From: http://www.turnleft.com "The Home of Liberalism on the Web"] What They Don't Want You to Know by Auto-Correspondent "http://www.cjnetworks.com/~cubsfan/conspiracy.html" In order to understand InfoWar you need to realize that everything is controlled by a CypherPunks list made up of Cult of One members with help from Nobody and Anonymous. The conspiracy first started during the Censorship Experiment in majordomo@toad.com. They have been responsible for many events throughout history, including the InfoWar. Today, members of the conspiracy are everywhere. They can be identified by their Code writing. They want to electronically forge TruthMonger posts and imprison resisters in Silicon Valley using Trei Transponders. In order to prepare for this, we all must Nuke DC. Since the media is controlled by Declan McCullagh we should get our information from Black Unicorn's yellow-menace writing in blanc snow.. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just as he had suspected! A Player To Be Named Later read the output of the Java script at Left Turn's 'Make Your Own Conspiracy Theory' page. Left Turn had confirmed everything he had been discovering on his own, even when he had discovered facts and information which pointed toward completely contradictory conspiracy theories. A Player To Be Named Later recognized that this was positive proof that the roots of the Great Conspiracy had spread throughout the very fabric of reality, itself. He now knew that the conspiracy was no longer just some outside entity which lived in the shadows around him, waiting for him to let down his guard before it sprang its waiting traps and enclosed him with its vicious iron jaws. He now knew that it went much, much deeper than that. Now, he knew the conspiracy was in his Mind! A Player To Be Named Later had immediately dropped all of his other InterNet personas and erased all signs of them from his hard drive. With the new knowledge he had gained, he knew that he could no longer trust even himself. The first sign that the conspiracy had managed to spread throughout both reality and virtual reality were the posts to the CypherPunks mailing list by Damaged Justice. Subject: Internet putting truth in danger From: Damaged Justice <frogfarm@yakko.cs.wmich.edu> Organization: Somewhere just far enough outside of your jurisdiction To: cypherpunks@Algebra.COM THE generation that has grown up on The X-Files poses a threat to the future of journalism, Fergal Keane, the BBC's Asia Correspondent, said last night. Subject: Assassination Politics of a sort There's a bounty on Gordie Howe's head. And Gordie isn't laughing about it. Howe, 69, is planning to file a police complaint against a California radio personality who offered a bounty to have "the old fool pummeled back to reality." Subject: FBI vs Silicon Valley: Guess Who's Winning? The likely outcome: a tactical retreat by industry to avoid an all-out rout. The electronic wizards seem to have met their match in a Washington cop named Louis Freeh. Subject: Trac[k]ing the Successful Drug User By deploying their questionnaire on the Web, the researchers are hoping to use the relative anonymity of the Net to access a "hidden population" of drug users who would be disinclined to give accurate reports of illegal use to face-to-face interviewers, Nicholson says. In a short series of posts, Damaged Justice had managed to subtly point out that: The InterNet, in the hands of the public, was a threat to truth. Assassination Politics would lead to the death of heroes such as Gordie Howe. Louis Freeh is going to kick the electronic wizards' butts. Successful people on the InterNet are all secret drug users. A Player To Be Named Later had seen the duplicity in Damaged Justice's posts long before this, just as he had in the posts of Se7en. Se7en purported to be a diabolical hacker turned lecturer, working the security and LEA (law enforcement agency) circuit, but it had become obvious that it was they who were working him. Se7en had got caught up in the LEA's child pornography ruse and wrote a lengthy diatribe to the CypherPunks list about the millions of pedophiles lurking in the shadows of the InterNet. This came at a time which was convenient for adding support to the agendas of several of the government shills working the list at that time. A Player To Be Named Later had followed the trail of alleged pointers and addresses that were provided by Se7en, only to find the usual spooks lurking in the background. It was obvious that the spooks were doing their best to cultivate a crop of genuine pedophiles by seeding the InterNet with pointers to trails of perversion that they had carefully laid out themselves. No doubt they would keep their self-generated perverts on ice until it came time to drag them out into the public eye for one of their show-and-tell displays of the 'good fight' they were putting up against the evil InterNet. A Player To Be Named Later hadn't run his usual analysis on the past posts and email traffic of Damaged Justice and those connected to him, but he was not sure that it really mattered anymore, anyway. There were indications that FUD/DoubleSpeak/SpinDoctoring/VirtualTruth-whatever you wanted to name it-had reached critical mass. He took another look at one of Choate's posts to the CypherPunks list: Subject: 6 USAF Crashes in 7 days = InfoWar? From: Jim Choate <ravage@ssz.com> To: cypherpunks@ssz.com (Cypherpunks Distributed Remailer) Just a thought... The connection was obvious. A number of stories made it into the periphery of the mainstream press concerning the U.S. spooks campaign to murder 'bad' foreigners by introducing defective parts into the products they bought for their armed forces. Then the U.S. forces immediately got hit with a rash of high-profile 'accidents' to their own military units. It was a clear message to the U.S. spooks that two (or more) could play that game. So clear, in fact, that the Pentagon publicly and privately pulled in the reins on a variety of normal and special operations, in order to shake the trees for defective parts and defective soldiers. (Mostly the latter.) The Real Guy had planned an expose on the background events taking place in this area, but had decided not to do so, uncertain as to why he had made that decision, at the time. Now, A Player To Be Named Later realized that it was because FUD (Fear, Uncertainty & Disinformation) had become the rule of the day, and there was no longer anyone left to preach to but the converted-and the converted were becoming unconverted at an increasingly rapid rate. It had become obvious, I suppose, when it took so little effort on the Pentagon's part to cover up the pair of rogue U.S. Air Force pilots who had been positively linked to the Circle of Eunuchs by the secret task force dedicated to rooting them out of their hiding places deep within the bowels of government and corporate agencies around the world. It was not surprising that they had managed to cover up the involvement of the nuclear bomber pilot, since they were able to label her a sex criminal before she had taken any overt action that would serve to trigger the interest of those paying close attention to such things. It was her proximity to the Author's current location that had led to her discovery. The retired Air Force intelligence officer who had been assigned to shadow the Author in Do Well, Saskatchewan, had alerted Canadian Customs to notify him any time that soldiers from Minot Air Force Base crossed into his territory. Although she never made physical contact with the Author, her mere presence in close proximity to him led to an in-depth investigation that turned up enough 'coincidences' to require her removal from service. What was very troubling, however, was the fact that another of the Author's contacts, from the Air Force base at his old stomping grounds in Tucson, had been able to break formation on a training run, fly halfway across the country with live bombs, almost making it to the site of the McVeigh trial in Denver, and yet it hardly rated a "Gee, I wonder why he did that?" in the mainstream press. Tentative suggestions that the pilot was 'emotionally troubled' were eaten up by the press, despite evidence to the contrary from his friends and relatives, so readily that the Air Force never even had to release the 'psychiatrist reports' that had been hastily prepared to be 'leaked' to the right sources, if needed. A Player To Be Named Later wondered if all reporters for the mainstream press were not, in fact, still incarcerated in the press compounds set up for Operation Desert Storm. Were the 'backgrounds' they appeared to be reporting from in reality just virtual creations from inside their media prison? A pilot carrying live bombs makes a beeline for the site of the Oklahoma Bomber's trial; a truck full nuclear warheads goes missing; soldiers on a base are the target of an armed assault; the pilot of a nuclear bomber is shanghaied on curiously slim pretexts; a horde of major armed forces figures suddenly resign or are shifted to non-sensitive positions-and the world hardly seems to notice. When a single former Russian General, however, with close connections to the spooks, writes a no-brainer book with unsupported claims about nuclear suitcases falling into the hands of the US's proclaimed 'enemies,' then the mainstream press snaps to attention and gives full coverage to the dark threat posed by theoretical, unseen, dark-skinned people who we will need to be protected from, in the future. "Gee, I wonder why he would do that?" A Player To Be Named Later said, sarcastically, while visualizing a dark-skinned person in a foreign country purchasing a nuclear suitcase from CIA-run Russian spooks. "I suppose that if there was hard, non-refutable evidence of an Air Force soldier purchasing a nuclear suitcase and going AWOL, headed for Washington, DC, that this would be the reaction of the mainstream press. But let a foreign 'darkie' try it, and all of a sudden we need to suspend some more basic human rights, even if it was a BATF shill who was being run by a CIA connected, former German intelligence operative who is related to a high-ranking German politician who was involved in the Iran-Contra drugs-for-arms scandal." A Player To Be Named Later reached for a bottle of Scotch sitting behind his laptop, taking a slow pull off of it as he reviewed the signs of the death of investigative journalism in the past few years. The CIA had used Woodward and Bernstein effectively during their assault on the Presidency at the close of the Nixon scandal. The problem was that it inspired a plethora of uncontrollable impersonators who wreaked havoc with their efforts at FUD control. So they orchestrated the movement of investigative journalism into the mundane