss with freedom all political questions, subject only to the obligation not to divulge information that would aid the enemy or defeat our military operations. Nevertheless, the OWI and Federal Communications Commission (FCC) took upon themselves the power to carry on the most extensive propaganda among, and the most dangerous interference with, the foreignYDlanguage broadcasting stations. Of course the ordinary American official was hardly aware of the opportunities this kind of thing gave to those who had political or ideological axes to grind. It was important to see that nothing subversive and nothing that would adversely affect the war effort was used. And for this purpose the Office of Censorship was admirably equipped and managed. But the FCC decided that it would take a hand, not merely in monitoring the stations but in literally directing and controlling them. The OWI similarly arrived at the same conclusion. It also set up a division for dealing with the problems of the foreignYDborn through radio. Mr. Eugene L. Garey, chief counsel of the Congressional Select Committee Investigating the FCC, speaking of these conditions said: "From the record thus far made it appears that, in one foreign language broadcasting station in New ork City, the program director, the announcer, the script writer, the censor, and the monitor of the ItalianYDlanguage programs are all aliens or persons owing their positions to the Office of War Information, with the approval of the FCC. "The situation thus portrayed is not peculiar to this single station, or to this one city. Information in our possession indicates that the same situation prevails generally in the foreign language stations throughout the country. Every such key position in each of the three radio stations presently under investigation are found to be similarly staffed. These staffs select the news, edit the script, and announce the program. The program, in turn, is censored by them, monitored by them, and is presented under the direction of a program director of similar character. "From these apparently unrelated facts the picture must be further developed. "OWI had the men and the material. It had the proper dye to color the news. It also had the desire to select and censor the news. What it lacked was the power, or perhaps more accurately stated, even the color of power, to carry their designs into effect. Hence the need to enlist the Federal Communications Commission in its purpose. "True it is that the Federal Communications Commission had no such lawful power, but the Federal Communications Commission did have the power to license and hence the power to compel obedience to its directions. The record now shows their unlawful use of this power. "Working together in a common purpose, the Federal Communications Commission and the Office of War Information have accomplished a result that compels pause YD and presents the solemn question of 'Whither are we going?' "A division called the War Problems Division was created by the Federal Communications Commission, and a staff of attorneys began to function. "This division was not a regulatory body. It was not formed to instruct, or supervise, or to correct. It was formed for the avowed purpose of unlawfully liquidating all of the radio personnel in the foreignYDlanguage field that did not meet with its favor. A real gestapo was created and a lawless enterprise was launched. "It is suggested that we accept this unlawful situation as a benevolent expedient of the moment, but no such purpose as we find here disclosed, however benevolently cloaked, can justify the practices we find. All tyranny begins under the guise of benevolence. "The voices of these aliens go into our homes, and the unwary are led to believe that they speak with authority and official approval. They even censor our Christmas and Easter religious programs, and tell us what music we may hear. The FCC is alarmed about whether we will react properly to news furnished by our national news agencies. Apparently we can still read the news in our press, but we can only hear what these aliens permit us to. What next medium of communications will receive the benevolent attention of these misguided zealots? Obviously, the press. "These interpreters of our national policy YD these slanters of our news YD these destroyers of free speech YD are alien in birth, alien in education, alien in training and in thought. "And still these are the people who are permitted to mold our thoughts YD to tell us what America's war aims and purposes are. These people are in position to color, to delete, or to slant, as they see fit, in accordance with their own peculiar alien views and ideologies. "Persons are being accused of being proYDfascist, and that without proof and without trial. Persons suspected of being proYDfascist, and without proof, have been removed from the air and replaced by wearers of the Black Shirt ... "If the radio can thus be controlled in August, 1943, there is nothing to prevent the same control from slanting our political news and nothing to prevent the coloring of our war aims and purposes when peace comes."57 In the presence of a government which had enlarged its power over the lives and the thoughts and opinions of citizens and which did not hesitate to use that power, the whole citizenry was intimidated. Editors, writers, commentators were intimidated. Men whose opinions did not conform to the reigning philosophy were driven from the air, from magazines and newspapers. While American citizens who were moved by a deep and unselfish devotion to the ideals of this Republic YD however wrongYDheaded that may be in the light of the new modes of "freedom" YD were forced into silence, the most blatant and disruptive revolutionary lovers of the systems of both fascism and Communism and that illegitimate offspring of both YD Red fascism YD were lording it over our minds. All this was possible for one reason and one reason only YD because the President of the United States countenanced these things, encouraged them and in many cases sponsored them, not because he was a Communist or fascist or held definitely to any political system, but because at the moment they contributed to his own ambitions. When a nation is at war, its leaders are compelled by the necessities of practical administration to use every means at hand to sell the war to the people who must fight it and pay for it. As part of that job it is usual to include the leader himself in the package. He is therefore portrayed in heroic proportions and colors in order to command for his leadership the fullest measure of unity. War, as we have seen, puts into the hands of a leader control over the instruments of propaganda and opinion on an everYDincreasing scale. In our day the press, the radio, the movies, even the schoolroom and the pulpit are mobilized to justify the war, to magnify the leader and to intimidate his critics. The citizen who is hardy enough to question the official version of the leader and his policies may find himself labeled as a public enemy or even as a traitor. Hence as the war proceeds, amidst all the trappings which the art of theater can contribute, it is possible to build up a vast fraud, with an everYDmounting torrent of false news, false pictures, false eulogies and false history. After every war many years are required to reduce its great figures to their just proportions and to bring the whole pretentious legend back into focus with truth. the public was treated to the royal spectacles off the coast of Newfoundland aboard the Augusta, at Quebec, Casablanca, Moscow, Cairo, Teheran and finally at alta. Eloquent communiques pretended to inform the people of what had been agreed on. We now know that these communiques told us little of what had happened; that the whole story lay, for long, behind a great curtain of secrecy; that much YD though not all YD has now been painfully brought to light and that what stands revealed is a story very different from that heroic chronicle of triumphs with which we were regaled at the time. As Roosevelt saw it, Stalin was his great target. He began by completely deceiving himself about Stalin. First of all, he decided he must cultivate Stalin's good will and to do this he convinced himself he must sell Stalin to our people. Accordingly the instruments of propaganda which he could influence YD the radio and the movies and to a considerable degree, the press YD were set to work upon the great task. Under the influence of this benevolent atmosphere the Reds in New ork and their compliant dupes, the fellowYDtravelers, swarmed into Washington and presently were sitting in positions of power or influence in the policyYDmaking sections of the government. Joe Davies had been induced to go to Moscow, wrote his notorious "Mission to Moscow," a jumble of obvious fictions which were later transferred to the screen several times exaggerated and shot into millions of minds in movie houses. We know now from the election returns of 1944 that the Reds had in their hands enough support to have turned the tide against Roosevelt. In New ork State, for instance, Roosevelt won its 47 electoral votes by a majority of 317,000. But he got 825,000 votes from the Red American Labor Party dominated by the Communists, which had also nominated him, and the American Liberal Party made up of the pinks, which also nominated him. Without these votes he would have lost the state. He dared not defy these two powerful groups. On the other hand, he was in a very deep hole with the votes of the Polish, Lithuanian, Serbian and other Baltic and Balkan peoples living in America who were citizens. He had betrayed the Poles, the Serbs and the Baltic peoples. But he had managed to keep it dark. Somehow he must avoid any publication of the truth until after the election. They made a decision at Quebec which has up to this moment paralyzed utterly the making of a stable peace in Europe and is pregnant with consequences so terrible for the future that the mind draws away from them in consternation. Secretary Hull said: "This was a plan of blind vengeance ... It failed to see that in striking at Germany it was striking at all Europe." The proposals "that the mines be ruined was almost breathtaking in its implications for all Europe." Beyond all this, of course, was our dignity as a civilized people. The barbarians could sweep into enemy countries and ravage their fields, burn their cities and murder their leaders. This is a job from which a civilized people must recoil if they have not lost their souls. Roosevelt agreed to the Morgenthau Plan to destroy German industry and to reduce Germany to a country primarily agricultural and pastoral. Secretaries Hull and Stimson did not know anything about it until four days after it was done. e the contents of the Morgenthau Plan leaked to the papers and Roosevelt became alarmed at the violence of the reaction, a fine evidence of the fundamentally decent nature of the majority of Americans. In the end the President was persuaded to get out of this appalling agreement so far as destroying the mines of the Ruhr were concerned. But Stimson declares "the same attitude remained," and the whole world now knows of the frightful wreckage that was carried on in Germany and the blow to the economy of all Europe that was delivered in the name of "blind vengeance" and immortal hatred. The administration was now the hopeless prisoner of these demanding and ruthless radical labor leaders, who had shown their ability to elect or defeat the Democratic party, who had filled all the departments and bureaus with their agents and who had insinuated their experts into the CIO labor unions and their propagandists into the radio, the movies and all the great instruments of communication and opinion YD a fact which Mr. Roosevelt's successors would have to face when the war ended. What had become of the Atlantic Charter? On December 20, 1944, the President at a press conference was asked about the Charter which he and Churchill had signed. His reply literally bowled over the correspondents. There was not and never had been a complete Atlantic Charter signed by him and Churchill, he replied. Then where is the Charter now, he was asked. He replied: "There wasn't any copy of the Atlantic Charter so far as I know." It was just a press release. It was scribbled on a piece of paper by him and Churchill and Sumner Welles and Sir Alexander Cadogan. It was just handed to the radio operator aboard the British and American warships to put on the air as a news release. Further inquiry revealed that Stephen Early had handed it out on his own with the signatures of Churchill and Roosevelt attached. And over on the wall of the National Museum in Washington, beautifully framed and illuminated after the manner of an ancient document YD like Magna Carta or the Declaration of Independence YD was the great Atlantic Charter itself, with the signatures of Roosevelt and Churchill. Daily visitors stood before it as before some great historic document. John O'Donnell, of the New ork Daily News, asked the curator where he got it. He answered that it came from the Office of War Information. They had "loaned" the precious document to the National Museum. By inquiry at the OWI YD that prolific fountain of phony news YD O'Donnell learned that OWI had gotten it up and affixed the names of Roosevelt and Churchill. They had printed 240,000 copies of it. O'Donnell went back to the Museum with this information. And lo! the great Charter was gone. An attendant told him it had been ordered off the wall twenty minutes before. Thus ended the story of this wretched fraud. The fake document which was never signed and was nothing more than a publicity stunt to conceal the real purposes of the Atlantic meeting had been slain by its chief sponsor and, of course, all its highYDsounding professions, after Teheran, had become as sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal. On January 20, 1945, Roosevelt was sworn in as President of the United States for a fourth term. Three days later he left Norfolk on the heavy cruiser Quincy for what was to be his last act in the hapless drama of peace.

