George Bush Senior & Junior Threatened By Counter-Forces To Halt Global War Plans June 2, 2008, Battle For World: The Al Gore plan Benjamin Fulford spoke about was played, and Bush Senior and Bush Junior got scared! Bush Junior promised to finish out his term without making anymore trouble. All the media hype about an Iran attack is to continue fear and war fervor. The corporate media executives (i.e. at FoxNews, CNN, MSNBC, etc.) loyal to the warmongering neo-conservatives are maintaining and pushing the fear mongering news onto the American public. If the U.S. media pushed on the American people that Iran was attacked by America, Israel and England, and you see China and Russia do nothing, that means there was an agreement, and the Iran attack is for media show -- Hollywood stuff. If the U.S. military is insane enough to truthfully attack Iran, the Russians and the Chinese will hit-back hard and the results will be very public. I can tell you that nuclear weapons will be used on the low end and the high-end will see god-like forces. Benjamin Fulford: The Dawn Of American And World Freedom Is Close U.S. Election News – Obama, Hillary, McCain & Bloomberg Mar. 13, 2008, Battle For World: There is no first-choice intention to make Obama president! If he becomes president it is out of desperation. Obama ran because Hillary is running for President. Hillary is a strong contender, she is hated by the City of London, and she is difficult to destroy. The London financiers are loading up Obama's campaign with money to run Hillary into the ground and have her quit! They are laboring very hard to do this. Obama will then be taken out with scandals linked to Chicago organized crime and possibly some sex stuff. It will be like a Rudy Giuliani takedown. The Republican presidential frontrunner McCain, if he chooses Bloomberg to be his vice-president, the ticket would get heavy financial backing from the City of London. If Bloomberg comes into the picture with McCain, that is not a good sign. McCain's background is rather interesting, in that he's linked to the Pacific oriented NAVAL tradition of the United States Military and he listens to them. If he becomes president, he is likely to do good things such as reverse George W. Bush Jr. polices if he listens to that NAVAL tradition. However, if McCain decides not to support the City of London agenda, plans will be put in motion to humiliate or remove him from office, because him disobeying the City of London orders creates problems for himself. The City of London and the United States NAVAL tradition have different ideas. Obama's last hurrah, the conclusion as to whether Obama is listening will be determined by May-June 2008. The scenario is for a Hillary-Obama ticket, with Obama as vice-president. Hillary knows this, and is trying to keep that prospect alive. She's trying to keep Obama inline, and Americans saw her do that in a debate mentioning Rezco. Obama is afraid that he will be assassinated if he does not fulfill the plans outlined by the City of London. Maybe he and his handlers are waiting for the right moment (and I guess with some help) to settle things with Hillary. Questions and Answers from Email: >mcCain is the republican front runner. Others imply a stealth presidential candidate. If Hillary quits, then Obama is taken out by scandal later. Bloomberg enters the race. The clandestine objective is to make Bloomberg president. McCain would be taken out by some sort of medical problem said the source. If Hillary is taken out by Obama, and Bloomberg is double-crossed by McCain, by him choosing someone else for his vice-president, then the City of London would use Bloomberg paired with Obama. If that scenario plays, I do not have any information yet about how they will deal with Obama if he happens to become the elected/selected president. Obama knows that he's being used. The world financial elites prefer Bloomberg and this was echoed at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. >What I am reading is McCain will Well, he can try. If he cannot be blackmailed out of it, he creates problems for himself. >but Bloomberg will be his VP Want to be president. The people behind him are trying to teardown McCain to have him give in, to pledge secretly to pick Bloomberg as his running mate after Hillary is taken out. If the McCain teardown campaign does not work, the desperate option is Obama. >and McCain will be killed... Or resign… Pressed by NAVAL traditions to carryout policies not in agreement with the City of London. Who could do to him like what they did to President Bill Clinton as a warning. American Neo-Cons & Allies Pressuring China Jan. 25, 2007, Yahoo: Pressure is being put on China over its pending decision to diversify in Euros by American neo-cons and their allies. The Associated Press is reporting that "gunmen stormed the local finance offices of the government-owned Chinese National Petroleum Company (located in) Bayelsa in southern Nigeria on Thursday, abducting seven Chinese employees and stealing a large amount of cash. But most of the kidnappings in recent weeks haven't been claimed by the group (known as The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta), which said IT WAS NOT BEHIND THURSDAY'S ATTACK. (Then who was this mystery commando group that attacked the Chinese oil company?) Along...the Chinese (captured, were) about two dozen Filipinos, two Italians, one Briton, one American and a Lebanese... China is boosting ties in Nigeria and across Africa, seeking to secure energy and other resources for its booming economy." (Also read China's Anti-Satellite Technology & The U.S. Dollar.) China Says Major Shift On Dollar Policy Coming Jan. 23, 2007, NewsMax: "Some very worrisome news came out of China this Saturday - but it got a little more than a blip in the U.S. press. Considering that the bulk of China's reserves are in U.S. dollars, it should send tremors about the future of the greenback. The dollar has been reeling in recent years. A shift by China out of dollars - as Wen is hinting - could be catastrophic. It is of note that the Financial Times placed its report on the China development smack in the center of Monday page one. Why would U.S. media wish to play down such an important item? While we believe that in the short-term the dollar may not be hurt - the item should send tremors down the backs of U.S. dollar investors planning to hold the greenback over the long-term. Later the article observed that, ". . . currency traders are hypersensitive to any signs Beijing is losing its appetite for the U.S. currency." We believe that China's actions are set to influence such key items as the U.S. dollar (and therefore U.S. interest rates), world commodity prices, gold, and U.S. defense strategy and spending."

