  I have spent years studying prophecies and conspiracies. I know what most people say just another conspiracy theorist. And you may be right, But I was not always this way I was raised to love my country and I did. I served during the first Gulf War. Nothing fancy I served in the Signal Corps. I just did my job like 300,000 or so other guys. And dreamed of the war ending and coming home to my wife and kid.

   But I started to note discrepancies in things. Stories on the news that where not true or slanted in such a way to make things look totally different. When the war was over I came home and was honorably discharged. I had had enough of war to last me for the rest of my life. 

  Then I started getting sick. I had always been fairly Healthy and was in good shape after 5 years in the military. I soon Found out that a lot of other guys where getting sick also. A lot of them were dying.  Then I discovered the sickness had a name Gulf War Syndrome. A few months latter I heard there was a possibility this Illness was due to the shot they forced us to take over There. I still believed they had tried to do something good I really did I didn’t blame the government for making me sick I just figured they had tried to help the best they could and it went bad. Hell sometimes when playing poker you can loose with a strait flush. I figured I’d play the hand I was dealt no big deal.

    Then one day I was watching the news and they briefly explained about this new law that congress had passed. It all sounded great but what it boiled down to was that because of the Gulf War vets being sick and the ruckus over it because they had told us the drugs where experimental. They had passed it into law that they could use experimental drugs on US Soldiers without telling them about it. Now that hit a nerve. Why would they do this to us I wondered. It was not till years latter when I found out the supposed speed pills they had us taking in massive doses. Might not have even been speed but some drug that had been outlawed for use in Humans altogether.

    Then one day I was watching a special on Agent Orange on TV. I have met a few of the guys that where badly affected but the stuff. Some of them live in terrible states. I am old enough to remember news broadcasts that stated nothing was wrong with these poor men the government assured us.  Then many years latter they said oh we are so sorry we where wrong we let all you guys suffer. Ridiculed you ostracized you made outcasts out of heroes. Why you ask we’ll that’s what I’m here to tell you. The answer is very simple money it was cheaper to watch them die homeless because they could no longer hold down a regular job than take care of them. Who would believe a sick homeless drunk (who probably started drinking to kill the pain because the VA to this day has a real problem giving out pain killers)? Instead of the US government. Good old Uncle Sam In his red white and blue suit wouldn’t lie to you (Would He?) I personally know a man on total VA disability that finally got them only when he got so sick from drinking all the time he was hospitalized for 3 days. When the Doctor told him to lay of the juice he cussed the Doctor out and told him that if they’d do their  %@%*&&#! Job he wouldn’t be drinking in the first #%^@$#@ place. Instead they send you to pain management classes where they tell you to deal with it. While they probably get a prescription for a hangnail. These men where the best of the best. The toughest Army in the world that’s what they tell us. Now when they get sick they would have you believe that we are all a bunch of winning pansies that have nothing wrong with us. So witch is are we the best of the best or a bunch of whining pansies. We’ll I guess it depends on witch way suits them best at the time.

   That’s when the light went of in my head. You have questions to. Or you would not be reading this good tax paying Americans don’t read this kind of shit do they. Something has put doubt in your mind. Things you see on the news. Things that the party explanation does not add up to you, things you’ve seen, or my personal favorite things you’ seen and then heard a totally different view on the news. And you wonder what the hell was the newsman drinking. Think you’ll probably remember more of these instances than you thought. That’s really why you’re here isn’t it. The party line just isn’t adding up any more.

 Now the real question is who the!  $@$%@ Let this happen the Founding Fathers put in place checks and balances to prevent this. We’ll I’m sorry to say WE DID you me and every one else. By not holding them accountable. And even worse we still are letting them do it. Look at the POW’s in Vietnam we let our govt’s abandon our heroes men that suffered for US some died for US, some where tortured for US, and we lat the abandon those men. What if one of them was your son or daughter. Now it could happen to our daughters to. Then what would you think of Good Old Uncle Sam. What would you be willing to do to get them back still nothing? I wish I had more money so I could ease my own conscience by doing more than I do with these articles. But maybe someday I will inspire somebody who can do more to do it and take action MAYBYE. And maybe we will start holding them accountable for what WE PAY THEM TO DO. They have forgotten who they work for they work for you. Not the other way around as the current regime and the ones before it seem to think. They are our employees with makes US responsible for what they do.

