Lawrence calls for US jet fighter crash inquest
Federal MP Carmen Lawrence wants the US to give a full explanation of how 
one of its planes overshot a runway at Pearce air force base, north of Perth.

The F18 Hornet, from the USS Abraham, had been taking part in training 
exercises with another fighter jet and the accident happened on their 
return to base.

It is one of 20 of the jets currently stationed at Pearce, taking part in 
exercises at the Lancelin bombing range.

The jet damaged its surface and fuselage during the crash.

An investigation is being carried out by the US navy.

Dr Lawrence says she wants the results of this investigation to be made 
fully available to the Australian public.

"I think it's important we know exactly what's happened and whether it's 
likely to be repeated," she said.

"I'm confident the Australian Defence Forces would want to know why this 
has occurred."

On Friday night 17th January protesters at the Narangba Food Irradiation 
Plant where attacked by police. Police arrived at the protest camp late on 
Friday evening and without warning set police dogs on the protesters at the 
camp.

One protester was punched in the face by a dog handler and had his nose 
broken. When placed in the back of the paddy wagon his ankles where smashed 
by police with batons and he and another male were then sprayed with 
capsicum spray. Two others where arrested and assaulted including one local 
and ironically charged with assault. Locals where pushed over and abused by 
police and one young local boy was punched in the jaw by an officer. An 
older woman was also pushed to the ground.

Things at the camp it seems are hotting up with the call from State 
Development to vacate the site by 8am Monday morning. Undercover police 
were spotted hiding in bushes near the camp, one of them constantly 
circling the camp on a trail bike with its lights off. The police seem 
intent on arresting as many people as possible before Mondays eviction and 
are stooping to all levels to do this.

People are needed at the camp immediately. So please come along and show 
your support.

Re: Desert Spam(The war)

2003-01-18 Thread Sarad AV
hi,


Does n't that also mean that the US will have to time
well the ending of the war or the fall of iraq(If iraq
is to fall-that we will have to wait and see).

Usually we have oil reserves which can last three
months from the start of the war.How ever then the US
will not be able to sell it-until the reserves of
other countries dry out.

That would mean that it cannot let iraq fall at an
early stage of the war.No body will buy the oil from
US then and US will not be able to cover up the cost
of the war or may be even make profit of it.

So if US tries  blitzkrieg-iraq may fall in less than
100 days but they can't afford that to happen.They
would have to wait till the other countries oil
reserved dry out-sell the oil-make the money and then
invade iraq.

It also would mean that there can be no more countries
around iraq drawn fully into the war for US.

If Iran or Israel would attack iraq then the US oil
equation will not work.There are also enough sects in
and around iraq who will fight their way into iraq
once they find iraq is going to fall at any point
during the war.So US will want iraq be able to defend
its territories till it can sell the oil.Once that is
done-it can have its free run on iraq. 
It also might mean a long campaign the arieal route
-missiles and bombs from planes.The ground troops will
be only pressed only when iraq would be ready to be
fell.
US seems to run a very big gamble for very big
money.Will have to  see how well it works and what
surprises iraq can come up with.

Regards Sarath.

Australians against non-UN attack on Iraq: poll
A new survey of public opinion on Australia's involvement in a potential 
war with Iraq shows only 6 per cent would support a conflict without United 
Nations endorsement.

The AC Nielsen poll published in metropolitan newspapers today said 30 per 
cent of Australians would not support a war with Iraq under any circumstances.

According to the poll, 62 per cent of Australians believe the nation should 
only be involved as part of a UN-approved attack.

Eight Mile.

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
Longish thread follows review...
In Eminem''s debut film, 8 Mile, we get a glimpse of the profound 
contradictions underlying this white rapper's ascent to fame. The 
semi-autobiographical movie is set in Detroit's 8 Mile Road area, a 
predominantly Black ghetto at the city limit --the colour line of the city. 
8 Mile chronicles Jimmy "Rabbit" Smith's struggle to record a demo and to 
eventually get a record deal while trying to survive the drudgery of work 
and life in a trailer park. The movie seems to show that rap is the 
language of the working class and impoverished, that it resonates across 
colour lines. However, it's apparent to me that 8 Mile cannot escape the 
fact that rap has everything to do with "race", so Rabbit's struggle to 
gain recognition as a rapper in an all-Black milieu is characterized by 
some very interesting anxieties around Blackness and whiteness.
The movie opens with Rabbit "choking" on stage at a rap competition in a 
local club. The all-Black audience boos Rabbit, illuminated on screen in 
bright lights, as he strains to utter a word under the pressure of the 
glaring crowd veiled in shadows: Rabbit has ventured into the heart of 
darkness, if you will. Indeed, Rabbit's presence is met with constant 
hostility in this subculture. Despite the tension, Rabbit's all-Black 
"crew" of friends is a constant source of affirmation and comic relief: the 
only purpose of the Black characters is to provide a foil for Rabbit. 
Besides the role of sidekick, Black people are a source of fear and 
antagonism for Rabbit, not only within the hip hop scene but within the 
workplace as well. For instance, in the factory that Rabbit works at, he is 
under constant surveillance by his Black foreman.
In one scene, Rabbit stands in line at the lunch truck while his Black 
co-workers rap about their hard working conditions. We can see that rap 
here is an organic expression of working class discontent. However, one 
Black worker's rap is homophobic and targets an openly gay co-worker. 
Rabbit--apparently the great white gay liberationist--intervenes and puts 
the (stereotypically) homophobic Black rapper in his place by lambasting 
him with witty raps in front of everyone else. 8 Mile blurs fact and 
fiction, so the audience can't help but see Rabbit as Eminem, so this scene 
is particularly corny considering Eminem's virulently homophobic lyrics in 
real life.
An especially interesting aspect of the movie is Rabbit''s allegiance to 
and, at the same time, discomfort with whiteness. Besides Rabbit, in this 
movie, white people are clearly uncool. Rabbit seems to be embarrassed by 
the white, working class culture that he comes from as personified by his 
bingo-playing, hard-drinking mother with her Southern drawl. While hanging 
out with a friend in front of his trailer, Rabbit mockingly raps about 
living in a trailer park with his mom along to "Sweet Home Alabama", Lynyrd 
Skynyrd's homage to Southern pride*, while his mother's boyfriend blasts 
the music in the background. Rabbit, through his parody, tries to distance 
himself from the racist legacy of his heritage.
In contrast, in other instances, Rabbit is deeply invested in upholding 
white supremacy. A subtext of the movie is Rabbit's need to protect white, 
female sexuality. For example, he savagely beats up a Black man whom he 
catches having sex with his white love interest, Alex. The movie also 
evokes the racist stereotype of the Black rapist who lusts after white 
flesh. We learn that a little girl was raped in one of the many abandoned 
buildings on 8 Mile by a Black man. Rabbit is finally convinced by his 
friends that they should burn down this building to prevent further such 
occurrences because it could have been his little sister Lily (named aptly 
for the white, virginal purity she represents).
In the movie's climax, Rabbit is back on stage at a rap competition, but 
this time he lets loose his incredible talent. All his Black opponents make 
reference to his whiteness, racism, and intrusion. In his victory rap, 
Rabbit claims his whiteness. He refuses to deny his identity and the guilt 
that the other rappers try to provoke. However, Rabbit goes on to "out" his 
archenemy, Papa Doc, as a privileged rich kid who went to a private school, 
as if to say that because he is from a trailer park and a "broken family" 
that he has a more legitimate claim to rap than this bourgeois Black man.
By the end of the movie, Rabbit forges his independence from the Black 
subculture he had penetrated into to go on to record his own demo without 
the help of the Black producers and promoters whom he had relied on thus 
far. As he walks off into the streets, we know he will fulfil his American 
Dream. His white privilege will enable him to outdo the Black community he 
learned his trade from.
Like the real-life Eminem, Rabbit's intensity and sharp lyrics set him 
apart from white rappers like Vanilla Ice, whom he is disparagingly likened 
to by 

Harvey wallbangers orgasm's.

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
Recently, people from around the country met in Phoenix, Arizona to discuss 
the creation of an organization around the "Bring the Ruckus" draft 
proposal that was distributed nearly two years ago 
(http://www.illegalvoices.org/ruckus). The meeting drew folks from places 
like Atlanta, Los Angeles, Portland, Washington, D.C., and Massachusetts. 
The purpose of the meeting was to lay the groundwork for a new 
revolutionary formation.
Over the past year, Bring the Ruckus (BTR) has built its current membership 
through discussion and debate over the draft proposal as well as through a 
"Fight the Power, Build the Power" speaking tour in the spring of 2002, 
which included Washington D.C. and the West Coast. Through developing 
interest via face-to-face interactions, we have managed to slowly build a 
presence in the cities represented at the meeting.
The meeting took place on November 9-10, 2002. The first day was committed 
to political discussion and the second day to building the organization. 
The meeting was made up of mostly men, though people of color and women 
were represented. There were several people from Phoenix, but 
representatives or entire collectives were present from various cities as well.
The political discussion encompassed everything from our individual 
politics and political work to our analysis of the world. Topics of 
discussion included the function of whiteness/race in American society 
today and its relation to class, settlerism/colonialism compared to the 
race traitor analysis, feminism/women's liberation, and 
intersectionality/avoiding laundry list approaches to oppression. We also 
discussed the significance of the creation of several new federation-type 
organizations around the country as well as the anti-globalization and 
anti-war movements.

The second day's discussions addressed the formation of an organization. It 
began with the participants confirming their political unity based on the 
previous day's discussions and figuring out where that discussion would 
lead us in regards to building the organization. Based on the first day's 
discussion, we established six criteria for political work within this new 
organization-in-formation. These criteria are:
·   It must address systems that attack working class people of color
By strategically focusing not only on the working class but also on people 
of color within this class, we ensure that our work is focused on those 
most impacted.
·   It must be consistent with a feminist praxis
Our politics must include a gender analysis and our practice must 
consistently challenge systems of patriarchy both in society and within the 
organization.
·   It must attack white supremacy
Undermining the system of white privilege challenges one of the greatest 
barriers to revolutionary consciousness among the working class.
·   It must have the potential to build a dual power
Our work must challenge state power or prefigure a challenge to state 
power, it must pose a revolutionary or potentially revolutionary challenge 
to that power, and it must prefigure a new society in some small way
·   It must have the potential to further the development of 
revolutionary consciousness among the working class
We will measure success by the impact on consciousnesses on the people we 
work with. We will work for the greatest amount of awareness of 
capitalism's contradictions among the greatest number of people.
·   It should stretch the boundaries of political organizing
Rather than rely exclusively on the strategies and tactics of the past, we 
will encourage creative methods of resistance.
When discussing our political work, we found that a clear majority of us 
were doing work around police, prison and immigration issues. Further, we 
also agreed that these issues most closely fit the six criteria. We 
therefore agreed to focus on anti-police and anti-prison work, with the 
understanding that a) locals are free to develop their own strategies and 
ways of doing this work according to local conditions, as long as it's 
consistent with the six criteria; b) other kinds of work that fall outside 
of these two areas but meet the six criteria are also welcome; and c) these 
areas and the specific work we're doing within them are all subject to 
critique at the upcoming national meeting.
Once common criteria and work was hashed out, a basic structure for the 
group was agreed upon. It includes a coordinating committee, locals, and 
various work groups responsible for organizing the next meeting, putting 
together another tour, and editing the discussion bulletin. Once the 
committees were formed, the role of each was defined and their 
accountability to the larger group established. We then filled the 
committees with volunteers, except for the coordinating committee, which 
was nominated and chosen by the entire group. There was some concern as to 
what the committee should look like in terms of gender and race. We agreed

Brisbane Anarchist occupy a Nuclear facility

 posted by asger on Sunday January 05 2003 @ 10:49PM PST


  At 8am (Monday 6/1/03) protestors performing a media stunt (involving a 
dragon attacking actors dressed as nuclear technicians and security guards) 
outside the fences of the facility were let in by a lone security guard. As 
the 'Dragon' crossed the road, the single security guard unlocked the main 
gate.
Protestors assumed some agreement had been negotiated, and 20 people 
(including the corporate media) entered the grounds of Steritech's nuclear 
food irradiation site. Protestors continued their theatre performance, and 
then occupied the nuclear material containment pool room. At no time did 
the 'official' security make an attempt in either word or deed to stop them.

After half an hour the security guards locked the gates and refused to let 
out the remaining 15 people, until police arrived at about 9am. During that 
time some protesters got out by creating holes in the fence, or climbing 
over the fence. Police eventually allowed protestors the option of leaving, 
despite protestations of security guards who "wanted everyone to be arrested".

Six people climbed the walls of the containment area, hoisting flags and 
banners, and refused to leave. They made a statement to the effect that 
they were "community health and safety inspectors" and found the site to be 
"unsafe" and "insecure" and would occupy the site and reopen it as a 
Community centre for the Deception Bay youth (many of whom dirt-bike in the 
area). They observed that the formwork in the containment area walls was 
already cracked to the ground. The containment pool's integrity is 
paramount to the prevention of radiation leakages into the environment. The 
pool is ten metres deep and may often fall within the water table, as the 
construction is sited on the edge of a paperbark wetland which feeds 
directly into Moreton Bay.

A stand off with police ensued until the Tactical Response Unit (qld's riot 
police) were called in about midday to remove protestors from the premises. 
(No further details of this are avaiable yet, check 
www.brisbane.indymedia.org.au for updates.)

The successful action of activists calls into serious question the claims 
by the Steritech Corporation that the facility will be 'safe' and 'secure'.

ALF press release.

