be losing support among a key group of voters<br>
who had hitherto stood firmly with the president.<br>
even as his poll numbers among other groups fell dramatically.<br>
A new </font><font color="#FF0000">Gallup

has fallen below 50% among </font><font color="#FF0000">Total Fukkin’

This represents a dramatic drop compared to a poll taken just last

when 62% of </font><font color="#FF0000">total fuckkin’

president<br>

good job,<br>

The last poll, conducted by phone with 1,530

showed 62% approving of the president,7% disapproving <br>
and 31% thought the question was about football or gambling.<br><br>
Faltering approval ratings among a group once thought to be a solid

every bad thing is laid at the feet of america.<br><br>
the basic trubble with this thread we’re in now is that those who are
into it are <i>really</i> into it, <u>obsessively</u>, while those who’ve
decided they don't rate its likelihood don't much bother to keep up with
the supposedly ever increasing tsunami of “new findings”! <br><br>
some of you have written to laud me for refusing to be bullied into
swallowing my doubts in silence. but far too many Amurderikans
(with the obvious exception of UP! readers :) seem afraid to stand up and
state clearly what they feel, rightly or wrongly perhaps they’re
terrified to be categorised as being on the wrong side of the lynch
mob? this allows bandwagons to build. though it might take
years before we see it, the

theories of 9/11, and also for publishing the correspondences from those
people who disagree with you. I too am one of those individuals who share
those samebeliefs, that 9/11 was indeed an attack orchestrated by the
American government.<br><br>
I don't wishthis to be viewedas 'punishing' you for having a difference
of opinion than myself and others - far from it. <u>It's important for us
<i>all</i> not to be so arrogant as to think that we can 'push'our points
of view upon one another and 'make' someone believe or saywhat we think
or want them to say</u>.<br><br>
However,I amasking you to please remove my name also from the mailing

past.<br><br>
I sincerely wish you well with all of your future efforts.<br>

</font><font color="#FF6600"><b>Fraser, I enjoy your newsletter but you
really must do some more research on 9/11 before you start throwing
invective like 'conspiracy nuts' around.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> i didn't. i re-published the
article written & titled by alexander cockburn, a very very trusted
and long-term radical left activist whom i respect.<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF6600">I was a university lecturer until a few
weeks ago and probably still would be if my conscience and 9/11 hadn't
intervened.<br><br>
And it really isn’t that complicated.<br><br>
They said 19 muslims did it. At least 6 of these muslims turned up
alive in the weeks after. You really don't need to know anything
else about 9/11 to know that the real culprits were not found.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> i totally agree. but the main aim
of authorities after such events is to project to the public that they're
hot on the trail of the perps. they often get it all wrong initially but
it’s sposed to reassure the public they’re hot on the case rather
than totally stunned. <br>
the big question is: was it angry arabs (as it still is, and was for some
years before 9/11) or george in his bath? (ok, i take that back
:)<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF6600">Please take a look again. If you have
any questions I'd be happy to answer them.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> thanks. if u reread up! 0044 you'll
find ruffly 6 questions i've posed. not all are in the form of questions
but u can see the question in them. the main one i mentioned is probly to
do with bin laden being a cia stooge. if so, then why don't they get him
to FESS UP to the crime?! why leave it <i>unclear?!</i> (he never claimed
he did it, but he did envision, inspire, bless, and oversee it and
there's recently been footage of the visits of the actors to see him in
afghanistan) a few weeks b4 the event. (btw Amurderika had been deserving
it for a long long time)<br><br>
another question not mentioned there is why they would risk letting so
many people into the tower explosives part of the conspiracy when 2
steaming stumps would have been PLENTY to launch their wars? right?
they didn't <i>need</i> to collapse! or, even better, why bother with
planes crashing when they could just have blown up the towers (according
to the Theory) and blamed it on whomever they wanted. much simpler
and a thousand times easier to conceal. they could even have had a
small ‘half failed’ explosion in the white house, right? they
didn’t NEED all this other dangerous stuff at all!<br><br>
may i also thank and congratulate u for your open-minded, open discussion
attitude. so many of the "9/11 Nuts" are vicious, negative,
angry, rude, superior oh they're just awful - which tells me
something.<br>

