Its most enduring story concerns Geronimo, who died 00.000.1909 . According to lore, members of Skull and Bones - including the president's grandfather, Prescott Bush - dug up his grave when a group of Army volunteers from Yale were stationed at the fort during WWI.

09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/0,1518,druck-414941,00.html Gefährlich könnten jedoch die privaten Transaktionen werden: Die riesigen Geldmengen, die auf den Devisenmärkten bewegt werden, übersteigen die Mittel der internationalen Notenbanken bei weitem. Ein US-Notenbankchef wie Bernanke kann Erfolg damit haben, das Konsum- und Investitionsklima im eigenen Land hochzuhalten. Das Vertrauen der restlichen Welt in die USA kann er kaum beeinflussen.
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/0,1518,druck-414941,00.html Außerdem sitzen die Amerikaner und jene Länder, die riesige Dollar-Reserven halten, in einem Boot. Eine plötzliche Dollarabwertung würde den Yen, den Yuan und die indische Rupie nach oben treiben und den Exportboom dieser Staaten jäh beenden. Gerade deshalb haben diese Staaten ja kräftig Dollars gekauft und massive Währungsreserven aufgebaut. Die Notenbanken dieser Länder werden ihre Politik nicht einfach aufgeben wollen.
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/0,1518,druck-414941,00.html Wenn die US-Leitzinsen konstant bleiben, während diejenigen in der Euro-Zone und anderswo auf der Welt ansteigen, könnte das zu einer Verlagerung ausländischen Anlagevermögens führen. Ein plötzlicher Verkauf von US-Staatsanleihen durch Ausländer könnte allerdings einen Abwärtstaumel des Dollars einleiten. Investitionen und Konsumausgaben würden abfallen, die Blase auf dem amerikanischen Immobilienmarkt könnte platzen.
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/0,1518,druck-414941,00.html Folgen des Dollar-Sturzes - die Szenarien Ohne eine solche Richtungsänderung im amerikanischen Verhalten könnten sich weitere Gefahren aufbauen. Und damit sind wir zurück bei Ben Bernanke und der Frage: Wie lange könnten die USA ihre Bilanzdefizite und die Außenverschuldung aufrecht erhalten? Noch sind die USA als führendes Land der Weltwirtschaft in der Lage, ihre Außenhandelsdefizite mit der eigenen Währung, der Weltleitwährung Dollar, zu bezahlen. Doch plötzlich einbrechende Kapitalzuflüsse oder gar -abflüsse könnten für sie wirtschaftlich zum Verhängnis werden.
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/0,1518,druck-414941,00.html Aber sind die Defizite der US-Handels- und Leistungsbilanz tatsächlich eine tickende Zeitbombe? Optimisten glauben, die Fehlbeträge seien gar nicht so beunruhigend. Da zum Beispiel amerikanische Konzerne selbst im großen Stil im Ausland investieren, die Gewinne und Dividenden aber zurück überweisen, lasse sich der Wert des nach Amerika transferierten Faktoreinkommens auf Dauer ausreichend hoch halten. Kritische Beobachter bemühen ein anderes Argument: Sie verweisen darauf, dass Ausländer dazu neigen, das durch Dividenden + Zinsen in den USA bezogene Einkommen in ihren Heimatländern möglichst gering auszuweisen - aus steuerlichen Gründen. Die US-Leistungsbilanz ist demnach real noch viel stärker im negativen Bereich als in den offiziellen Statistiken sichtbar. Umso größer wäre das volkswirtschaftliche Risiko, wenn ausländisches Geld verstärkt von den US-Finanzmärkten abgezogen wird. Warum hat sich die US-Handelsbilanz in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten so stark verschlechtert? Die ökonomische Fachwelt diskutiert verschiedene Ursachen.
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/erde/0,1518,druck-415301,00.html Deutschen Wissenschaftlern ist es jetzt erstmals gelungen, die Geschwindigkeit dieser Attacke zu messen. Die Zellharpunen von Süßwasserpolypen der Arten Hydra magnipapillata + Hydra oligactis werden dabei mit mehr als dem Fünfmillionenfachen der Erdanziehungskraft beschleunigt, schreiben die Forscher um Thomas Holstein von der Universität Heidelberg im Fachmagazin "Current Biology". Die Nesselspitze schlage nahezu mit der Wucht einer Gewehrkugel auf.
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-415347,00.html Aber: Ein Beweis ist auch diese Behauptung nicht. Im Irak herrscht Krieg - und alle Seiten nutzen weidlich die Möglichkeiten von Propaganda und Desinformation.
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-415347,00.html
Zwischen fünf und 15 Bekennerschreiben veröffentlicht die Sarkawi-Truppe seit Monaten durchschnittlich an jedem einzelnen Tag. In den meisten davon brüsten sich die Terroristen mit Autobomben oder Sprengsätzen am Straßenrand, die sie gezündet haben - meistens sind US-Soldaten die Opfer, oft aber auch irakische Zivilisten. Das Papier legt nahe, dass diese Operationen nicht etwa das Produkt einer bewussten Strategie sind, sondern der schlichten Unfähigkeit geschuldet sind, etwas anderes auf die Beine zu stellen.
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-415347,00.html Selbstkritik oder Desinformation? Diese "Erkenntnisse" passen der US-Armee freilich ihrerseits sehr gut. Man muss das am Montag veröffentlichte Dokument deshalb unter Vorbehalt betrachten: Seine Echtheit ist nicht unabhängig zu bestätigen. Und wie viele andere, nicht veröffentlichte Papiere den US-Streitkräften in die Hände gefallen sind, die sich anders interpretieren lassen, ist unbekannt.

09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-415121,00.html 31 vor Christus war auch diese Episode zu Ende: Bei der Seeschlacht von Actium vernichtete Octavian, der spätere Kaiser Augustus, seine Gegner. Marc Anton beging Selbstmord, Kleopatra folgte ihm in den Tod - der Legende zufolge durch den Biss einer Schlange. Die Überreste der ägyptischen Pracht lagen jahrhundertelang unentdeckt auf dem Meeresboden - bis heute.
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-415121,00.html Unter Ptolemäus III., der 221 vor Christus starb, war Ägypten auf dem Höhepunkt seiner Macht. Danach ging es nur noch in eine Richtung: bergab. Der Niedergang des Nilreichs und die Herrschaft der Ptolemäer endete mit Kleopatra, die zuerst Cäsar, dann dessen Heerführer Marc Anton umgarnte - in dem größenwahnsinnigen Bemühen, ein großgriechisches Weltreich mit Alexandria als Machtzentrale zu schaffen.
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-415121,00.html Alexander der Große hatte den Kult um den Wein-, Fruchtbarkeits- und Ekstasegott Dionysos nach Ägypten gebracht, der später gar zur Hauptfigur einer neuen Staatsreligion erhoben wurde. Die griechischen Herrscher wollten die Beschwörung des Sexuellen zum Kitt für Alexandrias Multikulti-Bevölkerung machen - was allerdings ebenso auf den falschen Weg führte wie der Personenkult + die inzestuösen Beziehungen, denen sich die ptolemäischen Herrscher schon bald hingaben.

