JUNE 2004: The law enforcement publication POLICE MAGAZINE published an article in their May-June 2004 issue which I found more disturbing than any terrorist attack or threat to American citizens. The 5th United States Circuit Court has ruled that law enforcement officers are not required to obtain a search warrant prior to investigating a business or residence.. As of now, only the states of Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi fall under the New Orleans United States Circuit Court ruling. According to the article, prior to March 24, 2004, protective sweeps ( as they are called ) were deemed legal if only the search was done with intent to arrest a suspect. This new decision was handed down in accord concerning the 1994 case of United States vs. Kelly Gould. This incident is another example of more intrusion on the American citizens rights to privacy, and the threat of a citizens safety while residing in their own home. When law enforcement officers come crashing through your front door, guns are drawn and the prospect of innocent people being shot will increase ten fold. I myself have seen the mentality of certain law enforcement officers in the Oklahoma City Court House. In the court house's sheriff office, I noticed a flyer on the bulletin board which read, BE PREPARED TO SHOOT SOMEONE TODAY. I was appalled at this type of bulletin board advertisement that promotes homicide. I asked the officer on duty why such unethical and dangerous propaganda is posted on their bulletin board. The officer's justification of this was the numerous incidents where police officers were shot while on duty. I responded with, that's sad that people who are paid to protect us are killed in the line of duty. I then asked this officer where is the poster that shows the numerous innocent citizens that were killed by law enforcement agents? The officer had no reply to that inquiry. One final note is that I informed this officer that more law enforcement agents died by suicide than being killed in the line of duty the previous year.
The majority of the American population are not even aware of these laws that attack their freedoms. It took only 45 days after the September 11 attacks, with virtually no debate, Congress passed the THE PATRIOT ACT. Many parts of this sweeping legislation take away checks on law enforcement and threaten the very rights and freedoms that we are struggling to protect. For example, without a warrant and without probable cause, the FBI now has the power to access your most private medical records, your library records, and your student records, and can prevent anyone from telling you it was done. JaysNet already reported that The Department of Justice is expected to introduce a sequel, dubbed PATRIOT ACT II, that would further erode key freedoms and liberties of every American. I advise you to contact your Senator and protest the acceleration of these new laws which are ludicrous, and nothing more than a excuse for Big Brother to advance his goals of world monitoring, and hiding behind the guise that these laws are designed to fight terrorists. Congress must first re-examine provisions of the first PATRIOT Act to ensure that is in alignment with key constitutional protections. The abuse of these laws are growing and they must be stopped now before it's to late.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation documents turned over to the American Civil Liberties Union and other civil liberties organizations under court order reveal that the FBI invoked a controversial provision of the Patriot Act only weeks after Attorney General John Ashcroft publicly declared that this power had never been used. Among the records released is an FBI memorandum, dated October 15, 2003, indicating that the FBI submitted an application for an order under Section 215 of the Patriot Act less than a month after the Attorney General made his announcement. The records disclosed to the ACLU do not indicate how many times the FBI has invoked Section 215 since October 2003.
"From the latest documents we’ve received from the government, it appears that Attorney General Ashcroft released records when it suited his political purposes and then attempted to withhold them when it didn’t," said Jameel Jaffer, an ACLU Staff Attorney. "The records we’ve obtained suggest once again that the government’s secrecy decisions are guided not by national security concerns but by political ones." The records about the government’s use of the Patriot Act were obtained through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request filed in October 2003 on behalf of the ACLU, the Electronic Privacy Information Center, the American Booksellers Foundation for Free Expression and the Freedom to Read Foundation. Even after the requesters filed legal action in December 2003, the FBI attempted to stonewall the request for information, stating that the records could not be produced before June 2005. The United States District Court for the District of Columbia ultimately overturned the FBI’s decision to withhold the documents until 2005 and ordered the FBI to release the documents over a period of six weeks. This week’s release was the first of two expected; a further release is expected in early July.
"A veil of secrecy has shrouded the Patriot Act for two and a half years. The fragments of information that we have managed to pry out of the Justice Department raise serious questions and provide few answers," said David Sobel, General Counsel for the Electronic Privacy Information Center. "It is time for an open public debate on this controversial law." Among the other documents released by the FBI is an e-mail that acknowledges that Section 215 can be used to obtain physical objects, in addition to records. It states that the FBI could use Section 215 to obtain a person's apartment key. The Attorney General has previously acknowledged that Section 215 can be used to obtain computer files and even genetic information. Another document released by the FBI is an internal FBI memo, dated October 29, 2003, acknowledging that Section 215 of the Patriot Act can be used to obtain information about innocent people. The memo contradicts the governments assertion, made repeatedly on the public record, that Section 215 can be used only against suspected terrorists and spies. "It is remarkable that the government never made any effort to inform the plaintiffs or even the Court that it has begun using Section 215," said Ann Beeson, Associate Legal Director of the ACLU. Below are a few examples of The Patriot Act :
Sec. 215. Access to records and other items under
the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.
Sec. 326. Verification of identification.
Sec. 351. Amendments relating to reporting of
suspicious activities.
Sec. 405. Report on the integrated automated
fingerprint identification system for ports of entry and overseas consular
posts.
Subtitle Enhanced Immigration Provisions
Sec. 416. Foreign student monitoring program.
Sec. 503. DNA identification of terrorists and
other violent offenders.
Sec. 507. Disclosure of educational records.
The key to these law definitions is that their is no key. It's wording and it's meaning can be interrupted in numerous fashions. One example is what and whom are terrorists? What defines a terrorist ? One example, according to The Bush administration, is a hacker is defined as a terrorist. My conclusion is this type of government agenda reminds me of the Nazi mentality in the 1930s where the Nazi Party encouraged it's citizens to report suspicious activities being committed by their neighbors, their family, or fellow workers. The outcome led to the banning of all commerce and rights of the jewish citizen, which led to Hitler's final solution to the jewish problem where over six million jewish citizens were murdered in the concentration camps. The similarities of The Patriot Act and The Third Reich are frightening due to the similar doctrine concerning the way both ideologies were born and then made into law.U.S. Navy Admiral John Hutson was quoted, "How can we fight to uphold the rule of law if we break the rules ourselves?"
To say the Bush Administration has demonstrated that it is unwilling and unable to investigate itself, is a understatement. But this has been the policy of those drunk with power since the ending of War World II. Being part of the executive branch gives those in power the abilities to abuse the law and then try to justify their actions with such gibberish as " threats to national security " and numerous other clichés' to cover up their immoral and unethical political agendas. The American Civil Liberties Union called on President Bush and other top government officials to appoint an independent commission to review the mistreatment of detainees at Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay. "Only an independent investigation, removed from political obligations, can help assure the world that the Presidents apology for the Abu Ghraib abuses was a sincere expression of regret for appalling conduct, and not a calculated efforts at damage control for appalling images." said Laura W. Murphy, Director of the ACLU Washington Legislative Office. In letters addressed to President George Bush and Attorney General John Ashcroft, the ACLU called for the establishment of an independent commission to review current policies, including the Geneva Conventions and their application on detainees, to examine the extent of abuse, mistreatment and torture, and to recommend reforms. The commission would investigate all prisoners held by any government agency, military branch or private contractor. The letters also called for the appointment of a special counsel to determine the extent of criminal wrongdoing, including violations of federal law prohibiting torture and breaches of the Geneva Conventions, in the mistreatment of prisoners at Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo Bay, and elsewhere.
The ACLU pointed to memoranda drafted by top Administration officials that provided justification for disregarding the Geneva Conventions and for using extraordinary interrogation practices, adopting what the memoranda acknowledge was a controversial, and highly restrictive, definition of torture and outlining possible defenses from criminal prosecution. The memoranda also take the extraordinary position that the President, as Commander in Chief, has the authority to disregard the commands of federal criminal laws prohibiting torture if necessary to obtain information from enemy prisoners. At a Senate Oversight hearing, Attorney General Ashcroft repeatedly refused to provide information on the memoranda, or provide senators with copies, promoting Senator Joe Biden (D-CT) to quip, "You are not allowed, under our Constitution, not to answer our questions, and that isn't constitutional." The refusal of the Administration to comply with Congressional requests for information, demonstrates the need for an independent review of the abuses scandal. The Center for Constitutional Rights and others have also filed a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit, charging that the Department of Defense and other government agencies illegally withheld records concerning the abuse of detainees in American military custody. The initial FOIA request expressed concern, now validated by the Abu Ghraib photographs, that detainees in U.S. custody were being subjected to abuse and even torture. "Congress has a constitutional mandate to review these policies, and still the Administration stonewalls such efforts," said Timothy Edgar, an ACLU Legislative Counsel. "The public has a right to know what why these abuses were allowed to take place and who was ultimately responsible. The failure to appoint a credible, independent investigator will be perceived as part of an attempt to pin the blame for the scandal on a few privates and sergeants, and shield high level Administration officials from responsibility."
The Domestic Security Enhancement Act (also called “Patriot Act 2”) Further dismantles court review of surveillance, such as by terminating court approved limits on police spying on religious and political activity. It allows the government to obtain credit records and library records secretly and without judicial oversight. Allows wiretaps without a court order for up to 15 days following a terrorist attack Allows government to operate in secret by authorizing secret arrests, and imposing severe restrictions on the release of information about the hazards to the community posed by chemical and other plants. Patriot Act II further expands the reach of an already over broad definition of terrorism so that organizations engaged in civil disobedience are at risk of government wiretapping. These are only a few examples of the increased powers that the new bill would grant to the government. Under our Constitution, government powers are subject to control by the courts, the Congress, and ultimately by the American people, informed by a free press. Checks and balances help ensure both safety and freedom. They ensure that government actions taken for very important purposes, such as to prevent terrorism or other crime, do not violate the rights of ordinary citizens, and that government is held accountable when they do. They also help the government, ensuring that its resources are concentrated on arrests of real criminals, not on ineffective, feel good solutions advanced by political leaders anxious to reassure a frightened public. Patriot Act 2’s laundry list of new powers will not only erode certain fundamental rights of terrorism suspects or other criminal defendants, but also contains powers which could be directed at ordinary people, such as protesters with diverse political viewpoints, members of community, environmental and religious organizations, library users and ordinary immigrants, including legal permanent residents.
