McCain Bill Deepens Organized Crime's Lock on Parties
This article appears in the Aug. 30, 2002 issue of Executive Intelligence Review.
New Yorker magazine's resident John McCain propagandist Elizabeth Drew recently wrote Citizen McCain (duly deposited on the New York Times nonfiction bestseller list), lauding the Arizona mobbed-up legislator and his Campaign Finance Reform Bill as the best things to hit Washington since Teddy Roosevelt (see review in EIR, June 21). But, if the truth be told, the so-called McCain-Feingold Act is the biggest boost to organized crime's control over the Federal government, since McCain bankroller Charles Keating was hauled off to Federal prison in the 1990s, leaving far more than five members of the House and Senate with gaping holes in their wallets and offshore bank accounts.
While cutting off all "soft money" contributions—except from Indian tribes with huge gambling revenues, which dot the landscapes of McCain's Arizona and pol-pal Joe Lieberman's Connecticut—the Campaign Finance Reform Bill made no dent in the power or contributions of political action committees (PACs). PAC power, particularly AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) power was in full display in two recent Southern primaries, when out-of-state Zionist Lobby PAC money and the individual contributions of members of dozens of AIPAC-run PACS defeated two incumbent members of the Congressional Black Caucus, who dared to be critical of Israel's own serial war criminal, Ariel Sharon, the current Prime Minister.
Alabaman Earl Hilliard was defeated in the June 25 Democratic Party primary by Artur Davis, a candidate who was overtly put up and bankrolled by out-of-state Zionist Lobby interests, to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars, plus reportedly an ample supply of Election Day pocket cash, with which to buy votes. Davis had been escorted around the floor of the AIPAC convention in Washington, D.C. weeks before the primary vote, like a prize poodle.
On Aug. 20, Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-Ga.), who had enraged the Zionist Lobby and some Republicans by her refusal to accept the "official version" of the events of Sept. 11, 2001, and had demanded a thorough and transparent investigation, was defeated by a political neophite, Denise Majette, an African-American judge, who received over a million dollars in campaign dole, almost exclusively from out-of-state Zionist Lobby PAC rats.
In a New York Times interview, published Aug. 22, Morris Amitay, the former longtime executive director of AIPAC, flaunted the Zionist Lobby's PAC attack on Hilliard and McKinney: "This shows that there is a price to pay for taking a position that is out of step with the view of most Americans." Of course, Amitay was lying through his teeth about the issues that sank McKinney. In fact, most Americans shared McKinney's and Hilliard's disgust at the Nazi-like atrocities committed against the Palestinian people by the Israeli Defense Forces, since Sharon took power.
What worked against McKinney and Hilliard was the pure, corrupt power of money: AIPAC-run PAC money, and the personal cash of the legions of AIPAC lemmings, who blindly put their money where AIPAC's mouth is.
After November 2002, when the McCain-Feingold Act goes into effect, the power of the PACs, especially the AIPAC nexus of tightly intertwined PACs, which trace all of their seed funding to the Michael Milken-Charles Keating swindlers loot of the 1980s and early '90s junk-bond and savings and loan scams, will be even more powerful.
Under the guise of "campaign reform," Bull-Mooser McCain delivered a big payback to his financial angels in organized crime.
Under the headline, "PAC Attack II: Why Some Groups Are Learning To Love Campaign Finance Reform," Thomas B. Edsall and Juliet Eilperin wrote, "Instead of reducing the power wielded by special interest groups in American elections, the McCain-Feingold reform bill is magnifying that power and making PACs, the bêtes noires of Common Cause and other good government groups, key players in campaign financing once again."
The authors continued, "Now, the McCain-Feingold ban on the use of soft money by the national parties has abruptly made 'hard money'—smaller contributions of up to a maximum of $2,000 by an individual—crucial to the survival of politicians. That favors PACs and business groups, which can act as 'bundlers' of individual contributions by gathering like-minded people from around the country to give the maximum amount permitted to many different campaigns. Well-connected lobbyists and trade associations with large Rolodexes will be among the best equipped to capitalize on the new law, which places a premium on the ability to raise tens, if not hundreds, of $1,000 to $2,000 donations."
The Ugly Truth About the ADL revealed the role of the ADL, the Milken swindlers cabal, and AIPAC, in the creation of scores of political action committees, which were, in fact, one single entity, operating in violation of the Federal elections laws that placed a $5,000 ceiling on PAC contributions to an individual candidate. While some of the factual data may now be out of date, The Ugly Truth... provided a road map to the ADL-AIPAC illegal PAC operations that is as accurate today as it was a decade ago, when the book was published.
Given the role of Senator McCain in the blackmail operations against President George W. Bush, and given McCain's pivotal role in deepening the hooks that organized crime will have, after November 2002, into the Washington political arena, we reprint below, the text of the ninth chapter of The Ugly Truth About the ADL.