Und solche Technik ist teuer: Modern bestückte meeresarchäologische Expeditionen können leicht bis zu eine Million Euro pro Monat kosten - Geld, das die meisten universitären Forschungsinstitute nicht haben. Mit Hilfe solventer Sponsoren wie der Liechtensteiner Hilti Foundation hat Goddio nicht nur steinerne Zeugen vergangener ägyptischer Pracht aufgestöbert, sondern auch 14 historische Schiffswracks entdeckt - darunter die Galeone "San Diego", Napoleons 1798 vor Abukir versenkte Flotte und mit Porzellan beladene Dschunken im südchinesischen Meer.
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-415121,00.html Die Ausgrabung an der ägyptischen Küste ist einer der Coups, mit denen der Quereinsteiger Goddio auch in der archäologischen Fachwelt für Wirbel gesorgt hat. Knapp 500 der vielen Tausend Objekte, die Goddios Team bei zahlreichen Tauchgängen vor der Küste Ägyptens ans Tageslicht geholt hat, werden nun im Berliner Martin-Gropius-Bau präsentiert - darunter Stelen, monumentale Statuen, Schmuck und Münzen, Parfumständer und Kultgegenstände. Am Mittwoch eröffnen Bundespräsident Horst Köhler und Ägyptens Präsident Husni Mubarak die Ausstellung "Ägyptens versunkene Schätze" (13. Mai bis 4. September sonntags, montags und mittwochs 10 - 20 Uhr, donnerstags bis samstags 10 - 21 Uhr).

Die Delfine hätten ihre Köpfe dem Lautsprecher zugewandt, wenn der Pfeifton eines nahen Verwandten zu hören gewesen sei. Demnach sind Delfine die einzigen bisher bekannten Tiere, die ebenso wie Menschen untereinander Informationen über ihre Identität austauschen, folgern die Autoren. Saela Sayigh, Mitglied des Forscherteams, sagte, es schienen sich sogar zwei Delfine über einen dritten Artgenossen verständigen zu können, indem sie dessen Namen nutzen.

This isn't a problem, nor is it a problem when I get the occasional support query from someone I haven't supplied a system to, but who needs assistance. This is all well and good, but I've had pretty poor year personally. I've lost two relatives and a third is in a pretty bad way in hospital. An eleven year relationship ended a couple of months back + I'm now having to perform _all_ the domestic tasks that used to be shared. Between these few things and my regular job I'm finding I have a whole lot less time to allow to support calls. What methods do you know of for gently cutting off someone, support-wise?"

From the article: "The announcements, according to analysts briefed on them in advance, signal a shift from defense to offense in the company's mainframe strategy. Last month, I.B.M. introduced a machine priced at $100,000, about half the previous starting price for its mainframes, which can run up to several million dollars. The announcement of the low-end mainframe was made in China, which I.B.M. regards as a promising market for the machines."

From the article: 'John Wood, a British engineer who founded Multigig in 2000, devised an approach that involves sending electrical signals around square loop structures, said Haris Basit, Multigig's chief operating officer. The regular rotation works like the tick of a conventional clock, while most of the electrical power is recycled, he said.

Implementations of modularity, Trusted Computing hardware, 'separation of secrets,' and overcoming the challenge of users not reading dialog boxes, will be crucial milestones as we head on to the future. He states: "As security improves, we need to keep building things which are usable, which are turned on by default, which means understanding users is the target for the next 50 years. You don't buy a car with optional bumpers. You can have a steering wheel fitted if you like, but it comes with a spike by default."

Anticipazioni: La seduzione autoritaria
Sarà disponibile dal 15 maggio, con presentazione in anteprima alla Fiera del libro di Torino 2005 sabato 7 alle 13, il nuovo saggio di Lorenzo Guadagnucci "La seduzione autoritaria. Repressione del dissenso e diritti civili nell'Italia di oggi" . Ecco una breve scheda del libro.
Il G8 di Genova del 2001 è stato uno choc per il paese. Non si era mai vista una così plateale sospensione dello stato di diritto. Quei fatti hanno impresso un'accelerazione a un fenomeno in atto da tempo nelle democrazie occidentali: la progressiva compressione delle libertà civili, la limitazione del diritto al dissenso.

From the article: "But the computer smarts of Ron Deibert, Nart Villeneuve + Michael Hull, combined with their passion for politics and free expression, have led them to develop a highly anticipated software program that allows Internet users inside China and other countries, such as Iran, Saudi Arabia and Burma, to get around repressive censorship and not get caught."
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-415156,00.html Hayden weiß, was ihn erwartet. Im Februar hielt er eine Rede vor Air-Force-Kameraden und sinnierte fast melancholisch über die alten Feinde des Kalten Krieges. "Erinnert ihr euch noch?", sagte er. "Ich vermisse diese Tage. Diese Feinde waren einfacher zu finden."
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-415156,00.html Schwieriger wird die Argumentation zur Frage der Spitzeleien. Unter Hayden hat die NSA die Telefonate von über 5000 Amerikanern mitgeschnitten. Der General hat das jedoch schon im Dezember vor dem Kongress eloquent verteidigt. "Wir müssen das richtig hinkriegen", sagte er damals. "Wir müssen die richtige Balance finden zwischen dem Schutz unserer Sicherheit und dem Schutz unserer Freiheiten." Ähnlich geschnitzte Worte darf man demnächst auch bei seiner Senatsanhörung erwarten.

Außerdem gelte Hayden als "einer der besten Berichterstatter über Geheimdienstfragen, den sie hier je gehabt haben", ergänzt Senator Pat Roberts, der Vorsitzende des Geheimdienstausschusses.

Hayden sei kein "Liebling" von Verteidigungsminister Donald Rumsfeld. So habe sich Hayden 2004 öffentlich dem "starken Druck" Rumsfelds widersetzt, die NSA ins Pentagon einzusortieren, erinnert sich General a.D. Chuck Boyd, ein alter Mentor Haydens. "Er knickte nicht ein."
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-415156,00.html Bush kann beruhigt sein: Die Kritik wird am Ende Kanonendonner bleiben, mit dem sich die Politiker für die Kongresswahlen profilieren. Hayden dürfte unbesorgt ins Amt marschieren, trotz aller Blockadetricks der Demokraten und einer brutalen Anhörung im Senat, der ihn bestätigen muss. "Warum der ganze Wirbel?", fragte selbst die kritische "New York Times".
09.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-415156,00.html Demokraten und Bürgerrechtler stoßen sich überdies daran, dass Hayden als Leiter des Abhördienstes NSA maßgeblich für die Bespitzelung von Abertausenden Amerikanern seit dem 11. September 2001 verantwortlich zeichnete. "Der Senat darf keinen bestätigen, der das Gesetz brechen würde, um Bürger zu bespitzeln", erklärte Ralph Neas, der Chef der liberalen Gruppe People for the American Way.

