Olympic Jewells: Utah = UK

[Brinworld, domestic surveillance] Monitoring nearly everything will be hundreds of surveillance cameras, some able to scan an Olympic identification badge from 1,000 feet away. "The Secret Service is one agency that hangs its hat on security that is discreet," Camillo said. "There will be a visual presence because of magnetometers and fencing. What you won't see is what I'll describe as a police state." http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-011102oly.story ..... Sounds like the British visitors will feel right at home...

It's my understanding that one hostage was killed early in the standoff, and that another team member (a coach?) was shot but escaped as the hostages were being captured initially. Some time later, the German authorities provided the terrorists with a bus - the hostages and terrorists boarded the bus and drove to the airport, where two helicopters were waiting for them. There - on the airport tarmac - there was a gunfight between (AFAIK) German police and the terrorists, which led to killing all of the remaining hostages, many of the terrorists, and some police. A few months later, with the cooperation of the German government, a German airplane was captured in a faux hijacking, and those "hostages" were exchanged for the remaining terrorists in German custody. All but one of them have subsequently been assassinated by Mossad. "One Day In September" is a documentary about this which isn't impossible to find on DVD or VHS. .. or are you saying that the airport firefight took place between Israeli soldiers in German police uniforms and the terrorists? That's not unimaginable, but the Israelis seem more competent, and inclined towards overwhelming force and rapid attack - see, e.g., their Operation Gift on 12/28/68, where three teams totalling 64 men destroyed 14 planes on the runway at Beirut International Airport in retaliation for a November attack on an El Al airliner. (See, e.g., <http://www.isayeret.com/operations/gift.htm> or <http://www.idf.il/english/history/tshura.stm>.) I don't have any personal knowledge about this - probably nobody on the list does - but I'm pretty skeptical of the claim that the airport attack was an Israeli creation - not because I think they're saints, but because it wasn't their style. Besides, it's hard to imagine that Germany would allow an Israeli military force to land at a German airport, take it over, use it to ambush terrorists, then blame the resulting casualties on the local authorities .. or that Israel would be able to do that without German cooperation. That just doesn't sound like something a government would do, especially not a German government dealing with Israel. -- Greg Broiles -- gbroiles(a)parrhesia.com -- PGP 0x26E4488c or 0x94245961 Eliminate due process, civil rights?

URGENT BUSINESS PROPOSAL
by DR ABIM BOLA 11 Jan '02

11 Jan '02

Dear Sir/Madam, I am DR ABIM BOLA, Bank Manager of ORIENT BANK OF NIGERIA, Lagos Branch. I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On June 6 1997, an American oil consultant/contractor with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, Mr. Barry Kelly made a numbered time (Fixed) deposited for twelve calendar months, valued at US$25,000,000.00 (Twenty-five Million Dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation that Mr. Barry Kelly died from an automobile accident. On further investigation, I found out that he did not leave a WILL and all attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. Barry Kelly did not declare any next of kin in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork. This sum of US$25,000,000.00 is still sitting in the Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one will come forward to claim it. According to the Nigerian Law, at the expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the Nigerian Government if nobody applies to claim thefunds. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to Mr. Barry Kelly so that the fruits of this old manls labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt officials. This is simple, I will like you to provide me immediately with your full names and address so that the attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits, which will put you in place as the next of kin. We shall employ the services of two attorneys for drafting and notarization of the WILL and obtain the necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favor the transfer. A bank account in any part of the world, which you provide, will then facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin. The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 60% for me and 40% for you. There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the attorney and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. If you are interested, please reply immediately via the private email address below. Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand. Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest myshare in your country. Awaiting your urgent reply via email: Thanks and regards DR ABIM BOLA