In a further signal from the American War Leaders of their intentions on attacking Iran they have ordered a massive escalation of their fighting forces to the Iraqi-Iranian border and put as their new Commander for all their Land, Air and Sea Forces one of their top Navy Admirals, William J. Fallon, who is to lead the combined US Naval and Air Forces attacks against Iranian Forces. These reports further detail that the British Prime Minister Blair has refused the pleas of the US War Leaders for thousands of more British troops, and has further ‘warned’ the Americans that upon their attack upon Iran he might order a total withdrawal of all British forces from both Iraq and Afghanistan. Russian Intelligence reports further detail that Turkey has agreed to allow over-flights by Israeli warplanes to use Turkish airspace in the initial air assault upon Iranian nuclear facilities in exchange for the American War Leaders agreeing to allow Turkish Forces to target Kurdish Rebel bases in Northern Iraq. The US War Leaders have furthered guaranteed the Turkish government that all Israeli over-flights will be overseen by US Air Force Fighter Jets, and which have now arrived at their Turkish Bases. In an 'about face' from their previous positions of not allowing Turkish Military attacks upon the Kurdish peoples in Iraq the US Ambassador to Turkey, Ross Wilson, has also just stated, "It is Turkey's decision whether to conduct a cross border operation to Iraq." In the most catastrophic scenario being put forth about this impending escalation of World War III by US and Israeli War Leaders is the use of nuclear weapons. To the greater significance of these events it remains to the Iranians, and who are not only anticipating this attack by April, but are, horrifically, prepared to join with the US and Israel in bring upon the whole World a nuclear nightmare..."

Bush Governmental Crisis - Mutiny Ahead? Jan. 7, 2007, tbrnews.org: "A number of lower staffers have abruptly quit, Harriet Myers has quit and others are going the same way. Now why is this? Because it is now very obvious that Bush has lost his marbles, if he ever had any, and we are headed into a major governmental crisis. Bush has absolutely no intention of leaving Iraq. Any general officer who disagrees with his stupid "surge" is promptly fired and others warned that Bush will fire them if they open their mouths. The brass at the Pentagon and the troops in the field are approaching open mutiny. He has deliberately antagonized the new Congress and when he is told that the people want an end to the Iraq horrors, he claims the public still want him to "stay the course. Hate mail and death threats are pouring in here in unprecedented numbers and the Secret Service can't begin to keep up with them. There is no question that very soon, there will be a major confrontation between Bush on one side and the military and Congress on the other. And be sure Bush will lose." (Also read articles Bush Administration Scandal Year and Republicans Feeling The Heat.) Pending Real Estate & Dollar Collapse Dec. 17, 2006, Prison Planet: Bob Chapman of the The International Forecaster newsletter: ""The Fed is in a very tough spot here," Chapman wrote, "If they raise rates, the real estate market will collapse, and if they lower rates, the dollar will collapse." Chapman believes the U.S. economy entered a recession in February. In his newsletter of Dec. 9 he predicted the Fed would hold interest rates at 5.25 percent. Almost immediately after the announcement of the Fed's decision, the dollar weakened to a new 20-month low against the euro, with currency markets reportedly pricing in the expectation the Fed will be forced to lower rates next year to bolster the economy. Following the announcement by the Fed, the U.S. Dollar Index, or USDX, also dropped, with the dollar going below 83. A dollar collapse is imminent, Chapman declared. "If the dollar breaks through 78.33 on the USDX," Chapman answered, "my guess is the dollar will go through a 35-percent correction, which would put it at 55." As WND reported earlier this week, in an unusual move, the Bush administration is sending virtually the entire economic "A-team" to visit China for a "strategic economic dialogue" in Beijing Thursday and Friday. But Chapman doubts the trip will help the Fed to engineer a slow dollar slide. "The Chinese are going to do what the Chinese want to do, not what we want them to do," he said. "I believe the Chinese are going to send Treasury Secretary Paulson and Fed Chairman Bernanke home packing, with little or nothing to show for the trip." How severe will the coming dollar collapse be? "People in the U.S. are going to be hit hard," Chapman warned. "In the severe recession we are entering now, Bush will argue that we have to form a North American Union to compete with the Euro.""

United States Bankrupt In Two Years Oct. 25, 2006, Prison Planet: "Vidal predicted within the next two years, "the bankruptcy of the United States of America," citing vast unchecked payments to corporations like Halliburton and spiraling inflation." Jewish Elite Frank Buckman Praised Nazism & Fascism
""Youth With A Mission," the global religious group that cooked up the hoax "The Path to 9/11," a docudrama aired on ABC Sept. 10-11, is, underneath its public cover, the organization created in the 1920s-1930s by the notorious pro-Nazi Frank Buchman. Above cover, it was known during and after World War II as Moral Rearmament, and also as the National Prayer Breakfast Movement or "The Fellowship" or "The Family." This imperial agency was crafted by the British and Dutch royal and financier faction that backed fascism and sought a world government in tandem with Hitler. After the death of President Franklin Roosevelt, the Buchman initiative was based at Caux, Switzerland, on Lake Geneva, and was inserted into Washington in aid of its sponsors' drive for power over U.S. policy. Founder Frank Buchman described his agenda in an interview with a New York newspaper, the World Telegram, published on Aug. 26, 1936 under the headline, "Hitler Or Any Fascist Leader Controlled By God Could Cure All Ills Of World, Buchman Believes": "I thank Heaven for a man like Adolf Hitler, who built a front line of defense against the anti-Christ of Communism," [Buchman] said today in his book-lined office in the annex of Calvary Church, Fourth Ave. and 21st St. "My barber in London told me Hitler saved Europe from Communism. That's how he felt. Of course, I don't condone everything the Nazis do. Anti-Semitism? Bad, naturally. I suppose Hitler sees a Karl Marx in every Jew. "But think what it would mean to the world if Hitler surrendered to the control of God. Or Mussolini. Or any dictator. Through such a man God could control a nation overnight and solve every last, bewildering problem." Buchman gave the New York interview having just returned from meetings of his "Oxford Group" in England; and from the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin, where he had been the guest of SS leader Heinrich Himmler. (Buchman had gone to Nazi rallies at Nuremberg with Himmler, whom Buchman claimed to be training in religion.) "Dr. Buchman," wrote the World Telegram reporter, "listens quietly to 'God's plans' for a half hour or so every day, usually before breakfast.... "The world needs the dictatorship of the living spirit of God.... God is a perpetual broadcasting station.... What we need is a supernatural network of live wires across the world to every last man, in every last place, in every last situation...." "Human problems aren't economic.... They could be solved within a God-controlled democracy, or perhaps I should say a theocracy, and they could be solved through a God-controlled Fascist dictatorship."" Russian Gen. Colonel Ivashov Says World Financial Bankers Want World War III To Erupt