Wikipedia irrt sich. Der Spruch stammt von Namensvetter Sterling Hayden, einem 1986 verstorbenen Schauspieler. Der sagte ihn, als Luftwaffengeneral Jack D. Ripper, in Stanley Kubricks Kalter-Krieg-Filmsatire "Dr. Seltsam oder: Wie ich lernte, die Bombe zu lieben". Zufälle gibt's. Wobei das Filmzitat auch auf Michael Hayden zutrifft - zumindest auf seinen jüngsten Karrieresprung. Mit Haydens Nominierung zum neuen CIA-Direktor, so hofft Präsident George W. Bush, soll nun also ein Militär den demoralisierten US-Geheimdienst auf Zack bringen, nachdem der "Zivilist" Porter Goss bei dieser Aufgabe bitter gescheitert ist. Um so dummer, dass General Hayden sofort ins Sperrfeuer geraten ist - gerade auch bei Republikanern. Deren Befürchtung: Eine militärgeführte CIA wäre dem Pentagon hörig, der letzte Puffer der Vernunft wäre dahin. Das spiegelt auch hausinterne Sorgen der CIA, die sich gerne als Gegenpol zum Militär versteht.

Russia and China, the other two permanent Security Council members, oppose such action. 09.May 2006 America's Geopolitical Nightmare and Eurasian Strategic Energy Arrangements: By drawing attention to Iraq and the obvious role oil plays in US policy today, the Bush-Cheney administration has done just that: They have drawn the world’s energy-deficit powers’ attention firmly to the strategic battle over energy and especially oil.

Demokratische und republikanische Politiker hatten die Berufung eines Zivilisten an der Spitze des CIA gefordert. Andernfalls gewinne das Militär einen zu großen Einfluss auf die Geheimdienste. Hayden sei "die falsche Person am falschen Platz zur falschen Zeit", sagte der Republikaner Pete Hoekstra, Vorsitzender des Geheimdienstausschusses im Repräsentantenhaus gestern dem TV-Sender Fox News. Ein Militärangehöriger solle derzeit keine zivile Behörde leiten, sagte Hoekstra. Das Militär habe einen anderen Blick auf die Welt und beschäftige sich mit kurzfristigen Bedrohungen.

Hayden ist seit einem Jahr Stellvertreter des nationalen Geheimdienstdirektors John Negroponte. Davor leitete er die National Security Agency (NSA). Er gilt als Architekt des umstrittenen Überwachungsprogramms, das Bush nach den Anschlägen des 11.Sep.2001 heimlich installieren ließ. Erst im 00.Dez.2005 hatte die "New York Times" aufgedeckt, dass der US-Präsident den Inlandsgeheimdienst NSA ohne Zustimmung des Kongresses autorisiert hatte, auch ohne richterliche Anordnung in den USA unbegrenzt Telefonate zu belauschen und E-Mails mitzulesen. Als Bush dafür scharf kritisiert wurde, hatte Hayden das Spitzelprogramm energisch verteidigt.
08.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-415100,00.html Washington - Wie erwartet hat Präsident George W. Bush Hayden heute als neuen Chef des Geheimdienstes CIA nominiert. Der 61-Jährige, der vom Senat bestätigt werden muss, soll die Nachfolge des am Freitag zurückgetretenen Porter Goss antreten. Bush würdigte den Militär als Mann mit außergewöhnlicher Erfahrung und außergewöhnlichen Qualitäten. Hayden sei "äußerst qualifiziert" und kenne die Geheimdienstarbeit sehr genau, erklärte Bush. Um Bedenken wegen einer weiteren Militarisierung der Geheimdienste zu zerstreuen, soll die Nummer zwei der CIA, Vizeadmiral Albert Calland, nach weniger als einem Jahr seinen Posten aufgeben, verlautete aus Regierungskreisen.

Besonders in feuilletonistischen Kommentaren zu Politik und Zeitgeschehen ist das Bild beliebt.
08.May 2006 https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teufelspakt Unter Teufelspakt verstehen Teufelsgläubige ein Bündnis zwischen dem Teufel und einem Menschen (dem „Teufelsbündler”). Dabei verschreibt der Mensch dem Teufel seine Seele für die Zeit nach seinem Tod. Als Gegenleistung hilft der Teufel diesem Menschen bei verschiedenen Zaubereien oder Hexereien, die aufgrund des vorausgegangenen Teufelspaktes in den Bereich der so genannten schwarzen Magie einzuordnen sind. Der Teufelspakt stellt eines der vier wichtigsten Elemente dar, die erfüllt sein mussten, um einen Menschen nach der frühneuzeitlichen Hexenlehre als Hexe oder Hexenmeister verurteilen zu können.

08.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-414959,00.html Kritik am Kurs im Irak - Politiker aller Parteien forderten am Wochenende zudem mehr Klarheit über die künftige Irak-Politik der Regierung Blair. Der sicherheitspolitische Sprecher der Konservativen Partei, Andrew Mercer, sagte, die Regierung solle endlich deutlich machen, "in welche Richtung unsere Politik im Irak geht und was die Mission unserer Truppen im Irak ist". Nick Harvey von der Liberaldemokratischen Partei forderte "eine klare Exit-Strategie" für den Einsatz im Irak.
08.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-414959,00.html Es müsste eine Politik erarbeitet werden, die den Menschen Sicherheit und Wohlstand gebe. "Am Ende geht es eigentlich nicht um Persönlichkeiten und Einzelpersonen", sagte Brown. Er bekräftigte aber seine Auffassung, dass Labour eine innere Erneuerung nötig habe, um enttäuschte Wähler zurückzugewinnen.
08.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-414959,00.html Der am Freitag berufene neue britische Innenminister, John Reid, sieht Blair mittlerweile als Opfer eines linken Putsches, berichtet BBC. Reid warnte eindringlich vor einem "Desaster", falls die Forderungen des linken Labour-Flügels Erfolg haben sollten, die Reformen gestoppt und und die Arbeiterpartei wieder zu "old Labour" werden sollte. Blairs designierter Nachfolger, Schatzkanzler Gordon Brown, wies Rücktrittsforderungen vehement zurück. "Wir können es nicht gebrauchen, dass Ausreißer die Agenda bestimmen", sagte er gestern dem Rundfunksender BBC. Einen Termin für den Rücktritt zu nennen, sei allein Blairs Angelegenheit.
08.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-414959,00.html Die guten Leistungen von Labour würden von den "anhaltenden und lähmenden Spekulationen über die zukünftige Spitze und Richtung der Partei" überschattet, heißt es laut BBC in dem Brief. Die Übergabe der Macht solle "würdig, geordnet und effektiv" gestaltet werden. Eine solche Erklärung werde "die Verbindung zwischen unserer Partei und der britischen Bevölkerung erneuern", zitierte die Zeitung "The Sunday Telegraph" Auszüge aus dem Schreiben. Das Nationale Exekutiv-Komitee der Partei solle dazu bis zum Sommer einen Zeitplan vorstellen.
08.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-414959,00.html Dann verfassten auch noch 52 Abgeordnete der Labour-Partei einen Brief, in dem sie den Premierminister aufforderten, einen Termin für seinen Rücktritt zu nennen. "So lange Tony Blair weiter Premierminister bleibt, wird sich Labours Lage nicht ändern", sagte der Abgeordnete Frank Dobson gestern der BBC. "Im Moment ist er ein Problem für uns." "Es besteht jetzt wirklich Bedarf für eine Veränderung an der Spitze", sagte Geraldine Smith.