Since the fall of Nixon, the American political lexicon has been blessed with such Watergate offspring as "Debategate," "Cartergate," "Irangate," "Bushgate," and "Iraqgate." Political corruption scandals have become as American as apple pie.
Yet despite this growing addiction to political sleaze, the vast majority of Americans are totally oblivious to the fact that on any given day, the ADL and its fellow hooligans in what is euphemistically dubbed the "Zionist lobby" (the "Dope lobby" is a far more appropriate description) commit crimes against the American electorate that make Watergate seem tame by comparison. Blackmail, extortion, and bribery are such routine tactics of the Zionist lobby that its primary target-victims, the United States Senate and House of Representatives, have been turned into political mush, incapable of governing under the best of circumstances, and completely paralyzed in the face of the current political and economic crises.
While the media had led the charge against Congressional incumbents, appealing to a justified "throw the bums out" sentiment building among the majority of voters, the sad reality is that unless the power of the Zionist lobby is cut down to size, any newly elected Congress will be like lambs walking to the slaughter, and nothing will change.
Officially, both the ADL and its leading collaborator in this corrupting of the Congress, the American-Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), are forbidden from engaging in political campaigning due to their tax-exempt status. Both groups have managed to systematically break the electoral and tax laws with impunity—largely due to the fact that they have placed fellow travelers in key posts in the Executive Branch regulatory agencies that are supposed to monitor the activities of groups benefiting from the tax exemptions: the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
According to the court papers, AIPAC secretly controls at least 27 different political action committees (PACs) (other investigators place the figure at 59), and uses them to funnel enormous amounts of money to candidates for Congress who support AIPAC's political agenda. Under the FEC statutes, strict limits are imposed on how much money can be given to an individual candidate by a single PAC. The purpose of the regulation is to curb the power of special interest groups in the financing of candidates. By running dozens of PACs, AIPAC, according to the suit, illegally circumvents the law.
The case of the Joint Action Committee for Political Affairs (JACPAC), one of the 27 PACs named in the suit, underscores the tight relationship among AIPAC, the ADL, and the political committees. JACPAC lists among its directors the wives of Thomas Dine and Stuart Eizenstat. Since 1980, Dine has been the executive director of AIPAC. Eizenstat, formerly domestic policy adviser to President Jimmy Carter, is the head of the National Jewish Democratic Council (NJDC), an ADL-dominated organization dedicated to winning control over the Democratic Party and placing as many of its members as possible on the staffs of Congressmen, governors, and mayors.
And where does all of the money come from to buy up the hundreds of Congressional seats currently owned by ADL-AIPAC?
A brief look at the Roundtable PAC, one of the 27 outfits cited in the lawsuit as AIPAC-owned, answers that question. Roundtable PAC was founded in 1981 by a group of leading ADL and AIPAC officials and contributors, led by Malcolm Hohlein, the head of the Jewish Community Relations Council of New York. From day one, it was housed in the Manhattan offices of a tax shelter firm called Integrated Resources. Integrated was a thinly veiled money conduit for Michael Milken and his crew of junk bond peddlers and dope money washers at Drexel Burnham. In fact, Drexel CEO Stephen Weinroth, the liaison between Milken and Ivan Boesky in their insider trading scams, was a director of Integrated. All of Milken's prime "investors" socked their money into Integrated as a tax dodge. All of them also poured contributions into the Roundtable PAC.
Among the biggest donors to Roundtable: Ivan Boesky, Robert Davidow (Milken's personal aide at the Beverly Hills office of Drexel), and the sons and daughters of Meshulam Riklis, Laurence Tisch, Saul Steinberg, and Paul Milstein (of Carl Lindner's United Brands).
When the Roundtable PAC holds its meetings, guests of honor include, respectively, New York and Minnesota Attorneys General Robert Abrams and "Skip" Humphrey, and N.Y. Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan. All are regular recipients of AIPAC PAC dollars. In return for such generosity, Senator Moynihan in 1986 shepherded a tax code revision through the U.S. Congress that gave Integrated Resources an added $43 million in tax breaks. With friends like Moynihan in key posts in the U.S. Senate, Integrated could afford to be generous—at least for a while.
The relationship between Milken and Integrated was so tight that within three months of Milken's indictment in March 1989 for insider trading, Integrated defaulted on $1 billion in short-term loans. It seems that without the running pipeline of hot money from Milken's bottomless Caribbean cash pool, Integrated was lost.
The AIPAC-ADL-run political action committees, in short, represent the combined financial clout of the Lansky dope syndicate! Any similarity between ADL-AIPAC and the genuine national interests of the state of Israel or the Jewish people is purely coincidental.