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
North American Animal Liberation Front Press Office ALF Spokesperson Steps 
Down, Encourages Others To Step Forward
The following is the final communication from (former) ALF spokesperson 
David Barbarash:
Effective immediately, I am resigning my position as North American 
spokesperson for the Animal Liberation Front and ending my tenure with the 
ALF Press Office.
I have held this voluntary position since the summer of 1999, and after 
three and a half years I've come to some conclusions and perspective about 
the work and role of a public spokesperson.
I have enjoyed the work immensely, and it has been very rewarding to me 
personally, but I do believe that, overall, my position is not necessary 
for the furtherance of animal liberation. In fact, in some cases, I believe 
that it is detrimental to the overall movement forward.
Too many times I have not been able to convey the message that needs to be 
heard - the suffering of animals, our collective responsibility to end this 
suffering and the animal carnage which continues seemingly unabated. Too 
often I have not been given the space in the media to explain why it is 
that the ALF take the action that it does, and the underlying reasons why 
people would want to risk their freedom to save animal lives. Too often the 
story has been about me, about the "person behind the Press Office," the 
only public face of the underground movement.
Granted, I can understand the interest in such a story, but this is not 
what the Press Office or my role was established for.
I now believe that there is no real need for an "official" public face to 
represent the Animal Liberation Front. The ALF will continue to take direct 
action long as long as there remains animal suffering, torture, and murder, 
regardless if a public spokesperson exists. A public spokesperson does not 
encourage more ALF action; continued animal abuse is the driving motivation.
I also believe that the existance of an ALF Press Office and a media 
spokesperson give reason for other groups and individuals to NOT speak up 
in support of the underground movement. My role has allowed others to step 
aside and not take a positive public stand on illegal non-violent direct 
action.
To those in the animal rights/liberation movement who are surprised by my 
resignation or upset about the lack of a public voice for the ALF, I say 
this: Now is your opportunity to step forward! Now is the time for your 
local animal rights group to put out a press release in support of the ALF 
when they next strike in your area. Now is the time for you and your 
friends to organize and garner public support for the ALF when next they 
raid that fur farm in your town or state, or destroy those meat trucks at 
the local slaughterhouse, or paint slogans on the neighbourhood fast food 
outlet.
Now is *your* time, Animal Rights Person/Animal Rights Group! Let's face 
it: A few dozen public spokespeople across the continent, all speaking up 
in support of the ALF is a much better situation than that one public face 
you see and hear about all the time. The story isn't about me, it's about 
the animals, and the brave people who risk everything to save them. My 
resignation is a step toward re-focussing the media away from a persona, 
and toward the real issues of animal exploitation, by removing the one 
story they love to persue: the media guy.
And it is an opportunity for the animal rights movement to step up the 
fight and play a more critical role in this struggle.
Although I am resigning my position as public spokesperson, the ALF Press 
Office will still exist and will be run by several anonymous people. The 
Press Office will still be a recipient of anonymous communiques from the 
ALF underground, and the Press Office volunteers will continue to send out 
those communications to the media.
The primary delivery service that the ALF Press Office will now be 
utiliziing is the Animal Liberation Frontline Information Service email 
list. I strongly encourage reporters, editors, and all media to subscribe 
to this service, which is also the primary method of press release delivery 
by the Earth Liberation Front Press Office.
To subscribe simply go to http://www.waste.org/mail/?list=frontline-news 
and subscribe your email address.
Effective immediately, the ALF Press Office can now be contacted at 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Emails sent to our old address will be forwarded on for 
a short time until the account is permanently closed. There is now no 
telephone contact for the ALF Press Office. All phone lines have been 
disconnected. The mailing address post office box will remain open for now, 
until other arrangements are made.
On a final note, donations to the ALF Press Office are still gratefully 
accepted by the people who will now take on the responsibility. As well, 
donations to help cover the cost of legal expenses incurred in my fight to 
retrieve the property seized by the recently-determined illegal RCMP search

The Tel Aviv suicide bombing and illegal foreign workers
By Jaggi Singh
Dispatch from East Jerusalem, for No One Is Illegal - January 6, 2002
[The following dispatch was prepared for members of the No One Is Illegal 
campaign in Montreal. The No One Is Illegal campaign confronts and 
challenges the Canadian state and its racist policies against immigrants, 
refugees and indigenous peoples, and works in solidarity with similar 
efforts worldwide. For more information e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] For 
previous reports from Palestine, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] ]
[East Jerusalem, January 6, 2002] -- The double suicide bombing at the 
Central bus station in Tel Aviv yesterday evening is dominating headlines 
internationally. The attack resulted in at least 23 deaths, and over 100 
injured, many very seriously.
Israel's predictable response is to tighten the military occupation over 
Palestinians, meaning more restrictions on movement, more curfews, more 
checkpoints, more humiliating searches, more military incursions, and the 
closing of at least three universities, including Al-Najah University in 
Nablus.
Targeted assassinations, home occupations and house demolitions are sure to 
follow within the next hours and days, as will Palestinian civilian deaths. 
Just in the limited period between December 26, 2002-January 1, 2003, 15 
Palestinian civilians were killed by Israeli Occupation Forces, including 5 
children (according to the Palestinian Center for Human Rights).
And just as surely as Israel will increase its attacks in the occupied 
territories, more suicide attacks against civilians in Israel will follow, 
as the logic of collective punishment that Israel applies to Palestinian 
civilians is returned in kind by the members of various militant groups, 
both secular and Islamic, who all rushed to take credit for the latest 
terror attack.
At least six of the people killed in Tel Aviv, and a large proportion of 
the injured, were foreign workers, many of whom live and work in Israel 
illegally. The bombings occurred in a district of south Tel Aviv with a 
large concentration of foreigners (there are 80,000 foreign workers in Tel 
Aviv alone). Migrant labor in Israel comes mainly from Africa, Eastern 
Europe, Turkey, Southeast Asia (predominantly Thailand and the 
Philippines), China, Latin America as well as Palestine.
Many of the foreign worker victims and their relatives have been reluctant 
to seek medical help, or to inquire about their friends and relatives. 
According to the Jerusalem Post, a hospital spokesman at the Ichilov 
Hospital in Tel Aviv said that "many of the wounded were refusing to 
identify themselves for fear of deportation, and that some had been left at 
the hospital's doorstep by friends who hastily quit the area."
In response, Israel's Interior Minister publicly announced that no 
deportation proceedings would be launched against foreigners who were 
wounded. Israeli TV news broadcasts, normally in Hebrew, included police 
appeals in English to foreign workers to seek medical help without fear of 
deportation. And the PR-savvy Israeli Foreign Minister, Binyamin Netanyahu, 
will be visiting the foreign worker victims in hospital.
The immediate Israeli government response to the situation of foreign 
workers as suicide attack victims belies the day-to-day treatment of 
foreign workers here, when they're not sympathetic "Palestinian terror" 
victims like other Israelis, but just cheap labor. For the last year, 
foreign workers have been a convenient scapegoat for an Ariel Sharon 
government that needs lots of scapegoats.
The year 2002 was Israel's worst economic performance -- with negative 
growth -- since the formation of the state in 1948. High unemployment has 
been blamed, in racist fashion, on the influx of foreign labor.
Adam Baruch, writing in the Israeli newspaper Ma'ariv this past November, 
described the campaign against foreigners as an atrocity. In his words:
"The propaganda of the immigration police against the foreign workers is 
developing into a cultural, humane and political atrocity. The television 
broadcast against foreigners is becoming more and more violent. The foreign 
workers are presented as "people enemies". Their humanity is transparent, 
non-existent. The fact that the Israelis "imported them" and is taking 
advantage of them is being denied. The propaganda incite the unemployed to 
act against the foreign worker. The propaganda presents those who employ 
foreign workers as "traitors". If you insert the word "Jew" instead of 
"foreign worker" in this propaganda - you will get anti-Semitism."
In a speech on unemployment last January, the Israeli Minister of Social 
and Labour Affairs, Shlomo Benizri, said: "The main problem we are dealing 
with right now is reducing our dependence on foreign workers ... It is 
shameful that Israel is number two on the list of [Western] countries with 
the highest proportions of foreign workers." [Foreign workers account for 

Anarcho-feminism.

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
The following is the text of an anarcha-feminist manifesto from around 
1971, reprinted in a pamphlet called Quiet Rumours:
Blood Of The Flower: An Anarchist-Feminist Statement
We are an independent collective of women who feel that anarchism is the 
logically consistent expression of feminism.
We believe that each woman is the only legitimate articulator of her own 
oppression. Any woman, regardless of previous political involvement knows 
only too intimately her own oppression, and hence, can and must define what 
form her liberation will take.
Why are many women sick and tired of 'movements'? Our answer is that the 
fault lies with the nature of movements, not with the individual women. 
Political movements, as we have known them, have separated our political 
activities from our personal dreams of liberation, until either we are made 
to abandon our dreams as impossible or we are forced to drop out of the 
movement because we hold steadfastly to our dreams. As true anarchists and 
as true feminists, we say dare to dream the impossible, and never settle 
for less than total translation of the impossible into reality.
There have been two principle forms of action in the women's liberation 
movement. One has been the small, local, volitionally organised 
consciousness-raising group, which at best has been a very meaningful mode 
of dealing with oppression from a personal level and, at worst, never 
evolved beyond the level of a therapy group.
The other principle mode of participation has been large, bureaucratised 
groups which have focused their activities along specific policy lines, 
taking great pains to translate women's oppression into concrete, 
single-issue programmes. Women in this type of group often have been 
involved in formal leftist politics for some time, but could not stomach 
the sexism within other leftist groups. However, after reacting against the 
above-mentioned attitude of leftist males, many women with formal political 
orientations could not accept the validity of what they felt were the 
'therapy groups' of their suburban sisters; yet they themselves still 
remained within the realm of male-originated Marxist-Leninist, Trotskyist, 
Maoist rhetoric, and continued to use forms of political organisation 
employed by the male leftist groups they were reacting against. The elitism 
and centralisation of the old male left thereby has found, and already 
poisoned parts of the women's movement with the attitude that political 
sophistication must mean 'building' a movement around single issue 
programmes, thereby implying that 'we must be patient until the masses' 
consciousness is raised to our level.' How condescending to assume that an 
oppressed person must be told that she is oppressed! How condescending to 
assume that her consciousness will grow only by plodding along, from 
single-issue to next single issue.
In the past decade or more, women of the left were consistently intimidated 
out of fighting for our own liberation, avoiding the obvious fact that all 
women are an oppressed group. We are so numerous and dispersed that we have 
identified ourselves erroneously as members of particular classes on the 
basis of the class of 'our men', our fathers or our husbands. So women of 
the left regarding ourselves as middle-class more than oppressed women, 
have been led to neglect engaging in our own struggle as our primary 
struggle. Instead, we have dedicated ourselves to fight on behalf of other 
oppressed peoples, thus alienating ourselves from our own plight. Many say 
that this attitude no longer exists in the women's movement, that it 
originated only from the guilt trip of the white middle class male, but 
even today women in autonomous women's movements speak of the need to 
organise working class women, without concentrating on the need to organise 
ourselves - as if we were already beyond that level. This does not mean (if 
we insist first and foremost on freeing ourselves) that we love our 
oppressed sisters any the less; on the contrary, we feel that the best way 
for us to be true to all liberation struggles is to accept and deal 
directly with our own oppression.
Why Anarchism?
We do not believe that rejection of Marxist-Leninist analysis and strategy 
is by definition political naiveté. We do not believe it is politically 
naive to maintain the attitude that even a 'democratically centralised' 
group could be considered the 'vanguard' spokeswoman for us. The nature of 
groups concerned with 'building' movements is: 1) to water down the 'more 
extreme' dreams into 'realistic' demands, and 2) to eventually become an 
organ of tyranny itself. No thanks!
There is another entire radical tradition which has run counter to 
Marxist-Leninist theory and practice through all of modern radical history 
- from Bakunin to Kropotkin to Sophie Perovskaya to Emma Goldman to Errico 
Malatesta to Murray Bookchin - and that is Anarchism. It is a tradition 
less familiar to most radicals

Direct Action: Memoirs of an Urban Guerrilla
Reviewed by Jonathan Slyk
Direct Action: Memoirs of an Urban Guerrilla by Ann Hansen (Between the 
Lines, 720 Bathurst St, Suite 404, Toronto, Ontario, M5S 2R4, Canada, 
www.btlbooks.com; and AK Press, 674-A 23rd St, Oakland, CA 94612-1163, & 
POB 12766, Edinburgh, EH8 9YE, Scotland, www.akpress.org; 2001) 493 pp. 
$19.95 paper.
From the opening pages describing the spectacular arrest on a winding 
mountain highway to the finely-grained portraits of daily existence within 
the claustrophobic world of underground sabotage, this sprawling adventure 
reads at times so much like a plot lifted from an espionage thriller that 
it’s hard to imagine such remarkable events occurring in a young, white, 
idealistic woman’s life. But for the author, living the dream as an urban 
guerrilla was anything but glamorous, even though there were occasional 
thrills and moments of triumph.
In the early 1980s, Ann Hansen was part of a west coast anarchist group 
that would go on to engage in the most notorious anti-authoritarian armed 
resistance in Canadian history. Calling itself Direct Action, the 
five-member cell began a D.I.Y. lifestyle that included shoplifting, 
dumpster diving and auto theft before stepping up to what culminated in the 
bombings of both a B.C. Hydro substation on Vancouver Island and a cruise 
missile guidance system manufacturing plant in Toronto. This was back in 
the days when direct action meant something more than giant street puppets 
or going limp at demos. A time when punk, peace, anti-nuclear and 
environmental protests all converged in a way not dissimilar to today’s 
anti-globalization movement. The exploits of Hansen, Brent Taylor, Doug 
Stewart, Gerry Hannah and Julie Belmas, later dubbed "The Squamish Five" by 
the media (after the nearby logging town where they were eventually 
arrested), reached national cult status by the time of their capture and 
subsequent trial, but within a few short years had receded into relative 
obscurity. All received lengthy prison sentences. Hansen, the eldest, got 
life and did seven years of hard time before being paroled.
Expecting a tough-talking, streetwise ex-con, I was somewhat surprised to 
hear a warm voice sounding like a children’s librarian on the other end of 
the phone. "What do you think of the cover?" she asked me nervously. "Do 
you think it’s, you know, too similar to those planes and buildings in New 
York?" As fate would have it, the first copies of Direct Action landed on 
the Toronto publisher’s desk the morning of September 11. Not surprisingly, 
the book’s release was delayed for a month. Also previously receiving the 
manuscript were three of the other four former members—who gave their 
approval. Hysteria over terrorism and the current fear surrounding dissent 
have kept publicity and speaking engagements low profile.
Several weeks after our initial conversation, at an all-day grill in 
downtown Vancouver, Ann Hansen and I are wolfing down breakfast and talking 
about politics, running a small business and the book that finally spells 
out what really happened all those years ago. Hansen, who by law cannot 
receive money from the book, says the writing experience was cathartic. 
"When I got out of prison, my whole political identity was disintegrated. 
It took me ten years just to recover emotionally. It was only after my 
cabinetmaking business ended, when I was mentally more free, that I started 
to think about that period in my life again." The memoir, she says, was 
intended as both an historical document and a cautionary tale for would-be 
guerrillas. Yet it can also serve as a basis for discussion around tactics 
(which are explicitly detailed), since it highlights the uneasy 
relationship between pacifists and more militant activists and discloses 
some of the righteous condemnation that often divides the wider milieu in 
general.
The sense of time and place in British Columbia are accurately conveyed, as 
is most of the political dialogue, reflecting a local anarchist scene that 
was strongly influenced by eco-feminism. Direct Action’s critique of 
civilization was at least as sophisticated as any other of the time, which, 
considering it was largely an intuitive grasp of Leviathan by individuals 
in their early twenties, and Perlman’s classic work Against His-Story had 
yet to come out, is a tribute to their nascent understanding. Access to 
thousands of pages of police wiretap and bug surveillance transcripts 
allowed Hansen to literally recreate verbatim much of the psycho-dynamics 
among the group members, producing a slice of reality that is dramatic 
without being maudlin. And the narrative device of interspersing the cops’ 
perspectives, whose characters are fictionalized, helps to heighten the 
sense of jeopardy. My only problem with the book is it seems overly 
drawn-out with the entire last quarter devoted to preparation for a Brink’s 
robbery, and no less than three p

Anarchist groups have been formed in South Africa, Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Zambia, and elsewhere.

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
South Africa's pioneer anarchist was Henry Glasse, an English immigrant 
anarchist who had translated several of Kropotkin's works into English. But 
it was in the 1910s that Anarcho-Syndicalism came to be a force worth 
reckoning with. A group emerged around the weekly, the Voice of Labour, 
South Africa's first socialist newspaper, which went on to found the 
Industrial Workers of the World in Johannesburg in 1910. A second 
IWW-linked group, the Socialist Labour Party, aligned with the "political" 
IWW in the United States, was also formed at this time. Later IWW-aligned 
organisations such as the International Socialist League, founded in 
Johannesburg in 1915, and the Industrial Socialist League, founded in Cape 
Town in 1918, played a pioneering role in early black trade unionism.
Repression, the formation of the Communist Party of South Africa in 1921, 
and purges in the Party in the late 1920s ended the early anarchist 
movement in South Africa. It is only within the last few years that 
revolutionary class struggle Anarchism and Anarcho-Syndicalism have 
re-emerged in Africa. Anarchist groups have been formed in South Africa, 
Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Zambia, and elsewhere, to fight for a free and 
equal, classless society.
Unfortunately, because of the repression of anarchism, none of these 
pamphlets are written in the indigenous languages of Africa and, as yet, 
none have been translated. Any volunteers please e-mail us (just click on

Huntingdon's.

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X


Another victory against HLS! -- Urgent action needed to maintain pressure!