But how did the rot set in? And will this unique heritage survive? -By JAMES GRAFF / LASCAUX For more than 17,000 years, the bestiary of the Lascaux cave in southwestern France has survived the ravages of human history. Anyone entering this time capsule is confronted by 4-m-long bulls that appear to float across the massive vaults like religious apparitions. An enigmatic spotted beast with a round snout and straight, forward-pointing horns, plump horses in brilliant yellow and deer with treelike antlers — all seem in equal part intimates of the present and missives from some distant world. Which they are. Though the draftsmanship is strikingly Modernist — on exiting the cave in 1940, Pablo Picasso said, "We have invented nothing" — these creatures were painted and inscribed on the limestone walls during the Upper Paleolithic age, when everyone was a hunter-gatherer + Homo sapiens coexisted with Neanderthal man. They are evidence of the quantum leap in neural connections that gave birth to the uniquely human attribute of consciousness. Lascaux is the most fundamental example anywhere of what the iconoclastic 20th century writer and anthropologist Georges Bataille called "the basic desire of all men, of whatever period or region, to be amazed." Like few other creations of the human hand, it is a patrimony not of any one country or culture, but of humankind as a whole.

08.May 2006 https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/ many readers sigh and arch their eyebrows whenever the name Wayne Madsen comes up, but in this case, we really must mention his work, since he worked on a book about the Millis case. Madsen's take certainly deserves a reading -- but do keep that proverbial grain of salt handy: 11.May 2006 a few weeks prior to his death, Millis authored a report on the CIA alleged links to cocaine smuggling by Nicaraguan drug rings to gangs in Los Angeles. Although the HPSCI report, like previous reports by the CIA and Justice Department, cleared the CIA of any wrongdoing, some informed observers believe that Millis may have actually written a different version of the report that was more critical of the CIA involvement in drug trafficking and that he may have been silenced because he knew too much. Millis was considered by some CIA officials to be constantly wishing to re-invent the wheel on CIA intelligence activities.
Former White House counsel and Clinton confidant Charles Ruff was reportedly briefed on HPSCI findings by Millis. Ruff died on November 20, 2000. His body was found outside a shower in his home by his wife. Police ruled the death as resulting from natural causes and not foul play. It was later determined that Ruff suffered an apparent heart attack. HPSCI ranking member Representative Julian Dixon, who was also briefed on the HPSCI cocaine report, died suddenly from a heart attack on December 8, 2000, a few weeks after Ruff death.
There is also some reason to believe that Millis was unhappy with Goss reluctance to investigate the CIA handling or mishandling of alleged Mossad penetration of the White House communications system and its failure to investigate the identity of Israel alleged high-level U.S. government mole, the so-called Mega. Goss reportedly said he was concerned that Israel had penetrated White House communications but he did not want to pursue any investigation of the matter. Goss once remarked to a congressional colleague that if anyone took a look at his Florida district, his reluctance to criticize Israel would be totally understandable. (Emphasis added; "HPSCI" refers to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.)
In the past, I've drawn attention to the fact that Mitchell Wade's MZM supplied "furniture" to the White House + I've theorized that said furnishings came equipped with bugging equipment. Nobody has offered a better suggestion as to why a defense and intelligence contractor would get a gig like that.
08.May 2006 https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/ Millis, like Goss, had a CIA background. At first, the two men got on well; eventually, they clashed over Millis' close relations with the press. According to Insight , Millis' widow claimed that her husband had an affair with another man -- an assertion which gains new resonance in light of the current "Fornigate" scandal.
But some congressional and CIA sources say Goss has personal reasons to want the circumstances surrounding the suicide to be kept under wraps. While acknowledging there was no harm done to national security, they argue that Millis' death is deserving of public analysis if for no other reason than it might have been avoided. They contend that the congressman mishandled Millis before the suicide and that Goss, who has ambitions to succeed Tenet at the CIA in a George W. Bush administration, has no wish for his poor management to be advertised. More: In the week leading up to his suicide, Millis remained in his Capitol Hill office and stayed in daily contact with committee members, aides and the press. Several administration officials, CIA officers and reporters, including one from Insight, who talked with him on the phone days before the suicide, have noted that he seemed tired but talked about upcoming committee work. "He didn't seem depressed or anything but he did appear to want to talk," says a former CIA agent. "In fact, in hindsight he struck me as a bit lonely. I couldn't get him off the phone and I had to be rude almost." Millis appears to have angered Goss when the former gave a public speech in which he offered a scathing critique of the American intelligence community.
07.May 2006 The Porter Goss story becomes even weirder I have to thank Xymphora for directing our attention to the strangest Porter Goss tale of all: The unusual June 4, 2000 "suicide" -- if suicide it was -- of John Millis, the staff director of the House Intelligence Committee, which was chaired by then-congressman Goss. Prof. Hex at 10:30 PM Porter & 'the boys': Goss Made His "Bones" on CIA Hit Team Deposed CIA head Porter Goss was once a member of the CIA's super-secret Operation 40, an assassination squad which roamed through North and Central America during the 1960's.

26.Jun.2004 20.May 1953 In his memorandum -dated- Smith noted that the CIA had reached an agreement with Qashqai tribal leaders in southern Iran to establish a clandestine safe haven from which US-funded guerrillas + intelligence agents could operate. "To date CIA has trained + equipped a total of approximately 10 indigenous clandestine radio operators to be located throughout Iran + who can be called upon to maintain communications with CIA when desired," Smith wrote. "Others are being trained." Stockpiles of weapons and ammunition were being secretly assembled at Wheelus Field, an air base in Libya used at that time by the US Air Force. Smith reported that the base already had enough war materiel to equip a 10,000-strong guerrilla force and allow it to operate independently for at least six months. Other supply bases were being established in Tripoli, the Suez Canal zone and the US state of New Jersey. "These supplies could, within three to four weeks, be transported by air and sea to certain strong tribal elements in southern Iran," the undersecretary of state assured. Reception points for this materiel were being set up in the Tehran + Tabriz areas, along with secret caches of gold + currency, while the CIA drew plans for forming eight, three-person teams to run its secret guerrilla army The plan also called for deploying several dozen additional US warplanes to southern Turkey + positioning a naval force of an undetermined size in the vicinity of the Iraqi southern city of Basra to create a barrier to "the spread of communist power." In addition, the US government was determined to seek access to the Saudi military base in Dhahran "as a transit point in connection with contemplated US covert operations," Smith wrote.

