I'm sure some of those who read this blog are still having a hard time coming to terms with the idea that the U.S. government was complicit in the attacks of September 11th, 2001. This isn't surprising. It took nearly 3 years of research for me to be completely convinced. When you are presented with an idea so horrendous, so despicable, so...unbelievable...it becomes just that, hard to believe. This post is dedicated to exposing something even more horrible than any government sponsored terrorist attack could ever be.

What would you say if I told you that corrupt elements of the US government and the CIA are involved in organizing the largest child sex ring in the world? What if I told you they are responsible for kidnapping thousands of US children each year? You'd be shocked. You'd probably be in disbelief. Well, so was I until I did some digging.

Please, if you only research one thing, this should be it.

First of all, what do you think is the answer to the headline for this post? To me, pure evil would be human beings that are supposed to protect the innocent, people who are supposed to save the weak, leaders who are supposed to defend a nation taking advantage of the power they wield and doing the most heinous acts imaginable. Why? Because it's the only way they can get their thrills and because they know that no one will believe it.

I want to leave my analysis out of it. I'm not trying to promote an ideology. I belong to no political party and I care only about revealing the truth. It should be expected that the most disgusting and evil things in the world are hidden. I will simply show you the door, it is your choice to walk through it. It will be up to you to make your own analysis.

First of all...a frame of reference

I am not crazy.

I'm just skeptical.

I am not cynical.

I simply avoid denial.

I have plenty of opinions, speculative beliefs, and other considerations concerning this information. I would love for anyone who is concerned to talk to me about it personally and I am sure that we can have a very interesting discussion.

Maybe this information doesn't convince you of anything, but if it doesn't at least make you question some things, some people, and some events in recent history then there is something seriously wrong with you, not just our country.

This Friday (Nov. 24th, 2006) the annual Lone Star Showdown takes place in Austin, TX. As a staunch supporter of my football team, the Texas Longhorns, I figured it was necessary to showcase just what kind of Fightin' Texas Aggie Spirit we are up against this weekend.

Global Hawk Spy Drone Makes First Official Air Combat Command Flight Across USA

Gretchen Carlson expressed skepticism about those people who are worried about invasion of privacy, saying "You know, I don't completely understand this whole controversy when people get all up in arms over the fact that someone may be watching. I mean, for goodness sake, we don't know who's even listening to our phone calls. I know, I know that's a big deal and all that but - aren't you busy in your life and you're worrying about other things goin' on with your family and stuff like that, not worrying about who might be watching you and listening to you with a drone. I don't know. It doesn't bother me."

Air Combat Command Flight?!?!?!

Sorry, Gretchen, I'm sure caring about your job, family, AND the government spying on you is just a little much for a former Miss America posing as a journalist. Thankfully, I'm not, and I can multitask.

Did the CIA kill Bobby Kennedy?
The London Guardian November 20, 2006 Shane O'Sullivan

At first, it seems an open-and-shut case. On June 5 1968, Robert Kennedy wins the California Democratic primary and is set to challenge Richard Nixon for the White House. After midnight, he finishes his victory speech at the Ambassador hotel in Los Angeles and is shaking hands with kitchen staff in a crowded pantry when 24-year-old Palestinian Sirhan Sirhan steps down from a tray-stacker with a "sick, villainous smile" on his face and starts firing at Kennedy with an eight-shot revolver.

As Kennedy lies dying on the pantry floor, Sirhan is arrested as the lone assassin. He carries the motive in his shirt-pocket (a clipping about Kennedy's plans to sell bombers to Israel) and notebooks at his house seem to incriminate him. But the autopsy report suggests Sirhan could not have fired the shots that killed Kennedy. Witnesses place Sirhan's gun several feet in front of Kennedy, but the fatal bullet is fired from one inch behind. And more bullet-holes are found in the pantry than Sirhan's gun can hold, suggesting a second gunman is involved. Sirhan's notebooks show a bizarre series of "automatic writing" - "RFK must die RFK must be killed - Robert F Kennedy must be assassinated before 5 June 68" - and even under hypnosis, he has never been able to remember shooting Kennedy. He recalls "being led into a dark place by a girl who wanted coffee", then being choked by an angry mob. Defence psychiatrists conclude he was in a trance at the time of the shooting and leading psychiatrists suggest he may have be a hypnotically programmed assassin. Three years ago, I started writing a screenplay about the assassination of Robert Kennedy, caught up in a strange tale of second guns and "Manchurian candidates" (as the movie termed brainwashed assassins). As I researched the case, I uncovered new video and photographic evidence suggesting that three senior CIA operatives were behind the killing. I did not buy the official ending that Sirhan acted alone, and started dipping into the nether-world of "assassination research", crossing paths with David Sanchez Morales, a fearsome Yaqui Indian.

