Canadian leader suspends Parliament to stay in power

Canadian leader suspends Parliament to stay in power

Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said Thursday that Canada's governor general has allowed him to suspend Parliament, postponing a no-confidence vote from his opponents that he was likely to lose. Harper called on his opponents to work with his government on measures to aid the nation's economy when Parliament returns on January 26. Had Governor General Michaelle Jean -- who represents Britain's Queen Elizabeth II as head of state -- denied Harper's request, Monday's vote would have likely brought down Harper's government, less than two months after his Conservative Party strengthened its minority position in federal elections. The Liberal Party and the leftist New Democratic Party announced plans earlier this week to form a governing coalition with the support of the Bloc Quebecois, which supports independence for French-speaking Quebec. "For the first time in the history of Canada, the prime minister of Canada is running away from the parliament of Canada," said [Liberal Party Leader Stephane] Dion, accusing the premier of placing "partisan politics ahead of the interest of all Canadians." New Democratic Party leader Jack Layton said Harper had used a "maneuver to escape accountability." "He refuses to face the people of Canada through their elected representatives," he said. "The prime minister is choosing to protect his own job rather than focusing on the jobs of Canadians who are being thrown out of work today."

Note: What gives Canada's governor general the right to suspend parliament? The governor general is the representative of the queen of England. Few know that the queen has this power over all commonwealth nations. Canada is not truly independent of England, nor are the other commonwealth nations, including Australia.

Commons shut down, opposition furious
December 31, 2009, Toronto Star
http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/article/744459--commons-shut-down-opposition-furious

Furious opposition MPs accused Prime Minister Stephen Harper of muzzling the House of Commons after he moved for the second time in a little more than a year to suspend Parliament. Mired in controversy over an alleged cover-up on the torture of Afghan prisoners and eager to increase the Conservatives' power in the Senate, the government is closing down Parliament until March 3, the Prime Minister's Office said Wednesday. The decision is "about one thing and one thing only – avoiding the scrutiny of Parliament at a time when this government is facing tough questions about their conduct in covering up the detainee scandal," Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff said in a statement. "Mr. Harper is showing his disregard for the democratic institutions of our country." Harper spoke Wednesday by telephone with Governor-General Michaëlle Jean, who agreed to the suspension. The prorogation of Parliament until after the Winter Olympics in Vancouver will likely scuttle dozens of pieces of legislation, and give the Tories a chance to increase their representation on Senate committees. The government has been on the defensive for weeks over allegations it failed to act on information that prisoners being passed to Afghan authorities by Canadian soldiers were at risk of being tortured.

Note: This is only the second time in Canadian history the Prime Minister has shut down parliament, with the governor-general's permission. Note that the governor-general is the English representative in Canadian government who is believed to have only nominal power, yet if you read this CNN article, you will see how England has more power over Canada than many believe.

Amy Goodman Detained at Canadian Border; Guards Demand Notes For Speaking Event

By Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzalez, Democracy Now!

AMY GOODMAN: Well, today we begin with a look at Canada's attempts to stifle dissent, particularly when it comes to the Winter Olympic Games to be held in Vancouver next year.

Last week, I was detained by Canadian authorities while crossing the Canadian border. It was Thanksgiving. I was on my way, along with two of my colleagues, to speak at the Vancouver Public Library at a benefit for community radio stations, when Canadian border guards held us for over an hour and a half at the border. Well, it was the top story of the CBC news in Canada, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Here's the report on CBC on Wednesday.

[Video clip of CBC news report]

CBC NEWS ANCHOR: Are Canadian border guards trying to limit speech? An American journalist is outraged about what happened to her on the way to Vancouver last night. She was detained and questioned about what she was planning to say about the Olympics. Our "Go Public" reporter, Kathy Tomlinson, has the exclusive top story.

KATHY TOMLINSON: An award-winning U.S. journalist, Amy Goodman is well known in alternative media circles.

[Video clip of Amy Goodman appearing on MSNBC's Hardball]

AMY GOODMAN: I didn't know we needed to have even a visa coming into Canada.

KATHY TOMLINSON: Here to promote a book.

AMY GOODMAN: Clearly he wasn't going to let us go.

KATHY TOMLINSON: She wasn't sure she'd get in.

AMY GOODMAN: They took the passports and then said, "Pull over."

KATHY TOMLINSON: You were flagged right off the bat?

AMY GOODMAN: Uh, yeah.

KATHY TOMLINSON: Goodman was grilled at the Peace Arch border Wednesday, asked repeatedly what she'd be talking about.

AMY GOODMAN: I said, because we have a big health care reform debate going on in the United States, we were looking at Tommy Douglas, but he still wanted to know what else I would be talking about. And I said, "And I'll be talking about the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq."

KATHY TOMLINSON: She says they were only interested in what she'd say about the Olympics.

AMY GOODMAN: He made it clear by saying, "What about the Olympics?"

And I said, "You mean when President Obama went to Copenhagen to push for the Olympics in Chicago?"

He said, "No, I'm talking about the Olympics here in 2010."

I said, "Oh, I hadn't thought of that."

And he was clearly incredulous that I was not going to be talking about the Olympics. He didn't believe me.

[Video/audio clip of Amy Goodman being detained at the 2008 Republican National Convention.]

KATHY TOMLINSON: Goodman's been detained before at the U.S. Republican Convention, arrested with dozens of others, covering protests outside.

Here she says her car and laptop were searched.

AMY GOODMAN: They took a photograph [inaudible].

KATHY TOMLINSON: Then she was issued this, which says she must leave Canada Friday.

AMY GOODMAN: I said, "Is this routine?" He said, "This is what we're doing."

KATHY TOMLINSON: The Canada Border Services Agency says it won't talk about this, citing privacy.

AMY GOODMAN: I felt under siege. I felt monitored and surveilled. I felt, as a journalist, violated.

KATHY TOMLINSON: We wanted to ask the government if this is part of a broader initiative to question and perhaps restrict people with certain political views coming here around the Olympics. The Canada Border Services Agency didn't respond to our request for an interview.

JUAN GONZALEZ: That report from Kathy Tomlinson of CBC. But, Amy -- Thanksgiving -- tell us more about exactly what happened when you were stopped.

AMY GOODMAN: Well, Juan, it was really incredible. It was Wednesday, the evening before Thanksgiving, and we're headed to the Vancouver Public Library, driving up from Seattle. When we got to the border, I thought it was just going to be routine. We handed in our passports. They stopped for a minute, and they flagged us. They told us to pull over, and it's pouring rain outside. We pulled the vehicle over. We had to get out and go into the facility.

JUAN GONZALEZ: And you were there with Dennis --

AMY GOODMAN: With Dennis Moynihan and with Chuck Scurich. We're on our Breaking the Sound Barrier tour. And while folks here were eating turkey, we thought we'd go "talk turkey" in Vancouver and talk about the columns in Breaking the Sound Barrier with Canadian listeners to Democracy Now!. Three community radio stations in Vancouver run Democracy Now!

So, we pulled in, went into the border facility. It's a large hangar-like space. And they start going through our car, but we're now inside. And then the border patrol call me up to the counter. And the guard --

JUAN GONZALEZ: And obviously, to cross into Canada, people don't need visas, they just --

AMY GOODMAN: No, that's right.

JUAN GONZALEZ: -- need to show identification.

AMY GOODMAN: You need your passport. And we were very surprised. It was almost empty, this whole hangar, so we were clearly singled out.

And I go up to the counter, and the guard says, "I want your notes."

I said, "My notes?"

He said, "The notes for the talk tonight."

I was completely taken aback. I went out to the car, and I brought in the copy of Breaking the Sound Barrier. And I came in, and I said, "Well, this is my new book, and it's a book of columns. So I actually read from the columns."

He said, "I want the notes."

I said, "Well, these you can think of as my notes."

And he said, "What are you talking about?"

And I said, "Well, I actually start with the last column, which is a column" -- as I was saying in this report to Kathy Tomlinson -- "about Tommy Douglas."

Now, for people in the United States, he's not as famous a name. But in Canada, he's considered the greatest Canadian. Tommy Douglas is the Premier -- was the Premier of Saskatchewan who brought, who pioneered the Canadian national health care system. And, interestingly, he's the grandfather of the actor Kiefer Sutherland, right? Kiefer Sutherland's mother is Shirley Douglas, the actress; his father, Donald Sutherland. But his grandfather was Tommy Douglas.

And, so I said, "I'll be talking about Tommy Douglas." Actually we were at the Douglas border crossing.

And he said, "What else?"

I said, "What else? Well, global warming."

"What else?" he said.

I said, "The global economic meltdown."

"What else?" he said.

I said, "Well, I'll also be talking about the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan."

"What else are you talking about?" he said. And --

JUAN GONZALEZ: Now, is it your sense that this was some rogue customs agent or that he had basically been alerted --

AMY GOODMAN: There with another --

JUAN GONZALEZ: -- and had gotten instructions to do this kind of questioning?

AMY GOODMAN: He was working with a group of customs agents, with the border guard. I mean, they're armed. Another border guard now has the book, and he's reading it. But they're also inputting everything I say. This border guard is handwriting all notes about what I say. And then the other border guard is going to the computer and inputting everything.

Then, they say, "What else?"

And I say, "That's about it."

And he says, "What about the Olympics?"

I said, "The Olympics? You mean when President Obama went to Copenhagen to push for the Olympics to come to Chicago?"

And he said, "And you didn't get them."

I said, "I know we didn't get them."

He said, "No, I'm talking about the Olympics here in 2010, in Canada."

I said, "No, I hadn't planned to talk about the Olympics.

"You're denying that you're talking about the Olympics." --

JUAN GONZALEZ: Did you even know there's an Olympics in 2010 in Canada?

AMY GOODMAN: This was not my topic, right? This is not so much news in the United States.

I really didn't know what he was referring to. And he kept pushing. He was clearly incredulous. And at my surprise, he disbelieved me even further. He clearly did not think I was telling the truth. He kept pushing, "You're denying you're talking about the Olympics?" I said, "That wasn't my plan for tonight."

Of course, as the reporter had asked me, "And what if you said yes. What would have happened then?"

Anyway, he finally tells me to sit down. And they go out and they combed through the car. I got very alarmed at what was happening, and I walked outside to where the guards were going through the car. One is on my colleague's computer, as if it was his. You know, he's just -- the computer was set up and he was going through it. They were rifling through the papers and everything. They told me to get back inside. I went back inside.

Finally they came in. We're now over an hour and a half late to the talk. And they say for me to follow them into a back room. I go with them into a back room -- the border guards -- and they take my picture. They make four copies of the picture. They take Dennis and Chuck's pictures. Individually, one by one, they take us in the back, one by one.

And then they attached them to what they called a control document. I said, "I wasn't aware we needed a visa." And they said, "These are control documents." And they stapled them into each of our passports. And I opened it, and it said -- the control document -- that we had to leave by Friday. We were coming in on Wednesday -- that we had to leave by Friday.

Then we were allowed to leave. We saw they had been through both of my colleagues computers, both Dennis and Chuck's computers. I don't know if they had gone into mine. And they had gone through the car. And we eventually arrived an hour and a half late to the talk.

JUAN GONZALEZ: Amazing.

AMY GOODMAN: To say the least, it was --

JUAN GONZALEZ: This is from our friendly Canadian neighbors.

AMY GOODMAN: Yeah, this was, to say the least, extremely jarring. I felt completely violated, I mean, personally and professionally. You know, and for journalism overall. Because this is not only a violation of freedom of the press, you know, the idea that, you know, the state is going into your papers, your documents, your sources, everything -- but also a violation of the public's right to know. Because if journalists feel there are things they can't report on, that they'll be detained, that they'll be arrested, or they'll be questioned, they'll be interrogated; this is a threat to the free flow of information. And that's the public's loss, that's democracy's loss.

Go here for the rest of this segment.

The Most Urgent Threat to World Peace Is … Canada

By George Monbiot, Monbiot.com
Posted on December 2, 2009, Printed on January 2, 2010
http://www.alternet.org/story/144290/

Editor's Note: The video to the right is AgitProp Communications' new video on the environmental dangers posed by Canada's Tar Sands oil project.

When you think of Canada, which qualities come to mind? The world's peace-keeper, the friendly nation, a liberal counterweight to the harsher pieties of its southern neighbor, decent, civilized, fair, well-governed? Think again. This country's government is now behaving with all the sophistication of a chimpanzee's tea party. So amazingly destructive has Canada become, and so insistent have my Canadian friends been that I weigh into this fight, that I've broken my self-imposed ban on flying and come to Toronto.

So here I am, watching the astonishing spectacle of a beautiful, cultured nation turning itself into a corrupt petrostate. Canada is slipping down the development ladder, retreating from a complex, diverse economy towards dependence on a single primary resource, which happens to be the dirtiest commodity known to man. The price of this transition is the brutalisation of the country, and a government campaign against multilateralism as savage as any waged by George Bush.

Until now I believed that the nation which has done most to sabotage a new climate change agreement was the United States. I was wrong. The real villain is Canada. Unless we can stop it, the harm done by Canada in December 2009 will outweigh a century of good works.

In 2006 the new Canadian government announced that it was abandoning its targets to cut greenhouse gases under the Kyoto Protocol. No other country that had ratified the treaty has done this. Canada was meant to have cut emissions by 6% between 1990 and 2012. Instead they have already risen by 26%.

It's now clear that Canada will refuse to be sanctioned for abandoning its legal obligations. The Kyoto Protocol can be enforced only through goodwill: countries must agree to accept punitive future obligations if they miss their current targets. But the future cut Canada has volunteered is smaller than that of any other rich nation. Never mind special measures; it won't accept even an equal share. The Canadian government is testing the international process to destruction and finding that it breaks all too easily. By demonstrating that climate sanctions aren't worth the paper they're written on, it threatens to render any treaty struck at Copenhagen void.

After giving the finger to Kyoto, Canada then set out to prevent the other nations from striking a successor agreement. At the end of 2007 it single-handedly blocked a Commonwealth resolution to support binding targets for industrialised nations. After the climate talks in Poland in December 2008, it won the Fossil of the Year award, presented by environmental groups to the country which had done most to disrupt the talks. The climate change performance index, which assesses the efforts of the world's 60 richest nations, was published in the same month. Saudi Arabia came 60th. Canada came 59th.

In June this year the media obtained Canadian briefing documents which showed that the government was scheming to divide the Europeans. During the meeting in Bangkok in October, almost the entire developing world bloc walked out when the Canadian delegate was speaking, as they were so revolted by his bullying. Last week the Commonwealth heads of government battled for hours (and eventually won) against Canada's obstructions. A concerted campaign has now begun to expel Canada from the Commonwealth.

In Copenhagen next week, this country will do everything in its power to wreck the talks. The rest of the world must do everything in its power to stop it. But such is the fragile nature of climate agreements that one rich nation – especially a member of the G8, the Commonwealth and the Kyoto group of industrialised countries – could scupper the treaty. Canada now threatens the well-being of the world.

Why? There's a simple answer. Canada is developing the world's second largest reserve of oil. Did I say oil? It's actually a filthy mixture of bitumen, sand, heavy metals and toxic organic chemicals. The tar sands, most of which occur in Alberta, are being extracted by the biggest opencast mining operation on earth. An area the size of England, of pristine forests and marshes, will be dug up, unless the Canadians can stop this madness. Already it looks like a scene from the end of the world: the strip-miners are creating a churned black hell on an unimaginable scale.

To extract oil from this mess, it needs to be heated and washed. Three barrels of water are used to process one barrel of oil. The contaminated water is held in vast tailing ponds, some of which are so toxic that the tar companies employ people to scoop dead birds off the surface. Most are unlined. They leak organic poisons, arsenic and mercury into the rivers. The First Nations people living downstream have developed a range of exotic cancers and auto-immune diseases.

Refining tar sands requires two to three times as much energy as refining crude oil. The companies exploiting them burn enough natural gas to heat six million homes. Alberta's tar sands operation is the world's biggest single industrial source of carbon emissions. By 2020, if the current growth continues, it will produce more greenhouse gases than Ireland or Denmark. Already, thanks in part to the tar mining, Canadians have almost the highest per capita emissions on earth, and the stripping of Alberta has scarcely begun.

Canada hasn't acted alone. The biggest leaseholder in the tar sands is Shell, a company that has spent millions persuading the public that it respects the environment. The other great greenwasher, BP, initially decided to stay out of tar. Now it has invested in plants built to process it. The British bank RBS, 70% of which belongs to you and me (the government's share will soon rise to 84%), has lent or underwritten £8bn for exploiting the tar sands.

The purpose of Canada's assault on the international talks is to protect this industry. This is not a poor nation. It does not depend for its economic survival on exploiting this resource. But the tar barons of Alberta have been able to hold the whole country to ransom. They have captured Canada's politics and are turning this lovely country into a cruel and thuggish place.

Canada is a cultured, peaceful nation, which every so often allows a band of rampaging Neanderthals to trample all over it. Timber companies were licensed to log the old-growth forest in Clayaquot Sound; fishing companies were permitted to destroy the Grand Banks: in both cases these get-rich-quick schemes impoverished Canada and its reputation. But this is much worse, as it affects the whole world. The government's scheming at the climate talks is doing for its national image what whaling has done for Japan.

I will not pretend that this country is the only obstacle to an agreement at Copenhagen. But it is the major one. It feels odd to be writing this. The immediate threat to the global effort to sustain a peaceful and stable world comes not from Saudi Arabia or Iran or China. It comes from Canada. How could that be true?

BOY'S TOWN ABUSE!

Peculiar Ties Connect Boys Town to CIA

Although the national media have focused on pedophilia and abuse committed by Catholic priests in the Boston area and elsewhere, the media have consistently suppressed an even more explosive and related story.

For years, former Nebraska State Sen. John DeCamp has spearheaded an inquiry into a massive pedophile ring with a base of operations in Omaha, Nebraska, that has been linked to high-ranking political figures in Washington.  Recently, DeCamp won a $1 million civil judgment against former big-name Republican Party figure Larry King (an Omaha credit union founder) on behalf of a young man, Paul Bonacci, who charged that King had molested him and brought him into the pedophile ring.

DeCamp was the guest on the February 24 broadcast of Radio Free America, the weekly talk forum sponsored by AFP (American Free Press) with host Tom Valentine.  Valentine's questions are in boldface.  DeCamp's responses are in regular text. Caller's comments are in italics.

When your client, Paul Bonacci, filed a law suit against Larry King of the Franklin Credit Union in Omaha, you also named the Catholic Arch diocese of Omaha as a co-defendant. Why?

The reason was that my client said that it was because of a couple of Catholic priests there started doing improper things to him at a very young age that started him into the tragic life that he led. The federal judge ruled that it was not possible to name the archdiocese—that it couldn't possibly be guilty of anything, because how would they know what individual priests had been doing. In other words: "How would the bishop have known anything to stop it?"

This sounds just like the current controversy in Boston, except this happened long before the Boston scandal.

That's right. It was exactly like Boston. I took it so seriously at the time that I went to Rome and met with Cardinal Ratzinger.  He's the one who has been in charge of this systemic problem in the church of priests involved in pedophilia.  Ratzinger is now in the limelight over this issue, but he couldn't get anyone to do anything 12 or 13 years ago when I was writing about this and filing my lawsuit.

I appealed the decision removing the diocese from my lawsuit. I went before the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals and they upheld the judge's decision in favor of removal of the diocese.

I went on to win the rest of the lawsuit against Larry King, but I was always bitter because I knew that I was right. This problem of priests abusing their position and abusing young children was a serious problem and not being properly dealt with by the church.

Of course, there have been some major cases in recent years, but these cases trace back to events many years ago. So now we have the Catholic Archdiocese in Boston paying out millions to settle claims. But my case in Omaha was thrown out.

When in the course of your investigations did you begin to realize that Boys Town in Omaha was essentially a "farm" for what you determined to be a national network of pedophiles that extended well beyond pedophilic priests?

When the children I was representing—and in the course of interviewing others—brought the role of Boys Town up as a central point. At least certain elements of Boys Town were being improperly used.

How did you get the British Broadcasting Company [BBC] interested in coming over and doing the explosive documentary that they produced on Boys Town (but which was never aired)?

I did nothing to get them interested. Somehow the BBC got a copy of an early edition of my book. They sent over a preliminary team and, for whatever reason unknown to me, the BBC sent over an entire investigative mission. Over a period of nine months or so they produced the program entitled Conspiracy of Silence. It was scheduled in all of the TV guides to appear on the Discovery Channel on a particular date and at the last minute it was pulled and never saw daylight.

I called the individual who handles the Discovery Channel programming and he told me that the program had been bought up and sealed and was never to be seen. However, a copy of the video was sent to me from parties unknown, who were obviously concerned that the program was not going to be aired.

Some $500,000 was paid to buy the airtime for the program. So, whoever bought it at the last minute was able to prevent it from being shown. However, the copies of the videotape are out there and are being widely distributed.*

Now you have picked up a new client and it ties directly into Boys Town.

My client is the former head of Boys Town. He was the head longer than anyone in the history of Boys Town. His name is Monsignor Robert Hupp. In 1976, he was appointed as a U.S. delegate to the United Nations, the only clergyman ever appointed to that position.

He contacted me. He's 87 years old. I met with him and he needed some help. He felt, I guess, at his advanced age that he wanted to correct some problems and abuses that he had tried to years ago. Just after I was asked to represent him, he completed a major recorded deposition in the presence of many church lawyers, and also attorneys for a number of altar boys who had been abused by priests.

Did he come to you because there were suits against Boys Town?

There were lawsuits against the Catholic Archdiocese of Omaha and Boys Town is a part of the archdiocese. The position of the church, which was very public, was that they knew nothing about the abuse and, if they had known, they would have done something about it.

That's very important to understand. They are saying, "We didn't know, so how can we be held responsible. If we had known, we would have done something about it."

However, the essence of what Monsignor Hupp asked me to do was to help get the true story out, because what he had to say was rather shocking and would totally disprove that claim here in Omaha and probably in a lot of other places.

I made the arrangements so that he could get his story out under oath. The deposition that he gave in this case may be sealed, but one way or another the story he had to tell will come out.

Let me give you some background on Monsignor Hupp so that it will all probably make sense. In 1969, Hupp became was what is called the "vicar general" of the Catholic Archdiocese of Omaha. A vicar general is the second-in-command, just below the bishop. When the bishop is gone, the vicar general acts in his place. He held this post until 1973.

During that time he became aware of the problem of sexual abuse. He officially notified the bishop at the time, Bishop Sheehan, and said, "This is terrible. You have to do something." From 1969 to 1973, Hupp was making an issue of this but the bishop did nothing but move the priest to another parish.

So, we overcame the first defense that "We didn't know and if we did know, we would have done something."

Then, Hupp gave an ultimatum to the bishop, saying, "I am resigning as vicar general," and the bishop tells him that he can't do it. Hupp said, "I will either resign and you will accept my resignation or I will go to the Omaha World-Herald newspaper and we'll see what happens then." So the bishop let him resign. Shortly thereafter, Hupp was appointed to be the head of Boys Town. Today Hupp believes this was sort of a reward for keeping quiet.

He served as head of Boys Town until 1985 and, of course, went on film with the BBC acknowledging that he was like the wife who was the last to know. He is now determined to do what he can to correct the problem. He sees this as a failure to address the issue which caused it to get worse.

Are you able to determine how many boys from Boys Town got dragged into these national pedophile rings?

I know there were many. I did not realize how serious and widespread it was until about the last six months.

I had a visitor from the federal public defender's office in Las Vegas. They called me and said: "I think we have a common interest." They said: "Well, you know about a place called Boys Town."

I responded: "You federal prosecutors have been part of the problem, helping to cover up what's going on there."

They said, "Would you be willing to meet with us?"

I agreed and they were there the next morning waiting at my office door.

They were representing a fellow named Paine who is on death row in Las Vegas. He had a bad habit of killing taxi drivers. This Paine had a number of brothers and they had all been raised in Boys Town. When Paine was convicted it turned out that, as they explained it to me, he was a multiple personality that was deliberately created.

In other words, someone had used psychiatric techniques and sexual abuse to alter this young man's mind.

Yes, and this happened at Boys Town. The story he told was that all of these mind control experiments were being carried out.

Now, the first time you hear this, you think, "Oh, they are in la-la land." However, the federal public defender went on to explain that Paine had revealed to them a host of very serious problems going on at Boys Town. Both he and his brothers had been involved, and Paine's attorneys wanted me to share with them any information that I had come up with. They are appealing Paine's death sentence and hope to use this information in the appeal.

The attorneys told me that this boy had another brother, Andre, who lived in Omaha. It turns out that many years before, on the very night the Franklin Credit Union was raided and closed by the federal authorities, he and a group of boys were taken out of Boys Town in the middle of the night and moved to an institution out of state.

I told these federal public defenders, after giving them a copy of my book: "I predict that after you read the book and before we get very far into this case that you will suddenly get intimidated and lose your interest. You'll find that the FBI was involved in the cover-up of all of this."

They said, "Oh no, no, no."

So they lined up the brother, Andre, who is now in his early 20s, to meet with me. Andre told me all of the same things that my previous client, Paul Bonacci, and others had told me. But he had never had any contact with any of them. They had the same stories, the same information, the same people. However, Andre gave me some more information on how organized it was at Georgetown and how he was taken out of Boys Town on a regular basis to participate in sexual parties where they did pornographic films. They would say he was being taken on a visit to his mother, but, in fact, he was not visiting his mother.