The top secret papers, produced in late 1952 and 1953 by the State Department and the National Security Council, provide proof that the widely-known US-British efforts to destabilize the government of prime minister Mossadegh were backed up by broad contingency plans that called for bolstering US military presence in the region and launching an anti-communist guerrilla force in the south of Iran. The Mossadegh government, which drew the ire of Washington and London because of its persistent attempts to increase control over the country's oil resources, was toppled in an August 19, 1953, coup led by US-backed general Fazlollah Zahedi who allowed pro-American Shah Reza Pahlavi to return from exile. US officials have grudgingly acknowledged that the coup had become possible due to CIA ( news - web sites )-designed Operation "Ajax" that helped plunge Iran into chaos and paved the way for Mossadegh's downfall.

08.May 2006 https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/ But one problem I can see is video surveillance. Here in L.A., most motels have cameras covering the courtyard.
Maybe that's one reason why certain "sleazy" motels are chosen. Maybe the place is too chintzy to buy a camera. Or...maybe someone on the inside owns the motel. Maybe that's why the room was cleaned up THAT VERY NIGHT, before the cops could have a chance to dust for prints.

"According to Fairfax City Police reports, a 911 call was received by their dispatchers at 8:12 p.m. on June 4 from a man who said he had just got off the phone with Millis. The caller told police that Millis was very depressed and had said to him, "It will be just one loud bang and it will all be over."
Keep the 8:12 "panic call" in mind. BTW, suicides are usually a bit happy for some time prior once they've made their decision. I hear. Why bother with the note he left if he was also going to call someone?
"According to the report, a woman staying in room 30 heard a loud bang at approximately 7:45 p.m. Police Lt. Donald Poore cites that as the reason for the officers' decision to enter Millis' room uninvited, though as a precaution they decided to use ballistic shields, helmets and bulletproof vests."
Sure, make it look good. And oh, so the very worried emergency call about suicide intent came in at 8:12 but the gunshot went off at 7:45? I see.
"According to Sean Burke, an FBI spokesman, that agency also was informed of the death by Fairfax City Police on June 4. "They contacted us and we called them back and said, `In the event that any classified documents are found, or anything else like that, please call us,'" Burke says."
Oh hey, if ya find anything classified just let us know? https://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1571/is_30_16/ai_64426325/pg_2

08.May 2006 https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/ Although most comentators suspect that Goss had sampled the wares at these "hooker" parties, I have suggested that this old CIA hand may have masterminded the operation, in order to gain blackmail material. More than one person has suggested that both male and female prostitutes played a role. (See this Kos post: "It's the GAY hookers, stupid!")
08.May 2006 https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/ In other news... Daniel Hopsicker uncovered a 1963 nightclub photograph (taken in Mexico City) which depicts Porter Goss alongside Barry Seal, William Seymour, Frank Sturgis, Felix Rodriguez and other Agency luminaries. That period of Goss' life remains shadowy; Hopsicker does his best to shine a little light on the scene.

# Anonymous : 9:17 PM A little discussed fact about Porter Goss is that on the morning of 9/11/01 he was having breakfast with the head of Pakistan's ISI who had earlier wired Mohammed Atta $100,000 to help finance Big Wedding I.
The wheels are starting to come off the official government version of the events of that day and I would not be surprised if Goss' surprise departure is not also linked to pending revelations about his involvement in 9/11.# James : 11:52 PM Post a Comment

Special Reports FBI agents lied about what they wanted from Jack Anderson's papers -By Wayne Madsen
The FBI agents who, in December, approached Olivia Anderson, the widow of deceased investigative reporter Jack Anderson and more recently, in March, author + researcher Mark Feldstein, who is writing a book about Jack Anderson, were interested in far more than the names of sources in the America-Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) espionage case. That explanation by the FBI did not hold any water since Jack Anderson had not been active in pursuing that particular story -- he had suffered from Parkinson's Disease since 00.000.1986 .

Depending on the scope of use, mythmaking in imperialism can be a powerful instrument to rewrite history and influence issues of war and peace. Take for example the U.S. (and other imperialist states including Israel) mythmaking on the extent of Nazi violence. Immediately after the demise of the Third Reich, the ideologically motivated elevation of Nazism to a “universal” symbol of atrocities has acquired an ever-inflating mythological dimension.

07.May 2006 https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/ Final questions: Did the Insight story -- which hints at a deeper scandal -- function as a "shot across the bow"?

Is that how Moon is able to garner high-powered political endorsement for such dubious enterprises as "Take down the cross day"? Does blackmail explain how the Korean Messiah achieved his "crowning" in the Senate office building? And does this older scandal impact the current controversy over the Goss resignation?

The US, UK, France, Germany, Russia, China and Japan will become world’s nuclear filling stations. Continue 07.May 2006 The Real Oil Story: The Oil in Iraq -By Walter Simpson
Oil is pretty slippery stuff. The press is playing up $3 a gallon gasoline, record oil company profits, and the $400 million retirement package for Exxon’s former CEO. But these stories are trivial compared to the oil story they have ignored all along. Continue

Es ist jedenfalls nicht so sicher, dass die Apathie marktgesellschaftlicher Alternativlosigkeiten und die Domestizierung des - auch akademischen - Subproletariats auf ewig anhalten.

Erfolgreicher politischer Protest wird, wie wir aus der Geschichte wissen, in aller Regel von anderen sozialen Gruppen initiiert und angeführt.
07.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/debatte/0,1518,druck-414888,00.html Die neuen Unterschichten der Überflüssigen haben allerdings nichts davon: Keine kollektive Zusammengehörigkeit, kein Selbstbewusstsein, keine Idee von sich selbst, keine Potentiale für Organisation, für politische Projekte und für disziplinierte, langfristige Aktionen. Sie mögen in Zeiten weiterer sozialer Verschlechterung zum Treibsand und Resonanzboden für strohfeuerartig aufflammende Affekte gegen "die Reichen da oben" taugen, aber sie werden schwerlich zu einem zielbewussten politischen Träger organisierten Protests.
07.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/debatte/0,1518,druck-414888,00.html Einige Sozialwissenschaftler charakterisieren das dauerarbeitslose Neuproletariat gar als Klasse der "Überflüssigen" oder der "Verlorenen". Dieses Kennzeichen der Überflüssigkeit und Verlorenheit hat es in der Industriegesellschaft über 140 Jahre kaum einmal gegeben. Denn anders als die vorindustriellen Unterschichten war die moderne Arbeiterklasse für die kapitalistische Produktion und Mehrwertgewinnung lange Zeit elementar. Daher war die gewerbliche Arbeiterklasse auch, gewissermaßen von 1870 bis 1970, stark, hatte Selbstbewusstsein, besaß Organisationsfähigkeit, brachte kluge, ehrgeizige, über den Status Quo hinausstrebende Anführer mit ambitionierten Zukunftsideen hervor. Treibsand und Revolte

Doch ist mit einem aktiven, konstanten, zielorientierten, organisationsgestützten Protest der neuen Unterschichten zur Wendung dieses trostarmen Schicksals kaum zu rechnen.
07.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/debatte/0,1518,druck-414888,00.html Sie fühlen sich entbehrlich, durch Arbeitsagenturen gedemütigt, ohne die geringsten sozialen Mobilitäts- und Aufstiegschancen, die einst sowohl den sozialen Katholizismus als auch der sozialistischen Arbeiterbewegung - also den Traditionsvorläufern der gegenwärtigen großkoalitionären Regierungsparteien - programmatische Leitidee war. Man muss diesen vergangenen sozialmoralischen Großgeflechten nicht sentimental hinterher trauern. Sie haben schließlich die Gesellschaft lange ideologisch aufgeladen und dadurch politisch-kulturell belastet. Aber ihr weltanschaulich gestütztes und durchwirktes Organisationsgeflecht war die Basis für die Integration verschiedener Generationen und verschiedener Klassen.