From the open publishing newswire: An amazing turn of events have unfolded 
over the last 24 hours. On Monday morning HLS press released that 
vivisection guru Kirby Lee Cramer and university professor John Caldwell 
resigned themselves from Huntingdon's board of directors. This public 
abandonment leaves Huntingdon with a huge gaping wound, as these two 
individuals were all that gave the board its scientific and business 
credibility.

These are the two main directors animal rights activists have been 
targeting in the UK and the US. Kirby Lee Cramer has had his home address 
and phone number widely published, and the other companies he sits on the 
boards of have been under attack (weakening his position there.) This 
summer, as SHAC announced this new area of activism, an ultimatum was given 
to Kirby to choose between being welcome at all the other companies he sits 
on the boards of, or just stick with Huntingdon. Mr. Cramer choose wisely.

The loss of these two individuals is the clearest indication yet that even 
those within Huntingdon admit it is a dying enterprise. They have chosen 
not to go down with the ship.

As if this wasn't bad enough -

HLS'S NEW DIRECTOR IS A SHAM!

Mr. Muhammed Faruque is a 73 year-old business man from Karachi, Pakistan. 
He runs a family company that makes cement, sugar, and paper products. He 
has nothing to do with the pharmaceutical industry, and is reported to be 
making no financial investment in the lab.

It also has been reported that he has a great deal of trepidation about 
joining the board concerning the animal rights threat he may face.

Sounds like he needs some convincing!

Solidarity and Responsibility: Fighting to win against capitalism and 
oppression.
By Gary Kinsman
Many activists involved in fighting racism, sexism, heterosexism, and other 
forms of oppression have been told by other leftists (often but not always 
white, heterosexual men) that these are not as important as the "central" 
class struggles they support. They may even view our struggles as 
diversionary or divisive. I remember being told this many times in the 
1970s and 1980s as a gay liberation and socialist activist.
By "class struggle" they seem to mean only the unions and the point of 
production -- offices and factories. While this is a very important front 
of struggle, it is only one arena of working class life and even here race, 
gender and sexuality are central aspects of the organization of workplaces 
and of exploitation. For some who argue this narrow view of class it is as 
if there is a working class that does not have a home, community and sexual 
life – as if working class experience does not centrally include the 
relations of domestic labour, the reproduction of our capacities to labour, 
poverty, unemployment, immigration, race and racism, sexuality and 
pleasure. As many have pointed out, you cannot possibly think and act 
politically about class relations in Canada without seeing their racialized 
and gendered character. The narrow notion of "class politics" still common 
in some parts of the left is not an adequate "class politics" at all.
This view abstracts the working class away from the racism and the gender 
and sexual oppressions that are actually key to defining what class 
relations and struggles are all about. This empty abstraction is then used 
to construct a "false universal" image of the working class as white and 
mostly male and heterosexual. This false image of the working class can 
foster divisions in working class struggles when racism, sexism and 
heterosexism are not centrally addressed. The experience of class is never 
an abstraction – it is a social relation between people. It is always lived 
in relation to gender, race, sexuality, age, ability, language, nation and 
other relations.
Successful struggles to undo these forms of oppression and exploitation 
must recognize their intertwined character. This is why an anti-racist, 
feminist, class politics that addresses all forms of oppression is needed 
in today's organizing.
I examine these questions in the context of the Fighting to Win perspective 
developed by the Ontario Coalition Against Poverty (OCAP) which is about 
moving beyond token or symbolic forms of protest to developing our own 
forms of power and wining victories through our own struggles.
Autonomy and Interdependence
When it comes to oppression and capitalism we need to recognize the 
specificity of each form of oppression which creates the basis for 
autonomous struggles against racism, sexism, heterosexism and other forms 
of oppression. Oppressed people need to build their own power against the 
forms of oppression they face. At the same time autonomy on its own is not 
enough.
This is because all of these forms of oppression are constructed in and 
through each other and in and through the relations of capitalism. This is 
why we need to bring our various struggles together to build a broader 
counter-power to that of the capitalists and their state relations. 
Capitalism in a concrete historical sense is racist and sexist. Fighting 
racism can be fighting capitalism and fighting sexism can be fighting 
capitalism. The fight against capitalism is thereby enriched by seeing how 
central fighting gender and racial oppression, for instance, is to 
developing a radical anti-capitalist politics. So we need to recognize the 
need both for autonomous and united struggles and for building a solidarity 
that learns from and builds upon the autonomy of the various struggles of 
the oppressed and exploited.
Solidarity yes, but solidarity on whose terms?
In recent years, given the growth of our movements against oppression, some 
of the arguments against taking up the struggles of the oppressed are made 
in a more subtle fashion. One variant is that in the name of solidarity 
against a common enemy – whether it be the Harris government in Ontario or 
the struggle against the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) – we should 
not raise our specific concerns and demands around racism, sexism, 
sexuality and other struggles. We should instead, it is argued, unite 
against our common enemy with the hope that after this enemy is defeated 
that somehow our needs will get addressed. This boils down to an 
unacceptable argument for the postponement of our struggles against 
oppression, as well as not seeing how central oppressed people's needs are 
to battles against the Harris government and capitalist globalization. This 
raises important questions about solidarity in our struggles.
Solidarity is central to Fighting to Win as OCAP has stressed. But we

LA Jan 11.

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
THE protest for the anti war ceremonies was outstanding. Solidarity was the 
key. From my best judgement there was about 15-20 thousand people out in 
the streets with signs, drums, and respect for all. The LA anarchists came 
out, but i was disappointed by the number. I think there were 150-200 
freedom fighters in black. Everyone was on their best behavior and there 
was no damage or arrests. I would set the number of police involved was 
around 3-400 coppers. That means if the oinks make 25 bucks an hour---then 
it was a waste of (min figure) $10,000 per hour. WHAT A WASTE!!! This crowd 
was very enthusiastic and was much more of a "mix" than typical protests. 
ALSO, Saul Williams recited spoken word, and the Ron Kovic led the march. 
There was also a band playing that included "slash" from Gn'R. THE PEOPLE 
ARE MOBILIZING.

Indonesia.

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
After a wave of militant protests and direct action from students and 
unions in Indonesia, the government there has said that it will reconsider 
its plans to pay off IMF/WB debts by raising the prices of fuel oil, 
electricity, and telephone service.
The effects of these price hikes were mostly shouldered by the poor. The 
fuel oil hikes have been devastating to Indonesia's rural communities, who 
depend on kerosene for cooking, as well as fuel for farm machinery. The 
cost to Indonesian's urban population has been just as great, with the 
newly impoverished forced to depend on government handouts of rice to eat. 
Those handouts are handled by the Bureau of Logistics (Bulog), widely seen 
as corrupt in the wake of scandals in the wake of failed disaster relief 
efforts.
The protests in Indonesia have been an embarassment to the regime of 
President Megawati, whose Nationalist party was elected after a similar 
wave of protests forced out her three predecessors, former dictator 
Suharto, his immediate successor B.J. Habibe, and moderate Muslim cleric 
Abdurrahman Wahid.
Protests in cities on the island of Sulawesi, including the commandeering 
of fuel trucks in Makassar and the stoning of the Nationalist headquarters 
in Palu, forced Megawati to cancel visits there. Additionally, student 
protests outside the presidential palace were stopped just short of siege.
The protests started just after the announcement of the price hikes, and 
are taking place as IMF technocrats visit the country to rate Indonesia's 
"progress" with structural reforms.
The protests have caused a split in the president's party, and as a result 
the government announced on 15 January that it would delay hiking telephone 
costs, and would also reconsider the fuel oil and electricity hikes.
The government hopes that this will cool off students and labor militants, 
who have demanded the resignation of the president and vice president. 
Establishment politicians have been raising concerns over this talk, 
especially ahead of Indonesian elections in 2004.
Those elections will be the first under Indonesia's new Constitution, which 
was revised to eliminate set-aside seats for the military (a base of 
support for Suharto's Golkar Party) as well as the direct election of the 
president.

  [ The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: 01/16/03]
INS expands reach of registration rules

Deadline Feb. 7 for men of largely Muslim nations

By MARK BIXLER
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

The U.S. Department of Justice is expanding a controversial initiative that 
requires men from several largely Muslim nations to be fingerprinted, 
photographed and interviewed by the Immigration and Naturalization Service.

Students, tourists and businessmen from Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, 
Jordan and Kuwait will join visa holders from 20 other countries required 
to register, according to documents to be published today in the Federal 
Register.

The government also is giving a second chance to foreign nationals, mainly 
from the Middle East, who missed recent deadlines to register.

The Justice Department required male students, tourists and businessmen 
from five Muslim countries to register by Dec. 16.

It set a Jan. 10 deadline for men from 13 other mostly Muslim nations, but 
advocates said the government did little to publicize the requirement.

"At least 60 percent of the people didn't know," said Akeel Hanano, 
president of the Georgia chapter of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination 
Committee.

The documents say those who missed the deadlines can register without 
penalty at INS offices nationwide from Jan. 27 to Feb. 7. Visa holders must 
register if they arrived on or before Sept. 30 from Afghanistan, Algeria, 
Bahrain, Eritrea, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, North Korea, Oman, 
Qatar, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates or Yemen. The 
documents refer to "an act of grace" for people who "remained unaware of 
the requirements."

In Georgia, Hanano tried to spread the word by posting fliers at mosques. 
Foreign-student advisers such as Doug Podoll of Georgia State University 
sent e-mails and letters.

The government says its Special Registration initiative will ensure 
compliance with visas and "identify wanted criminals and known terrorists," 
but Juliette Kayyem, a Harvard University terrorism expert, said it 
"satisfies no national security interest."

At least 500 foreign nationals in California and a handful in Georgia and 
other states were detained while registering, mainly for immigration 
violations. They may be deported.

Meanwhile, a Feb. 21 deadline looms for visa holders from Pakistan and 
Saudi Arabia.

An anarchist journalist with the DC Independent Media Center talked to 
local INS officials on Tuesday and found out that the plan is to screen all 
male foreign nationals (including those from Europe, Asia, South America, 
etc.) within the next two to three years. There is also a lot of resentment

Pittsburgh Convergence.

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
War is not the Answer
The upcoming Regional Antiwar Convergence may be the biggest protest 
Pittsburgh has seen in 30 years. In a round-table conversation, some local 
activists talk about dissent and street-level action
-- INTERVIEW BY GEOFF KELLY (Pulp)
"All that one can say is that if we act as if peace were necessary and 
possible, we are more likely to achieve it than if we don't."
-- Sir Michael Howard
In his book The Invention of Peace, the British military historian Sir 
Michael Howard suggests that peace is much more complicated and 
high-maintenance than war -- which may be why it breaks down all the time. 
"Peace is not a natural state of society," he writes, "any more than war is 
a natural state of society. Conflict is what is endemic and, if you like, 
is natural. There is only going to be peace if those conflicts can be 
managed and subsumed. That is what peacemaking is really all about."
Precisely how to manage and subsume conflict is a sticky problem, difficult 
in one's daily life, let alone on a global scale. The important thing, 
according to Howard, is simply to try.
The antiwar movement in this country is a chimera because it is presented 
in the media incompletely, in fits and starts, viewed from a distance with 
misunderstanding and sometimes -- especially on the brink of war, when its 
counterpoint to what passes for prevailing opinion is most needed -- with 
mistrust. Only when tens of thousands of dissenters converge and take to 
the streets, as they did famously in Seattle in 1999 and last October in 
Washington, D.C., does the substance and scope of the country's activist 
community compel people to take notice.
But, of course, activism on behalf of peace and social justice does not 
begin or end at mass demonstrations. "When people get to the street, it's 
almost always not the first option," says Tim Vining, executive director of 
Pittsburgh's Thomas Merton Center, an organization that tackles a wide 
array of social issues. "I mean, people think that we read the paper at the 
Merton Center and we say, 'Okay, let's go have a protest.' That's a lot of 
work."
Vining has been hard at work in recent months, along with dozens of 
activists from Pittsburgh's numerous progressive organizations, planning 
the Pittsburgh Regional Antiwar Convergence. Between January 24 and January 
26, organizers expect thousands of dissenters to take to the streets in 
protest of the George W. Bush administration's escalation of military 
action against Iraq. Protesters are expected to gather from all directions; 
no doubt the January 18 antiwar march in Washington, D.C. will feed the 
ranks. The Convergence's organizers promise that it will be the largest 
antiwar protest Pittsburgh has seen in at least 30 years.
Pulp invited a number of local activists to meet at the Thomas Merton 
Center's Bloomfield office for a round-table discussion on the nature of 
activism, the current climate for dissent and next weekend's Convergence. 
Taking part were Vining; Edith Bell, a board member at the Merton Center 
and a member of the Raging Grannies; veteran activist Vincent Scotti Eirene 
of the Duncan and Porter House; Saleh Waziruddin of Zi Activism, who was 
recently called one of 10 young Pittsburghers to watch by Pittsburgh 
magazine; Toni Bartone of the Pittsburgh Organizing Group, whose members 
are integral in planning the Convergence; and Maura Jacob and Claire 
Schoyer of Pittsburgh Association of Peacemakers and Proactive Youth, an 
organization linking high-school activists across the city.
What follows is excerpted from that conversation, which touched on 
everything from organizing techniques, the nature of nonviolence in a 
violent world and the definition of "idiot savant." While we talked, Edith 
Bell made bandages for protesters who might be injured in confrontations 
with authorities during the Convergence.
Does street-level action promote dialogue and compromise or does it 
polarize people, push them into extreme positions?
EIRENE: I think the street stuff is absolutely important because it's 
making the invisible dissent visible. It also breaks up the false 
unanimity, the illusion that somehow everyone is going along with this. If 
it alienates people -- well, it's sort of like in a romantic relationship: 
Things have to fall apart before they can come together.
BELL: If it wouldn't have been for the street protests during the Viet Nam 
era, that war would have gone on and on and on. That helped to turn it. And 
right now, you see all these polls that have been taken -- 70 percent of 
the people are with the president? When you talk to people, nobody is. I 
don't know where they take these polls. And the media doesn't cover it, so 
unless we go into the streets and make a big brouhaha, the media is not 
going to cover our phone calls and the letters we write in protest.
VINING: When people get to the street, it's almost always not the first 
option. That happens when we see the system not

Greek resistance.

Hello comrades,
After a series of summits all around Europe, the EU bosses come to visit 
their partners in Greece and make decisions for us - without us. We 
announce that they will find us on their every step in our cities. We gonna 
be present wherever they go, and we gonna be by the side of the workers and 
the common people who resist in any possible way to the brutal capitalist 
globalisation.
Because of that, some of the anti-authoritarians and anarchists (both 
groups and individuals) in Greece decided to create the "Anti-authoritarian 
Movement Salonika 2003" in order to organise our resistance against the 
plans of the local and global bosses.
The first unofficial summit in Greece is taking place in the city of 
Nafplion at 24/01 and the subject of the summit is going to be about the 
working conditions and unemployment. We gonna be there to protest our 
opposition to the modern conditions of slavery.
Our website is www.resistance2003.gr , and the first information is in 
Greek and Spanish (there's gonna be English and German soon). For contact 
and more infos email us at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
We wish to listen opinions and suggestions from anyone interested in coming

Basic tactical training in urban warfare from UK facists in Kanada.