When Congress enacted the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), it intended those extraordinary powers to be used against the Mafia and organized crime. Over the years, however, RICO was used far more broadly, even against anti-abortion protesters and other dissidents. JaysNet is deeply concerned that some of the powers the government may be seeking in Patriot Act 2, while ostensibly directed at terrorists, could likewise be used and abused in unexpected ways. Under an existing, over broad definition of international and domestic “terrorism,” any individual or group that breaks the law with the intent of influencing the government can be labeled a terrorist if their activities are “dangerous to human life. Under that definition, diverse “direct action” organizations, including Operation Rescue, the World Trade Organization protesters, and others could conceivably be labeled “terrorist organizations.”
Trials began in June 2004 in federal court concerning three cases on Americans right to protest cases brought by the New York Civil Liberties Union challenging police practices at the February 15, 2003 anti-war demonstration here. The cases are particularly important because they challenge practices that may be used during the protests at the Republican National Convention in August, the NYCLU said. "Hundreds of thousands of people may come to New York to engage in peaceful protest at the Republican National Convention and they are entitled to be treated with the same respect as those attending the convention,” said NYCLU Executive Director Donna Lieberman. “We hope that the city and the police department will learn from their mistakes and we will not have the same problems this August.” A example of these incidents that took place at the FEB 2003 war protest include:BIG BROTHER MOTTO IS SILENCE IS GOLDEN
Ann Stauber, a 60 year old diabetic woman in a wheelchair, who was herded into a holding pen on the street. She was forbidden to leave by the NYPD even after she told them that she urgently needed to find a bathroom and then return home to check her blood sugar. An officer forcibly stopped her when she attempted to leave and, in the process, broke the controls on her wheelchair.
Jeremy Conrad, a 27 year old law student, who was trapped in a barricaded area and then injured when a horse stepped on him. When he complained to NYPD officers that the crowd could not move, he was arrested and maliciously pushed and kicked by officers. Conrad was detained in the back of a police van for about seven and a half hours without food, water or bathroom facilities. The NYPD then forced Conrad and others to stand outside police headquarters for approximately an hour and a half in 14 degree weather before releasing him.
The late Jeremiah Gutman and his family, who were hemmed in by police as they attempted to march to the rally site. Police offered either no information or inaccurate information to the trapped demonstrators. Then, without warning, police on horses drove into the crowd. While trying to protect his young son, the 79 year old Mr. Gutman was knocked to the ground and injured.
In closing, I would like to ad a true story that occurred while a cab driver was transporting me to the Oklahoma City Court House. The cab driver informed me that his cousin, a elderly lady who was visiting from Germany for a family reunion, was being hammered by her american relatives on the subject of American freedom. This elderly german citizen was over overwhelmed by statements from her american relatives, which were mainly on the subject of freedom. The American relatives kept asking this german citizen how great it must feel to be in America, how great it must be to feel free of communist rule, how gratifying it must be to feel complete freedom and to voice opinions against the government under the freedom of speech. After all these statements the elderly german lady paused, then replied to her American relatives. " You Americans are under worse rule and government intrusion than myself and many other germans were during the era of Hitler and the cold war." The relatives were dumbfounded by her direct and truthful response. It took a elderly german women to open the eyes of her American relatives on the realities of current American policies on the issues of privacy and human rights.
YOU DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENTOn June 21,2004 The Supreme Court ruled Monday that people do not have a constitutional right to refuse to tell police their names. The 5-4 decision frees the government to arrest and punish people who won’t cooperate by revealing their identity.
In this installment of JaysNet, I decided to do a quick review of the numerous research articles which I have put online since 1996. I am not a theologian, a preacher, nor a politician. I try to present my research void of sensationalism and put it in a context from a reporter's point of view. I myself do believe in God and the events that have took place since Israel became a nation after World War II have filled my mind with curiosity concerning a One World Government and a global society which will be under the rule of a entity as yet unknown.. The advancements in technology over the last 100 years is a marvel in human endeavor in the fields of technology and science. The main areas of technology which have accelerated rapidly is the area of monitoring, radar, surveillance, and global communications. These advancements in technology are being dubbed as THE INFORMATION AGE . The Global Position Satellites, The Internet, The laws that are being passed which erode human privacy and liberties have amazed me to the point which is more frightening than any terrorist threat.or nuclear attack. Let's take a brief look back and you can determine what direction that humanity is heading towards.JAYSNET 1997 TO 2004

In 1999 almost 60% of all retail purchases, including house and utilities were paid by paper money or personal check. In 2001THE CASH LESS SOCIETY BY 2012
U.P.C. bar codes consist of 2 parts; the symbol made of patterns of black and white bars, and the numbers at the bottom of the symbol. The numbers are encoded in the symbol and carry information about the product. These symbols are scanned by equipment in retail stores and are sometimes used in conjunction with computer systems to track sales and order products.What started as a domestic, single industry mandate to administer the U.P.C. bar codes in 1971, has grown into a membership organization with a global system of commerce used by more than one million companies doing business in more than 140 countries across 23 industries.THE BAR CODE
Another interesting theory is the UPC bar code which contains the numeric numbers 6,6,6 and other numeric values associated with the bar code. Is this "666" the number of a single man? Or will it be the number of "mankind"? Is it literal or figurative? As with above article, this bar code theory of 666 is a interesting theory. We are all familiar with the UPC code. We see the bar code on nearly every product we buy, but many are not aware that the bar code operates on a "666" system. Yes, perhaps not surprisingly, the products we buy contain a "666" on their bar code. First let's look at the construction of the bar code. This means that each bar code contains a 6, 6, 6.. Is the bar code the mark of the beast? No, but the theory of 666 on a bar code which is on almost everything we purchase is quite interesting from a biblical and research point of view. Below is a example of the bar code theory.
---
-------------------------------
In 1932 an ambitious project was conducted by a small group of students headed by Wallace Flint at the Harvard UniversityTHE HISTORY OF THE BAR CODE
The following year he and Silver set out to build
the first actual bar code reader in the living room of Woodlands house
in Binghamton, New York. The device was the size of a desk and had to be
wrapped in black oilcloth to keep out ambient light.
It relied on two key elements: a five hundred
watt incandescent bulb as the light source and an RCA 935 photo multiplier
tube, designed for movie sound systems, as the reader. Woodland hooked
the 935 tube up to an oscilloscope. Then he moved a piece of paper marked
with lines across a thin beam emanating from the light source. The reflected
beam was aimed at the tube. As the paper moved, the signal on the
oscilloscope jumped. He and Silver had created a device that could electronically
read printed material. Bar code was not commercialized until 1966 ( Perhaps
just a fluke, but the year 1966 does contain 666, although the 9 is upside
down.). The National Association of Food Chains (NAFC) put out a call to
equipment manufacturers for systems that would speed the checkout process.
In 1967 RCA installed one of the first scanning systems at a Kroger store
in Cincinnati. The product codes were represented by "bull's eye bar codes",
a set of concentric circular bars and spaces of varying widths. These bar
codes were not preprinted on the item's packaging, but were labels that
were put on the items by Kroger employees. But there was problems with
the RCA and Kroger code. It was recognized that the industry would have
to agree on a standard coding scheme open to all equipment manufacturers
to use and adopted by all food producers and dealers.
In 1969 ( As with the 1966 example, 1969 contains
6,6,6, with two nines being upside down.), the NAFC asked Logicon, Inc.
to develop a proposal for an industry wide bar code system. The result
was Parts 1 and 2 of the Universal Grocery Products Identification Code
(UGPIC) in the summer of 1970. Based on the recommendations of the Logicon
report, the U.S. Supermarket Ad Hoc Committee on a Uniform Grocery Product
Code was formed. Three years later, the Committee recommended the adoption
of the UPC symbol set still used in the USA today. It was submitted by
IBM and developed by George Laurer, whose work was an outgrowth of the
idea of Woodland and Silver. Woodland was an employee at the time of IBM.
In June 1974, one of the first UPC scanner, made by NCR Corp. (which was
then called National Cash Register Co), was installed at Marsh's supermarket
in Troy, Ohio. On June 26, 1974, the first product with a bar code was
scanned at a
check-out counter. It was a 10 pack of Wrigley's
Juicy Fruit chewing gum. The pack of gum wasn't specially designated to
be
the first scanned product. It just happened to
be the first item lifted from the cart by a shopper whose name is long
since lost to
history. Today, the pack of gum is on display
at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American History. The
event that really got bar code into industrial applications occurred September
1, 1981 when the United States Department
of Defense adopted the use of Code 39 for
marking all products sold to the United States military. Meanwhile Computer
Identical prospered. Its system used lasers which in the late 1960s were
just becoming affordable. A milli watt helium neon laser beam could easily
match the job done by Woodland's unwieldy five hundred watt bulb. A thin
stripe moving over a bar code would be absorbed by the black stripes and
reflected by the white ones, giving scanner sensors a clear on/off signal.
Lasers could read bar codes anywhere from three inches to several feet
away, and they could sweep back and forth like a searchlight hundreds of
times a second, giving the reader many looks at a single code from many
different angles. That would prove to be a great help in deciphering scratched
or torn labels.
In the spring of 1969 Computer Identical
quietly installed its first two systems probably the first true bar code
systems anywhere. One went into a General Motors plant in Pontiac, Michigan.
The other went into a distribution facility run by the General Trading
Company in Carlsbad, New Jersey, to help direct shipments to the proper
loading bay doors. Computer Identics's triumph proved the potential for
bar codes in industrial settings. but it was the grocery industry that
would once again provide the impetus to push the technology forward. In
the early 1970s the industry set out to propel to full commercial maturity
the technology that Woodland and Silver had dreamed up and Computer Identics
had proved feasible. Then, in mid 1970, an industry consortium established
an ad hoc committee to look into bar codes. The committee set guidelines
for bad code development and created a symbol selection subcommittee to
help standardize the approach. This would be the grocery industry's Manhattan
Project IBM's facilities in North Carolina, played a prominent role in
developing the most popular and important version of the technology: the
Universal Product Code (UPC). The adoption of the Universal Product Code,
on April 3, 1973, transformed bar codes from a technological curiosity
into a business juggernaut. When the UPC took over, companies were forced
to give up their individual methods and register with a new Uniform Code
Council (UCC).