* creation of conditions for strikes against Iran, seizure of Iran's oil and gas fields, and establishment of control over their transportation routes (this also being one of the most important instruments of dictatorship); * preparations to remake the map of the Greater Middle East, by force. Among the more particular objectives are the disruption of plans for transforming Lebanon into a stable economic and financial zone in the Middle East; kind of a central bank for the Arab countries, which would work on completely different terms, than the world financial system does. The United States (oil and military-industrial capital, which is in power) has been doing the will of the primary party, seeking to achieve a number of particular objectives: * they have been strengthening their position as world gendarme, along with the role of armed force in dealing with international problems; * they have been working to provoke a situation for carrying out strikes against Iran; * they have been preparing for the USA itself to replace the UN Security Council; * they have been rallying the American public around preparations for new military adventures, while trying to distract people from problems in Iraq and Afghanistan. Great Britain has an interest in increasing its influence in traditional zones of British political activity, while pushing French interests out of the Middle East. Israel has increasingly been trying out the role of strike unit for the world financial elite, while laying claim to consolidating its status as an "untouchable" state. Israel's current objectives: * maintain constant instability in the surrounding Arab countries, as a condition for its own survival; * eliminate the military capabilities of states and movements that are hostile to Tel Aviv; * provoke inter-Arab and inter-Muslim frictions and clashes (according to the "divide and conquer" principle); * shift the attention of the Israeli population from domestic problems, to military operations, in order to strengthen the regime of E. Olmert; * defeat and discredit radical Islamic movements (Hamas, Hezbollah), which have been gaining in political weight; * tie the USA to Israel political approaches; * satisfy the demands of Israeli military men for increased defense spending, and strengthen the position of the Army in Israeli society. Lebanon and the Hezbollah organization are more the recipients of, than players in the launching of the large-scale Israeli operation. True, Lebanese society and the government had reached consensus on the following points: * liberation of Israeli-occupied land in southern Lebanon (the Shabba farms); * freeing of hundreds of Lebanese, who are languishing in Israeli jails; * humiliation of the Israeli aggressor. In the context of the dramatic events in the Middle East, international and Russian media mention Iran and Syria, as parties with an interest in unleashing Israeli aggression against Lebanon. The former supposedly wants to deflect attention from its own nuclear program and the transfer of the Iranian nuclear dossier to the UN Security Council. Syria supposedly hopes to avoid being punished for the death of R. Hariri. Neither the USA nor Israel has succeeded in creating conditions for strikes against Iran. Arguments like "Iran is helping Hezbollah" are failing to receive serious public support in America, not to mention the international community. Moreover, the USA got a serious slap in the face from the Lebanese government, which refused to receive Secretary of State C. Rice in Beirut. Israel is not succeeding in toppling the Hamas government in Palestine, while the operation against the Palestinians and the Lebanese has not brought about solidarity on the part of the Israeli population with the E. Olmert government. If the conflict drags out, the problems of Israeli refugees, the deaths of civilians, and their sitting in camps and bunkers may lead to an explosion in Israeli itself." U.S.-Israel Planning 'October Surprise' Aganist Syria
According to the source, while Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert is under pressure from saner elements within his government coalition to refuse to cooperate in the White House wingding, elements of the plans are moving forward. The recent bombing of the United Nations monitoring post inside Lebanon, in which four UNIFIL observers were killed, may have been related to preparations for an Israeli military strike across the border into Syria, to plant the fake WMD. According to the source, the WMD would be "discovered" by U.S. military units operating along the Iraq-Syria border, at a moment close enough to the November midterm elections in the U.S. to affect the outcome. Lyndon LaRouche warned today that if Israel goes ahead with this stunt, it could trigger World War III by miscalculation. According to the source, the Bush White House is desperate over prospects of a major political defeat in the Congressional elections in November. Another aspect of the effort to survive the midterm vote, according to the source, is plans to increase American troop strength in Iraq now, to achieve a breakthrough that might allow a withdrawal of American forces on the eve of the November elections. Plans are being discussed to bring seasoned combat troops from South Korea into Iraq for a "summer offensive," the source added, noting that British Prime Minister Tony Blair also came under pressure from Bush to augment the British military force inside Iraq. Reports of White House "October Surprise" schemes have also come from top level U.S. intelligence sources, who have identified Pentagon ongoing contacts with notorious Iran-Contra swindler Manucher Ghorbanifar as tied to a separate scheme to plant "made-in Baghdad" WMD inside Iraq, towards the same goal."
How Israel Provoked The Lebanon War July 25, 2006, Battle For World: The war over Hezbollah kidnapping two Israeli soldiers is not true. The soldiers went into the Lebanon border and were captured by Hezbollah. It's amazing how the western media lies. So the war was instigated by Israel. Read the original Associated Press article: "Hezbollah Captures 2 Israeli Soldiers By JOSEPH PANOSSIAN , 07.12.2006, 05:41 AM: The militant group Hezbollah captured two Israeli soldiers during clashes Wednesday across the border in southern Lebanon, prompting a swift reaction from Israel, which sent ground forces into its neighbor to look for them. The forces were trying to keep the soldiers' captors from moving them deeper into Lebanon, Israeli government officials said on condition of anonymity. The Israeli military would not confirm the report. Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert called an emergency Cabinet meeting and said Lebanese guerrillas would pay a "heavy price" for Wednesday's attacks. "These are difficult days for the state of Israel and its citizens," Olmert said. "There are people ... who are trying to test our resolve. They will fail and they will pay a heavy price for their actions."" Netanyahu & Cheney Conspiring To Start World War III