</font><font color="#FF0000"><b>Hi Fraser, I really appreciate your
keeping the 9/11 discussion going, I'm sure you've had a lot of shit
flung your way over it. I'm bummed but not surprised that there is
so much vitriol on both sides of the issue. <br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> why not surprised? am deeply
troubled myself.<br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">> </b>you're right, we are as divided as
ever in a million little factions. as long as we are at each
other's throats about thedetails, the bigger picture lieremains
unchallenged. the way I sum that lieup is this: <i>with</i> <i>1/2
of what the US spends on "defence," we could feed, educate, and
shelter the entire world, thereby vastly diminishing those who would
immolate themselves just to spite us.</i>instead we put our money into
things like 'Operation Cyclone', which has to rank in the top ten of the
most evil and stupid things our government has ever done.<br><br>
</font><b>I am surprised however that there is so much incredulity coming
from you of all people, considering your promotion of such ideas as Santa
and the xmas tradition coming from the Siberian mushroom cults (which btw
I gleefully and wholeheartedly agree to). <br>
<font color="#FF00FF">>> no incredulity. i don’t think
anyone’s crazy for seriously considering what is a reasonably possible
scenario. not in the least and i stand on my long-term reputation
on this one. but when they react with such playground bully
attitudes i fear for the human race. if they’re going to be
sitting at the New Age table when the Dinos’ Last Stand has completed its
Collapse, they’ll be voting to put people like us in gulags, am not
kidding. i have seldom seen such arrogance and ugliness in the
military.<br>
</b></font><font color="#FF0000">> could not agree more<br><br>
</font><b>My point is, to those who have not pulled back the veil, and
looked at the deeper connections, many things that you and I consider
self evident seem absurd and outrageous. Sensationalism often
obscures the finer nuances of the reality of a situation. <br>
All sensational theory aside, it has been demonstrated that the
administration knew something was coming,<br>
<font color="#FF00FF">>> well, they had some warnings. out of a
million tip-offs over the previous year? but let’s pull back the veil of
mists of time passed - i can personally very well remember that their
main security aim in those days prior to 9/11 was hunting pot dealers,
with a news story of a bust on tv every might. i think they were so
arrogant they really didn't think any arabs could get their shit
together. it's always easy looking back.<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">that they (the Dinos) stood to gain from it
heavily, <br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> certainly. <br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">> </b>Many low level operators have come
forward who were involved in anti-terror operations from the Military,
CIA, government, and elsewhere to describe how their operations were
thwarted from above (FBI translator Sibel Edmunds
</font><font color="#0000FF"><b>(</b><u>http://www.justacitizen.com/)</u>
</font><font color="#FF0000"> is under gag order not to talk about how
her superiors dragged their feet in Al Qaeda matters), but these folks
are not given a voice nor were their concerns adequatelyaddressed by the
commission.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF"><b>> “thwarted” is a value
judgement. equally possible is they were interested in other stuff
and simply and arrogantly (about which nobody argues) ignored it as
distraction.<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">and that they had even previously
acknowledged how such an event would be necessary to generate the public
support for their agenda (PNAC's "New Pearl Harbor"), and that
now we are faithfully carrying out that very agenda out.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> if you read some of those writings
they are often talking about the danger of arabs finally doing such a
thing and how that would trigger them.<br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">> </b>in his book "Crossing the
Rubicon" Mike Rupert (now exiled from the US) makes a pretty strong
case that it's not just money but end-gamesurvival that is motivating the
Dinos along this path. Definitely jibes with the "last
stand" characterisation you use.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF"><b>>> granted, but 9/11 occurred while
they were still cockahoop.<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">In the US now there is a growing number of
people in academic, government, military, and intelligence circles who
question the official theory. These are not crackpots, but well
informed, educated people who are speaking out at great personal risk to
their careers and reputations:<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> i didn't call them crackpots tho
some of them most definitely are. some are building themselves nice
little careers (remember they’re Amurderikans!) others are doing it
for deeply flawed subconscious reasons, father-hatred and all the rest of
it (had to deal with it through my entire club career, peoples’
projections onto me which had nothing to do with <i>me</i>). and
people are jumping on bandwagons - one of the main reasons i questioned
it publicly, i don't want ANYONE to decide because of bandwagon pressure,