It wasn't 24 hours later I got a call from the kid and he told me that he was heading out of town. The reason why was because the FBI had shown up at the place where he was registered to go to computer school and seized the computers and told them the boy was involved in all kinds of things. He was kicked out of school. The FBI then went to his apartment and scared his landlord into evicting him. And they went to the place where he worked as a clerk and that place fired him.

The kid knew he was in trouble and he said, "If they come after me again, I'm going to kill myself." But I've put this young man in touch via e-mail with Noreen Gosch, whose son Johnny was kidnapped and brought into these sex rings. They've been exchanging information.

What's happened with the federal public defenders representing Andre Paine's brother?

They stopped contacting me.

Another one of your clients who was involved in the Boys Town affair in the early days also ran for his life under similar circumstances.

Yes, that was Rusty Nelson, who had been a photographer at some of these sex parties. I found him in an Oregon prison after the authorities said that he never existed. I got him out of prison and brought him as a witness. He brought pictures that proved the Larry King connection in the case against King and in the same case where the judge threw out the archdiocese of Omaha as a defendant.

Your research has focused on Omaha, but this whole sex ring involving Larry King and Boys Town extends nationwide, all the way to Washington and involves the CIA and parts of the military.

I only focused on Omaha because it happened to be an important staging ground for so much of the intrigue that I documented. There was a confluence of institutions here in the Omaha area that are linked to all of this pedophile network. One of those institutions is Offutt Air Force Base, which, of course, is where the head of the Strategic Air Command (SAC) is located.

The SAC is the most secure place in the world. That's where they took President Bush on Sept. 11.

As a Nebraska senator, I was in there. They have, beneath the ground, more of a secure barricaded facility that could take a nuclear hit.

What's interesting—and this came out after the fall of the Soviet Union—is that there were more CIA people stationed and operating out of Omaha and Offutt than at CIA headquarters in Langley, Va.

Your research (and that of others) indicates that, for a variety of reasons, this national pedophile network is tied to the mind control and mind-altering experiments that have been conducted by the CIA under such names as MK-ULTRA. These have been acknowledged by the CIA and written about even in such mainstream publications as The New York Times. This mind control programming includes get ting small children and confusing them with sex and drugs.

As I pointed out in my book, many of the kids taken out of Boys Town and who were part of the sex ring being operated by Larry King were often taken out to Offutt Air Force Base. I believe that Offutt was the military component, so to speak, or contact point, for what we now know were mind control experiments in the MK-ULTRA mode.

Here's a caller, Ken:

Are you familiar with the name John Jubert?

Yes, he was executed for the murder of two small boys.

I knew John Jubert and have been in correspondence with his mother. I was a senior at the same small military college in Vermont when he was a freshman. He was a good follower, but not a leader. He was always looking to please other people. He left school and went into the Air Force and ended up at Offutt. He killed two little boys. That wasn't the John that I knew.

I had heard some stories about Offutt and know about the goings-on. As I learned more, it was clear that he was all wrapped up in this child sex ring. It seemed as if he were trying to impress somebody by committing this crime.

In your research, John DeCamp, have you been able to link this Jubert to what you've been investigating?

John Jubert had some other links that go directly into what we are talking about here. But I don't think this is the time or the place to go into that right now. He was proved to have skinned alive two little boys from the Omaha area.

I know when you tell people about things like this, they think you are nuts. Are people in denial or does this system go so high that if you challenge those responsible you just disappear or what?

I will say that my client, Monsignor Hupp, had turned over to the bishop the name of a member of the clergy from the Omaha area who had killed a boy and they wouldn't do anything about it. Again, I can't go into that now.

I wrote my book at the suggestion of William Colby, the former director of the CIA. He said: "Write it for your own protection. Tell the story and nobody will have any reason to do you in, since you've already said it. They may try to make you sound like a kook, but at least they won't have to kill you to shut you up."

The Washington Child Sex Ring Cover-up

The Franklin Child Sex Ring Implicating the Bush Whitehouse

The following archive paints a chilling portrait of what is really going on in the upper echelons of the ruling elite here in America. The story involves children from orphanages in Nebraska being flown around the United States by top Republican officials in order to engage in child sex orgies with America's ruling elite. It is a fact that during the 1980's, child sexual services were provided by top Republican officials to key, bureaucrats and diplomats but most importantly, there is a chilling proximity of all of these events and personalities, to the President of the United States at the time, George H.W. Bush. And there have been victims who claim that the President himself engaged in the activities. It is a tale of child sex, murder, espionage, blackmail, and huge payoffs. And all the players are involved. From the White House to the CIA to the media barrons to the Republican elite - right down to the orphanages where they procured their victims.

This story was the second biggest scandal of the 1980's which was completely obliterated by the Bush White House - A complete coordinated blackout by the ruling elite in cooperation with the American television networks. (The biggest scandal being the Bush involvement in the attempted assassination of President Reagan) Since the elite who own the television networks in America are the same elite who feast off the carcass of the American population - just like the Bushes do and who sit on the same boards of the same corporate cartels as the Bushes do - most Americans will never hear of this explosive story. But thanks to the Internet all these suppressed news facts are re-surfacing. Perhaps the most chilling aspect of this horrific tale is that such realities can be so completely obliterated by the powers that be so that, even though these are simply the very biggest most explosive stories of our time - you will never know that they happened. That is why www.voxfux.com exists. To bring you the hard cold truth about what is really happening to our world. To inform you about who these people really are who rule America.

Fortunately not all people are in on the crimes of the elite. Once and a while a person comes along who is human and who fights and resists this evil force which is destroying the human race. In this case, former republican Senator John Decamp was involved in the production a documentary called "Conspiracy of Silence" it was to air May 3, 1994 on the Discovery Channel. This documentary exposed a network of religious leaders and Washington politicians who flew children to Washington D.C. for sex orgies. As the story goes, at the last minute before airing, there was a massive effort from key Washington politicians who were implicated in the scandal to exert pressure on the channel to threatened the TV Cable industry with restrictive legislation if this documentary was aired.

Almost immediately, the rights to the documentary were purchased by unknown persons who had ordered all copies destroyed. A copy of this videotape was furnished anonymously to former Nebraska state senator and attorney John De Camp who made it available to retired F.B.I. chief, Ted L. Gunderson. While the video quality is not top grade, this tape is a blockbuster in what is revealed by the participants involved. You can view the online video below.

The story was also covered in the New York Times and other major east coast newspapers,
but because of the links to Whitehouse and control from the top the story was killed..

There are two main suspects in the child ring were Craig Spence and Lawrence E. King Jr. Below are some pictures of them. Both were involved in the Republican party. King sang the National anthem at two republican national conventions during the 1980s. He served time in jail for bank fraud and is now living somewhere on the east coast. Spence was an important Republican lobbyist, who feared that, because he knew something very dark, implicating the very most powerful man in America, George H. W. Bush, that he would be killed by the CIA at his murder would be made to look like a suicide. He was later found dead in a hotel room - the CIA connected coroner declared the bizarre death -suicide. Several of his partners went to jail for being involved in the adult part of the homosexual sex ring. Democrats were also involved in this as well, so don't expect them to expose the sex ring.

Photographer for White House child sex ring arrested after Thompson suicide

Tom Flocco | March 13, 2005

The Justice Department, acting through the FBI and the U.S. Attorney's Office in Omaha, emerges from the record of the Franklin investigations not so much as a party to the cover-up, but as its coordinator. Rigging grand juries, harassment of witnesses, incitement to perjury and tampering with evidence--federal personnel were seen to apply all of those techniques in the Franklin case. (John W. DeCamp, Esq., The Franklin Cover-up , Second Edition, January 2005)

WASHINGTON -- Photographer Russell E. "Rusty" Nelson was recently arrested two days after journalist Hunter Thompson reportedly committed suicide four weeks ago on February 10, according to two phone interviews with attorney John DeCamp last week.

Nelson was allegedly employed by a former Republican Party activist to take pictures of current or retired U.S. House-Senate members and other prominent government officials engaging in sexual criminality by receiving or committing sodomy and other sex acts on children during the Reagan-Bush 41 administrations.  

Hunter Thompson's death and the news blackout of Rusty Nelson's simultaneous arrest raise questions that someone may be attempting to limit Nelson's freedom or threaten him, since according to testimony, both men had allegedly witnessed homosexual prostitution and pedophile criminal acts in a suppressed but far-reaching child sex-ring probe closely linked to Senate and House members--but also former President George H. W. Bush.

[In U.S. District Court testimony, Rusty Nelson told Judge Warren Urbom he took 20,000 to 30,000 pictures, 2-5-1999, p.52]

Pedophile victim Paul Bonacci--kidnapped and forced into sex slavery between the ages of 6 and 17--told U.S. District Court Judge Warren Urbom in sworn testimony [pp.105, 124-126] on February 5, 1999: "Where were the parties?...down in Washington, DC...and that was for sex...There was sex between adult men and other adult men but most of it had to do with young boys and young girls with the older folks...specifically for sex with minors...Also in Washington, DC, there were parties after a party...there were a lot of parties where there would be senators and congressmen who had nothing to do with the sexual stuff. But there were some senators and congressmen who stayed for the [pedophile sex] parties afterwards...on a lot of the trips he took us on he had us, I mean, I met some people that I don't feel comfortable telling their name because I don't want to --- ...Q: Are you scared?...Yes..."

DeCamp, a former Nebraska state senator and decorated Vietnam War vet, told TomFlocco.com "there are tons of pictures still left; law enforcement is currently looking for them," adding, "you can also assume there are senators and congressmen implicated; otherwise this would not be such a big issue."  But no federal official has stepped forward to protect Rusty Nelson's life, as Congress would be reluctant to hold hearings or force a federal prosecutor to probe its own members for sex acts with children--still punishable by law.
 

Sex with minors?

In his testimony before Judge Urbom, Bonacci specifically named Congressman Barney Frank (D-MA) as having participated in the parties--also telling the judge he had "relationships with him" in Washington, DC and was flown to Massachusetts for sex in the basement of Frank's Boston home. [2-5-1999, p. 126]

However, Urbom did not subpoena all the photos and did not ask Bonacci to identify photos of specific senators and congressmen, or reveal their names in court transcripts and depositions we examined; nor did Judge Urbom explain why investigations have never commenced regarding which members of congress had sex with children.

The evidence DeCamp presented was so credible and substantial that Urbom awarded Paul Bonacci $1 million for child abuse on February 19, 1999 regarding his lawsuit involving Larry King. This, despite a Nebraska jury having already indicted Bonacci for perjury in 1990, ultimately sending an intentionally damaged, spiritually and physically abused young man to prison for five years--and despite his treatment by King, described in court testimony:

"They put guns up to my head. Had guns put in my mouth...Larry King sent out boys, men, to jump me...he had them pretty well beat the tar out of me from the waist down so nobody would see the marks...I had my fingers broken...I can remember them burning me with hot instruments...placing stuff inside me...almost what I call a cattle prod...But it would be put inside then they'd shock me inside my -- ...Judge Urbom: Anus?...Yes... And they would -- ...Judge: You mean electrically heated?...They would put it in and then push a button and it would shock me...Judge Urbom:..done by Larry King at his direction?...At his direction..."

"I threatened to go to the police in California, thought maybe they would listen whereas in Omaha they were in his pocketbook...he had me hung out of an airplane with a rope by my ankles... If they wanted to get something passed through the legislature, he would put some people that were against it in a compromising position. By using us boys and girls ...Judge Urbom: Was this by your being the sexual partner of that person?...Yes...Judge Urbom: ...Any estimates of how often you participated as the sexual partner of one of these persons that he wanted to get some kind of control over?...There were times when it would be four or five in a night...on probably a couple thousand times...sometimes dozens of times with the same person..." [U.S. District Court testimony, 2-5-1999, pp. 146-151]

Curiously, Paul Bonacci told investigators that the sex ring was based out of Offutt U.S. Air Force Base near Omaha, having been taken there to be abused since he was three years old in 1970. At Offutt, Paul said he was "trained" by tortures, heavy drugging and sexual degradation. [Offutt AFB played a major role immediately following the 9/11 attacks as George W. Bush made the base his post-attack headquarters for a short period.]

So intent upon his physical harm, the government "moved Bonacci to different facilities--despite agreements worked out by DeCamp, purposefully given food to which he was allergic while his weight dropped, and denied a blanket for months...beaten several times in jail and placed with potentially violent people associated with Larry King," according to Decamp.

John DeCamp told us last week that "Larry King was released from prison on April 11, 2001 after serving about five years," adding "he's back in Washington, DC and now involved in this story again."  [DeCamp's book also said "King went to prison for embezzlement, conspiracy and making false financial record entries...there was no trial on any other charges, and the evidence of child prostitution and abuse perpetrated by King was never presented in any court."  Franklin Cover-up , p. 224]

John DeCamp just released an updated 2005 edition of his original book about the secret White House-linked national child sex-ring entitled The Franklin Cover-up [$12.95 + $4.00 shipping: contact decamplegal@... for 2005 edition]. The carefully researched and graphic expose involves convicted [and recently released from prison] GOP operative Lawrence E. "Larry" King Jr. who allegedly hired photographers to capture legislators and high officials in compromising sexual positions with children while he managed the Franklin Federal Credit Union--according to court testimony on 2-5-1999. [Franklin was raided by federal agencies and shut down two days before George H. W. Bush was elected president in 1988.]

Past mysterious deaths, clandestine arrests, court testimony, and credible evidence of FBI and CIA participation in their cover-up also raise questions as to why elderly pedophile priests are removed from their pulpits, prosecuted and imprisoned for sex acts committed 40 years ago and why famous music entertainers are prosecuted for pedophilia; yet elderly pedophile federal legislators may still remain in the U.S. House and Senate--drawing a free pass for past criminal child-sex acts.
 
Regarding his role in taking blackmail photos of government officials, Rusty Nelson confirmed Bonacci's testimony to Judge Urbom: "Q: Children on the airplane?...yes. Q: How young?...There was one situation went back to Washington, DC...he had probably 10, 12 years old...Q: Boys, girls?...Both...Q: Who attended the parties?...Prominent business people, very prominent high-ranking officials, politicians. The younger people. What would transpire was they would have a party and then a party after the party...after the party was more of a sex-type deal...That's what Larry [King] would -- -- Q: These old politicians were having sex with each other?...Or people Larry would bring...some younger people...Did you take pictures of the parties?...I took pictures at some of the parties, yes..." [U.S. District Court testimony, 2-5-1999, pp. 89-91]  

After the Secret Service allowed Paul Bonacci to have access to the White House on July 3, 1988, one of DeCamp's investigators said the young pedophile victim was able to draw a floor-plan of the presidential inside living quarters of the White House--an area not available to the public--lending stong credence to a June 29, 1989 Washington Times front page story, "Homosexual prostitution inquiry ensnares VIPs with Reagan, Bush," when reporters Paul Rodriguez and George Archibald said "Call-boys took midnight tour of White House."


 

Presidential indiscretions—or criminal acts?

According to a Nebraska state police report, Nebraska Foster Care Review Board letter to the Attorney General, Nebraska Senate's Franklin committee investigative report, and a 50-page report by Omaha's Boys Town welfare case officer Mrs. Julie Walters, pedophile victims Nelly and Kimberly Webb detailed a massive child sex, homosexual and pornography operation run out of Nebraska by Larry King--but with close ties directly to the White House.

Mrs. Walter's Nebraska Dept. of Social Services report (3-25-86) revealed: "[14 year-old] Nelly said at these trip parties hosted by Larry King, she sat naked `looking pretty and innocent' and guests could engage in any sexual activity they wanted, but penetration was not allowed... Nellysaid she first met V. P. George Bush at the Republican Convention where King sang the national anthem, and saw Bush again at a Washington, DC party Larry hosted...Last year [1985] she met V.P. Bush and saw him at one of the parties Larry gave while on a Washington, DC trip. At some of the parties there are just men (as was the case at the party George Bush attended)...Nelly said she has seen sodomy committed at those parties."

The Walters report continued: "On December 19, 1988, Nelly was contacted and voluntarily came to the FBI offices on December 30, 1988. She was interviewed by [FBI agents] Brady, Tucker and Phillips...in September or October, 1984 when Lisa was 14 she went to Chicago with Larry King and 15-20 boys from Omaha...She indicates she attended a party in Chicago with King and the male youths. She indicated George Bush was present...she sat at a table at the party wearing nothing but a negligee. She stated George Bush saw her on the table. She stated she saw George Bush pay King money and Bush left the party with a nineteen year old black boy named Brent. Lisa said the party Bush attended was in Chicago in September or October 1984. The Chicago Tribune of October 31, 1984 said Bush was in Illinois campaigning for congressional candidates at the end of October."

Bush 41 surfaced again in Lowe's May, 1989 review of reports by Thomas Vlahoulis from the state attorney general's office: "Sorenson told Vlahoulis that both Kimberly and Nelly [Webb] brought up the name of George Bush and indicated that they had both met him..."

In spite of four polygraph tests administered by a Nebraska state trooper who said he was convinced Nelly was telling the truth, a Washington country, Nebraska judge in December, 1990 ignored Julie Walter's 50-page report, numerous debriefings of the girls by foster care officials and youth workers stating the sisters told the truth--specifically about George Bush Sr., and dismissed all charges against their foster parents Jarrett and Barbara Webb, who Nelly and Kimberly said had allowed them to be abused.

Regarding his role in taking blackmail photos of government officials, recently re-arrested Rusty Nelson confirmed Bonacci's testimony to Judge Urbom: "Q: Children on the airplane?...yes. Q: How young?...There was one situation went back to Washington, DC he had probably 10, 12 years old...Q: Boys, girls?...Both...Q: Who attended the parties?...Prominent business people, very prominent high-ranking officials, politicians. The younger people. What would transpire was they would have a party and then a party after the party...after the party was more of a sex-type deal...That's what Larry [King] would -- -- Q: These old politicians were having sex with each other?...Or people Larry would bring...some younger people...Did you take pictures of the parties?...I took pictures at some of the parties, yes..." [U.S. District Court testimony, 2-5-1999, pp. 89-91]
 

Gosch to Guckert to Gannon?

Cable television news reports have recently linked an alleged male prostitute to the present White House since George W. Bush permitted James Guckert to use an unprecedented Secret Service-approved alias (Jeff Gannon) while having access to the White House for two years as a pool reporter serving the younger Bush--before which Gannon had advertised himself on internet pornography sites as a male "escort" charging $200 an hour. [Gannon is the subject of independent news reports which have referred to him as the former kidnapped Des Moines, Iowa paperboy Johnny Gosch--forced into child sex-slavery.] John DeCamp told this writer "I believe Johnny Gosch and Jeff Gannon are one and the same person--but I am not in a position to know positively."

During a recent phone interview, Noreen Gosch told TomFlocco.com that she is still not sure whether her missing son Johnny is in fact James Gannon, because she has "not seen enough evidence." But having been abducted in 1982, Johnny Gosch would now be about 35-36 years old. Gannon claims to be 47 but his "male4male" website escorts profile lists him as 31 in 2000, which would also make him 35-36 years old today.

George W. Bush has not explained how Guckert/Gannon—who had advertised himself as a male escort—could apparently operate in the White House as a reporter for two years using a Secret Service-approved alias and regularly be called upon by George W. Bush and press secretary Scott McClellan during nationally televised presidential press conferences. 

Questions can be raised as to whether Gannon also had access to the White House living quarters as Paul Bonacci and other call-boys did during his father's administration--as the Washington Times reported. Photos of George W. Bush and Jeff Gannon together indicate that they have a cordial personal relationship.

Noreen Gosch said her son Johnny is living under an assumed name after being abducted on September 5, 1982 while serving his Sunday morning paper route. During a clandestine visit from her son when he was 27 or 28, Mrs. Gosch said Johnny told her he was taken by a highly organized, very corporate global pedophile/pornography ring--linked to the Washington, DC congressional call-boy scandal during the 1980's.
 

Hunter Thompson directed child murder-sex film?

 A controversial author, Hunter Thompson was allegedly linked to Larry King as implicated in Paul Bonacci's testimony in which the pedophile victim revealed that Thompson directed a graphic `snuff' film [Franklin Cover-up, pp.102-105 & 327] made near Sacramento, California at a location called " Bohemian Grove ."

Bonacci--flown numerous times across state lines for sexual exploitation to Washington, DC and other cities--testified on videotape [5-14-1990] for Nebraska State Police investigator Gary Caradori. Bonacci said that while on a trip to Sacramento, he was forced at gun-point to commit homosexual acts on another boy before he watched other men do the same--after which the boy was shot in the head.

In separate testimony, Decamp said Bonacci told him "Larry King was smiling and laughing the whole time the film was being shown...as the men watched, they passed Nicholas [another victim] and me around as if we were toys, and sexually abused us." [U.S. District Court, 2-5-1999, pp.115-129]

Bonacci's testimony has been evaluated as credible and well-informed by leading child abuse experts, psychiatrists, psychologists and polygraph tests; and he has also testified that he was forced to lure Johnny Gosch into being kidnapped--considered by many to be the most notorious U.S. child sex-slavery case.
 

Protecting legislators at the expense of children

John Decamp told TomFlocco.com that Franklin child-abuse witness "Alisha Owen was convicted of lying that as a minor, she had sex with Omaha Chief of Police Robert Wadman. She was placed in solitary confinement for years--the most brutal treatment of a female inmate in Nebraska history for a first-time offense," to which Decamp added, "it was done to keep her silent and away from other inmates, but also as a warning to the other children."

21 year-old Alisha Jahn Owen was sentenced on August 8, 1991 to serve nine to twenty-seven years in prison for telling a grand jury that she was sexually abused as a juvenile by a Nebraska District Court judge, by Omaha's Chief of Police, by the manager of the Franklin Credit Union, and others.

DeCamp said "Alisha witnessed abuse of other children and functioned as an illegal drug courier traveling nationwide for some of Nebraska's wealthiest, most powerful and prominent businessmen." But a local and a federal grand jury indicted the victim-witnesses for perjury--throwing the key young people in prison to cover up child-sex and illegal drugs.

The Nebraska State Senate's primary Franklin Committee investigator Gary Caradori's March 14, 1990 notes revealed that on the day of the federal agents' raid on Franklin Credit Union, "a large amount of pornographic material was taken out of the credit union, including videos and photographs depicting sexual acts. I was told that if Friedrichs or any of the other people working for the CPA firm contacted by the government [audit] would say anything, they would automatically lose their jobs."

That evidence was never made available to the Nebraska Senate's Franklin Committee, nor was its existence publicly acknowledged by the FBI; and all raid warrants were sealed by United States Magistrate Richard Kopf--the same court official who ordered to have Larry King taken by federal agents to a federal psychiatric facility for "tests," on February 7, 1990 as President George H. W. Bush was coming to Omaha for a fundraising event.

Alisha Owen testified to the Franklin Committee on June 11, 1990 that the FBI attempted to influence federal witness testimony--that her former lawyer Pam Vuchetich had come to see her in the spring: "giving a proposal from the FBI that if I recanted my story then nothing would happen to me; I could get out of prison and no charges would ever be brought against me...they would write letters to the judge asking for my sentence reduction..."

Her parents, Donna and Alvin Owen told the committee about the incident on June 21, 1990: "Q: You testified that your husband was there?...sitting in the living room, I remember...Q: Did she tell you who in the FBI made that deal, made that offer to her?...Mickey Mott...He works closely with Rick Culver and John Pankonon...

Curiously, state policeman Gary Caradori, died July 11, 1990 in a small-plane explosion, one month after FBI officials attempted to coerce a key child witness to recant her testimony--and even though a deputy sheriff first at the crash site said there was child pornography scattered all over the farmer's field and the farmer said he witnessed the plane exploding in mid-air before crashing to the ground

Johnny Gosch's mother, Noreen, said "undisclosed sources told her the FBI immediately arrived with three flatbed trucks [modus operandi of FBI and Gov. Jeb Bush confiscating 9/11 hijacker documents at Venice, Florida's Huffman flight school?], grabbed the evidence from the sheriff's hands, cordoned off the field, walked the field, picked up every piece of evidence, took the plane and all its parts and put it on the flatbed trucks, and told the peace officer, `This is confidential information and don't ever speak of it again.' The evidence has never surfaced again in Nebraska's Franklin investigation or any other investigation." [ Ted Gunderson Report , June 28, 2000]

DeCamp's book reveals more clear evidence of witness tampering and possible accessory to murder: On the evening of July 11, 1990, the day her husband crashed to his death, Sandie Caradori received several phone calls from [key Franklin child-abuse witness] Troy Boner. She wrote in her notes: "I am familiar with his voice and can be 100% assured that I did in fact receive telephone calls from him...Troy: Gary wasn't lying. He didn't tell me what to say. What I told him was the truth. (He spoke rapidly, fighting back tears) They made me take it back. They threatened me...You don't understand, they threatened me. They made me take it back. I was so scared..." [pp. 186-187]

In 1990, according to DeCamp, "Troy Boner was going to provide the information in open court, under oath, that would blow the lid off the Franklin case and force a new trial for Alisha Owen...As Troy came into the courthouse, he was immediately ushered into a private room by county judicial authorities...the hearing was delayed for one hour...Troy was in the room with a "Special Attorney" and with other officials from the prosecutor's office-- the very same prosecutorial team Troy was about to testify against."