This war is not intended to make Israel safe from Hamas, Hezbollah terrorism, or Iran's alleged intentions to build nuclear weapons, but is rather a drive by the synarchist financial forces represented by the likes of George Shultz and Felix Rohatyn, who stand behind Cheney and Netanyahu. Their aim is to escalate a global clash of civilizations, to maintain their political and financial hegemony, as their own global financial system crumbles. Israel is their chosen instrument to launch a war against Syria and Iran, now that U.S. military forces are bogged down in Cheney's insane Iraq war. Their war plan is well known to readers of EIR, and is the policy the Bush Administration has been implementing, with disastrous results, for the last three years. This is based on the notorious policy paper, "A Clean Break: New Strategy for Securing the Realm," which was presented to Netanyahu when he became Israeli Prime Minister in 1996. Its authors included the "Prince of Darkness" Richard Perle, former Defense Department official Douglas Feith, and neo-conservative fanatics such as David and Meyrav Wurmser. That document called for a "clean break from the slogan 'comprehensive peace' to a traditional balance of power." They called for Israel to "seize the initiative along its northern border," against Hezbollah, Syria, and Iran, including "striking at select targets in Syria proper" (emphasis in the original). Hezbollah is a Lebanese umbrella organization of Islamic Shi'ite groups, and the Shi'ites are the largest religious bloc in Lebanon. Now a second front has been opened on the Israel-Lebanon border. Contrary to media reports, Hezbollah members did not cross into Israeli territory to "kidnap" two Israeli soldiers, as the media spin claims. The captured Israeli soldiers were part of a group patrolling inside Lebanese territory. Like the capture of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit, their capture became a pretext to launch a large military operation against Hezbollah. Another factor to be considered is that, according to the July 13 Jerusalem Post, the high-alert status that the northern border had been under since the capture of Shalit three weeks ago, was lifted only three days prior to the Hezbollah capture of two Israeli soldiers. According to a report in the July 13 Israeli daily Ha'aretz, the Israel military had approved a plan for a major exercise along the Israeli-Lebanese border, based on a scenario of a Hezbollah capture of Israeli solders, after which Israel would respond with a heavy air and land assault into southern Lebanon to destroy Hezbollah. It is this plan which is now being carried out. As of this writing, Israel has begun to mobilize its reserves, including a full division, to be deployed on the already heavily fortified northern border. The Israeli military has similar contingency plans for a strike against Syria. These plans have been the basis of exercises for the last two to three years. While Israel has bombed targets in Beirut and put the entire country under a siege by air and sea, Hezbollah forces have launched Katyusha rockets into Israeli towns in northern Israel. The head of Hezbollah, Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah, has declared that the Israeli soldiers will be released only in an exchange of prisoners. The conflict is now vectored to escalate, and spread to Syria. Israel's intention to attack Syria and Iran has been mooted by several Bush Administration spokesmen, each of whom immediately blamed Syria and Iran. Bush himself, while meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel on July 13, declared that "Israel has a right to self-defense." The most obvious proof that the Bush Administration wants a new war does not lie in its bellicose statements against Iran, Syria, Hamas, or Hezbollah, however. It lies in the fact that it has not lifted a finger either to stop, or even mediate the crisis. Through its Ambassador to the United Nations, the non-confirmable neo-con zealot John Bolton, the Bush Administration is even preventing the issue from being brought before the United Nations Security Council." United States Special Forces Seized Control Of Israeli Nuclear Weapons Complex
These reports detail that this action by the American Military Leadership was in direct response to China’s President Hu's 'threat to the American President that should the Straight of Hormoz be blockaded by Iran, due to the escalating crisis between Israel and its Muslim neighbors, China would consider that action as a ‘declaration of war’ against the Chinese people. The America response to this 'threat' from China, coming from China's President Hu in his 'face-to-face' meeting with the United States President Bush at the G-8 Summit, was to assure both China's President Hu, and Russia's President Putin, that the American Military Leadership would 'secure' Israel's nuclear weapons and limit their, Israel's, incursion into Lebanon. In return for the American Military Leadership's securing Israel's nuclear weapons both President Putin and President Hu have allowed a '72-hour-window' for Israel to secure its Northern Border with Lebanon, with the 'understanding' that Israel will not attack either Syria or Iran, and whom Israel has blamed for being the instigators behind this current war. These reports further detail that the American President has dispatched his Secretary of State to report to Israel's Prime Minister Olmert the full details of this agreement, but which these reports state that the government of Israel is in 'violent' opposition to. We expect another update within the next 24 hours on these issue, and which we will report to you once received." Battle For World Editor: China is very upset about the war that is going on in the Middle East instigated by the United States Little Zionist faction, and has made it known that if Israel causes World War III to erupt, that China would attack and destroy Israel. And the Russians also have made it known that if World War III erupts by the United States Little Zionist faction, upon the Earth a terrible omen would be unleashed. So the United States Little Zionist faction don't have much friends in the world other than their propaganda media mouthpiece. Venezuela's President Chavez Says U.S.A. Backing Of Israel Is Taking The World Toward Holocaust
""The fundamental blame falls again on the U.S. empire. It's the empire that armed and supported the abuses of the Israeli elite, which has invaded, abused and defied the United Nations for a long time," Chavez said in a speech during a military act in Caracas. "I'll seize this opportunity to condemn categorically and fully the aggression that the Israeli elite is carrying out against innocents over there in the Middle East," he said. "Are we going to bomb cities and tell them that we won't stop bombing until they return the soldier? That's crazy," he said. "Worse, it's craziness with nuclear bombs. (The Israelis) have their weapons of mass destruction and nobody criticizes them, nobody says anything because the empire is behind them," Chavez said. U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice urged Israel on Thursday to exercise restraint in its attacks against Lebanese targets and demanded Syria press Hizbollah guerrillas to stop attacking Israel."