<div align="right"><font face="Verdana" size=2>by Carol Sue Rosin whom
he’d asked to “move in” <br>
</font></div>
<font face="Verdana" color="#008080">During his last week he told me the
drugs were no longer working. He said his body was giving out and he
couldn’t stand his quality of life, diapers, that he was losing his
ability to hear and communicate, and that he felt embarrassed by his
inability to recognise friends, including Arlen and
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">Robert Anton
Wilson</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> whom he loved but
didn’t know them one day when they arrived for a visit. That was the
final straw. He was deteriorating rapidly and he knew it. He stopped
eating. And continued to smoke cigarettes and breathe
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">nitrous
oxide</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> until the day before he
died.<br><br>
A few days before he died I reminded him he had said he wanted to call
his favourite ex- wife,
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">Rosemary</font>
<font face="Verdana">.</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> But he
now changed his mind. He said,
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“Do not call her! I don’t
want to talk to her!”</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">“Why not?” “Having trouble
communicating,”</i> </font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">he said.
As usual, I didn’t listen, dialled, and handed him the phone. He glared
at me, but asked her to drop everything and come. She did. (He had told
me that one of the main reasons he wanted me there with him was because I
was one friend who didn’t listen to anything he said... and he knew times
with him were about to get difficult.)<br><br>
<br>
About 5 pm the day before he died, he called me to join him in the dining
room. There he was in his electric wheelchair. He handed me a pink
[</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">nitrous
oxide</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">] balloon and said,
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“Carol, this is my last
balloon.”</i></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> He paused, head
down, and sounded so sad,
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“I will never have another
balloon.”</i></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> In my denial, I
rather flippantly said,
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“Oh, you don’t know
that.”<br><br>
</i></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">And I’ve been sorry ever
since that I didn’t just face what he was saying as a final
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">reality
shift</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">. All of a sudden he had
slipped into his real feeling state, and I was left behind, in denial. I
wasn’t ready to shift into this reality. Quietly, he repeated,
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“I will never do another
balloon.” </i></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">And I finally
heard him.<br><br>
That night, </font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">May
29th</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">, I told Timothy that I
felt I should leave the house in order to give
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">Rosemary</font>
<font face="Verdana"> </font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">, whom
I had invited even though Timothy said he didn’t want her there, and the
others, time with him. I asked if he thought he would die before morning.
He said, </font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“No, I’ll wait
for you.”</i></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> He liked to say
things like that to people but I believed he meant it this time so I left
for the night.<br><br>
I phoned from my car the next morning. Vicki, his trusted assistant for
many years, told me to hurry, that he was fading fast. He had already
been up and around in his wheelchair looking at the garden and saying
good-bye to the birds, when I arrived, and had gotten back into bed to
start an intentional slow breathing process.<br><br>
During the first part of the day I helped the nurse put some ice cubes on
his lips. At one point, he grabbed one and popped it into his mouth, as
if to say, </font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“So there! I
still have control -- over an ice
cube!”</i></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> Still
humorous. Then, sleep.<br><br>
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">Ram Dass
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">talked on the speaker phone
to us - to help our spirits through this time. He was so wonderful during
this process of Timothy’s, and ours, and mine.<br><br>
At the hospice nurse’s instruction, I checked his diaper now and then,
but his bladder had stopped functioning. The nurse asked me to help
change his shirt to that oversized
“</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">BIG</font>
<font face="Verdana"> </font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">”
T-shirt he requested to die in… from the Broadway show my husband was in
during this time … it said,
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">“<i>If you only have one
wish… make it BIG.”</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> </i>That
was his choice of what to wear as he finally de-animated.<br><br>
People took shifts sitting around his bed. I hardly noticed who was
there. Nothing seemed real and yet the reality seemed amplified. The
living room filled with people, all waiting for the inevitable. And I
learned later that the street was filled with media trucks… all also
somehow knowing this was
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“it.”</i> <br><br>
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">The night hospice nurse,
John, a beautiful Jamaican man, told us not to touch Timothy’s body
because that might bring him back, that he was trying to leave. He
suggested each of us repeat a silent message saying
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“I/we love you Timothy.
You can go now</i>.”</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> The few
by his bedside all did this. <br><br>
At one point, Timothy looked at Rosemary and mouthed,
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“I love
you,”</i></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> and she did the
same. At another, he sat straight up in his bed, just when we thought he
was about to die, and said,
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“WHY?”</i></font>
<font face="Verdana"> </font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">Then
repeating over and over many times, looking into everyone’s eyes
separately and repeating those words, with every inflection imaginable,
he said, </font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“WHY NOT? WHY
not! Why not! Why NOT!”<br><br>
</i></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">Suddenly, as I sat by his
bed waiting, about </font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">12:44 AM
on May 31st</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">, I felt a huge
rush of warmth rush through my body. The room illuminated in amber light.
I could hardly catch my breath. I sat up at exactly the same second John,
the Hospice nurse, sat up. I think we noticed before anyone that Timothy
had taken his last breath. I was sure I had felt Timothy’s soul leave his
body and fill the room. John then signalled to me with his eyes and hand
to join him next to Timothy’s head. We had been sitting on opposite sides
of his bed. John put his fingers on Timothy’s neck. He asked me with his
eyes if I’d like to. I did. I was a little shaky, sweating. Thoughts