"... Troy leaned over and whispered to me, "Oh God, forgive me. They guaranteed if I talk here today, they will put me away for twenty years...told me I would be charged with perjury for my original testimony if I opened my mouth today in court...Look what they did to Alisha...Look what they did to my brother." [found dead after playing "Russian Roulette"]

DeCamp's 2005 edition incredibly reveals, " In late 2003 [just before the 2004 election campaign started to heat up], Troy Boner [key abused child witness to national sex-ring] walked into a hospital in New Mexico screaming "they're after me, they're after me because of this book." The book Boner was waving was  The Franklin Cover-up . Boner was '... mildly sedated and calmed down...and put in a private room for observation .' "

"When nurses came back to check on him early next morning, Boner was sitting in a chair, bleeding from the mouth and quite dead. Former FBI Los Angeles Bureau Chief Ted Gunderson tried to get autopsy and other information and details that were promised him on Boner's death, but Gunderson and apparently every other entity, were totally shut out of all information. No news stories were published on Boner's death despite his "notoriety" in the Franklin case." (John DeCamp, The Franklin Cover-up ) Another witness was gone.
 
DeCamp added that the FBI had also confiscated Larry King's flight manifests from various airline charter companies, thus helping to cover up proof of sexual exploitation of children and interstate transportation of minors across state lines for sexual purposes.
 

Washington, DC: child sodomy hotbed?

Rusty Nelson's quick arrest following on the heels of Hunter Thompson's `suicide' and alleged assertions that Jeff Gannon could be Johnny Gosch may all have serious criminal implications, as Thompson and Nelson were said to be closely linked to child sexual criminality at the highest levels of government--acts still punishable by law and easily meriting cover-up attempts by powerful forces.

Paul Bonacci, forced to help kidnap Johnny Gosch into sex-slavery, also told Franklin Committee investigators he toured the White House at midnight on July 3, 1988 with Craig Spence--a lobbyist and political operative who arranged male prostitute visits to the White House but who turned up dead himself just three months after the 6-29-89 Washington Times call-boy headline. The police were quick to call a suicide.

Spence had "hinted the tours were arranged by `top-level' persons, including Donald Gregg, national security advisor to Vice-President Bush," according to the Washington Times [8-9-89], adding, "Spence, according to friends, was also carrying out homosexual blackmail operations for the CIA."

Spence and Gregg were reportedly close friends, as Spence had sponsored a dinner in Gregg's honor in the spring of 1989 at Washington posh Four Seasons Hotel in Georgetown just before the White House prostitution scandal broke at the beginning of the Bush 41 tenure. [ George Bush: The Unauthorized Biography , Webster G. Tarpley & Anton Chaitkin, Chapter 21--Omaha]

A June 30, 1989 Washington Times report said "Rep. Barney Frank, Massachusetts Democrat and a self-proclaimed homosexual who several weeks ago threatened to reveal a list of Republican homosexuals in Congress, said he was `not surprised' by the revelations."

The Times also said [8-25-1989], "A male prostitute convicted of drug trafficking and sex offenses against a minor used the Chevy Chase Elementary School in late 1987 to run his prostitution operation after the school's principal began buying sex from him."

"The call-boy was allowed to sleep and use phones in the school even after the principal left at 5 p.m., while teachers and the children were still involved in after-school activities such as chorus," said the principal, Gabriel A. Massaro, who also revealed "he had a four-year relationship with the prostitute and provided him with a guidance counselor's office and telephone at the model `magnet school' even while children were in classes elsewhere in the building."

Also according to the Times, "Massaro acknowledged that he attended a meeting between Davis and his Alexandria probation officer at the Capitol Hill home of Rep. Barney Frank, Massachusetts Democrat, another client whose home the call-boy used to perform sexual services." The paper did not reveal the age or name of the call-boy or whether he serviced Congressman Frank.

A clearly unethical and likely illegal presidential appointment was also linked to the White House child sex-ring: "In August, 1990, Bush appointed Ronald Roskens of Nebraska to head the Agency for International Development (AID). Roskens had been fired the previous year as chancellor of the University of Nebraska, where Larry King was a member of his advisory committee.

[State Police "Franklin" investigator] Gary Caradori's daily notes for February 19, 1989 record: `I was informed that Roskens was terminated by the state because of sexual activities reported to the Regents and verified by them. Mr. Roskens was reported to have had young men at his residence for sexual encounters." [ Franklin Cover-up , p.177]

DeCamp added that AID assignments have been used as a "cover" by CIA agents; and in spite of Roskens' sexual background and termination by Nebraska educators and his clear potential for being blackmailed, President Bush appointed him anyway.


Karl: `Rove'ing DC, approving 'special' WH press passes?

The extent to which White House Senior Domestic Policy Advisor Karl Rove played a part in approving the Gucket/Gannon White House press passes is not known.

However, CBS News spoke of a Rove-Gannon connection , saying  "Gannon's aggressively partisan work and the ease with which he got day passes for the White House press room the past two years make it hard to believe that he wasn't at least implicitly sanctioned by the "boy genius."

Following on the heels of Guckert-Gannon, Walter Storch, editor of the Barnes Review News reported a three weeks ago that "Karl Rove was seen by one of my people entering a private homosexual orgy at a five-star Washington hotel over the Mid-Atlantic Leather (MAL) weekend last year." [2004]

A Barnes reporter told Storch that "Karl greatly enjoyed the supervision of a certain hairy 350-lb. Leather Dominator who had won the Miss Virginia Daddy Bear title at the MAL festivities."

Storch wrote, "Karl used to hang out a JR's, which is on 17th between P & S streets, before he became so well-known. This is a respectable gay bar for discreet people...," adding, "there is an expensive apartment...over near Dupont Circle that certain powerful senators take turns visiting with their pickups."

"Bush, via Karl Rove, was projected as a moral man who would return a hedonistic America to the simpler virtues of a bygone era. A large part of the American public, unhappy with what they saw as debilitating liberalism, abortion on demand, gay marriage and other forms of moral decay, put Bush back in office," said the Barnes editor.

"Now they have to deal with rampant male whores prancing around the White House in consort with a small army of closet queens, all of whom very obviously have the ear, and the confidence, (and hopefully, that's all they have) of their `moral' choice for President," said Storch.

Interestingly, TBRNews.org also counts "one Supreme Court Justice, several governors (all Republican) and at least one very prominent televangelist" among those high officials who are saying one thing and doing another with respect to Storch's closet queen issue.

While American citizens watch, unanswered questions remain as Democrats and Republicans ignore young witnesses with clear and credible evidence--refusing to hold each other's legislators criminally accountable for their unspeakable crimes against children.

Appalling Conspiracy Of Silence Video Online

From Thrasher  |  January 9th, 2005

Conspiracy of Silence, a documentary listed for viewing in TV Guide Magazine was to be aired on the Discovery Channel, on May 3, 1994. This documentary exposed a network of religious leaders and Washington politicians who flew children to Washington D.C. for sex orgies.
 
Many children suffered the indignity of wearing nothing but their underwear and a number displayed on a piece of cardboard hanging from their necks when being auctioned off to foreigners in Las Vegas, Nevada and Toronto, Canada.
 
At the last minute before airing, unknown congressmen threatened the TV Cable industry with restrictive legislation if this documentary was aired. Almost immediately, the rights to the documentary were purchased by unknown persons who had ordered all copies destroyed.
 
A copy of this videotape was furnished anonymously to former Nebraska state senator and attorney John De Camp who made it available to retired FBI Agent Ted L. Gunderson. While the video quality is not top grade, this tape is a blockbuster in what is revealed by the participants involved.

New Leads Implicate CIA, Government Officials In Child Prostitution Ring

New Leads Implicate CIA, Government Officials In Child Prostitution Ring

KWWL 7 News | May 26, 2005

A cold case is heating up. Iowa paperboy Johnny Gosch vanished without a trace in 1982. But, now, after KWWL's story last month on Johnny's disappearance, there is new information on the case.

A private investigator working Johnny's disappearance believe his kidnapping was part of a government conspiracy. The investigator shared new evidence with KWWL and it could be the break needed to solve this case. That evidence includes a recorded phone call that has never been heard publicly, until now.

During the early morning of Septmeber 5, 1982, Johnny Gosch was kidnapped from a West Des Moines neighborhood while delivering newspapers. It was silent, quick and professional. "This man has told us that at the end of their investigation that there were 834 kids involved that were kidnapped," says James Rothstein. He's talking about a former CIA agent who must remain anonymous.

Rothstein is a former New York City police detective, now a private investigator working the case for Johnny's mother, Noreen. And within the last couple weeks, Rothstein has uncovered new evidence linking Johnny's kidnapping to child prostitution. "It basically came down to one thing and one thing only. You know, it was money. These kids were being grabbed to satisfy the malignant, twisted, you know, evil depravity of very powerful individuals who have the money," he says.

Rothstein is talking about individuals who would spend as much as $10,000 to have sex with young boys and girls. And this new evidence points to the involvement of U.S. government officials. "They were using kids to compromise people. And what better way to compromise somebody than get a young boy with a politician or some powerful person that may be in the military or whatever and then you can compromise them and get what ever you want."

Last month, people on the internet and investigators like Rothstein began to believe a man who passed himself off as a White House reporter and known male prostitute Jeff Gannon could be Johnny Gosch. And while Gannon's true idenity still can't be confirmed, Rothstein says the more clues he uncovers, the possibility Gannon may be Gosch increases, "When you look into the whole abduction of Johnny, what happened, the cover-up that took place, the way the kidnapping was done, this was a professional job and it fits the profile that I have seen over the years as a professional investigator."

Rothstein now believes the CIA was involved and tried cover it up. "They were assigned to find out if there was an agency connection to it and I am quite sure that if they found one, to make sure it was covered," he says.

And Rothstein's CIA informant says this: "We were specifically ordered to clear our name. This would make the American agency look pretty s****y, like we're all a bunch of f***ing child molesters."

We requested information from the CIA on three kidnappings, Rothstein and his CIA informant believes to be connected. The first, Johnny Gosch, the second, Eugene Martin, kidnapped on August 12th, 1984 while delivering newspapers in Des Moines.

And, Jacob Wetterling, who was kidnapped from his Minnesota neighborhood on October 22, 1989. The CIA responded to our request with this letter, denying the agency investigated any of the kidnapping cases. But, Rothstein's source says, it happened often and for big bucks, "You could order one of these kids, it was $2,500 to $3,000 up front then you had the balance of another $3,000 to $3,500 or $4,000 upon completion. In some cases, you know depending on the circumstances you can probably get them at the bargain basement price of $1,500, but most I think that we ever saw was for the bondage and the freaky s**t and that was an even $10,000 and people...these people would hand that money out like it was candy."

That's what it cost to hire a kidnapper to steal a child like Johnny off the street. And with new details like this coming to light, catching Johnny's kidnappers might actually happen. "Any police agency that would get involved in this case to this date can solve that case. The case is more solvable now, than it has even been. And that case should have been solved hours after it happened. The witnesses are out there. You yourself have found some," Rothstein says.

Those witnesses include a Black Hawk County woman who wishes to remain anonymous. She sent Rothstein this packet of information. "Johnny Gosch is mentioned in it involving something that was going on years ago in the Waterloo, Iowa area," Rothstein says.

And while Rothstein hasn't determined the significance of the possible Waterloo connection, he says it's just as important as the phone conversation he had with a CIA agent. "That's solid information with names. That's where you start investigating and that should have been done years ago," he says.

And because it wasn't, Rothstein continues to make phone calls, and work leads, hoping his next big break is the one that solves the mystery behind the disappearance of Johnny Gosch.

For the past month, Rothstein has been tracking the activities of two suspects he believes could be responsible for kidnapping Johnny Gosch. We couldn't name them in our report because it hurt the investigation. We agreed to keep their identities secret so we could tell you this story.

Canada's image lies in tatters. It is now to climate what Japan is to whaling

The tar barons have held the nation to ransom. This thuggish petro-state is today the greatest obstacle to a deal in Copenhagen

          o George Monbiot
          o guardian.co. uk, Monday 30 November 2009 19.30 GMT

When you think of Canada, which qualities come to mind? The world's peacekeeper, the friendly nation, a liberal counterweight to the harsher pieties of its southern neighbour, decent, civilised, fair, well-governed? Think again. This country's government is now behaving with all the sophistication of a chimpanzee's tea party. So amazingly destructive has Canada become, and so insistent have my Canadian friends been that I weigh into this fight, that I've broken my self-imposed ban on flying and come to Toronto.

So here I am, watching the astonishing spectacle of a beautiful, cultured nation turning itself into a corrupt petro-state. Canada is slipping down the development ladder, retreating from a complex, diverse economy towards dependence on a single primary resource, which happens to be the dirtiest commodity known to man. The price of this transition is the brutalisation of the country, and a government campaign against multilateralism as savage as any waged by George Bush.

Until now I believed that the nation that has done most to sabotage a new climate change agreement was the United States. I was wrong. The real villain is Canada. Unless we can stop it, the harm done by Canada in December 2009 will outweigh a century of good works.

In 2006 the new Canadian government announced it was abandoning its targets to cut greenhouse gases under the Kyoto protocol. No other country that had ratified the treaty has done this. Canada was meant to have cut emissions by 6% between 1990 and 2012. Instead they have already risen by 26%.

It is now clear that Canada will refuse to be sanctioned for abandoning its legal obligations. The Kyoto protocol can be enforced only through goodwill: countries must agree to accept punitive future obligations if they miss their current targets. But the future cut Canada has volunteered is smaller than that of any other rich nation. Never mind special measures; it won't accept even an equal share. The Canadian government is testing the international process to destruction and finding that it breaks all too easily. By demonstrating that climate sanctions aren't worth the paper they're written on, it threatens to render any treaty struck at Copenhagen void.

After giving the finger to Kyoto, Canada then set out to prevent the other nations striking a successor agreement. At the end of 2007, it singlehandedly blocked a Commonwealth resolution to support binding targets for industrialised nations. After the climate talks in Poland in December 2008, it won the Fossil of the Year award, presented by environmental groups to the country that had done most to disrupt the talks. The climate change performance index, which assesses the efforts of the world's 60 richest nations, was published in the same month. Saudi Arabia came 60th. Canada came 59th.

In June this year the media obtained Canadian briefing documents which showed the government was scheming to divide the Europeans. During the meeting in Bangkok in October, almost the entire developing world bloc walked out when the Canadian delegate was speaking, as they were so revolted by his bullying. Last week the Commonwealth heads of government battled for hours (and eventually won) against Canada's obstructions. A concerted campaign has now begun to expel Canada from the Commonwealth.

In Copenhagen next week, this country will do everything in its power to wreck the talks. The rest of the world must do everything in its power to stop it. But such is the fragile nature of climate agreements that one rich nation â€" especially a member of the G8, the Commonwealth and the Kyoto group of industrialised countries â€" could scupper the treaty. Canada now threatens the wellbeing of the world.

Why? There's a simple answer: Canada is developing the world's second largest reserve of oil. Did I say oil? It's actually a filthy mixture of bitumen, sand, heavy metals and toxic organic chemicals. The tar sands, most of which occur in Alberta, are being extracted by the biggest opencast mining operation on earth. An area the size of England, comprising pristine forests and marshes, will be be dug up â€" unless the Canadians can stop this madness. Already it looks like a scene from the end of the world: the strip-miners are creating a churned black hell on an unimaginable scale.

To extract oil from this mess, it needs to be heated and washed. Three barrels of water are used to process one barrel of oil. The contaminated water is held in vast tailings ponds, some so toxic that the tar companies employ people to scoop dead birds off the surface. Most are unlined. They leak organic poisons, arsenic and mercury into the rivers. The First Nations people living downstream have developed a range of exotic cancers and auto-immune diseases.

Refining tar sands requires two to three times as much energy as refining crude oil. The companies exploiting them burn enough natural gas to heat six million homes. Alberta's tar sands operation is the world's biggest single industrial source of carbon emissions. By 2020, if the current growth continues, it will produce more greenhouse gases than Ireland or Denmark. Already, thanks in part to the tar mining, Canadians have almost the highest per capita emissions on earth, and the stripping of Alberta has scarcely begun.

Canada hasn't acted alone. The biggest leaseholder in the tar sands is Shell, a company that has spent millions persuading the public that it respects the environment. The other great greenwasher, BP, initially decided to stay out of tar. Now it has invested in plants built to process it. The British bank RBS, 70% of which belongs to you and me (the government's share will soon rise to 84%), has lent or underwritten £8bn for mining the tar sands.

The purpose of Canada's assault on the international talks is to protect this industry. This is not a poor nation. It does not depend for its economic survival on exploiting this resource. But the tar barons of Alberta have been able to hold the whole country to ransom. They have captured Canada's politics and are turning this lovely country into a cruel and thuggish place.

Canada is a cultured, peaceful nation, which every so often allows a band of Neanderthals to trample over it. Timber firms were licensed to log the old-growth forest in Clayaquot Sound; fishing companies were permitted to destroy the Grand Banks: in both cases these get-rich-quick schemes impoverished Canada and its reputation. But this is much worse, as it affects the whole world. The government's scheming at the climate talks is doing for its national image what whaling has done for Japan.

I will not pretend that this country is the only obstacle to an agreement at Copenhagen. But it is the major one. It feels odd to be writing this. The immediate threat to the global effort to sustain a peaceful and stable world comes not from Saudi Arabia or Iran or China. It comes from Canada. How could that be true?

Canada's Conservatives respond to Afghan torture charges with lies and slurs

http://wsws.org/articles/2009/dec2009/cana-d02.shtml
By Guy Charron and Keith Jones
2 December 2009

Canada's Conservative government has responded to testimony by a high-level diplomat implicating it and the Canadian military in the torture of Afghan detainees with a campaign of lies, slander, and half-truths.

The intensity and viciousness of the government's response is itself further evidence that Canada's government and military—and at the highest levels—are guilty of what, under international law, constitutes a war crime.

Richard Colvin, who served in Afghanistan for 17 months in 2006-7 and is currently an intelligence officer at Canada's US embassy, told a parliamentary committee last month that his superiors initially ignored his repeated warnings that the prisoners whom the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) transferred to Afghan security forces were subject to abuse and torture. Subsequently, the government tried to obstruct and silence him.

Colvin further testified that most of those whom Canada's military captured and turned over for interrogation by Afghanistan's notorious secret police, the National Directorate of Security (NDS), were not Taliban fighters, but rather ordinary Afghans who had the misfortune of being caught up in CAF sweeps.

"Many," said Colvin, "were just local people—farmers, truck drivers, tailors, peasants; random human beings in the wrong place at the wrong time; young men in their fields and villages who were completely innocent but were nevertheless rounded up."

"In other words," continued Colvin, "we detained, and handed over for severe torture, a lot of innocent people."

The government responded to Colvin's testimony—testimony it had previously sought to suppress by threatening to charge him with breaching national security laws—by accusing the career diplomat of being a Taliban dupe and of seeking to undermine Canada's military intervention in Afghanistan.

Defence Minister Peter MacKay dismissed Colvin's allegations that transferred CAF prisoners were tortured as "nothing short of hearsay, second- or third-hand information," that may have "come directly from the Taliban."

MacKay, who was Foreign Minister in 2006-7, and a cabal of senior government and military officials all claimed to never have seen or, at least, to not recall reading any of the 17 memos and reports Colvin wrote on the Afghan detainee issue, beginning in May 2006.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper speaking Sunday to CAF personnel on a Canadian battleship charged the parliamentary opposition parties with undermining the military and the Afghan counter-insurgency war by demanding a public inquiry into the Afghan detainee issue.

Said Harper: "Living as we do, in a time when some in the political arena do not hesitate before throwing the most serious of allegations at our men and women in uniform, based on the most flimsy of evidence, remember that Canadians from coast to coast to coast are proud of you and stand behind you, and I am proud of you, and I stand beside you."

Harper's crude attempt to rally the support of the military and use it to intimidate the opposition notwithstanding, the government's response to Colvin's politically devastating testimony has been somewhat more restrained over the past week.

Rather than outright character assassination, the government and military have increasingly resorted to distortions and half-truths, revolving around the claim that there was no evidence the prisoners transferred by the CAF were being abused until April 2007, when the Globe and Mail published a series of reports based on interviews with former detainees.

MacKay and the CAF top brass now concede that they did see some of Colvin's reports. Canada's current defence minister and former foreign minister also now claims that almost immediately upon assuming office in February 2006 the Conservatives were discussing the need for changes to the Canada-Afghan prisoner transfer agreement—"Obviously there were concerns about the state of the prisons"—and that Colvin's reports did, ultimately, contribute to the government's decision to renegotiate the agreement in May 2007.

Behind the shift in tactics lies the recognition that the slur campaign against Colvin—a strong supporter of the Afghan occupation—was backfiring. Even so fervent a supporter of the military and the Conservatives as the National Post editorial board called the charge that Colvin was a "Taliban stooge" an "absurd talking point." A Canadian Press Harris-Decima opinion poll found twice as many Canadians believed Colvin's charges as the government's claims that they were flimsy and not credible (51 percent to 25 percent.) And an overwhelming majority, 70 percent, said the CAF should not have transferred prisoners to Afghan authorities if they were likely to be tortured.

In testimony last week before the House of Commons committee on the Afghan war, MacKay, retired CAF head Rick Hillier, Lt.-General Michel Gauthier, the former head of CAF overseas missions, Major-General David Fraser, and David Mulroney, who was Harper's top foreign policy advisor and then his point-man on the Afghan War, all testified that Colvin's reports provided no definitive proof that persons detained by the CAF were subsequently tortured by Afghan authorities. "There was simply nothing there," declared Hillier.

This is disingenuous, to say the least.

First, while Colvin may not have been able to provide details about the fate of any specific CAF detainee—he was not privy to who they were—he did relay all sorts of information concerning the NDS's treatment of prisoners. Even more importantly, it was already well-known in Afghanistan and internationally that Afghan security forces routinely use torture. The US State Department, hardly an opponent of the US-installed government in Kabul, had even said so in publicly available documents. In an interview with the National Post, Nipa Bannerjee—who from 2003-6 headed the work of CIDA, the Canadian government's international development agency, in Afghanistan—said it was common knowledge that Afghan prisoners were abused and that she was told by another Canadian embassy official that when he raised the issue with his superiors he was ignored.

Second, as the response of the government and CAF to Colvin's memos attests, they were not interested in finding evidence Afghan detainees were being abused and tortured. Indeed, the Red Cross, which was supposed to be monitoring the fate of persons transferred by the CAF to the Afghans, complained that for months the CAF refused to even take their phone calls, let alone provide them with the information needed to identify and track down the fate of the prisoners whom that CAF had transferred to the NDS.

Third, the government, hiding behind national security concerns, is suppressing Colvin's memos as well as virtually all documents pertaining to the Afghan detainee issue—making it impossible to verify the official claims. Not only are the Conservatives refusing to turn Colvin's memos over to the parliamentary committee that heard his testimony, it is providing the Military Police Complaints Commission (MPCC), a judicial body created by parliament and which has launched an inquiry into the Afghan detainee issues, only heavily redacted—i.e. censored—versions. According to the Globe and Mail, although senior investigators with the MPCC enjoy the highest security clearance, many of the documents handed over to the MPCC by the Conservative government have so much material blacked out as to render them "unreadable."

The reality is that the CAF command, the Liberal government of Paul Martin that in December 2005 signed the detainee-transfer agreement with Kabul foregoing any right to monitor the fate of transferred prisoners, and the Harper government that implemented that agreement for close to a year-and-a-half were all blithely indifferent to the fate of any prisoners Canada's military turned over to Kabul as part of the Afghan counter-insurgency war.

In his testimony last week, Lt.-General Gauthier claimed to have "highlighted detainees as one of three critically important issues all must pay careful attention to."

This same Gauthier in May 2006 argued that Afghan detainees should not be accorded the minimum protections of the Geneva Accords. "The regulations," declared Gauthier, "... apply in an armed conflict between states, and what's happening in Afghanistan is not an armed conflict between states."

If the government made an about face a year later, it was not because it now had evidence, thanks to the Globe and Mail reports, that prisoners transferred by the CAF were being tortured; rather it was because its complicity in the torture of Afghans had been publicly exposed.

No more credible are the claims of Harper that he knew nothing of the Afghan detainee issue. The prime minister placed the Afghan War at the very center of his government's agenda, as a means of promoting a more "robust" foreign policy and an explicitly rightwing, militarist Canadian nationalism.

In a report published Nov. 22, the Toronto Star cites an unnamed "former senior NATO public affairs official" who in 2007 was deployed to Kabul, as saying that when allegations of prisoner abuse first became public in the spring of 2007, the Canadian Prime Minister's Office used a "6,000 mile screwdriver" to ensure that a "blanket denial" was issued by NATO.

"At a time when it was privately and generally acknowledged in our office that the chances of good treatment at the hands of Afghan security forces were almost zero," Harper's office "scripted and fed" a statement that read " `We have no evidence' of coercive treatment being used against detainees handed over to the Afghans."

"It was highly unusual," continued the former NATO official. "I was told this was the titanic issue for Prime Minister Harper and that every single statement that went out needed to be cleared by him personally."