The United States Is Heading For Bankruptcy July 15, 2006, Telegraph: "The United States is heading for bankruptcy, according to an extraordinary paper published by one of the key members of the country's central bank. A ballooning budget deficit and a pensions and welfare timebomb could send the economic superpower into insolvency, according to research by Professor Laurence Kotlikoff for the Federal Reserve Bank of St Louis, a leading constituent of the U.S. Federal Reserve. Prof Kotlikoff said that, by some measures, the U.S. is already bankrupt. "To paraphrase the Oxford English Dictionary, is the United States at the end of its resources, exhausted, stripped bare, destitute, bereft, wanting in property, or wrecked in consequence of failure to pay its creditors," he asked." U.S. Poses Top Threat To World Peace, Says Rep. John Murtha
Bilderberg To U.S. & Israel Do Not Attack Iran
Interest Rates To Rise & Many Americans To Lose Their Homes In Months Ahead June 23, 2006, American Free Press: "Bilderberg expects interest rates to rise and many Americans to lose their homes in the months ahead. Meanwhile, they hope they can pressure President Bush to refrain from an all-out invasion of Iran while maintaining oil prices at their current record-high levels of about $70 a barrel. Timothy Geithner, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, predicted rising interest rates and difficulties for families that have obtained adjustable rate mortgages, or ìvariableî interest rates. Many are likely to lose their homes as rising home mortgage rates add hundreds of dollars to their monthly payments, he said. While most listened solemnly and some expressed concern, one was heard to say, "stupid Americans deserve their fate." Many Americans, especially young families, have been buying expensive homes at low but "variable" interest rates. Others have been paying just the interest owed on their homes and not the principal. They are the most vulnerable, Geithner said. Some have paid little or nothing down. Some institutions ìlendî buyers the down payment. When home construction peaks and prices start downward, many will find they owe more on their home than it is worth in the marketplace. They will also find their mortgageóeven ìinterest-onlyî paymentsóare unaffordable. The banks will get the homes back and sell them again. Again, the term "stupid Americans" was heard among clucks of sympathy or silent indifference. According to one source, no concern was expressed by Allan Hubbard, assistant to President Bush for economic policy." Iran Strike Set For June Or July
U.S., Israeli Agents Operating Inside Iran Now May 19, 2006, Uruknet: "Behind the increasingly shrill rhetoric and saber rattling over Iran’s nuclear ambitions America and Israel are engaged in a secret war against Iran that has echoes of the years when the CIA supported the Afghan mujahideen against the Soviet Union. This time, the United States and Israel are running covert operations with the help of Kurdish militias and rebel Iranian fighters. For some observers, training and arming Islamic fighters smacks of the days of Soviet rule in Afghanistan. Now the U.S. military, with Israeli commandos lending a hand, is arming and secretly training a different breed of mujahideen, or Islamic fighters—Kurdish militias with links to ethnic Kurdish communities in Iran and Syria, and fighters from the Iranian Mujahideen-e-Khalq (MEK), which has bases in southern Iraq and has provided the United States with information about the Iranian military and Iran’s nuclear sites. From the perspective of Washington and Tel Aviv, the history of the Kurds makes them ideal recruits for a covert war against Iran and Syria. As part of a covert scheme to destabilize and soften up the Iranian regime for possible Special Forces attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities, Washington has turned to disaffected Iranian Kurds for help and to Iranian dissidents in the MEK. It was Israel’s neo-con friends in Washington who once believed a new Iraq would be Israel’s best ally, but the more that vision has turned to nightmare, the more Israel has looked to the creation of a separate Kurdish state in Iraq as the next best thing. To that end, Israeli special forces and Mossad have been training and recruiting Kurds for clandestine operations and surveillance in Iran and Syria. The advantage of having Kurdish fighters carry out operations is that they can easily blend into ethnic Kurdish communities and sow dissent." Rove Indicted, Cheney In Trouble May 14, 2006, Truthout: Truthout is reporting that "Karl Rove was indicted on charges of perjury, lying to investigators. An announcement by Fitzgerald is expected to come this week, sources close to the case said. However, the day and time is unknown. Randall Samborn, a spokesman for the special prosecutor was unavailable for comment. In the past, Samborn said he could not comment on the case." And that "notes are said to reveal close Cheney interest in a critic of Iraq policy," that "Vice President Dick Cheney made handwritten notations on a July 2003 newspaper column that indicate he was focused on a critic of the administration's Iraq policy, according to a court filing in the C.I.A. leak case. ...Mr. Fitzgerald wants to use the notations to support the prosecution's contention that Mr. Libby lied to investigators and a grand jury when he testified that he had learned of Ms. Wilson's existence from reporters. Prosecutors have said that Mr. Libby, who has been charged with perjury, learned about Ms. Wilson's role from several people, including Mr. Cheney." Iranian President's Letter Highlights 9/11 Inside Job May 12, 2006, Prison Planet: Excerpt from Iranian President Ahmadinejad's letter to George W. Bush: ""September eleven was not a simple operation." "Could it be planned and executed without coordination with intelligence and security services – or their extensive infiltration? Of course this is just an educated guess." "Why have the various aspects of the attacks been kept secret? Why are we not told who botched their responsibilities? And, why aren’t those responsible and the guilty parties identified and put on trial? All governments have a duty to provide security and peace of mind for their citizens." "It is now time for all governments who still operate outside of the control of the Globalists to come forward and join humanity in unveiling the real terrorists who are attempting to deform the world into a prison planet." "On a governmental level the challenge is here before you. Either scream from the rooftops about government orchestrated terrorism or sit back and watch your country become a victim of it as it is wrestled away from your hands and placed in the domain of a black and cancerous global dictatorship.""

Asia Getting Ready To Dump U.S. Dollar May 8, 2006, Bloomberg: "Li Yong, China's vice minister for finance, said he had heard a "rumor'' that the U.S. dollar was headed for a 25 percent drop. If the gossip was true, the consequences would be "shocking,'' he said. ...Well, what are you going to do about it?'' The answer to that question has already begun taking shape: Asia may be getting ready to fix its currencies to a local anchor, dumping the region's unofficial dollar peg. ...Asian nations, China among them, are preparing for a scenario where the dollar does indeed collapse under the weight of a record U.S. current account deficit."