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
INFORMATION ABOUT CANADIAN SOLDIERS BEING TRAINED IN URBAN TACTICAL WARFARE 
BY THE U.K. MILITARY IN OUR NEIGHBOURHOOD STREETS!
...from Fredericton Residents for Education on the Economically-motivated 
Deployment Of the Military (F.R.E.E.D.O.M.)
In December, the 2nd Battalion of the Royal Canadian Regiment (2RCR - 
mechanized infantry) engaged in the largest live-ammunition combat exercise 
in the Commonwealth at CFB Gage town - half an hour outside of Fredericton, 
NB. The troops fired almost $5 million worth of munitions during the night 
time training. It is unknown if shells using depleted uranium were used.
Over the next six months, this group of unfortunate soldiers may be 
deployed anywhere in the world on behalf of a U.S.-led coalition within 72 
hours (Daily Gleaner, December 28, 2002). As part of the 2RCR preparation 
for battle, Canadian soldiers, instructed by the BRITISH MILITARY, are 
engaged in “basic tactical training in urban warfare” on the downtown 
streets of Fredericton (Telegraph Journal, January 9, 2003).
Overhead, military helicopters fly above Fredericton’s universities and 
residential neighbourhoods. The pilots fly low enough that their green 
camouflage bellies can be seen clearly from the ground. Armored vehicles, 
equipped with the latest military technology, travel on local highways with 
“student driver” signs displayed on the rear (Daily Gleaner, January 11, 
2003).
On February 18 and 19, 2RCR will participate in a “paper military exercise” 
during which soldiers will “study infrastructure and consider it in the 
context of a military operation” (Daily Gleaner, January 14, 2003). The 
Fredericton Mayor and City Council have already granted permission for this 
“special event” without consulting residents (on January 13). When 
F.R.E.E.D.O.M. called City Hall yesterday, we were told to contact CFB 
Gagetown for information. The City Hall clerk said they knew nothing beyond 
a nebulous, one-line statement. A transcription of the minutes from the 
last council meeting will not be available to the public until they are 
passed at the next council meeting. There will be a FULL GALLERY at the 
next open City Council meeting - with many more spilling outside. The mayor 
has some explaining to do!
WE WON’T ACCEPT OUR NEIGHBOURHOOD STREETS BEING USED TO TRAIN SOLDIERS FOR 
AN URBAN WAR WE DON’T CONDONE! WE WANT THE U.K. AND U.S. MILITARY PERSONNEL 
DEPORTED FROM OUR COMMUNITY!
On February 18 and 19, F.R.E.E.D.O.M. encourages all Fredericton and New 
Brunswick residents to walk through OUR STREETS with information pamphlets 
describing the very real threat of depleted uranium sickness (2000 of the 
4,500 soldiers who served in the previous Gulf War experienced severe 
sickness upon their return), the probability of many more Canadian 
‘friendly fire’ deaths (1/3 of U.S. coalition casualties in the previous 
Gulf War resulted from ‘friendly fire’) and the cruel injustice of 
continued U.S. aggression against Iraq.
We will do our best to educate these young and impressionable soldiers. 
Perhaps we can save their health, their lives and their consciences by 
convincing them to stay at home. Some residents may choose to carry pots 
and pans to make noise when they see U.S. or U.K. soldiers trying to 
instruct younger recruits in matters military. More creative, and equally 
legal, strategies to come. This is our community. These are our sidewalks.
In the meantime, please contact Fredericton Mayor Les Hull and other city 
council members. In your own words, explain why you, personally, feel it is 
unacceptable to use our community to train soldiers for a war we do not 
condone.

Dr. Richard Dafe
Branch Manager
EcoBank International.
Idumota Branch
Lagos Nigeria.


I am Dr. Richard Dafe The Branch Manager of EcoBank
International,Idumota Branch,Lagos Nigeria. I have an
urgent and very confidential business proposition for
you. On December, 1997, a Taiwanese Oil
consultant/contractor with the Nigerian National
Petroleum Corporation, Mr. Boris Chen made a numbered
time (Fixed) Deposit for Twenty-Four calendar months,
 valued at US$25,000,000.00 (Twenty- five Million
Dollars) in my branch.
 Upon  maturity, I sent a routine notification to his
forwarding address but got no reply.  After some
months, we sent a reminder and finally we 
discovered from his contract employers, the Nigerian
National Petroleum Corporation that Mr. Boris Chen
died from an airplane crash ( Singapore Airlines).

On further investigation, I found out that he died
without making a WILL,and all attempts to trace his
next of kin was fruitless. I therefore 
made further investigation and discovered that Mr.
Boris Chen did not declare any kin or relations in all
his official documents, including his Bank Deposit
paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$25,000,000.00 is
 still sitting in my Bank and the interest is being
rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each
year. No one has ever come forward to claim it.  

According to Nigerian Law, at the expiration of 5
(five) years, the money will revert to the ownership
of the Nigerian Government if nobody applies to claim
the fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I will
like you to stand in as the next of kin to Mr.Boris
Chen so that the fruits of this old man's labour will
not get into the hands of some corrupt government
 officials. This is simple, I will like you to provide
immediately your full names and address so that the
Attorney will prepare the necessary documents 
and affidavits which will put you in place as the next
of kin. We shall employ the services of two Attorney
for drafting and notarization of the WILL and to
 obtain the necessary documents and letter of
probate/administration in your favour for the
transfer.  A bank account in any part of the world
which you will provide will then facilitate the
transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next
of kin.  The money will be paid into your account for
us to share in the ratio of 70or me and 25or you
and 5%  be used in settling taxation and all local and
foreign expenses.There is no risk at all as all 
the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the
Attorney and my position as the Branch Manager
guarantees the successful execution of this
transaction.
 
If you are interested, please reply immediately via
the private email address below. Upon your response, I
shall then provide you with more details and relevant
 documents that will help you understand the
transaction.

Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest
assured that this transaction would be most profitable
for both of us because I shall require your assistance
to invest my share in your country. I can be reached
through this email address.

I do urgently await your response or reach me through
my confidential and private fax 234-9-272-1684.

Best regards,

Dr. Richard Dafe

Open Letter to all Members of the Canadian Armed Forces:

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
January, 2003 Friends,
As soldiers, you have sworn to protect Canada and Canadians, even at the 
risk of your own lives. Few occupations require such dedicated commitment 
and potential sacrifice, and we cannot help but feel in our hearts a touch 
of the fear and anxiety which must be facing you and your families.
But Canada and Canadians are not under threat from the people of Iraq, 
against whom a massive escalation of war is likely to be launched soon.
Most of the world is amazed that the U.S. is hellbent on war, desperately 
seeking a pretext, any pretext, no matter what the cost, no matter if there 
is no substantial reason offered. (Although the media only covers a small 
percentage of it, we're sure you are aware of the massive demonstrations 
against war across North America and Europe.)
To this moment, there has been not one shred of evidence of an Iraqi link 
to Osama bin Laden, not one shred of evidence that Iraq is planning a war 
of aggression against its neighbours, not one shred of evidence that Iraq 
has the current capacity to launch weapons of mass destruction.
This is not to defend in any way the brutal dictatorship of Saddam Hussein, 
but we need to ask ourselves why there is such a focus on Iraq when Canada, 
the U.S., and U.K. support dozens of similarly brutal regimes around the 
globe, all of which commit gross abuses of human rights. A cursory glance 
at the website of a reputable organization such as Amnesty International 
confirms this.
You likely have your own suspicions about this intentional war, which 
clearly seems more about gaining Western control over Iraq's huge oil 
reserves than unfounded allegations about weapons of mass destruction. 
Indeed, just look at the casual response to North Korea's nuclear weapons 
program, one far more advanced than anything Iraq possesses.
But you are probably not allowed to voice these concerns, because your duty 
is to follow orders.
It is in this context that we want to speak with you as fellow Canadians 
genuinely concerned about your safety as well as the welfare of the people 
who have the most to lose in this planned war: the people of Iraq, already 
suffering from the massive bombardment of 1991, from the deadly radioactive 
legacy of over 300 tonnes of depleted uranium dropped on that country, and 
the devastating sanctions which have claimed over a million lives.
Indeed, the Nobel Peace Prize-winning group International Physicians for 
the Prevention of Nuclear War estimates immediate casualties of a war 
against Iraq could number in excess of half a million people. This does not 
include the massive refugee crisis, famine, and environmental disaster that 
is likely to befall the region as well. Indeed, the United Nations 
estimates 10 million Iraqis could be put at risk of disease and hunger 
following an invasion, and failure to provide immediate assistance in such 
a situation would prove lethal.
It is in such troubled times that we are all faced with difficult choices. 
As soldiers, some of you have told us that yours is not to question but 
simply to serve, to serve those who send you overseas to fight.
But we believe at this crucial time that as soldiers, you DO have a choice: 
a choice to act morally, legally, safely, to avert the even greater 
humanitarian disaster that awaits the Iraqi people.
Quite simply, we are encouraging you to lay down your weapons and refuse to 
fight.
Under international and Canadian law, this is not only your right, it is 
also your obligation under the below-mentioned Nuremberg Principles.
And as law-abiding citizens, we have a responsibility and a commitment to 
support you in coming to and dealing with your decision not to fight.
If thousands of men and women like yourselves refused to fight, it would 
make current and future war plans difficult, if not impossible, to carry out.
We also write because you, like the veterans of the 1991 war against Iraq, 
will likely return home and receive little or no support or compensation 
whatsoever from the War Dept. in dealing with deadly Gulf War Syndrome 
(radioactive poisoning from exposure to depleted uranium) and Post 
Traumatic Stress Disorder (suffered by one-third of Gulf War vets)
The white men who send you to war (John McCallum, Bill Graham, and John 
Chretien, among others) will not be sharing with you some key information.
You have a right to know the following:
A. Like all wars, the escalation of the ongoing war against the Iraqi 
people is illegal. It violates some of the most basic precepts of 
international laws and treaties to which Canada is a party, including: *the 
Treaty Providing for the Renunciation of War as an Instrument of National 
Policy (aka Kellogg-Briand Pact, agreed to in 1928) * the Declaration of 
St. Petersburg (Declaration Renouncing the Use in Time of War of Explosive 
Projectiles Under 400 Grammes of Weight) * Resolution on the Non-Use of 
Force in International Relations and Permanent Prohibition on the Use of 
Nuc

Smart Cameras.

No policy toward anyone isn't possible once there's any kind of

countries with bad human rights records.  Osama Bin Laden might not

Baloney.  The terrorists have made it pretty clear what their gripe with 
the U.S. Government is, and it has nothing to do with trade, the 
American lifestyle, or the elusive freedoms that Americans supposedly 
enjoy.  It has everything to do with US troops stationed in nearly every 
country in the world (specifically, Saudi Arabia), meddling in Middle 
Eastern conflicts (the never-ending Israeli-Arab feud), and the steady 
stream of Arab corpses that Clinton and the Bushes have produced over 
the last ten years or so (thousands of Afghani civilians killed by US 
bombs in the last year or so; the bombing of Iraq that has stretch 
uninterrupted from the beginning of the Persian Gulf War to the present 
day).

Neutrality and noninterventionism work spectacularly well as a foreign 
policy. Just take a look at Switzerland: seven centuries of peace and 
freedom, with the exception of a few years
during the Napoleanic era, and never a problem with terrorists.

Even if we were just an economic giant with little foreign policy, 
we'd still have an impact by which countries we chose to trade with

How about "Friendship and free trade with all, entangling alliances with 
none," to quote Thomas Jefferson?  A trade policy that doesn't choose 
favorites avoids any problem of others wishing to influence U.S. trade 
policy.

Richard Stallman just passed this along to me.  I won't be around,
since I'll be in New York for LinuxWorld, but someone else might
want to organize a group of freedom-loving people to go and hand
out some anti-DMCA flyers, ask good questions, and so on.

"How can you enforce laws that ban Academic Freedom in computer
science and then walk into a university and ask for help?"

Remember, protests and demonstrations are GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH.

  COMPUTER SYSTEMS LABORATORY COLLOQUIUM 
 4:15PM, Wednesday, Jan 22, 2003 
   NEC Auditorium, Gates Computer Science Building B03   
   http://ee380.stanford.edu[1]  
 
Topic:Solving High Technology Crime
  Academic Partnership in Crime Fighting

Speaker:  Gregory S. Crabb
  United States Postal Inspector
  San Francisco Electronic Crimes Task Force

Other participants include:
Robert Rodriguez, Assistant Special Agent in Charge, United
States Secret Service
Richard Perlotto, Cisco Systems
Chris Lalone, Network Security, eBay
Mike Miravalle, CEO, Dolphin Technologies
Fred Demma, Dolphon Technologyies

About the talk:

The San Francisco Electronic Crimes Task Force seeks to engage
the academic community to help us address the technology crimes
affecting our community, our corporate partners and law
enforcement. The crimes affecting our corporate partners include
computer hacking, intellectual property crimes (criminal
trademark and copyright infringement) and identity theft. These
crimes are costing the high technology community billions of
dollars and stunting the acceptance and growth of these
technologies to support our economy. Antiquated investigative
methods and poor individual accountability for Internet
communications are some of the greatest challenges facing law
enforcement. The solution to some of these challenges may lie
within the academic community.

The talk will focus on several brief case studies relating our
greatest challenges in fighting high technology crime. Each case
study will be presented by a law enforcement agent and/or
corporate partner of the task force.

About the speaker:

The San Francisco Electronic Crimes Task Force is a group of
Federal, state, local investigators and corporate partners, lead
by the U.S. Secret Service, focused on attacking high technology
crime affecting Bay Area companies, locally and globally. The
task force is part of the Secret Service's nation-wide network of
electronic crimes task forces, see http://www.ectaskforce.org[2].

Hummm...kind of an odd argument, don't you think? Should it still be called

"Osama Bin Laden might not hate us, but *someone* would."

Well, perhaps we fucked with the wrong guy. In other words, its one thing to 
piss off a small number of people, but if you keep stomping around the globe 
screwing people over and spouting tired rhetoric, you're bound to attract 
the attention of someone with enough money, networks, determination and 
religious zealotry who makes it their mission in life to take you out. 
Perhaps its no big coincidence that OBL is Saudi and that we've supported 
and propped up the repressive Saudi regime for years. (He's also stated many 
times that one of his goals is to topple the corrupt Saudi regime and to 
remove American control.)

It's funny...but I think I just understood what "infidel" means...


 "Even if we were just an economic giant with little foreign policy, we'd 
still have an impact by which countries we chose to trade with, and if 
someone could improve their fortunes by several billion dollars a year by 
finding a few gullable guys to strap dynamite to themselves and blow up 
shopping malls and such, I'm sure they'd do just that."

Perhaps we should try it and see? Ah well. But remember, it just might be 
that OBL and Co are not just half a dozen guys in a Pakistani cave. Perhaps 
there are thousands who are almost equally angry, and every time the 
Israelis use one of our whiz-bangs to kill their kids, we add a few more to 
the roster of those willing to strap dynamite to themselves.


BTW...a Muslim co-worker sardonically stated recently that our new war with 
Iraq is just a way to show more smart missle "advertisements" to the petty 
dictators we peddle our stuff to.

Mrs. Roseline Coleman

2003-01-18 Thread mrsrocoleman


Dear friend,
 
I am Mrs. Roseline Coleman wife to the late Chife Paul Coleman from 
Sierra Leon. I am writing you in absolute confidence primarily to seek 
your assistance to transfer our cash of thirty  Million Dollars 
($30,000.000.00) now in the custody of a private Security trust firm in Europe 
the money is in trunk boxes
deposited and declared as Precious stones by my late Husband as a 
matter of fact the company does not know the content as money, although my 
husband made them to under stand that the boxes belongs to his foreign partner.Source of the money:
 
 My late Husband Chief Paul Coleman , a native of  Mende District in the Northerh province of Sierra Leone, was the General Manager of Sierra Leone Mining co-operation (S.L.M.C.) Freetown . According to my Husband, this money was the income accrued from Mining Co-operation's over draft and minor sales. 