flashed into my mind like</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">,
<i>“Is he really dead?</i> Why did John pick me to do
this?”</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> And I couldn’t stop
saying in my mind,
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“Timothy, are you
here?”<br><br>
</i></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">I felt his strong pulse.
But he wasn’t breathing. This was confusing. Did I put my head on his
chest or am I imagining I did it? Nothing seemed real. With my fingers on
his neck, his pulse faded away. I announced he was gone... but I looked
up to the ceiling. My mind tried to talk to him there. The room was lit
with candles and white Christmas lights. But I saw the room turn deep
yellow, white, green, and then
amberish</font><font face="Verdana" color="#FF0000">...
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">truly radiant. I felt his
presence, for sure, and his consciousness, or was it his spirit.
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">I definitely felt him still
there!<br><br>
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">Everyone waiting in the
living room took turns saying good-bye. Some cried and hugged each other.
Others just sat or stood quietly. I was the last to leave his room. Then
I heard a voice, Timothy reminding me… and I remembered that Timothy had
put my camera behind his dresser so I could take his picture when he
died. At the time when he asked me to do it, I couldn’t believe I’d do
such a thing. Now I suddenly felt him, and thought I heard him reminding
me. I grabbed the camera and shot two photos, one of his entire bed with
his body still in it, the other a little closer shot. I am looking at
this private collection while I write. His head is on his space pillow.
There is an astronaut flying by his head, with rockets and stars. His
mouth is wide open. His eyes wide open, bright blue.<br><br>
Donna, an estate trustee, came into the room with scissors and envelopes,
to cut his hair and give some to Rosemary, Zach, Vicki, herself, and me.
She appeared to be nervously jovial as she cut locks of hair, explaining
to Timothy what she was doing.<br><br>
Vicki had called the mortuary and filled out papers. Two suit-and-tied
men came to claim his body… bringing a stretcher/cot on wheels down the
psychedelically painted and mirrored hallway into his room. I helped the
nurse prepare his body, and then the two men slid his body on the sheet
on to the cot, gently, respectfully. We asked they not cover his face.
They wheeled him to the front door. I announced his arrival.
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">Everyone gave him a final
standing ovation</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">. Some of us
went outside, watched his body being loaded into the dark van, then
driven away until we could no longer see the tail lights.<br><br>
I stayed awake all night calling people. First, his friend, actress
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">Susan
Sarandon</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">, who had even
contributed to sending his ashes into space. And I spent that night
answering calls. I went outside early to let the press, who filled the
street, know the family would be out shortly. My hair and clothes filthy,
teeth unbrushed, mascara rings under my eyes -- I had no intention of
actually talking to the media. But one of the reporters recognised me as
the one he had interviewed regarding the anti-space weapons movement and
shouted, </font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“Carol Rosin,
what are YOU doing here!?”
</i></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">Suddenly, I was
surrounded by cameras. I snapped into my professional role and made some
statements I hoped would make the controversial Dr. Timothy Leary look
good, and some general statements we had all agreed to say, like
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“He was surrounded by
friends and family.”</i></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> My
quotes appeared on the front page of newspapers all over the world.
<br><br>
Weeks later, Vicki, Donna, Zach and I met to fill four 7 gram vials
(which, ironically, looked like cocaine bottles) with Timothy’s ashes for
the launch. He wanted to finally be a space pioneer on this first
official launch of ashes and had asked me to make that
happen.</font><font face="Verdana" color="#FF0000">
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">Ten pounds of ashes,
including little bone pieces in a plastic bag in a box in a blue velvet
bag. We champagne-toasted Timothy as I scooped his ashes into four little
bottles.<br><br>
At another casual gathering, friends came, including his granddaughter,
to share the remaining ashes. We sat at Timothy’s white picnic table
passing the bag until everybody got their pinch of him. The blackbirds
which he loved miraculously appeared. The house-sitter that Jon and I had
hired hiked to sprinkle a pinch of Timothy on
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">Mt.
Whitney</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">.
(</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">Several people have now
taken some of him to sprinkle in various special spots on the
planet</font><font face="Verdana" color="#FF0000">.</font>
<font face="Verdana" color="#800080">..and I still do it.)
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">Everyone looked forward to
the launch of his ashes on the rocket from Vandenberg to Spain to the
Canary Islands… and finally from there into space. Though there were
other funeral events for Timothy, sadly, not one of his friends or
familyattended the amazing official launch of his ashes, or to the
beautiful
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">Celestis</font>
<font face="Verdana">
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">memorial ceremony for him,
except me. <br><br>
Days before he died, Timothy again proposed marriage to me. I said,
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“Timothy, when you propose
to me and to other women, don’t you mean that you LOVE and want to marry
everybody?”</i></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> He said,
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“You understand. You
understand! Thank you. Thank
you!”</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> </i>He was all about
LOVE… and became more and more aware that this was who we ARE, especially
at this end and new beginning.<br><br>
My saddest moment was when he whispered in my ear,
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><i>“Carol, you know what the
saddest part of all this is? That I don’t even have a
wife!”</i></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080"> This human being,
beloved by millions, was so lonely. <br><br>
Timothy received 35,000 website messages the day he died, and 125,000
tried to get in. He received close to 10,000 loving e-mails during his
last days. </font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080"><u>I hear that
twenty five million turned on and awakened their consciousness, thanks to
Timothy</u></font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">. And sometimes he
spent all night long reading them out loud.<br><br>
The day before he died, I felt both honoured and daunted when he demanded
that I design the words I thought he’d want to be printed on the
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#FF0000">vial
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#008080">containing his ashes when
they were launched into space. Another reality shift. There were 25
spaces for his final message to us all. Staring into my eyes, he told me
he loved me as he signed his approval of the words. In a whispery voice
he read them out loud: <br><br>
</font><font face="Verdana" color="#800080">PEACE LOVE LIGHT