The Polish question was "settled." The formal proposal to hand over eastern Poland YD east of the Curzon line YD was made by Roosevelt himself.102 As to western Poland, Stalin already had a government there named by him and composed of Communists representing no one but Stalin himself. Russia wanted the amount to be 20 billion dollars of which she would take half. It was agreed that labor might be taken as a possible source of reparations. This was just a diplomatic way of authorizing the seizure of human beings to work as slaves after the war ended and is the basis of that dreadful crime perpetrated after hostilities ceased to which the President of the United States agreed. As the conference ended, Roosevelt remained an extra day because Stalin wanted to talk with him. He did so alone. What he wanted settled was "the political aspects of Russia's participation" in the Pacific. This he was able to do very quickly and to his complete satisfaction. In return for Russian participation in the Pacific, Roosevelt agreed that the Kuriles Islands would be handed to Russia, who would also get Sakhalin Island, internationalization of the Port of Darien, the lease of Port Arthur as a naval base and joint operation with China of the Eastern and Southern Manchurian railroads. And Roosevelt promised to use his influence with Chiang to force him to agree. This secret agreement, like the one supporting the use of slave labor, was not made public and was concealed even from Byrnes who was Roosevelt's adviser at alta. He did not hear of it until after Mr. Roosevelt's death. Then he saw a reference to it in a Russian dispatch. By that time he was Secretary of State. He asked President Truman to have the White House records searched for this and any other secret outstanding I.O.U.'s.105 He did suggest that to avoid criticism at home the United States be given three votes too. And Stalin agreed. When Byrnes got back to the United States he found a note from Roosevelt instructing him not to discuss this agreement even in private. Later Roosevelt decided not to ask for the three votes for the United States. Byrnes says he never discovered the reason.106 On the way home General Watson, his military secretary, died suddenly of heart disease. Roosevelt reached Washington the end of February. On March 1 he appeared before a joint session of Congress. He told the Congress that "more than ever before the major allies are closely united," that "the ideal of lasting peace will become a reality." There was no hint that the surrender which was now formally announced with respect to eastern Poland was in fact a major defeat. The disappearance of the Baltic states and practically all the Balkans behind Stalin's iron curtain was not announced in any other terms than as a great forward step in the liberation of Europe. As for western Poland, there were heavy overtones of guilt and frustration unintentionally evident. In two months Roosevelt was dead. Truman became President. Shortly after, in May, the German Army surrendered. The fighting was in the West was over. "Silent, mournful, broken Czechoslovakia recedes into the darkness. She has suffered in every respect by her association with the Western democracies." Chamberlain appeased Hitler and averted war. Churchill got for England both a war and appeasement. Stalin had merely to sit tight, to make known his wishes and Roosevelt laid them in his lap with eager compliance in the notion that he could thus soften Stalin. It is all the more incredible when we remember that the things he was laying in Stalin's lap were the existence of little nations and the rights of little peoples we had sworn to defend. And when Truman and Byrnes went to Potsdam what confronted them was an appalling mess. Roosevelt not only made agreements secret from the people but secret from his closest advisers in the government. He made agreements with Stalin hostile to the objectives of Churchill and kept secret from Churchill. He made secret agreements with Chiang KaiYDshek, secret from both Churchill and Stalin, and secret agreements in derogation of Chiang KaiYDshek's interests without his knowledge. And he made many secret agreements which no one in our State Department knew about until his death and then learned about them the hard way, by having them flung in their faces at embarrassing moments by Molotov. At the end of all this, Russia held in her hands a vast belt of land running from the Baltic sea in the north to the Black Sea in the south, comprising eleven nations with a population of 100 million people. These she held, not as parts of the Soviet Union, but as puppet states, presided over by Red Quislings of Stalin's own selection who represented him and not the people they governed, any more than Quisling represented the people of Norway. The truth is that Roosevelt was a dying man when he was elected, that many of those around him knew it, that the most elaborate care was exercised to conceal the fact from the people and that the misgivings of those who observed it were justified by events, since he died less than three months after his fourth inauguration. The progress of that illness and the means employed to deceive the people must be examined. Rear Admiral Ross T. McIntire, his official physician, felt called upon to put in a book his formal apologia. He was a naval officer employed by the people to watch over the President's health and these statements had the effect of deceiving the employers of the President and of the Admiral YD namely the people. What disease Roosevelt suffered from at Hyde Park and later, that produced such grave consequences, we do not know save upon the statements of Dr. McIntire. Many other doctors were called in to examine the patient, but none of these men has ever made any statements. However, while the illness seemingly began at Hyde Park after the return from Teheran, there is at least some evidence that he was far from sound before that time. Three men have written about the trip to Cairo and Teheran YD Dr. McIntire, Mike Reilly, chief of the President's Secret Service guard, and Elliott Roosevelt. The President went to Cairo by sea. But he wanted to fly from there to Teheran. Reilly tells us that Admiral McIntire "did not want to submit some of the members of the party to the rigors of high altitude flight" but that "the President was not one of these members."112 And McIntire volunteers the information that Roosevelt suffered no discomfort on high altitude flights and had shown no signs of anoxemia when flying at altitudes of 10,000 to 12,000 feet.113 ou might suppose from this Roosevelt was quite a flier. et he had never been in a plane since he flew to Chicago for his first acceptance speech 11 years before until he made the trip to Casablanca YD his only flight while President before Teheran. However, Elliott Roosevelt in his book defeats these yarns. He tells how McIntire was worried about Father's projected flight. "I'm serious, Elliott," says McIntire. "I think he could fly only as far as Basra and then go on by train." Elliott wanted to know what height his father might fly, to which McIntire replied: "Nothing over 7500 feet YD and that's tops."114 Elliott talked to the President's proposed pilot, Major Otis Bryan who, with Mike Reilly, made an inspection flight from Teheran to Basra and back and reported that the trip could be made without going higher than 7000 feet, which, says Elliott, "pleased Father very much."115 Thus McIntire and Reilly are both caught redYDhanded misleading their readers. This was before Teheran. Elliott talked to the President's proposed pilot, Major Otis Bryan who, with Mike Reilly, made an inspection flight from Teheran to Basra and back and reported that the trip could be made without going higher than 7000 feet, which, says Elliott, "pleased Father very much."115 Thus McIntire and Reilly are both caught redYDhanded misleading their readers. This was before Teheran. Whatever malady struck Roosevelt down at Hyde Park in December and kept him pretty much out of circulation until nearly the middle of May, 1944, we know that McIntire at that time caused a heart specialist from Boston to be inducted into the service to remain continuously at Roosevelt's side and that this heart specialist, Dr. Howard Bruenn, said a year later at Warm Springs that he "never let Roosevelt out of his sight," which is a most unusual performance in the case of a patient whose "stout heart never failed him," as Dr. McIntire puts it A great mystery surrounded this illness. . He was dying slowly at first, rapidly later. And at his side as his chief adviser was another dying man YD Harry Hopkins. Hopkins had had a portion of his stomach removed for ulcers and what was known as a gastroYDenterotomy performed. After this his liver troubled him and the gall bladder failed to supply satisfactorily the essential bile necessary to digestion. These two dying men, floating slowly out of life, were deliberately put into power through a fourthYDterm election by a carefully arranged deception practiced upon the American people and upon some, at least, of the party leaders. Here was a crime committed against a great nation which had made tremendous sacrifices and against the peace and security of the world in a moment of the gravest danger. History will pronounce its verdict upon all who were guilty. Dr. McIntire was immediately notified of the stroke in Washington and he, Mrs. Roosevelt and Steve Early left at once by plane for Warm Springs, arriving there at 11 P.M. They immediately decided to have no autopsy. The body was consigned to its coffin and orders issued not to open it. It was taken from Warm Springs next morning at 9 o'clock. It reached Washington next day YD the 14th YD and after lying for a few hours without ever being opened was taken that night to Hyde Park for interment next day. It has been the custom in the past for the remains of deceased Presidents to lie in state in the Capitol. This was not done. Present in the cottage when the President was stricken were the artist, Mrs. Schoumantoff, who was painting his portrait, his two cousins, his valet and several others. The artist, a Russian, was ordered to leave at once. She took a train without delay and was not located until two days later at Locust Valley, L.I. At St. Helena the British government provided its illustrious prisoner, Napoleon I, with a physician. He was Dr. Francesco Antomarchi, a Corsican, who however, did not seem particularly fond of his fallen countryman and who failed signally to win Napoleon's confidence. Dr. Antomarchi persisted to the end in the belief that his royal patient was not seriously ill. Napoleon convinced himself that his physician did not know what he was doing and that the medicines he was prescribing were actually injuring him. Napoleon watched his chance and when the doctor's back was turned, handed the mixture just prepared for him to an aide who swallowed it and was immediately taken with a violent internal disturbance. The Emperor denounced Antomarchi as an assassin. Dr. MacLaurin,126 who has written interestingly of this case, observes that from the symptoms now known to be present and even in the then state of medical knowledge at that period, the veriest blockhead would have known that the Emperor was seriously ill. Napoleon died shortly after the incident described above of cancer of the stomach. In this case, instead of passing up the autopsy, Antomarchi performed one himself in order to prove that there were no symptoms present to inform him of the presence of cancer and he wrote a book upon the subject. He did not restore our economic system to vitality. He changed it. The system he blundered us into is more like the managed and bureaucratized, stateYDsupported system of Germany before World War I than our own traditional order. Before his regime we lived in a system which depended for its expansion upon private investment in private enterprise. Today we live in a system which depends for its expansion and vitality upon the government. This is a preYDwar European importation YD imported at the moment when it had fallen into complete disintegration in Europe. In America today every fourth person depends for his livelihood upon employment either directly by the government or indirectly in some industry supported by government funds. In this substituted system the government confiscates by taxes or borrowings the savings of all the citizens and invests them in nonYDwealthYDproducing enterprises in order to create work. Behold the picture of American economy today: taxes which confiscate the savings of every citizen, a public debt of 250 billion dollars as against a preYDRoosevelt debt of 19 billions, a government budget of 40 billions instead of four before Roosevelt, inflation doubling the prices and reducing the lowerYDbracket employed workers to a state of pauperism as bad as that of the unemployed in the depression, more people on various kinds of government relief than when we had 11 million unemployed, Americans trapped in the economic disasters and the political quarrels of every nation on earth and a system of permanent militarism closely resembling that we beheld with horror in Europe for decades, bureaucrats swarming over every field of life and the President calling for more power, more priceYDfixing, more regulations and more billions. Does this look like the traditional American scene? Or does it not look rather like the system built by Bismarck in Germany in the last century and imitated by all the lesser Bismarcks in Europe? He changed our political system with two weapons YD blankYDcheck congressional appropriations and blankYDcheck congressional legislation. In 1933, Congress abdicated much of its power when it put billions into his hands by a blanket appropriation to be spent at his sweet will and when it passed general laws, leaving it to him, through great government bureaus of his appointment, to fill in the details of legislation He used it to break down the power of Congress and concentrate it in the hands of the executive. The end of these two betrayals YD the smashing of our economic system and the twisting of our political system YD can only be the Planned Economic State, which, either in the form of Communism or Fascism, dominates the entire continent of Europe today. The capitalist system cannot live under these conditions. The capitalist system cannot survive a Planned Economy. Such an economy can be managed only by a dictatorial government capable of enforcing the directives it issues. The only result of our present system YD unless we reverse the drift YD must be the gradual extension of the fascist sector and the gradual disappearance of the system of free enterprise under a free representative government. how has it advanced the cause of democracy? We liberated Europe from Hitler and turned it over to the mercies of a far more terrible tyrant and actually tried to sell him to the people as a savior of civilization. Behold Europe! Does one refer to the wreckage there as liberation and salvation? Is anyone so naive as to suppose that democracy and free capitalism have been restored in Europe? Fascism has departed from Germany, but a hybrid system of socialism and capitalism in chains has come to England, which is called social democracy but is on its way to Fascism with all the controls without which such a system cannot exist. And in America the price of the war is that fatal deformity of our own economic and political system which Roosevelt effected under the impact of the war necessities. The war rescued him and he seized upon it like a drowning man. By leading his country into the fringes of the war at first and then deep into its center all over the world he was able to do the only things that could save him YD spend incomprehensible billions, whip up spending in the hot flames of war hysteria, put every man and his wife and grandparents into the war mills, while under the pressure of patriotic inhibitions, he could silence criticism and work up the illusion of the war leader. Look up the promises he made, not to our own people, but to the Chinese, to Poland, to Czechoslovakia, to the Baltic peoples in Lithuania and Latvia and Estonia, to the Jews out of one side of his mouth and to the Arabs out of the other side. He broke every promise. The figure of Roosevelt exhibited before the eyes of our people is a fiction. There was no such being as that noble, selfless, hardYDheaded, wise and farseeing combination of philosopher, philanthropist and warrior which has been fabricated out of pure propaganda and which a small collection of dangerous cliques in this country are using to advance their own evil ends. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In June the longYDawaited invasion of the continent was launched. With this we will not concern ourselves. The other subject that occupied Roosevelt's mind was his plan to have himself renominated for a fourth time. The President had lost his head, at least a little. Congress was slipping away from him. A growing section of his party, particularly in the Senate, was moving out of that collection of incongruous elements called the Third New Deal. It was crawling with Reds and their gullible allies who got themselves into key positions in all the bureaus and were talking with great assurance about what they were going to do with America and the world. The Communists had all become antiYDfascists and everybody who was against the Communists was, therefore, a fascist. A group of organizations financed by undisclosed benefactors was riding roughshod through the country smearing everybody who questioned the grandiose plans of the Great Leader for remaking America and the world. Nobody was getting a hotter dose of this smearing than the American Congress. The radio and the frightened press and magazines kept up a barrage against the members of the President's own party in both houses. It was a Democratic bill and the blast that exploded in his face brought him up with a jerk. In the upper house, Senator Barkley, Democratic leader, Roosevelt's own representative there, rose to upbraid him. He said the message was "a calculated and deliberate assault upon the legislative integrity of every member of Congress." He cried: "I do not propose to take it lying down," as Democratic and Republican senators united in a roar of applause. He ended his philippic with an announcement that made headlines in every paper in the country. He declared that after seven years of carrying the New Deal banner for the President, he now resigned his post as Democratic majority leader and he called on every member of the Congress to preserve its selfYDrespect and override the veto. The Senate overrode it 72 to 14 and the House 299 to 95. It brought Roosevelt tumbling off his high horse. He sent Steve Early running to Barkley's home that very night to beg him not to quit. Barkley yielded. McIntire was a naval doctor in 1932 and was recommended to Roosevelt as White House physician by Admiral Grayson. McIntire was an eye, ear and nose specialist. He got along famously with Roosevelt, was elevated by him to the grade of admiral and made head of the Naval Hospital Service. Thus once again the problem of disease entangled itself in the making of history. It had happened after the First World War when the President was stricken by a brain hemorrhage that paralyzed his body and impaired his mind and, worse than this, disturbed his normal mental balance. What might have been the course of history had Woodrow Wilson's mental and physical powers survived must be a matter of speculation. We have seen how the Communist party had successfully penetrated the unions organized by the Congress of Industrial Organizations YD the CIO YD and how John L. Lewis and David Dubinsky had got out of it for this reason, leaving Sidney Hillman in complete control. We have also seen how the war brought Hillman to the top in White House circles when he and William Knudsen became the directors of the economic war effort. Knudsen departed in good time, but Hillman remained close to the White House. . By 1943, Earl Browder, Communist leader, had about completed the discovery that there was no hope for a proletarian revolution in America. The party got nowhere preaching Communism. The people just wouldn't listen. But it learned that it could getyYYY !"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmno pqrstuvwxyz{}yYYY~Y~ very far by using a different technique. After all, Communist revolutionaries know that before they can introduce Communism they must destroy the political and economic system of the country in which they conspire. t fascism YD the Planned Capitalist Economy YD is merely a decadent phase of capitalism. For this reason the Communist party had been promoting with great success RedYDfront organizations and inducing the most important people, like Mrs. Roosevelt, Henry Wallace and scores of prominent leaders in education and public life, to work with them. As 1944 opened, Browder decided to liquidate the Communist party. It would go out of politics. It would become a mere educational association. This was done, and Browder and Sidney Hillman teamed up to capture the American Labor Party. This had been formed originally in New ork City to provide a political vehicle for Fiorello LaGuardia in his local politics. It had all sorts of people in it. There were a lot of Reds, a lot of socialists and a lot of parlor and campus pinks of all sorts, plus a lot of social reformers and welfare reformers. It had corralled a lot of votes YD enough to swing an election in New ork State YD by giving or withholding its vote from the Democrats. It supported Lehman in 1940 and elected him on the Democratic ticket. It refused to endorse the Democratic candidate, Bennett, for governor in 1942 and the Democratic vote, without it, was insufficient and thus Dewey became governor. Now Browder and Hillman joined forces and decided to take over the American Labor Party. They met resistance from the mixed collection of pinks who had control, but in a bitter battle Browder and Hillman took it over. Actually Browder dominated this team because it was Communist votes that did the trick. In addition to this, Hillman had organized in 1943 a new political labor group called the CIO Political Action Committee. The CIO had violated the law by supporting candidates in various primary elections and to get around this Hillman formed this Political Action Committee and pressure was put on members of CIO unions to compel them to join. This organization was now being used as a club in the Democratic party to bludgeon Democratic congressmen and officials generally to play ball with Hillman, Wallace and their crowd, while Hillman and Browder did business as a team in New ork State in the newly reYDformed Communist American Labor Party. The Democratic party could win if it could carry the Southern states and in addition New ork, Massachusetts, Illinois, Michigan and New Jersey. These states could be carried with the support of Sidney Hillman's Political Action Committee and Browder's American Labor Party, but not without them and Roosevelt was the only possible candidate who could get this support. The Democrats had to nominate Roosevelt or lose the election. There were some Democrats who thought it was better to lose the election, but not enough of them. Accordingly when the convention assembled in Chicago on July 19, Sidney Hillman was there, not as a delegate YD he was not even a member of the party YD but to see that the subservient Democrats behaved to his satisfaction and to the satisfaction of his friend and partner, Browder. To this pass had Roosevelt's personal political ambitions brought the Democratic party of Jefferson, Cleveland and Wilson. Hillman had a headquarters there. He wasn't worried about Roosevelt's nomination. That was settled. He wasn't worried about the platform. That was written to his satisfaction before the convention assembled by Sam Rosenman. He had one more demand. He wanted Henry Wallace nominated again for Vice President. Harry Hopkins and Henry Wallace and, of course, Sidney Hillman knew. They knew that Roosevelt was doomed and that if they could name Henry Wallace Vice President this time, the government would be in their hands. But Chicago had a visitor about whom nothing was known until later. On the evening of July 14, Roosevelt left Washington with great secrecy on a special train. It reached Chicago on Saturday the 15th. That same day, Robert E. Hannegan, Democratic national chairman, got to Chicago. Reporters awaited him at the station. But he slipped out through a rear door of his train and into Mayor Kelly's policeYDescorted automobile and vanished. Reporters frantically hunted him all over town. He remained out of sight until the next day. But in the meantime he had made a visit to Roosevelt's train, secretly parked on a remote railroad siding. There poor Wallace's goose was cooked. Hannegan, too, got a letter. It said the President would be happy to have either Harry Truman or William Douglas as his running mate. And as Hannegan was leaving the train, Roosevelt warned him "to clear everything with Sidney." The Presidential approval of Truman was no good until Sidney O.K.'d it Truman was nominated with 1100 votes to only 66 for Wallace. But not until Sidney Hillman had approved the change. His first speech was not made until September 24 to a dinner given by the International Teamsters' Union dominated by Daniel Tobin YD an AFL union. Its purpose was to put some emphasis on the support of the AFL in view of the bitter feeling among AFL leaders because of the dominant role Sidney Hillman's CIO was playing in Roosevelt's councils and particularly in its favored position before Roosevelt's Labor Board ~~~~~~~~~ Secret Service Page- The first occurred on February 1, 1933, in Miami, Florida Giuseppe Zangara fired five shots a President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt, who was making an impromptu speech while sitting in an open car that had stopped momentarily. Although none of the shots hit President Roosevelt, Zangara mortally wounded Anton Cermak, the Mayor of Chicago, and hit four other people, including a Secret Service agent. On February 15, 1933, Zangara attended a speech given by Roosevelt at Bayfront Park in Miami, Florida. When Roosevelt had finished his talk and was preparing to leave, Zangara pulled out a pistol and opened fire. A bystander deflected the assassin's aim by pushing his arm into the air. Zangara wounded five people who had been near the president-elect, two of them seriously. Most critically injured was Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak, who was struck by the bullet in the chest which then lodged in his spine. Zangara was immediately charged with four counts of attempted murder. He was not charged initially with the wounding of Cermak, as authorities waited to see if the mayor's wounds would prove fatal. The State charged Zangara for attempting to murder Franklin Roosevelt, Russell Caldwell, Margaret Kruise, and William Sinnott. Zangara was found guilty on each count and sentenced to four consecutive twenty year terms. On March 6, Mayor Cermak died from complications stemming from the shooting. The same day Zangara was indicted by a grand jury and charged with first degree murder in the death of Cermak. His trial began on March 9 and ended on March 11 with a guilty verdict and a death sentence. The prisoner was transported to the Florida State Prison at Raiford, where he was executed on March 20, 1933. The parade car moved slowly down the street as President-elect Roosevelt and Mayor Cermak smiled and waved. The car stopped and President-elect Roosevelt gave a speech while sitting on the back of the car. A man named Guiseppe Zangara pushed through the crowd. He fired five shots at the President-elect. The bullets hit four people and Mayor Cermak. The mayor fell out of the car and called out "The President, get him away!" But Roosevelt ordered his car to stop and that Mayor Cermak be put in with him. President-elect Roosevelt held Mayor Cermak all the way to the hospital. Mayor Anton J. Cermak died three weeks later, on March 8, 1933. His body was taken back to Chicago and buried in the Bohemian National Cemetery. Guiseppe Zangara was executed in the electric chair on March 21, 1933. That was only 13 days after Mayor Cermak died. It was not always thus. Consider the case of Guiseppe Zangara, who was executed in 1933 for the attempted assassination of President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt in which Chicago Mayor Anton J. Cermak was fatally shot. Zangara pleaded guilty in state court on March 10, was sentenced to death, and was executed on March 20 -- an interval of 10 days! Kenneth J. Davis, FDR: The New ork ears 1928-1933 (Random House, 1985) at 427-435. After Roosevelt had delivered a speech in Florida on February 14, 1938, Guiseppe Zangara, an unemployed bricklayer, fired six sbots from a handgun at Roosevelt from twelve yards away. The president elect, who was sitting in an open car, was uninjured but five other people were shot, including Chicago mayor Anton Cernak, who was killed. Zangara, who had a pathological hatred for rich and powerful figures, was found guilty of murder and electrocuted.February 15, 1933, Guiseppe Zangara rose early in Miami, Florida to assassinate Franklin Delano Roosevelt, president-elect. In the past weeks, FDR's popularity had increased. That warm, reassuring voice, that ready grin and tilted cigarette holder, had reached out to touch millions of folks all over America. Zangara did not share these emotions. Pushing his way through the crowd, Zangara shouted out "There are too many people starving to death!" He fired shot after shot at FDR, but a woman's quick move knocked the gun upward. The bullets hit several bystanders and mortally wounded Mayor Cermak of Miami.