Before the peak of the civil war between the rebels forces of Major Paul Koroma and the combined forces of ECOMOG peace keeping operation that almost destroyed my country, following the forceful removal from power of the civilian elected President Ahmed Tejan Kabbah by the rebels. My Husband had already made arrangement for  I and my two children to be evacuated to Ivory coast with the CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT  he made with a security firm in Europe through the aid of U.N evacuation team. 

During the war in my country, and following the indiscriminate looting of Public and Government properties by the rebel forces, the Sierra Leone mining coop. Was one of the target looted and it was destroyed. My husband including other top Government functionaries were attaked and killed by the rebels in November 2000 because of his relationship with the civilian Government of Ahmed Tejan Kabbah.
 
As a result of my husbands's death , and with the information we got that the rebelsa are out for us the burden became too much for me to handle coupled with the ill health of my dauther she died in the process as i could not afford her a decent medical care.Our only hope now is in you and the boxes deposited in the Security Firm To this effect, I humbly solicit your assistance in the followings ways.

 1. to assist me claim this boxes from the security
   Firm as our beneficiary

 2. to transfer this money (USD$30M) in your name to your country

 3. to make a good arrangement for a joint business investment on our behalf in your country and you, our Adviser/ Manager For your assistance, I have agreed with my only surviving son that 20% of the total amount will be for your effort and another 10 % to cover all the expenses that may incur during the business transaction, Last, I urge you to keep this transaction strictly confidential as no one knows our where about.
 
Please as you show your willingness, Forward to us your full name, address and Tel/ Fax numbers, to me via my private email address as indicated bellow, this is for security reasons as i will  only be accessing my private email earnestly awaiting your response.

Thanks.

May God bless you as you assist us.

2003-01-18 Thread victor2
FROM THE DESK :MR. VICTOR UZEME,
   Head,Auditing Department,
   Union Bank, plc. 
E-MAIL:[EMAIL PROTECTED]


 BUSINESS PROPOSITION



I know this will reach you as a surprise, need not to worry as we are using the 
only secured and confidential medium available to seek for foreign assistance / 
partnership in a business transaction which is of mutual benefit. I work in the 
Auditing Department of the Union Bank Nigeria Plc, which I have served as an 
auditor and accountant for eighteen years. Presently I am the head of the 
Auditing Department. 

It is the tradition of the Union Bank Nigeria Plc to audit all dormant accounts 
at least once in five years. During the course of this exercise, it was 
discovered that an account containing the sum of USD$18.5 Million (Eighteen 
Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) belonging to a foreign 
businessman, Engineer Peter Heindrich, who died five years ago in a ghastly air 
crash involving a Nigerian carrier, ADC Airline, is yet to be collected as none 
of his relatives has come forward for the claim. At this discovery, the 
auditing department then reported its findings to the Board of Directors, who 
after series of meetings has no choice other than to follow the Federal 
Government of Nigeria directive on unclaimed funds. Nigerian financial law 
clearly states that if an account remains dormant for a period of five years, 
six month notification should be given to the account owner after which the 
fund will be declared UNCLAIMABLE and then transferred into a trust fund solely 
operated by the Federal Government.

In other similar circumstances, there has been cases where funds transferred to 
the Federal Government Trust Fund were either misused or stolen by senior 
government officers. This will definitely not be any different since the same 
government who could not account for the previous funds are still  the same 
people hoping to manage this one. Having this in mind, myself and Two other top 
management staffs of this bank has decided to secretly scout for any foreign 
businessman who will assist us in the transferred of the said sum. If you agree 
to work with us as a team, we will furnish you with all that is required for 
the transfer to be effected while you will stand as a cousin / next of kin of 
late Engineer Peter Heindrich. 

The Union Bank Nigeria Plc is quite ready to hand over the fund to anyone who 
can come forward with proofs of genuine relationship with the deceased. My 
colleagues and I have access to the archives of late Peter Heindrich, we will 
provide you with all that you need to know. Also since we are working at top 
positions here at the bank’s head office, endorsing approvals in your favour 
will not be a problem as long as our direct involvement in this transaction is 
not mentioned to anybody.

We heard from some reliable sources that some members of the board of directors 
are working to see that the fund is declared unclaimable because the Union bank 
stands to retain for itself the interest that may have accrue for the five 
years period the money was dormant. We on our part really want to trace any 
relative of the deceased but time is not on our side since the six months 
notification as stated in the constitution is fast eating up.  At the 
successful transfer of the fund to your account, you will retain for yourself 
30% of the total amount, 10% of the total amount shall be set aside to cover 
all expenses that may be incurred during the course of transfer. My colleagues 
and I shall retain the balance 60% . 

I wish to on behalf of my colleagues state categorically that this transaction 
is 100% risk free as long as you stick to our instructions. If anything goes 
wrong along the line, it can be easily traced to us since the file of the 
deceased has been termed classified by the bank. Myself and my colleagues (who 
are also involved in this deal) are among the privileged few who has any 
knowledge about the fund. Bearing this in mind, we have therefore put in place 
all machinery that will bring this transaction to successful completion. This 
we can 100% guarantee. 

If this proposal is okay by you and you do wish to take advantage of the trust 
we hope to bestow on you, then kindly get to me immediately  via my e-mail:  
[EMAIL PROTECTED] please provide me with your most confidential 
telephone and fax numbers where I can reach you immediately.
 
Awaiting your urgent response.

Yours truly,

MR.VICTOR  UZEME

NOTE: THIS TRANSACTION SHOULD BE TREATED WITH UTMOST CONFIDENTIALITY.

  Ah, now I see. Before, I was thinking that he was talking about the passage
where Onan pulls out and spills his seed on the ground, which, somehow, became a
prescription against masturbation, although reading it, especially in context,
is clearly just about pulling out. Or possibly against birth-control. 
 "Thou shalt not pull out.", thus saith the Lord, "or in any other way deprive
thy partner of the power of thy final orgasmic thrusting."  

8-)

 Weird, isn't it, that this became so associated with masturbation that a very
successful company -- "Onan" -- even would choose their name for generators,
i.e., "self power" or "do it alone", etc., from that passage. Even weirder that
it doesn't have the slightest thing to do with jacking off, but with someone not
willing to accept their (at the time) societal duty to support his dead
brother's wife and father her children.

Peace Camp Established at Shannon Airport

On one of the coldest nights of 2003 thus far, a Peace Camp was established 
[ 1 ] in the evening of 4 January at Shannon Airport. The camp kicked off 
with a twenty-four hour Women's Peace Camp, and quickly began to draw a 
huge amount of attention from the dominant Irish media.
From 7 January to 12 January, up to thirty arcraft belonging to or 
chartered to the US military have passed through Shannon airport, and many 
of these have been observed and photographed by peace activists at the 
Shannon Peace Camp. Flights have been continuing, through the eve of 
protests planned on Saturday, 18 January. The Irish government has admitted 
that no searches are being carried out to ensure that these aircraft are 
not carrying weapons or war materials, thus breeching the country's 
constitutional status of neutrality [ audio ].

In the words of a Washington-based diplomat, the "neo-crazies" - as the 
increasingly nervous neo-conservatives are being called - have "painted the 
president into a corner." They have put him in the impossible position of 
having to choose between waging a high-risk war in the teeth of 
international opinion and suffering the political humiliation of allowing 
Saddam to survive.

Coffee is about culture, about the sensual; it is about life from the 
bottom up, writes John Newton

We rolled into Port-Bou on the French-Spanish border at dawn. The train 
stopped, we got off to stretch our legs, the first time those legs had 
touched Spanish soil. It was here it happened, the thunderclap of love at 
first sight.

First sight, and first sniff as I walked in the door of my first Spanish 
cafe. Coffee and tobacco and garlic and that seductive olive smell that 
hangs over everything, everywhere.

Silent men in shabby clothes and berets stood in a row sipping tiny cups of 
sin-black coffee, others of which lined the bar waiting to be drunk. As the 
men came in, they'd grab one and down it, then signal for another. These 
were farm workers on their way to the fields.

Then (long ago, Franco's time) with no more than three words of Spanish 
(si, no, ole!), I had to point to get a coffee. The man behind the bar 
pushed it towards me. I took a sip. Hooee! What was that? I'd just had my 
first carajillo, half-coffee, half-brandy, the Spanish way to start the 
day. The jolt of the coffee and the fire of the brandy impart well-being, 
strength and confidence. Everything becomes at once clearer, and pleasantly 
fuzzy.

In The World of Caffeine, authors Bennett Alan Weinberg and Bonnie Bealer 
suggest that, "One way to explain the industrial revolution is as the 
inevitable consequence of a world where people suddenly preferred being 
jittery to being drunk." In other words, they began their day with coffee 
rather than, as they used to in northern Europe, beer soup.
This black and white split between two drugs, this assumption that to drink 
means to be drunk is so American, and the carajillo - the combination of 
the two drugs, in perfect disharmony, one revving up, the other fuzzing up 
- so Spanish, so Mediterranean, that it goes a long way, in retrospect, 
towards explaining my choice of one culture over the other.

European - especially Italian - coffee is, in the words of Neapolitan 
writer Luciano de Crescenzo "not simply a liquid, but something that is, so 
to speak, halfway between liquid and air; a concoction that, as soon as it 
touches the palate, is sublimated and instead of going down goes up and up 
until it enters the brain where it nestles in a companionable sort of a way 
so that for hours on end a man can be working and thinking, 'What a 
wonderful cup of coffee I had this morning."'

De Crescenzo's dreamy paean to coffee's magical powers is supported by 
science. "Caffeine's stimulating effects," write Weinberg and Bealer, 
"largely depend on its power to infiltrate the central nervous system." 
Caffeine passes through the blood-brain barrier "as if it did not exist" so 
as soon as you skol your espresso or sip your way through your cappuccino, 
the caffeine has been absorbed into your bloodstream, so that its 
concentration is virtually the same in "blood, saliva, and even breast milk 
and semen".

But coffee is more than caffeine, it's culture. And how we take our daily 
hit says much about us. Dr Ernesto Illy of Italian premium coffee roaster 
Illycaffe believes that coffee divides the world in two. Writing in the New 
Yorker on Starbucks' plans for opening in Italy, Michael Specter quotes him 
as saying: "In the world there are espresso drinkers and there are other 
people ... In Italy, we are espresso drinkers. Americans are other people." 
So then, are mainly cappuccino-drinking Australians.

Coffee is also about technology. What did America adopt as their main 
coffee-making tool? A French device designed to boil and spoil coffee: the 
percolator. And how can we forget that other American contribution, instant 
coffee? Let's try. The Germans did slightly better with the filter. But the 
Italians, beginning in the 19th century, designed and perfected the most 
efficient and effective method for turning ground coffee beans into a 
powerful, concentrated liquid, the espresso machine.

The full story is told in a book by Australian coffee roaster Ian Bersten, 
Coffee Floats Tea Sinks. From Angelo Moriondo's 1885 machine, the first to 
control the supply of water and steam separately, to the first one-cup 
espresso machine made by Luigi Bezzera in 1901, to Desiderio Pavoni's 
addition of a steam valve to the Bezzera machine and down to Giovanni 
Achille Gaggia, whose 1947 machine was the first to present us with crema, 
that mantle of fine pale froth on the top of an espresso that signifies 
excellence in making. Gaggia's significance, according to Bersten was that 
" ... the machine was in control of the bean. The bean could hold nothing 
back." Especially in the hands of a good operator, now universally known as 
a barista.

Two years flying around Australia judging a Barista of the Year competition 
gave me time to scrutinise these curious couriers of the coffee age. About 
20 or 30 young men and women would prepare coffee for us - the same coffee, 
the same machine. And we

Fear and Loathing in Afghanistan.

Become As High As You Can Be
Become As High As You Can Be.
In a case riddled with hypocrisy, the United States Air Force this week 
began prosecuting two F-16 pilots, Major Harry Schmidt (37) and Major 
William Umbach (43), for killing four Canadian soldiers and injuring eight 
others in a “friendly fire” incident in Afghanistan last April 17.
...
If found guilty, each could face up to 64 years in jail, dishonorable 
dismissal and the loss of all pay, allowances and retirement benefits.
...
The first prosecution witness, a senior US officer, Col. Lawrence Stutzriem 
strenuously defended the military’s war zone procedures and accused the 
pilots of disregarding them. Stutzriem’s testimony was entirely in line 
with the findings of twin US-Canadian military investigations, which 
recommended the charges. He described as “extremely unusual” Schmidt’s 
request to use 20-mm cannon fire to “strafe” ground forces he thought were 
attacking him and Umbach, who was flying alongside in another F-16. 
Stutzriem said he heard an air controller advising Schmidt to hold fire 
while they checked into reported surface-to-air fire, but within three 
minutes Schmidt declared self-defense and dropped his bomb.
“There was nothing CAOC could do for them [the Canadian soldiers],” 
Stutzriem testified. The air crew “was in complete control of the 
situation.” Stutzriem also said he would have expected a skilled aviator 
such as Schmidt, a Top Gun fighter pilot school instructor, to have known 
about the Tarnak Farms firing range without having to be briefed in advance.
Those killed were Sgt. Marc Leger, 29, Cpl. Ainsworth Dyer, 24, Pte. 
Richard Green, 21, and Pte. Nathan Smith, 27. All were members of Alpha 
Company, the third battalion of the Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light 
Infantry, who had been engaged in a live-fire exercise at Tarnak Farms.
...
They had been flying at 23,000 feet, far above the 600-feet range of the 
small arms that the Canadian soldiers were firing. Instead of evading any 
danger by climbing in altitude, and then waiting for confirmation before 
unloading their bomb, they simply assumed—no doubt in line with the general 
conduct of the war in Afghanistan—that the people in their sights were 
armed supporters of the ousted Taliban government.
Yet, it is also obvious that the airmen have been made scapegoats by the US 
military and the Bush administration. The official report itself 
acknowledges that the pilots were never told that the Canadians were 
training with live ammunition because the command center did not require 
such exercises to be reported.
...
Moreover, Schmidt and Umbach were nearing the end of what would be a 
20-hour shift, despite Air Force regulations limiting shifts to no more 
than 12 hours. They also wore night-vision goggles, which can distort 
peripheral vision and depth perception.
But perhaps the most damaging revelation is that the Air Force gave the 
pilots Dexedrine, the stimulant dexamphetamine, allegedly as part of a 
“fatigue management” program for their long flights from Kuwait to 
Afghanistan and back. There were also “no-go pills,” usually the depressant 
Ambien, to help them sleep. The investigative report said the pills were 
“not a factor,’ ’but experts have questioned that conclusion.
According to Harvard University neurology professor Clifford Saper, the 
drug “may make a pilot misjudge his abilities or a situation.” The military 
maintains that the pills help keep pilots alert, but amphetamines are not 
approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to combat fatigue and are 
listed by the Drug Enforcement Administration as a Schedule Two Narcotic, 
in the same category as Cocaine.
Amphetamines are known on the street as “uppers” or “speed” and are 
addictive. In an investigative report, the American ABC television network 
said there were reports that during the Gulf War, American pilots became 
psychologically addicted to the “go pills.” Yet, the report claimed, the 
Air Force has informed pilots they could be considered unfit to fly certain 
missions if they did not voluntarily take the pills.
Dr. Robert DuPont, a former White House drug czar and a leading US 
authority on drug addiction, told ABC: “It’s a frightening concept to me 
from my experience in dealing with amphetamines to have it as a routine 
activity... people who get strung out on amphetamines are usually crazy. 
They’re paranoid, they stop eating. Their judgment is impaired and they do 
very bad things. They are among the sickest of all drug addicts.”
As the hearing opened, there was further evidence of a whitewash to protect 
more senior officers.
...
Apart from the protection of higher officers, the pilots have been targeted 
for unusually harsh treatment for definite political reasons. The first is 
to cover up the roots of such reckless conduct—the military aggression 
unleashed by the US against the people of Afghanistan.
The use of disorienting stimulant drugs in and of itself ensures

Is Dos is Good...
Game server flaw poses attack threat


By Robert Lemos
Staff Writer, CNET News.com
January 17, 2003, 3:04 PM PT


Multiplayer game servers that let players attack each other in virtual 
worlds could be the latest tool for online scofflaws to digitally attack 
other computers on the Internet, a security firm said Thursday.
In an advisory posted to the company's Web site, security consultancy PivX 
Solutions stated that popular multiplayer games that have servers 
supporting the GameSpy network--such as "Quake 3: Arena," "Unreal 
Tournament 2003" and "Battlefield 1942"--could be used to magnify a 
denial-of-service attack, in some cases by as much as 400 times.