Morales was a legendary figure in CIA covert operations. According to close associate Tom Clines, if you saw Morales walking down the street in a Latin American capital, you knew a coup was about to happen. When the subject of the Kennedys came up in a late-night session with friends in 1973, Morales launched into a tirade that finished: "I was in Dallas when we got the son of a bitch and I was in Los Angeles when we got the little bastard." From this line grew my odyssey into the spook world of the 60s and the secrets behind the death of Bobby Kennedy.

Working from a Cuban photograph of Morales from 1959, I viewed news coverage of the assassination to see if I could spot the man the Cubans called El Gordo - The Fat One. Fifteen minutes in, there he was, standing at the back of the ballroom, in the moments between the end of Kennedy's speech and the shooting. Thirty minutes later, there he was again, casually floating around the darkened ballroom while an associate with a pencil moustache took notes.

The source of early research on Morales was Bradley Ayers, a retired US army captain who had been seconded to JM-Wave, the CIA's Miami base in 1963, to work closely with chief of operations Morales on training Cuban exiles to run sabotage raids on Castro. I tracked Ayers down to a small town in Wisconsin and emailed him stills of Morales and another guy I found suspicious - a man who is pictured entering the ballroom from the direction of the pantry moments after the shooting, clutching a small container to his body, and being waved towards an exit by a Latin associate.

Ayers' response was instant. He was 95% sure that the first figure was Morales and equally sure that the other man was Gordon Campbell, who worked alongside Morales at JM-Wave in 1963 and was Ayers' case officer shortly before the JFK assassination.
I put my script aside and flew to the US to interview key witnesses for a documentary on the unfolding story. In person, Ayers positively identified Morales and Campbell and introduced me to David Rabern, a freelance operative who was part of the Bay of Pigs invasion force in 1961 and was at the Ambassador hotel that night. He did not know Morales and Campbell by name but saw them talking to each other out in the lobby before the shooting and assumed they were Kennedy's security people. He also saw Campbell around police stations three or four times in the year before Robert Kennedy was shot.

This was odd. The CIA had no domestic jurisdiction and Morales was stationed in Laos in 1968. With no secret service protection for presidential candidates in those days, Kennedy was guarded by unarmed Olympic decathlete champion Rafer Johnson and football tackler Rosey Grier - no match for an expert assassination team.

Trawling through microfilm of the police investigation, I found further photographs of Campbell with a third figure, standing centre-stage in the Ambassador hotel hours before the shooting. He looked Greek, and I suspected he might be George Joannides, chief of psychological warfare operations at JM-Wave. Joannides was called out of retirement in 1978 to act as the CIA liaison to the House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA) investigating the death of John F Kennedy.

Ed Lopez, now a respected lawyer at Cornell University, came into close contact with Joann-des when he was a young law student working for the committee. We visit him and show him the photograph and he is 99% sure it is Joannides. When I tell him where it was taken, he is not surprised: "If these guys decided you were bad, they acted on it.

We move to Washington to meet Wayne Smith, a state department official for 25 years who knew Morales well at the US embassy in Havana in 1959-60. When we show him the video in the ballroom, his response is instant: "That's him, that's Morales." He remembers Morales at a cocktail party in Buenos Aires in 1975, saying Kennedy got what was coming to him. Is there a benign explanation for his presence? For Kennedy's security, maybe? Smith laughs. Morales is the last person you would want to protect Bobby Kennedy, he says. He hated the Kennedys, blaming their lack of air support for the failed Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961.

We meet Clines in a hotel room near CIA headquarters. He does not want to go on camera and brings a friend, which is a little unnerving. Clines remembers "Dave" fondly. The guy in the video looks like Morales but it is not him, he says: "This guy is fatter and Morales walked with more of a slouch and his tie down." To me, the guy in the video does walk with a slouch and his tie is down.

Clines says he knew Joannides and Campbell and it is not them either, but he fondly remembers Ayers bringing snakes into JM-Wave to scare the secretaries and seems disturbed at Smith's identification of Morales. He does not discourage our investigation and suggests others who might be able to help. A seasoned journalist cautions that he would expect Clines "to blow smoke", and yet it seems his honest opinion.