On March 21, 1933, Zangara marched into the execution chamber shouting against the "capitalists" and expressing disappointment that no news camera-men were permitted to witness his execution. "Goodbye, adios to the world," were his last words. 3 FDR's Looking Forward published FDR is shot at in assassination attempt in Miami, Florida, by Guiseppe Zangara, 15 February Giuseppe Zangara was sentenced to serve 80 years for shooting at President elect Franklin Roosevelt in 1933. Though Roosevelt was missed, five bystanders, including Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak, were struck. Three weeks after the attack, Cermak died of complications. Zangara's sentence was then changed to death sentence. Thirty-three days after the attack, Zangara was strapped into the electric chair at Florida's Raiford Prison. He glared at his executioners and declared, "Goodbye, adios to all the world." His unclaimed body was buried in an unmarked prison grave. In 1989, as part of an effort by court officials to recover missing court files of historical significance, he filed an FOIA request with the U.S. Secret Service seeking to get back court files concerning assassin Giuseppe Zangara. Zangara, a 32-year-old bricklayer, fired four shots at President-elect Franklin Roosevelt's motorcade in 1933 in Miami. Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak was killed and four people were wounded. Roosevelt escaped unharmed. Zangara was found guilty of murder and was executed about a month later. Winslow said a Miami court order showed that a Secret Service agent had checked out Zangara's death warrant and some other court documents in 1954 but never had returned them. Unfortunately, he said, the FOIA request failed to turn up the missing documents. GIUSEPPE ZANGARA pleaded guilty and was executed March 20, 1933 for the March 7, 1933 death of Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak, who was fatally wounded in an attempt on the life of President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt in Miami on Feb. 15, 1933. LE MONDE DIPLOMATIQUE - May 1998 by DOMINIQUE VIDAL National and/or social liberation movements worldwide are equally affected. The ideology and power bloc which used to be their mainstay, whether they liked it or not, has disappeared. The various movements and causes have dropped out of the international spotlight and are no longer up for grabs in the East West confrontation. In fact, amid general indifference, they have largely forfeited their means of action and political leverage. With its main enemy out of the way, along with the economic, ideological and military threat it represented, the West, led by the United States, has now become the master of the world. A damaging result of this new world order has been the beginning of the process of globalisation. It is no paradox to say it probably began on 9 November 1989 with the fall of the Berlin Wall, or in August 1991 when Mikhail Gorbachev rallied to the American crusade in the Gulf, or indeed on 8 December 1991, the date of the dissolution of the Soviet Union For decades, every socialist project was contrasted with its only existing embodiment: so-called "real" socialism. And, among revolutionary forces themselves, the process of devising a plausible radical alternative was tragically limited by the Soviet horizon. So, despite the consequences described at the beginning, the fall of communism removes a severe handicap. Far from presaging the end of history and the irrelevance of radical thought, it actually gives a whole new lease of life to ideas of utopia. Future generations will have the freedom to conceive a different kind of society without having to define themselves in terms of a communist model. Of course, there is no going back to a clean slate. However, with the passing of time, it should be possible to learn lessons from the failure of communism and - in other forms and for other reasons - social-democratic reformism. The human imagination must find a new way of thinking based on what men and women need, rather than theoretical or dogmatic concepts to be "implemented". The questions we must ask ourselves may have a familiar ring. How are democracy, pluralism, rights and freedoms to be revitalised, but sheltered from totalitarian intent? How is equality of opportunity and social justice to be guaranteed and the security to which people are entitled assured, without a general "dumbing down" and stifling of initiative? How can the fulfilment of basic social needs be made into a priority for the economy without affecting its development? How can the necessary resources be found for a new balance between work, training, family and community life, and leisure activities when people's time is at last freed up? How can the ground be laid for a distribution of wealth which, worldwide, respects the right of all peoples to development? How can the role of the state be made to serve all these objectives while at the same time the independence of each citizen and each local community is assured? In short, how is the relationship between individuals and society to be reinvented? To these and many other questions, there are no longer any ready-made answers. However, the way is now open and the ground ready to be cleared. At last. Translated by Sally Blaxland IGNACIO RAMONET Last January, the corridors of a number of European airports were adorned with a poster in the style of the Chinese cultural revolution. It showed a row of demonstrators at the head of a march, their faces shining, their colourful banners blowing in the wind. The slogan they were chanting was "Capitalists of the world, unite!" For Forbes, America's magazine for millionaires, this was more than a jibe at the 150th anniversary of the publication of Marx and Engels' Communist Manifesto. It was a way of making two things clear. Apparently without fear of contradiction, as the posters were not torn down or defaced. The first is that nobody is afraid of communism any longer. The second is that capitalism has gone over to the attack. capitalism's new-found arrogance. The triumphal tone became apparent after the fall of the Berlin Wall, when the Soviet Union collapsed in a welter of political obtuseness reflecting the emptiness of shattered illusions. The sudden revelation of the full consequences of decades of state control in the countries of the former Eastern bloc produced a sort of mental upheaval. The tragic absurdity of a system lacking basic freedoms and a market economy was starkly exposed, as were all the injustices that had followed in its wake. Socialist thinking seemed to subside, along with the belief in progress and a future subject to rational planning. The sole ideological basis of the traditional right had been its anti communism. The collapse of the Soviet system and the implosion of socialism cut the ground from under its feet. Neoliberalism, which had been flagging since the beginning of the century, was left alone in the field, the sole victor of the East-West confrontation. With its main rivals removed, it has re-emerged on all sides, stronger than ever. Its supporters dream of imposing their vision - a neoliberal utopia admitting of no alternative - on the whole world. This campaign of conquest goes by the name of globalisation. It is the outcome of the increasing interdependence of all countries, brought about by the lifting of all controls on the movement of capital, the removal of customs barriers and administrative restrictions, and the intensification of international commerce and free trade; all this under the auspices of the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development, and the World Trade Organisation. The financial economy has become entirely divorced from the real economy. The sum total of daily financial transactions throughout the world is about $1,500 billion, but a mere 1 % involves the creation of new wealth. Even in the most developed countries, the dramatic advance of neoliberalism has significantly reduced the role of parliaments and other public players. At the same time, the growth of new information technologies is proceeding without any reference to the idea of social progress. The enormous strides in molecular biology since the early 1960s, coupled with the immense calculating power provided by computer science, have shattered the stability of the technological matrix which public authorities are finding it harder and harder to control. Politicians can no longer assess the risks involved in the acceleration of science and technology (1). Here too, they are increasingly dependent on unelected experts, who direct the government decision-making process behind the scenes. The information revolution has torn our society apart. It has overturned the established pattern of trade, opening the way for the expansion of the global and information economy. Not all the countries of the world have yet been forced into one unit. But the global economy is imposing a single economic model by networking the entire planet. In this new system of liberal social relations, humankind has been reduced to a collection of isolated individuals stranded in a universe of hypertechnology. These brutal changes are causing us to lose our bearings; there is ever-growing uncertainty, the world appears unintelligible and history seems to defy rational interpretation. The crisis we are experiencing is what Gramsci had in mind when he spoke of the old order dying while the new hesitates to be born. We are reminded of Tocqueville's phrase: "When the past no longer illuminates the future, the spirit walks in darkness." And yet, many people are trying to inject some measure of humanity into the relentless machinery of neoliberalism. They feel the need for responsible involvement and collective action. In an age when power has become abstract, invisible, distant and impersonal, they want to confront those responsible face to face, to direct their anger, fears and frustration at clearly identified adversaries of flesh and blood. They would still be prepared to believe that politics has an answer to everything, even though politicians find it increasingly difficult to propose straightforward solutions to the complex problems of society. And they all feel the need to erect a barrier against the tidal wave of neoliberalism in the form of a coherent ideology that can be opposed to the currently dominant model. To formulate that ideology is no easy matter. There is practically nothing left to build on. Previous utopias based on the idea of progress have all too often sunk into authoritarian rule and oppression. Once again, there is a need for dreamers who can think and thinkers who can dream. The answer will not be a neatly packaged, custom-built project. It will be a way of looking at things, of analysing society, leading gradually to the development of a new ideology that will break the stranglehold of anarcho-liberalism. *** sog *** Neoliberal ideology is busily building a society of selfishness based on fragmentation. To preserve the future, we have to strengthen the collective dimension (3). And collective action is now as much a matter of single-issue campaigns as of parties and unions. *** AoD *** France has seen a proliferation of campaigning groups in recent years. The issues range from food for the homeless (les Restos du Coeur) and the fight against AIDS (Act Up), to unemployment (Action contre le ChYmage - AC!) and housing rights (Droit au Logement - DAL). There has also been considerable growth in local branches of large NGOs like Greenpeace, Amnesty International, MYdecins du Monde and Transparency. Political parties have two particular attributes which detract from their credibility. First, they are all-embracing, claiming to be able to solve all society's problems. Second, they are geographically restricted, i.e. they can act only within the frontiers of a single country. Campaigning groups have exactly the opposite properties. On the one hand they are thematic, i.e. concerned with single issues such as unemployment, housing and the environment. On the other, they are international, i.e. their field of action is the whole planet (4). For many years the supporters of these two different approaches have been at odds with each other, but recently there have been signs of convergence. It is vital that they join forces. This is one of the key problems of political renewal. Campaigning groups are grass-roots organisations, testifying to the richness of social initiative. {John Doe Society - sog} It is therefore essential to build strong links between campaigning organisations and political parties. Campaigning organisations have preserved the belief in the possibility of changing the world, a belief based on a radical conception of democracy. They are the probable source of a renewal of political activity in Europe. . "Today's utopia is tomorrow's reality", as Victor Hugo said. Lamartine agreed that utopias are simply "realities whose time is not yet ripe." It is the committed activists of campaigning organisations who are likely to prove them right. They will resurface tomorrow under other banners. They will be involved in struggles to restore the United Nations' role as the central instrument of international law, to turn it into an organisation that can take real decisions, act decisively and impose lasting peace; to establish international tribunals that can judge crimes against humanity, democracy and the common good; to prevent manipulation of the masses and to end discrimination against women. They will be present in campaigns to secure new legislation on protection of the environment and to establish the principle of sustainable development. In the fight to ban tax havens and promote an economic system based on solidarity. And in many others. Translated by Barry Smerin Return of the Rebels The working classes have not given up the fight despite both overt and covert repression, a weakened and divided trade union movement and media indifference or outright hostility. by CHRISTIAN DE BRIE Alongside the trade union movement, an astonishing wealth and diversity of associations is springing up to challenge the new world order. From local community groups to international non-governmental organisations - there are several hundred thousand of them in all - mobilising hundreds of millions of activists. As the Peoples' Global Action against "Free" Trade and the World Trade Organisation, which met in Geneva in February 1998, stated in their manifesto, direct action against globalisation is the most important thing. "Only a global alliance of peoples' movements, respecting autonomy and facilitating action-oriented resistance, can defeat this ... monster. ... We assert our will to struggle ... against all forms of oppression" (3). Translated by Sally Blaxland THERE IS ANOTHER, BETTER WORLD The hazards of internationalism Billions of men and women, rendered powerless by the fragmentation of the social struggle, are pinning their hopes on a new universalism that does not leave the delicate fabric of the world entirely in the hands of the money men. by ALAIN GRESH We live in extraordinary times. Globalisation is carrying all before it, our means of communication allow us contact in real time with any place you care to name, more people than ever before are travelling the world, yet paradoxically the media space devoted to "foreign affairs" is shrinking to vanishing point. All the research bears this out. Be it in Paris, Washington (1), London or Madrid, television and press coverage of international problems has been substantially reduced. However, there is an exception to every rule and we are informed instantly of any drop in the Nikkei index in Tokyo, invited to rejoice at the new heights reached by the Dow Jones on Wall Street or worry about exchange rate fluctuations in Seoul. Stock exchange news has become the only social glue binding the global village together. Alain Badiou observes in a stimulating reflection on universalism (3), this "process of fragmentation into separate and isolated identities" is only another aspect of a "world that has finally been given a configuration, as a market, a world market. Nothing", he continues, "lends itself more to the invention of new patterns for a uniform monetary system than a community and its territory or territories. What endless opportunities for trade and investment" these innumerable new communities offer as they arise. The many separate states that have replaced ugoslavia or the Soviet Union offered no resistance to the juggernaut of the free market economy. As Alain Badiou observes, "at a time of general movement and the dream of instant cultural exchange, more and more laws and regulations are being introduced everywhere to curtail people's freedom of movement ... Free movement for things that can be counted, by all means, especially for capital, the very essence of such things. But free movement for things that cannot be counted, for the infinite value represented by an individual human life, never! As regards the real life of people and what happens to them", there is - and we must never forget it - "a detestable complicity between the globalised logic of capital and the French mania to preserve their identity". the nation-state - a recent and transitory historical phenomenon (7) - is clearly not the symbolic ideal construct some sentimental elements of the left like to imagine. It has been a key factor in colonial wars, opposition to the labour movement, enforcing moral order, discrimination against women, the marginalisation of minorities, and so on and so on. And the current drift into authoritarian attitudes vis-Y-vis "dangerous elements" and immigrants is unacceptable, even in the name of a self-styled "republican order". How are we to find new forms of rebellion, of dissidence, to meet the new global challenges? With modern means of communication, especially the Internet, it is easy to establish worldwide networks, mobilise, act. But to act locally and on a world scale, to "think global", it is necessary to rediscover universalism, a universalism that is not confined to the values of Western White men, who fall into a trance at the sight of a young girl in a veil and whose real aim in life, to quote Alain Badiou, is "the uniform imposition of what they imagine to be modern". Humanitarian action or laissez-faire? The stagnation of the Soviet system and the collapse of the communist utopia brought discredit on a certain version of internationalism. Even the humanitarianism, which rallied millions of men and women to the cause of emergency aid in time of war and natural disaster, rapidly ran out of steam. No-one was quicker than the organisers of M_dicins sans fronti_res, the organisation that exemplifies that approach, to condemn the political authorities' use of "humanitarian" aid to justify a laissez faire attitude towards the crimes in Bosnia or the genocide in Rwanda. And yet, in the face of fundamentalism, hardening attitudes on identity, or confrontations between increasingly insulated ethnic groups (which do not prevent their foot-soldiers from drinking Coca Cola, their intellectuals from using Microsoft software, and their leaders from calling on the resources of international capital), the peoples of the world have got to find new ways of "living together" and "fighting together". They have nothing to lose from embracing this ideal and, to quote Marx and Engels, "they have a world to win". Translated by Barbara Wilson The US is, in fact, operated as a fascist state by bureaucrats. ~ Bill Payne ~ John Hancock Security to the persons and properties of the governed is so obviously the design and end of civil government, that to attempt a logical proof of it would be like burning tapers at noonday, to assist the sun in enlightening the world; and it cannot be either virtuous or honorable to attempt to support a government of which this is not the great and principal basis; and it is to the last degree vicious and infamous to attempt to support a government which manifestly tends to render the persons and properties of the governed insecure. Some boast of being friends to government; I am a friend to righteous government, to a government founded upon the principles of reason and justice; but I glory in publicly avowing my eternal enmity to tyranny. They have declared that they have ever had, and of right ought ever to have, full power to make laws of sufficient validity to bind the Colonies in all cases whatever. They have exercised this pretended right by imposing a tax upon us without our consent; and lest we should show some reluctance at parting with our property, her fleets and armies are sent to enforce their mad pretensions. it was easy to foresee the consequences which so naturally followed upon sending troops into America to enforce obedience to acts of the British Parliament, which neither God nor man ever empowered them to make. It was reasonable to expect that troops, who knew the errand they were sent upon, would treat the people whom they were to subjugate, with a cruelty and haughtiness which too often buries the honorable character of a soldier in the disgraceful name of an unfeeling ruffian. they thought it not enough to violate our civil rights, they endeavored to deprive us of the enjoyment of our religious privileges, to vitiate our morals, and thereby render us deserving of destruction. But what, my countrymen, withheld the ready arm of vengeance from executing instant justice on the vile assassins? Perhaps you feared promiscuous carnage might ensue, and that the innocent might share the fate of those who had performed the infernal deed. But were not all guilty? Were you not too tender of the lives of those who came to fix a yoke on your necks?