</div>
<font color="#FF0000"><b>Contrary to the official government report, the
9-11 attack resembles a clever yet diabolical plan, carried out
successfully by a few key government insiders and several dozen top
commandos. Let us call this group, simply for the sake of argument,
</font><font color="#0000FF">The Network.<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">Their mission was fourfold.<br>
</font><font color="#0000FF">(1)</font><font color="#FF0000"> Create an
unforgettable terror event to be blamed on an Islamic group.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> spose they'd just planted
explosives in the new york bdgs. and maybe a few more skyscrapers in
other major cities? and/or a corner of the white house. would that
NOT have made it 'unforgettable'? and a hundred times safer for
them?<br><br>
</font><font color="#0000FF">(2)</font><font color="#FF0000"> Create a
series of spectacular catastrophes that symbolized an attack on America
but which also served as diversions.<br>
</font><font color="#0000FF">(3)</font><font color="#FF0000"> Create a
multi-million dollar gold heist that would occur simultaneously to the
terror events.<br>
(4) Create a network of draconian agencies and laws soon after the terror
events that would curtail individual rights and create an atmosphere for
endless imperial war. Not to mention, make any reinvestigation of
9-11 difficult or impossible.<br><br>
The 9-11 attack then resembles an ingenious diversion concealing a master
plan. The 19 hijackers may have been actual Islamic agents, Israeli
double agents, CIA assets--or peripheral components of
</font><font color="#0000FF">The
Network</font><font color="#FF0000">.<br><br>
The hijackers are the least important aspect of the plot.<br><br>
According to this scenario, </font><font color="#0000FF">The
Network</font><font color="#FF0000"> would need remote control planes,
aircraft that resembled Boeing jumbo jets. Plenty of planes -
available cheap - -now gather dust in the deserts of California and
Arizona. They would need the technology to adapt planes.
(Remote control airplanes have been around for more than 40 years)
They would need a sufficient amount of money - large amounts of money -
to hire commandos. Both the money and the expertise were readily
available through top Pentagon connections and their network of
suppliers. <br><br>
Not surprisingly, the man who controlled the money at the Pentagon, Dov
Zakheim, also enjoyed connections to an electronics firm specializing in
remote control aviation.<br><br>
</font><font color="#0000FF">The Network</font><font color="#FF0000">
would need several dozen, top foreign commandos who swore no allegiance
to any country, certainly not allegiance to America. Approximately
</font><font color="#0000FF">200 Israelis</font><font color="#FF0000">
were rounded up immediately following 9-11. Some were stopped in
vans driving into Manhattan. <br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> INTO Manhattan?<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">Some were arrested while celebrating the
destruction of the </font><font color="#3366FF">Twin
Towers</font><font color="#FF0000">. Some were stopped and
discovered to possess evidence remarkably similar to that connected to
the 9-11 attack.<br><br>
These facts were all reported by the mainstream media immediately after
9-11. Rarely have they been reported since.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> as stated elsewhere, all
governments, and especially one as arrogant, stupid and ugly as this one,
will send out masses of publicity to make them look like they’re onto
something, they have the culprits under surveillance or arrest and so on
and on.<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">The FBI interviewed and interrogated those
arrested near Manhattan. No lie detector tests, no confessions (and
no torture) and no results were reported by the FBI before the suspects
were released. "The Terror Enigma," by Justin Raimondo,
takes a more in depth look at this suspicious feature, of possibly using
Israeli double agents and
</font><font color="#0000FF">Mossad</font><font color="#FF0000">
commandos masquerading as movers, artists, and students. Prior to 9-11,
these "artists" had been trying to infiltrate secure government
facilities and buildings. Quite likely they were part of
</font><font color="#0000FF">The Network.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> way too many unproved
insinuations.<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">Several men would be needed to assemble and
plant explosive devices in the weeks and perhaps months required to do
the job properly. According to one Finnish demo expert:
</font><font color="#3366FF"><i>"Ordering, preparing and
transportation of the charges for the demolition of the WTC. Solely
for the steel pillars of the outer circle 40 x 240 charges were needed,
let's say 10 000 cutting charges each weighing 50 lbs for each tower. For
WTC 7 at least 4000 charges were needed... 1) One needs to find out the
right size and dimensions of suitable cutting charges and then order 24
000 pieces. One must as well order fitting detonators (detonators
were needed a lot more). Fitting detonators usually already exist in
stores of military forces (or the CIA). Time of delivery is several
months in any case. All detonators must be equipped with some kind
of safety mechanism, which will be removed by a radio signal at the final
moment</i>."<br><br>
<i>"After this, the cutting charges are installed in the selected
rooms that are not in use. Some of these rooms may as well serve as
temporary storages for charges needed elsewhere. After this the
apartment is renovated and circulated to the clients in the WTC.
One man continuously assembles maybe 5 cutting charges per hour.
With 10 assemblers 350 charges are installed a day. As surplus
transportations of supplies, renovators and guards. Maybe about 20
people more were needed (5 of them know what is going on, 15 do
not). <br>
</i></font><font color="#FF00FF">>> but they sure as hell knew on
the 11th! how many of them have come forward?<br><br>
</font><font color="#3366FF"><i>For the installation of the charges this
operation takes at least four months with 30 men."<br><br>
</i></font><font color="#FF0000">Not ten thousand men, not even one
thousand. Just dedicated men who knew the importance of their
mission.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> but u also got to add the guys who
carried away the several hundred million in gold bullion bars
described below. as he says: <i>“how many men were needed for
this? You do the math.</i>” <br>
no, you do the math it’s your theory.<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">Probably not thousands of men; probably not
even hundreds.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> so let’s say 100 MINIMUM, maybe
200? now we have 20 top officials + 50 top commandos + 20 for
transportation, renovators and guards. that’s a MINIMUM 200 people,
maybe 300 according to you, some in the know on the
10</font><font size=1 color="#FF00FF"><sup>th</sup></font>
<font color="#FF00FF"> and the majority damn sure on the
11</font><font size=1 color="#FF00FF"><sup>th</sup></font>
<font color="#FF00FF">. many come forward yet? say in Russia
or China or Cuba or Venezuela or somewhere safe?<br><br>
</font><font color="#0000FF">The Network</font><font color="#FF0000">
would need top aviation and electronic specialists to control those jumbo
jets while in flight. <br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> we just broke the MINIMUM 200
barrier, maybe 300 :)<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">Remote signal device may have been planted
in the buildings also. A couple dozen men at most were needed -
probably less - certainly not thousands. They would need men sworn
to no other ideology, aside from the mission and the immediate