All told, 211 candidates for the U.S. House and Senate from 48 states received money from the ADL-AIPAC PACs between Jan. 1, 1991 and March 31, 1992. Of the 211 recipients, 187 were incumbents. The total amount given in that 15-month period was well over $2 million, making ADL-AIPAC the second largest source of institutional money to candidates for Federal office, second only to the combined donations of all of the labor union PACs. By October 1992, that figure had soared past the $3 million mark.
The ADL-AIPAC PACs don't funnel the majority of their money into Jewish candidates, or even into candidates running for office in states where there are large Jewish populations. More typical of the kinds of officeholders and candidates who receive AIPAC payoffs is Richard C. Shelby, a first-term Democratic U.S. Senator from Alabama who has recently gained notoriety for pushing a death penalty bill for the District of Columbia. Shelby received $67,800 from the AIPAC PACs in the 15 months beginning in January 1991, with a career total of $133,825.
Another record-setting recipient of AIPAC largess is Sen. Tom Harkin, the Iowa Democrat who ran an unsuccessful bid for the Democratic Presidential nomination in 1992. Harkin came into the Senate in 1984 by defeating incumbent Roger Jepsen, who in 1981 had cast a decisive vote against AIPAC in a fight over the sale of AWACS surveillance aircraft to Saudi Arabia. In his first Senate bid, Harkin received over $100,000 from the AIPAC combine. His career total in AIPAC money is a staggering $366,130!
A total of 29 current incumbent Senators and Congressmen have received over $100,000 in illegal contributions from the ADL-AIPAC PACs. A dozen have received $50,000 or more just for their 1992 re-election campaigns.
That "dirty dozen" are: Richard Shelby (D-Ala.), Mel Levine (D-Calif.), Timothy Wirth (D-Colo.), Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii), Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.), Christopher Bond (R-Mo.), Kent Conrad (D-N.D.), Robert Packwood (R-Ore.), Arlen Specter (R-Pa.), Harris Wofford (D-Pa.), Thomas Daschle (D-S.D.), and Robert Kasten (R-Wisc.).
When Richard Nixon got caught running such a "plumbers unit" at the offices of the Committee to Re-Elect the President (CREEP) in 1972, the American people demanded his scalp. It remains to be seen what the reaction will be now that AIPAC has had its first damaging defection—from its own "plumbers unit."
Gregory Slabodkin worked for a number of years in AIPAC's Policy Analysis unit. Slabodkin eventually got turned off by some of the dirty deeds he was ordered to carry out by the unit's chief, Michael Lewis, and he quit his job and went public with his story. Not surprisingly, Michael Lewis is the son of Dr. Bernard Lewis, the Oxford-trained Arabist who was the architect of the Carter administration's "Arc of Crisis" policy which abetted Ayatollah Khomeini's Islamic Revolution in Iran and the spread of fundamentalism throughout the region.
Policy Analysis, the super-euphemistic name given to AIPAC's "plumbers," maintains dossiers on thousands of American activists—many of them Jewish! University professors who criticize AIPAC or ADL's activities are placed on a blacklist. Their lectures are monitored by spies, who occasionally stage noisy disruptions. Their homes and cars are vandalized. University alumni linked to ADL and AIPAC threaten to pull financial backing from the schools unless the targetted faculty members are immediately fired or blocked from tenure.
Members of Congress are cast as either friends or targets of the ADL-AIPAC syndicate. If they are on the friendlies list, they may be the recipients of weekly computerized blackmail dossiers on some of their colleagues and other policy shapers, which are called "Activities." The "Activities" dossiers are sent out in plain white envelopes bearing no organizational emblems. Deniability is a priority, and the whole filthy blackmail and extortion program was 100% deniable—until Slabodkin's defection, complete with reams of AIPAC documents.
AIPAC's unit maintains a singularly close link to the ADL's parallel Fact Finding department, which engages in the exact same kind of activity. In fact, shortly after Thomas Dine took over as executive director of AIPAC, he hired Amy Goott as the first full-time staffer of the Policy Analysis unit. Goott had worked for years at the ADL; her shift of address was apparently blessed by her bosses at the League, and she continued for a period of time to work for both agencies, thereby assuring near-total integration at the covert operations level.
One feature of the job that ultimately got under Gregory Slabodkin's skin was the fact that many of his targets were themselves prominent Jewish activists, usually affiliated with left-wing causes in both the United States and Israel. Many were outspoken critics of the Israeli Likud government's brutality toward the Palestinians living in the occupied territories. Many simply favored a peaceful and equitable solution to the Arab-Israeli conflict. Many of these Jewish activists were treated to the same violence and vicious smearing by ADL-AIPAC that was meted out to Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) officials!
This "McCarthyite" targeting of prominent Jews who simply bucked the ADL or AIPAC on some policy issue or financial deal underscores the fact that the League and AIPAC are anything but a Jewish "defense organization."
McCain Bill Deepens Organized Crime's Lock on Parties