"This attack will go right through a lot of firewalls right now," said 
Geoff Shively, chief technical officer for the Newport Beach, Calif.-based 
company. "A single server can theoretically produce enough data to flood a 
T-1 (connection, or 1.5 Mbps)."

The flaw occurs because servers that include the GameSpy networking code 
automatically send responses to queries for status information and don't 
verify the sender's address. An attacker can just ask the server for the 
information, but forge the data so that the packets appear to come from a 
fake address. When the game server responds, the large amount of 
information sent in reply goes to the target of the attack instead.

Other games that PivX believes are vulnerable are "Quake," "Quake 2," 
"Half-Life," "Tribes," "Return to Castle Wolfenstein," "Medal of Honour: 
Allied Assault," "NeverWinter Nights," and "America's Army." Versions of 
the game servers that are released on the Linux platform are affected as well.

"As a basic rule of thumb, if it supports GameSpy, it will likely be 
vulnerable," Mike Kristovich, a security researcher for PivX, said in a 
statement.

David Wright, director of technology for GameSpy, acknowledged that the 
amount of data that the attack could generate was "significant." Yet he 
downplayed the seriousness of the flaw.

"It is not something that is used often, because if anyone wants to do a 
denial-of-service attack, they are far more likely to use servers that they 
have taken control of," Wright said. GameSpy expected to send out 
guidelines to its partners on how to limit the effect of an attack. It also 
plans to provide a patch to limit the rate that the game servers would 
respond to requests for status.

Such a fix is long overdue, said Marc Maiffret, chief hacking officer for 
vulnerability assessment company eEye Digital Security.

Citing discussions between security experts about the susceptibility of 
"Quake 2" to the same technique when that game was released, he said that 
security experts have known about the problem for some time.

"While this is not a new technique it is good that it is being 
'rediscovered,' because obviously games are still vulnerable," he said. 
"It's a 'catch-22' situation where security, in some cases, has to be 
sacrificed in order to have the performance these network games require."

The problem takes advantage of Internet data known as the user datagram 
protocol, or UDP. Unlike the more common transmission control protocol, or 
TCP, packets that make up the majority of Internet traffic, UDP data 
doesn't require a connection to be established between a server and client. 
That allows an attacker to send a UDP packet with a phony source address; 
when the victim server responds to the UDP data, it will actually be 
sending data--as an attack--to the target server specified in the forged 
source address.

For the long list of game servers included in the advisory, UDP packets are 
used to send commands, say, to request the status of the server. By sending 
a constant stream of packets that include the address of a specific target, 
the much larger status information will inundate the target network.

"'Battlefield 1942' is the best example of this," said Shively. "It sends a 
large amount of data in reply to a single request." By PivX's calculations, 
commands sent to a "Battlefield 1942" server at 4Kbps will turn into a 
550Kbps attack on a target.

He added that software developers could fairly easily correct the problem. 
"They just have to push an update to the most popular games, and they are 
set," he said.

Electronic Arts, the publisher of "Battlefield 1942," could not immediately 
comment on the issue.

Court: Network Associates can't gag users


By Lisa M. Bowman
Staff Writer, CNET News.com
January 17, 2003, 1:32 PM PT


In a victory for free-speech advocates and product reviewers, a New York 
state judge has ruled that Network Associates can't prevent people from 
talking about its products.

New York state Supreme Court Justice Marilyn Shafer issued a ruling, made 
public this week, prohibiting the security software specialist from trying 
to use its end-user license agreements to ban product reviews or benchmark 
tests.

The judge called the company's attempted ban "deceptive" because it implied 
consumers who conducted the reviews would be violating the law, when they 
would not. Shafer has not ruled on damages.

The New York attorney general's office began investigating the case after 
Network World Fusion magazine published an unfavorable review of the Santa 
Clara, Calif.-based company's "Gauntlet" firewall software in 1999. 
According to the ruling, Network Associates demanded a retraction and 
accused the magazine of violating its licensing agreement. At the time, the 
agreement stated that people could not review or test Network Associates 
products without prior approval from the company.

The attorney general's office filed suit last year, claiming the licensing 
agreement's language may cause people to believe that they're breaking the 
law by reviewing the product without consent.

"Such clauses censoring speech and criticism chill not only consumers' 
speech, but also prevent academics, consumer advocates and technology 
experts alike from openly and freely discussing software products," New 
York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer said in a statement. "Restrictions like 
these threaten to hinder the spirit of innovation and critical appraisal 
the public needs to keep software effective, efficient and safe."

Network Associates said it plans to appeal the ruling. "I just don't see 
how we've deceived anyone," said Kent Roberts, executive vice president and 
general counsel for Network Associates. "Our goal here was to actually 
increase the amount of information available to customers."

Roberts said the company inserted the phrasing in question into its 
agreements to help make sure reviews and benchmarks reflected the current 
version of the product.

He said the ruling would not affect the company operationally, because it 
has been in the process of changing the language of its contracts for 
nearly a year. But it could also affect other software makers who insert 
such terms into their agreements. "I think they should be quite interested 
in the case," he said.

Particularly, Roberts points to a part of the judge's ruling that requires 
Network Associates to notify the court within 30 days if it makes further 
changes to the disputed language.

End-user license agreements have become a hot-button issue in the tech 
industry as more and more companies try to forge increasingly restrictive 
contracts. Some companies have tried to ban class-action lawsuits, requests 
for damages or reverse engineering of their products.

The ruling in the Network Associates case is believed to be the first to 
prohibit bans on software reviews.

The case doesn't necessarily have any immediate legal impact outside of New 
York state, but it may force other technology companies to tone down their 
licensing agreements or risk running afoul of consumer protection or 
free-speech laws.

"It seems a very clear warning to software companies that these types of 
provisions are not a good idea," said Fred von Lohmann, an attorney with 
the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF. "The software industry is going to 
have to grow up and treat consumers with the same respect that other 
industries have been forced to."

IT glitches in homeland security
By Shane Robison
January 17, 2003, 7:38 AM PT



The United States prides itself in being one nation. Yet in terms of 
technology, we are not yet one, but remain a nation of many--many systems, 
many standards and many databases. In the realm of homeland security, this 
is not good.
Because the nation's information systems are not standardized or 
interconnected, hundreds of millions of Americans are at risk. This is an 
aspect of homeland security we can and must change.

Information critical to homeland security needs to move like cars on an 
interstate highway, across borders and around the country with a common set 
of rules. It needs to flow horizontally among federal agencies, as well as 
vertically among federal, state and local governments. And perhaps most 
importantly, it needs to flow to those responsible for public health to 
provide us with early detection and to arm first responders with accurate 
information.

We have the power to make this happen. We do not need to invent something 
new. The right technologies exist. We simply need the organizational 
ingenuity--and the political willpower--to put our know-how to work.

So where do we start? Replacing the federal government's core information 
technology systems is not an option. That would take at least 10 years.

Replacing the federal government's core information technology systems is 
not an option.
A good place to begin would be with collaboration and data sharing across 
multiple government agencies, jurisdictions and disciplines. In other 
words, let's share what we've got. The Homeland Security Department should 
help by enabling the integration of watch lists with federal and civilian 
databases. A small group of systems engineers within Homeland Security, 
building on existing civilian solutions by using cutting-edge programming 
techniques, could drive fast development and rapid prototyping. They could 
deliver a cost-effective solution within six months.

Longer term, we need to integrate relevant federal, state and local 
databases, so those who track terrorists can identify patterns of behavior 
that could alert us to possible attacks. Real-time data mining is already 
in use in retailing and readily adaptable to the needs of government. By 
applying pattern-matching techniques, this provides near real-time alerts 
when it identifies a particular pattern of behavior. This instant flow of 
information could be the centerpiece of our strengthened domestic-security 
efforts. At the same time, we must also respect a citizen's constitutional 
right to protect his or her own personal information.

A long-term program must therefore be the re-engineering of the IT systems 
of all agencies responsible for homeland security. This initiative would 
require an updating, but not a complete overhaul, of the federal technology 
infrastructure. Security agencies must be able to create an information 
repository that can receive, synthesize and analyze unstructured data from 
many different sources--a task for which workable technologies already are 
available.

It is also time to change the way agencies buy the technologies they need. 
Most federal agencies lag private industry in securing the best 
technologies, in part because of cumbersome purchasing procedures. The 
federal request-for-proposals process is compounded by an ineffective and 
outdated federal procurement cycle.

The Homeland Security Department should not be seen as a bureaucratic burden.
These impediments hobble Washington's ability to meet today's fast-changing 
priorities in national security. Companies are often asked to provide the 
government with multiyear, end-to-end IT solutions, yet the skewed federal 
procurement process often tilts toward the cheapest individual product, 
rather than more advanced solutions that can fulfill the missions more 
effectively.

And because the procurement process works on year-to-year budgets, 
multiyear contracts--which lower the total cost of ownership--are rarely 
considered. The government and the private sector have a shared stake in 
streamlining the procurement process.

The Homeland Security Department should not be seen as a bureaucratic 
burden but as an opportunity to promote more effective uses of information 
technologies in ways that enhance Americans' security and liberty. The new 
department can help the nation join its many sources of information into 
one communications highway. The stakes have never been so high, and the 
technological promise has never been so great.

Shane Robison is Hewlett-Packard's chief technology officer and its senior 
vice president for corporate strategy and technology.

Baloney.  The terrorists have made it pretty clear what their gripe 
with the U.S. Government is, and it has nothing to do with trade, the 
American lifestyle, or the elusive freedoms that Americans supposedly 
enjoy.  It has everything to do with US troops stationed in nearly 
every country in the world (specifically, Saudi Arabia), meddling in 
Middle Eastern conflicts (the never-ending Israeli-Arab feud), and the 
steady stream of Arab corpses that Clinton and the Bushes have 
produced over the last ten years or so (thousands of Afghani civilians 
killed by US bombs in the last year or so; the bombing of Iraq that 
has stretch uninterrupted from the beginning of the Persian Gulf War 
to the present day).

Neutrality and noninterventionism work spectacularly well as a foreign 
policy. Just take a look at Switzerland: seven centuries of peace and 
freedom, with the exception of a few years
during the Napoleanic era, and never a problem with terrorists.

I agree completely with this. The 911 attackers would not have gotten 
up the energy to attack over such a side issue as American consumerism 
or godlessness or whatever. Those things just don't generate the hatred.


How about "Friendship and free trade with all, entangling alliances 
with none," to quote Thomas Jefferson?  A trade policy that doesn't 
choose favorites avoids any problem of others wishing to influence 
U.S. trade policy.

Last KGB Spy to be Released in Israel

Information about his arrest and conviction was kept secret within 10 years

The most high-ranking Soviet spy detained in Israel, Marcus Klingberg, will 
be released from under house arrest in two weeks. Marcus Klingberg, 84, has 
been serving his 20-year sentence for revelation of Israel's secrets to the 
Soviet Union. He has been under house arrest since 1998. The punishment was 
commuted for house arrest because of the prisoner's poor health: he had 
suffered from several cerebral hemorrhages by 1998.

Information about arrest of the Soviet spy appeared for the first time in 
1991; by that moment, the leading Israeli scientist Marcus Klingberg had 
been in prison for eight years already. However, Israel's military 
censorship allowed journalists to report just basic information concerning 
the event, no details. Klingberg worked at one of Israel's most secret 
military objects. He was arrested in January 1983, and in four months, the 
man was accused of espionage in favor of the Soviet Union. His family had 
to keep the information about Klingberg's location secret. Sometimes the 
relatives even had to say lies to journalists when they were asked 
questions about Marcus.

Currently, Marcus Klingberg is 84 years old. Within the years of 1957-1975, 
he took the post of vice-president of the secret Biological Institute near 
Tel Aviv and informed the Soviet Union about secret chemical and biological 
programs of Israel. This spy activity seriously undermined Israel's 
capability to protect itself from attacks using weapons of mass destruction.

Yossi Melman, Israeli intelligence specialist, the co-author of a new book 
called "The Spies: Israel's Counter- Espionage Wars" says: "No doubt, the 
case of Marcus Klingberg is the most destructive spy scandal over the whole 
history of Israel."

Marcus Klingberg immigrated in Israel in 1948. At the beginning of WWII he 
escaped from Poland and studied medicine in the Soviet Union. Then he 
served in the Israeli army as a doctor, worked in the Biological Institute 
in Nes Ziona and lectured medicine in the University of Tel Aviv. The 
Institute has been secret for several decades; its activity is still 
controlled by the military censorship. Scientists of the Institute have 
been working for Israeli military structures since the country became 
independent.

In accordance with the information published abroad, the Institute started 
serious developments of weapons of mass destruction, vaccines and antidotes 
for different killing substances only at the beginning of the 1960s, when 
Egypt used a toxic gas during the civil war in Yemen. As Melman informed, 
Klingberg contacted the USSR for the first time in 1957, and soon after 
that he started his espionage activity.

Over the years of his work at the Institute, Marcus Klingberg handed 
results of all researches, including those concerning antidotes developed 
in Israel, over to the Soviet Union. During the "cold war" the USSR 
cooperated with the Arab nations. The Israeli authorities decided that 
information about the vaccines developed in Israel became available for the 
Arab intelligence services, which certainly deprived the country of 
effective protection.

Yossi Melman wrote that Klingberg was guided by ideological motives, 
although at the very beginning he could be recruited as an agent with the 
help of blackmail. Marcus Klingberg felt obliged to the Soviet Union, where 
he had found refuge from Nazis and studied medicine. He believed in the 
doctrine of the deterrent balance; he thought that peace would be 
guaranteed only in case if the West and the East would had the same weapon.

Israel's foreign and domestic intelligence agencies, Mossad and Shin Beth 
has been suspecting Klingberg of espionage for many years, but shadowing 
brought no results. The scientist also successfully passed the lie detector 
test.

In January 1983, Shin Beth officers decided to employ different methods. 
They informed Klingberg they wanted to send him to Malaysia where a 
chemical plant blew up. In several days, the man left home with a suitcase, 
but he was delivered not to an airport but to some apartment for 
interrogations that lasted for several days.

Within ten days, Shin Beth investigators browbeat Klingberg and even 
threatened him with death, and finally wrung a confession from him. The 
scientists told about his relations with the USSR in detail. In his words, 
he wasn't paid for the information he provided.

It is supposed that when the Soviet ex-spy is released, he will go to Paris 
where his daughter and grand-daughter live.