rewards.<br><br>
Very likely those involved enjoyed vast intelligence capabilities.<br>
Very likely they included former or active members of the
</font><font color="#0000FF">Mossad</font><font color="#FF0000">, the
</font><font color="#0000FF">CIA</font><font color="#FF0000">, the
</font><font color="#0000FF">Pentagon</font><font color="#FF0000">,
possibly even the
</font><font color="#0000FF">FBI</font><font color="#FF0000">.
Indeed those
</font><font color="#0000FF">FBI</font><font color="#FF0000"> crime
fighters NOT privy to the master plan - like FBI Special agents John
O'Neill or Coleen Rowley - tried to warn their superiors, tried to warn
the US government, but were thwarted.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> again, were they thwarted or
ignored because their superiors were obsessed with their drug wars
etc?<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">Instead </font><font color="#0000FF">The
Network</font><font color="#FF0000"> operated like a separate entity, a
succubus. And no local law enforcement official, no ordinary
military official, no ordinary government official, enjoyed access to the
secret plan.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> but how many must have woken up to
it on the
11</font><font size=1 color="#FF00FF"><sup>th</sup></font>
<font color="#FF00FF">?<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">But somewhere along the way three key
security points were compromised.
</font><font color="#0000FF">Logan</font><font color="#FF0000"> airport,
</font><font color="#0000FF">NORAD</font><font color="#FF0000"> and
</font><font color="#0000FF">WTC-7</font><font color="#FF0000">.
The </font><font color="#0000FF">Network</font><font color="#FF0000">
accessed all 3 sites and gained entrance through insider
connections.
</font><font color="#0000FF">Logan</font><font color="#FF0000"> airport
through the Israeli security company that ran it;
</font><font color="#0000FF">NORAD</font><font color="#FF0000"> & the
command of the US Air Force to Dick Cheney on 9-11;
</font><font color="#0000FF">WTC-7</font><font color="#FF0000"> through
the </font><font color="#0000FF">CIA</font><font color="#FF0000">,
Silverstein Properties or Securacom, the company headed by Marvin
Bush. Not surprisingly, only a few top operatives were needed to
access each site. Not tens of thousands, as debunkers constantly
claim. Perhaps not even hundreds, but a few dozen, highly-trained
men performed their tasks to perfection, in the weeks before 9-11.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> approaching 300 MINIMUM, maybe
400. and again i ask: would blowing up the 3 towers not have been
enough to cause a war? why take all these extra risks?<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">Could </font><font color="#0000FF">Al
Qaeda</font><font color="#FF0000"> - or the 19 hijackers - have
compromised any of the 3 key points and gained access? No.
Could a group of top government insiders and their hired commandos have
accessed those 3 sites? Yes, easily.<br><br>
The </font><font color="#0000FF">Network</font><font color="#FF0000">
might have relied on remote-controlled planes from the very
beginning. Why trust a complex operation to 19 flight school
dropouts who spent more time in strip clubs than flight simulators?
The simplest scenario would use remote controlled planes, shadowed by
fast-moving guidance planes. The unidentified white plane reported
by several witnesses near Shanksville may have been such a
plane.<br><br>
But what happened to the original flights and the missing
passengers? Only the shadowy operatives of the
</font><font color="#0000FF">Network</font><font color="#FF0000"> know
for sure. What remains most peculiar, and thus most suspicious, are
the 4 flights themselves. Not only were the planes mostly empty of
passengers, but a couple of the planes - reported destroyed on 9-11- were
still registered and flying months later!<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> WHAT?! COME AGAIN! if
there’s any truth in this it counts AGAINST a conspiracy. unless it
was a bunch or morons which is stretching credulity too far.<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">Yes, there were flaws in the master plan.
The WTC-7 fires that were very likely set by a commando team sometime
after 12 noon on September 11th, convinced many gullible citizens and
government experts that a fiery conflagration had weakened the structure.
Yet the simple fact that WTC-7 was arsoned and then demolished seems
obvious. Building 7 had to be burned and then collapsed in a
controlled demolition, not only for diversionary purposes, but to destroy
sensitive Security & Exchange records of ongoing lawsuits involving
billions of dollars. Not surprisingly the floors that housed the
SEC records were the first to burn mysteriously.<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> a
5</font><font size=1 color="#FF00FF"><sup>th</sup></font>
<font color="#FF00FF"> mission then?<br><br>
<br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">Meanwhile, down below street level, a
</font><font color="#0000FF">heist worthy of
Hollywood</font><font color="#FF0000"> was taking place. How many
men were needed to move several hundred million in gold bullion
bars? You do the math. Probably not thousands of men;
probably not even hundreds. <br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> call it 100 then. so we’re at
400 MINIMUM, maybe 500. <br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">The company security guards may have been
ordered away - after all, building 7 was about to collapse. Power
to the alarm system may have been shut down. Who would restore it,
even if some honest security guard reported it disabled?<br><br>
So, was 9-11 a heist wrapped around an attack, or an attack wrapped
around a heist? If the gold was gone, how much went missing
exactly? How could Al Qaeda have taken it? How embarrassing
for New York City or US government officials to even admit some millions
in gold were taken, for many citizens might logically conclude 9-11 was
an inside job. And if a group of thieves not affiliated or
connected to the "terrorists" took the gold, why were they
never caught?<br>
</font><font color="#FF00FF">>> come on.<br><br>
</font><font color="#FF0000">Two truckloads of gold were recovered,
crushed in a tunnel, beneath the WTC complex. How many truckloads
got away?<br><br>
Nowadays we have many excellent detective shows on television but very
few good detectives when we really need them. If the WTC site had
been treated as a crime scene immediately following a week of rescue
work, the ingenuity of the crime might have been revealed. As it
was, 9-11 was sold to the public as an act of foreign terrorism from day
one and whatever evidence that might have been uncovered was hastily
removed and either destroyed or recycled.<br><br>
The years pass and
</font><font color="#0000FF">The</font><font color="#FF0000">
</font><font color="#0000FF">Crime of The
Century</font><font color="#FF0000"> -
</font><font color="#0000FF">9-11</font><font color="#FF0000"> - has
never been fully solved nor even adequately investigated. Readers
email me asking what proof I have of this scenario. Only gut
instinct and common sense. If it looks like a crime scene and
people profited immensely, I think any good detective might also have
suspicions. I ask believers what proof they have of the government
version of 9-11 events. They quote me the testimony of government
approved experts. They offer me a fuzzy videotape of someone
identified as </font><font color="#0000FF">Osama bin
Laden</font><font color="#FF0000">. They mention a charred passport
miraculously found a few blocks from the demolished WTC.<br><br>
Not enough evidence to fit in a shoebox or stand up in a court of
law. Besides, taking the word of a bad government, never known for
speaking the truth, is not good practice.<br>