Other evidence, meanwhile, has come to light corroborating key parts of Colvin's testimony.

Last week Hillier and David Mulroney took especial exception to Colvin's charge that many of those captured by the CAF in Afghanistan were not even insurgents. On Monday the Ottawa Citizen published excerpts from government documents that show NDS officials repeatedly complained that many of the detainees handed them by the CAF were not combatants. Canada's representative in Kandahar wrote Ottawa on May 15 to report on a meeting with NDS officials and the deputy warden of Kandahar's Sarpoza prison: "Concern was expressed about the absence of sufficient evidence from ISAF [NATO] forces on why detainees were captured and subsequently transferred, resulting in a high rate of release."

As intelligence-security specialist Wesley Wark told the Citizen, "If the NDS is releasing people then the only way to understand that is that the NDS is confident these individuals have absolutely no connection whatsoever to the Taliban."

Canada's Conservatives shut down parliament, again

By Keith Jones
31 December 2009

Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper has requested and received from Governor-General Michaëlle Jean an order proroguing or shutting down Canada's parliament until March 3.

The minority Conservative government's principal, albeit unstated, reason for proroguing parliament for the second time in twelve calendar months is to prevent further parliamentary hearings into the Canadian state's complicity in torture.

These hearings, despite the support of all three opposition parties for Canada's leading role in the counter-insurgency war in Afghanistan, are damaging the public stature of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and disrupting the Canadian elite's plans to advance their interests through participation in imperialist wars.

Last month, Richard Colvin, a former top Canadian diplomat in Afghanistan, told the House of Commons foreign affairs committee that the government and CAF had ignored and suppressed his repeated warnings that Afghan security forces were abusing and torturing alleged Taliban prisoners—including the hundreds of prisoners whom the CAF transferred to them in 2006 and the first half of 2007. Colvin further testified that most of those handed over by the Canadian military to Afghanistan's notorious National Directorate of Security were peasants and other ordinary folk caught up in CAF sweeps. "In other words," declared Colvin, "we detained, and handed over for severe torture, a lot of innocent people."

The government—Harper and his ministers, the top brass of the Canadian Armed Forces, and senior government bureaucrats—responded to Colvin's testimony with a campaign of disinformation and slander. They accused him of being a know-nothing and Taliban dupe, if not a Taliban sympathizer. (See "Canada's Conservatives respond to Afghan torture charges with lies and slurs")

The claims of the Conservative government and Canada's military that prior to May 2007 they had no reason to believe Afghan security forces were practicing torture were never credible. Even the US State Department had publicly acknowledged that the Afghan state routinely practiced torture.

But in recent weeks further evidence, including from CAF documents, has come to light substantiating key elements of Colvin's testimony. Meanwhile, opinion polls have shown that a majority of Canadians believe Colvin, not the Conservatives and the military and that popular support for the CAF intervention in Afghanistan has declined still further.

The termination of the current parliamentary session was announced not by Harper, but by his press secretary, Dimitri Soudas, and through a hastily organized press conference on the afternoon of December 30, that is smack in the middle of the holiday season.

This furtiveness is in keeping with the government's anti-democratic actions and intent.

By shutting down parliament, the Conservatives hope to avoid further exposure of their and the CAF's complicity in criminality. Not only is the Canadian state's complicity in torture abhorrent; it constitutes a crime under international law. Under the Geneva Conventions, it is a war crime to transfer prisoners if one has reason to believe their new captors will subject them to torture.

In Wednesday's conference call, Soudas tartly dismissed the suggestion that the government's shutting down of parliament was driven by its determination to scuttle further hearings into the Afghan detainee issue.

"The answer is no," said Soudas. "The committee … has found absolutely no evidence of wrongdoing by Canadian soldiers, diplomats and the armed forces."

In fact there is a mountain of evidence. If only a tiny portion has yet seen the light of day, it is because the government is using all the means at its disposal to suppress it.

Colvin was threatened with possible prosecution under the country's new, draconian national security laws if he appeared before a Military Police Complaints Commission inquiry, prompted by complaints from Amnesty International and the B.C. Civil Liberties Association, into the Afghan detainee issue. (The Military Police Complaints Commission or MPCC is a quasi-judicial oversight body established by parliament.)

Learning of Colvin's predicament, the House of Commons foreign affairs committee, which like parliament itself has a majority of opposition MPs, invited him to appear before it.

Other examples of the government campaign to suppress any and all investigation of the Afghan detainee issue include:

• The government's unsuccessful attempt to have the courts shut down the MPCC inquiry into the treatment of Afghan detainees on the grounds that it does not have jurisdiction in the matter.

• The government's refusal to hand over to the MPCC in timely fashion the documents it needs to pursue its inquiry; the few that have been handed over have been heavily redacted, often with entire pages blacked out.

• The government's refusal on national security grounds to provide the foreign affairs committee with the documents pertaining to the Afghan detainee issue and its subsequent decision to challenge the powers of parliament by defying a House of Commons motion instructing it to provide the committee with the requisite documents.

• A Conservative boycott of the foreign affairs committee for much of December that deprived it of a quorum and thereby of its formal powers.

The pattern is clear: the government has gone to extraordinary lengths, defying and now shutting down parliament, to derail any inquiry into the Afghan detainee issue.

Unable to explain the government's real reasons for proroguing parliament, Soudas justified it by claiming that the Conservatives want to consult with Canadians on their post-recession agenda before delivering a new budget one day after parliament reconvenes.

Harper's press secretary also noted that parliament would likely have been suspended for much of February due to the Vancouver Winter Olympics.

The only truth in all this is that the government wants to deny its political opponents a platform for the next two months. Then in the afterglow of the Olympics, which the Conservatives intend to use to whip up Canadian patriotism and showcase various ministers, they will introduce a budget. Depending on their showing in the opinion polls, this budget could well serve as the government's platform for a bid for a parliamentary majority in a spring election.

Twice in little over a year the Conservative government has resorted to shutting down parliament in an attempt to extricate itself from political difficulties.

In December 2008, Harper, through the office of the un-elected and unaccountable Governor-General and with the overwhelming support of Canada's corporate elite, carried out a veritable constitutional coup. In flagrant violation of democratic norms and parliamentary convention, the minority Conservatives shut down parliament so as to prevent the opposition from exercising its democratic right to defeat them in a non-confidence vote—and this less than two months after a national election had given no party a majority and just two weeks after parliament had first been called into session. (See: Canada's constitutional coup: A warning to the working class )

Today, by contrast, the opposition parties are not threatening to defeat the government. Indeed, Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff has all but given Harper and his Conservatives a blank check, declaring repeatedly in end-of-the-year interviews that his party has no intention of precipitating an election in 2010. The pro-Quebec independence Bloc Québécois (BQ) has for the past four years of Conservative rule repeatedly justified "conjunctural" support for the Harper government on the grounds that that is the best means to "advance the interests" of Quebec. As for the trade union-supported NDP, it came to the government's rescue last fall, abstaining on a non-confidence motion, and has repeatedly signaled its readiness to collaborate more closely with the Conservatives in the name of "making parliament work."

In Canada's British-derived parliamentary system, the government has broad control over parliament's agenda and calendar. This includes under most circumstances the right to terminate a parliamentary session.

That said, yesterday's proroguing of parliament was certainly in the service of reactionary and anti-democratic ends: to suppress exposure of the Canadian state's complicity in torture, bolster Canada's participation in the colonial-style insurgency war in Afghanistan, and lay more favorable conditions for the coming to power of a majority Conservative government committed to waging imperialist war abroad and gutting what remains of the welfare state at home.

Furthermore, it need be noted, both last year in countering the opposition's threat to oust them from office and this year in their drive to derail any inquiry into Canada's treatment of Afghan detainees, the Conservatives have openly appealed to extreme right wing forces.

Last year, the Conservatives sought to whip up Anglo-chauvinism, with their charge that the Liberals and the "socialists" (the NDP) were consorting with the "separatists" (the BQ).

In recent weeks, the Conservatives have accused the opposition of maligning the military, Harper going so far as to give a speech on a CAF ship which was clearly aimed at rallying the support of the military and using it to intimidate his bourgeois opponents. Declared the Conservative Prime Minister, "Living as we do, in a time when some in the political arena do not hesitate before throwing the most serious of allegations at our men and women in uniform, based on the most flimsy of evidence, remember that Canadians from coast to coast to coast are proud of you and stand behind you, and I am proud of you, and I stand beside you."

Liberal House Leader Ralph Goodale called yesterday's proroguing of parliament "a shocking insult to democracy." NDP Leader Jack Layton said Canada has "a serious democratic deficit in addition to a whopping economic deficit."

But these parties—which last year proposed to replace the Conservatives with a Liberal-led coalition committed to "fiscal responsibility," implementing Harper's $50 billion corporate tax cut plan, and waging war in Afghanistan through 2011—are incapable of mounting a genuine, popular and progressive struggle against the Conservatives' stoking of reaction and increasing use of anti-democratic methods.

Last year their protest over Harper's constitutional coup barely lasted 24 hours and neither party breathed a word of criticism of the reactionary office of the Governor-General and its vast arbitrary powers.

In response to the Conservatives' insinuations that they are in bed with the Taliban, the Liberals and NDP have been reduced to bleating that they "stand with the troops" and that the government's indifference to torture is "damaging the mission." In reality, the mission—stabilizing the US occupation of Afghanistan and expanding NATO into oil rich Central Asia—is itself a criminal enterprise from which torture and other war crimes necessarily arise.

Alert: "Prepare For Rebellion", Obama Orders US-Canadian Troops

EU Times


Kremlin position papers presented to Prime Minister Putin today on his
upcoming meeting with NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen state
that the European-US military alliance has authorized an `emergency
request' from President Obama to utilize American and Canadian NATO
troops to put down what is expected to be a "rebellion" after
the expected January, 2010 `declaration of bankruptcy' by the
State of California.

According to these reports, Obama's fears of rebellion are due to
the economic health of California (the United States largest State)
after the 3rd largest US State, New York, declared a `fiscal
emergency' and refused to release to its cities and towns over $750
Million due them this past week with the Governor of New York, David
Paterson, declaring "I can't say this enough: The state has run
out of money."

New York's fiscal crisis, however, pales in comparison to
California's, where new economic data points to its expected 5-year
budget deficit reaching the staggering amount of over $100 Billion which
Russian economists warn will result in budget cuts so steep as to create
`social chaos' among this States 36 million citizens.




Reports from the United States are, indeed, confirming the mass movement
of military supplies and thousands of Canadian Special Forces Troops to
California from the Canadian Forces Base of Petawawa to join their
American military counterparts, with `secondary' reports stating
that at least 1,000 tanks are massing their too.




Russian Military Analysts are further warning in this report that Obama
has decided to implement the feared RAND Corporation (one of  the most
powerful research arms of the US Military-Industrial-Homeland Security
Complex) police state `blueprint' tilted "Stability Police
Force for the United States: Justification and Creating U.S.
Capabilities" that has been modeled on the Nazi German secret police
forces organization Geheime Staatspolizei (Gestapo) meant to
`control and demoralize' any opposition to the state.

Even worse for these American people is the legalization process
currently embedded in their new health care legislation which will see
everyone of them becoming virtual slaves of their government, and as
warned about by the Fox News Service in their report titled "Be
Afraid, Be Very Afraid of Obama's Latest Big Brother Plan" and
which says:

"Under the Democrats' national health care scheme not only would
OPM be charged with overseeing and administering federal employees
health care but they will have the added charge of administering
civilian federal health care as well. What does that mean? Basically,
that Americans will be treated as "civil servants." Are you
starting to see the danger?

The more government seeks to control our lives the more Orwellian it
gets. This "big brother" mentality that "government knows
best" and that it is their mission to provide cradle to grave
"care" of its citizens will doom America as we know it. Under
such a system the individual becomes meaningless and the state becomes
the entity upon which we are all forced to rely."

Unfortunately, with or without these Americans succumbing to the loss of
their Nation through the establishment of a police state, their fate
appears to have already been sealed as new reports are showing that by
their continued saving they are failing to provide China with the money
needed through the buying of goods to purchase US bonds to keep them
afloat, and which has led to the incredible circumstance of the United
States, through its Federal Reserve and other financial entities,
becoming the largest buyers of their own debt.

Not being seen in all of these dire events by the American people is
that their present collapse as an independent Nation was engineered by
their own President Obama, who working in concert with the previous
President, George Bush, sold them out to Wall Street by packing his
administration with banking insiders have, literally, pillaged the
entire economic future of the United States for the benefit of their
elite classes and, incredibly, supported these once collapsing banks
with over $352 Billion in drug money.

And so grave has it become for ordinary Americans that new reports are
now showing that in what was once the most powerful Nation on Earth,
there now exists an `epidemic' of child hunger and one their
fastest growing cities is a tent-town of newly homeless named
"Obamaville" in a stark reminder of the thousands of shanty
towns named Hoovervilles built during the Great Depression.

For those American people believing their propaganda media reports that
a recovery is underway they couldn't be more mistaken, as newly
released data shows that of the millions of jobs lost these past 2 years
almost all of them are permanent. And, as always, these people are being
kept from knowing the full and brutal truth of their economic collapse
with reports also showing that the latest unemployment figures released
by the US government were faked.

But to the greatest fears of these Americans should be the newly
released information showing that US scientists have perfected, for the
first time in history, a new drugless technique to wipe from these
people's minds their very own memories, and as we can read:

"In a scientific experiment that brings to mind the memory-erasing
escapade in the 2004 film "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless
Mind," scientists have blocked fearful recollections in human
participants, sans drugs. The results challenge the view that our
long-term memories are fixed and resistant to change."

Russian Military Psychologists have long warned that the West's
longest term plan to control their soon to be rebellious populations lie
in memory altering techniques such as are being perfected in the United
States and due to be deployed through their mass media in radio
programmes, television, and movie broadcasts outlets as these Nations
past reliance on the drugging of their citizens through mass
fluoridation is becoming more and more ineffectual.

Important to note too is that the economic collapse of the United States
is just one of the catastrophic dangers they are facing, as this past
week the giant plant genetics company Bayer admitted in a US Federal
Court that it has been "unable to control the spread of its
genetically-engineered organisms despite `the best practices' to
stop widespread contamination" and which may very well see the
destruction of the American's ability to feed themselves as these
`monster plants' reap their destruction on Nature.

To all of these events, it is not in our knowing if the American people
will awaken from their self induced slumber to arise, as they have many
times throughout their history, to reclaim for themselves what is now
rapidly being stolen from them.  But, and if their present actions are a
predictor to what they may do in the future, one can only fear for them
as they are marched in lockstep towards an abyss they only fail to see
because they won't open their eyes.

On Canada's bank bonuses and ruling class hypocrisy

24 December 2009

The World Socialist Web Site received the following letter in response to recent reports that Canada's six biggest banks are paying out a record $8.3 billion (approximately US $7.7 billion) in bonuses this year.

According to the Globe and Mail, the bank bonuses represent an 18 percent increase over 2008 and are 4 percent larger than the previous record year, 2007.

Like the Obama administration south of the border, Canada's Conservative government has vigorously resisted calls for any regulatory limits or additional taxes on the multi-million dollar compensation packages paid Canada's top bankers. Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Finance Minister James Flaherty have justified this position by extolling the virtues of "market"-determined compensation and by asserting that Canada's banks were given no government aid to weather the financial crisis.

The latter claim is a bare-faced lie. Behind the backs of the Canadian people, the Conservative government, with the support of all the opposition parties, guaranteed unlimited financial aid to the country's banks, as well as putting into place a number of specific programs to provide them with cheap credit and other support. Under one of these, the government, through the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC), has spent more than $100 billion buying up bank mortgages.

Jack Miller writes:

The Festive Season has its consolations and Charles Dickens is one of them. The television networks invariably screen several of the excellent movies that have been made based on his novels. A Christmas Carol leads the way of course but a version of Oliver Twist usually receives an airing as well.

Set in England in the 1830's Oliver Twist tells the story of a small orphan boy raised in a "charitable" institution run as a business by its board of directors and its administrator, Beadle Bumble. The starving orphans choose Oliver as their spokesman. Oliver approaches the Beadle after supper with his empty bowl of gruel and says, "Please, sir, I want some more." The Beadle and the board of directors are outraged by this display of ingratitude, arrogance and greed. Oliver is suitably punished and assured that he is well on the road to eternal damnation.

On December 10, Canada's national newspaper The Globe and Mail published an article entitled "The moral end-run that undermines the welfare system," with more than a few echoes of Oliver Twist. Unlike Dickens, however, journalist Marcus Gee's sympathies are entirely with Beadle Bumble, aka Toronto City Councillor Rob Ford.

Beadle Ford's ire was aroused when "informants" told him that a certain Dr. Ronald Wong was "helping people fill out dietary-allowance forms to get a bump in their welfare rates of up to $250 a month." Aghast at the prospect of the undeserving poor living off the fat of the land, the worthy Councillor Ford contacted the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario and demanded an investigation.

In the interests of objective reporting Marcus Gee solemnly informs us that "Mr. Ford says he is no medical expert and repeated over and over that he is not passing judgement on Dr. Wong. `Maybe everything is legitimate and above board. He could be totally innocent.' Still, the whole business `doesn't pass the smell test.'"

The odours are made all the more suspect in Gee's opinion as welfare recipients were being referred to Dr. Wong by the Ontario Coalition Against Poverty (OCAP), an organization that has built a reputation for intervening with aggressive "direct action" tactics on behalf of the unemployed and the homeless (aka "a rabble-rousing activist group").

Mr. Gee wrote his article out of his profound concern for the plight of the less fortunate, or so he would have us believe. although there is no record of his opposing the Globe and Mail's support for the brutal 20-percent plus cut in welfare rates imposed by the Ontario government in 1995 and never restored.

"[D]odges like that," sermonizes Gee, "undermine the whole welfare system, reinforcing a public suspicion that people on welfare are out to fleece the system. Surely that is not what OCAP or Dr. Wong wants."

If the poor lose what little they get at present, they will only have themselves (and the rabble-rousing activists) to blame. No gruel for the ungrateful.

Councillor Ford's keen-scented ability to detect the dietary-allowance odours is all the more remarkable in view of the overpowering stench emanating from Toronto's financial district. The accumulated total forked out by the Canadian government to bail out Canada's banks currently stands at $125 billion. According to the Globe and Mail of December 9th the bonuses for fiscal 2009 to be paid to the top employees of Canada's six largest banks will total $8.3 billion.

The federal government insists that there has been no bank bailout in Canada. The government claims to have shrewdly wangled billions of dollars' worth of mortgage-based securities away from the banks to bless the lives of Canadians for years to come. Banking practices that appear suspect south of the border acquire a pristine and wholesome purity once they cross the 49th parallel.

The present writer admits that he is no financial expert and will happily repeat over and over that he is not passing judgement on finance minister Flaherty. Maybe everything is legitimate and above board. The bankers and politicians could be innocent as lambs frolicking in the fields. Still, the whole business comprehensively flunks the smell test.

Are the banks sure they are acting in their own best interests by raking in $125 billion of public money and immediately paying their top people bonuses of $8.3 billion? Dodges like that undermine the whole financial system, reinforcing a public suspicion that the banks are out to fleece the public. Surely that is not what the bankers and the Conservative government want.

Food Banks Canada (an umbrella organization for food banks across Canada) reported that in March 2009 just under 800,000 people walked into a food bank, 72,000 of them for the first time ever. That number will continue to grow, as economic hardship strikes at sections of the population that have been insulated from the brutal realities of poverty up till now.

To get the Festive Season off to a fitting start, Marcus Gee and Beadle Ford make it clear how much compassion and support the newly impoverished can expect from Canada's ruling elite.

DawnOne
GMO cornfields in Canada. A new European study "clearly reveals ... new side effects linked with GM maize consumption" affected the liver and kidneys, but also other organs for three Monsanto GMO corn varieties.

 

A study published in the International Journal of Biological Sciences demonstrates the toxicity of three genetically modified corn varieties from the American seed company Monsanto, the Committee for Independent Research and Information on Genetic Engineering (Criigen, based in Caen), which participated in that study, announced Friday, December 11.?

"For the first time in the world, we've proven that GMO are neither sufficiently healthy nor proper to be commercialized. [...] Each time, for all three GMOs, the kidneys and liver, which are the main organs that react to a chemical food poisoning, had problems," indicated Gilles-Eric S?ralini, an expert member of the Commission for Biotechnology Reevaluation, created by the EU in 2008.

Caen and Rouen University researchers, as well as Criigen researchers, based their analyses on the data supplied by Monsanto to health authorities to obtain the green light for commercialization, but they draw different conclusions after new statistical calculations. According to Professor Sralini, the health authorities based themselves on a reading of the conclusions Monsanto has presented and not on conclusions drawn from the totality of the data. The researchers were able to obtain complete documentation following a legal decision.

"Monsanto's tests, effected over 90 days, are obviously not of sufficient duration to be able to say whether chronic illnesses are caused. That's why we ask for tests over a period of at least two years," explained one researcher. Consequently, the scientists demand a "firm prohibition" on the importation and cultivation of these GMOs.

These three GMOs (MON810, MON863 and NK603) "are approved for human and animal consumption in the EU and especially the United States," notes Professor Sralini. "MON810 is the only one of the three grown in certain EU countries (especially Spain); the others are imported," he adds. A meeting of EU ministers over MON810 and NK603 is scheduled Monday.

From the Files of the Community Task Force on the Disappeared - Downtown Eastside of Vancouver

Memorandum on Eyewitness Evidence of the Organized Abduction, Torture, Exploitation and Murder of Women and Children on Canada's West Coast

 Synopsis

 1.     An organized system of abduction, exploitation, torture and murder of large numbers of women and children appears to exist on Canada ´s west coast, and is operated and protected in part by sectors of the RCMP, the Vancouver Police Department (VPD), the judiciary, and members of the British Columbia government and federal government of Canada , including the Canadian military.

 2.     This system is highly funded and linked to criminal organizations including the Hell´s Angels, the Hong Kong Triad, and unnamed individual "free lance" mobsters from Vancouver and the USA . It is funded in part by a massive drug trade, with which it is intimately connected.

 3.     This system is decades-old and has been supplied for many years with women and children from aboriginal reserves and residential schools, with the paid collusion of lawyers, clergy and officials of the Roman Catholic, Anglican and United Church of Canada, along with state-funded aboriginal leaders and officials of the Department of Indian Affairs.

 4.     This system is international in scope, Vancouver being one spoke in a wheel of pedophilia, sex slavery, human organ black markets, "snuff" films and violent child pornography that has outlets throughout the Pacific Rim world, particularly in China and Thailand.

 5.     This system relies upon a network of complicity extending to the highest levels of power in Canada and other nations, involving coroners, judges, doctors, clergy, politicians and social workers, as well as the media. It also relies upon a network of "body dumping grounds" and mass graves, located in remote rural areas or on aboriginal reserves and both church and Crown land, where human remains are regularly disposed of by RCMP officers.

 6.     This system is kept in place because of a practice and philosophy of tolerance and protection by the established police, judicial, military, church and governmental institutions in Canada and elsewhere.

Eyewitness #1: Caucasian woman, age forty nine, domiciled in Vancouver at 2618 West 8th Avenue , ph: 778-386-7024. Given name of witness is Annie PARKER, who claims to have personal knowledge of the allegations made herein. Statement video-recorded on 16 February 2006, in Vancouver .
 
1.     The witness states that during the spring of 2000, she was severely assaulted by an officer of the RCMP, Bruce MICHAELSON, in her Vancouver home after requesting RCMP assistance to deal with harassment from her ex-husband. MICHAELSON tortured the witness and compelled her to join what she terms "the hooker game", where she learned the facts alleged herein.
 
2.     The alleged "hooker game" is a protected system run by Vancouver police and RCMP officers in which prostitutes are arrested, drugged, raped and sometimes filmed as part of violent pornographic and "snuff" movies, in which they are tortured and killed on film. The women killed in this manner are then disposed of at special body dumping sites monitored by the police.
 
3.     The witness claims that there are two levels of the "hooker game": the simplest level involves the arrest, drugging and raping of prostitutes, then releasing them. The witness estimates that at least one-quarter of all Vancouver policemen take part in this level of the "hooker game", and that the rest of the police force as well as the Mayor and Chief of Police are aware of it. The higher level of the game involves the use of prostitutes in snuff and pornographic films, and in torturing and murdering them. While unaware of the details of the more extreme level of the game, most police know of its existence but do not betray it or its practitioners for fear that their involvement in the lower level of the game will be exposed.
 
4.     The witness claims that the drug most commonly used on victims of the "hooker game" is SCOPALAMINE, a hypnotic barbituate often termed a "rape drug", in which the victim is "zombified", obeying any command, and then is unable to remember the events for some time. However, memory can return, and the fear of this occurring has prompted MICHAELSON and other participants in the more extreme game to murder the victims and dispose of their bodies. MICHAELSON is the key actor in this body disposal system, according to the witness.
 
5.     Soon after the assault of the witness by MICHAELSON in the spring of 2000, she was taken by MICHAELSON to one of the locations of the "hooker game": a "clubhouse" for policemen in either the penthouse of the Century Plaza Hotel or in the basement of the Hotel Georgia in downtown Vancouver . Witness claims that this clubhouse hosts a "pornographic film studio where woman are raped and tortured on film". MICHAELSON is described by the witness as "a pimp and drug dealer for all the Vancouver cops and their friends ... a lot of the dealing goes on at the clubhouse."
 