Washington Post Spills the Beans
The con-job behind McCain's "campaign finance reform" has now become so transparent that the Washington Post, on Aug. 18, 2002, finally decided to spill the beans.Under the headline, "PAC Attack II: Why Some Groups Are Learning To Love Campaign Finance Reform," Thomas B. Edsall and Juliet Eilperin wrote, "Instead of reducing the power wielded by special interest groups in American elections, the McCain-Feingold reform bill is magnifying that power and making PACs, the bêtes noires of Common Cause and other good government groups, key players in campaign financing once again."

The (Jewish) Mother of All PACs
In 1992, Lyndon LaRouche commissioned a book-length profile of the links between the Meyer Lansky-founded National Crime Syndicate and the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai Brith. The book, The Ugly Truth About the ADL, became an underground bestseller, with over 250,000 copies placed in circulation in the first year of its release. Within days of the release of the book, in January 1993, a scandal erupted in San Francisco, where the ADL was caught in a criminal espionage operation, targetted against civil rights, labor, Arab-American, and political activists—including several West Coast political associates of LaRouche. The ADL dirty tricks operations included attacks on a number of elected public officials, including former Congressman Pete McCloskey (R-Calif.), a leading spokesman for the rights of Arab-Americans and for Palestinians living under Israeli occupation. McCloskey filed a lawsuit against the ADL, and after nearly a decade of litigation, won a substantial out-of-court settlement for his clients, all victims of the ADL spy games.The Ugly Truth About the ADL revealed the role of the ADL, the Milken swindlers cabal, and AIPAC, in the creation of scores of political action committees, which were, in fact, one single entity, operating in violation of the Federal elections laws that placed a $5,000 ceiling on PAC contributions to an individual candidate.

