based on rumor this book is selling extremely well. why have you not seen it in the mainstream media? answer: because the mainstream media is secretly controlled. it is my opinion that we have the government we deserve based on our total apathy and irresponsibility when it comes to the political process, speaking as an american. as slimy and corrupt as Bill is, I think he is just the first layer of the rotteness and that there are many people in government who are far more sinister who use him as a pawn in even more diabolical schemes. I think we are witnessing a scale of corruption at such high levels and of such an extent as to have never before been seen in western civilization. the big question is whether the american public will wake up before the next election, or whether nothing will happen with "business as usual"... buy this book and help free yourself from the invisible prison we find ourselves in!! ------- Forwarded Message Date: Mon, 17 Nov 1997 14:05:21 -0600 From: jlbtexas <jlbtexas(a)swbell.net> To: Ignition Point <Ignition-Point(a)majordomo.pobox.com> Subject: IP: THE SECRET LIFE OF BILL CLINTON THE SECRET LIFE OF BILL CLINTON Book Review By Cathy Leahy Two hundred years ago Frenchman Alexis de Tocqueville came to America to analyze a fledgling democracy and he left celebrating her by writing "Democracy in America." Four years ago, Englishman Ambrose Evans-Pritchard came with that same hope and instead has written America's eulogy in "The Secret Life of Bill Clinton". After reading this well written and well documented book, one might wish to rename it, "The Death of American Democracy At The Hands of Bill Clinton." And if one didn't know the book is about an American president, one would think it describes Hitler, Stalin or better yet, the (now executed for their crimes) Ceaucescus of Romania. In fact, Evans-Pritchard warns that under the corruption of Bill Clinton, "you can sniff the pungent odors of decay in the American body politic" that was in evidence in continental Europe in the 1920s. This is a chilling account of an emerging Clinton pattern of lawlessness with the witting and unwitting complicity of a complacent establishment that should know better. And although Evans-Pritchard doesn't say it, he paints a startling parallel for anyone who has studied history and the rise of Adolf Hitler. Like Hitler, Clinton used established rules to legally establish himself and quickly went about subverting those same rules. Like Hitler, once in office Clinton set about politicizing every government agency under his control, replacing established law enforcement with his own loyalists that would silence his critics. Like Hitler, he then took control of the press to further silence dissent, although Clinton has done it with seduction and lies. Then, unencumbered by law, he went about exterminating his inconvenient associates, two of whom were Vince Foster and Jerry Parks. That done, he must now create a reason for people to give up their liberty in favor of safety with the Oklahoma City bombing. Hitler used his henchman to provoke and help an already irate dissident, Marinus van der Lubbe, to burn the German Reichstag in 1933. Clinton used Oklahoma City to expand his power. If not stopped - and soon, what will he do next? Evans-Pritchard tells us of the Dixie Mafia and about Clinton's rampant corruption in Arkansas. He tells us that the Dixie Mafia is far more dangerous than the Cosa Nostra. Thirty murders in a ten year period is nothing to Clinton's Dixie Mafia with its one hundred and fifty. This book is a portrait, with documentation, of American despotism that we never thought could happen. Left to his own devices, Clinton will put the final nail in the coffin of American democracy. The author does offer some hope, though, but it will have to come from ordinary citizens who still believe in the rule of law. But if Clinton is tried and convicted for his crimes, will he be punished properly? Will he be locked away along with his accomplices never to be heard from again or will he simply be set out to pasture, free to live out his goal of a "one world order" with himself at the helm? It's a frightening account but it is a "must read" by we, the "ordinary citizens." And although America's government controlled schools will never allow it, this book should be required reading in every classroom - to save the country. [The Secret Life of Bill Clinton.