6.     Witness states that MICHAELSON works out of a North Vancouver RCMP detachment and is on the city drug squad, having access to large volumes of illicit drugs that he sells to policemen and others.
 
7.     At one of the clubhouses described in Point No... 5, the witness was introduced by MICHAELSON to Willy PICTON and Steven PICTON, who ran and continue to run a pornography and snuff film business from Port Coquitlam (alias "Piggy´s Palace"). The witness was subsequently taken by Steven PICTON to the Port Coquitlam site (alias "Piggy´s Palace") on several occasions to engage in sex and drugs. At this site, she witnessed young girls being drugged and raped, including on film, after being brought to the site by RCMP officers. Witness describes seeing three RCMP officers, including MICHAELSON, at Piggy´s Palace, engaged in drugs and in raping women. Witness states that "ten of the twelve recently murdered women were last seen in the company of RCMP guys.."
 
8.     At Piggy´s Palace the witness also met Jean-Guy BOUDRAIS or BEAUDRAIS, whom witness claims is the serial killer responsible for the murder of many of the women in the downtown eastside of Vancouver over the past ten years. Witness states that BOUDRAIS is a close associate of MICHAELSON, obtains women and drugs from him, and relies on MICHAELSON to dispose of his victims after he has raped, tortured and killed them. Witness says that BOUDRAIS works for a computer programming company tied to the Canadian military or the federal government, and gives seminars in Ontario and Montreal , where he is domiciled. Witness claims that BOUDRAIS, like MICHAELSON, is a Freemason.
 
9.     Witness claims that Steven PICTON is the ringleader of the snuff film operation that formerly operated out of Piggy´s Palace, and which has now moved to an undisclosed location in Coquitlam. One of PICTON´s associates operates a front for snuff films out of a company named "Goodbye Girls" at 999 West Broadway in Vancouver . Witness claims that snuff film victims´ bodies are weighted with cement blocks and dumped in Beaver Lake in Stanley Park ..
 
10. Witness claims that a snuff film network in Vancouver involves MICHAELSON, a CBC cameraman named Gerry DUNNE associated with Pogo Productions, a film maker named Dave COLLINS who owns Lions Gate Studios, an underworld enforcer named LARRY, a porn film star named Tom TASSE, and the PICTON brothers. TASSE worked in a snuff film studio in the basement of a North Vancouver home a few blocks from MICHAELSON´s RCMP office. Snuff films sell for up to $250,000 and have eager buyers in Asian countries and the USA .
 
11. Witness was told by MICHAELSON that he acts as the main supplier of women and drugs for this snuff film network and for the "hooker game" with the assistance of three "dirty cops": a local policeman named Bob KRISKO, and two RCMP officers named DAVE and STEVEN. Both of the latter cops are associated with the Missing Women´s Task Force and use this position to prey on and rape/murder street women in Vancouver ..
 
12.  Witness claims that both DAVE and STEVEN are also associated with BOUDRAIS and have raped and murdered women with him, including Brianne VOTH, age 19, who was abducted, raped and drowned in 2004 in Coquitlam by BOUDRAIS and STEVEN, in association with a prostitute named Stella MALLOWAY.
 
13. Witness was told by MICHAELSON that either DAVE or STEVEN own a cabin that serves as a body dumping site for women killed by them, BOUDRAIS and others. The cabin is located ten minutes´ drive west of Horseshoe Bay on the Sea to Sky Highway , in a hunting camp off a dirt road. Bodies are dumped in a metal cistern at this site.
 
14. Witness states that MICHAELSON introduced her to BOUDRAIS in 2002 and BOUDRAIS abducted her and drove her to this body dumping site. When witness began screaming and claimed that others knew she was with him, BOUDRAIS returned her to Vancouver after raping her. While threatening witness not to talk, BOUDRAIS told her that he and DAVE and STEVEN murder on average four to six women every year.
 
15. After this attack by BOUDRAIS, witness began to seek outside help, including by contacting the FBI (see Point No.16 below), and as a consequence was nearly killed by MICHAELSON in retaliation. On January 9 of either 2003 or 2004, MICHAELSON broke into the Kitsilano apartment of the witness and broke her ribs, jaw and arm with a baseball bat. MICHAELSON then tied her up, put her in trunk of his car and drove her to the policemen´s "clubhouse" in the Hotel Georgia basement. MICHAELSON then said to the witness, "Now I´ll show you what we do to hookers", and proceeded to torture her with dental instruments, including on her genitalia, branding her cult-style with an insignia. MICHAELSON then told the witness "We own you now", and put her to work as a prostitute and lure to attract other women into the game.
 
16. The witness went to Vancouver General Hospital for treatment after her torture, and was treated at the Oak street clinic by a Dr. Jean McLENNAN or McLAREN. A report of her injuries was filed by this doctor with the Vancouver Police Deaprtment that same week.
 
17.  The "hooker game" receives judicial protection from at least one judge, a justice GROBBERMAN, who prior to being a judge served in the provincial Attorney-General´s office under the very man, Ernie QUANTZ, who organized a judicial cover-up on behalf of several prominent pedophiles during the 1980´s. The witness claims seeing other judges and Prime Minister Paul MARTIN at the policemen´s clubhouse in downtown Vancouver during the same evening that MICHAELSON and the PICTON brothers were present, and while drugs and prostitutes were being used. Also in attendance that evening were members of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) and Canadian military officers.
 
18. After she was attacked by BOUDRAIS, the witness phoned the FBI and asked for an investigation of BOUDRAIS, which occurred in 2005. The FBI investigators were misdirected by MICHAELSON to a false witness who shared the same first name as the witness, and as a result the FBI claimed that there was no evidence against BOUDRAIS. VPD detective Rabinovitch who assisted the FBI also claimed that BOUDRAIS could not be found even though he was circulating openly in Vancouver at the same time. One of the FBI investigators told the witness, however, that BOUDRAIS´s description matched those of the Green River Killer, a serial rapist and murderer in the USA who is still at large.
 
19. Witness claims that MICHAELSON provides security for foreign diplomats in Vancouver and film industry stars, including Eddie MURPHY, to whom MICHAELSON introduced the witness in 2002. Witness claims that MURPHY raped and sadistically assaulted her, slicing her skin with a knife and leaving permanent scars on her shoulder and neck. (see videotaped interview)Witness states that MURPHY was also responsible for the death of two women during the years 2002-3 in Vancouver : a 21 year old Asian porn actress and a prostitute, both of whom were provided to MURPHY by MICHAELSON, and whose bodies were disposed of by the latter after MURPHY had tortured and raped them, and then overdosed them on drugs.
 
20.  Witness states that she reported the attack on her by MURPHY to a Detective SCOTT with the VPD, along with the claim of MURPHY´s murder of the two women, but when MICHAELSON learned of the complaint he tortured the witness with a knife, carving her neck and face, (see videotaped interview) and threatened to kill her if she pressed charges against MURPHY. Witness then withdrew her complaint. Detective SCOTT subsequently confirmed to the witness that MURPHY was responsible for the murders but they had not enough evidence to prosecute him.
 
21. Witness believes that MICHAELSON and his associates are "hunting prostitutes of intelligence" and are engaged "in a kind of ethnic cleansing ... they target Indians and girls as young as twelve or thirteen." She believes there is a connection between MICHAELSON´s network and the disappearances of aboriginal women along the Highway of Tears in northern British Columbia .
 
22. Witness states that she is kept under constant electronic surveillance by MICHAELSON and his associates, and that her apartment keys have been copied by them to allow their regular access. This is "standard procedure when it comes to women they have hooked into the game", according to the witness.
 
23. All of the facts described herein by the witness were related by her in person to Linda Malcolm, a police woman with the VPD in January of 2006, as part of the Missing Women´s Task Force. No action has been forthcoming.
 
Further background on Eyewitness #1: 
 
Annie PARKER states that she was raised in North Bay, Ontario and was used in a child pedophile ring in that city by her father, LEN PARKER, who was a prominent Freemason and newspaper editor who was associated with the NORAD military base in the same city. Annie PARKER says her father raped and tortured her throughout her childhood, and was involved in "mind control research" at the aforementioned NORAD base. He often spoke to her about the so-called "Marionette Syndrome", whereby a subject is rendered into a mentally docile puppet as the result of extreme torture and trauma. He told the witness that these experiments were being done on children at the NORAD base by American researchers, and that the local pedophile ring existed to provide test subjects to these researchers, as well as child prostitutes to judges and politicians.
 
The witness also claims that, in 1961, when she was four years old, she and an aboriginal girl named Rosemary, who was six, were abducted and jailed in a farmhouse owned by Freemasons where they were serially raped. Rosemary had been abducted from the local Indian reserve. During the rapes, Rosemary tried to help the witness escape from the barn and was caught and killed, and then her skull was displayed in the local Freemason Hall. The witness feels forever indebted to Rosemary for saving her life, and is committed to helping children like her.
 
Eyewitness #2: Caucasian woman, mid fifties, normally domiciled in Powell River, B.C. but presently living in hiding in Alberta. Given name is Dagmar STEPHENS. As a former nurse, human resources social worker and child apprehension court worker in the Powell River and Zeballos area, the witness claims to have personal knowledge of the allegations made herein. Statement made during the week of 2-7 February, 2006, by telephone.
 
1.     Witness states that she was recently forced out of the coastal community of Powell River , B.C. and had her life threatened because of her firsthand knowledge of the role of local RCMP, church officials and doctors in the murder of local women and children, and in the importation of illegal drugs and armaments from overseas.
 
2.     Witness is a former social and court worker who worked in the aboriginal community and among youth between 1982 and 2004. She was a member of the Powell River United Church until forced from its congregation by ministers Dave NEWELL and Cameron REID after she claimed that local church members were importing drugs and engaging in pedophilia. ( Note: REID was one of the two church officials who handed Rev. Kevin ANNETT his summary dismissal notice in 1995 after ANNETT began to uncover church crimes among native people  in Port Alberni)
 
3.     Witness has firsthand knowledge that Dr. Harvey HENDERSON of the Zeballos health clinic is deliberately addicting aboriginal people to a lethal drug named Oxycotin, a synthetic heroin that induces suicidal behavior. He is doing so at the behest of officials of the state-funded Nuu-Chah-Nulth Tribal Council (NTC) in Port Alberni , BC , in order for the land of his murdered patients to be bought up cheaply by NTC officers. HENDERSON has himself bought much native land on the Ahousat reserve on Flores Island , which he services as a doctor and where he freely distributes the Oxycotin drug. In 2005, all of the suicides among the Ahousats occurred while HENDERSON was working there. HENDERSON lives in Sayward , BC , north of Campbell River .
 
4.     In 2004, witness observed the unloading of drugs and armaments off a black seaplane in the Okeover Inlet near Powell River, under the oversight of Bob PAQUIN, former officer in Quebec secret police and convicted pedophile, Tracy ELKINS, former officer in the South African army, and Colin McCORMACK and Roland LEWIS, local businessmen and associates of the Mayor, coroner and RCMP. Witness claims that these men operate local drug importation with RCMP protection, and deal drugs to local youth and aboriginals. All three are local Freemasons and members of Catholic Knights of Malta , along with Stu ALFGARD, local coroner and pedophile.
 
5.     Witness claims that a similar drug drop off point is at Bliss Landing seaport and helicopter pad, north of Powell River , where Americans regularly fly in drugs.
 
6.     Witness began to run afoul of this group when, in 1986, her local youth group resolved to confront drug use in Powell River schools, and found immediate resistance to their efforts from the school administration, churches, and social services. Witness then asked parents and local police to support them, which they did; an undercover squad of police began to monitor the activities of aforementioned suspects. But within one year, during 1988, all seven of these undercover policemen died, including head cop Bruce DENNISTON, and their deaths were all ruled as being caused by cancer by coroner and pedophile/drug importer ALFGARD.
 
7.     Witness claims that in 2002, a local Anglican minister named KAREN died suddenly after speaking out publicly about the role of the local Masonic Lodge in suspected drug dealing and pedophilia. Her fellow activist in this exposure, Foursquare Baptist church pastor Gord FRALIC, quickly moved out of town after KAREN´s death and relocated to Kelowna ..
 
8.     Witness is presently residing in Alberta in fear of her life, after being directly threatened and attacked by Tracy ELKINS, former South African army officer and principal drug dealer in Powell River area. Witness states that ELKINS assaulted her and drugged her son after witness continued to investigate local drug importing networks. Witness claims that BC politicians and Powell River residents Gordon WILSON and Judy TYABJI were made aware of all of these facts and declined to support her or the anti-drug educational work of her youth group.
 
Eyewitness #3: Aboriginal man in his mid forties, resident and maintenance worker employed at the Musqueam Indian Reserve off 51st Avenue on the west side of Vancouver , adjacent to the University of British Columbia . Given name of witness is Leslie GUERIN; domiciled at 3908 KeKait Place , Vancouver , cell phone No.: 778-772-5640. Initial statement made on videotape during the period 9 May - June 6, 2005, with additional statements made during period of 3 December - 18 January, 2006, in Vancouver ..
 
1.     Witness is a member of the Musqueam First Nation in Vancouver who has worked as a maintenance worker and labourer on the Musqueam Reserve since 1990. He is a confidant and associate of many Musqueam officials and politicians. In this position, witness claims to have firsthand and personal knowledge of the allegations he makes herein.
 
2.     Summary of allegations of witness: The Musqueam Reserve has operated as a mass grave and body dumping site since at least 1989. It is also a center of illegal drug and armaments importing through the adjoining Celtic Shipyards, and is connected to native-run pedophile rings that extend to northern B.C. and southern Alberta . The Musqueam band council leaders, especially the GUERIN, SPARROW and GRANT-JOHN families, are involved in these criminal activities in conjunction with officials of the RCMP, the First Nations Summit and the federal government of Canada . The government provides political and judicial protection for these crimes since the pedophile and body disposal activities by the PICTON brothers and others take place at the behest and in the interest of the government of Canada . The government and police also side with and protect the SPARROW and GUERIN families in their efforts to attack and undermine other families at Musqueam in
order to seize their land and other effects, even when these methods result in deaths. One of these methods of terrorizing other Musqueams utilized by the SPARROW-GUERIN- JOHN clique is to seize their children and transport them off the reserve, including into pedophile rings connected with the provincial government´s Ministry of Children and Families. This clique conducts criminal activities on the Musqueam reserve, including drug dealing, strong-arming of dissidents or critics, illegally selling salmon and other fish as well as cigarettes and alcohol, wrongfully evicting band members from their homes and disentitling them of their land and DIA payments.
 
3.     Witness claims that the Musqueam Reserve has functioned as a body-dumping and mass burial site since at least 1989, when he personally observed Willie PICTON deposit and bury large garbage bags in a pit directly opposite the Musqueam First Nation office on the reserve. (See his statement, Exhibit A).Witness claims that he subsequently disinterred the contents of these bags and found numerous bones that upon examination proved to be human, including parts of pelvis, skull and femur. Witness retains samples of these remains in his possession while other samples, including an adult female humerus, are held at Simon Fraser University ....         
 
4.     Corollary evidence of this allegation was provided by the witness in the form of a letter (Exhibit B) by Musqueam Housing Officer A. Glenn GUERIN dated 29 October 2004, which states that Dave PICTON, brother of Willie, was employed by the Musqueam band under contract for three of four months during 1989 or 1990, to provide land fill for a street extension.
 
5.     Witness states that the activities of Willie and Dave PICTON on the Musqueam reserve were fully known and approved by all the band councilors at Musqueam, including Wendy SPARROW, aka Wendy GRANT-JOHN, federal Department of Indian Affairs official and wife of accused pedophile-drug dealer Chief Ed JOHN, who is domiciled at the Musqueam reserve and owns adjoining Celtic Shipyards.
 
6.     Witness reported the activities of the PICTON brothers at Musqueam in 2002 to the Vancouver police (VPD), after the " Piggy Palace " story was reported in local media. But Ed and Leona SPARROW stopped the subsequent police investigation of the remains deposited at Musqueam by the PICTONs after arranging a cover-up with VPD Constable Scott ROLLINS (Badge #2028) and officer Jodine KELLER. Leona SPARROW was also seen attending parties at the PICTON´s "Pig Farm" in company of RCMP.
 
7.     The following media were contacted by the witness and informed of the remains deposited by the PICTONs at Musqueam, but declined from investigating: Mike CLARKE, City TV, Kelly RYAN, CBC radio, Gerald BELLETT, Vancouver Sun, and Karen Urguhart, The Province. Also notified by witness was William MACDONALD, Office of the Police Complaints Commissioner in Vancouver .
 
8.     After more than two years, on November 3, 2004, witness and fellow Musqueam band member Jim KEW made a formal complaint to the VPD Complaints Commissioner about the refusal of police to investigate either the burial site at Musqueam or the apparent role of the PICTONs in burying the remains. (Exhibit C) No response has been received from the VPD at any level.
 
9.     Witness reports seeing Uzi guns and other automatic weapons being unloaded from containers at Celtic Shipyards, 3150 Celtic Avenue , in the summer of 1988, under the supervision of SPARROW relatives Joe BECKER and Wayne GUERIN. BECKER spoke to witness at the time and referred to the importing of drugs through the same shipyard in vessels using false bow fronts. Witness worked as a security guard at Celtic Shipyards between 1995 and 2001, and observed similar unloading of guns and drugs during these years.
 
10. Witness claims that same Joe BECKER works as an enforcer for Musqueam band officials, including the GUERIN and SPARROW families, along with Walter Dunstan CAMPBELL, whom witness says was arrested with the body of a dead woman in his car trunk, but was quickly released. CAMPBELL also operates protection system for child porn film operation at Carrall and Hastings streets, which in 2004-5 operated behind the front of a bank..
 
11. Witness claims that other Musqueam officials involved in this child porn film operation include Robert GUERIN, Andrew CHARLES, Frank and Jason MALLOWAY (see Point No. 12 in Testimony #1, re: Stella MALLOWAY), a non-native drug dealer named "DA SILVA", and Chief Ed JOHN. CHARLES, JOHN and CAMPBELL, along with Ed SPARROW, were responsible for the gang rape and beating of Marlon LOUIE, a band member, during 2003 after LOUIE had discovered a "hit list" of the Musqueam "goon squad" headed by Joe BECKER and Walter Dunstan CAMPBELL .
 
12. BECKER and CAMPBELL head this enforcement "goon squad" on Musqueam reserve that includes former Canucks hockey player Gino OJICK, who owns Musqueam Golf Course Café. Witness claims that OJICK attempted to kill him with poison in 2002 after witness went to the VPD with allegation about PICTON brothers´ activities at Musqueam.
 
13. Witness claims that the main security officer for the Musqueam reserve, ex-Edmonton policeman David LAVALLEE, is part of this enforcement/ goon squad. LAVALLEE left the Edmonton police under a cloud of suspicion concerning his involvement in the rape and disappearance of local women and children.
 
14. Witness claims that the members of this enforcement/ goon squad are responsible for the deaths of numerous Musqueam band members, often through staging fake car accidents or executing people with drug overdoses. These deaths occur in order to seize the homes and land of the murdered persons, and secure the power of the SPARROW-GUERIN clique. One such murder occurred in 2000 when a young native woman named GANARJEE was evicted for not being able to pay her property taxes, which had been wrongfully increased by the GUERIN-SPARROW clique. She then became homeless on Hastings street , was addicted to drugs by CAMPBELL , and then "overdosed" and died. The SPARROW family then received her home and property.
 
15. Witness claims that GANARJEE´s property was seized by lawyer Marvin STORROW of Blake, Cassells and Graydon law firm in Vancouver , who works closely with the SPARROW clique and their relative Chief Ed JOHN. (Note: STORROW represented JOHN in a 2002 BC Supreme Court lawsuit that silenced JOHN´s critics and imposed a gag order on any media reporting of the accusations of criminal actions by JOHN. )STORROW has a long history of involvement with the Musqueam band and the SPARROW family (see Exhibit D) and has strong ties with the federal Liberal party. Leona SPARROW who is associated with the PICTONs and concealed their activity at Musqueam (see Point No. 6) has worked for STORROW´s law firm.
 
16. Other lawyers and firms associated with the SPARROW clique and their activities include Lou HARVEY and Smithe-Radcliffe law firm. HARVEY is an old associate of STORROW and has helped to steal and illegally transfer Musqueam land into the control of Squamish politicians working for the federal government.
 
17. Witness claims that the SPARROW clique evade federal laws limiting the  commercial sale of salmon by aboriginal people, and completely monopolize an illegal blackmarket in fish operating out of the Musqueam reserve... Wendy GRANT-JOHN (a former SPARROW) operates her own fish store, Longhouse Seafoods in the Dunbar region of Vancouver , which illegally sells sockeye and other salmon. The enforcement/ goon squad silence band criticism of these acts.
 
18. Similarly, in a written statement dated December 26, 2005, the witness claims "For the record, all the elders whom have died, it´s Wendy´s family (who) lives in each and every home that comes from another unexpected death ... they (the SPARROW clique) have a group of people monitoring each band member and so they wait for a window of opportunity to strike. They pick targets in the community and slowly tear them apart - dilibritly destroy lives."
 
19. The witness has drawn three separate maps of the Musqueam reserve that identify the location of two major body dumping and burial sites (Exhibit E, 1-3).
 
 
Witness #4: Retired aboriginal man in his late fifties, a band councilor and member of the Musqueam band and a friend of Witness #3. Given name is Arthur STOGAN sr, he is a direct descendent of the hereditary chiefs of the Musqueam people. Resides on the reserve, phone 604-263-6295. His lifelong residence at Musqueam and involvement as a band councilor gives him a personal knowledge of the facts he alleges herein. Initial statement made on videotape during the period 9 May - June 6, 2005, with additional statements made during period of 3 December - 18 January, 2006, in Vancouver .
 
1.       Witness affirms all that witness #3 alleges in his statement, adding that he and his extended family are being targeted by the SPARROW clique for their opposition to the crimes described. In particular, witness claims that his grandchildren have been deliberately seized by Ministry of Children and Family (MCF) officials and sent into foster homes operated by known pedophiles in order to silence the witness and force him into conformity. ( See Exhibit F) (Note: MCF was run by SPARROW relative and Musqueam enforcer Ed JOHN during 2000-2001 when he served in the provincial government after being appointed, though unelected, to the cabinet of Premier Ujjal DOSANJH)..
 
2.       Witness claims that after the death of his father, Vincent STOGAN, the hereditary chief of the Musqueam, in 2000, attacks against he and his family were made by the SPARROW clique on the reserve, especially after the witness began to speak out against that clique´s corrupt and nepotistic practices. These attacks culminated in February of 2004, when all fourteen of the witnesses´ grandchildren were seized by Xyolhemeylh, the Child Protection Society of the Sto"lo First Nation near Chilliwack . Witness was denied any visiting rights, even though one of his grand daughters was placed in the home of a convicted pedophile by Xyolhemeylh worker Loretta ROSZA, who also falsified reports and made false claims about the children. ROSZA is associated with Wendy GRANT-JOHN (SPARROW) through the Sumas First Nation. Both the Chilliwack and Mission detachments of the RCMP refused to investigate complaints by the witness regarding these
actions. (Exhibit F)
 
3.       Witness states that another reason for this attack on he and his family is his discovery of evidence that the present SPARROW clique and their relatives cooperated with the federal government in destroying traditional records and histories of the Musqueam and Coast Salish people during the 1970´s, as part of the effort to ethnically cleanse west coast aboriginal people and steal their land. A letter from the Department of Indian Affairs dated September 22, 1972 states that individual records of native people in B.C. were to be destroyed under the scrutiny of Chief Clarence Joe, a SPARROW relative. (see Exhibit G)These records included evidence of original land ownership and genealogy..
 
4.       Witness states that there is a direct link between criminal and pedophile networks involving aboriginal politicians in both Musqueam and Cowichan nations because of traditional kinship ties across Georgia Straight. Witness claims that Joe BECKER, Delbert GUERIN and Andrew CHARLES are linked to Cowichan chiefs who are heavily involved in the drug trade, illegal fishing and pedophile rings operating out of Nanaimo , centred around the HARRIS family of the Chemainus First Nation.
 
5.       In December of 2005, the witness compiled these allegations into a letter to Amnesty International, and sent with this letter forensic samples of the alleged human remains unearthed by Witness #3 at the Musqueam burial site visited by the PICTONs. This letter and package were returned to the witness unopened. Both witness and Witness #3 live in daily fear for their lives.
 
 
Witness #5: An aboriginal man, age fifty five, who is traditional hereditary chief of the Chemainus Nation in Oyster Bay , BC , on Vancouver Island. Given name is Steven SAMPSON jr., he resides on his traditional family land near Shell Beach .. He has lived all of his life in proximity with the people described in his statement, and as a traditional chief and a former activist in the American Indian Movement and the Red Power Movement, he has direct and personal knowledge of the facts alleged herein. Statement made during the period 3-19 June, 2005, in Shell Beach .
 