The code is split into two halves of six
digits each. The first one is always zero, except for products like meat
and
produce that have variable weight, and
a few other special items. The next five are the manufacturers code the
next five
are the product code: and the last is a
check digit used to verify that the preceding digits have been scanned
properly.
Woodland never got rich from bar codes,
though he was awarded the 1992 National Medal of Technology by President
Bush. But all those involved in the early
days speak of the rewards of having brought a new way of doing business
to
the world.
MAY 2004: The United States is planning to build the world's fastest and largest computer, dubbed as THE B.E.A.S.T. The US Energy Department vows to surpass Japan's Earth Simulator Computer, currently the world's largest computer, by building The B.E.A.S.T. Government super computers are crucial to scientific discovery, law enforcement intelligence gathering, monitoring and analysis of gathered data. The Energy Department announced plans to build the world's fastest and largest computer at a research laboratory in Tennessee. The Computer will be labeled as The B.E.A.S.T " Broaden Electronic Analysis Surveillance Technology " The super computer to be built at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory will be funded over the initial two years by federal grants totaling $50 million. Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham was to make the formal announcement in a speech in which he will call development of the world's fastest computer for general science "critical to our nation's competitiveness." The project submitted by Oak Ridge scientists envisions a computer capable of sustaining 50 trillion calculations per second. The Energy Department project will involve Cray Corp., International Business Machines and Silicon Graphics Inc., all private companies that have been deeply involved in high performance computing research.THE COMING OF THE B.E.A.S.T" Broadened Electronic Analysis Surveillance Technology "
The program will attempt to develop a computer that will surpass Japan's Earth Simulator, built by NEC in 2002 and capable of sustaining nearly 36 trillion calculations per second. With the NEC computer in 2002, Japan became the world leader in having the most powerful computer for scientific research, one even faster than computers used at the government nuclear weapons laboratories. "This computer will propel the United States into the global lead in high speed computers aimed at scientific discovery," according to Abraham. Other applications which will be employed by The B.E.A.S.T remain unknown, but it's use in the military and law enforcement community is inevitable. Super fast computers do more than solve complicated sets of equations. They allow for sophisticated simulations that lead to scientific discoveries once only found through lengthy experimentation. For example, super computers are key in the Energy Department's attempt to simulate the forces of a nuclear explosion, replacing actual bomb testing. "We are making this significant investment in America's scientific infrastructure with the expectation that it will yield a wealth of dividends, major research breakthroughs, significant technological innovations, medical and health advances, enhanced economic competitiveness and improved quality of life," Abraham stated. While the Japanese are to be congratulated for their accomplishment, the United States "must make the commitment necessary to regain the clear cut lead" in super computing, he contends. "This is exactly what we are going to do," promised Abraham.
Over 20 years ago a christian science publication announced the existence of a massive computer which was named The Beast, supposedly located in Belgium. This story was later found to be untrue, but even the mention of a world computer which collects data on the human race for the possible purpose of monitoring and marking human beings, was eerily compared to a beast system mentioned in the christian Bible's Book of Revelation.
Other endeavors to improve technology in the areas of communication are also being completed. The U.S. Air Force launched it's new GPS satellite in March 2004 from Cape Canaveral in Florida. The satellite which is manufactured by Lockhead Martin has advanced features such as an upgraded antenna panel for improved power and performance. The launch was the 50th in the United States GPS program. As of May 2004, their are at least 28 of these GPS satellites in orbit, with 10 of them being the new GPS IIR spacecraft design.. Lockheed Martin already has designs for the a more improved GPS satellite which is scheduled for launch in March 2005. The satellite has been named GPS III.
Politicians who want to force everyone to carry a national ID card, and misguided Americans who agree with them, are making a mistake that they will regret long after the terrorist threat subsides, Libertarians say. "Even in a time of turmoil, here are three words that no American should ever hear: 'Your papers, please!' " said Steve Dasbach, national director of the Libertarian Party. The United States House and Senate lawmakers have hinted that they are open to the idea of a mandatory national ID card, perhaps with "biometric identifiers" like a fingerprint, DNA sample, or Iris scan. There's considerable evidence that a national ID card would do nothing to combat terrorism, while giving the government extraordinary new power. One instanceThe National ID Card
Unfortunately, at a time when Americans are vulnerable to terrorists, they're also most vulnerable to politicians who want to pass laws that we'll all regret later. The current United States Attorney General John Ashcroft and his drafting of The Patriot Act is a catastrophic law which erodes not only your privacy, but your life as well. Americans must stand up and say no to a national ID card. It's time to let everyone know that we will never surrender, either to terrorists or to the misguided politicians who insist that Americans need to give up freedom in order to preserve it.
The Big Brother Project "Eye Sky Technology"Anyone who has read The Bible's Book of Revelation will know that in certain verse's the whole world would be able to see The Anti Christ, The Two Witness's who lay dead in the street then rise after three days plus other references pertaining to THE WHOLE WORLD WILL SEE. I have often been puzzled by this passage because not everyone in the world has a computer, television or any communication device, especially in third world countries.
But what if you could manipulate particles in
the atmosphere and make the sky a sort of projection screen? This would
explain the passage. A rainbow is a primitive
example made by nature to illustrate this phenomenon and technology
is in the process of making the atmosphere a
huge reflective device such as you would see in a planetarium. This technology
reminds of the 1960s television show Batman,
in which the bat signal was a projected light image where the sky was illuminated
with a bat in the sky.
New technology is being introduced where atmospheric
particles may be manipulated by satellites ,scanners ,computer
imaging that will turn the earth's atmosphere
into a huge reflective screen code named EYE SKY. The technology could
be used from anything as news breaking events
to propaganda projected in the atmosphere for the whole world to see.
Below is basic information on how a rainbow appears
and you will see how simple this new technology will be created.
--------------------------------------
The colors of the rainbow arise from two basic facts. Sunlight is made up of the whole range of colors that the eye can detect. The range of sunlight colors, when combined, looks white to the eye. This property of sunlight was first demonstrated by Sir Isaac Newton in 1666. Light of different colors is refracted by different amounts when it passes from one medium (air, for example) into another (water or glass, for example ) . William Livingston, a solar astronomer who has also specialized in atmospheric optical phenomena suggests the following: "Try a hose spray yourself. As you produce a fine spray supernumeraries up to order three become nicely visible. Rainbows, sunsets and halos; a spectacular display of colors and visual in the sky called "atmospheric optics". As sunlight (or moonlight) enters the atmosphere, it is either absorbed, reflected, scattered, refracted or diffracted by atmospheric particles or air molecules. These processes, individually or in combination, are responsible for producing most optical effects. This module investigates these particle light interactions and the assortment of optical effects they produce. The Light and Optics module has been organized into the following sections:
1. Mechanisms: Particle and Molecule light interactions responsible for creating optical effects. These interactions include reflection, scattering, refraction and diffraction.
2. Air, Dust, Haze: Optical effects resulting
from the interaction of light with air, dust and haze particles. These
effects include
crepuscular rays, blue skies, blue haze and sunsets.
3. Ice Crystals: Optical effects resulting
from the interaction of light with ice crystals. These effects include
sundogs, sun
pillars and halos.
4. Water Droplets: Optical
effects resulting from the interaction of light with water droplets. These
effects include cloud
iridescence, rainbows and a silver lining
along the edge of clouds.
In the 2001 September Issue of Popular Science companies such as Marinello & Callaway of Arlington Texas were working on the MyLar billboard, which is more than 12 miles in diameter and would use light refection from the sun would light up the sky with any advertisement claiming the whole world would be able to view it.Another company Space Marketing of Roswell,Georgia had a similar plan in the 1990's. Thanks to congress such ads in space were banned,but it would not stop other nations to envoke such eye-in-the-sky billboards.
JULY 2004: In the 1930s Adolph Hitler envisioned a master race of a Aryan civilization, born and grown through selective breeding. All other human beings who were jewish, homosexual, handicapped, and so on were considered inferior and must be exterminated to halt their population growth and the possible infection of Hitler's master race.. The advancement in numerous genetic fields such as Stem Cells, Cloning, DNA, Genes, Gnomes, Biometrics, Test Tube Babies, Nanotechnolgy have developed to the point were the cloning of human beings is a reality. The cloning of animals is now being done on a daily basis and the genetic engineering of crops to produce a larger harvest is commonplace.IN THE END, MAN CREATED GOD
-------------------July 17,2004
What if scientists were to use the DNA samples
of past historic figures such as Adolph Hitler, Albert Einstein, John F.
Kennedy, and impregnate a woman with this genetically engineered embryo
in hopes of producing a human with all the attributes of a super diplomat
or scientist? While many of you feel this is impossible and is something
more adapted from a Tom Clancy novel or a Steven Spielberg film, you are
wrong. If this process has not yet happened, it is only a matter of time
before
scientists take this step. This type of current
scientific knowledge reminds me of a line from the movie Jurassic Park,
where Dr. Malcomb questioned the cloning of dinosaurs as unethical and
said, "Your scientists were so preoccupied in whether or not they could,
they didn't stop and think if they should."
JULY 2004; The EU Transport Commissioner Loyola de Palacio and U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell signed the agreement which will combine The American GPS and the European system named Galileo. The merger further advance the global monitoring satellite program. World users will, with a single receiver, be able to use either of the systems or both of the systems at the same time, promising coverage that is more, precise and continuous. The Pentagon, which controls GPS, initially attacked Galileo as unnecessary and a potential security threat during wartime, saying Galileo signals could interfere with the next generation GPS signals intended for use by the U.S. military. The United States is spending $875 million to upgrade it's GPS with a stronger military signal that will be less vulnerable to enemy interference than the weaker civilian signal currently in use. The upgrade should be completed in the next decade. The 3.6 billion euro ($4.3 billion) Galileo project is slated to go online in 2008. Its 27 satellites would more than double the coverage provided by GPS. For Europe, the satellite deal also lays the groundwork for separate, pay services that can be used in applications requiring a higher degree of accuracy in GPS's civilian monitoring and surveillance. In addition, European officials also envisage a more advance service for government agencies, such as intelligence services, the military, and police forces.BIG BROTHER IN THE USA AND EUROPE GROWS
-------------THE U.S.A. NOW STANDS
FOR THE "UNITED
--------------------SURVEILLANCE
ABERRATION "
JULY 2004; The United States is now a full fledged
surveillance society. The tremendous explosion in surveillance enabling
technologies, combined with the ongoing weakening in legal restraints that
protect our privacy has led us into a global surveillance community.