Auch das durchaus noch reiche Deutschland ist in diesem Prozess keine Oase einer sozial befriedete Gesellschaft geblieben. Etliche hunderttausend Bundesbürger drängen Tag für Tag in die Suppenküchen der Wohlfahrtsverbände. Über ein Zehntel der Deutschen lebt in ständiger Armut. Die oberen zwei % der bundesrepublikanischen Haushalte verfügen über 30 % des Gesamtvermögens; die unteren 50 % müssen sich mit knapp fünf % begnügen. Und die ökonomischen Eliten haben sich mehr und mehr von ihrer gesellschaftlichen Verantwortung verabschiedet. Zum Ende der Adenauergesellschaft betrug der Anteil der Gewinnsteuern am steuerlichen Gesamtaufkommen noch mehr als ein Drittel; derzeit sind es kaum mehr 15 %. Man liebt und heiratet wieder unter sich
07.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/debatte/0,1518,druck-414888,00.html Die Trennung zwischen Reich und Arm in der deutschen Gesellschaft verschärft sich. Doch die dauerarbeitslose Schicht der "Überflüssigen" ist orientierungslos und ohne Selbstbewusstsein. Eine Revolte, so sie denn kommt, wird von den Deklassierten der Wissensgesellschaft angeführt werden. Die "Wissensgesellschaft", von der alle reden, ist eine schöne Sache. Sie eröffnet neue Chancen, aufregende Perspektiven, erlebnisreiche Räume, zusätzliche Optionen - allerdings lediglich für diejenigen, die über Bildung, Wissen, Kompetenz, Kontakte verfügen. Zwar leidet bekanntermaßen derzeit auch die "Generation Praktikum" an den Unwägbarkeiten des Übergangs von der Universität in eine vergleichbar fest kalkulierbare berufliche Anstellung, doch insgesamt sind diejenigen mit akademischem Zertifikat unzweifelhaft die Gewinner der deregulierten Wissensgesellschaft. Wissen, so bilanzieren es nüchtern etliche soziologische Befunde, beschleunigt und vertieft die Polarisierung in der Gesellschaft. Polarisierung ist überhaupt der Begriff, mit dem man in den nächsten Jahren, wahrscheinlich Jahrzehnten die postindustrielle Gesellschaft beschreiben wird. In der spätindustriellen Gesellschaft - bis etwa Mitte der 1970er Jahre - hatten die Polaritäten noch deutlich abgenommen. Die Schichten nivellierten sich zwar nicht, aber die Spannung zwischen ihnen wurden sozialstaatlich eingehegt, die großen Differenzen gemildert, Ungleichheiten stärker reduziert. Doch mittlerweile sind die klassischen Ungleichheitserfahrungen mit Aplomb - und weltweit - zurückgekehrt. 20 % der Weltbevölkerung ist unterernährt; das oberste eine % verfügt über ebenso viel Einkommen wie die unteren 57 %. Der Besitz der drei reichsten Menschen übertrifft das Bruttosozialprodukt der 48 ärmsten Länder. Der frühere CDU-Generalsekretär Heiner Geißler nannte diesen Zustand unlängst einen Exzess. Und der Exzess wird weitergehen. Seriöse Prognosen gehen davon aus, dass zur Mitte des 21. Jahrhunderts die Hälfte der großstädtischen Bevölkerung dieser Welt in Slums leben dürfte.

He heads a network of Israeli educational institutions called Mekor Chaim and outreach programs in the U.S., the former Soviet Union, Great Britain and Australia. He is also a past recipient of the Israel Prize. The Sanhedrin was reestablished last October in Tiberias, the place of its last meeting 1,600 years ago. Since then, it has met in Jerusalem on a monthly basis.

Rabbi Hillel Weiss, spokesman for the burgeoning Sanhedrin, said in an official statement that because of "concerns that external pressure would be brought to bear upon individuals not to take part in the establishment of a Sanhedrin, the names of most participants have been withheld up to this point." "The increasingly anti-Jewish decisions handed down by the Supreme Court prove the need for an alternative legal system based on Jewish sources," said Weiss. "More and more people, including Torah scholars, are beginning to understand this." In addition to the election of Steinsaltz, the rabbis present also chose a seven-man committee, headed by him, to campaign for the acceptance of the idea of a Sanhedrin.

07.May 2006 Venezuela: Proteste oder Oppositionsstrategie Anna Krämer
Einige Ereignisse haben in den letzten Tagen in Caracas und anderen größeren Städten Venezuelas zu Protesten der Opposition geführt. Auslöser war die Nachricht über die Ermordung der vor einem Monat entführten Söhne des kanadisch-venezolanischen Geschäftsmannes Faddoul und deren Chauffeurs. Die drei Jungen und der Chauffeur waren vor circa einem Monat auf dem Weg von der Schule nach Hause bei einer vermeintlichen Polizeikontrolle entführt worden. Der Fall hat besonders deswegen für Aufsehen gesorgt, weil vermutet wird, dass Polizisten in die Entführung verwickelt sind. Die Nachricht vom Tod der Entführten war Auslöser für Proteste und Straßenblockaden von einigen hunderten von Menschen. Die Meldung von BBC und Reuters, dass gegen die Demonstranten Tränengas eingesetzt worden sei, wurde durch die venezolanischen Medien nicht bestätigt.

Zudem wird erwartet, dass der Motorisierungsgrad von heute weltweit 12 auf 15 % ansteigen wird.