1.             Witness claims that the present leadership of the Chemainus First Nation is deeply involved in illegal activity, and are responsible for murders on the local reserves. This leadership revolves around George HARRIS and George, Ed and Peter SEYMOUR, whom witness claim operate the local drug and child trafficking and child porn networks in conjunction with Nanaimo criminal Willie CURRIE. CURRIE operates a local equivalent of the PICTON "Pig Farm" in a house on Jingle Pot Road in Nanaimo , where he has raped and murdered numerous young girls, including Lisa Marie DEYONG in 2004.
 
2.             Witness states that George HARRIS is closely connected to the GUERIN-SPARROW clique in Musqueam, and engages in illegal fishing and drug importation practices with them across Georgia Straight. The parents of HARRIS, Irene and Lawrence HARRIS, were Catholic church-sponsored "watchmen" who transported children into the Kuper Island Residential School during the 1940´s and `50´s, and who were descended from collaborating puppet "chiefs" set up by Catholic missionaries in the 19thcentury.
 
3.             Witness claims that the HARRIS clique have tried to force him and his family off their land for years, through physical intimidation, murder, poisoning their water, and attempting to kill off the SAMPSON blood line through involuntary sterilizations inflicted on both of the witness´ sons, Troy and Steve, at Royal Jubilee Hospital in Victoria, BC.
 
Witness #6: Aboriginal woman in her mid-fifties, given name is Bernice WILLIAMS (native name SKUNDAAL), of Haida and Nuu-Chah-Nulth ancestry. Member of the Downtown Eastside Womens´ Centre in Vancouver, and an activist since the 1970´s with native and womens´ groups across B.C. Statement made on April 3 and April 28, 2006, in Vancouver, B.C.
 
1.     Witness claims that a senior Vancouver police officer named Dave DICKSON is responsible for the rape and murder of numerous aboriginal women in the downtown eastside. DICKSON holds a senior position of responsibility in the Missing Womens´ Task Force and is very prominent in the downtown eastside of Vancouver, serving on community liaison boards.
 
2.     Witness claims that she has been attacked on several occasions by policemen and women associated with DICKSON because of her investigation into the missing women. In February, 2006, witness was attacked without warning by five policemen in an alley of the two hundred block east Hastings , was struck in the head, pepper-sprayed and handcuffed, and was being forced into a police van for a "midnight ride", during which she expected to be killed. Witness screamed for help and a local resident saw the attack, and raised a furor, at which point the police let the witness go. A similar attack and near-murder was inflicted on witness' co-worker, Carol MARTIN.

 
3.     Witness confirms the statements of Witness #1, Annie PARKER, concerning the identity of Bruce MICHAELSON and other police connected to the disappearance, torture, rape and murder of women in Vancouver.
 
4.     Witness claims that the disappearance of Vancouver aboriginal women as part of the aforementioned "Hooker Game" is directly connected to the murder of women in northern B.C. along the so-called "Highway of Tears", and is being actively covered-up by government, judges and police in B.C.
 
5.   Witness claims that she and her associates at the Downtown Eastside Womens´ Centre (DEWC) face continual harassment by the police and by former DEWC senior staff, some of whom actively resisted their efforts to expose the murderers of aboriginal women in Vancouver . Witness claims that these staff and others are aware of the identity of these murderers and are working with city police and others to conceal their identity.

6. Witness claims that the disappearance of women in the downtown eastside is related to the drug trade which is heavily controlled by the Vancouver police, the RCMP, and their underworld associates. Drugs are imported from overseas, especially from Asia, in magnetic containers attached to the outer hulls of deep-sea vessels moored at Ballentyne Pier on Vancouver's waterfront. The unloaded drugs are supervised by police and loaded into ambulances driven by Vancouver paramedics.

7. Witness also claims that many of the disappeared women were Indian residential school survivors, and were killed because of their knowledge of the involvement of church and government officials in the deaths of children in the residential schools... Witness mentions at least one murdered woman, Ms. Obotsway, who was threatening to "tell all" about such murders just before she disappeared in the summer of 1998, after she attended a session of the UN affiliated Tribunal into residential schools organized by Kevin ANNETT.

Witness #7: Aboriginal woman, now deceased, age seventy three at time of her demise. Given name was Harriett NAHANEE, native name Tsebeoilt, of the Squamish native band in North Vancouver. Witness died in Vancouver prison in February 2007 after being arrested soon after mounting a legal challenge against the government-funded Squamish band council for their alleged illegality in selling off land without permission for 2010 Olympic "Sea to Sky" highway. Interviews were conducted over a four year period during 1995-6, and then again 2001-2003.

1. Witness claimed that she witnessed the murder of a fellow student while incarcerated at the United Church residential school in Port Alberni, BC, December 24, 1946. Victim's name was Maisie Shaw, age 14, murdered by Principal Alfred Caldwell. (Vancouver Sun, December 18, 1995) Witness claimed that many children at the Alberni school were used in pedophile rings involving senior church and police officials, and that this ring continues to the present day and in Vancouver, is based out of the elite Vancouver Club at 915 West Hastings.

2. Witness claimed to have witnessed the transportation of two children from her home Squamish Indian reserve to the backdoor of the Vancouver Club on an evening in February, 1999. A white stretch limosine picked up two local native children, ages eight and nine years old, wearing heavy makeup, and was followed by NAHANEE and aboriginal reporter Noel LITTLE to the rear of the Vancouver Club.. Witness departed, but the site was monitored by LITTLE until approx. 3 am, when both children appeared form the back door carport entrance of the Club. They appeared hurt and disoriented. LITTLE attempted to speak to and interview the children. He was quickly grabbed from behind by unkown assailants, knocked unconscious, and his tape recorder was stolen. The children vanished and were never seen again.

3. Witness claimed that several Squamish band council chiefs and staff members are actively involved in providing children from their reserve to the Vancouver Club pedophile ring, and receive judicial protection from Supreme Court judges ESSON and MACEACHERN. Witness claimed that native lawyer Renate AUGER had the Vancouver Club infiltrated in the fall of 1993, and obtained photographs of ESSON engaged sexually with a young boy under ten years old. AUGER was subsequently disbarred and her life was threatened, she fled the province and the photos disappeared.

4. Witness claimed that in the fall of 1998, after speaking at the U.N. Tribunal into residential schools, she was approached by a man named James CRAVEN and offered money if she would publicly denounce her ally, Kevin ANNETT, and join a government-sponsore d "black ops" smear campaign against ANNETT. CRAVEN told witness that he had received FBI training in surveillance and had worked with undercover groups monitoring the Vancouver Club. CRAVEN confirmed to witness the pedophile activity at the Club and spoke of his knowledge of the involvement of United Church lawyer and national church official Jon JESSIMAN in the Club pedophile ring. (JESSIMAN led the campaign to expel and defrock Kevin ANNETT from the United Church after ANNETT uncovered the link between the Alberni residential school sex ring and the Vancouver Club, while a minister in Port Alberni.CRAVEN continues to incite people against ANNETT with classic smear tactics and misinformation) .

--People, these criminals MUST be exposed, stopped & brought to justice! It is EVERYONE'S responsibility to expose this kind of EVIL! Our society, & indeed, our very survival depends upon it.
 
Yes, even the so-called "New-Agers", who so readily turn there back; choose to ignore; or put on their "rose colored glasses", and so naively proclaim that it is "negative", or it is "not part of my reality!"
Well, guess what? It IS part of your reality - and you have a duty to expose it - or you become a party to it - further, you are perpetuating  the crime by ALLOWING it! (So forget what the New Age Teachers tell you - they are selling you a damaging pack of lies!)
 
And, still others proclaim that: "It is their Karma" or "they chose this situation in this life" - and so the mantra goes...Well this may well be true BUT,  THEY DID IT FOR US - don't you see? They have sacrificed themselves to these horrifying experiences, that we may see the difference between right & wrong!
Are you going to let their incredible sacrifice go to waste - without speaking out against these atrocities?! ?!? Do you want that black mark on your Soul?
Because IF you do choose to ignore this evil - then indeed you can expect your "karma" (that you all love to speak of), to come up and bite you in the ass - and you (or your sister or daughter or wife), will then fall victim to the same crimes that you ignored!
 
This is how we learn our lessons (or not?!?), it's up to you. 
 
Please ponder hard on these questions people - you who would turn a blind eye, so as to not "rock the boat"
As always, the choice is yours.
Now go ahead and make the RIGHT choice - the obvious choice. --Luke 3:16

While the news media sleeps


The most accurate, balanced, non-hysterical account of the ongoing government and media manufactured swine flu scam.

Source: A doctor of public medicine who has become a nun and is living in a monastery in Spain. Her talk is in Spanish with English subtitles.

She's a bit long winded, but she is very thorough, very specific and very admirable in her no-nonsense approach to what is revealing itself to be an outrageous fraud being perpetrated by the World Health Organization, the pharmaceutical industry, the news media, and so-called "governments" around the world.

Bottom line:

1. The 2009 swine flu is proving to be significantly LESS lethal than even a normal mild flu season.

2. It is not a new flu. This type of flu has been seen before - and it was not the end of the world.

3. It is completely unprecedented to require that people take THREE separate shots to deal with a flu.

4. The World Health Organization has completely changed the definition of the word "pandemic," setting the bar so low that three people in one town with a runny nose qualifies (I'm exaggerating, but not by a lot.)

5. Nations have handed over their sovereignty on public health matters to WHO without public discussion.

6. Substances added to these shots (like squalene) are being added to stretch and boost what is being sold as a "limited" supply of the virus. The science behind this is dubious, but that last time squalene was used in vaccinations in large numbers was Gulf War I. It caused thousands of cases of neurological injuries.

7. Last but not least, there's no history of swine flu ever mutating. If it does, this time, it will be a first. If WHO was able to predict the mutation months in advance, then it will be a first in the history of science. Finally, it it does mutate that means that all the "vaccine" manufactured to date is useless, but watch...

Odds are a mutation will be presented as grounds for everyone being required to get the vaccination series.

This story proves two things:

1. The news media, by dong NOTHING to expose this scam, has completely lost any last shred of credibility it might have had remaining.

2. If you need to find out what's really doing on, research it on the Internet. Don't expect to find out about it on TV or in the newspaper. If it's important, do your own homework.

Police State Canada 2010
and The Dark Side Of The Olympics

By Dana Gabriel, on
10-14-2009
The 2010 Winter Olympic Games
will be held in Vancouver, British Columbia, from February 12-28.

It will be the largest
security operation in Canadian history. Military planners will undoubtedly use
it as a template for securing future high profile events. Canadian security
officials continue to work closely with their American counterparts in
preparation for the test that the Games will pose to the security of its shared
border. Integration of Canada's security and military structures with the U.S.
have already been advanced through the North American Aerospace Defence Command
(NORAD), NORTHCOM, the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP), the
Bi-National Planning Group, the Civil Assistance Plan, as well as other
initiatives. Training and security provisions for the Olympics might be used to
further accelerate the merging of U.S-Canada command structures and the
militarization of North America. The 2010 Olympics will be a hellhole of police
state measures with far-reaching effects that could remain in place long after
the Games are finished.

Security planners have followed a graduated
process in preparation for the 2010 Olympic Games. This includes the Olympic
Integrated Exercise Program which "is designed to ensure coordinated responses
are sufficiently tested in preparation for incidents that might arise during the
2010 Winter Games. The program has three key components." Exercise Bronze was
held in November 2008. It brought together all agencies involved with security
for the games and examined security structures. Exercise
Silver was held in February of 2009 and "focused on information- sharing
across government and non-governmental agencies" as well as providing "safety
and security participants with hands-on experience." Exercise Gold is scheduled
for November of this year and will confirm readiness for the Games. There has
been questions whether
Exercise Gold would involve American forces. The Canadian Defense Department
has responded, "Yes. NORAD is a bi-national command that includes both Canadian
and American personnel and equipment. NORAD will be participating in exercise
Gold. Various US military headquarters and operations centres will be exercising
with Canada Command during exercise Gold, through exercise Determined Dragon (a
Canadian Forces exercise) and exercise Vigilant Shield (a US military exercise).
In addition, a small number of US military liaison officers will be
participating with Joint Task Force Games."

In September of 2008, the 2010
Winter Olympics security preparations spending bill was passed by the U.S.
House of Representatives. This included funding for construction of the Olympic
Coordination Center in Bellingham, Washington. Members of the 2010 Olympic
Security Planning Committee have stated that, "The 2010 Olympics Security
Coordination Center will coordinate the security efforts for over 40 federal,
state and local agencies on the U.S. side of the U.S. – Canadian border. This
facility will provide a strategic response platform to facilitate critical
response efforts during the Olympic Games and beyond". In September of this
year, NORAD conducted Exercise
Fabric Virgo, which involved CF-18 fighter jets flying at low altitudes and
escorting civilian-looking aircraft. This exercise was designed to familiarize
NORAD personnel with operations in the Vancouver area. There are numerous other
drills and exercises which are planned before the Games begin or have already
taken place. Some have not been made public. Training for the Olympics and the
actual security operation could be used as a pretext for the further
militarization of North America. It could also advance the merging of
U.S.-Canada military and security structures. As part of the SPP, there were
calls for a North American security perimeter.

The entire security
operation for 2010 Vancouver Olympic Winter Games is being overseen by the Royal
Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). This will include over 5000 RCMP officers, along
with an additional 1800 other police from municipal, regional and provincial
units from across the country.. Canadian Forces will provide maritime security,
logistical support and surveillance. This could include the use of unmanned
drones which are now being used along the U.S.-Canada border. Some 4500 Canadian
soldiers will also be deployed for various security purposes. This is twice the
number of troops that Canada has in Afghanistan. The U.S. is set to contribute
Coast Guard and Navy vessels. NORAD
will be a key player in Games security. They will patrol the skies and
monitor the airspace over the Olympics. In addition to police and military,
there will be up to 5000 private security personnel. Olympic venues will be
designated as special security zones. This will include electronically monitored
fencing and other measures similar to security screening at airports.
Surveillance cameras will also monitor venues and public areas using
face-recognition technology. Some residents of Whistler, B.C., which will host
skiing and other events, have complained that it feels like they are already
living in a security zone. The Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) is
working with the RCMP and other federal agencies in evaluating and monitoring
security threats and have warned of the potential for violence by anti-Olympic
activists.

In advance of the 2010 Games, anti-Olympic groups have been
subjected to surveillance and harassment by police and intelligence agencies.
There is a concerted effort to curb any protests during the Olympics and
restrict the right to freedom of assembly and freedom of speech. City of Vancouver 2010
Winter Games By-laws will limit protesters to specific free speech zones.
They will prevent anyone who is not licensed to do so, from carrying signs or
handing out materials on or near Olympic venues and other designated city
property. Violators could face huge fines or jail time.. A lawsuit
has been filed which challenges the Olympic sign law. It was filed by Chris
Shaw, a professor at the University of British Columbia and student Alissa
Westergard-Thorpe. Shaw is an outspoken critic of the Olympics and author of the
book Five Ring Circus. Regardless of the outcome of the lawsuit, he plans to
criticize the Games with signs and the distribution of leaflets at prohibited
sites. Under another by-law possession of any voice, amplification equipment on
city property is prohibited for the duration of the Games. Many of the by-laws
are an attempt to quell dissent and give the illusion that everyone supports the
Olympics. They can only be described as unconstitutional. It will be interesting
to see if any LRAD sound cannon weapons, which were used against protesters at
the recent G20 Summit in Pittsburgh, will be deployed at the Olympics. Some of
the police state measures being enacted for the Vancouver Olympics are
temporary, but others including infrastructure, will remain in place long after
the Games are over.

There are rising costs associated with holding the
Olympics which will leave taxpayers on the hook for millions. The security bill
alone is expected to top $900-million, which is almost five times higher than
original estimates. Like previous Olympics, Vancouver will be left with a huge
deficit. This has left some local residents less then enthusiastic about hosting
the Games. Anti-poverty and housing rights groups also point to the negative
impact the Olympics have on the homeless. They are being used to impose greater
social control and rid the Vancouver city core of its poor. According to some
estimates over the last 20 years, the Olympic Games have displaced over two
million people around the world. In many ways, the Olympics have become a
political tool, a corporate driven agenda that goes far beyond the athletes and
sporting events. Much of the security surrounding the Olympics in Vancouver
seems aimed more at protesters and other so called undesirables.

Security
measures at the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Games will be an indication of what to
expect at other upcoming events. In June of the same year, Canada will host the
G8 as well as the G20 Summits. Both will attract their share of protests. Canada
is also expected to host the 2010 North American Leaders Summit where security
measures could dwarf what was witnessed at the 2007 Summit in Montebello,
Quebec. Some will recall that anarchist protesters were identified as police
provocateurs. There are fears that police could infiltrate anti-Olympic groups,
in order to stage events which would justify a crackdown during the 2010 Winter
Games. It is important to be aware of those who not only seek to demonize
peaceful protesters, but also incite angry and violent responses by police. In
some cases, police do not need an excuse as was evident at the recent G20 Summit
in Pittsburgh and this could be a prelude of what to expect in the coming year.

Hasn't the world been warming since the last ice age?

Daniel J Towsey

www.scribd.com/danieltowsey

 

So what's all this stupidity about man made global warming causing the ice to melt and is going to flood the world.

 

If that were true then I believe that the world would of been covered in water long ago.

 

Remember this. Water expands when it freezes so it shrinks when it warms. So how is that suppose to elevate the oceans.

 

So they want us to believe when the ice melts and goes into the ocean the ocean will rise. here's

a test for you. Fill a glass with ice and then top it off with water to the brim. Wait for the ice to melt and see what happens. Think of the glass as being planet earth.

 

Okay lets agree for a moment that global warming is really caused by humanity.

 

Here's some thoughts for you to consider.

 

Presently the climate gate is telling us that the whole world and every human activity including breathing has to be carbon taxed.

 

So what are they planning on doing with this huge theft?

 

What will be different after they economically enslave the whole world?

 

First Carbon is a naturally occurring thing. Plant life would never exist without it and therefore we would not have oxygen. As all green plants convert carbon to oxygen.

 

When's the last time you walked into a tall dense old growth forest on a very hot day?

 

If you had you would of discovered that trees absorb heat and dramatically cool the earths surface. When you wall into the darkness of a dense forest you'll discover that it is very cool. It is natures natural air conditioner.

 

So why has no one talked about the destruction of all the forests?

 

Why doesn't the United Nations start a world wide tree planting program to eliminate the carbon problem and why has the clear-cutting and burning of forests not been made a huge crime against nature and the survival of this planet?

 

It is known that the world has been severely deforested.

 

So the United Nations real remedy is to depopulate the world..

 

This is written in stone... Just go search "The Georgia Guidestones" and read their plan for the future and their plan to bring the worlds population to 500,000 million.

 

or go check out the united nations eugenics program of world depopulation called CODEX Alimentarius

 

please read my related article "Tap water will kill you" and read "Modern Food"

Canadian diplomat alleges troops in Afghanistan were complicit in
torture --Senior
diplomat formerly stationed in Kabul claims troops 'handed over for severe
torture a lot of innocent people' 20 Nov 2009 The Canadian government
was fending off calls for a public inquiry on torture today after allegations
from one of its senior diplomats that Canada was complicit in the torture of
Afghan detainees. Richard Colvin, who was second in command at Canada's Kabul
embassy in 2006 and 2007, said that Afghans swept up in security sweeps by
Canadian troops during that time were routinely handed over to the Afghan
intelligence services. "According to our information, the likelihood is that
all the Afghans we handed over were tortured," Colvin told Canada's
parliament. "For interrogators in Kandahar, it was standard operating procedure.
"In other words, we detained, and handed over for severe torture, a lot of
innocent people."
All Afghan detainees likely tortured:
diplomat 18 Nov 2009 All detainees
transferred by Canadians to Afghan prisons were likely tortured by Afghan
officials and many of the prisoners were innocent, says a former senior diplomat
with Canada's mission in Afghanistan. Appearing before a House of Commons
committee Wednesday, Richard Colvin blasted the detainees policies of Canada and
compared them with the policies of the British and the Netherlands. The
detainees were captured by Canadian soldiers then handed over to the Afghan
intelligence service, called the NDS. "According to our information, the
likelihood is that all the Afghans we handed over were tortured. For
interrogators in Kandahar, it was a standard operating procedure," Colvin
said. He said the most common forms of torture were
beatings, whipping with power cables, the use of electricity, knives, open
flames and rape.
Notes from Bagram
prison By James Bays 18 Nov 2009
In the past, military officials have refused to go on the record about the
number of prisoners at the jail. Brigadier General Mark Martin, the acting
commander, was more forthcoming. He told us the prison currently houses about
700 people. Of these, "about 30" were non-Afghans, and "about 5" were
juveniles... A new command has been set up, to take charge of all detainee
operations in Afghanistan, including Bagram. Of course, CJTF-435 is a US
operation, not part of ISAF (the NATO force). Many other
NATO and ISAF nations are very uneasy about Bagram and what goes on
there.
Judges 'gagged' on torture
claim --Binyam: Judges attack UK secrecy
over public documents 19 Nov 2009 Senior
judges say the foreign secretary is stopping them releasing details of CIA
interrogation techniques - even though the US has published them. The High Court
says it wants to refer to previously classified documents as part of its
judgement on the alleged mistreatment of Binyam Mohamed. Mr Mohamed says the US
tortured him after his arrest in Pakistan in 2002. The declassified material is
online - but the UK says using some of it in court would harm national security.

Lithuania: ABC News Report 'Not
Helping' Our Image --ABC News Finds Secret
"Torture" Prison for al-Qaeda Detainees at Swank Riding Academy 19 Nov 2009 A top Lithuanian official said that a report by
ABC News that it had discovered a secret CIA prison in a former riding academy
near Vilnius was damaging to his country's reputation. "Obviously, this is not
helping Lithuania's image," Foreign Minister Vygaudas Usackas told the Baltic
News Service Thursday. "Therefore it is vital that we conduct an investigation
and clear any doubts." On Wednesday, ABC News revealed the location of one of
the CIA's secret "black site" prisons, where harsh interrogation techniques
were torture was allegedly used on accused 'al-Qaeda' terrorists, in a
converted horseback riding facility 20 kilometers northeast of the Lithuanian
capital.
US to drop shooting case against
Blackwater guard Friday, 20
Nov 2009 5:35 PM The Justice Department intends to drop manslaughter and
weapons charges against one of the Blackwater Worldwide security guards
terrorists involved in a deadly 2007 Baghdad shooting, prosecutors said in court
documents Friday. The shooting in busy Nisoor Square left 17 Iraqis dead and
inflamed anti-American sentiment abroad. Iraqis have said they're watching
closely to see how the U.S. judicial system handles the five men accused of
unleashing an unprovoked attack on civilians with machine guns and grenades.
A one-paragraph notice filed Friday says only that
prosecutors have asked that the case against Nicholas Slatten of Sparta, Tenn.,
be dropped. The government's detailed request asking the judge to
dismiss the case was filed with the court and with the defendant, but was not
made public. [Obama is terrified of
Blackwater. Did Blackwater threaten to assassinate him? I mean, c'mon.
This is nuts, and transcends Obusha's usual Friday night 'bad news dump.'
--LRP]
Fine and Inquiry Possible for
Blackwater Successor --Other penalties
could result from violations of licensing requirements for the transfer of other
forms of military technology and training expertise to foreign
countries. 19 Nov 2009 The international
security company terrorist group formerly called Blackwater Worldwide is
facing large government fines for unlicensed arms shipments to Iraq, as a key
Congressional committee is asking for a separate investigation into whether the
company bribed Iraqi officials. In talks likely to result in millions of dollars
in penalties, executives from the company, now known as Xe Services, are
negotiating with government regulators over years of violations of export
laws. According to government officials and former company employees, many
of the violations involve arms shipments to Iraq, to outfit company security
guards operating inside the country.
Woman awarded $3M in assault claim
against KBR 19 Nov 2009 A woman who
claimed she was raped in 2005 while working in Iraq for a former Halliburton Co.
subsidiary has been awarded nearly $3 million by an arbitrator to settle her
case. Tracy Barker had sued U.S. contractor KBR Inc., its former parent company
Halliburton and several affiliates in May 2007, claiming she was sexually
attacked by a State Department employee while working as a civilian contractor
in the southern Iraqi city of Basra... Court records filed this week show Barker
was awarded a judgment of $2.93 million to settle her arbitration claim against
KBR.
GAO: Fraud in gov't contracts for
disabled vets 19 Nov 2009
Companies fraudulently collected at least $100
million in federal contracts from a $4 billion government program
designated for disabled military veterans who run small businesses,
congressional investigators charge. In many cases, small business owners falsely
claimed they had a service-related injury to get the federal work and were only

group described by prosecutors as plotting terror attacks on Chicago's Sears
Tower and FBI offices in hopes of sparking an anti-government insurrection was
sentenced Friday to 13 1/2 years in prison by a federal judge. Narseal Batiste,

citizens and permanent residents at least 14 years old. They would have to pay a
$100 fee and undergo a background check.
4 Tamiflu resistant H1N1 cases at
Duke --An antiviral resistance was
confirmed by the laboratory at CDC Monday night. 20 Nov 2009 (NC) Health officials announced Friday afternoon that four
patients at Duke Medical Center have shown signs of an antiviral-resistanc e to

Yup, shark livers.
What's in your H1N1 flu
vaccine? 19 Nov 2009 One of the best
examples involves a controversial ingredient present in the H1N1 vaccine:
thimerosal. Thimerosal is a form of mercury used in some vaccines as a
preservative. .. and still remains in many flu vaccines. Squalene is another
controversial component of the swine-flu vaccine. It's an oil found in animal
livers and is used as an adjuvant in vaccines and also as a moisturizer in
cosmetic products. It is primarily gotten from shark livers... Still other
questions have been raised about Polysorbate 80, another component of the H1N1
vaccine adjuvant.
FDA Panel Rejects Cell Culture Flu
Vaccine, Wants More Safety Data --In 6-5
vote, panel decided it didn't have enough safety information to recommend
approval of drug 19 Nov 2009 With members
citing unanswered safety questions, an FDA advisory panel today narrowly
rejected approval of the nation's first cell-based influenza vaccine. A small
manufacturer called Protein Sciences Corp. of Meriden, Conn. sought approval for
its trivalent seasonal influenza vaccine, FluBlok, for active immunization of
adults ages 18 years and older against influenza virus subtypes A and type B.