As we leave Los Angeles, I tell the immigration officer that I am doing a story on Bobby Kennedy. She has seen the advertisements for the new Emilio Estevez movie about the assassination, Bobby. "Who do you think did it? I think it was the Mob," she says before I can answer.

"I definitely think it was more than one man," I say, discreetly.
Morales died of a heart attack in 1978, weeks before he was to be called before the HSCA. Joannides died in 1990. Campbell may still be out there somewhere, in his early 80s. Given the positive identifications we have gathered on these three, the CIA and the Los Angeles Police Department need to explain what they were doing there. Lopez believes the CIA should call in and interview everybody who knew them, disclose whether they were on a CIA operation and, if not, why they were there that night.

Today would have been Robert Kennedy's 81st birthday. The world is crying out for a compassionate leader like him. If dark forces were behind his elimination, it needs to be investigated

THERE IS A WAR ON FOR YOUR MIND

Only 16% Think Government Telling the Truth about 9/11

According to a new New York Times/CBS News poll, only 16% of Americans think the government is telling the truth about 9/11:
----------------------
"Do you think members of the Bush Administration are telling the truth, are mostly telling the truth but hiding something, or are they mostly lying?

Telling the truth 16%

Hiding something 53%

Mostly lying 28% (I'm in this group.)

Not sure 3%"

Hijacking Catastrophe: 9/11, Fear & the Selling of American Empire

A video of a firefighter describing seeing molten "steel" flowing at ground zero after 9/11 has emerged on Google video. He states that it was like a foundry or "lava in a volcano". This is an extremely important piece of footage because it highlights the fact that something other than jet fuel fires, or in the case of building 7, office material fires, was responsible for the collapse of the buildings. Please take a moment to read this article.

Cop uses stun gun on student who won't show ID

UCLA Police Taser Student For Not Showing ID

This UCLA student was tasered multiple times by campus police for refusing to show his ID. Students begin to come to the aid of the student, who is clearly being tortured by the police and demand that he stand after having thousands of watts forcefully surged through his body, but they are told to stand back or they will be tased as well.



I hope it doesn't take witnessing a horrible event like this yourself before you realize the tyranny that is enveloping our society.

Regardless of whether or not this student was breaking the law, the force used was life threatening and obviously unnecessary. He was unarmed, non-threatening, and simply non-compliant. Surely not deserving of multiple taser shocks.

Call for Probe of UCLA Muslim Student Taser Incident

Reposted from: Opinion/Editorial - Ashland Daily Tidings

Anniversaries cause us to instinctively pause and reflect, just as our leg jolts forward after a well-positioned tap on the knee. In honor of our veterans — to whom we owe a debt we can never repay — the least we can do on this Veteran's Day is look back at the decisions made that sent our troops into battle, and the roles we played in those decisions. Perhaps upon reflection, our reaction may change.

The fifth anniversary of Sept. 11, 2001 served as the reflex hammer touch to the knee of American conscience. As the country attended memorials and revisited painful memories of 9/11, the reflection also opened our collective mind once again to the many unanswered questions, legitimate concerns and conflicting evidence in the official description of those events.
For us at the Daily Tidings the event served to open discussion among us about this complex subject, about the conspiracy theories that abound in Internet chats, blogs and so-called investigative reports and most importantly, the questions regarding the media's role in this ongoing issue.

A month later we have found very little we all agreed on. We especially disagree on the role of the media. Since the Tidings doesn't cover New York City, Washington, D.C. or the federal government, the ambiguity is shaded with absolution.

Nevertheless we are each members of the fourth estate, an essential conglomeration of individuals who adhere to professional guidelines, and who care passionately about this demanding and often thankless opus. With that membership — we can all agree on some level — comes a responsibility to giving the public the accurate information it needs to make informed decisions. Thus, somewhere in all the banter, we stumbled on one thing we at the Tidings' truly can agree on.

Apparently, we are not alone. Based on the results of this hallmark 2006 election, the American people are finally asking for change. They don't like our involvement in Iraq. They voted out many members of the party that put us there. Perhaps they are also ready to question the events and decisions that put us there as well. Perhaps they are ready to ask what really happened on Sept. 11.

We think so. And we call on our colleagues to join us in asking questions.
Every single American daily newspaper must demand of our congressional leaders and those in the executive branch that an independent council be formed to completely and thoroughly investigate the deaths of nearly 3,000 American citizens in the attack of 9/11 — an attack that took place on American soil.