Beg to differ. Listed in the above addy as class of 1960, one Jonathan Dimitri Negroponte. Your confusing the stories related to Porter Goss not being a Skull and Bones, he is actually Book andSnake, class included Washington Post writer, Bob Woodward, Les Aspin, + Nicholas Brady, class of 1960 as well.
07.May 2006 https://blogcritics.org/archives/2006/05/06/135036.php Good that you're discussing such stuff, but I've got to correct you about one thing: Negroponte is not Skull & Bones. I do have an interesting group photo of the Yale Fence Club with both Negroponte and Goss together in it. The've worked together in many escapades over the years in Mexico, Guatemala, San Salvador, Nicaragua, mixing up with Poppy Bush in such places as Cuba + Dealey Plaza.
A case of familiarity breeding contempt?
BTW, other Yalies include: Alito, Libby, McCallum, ass't Att0rney Gen (same yr Skull & Bones as W), William Donaldson (Skull & Bones), recent head of SEC. Even Cheney spent a few terms at Yale, but had to drop out with low grades (but he comes from a multi-generation Yale Skull & Bones family). Other notorious S&B names include Kellogg, Brown and Root.
07.May 2006 https://blogcritics.org/archives/2006/05/06/135036.php And if General Hayden gets it instead, then the mystery only deepens. Who is leading whom and what better way to be in control of all, than to be truly in control of the watch and the dog? A born again politicist + humorist to boot. Texan by nature and birth as well, Nationalist by choice and design. Like this article? + del.icio.us | + TailRank
07.May 2006 https://blogcritics.org/archives/2006/05/06/135036.php Back to my question: So why step down a notch? Is it possible that Bush needs a shepherd to steer a small part of the flock on a path to watch the other shepherds? Could it be that by stepping down a notch, Negroponte is actually stepping up three notches? Why not? Goering did it when Hitler needed him to. Having been the Reichstag parliament's president, he stepped back to be a General + later, Wikipedia notes, He became Commander-in-Chief of Forschungsamt ("FA"), the Nazi underground monitoring services for telephone and radio communications. This was connected to SS, SD and Abwehr intelligence services. Sounds like CIA to me + you? Goering headed the Daddy of all watchdog intelligence groups in the Nazi regime + according to Wikipedia, became:
"...the highest figure in the Nazi Hierarchy who had authorized on paper the 'final solution of the Jewish Question', when he issued a memo to SS Obergruppenführer Reinhard Heydrich to organize the practical details," (which culminated in the Wannsee Conference). He wrote, "submit to me as soon as possible a general plan of the administrative material + financial measures necessary for carrying out the desired final solution of the Jewish question." It is almost certain however that Hitler issued a verbal order to Göring in the fall of 1941 to this effect." He later made this infamous statement at the Nuremberg trials that rings a little too chillingly close to home and the current war we are in now: Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy + it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism + exposing the country to greater danger. I am by no means the first writer to highlight the so-called Bush/ Nazi comparisons, yet, to-date, this is one of the most striking developments. Is Negroponte Bush's Goering?
07.May 2006 https://blogcritics.org/archives/2006/05/06/135036.php Negroponte has served in one government post or another since graduating Yale 00.000.1960 . This is the same Yale GW and GWH Bush attended, with a membership in the same Skull and Bones secret society that father and son belong to; the same secret society that is purported to cull and groom those wealthy and connected students at an early age to groom into our nation's leaders. This is a society with an alumni list that reads like a who's who in American power structure: Names like Taft, Weyerhaeuser, Goodyear, Sloan, Rockefeller. 00.000.1932 Prescott Sheldon Bush, GW's grandfather, sat on the Union Banking Corp. board of Directors, along with six other Skull and Bones members, two of which were German Nazis, H.J. Kouwenhoven + Johann Groninger. This group led the banking interests that financed Adolf Hitler & the USSR. Please do not take my word for it; read for yourself. The Union Banking Corp. was founded by George Herbert Walker, GW's great grandfather, who was a, you guessed it, Skull and Bones member.
07.May 2006 https://blogcritics.org/archives/2006/05/06/135036.php No one has or will argue that last statement. No one of course, except Bill O'Reilly and the other talking puppets of the GOP. These guys have already started a feeding frenzy to slant this as a "bad boy, go to your room" adventure on the part of Goss. A little background on John Demitri Negroponte from Wikipedia: He is considered a controversial figure by some because of his involvement in the covert funding of the Contras + the cover up of human rights abuses carried out by CIA-trained operatives in Honduras in the 00.000.1980 s. According to The New York Times, Negroponte carried out "the covert strategy of the Reagan administration to crush the Sandinista government in Nicaragua." + is a career diplomat currently serving as Director of National Intelligence for the USA.

07.May 2006 https://www.reason.com/hitandrun/2004/08/repressing_eliz.shtml One of the more interesting details in Loftus work on the malleability of memory: In an extra-credit homework assignment...Loftus’ students [at University of California-Irvine] went home + said to younger siblings things as simple as “Hey, do you remember the time you got lost in the mall when you were 5 years old?” and then recorded the ways in which the “memory” would take on a life of its own in the succeeding days, becoming more vivid, more detailed, with each conversation. At a more advanced level, using research subjects in a lab, students successfully created memories of mildly traumatic childhood experiences — such as being temporarily separated from one’s parents — that never actually occurred. One student even managed to generate a series of false memories in her research subjects about being licked on the ear by a Pluto character while visiting Disneyland decades earlier. In another experiment, to make sure they were dealing with false recollections rather than real ones, research assistants created memories about meeting Bugs Bunny at Disneyland, who, in reality, couldn’t possibly have been in the theme park. The purpose of these mind games is to show that even the most vivid memory is not necessarily an accurate representation of past reality.

07.May 2006 https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/ Election fraud We haven't been covering the issue as we ought, but Brad Friedman continues to demonstrate his commanding knowledge of the topic. In a nutshell, here's what's going on: Compu-vote "glitches" keep appearing in election after election. These "glitches" receive local news coverage. Few people put together the big picture.
07.May 2006 https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/ The pattern. Nobody has pointed it out yet, but the Katrina rebuilding scandal and the Wilkes scandal follow the same template.
1. A company run by "connected" individuals donates to the G.O.P.
2. Said company receives huge government contracts.
3. The company has a subcontractor do the actual labor. The subcontractor charges a lot less than the "parent" company charged the taxpayers.
4. A percentage of the profits from this scam are recycled into Republican war chests.

07.May 2006 https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/ Consider: Last month, the British Foreign Secretary, Jack Straw, told BBC Radio that it was "inconceivable" that Britian would support a strike against Iran. Tony Blair refused to back his Secretary, offered a statement of support for the Bush position -- and then canned Jack Straw. From the Guardian: His fate was sealed when the White House called Mr Blair and asked why the foreign secretary kept saying these things. In any case, Mr Straw had boxed himself in on Iran to the extent that he would have had to resign if a military strike became a reality. Obviously, firm plans for a strike are a reality. If the administration's war plans were just a ploy to raise oil prices (one oft-heard theory), Straw would maintain his position.
Although I think Xymphora has been, well, a pig-headed fool on this issue, this paragraph is worth a study: The Americans would have to do something to protect the flow of oil. The only possible thing to do is the thing that bombing is supposed to replace, boots on the ground. Iran has two to three times the population of Iraq, a much more challenging geography, and has not been weakened, like Iraq, by years of sanctions. The 150,000 troops in Iraq weren’t sufficient, so how many troops would be required for Iran? 500,000? How many more American troops would be required in Iraq due to Iranian-arranged attacks against them there? How much would it all cost? Some multiple of the one to two trillion that the attack on Iraq will cost. The USA has neither the troops nor the money to follow through on the occupation required after the bombing. On top of all that, the world can’t do without the Iranian oil that would be removed from the market due to sabotage during the occupation (just look at what’s happening in Iraq). Big Wedding II will mollify world opinion + will justify both a new draft and the expenditure