So you are proud of your statement about Japan? You believe that President Truman should have dropped additional atomic bombs (if he had them) on Japan, even _after_ they surrendered? This would have been in contravention of every shred of decency and honor. Such a bloodthirsty act of revenge would have branded the U.S. as hopelessly barbaric, savage and inhuman. Your comments do fit in well with the current tenor of the cypherpunks list, though. Barbaric, savage, indecent, dishonorable. These are the new codewords of the cypherpunks movement. The uglier it gets, the more they like it here. You do indeed fit right in.

http://www.cryptography.org - thanks to Bay Area Cypherpunks!
by Michael Paul Johnson 17 Dec '03

A while ago, the Bay Area Cypherpunks took up a collection to help secure the future of the North American Cryptography Archive. So far, I have used part of that money to register the cryptography.org domain name and part of it to partially cover some other expenses. Since the current main host site is being freely lent to us, that donation should stretch for several years. :-) I have just changed jobs, and am working very long hours, but I still manage to get a little time here and there to maintain the crypto site. If nothing else, it provides a place for people who are concerned about possible government persecution to publish their crypto software legally. (I know that some people may differ with my interpretation of the current rules, but what do you expect from FUD mud?) Anyway, THANK YOU for your help. I am honored by your very tangible expression of appreciation for keeping a crypto site open for years. The new site is functional, now, and has a new name (http://www.cryptography.org) I know that it could use some better indexing, etc., but some of that may come in my spare time. :-) To guard against various forms of disaster (natural or human), I am encouraging others to mirror the site. (I claim no "compilation copyright" - I just want this information to be freely available.) As the regulatory climate changes, I will be watching for windows of legal opportunity (as we almost had with the Bernstein case) to tear down the "front door" to the archive and invite mirroring outside of North America. Until then, of course, most (if not all) of the data in the archive is available outside of North America. U. S. and Canadian citizens are clearly not the only ones who understand and enjoy cryptography! Note: nothing in this message should be construed as an invitation to anyone to violate any valid applicable law. ;-) Thanks again, my friends.

Overcoming War with Information

Cypherpunk technologies should actually _reduce_ the scope of violence, killing, death. These technologies will make it easier to bypass regulations and reduce government control. Free access to communications will make it harder for governments to use propaganda to direct popular opinion as they have in the past. People communicating anonymously will be able to express unpopular views without fear of retribution. It's ironic that some of the greatest supporters of crypto privacy are also the ones who call for more killing, who support terrorist actions like the Oklahoma bombing or a nuclear massacre. They don't seem to understand what this technology is all about.

IS FOSTER KEY TO "THE OCTOPUS?" Editorial When you start digging into the circumstances surrounding the death of White House aide Vince Foster, a number of names keep popping up that have popped up in relation to a number of large scandals of the last two decades. Starting with the "October Surprise," the alleged plot to delay the release of hostages from Iran to after the presidential election in 1980 in an attempt to embarrass President Carter, it is indeed striking that the hostages were released just a few hours after President Reagan was sworn in. A number of witnesses have testified to the involvement of Vice President Bush and Earl Brian in this secret plot. These witnesses, all CIA or Mossad assets, have received the "Terry Reed treatment": indictment on false charges and thorough discrediting. But it was another source, White House staffer Barbara Honegger, who wrote the first "October Surprise" book in 1989. It was early in the Reagan administration that Earl Brian, Richard Secord and others used their influence and connections to make money on selling the pirated PROMIS software from Inslaw Inc. Former OSS agent Jackson Stephens is alleged to have made money on PROMIS as well through his Arkansas Systematics Inc. It was there that Vince Foster, as a partner of Hillary Clinton in the Rose Law Firm and representing Systematics, became involved with the Inslaw affair. A much bigger scandal of government corruption was the Savings and Loan scandal of the 1980. The federally backed savings-and-loans were not only looted by crooks and criminals but also by well-connected politicians who needed an easy buck. Neil Bush and Bill and Hillary Clinton are just a few examples. Apparently not content with the hundreds of billions in S & L loot from the taxpayer, corrupt government officials turned to drugs. The CIA-sponsored Contra re-supply network was used to ship illegal drugs of incredible volume into the United States. CIA assets Terry Reed and L.D. Brown implicate Bill Clinton, George Bush and Oliver North with this operation. A confidential CIA document obtained by the Washington Weekly supports the involvement of George Bush by linking him to arms-dealer Adnan Khashoggi, Richard Secord, and CIA asset John Hull, whose ranch in Costa Rica was used for transshipment of drugs and arms through Mena, Arkansas and other U.S. destinations. Another of these scandals during the 1980s was the illegal penetration of the bank that the CIA preferred - the BCCI Bank of Crooks and Criminals. Politicians across the spectrum are implicated in taking bribes to allow this bank to take over American banks with the help of Jackson Stephens and Vince Foster. No serious investigations have been launched by the Bush and Clinton Justice Departments. Leaving aside for a moment the dispute over whether any of these scandals have been proven, there is one remarkable facet about the facts as they have been presented: some names appear in several of these alleged scandals. Topping the list is George Bush, the only CIA director to become President of the United States. It is difficult to reconcile these serious allegations with the rather decent public image of George and Barbara Bush. But to dismiss these allegations out of hand is to accept a conspiracy that includes a large number of unrelated witnesses naming the same culprits in different scandals. But it should also be said that participants in these scandals may have thought they acted to defeat Communism, where the end would justify every means. After all, that was the prime objective of the CIA during the Cold War. Are these the arms of the octopus that reporter Danny Casolaro referred to just before he was found dead in his hotel room in 1991? He told friends he was tracing a network of government corruption involving Inslaw, BCCI, and the October Surprise. Washington D.C. attorney Paul Wilcher was tracing the same Octopus when he was found dead three days after Vince Foster died. Think back to the 1992 elections for a moment. Did George Bush bring up any of the scandals that could have defeated Clinton? Did he mention Whitewater, Cattlegate, Paula Jones, Gennifer Flowers, Mena? Why not? Did he know that it could backfire seriously because of what Bill Clinton knew about him? Did Bill Clinton take advantage of that in his unlikely bid for the presidency? What, then, is this Octopus? It appears to be an association between rogue elements of the CIA and certain elected officials. An analysis of these structures will show that corruption is inevitable. The CIA has a budget of $28 billion, it assassinates people without being held accountable in a court of law, it operates in secret, it has almost unlimited power and is not subject to any meaningful oversight. Only saints could avoid corruption and abuse of power in such an environment. Then what can we do about it? Limit the budget of the CIA, limit its role, subject it to greater outside scrutiny, expose past scandals and hold individuals responsible for their crimes. Three presidents tried to do just that: John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, and Jimmy Carter. None of them stayed in office for long, and none of them achieved their goal.