In the Thule Society, the 'black sun' played a prominent role as a 'sacred' symbol of the Aryans.

The bullets hit several bystanders and mortally wounded Mayor Cermak of Miami. {Cermak was standing *beside* FDR-gun knocked upward would not change hit targets - sog} In assassination cases, there has always existed the dilemma of establishing the murderer's sanity. Authorities are uncomfortable to admit that sane people kill government leaders. At the same time, many feel that if the assassin is deemed insane, he will escape "proper" punishment. It is much easier to lock upon the assassin as a steely-eyed, cold blooded killer, who is a threat to society...and only half crazy. Nineteen days after Fromme's failed attempt, Sara Jane Moore fired a shot at President Ford, but missed. Prior to the attack, she wrote the following poem: "Hold-Hold, still my hand. Steady my eye, chill my heart, And let my gun sing for the people. Scream their anger, cleanse with their hate, And kill this monster." While most assassins have deep, emotional problems, few are truly insane, unable to distinguish between right and wrong. Defendants are presumed to be sane and responsible for their crimes until the contrary can be proven. In order to establish insanity, it must be proved that, at the time of the offense, the defendant was laboring under such a defect or disease of the mind so as not to know the nature and quality of the act or did not know that it was wrong. This is referred to as the McNaughton Rule, and it is based on an 1843 assassination case. John Schrank was convicted of shooting former-President Theodore Roosevelt in 1912. Roosevelt recovered from the wound and carried Schrank's bullet in his chest for the rest of his life John W. Hinckley Jr. was acquitted by reason of insanity for shooting President Ronald Reagan in 1981. He has been held in St. Elizabeth's Hospital since his trial and has petitioned the courts to win his release. {Cermak-Brady - sog} In 1935, Dr. Carl Weiss shot and killed Senator Huey Long outside the governor's office of the Louisiana State Capitol Building in Baton Rouge. Long's bodyguards opened fire on Weiss, killing him instantly. He suffered more than 50 bullet wounds. There is evidence that suggests Long was accidentally shot and killed by one of his own guards.ods are those with high rates of female-headed families, welfare dependency and labor force and school dropouts. In 1990, in the typical "bad behavior" white underclass tract, 55 percent of the men did not participate in the work force and 42 percent of the residents had dropped out of school; the corresponding figures for black tracts were 62 percent and 36 percent... They are easy for politicians to manipulate and are no threat to do anything very imaginative or even act in concert in defense of their own interests without outside leadership. They also constitute a talking point. Politicians can talk about taking steps to correct the problem and improve conditions for these "victims of society." Humans are social beings, they require an emotional and spiritual bond to their society, with that society viewed as a collective entity. Intellectuals spend their lives constructing and tinkering with their identities. the educational system of the United States. It is clearly inadequate, since ordinary people in an advanced industrial society should be able to handle abstract reasoning It is not that the system has failed at what it set out to do. One cannot be said to have failed at something one has never attempted. It is important to keep ordinary people in their place If ordinary people were able to reason effectively and draw conclusions about matters outside of their day to day experience, then they might start asking questions that politicians would have difficulty answering. t the belief in lack of ability tends to bring about that lack of ability. What one must keep in mind in regard to this stereotype is that it constitutes an assertion as to fact. In other words, it is not a moral principle, it is not a value judgement, and it is not, in itself, an expression of prejudice. If one were to assert it, knowing and believing that it was false, then it would be an expression of prejudice. One can only be truly equal if one accepts the same burdens and responsibilities as everyone else. . One, of course, needs to throw in the sexual stereotypes also, since they played a similar role in building identity. The main problem is to understand the function of ethnic identity in a society. sense of duty and obligation. One cannot feel such a sense of duty without a clear understanding of one's place in the world. That is what identity is all about. The collective identity, which the people of Oaxaca have, is what makes each individual accountable to society. Peer pressure, as one sees in operation in the case of Mr. Santiago, is the means by which a fully functional society influences and modifies the behavior of its members. In the United States, such outpourings of ethnic sentiment on the part of the dominant culture are discouraged There is to be no expression of ethnic identity not approved by the intellectual establishment. The government must seek to suppress any alternative means of social control. All legitimate power must be held by the government, even to the point of making every member of society a criminal. *** {TCM tag-line - sog} *** e sum total of the effort. Attacks on certain forms of religious expression are part of it also, but it is the "Civil Rights Movement" that provides an excuse for government to intrude into all kinds of interpersonal relationships. The more the government can do this, the more people are alienated from society. People are no longer accountable to one another but to a vast impersonal bureaucracy. One must recall that this is the basic premise of Totalitarian social organization. The purpose of this effort is to crush all opposition to the agenda of the ruling oligarchy. The democratic forms are meaningless in the absence of a willingness on the part of the population in general to assume collective responsibility for the maintenance of social order. All power ultimately lies in the hands of those who perform that function. The people in general can only do this by means of imposing their collective identity in the ways the author has described. If one can destroy the emotional and spiritual bonds that provide the sort of collective identity which U.S. society once had, then one has only millions of sheep and a few wolves. . From a recent book on the human brain one has: The sexes are different because their brains are different. The brain, the chief administrative and emotional organ of life, is differently constructed in men and in women; it processes information in a different way, which results in different perceptions, priorities and behavior. human behavior in general is much more biologically driven than was believed previously. What this means, among other things, is that human behavior cannot be modified beyond certain limits. It is not possible, for instance, to fundamentally change the nature of the male/female relationship The problem in this Detroit neighborhood is not that welfare benefits are too low. After all, these people are very wealthy compared to Mr. Santiago. What they have not received from society is a strong sense of ethnic identity. As a result, they have rejected society and have set out to make their own. One sees them assuming the responsibility for the maintenance of social order but in an antisocial context. The gang symbols and mode of dress are a typical male effort to impose their identity on the environment, just as Mr. Santiago was doing in placing flowers at the statue of the patron saint. In the matter of the gang symbols, however, one sees a pattern of social disintegration. In the case of Americans, great efforts are made in the form of entertainment, bizarre religious activities (The Branch Davidians, for example), appeals to great collective efforts (Save the Whale), self improvement (lose weight), and many other artificial undertakings to give life meaning and purpose. The problem with American society is precisely this artificiality. If one rejects ethnic identity and the social cohesion that it provides, then one must resort to coercion. Unfortunately, there is an end to that twisted path. In order to survive, a society must conform itself to the psychological needs of the average person and not attempt to coerce people into conforming to some false ideology. the government is a big part of the cause of the problem in that it has set out to undermine identity 1927 Despite international protest and allegations of perjury, evidence tampering, and judicial prejudice, Anarchists Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti are executed for robbery and murder. 1966 Eagle Scout and ex-Marine Charles Whitman opens fire from atop the 27-story tower at the University of Texas at Austin.

In the aftermath of World War I, the German Nazis learned that anti communism could be used to achieve strategic leverage over Germany's prospective enemies such as Great Britain and the United States. The Third Reich sought to escape the full consequences of military defeat in World War II by playing the anti-Communist card again. Although a few of the more obvious and obnoxious elements of Nazism were removed, Nazis were returned to power at virtually every level and in almost every capacity in the Federal Republic of Germany.

He also stated, "On the basis of present evidence, no insurance company in America would pay a claim on Adolph Hitler."

Another article in November, 1949, says "The Nazis went underground, May 16, 1943!" and details a meeting at the residence of Krupp von Bohlen-Halbach, the head of I.G.

The movement called for the killing or sterilization of people whose HEREDIT made them a public burden. A few months later, Hitler took over Germany and the Rockefeller-Rudin apparatus became a section of the Nazi state. The regime appointed Rudin head of the Racial Hygiene Society. Rudin and his staff, as part of the Task Force of Heredity Experts chaired by SS chief Heinrich Himmler, drew up the sterilization law. Described as an American Model law, it was adopted in July 1933 and proudly printed in the September 1933 Eugenical News [USA] with Hitler's signature. The Rockefeller group drew up other race laws, also based on existing Virginia statutes. The 'T4'' unit of the Hitler Chancery, based on psychiatrists led by Rudin and his staff, cooperated in creating propaganda films to sell mercy killing [euthanasia] to German citizens. The public reacted antagonistically: Hitler had to withdraw a tear-jerker right-to-die film from the movie theaters. The proper groundwork had not yet been laid. Under the Nazis, the German chemical company I.G. FARBEN and Rockefeller's STANDARD [EXXON] OIL of New Jersey were effectively a SINGLE FIRM, merged in hundreds of cartel arrangements. I.G. FARBEN was led up until 1937 by the Warburg family, Rockefeller's partner in banking and in the design of Nazi German eugenics. Following the German invasion of Poland in 1939, Standard Oil pledged to keep the merger with I.G. Farben going even if the U.S. entered the war. This was exposed in 1942 by Sen. Harry Truman's investigating committee, and President Roosevelt took hundreds of legal measures during the war to stop the Standard - I.G. Farben cartel from supplying the enemy war machine. In 1940-41, I.G. Farben built a gigantic factory at Auschwitz in Poland, DR. MENGELE... In 1943, Otmar Verschuer's assistant Josef Mengele was made medical commandant of Auschwitz.