I'm also convinced that many Americans hate the Iraqis, not just the insurgents but all Iraqis... What a mess." As reported by China’s Xinhua News Service in their article titled "British soldier quits army in Iraq over "illegal" US tactics", and which says, "A Special Air Service (SAS) soldier from Britain has refused to fight in Iraq and left the Army over the "illegal" tactics of United States troops and the policies of coalition forces. Ben Griffin, 28, who spent two years with the SAS, told his commander after staying three months in Baghdad that he was no longer prepared to fight with American forces, the Sunday Telegraph reported. He said he had witnessed "dozens of illegal acts" by U.S. troops, which he claimed regarding all Iraqis as sub-human. Many innocent civilians were arrested in night-time raids and interrogated by American soldiers, imprisoned in the notorious Abu Ghraib prison, or handed over to the Iraqi authorities and "most probably" tortured, he added. "I did not join the British Army to conduct American foreign policy," said the soldier. This is the first time an SAS soldier has refused to go into combat and quit the Army on moral grounds, said the report."" U.S. Imperialism: The National Security State April 23, 2006, LaRouchePub: "The project for the imperial Presidency, garrison state, and imperial foreign policy, was advanced after World War II by Presidents Harry Truman, Lyndon Johnson, and Richard Nixon. For five decades, the project has relied on the manipulation of fear, and the creation of "emergency" conditions, through the systematic deception of the United States public and Congress about the international situation and foreign threats. Today, according to current official United States government policy statements such as the just-released 2006 Quadrennial Defense Review, the former "Soviet Threat" and "Red China Threat" have been replaced now by the "Islamic Threat" and the "New China Threat." The war against Iraq is ongoing, while preventive wars against Iran and Syria are discussed and military conflict with China is anticipated. Second, I will turn to the Gaither Committee Report of 1957, the so-called "Missile Gap" of 1960, and the "Team B" Report of 1976. In all of these, we will trace the hand of Paul Nitze (1907-2004) as one of the primary instruments of the imperial faction in the United States who made a career of falsifying the so-called "Soviet Threat." Fifth, I will conclude with a consideration of the parallel between the imperial Presidency of Richard M. Nixon and that of George W. Bush. Although the United States in good faith demobilized rapidly after World War II, unlike Stalin's Soviet Union, certain circles in the United States planned to reverse this and remilitarize U.S. foreign policy with a view towards a global imperial policy from which they could personally profit. These "Establishment" circles, still with us today, contain representatives of finance, business, politics, academia, press, and the military. This faction, which I refer to as the "imperial faction," was described by President Dwight D. Eisenhower as the "military-industrial complex." President Eisenhower's work developing the United States Industrial War College and mobilization planning in the 1930s, and his later leadership in World War II, made him fully aware of the nexus between industry, high finance, and the military, both in the United States and in Europe. In the earliest phase of the post-World War II "Cold War," 1946-48, we had the constructive and balanced vision of Gen. George C. Marshall (1880-1959), who served as Truman's Secretary of State (1947-49) and as his Secretary of Defense (1950-51). As Secretary of State, Marshall tasked Ambassador George F. Kennan (1904-2005)—a career diplomat, Soviet specialist, and head of the newly created Policy Planning Staff—with developing post-war planning that would get Europe back on its feet economically, while at the same time promoting a democratic political evolution."" War Against Iran Is a British Policy April 23, 2006, LaRouchePub: "LaRouche: Well, first of all, the policy is a British policy, which certain people in the United States are connected to. For example, take the case of Dick Cheney, the Vice President. The Vice President is very close to Liz Symons, to whom he was introduced by his own wife, Lynne Cheney. And during the period, for example, between the time he was head of the Defense Department, under George Bush the First, and the time that he became the Vice President—and the acting president, practically—he negotiated certain contracts. So, the Liberal Imperialist crowd in London, which is the Blair-Jack Straw crowd, is actually the architect of this. But the architecture runs largely through international financial channels, such as George Shultz, who is a former Secretary of State, and who is the architect of the present Bush Administration: That is, the person who pulled it together to be elected. So, this is the key point from which this comes. It's an Anglo-American operation, but the policy itself, which is the British policy of the Arab Bureau, the so-called "anti-Islam policy," is what the motivation is. LaRouche: Yes. This is a pretext. The nuclear issue is not really the issue. And from Iran, you know that because you know what the negotiations are, particularly involving the Russians, involving also the Chinese interest in this, and the general Asian view of this matter. The nuclear issue is not the cause of the problem. The issue is, they want to have the problem. And therefore, they're using the nuclear negotiation as a pretext for an enlarged war in the entire region of Southwest Asia. LaRouche: Well, it's hard to say. It is not one of these things where you can predict exactly, it's going to go one way or the other. This is what we're trying to stop. Our view is to give Iran as much time to negotiate as they think necessary, because some of us understand what the issues are, and we don't want to create unnecessary complications for Iran internally, otherwise, at this time. So, let the negotiations proceed: I'm sure we'll come up with something, if we are patient. And that'll put the issue off the table. Q: You talked about London's involvement in this issue, but Jack Straw has time and again talked about peaceful means and diplomacy, in dealing with Iran's nuclear issue, and has praised Iran's previous government, and criticized its incumbent President for their approach. You think he is not sincere? LaRouche: I'm sure of it! After all, remember, you have in the history of Iran, you have things like the Sykes-Picot Treaty, which was authored by the British as a part of a process of getting World War I going. No, these fellows are not exactly honest. We know them very well. In a case like this, one must deal with the facts, without discussing sincerity. Q: Al Gore, in one of his recent speeches, said that America's political system moved toward decreasing the power of the Congress and the judicial system, and increasing the power of the Executive branch, that is, the President. Your comments in this regard, please? LaRouche: Oh, this is absolutely true. This is precise. This is a group, which is the same group which brought Hitler to power, among others, between 1922 and 1945; the same group which is represented by the Federalist Society inside the United States, which controls several Justices of the Supreme Court, has this policy. The point is they believe they can only go to a form of dictatorship, like that of the Hitler model or some similar model, as the only way they can govern in this period, and get their policies through. That is the policy of a group associated with Cheney, and with others in the United States and in London. But this Administration was created by George Shultz. Now, you look at George Shultz, you're looking at Halliburton, you're looking at Bechtel, you're looking at those kinds of international financier interests, which are very closely tied to the comparable interests in the British system, or the international system centered in London. And that's where it comes from. Cheney is only an errand boy. But, the reason he has not been dumped—remember, he's down, about 15% popularity in the United States, right now—the only reason he's not dumped so far, even though there's an effort by various of us in the United States to dump him, the reason is, is that he's got powerful backing from international financier interests, which are merely typified by George Shultz. For example, look at the question of the Netanyahu election in Israel. The word is that there's an attempt to make Netanyahu the virtual dictator of Israel, and therefore to use Israel as