   Her are a few things OUR EMPLOYEES HAVE DONE IN RECENT YEARS IN OUR NAME!

    Link TV
     Link did a piece a couple of days ago on soldiers they showed a soldiers id. The man got a purple heart and refused to go back. But what caught my eye was they showed his id card next to his face. It was one of the smart cards with the computer chip in it. Seems to be somewhat of a push to get Bill Clinton to run the UN.GOD I hope these Idiots cant pulls this of nothing like a murderer running the UN.
 
 

  Chief Justice Roy Moore is fighting the removal of a monument depicting the 10 commandments from a capital building in Alabama. To his credit he states most correctly that the 10 Commandments are the cornerstone of our judicial system. The cowards in the Supreme Court will not hear the case. He has until midnight tonight to remove it 5 hours left I hope for all our sakes he sticks to his guns and tells the court that told him to remove it where to go.

*I remember a few years ago the Los Angeles times reported they had uncovered evidence that the C.I.A.  Was dealing drugs to the Crips gang I heard latter that the reporter that wrote the story lost his job and had the I.R.S. crawling through every orifice of his body for awhile so much for freedom of the press. 
  At a latter note the Reporter who wrote the article was audited and dismissed from the LA Times. He now works for a little News Paper in the middle of nowhere. So much for freedom of the press Huh?

     Readers Digest/Fox news
   Readers Digest did a piece on terrorism in their march 2002 issue witch called for national biometric ID cards, retinal scans, face recognition software in high risk areas such as airports. This is just a way to take more of constitutional rights and will have little effect on terrorism. Big Brother can’t protect people better than the people themselves. They tried this in New York City by taking away People right to carry guns or even own them and the crime went away (YEAH RIGHT ha ha that why NYC is the cesspool it is). So why are people willing to give up the right our forefathers fought and died for an illusion of safety is beyond me. I’m not getting a biometric id card I can tell you right now. But many will think it’s a great idea I am sure.

*Read an article on the biochip written by Heath C. Goodman where he talked about Carl Sanders the man that invented the biochip and how Al Gore called for this in his book  " A Government that works better and costs less" on page 114 but what caught my eye was the part about the smart card being the forerunner to the biochip.