The bad news is that it can't be stopped and will proceed at a accelerated
growth in The United States, that even George Orwell's 1984 novel, or the
christian King James Bible's mention of 666 and a One World Government
could even fathom it's realities. Americans and the Global community need
to step back from the daily drum of privacy stories and realize the big
picture: the United States has turned into a full fledged surveillance
society. The fact is, George Orwell and The Book of Revelation's
vision of "Big Brother" is now a technological reality. The American
Big Brother, Attorney General John Ashcroft, is asking the Federal Communications
Commission for sweeping new authority to regulate the design of Internet
communications services to make them easier to wiretap. If implemented,
this Ashcroft plan would dramatically increase the governments surveillance
power and making surveillance and privacy violations and the abuse much
more widespread. It would force technology companies to build backdoors
in their systems for wiretapping and thereby create weaknesses that hackers,
thieves and rogue government agents, including The United States law enforcement
agencies capable to further exploit existing laws to invade your privacy
with greater ease and completely void of any judicial or constitutional
process. These laws also make these agencies immune from any type of state
or federal prosecution. The government already has more than enough power
to spy on individuals suspected of wrongdoing. This measure is the equivalent
of requiring all new homes be built with a peephole for law enforcement
agents to look through. A sweeping increase in law enforcement's surveillance
powers such as this should be reviewed by Congress, and not issued by the
Justice Department with the approval of the FCC. This is especially
important since this Department of Justice has demonstrated it has little
respect for privacy rights and instead wants to dramatically increase surveillance
of regular people. In short, it's as if former FBI director J. Edger Hoover
has risen from the grave to continue his witch hunts. The FBI can already
collect information between sources like phone companies and data sources
like e-mail. The FBI's aggressive and expansive abuse of the law
would bypass the legislative process. The Ashcroft plan would harm the
infrastructure of the Internet itself and risk making our communications
easier targets for hackers and thieves, and the criminal element of police
officers and federal agents that infect all state and federal law enforcement
agencies. With the advent of cheap and powerful new technologies, and the
ever increasing collection of data about our activities and our lives,
mass surveillance has become easier than ever. Unfortunately, the threat
of terrorism has prompted many Americans to embrace these sharp increases
in government surveillance over our private lives. Too many people
think we can stop terrorism by monitoring all the hundreds of millions
of people who live in America, and by removing the legal safeguards that
protect us against our own government. This form of civilian surveillance
is a travesty, not only does it threaten our privacy, but it will be abused
by the government and the people most affected will not be terrorists,
but law abiding citizens.
JULY 2004: Throughout this country's history, the phrase "national security" has often been used as a pretext for massive violations of individual rights. In the name of national security, President Wilson authorized the round-up and deportation of thousands of foreign born suspected "radicals" during the Palmer Raids; and President Franklin Roosevelt interned 120,000 Japanese Americans. The Cold War era brought loyalty oaths, blacklisting and travel restrictions. None of these measures were actually necessary to preserve national security; all of them violated civil liberties. The terrorist attacks on September 11 mobilized much of our country in the fight against terrorism. However, this wave of anti terrorist activity, all in the name of national security, also launched one of the most serious civil liberties crises our nation has ever seen. An immutable characteristic of our nation is freedom. If we allow the interests of national security to take away our freedoms, we surrender our American. heritage and it's values which our nation was built upon. The countless lost lives of American soldiers whom have died in action to preserve this heritage, have died for nothing. This saddens me and it is a insult to those men and women whom have died in the name of freedom.National Security
Martial Law is Big Brothers Ultimate GoalWhat is martial law? It is a temporary government and control by military authorities of a territory or state, when war or overwhelming public disturbance makes the civil authorities of the region unable to enforce its law. Martial law refers to rule by the domestic army only; the rule of occupied territory by an invading army is known as military government. During a war, a nation may invoke martial law in some or all of its territory as part of the war effort. Martial law is also applied in serious cases of internal dissension; the army authorities may take over the administrative and judicial functions, and civil safeguards (e.g., habeas corpus and freedom of speech) may also be suspended. Where the civil courts remain open, even if their orders are executed by the military, martial law is not applicable. In the United States the federal government is limited in applying martial law by the provision of Article 1, Section 9, Subsection 2, of the Constitution, which concerns the suspension of habeas corpus. In most U.S. states, martial law may be proclaimed when deemed necessary for the public's safety. However, the U.S. Supreme Court in ex parte Milligan (1866) ruled that military trial of civilians when the civil courts were functioning was unconstitutional. Martial law, which applies to all persons, civil and military, in the area is to be distinguished from military law, the system of rules of government applying only to those in military service.
You have statutory authority to intervene with military force in a state's domestic disputes, upon request from the state legislature (or governor), at 10 U.S.C. 331: Whenever there is an insurrection in any State against its government, the President may, upon the request of its legislature or of its governor if the legislature cannot be convened, call into Federal service such of the militia of the other States, in the number requested by that State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to suppress the insurrection. Similar statutory authority permits you to use military force without any state request to address circumstances whenever and wherever you determine that the laws of the United States cannot be enforced (10 U.S.C. 332):(1) Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any State or Territory by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings, he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress the rebellion. This power is particularly broad, as the U.S. Supreme Court has stated that you may act unilaterally both in deciding whether an insurrection is in effect, and how much force is necessary to address it: Whether the President in fulfilling his duties, as Commander-in-chief, in suppressing an insurrection, has met with such armed hostile resistance, and a civil war of such alarming proportions as will compel him to accord to them the character of belligerents, is a question to be decided by him, and this Court must be governed by the decisions and acts of the political department of the Government to which this power was entrusted. 'He must determine what degree of force the crisis demands.Presidential Constitutional and Statutory Authority to Invoke Martial Law
The U.S. Supreme Court has herein decided that the President has dictatorial power, including the power to suspend the Constitution. including unrestrained powers to act toward insurrectionary citizens as if they were enemies of the United States, and thus place them outside the protection of the constitution. The Constitution can be suspended by any President of the United States who ascertains and proclaims a widespread territorial revolt. Moreover, such plenary power, even in the face of state government opposition has been authorized by Congress. The President, by using the militia or the armed forces, or both, or by any other means, shall take such measures as he considers necessary to suppress, in a State, any insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy. Prior to your use of such force, it is anticipated that you will issue an appropriate proclamation. Whenever the President considers it necessary to use the militia or the armed forces under this chapter, he shall, by proclamation, immediately order the insurgents to disperse and retire peaceably to their abodes within a limited time.

------------The
Three Stooges or The Three Storm Troopers?
The threat of imposing martial law is becoming
a reality every day. The revelations concerning the Untied States war against
Iraq had nothing to do with freeing the Iraqi people. The war was conceived
through deception and propaganda by the Bush Administration.. The reason
American soldiers are in Iraq is simple, the United States access to Middle
East oil. In 2004 Iraq produced over 10% of the earth's crude oil reserves.
The removal of Saddam Hussein, was essential in my opinion. Hussein had
already proven he would use chemical weapons, not only in the Iran~Iraq
war, but Hussein used chemical weapons on his own citizens, mainly the
Kurds in northern Iraq. The way the Iraq war was conceived and presented
to the world's leaders and the American people was filled with lies, deceit,
and misdirection from the Bush Administration. One of the proposals of
Patriot Act II, include anyone who poses a threat to national security
( real or imagined ) would be stripped of their citizenship, thus having
no rights and would be prey to the same torture used on Iraqi prisoners,
Guantanamo Bay inmates, and those imprisoned in Afghanistan. The exposure
of the torture being used in the Iraq prison was shocking to anyone in
the free world. What I found more shocking, was over 1,000 inmates of this
prison were set free within days, thus, their imprisonment was based on
speculation and not on facts. As I have reported before, the John Ashcroft
rule of law is convict now, and trial later. The propaganda which portray
John Ashcroft, and President Bush as christians on a crusade against evil
is one of the best deceptive propaganda portrayal of world leaders ever
used. If anyone has read the Bible, probably the biggest threat to Jesus
in The New Testament wasn't Satan, but it was the Scribes and Pharisees
whom were the church leaders at that time. It was these church leaders
who accused Jesus falsely which led to his crucifixion. According to The
Declaration of Independence, it's the consent of the governed, not the
government, that dictates American rights and liberties. As Americans,
when we recognize government abuses against it's own citizens, it's the
duty of all Americans to resist such a government. The Three Stooges or
The Three Storm Troppers,are both are fitting portrayals of President
George Bush, Attorney General John Ashcroft, and Defense Secretary Donald
Rumsfeld.
----------------------------------------------
Vice President Dick Cheney tells
Senator to" GO F#CK YOURSELF!"
In closing, let us not forget Vice President
Dick Cheney's eloquent and cordial outburst on the senate floor in late
June of 2004. The Cheney outburst of "Go f#ck yourself" made to Vermont
Senator Patrick Leahy was nothing short of the political politeness
that all Americans have grown accustomed too. After the outburst, the Vice
President commented, "I expressed myself rather forcefully, but I
felt better after I had done it,". So here is the American Citizen's message
to George Bush, John Ashcroft, Donald Rumsfeld, and Dick Cheney, "GO F*CK
YOURSELF!" You know what, now all Americans feel better!