INSLAW SUMMARY By Bill Hamilton The following information has been given to each member of the House Judicary Committee and was placed on the Internet in electronic form by Bill Hamilton of Inslaw Corporation. The complete document with supporting details may be obtained from: Inslaw 1125 15th Street, NW Washington, DC 20005-2707 Telephone (202) 828-8638 ... One of the organizational units that reports to Mark Richard is the Office of Special Investigations (OSI). OSI's publicly-declared mission is to locate and deport Nazi war criminals. The Nazi war criminal program is, however, a front for the Justice Department's own covert intelligence service, according to disclosures recently made to INSLAW by several senior Justice Department career officials. One undeclared mission of this covert intelligence service has been the illegal dissemination of the proprietary version of PROMIS, according to information from reliable sources with ties to the U.S. intelligence community. INSLAW has, moreover, obtained a copy of a 27-page Justice Department computer printout, labelled "Criminal Division Vendor List." That list is actually a list of the commercial organizations and individuals who serve as "cutouts" for this secret Justice Department intelligence agency, according to intelligence community informants and a preliminary analysis of the computerized list. A significant proportion of the 100-plus companies on the list appear to be in the computer industry. The Justice Department's secret intelligence agency also has its own "proprietary" company that employs scores of agents of diverse nationalities, as well as individuals who appear to be regular employees of various departments and agencies of the U.S. Government or members of the U.S. Armed Forces, according to several sources.

Adam Back writes: > I am pleased that you are discussing with us crypto politics in > Japan... we have few contributors from Japan in the past. Yeah, surprising, isn't it, considering how open and welcoming the cypherpunks have been to foreigners and minority races... Actually Adam Back should be nominated for cypherpunk of the year. Unlike a blowhard do-nothing like Timothy "Chop-chop" May (and now we know what the C stands for, don't we?), Adam actually accomplishes things. His 3-line RSA has dramatized the absurdity of the export controls like nothing else. He built a working prototype of an eternity server while everybody else just talked about it. He's been a leader in the fight to oppose PGP GAKware. He has strong political views but is not motivated by hatred and fear. Adam doesn't get nearly the respect he deserves, probably because he's not much of a wordsmith. Tim May's sophistry is good enough to pull the wool over most people's eyes. But look deeper and you'll see that Adam's heart is pure. That's worth far more than May's skill at artfully wrapping his garbage.