(Remember, the Rockefellers were originally German immigrants to America. - Branton) In 1936, Rockefeller's Dr. Franz Kallmann interrupted his study of hereditary degeneracy and emigrated to America because he was half Jewish. Kallmann went to New ork and established the Medical Genetics Department of the New ork State Psychiatric Institute. The SCOTTISH RITE of Freemasonry published Kallman's study of over 1,000 cases of schizophrenia, which tried to prove its hereditary basis. In the book, Kallmann thanked his long-time boss and mentor Rudin. Kallmann's book, published in 1938 in the USA and Nazi Germany, was used by the T4 unit as a rationalization to begin in 1939 the murder of mental patients and various "defectives" {ForeRunner to genetic/cloning/'grafting' technology - sog} {Hitler was *scapegoat* for excesses of SOP - sog}

In the 1950s, the Rockefellers reorganized the U.S. eugenics movement in their own family offices, with spinoff population-control AND abortion groups The Eugenics Society changed its name to the "Society for the Study of Social Biology", its current name. With support from the Rockefellers, the Eugenics Society [England] set up a sub-committee called the INTERNATIONAL PLANNED PARENTHOOD FEDERATION, which for 12 years had no other address than the Eugenics Society. (Note: Margaret Sanger plays a central role in this PLANNED PARENTHOOD network. In her book 'PIVOT OF CIVILIZATION', in reference to free MATERNIT care for the poor, Sanger states: "Instead of DECREASING and aiming to ELIMINATE THE STOCKS that are most detrimental to the future of the race and the world it tends to render them to a menacing degree dominant.") {PILOT Of Civilization(?) - sog} Rockefellers, who played a major role in grooming the agents of the Communist-Socialist revolution in Russia AND the agents of the National Socialist revolution in Germany.

Long ago and far away, Adolf Hitler was talking to Hermann Rauschning and said, "The people about us are unaware of what is really happening to them: They gaze fascinated at one or two familiar superficialities, such as possession and income and rank and other outworn conceptions. As long as these are kept intact, they are quite satisfied. But in the meantime they have entered a new relation: a powerful social force has caught them up. They themselves are changed. What are ownership and income to that? Why need we trouble to socialize banks and factories? We socialize human beings." I see someone has made a TV movie of "Brave New World." Are we to view it as a work of fiction, or a Scribean foreshadowing of what looms in the very near future? Geoff Metcalf "War is a matter of vital importance for the state; it is the province of life and death, the road which leads to survival or elimination. It is essential to study it in depth". Sun Tzu, "The Art of War" http://www.monde-diplomatique.fr/md/en/1997/08-09/marcos.html The fourth world war has begun In Chiapas, the Zapatista National Liberation Army issued no directives about the elections, choosing instead to withdraw to the sheltering greenery of the Lacandona Forest. >From this sanctuary the head of the ZNLA, Sub-Commandant Marcos, sent us this original and geostrategic analysis of the new world picture. by Sub-Commandant Marcos * Zapatista National Liberation Army, Chiapas, Mexico The defeat of the "evil empire" has opened up new markets, and the struggle over them is leading to a new world war - the fourth. Unlike the third world war, in which the conflict between capitalism and socialism took place over a variety of terrains and with varying degrees of intensity, the fourth world war is being conducted between major financial centres in theatres of war that are global in scale and with a level of intensity that is fierce and constant. The third world war showed the benefits of "total war" for its victor, which was capitalism. In the post-cold war period we see the emergence of a new planetary scenario in which the principal conflictual elements are the growing importance of no-man's-lands (arising out of the collapse of the Eastern bloc countries), the expansion of a number of major powers (the United States, the European Union and Japan), a world economic crisis and a new technical revolution based on information technology. Thanks to computers and the technological revolution, the financial markets, operating from their offices and answerable to nobody but themselves, have been imposing their laws and world-view on the planet as a whole. Globalisation is merely the totalitarian extension of the logic of the finance markets to all aspects of life. Where they were once in command of their economies, the nation states (and their governments) are commanded - or rather telecommanded - by the same basic logic of financial power, commercial free trade. And in addition, this logic has profited from a new permeability created by the development of telecommunications to appropriate all aspects of social activity. At last, a world war which is totally total! The new international capitalism renders national capitalism obsolete and effectively starves their public powers into extinction. The blow has been so brutal that sovereign states have lost the strength to defend their citizens' interests. The fine showcase inherited from the ending of the cold war - the new world order - has shattered into fragments as a result of the neoliberal explosion. It takes no more than a few minutes for companies and states to be sunk - but they are sunk not by winds of proletarian revolution, but by the violence of the hurricanes of world finance. The son (neoliberalism) is devouring the father (national capital) and, in the process, is destroying the lies of capitalist ideology: in the new world order there is neither democracy nor freedom, neither equality nor fraternity. The planetary stage is transformed into a new battlefield, in which chaos reigns. Megalopolises are reproducing themselves right across the planet. Their favourite spawning ground is in the world's free trade areas. In North America, the North American Free Trade Agreement between Canada, the United States and Mexico is a prelude to the accomplishment of an old dream of US conquest: "America for the Americans". Are megalopolises replacing nations? No, or rather not merely that. They are assigning them new functions, new limits and new perspectives. Entire countries are becoming departments of the neoliberal mega-enterprise. the financial centres are working on a reconstruction of nation states and are reorganising them within a new logic: the economic has the upper hand over the social. In this new war, politics, as the organiser of the nation state, no longer exists. Now politics serves solely in order to manage the economy, and politicians are now merely company managers. The world's new masters have no need to govern directly. National governments take on the role of running things on their behalf. This is what the new order means - unification of the world into one single market. The unification produced by neoliberalism is economic: in the giant planetary hypermarket it is only commodities that circulate freely, not people. What we have here is a destruction of the material bases of nation states, but we also have a destruction of history and culture. Neoliberalism thus imposes the destruction of nations and of groups of nations in order to fuse them into one single model. The war which neoliberalism is conducting against humanity is thus a planetary war, and is the worst and most cruel ever seen. What we have here is a puzzle. The first of these pieces is the two-fold accumulation of wealth and of poverty at the two poles of planetary society. The second is the total exploitation of the totality of the world. The third is the nightmare of that part of humanity condemned to a life of wandering. The fourth is the sickening relationship between crime and state power. The fifth is state violence. The sixth is the mystery of megapolitics. The seventh is the multiple forms of resistance which humanity is deploying against neoliberalism. Piece no. 1: The concentration of wealth and the distribution of poverty The earth has five billion human inhabitants: of these, only 500 million live comfortably; the remaining 4.5 billion endure lives of poverty. The gap between rich and poor is enormous: far from decreasing, social inequalities are growing. Piece no. 2: The globalisation of exploitation the world capitalist system is "modernising" the production, circulation and consumption of commodities. The new technological revolution (information technology) and the new revolution in politics (the megalopolises emerging from the ruins of the nation state) produce a new social "revolution". This social revolution consists of a rearrangement, a reorganisation of social forces and, principally, of the workforce. The world's economically active population (EAP) went from 1.38 billion in 1960 to 2.37 billion in 1990. A large increase in the number of human beings capable of working and generating wealth. But the new world order arranges this workforce within specific geographical and productive areas, and reassigns their functions (or non-functions, in the case of unemployed and precarious workers) within the plan of world globalisation. The world's economically active population by sector (EAPS) has undergone radical changes during the past 20 years. Agriculture and fishing fell from 22 % in 1970 to 12 % in 1990; manufacture from 25 % to 22 %; but the tertiary sector (commercial, transport, banking and services) has risen from 42 % to 56 %. In developing countries, the tertiary sector has grown from 40 % in 1970 to 57 % in 1990, while agriculture and fishing have fallen from 30 % to 15 % (2). This means that increasing numbers of workers are channelled into the kind of activities necessary for increasing productivity or speeding up the creation of commodities this "modern" capitalist production continues to rely on child labour. Out of 1.15 billion children in the world, at least 100 million live on the streets and 200 million work The globalised market is destroying small and medium- sized companies. With the disappearance of local and regional markets, small and medium producers have no protection and are unable to compete with the giant transnationals. All this combines to create a specific surplus: an excess of human beings who are useless in terms of the new world order because they do not produce, do not consume, and do not borrow from banks. In short, human beings who are disposable. Each day the big finance centres impose their laws on countries and groups of countries all around the world. They re-arrange and re-order the inhabitants of those countries. And at the end of the operation they find there is still an "excess" of people. Piece no. 3: Migration, a nightmare of wandering there is a proliferation of "regional wars" and "internal conflicts"; capital follows paths of atypical accumulation; and large masses of workers are mobilised. Result: a huge rolling wheel of millions of migrants moving across the planet. As "foreigners" in that "world without frontiers" which had been promised by the victors of the cold war, they are forced to endure racist persecution, precarious employment, the loss of their cultural identity, police repression, hunger, imprisonment and murder. The fourth world war - with its mechanisms of destruction/depopulation and reconstruction/reorganisation - involves the displacement of millions of people. Their destiny is to wander the world, carrying the burden of their nightmare with them, so as to constitute a threat to workers who have a job, a scapegoat designed to make people forget their bosses, and to provide a basis for the racism that neoliberalism provokes. Piece no. 4: Financial globalisation and the generalisation of crime With the beginning of the fourth world war, organised crime has globalised its activities. The criminal organisations of five continents have taken on board the "spirit of world cooperation" and have joined together in order to participate in the conquest of new markets. They are investing in legal businesses, not only in order to launder dirty money, but in order to acquire capital for illegal operations. Their preferred activities are luxury property investment, the leisure industry, the media - and banking. According to a UN report, the involvement of crime syndicates has been facilitated by the programmes of structural adjustment which debtor countries have been forced to accept in order to gain access to International Monetary Fund loans (3). So here we have the rectangular mirror within which legality and illegality exchange reflections. On which side of the mirror is the criminal? And on which side is the person who pursues him? Piece no. 5: Legitimate violence of illegitimate powers In the cabaret of globalisation, the state performs a striptease, at the end of which it is left wearing the minimum necessary: its powers of repression. With its material base destroyed, its sovereignty and independence abolished, and its political class eradicated, the nation state increasingly becomes a mere security apparatus in the service of the mega-enterprises which neoliberalism is constructing. Instead of orienting public investment towards social spending, it prefers to improve the equipment which enables it to control society more effectively. What is to be done when the violence derives from the laws of the market? Where is legitimate violence then? And where the illegitimate? The monopoly of violence no longer belongs to nation states: the market has put it up for auction. However, when the monopoly of violence is contested not on the basis of the laws of the market, but in the interests of "those from below", then world power sees it as "aggression". This is one of the (least studied and most condemned) aspects of the challenges launched by the indigenous peoples in arms and in rebellion of the Zapatista National Liberation Army against neoliberalism and for humanity. The new world police wants national armies and police to be simple security bodies guaranteeing order and progress within the megalopolises of neoliberalism. Piece no. 6: Megapolitics and its dwarfs But neoliberalism does not conduct its war solely by "unifying" nations and regions. Its strategy of destruction/depopulati on and reconstruction/reorganisation also produces a fracture or fractures within the nation state. This is the paradox of this fourth world war: while ostensibly working to eliminate frontiers and "unite" nations, it actually leads to a multiplication of frontiers and the smashing apart of nations. The elimination of trade frontiers, the explosion of telecommunications, information superhighways, the omnipresence of financial markets, international free trade agreements - all this contributes to destroying nation states and internal markets. Paradoxically, globalisation produces a fragmented world of isolated pieces, a world full of watertight compartments which may at best be linked by fragile economic gangways. Mega-politics globalises national politics - in other words it ties them to a centre which has world interests and which operates on the logic of the market. It is in the name of the market that wars, credits, buying and selling of commodities, diplomatic recognition, trade blocs, political support, laws on immigration, breakdowns of relationships between countries and investment - in short, the survival of entire nations - are decided. The world-wide power of the financial markets is such that they are not concerned about the political complexion of the leaders of individual countries: what counts in their eyes is a country's respect for the economic programme. Financial disciplines are imposed on all alike. These masters of the world can even tolerate the existence of left-wing governments, on condition that they adopt no measure likely to harm the interests of the market. However, they will never accept policies that tend to break with the dominant model. Piece no. 7: Pockets of resistance "To begin with, I ask you not to confuse resistance with political opposition. Opposition does not oppose itself to power but to a government, and its fully-formed shape is that of an opposition party; resistance, on the other hand, cannot be a party, by definition: it is not made in order to govern but... to resist." (TomY s Segovia, "Alegatorio", Mexico, 1996) The apparent infallibility of globalisation comes up hard against the stubborn disobedience of reality. While neoliberalism is pursuing its war, groups of protesters, kernels of rebels, are forming throughout the planet. The empire of financiers with full pockets confronts the rebellion of pockets of resistance. es, pockets. Of all sizes, of different colours, of varying shapes. Their sole common point is a desire to resist the "new world order" and the crime against humanity that is represented by this fourth world war. Whereas the ZNLA fights to defend national sovereignty, the Mexican Federal Army functions to protect a government which has destroyed the material bases of sovereignty and which has offered the country not only to large-scale foreign capital, but also to drug trafficking. The possible shapes are as numerous as the forms of resistance themselves, as numerous as all the worlds existing in this world. So draw whatever shape you like. In this matter of pockets, as in that of resistance, diversity is a wealth. THE WHITE HOUSE Office of the Press Secretary ________________________________________________________________________ For Immediate Release May 12, 1998 INTERNATIONAL CRIME CONTROL STRATEG BACKGROUND International crime is a serious and potent threat to the American people at home and abroad. Drug and firearms trafficking, terrorism, money laundering, counterfeiting, illegal alien smuggling, trafficking in women and children, advanced fee scams, credit card fraud, auto theft, economic espionage, intellectual property theft, computer hacking, and public corruption are all linked to international criminal activity and all have a direct impact on the security and prosperity of the American people. Americans spend billions of dollars annually on cocaine and heroin, all of which originates abroad; in 1997, there were 123 terrorist attacks against U.S. targets worldwide, including 108 bombings and eight kidnappings; each year, approximately one billion dollars worth of stolen cars are smuggled out of this country; annually, U.S. companies lose up to $23 billion from the illegal duplication and piracy of films, compact discs, computer software, pharmaceutical and textile products, while U.S. credit card companies suffer losses of hundreds of millions of dollars from international fraud; and several hundred U.S. companies and other organizations have already suffered computer attacks in 1998, resulting in millions of dollars of losses and significant threats to our safety and security. PURPOSE The International Crime Control Strategy (ICCS) addresses this increasing threat by providing a framework for integrating all facets of the federal government response to international crime. This first ever strategy reflects the high priority accorded international crime by this Administration and builds on such existing strategies as the National Drug Control Strategy and the Presidential Directives on alien smuggling, counter-terrorism and nuclear materials safety and security. The ICCS is also an important initiative in terms of enhancing the ability of U.S. law enforcement officials to cooperate effectively with their overseas counterparts in investigating and prosecuting international crime cases. At the upcoming Birmingham Summit, G-8 leaders will discuss international crime as one of the most pressing issues related to increasing globalization and rapid technological and economic change. President Clinton will highlight the new ICCS in underscoring the U.S. commitment to close cooperation with all nations who are mobilizing to confront this increasing threat. OVERVIEW The ICCS is a plan of action containing eight broad goals with thirty implementing objectives. The ICCS expresses President Clinton's resolve to combat international crime aggressively and substantially reduce its impact on the daily lives of the American people. The Strategy's eight goals and related objectives are: 1. Extend the First Line of Defense Beyond U.S. Borders by (a) preventing acts of international crime planned abroad before they occur, (b) using all available laws to prosecute select criminal acts committed abroad, and (c) intensifying activities of law enforcement, diplomatic and consular personnel abroad. 2. Protect U.S. Borders by (a) enhancing our land border inspection, detection and monitoring capabilities, (b) improving the effectiveness of maritime and air smuggling interdiction efforts, (c) seeking new, stiffer criminal penalties for smuggling activities, and (d) targeting enforcement and prosecutorial resources more effectively against smuggling crimes and organizations. 3. Deny Safe Haven to International Criminals by (a) negotiating new international agreements to create a seamless web for the prompt location, arrest and extradition of international fugitives, (b) implementing strengthened immigration laws that prevent international criminals from entering the United States and provide for their prompt expulsion when appropriate, and (c) promoting increased cooperation with foreign law enforcement authorities. 4. Counter International Financial Crime by (a) combating money laundering and strengthening enforcement efforts to reduce inbound and outbound movement of criminal proceeds, (b) seizing the assets of international criminals, (c) enhancing bilateral and multilateral cooperation against all financial crime, and (d) targeting offshore centers of international fraud, counterfeiting, electronic access device schemes and other financial crimes. 5. Prevent Criminal Exploitation of International Trade by (a) interdicting illegal technology exports, (b) preventing unfair and predatory trade practices in violation of U.S. criminal law, (c) protecting intellectual property rights, (d) countering industrial theft and economic espionage of U.S. trade secrets, and (e) enforcing import restrictions on certain harmful substances, dangerous organisms and protected species. 6. Respond to Emerging International Crime Threats by (a) disrupting new activities of international organized crime groups, (b) enhancing intelligence efforts against criminal enterprises, (c) reducing trafficking in human beings and crimes against children, (d) increasing enforcement efforts against high tech and computer-related crime, and (e) continuing to identify and counter the vulnerabilities of critical infrastructures and new technologies in high tech areas. 7. Foster International Cooperation and the Rule of Law by (a) establishing international standards, goals and objectives to combat international crime and by actively encouraging compliance, (b) improving bilateral cooperation with foreign governments and law enforcement authorities, and (c) strengthening the rule of law as the foundation for democratic government and free markets in order to reduce societies' vulnerability to criminal exploitation. 8. Optimize the Full Range of U.S. Efforts by (a) enhancing executive branch policy and operational coordination mechanisms to the risks of criminal threats and to integrate strategies, goals and objectives to combat those threats, (b) mobilizing and incorporating the private sector into U.S. government efforts, and (c) developing measures of effectiveness to assess progress over time. ICCS INITIATIVES Highlighted below are ten Administration initiatives to further our efforts to fight international crime. 1. International Crime Control Act of 1998: Proposed legislation containing significant new law enforcement tools for the fight against international crime. 2. Comprehensive Threat Assessment: A comprehensive assessment of the threat to the American people posed by international crime, to be completed within six months. 3. International Conference on Upholding Integrity Among Justice and Security Officials: An international conference to address upholding integrity among key justice and security officials worldwide, to be organized by the Vice President within the next six months. 4. High Tech Crime: An action plan, building on the work of the G 8 justice and interior ministers and the creation of the U.S. National Infrastructure Protection Center, to protect interconnected U.S. communications and information systems from attack by international criminals. 5. Border Law Enforcement: A program to enhance border law enforcement through deployment of advanced detection technology and investment of new resources. 6. Financial Crimes: A commitment to employ aggressively new tools to deny criminals access to U.S. financial institutions and to enhance enforcement efforts against financial crimes. 7. International Asset Forfeiture and Sharing: A U.S. call for new criminal asset forfeiture regimes worldwide and new asset forfeiture sharing agreements with our international partners. 8. OAS Treaty Against Illicit Trafficking in Firearms: A program to work with our OAS partners to implement fully a hemispheric convention to combat the illicit manufacturing of and trafficking in firearms, ammunition and explosives. 9. Economic Espionage and Theft of Industrial Property: A commitment to use the Economic Espionage Act to increase U.S. investigations and prosecutions of individuals and companies who attempt to steal U.S. proprietary information. 10. Strategic Communications Plan: A plan to engage the private sector in assessing the impact of international crime on that sector and in determining its appropriate role in countering this threat.