-----------------------THE NUCLEAR ARMAGEDDON THEORYJULY 2004; Nuclear weapons derive their enormous explosive force from either the fission or fusion of atomic nuclei. Their significance may best be appreciated by the coining of the words kiloton (1,000 tons) and megaton (one million tons) to describe their blast effect in equivalent weights of TNT. For example, the first nuclear fission bomb, the one dropped on Hiroshima, Japan, in 1945, released energy equaling 15,000 tons (15 kilotons) The current versions of nuclear weapon, such as the MX Missile has a destructive force of 3000 kilotons which is 200 times that of the Hiroshima atomic bomb. The development of laser weapons to destroy missiles while in flight might seem a good defensive deterrent to a nuclear attack. But when you have 10 to 100 nuclear missiles with a force of 1,500 to 3,000 kilotons each, and they are destroyed by a laser system in the atmosphere, the effects of exploding numerous nuclear weapons and their war heads in the atmosphere would be more frightening and destructive than any land based explosion. The fall out after a nuclear detonation of 10 to 100 missiles would spread over a greater distance due to the wind and atmospheric changes. All one has to remember is the Chernobyl Nuclear Accident which occurred on April 26, 1986. After 18 years, the Chernobyl area still remains a ghost town and remains unfit for human occupation due to the lethal and still active radiation fallout.
----------------------SPACE WEAPONS DEPLOYMENT
JULY 2004: The June, 2004 death of former United States president Ronald Reagan was not the death of his STAR WARS Space based weapons system. The political and military view of STAR WARS was deemed that it's purpose was strictly a defensive ploy to shoot down any weapons launched against the United States. This analyst of STAR WARS is true to a certain degree but it's major objective is using these space based orbiting satellites to attack adversary nations from space by destroying their key elements of communications and infrastructure, thus causing chaos and anarchy. These space based weapons add enormous flexibility with their targeting capabilities to destroy and neutralize any nation which poses a threat to The United States. Any weapon designed under the guise for defensive deployment can be used as a offensive alternative as well.
The above image shows a engineer making adjustments to the beam control optics used to stabilize and shape the beam from the oxygen iodine laser. The U.S. Air Force Boeing Airborne Laser ( the ABI ) is designed to detect launched enemy ballistic missile while they are still in their boost phase. The laser then targets the missile and destroys it with a high energy chemical oxygen iodine laser. The Lockheed Martin Space Systems division in Sunnyvale, California is responsible for the laser systems. The fired laser beam will burn a hole in the launched missile's outer skin, thus rupturing it's fuel tank and causing the missile to blow up while in flight. The essential technology for the laser is known as Adaptive Optics.Laser Airborne Optics
The Latest in Satellite Surveillance TechnologyDubbed "The Bowling Ball" Satellite, this experimental sphere is equipped with the latest technology to perform numerous functions which include the ability for sophisticated maneuvering in space. This latest military satellite will provide advanced monitoring in the detection of missile launches, advanced global mapping, and the highest form of gathering digital images of global terrain and human imaging, photographic and audible surveillance that will surpass all the former Global Positioning Satellites combined.. The advanced software algorithms will increase visual and audible acuity and will be a vital tool for the docking and experimental research of the orbiting global space station by using ultrasound transmitter beacons. Each sphere can be controlled by a laptop computer. This project was believed started by a experimental design project at MIT.

------------------THE MX MISSILE
In 1979 the United States Air Force announced plans for a new intercontinental ballistic missile system that would be deployed on a circular railroad track so that more than 200 missiles could be moved into 4,600 shelters to be constructed along the track. The MX is undoubtedly a major factor in American in the event of a future nuclear war. The first of five test launches were held in January 1982. In the MX test a 71 foot long, 92 inch diameter, 195,000 pound missile, without propellants, was thrust more than 300 feet into the air at a 5 degree angle and nearly 100 feet down range into a large earthen pit.--------![]()
--THE MX MISSILE PROJECT 1979~1996
-Total Yield 300 to 3000 Kilotons per Missile
A MX can contain 5 to 10 multiple 300 kiloton war heads
1 kiloton = One ton ( 2000 pounds of TNT )
1 megaton = One Million ( 2,000,000 pounds of TNT )
The MX, also called The Peace keeper missile is America's newest intercontinental ballistic missile. The Peace keeper (designated LGM-118A) is a four stage intercontinental ballistic missile capable of carrying up to ten independently targetable reentry vehicles with greater accuracy than any other ballistic missile. Its design combines advanced technology in fuels, guidance, nozzle design, and motor construction with protection against the hostile nuclear environment associated with land based systems. The Peacekeeper is a three stage rocket ICBM system consisting of three major sections: the boost system, the post boost vehicle system and the re-entry system. The post boost vehicle also employed a self contained inertial navigation system that allowed the missile to operate independent of ground reference or commands during flight. The top section of the Peacekeeper is the re-entry system. It consists of the deployment module, up to 10 cone shaped re-entry vehicles and a protective shroud. The shroud protects the re-entry vehicles during ascent. It is topped with a nose cap, containing a rocket motor to separate it from the deployment module. Each deployed re-entry vehicle follows a ballistic path to its target.
President Carter made his 12 June 1979 decision to proceed with full scale engineering development of the Missile-X. The President augmented this decision on 7 September 1979 and full scale engineering development began one week later. In the 1980s President Reagan instructed the Air Force to conduct a technical assessment to deploy an ICBM quickly as a demonstration of national resolve to preserve deterrence and the United States global nuclear supremacy and it's capability to launch a full nuclear strike of mass destruction against any threat to American security. The Air Force successfully conducted the first test flight of the Peacekeeper June 17, 1983, from Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif. The missile traveled 4,190 miles (6,704 kilometers) before dropping six unarmed test re-entry vehicles on planned target sites in the Kwajalein Missile Test Range in the Pacific Ocean. The first two test phases consisted of 12 test flights to ensure the Peacekeeper's subsystems performed as planned, and to make final assessments of its range and payload capability.
Peacekeeper production began in February 1984 with the production of 50 MX missiles. The second increment of 50 MX missiles would replace Minuteman IIIs missiles belonging to the 319th Strategic Missile Squadron. The completion date of the deployment was scheduled for December 1989. Under the rail garrison plan concept, the Peacekeeper missiles would be placed on trains stationed at various U.S. Air Force installations. The 25 trains, each carrying two missiles, would deploy off base and onto the national railroad network during periods of international tension to improve survivability. In February 1987, the Air Force selected ten additional bases as candidate rail garrison locations. That same year, Congress appropriated $350 million to fund rail garrison research and development. Exercises conducted in 1988 tested and refined the concept of operations, and in May the Secretary of Defense authorized the Air Force to proceed with Peacekeeper Rail Garrison full scale development. The Air Force achieved initial operational capability of 10 deployed Peacekeepers at F.E. Warren AFB, Wyo., in December 1986. Full operational capability was achieved in December 1988 with the establishment of a squadron of 50 missiles.

There are two types of nuclear reactions which are used in nuclear weapons. The nucleus of some heavy elements like Uranium or Plutonium can split into two roughly equal sized nuclei with the release of energy. Such a process is known as nuclear fission. The fission reaction can occur spontaneously in the fissile material. The reaction is also self sustaining. Namely the fission of one nucleus induces the fission of nearby ones and so on, leading to what is called a chain reaction. If a sufficient amount of fissile material is concentrated in one place then the chain reaction proceeds very fast leading to an explosion. On the other hand certain very light elements like isotopes of hydrogen undergo nuclear fusion. In this process, two light nuclei can combine to form a single nucleus with the release of energy. This is the process by which energy is generated in the core of the sun and other stars. The fusion reaction requires very high temperatures and density before it can get initiated. All nuclear weapons use these two reactions in different ways. From the military usage point of view, they are classified as either tactical weapons or strategic weapons. Tactical weapons are low yield weapons that meant to be used in the battlefield against military formations. Strategic weapons are high yield weapons to be used against civilian populations in big cities.
Thermonuclear Weapons, The Neutron Bomb, The Doomsday Bomb
Thermonuclear weapons, also called hydrogen bombs, get most of their yield from the fusion reaction. As in the case of boosted fission weapons, they require a fission explosion to trigger fusion, called the primary stage, to initiate the fusion reaction which is called the secondary stage. However unlike the boosted weapons, thermonuclear weapons contain a substantial amount of fusion fuel and most of their yield comes from fusion. Indeed these are the most powerful of nuclear weapons, often with yields of a few megatons. A third fission stage can also be added to produce very high yield weapons. The most powerful nuclear weapon to have been tested so far is the Tsar Bomba, a 50 megaton three stage weapon exploded by the USSR on 30th October 1961. Enhanced radiation weapons, also called neutron bombs are small tactical thermonuclear weapons which are designed to produce intense nuclear radiation. These weapons are designed to kill soldiers protected by armour (eg. inside tanks). The radiation produced by the neutron bombs can easily penetrate the armour of the tanks and kill the humans inside them. Salted Nuclear Weapons, or cobalt bombs, are thermonuclear weapons which are designed to produce a large amount of long lasting radioactive fallout. This would result in large scale radioactive contamination of the area they are dropped in. The difference between the fallout from the salted weapons and the unsalted one is that the former is much more in quantity and also has a much longer lifetime. The fallout remains radioactive for much longer. The long term effects of such weapons would therefore be much worse. These weapons are called Doomsday Devices since they could possibly kill everyone on earth.
The energy of a nuclear explosion is released in a number of different ways, all of which are lethal which is putting it mildly to say the least. The magnitude of the nuclear blast effect ( generally measured in pounds per square inch ) diminishes with distance from the center of the explosion. A burst on the surface produces the greatest over pressure at very close ranges (which is why surface bursts are used to attack very hard, very small targets such as missile silos), but less over pressure than an air burst at somewhat longer ranges. Raising the height of the burst reduces the over pressure directly under the bomb, but widens the area at which a given smaller over pressure is produced. Thus, an attack on factories with a 1-Mt weapon might use an air burst at an altitude of 8,000 feet [2,400 m], which would maximize the area (about 28 mi2 [7,200 hectares]) that would receive 10 psi or more of over pressure. Nuclear weapons inflict ionizing radiation on people, animals, and plants in two different ways. Direct radiation occurs at the time of the explosion; it can be very intense, but its range is limited. Fallout radiation is received from particles that are made radioactive by the effects of the explosion, and subsequently distributed at varying distances from the site of the blast. Direct radiation did substantial damage to the residents of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.in WWII when the first atom bombs were detonated. These two nuclear bombs were named Little Boy and Fat Man. The death toll of these explosions exceeded 150,000.