Fox News Poll: Worries About Safety of
Swine Flu Vaccine Persist 20 Nov 2009 A
recent Fox News poll suggests that even when the H1N1 vaccine becomes more widely available,
concern over its safety may prevent many at-risk Americans from getting
vaccinated. Nearly equal numbers are more afraid of the side effects from
the swine flu vaccine as are afraid of getting the flu itself (35 percent
vaccine compared to 37 percent flu). Many Americans also feel the testing of the
swine flu vaccine was done too quickly so its safety is uncertain (40 percent).

[Sen. Harry] Reid bill, there is a section increasing federal Medicaid subsidies
for "certain states recovering from a major disaster." The section... reveals
that it would be states that "during the preceding 7 fiscal years" have been
declared a "major disaster area." I [ABC News' Jonathan Karl] am told the
section applies to exactly one state: Louisiana, the home of moderate DemocRAT
Mary Landrieu, who has been playing hard to get on the health care
corporaterrorist giveaway bill. How much does it cost? According to the

Previous lead stories: CIA Secret 'Torture' Prison Found at Fancy Horseback Riding
Academy --ABC News Finds the Location of a "Black Site" for Alleged
Terrorists in Lithuania 18 Nov 2009 The CIA built one of its secret European
prisons inside an exclusive riding academy outside Vilnius, Lithuania, a current
Lithuanian government official and a former U.S. intelligence official told ABC
News this week. Where affluent Lithuanians once rode show horses and sipped
coffee at a café, the CIA installed a concrete structure where it could use
harsh tactics torture to interrogate up to eight suspected 'al-Qaeda'
terrorists at a time. "The activities in that prison were
illegal," said human rights researcher John Sifton. "They included
various forms of torture, including sleep deprivation, forced standing, painful
stress positions."
MI5 and MI6 given go ahead for secret hearings into
abuse 18 Nov 2009 MI5 and MI6 have been
given permission to hold hearings behind closed doors into their alleged
complicity in the treatment of seven former detainees in Guantanamo Bay. A High
Court judge ruled there was no reason in law why closed hearings should not be
used in the damages case, even though it had never been used in such a case
before. The judge said the "closed material" procedure entitled the defendants
not to disclose matters to the claimants or their lawyers where disclosure would
be contrary to the interests of national
security, the international relations of the UK or in any other
circumstances where it was likely to harm the public interest.
Judge: Corps' negligence caused
Katrina flooding 18 Nov 2009 A
federal judge ruled Wednesday that the Army Corps of Engineers' failure to
properly maintain a navigation channel led to massive flooding in Hurricane
Katrina. U.S. District Judge Stanwood Duval sided with five residents and one
business who argued the Army Corps' shoddy oversight of the Mississippi
River-Gulf Outlet led to the flooding of New Orleans' Lower Ninth Ward and
neighboring St. Bernard Parish. Duval awarded the plaintiffs $720,000, or about
$170,000 each, but the decision could eventually make the government vulnerable
to a much larger payout.

I called in Sick

Daniel J Towsey

 

www.scribd.com/danieltowsey

 

My employment required that I do everything that I was instructed and that I never reveal

my employers activities to anyone at anytime.

 

My employer would not allow me to have a conscience as to whether it was morally right to do it or not.

 

My employer's reasoning was always concerned about how can they achieve their ends and

never whether it was right to do it or not.

 

My employer behaved exactly like a crime syndicate whose only interest was for their own profit and not for the good of others.

 

My employers public appearance of goodness and

righteousness had to be maintained at all costs.

 

My employers true evil activities were never to be revealed.

 

I was a receptionist.

 

I was always the first impression

that the public received of my employer.

 

I had to maintain the most happy and pleasant face at all times.

 

The longer I did my job the more

I began to know about my employer.

 

Day after day I was confronted by people

that were harmed by my employer.

 

The people would always describe their grievances, therefore I began to really understand the evil of my employer.

 

But I had to continue being a happy cheerful greeter.

 

Over time I realized just how evil and

insane my employer really was.

 

I realized the true harm that my

employer was doing to to humanity.

 

But the image of my employer that was presented in corporate media was always one of a very honest and moral employer.

 

All this evil and deception began to make me sick.

 

I could no longer sleep will, I could no longer eat heartily.

 

I could no longer relate with my friends, family and people.

 

But I continued to go to work and smile and be

very pleasant for my employer.

 

Until one day another persons grievance was just to much for me.

 

I got so sick and threw up all over

my employers expensive marble floor.

 

I was so deathly ill from the constant

exposure to the absolute evil of my employer.

 

My moral conscience was in complete conflict

with my employers lack of moral conscience.

 

I was further weakened by the idea that I needed my job to pay for my existence of indentured servitude to the bankers.

 

I knew I could never quit until one day, I called in sick.

 

I was now on sick leave.

 

My employer required that I go to a doctor and have the doctor inform my employer as to my prognosis.

 

But I was to weak to get to my doctors office.

 

So one day came that my employer called me at home and was concerned that I was costing my employer money while I was off sick.

 

My employer said that they could not continue giving me

sick pay if I did not have a prognosis.

 

Will I gave my employer my prognosis.

 

I told my employer what made me sick.

I described my experiences as a receptionist.

 

I having a good moral conscience to

always being truthful told my employer that,

 

YOU MAKE ME SICK!!

 

My employer immediately fired me.

 

That was fine with me for while I was off sick and still employed. I went out and found another job.

 

I realized that that was the only cure to my sickness.

 

Now I am understanding why our society has become so sick.

 

In my previous employment I learned never ever again to

trust any corporate media image of anything.

 

I no longer read or watch anything that corporate media puts out.

 

I now live a wonderful and simple life.

 

I have now become psychologically cleansed.

 

And every day brings new simple pleasures.

 

I feel healthy now...

 

Everywhere I go people wonder why I am

always smiling and so extremely happy.

 

It's because I no longer do the evil deeds of my employer.

 

I wish everyone else in our society could be happy too.

 

My smiles will never

END.

Canada: The Killer H1N1 Vaccine



Global Research, November 20, 2009

"It is a serious thing [vaccine] that has the potential to kill" according to Dr. Neil Rau, an infectious disease expert, in a CTV interview, but do not worry: "leading experts insist, the benefits of the H1N1 vaccine vastly outweigh the risks" (Swine Flu Support Center, emphasis added)

A new development in the H1N1 Vaccine Saga is unfolding in Canada. 

Whereas health officials are pushing for an acceleration of the vaccination program,  there is evidence of  so-called "unusual adverse reactions" including three recently recorded deaths directly resulting from the vaccine.

In the meantime, health authorities have called for the withdrawal of 170,000 (higher risk) doses of the vaccine produced by GlaxoSmithKline. The initiative, of which the importance is being downplayed, is said to have come from the manufacturer GlaxoSmithKline, which expressed concern on higher than normal adverse reactions to the vaccine. 

"Canada's H1N1 flu vaccine manufacturer has asked the provinces to temporarily discontinue vaccinating Canadians from a lot of vaccine shipped in October due to a higher risk of adverse reactions, says a Manitoba health official.

Dr. Joel Kettner, Manitoba's chief public health officer, said Thursday that GlaxoSmithKline has asked that the October batch be taken out of circulation because it produced serious and immediate anaphylactic reactions in one out of 20,000 vaccinations, compared with one out of 100,000 in other shipments.

"We've been asked by the manufacturer GSK to not use this vaccine at this time pending further investigation," he said. (Winnipeg Free Press, 20 November 2009)

The government is involved in a cover-up. The initial headlines stated "more than 100,000 doses", but then read on, the number is 170,000 doses.

The CTV report admits that "it is a serious thing, it has the potential to kill".

Too Late to Withdraw the 170,000 Defective Doses

The question is whether the doses can be withdrawn or whether they have already been used. The first news reports from Manitoba indicate that:  

Of the 63,000 doses shipped [to Manitoba], only 630 remained unused by the four regional health authorities in Manitoba that received them. (Ibid)

This report would suggest that the risky GSK vaccine doses have already been used.

A subsequent report confirms that out of the 63,000 doses, 900 unused doses of the H1N1 were withdrawn by health authorities "after health authorities received word other vaccines from the same batch have been causing higher rates of allergic reactions than expected." (Flu vaccine batch pulled in Manitoba, Winnipeg Sun, 20 November 2009).

The question is what happened to remaining 62,100 doses of the higher risk vaccine batch, which were used to vaccinate people in Manitoba? 

Has there been a followup regarding those people in Manitoba who received the higher risk H1N1 vaccine injection.

Manitoba Health authorities casually confirm, in this regard, that "most of the vaccine Manitoba received from the suspect lot had already been used by the time the province received the alert on Wednesday" [November 18, 2009]. (Winnipeg Free Press, 20 November 2009, emphasis added)

Manitoba and Quebec : Three deaths resulting from the H1N1 Vaccine

The news reports have highlighted deaths allegedly resulting from the H1N1 flu, while obfuscating several recorded deaths resulting directly from the vaccine. These vaccine related deaths are occurring at the very outset of the vaccination program,

According to CTV News, 20 November 2009) "The province is currently investigating two deaths -- both adults who died within seven days of getting the H1N1 shot" (Family questions if H1N1 shot caused Manitoba woman's death, November 20, 2009, emphasis added).

Manitoba officials acknowledge  69 "adverse events" after people received the swine flu shot, including the two deaths. (CBC.ca report, 17 November 2009) 

However, unless the families speak out, the authorities will not provide details. CTV interviewed the family of one of the victims. No details on the other death in Manitoba are available:

"The family of a 38-year-old Manitoba woman who died five days after receiving the H1N1 vaccine are looking for answers as to why it happened.

Soo Lee Wong and her daughter, Angela Truong, both got the H1N1 shot on November 5th.

The family says Wong, who had diabetes, started getting sick a day after getting vaccinated and died a few days later.

Doctors told the family Wong died of a blood infection. More tests will be done to see if the vaccine played any role.

Wong's husband, Thoon Truong, is also caring for his seven-year-old daughter Angela, who has been in the hospital with a fever and swollen, painful legs.

He wants to know whether the two cases related to the vaccine or to something else.

The province is currently investigating two deaths -- both adults who died within seven days of getting the H1N1 shot.

Although it's still early, Manitoba's chief medical officer of health Dr. Joel Kettner says immunizations were not likely the cause of the deaths. CTV News | Family questions if H1N1 shot caused Manitoba woman's death, November 20, 2009)

It should be noted that these two deaths in Manitoba may have been associated with the injection of the higher risk H1N1 vaccine doses, which health authorities had called for withdrawal. 

Quebec: One Death

An 80-year-old Quebec man was reported dead after taking the H1N1 Swine Flu vaccination. Health officials have dismissed the case, "stating that it's too soon to link the death and vaccine."  Quebec man dies after taking H1N1 vaccine, Digital Journal, 18 November 2009).

The Quebec health authorities have refused to provide details:  

"Quebec's Director of Public Health Protection, Dr. Horacio Arruda, did not know why the man took the vaccine and that final test results, which are expected to come in December, will determine whether or not the man died from the vaccine.

Canada.com reports the man died in the last three weeks but provincial officials declined to reveal details, citing confidentiality concerns. Arruda has said that most allergic reactions occur right away, which is the reason why many patients are asked to stay in the centers, "We can't say there is a causal association between the death and the flu shot."

Nevertheless, Arruda is confident that the death will not discourage people from taking the vaccine but urged that serious reactions to the H1N1 shot are rare, "I understand that everyone is worried."" (Quebec man dies after taking H1N1 vaccine, Digital Journal, 18 November 2009)

The statements by senior health officials are notoriously ambiguous: while they concur that: "there is no evidence the vaccine is dangerous.", they nonetheless acknowledge the deaths resulting from the vaccine (Statement of Quebec's Director of Public Health Protection, Dr. Horacio Arruda, (The Canadian Press: Quebec health officials investigating possible death from H1N1 vaccine. November 18, 2009).

Script: 20 Minutes With the President

——————————

I recently had the pleasure of sitting down with our 44th President of the United States of America, Barack Hussein Obama, while he was out promoting his health care reform initiative. I requested 30 minutes given the scope and detail of my inquiry; they said I could have 20. Twenty minutes, 1200 seconds, not a lot of time to question the President about one of the most important events in our nation's history. The following is a transcript of our remarkable discussion.

——————————

Charlie Sheen – Good afternoon Mr. President, thank you so much for taking time out of your demanding schedule.

President Barack Obama – My pleasure, the content of your request seemed like something I should carve out a few minutes for.

CS – I should point out that I voted for you, as your promises of hope and change, transparency and accountability, as well as putting government back into the hands of the American people, struck an emotional chord in me that I hadn't felt in quite some time, perhaps ever.

PBO – And I appreciate that Charlie. Big fan of the show, by the way.

CS – Sir, I can't imagine when you might find the time to actually watch my show given the measure of what you inherited.

PBO – I have it Tivo'd on Air Force One. Nice break from the traveling press corps. (He glances at his watch) not to be abrupt or to rush you, but you have 19 minutes left.

CS – I'll take that as an invitation to cut to the chase.

PBO – I'm all ears. Or so I've been told.

CS – Sir, in the very near future we will be experiencing our first 9/11 anniversary with you as Commander in Chief.

PBO – Yes. A very solemn day for our Nation. A day of reflection and yet a day of historical consciousness as well.

CS – Very much so sir, very much so indeed…. Now; In researching your position regarding the events of 9/11 and the subsequent investigation that followed, am I correct to understand that you fully support and endorse the findings of the commission report otherwise known as the `official story'?

PBO – Do I have any reason not to? Given that most of us are presumably in touch with similar evidence.

CS – I really wish that were the case, sir. Are you aware, Mr. President, of the recent stunning revelations that sixty percent of the 9/11 commissioners have publicly stated that the government agreed not to tell the truth about 9/11 and that the Pentagon was engaged in deliberate deception about their response to the attack?

PBO – I am aware of certain "in fighting" during the course of their very thorough and tireless investigative process.

CS – Mr. President, it's hard to label this type of friction as "in fighting" or make the irresponsible leap to "thorough," when the evidence I insist you examine regarding 6 of the 10 members are statements of fact.

(At this point one of Obama's senior aides approaches the President and whispers into his ear. Obama glances quickly at his watch and nods as the aide resumes his post at the doorway, directly behind me.)

PBO – No disrespect Mr. Sheen, but I have to ask; what is it that you seem to be implying with the initial direction of this discussion?

CS – I am not implying anything Mr. President. I am here to present the facts and see what you plan to do with them.

PBO – Let me guess; your `facts,' allegedly supporting these claims are in the folders you brought with you?

CS – Good guess Mr. President.

(I hand the first folder of documents to the President)

CS – Again sir, these are not my opinions or assumptions, this is all a matter of public record, reported through mainstream media, painstakingly fact checked and verified.

(the President glances into the folder I handed him)

CS – You'll notice sir on page one of the dossier dated August of `06 from the Washington Post, the statements of John Farmer, senior council to the 9/11 commission, his quote stating, "I was shocked how different the truth was from the way it was described."

PBO – (as he glances down at the report, almost inaudible) …. um hmm….

CS – He goes on to further state "The [NORAD Air Defense] tapes told a radically different story from what had been told to us and the public for two years…."

(the President continues to view the documents)

CS – On pages two and three, sir, are the statements, as well, from commission co-chairmen Thomas Kean and Lee Hamilton, commissioners Bob Kerrey, Timothy Roemer and John Lehman, as well as the statements of commissioner Max Cleland, an ex-Senator from Georgia , who resigned, stating:

"It is a national scandal. This investigation is now compromised. One of these days we will have to get the full story because the 9/11 issue is so important to America. But this White House wants to cover it up."

He also described President Bush's desire to delay the process as not to damage the `04 re-election bid. They suspected deception to the point where they considered referring the matter to the Justice Department for criminal investigation. Mr. President, this information alone is unequivocally grounds for a new investigation!

PBO – Mistakes were clearly made but we as a people and as a country need to move forward. It is obviously in our best interest as a democratic society to focus our efforts and our resources on the future of this great nation and our ability to protect the American people and our allies from this type of terrorism in the coming years.

CS – Sir, how can we focus on the future when THE COMMISSION ITSELF is on record stating that they still do not know the truth??

PBO – Even if what you state, might in some capacity, begin to approach an open discussion or balanced debate, I can't speak for, or about the decisions certain commission members made during an extremely difficult period. Perhaps you should be interviewing them instead of me. Wait, don't tell me; I was easier to track down than they were?

CS – Not exactly sir, but let's be honest. You're the President of the United States, the leader of the free world, the buck stops with you. 9/11 has been the pretext for the systematic dismantling of our Constitution and Bill of Rights. Your administration is reading from the same playbook that the Bush administration foisted on America through documented secrecy and deception.

PBO – Mr. Sheen, I'm having a difficult time sitting here and listening to you draw distorted parallels between the Bush/Cheney regime and mine.

CS – Mr. President the parallels are not distorted just because you say they are. Let's stick to the facts. You promised to abolish the Patriot Act and then voted to re-authorize it. You pledged to end warrantless wire tapping against the American people and now energetically defend it. You decried the practice of rendition and now continue it. You promised over and over again on the campaign trail, that you would end the practice of indefinite detention and instead, you have expanded it to permanent detention of "detainees" without trial. This far exceeds the outrages of the former administration. Call me crazy Mr. President, but is this not your record?

PBO – Mr. Sheen, my staff and I authorized this interview based on your request to discuss 9/11 and deliver some additional information you're convinced I'd not previously reviewed. Call me crazy, But it appears as though you've blindly wandered off topic.

CS – Sir, the examples I just illustrated are a direct result of 9/11.

PBO – And I'm telling you that we must move forward, we must endure through these dangerous and politically challenging years ahead.

CS – Mr. President, we cannot move forward with a bottomless warren of unanswered questions surrounding that day and its aftermath.

PBO – I read the official report. Every word every page. Perhaps you should do the same.

CS – I have sir, and so have thousands of family members of the victims, and guess what; they have the same questions I do and probably a lot more. I didn't lose a loved one on that horrific day Mr. President and neither did you. But since then I, along with millions of other Americans lost something we held true and dear for most of our lives in this great country of ours; we lost our hope.

PBO – And I'd like to believe that I am here to restore that hope. To restore confidence in your leaders, in the system that the voting public chose through a peaceful transfer of power.

(An odd moment of silence between us. Precious time ticking away).

CS – Mr. President, are you aware of the number of days it took to begin the investigation into JFK's assassination?

PBO – If memory serves I believe it was two weeks.

CS – Close. Seventeen days to be exact. Are you aware sir, how long it took to begin the investigation into Pearl Harbor?

PBO – I would say again about….two weeks.

CS – Close again sir, eleven days to be exact. Are you aware Mr. President how long it took to begin the investigation into 9/11?

PBO – I know it must have seemed like a very long time for all the grieving families.

CS – It was a very long time Mr. President – four hundred and forty days. Roughly 14 months. Does it bother you Mr. President that it only took FIVE HOURS for Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld after the initial attack to recommend and endorse a full scale offensive against Iraq?

PBO – I am not aware of any such purported claim.

CS – I have the proof Mr. President, along with scores of documents and facts I'd like you to take a look at. Here.

(I hand him another file – much thicker than the first)

PBO – I see you came prepared Charlie.

CS – No other way to show up Mr. President. When in doubt over prepare I always say.

PBO – Now you sound like the First Lady.

CS – That's quite a compliment sir.

PBO – As you wish. Please continue.

CS – Sir, I'd like to direct your attention to the stack of documents in the folder I just handed you. The first in from the top is entitled " Operation Northwoods", a declassified Pentagon plan to stage terror attacks on US soil, to be blamed on Cuba as a pretext for war.

PBO – And I'd like to direct your attention to the fact that the principle draftsman of this improbable blueprint was quickly denied a second term as Joint Chiefs chairman and sent packing to a European NATO garrison. Thank God his otherworldly ambitions never saw the light of day.

CS – I wouldn't be so certain about that Mr. President.

PBO – I could easily say the same to you Charlie.

(the President checks his watch)

CS – The next document reads "Declassified staged provocations." Now, Honestly Mr. President I wish I was making this stuff up. I'm certain you are familiar with the USS Maine Incident, the sinking of the Lusitania, which we all now know brought us into WW1, and of course the most famous, the Gulf of Tonkin incident.

PBO – Of course I am familiar with these historical events and I'm aware that there's a measure of controversy surrounding them. But to be quite frank with you, this is all ancient history.

CS – Mr. President, it has been often said; "Those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it." And I concede to you sir, these events are the past.

PBO – A vastly different world young man, shouldering a radically disparate state of universal affairs.

CS – No argument sir, I'm merely inviting you to acknowledge some credibility to the pattern or the theme. Case in point; the next document in your folder. It was published by the think-tank, Project For a New American Century and it's entitled " Rebuilding Americas Defenses", and was written by Dick Cheney and Jeb Bush. To quote from the document sir – (the President interrupts)

PBO – "Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event – like a new Pearl Harbor."

CS – Touche, sir. Your thoughts on this statement Mr. President?

PBO – I would call this a blatant case of misjudgment fueled by an unfortunate milieu of assumption. For some, the uninformed denial of coincidence.

CS – Interesting angle sir. Nevertheless, Vice President Cheney didn't stop there. In early 2008, Pulitzer prize winning journalist  Seymour Hersh and  MSNBC, both reported that Cheney had proposed to the Pentagon an outrageous plan to have the U.S. Navy create fake Iranian patrol boats, to be manned by Navy Seals, who would then stage an attack on US destroyers in the Strait of Hormuz. This event was to be blamed on Iran and used as a pretext for war. Does any of this information worry you Mr. President? Should we just ignore it, until these realities can be dismissed years from now by our children, as ancient history as well?

PBO – Of course this information worries me, yet it's not nearly as worrisome as you sitting here today suspiciously implying that 9/11 was somehow allowed to happen or even orchestrated from the inside.

CS – Mr. President I am not suspiciously implying anything. I am merely exposing the documents and asking the questions that nobody in power will even look at or acknowledge. And as I stated earlier, I voted for you, I believed in your message of hope and change. Mr. President I have come to you specifically hoping for a change. A change in the perception that our government has not yet made itself open and accountable to the people. These are your words Mr. President not mine. The lives of thousands were brutally cut short and those left behind to suffer their infinite pain are with me today Mr. President. They are with me in spirit and flesh, and the message we carry will not be silenced anymore by media fueled mantras insisting how they are supposed to feel. Deciding for them, for 8 long years, what can be thought, what can be said, what can be asked.

PBO – And I appreciate your passion, I appreciate your conviction. In spite of your concerns, in spite of what your data might or might not reveal, what you and the families must understand and accept is that we are doing everything we can to protect you.

CS – Mr. President , I realize were very short on time, so please allow me to run down a list of bullet points that might illuminate some reasons why we don't embrace the warm hug of Federal protection.

PBO – We've come this far. Fire away.

CS – Please keep in mind Mr. President everything I'm about to say is documented as fact and part of the public record. The information you are holding in your hands chronicles and verifies each and every point.

PBO – You have five minutes left. The floor is yours. Brief me.

CS – Thank you Mr. President. Okay, first; On the FBI's most wanted list Osama Bin Laden is not charged with the crimes of 911. When I called the FBI to ask them why this was the case, they replied: "There's not enough evidence to link Bin Laden to the crime scene," I later discovered he had never even been indicted by the D.O.J.

CSNumber 2; FBI translator Sibel Edmonds, was dismissed and gagged by the D.O.J. after she revealed that the government had foreknowledge of plans to attack American cities using planes as bombs as early as April 2001. In July of `09, Mrs. Edmonds broke the Federal gag order and went public to reveal that Osama Bin Laden, Al Qaeda and the Taliban were all working for and with the C.I.A. up until the day of 9/11.

CSNumber 3; The following is a quote from Mayor Giuliani during an interview on 9/11 with Peter Jennings for ABC News. "I went down to the scene and we set up headquarters at 75 Barkley Street, which was right there with the Police Commissioner, the Fire Commissioner, the Head of Emergency Management, and we were operating out of there when we were told that the World Trade Center was going to collapse. And it did collapse before we could actually get out of the building, so we were trapped in the building for 10, 15 minutes, and finally found an exit and got out, walked north, and took a lot of people with us."

WHO TOLD HIM THIS??? To this day, the answer to this question remains unanswered, completely ignored and emphatically DENIED by Mayor Giuliani on several public occasions.