Forget the conspiracy theories for a minute and set aside the political gamesmanship. We are a country that spent five years and $100 million investigating President Clinton. We probed the depths of the Iran-Contra scandal — a debacle that would have never come fully into the public eye had a special investigator not been appointed.

This administration has spent far more energy and time seeking the leak of Valerie Plame's identity and Barry Bonds' use of steroids than it has in fully explaining how three skyscrapers crumbled in an instant and nearly 3,000 people were killed. While an independent investigation may never fully answer every question, it will help to heal the wounds of this nation and widespread distrust of our leaders this attack has caused.

This historic tragedy ranks among the worst days in American history. We owe it to every American — but especially those who do battle on our behalf at the behest of our leaders — to spare no expense and allow no party loyalty to dissuade us. The government works for us. If it failed us, either in malfeasance or incompetence, then we must know that. If our current actions around the world are shaped by misinformation, we must know that too. Finally, if what we now believe to be true is only further proven, we would do well to hear the evidence that confirms it. If the government's version of the events of that day are absolutely true, then scrutiny will amplify that truth and lay to rest the skepticism that remains to this day.

If, however, the questions that remain serve to shed light on new information, that too serves the public. And it is the responsibility of this trusted media industry to dig, probe, investigate and uncover the truth behind government events and decisions that impact the public. On this Veterans Day, we can do no less on behalf of the brave men and women who have been sent to the Middle East based upon rationale that stems directly from the events of 9/11. While we pay homage to all veterans of the Armed Forces today, we are reminded of our duty to watch closely those leaders in the White House and Congress who make the decisions to send our troops to war.

We invite every single American daily newspaper to join us in our demand for an independent council to completely and thoroughly investigate the deaths of nearly 3,000 American citizens in the attacks of 9/11.
America will be better informed, and this is our job.

I have decided that my current schedule prevents me from having the time or ambition to update as frequently as I'd like. I've decided to have one dedicated post each week. I'm calling it the Sunday Special. I will update at other times off and on, but you're guaranteed Sunday.

So, another election has come and gone. It looks like we had a HUGE VICTORY, as Americans! HAHA! Yes, our will has been inacted and the people have spoken. Right? I don't think so.

First of all, I didn't vote in this previous election for 2 reasons. One, I am not registered to vote in the state of California and I didn't recieve an absentee ballot. Two, I am simply disgusted with our current electoral system and I have absolutely no confidence in it's ability to acurately represent the people. Our current political system is a joke. Recently, Alex Jones said it best on his daily radio broadcast.

"It's like you tell a child they have the choice to go to bed at either 8pm
or 8:30pm. Of course the child is going to pick 8:30pm. Really, you just wanted to get them to bed by 9pm."

Another good analogy is the idea of Good cop, Bad cop. The practice is simple. When law enforcement wants to get a certain response or retrieve specific information from a suspect they employ a tactic of alternating between a nice guy policeman and a bully policeman. They take turns. First the bully will abuse the suspect and demand that he answer his questions and then the nice guy will come in and try to become friends with the suspect. Both using their own tactics and the comparison of the other as a means to get what they want. In our government, at least in the last few years, you could say the same. Of course it's far more complicated than any single analogy could begin to express, but I think you get the idea.

Now, after the circus election in which they are conditioning us to accept these ridiculous voting machines, we are supposed to believe that the elections are still legitimate with all the possibilities for fraud. Honestly, I believe everything that has happened in the last 6 years shows that our election system is secondary to the will of the elite.

Why should we believe that the democrats coming into office is going to change anything. The current administration has already done so much harm to our rights. They have lied to us about a half trillion dollar war that continues for profit instead of doing what is needed for victory, passed disguting legislation that ruins the fundemental aspects of our republic, and continue to openly insult every fiber of my libery loving american soul.

And what is going to happen now? Will any of the Military Commisions Act be repealed? This legislation allows anyone, including an American citizen in America, to be charged as an Enemy Combatant and held at the will of the president with no right to a trial or representation. This is a serious breech of American Justice.

The democrats who were screaming for impeachment now say that it isn't their desire. Well, they are right about one thing. It wouldn't do any good to impeach George Bush. He's simply a puppet.

There are some serious issues taking place people! Rome wasn't built in one day and the United States of America won't become a tyrannical fear driven dictatorship in one day either.


Olbermann's the man!