Approximately 35 percent of the energy from a
nuclear explosion is an intense burst of thermal radiation heat. The effects
are roughly analogous to the effect of a 2 second flash from an enormous
sun lamp. Since the thermal radiation travels at the speed of light (actually
a bit slower, since it is deflected by particles in the atmosphere), the
flash of light and heat precedes the blast wave by several seconds, just
as lightning is seen before the thunder is heard. Electromagnetic pulse
(EMP) is an electro-magnetic wave similar to radio waves, which results
from secondary reactions occurring when the nuclear gamma radiation is
absorbed in the air or ground. It is similar to the electrical signal from
lightning, but the rise in voltage is typically a hundred times faster.
This means that most equipment designed to protect electrical facilities
from lightning works too slowly to be effective against EMP. The strength
of an EMP will destroy or damage the communications and electric power
systems of the intended explosion area. For further reading on nuclear

AUGUST 2004; The market for human chip implants and monitoring devices using the GPS and RFID chips may not be a demand by world governments on it's citizens, but made by the public themselves. This market which uses the technology chip known as RFID is being employed by individuals such as movie stars, political families whom are deemed in danger of a kidnapping by local criminals, and every day citizens who deploy a RFID device on their children and pets in case they are abducted or lost. In these scenarios, a abducted person with a RFID chip may be located using the GPS technology. The countries in South America, especially the Colombian, Argentina, and Brazilian governments, have a high risk of civilian abduction by the drug cartels and their drug lords of those regions. The United States media bombards it's citizens with "KNOW WHAT YOUR CHILDREN ARE DOING" and numerous families have employed the RFID chip for tracking their children in case of abduction, or they just want to know where and what their siblings are doing. The GPS systems already uses this technology in numerous fields such as cell phones to detect a individual within meters of the cell phone's transmission. It is somewhat ironic that the human race, rather than government protocol, requires RFID chip implants, and numerous other monitoring technologies to be used on the human race in the name of safety and security.Network-Centric is Growing
August 7, 2004
The era of Big Brother is in full boom and is a multi billion dollar industry. In America, simply go to any Wal-Mart. In a Wal-Mart parking lot you will notice the numerous cameras mounted on the building's roof and atop the light poles. Once inside Wal-Mart you notice the all seeing eye cams mounted in the ceiling's structure under a black dome which monitors the customers movements. The other monitoring devices are so concealed you would never know that your being watched. Then while your shopping you will notice numerous products a consumer may use to test their children ( or children testing their parents ) for drugs, alcohol, pregnancy and so forth. Wal-Mart and Deutsche Morgan Grenfell are two firms that have made the shift to network-centric operations. Within the retailing sector, Wal-Mart consistently has outperformed its competitors. In 1996, it had earnings of $3 billion on sales of nearly $105 billion. Wal-Mart has developed a significant competitive edge by reducing its cost of sales to two to three percentage points below the industry average. Wal-Mart was able to achieve this edge by making the shift to network-centric operations and translating information superiority into competitive advantage. Realizing that it had grown past the point where it could cost effectively synchronize supply and demand from the top down, the company over time set up a sophisticated operational architecture consisting of a sensory capability and a transaction grid to generate a higher level of awareness within its retail ecosystem. I myself was at a local post office and noticed a wall clock hanging on the wall. After closer inspection, while waiting in line, I noticed this wall clock was equipped with a small digital cam where the lobby could be easily monitored and recorded on tape.
The network-centric program being developed by the latest technology goes way beyond the current GPS monitoring system. Using a array of sensors, it is now feasible to use the current missile guided laser system which has been used in both Iraq wars, to guide missiles to designated targets, now will be used to guide bullets from a soldiers weapon. These network-centric bullets will have the capabilities to change course while in flight to hit their target. The US Coast Guard, along with the military contractors Northrop Grumman and Lockheed Martin, are implementing this technology on a new Coast Guard ship program known as the Offshore Patrol Cutter. In it's most basic form, the network-centric is a array cameras that monitors locations 24 hours a day. These cameras not only record what is happening, but will use software to analyze movements and then provide the most logical scenario to attack the problem. The era where cams and other visual surveillance tools have now out numbered the humans assigned to watch these surveillance monitors. This new software will take this task of viewing monitors out of the human element and into the computers software abilities. One example is analyzing certain bodily movements of a individual which the software deems suspicious. This will cause the computer's software program to track the individuals movements from camera to camera. Some current technologies such as face recognition software are still plagued by glitches and are not yet reliable enough for accurate analysis. Information technology is undergoing a fundamental shift from platform centric computing to network-centric computing. Platform centric computing emerged with the widespread proliferation of personal computers in business, the military, and in the home. We are now global computing environment. Network-centric computing is governed by Metcalfe's Law, which asserts that the "power" of a network is proportional to the square of the number of nodes in the network. The U.S. economy has been on a steady growth path generally attributed to the emergence of larger global markets, the globalization of labor and capital, and the widespread application of information technology within business enterprises.
Network-centric operations deliver to the U.S.
military the same powerful dynamics as they produced in American business.
At the strategic level, the critical element for both is a detailed understanding
of the appropriate competitive elements. Tactically, speed is critical.
At the structural level, network-centric requires an operational architecture
with three critical elements, which are sensor grids and transaction (or
engagement) grids hosted by a high quality information computer grid. The
structural or logical model for network-centric warfare has emerged. The
entry fee is a high performance information grid that provides a backbone
for computing and communications. The information grid enables the operational
architectures of sensor grids and engagement grids. Sensor grids rapidly
generate high levels of awareness and synchronize awareness with
military operations. Network-centric warfare allows our forces to develop
a greater degree of speed and command decisions.
This is not theory, it is happening now.
The United States military may be special people in the armed forces, but
we are not a special case. It would be false pride that would keep us from
learning from others and change is inevitable. We can choose to lead it,
or be victims of it. The only thing harder than getting a new idea
into the military mind is getting an old one out.
Network-Centric warfare derives its power from
the strong networking of a well informed and geographically dispersed force.
Speed of Command is the process by which a superior
information position is turned into a competitive advantage. It is characterized
by the decisive altering of initial conditions, the development of high
rates of change, and locking in success while locking out alternative enemy
strategies. It recognizes all elements of the operating situation as parts
of a complex adaptive ecosystem and achieves profound effect through the
impact of closely coupled events. The information grid enables the operational
architectures of sensor grids and engagement grids. Sensor grids rapidly
generate high levels of battle space awareness and synchronize awareness
with military operations. The theory behind network-centric operations
is that linking disparate portions of the battlefield will allow the U.S.
armed services to deploy a more focused and more lethal force by
providing front-line war fighters with critical information, including
a near real time view of the battlefield, to ensure knowledge superiority.
Vice President Dick Cheney, spoke at an event sponsored by the Heritage
Foundation. Cheney went through a laundry list of technological advantages
that contributed to the Iraq military victory, though he never used the
term network-centric. "Those advances in command and control allowed us
to integrate joint operations much more effectively than ever before, thereby
enabling commanders to make decisions more rapidly, to target strikes more
precisely, to minimize human casualties, civilian casualties, and to accomplish
the missions more successfully," Cheney said. All of the armed services
have started incorporating network-centric principles into their operations.
The Department of Defense ( DOD ) has made significant progress in getting the right information to the right people in near real time. The goal is to develop high rates of change that an adversary cannot outpace, while sharply narrowing that adversary's strategic options. The DOD has demonstrated major gains in war fighting using wireless networking and other technologies. Major military failures frequently arise when leaders ignore fundamental changes in technology, doctrine or society. There is an over reliance on technology as promulgated by network-centric warfare advocates, just as the United States overly relied on logistics and order of battle advantages in Vietnam. In Vietnam, the United States won every battle engagement, but in the end it did not matter, and terrorism presents a similar paradigm. An antagonist employing a mathematical, symmetrical battle match can still overwhelm superior technology. The concept of network-centric warfare has additional shortcomings. It is still inherently vulnerable to the mathematical concept of warfare. Throw enough assets and chaos at the network, and it becomes vulnerable to enemy exploitation.
Information and networking alone are not substitutes for combat maneuver and the massing of armed forces. As in a chess game, situational awareness alone is not power and neither is pure knowledge by itself. Rather, knowing the move to make, or analysis, in relation to an anticipated enemy movement is key. Network-centric warfare is akin to a chess game where the movement of pieces is more important than the power and position of the pieces. Network-centric warfare offers great opportunities, and its concept should not be ignored; however, there also are serious technological barriers that must be overcome, especially if there is a definitive fielding schedule to be achieved. Although scientific and engineering funding will probably assist in developing many of the required technologies, science and engineering technology frequently follow an independent development path, and more funding will not necessarily bring about a desired implemented system or entity. Science cannot be rushed. Western civilization relies on technology to make life easier, and this includes the military forces as well. Science and technology have made U.S. armed forces second to none in the world, yet it is not a total or singular answer to all threats and situations. Sometimes technology will fail, and sometimes it may even be irrelevant to an event or situation.
The term network-centric warfare broadly describes the combination of emerging tactics, techniques and procedures that a networked force can employ to create a decisive war fighting advantage. In the industrial age, power was primarily derived from mass and the sources of power for moving mass. In the information age, power is increasingly derived from information sharing, information access and speed at which that information is obtained. Worldwide, militaries are crafting their individual responses to the challenges and opportunities of the information age. They are taking actions that demonstrate an increased understanding of the sources of information age war fighting advantage. Besides network-centric warfare, currently used by the armed forces of the United States, Denmark, Norway and the Netherlands, other coined terms include Australia's network enabled warfare, the United Kingdom's network enabled capability, the Swedish armed forces' network based defense and the armed forces of the Republic of Singapore's knowledge based command and control. Each of these terms reflects its respective military's ongoing response to the information age. Clearly, militaries worldwide are continuing to take a close look at network-centric warfare and related concepts for information age warfare.