a weapon against its neighbors. Most factions in Israel won't do that. Netanyahu would do that. Netanyahu is very close to Dick Cheney. But! The guy behind Netanyahu is really George Shultz. So, there's where the danger lies there, and that's typical of the situation. And this policy had been kicking around for a long time. And with the collapse of the Soviet Union, the idea was we could go to the elimination of the nation-state, or the virtual elimination of the nation-state, and have what's called an ultramontane system, a globalized system in which an international financial interest runs the entire world. Every nation in Asia is targetted: for example, India is targetted, China is targetted, Russia's targetted, all of the leading nations of Asia are, in particular, targetted for dissolution of their present form of government. This is the program. Q: How do you see the difference between Democrats and Republicans, when it comes to Middle Eastern issues? LaRouche: Well, this—it's not quite that way. Let's take the case of Bill Clinton. Now, Bill Clinton is Bill Clinton: He's very intelligent. He represents a group of people in the United States, to which I generally turn out to be associated with in the Democratic Party. But we also work with Republicans, who are, shall we say, the sane Republicans who think pretty much as we do on most issues, particularly on war and peace. So, there is no simple U.S. policy on this question. There is something across party lines. Most Democrats would tend to agree with us on getting out of this Middle East mess. Clinton is a leading spokesman for that. There are people in the Senate, in particular, who are leading spokesmen for that. You have on the Republican— Q: I'm sorry, Mr. LaRouche. I'm sorry to interrupt you. Some observers believe that American administrations, whether Republicans or Democrats, have the same objective with regards to the Middle East, and just their approach differs. Do you agree? LaRouche: No, there is not. It's more complicated. We're a nation which has many tendencies in it. Sometimes, certain combinations are on top. The top domination tends to be the financial community, the financial interest, which is sometimes the opponent of our government. And that's what it is. Q: You have been skeptical about the 9/11 incident from the very beginning. After you, people like Thierry Meyssan, von Bülow, and Chossudovsky, have been in line with your idea. Do you have any new documents showing something about the facts lying behind the 9/11 incident? LaRouche: Well, I think some of your listeners who have ever done some hunting of animals would understand this better than most of our press people seem to understand it. What I said—before the inauguration of George Bush in January of 2001, I said, because of the financial crisis coming down, and the incompetence of a Bush Administration, we must expect soon, that there will be an incident like Hermann Göring setting fire to the Reichstag—in the attempt to establish a Bush dictatorship. Now, that happened. That's what 9/11 was. Somebody of the international forces which are controlled out of London and the U.S., these international forces decided to pull an attempt to establish a dictatorship in the United States. It did not succeed: But it came very dangerously close to succeeding. And that's what the fact is. LaRouche: Because it's a complicated situation. George W. Bush is not very intelligent. He does have certain sentimental reactions to things. And there's a big conflict within the Administration, now, on what the policy is. For example, most of the crowd around George Bush does not want to go to war. They would go to bluffing to get their way on an issue, but they do not actually want to go to a new war. Dick Cheney, on the other hand, the people behind him, want to go to a war! And they want to do anything possible to get to a war, right now. They are the ones trying to use Netanyahu as the alternative for an attack on Iran, whereas most forces in the United States are against getting into that kind of thing. It's that kind of situation. We have a complicated situation inside our government. We do not have unanimity. We have fights constantly, on the interpretation of policy, on the interpretation of words—it's a daily fight, and there is no simple consistency in the process." Milosevic Murder To Trigger East-West Conflict April 23, 2006, LaRouchePub (PDF): "Milosevic had been murdered in order to create a grave crisis in relations between the United States and Western Europe on the one side, and Russia and Asian powers on the other. Not only does the Milosevic murder threaten to trigger a new Balkan crisis, it comes at a moment when Russia is playing a pivotal strategic role in seeking a solution to the so-called "Iran affair." LaRouche was equally blunt in identifying the Synarcharist International as the author of the Milosevic murder. He named the current generation of Synarchists as the descendants of the London- and Paris-centered financier oligarchs who installed the Fascist and Nazi regimes in power in Europe during 1922-45. Today, this Synarchist International controls the European Central Bank, with its network of subsidiary private central banks. It is their Maastricht System that has all but destroyed the remnants of sovereign nation-states in continental Europe. Through the Blair government in Great Britain, they virtually control the Office of U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney." Cheney-Bush Administration Is Finished
Fools in our nation's capital, probably best typified by First Shooter, Vice President Dick Cheney, clearly have very little idea of what they're detonating. They simply follow the orders of their controllers, of people like George Shultz, and the international layers that Mr. Shultz represents. Cheney has become the butt of jokes across the nation. And, as we've said many times, over the course of the last week or two, perhaps the favorite parlor game in Washington these days, is guessing and betting on who will replace him. I think that the recent deterioration of the strategic situation on the ground in Iraq makes clear that we're running out of time. (Battle For World, editor: The Iraq situation is moving into the Civil War phase.) They can't fix what happened with Katrina--they won't even try. And we have 100 days, now, to the next hurricane season. And the Gulf Coast, of course, and Florida, and so forth, these areas will be hit. Nothing has been done, to improve the response over Katrina. Nothing--less than nothing! So, we have an utterly incompetent and terrible government--and mean-spirited, and stupid, and psychotic--all those wonderful qualities." American Policy Changed Towards Terrorism By George Shultz
Netanyahu's net worth to Shultz has been several-fold. As the leading voice of the Likud, he fingered Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin for assassination to stop the peace process. As Prime Minister, he used the "Clean Break" dossier to bury the Oslo Accords and spark the Intifada, lighting the fire that would start the "Clash of Civilizations." As Israel's Finance Minister, Netanyahu implemented a brutal fascist austerity program which put the final nail in the coffin, burying Israel's once thriving scientific and industrial economy. One of every four Israelis now lives in poverty. "Shultz told Netanyahu about the sharp debate between himself and Caspar Weinberger, who opposed the use of American and international force against terrorism...." Netanyahu and Shultz decided to hold an international conference on terrorism in Washington, D.C., at which Shultz would give the keynote and announce his new policy of pre-emptive use of force. The conference would be hosted by the Jonathan Institute for the International Study of Terrorism, named after Bibi's brother Yoni, who was killed in the Israeli anti-terrorist raid in Entebbe, Uganda. The chairman of the Institute was Benzion Netanyahu, Bibi's father. Ahrens served as Benzion's personal secretary, when the latter chaired the international Revisionist Movement after the death of Vladimir Jabotinsky. When Netanyahu took office as Prime Minister in 1996, he was handed the infamous "Clean Break" document which was issued by the Jerusalem-based Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies (IASPS). "Clean Break" called for the destruction of the Oslo Accords and regime change in Iraq, Iran, and Syria. Internal Revenue Service documents reveal that IASPS is financed by the San Francisco-based Koret Foundation. George Shultz is a key advisor to Koret, which is a mega-funder of the Hoover Institution and many of Shultz's projects. Netanyahu's