Bush, and given McCain's pivotal role in deepening the hooks that organized crime will have, after November 2002, into the Washington political arena, we reprint below, the text of the ninth chapter of The Ugly Truth About the ADL.
The Best Government Dope Money Can Buy
In 1974, Richard Nixon went down for the count as the result of the botched Watergate break-in at the Democratic National Committee's headquarters in Washington, D.C. during the 1972 Presidential campaign. As reporters, Congressional committees and special prosecutors pored over the details of the Watergate scandal, evidence of a pattern of bribery and coverups emerged that ended up contributing to Nixon's resignation even more than the break-in itself.Since the fall of Nixon, the American political lexicon has been blessed with such Watergate offspring as "Debategate," "Cartergate," "Irangate," "Bushgate," and "Iraqgate." Political corruption scandals have become as American as apple pie.
Yet despite this growing addiction to political sleaze, the vast majority of Americans are totally oblivious to the fact that on any given day, the ADL and its fellow hooligans in what is euphemistically dubbed the "Zionist lobby" (the "Dope lobby" is a far more appropriate description) commit crimes against the American electorate that make Watergate seem tame by comparison.

Spreading Narco-Dollars
A glimpse at how the Zionist lobby has used the power of the narco-dollar to corrupt and control the Congress is contained in a lawsuit filed in Federal court in Washington, D.C. on Aug. 10, 1992. The suit, filed by a group of retired U.S. diplomats against the FEC, charges that the agency failed to impose sanctions against AIPAC for functioning as an unregistered political action committee. Even though the General Counsel at the FEC agreed that AIPAC had violated the law, the Commissioners decided in July 1992 not to take any action against the group.According to the court papers, AIPAC secretly controls at least 27 different political action committees (PACs) (other investigators place the figure at 59), and uses them to funnel enormous amounts of money to candidates for Congress who support AIPAC's political agenda. Under the FEC statutes, strict limits are imposed on how much money can be given to an individual candidate by a single PAC. The purpose of the regulation is to curb the power of special interest groups in the financing of candidates. By running dozens of PACs, AIPAC, according to the suit, illegally circumvents the law.

Plumbers Unit
Narco-dollars are the key to the ADL's hold over the U.S. Congress, but the League and its AIPAC associates have other trump cards as well. Both groups operate secret, highly illegal spy units that gather blackmail material and carry out dirty tricks against political opponents.When Richard Nixon got caught running such a "plumbers unit" at the offices of the Committee to Re-Elect the President (CREEP) in 1972, the American people demanded his scalp. It remains to be seen what the reaction will be now that AIPAC has had its first damaging defection—from its own "plumbers unit."

Members of Congress are cast as either friends or targets of the ADL-AIPAC syndicate. If they are on the friendlies list, they may be the recipients of weekly computerized blackmail dossiers on some of their colleagues and other policy shapers, which are called "Activities." The "Activities" dossiers are sent out in plain white envelopes bearing no organizational emblems.

Many of these Jewish activists were treated to the same violence and vicious smearing by ADL-AIPAC that was meted out to Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) officials!
This "McCarthyite" targeting of prominent Jews who simply bucked the ADL or AIPAC on some policy issue or financial deal underscores the fact that the League and AIPAC are anything but a Jewish "defense organization."
Lawyer: FBI Trained Hal Turner As An "Agent Provocateur"
http://www.courant.com/news/politics/hc-web-hal-turner-0819aug19,0,1700724.story
HARTFORD — - Internet blogger Harold "Hal" Turner's attorney said today that Turner's background as an FBI informant will be a key part of his defense to charges that he incited violence against two state legislators and a state ethics official.
Superior Court Judge David P. Gold on Tuesday authorized Michael A. Orozco, a New Jersey attorney, to represent Turner. Turner did not appear again in court Tuesday because he remains in federal custody without bail in Chicago, where he is accused of threatening three federal judges.
In asking Gold to allow Orozco to represent Turner, Turner's Connecticut lawyer, Matthew R. Potter, said Orozco has a long-term legal relationship with Turner, plans to bring a complicated First Amendment defense and is familiar with Turner's background as an FBI informant.
That role as an informant for the FBI is a key part of the defense, Orozco said outside court.
Orozco said Turner was trained by the FBI as "an agent provocateur."
"Mr. Turner was trained by the FBI," Orozco said. "He was told where the line was — what he could say."