Perhaps the most fundamental flaw in network-centric warfare is that it is based on the premise that machine intelligence and analysis is superior and can be substituted for work now being performed by soldiers. However, no viable proof exists that software algorithms, information fusing or Boolean decision analysis will be any more successful than is the current soldier in the loop. It is important to remember that the history of commercial computer networks is replete with actual instances of massive communication, information, security and processing failures. It is one thing for a Web site or computer server to fail or be hacked; it is quite another for U.S. military forces to encounter the same degree of failure on the battle field.
NOTE; This months article is somewhat unique. We report on numerous subjects which concern the public. The below article concerns the current legal system. In the One World Government it will be much worse as the state will protect their own and prosecute innocent citizens. It displays two cases, one who works within the solaced legal system and immune from prosecution concerning criminal acts. The other case concerns a citizen whom is outside the legal system and has been subjected to prosecution on false charges by criminals who hide behind their badge or oath of office.OKLAHOMA OR NAZI~HOMA
---------------August 19, 2004
BELOW IS THE EDITORIAL OPINIONS OF JAYSNETAUGUST 2004; As in many cases, numerous individuals in law enforcement, the government, your local district attorneys, are infected with criminal and unethical people who tailor their interpretation of state and federal laws to fit their own agenda to deal with those who they deem are a threat to their ideology of right and wrong. These people whom hide behind their badges and office to commit criminal acts do so by twisting their interpretation of the law to fit any occasion in order to charge innocent people with numerous crimes. These people who are wrongly charged may have different ideas, morals, and values that differ from those in office who have manipulated the law to imprison these people they deem unfavorable. In short, it is the same as the Hitler approach to his hatred of the jews. To complicate matters, even when the falsely accused has been found innocent of any wrong doing, that person's reputation has been ruined, as well as the financial loss due to the legal fees incurred. So the final solution is that those in office win regardless of the outcome. If guilty, the person goes to prison, if innocent, the person is ruined financially and in many cases, mentally. It's a win-win scenario for the corrupt individuals who have abused their oath of office or hide behind their badge. In the end, the crooked cops and the prosecutors win as they have unlimited financial resources which come at the tax payers expense. Those who hide behind the guise of upholding the law and who are involved in criminal activity, are immuned from any type of criminal prosecution due too our current legal system. I wanted to dedicate this to those whom have been victimized by corrupt individuals in the Oklahoma City Police Department and the District Attorneys Office.
A Brief Perspective Which Concerns Two Cases
The Case 1 story concerns a citizen outside the
legal system whom has been falsely accused of numerous charges, and has
more than enough evidence to prove individuals in The Oklahoma District
Attorneys Office & The Oklahoma City Police Department guilty of obstruction
of justice, racketeering, perjury, plus numerous other criminal activity.
A complaint was filed with The FBI against Oklahoma City Judge Susan Caswell,
Oklahoma City prosecutor Louis William Keel, and Oklahoma City Detective
Robert Mathews. To view this case which concerns a innocent citizen against
a corrupt legal system go to Jays Story Below:
This story concerns a individual inside the legal system and the innocent victims which were ruined. Joyce Gilchrist received her nickname "Black Magic" owing to her remarkable ability to see evidence other forensic chemists could not see, to draw conclusions that others would not approach, to turn speculation into fact and in doing so help the Oklahoma County District Attorney's office rack up win after win in district court. According to news reports, there are currently at least six federal, state and local agencies re-examining her work. Numerous falsely convicted individuals are being freed from Oklahoma's prisons in what is turning out to be one of the biggest scandals of all time in a state widely known for its scandals and corruption within the police and district attorneys office. A U.S. District Judge Ralph G. Thompson reviewed a Oklahoma death penalty case and concluded that Gilchrist in her testimony gave "untrue" and "misleading" testimony. Thompson noted that forensic chemist Joyce Gilchrist had clear knowledge of DNA test results that would have pointed to the innocence of accused citizens. Thompson criticized not only Gilchrist's testimony and actions, but also noted that she has been repeatedly criticized by the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals for such things as testifying "to a conclusion which was not scientifically supported" and submitting reports that were "at best incomplete, and at worst inaccurate and misleading."
In a 21 year career, Oklahoma City police chemist
Joyce Gilchrist was a prosecutor's dream: She delivered supportive lab
analysis and convincing testimony that helped send hundreds to prison and
at least 23 people to death row. So much of her work was questioned by
appeals courts and forensics experts that she was suspended then fired
from the Oklahoma City Police Department.. Investigators are digging through
1,197 of her cases to see whether anyone is behind bars
because of false or misleading testimony. In
a the year 2001 Oklahoma lead the nation in carrying out the death
penalty, and
with suspect convictions being reviewed even
beyond the Gilchrist cases, some are pondering the unthinkable: Has Oklahoma
executed the innocent? "I think there's a real concern that that has happened,"
said Jim Bednar, a former state and federal prosecutor and state judge.
A FBI review of eight cases revealed significant flaws in her analysis.
The state's Oklahoma crime lab completed an initial review of 817 files
from Ms. Gilchrist's cases, turning up problems significant enough in at
least 16 percent of them to warrant a more extensive review. Oklahoma's
problems with pre-DNA forensic science have shadowed other cases as well,
including some handled by the OSBI itself, known as the Oklahoma Bureau
of Investigation. A judge in Wagoner County threw out the murder conviction
of Albert Wesley Brown, who served 18 years of a life sentence. A former
OSBI chemist testified that hairs found at the scene belonged to Mr. Brown,
but recent DNA tests proved otherwise. In another case, the Oklahoma City
Police Department asked the task force to review 10 cases handled by a
second former police chemist, the late Janice Davis. In one such case,
Ms. Davis used hair and fiber analysis to link Dewey George Moore to a
1984 murder. The task force ordered DNA tests to determine whether Mr.
Moore has wrongly spent 16 years on death row. In yet another example of
Gilchrist at her "worst" one need only look at the case of Curtis Edward
McCarty, accused, tried and convicted of first degree murder. The Oklahoma
Court of Criminal Appeals in reversing McCarty's conviction ruled a new
trial was required owing to numerous issues with Gilchrist's testimony.
These issues included errors, failures and untrue testimony in the case.
You can read the entire Appeals Court ruling at McCARTY v. STATE. The Oklahoma
Court found that Ms. Gilchrist's delay and neglect in not completing her
forensic examination and report was inexcusable. Another example of Joyce
Gilchrist's criminal and unethical tactics may also be found in FOX v.
STATE
In 1999, two men who had spent 12 years in prison, one on death row, were released after DNA tests cleared them in an Ada, Oklahoma rape-murder. The cases were luckily reviewed by a New York based Innocence Project and not by the Oklahoma City ( Nazi~homa ) Police or District Attorneys Office. "I'm very concerned that there may be anybody serving time or facing execution who may be actually innocent of the charges," said Oklahoma Attorney General Drew Edmondson, "And that's why I'm very interested in reviewing all of these cases." Mr. Edmondson, opposes a blanket moratorium on executions, similar to one ordered by Illinois Gov. George Ryan after he learned that 13 death row inmates had been exonerated since 1987. The questions arising in Oklahoma are similar to concerns raised in other states in recent years. Also Oklahoma Attorney General Drew Edmondson's Office has failed to file one charge against Gilchrist, so I would question his sincerity and integrity on this matter.
Since the death penalty resumed in 1976, 98 death row inmates across the country including seven in Texas, have been cleared by new evidence, according to the Death Penalty Information Center. In 11 of those cases DNA testing played a role. In that time period, 736 people have been executed nationwide, in which many were innocent due to the corrupt individuals in the police and district attorneys office. "There's some opposition to our testing people already executed," said Mr. Bednar, the indigent defense system chief. "I think it would be a horrible mistake for us not to do that." noting the 11 Gilchrist cases in which inmates have already been executed will be not be considered. Many Oklahoma defense attorneys are convinced that such testing would prove that shoddy, possibly corrupt science was used to secure convictions. Complaints about Ms. Gilchrist's work arose while former Oklahoma County District Attorney Bob Macy was the chief prosecutor. Oklahoma County District Attorney Robert Macy, who often relied on testimony from Gilchrist, announced his resignation in June of 2001. Macy proudly claims to have tried at least 60 capital cases and is known as America's Deadliest DA. The more appropriate term would be America's Most Crooked DA. Mr. Macy had defended Ms. Gilchrist, the main reason possibly stems from Bob Macy's endorsement of Susan Caswell for circuit judge, whom was another corrupt prosecutor for the city, and was elected as a judge stemming from such political propaganda flyers as the one below.
One Oklahoma judge, Judge Burkett, made a statement which summarizes the character of Susan Caswell, " I would have a serious problem believing anything Caswell said to me, and without absolute trust in both defense and prosecuting lawyers, a fair trial would be slim and I couldn't try a case which involved Susan Caswell."
Ms. Gilchrist joined the Oklahoma City Police Department in 1980 as a crime lab chemist, trained at the FBI academy in Quantico, Va. Two years later, she was the target of a complaint to the Southwestern Association of Forensic Scientists, filed by John T. Wilson, the chief forensic scientist in the Kansas City, Mo., regional crime laboratory. Mr. Wilson asserted that Ms. Gilchrist's testimony in four cases amounted to opinion that could not be supported by science. The group warned her to avoid mixing "personal opinions" and "opinions based upon facts derived from scientific evidence." According to a Police Department memo in, she continued to have problems with professional organizations. She was expelled from the Association of Crime Scene Reconstruction for "ethical violations." The Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals in 1988 overturned the murder conviction of Curtis Edward McCarty, ruling in part that Ms. Gilchrist testified beyond her expertise. In another case, a federal judge in 1999 in Oklahoma City overturned the rape conviction of Alfred Brian Mitchell, ruling that Ms. Gilchrist's testimony was "terribly misleading, if not false." In another case, a state judge ordered Jeffrey Todd Pierce released after he had served nearly 15 years on a rape conviction. They [police and prosecutors] basically had an advocate and not a scientist in Joyce Gilchrist and that's tragic. Ms. Gilchrist was transferred to the police equine lab in March 2000. She was then placed on paid administrative. Former Police Chief M.T. Berry, who requested the FBI review of her work, said the decision to terminate Ms. Gilchrist came after a police review board hearing.