Data Fellows Announces F-Secure Workstation Suite 3.0
by Nina Huupponen 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

For immediate release 27 July 1998 DATA FELLOWS ANNOUNCES F-SECURE WORKSTATION SUITE 3.0 The Worlds First Suite Product with Strong Encryption Provides Corporations with a Complete Security Solution HELSINKI, FINLAND, July 27, 1998 -- Data Fellows, a leading developer of data security solutions, today announced F-Secure Workstation Suite. The product provides a reliable and easy-to-manage solution for most data security concerns of modern corporations. "F-Secure Workstation Suite provides centralized management of most corporate security aspects," says Mr. Risto Siilasmaa, Chief Executive Officer of Data Fellows. "It combines world-class protection against malicious code with unobtrusive file and network encryption. F-Secure Workstation Suite is easily integrated into the enterprises management system. The Suite is also totally unobtrusive for the corporate end-users." F-Secure Workstation Suite is the only product to combine world-class anti-virus protection with strong encryption for network traffic and files stored on the hard disk. Competing offerings from Network Associates and Symantec are not available world-wide with strong encryption. They also lack the centralized policy based management features announced for F-Secure Workstation Suite 4.0. Unparalleled Virus Protection The components of F-Secure Workstation Suite utilize the absolute latest technology in the field. Malicious code detection and removal is based on the F-Secure Anti-Virus product line, the first anti-virus in the world to use multiple scanning engines simultaneously through its revolutionary CounterSign architecture. Its detection rates are unparalleled, and automated updates to the whole network further enhance its reliability. Real-Time File Encryption and IPsec-Based Network Encryption F-Secure Workstation Suite is the only suite product currently available to offer strong encryption all over the world. The product uses an encryption key length of 128 bits or more. The administrator can choose from supported algorithms, including RSA, 3DES and Blowfish. All the most widely used authentication methods are supported. Should the authorized user forget his/her password, the product also contains a safe and easy administrative key retrieval function. "The file encryption component of F-Secure Workstation Suite provides real-time protection for confidential data. F-Secure FileCrypto automatically encrypts all open and temporary files. Not only is encryption completely unobtrusive to the end-user, but it is also extremely secure: there is no way the user can accidentally store confidential information in plain text," explains Mr. Siilasmaa. F-Secure Workstation Suites network encryption, F-Secure VPN+, is based on the latest IPsec standards. The F-Secure VPN+ is fully scalable: it contains three components (Client, Server and Gateway) which can be combined to build all major types of virtual private networks. These include connections between organizations and their partners, home offices, or employees on the road. F-Secure VPN+ is also fully transparent to the end-user, as it uses IP protocol at the network level, which is invisible at the application level. The F-Secure Workstation Suite product contains the client component of F-Secure VPN+. The Server and Gateway components are available separately. Availability The first version of F-Secure Workstation Suite will operate in the Microsoft Windows NT environment. The product will be available from the Data Fellows resellers around the world in August 1998. Prices will start from $68 per seat for a 100-user license. The 4.0 version will be available in early fourth quarter 1998. This version will be a fully integrated, policy-based security solution, making it possible to manage data security issues in accordance with the corporate security policy. The product will be based on a three tier management architecture with considerable scalability advantages in a large organization. In addition to Microsoft Windows NT, it will also operate in the Microsoft Windows 95 and Windows 98 environments. All users of F-Secure Workstation Suite 3.0 will receive a free upgrade to the 4.0 version as it ships. Easy-to-Use Management and Scalability The installation of F-Secure Workstation Suite 4.0 requires no work at the actual workstation, and no configuration from the end-user after the installation. The entire corporate system can be managed centrally. Thus the management of vital security issues is effective but completely transparent to the end-user. F-Secure Workstation Suite supports the industry-standard SNMP protocol, integrates with Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS) and will include agents for leading enterprise management products, such as CA Unicenter, IBM Tivoli and HP OpenView. F-Secure Workstation Suite 4.0 comes bundled with F-Secure Administrator, a Pure Java based graphical console for managing the security policies for the whole enterprise network. About Data Fellows Data Fellows is one of the worlds leading developers of data security products with offices in San Jose, California and Espoo, Finland. Its groundbreaking F-Secure product family is a unique combination of globally available strong encryption and revolutionary anti-virus software. The integrated F-Secure product range provides complete security solutions for enterprises of any size.