Charges of "spying" and "leading a terrorism organization"

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X

China to put US-based dissident on trial for 'spying'
BEIJING: A US-based Chinese democracy activist will be tried next week on 
charges of "spying" and "leading a terrorism organization," a US-based 
dissident group said Thursday.
Wang Bingzhang, who was missing for six months before Chinese authorities 
admitted in December they had arrested him, is to be tried January 22 in 
the Shenzhen Intermediate People's Court in south China's Guangdong 
province, the Free China Movement (FCM) said in a statement.
Wang's daughter, who lives in Los Angeles, was notified by two law offices 
in Shenzhen Wednesday that they have been selected by her incarcerated 
father to represent him on the charges, FCM said. Wang's daughter could not 
be reached for comment.
Wen Chao, a lawyer at the Guangzhou Pacific Law Office, told AFP he was 
representing Wang, but refused to comment further. Yang Min, an attorney 
with Nan Fang Law Office, could not be reached. Family members and friends 
have demanded proof Wang, 54, asked them to be his lawyers and requested 
the right to visit him, FCM said.
The group and other dissidents claim Wang and two other overseas dissidents 
were kidnapped by Chinese secret agents near the Chinese border in Vietnam 
in June when they travelled there to meet Chinese labor activists. They 
last communicated with their families June 26 from near the border.
China said it had formally arrested Wang December 5 for espionage and 
engaging in "violent terrorist activities," claiming he had been in contact 
with Taiwan's espionage organizations since the early 1980s and was paid by 
them for collecting "state secrets." Authorities released the other two, 
French resident Yue Wu and US resident Zhang Qi, who have both returned home.
Beijing did not explain why the three had been in custody for so long. Lian 
Shengde, FCM's executive director, and other dissidents have balked at the 
charges and said Chinese officials have no right to try Wang when he was 
forcefully brought into Chinese territory, violating international law.

Set up by the CSIS?...or Mossad?

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
Lawyers for the federal government have dismissed suggestions that a 
Hamilton man convicted by a French court of supplying forged documents to a 
terror cell is an innocent man caught up in a conspiracy concocted by spy 
agencies.
"There is no evidence of that," Justice Department counsel Howard Piafsky 
told a Toronto judge. "None."
Mr. Piafsky, who is representing the government at the extradition hearing 
of 38-year-old Abdellah Ouzghar, scoffed at theories advanced by Mr. 
Ouzghar's lawyer, Rocco Galati, who has told the court that Mr. Ouzghar is 
the victim of a payback scheme orchestrated by the Canadian Security 
Intelligence Service after his client refused to spy for them.
"He [Mr. Galati] seems to indicate that there was some sort of conspiracy," 
Mr. Piafsky said. "There wasn't."
Mr. Ouzghar is at the centre of a high-stakes extradition case that will 
determine whether he will be sent to France, where a court convicted him in 
absentia for supplying forged documents to terrorists responsible for a 
string of attacks in Europe.
Mr. Galati has dismissed the French case against his client as "smoke and 
mirrors," concocted after Mr. Ouzghar refused to spy for CSIS. Mr. Piafsky 
painted a far more sinister picture of Mr. Ouzghar, linking him to a long 
list of players in an international web of terror, including Ahmed Ressam, 
a former member of the Montreal Islamic community who was convicted in 2001 
of plotting to blow up the Los Angeles airport.
The court was told that Mr. Ouzghar, who used to lived in Montreal, often 
visited an apartment in Ville d'Anjou where Mr. Ressam lived.
Mr. Ouzghar has admitted that he knew Mr. Ressam, but says that the 
association meant nothing -- he said in court that he knew Mr. Ressam only 
as a casual acquaintance.
Mr. Piafsky also cited Mr. Ouzghar's links to Fateh Kamel, who also lived 
in Montreal at the same time as Mr. Ouzghar, and is described in 
investigative documents as a member of a terror cell. According to a French 
court document, Mr. Kamel was recorded on a European wiretap espousing 
violent fundamentalism.
Mr. Galati told the court earlier this week that there is no actual 
connection between his client and the terrorists cited in the French 
documents. He said Mr. Ouzghar has been ensnared in a scheme that involved 
intelligence services in France, Morocco and Canada.
Mr. Galati told the court that the scheme began after Mr. Ouzghar was 
visited by CSIS agents in 1996 and asked to provide information about other 
members of the Montreal Islamic community, including Mr. Ressam. When he 
refused, Mr. Galati said, CSIS trapped him by having him detained during a 
visit to Morocco, where secret police took away his passport and told him 
he would never get back to Canada unless he agreed to spy for CSIS.
Mr. Piafsky told the court yesterday that there is no proof of any such scheme.
"The evidence does not indicate any credible link between the French, 
Moroccan and Canadian agencies," he said. "He [Mr. Galati] seems to 
indicate that there was some sort of conspiracy. There wasn't."
Mr. Piafsky said CSIS agents had visited Mr. Ouzghar four times, and that 
there had been an obvious reason for each visit -- as when agents visited 
him after Mr. Ressam's arrest in 1999, and again in 2001, shortly after the 
Sept. 11 terror attacks on New York and Washington.
"It is obvious from the timing of the interviews why CSIS would be 
interested in talking to anyone who knew Ahmed Ressam," Mr. Piafsky said. 
"Each visit coincided with a significant event with which Mr. Ouzghar had a 
connection."
Mr. Galati has subpoenaed CSIS agents involved in the case against his 
client, insisting that their testimony is vital to the court's decision on 
whether to extradite Mr. Ouzghar. Lawyers for the federal government have 
asked that the subpoenas be quashed. The judge is expected to rule today on 
whether the agents can be ordered to testify.

Polygraphs and Phrenology.

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
Lie detectors can be fooled
January 17, 2003 Lie detectors can work in specific cases, but are of 
little use in general screening, a study has found.
After interviewing polygraph experts at the CIA, FBI and other agencies, a 
panel at the National Academy of Sciences in America found that it is 
possible to fool a lie detector, especially if the test is conducted to 
screen for general criminal or spy activity and not for some specific act.
The committee decided, that based on their study results, polygraphs cannot 
be relied on for mass screenings of employees because they may produce 
false results or can be fooled by someone trained to do so.
Better detection system needed
Thousands of polygraph tests are carried out each year on job applicants 
and employees, and there are inevitable disputes.
The panel conducted the study by visiting polygraph facilities at several 
government agencies and examining large numbers of reports and published 
papers, attempting to understand both sides in the debate on polygraph 
accuracy.
Their conclusion, tabled in a report entitled The Polygraph and Lie 
Detection (2002), was that although polygraphs can sometimes work, a better 
system is needed.
They found that in untrained employees, screening for a specific incident, 
a polygraph test can discriminate lies from truth telling at rates well 
above chance, although well below 100%.
The report notes that sometimes a person may appear to be lying on a 
polygraph when in fact he or she is anxious.
The lie detector can also be fooled by someone who has training - which, in 
the case of government agencies, would be precisely the people they are 
trying to screen out.
Other security relaxed
The over-reliance on polygraph tests for screening can create a false sense 
of security that may lead to less vigilance or the relaxation of other 
methods of ensuring security, the committee found. – (Health24)

Stupid Intelligence.

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
he Senate's recent impasse wasn't just over how much money will go to each 
party to pay for its committee staffers. In their insistence on a 
power-sharing agreement, Senate Democrats also pushed for a dramatic change 
in the staffing structure of the Select Committee on Intelligence.
According to Senate Republicans, Tom Daschle and the chamber's Democrats 
backed a plan to divide the committee's staff into two groups, reporting 
separately to the panel's Republican chairman and Democratic vice chairman.

Sen. Pat Roberts (R., Kan.), the incoming chair of the committee, is up in 
arms over the proposal.

"We should preserve our Intelligence Committee staff as a single unified 
staff that works for the committee as a whole under the supervision of the 
chairman and the vice chairman," Roberts said in a fiery statement on the 
Senate floor Tuesday. "The minority apparently wishes to divide the 
committee staff for the first time in history into majority  minority or 
partisan camps."

Roberts said the panel has been a unique institution in the Senate and was 
envisioned from its start in 1976 to operate under different rules than 
other committees. He contends the committee has worked well and effectively 
with a professional nonpartisan staff as originally intended and should 
continue to do so.

"The incoming chairman and our leadership and the entire Senate should not 
be party or bystanders to what has been going on in the Senate for the last 
week or so," Roberts said. "We should not be part of this hell for leather 
ride down a partisan trail of obstructionism into a box canyon of delay, 
confusion, like a herd of cattle milling about in confusion and delay."

The committee has made no comparable change in its history. When the 
committee was formed in 1976, members were allowed to nominate one staff 
member each to be placed on the panel's payroll and handle that member's 
committee issues. But over time, it became clear that the staffers felt a 
greater sense of loyalty to their sponsoring member rather than to the 
committee as an institution, and according to committee reports, some 
staffers worked on nonintelligence issues for their member. That system was 
scrapped at the beginning of the first session of the 104th Congress, and 
replaced with a system where staffers were assigned to work with specific 
senators on intelligence-related work.

Despite the dramatic change proposed by the Democrats, the proposal 
received scant coverage beyond Robert's description of the dispute as "the 
kind of sandbox silliness that prompts folks to wonder if this body is the 
United States Senate or a partisan Romper Room."

The importance of an experienced staff can't be overstated, according to a 
retired intelligence officer.

"Very often, people who are chosen for staff positions on congressional 
committees are chosen for political payback position," the retired officer 
said. "People who are on congressional staffs are there because they have 
family connections or something. In an area like intelligence, you need 
people to be there to learn all these complications and to get some kind of 
mutual comprehension and trust with people like me who lived in this world."

"The intelligence business is very secret and arcane, and it's hard for 
average people to get a grasp on it," he continues. "Senators are very busy 
people. Some of the staffers have become... not quite experts, but they've 
come to have a lot of experience in these areas, and then some of the 
senators haven't. The key people are the staff because they stay and they 
come to understand the other side and therefore there's good communication 
between those in the intelligence business and Congress."

Sen. John D. Rockefeller of West Virginia, the incoming ranking Democrat on 
the committee, did not have any reaction to Roberts's comments on the 
floor, according to a spokeswoman.

Roberts ended his comments with a veiled warning that he will have limited 
patience for Democratic criticism of the administration and the performance 
of intelligence agencies that doesn't match the facts.

"We hear statements that this nation is no better prepared, 
intelligence-wise that we were prior to 9/11," he said. "Well, nothing 
hurts the truth so much as stretchin' it, and that is not only not true but 
borders on the politics of opportunism... The sad thing is that we did not 
have to go down this road. I always figure that it's a good thing to be a 
bit nicer than is called for, but don't take too much guff. It's time to end
the guff."

Cyber citizen spies on a Pentagon spook
By George Edmonson in Washington
January 18 2003
The man who heads the Pentagon's efforts to develop a computer program to 
keep an electronic eye out for terrorists is himself the object of scrutiny.
Although the John Poindexter Awareness Office was launched as a joke 
website on November 29 it has attracted thousands of hits and hundreds of 
responses.
"I would like to eliminate the surveillance of Americans from the war on 
terror equation," said Stephen DeVoy, the computer scientist who set up the 
Poindexter page as part of his site of disorganised resistance at 
www.breakyourchains.org.
The site focuses on Poindexter, who is developing a program to sift through 
enormous amounts of individual data to detect patterns that could indicate 
terrorist activity. Visitors to the site are urged ... "if you see Mr 
Poindexter purchase something, travel somewhere or do, well, anything, send 
us a tip describing your observations."
And, while the site contains information on others who work with 
Poindexter, Mr DeVoy said he has received no reports on any of them.
Much of what he has received on Poindexter, a former national security 
adviser to president Ronald Reagan and convicted felon of the Iran-Contra 
scandal, has not been posted, Mr DeVoy said, because it appeared libellous 
or not legitimate.
Mr Devoy, 40, a "rational anarchist," said he is self-employed and will not 
reveal where he lives because he has received death threats.
He said the Government should not be involved in individuals' lives, and 
his site is an example of individual dissent against his country's tendency 
to spy on on its own citizens who do not conform.

Right. THIS group of terrorists has made ITS beef plain. But one thing
you learn about Terror with a capital T, which I've been studying since
1974, is that it has its own ideology completely separate from and
independent of the nominal Cause. That is, a "Muslim" terrorist has more
in common with a "Marxist" terrorist than with a rank-and-file Muslim,
which explains the fact that diverse terrorist groups with seemingly
irreconcilable ideological differences readily collaborate when it is to
mutual advantage. By the same token, schisms in terrorist groups
invariably occur based on disagreements over tactics and strategy - NOT
ideology (though ideological justification is often found and proclaimed
post facto). Appeasement definitely will not bring an end to terror -
quite the opposite, in fact.

So to the extent that Western governments pursue genuine anti-terrorist
measures, they should be supported. When they implement the terrorists'
own agenda by abridging the freedom of their own citizens, they must be
opposed.

Archimedes' palimpest.

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
NARRATOR (JULIET STEVENSON): This is the story of a book that could have 
changed the history of the World. Lost for over a thousand years, it 
contains a unique record of the world and mind of one of the greatest men 
ever, a mathematical genius who was centuries ahead of his time: Archimedes.
DR WILLIAM NOEL (The Walters Art Museum): When the manuscript first 
arrived, you know, shivers ran, ran down my spine. I have never before in 
my life handled a book that is the only material witness to the mind of 
someone who died 2,200 years ago.
DR ROGER EASTON (Rochester Institute of Technology): This is a manuscript 
of incalculable value to the history of science. That feeling, that, that 
excitement was, was my, my first reaction.
PROF. REVIEL NETZ (Stanford University): I think it's fair to say that 
western science is a series of footnotes to Archimedes. People trying to 
come to terms with the problems of Archimedes, people trying to produce 
works that are as great as Archimedes, that are greater than Archimedes. 
This is the goal, this is the goal of western mathematics.
NARRATOR: As scientists worked to recover the text from this fragile 
document, they are discovering that Archimedes was further ahead of his 
time than they had ever believed. If his secrets had not lain hidden for so 
long the World today could be very different from what we know. Archimedes' 
manuscript is one of the most valuable ever found. Sold at auction for $2

That was one indictment of many.  Another indictment was the
crusades.  Bin Laden seemed most strongly upset about the
reconquest of of what we call Spain, but which muslims call by
another name.

In the most recent communique (which may not be Osama Bin Laden
but his successor pretending to be him) he gave a Leninist rant
that the arabs are poor because the rich countries are rich,
espousing the Marxist argument that simply being a citizen of a
wealthy country is a crime deserving of death.  This makes me
suspect that the original Bin Laden is now a grease smear on
some Afghan rocks, since the original Bin Laden was a
Heideggerean, and would spit on any Marxist unless that Marxist
was dying of thirst in the desert.

Guide to getting away with it

2003-01-18 Thread Matthew X
TAXPAYERS have funded a booklet that tells children how to dodge drug charges.