Hu Jintao Acknowledges Party Has Lost Control of the Internet, Launches Full-Scale Effort to Regain Control
Boxun reports that last week, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Hubei, Sichuan, Guangdong and other provinces and municipalities simultaneously convened provincial news work meetings. The meetings were personally chaired by provincial Communist Party secretaries, transmitted new instructions regarding media control by the Communist Party Central Committee. These were decided at a Central Committee meeting in Beijing that generated the most detailed and significant media guidelines of any meeting of the past several years. The meeting primarily focused on new media and the Party's determination to increase its control over the Internet.
Hu Jintao said at the meeting: If one analyzes recent events, it is clear that we have lost control over the Internet. We have not paid close enough attention to the important role that the Internet plays in shaping public opinion. Recent events have gotten out of control because cadres have not paid sufficient attention to or sufficiently controlled the Internet. This is how mistakes have been made. From now on, from top to bottom we must seek "a productive means of managing the Internet."
Roy Moore's Law Firm
I saw a fair question from a commenter named siusaidh at Salon.com.
http://letters.salon.com/news/feature/2009/08/13/orly_taitz/permalink/b6cd6568b5c629f7d26a452bbca02f7a.html
How did she get her papers to appear before the US Supreme Court? (It has been said that the person who got these for her is connected with Roy Moore (the infamous Ten Commandments judge). What is the connection there?)
There is no connection between Orly Taitz and Roy Moore's Law Firm other than the recommendation given to her. I was the one that contacted the law firm for help. Despite what we now see of Orly Taitz, that was not apparent back in the Fall '08. Her principle client was Ambassador Alan Keyes. She is a licensed attorney despite the questions we have now, those questions weren't apparent then. And despite the fact that there isn't hard evidence of everything Orly says, there is enough to give the claims questions. Let's also not forget, Orly is not the one that came up with most of these claims. She is not the one that did much of the research for these claims. They were copied to Orly because we all actually thought there were resources being put in place to look into this information further, through the donations. Instead, they all got published and filed in raw condition.
That is how propaganda works. Enough truth for people without resources to find on their own, then enough mystery and questions where the average person doesn't have the resources or means to trace the rest.
Ever wonder if maybe that is why Orly is getting all the coverage? Get her out in the media, make her the megaphone for all these statements, discredit her, then when she falls from light, she takes all the unanswered questions with her? We will never know the answers.

The Illuminati Agenda For The Coming New Order The PROMIS Of DAYLIGHT And The ORACLE 8i

The Illuminati Agenda For The Coming New Order The PROMIS Of DAYLIGHT And The ORACLE 8i
Increasingly, it would seem that American society is spiraling into chaos. Financial malfeasance in Government and Big Business has placed millions of Americans into homeless shelters and unemployment lines. In many locales, the housing bubble has burst as values plummet. To many, the news of the “pending” Pandemic of Influenza is just another hinge on the doorway leading to helplessness and hopelessness.
NOVARTIS PHARMA, BASEL SWITZERLAND CONTROLS THE SOFTWARE
Fellow researcher Don Nicoloff has helped immensely in assembling the paper trail of this Artificial Intelligence software called DAYLIGHT and ORACLE8i and in detailing how it is being used to create the ULTIMATE UTOPIA OF THE ILLUMINATED ONES on planet earth. Not surprisingly, since the world of the Global Elite is really quite small and inter-connected, other, seemingly unconnected world news stories find their way into this massive web of deception.
This trail leads us to a “Dr. Orly Taitz” and her husband, Yosef. As Nicoloff declares: “Taitz, a practicing dentist, attorney, and licensed real estate agent who lives in Southern California’s posh, coastline community, Mission Viejo, has filed numerous lawsuits and legal motions on behalf of former U.S. Senate candidate Alan Keyes (and others) demanding proof of Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.’s (aka Barry Soetoro, et al) citizenship eligibility to serve as president of the United States. Taitz recently published ‘proof’ that she had standing to practice law before the U.S. Supreme Court and claims to have “met personally” with Chief Justice John Roberts.”
Nicoloff then writes: “Yosef Taitz, the self-described “CEO” of Daylight Chemical Information Systems, Inc., a private software company located in Mission Viejo, CA, Santa Fe, NM, and Cambridge, England. DCIS, Inc. is intimately involved with Novartis Pharmaceuticals (United States, Switzerland, Germany, France, England), the patent holder of the bird/swine flu vaccination. The “DayCart” software produced by DCIS, Inc. integrates ongoing research and development by Novartis and others using proprietary Oracle 8i technologies.”
What Nicoloff fails to mention, however, is the fact that Novartis’ patent specifically details that the viral pathogen which the patented vaccine is designed to protect against is a “reverse engineered” designer virus that could only have been created in the labs of Ft. Detrick utilizing ORACLE 8i equipped computers. This is EXACTLY what Michael Riconosciuto testified about years earlier concerning the Biological Warfare capabilities of ORACLE 8i software.
According to the China-based MANUFACTURING ARM of Novartis’ International, the Chemical Information Network or ChIN (anagram for “ChINa”) we read the following world-wide press release:
DAYLIGHT CIS announces DayCart