content. They were broadcasting VIDEO on the Internet in one of the

a Fairlight CV computer instrument and Amiga Toaster technology.
<br><br>
Peter H. Rosen attended his first </font><font color="#FF00FF">Zippy

<font color="#808080"> spoke of

captured in one word, the spirit of Rosen's vision of a place (i.e.
</font><font color="#FF00FF">Creativity

difference in each others lives and our world, can hang out, collaborate,
gain access to technology and mentors, and meet the ingredients to help
with mounting their success (whatever that means to them). <br><br>
One of the
</font><font color="#FF00FF">Zippy</font><font color="#808080"> troupe
teamed with Peter Rosen to produce the very first

</font><font size=6 color="#0000FF">George Gurdjieff<br>
</font></div>
<font color="#800080">His departure was typical.<br><br>
The ambulance men brought the stretcher to his room, but he wouldn't have
this, and walked out into the hall and got on to the stretcher there,
sitting back, saying,
</font><font color="#0000FF"><i>"Oy!"</i></font>
<font color="#800080"> as he always does.<br><br>
He did not dress, but wore pyjamas, and his red fez on his
head. He sat upright on the stretcher, and was carried away
like a royal prince! All the family was clustered at the street
door (the crusty old concierge was in tears!) and as they carried him
across the pavement he made a little gesture, a sort of wave, with his
hand and said, </font><font color="#0000FF"><i>"Au revoir, tout le
monde!"<br><br>
</i></font><font color="#800080">The last sight of him was as he was
carried into the ambulance, sitting very upright, with his head up, his
fez at a rakish angle and his cigarette between his lips.<br>
</font>J. G. Bennett, <i>Idiots in Paris.<br><br>
</i><font color="#800080">On the night of Wednesday 26 October 1949
Gurdjieff arrived at the American Hospital at Neuilly and entered the
private room on the first floor which he was not destined to leave
alive.<br><br>
The treatment was successful but the patient died: this basically is the
sequel. And no one was to blame. (The disbelieving hospital
pathologist would later find every organ in Gurdjieff’s body wasted down
to a minimal function) He arrived dropsical. Early in the
morning Dr Welch performed a puncture and drainage, while his
patient predictably wearing his fez and cloaked in a rich camelhair
coat manoeuvred a cup of hot black coffee and a wooden cigarette
holder. Even in this dangerous and surreal extremity, G appeared
entirely master of the situation:
</font><font color="#0000FF"><i>“Only if you not tired,
Doctor”</i></font><font color="#800080"> he said to Welch with indulgent
irony. <br><br>
Yet as Thursday dragged on, the old man sank under a welter of intrusive
tests and irritating palliatives. By midday he could barely
recognise his family. In the afternoon he delivered his final
instructions to </font><font color="#0000FF">Jeanne de
Salzmann</font><font color="#800080"> slowly, painfully:<br><br>
</b></font><font size=4 color="#0000FF"><i>“The essential thing, the
first thing, is to prepare a nucleus of people capable of responding to
the demand which will arise... So long as there is no responsible
nucleus, the action of the ideas will not go beyond a certain
threshold. That will take time... a lot of time, even.”<br><br>
</i></font><font color="#800080"><b>These are his last recorded
words. George Ivanovitch Gurdjieff died in the American Hospital at

from the sovereign state of</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080">Kazakhstan</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#993300">have been lavishly subsidising the publicity
for Baron Cohen's new movie with fury-filled full-page government ads in
the </font><font color="#008080"><i>New York
Times</i></font><font color="#993300">, a personal complaint from the
Kazakh president to Mr George W Bush, followed by a belated and
half-hearted official invitation to Baron Cohen to come visit. <br><br>
Borat is the hero of this extraordinary mocu-reality adventure: a film so
funny, so breathtakingly offensive, so suicidally discourteous, that
strictly speaking it shouldn't be legal at all. He is the naive
provincial TV reporter supposedly from</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080">Kazakhstan</font><font color="#993300">,
though it is clear that this "Kazakhstan" is a joke cardboard
country, a post-Soviet neverland picked at random, as cheerfully as
Robert De Niro and Dustin Hoffman, the spin doctors in the political
satire </font><font color="#008080"><i>Wag The

picked</font><font color="#800080">
"</font><font color="#008080">Albania</font><font color="#993300">