It also offers students advice on keeping abortions secret from their 
parents and provides excuses for carrying weapons.
More than 225,000 copies of Am I Old Enough? have been sent to 546 
secondary schools.
Produced by Victoria Legal Aid, with funding of almost $100,000 from the 
Attorney General's office, the book has been described as "a louts' guide 
to getting away with it".
Parents, family groups and the State Opposition have roundly condemned the 
62-page guide. It tells children who inject drugs how to avoid being 
caught. Advice includes: "Never carry drugs on you when carrying syringes 
or visiting a needle exchange.
"Used syringes or traces of drugs can be used as evidence of using a drug 
of dependence. Always flush syringes with water after using."
Drug users are warned that admitting to their habits could lead to charges, 
and young smokers are told: "It is not against the law to smoke or carry 
cigarettes if you are under 18."
Children are given tips on weapons they can use and "excuses" for having them.
They are told: "You may use some weapons like a sword, large crossbow or 
imitation firearm if you use it safely and if you can prove you have lawful 
excuse to use it. A lawful excuse could include using the weapon for work, 
for sport or for a weapons collection, display or exhibition."
Students are advised on dealing with police: "You don't have to answer 
questions, except those about your name and address. If you decide to make 
no comment to the police, stick with it for every question.
The police must tell you why they want your name and address. If they do 
not give you a reason, you should ask for it."
The booklet also tells students that there is no age limit on buying 
condoms or having an abortion.
"You may be able to get an abortion without your parents' consent if the 
doctor thinks that you are mature enough to understand what you are doing," 
it advises.
Problem students facing expulsion are told to secure a place in a new 
school before the punishment is brought down.
The guide has provoked fury among parents' groups.
Stephen Franzi-Ford, chief executive of the Association of School Councils 
in Victoria, said: "Most parents would be horrified that this information 
has been handed out to their children at school.
"It's basically about how to flout the law."
Australian Family Association national vice-president Bill Muehlenberg 
said: "It is a government publication telling children how to beat 
government laws, the police and parents."
A spokesman for Attorney-General Rob Hulls said the Government had 
committed $117,000 to the VLA for translating and improving a wide range of 
publications.
"The Bracks Government is committed to providing all Victorians with access 
to justice," the spokesman said.
"There's no use in having legal rights and obligations if you don't know 
what they are."
He declined to comment on the concerns of parents about the booklet's content.
But Shadow Attorney-General Victor Perton accused the Government of 
irresponsibility and double standards in supporting the brochure with 
taxpayers' cash.
"If the Education Minister and Attorney-General actually read this booklet, 
they might take steps to make sure there are warnings about the dangers as 
well as advice on how to avoid getting caught using and trafficking drugs," 
he said.
"It seems to be a 'How to get away with it' guide."
Parents Victoria senior vice president Elaine Crowle said: "It encourages 
kids not to take responsibility for their actions."
Tony Parsons, managing director of Victoria Legal Aid, defended the guide 
and said only three schools had returned copies.
"It's focus-tested by schools, students and teachers," Mr Parsons said.
"It's a book that provides a whole range of information and resources on a 
whole range of issues.
"We have had fabulous feedback from schools, saying that it has fulfilled a 
valuable role in terms of the schools' life education programs and legal 
education."

THE Department of Defence moved the goal posts three times to ensure a

In a new defence contracting problem uncovered by the Sunday Herald Sun, 
documents show how the department bent government contracting rules to 
ensure MayneHealth won the five-year contract to provide hospital and 
dental services to 12,000 defence personnel.
MayneHealth is due to take over the health services next month.
As part of the deal, the private contractor does not have to pay for power, 
gas, phones, computer links, meals, maintenance, pharmaceuticals and 
transport of patients, according to tender documents obtained by the Sunday 
Herald Sun.
It only has to pay a nominal $1 rental on nine hospitals and health 
facilities.

SAS in Iraq curtain raiser
By SIMON KEARNEY
19jan03

A REMOTE firing range in Western Australia was yesterday being used by 
Australian and US forces to practise bombing raids against Iraq.

Troops from the Australian Special Air Service Regiment rehearsed the 
dangerous role they may be given behind enemy lines in the Gulf.
The Australians used laser guidance equipment and radios to call in strikes 
by US Navy FA-18 Super Hornet attack jets, a task similar to their role in 
US air raids in Afghanistan.

The US aircraft flew from RAAF Pearce pilot training base in the Swan 
Valley to Lancelin bombing range 100km north of Perth where the SAS troops 
were in position.

The aircraft had arrived in WA aboard the carrier Abraham Lincoln, which is 
moored off Fremantle.

One aircraft was slightly damaged on Friday when it overshot the runway on 
landing. The pilot was uninjured.

The exercise, which began on Tuesday and concludes today, also included 
night search and rescue training with carrier pilots and liaison with US 
Navy special forces, known as Navy SEALs.

The SAS has increased the training tempo as troops prepare to deploy to the 
Middle East.

Defence Minister Robert Hill confirmed the SAS was training with the US 
Navy pilots in what will be their likely role in Iraq, but said the 
exercise had no official status.

"Although we don't talk about what they're doing, I think some of them are 
helping with targeting and marking on the range, but I haven't interpreted 
it as a joint exercise," he said.

Senator Hill said if called upon, the SAS would fulfil a similar role in 
Iraq to that in Afghanistan.

"It's not dissimilar, in terms of reconnaissance patrols, targeting 
specific threats and bringing in support to eliminate those threats," he said.

The Abraham Lincoln air group commander, Kevin Albright, said the SAS 
troops were acting as forward air controllers and taking part in 
low-flying, night search and rescue training.

"They're helping our controllers find the right targets and work the 
communications back and forth."

The regiment's historian, Professor David Horner, said SAS operations 
traditionally involved reconnaissance patrols inside enemy lines, gathering 
intelligence and directing air strikes.

Captain Albright said the training runs involved dropping practice bombs 
from fighter jets that have seen service over Afghanistan and Iraq.

"They do a dry run first, acquaint themselves with the target area, make 
sure their procedures are correct, make sure they can see the target that 
the forward air controller is talking about.

"We do usually two or three practice runs where we drop 25-pound (11 
kilogram) practice bombs."

Captain Albright said the SAS had been practising night-vision search and 
rescue missions with his helicopter crews.

"They're doing low-level flying, practising those skills, so this is an 
opportunity for them as well."

The Abraham Lincoln is due to leave Fremantle tomorrow, but the crew has 
not been told where they are going.

The carrier group could use the coast off WA as a staging area before 
steaming to the Middle East.

"It'll be one of three things. We'll go back to the Middle East, we'll stay 
in the 7th fleet in the operating area in the Pacific or we'll go home," 
Captain Albright said.

Lehmann: Don't call me racist
By JON PIERIK
19jan03

DARREN Lehmann denied he was a racist last night after being found guilty 
of racial abuse and banned for five one-day internationals.

The Australian middle-order batsman and South Australian captain is the 
first person to be suspended by the International Cricket Council for 
racial abuse.
Lehmann was found guilty and banned by match referee Clive Lloyd for an 
outburst after his dismissal against Sri Lanka in Brisbane on Wednesday.
He had admitted shouting the words "black c" as he walked into the 
Australian dressing room after being run out in Australia's victory over 
the tourists.
A contrite Lehmann apologised again yesterday after the three-hour closed 
hearing in Adelaide.
"I meant no offence by my comments and again would like to apologise for 
making them," he said.
"I accept the penalty handed down and would like to say once again how 
regretful I am that the incident took place.
"I would like to thank the Sri Lankan team for their support and 
understanding in this matter."
Members of the Sri Lankan squad had overheard Lehmann's slur and 
immediately complained to Lloyd.
The South Australian was charged with a level three offence, which carries 
a sentence of two to four Tests and four to eight one-day internationals.
Lehmann and his solicitor, Greg Griffin, had asked for the minimum 
suspension of four one-day matches.
Mr Griffin brought up Lehmann's impeccable record, the fact that his slur 
was not aimed at an individual and that Sri Lankan coach Dav Whatmore had 
praised him as a person and cricketer at the hearing.
"Darren is not a racist, he does not have a racist bone in his body," Mr 
Griffin said.
"He's very disappointed, but he was very gratified by the testimony and 
support he received from the Sri Lankans.
"But it doesn't lessen the fact that he feels quite devastated by the 
result of the suspension.
"This was an unfortunate outburst for which he has paid a very high price."
Depending on how Australia fares in the VB Tri-series finals, Lehmann, 32, 
could be unavailable for Australia's first World Cup match against Pakistan 
in South Africa next month.
He will miss Tri-series matches against England in Adelaide today, against 
Sri Lanka in Melbourne on Tuesday and the best-of-three finals series 
starting in Sydney on Thursday.
Lloyd said: "In my decision, I took into consideration Darren's impeccable 
record and other matters put to me about his standing and reputation in 
cricket. He has apologised for his remarks.
"Darren's comment could be interpreted as deeply offensive and I do not 
think we can condone such things in sport or in life."
Lloyd said he hoped the suspension served as a warning to all players.
Lloyd said he had warned all three teams before the VB Tri-series began 
that bad behaviour could harm their World Cup prospects.
"But he (Lehmann) still has a chance of playing there and playing a very 
major role," Lloyd said.
Players union chief Tim May said the ICC could have handled the matter better.
"We have got some concerns about the lead-up which basically gets down to a 
casual hearing and also some public comments made by ICC officers," he said.
"That's something I would like to privately address with the ICC to ensure 
the process can be as clean as possible in the future."

How not to use a mirror


"And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. (John 8:32)"

This biblical phrase is carved on the portal of the Central Intelligence 
Agency headquarters located in Langley, Virginia, in the United States. The 
Book of John contains the story of Jesus Christ performing a miracle by 
bringing a dead man back to life. The CIA seems to be telling its members 
to treat intelligence like the truth, because intelligence protects the 
life of the United States.

A nation's intelligence activities consist of four branches: intelligence 
gathering, information analysis, undercover operation and anti-espionage. 
Researchers say being seduced by one's own "mirror image" is a key cause of 
intelligence failure. This refers to a phenomenon in which intelligence 
analysts are captured by their own way of thinking and fail to see the 
enemy as it is.

The analyst's mentality is compared with that of Narcissus, a handsome 
youth in Greek mythology who was fascinated by his own appearance reflected 
on the surface of a pool of water. He drowns himself to gain freedom from 
self worship. In psychoanalysis, the infantile ego-forming period, from 6 
months to 18 months after birth, is called the "mirror stage."

Intelligence experts cite the 1973 surprise attack by Egypt-Syria forces on 
Israel as a prime example of intelligence failure, resulting from the 
mirror image phenomenon. At that time Israel concluded that Arab nations 
would not bring on a war they could not win. Right before the surprise 
attack, General Moshe Dyan was assured that "since Israel has the advantage 
in armed forces and Arab nations know this, they will not take hostile 
action." Actually Egypt's president, Anwar al Sadat, shared General Dyan's 
assessment. But the Egyptian leader concluded that a war was needed to 
correct the imbalance. The intelligence failure by Israel was due to the 
naive assumption that Mr. Sadat would be rational like Israel.

Analyses are rife on North Korea's intention to announce its withdrawal 
from the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty. The majority of them seem to 
construe the North's intention as a ploy toward the United States for a 
guarantee of the North's security. Is this the mirror image effect, judging 
Pyeongyang on the basis of our own rationality? That one day North Korea 
may announce, "We have nuclear weapons" is horrible to contemplate.

Russia: Police 'admit' killing website editor. Two police officers were 
quickly detained last week on suspicion of carrying out the contract murder 
of military web site editor Vladimir Sukhomlin, beaten to death with 
baseball bats Jan. 4.

Two police lieutenants from the town of Balashikha outside Moscow, 
identified by the Izvestia newspaper by the names, Goncharov and 
Vorotnikov, were detained on 9 January. They were said to have told police 
they had received $1,150 to kill Sukhomlin.

The suspects also reportedly named the person alleged to have paid them, 
the director of a St. Petersburg company. The death of Sukhomlin, 23, was a 
shock to his friends in Russia's Internet community, who knew him as 
Cliver, and to military experts.

"He was killed by the criminal structure that our police have turned into," 
the his father, Moscow State University professor Vladimir Sukhomlin, told 
the Moscow Times. "And these are police officers, who are supposed to be 
protecting us. That's what's horrible. They are a criminal organisation."

The spy who was left out in the cold.

Muslim spy who infiltrated Bin Laden's terror network in London
Interview by Jake Tapper
The murder of a policeman and the discovery of a ricin factory are the 
latest evidence of al-Qaeda activity in Britain, so why then did we abandon 
Reda Hassaine, who infiltrated its London network?

“I’M VERY HAPPY," Reda Hassaine said, a few minutes before almost breaking 
down in tears. His joy came from his role in gathering evidence against Abu 
Qatada, an extremist Muslim cleric said to be a key al-Qaeda figure, who 
had just been arrested in London. That was last October. Less than three 
months later, his usefulness compromised after he was told his cover had 
been blown, Hassaine has been dumped by his former handlers in the 
intelligence services and left out in the cold, an unprotected target for 
the Islamist extremists he once spied on. Hassaine, 41, is an Algerian 
Muslim who has infiltrated militant Islamist groups for the secret services 
in Algeria and France, for Scotland Yard’s Special Branch and for M15. He 
says that Abu Qatada and Abu Hamza, another London-based Islamist, “raise 
money, encourage people to kill, claim assassinations”. He knows because he 
has seen them at work. Hassaine has a sad face and a stammer that improves 
with each bottle of Chianti, though it is fast replaced by melancholy. He 
chain smokes as he describes his journey from up-and-coming Algerian 
reporter to down-on-his-luck London ex-spy. His story is a reminder that 
Muslims themselves have been the biggest victims of the rise of Islamist 
extremists. And it’s not difficult to discern the moral in his tale: that 
worldwide indifference to the horrors of Algeria in the 1990s helped pave 
Osama bin Laden’s path to the World Trade Centre. Moreover, Hassaine 
suggests that the West has been — and probably still is — unprepared to 
fend off the Islamist threat. “On September 11, I was happy in one way,” he 
admits. He was, of course, horrified by the attacks, but “for years I’ve 
been trying to warn people about what the Islamists are doing. Now I know 
George Bush is with me. Now I know Tony Blair is with me. ” In the early 
1990s, during Algeria’s brief flirtation with democracy, Hassaine was an 
official in the populist hotchpotch of opposition groups known as the 
Islamic Salvation Front, or FIS. He quit when he realised that the party’s 
chosen path to power was a campaign of violence and murder. “The policemen 
first. Then the journalists. They had lists of people to be killed,” he 
says. More than 120 foreign citizens were murdered. A car bomb was driven 
into the national police headquarters in 1995, killing 42 and wounding 265. 
Entire villages were massacred. Human rights organisations estimate that up 
to 100,000 Algerians have been killed since 1992. “They started to kill 
everyone,” says Hassaine. “Kill, kill, as much as you can. How can I 
explain this to Westerners? These kind of people, they had been brainwashed 
in Afghanistan. When I left Algeria, people wanted to kill me. My closest 
friend, 35 of my colleagues, had been killed by Islamists. They were taking 
babies and putting them in ovens.” Hassaine says the West’s mistake was to 
view such atrocities as an internal matter for Algeria. In fact, the 
extremists behind them were already feeding Osama bin Laden’s al-Qaeda 
network. In 1994, Hassaine and his family fled to London. “I was not going 
to let my baby get put in an oven,” he says. He was able to leave only by 
making a deal with the Algerian security services to help them spy on 
Islamic extremists. Then in 1998, as France prepared to host the World Cup, 
its law enforcement agencies anticipated terrorist violence. A man from the 
French Embassy in London, whom Hassaine knew only as Jerome, recruited him 
to obtain information about any possible attacks. “They were giving me the 
chance to get revenge,” Hassaine says. A bin Ladenist newspaper was set up, 
with Hassaine as editor. “People knew me as a journalist in Algeria, so it 
was a nice cover.” He began providing the French with as much information 
as he could glean from days and nights spent praying, eating, talking with 
various extremists. When the French didn’t come through with an offer of 
citizenship, Hassaine volunteered to help the British. In 1999, Special 
Branch asked him to infiltrate the now notorious Finsbury Park mosque in 
North London, where the imam, Abu Hamza, preached jihad to the likes of the 
shoebomber Richard Reid. Hassaine was already familiar with Abu Hamza and 
his ally Abu Qatada — both of them among the top supporters in London of 
Islamic extremists in Algeria. He held them responsible in no small way for 
what had happened in his home country. According to the BBC, Abu Qatada has 
circulated a pamphlet revelling in the murders of Algerian policemen, while 
Abu Hamza once issued a fatwa urging the assassination of various Middle 
Eastern public figures as well as a two-year-old Algerian child. In