mentor recruited young Zionists to the inner core of the Brit Habiryonim with a tract entitled "The Scroll of the Sicarri." The Sicarri were the Jewish fundamentalists who flourished at the time of the destruction of the Second Temple in Jerusalem, who armed themselves with daggers (Sica) under their cloaks to assassinate their opponents, both Roman and Jewish." Iran Expects Limited Military Strike By U.S. Cabal In Weeks Ahead Feb. 12, 2006, LaRouchePub: "The recent Iranian elections, in which Ahmadinejad won a majority of the estimated 25% of the Iranian eligible voters who turned out, set the Iranians on a confrontation course perfectly in sync with Britain's global game. Sources familiar with the ongoing internal power struggle in Tehran report that the Revolutionary Guard and militia circles behind Ahmadinejad, are out to provoke what they presume will be a "limited" military strike against the Islamic Republic, a strike that will enable them to consolidate power. "Nevertheless," LaRouche concluded, "the actions of Cheney and company, who are pushing a military showdown with Iran in the immediate weeks ahead, threaten to destroy the United States as a sovereign Republic, just as their recent antics to install Samuel Alito on the United States Supreme Court represented a large step towards ripping up the U.S. Constitution as a living document. Such actions border on treason." "We are staring at a confrontation," LaRouche warned, "more hideous than World War I, because the global financial and monetary system is already on the verge of vaporization, and any new military confrontation in the world's oil patch, particularly one involving the possible pre-emptive use of nuclear weapons, will trigger global war, chaos, and the unleashing of a full-scale new dark age. The fools in Washington, typified by Vice President Cheney, have no idea what they are detonating. They just blindly follow the orders of Synarchists like George Shultz. "Study the history," LaRouche said, "and you see the recurring pattern: The Seven Years' War, the British East India Company-orchestrated French Revolution, the Napoleonic Wars, the Crimean War, the British-manipulated U.S. Civil War, the British-backed French invasion of Mexico, then World War I and World War II, the Winston Churchill-orchestrated Cold War, the Indochina War. The British start wars in which they induce two parties to fight it out." The clock is now ticking towards a March 6 IAEA session, at which Dr. Mohammed ElBaradei will deliver his report on Iran's nuclear program. But the Feb. 4 vote virtually assures that, regardless of the content of the IAEA report, Iran will be referred to the Security Council for action, including sanctions or even military strikes. According to numerous media accounts, the confrontation over Iran's nuclear program was locked in on Jan. 31, at a private ministerial dinner in London at the home of British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw. Straw proposed to his counterparts from the United States, France, Russia, and China—the five permanent members, along with Great Britain, of the United Nations Security Council—that the Iranians be immediately referred to the Council for action "backing up the IAEA." Public accounts of the private dinner are sparse, but it is clear that Straw put the sanctions issue on the table, and then mediated between the "extremes" presented by Washington, on the one side, and Russia and China, on the other. According to news accounts, U.S. Secretary Condoleezza Rice pressed for an immediate Security Council referral and sanctions, while Russia and China insisted that the IAEA process be allowed to play out through March, while continued negotiations between Russia and Iran, with backup from Beijing, sought to head off a Security Council showdown. The essentials of the Washington/Tehran showdown were fully set as early as August 2005. At that time, LaRouche exposed Dick Cheney's "Guns of August," which were already aimed for a pre-emptive strike against Iran's purported nuclear weapons program. But the U.S. military institutions then intervened to leak details of the Administration's plans for a Strategic Command aerial attack on Iran, with a possible use of nuclear weapons, to knock out "hardened" targets. LaRouche's intervention at the time prevented such an attack while the U.S. Congress was in recess." U.S. To Attack Iran Late March, Says Russian MP & U.S. Behind Muslim Riots Feb. 6, 2006, PrisonPlanet: "A top Russian parliamentary leader has told Ekho Moskvy radio station that an attack on Iran is inevitable and that it will occur on March 28th. The leader of the Liberal Democrats Vladimir Zhirinovsky also believes that the Muslim riots were orchestrated by the US to garner European backing for the military strike. Also, Israeli acting Prime Minister Ehud Olmert stated that Iran would pay "a very heavy price" if the Islamic Republic defiantly resumes full-scale uranium enrichment to build nuclear weapons. Zhirinovsky told the Russian radio station that, "The war is inevitable because the Americans want this war. Any country claiming a leading position in the world will need to wage wars. Otherwise it will simply not be able to retain its leading position." "The date for the strike is already known — it is the election day in Israel (March 28). It is also known how much that war will cost,” said Zhirinovsky. Commenting on the Muslim riots sweeping the Middle East and Europe, Zhirinovsky said that the publication of the offensive cartoons was a planned psyop on the part of the US and aimed to “provoke a row between Europe and the Islamic world”. "It will all end with European countries thanking the United States and paying, and giving soldiers,” said Zhirinovsky. The possible inorganic manufactured nature of the riots has to be seriously considered. The three most offensive cartoons that caused the outrage were not even printed in the Danish Jyllands-Posten newspaper but were added in and handed out by Danish imams who “circulated the images to brethren in Muslim countries,” according to the London Telegraph." Feb. 13, 2006, PrisonPlanet, Russian MP Says Muslim Riots Were U.S. Provocation: ""It will all end with European countries thanking the United States and paying, and giving soldiers,” said Zhirinovsky. Although the riots have largely calmed, the build-up to a military strike on Iran is intense, with newspapers today reporting that the Pentagon had significantly advanced in its planning for bombing raids and submarine-launched ballistic missile attacks on the country." International Terrorism Does Not Exist Feb. 5, 2006, Rense: "General Leonid Ivashov was the Chief of Staff of the Russian armed forces when the September 11, 2001, attacks took place. This military man, who lived the events from the inside, offers an analysis which is very different to that of his American colleagues. As he did during the Axis for Peace 2005 conference, he now explains that international terrorism does not exist and that the September 11 attacks were the result of a set-up. What we are seeing is a manipulation by the big powers; this terrorism would not exist without them. He affirms that, instead of faking a "world war on terror", the best way to reduce that kind of attacks is through respect for international law and peaceful cooperation among countries and their citizens." Jan. 5, 2006, LaRouchePub: ""Impeach, impeachment, and impeachable are words now back in prominent usage, as the result of the antics of Dick Cheney and his patsy, George W. Bush," Lyndon LaRouche commented on Dec. 22. LaRouche was referring to the firestorm of Congressional and judicial reactions to the Vice President's openly totalitarian assertion that, as the result of the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, there are no Constitutional limits on the power of the U.S. Presidency. Cheney's defense of the right of the U.S. military and intelligence agencies to kidnap and torture suspected terrorists had already triggered a bipartisan, bicameral revolt by the U.S. Congress against the Vice President (see EIR Dec. 23, 2005, "Cheney Is the Albatross Around George Bush's Neck"), when the New York Times, on Dec. 16, revealed that President Bush, under Cheney's influence, had signed a secret order, shortly after 9/11, authorizing the National Security Agency (NSA) to spy on American citizens, without first obtaining a warrant from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. The 1978 Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act created the secret FISA court, to give judicial approval in those instances where surveillance of American citizens was warranted. In extreme cas |