Last Rites for Joshua.
by mattd 11 Jan '02

11 Jan '02

Last rites for joshua. Jeff looked up as his son left for school,little did he realize that was the last time he would ever see his son happy and alive.He was running a bit late that day having been up late exchanging e-mail and moderating a new subversive website.His work involved infiltrating and then COINTELPROing extremist fringe groups that sometimes looked like they might pose a threat to the GOVT. He got the ransom note that night as his wife prowled back and forth shaking and bursting into tears every few minutes. It came in the form of an anonymous e-mail that gave a remailer as the return adress.It said, "We want you to come to GPS co-ordinates such and such.At this time.You may be observed.any trails or tricks,josh dies,You saw dirty harry? This is that.any slip ups josh dies.Get it,got it,good." The next 1 hour was a nightmare for the bulky unfit agent as he was given the run around,the city.Once he thought he was to late for one phone box call and he had a moment where he thought he was having a aneurysm. The phone rang and shocked him back to the black reality of the moment.The police that had been trailing him were long gone.The instructions were simple,take the pill taped under the bench down by the river then walk slowly up to a nearby bridge.He did as he was told.The river water was freezing,his fillings ached.He remembered the bridge though he didn't quite make it before he nodded off falling onto some wet grass was his last memory. The memories since recovered with hypnosis indicate that Jeff woke up next to his son.There followed some periods where various requests were made by masked men to josh and then jeff. These requests were similar to those made on prisoners of bosnian and croation serbs at first. The sessions were interrupted by long periods of total darkness when josh and jeff were forced by Alsatians into separate pits.By then both were missing fingernails,hair,toes,ears,teeth and large patches of skin. They culminated in jeffs testicles being bitten off by his own son.After one recovery period jeff was told ordered to turn his son on a spit.Jeff noticed through a red haze that joshua was impaled from his anus to his collar bone.He was awake but seemed to exhausted to scream as he was slowly lowered onto the hot coals. On jeffs refusal a large bucket with drifting dry ice mist was wheeled in.Jeffs entire right arm was forced into this container as the hungry Alsatians circled.As soon as his arm emerged it was struck a violent blow.Jeff felt no pain and even little emotion as his entire forearm shattered into crystalline pieces.He knew now he had to turn his son on the spit (to be cont)

Those wacky german censors, Ashcroft, and other latent nazis
by Major Variola (ret) 11 Jan '02

11 Jan '02

NEW YORK A German United Nations employee who admitted scratching anti-Semitic graffiti on a Jewish neighbor's door and setting it afire was indicted Thursday on arson and other charges as hate crimes. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A27686-2002Jan10.html ...... BERLIN -- German Interior Minister Otto Schily, an energetic campaigner against U.S.-based neo-Nazi websites, has asked U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft for help in his fight. Specifically, Schily asked Ashcroft during one of their recent face-to-face meetings to exert pressure on an American Internet service provider to block a site with an official-sounding German name that currently diverts traffic to a neo-Nazi site. As of Wednesday, anyone clicking on www.bundesinnenministerium.com will end up looking not at content supplied by Schily's office, the German Interior Ministry, but at a site run by Gerhard Lauck of Nebraska, dubbed by some the "Farmbelt Fuehrer" because of his enthusiasm for Hitler. "We contacted the provider and asked him to put down that site, www.bundesinnenministerium.com," said Dirk Inger, Schily's spokesman. "They said a lot of things. First they said they had to check it, then they said they would do it. Then they said they would check it again. But nothing happened." So, said Inger, Schily asked Ashcroft for his help when the two men met twice last month, once in Washington and once in Berlin, to discuss the war on terrorism. "It was constructive," said Inger. "It's difficult, of course, because of your legislation and the First Amendment of the Constitution." The German Interior Ministry has also contacted the German Embassy in Washington and the Simon Wiesenthal Center, asking both to lobby the ISP directly. It also approached the United Nations Domain Name Dispute Resolution Service. http://www.wired.com/news/politics/0,1283,49566,00.html

Johansen charged in Norway
by mattd 11 Jan '02

Loud sound of slamming barn doors.Norway as a nation must have terminal Scandinavian suicidal angst. It is the middle of winter. Please supply address's for immediate PAP(peoples assassination politics) smears to be made of these raindeer meatball eaters. Do they know we have black belt karate experts? I may resemble a Beverley hills ninja myself but I NEVER get stockholm syndrome. Its nearly mosquito season if we can rush release our Marburgquito? Turn a cool zone into a hot one. They'll all look like edvard Munch by the time we get through with them. This is a sign...anyone who's seen,carpenters, "the Thing" can see that. They can all be safely murdered as they haven't been evolutionarily necessary since Derek the viking.Mays great grand parents were expelled for fornicating with mangy seals and spitting on the smorgasbord. The only decent spot in this fiord infested shithole is Troll wall,where the lemmings run free and the aryan nazi wannabees will be tossed off.What else can be expected from a Quisling country? Kill the president and everyone in Norway.mattd.