CSNumber 4; In April 2004, USA Today reported, "In the two years before the Sept. 11 attacks, the North American Aerospace Defense Command conducted exercises simulating what the White House says was unimaginable at the time: hijacked airliners used as weapons to crash into targets and cause mass casualties." One of the targets was the World Trade Center.

CSNumber 5; On September 12th 2007, CNN's `Anderson Cooper 360´, reported that the mysterious "white plane" spotted and videotaped by multiple media outlets, flying in restricted airspace over the White House shortly before 10am on the morning of 9/11, was in fact the Air Force's E-4B, a specially modified Boeing 747 with a communications pod behind the cockpit; otherwise known as "The Doomsday Plane".

Though fully aware of the event, the 9/11 Commission did not deem the appearance of the military plane to be of any interest and did not include it in the final 9/11 Commission report.

CSNumber 6; Three F-16s assigned to Andrews Air Force Base, ten miles from Washington, DC, are conducting training exercises in North Carolina 207 miles away as the first plane crashes into the WTC. Even at significantly less than their top speed of 1500 mph, they could still have defended the skies over Washington well before 9am, more than 37 minutes before Flight 77 crashes into the Pentagon, however, they did not return until after 9:55am.

Andrews AFB had no armed fighters on alert and ready to take off on the morning of 9/11.

CSNumber 7; WTC Building 7. Watch the video of its collapse.

CSNumber 8; Flight 93 is fourth plane to crash on 9/11 at 10:03am. V.P. Cheney only gives shoot down order at 10:10-10:20am and this is not communicated to NORAD until 28 minutes after Flight 93 has crashed.

Fueling further suspicion on this front is the fact that three months before the attacks of 9/11, Dick Cheney usurped control of NORAD, and therefore he, and no one else on planet Earth, had the power to call for military sorties on the hijacked airliners on 9/11. He did not exercise that power. Three months after 9/11, he relinquished command of NORAD and returned it to military operation.

CSNumber 9; Scores of main stream news outlets reported that the F.B.I. conducted an investigation of at least FIVE of the 9/11 hijackers being trained at U.S. military flight schools. Those investigations are now sealed and need to be declassified.

CSNumber 10; In 2004, New York firefighters Mike Bellone and Nicholas DeMasi went public to say they had found the black boxes at the World Trade Center, but were told to keep their mouths shut by FBI agents. Nicholas DeMasi said that he escorted federal agents on an all-terrain vehicle in October 2001 and helped them locate the devices, a story backed up by rescue volunteer Mike Bellone.

As the Philadelphia Daily News reported at the time, "Their story raises the question of whether there was a some type of cover-up at Ground Zero."

CSNumber 11 – Hundreds of eye witnesses including first responders, fire captains, news reporters, and police, all described multiple explosions in both towers before and during the collapse.

CSNumber 12; An astounding video uncovered from the archives shows BBC News correspondent Jane Standley reporting on the collapse of WTC Building 7 over twenty minutes before it fell at 5:20pm on the afternoon of 9/11. Tapes from earlier BBC broadcasts show news anchors discussing the collapse of WTC 7 a full 26 minutes in advance. The BBC at first claimed that their tapes from 9/11 had been "lost" before admitting that they made the "error" of reporting the collapse of WTC 7 before it happened without adequately explaining how they could have obtained advance knowledge of the event.

In addition, over an hour before the collapse of WTC 7, at 4:10pm, CNN's Aaron Brown reported that the building "has either collapsed, or is collapsing."

CSNumber 13; Solicitor General Ted Olson's claim that his wife Barbara Olsen called him twice from Flight 77, describing hijackers with box cutters, was a central plank of the official 9/11 story.

However, the credibility of the story was completely undermined after Olsen kept changing his story about whether his wife used her cell phone or the airplane phone. The technology to enable cell phone calls from high-altitude airline flights was not created until 2004. American Airlines confirmed that Flight 77 was a Boeing 757 and that this plane did not have airplane phones on board.

According to the FBI, Barbara Olsen attempted to call her husband only once and the call failed to connect, therefore Olsen must have been lying when he claimed he had spoken to his wife from Flight 77.

CSNumber 14; The size of a Boeing 757 is approximately 125ft in width and yet images of the impact zone at the Pentagon supposedly caused by the crash merely show a hole no more than 16ft in diameter. The engines of the 757 would have punctured a hole bigger than this, never mind the whole plane. Images before the partial collapse of the impact zone show little real impact damage and a sparse debris field completely inconsistent with the crash of a large jetliner, especially when contrasted with other images showing airplane crashes into buildings.

CSNumber 15; What is the meaning behind the following quote attributed to Dick Cheney which came to light during the 9/11 Commission hearings? The passage is taken from testimony given by then Secretary of Transportation Norman Mineta.

During the time that the airplane was coming in to the Pentagon, there was a young man who would come in and say to the Vice President, "The plane is 50 miles out." "The plane is 30 miles out." And when it got down to "the plane is 10 miles out," the young man also said to the Vice President, "Do the orders still stand?" And the Vice President turned and whipped his neck around and said, "Of course the orders still stand. Have you heard anything to the contrary?"

As the plane was not shot down, in addition to the fact that armed fighter jets were nowhere near the plane and the Pentagon defensive system was not activated, are we to take it that the orders were to let the plane find its target?

CSNumber 16; In May 2003, the Miami Herald reported how the Bush administration was refusing to release a 900-page congressional report on 9/11 because it wanted to "avoid enshrining embarrassing details in the report," particularly regarding pre-9/11 warnings as well as the fact that the hijackers were trained at U.S. flight schools.

CSNumber 17; Top Pentagon officials cancelled their scheduled flights for September 11th on September 10th. San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown, following a security warning, cancelled a flight into New York that was scheduled for the morning of 9/11.

CSNumber 18; The technology to enable cell phone calls from high-altitude airline flights was not created until 2004, and even by that point it was only in the trial phase. Calls from cell phones which formed an integral part of the official government version of events were technologically impossible at the time.

CSNumber 19: On April 29, 2004, President Bush and V.P. Cheney would only meet with the commission under specific clandestine conditions. They insisted on testifying together and not under oath. They also demanded that their testimony be treated as a matter of "state secret." To date, nothing they spoke of that day exists in the public domain.

CS – And finally Mr. President – Number 20; A few days after the attack, several newspapers as well as the FBI reported that a paper passport had been found in the ruins of the WTC. In August 2004, CNN reported that 9/11 hijacker Ziad Jarrah's visa was found in the remains of Flight 93 which went down in Shanksville, Pennsylvania.

At least a third of the WTC victim's bodies were vaporized and many of the victims of the Pentagon incident were burned beyond recognition. And yet visas and paper passports which identify the perpetrators and back up the official version of events miraculously survive explosions and fires that we are told melted steel buildings.

(The Senior aide appears again beside the President whispering in his ear. He then quickly moves off).

PBO – Well Charlie I can't say this hasn't been interesting. As I said earlier you've showed up today focused and organized. Regardless how I feel about the material you've presented, I must commend your dedication and zeal. However, our time here is up.

(the President rises from his chair , I do the same).

CS – Mr. President! One more second!

(The President starts towards the door – I follow him quickly step for step).

CS – Mr. President, I implore you based on the evidence you now possess, to use your Executive Power. Prove to us all Sir, that you do, in fact, care. Create a truly comprehensive and open Congressional investigation of 9/11 and its aftermath. The families deserve the truth, the American people and the rest of the free world deserve the truth. Mr. President -

(He pauses. We shake hands).

CS – Make sure you're on the right side of history.

(The President breaks the handshake).

PBO – I am on the right side of history. Thank you Charlie, my staff and I will be in touch.

(I watch as he strides gracefully out of the room, the truth I provided him held firmly by his side; in the hand of providence.)

CONGRESS, CATHOLICS AND CANADIANS



By Mary Starrett

Passage of H.R. 3692 was a thumb of the nose to all Americans who actually understand the Constitution. No where in that hallowed document is there allowance for the federal government to establish, oversee, require or otherwise meddle in the business of health insurance and healthcare. No where.

Yet, 220 elected Congressional representatives rammed an unconstitutional bill down our collective gullets caring nothing for the well established fact that Americans do not want this monster. So, what will you do about it? Keep re-electing the incumbents who ignored your wishes though scores of Town Hall meetings confirmed the massive opposition to federal control of health care?

According to a recent poll, the healthcare plan has been opposed by 90% of Republicans and 58% of unaffiliated voters. The passage of the bill (HR 3692) which now heads to the Senate was touted as "historic"; perhaps it was... seeing as voters didn't want it though it was passed anyway.

With mega special interest groups like AARP and the AMA pushing for passage of Obamacare, it showed exactly who was pulling the strings behind this behemoth socialized medicine bill. Add to those groups another powerful political force which pushed for the House bill, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. Go figure.

According to Accuracy in Media, Catholic lobbyists were wheeling and dealing with the devil handing the pro-abortion Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi a sign-off on the bill some credit with getting it passed. So what we have here essentially is the Catholic Mafia cutting a deal to foist one of the most dangerous socialist schemes on Americans. This coming from a group purporting to be "pro-life," making all kinds of noise about abortion provisions in the healthcare bill while consistently putting the kibosh on anti-abortion personhood bills in states like Michigan, Georgia, Colorado, Florida and North Dakota.

Pro-life activist Judie Brown wrote:

Over the years I have tried on many occasions to understand the apparent disconnect between the bureaucrats at the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops and the fundamental teaching of the Roman Catholic (Church).

Brown, like so many others has been perplexed why supposedly pro-life clerics would refuse to support amendments which seek to establish the life of the pre-born as "persons" pointing out:

The bishops go on to reaffirm their view "that it will be more prudent to pursue incremental measures that add to existing protections in law and help change hearts and minds."

There you have it, in their own words they'd rather stand around for another 36 years and twiddle their thumbs while millions more babies have their limbs torn apart and "pursue incremental measures" than cut to the chase making it clear that a person is a person whether born or unborn.

Ironically, the Canadians who've suffered under the weight of government-controlled healthcare are now rethinking the mess they made up there and are looking toward replacing their national health care with one more resembling ours, or should I say one that used to resemble ours.

Congress, Catholic Bishops and Canadians have spoken. Now, how will we respond?

Why is Canada Changing Its Flu Vaccine Policy?
Posted by: Dr. Mercola
November 10 2009 | 16,463 views

flu, influenza, swine flu, swine flu vaccine, flu vaccine, vitamin DMany countries are pouring millions into orders for swine flu vaccine from pharmaceutical companies. But one country is taking a different approach.

The Irish Independent reports that the some Canadian provinces have suspended the 'normal' seasonal flu shots for anyone under 65 in response to a recent study there. However, the vaccine suspensions do not apply for people over 65.

The study suggests that people vaccinated against seasonal flu are actually twice as likely to catch swine flu.

But plans vary across the provinces of Canada. Last month, British Columbia announced it is suspending seasonal flu shots for anyone under 65 years old, joining Quebec, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario and Nova Scotia in halting the immunizations.

Quebec's Health Ministry announced it would postpone vaccinations until January, clearing the autumn months for health professionals to focus on vaccinating against H1N1, which is expected to the more severe influenza strain this season.

"By the time the H1N1 wave is over, there will be ample time to vaccinate for seasonal flu," said Dr. Ethan Rubinstein, head of adult infectious diseases at the University of Manitoba.

Other provinces, including Manitoba, are still pondering a response to the research. New Brunswick, one of the lone holdouts, made an announcement in September that it would forge ahead with seasonal flu shots for all residents in October, as originally planned.

Yet according to an even more recent posting by PreventDisease.com, some provinces are still recommending co-administration of both vaccines in as little as 60 days, according to a staggered schedule.

An international panel is currently scrutinising the controversial study's data.
Dr Ethan Rubinstein, who has read the study, said it appeared sound.

"There are a large number of authors, all of them excellent and credible researchers," he said. "The sample size is very large, at 12 or 13 million people."

It was back in 1981 that R. Edgar Hope Simpson proposed that a principal cause of seasonal influenza is linked with the deficiency of solar radiation which triggers the production of vitamin D in the skin. Vitamin D deficiency is common in the winter, and vitamin D is crucial in allowing your immune system to defend itself against invading organisms.

In addition to vitamin D, studies have suggested that people who exercise moderately suffer fewer and less severe colds and flu infections.

In a new study, researchers found that when they had a group of mice regularly run on a treadmill over 3.5 months, the animals developed less-severe symptoms when infected with the flu virus.

Additionally, mice that exercised right before flu infection, but not regularly over the preceding months, also showed some protection against severe symptoms -- which in mice means dampened appetite and weight loss. Those benefits, however, were only apparent in the couple days after infection, whereas regular long-term exercise reduced flu symptoms over the whole course of infection.

Shoes fly as Bush tells audience, `I did not sell my soul'

By John Byrne

Raw Story, October 23, 2009

A day after an effigy of the Grim Reaper stalked his speech in Edmonton, Canada, former President George W. Bush was on the defensive over his personal salvation.

Speaking to a $400-a-seat crowd in Montreal, Bush told the roughly 1,000 attendees that his presidential decisionmaking was principled and moral.

"I am confident that I made decisions based on principle, that I made calls as best I could, and I did not sell my soul," Bush said.


Outside his speech, the scene was anything but calm. A throng of protesters burned a flaming effigy of the former president, who's taken his stump speech on the road across Canada. He'll speak in three Canadian cities over a period of as many days.

Did he have regrets? an audience member asked.

"I spend a lot of time thinking about Katrina, and whether I could have sent in the federal troops right away, even though it was against the law," Bush replied. He added he regretted the "Mission Accomplished" banner that accompanied him during a speech on an aircraft carrier after the early stages of his invasion of Iraq.
Story continues below...

Protesters outside had more concrete opinions. A protest organizer encouraged Bush opponents to bring old shoes, in reference to an Iraqi who threw a shoe at the President during a speech late in his presidency.

Speaking to the Vancouver Sun, an immigration lawyer who was among the protesters said Bush was responsible for numerous deaths in the Middle East.

Bush is culpable for "cynically causing a war that is responsible for so many deaths and so much destruction," lawyer William Sloan was quoted as saying.

"He set back international law into the 1700s," Sloan added, "violating every convention possible and seeming to revel in it."

Five protesters were reported to have been arrested.

In Edmonton, where Bush spoke earlier this week, a protester toted a representation of the Grim Reaper, which boasted a sign saying, "GWB I am your biggest fan" and "Thanks for 8 great years."

The Queen Elizabeth Hotel, where Bush spoke in Montreal, is also known for a popular peace anthem: John Lennon's "Give Peace a Chance."

The Grim Reaper is more popular than George War Criminal Bush.

Bush has no soul to sell-he will soon suffer all the pain he caused others to su ffer--in Hell for all eternity-Bush is the reason so many american soldiers have lost their souls are now possessed by demons and will spend eternity in Hell as well-the USA will soon Mirror the Hell on earth that it has made for the people in the Middle East-it will be an act of God-nature will return retribution-the USA will be totally demolished in one day May 22 2010, the end of a cycle-the seeds of evil have been sown soon they will be reaped--but those innocent people who were murdered by the USA are now in Heaven.

Forced Vaccination and Quarantine Laws in
Canada

SkyWatch Canada
Infowars September 29, 2009
http://www.infowars .com/forced- vaccination- and-quarantine-
laws-in-canada/
After the mainstream
media ran numerous stories on mass vaccination plans in Canada and the
US there has been a large outcry from health care workers as well as
the general public. Although the media never came out and plainly said
that the `H1N1 Vaccine is mandatory for everyone´, they did allude to
it. A
story was published in the National Post that plainly stated
"Under Canada´s official pandemic plan, the entire population would
ultimately
be immunized against the H1N1 swine flu.". This is basically equivalent
to
saying that the H1N1 vaccine is compulsory for all Canadians. But after
the
public expressed disdain for this, the government started to back pedal.
Chief
Public Health Officer Dr. David Butler-Jones started making
statements like ," Immunization
will not be mandatory and not all Canadians are expected to want it."
More
news articles were later published making it seem like only enough
vaccine is being ordered for the 75% of the population that are expected
to want
it. But then the results of the vaccine `trials´ `demonstrated´
that only
one dose will be needed as opposed to two.  This implies
that Ontario has ordered more than enough vaccine to inoculate the
entire
population. So in light of all of the mixed messages, what´s the real
story on
forced vaccination in Canada? In 1996 Ontario passed the Health Care
Consent Act, which allows treatment such as vaccination to be
administered without consent of the individual in the case of a loosely
defined
"Emergency". In Quebec the Public Health Act clearly states:
"Notwithstanding any provision to
the contrary, while the public health emergency is in effect, the
Government or
the Minister, if he or she has been so empowered, may, without delay and
without
further formality, to protect the health of the population, (1) order
compulsory
vaccination of the entire population or any part of it against smallpox
or any
other contagious disease seriously threatening the health of the
population and,
if necessary, prepare a list of persons or groups who require priority
vaccination. " Clearly it is not unforeseeable that mandatory
vaccination
could be a reality in Canada during this pandemic.
Recently, Greg
Evensen a former Kansas State Trooper reported that he has state
troopers across
America telling him that to enforce vaccination orders this fall, road
blocks
will be set up along with a system to identify travelers who have
received the
vaccine. Metal shackle like bracelets with embedded RFID
chips will be attached to those who receive the shot. Those who refuse
to be vaccinated
will be loaded on a bus and sent to a quarantine facility/FEMA camp.
Templates
for quarantine orders for  Iowa ,  Florida and  North Carolina have been
found on the CDC web server, that tell a similar story. Get the H1N1
vaccine or
get sent to a quarantine/detentio n facility. The question should be
asked, are there similar plans in the works in Canada? In 2005 a new
Quarantine
Act was passed to deal with the
transmission of communicable diseases by travelers entering or leaving
Canada.
Powers are awarded under this act to a Quarantine
Officer to issue an order for a traveler who may have come in contact
with
someone with a communicable disease, to comply with treatment (ie.
vaccination)
or any other preventative measure (Section 26). If the traveler refuses
to
comply with the order he or she may face detention at a quarantine
facility,
until they decide to comply with treatment (ie. vaccination) or no
longer pose a
risk (Section 28). The threat posed by this act is diminished by the
fact that
it only applies to people leaving or entering Canada. Unfortunately
there is a
real possibility that the definition of a traveler may be expanded to
include
internal travelers (ie. everyone). The 2004 Public Safety
Act (Bill C-7 (2004) formerly
Bill C-42 (2002)) amends the Quarantine Act , and in doing so grants
powers to
the Minister of Health to make an interim order without Parliamentary
oversight,
to expand the definition of a traveler to include anyone residing in
Canada.
This sets the stage for a grim situation much like the one depicted by
Greg
Evensen. Is it likely that despite all the legislation allowing
mandatory
vaccination in Canada that they will be optional this fall ? The
mainstream
media is trying to make it seem like that will be the case. But what if
the NWO crime syndicate intends to advance their population reduction
agenda
through a mass vaccination campaign? Opposition to forced vaccinations
would be
more than enough reason to round up resistors and send them to
quarantine
facilities/ concentration camps. If that is to be the case, lets hope
things don´t go according to plan.

My Vision Quest

By Daniel J Towsey

The Visionary Folk Photographer

 

My vision quest takes me to a time when nature was pure.

I will now take you back to a time before the white

British European man arrived in the New World and caused the Indian Wars.

 

I have a vision of a small happy and healthy Mi'kmaq village set on the panoramic shore

of the most pristine and beautiful Cowbay in what came to be known as Nova Scotia. Canada.

 

This once pristine place that was full of natural wildlife

has now been named Heritage Park.

 

There was a brave young Mi'kmaq.

 

He had reached man hood and needed to find is understanding of his human nature.

 

His elders told him what he had to do.

He was told no human words could give him the answer.

 

The wise elders told him that he had to go on his vision quest.

 

The brave Mi'kmaq had to find his natural balance.

 

As in the laws of nature.

Only the strongest survive to perpetuate the continuation of its species.

 

Not all braves come back from their vision quest.

 

He was very quiet and contemplative.

 

He loaded his pack with supplies, took his knife, Bow and Arrow.

began his long walk into the wild to seek his vision of understanding.

 

He walked and walked.

Never saying or hearing a human word.

He listened to the natural world.

 

His soul was lost to all that is natural and healthy.

He knew he needed to get in balance with nature.

 

He walked for endless miles through the forest of life.

 

He began to see and hear the wonder of the natural world.

 

He then began to get in balance with his natural self by

finding his place amongst the families of the natural world.

 

The crawling insects, singing birds, the fluttering butterflies,

the stealthy fox, the majestic moose, the gentle growling giant black bear,

the aquatic creatures of the bay.

 

He sat on the shore of the bay and watched the power of the lighting storms.

He sat on the shore of the bay and watched and contemplated the wonders of the magic hour.

He sat on the shore of the bay and watched the most beautiful show of nature a creature could ever see

as the northern lights orchestra conducted in the heavenly sky over the bay.

 

He hunted and ate, and was always thankful to the spirit of the creature that

gave its life so he could survive.

 

He always took that creatures soul and free spirit and made it part of his soul.

 

He was never selfish, he need not to be when he was part of the so perfect natural world.

 

He spent years and seasons on his vision quest.

Until one day he returned to his village a wise elder.

 

And his eyes saw a most unnatural sight.

 

A white man had arrived at his village.

 

And the rest is the history of the destruction of all that was natural and beautiful.

 

Now a young native brave can no longer go on vision quests.

 

For now his vision is so blurred with tears of sadness.

For the white mans unnatural spirit has grown so powerful from

the abundance of wildlife and wilderness he has so completely consumed.

 

The wise elder's vision is so poor now.

 

His vision has become so permanently blurred with tears from watching

the young braves all perishing because the white mans greed has left

no natural nourishment for his braves.

 

The wise elder can now only try to share his visions with his offspring

through human words, for there can never be another vision quest.

 

The once natural balance of nature is only but a vision of a wise elder.

 

He now can only share tears with his offspring.

For he knows that his offspring will never again be able to go on a vision quest.

 

The elder knows that words could never give his offspring the

understanding that comes from a vision quest.

 

The wise elder sits on the bay and cries another tear as another brave dies

as his village get smaller and smaller.

 

Until one day all that remained was the elder sitting by himself on the bay.

 

Then one day the wise elder drowned and died in that bay filled from his tears.

 

Now we only have Heritage Park Left.

 

The Mi'kmaq and all the natural living breathing life is all but gone...

 

As I walk through Heritage Park taking pictures

 and see some remnants of wildlife I can only see a bay of tears.

 

For I realize that something so natural and

vital has perished.

 

The natural family of nature is gone.

 

So as I photographically document my vision quest and

travel miles and seasons and years.

 

My vision blurs with tear drops for there are no longer

any braves to hear of my travels in nature.

 

As I sit here on the bench overlooking the panoramic view of Heritage Park.

 

I do not hear the screams of the

young native children running in the village pretending to be a braves.

 

All I hear is the far away constant noise of the wheels of progress

destroying the tranquility that nature once offered.

 

It pains me so when I publish online my most beautiful

images of the remnant of natural beauty that once was.

 

And discover that people care not to enjoy my vision quest.

 

For most people are so far from being natural

human beings that they can not see

 nature at all.

 

Heritage Park Should be Named Mi'kmaq Heritage Park

How to be 100% Selfish

Daniel J Towsey

 

Okay here we go.. As understand selfishness...

 

Selfishness is all about seeking what makes you totally happy.

 

So now you will have to be truthful to yourself to be able to achieve your 100% total selfishness goal.

 

Now remember this is between you and your conscience and not me.

 

I will never meet or know you. No one knows you are reading this..

 

The words I am about to write are for your selfishness.

 

So it seems to be that every selfish person seeks unlimited pleasures. Will here is the formula.

 

This formula is extremely valuable...and I am going to give it to you for free..

 

After-all the best things in life are always free.

 

So you want to be free to be the most selfish you can be, do you not?

 

Actually It is very simple and easy to do.

 

Just spend the rest of your life giving of yourself.

 

Sharing your knowledge of all that is beautiful and good with others.

 

Giving a smile to a stranger and even a pleasant greeting too.

 

I mean spend your whole life giving and doing kindness to others.

 

especially if they do not now your selfish formula.

 

You will soon discover that, like the fact that a person can not tickle themselves.

 

You can not make yourself happy.

 

Others will make you happy if you adhere to the 100% selfishness formula.

 

You will soon discover that almost every time you give of yourself..

even if your giving to the most hardest and negative person you could ever meet,

That the formula works almost every time.

 

Over a lifetime of using this formula you will discover the most amazing thing.

 

You will discover the most beautiful thing ever.

 

You will see the most absolutely genuine and beautiful smiles coming back at you.

 

Smiling is so contagious.

 

Before you know it you will be smiling all the time.

 

Some people will give you bewildered stares. They will think you are high on something.

 

And the truth will be that you will be high on life itself.

 

And remember that all the best things in life will come to those who know the 100% selfishness formula.

 

So do the selfishness thing and go out and give of yourself.

 

Be kind and loving, do not judge those who do not know the formula.

 

Instead just give them the formula.

 

This formula comes with a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Now what a deal.. And it is completely free..

 

All you have to do is go out and do it...and over time you will be a master at it..

 

I look forward to seeing your smile someday.