     Fox News
      A terrorist group claims to have been responsible for the massive blackouts. Cliams to have been a cyber attack, A government spokesman stated and I quote " I would be lying if I said it was not possible" The Federal Government says there are still no indications that it was terrorist related. But they are also saying that the grid was doing strange things hours before the power went out. Massive lines going down even though the system was only operating at 75% capacity. One person stated that that happening was about as easy as shutting down I 95 DURING RUSH HOUR. But yet it happened and so far know one is sure why, so I would not rule out terrorism at this point. They said awhile back they did a test with Hackers and they were able to simulate that they could disrupt the power grid. The Govt. spokesman also said all it would take was a laptop and determination.
  Also on fox they were showing pictures of the searches in Iraq. Still no weapons of mass detruction. But the pictures I am seeing look allot like house to house disarmament, a whole lot of ak's being seized
  We wee disusing the bible and bad translations FOR INSTANCE Dragons one bible dictionary says they are lizards or jackals but in at least 2 places that I have found one in Job one in Revalation.It says something about the Dragons ability to breath fire, sounds like a good old fashioned fire breathing Dragon to me. Never heard of a lizard or a jackal that had the ability to breath fire.
  There are problems between Israel and Palestine (surprise huh) the Palestinian terrorist groups don’t want to be disarmed and the Israelis don’t wont to release prisoners that they are supposed to. I don’t know I don’t even like to see bad guys get disarmed because maybe next week Christians will be on the bad guy list or conservatives. Dont get me wrong I don’t support terrorism in any way but. I believe that you should punish an Individual not a group. And in the Palestinians defense And I don’t even like Muslims That would be my racist point I'm sure. After WWII The United Nations Gave the Jews something that was not theirs to give. And as much as I Admire Israel the Palestinians have every right to be pissed. And the UN had to know that creating the country or re-establishing it however you want to look at it on soil that the Palestinians had held for so long would be creating a tempest in a teapot. Or maybe that was their intention. Our Gov't. Did embrace that bastard Hitler at first. Maybe just maybe they though that by giving the Jews back Israel the would finish what Hitler started by letting the 2 groups annihilate each other. Otherise we could have given them something that was ours to give say California, the bleeding harts out there should not have minded RIGHT (YEA SURE I BETT THE CALIFORNIA LIBERALS THAT FUCK UP SO MUCH OF OUR GREAT NATION WOULD HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH A FEW MILLION JEWS BEING DUMPED ON THEM). So much for practicing what they preach.
 The ACLU wants a gag order on their defense of
NAMBLA North American Man Boy Love Association. You know I'm all for defending peoples right but the ACLU really pisses me off they wont defend my right to own a gun or my right to think that its wrong for a grown man to seduce a young boy. But they will defend these homosexual pedophiles right to traumatize these young boys. Becuse they are sick. But why don’t they protect the rights of the young boys who have not done anything to harm someone. I always believed the main precept to the constitution was that you could do what you want as long as you don’t infringe on someone else’s rights, or do them harm. You can own a gun but if you harm someone without good cause you’ll spend the rest of your life in jail. Now that I agree with. Each person should be held accountable for his or her own actions and if you do harm without just cause you most definitely should be held accountable and punished don’t blame the gun if someone gets killed for no reason or during the commission of a crime. Blame the asshole that pulled the trigger, and then punish him for it. If someone knocks over a liquor store you don’t blame his school or his parents you blame him try him and then punish him. Lots of kids grew up with less than perfect parents and made something of them. So quit making excuses for them. If a man purposely kills without a dam good reason fry him in the chair. I know what allot of you semi liberal Christians will say thou shalt not kill. I have one thing to say to all of you. READ THE BOOK OF JUDGES where it spells out for what offences a person can be put to death for. Our whole judicial system is spelled out in this book so read it and then throw the switch like the bible says. Also just a though for you to ponder if the American Civil Liberties Union was trying to protect Americans rights. Why would they try to put a gag order on the man whose to sons were RAPED killed by 2 men who were members of NAMBLA.So the father is suing NAMBLA why would they not honor his freedom of speach, and allow him to say what HE belives, to anyone who will listen. I guess the ACLU only believes the sickos have constitutional rights.

 After the Terri Shivo disaster. There is another old Lady in Georgia that is has had he feeding tube removed and is starving to death. Her granddaughter is her guardian and has decided to pull them against the families will. She is NOT in a Coma she is not in a Vegetative state she is blind and old and has a living will that states to do everything you can to keep her alive. But they have pulled her feeding tubes anyway. Because her granddaughter in her infinite wisdom is sure that even though she says she wants to live. Surly know one would want to live like this she’s so old. So it has stated euthanasia first we kill our babies now we kill our old. 

   Have you ever heard the term Acams Razor? It is a scientific term simply put all things being equal the simplest answer is usually the correct one.

 Why where over 200 witnesses not allowed testifying that they saw a missile shoot down flight 800.Including a Vietnam combat chopper pilot that would dam sure know what a missile strike would look like. And why was in not more widely publicized that it had taken the slot of an Israeli air flight that had mechanical problems. Why did all the initial news reports say it had been shot down?

Why was not one of the Branch Dividians in Waco convicted of a crime? I watched the congressional hearings on it and congress basically found no grounds for any of it. If it hadn’t been so tragic all the FBI playing CYA it would have been hilarious you should watch them.
Why where soldiers there isn’t that a big no no?

Why was Janet Reno who started the whole Waco mess promoted to Attorney General? @#$%@% Up Move up?

Why was Oklahoma City initially not allowed to do their own investigation into the bombing?