"My heart goes out to all the other people I know
that are in here who are innocent because of the Oklahoma County District
Attorney's Office and the Oklahoma City Police Department," said Jeffrey
Todd Pierce after he was freed from a Oklahoma prison. Mr. Pierce sat behind
bars for 15 long years before DNA tests proved his innocence. Mr. Pierce
was another victim of
Joyce Gilchrist. Along with Gilchrist's misrepresentation
of hair and fiber analysis in court to get convictions for the district
attorney's office, the Oklahoma City Police Department can't even
keep its records straight. Some investigations won't be able to review
certain cases for three years that include 1980, 1981, and 1990 because
they can't be found. In yet another case, DNA evidence showed that a man
named Ronnie Lott was a perpetrator of a crime in a second trial in which
Gilchrist had discounted Lott as a suspect based on her analysis in the
first trial! One Alfred Brian Mitchell was convicted for a 1991 murder
as well as rape and sodomy of Elaine Scott. In 1999 a Federal Court
in Oklahoma overturned the rape and sodomy convictions as the jury in the
original trial had not been informed a FBI agent refuted Joyce Gilchrist's
test results and testimony. Gilchrist also testified about hair evidence
in the trial of Goldie Fowler's grandson, Mark. Three months prior
to her death, Mark was convicted and sentenced to death for the murders
of three grocery store employees. Mark always maintained he was the
lookout man when the murders occurred and that he never killed anyone.
Gilchrist's testimony about hair evidence implicated him as a killer.
He was executed January 23, 2001. Goldie's son, Jim Fowler, and his
wife Ann , now have too many unanswered questions about Gilchrist's
forensic examination and testimony and why their son is dead and why they
were led to believe for a total of 10 years that an innocent man raped
and murdered their loved one.
Seldom in our modern system of criminal justice do we see such abuse and criminal activity as in Oklahoma City. We see innocent persons convicted largely on the basis of false, misleading and unfounded testimony by witnesses and those within the legal system who are willing to say or do anything to please the district attorney's office. A justice system so flawed and untrustworthy that it should be replaced from bottom to top. Until that time it is certain there will be more cases such as that of Jeffrey Todd Pierce, an innocent man convicted for a terrible crime, and who as a result of a corrupt justice system, lost his family, fifteen years of his life and his future and all this without compensation from a state willing only to say "We're Sorry" and do nothing to compensate the man for his losses. Until such time as districts attorney, police officers and crime lab personnel are held criminally liable for their lies, deceptions and false testimony we are certain to have a criminal justice bordering on the criminal itself. It's time we started enforcing the law on those sworn to uphold it. A very good place to start would be with Joyce Gilchrist, Susan Caswell, Lou Keel, Detective Robert Mathews, and Bob Macy. I wish I could print a happy ending concerning Joyce Gilchrist, but I can't. The below civil case was dismissed and Ms. Gilchrist, as well as Bob Macy, are proven immune from prosecution. I might add that the Oklahoma Attorney General's Office and the Oklahoma City District Attorneys Office failed to file or charge any crime against Ms. Gilchrist, not one!

This abusive conduct will never end. One story

City District Attorney. Wes Lane's wife, Lori Hansen, pleaded guilty to
a drug felony ( No.

in 2001. The result's were a little more than
a slap on the wrist and the judge was no other than Susan Caswell. This
case was expunged and can no longer be found on the OSCN
network. To view the current information simply click on case No.
CF-2001-6065 Oklahoma City Police Sex Crimes Division Lt. Robert Matthews,
has also had complaints filed against him and reported to the FBI concerning
numerous criminal acts. It was just recently, in December of 2003,
Gerald ``Butch'' McKenna, a detective in the same department as Lt. Matthews,
committed suicide in his own office at The Oklahoma City Police Department.
The suicide may have been related to officer McKenna possibly informing
on Matthews and other officers guilty of criminal activity. When a police
officer commits suicide in his own office at The Oklahoma Police Station,
this should indicate something is terribly wrong. Another individual whom
has had criminal complaints filed against him is Oklahoma City DA prosecutor
William Lou Keel. One example of Mr. Keel's work concerned a child sexual
abuse case. Mr. Keel admitted that their state expert witness, a Alfred
Lera, who had testified for the State in over two dozen child abuse cases
was himself found guilty of the sexual molestation of at least one 12 year
old boy and taking nude photos of two other young boys under the
age of 17. Lou Keel also has had complaints filed against him made
to the FBI and The Department of Justice concerning criminal activity.
In closing, a police officer Oklahoma City Police Captain Tom Jester told
me, " THE OKLAHOMA CITY DISTRICT ATTORNEYS OFFICE DOES NOT PROSECUTE POLICE
OFFICERS OR THEIR OWN." It seems he was correct.

MEMORY OF THE 911 VICTIMS
----------WE
WILL NEVER FORGET YOU
------- September
11, 2001
SEPTEMBER 2004; Following the introduction of the first Congressional legislation building upon the findings of the 9/11 commission report, numerous american civilians and organizations have called for a calm and deliberative process before lawmakers enact further legislative changes that would have a far reaching impact on the freedoms and liberties of all Americans. The Patriot Act has taught us that legislation passed in haste can lead to an unnecessary loss of privacy and freedom. As Congress considers ways to make the country safer, we must also strive to protect the Constitution rather than undermine it. The 9/11 commissions recommendations warrant careful deliberation and Congress must not simply rubber-stamp its findings to appease their future political future. In short, no more telling people what they want to hear to achieve future votes and falsely portray themselves as the guardians of good, when they are more like the fodder of fools. Any restructuring of our national intelligence operations must be done with civil liberties in minds and Congress must not blindly implement the 911 commissions findings without considering the long term ramifications that it will have on our basic freedoms and liberties. We must not permit a ‘trust us we're the government’ attitude to guide significant changes that will affect all Americans. At the conclusion of the 911 report, the clear signs of miscommunication, incompetent intelligence, failure to follow up on crucial intelligence, was a loud and clear sign of human error. Any organization may have the most advanced technology and monitoring analysis system, but if the human element fails to follow up on these information gathering technologies, they are useless and no future laws such as The Patriot Act Law, The RICO Law, or these Home Land Security type institutions are worthless.
If we've learned anything from the Patriot Act,
its that reform needs to follow the Constitution to keep America strong
and
we need to make sure that happens with the 9/11
report, which should be commended for its attention to personal freedoms
but should not be adopted blindly. The ideal of the 911 reports
vision for intelligence reform, includes a White House "czar"
who would be a United States individual whom
has complete managerial control over the intelligence community. This is
Big Brother in a nutshell and the thought of such a individual with this
power is a horrifying aspect of where we are heading. Even the ACLU
expressed concern that having one person in charge of both domestic and
foreign intelligence gathering could result in the greater use of espionage
trade craft against American citizens on American soil, which is inherently
antithetical to the Constitution. The ACLU seems to forget that morality
and values have nothing to do with politics or our government. A proposed
national intelligence director position brings back memories of the Pharaohs
of Egypt, the Russian Czars, Napoleon, Adolph Hitler, and numerous
others who were trusted with to much power.
Throughout this country's history, the phrase "national security" has often been used as a pretext for massive violations of individual rights. In the name of national security, President Wilson authorized the round-up and deportation of thousands of foreign born suspected "radicals" during the Palmer Raids; and President Franklin Roosevelt interned 120,000 Japanese Americans. The Cold War era brought loyalty oaths, blacklisting and travel restrictions, and the 1950s McCarthy Red Scare where paranoia had a communist to be hiding under everyone's bed or in their closet. None of these measures were actually necessary to preserve national security; but they were used and all of them violated civil liberties in the name of national security.
The September 11, 2001 attack mobilized much of our country in the fight against terrorism. However, this wave of "anti-terrorist" activity, all in the name of national security, launched one of the most serious civil liberties crises our nation has ever seen. An immutable characteristic of our nation is freedom. If we allow the interests of "national security" to take away our freedoms, we surrender what it is to be an American. The First Amendment exists precisely to protect the most offensive and controversial speech from government suppression.
Historically, at times of national stress, real
or imagined. First Amendment rights come under enormous pressure. During
the Red Scare of the early 1920s, thousands were deported for their political
views. During the McCarthy period, the infamous blacklist ruined lives
and careers. Today, the creators, producers and distributors of popular
culture are often blamed for the nations deep social problems. Calls for
censorship threaten to erode free speech. America, according to the government,
was shocked during the Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake Super Bowl incident,
then months later, vice president Dick Cheney
verbally tells a US Senator to " Fuck Off " on
the Senate Floor. This is the hypocrisy that americans are subjected to
on a daily basis. Let us not forget the past or we are doomed to repeat
it in the future.
Would You Like a Order of Surveillance With Your Pizza?
In a new online video unveiled recently, the American Civil Liberties Union takes a break from its serious side to illustrate how new technologies and weak privacy laws can be used to reveal sensitive information about a person involved in even the most mundane of business transactions, including ordering a pizza. "The fact is that new technologies and new government policies are eroding our personal privacy and creating a 24-hour total surveillance society," said Anthony D. Romero, Executive Director of the ACLU. "We need to reach people on a basic level and show them how this massive erosion of privacy could have a real impact on their daily lives, even in their late-night pizza deliveries." In the video, a pizza parlor is able look up a caller’s medical records, employment history, credit card purchases, travel plans, library loans and even the magazines that his wife subscribes to, all with the click of a mouse. In one spot, after noticing that the caller recently purchased a pair of 42-inch khakis, the parlor employee suggests he change his order to a "sprout submarine combo" instead of his usual double meat pizza.Attorney General John Ashcroft says NO to privacy
Text accompanying the video urges the viewer to
help prevent a "Total Surveillance Society" and notes that "the Bush Administration's
policies, coupled with invasive new technologies, could eliminate your
right to privacy completely."
The Patriot Act gives the government broad surveillance
powers that can be used to intrude on the private lives of innocent citizens.
Astonishingly, if he deemed it necessary, top Nazi-Goon Attorney General
Ashcroft could get authorization from a secret court to place wiretaps
on your phones without probable cause. He can demand records of your reading
habits from bookstores and libraries. He can even make and keep a copy
of the key to your house. The Bush Administration’s approach to preventing
terrorism has been based on a Orwellian approach that turns every American
into a suspect