mainstream of everyday life. The sheeple didn't care about world politics and behind the scenes power struggles. Their real interests lie in secret videos of an employee dipping his dick in a coworker's coffee; a mechanic putting the old distributor cap back on and charging the customer for a new one; a black mayor snorting coke and getting a little trim from the ladies of the night. All of this became breaking news which required the full force of the media digging into the dark corners of these people's lives. Until the world's nasty little secrets became just another everyday, run of the mill part of normal life. Now, Media Reality had finally approached critical mass, as foreseen by a variety of voices crying in the wilderness, from George Orwell to Marshal McLuhan. Now, it was only a matter of time. A Player To Be Named Later read the "Internet putting truth in danger" post by Damaged Justice, once again: Mr Keane, delivering the Huw Weldon Memorial Lecture at a television convention, said that he was worried about the growing influence of the Internet, and the conspiracy theories that are aired on it. God help us if things deteriorated to the point where ordinary people put the mainstream media 'truth' in danger by pointing out the obvious to people who didn't really want to know why a U.S. Air Force pilot would head for the site of McVeigh's trial with a load of live bombs. Maybe he just got lostÂ… He told the Royal Television Society's Cambridge Convention that the rash of rumours about the circumstances of the death of Diana, Princess of Wales showed that there was a public appetite for speculation and fantasy. He said: "Will the generation growing up on The X-Files really want to choose calm, considered reportage when they have science-fiction and fantasy?" "Calm, considered reportage." A Player To Be Named Later intoned, solemnly, thinking about the first interview he had seen by the major media with someone who had been close to the Princess's fatal accident. "Explosion." That was the first, and only, time he had heard that word used by someone who had been present at the time of the accident. By the time the rest of North America had awoken that morning, there were only reporters feeding the world the disinformation being officially released by the authorities. And in a world where reporters will dig up a dead body to do DNA tests to see if the deceased was, indeed, fucking Tom Cruise, the major networks somehow managed to 'lose' the footage of interviews with the original witnesses, offering, instead, interviews with people who thought that maybe something was perhaps taking place down there in the tunnel, but who really knows? We were told that there were no witnesses to the accident, yet we were still fed unlikely reports of a motorcycle with photographers on it zigzagging in front of the death vehicle at over a hundred miles an hour, and sundry other inanities reeking of 'now you see it, now you don't' spin doctoring. He said that the trend threatened to plunge reporting into the "rumour-ridden gloom of the Middle Ages". God forbid that unseemly rumors might spread concerning a man heading a covert organization involved in running illegal drugs and arms ascending to the Presidency after succeeding the front-man who had come to power as a result of those illegal actions, and who had invaded a foreign country to capture the drug-dealing monster who had been his closest bum-buddy during his spook days. God forbid that Joe Average should be exposed to the knowledge that a succession of their Presidents were backed by the big bucks made by their friends and relatives in business with the Nazis right up to the end of World War II. Knowledge such as this was dangerous knowledge that would put the spoon-fed "truth" of the mainstream media "in danger" if the InterNet was allowed to become a purveyor of 'unofficial' or 'non-approved' news. A Player To Be Named Later thought of the three days of intensive press coverage in which a multitude of mainstream media personnel spent hour upon hour adding fuel to 'official leak' inspired rumors while not seeming to be able to get any information at all on the players who were part and parcel of the media's daily business activities. He had been waiting to see the pictures of the concrete column that the heavily armored death vehicle had supposedly hit at over a hundred miles per hour. Nothing. {In Toledo, or Detroit, or some other 'cable channel' city, a day or so later, some no-name John Doe was killed after his vehicle struck a concrete column on a local road structure. There were reporters from a number of media sources there, getting close-ups of the vehicle, the column, and the damage to it, the broken scraps of concrete at the accident scene. A Player To Be Named Later saw it two or three times that day, as the media ensured that all the circumstances surrounding the death of John Doe would be subjected to the light of mainstream media 'truth.' He saw pictures from a variety of different angles, obviously taken in the interest of satisfying his 'right to know' all of the details surrounding the death of John Doe, Anywhere, USA.} ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- "The Xenix Chainsaw Massacre" "WebWorld & the Mythical Circle of Eunuchs" "InfoWar (Part III of 'The True Story of the InterNet') ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