Why was Timothy Mc Viegh in custody a few hours after the bombing for an expired license plate?

Here is something I just plucked of the net on that subject I did not write it.

OKC BOMBING FALLOUT
FBI has secret docs
it's reticent to give up
Judge ordered disclosure of info on informants that could shed light on Oklahoma City tragedy
Posted: May 25, 2005

The FBI says it has located 340 documents related to the bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building in 1995, documents that could reveal damaging information about what the agency and its informants knew about the mass murder plot, reports the McCurtain Daily Gazette.

According to the report in the McCurtain County, Okla., paper, the documents address the monitoring of the bombing by FBI informants, Alabama attorney Morris Dees and Dees' organization, the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Writes reporter J.D. Cash in the Gazette: "If proven true, the ramifications of such disclosures would be far-reaching. Not only could the discovery of these documents lead to additional arrests and prosecutions in the OKC bombing case, but evidence of a cover-up of a sting operation involving the FBI and a private charity could ruin a number of careers of highly placed individuals."

The documents are part of an extensive filing made in federal court in Salt Lake City, Utah, on Monday. A court order was obtained by Salt Lake City attorney Jesse Trentadue, the plaintiff in a Freedom of Information suit against the Oklahoma City FBI office, the Gazette reported. Trentadue has been seeking evidence in the untimely death of his brother, whose body was found beaten and slashed while the inmate awaited a parole violation hearing.

Trentadue believes his brother was tortured and killed by government agents who mistakenly thought he was involved with executed killer Timothy McVeigh and others in a string of bank robberies and the bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building.

After learning the FBI was involved in a sting operation with the Southern Poverty Law Center, Trentadue, the Gazette reports, sought a copy of two teletypes from former FBI Director Louis Freeh that discussed the undercover operation "that proved the FBI knew in advance McVeigh's plans for bombing a federal building."

The FBI initially denied it had the teletypes, but after Trentadue produced redacted copies of them, he went to court to force the FBI to cough up copies of their original un-redacted versions.

On May 5, U.S. District Court Judge Dale A. Kimball ordered the FBI to turn over un-redacted copies of two teletypes sent by Freeh to a select group of FBI field offices, including the OKBOMB task force in Oklahoma City. Kimball's order also included instructions to perform an extensive search for other records involving McVeigh, his alleged co-conspirators and informants working for the Southern Poverty Law Center.

The paper reported that, according to a Jan. 4, 1996, teletype, Freeh disclosed the Southern Poverty Law Center had an informant at the white supremacist Elohim City compound when McVeigh called the facility requesting assistance with his plans. The teletype said the call was made on April 17, 1995 – 48 hours before a truck bomb destroyed the Murrah Federal Building, killing 168 persons and injuring 500 more.

For years, the FBI has repeatedly denied the agency had any prior knowledge of the bomb plot.

The FBI now says it has found 340 documents that could also link the SPLC to McVeigh, Elohim City and members of the Aryan Republican Army.

On Monday, the FBI proposed several alternatives to turning over the documents listed in Kimball's order, saying it did not have time to comply with the judge's order to turn over the material Trentadue is seeking by June 15.

Said an agency representative: "In the past, the backlog in the FOIPA Section has been exacerbated by the high volume of administrative appeals that will require review and response by the FBI's FOIPA Section personnel. … At the present time, the FBI is involved in over 150 pending lawsuits in various federal district and appellate courts throughout the United States."

The agency further argued that revealing the elements of its intelligence-gathering operation at Elohim City would not be in the best interests of the nation.

FBI Tries To Limit Info Searches

BI Tries To Limit Info Searches
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21, 2005
 

The FBI is fighting in court to limit how hard it has
to search for government documents requested by the
public under the Freedom of Information Act, one of
the main laws for ensuring openness in government.

If the bureau prevails, people could have a diminished
chance of getting documents from the nation's most
famous law enforcement agency, open records experts
said.

In court, the FBI is defending a recent automated
search that missed some documents that had been
released years ago in a separate FOIA case.