Mission Viejo, Calif. USA – July 14, 2000 — DAYLIGHT Chemical Information Systems, Inc. (USA) today introduces a new addition to the array of DAYLIGHT software products; DayCart(tm), an application using the unique extensibility features of Oracle8i(tm) designed to fully integrate the molecular structures and reactions in an Oracle8i database server environment. As an integrated module DayCart does not require any call-outs or other operations outside of the Oracle server, in order to perform its functions. DayCart delivers the speed, capacity and performance of Daylight tools throughout the organization. Use of DayCart with the Oracle8i server, unlocks the access of existing Oracle* applications and tools (such as SQL, PL/SQL, Java, C, etc.) to the array of chemical information.
“DayCart was developed in close collaboration with Novartis’ scientists and the architects of Oracle8i’s extensibility framework. Thus, DayCart provides a practical and exceptionally efficient solution fully compliant with Oracle technology.
Today DayCart delivers an extensive range of chemical information capabilities, such as fast direct storage and retrieval of 2D and 3D, structures, reactions and mixtures. Operations provided include high performance searching of full structure, sub-structure, super-structure, similarity and other structural operations. Our utilization of Unique SMILES and its indexing, delivers unparalleled speed and flexibility in storing, novelty checking and searching operations,” stated Yosef Taitz, Chief Executive Officer of DAYLIGHT.
“Utilizing the DayCart technology today, we deliver a corporate compound registration system handling archival, searching and retrieval of over 9 million compounds with lightning speed. A wide range of DayCart solutions are being produced, both by Daylight and by its development partners. We are providing a migration path for conversion and integration of existing data. Daylight chemical technology, tightly integrated with the Oracle8i database opens the door to groundbreaking ‘informatics’ solutions. This technology empowers users to bridge and expand the horizons of chemical information science, merge biological and chemical data, and provide solutions for data warehousing, compound acquisition, and more.”
“The Oracle database is unique in its ability to singularly store, manage and secure relational data, files and unstructured data,” said Jeremy Burton, senior vice president of iPlatform marketing, Oracle Corp. “By extending these data management capabilities, as DAYLIGHT Chemical Information Systems has with DayCart, technology continues to drive significant business and scientific advances. We are pleased to be a fundamental part of these advances.”
“The Daylight Cartridge combines strong performance with interesting versatility through Daylight’s typical toolkit approach. It enables Pharma R&D IT functions to adapt their systems flexibly to the new challenges in the business and scientific environments.” Said Dr. Rene Ziegler the Head of Pharma Research Information Management at Novartis.
DAYLIGHT Chemical Information Systems, incorporated in 1987, is a privately held company headquartered in Mission Viejo, CA, with a research office in Santa Fe, NM and in Cambridge England. DAYLIGHT is a technology leader who provides high-performance chemical information processing tools (such as SMILES and Daylight ToolKit(tm)) for research chemists around the globe. Its software and tools are used by thousands of scientists at over 250 companies worldwide.