May 06.2006 HAYDEN MUST NOT BE DCI Digby found the damning quotes: At a public appearance, Bush's pointman in the Office of National Intelligence was asked if the NSA was wiretapping Bush's political enemies. When Hayden dodged the question, the questioner repeated, "No, I asked, are you targeting us and people who politically oppose the Bush government, the Bush administration? Not a fishing net, but are you targeting specifically political opponents of the Bush administration?" Hayden looked at the questioner + after a silence called on a different questioner. (Hayden National Press Club remarks, 1/23/06) In this exchange, the questioner forced Hayden to drop the masquerade about spying on terrorists. In his silence, he as much as admitted that the American intelligence community goes after anyone who doesn't like Bush. You and me.
We must do everything we can to assure that "the silence of Hayden" becomes famous. Video must exist. Every Democrat should work to assure that this man receives the most uncomfortable grilling that any political appointee has ever undergone.
07.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-414883,00.html Abseits der sachlichen Gründe ließ Bush jedoch durchblicken, dass die persönliche Beziehung zu Merkel für ihn erheblich zur Widerannäherung beider Staaten beigetragen hat. "Ich war sehr fasziniert davon, einer sehr starken Frau zu begegnen, die in einem kommunistischen Land groß geworden ist. [. . .] Ich habe sie gefragt, wie es war als Kind dort aufzuwachsen. Interessanterweise hat sie zunächst ihren Vater und ihre Mutter beschrieben. Das hat mir viel darüber gesagt, was für ein Mensch sie ist."
07.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-414883,00.html Mit der Entwicklung zeigte sich Bush zufrieden: "Denken sie nur daran, dass vergangenen Dezember 12 Millionen Menschen gewählt haben. So viele sind trotz Einschüchterung und Bedrohung zu den Urnen gegangen."
07.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-414883,00.html Er zeigte sich dankbar für die Unterstützung der Bundesregierung bei der Hilfe beim Wiederaufbau sowie für den vom damaligen Bundeskanzler Gerhard Schröder erwirkten Schuldenerlass. "Alle diese Gesten sind bedeutend", sagte Bush. "Sie zeigen, dass die Deutschen - obwohl sie mit der Entscheidung, in den Irak zu gehen, nicht einverstanden waren - heute der Auffassung sind, dass der Erfolg der Demokratie im Irak von großer Bedeutung ist."
07.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-414883,00.html
Gleichwohl sieht er auch heute noch keine Alternative zu der von den USA initiierten Militärintervention: "Ich habe meine Entscheidung damals in dem vollen Bewusstsein getroffen, dass man Bedrohungen begegnen muss, bevor sie Realität würden. Und ich war mir sehr im Klaren darüber, dass nicht jeder mit mir übereinstimmen würde."
07.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-414883,00.html Berlin - "Ich habe langsam erkannt, dass es in der Natur der deutschen Bevölkerung ist, dass sie Krieg verabscheuen", sagte Bush der "Bild am Sonntag" auf die Frage, ob die USA sich von den Deutschen im Krieg gegen Saddam Hussein im Stich gelassen fühlten. Die Deutschen würden einfach keinen Krieg mögen, egal, wo sie sich innerhalb des politischen Spektrums befänden. "Und das kann ich auch verstehen", sagte der Präsident. Es gebe eine Generation von Menschen, deren Leben wegen eines schrecklichen Krieges völlig aus den Fugen geraten sei.
07.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/erde/0,1518,druck-414467,00.html Die Gefahr, dass Tigermücken in Europa tropische Krankheiten wie Dengue, Gelbfieber oder Chikungunya übertragen, hält Jäger für sehr gering. "Es ist zu kalt", sagte er im Gespräch mit SPIEGEL ONLINE. Die Mücken bräuchten hohe Temperaturen von mehr als 25 Grad, um sich effizient ausbreiten zu können. Optimal seien 30 Grad. Zudem seien die Mücken keine natürlichen Virenträger - sie müssten sich vielmehr immer wieder neu bei Menschen infizieren.
07.May 2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/erde/0,1518,druck-414467,00.html Auch in Südeuropa hat sich die Tigermücke bereits eingenistet - eine Überträgerin gefährlicher Krankheiten. Die Tigermücke belegt auf schmerzhafte Weise, wie kleine Tiere viel größeren Lebewesen das Leben unheimlich schwer machen können - in diesem Fall dem Menschen. Die Insekten der Art Aedes albipictus leben normalerweise in den Tropen. In Schiffscontainern reisen sie jedoch um die Welt und haben neue Lebensräume erobert, etwa den Süden der USA.

Even until quite recently, it was sometimes difficult for people to see themselves as victims of the conquests of Empire. But now local struggles have begun to see their role with increasing clarity. However grand it might sound, the fact is, they are confronting Empire in their own, very different ways. Differently in Iraq, in South Africa, in India, in Argentina + differently, for that matter, on the streets of Europe and the USA.
07.May 2006 https://www.democracynow.org/static/Arundhati_Trans.shtml
For poor people in many countries, Empire does not always appear in the form of cruise missiles and tanks, as it has in Iraq or Afghanistan or Vietnam. It appears in their lives in very local avatars - losing their jobs, being sent unpayable electricity bills, having their water supply cut, being evicted from their homes and uprooted from their land. All this overseen by the repressive machinery of the state, the police, the army, the judiciary. It is a process of relentless impoverishment with which the poor are historically familiar. What Empire does is to further entrench and exacerbate already existing inequalities.

07.May 2006 https://www.democracynow.org/static/Arundhati_Trans.shtml In India, the word public is now a Hindi word. It means people. In Hindi, we have sarkar and public, the government and the people. Inherent in this use is the underlying assumption that the government is quite separate from "the people." This distinction has to do with the fact that India's freedom struggle, though magnificent, was by no means revolutionary. The Indian elite stepped easily and elegantly into the shoes of the British imperialists. A deeply impoverished, essentially feudal society became a modern, independent nation state. Even today, fifty seven years on to the day, the truly vanquished still look upon the government as mai-baap, the parent + provider. The somewhat more radical, those who still have fire in their bellies, see it as chor, the thief, the snatcher-away of all things. Either way, for most Indians, sarkar is very separate from public. However, as you make your way up India's social ladder, the distinction between sarkar and public gets blurred. The Indian elite, like the elite anywhere in the world, finds it hard to separate itself from the state. It sees like the state, it thinks like the state, it speaks like the state.

And with these glasses weighing only about 40 grams, you'll feel that you're viewing a 40-inch screen from a distance of 7 feet." Video screens embedded into eyewear isn't that new, but the footprint of these is smaller than what I've seen before, making them cooler to wear on the subway.