Representing the FBI, the Justice Department asked a
federal judge this month to dismiss this lawsuit and
said its request should not be undermined "by an
unsuccessful search for a document as long as the
search was adequate." FBI officials declined to
further address the ongoing litigation.

Justice Department guidelines say the law requires a
search "reasonably calculated to uncover all relevant
documents."

Legal and academic critics say the search in this case
didn't meet that standard. They said they suspect the
transfer of records from paper to electronic files has
become an excuse for doing cursory searches that the
government knows won't retrieve all relevant
documents.

"We all thought that digitization of government
documents and electronic FOIA would mean greater
public access, but time and again we've seen
government agencies use it as an excuse for
obfuscation," said Jane Kirtley, a University of
Minnesota journalism professor who has waged many FOIA
battles. "They say, 'We don't have the software set up
to find what you're looking for.'"

The lawsuit in question was filed by Salt Lake City
lawyer Jesse Trentadue, who is pursuing a theory his
brother Kenneth was murdered in a federal prison
isolation cell in Oklahoma City on Aug. 21, 1995.
Kenneth's bloody and bruised corpse raised questions
of foul play among many officials, but local and
federal investigations ruled his death a suicide.

Last summer, Trentadue requested:

* A Jan. 4, 1996, teletype from FBI Director Louis
Freeh's office to the Oklahoma City and Omaha, Neb.,
offices that discussed the 1995 Oklahoma City federal
building bombers (the FBI's OKBOMB case) and a Midwest
gang of bank robbers (the FBI's BOMBROB case). He
enclosed a newspaper story with excerpts from the
teletype.

* The FBI's record of an interview Trentadue says
he gave an agent and two Justice Department officials
Aug. 12, 1996, discussing his dead brother and the
bank robbery gang, including one member who resembled
Kenneth.

* All documents about any connection between the
Southern Poverty Law Center and eight named
individuals from the OKBOMB and BOMBROB investigations
or a white supremacist compound in Elohim City, Okla.

The FBI told Trentadue Nov. 18 it found no documents
matching his requests.

Trentadue responded Nov. 30 by filing with the court a
copy of the January 1996 teletype, which he had found
in the meantime had been released under FOIA in 1997.
Trentadue also submitted a copy of an August 1996
teletype from Freeh's office that said two of the bank
robbers were present when Oklahoma City bomber Tim
McVeigh called the Elohim City compound. That too was
released years earlier under FOIA.

Trentadue asked the court to order another FBI search.

But this month, the Justice Department told the court
that, despite not uncovering those documents, "the
FOIA search in this case was reasonable."

David M. Hardy, chief of the FBI's record/information
dissemination section, told the court the FBI had
searched the general indices to its central records
system and two shared computer drives in the Oklahoma
City office.

Hardy, however, acknowledged the indices are not
complete. "The FBI does not index every name in its
files," Hardy told the court. The investigating agent
and supervisors have discretion to index other names
if they are "considered pertinent, relevant or
essential for future retrieval."

It's not clear that any other federal agency has an
index like the FBI's, and many federal agencies do
paper rather than computerized FOIA searches.

Given the details Trentadue provided, Rebecca
Daugherty, director of the FOI Service Center at the
Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, said the
government's response "doesn't sound reasonable."

"To ignore the map given by the requester is something
the FBI should not be doing," Daugherty said. "If a
requester can accurately describe a case so the agency
can easily find the file, then it's reasonable to
search that case file."

Citing the litigation, FBI Assistant Director
Cassandra Chandler declined to say how much detail
requesters must supply to extend a search beyond FBI
indices to case files.

She also declined to say how the "OKBOMB" search could
fail to produce the January teletype, in which the
first listed subject was "OKBOMB." Trentadue also
supplied the correct date, sender, two accurate
recipients and direct quotes.

Despite refusing in court this month to redo the
search even after Trentadue supplied copies of two
teletypes, the FBI changed its response once The
Associated Press inquired about the case.

FBI spokesman Mike Kortan said that after Trentadue
supplied the two documents the FBI was able to find
them and would provide him copies.