There it is. This engineered pandemic is a heinous crime against humanity. I submit that this paper, combined with the others I have authored, fulfills the legal requirements of a criminal prosecution of suspected murderers. I have established motive (windfall profits), opportunity, and finally, the means and methods employed to commit this crime.
The only question remaining is:

Overland Park Man Sentenced for Anthrax Threat
KANSAS CITY, KS—John Philip Barker, 47, Overland Park, Kan., has been sentenced to a year and a day in federal prison for sending a white powder through the U.S. mails that he claimed was anthrax, U.S. Attorney Lanny Welch said today. After his imprisonment he will serve two years on supervised release.
In May, 2009, Barker pleaded guilty to one count of mailing a threatening communication. In his plea, Barker admitted that on June 21, 2008, he used the U.S. mail to send a threatening communication to the Internal Revenue Service in Austin, Texas. The letter, which was opened at the Internal Revenue Processing Center in Austin, contained the following statement (with misspelling): “YOU HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO ANTRAX DIE!” The Austin Fire Department HAZMAT team retrieved the letter and took it to the Laboratory Response Network lab for analysis. The lab found no evidence of bacillus anthracis.
Investigators retraced the letter’s path to an Automated Postal Center in Shawnee, Kan., where Barker had used a credit card to purchase the postage. They arrested Barker, who said the envelope contained baby powder.

Aloha! Help Hawaii Get Legislation Passed
Human and Sex Trafficking affects us all.
Did you know?
Hawaii is one of 4 states to issue driver's licenses to illegal aliens.
Hawaii has one of the largest populations of documented illegal aliens and has been under investigation from ICE.gov since 2004. Documented through ID Theft, recycled SS# from the dead, made up identities and more. Investigation is still ongoing.
Hawaii has received an F in combating international
Help Combat Sex-Trafficking in Hawaii. Mahalo!:
The rise in Human Trafficking among international and domestic trafficked persons is increasing in Hawaii, adversely affecting the image of the state and therefore tourism and the economy. Hawaii remains 1 of 12 states in the nation that has not passed legislation making Human Trafficking a felony offense while protecting the victims of this crime.
According to the FBI Innocence Lost Initiative for Operation Cross Country II, Honolulu is 1 of 29 cities recognized as a place with a considerable amount of child sex-trafficking in addition to adult Human Trafficking.
Existing Hawaii laws are ineffective to deter Human Trafficking and protecting victims. Effective deterrents require bringing traffickers, and patrons who solicit services from trafficked persons, to justice. Additionally, current prostitution statutes place both patrons of prostitution and prostituted persons into the same criminal category.
Victims often find it difficult or impossible to report the crimes committed against them or to assist in the investigation and prosecution of these crimes because they are subjected to coercion and intimidation, including physical or psychological control, persecution, debt bondage, and fear of retribution.
The lack of legal definition in our Hawaii statutes creates a deficit of adequate services and facilities in Hawaii to meet the needs of trafficking victims in terms of health care, housing, education, medical services, and legal assistance-- services which safely support the recovery and ability of trafficked persons to regain control of their lives and also to assist with the prosecution of traffickers.
In order to deter Human Trafficking, Hawaii must recognize that Human Trafficking is a serious offense. This can be simply accomplished by prescribing appropriate punishment, giving priority to the prosecution of trafficking offenses, and protecting, rather than punishing, the victims of these offenses.

Pakistan Nuclear Facilities Attacked Three Times by Terrorists
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/news/world/pakistan/Jihadis-thrice-attacked-Pakistan-nuclear-sites/articleshow/4879235.cms
Excerpt:
Pakistan's nuclear facilities have already been attacked at least thrice by its home-grown extremists and terrorists in little reported incidents over the last two years, even as the world remains divided over the safety and security of the nuclear weapons in the troubled country, according to western analysts.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
“Atomic weapons will be like traditional ones, possessed by every state according to its potential. We
will have our share of this new weapon.” - Muammar Gadhafi, 1976
US State Department cable: `We have strong reason to believe that Pakistan is seeking to develop a nuclear explosives capability * * * Pakistan is conducting a program for the design and development of a triggering package for nuclear explosive devices.' - Pakistan 1981
Chinese assistance in the development of gas centrifuges at Kahuta (Pakistan's special weapons facility) was indicated by the presence of Chinese technicians at the facility in the early 1980s. The uranium enrichment facility began operating in the early 1980s - Pakistan
In 1981 BCCI bank sets up a charity called the BCCI Foundation. Pakistani Finance Minister Ghulam Ishaq Khan grants it tax-free status, and it supposedly spends millions on charitable purposes. - Money was funneled to Kahuta Special Weapons Facility, for Islamic Bomb.