Quaint Customs Warning - SPACE ALIENS HIDE MY DRUGS!!!
by Linda Reed--PCC West Campus CSC 17 Dec '03

Canadian Customs Warning - SPACE ALIENS HIDE M DRUGS!!! ________________________________________________________ Although the Reptilian Nazis making preparations in the lavoratories of their SecretUnderGroundBunkers pose an eventual threat to the safety and security of humanity itself, there are many more immediate dangers present in our lives which can bring serious consequences to anyone who remains unaware of them. Thus, I feel that it is important for everyday, average citizens to issue travel warnings for those who may be thinking in venturing into some of the more corrupt areas of the world, such as Canada, where they may find themselved subject to arbitrary and capricious actions by the heavy-handed Canadian Customs BorderGuards before even being allowed to enter the country, after which they will be subject to whatever illegal acts and measures that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police choose to perpetrate upon them. It is particularly important to be wary of entering through certain Customs ports, such as Regway, Saskatchewan, which have a long history of abuse of authority and criminal malefeasance. Bill Mitchell, a Canadian Customs OffalSlur at the Regway port, has been known to steal thousands of dollars worth of goods from those passing through while he is on duty, while being extremely evasive when asked about the legality of his conduct, as well as being very inept at hiding the fact that he is a lying, scumbag piece of shit who is not intelligent enough to tell even halfway believable lies. Although I normally advise people to make what effort they can to get whatever measure of Justice they can through normal legal channels, in the case of countries such as Canada, where even high-ranking political figures are known to be corrupt, where many of the Judges have histories of corruption, substance abuse and complicity in the illegal activities of law enforcement officials, I certainly could not find fault with anyone who surveyed the situation they found themselves in and decided that their best option was to used armed force to prevent becoming a victim of the oppressive, unethical and illegal actions of armed bandits working under the cover of Canadian Government Authority. As well, although one might morally and ethically be perfectly justified in putting a bullet through the brain of armed Canadian Government Bandits who have been trained to deal violently with any person who resists their attempts at enforcing their alleged authority, even when doing so in an unethical and illegal manner, it would be unwise for them to act hastily, since one must be prepared to follow through in regard to such an action, by also eliminating any other government agents who may be present and would constitute an immediate or future threat to the individual who refuses to be subjected to illegal and unethical government actions. Although I suppose that one might make a case for being 'better safe than sorry' when entering Canada through a port such as Regway, and just going ahead and whacking out the whole lot of them, so that they don't have a chance to get the jump on you, before proceeding into the country, I personally think that if one has prepared in advance for dealing with the danger that the Regway Customs OffalSlurs represent, then this option should not be necessary. Of course, I realize that I, myself, am a rather conservative person, so I would certainly not pass judgement on those who are more of a 'take the BullShit by the horns' type of individual. Being, as I say, rather conservative by nature, I don't usually feel it necessary to immediately put to death violent armed Canadian Government Thugs for their crimes against myself or other citizens, even though doing so might well help to prevent future criminal abuses by violent, armed people in positions of authority, since there area variety of other routes that one might take in extracting a measure of Justice or EqualizationOf TheAnalSexualBalanceOfTheTao. As always, anyone who chooses to attempt to receive redress for the crimes committed against them by those in authoritative government positions will be fighting a battle in which the Canadian Justice System is stacked against them. Even though Judge Lee, a notorious drunkard who has performed GodOnlyKnows how many travesties of justice while rendering legal judgements while totally ShitFaced, has retired, many of the other Canadian judges, while perhaps not being as totally out-of-control, are nonetheless known to rubber-stamp pretty much every instance of criminal] abuse perpetrated on the citizenry, as a matter of course. Likewise, the Saskatchewan Justice Department is well-known by the citizens to be a FuckingJoke (TM), and that any person who dares to file a complaint against members of the Canadian Legal Community can expect to be subjected to ridicule and abuse by Justice Department Investigators, as well as perhaps finding themselves the target of further persecution by those being WhiteWashed by their Justice Department BumBuddies. Realizing that any citizen who shot and killed an armed intruder in his home who was attempting to rob HimOrHer of thousands of dollars worth of personal propery would likely be regarded as a hero, while a citizen who shot and killed an ArmedCanadianGovernmentThug who was doing the same, would be the immediate subject of villification by all arms of Canadian Opinon/Reality Creating Agencies, my own preference is to set a goal of returning (1,000)Tit-for-(1)Tat. Being, as I say, a pretty conservative fellow, I have refrained, for the most part, over the years, from extracting a large measure of revenge or retribution for the unethical and illegal TravestiesOfJustice that I have been subjected to by various CanadianAuthorities. Having gone to great lengths to act with reason and civility in the face of oppression and persecution for quite some length of time, and at considerable personal expense to both my finances and my psyche, I can see no reason to have any qualms of conscience in regard to henceforth requiring AThousandEyesForAnEye (TM) as a BalanceOfPayments for acts of thievery and illegality against my person by ArmedCanadianGovernmentThugs. Naturally, if anyone feels that they can offer good, solid advice in regard to why it might be more ethical or justified for me to just keep on TakingItInTheAssTimeAndTimeAgain without complaint or retribution, then I would be more than happy to forward them some advice I received from S.M. Halloran, who works as a Biochemical Researcher at a Spooky Drug Laboratory in AssassAnkara, Turkey: _________________________________________________________________ * To: cypherpunks(a)Algebra.COM * From: "S.

Can you possibly make an appointment with your doctor and make sure your lithium dose is not greater than it ought to be? Mitch Halloran Research (Bio)chemist Duzen Laboratories Group AssassAnkara TURKE mitch(a)duzen.com.tr _________________________________________________________________ I have been following, with great mirth, a current thread on the CPUNX list which expresses great concern over the possible implications to the issues of freedom and privacy by the plans of the Russian Government and/or Military implimenting a StateOfTheArt Monitoring/Surveillance System designed to make BigWolfInBigGrandmothersClothing's ears very, very large indeed. [WAS: "The better to hear EveryOneAndEveryThing with."] I find it interesting that there should be such great concern over the possibility of EvilThings happening in Russia that are already happening in AmeriKaKa, when few Citizens or NetIzens in this country seem to be inclined to actually *do* anything in regard to making an effort to hold accountable those involved in the unethical and criminal persecution of our own DigitalPrisonersOfWar behind Amerika's ElectroMagnetic Curtain. What reason is their to be 'concerned' about matters that one is going to submissively submit to like a LemmingLamb waiting to rush over the cliff and into the BigMouthBigTeeth of BigBrother? James Dalton Bell got RailRoaded, ScrewedBluedAndTattoo'd, SetUp, Fucked Over, and SoldDownTheFuckingRiver for the diabolical crime of openly discussing the same types of concepts and issues that our Founding Fathers wrote about (although they were taking their medication regularly and had the good sense to publish much of their work via anonymous reprinters). ALunaticWhoLooksALotLikeMe got HisorHer computers, and those of family members, confiscated, HisOrHer Sympatico WebSite deleted, and subjected to the threat of years of imprisonment, as a result of putting up an 'RCMP HATE PAGE' parody dedicated the belief that making fun of Dudley DoRight's abuse, persecution and murder of human beings of Native American ancestry was less of a crime than the actual performance of those types of criminal misdeeds. Unless one is prepared to actually take action to prevent the abuse of authority, and to hold those responsible for high-handed, unethical and illegal actions against the Citizens, then the process of 'discussion' on these issues is mere Philosophical Masturbation. The rEvolution is NOW! All that really needs to be said, is "BOOM!" NEWS FLASH!!! If, after someone ButtFucks you, you give them a really great BlowJob, they don't have a whole lot of incentive not to do it again. If the CriminalFuckers are incapable of understanding that "NO Means NO" then perhaps they are capable of understanding that "BOOM Means NO." The willingness of WeTheSheeple to submissivly submit to the atrocious lies, abuses, criminal and unethical behavior of the Rulers&Contollers can be explained, to my mind, by nothing other than BrainWashing. The Truth (TM) of the matter is, the ThugsAndThieves who are in control of this and other countries, are, for the most part, GutLessCowards who are capable of maintaining their intrusive and excessive hold over the lives of the citizenry only by virtue of OrganizedMobRuleOfForce over a ComplacentCitizenry. Upon losing the support system of OfficiallyAuthorizedOrganizedCrime, most of these GutLessCowards fold like a BustedFlush. On the extremely rare occassions where the GutLessCowards are called to account for their criminal behavior and abuse of power, They turn in mass fear on one another, until they have spilled enough of each other's blood, and hacked off enough internal heads, that the citizens are appeased. et the MindsOfTheMasses have become so controlled by the PuppetMasters that, after brief displays of sanity and integrity, they again accept the dichotomic exhortations of the LeftOverLiars&Thieves that everything is now "Different/BackToNormal." "We stopped destroying the minds of unwitting victims of our criminal mind-control experiments esterDay (TM). The IRS is going to cease engaging in high-handed, unethical abuse of the citizens Tomorrow (TM)." The Reason The Government Is Incapable of Dealing With The Present: "The rEvolution is NOW!" "The President you elected has been murdered, but you will not be allowed to know why, or by whom. That is TopSecret information that can only be accessed by those who may have been involved in his murder." "We don't have the time or resources to bring to Justice all of the important and politically connected people who became grotesquely rich while illegally draining BillionsOfDollars from the Savings and Loan system, but we *do* have the time and resources to imprison millions of DarkSkinnedAmericans (and a few LightSkinnedAmericans) for willingly ingesting pharmecutical substances which our own agents illegally put into the bodies of *unwilling* people, without a single one of them being subject to criminal proceedings, even when their actions caused the death of their unwitting victims." "es, we Fucked Jim Bell Silly! So the fuck what? "We got away with it, didn't we? So you can bet your sweet ass that we're going to do it again, and again, at any time we please, and to whoever we please. "If you DumbSchmucks want to sit by placidly while we pick you off OneAtATime, then it doesn't really matter that we're GutLessCowardlyFucks, does it?"

Linda, here is a tidbit of information that you might get interested in... The National Firearms Association has several times put a leash and curbed thoses rabbid dogs. They procure you with ample legal information; just to point out to any govt bully how, per the letter of the law, they are committing a criminal act and how they could get charged. THe thing is, if somebody comes from the states, it is unlikely that a) he/she will know Kanadian law and b) she/he will lay criminal charges. The pertaining Kanadian laws should be widespread in the USA and maybe a cross-border entity could exist to promote the proper conduct of govt bully? In any case, I suggest you ask the NFA about the whole thing of goods confiscation and criminal charges at the border. Recently, there was a US citizen that entered Kanada with a handgun in his toolbox in his car trunk. Oh, what a mess. Here in Kanada, where the good Liberal dictators are convinced that Man is an intrinsically rabbid animal that will kill as soon as he has the means to layed criminal charges and seized this poor US chap cars and belongings and put him in the klink for a while. Of course, in the US, a handgun could legitimately be carried in your toolbox and it is normal not to think of it as a *big thing* (tm), so it is legitimate to not think of it at the moment of border crossing. Anyways, that's it, what happenend happened. The NFA, I think, is working on it. My telling of the story is subject to all sort of distortions and should not be considered reliable... :-) Contact the NFA and the Canadian Firearms Digest home page for more details...

encrypted FM radio hiss

On the subject of RNGs. Thinking about conditioning. Suppose you have a "poor" random number stream, e.g., FM hiss digitized at say 8 Ksamples/sec. Can you get a crypto-secure random-number stream by "whitening" the stream with a good block cipher? This scheme uses the RNG to "kick" the cipher out of the deterministic cycle its in, which is determined by the cipher key and initialialization vector. Poor RNG ----> XOR ----> BlockCipher ----> improved RNG? ^ | |____________________| The output of a good block cipher in feedback mode will pass Diehard tests, though it is not crypto-secure. >From an information theoretic perspective, in the above scheme, you are slowly adding entropy to the output stream, at a rate determined by the actual number of bits/iteration and the bits/symbol of your poor random numbers. If you fed 64 bits of pure random values into a 64 bit cipher you would have a true RNG, filtered by the xor/ciphering, but still crypto-secure. With fewer true bits, you have a 'smooth' way to introduce variable amounts of true entropy. If your RNG is 'stuck at' a constant value you are back to a deterministic PRNG. How do you cryptanalze the mix of a keyed PRNG and a true entropy source here? Is there any mathematical literature on this?
