6th August

Colonel Arthur Anderson is the chief of human use and ethics at the United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID), the bioweapons facility where Dr. Ivins worked and where the anthrax strains were apparently obtained by the anthrax killer.

The FBI’s emerging, leaking case against Ivins

Posted by seumasach on August 5, 2008

5th August, 2008

It’s certainly possible that once the FBI closes its investigation and then formally unveils its evidence — which apparently will happen tomorrow — a very convincing case will be made that Bruce Ivins perpetrated the anthrax attacks and did so alone. But what has been revealed thus far — through the standard ritual of selected Government leaks which the establishment media, with some exceptions, just mindlessly re-prints no matter how frivolous — is creating the opposite impression. The FBI’s coordinated leaking is making their claim to have solved the anthrax case appear quite dubious, in some instances laughably so.

The Real State of the US Economy

Henry Paulson has lost the control over US finance

William F. Engdahl

Global Research

2nd August, 2008

When Henry Paulson agreed to leave his job as chairman of the powerful Wall Street investment bank, Goldman Sachs to go to Washington as Treasury Secretary in 2006 he demanded extraordinary powers as de facto economic czar. He got it. Paulson is also head of the President’s Working Group on Financial Markets — the secretary of the treasury and the chairmen of the Federal Reserve Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. The Working Group is the financial world’s equivalent of the Pentagon war room. Paulson, not Fed chairman Bernanke, is the person running the Administration’s crisis management. And his recent actions indicate he has lost control as the snowballing problems from the semi-government mortgage companies Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae to the collapse of the multi-trillion dollar market in Asset Backed Securities (ABS) to the real economy are compounding into the worst crisis since the 1930’s Great Depression.

Recipe for an Islamist Terror Attack

5 de Agosto de 2008

Libertad Digital

Translation at foot of each paragraph

En primer lugar, véndasele a la población española que las bombas del 11-M se montaron en una casa de Morata propiedad de un miembro de Al Qaeda (Mohamed Needl Acaid). Eso sí, a ese miembro de Al Qaeda no sólo no se le imputa en la causa (debe de ser que las bombas se montaron en su casa por casualidad), sino que ni siquiera llega a tomársele declaración durante la fase de instrucción.

 

[Firstly sell the Spanish public the idea that the 11-M[[11th March 2004 bombings in Madrid] bombs were set up in a house in Morata beonging to an Al-queda  member, Mohamed Needl Acaid. Make sure that this member of Al-queda not only isn’t implicated in the case( the bombs must have been set up there accidently), but isn’t even questioned by the investigating judge.]

Who Will Protect Us From Scotland Yard?

Posted by seumasach on August 5, 2008

 

Craig Murray

4th August, 2008

“The reaction from here [Scotland Yard] is, rightly or wrongly, that any re-investigation will be unlikely to reach any different conclusion.” – Sky News, 4 August, 12.18pm. Scotland Yard have been briefing journalists furiously for the last forty eight hours that Barry George is guilty and the jury got it wrong. Two teams of detectives, they told the Sky reporter, had investigated the case and reached the same conclusion. Disgracefully Sky News are challenging poor George – who has a mental age of 10 – to take a lie detector test.

The anthrax attack was a classic false flag attack blamed on Arabs

Posted by seumasach on August 5, 2008

George Washington’s Blog

Whether or not Bruce Ivins had a role in the anthrax attacks, trying to now blame him alone for the attacks is ignoring the elephant in the room: the anthrax attack was a classic false flag attack blamed on Arabs.

Influence of Malthus and Darwin on the European Elite

Posted by seumasach on August 4, 2008

I was moved to post this after seeing Richard Dawkins’s latest attempt to resuscitate Darwinism in its entirety(channel 4, UK), under the pretext of opposing creationism. The Malthusian aspect received marked emphasis. The Malthusian agenda seems to be a logical consequence of oligarchy and can be either extensive, the clearing of people from the heartlands to become colonizers, or intensive, culling pure and simple. The alternative of flourishing sovereign states, harnessing technology for the common good and coexisting in harmony is an abomination in the eyes of the elite.

Even slow-breeding man has doubled in twenty-five years, and at this rate, in a few thousand years, there would literally not be standing room for his progeny….” –Charles Darwin

Scientists Question FBI Probe On Anthrax

Posted by seumasach on August 4, 2008

As we are seeing time and time again, in the “war on terror” there is no suspect like a dead suspect.

Ivins Could Not Have Been Attacker, Some Say

 

By Joby Warrick, Marilyn W. Thompson and Aaron C. Davis

Washington Post

3rd August

For nearly seven years, scientist Bruce E. Ivins and a small circle of fellow anthrax specialists at Fort Detrick’s Army medical lab lived in a curious limbo: They served as occasional consultants for the FBI in the investigation of the deadly 2001 anthrax attacks, yet they were all potential suspects.