Reportedly, Baron Cohen was actually inspired to create
</font><font color="#008080">Borat</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#993300">by his youthful travels as a student in the
then Soviet republic of Georgia. Borat is immeasurably funny.
Our hero leaves his dirt-poor</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080">Kazakh</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#993300">village, and travels to New York with a
cameraman and his obese and unreliable producer to make a documentary for
state TV. He experiences an epiphany there in his budget
hotel-room, whose opulence has already reduced him to tears of
incredulous joy. <br><br>
Watching a re-rerun of</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080"><i>Baywatch</i></font><font color="#800080">
, he falls in love with </font><font color="#008080">Pamela
Anderson</font><font color="#800080"> </font><font color="#993300">and
journeys across the United States to Los Angeles, where he dreams of
subjecting her to the Kazakh forcible-marriage ceremony, whose legality
he believes will be just as valid in America as at home. Grinning
nervously, unable to comprehend anything of what he sees or
hears,</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080">Borat</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#993300">is an innocent of the guiltiest sort: he is
boorish, he is grotesquely misogynist, he is crass. <br><br>
Above all he is an anti-semite, and for cinemagoers who have become used
to the unwritten convention that anti-semitism is not represented on
screen other than in the period garb of Nazi Germany, it is almost a
physical shock to feel the swipe of</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080">Borat</font><font color="#800080">'s
</font><font color="#993300">contemporary bigotry. The last time I
experienced this was listening to Terry Jones's sentimental cleaning-lady
in Monty Python's</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080"><i>The Meaning Of
Life</i></font><font color="#800080"> </font><font color="#993300">in
1983:</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080"><i>"I feel that life's a game, you
sometimes win or lose/And though I may be down right now, at least I
don't work for Jews</i></font><font color="#993300">." But
this really is something else. <br><br>
One of the first sequences is</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080">Borat</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#993300">introducing a TV clip showing one of his
community's oldest folk traditions: the</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080">Running of the
Jew</font><font color="#993300">. It is quite incredible, and
conceived on an epic scale to rival the chariot race
from</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080"><i>Ben-Hur</i></font><font color="#800080">
. </font><font color="#993300">Obviously, Sacha Baron Cohen is
himself Jewish and perhaps we should here quickly rehearse the saloon-bar
truisms: only Jewish people are allowed to tell Jewish jokes, if these
comedians wanted to be dangerous why don't they take on Islam - yes, yes,
quite ... but is Sacha Baron Cohen really allowed to do this? Is
anyone? It is a sensational provocation, a 19th-century
anti-semitic cartoon gigantically reborn in the 21st century. in which
anti-semitism is alive and well all over the world. in places where they
have incidentally never heard of the liberal West's carefully nurtured
distinction between anti-semitism and anti-Zionism. It goes beyond
satire into pure anarchy, pure craziness. And it's also very funny.
<br><br>
From the way it is shot, some of
</font><font color="#008080">Borat</font><font color="#993300">'s
encounters could be staged. I certainly hope that
</font><font color="#008080">Pamela
Anderson</font><font color="#993300">'s final encounter with
</font><font color="#008080">Borat</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#993300">happened with her connivance. But the
best moments, and that's pretty much all of them, have the unmistakable
look of real people really being astonished and horrified
by</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080">Borat</font><font color="#800080">.
</font><font color="#993300">He hits a comic goldmine simply by going up
to male New Yorkers on the streets and trying to kiss them on both
cheeks. One screams abuse; another skips away, zig-zagging,
hunching his shoulders and flapping his arms at the elbow like a
10-year-old evading a wasp. It is sublime. <br><br>
Baron Cohen really shows his class when Borat is a guest at a Texan
rodeo. He fearlessly strides into the centre of the ring with his
mic, loudly praises his hosts' <i>"War of Terror"</i>, leads
wild cheering when he expresses the hope that Iraq is bombed so that even
the lizards are killed, but then with magnificent effrontery allows his
audience to suspect they've been duped by singing a transparently
absurd</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080"><i>"Kazakh national
anthem</font><font color="#993300">"</i> about potassium production
to the tune of </font><font color="#008080">The Star-Spangled
Banner</font><font color="#800080">.
</font><font color="#993300">The sheer miasma of wrongness and unease
that washes over the crowd causes a young cowgirl demonstrating
horse-riding techniques to lose her concentration and fall off her horse
at the end of</font><font color="#800080">
</font><font color="#008080">Borat</font><font color="#993300">'s song: a
brilliantly surreal moment. <br><br>
The fascination of
</font><font color="#008080">Borat</font><font color="#800080">'</font>
<font color="#993300">s comedy situationism, his theatre of cruelty, is
that its hero is deeply unsympathetic. Ali G had a kind of goofy
charm, but
</font><font color="#008080">Borat</font><font color="#993300"> is just
so horrible, with a deplorable quality mitigated only by his
ineffectuality. </font><font color="#008080">Borat
2</font><font color="#993300"> must surely now be in the works: perhaps a
