What we must not forget, is that clinton signed an executive order saying that we would absorb the first nuclear strike.


Somehow I missed this TRAITORS statement.OOOOOOHHHHHHHHH
I can't say what I really think.

[Rushmore Rocks]

Granny, I've read the same reports.

But, I think I would rather take my chances with "Gulf War Syndrome" than "West Nile Virus".

Guess it's a toss up. Don't really know which is worse.

But I've known more to die of WNV than GWS.

You add so very much to this thread. Don't ever leave us.

Robert Strange McNamara is an anti-American communist. It was his meddling from his position as Secretary of Defense that made such a horrible mess of Vietnam. He was determined to wipe out our entire inventory of bombs by plowing the jungles with a continuous stream of bombs. Nothing aimed at strategic or tactical targets. Just dropped for the purpose of wasting them. Put whatever comes from the mouth of this idiot in the commie idiot file.

I'm surprised the thing didn't list Ramsey Clark as a co-author. He is a fellow traveler in the commie approach.

Did ya'll see this...
Police and security officials have been alerted to the possibility of further violence in the South, with intelligence reports estimating as many as 30,000 young Muslims stand ready to attack government forces.

I have it on my "to do" list to gather up a list of natural first aid/home remedies - the only solution is to sleep less!

As far as natural anti-bug recipes, I don't know if anything is foolproof. But I use essential oils, I make my own mixture, and it seems to work for hubby. Mosquitoes don't like me very much ;-) - must be too bitter tasting for them!

I use primarily citronella (like in citronella candles), it is considered to be the most effective anti-mosquito essential oil. I also mix in (when I have them handy) eucalyptus, pennyroyal, and rosemary. The best way to use it is to mix the oils and dilute in water as a spray, or in some neutral oil such as olive oil as a rub. Reapply often especially when spraying, as the oils are volatile and evaporate.

There's a kind of oil called Neem oil which is considered a very good pesticide even, I have used the herb for illness but haven't tried the oil. If anyone finds it or researches it post the info. It is a very potent leaf.

Supposedly if a person eats a lot of garlic bugs don't like the taste - don't know if it's true or not. One thing mosquitoes (and other critters like yellowjackets) DO like is the smell of sweat and perfume. The sweeter the smell (regarding perfume, not the sweat!) the more they like it. How that works in with Skin so Soft, I don't know. Maybe they like natural perfumes since they smell like real flowers.

Best to wear the long sleeves and so on. I just saw in a catalog a hat with veil like a beekeeper's hat. If someone lives in a very mosquitoey area and has to be outside, that might be worth investigating. Looking silly and wearing bothersome headgear is preferable to catching a nasty disease.

If anyone wants the name/info of the catalog, ping me and I'll find it. They also have other interesting stuff.

Thank you.

Now for some googling, you will find much to think about after doing these searches. My eyes are done for the day on heavy reading, but I did check to see if these were as good as I recalled.

Do a plain, just type it in google search for:

who plans on bombing or striking the U.S. first?


adding the 1425 to the beginning is very good on this and on the following, they will be different articles on the list.

google:

who has missiles pointed at the United States?

Does Cuba have missiles pointed at the United States?

Dang these old eyes, this link is very interesting, reports on solving the mysteries of war and maybe UFO's, I spot read it and will finish it one of these days. There is a link at the top of the article to the rest of the report. Very old reports, and up to date too.

It took 5 attempts to get this URL to work, my fault, but hope you think it was worth it.

[WestCoastGal]

MD that is an amazing list. Thank you so much for keeping and researching all this information for us!!!! There were several that caught my eye, I will have to go back and check it out.

High five, kudos and hugs!!!

[Indie]

Granny, As usual, I agree 100% with your visions. I have felt all of the same things and I have no doubt they will come to pass. The US will fall, and it will be due to the gradual decline of self-reliance, morality and fortitude to fight. The very fact that Klinton signed the "WE WILL ABSORB FIRST STRIKE" was all our enemies needed to realize a nuclear attack was winnable, for this doctrine is the only thing that makes it winnable. Russia will have destroyed our people, our will and our cities, and what few we launch will have destroyed only a few EMPTY missile silos and a few abandoned military installations.

AGAIN...we have been sold out by the legal profession...the very lawyers that control the money and government in our country...with the aid of the sheeple.

There are those on FR that continue to ostracize Russia and communism as "has beens" etc...they are merely blind, and ignorant to our fate, and to its cause.

'Night all.

[Cindy]

Thank you Mama Dearest for that update.

[Cindy]

Goodnight Grizzfan.

[nw_arizona_granny]

Ok, Indie, here is the perfect news site, I would have to call it 'twisted news', kinda fun........

A must read is the one on abortions, listed on the right.

The one looks like fun:

Flat Broke, U.S. closes Iraq, auctions assets........


http://www.scrappleface.com/MT/archives/001191.html

I was attempting to google for:

how will the United States be attacked and when?

but mis-typed the how, so also do the above search with hwo and who as the first word, lots of junk and several surprising ones.

Add 1425 to the first one, I didn't try the others.

[MamaDearest]

Thank you WCG! My eyes are toast for the rest of tonight. Have a great evening everyone!

[MamaDearest]

Regarding Russia, I don't know about your part of the country, but Washington State has absorbed a HUGE number of Russian immigrants in the last few years. They are also already among us in strong numbers due to our immigration system.

[nw_arizona_granny]

This has just been posted.

Mexico recalled its Ambassador to Cuba, gave Cuba's Ambassador 48 hours to leave.

Seems Castro is still mad that Mexico and Peru voted against him.

Yesterday when I read about this Sasser worm, it wasn't thought to be a serious threat because it's code is poorly written. Now the articles I'm reading state that it's threat is increasing. This article is disturbing because it shows how serious a computer worm can be.

Sasser eyed over train outage
Chris Jenkins
MAY 03, 2004

NSW TRAINS authority RailCorp has sent in software engineers to find the source of the outage that left up to 300,000 commuters stranded yesterday, saying the new Sasser worm, which has already spawned two variants, is being evaluated as a possible cause.

A RailCorp spokesman confirmed that software engineers were investigating the problem, which prevented drivers from talking to signal boxes. A virus attack was one possibility being investigated, he said. RailCorp was unable to confirm when the investigation would be complete.
RailCorp chief executive Vince Graham raised the possibility of a virus attack at a press briefing yesterday. "There is no evidence that hacking is an issue here, the viral infection could have been introduced by one of our own people not taking sufficient care," Sydney's Daily Telegraph reported Mr Graham as saying.

The first incidence of the Sasser virus occurred in the US on Friday. Unlike other recent attacks, Sasser does not require email to propagate, instead "pinging" the internet for computers with the Windows operating system vulnerability it is designed to exploit.

Sasser leaves no obvious sign that it has infected a PC, meaning users may be unaware of its presence.

The Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS) vulnerability exists in versions of Windows XP, Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003. Microsoft advised of the problem and issued a patch April 13.

Microsoft has also posted a notice on its website warning Windows users of the dangers and a tool to remove the worm. The patch provided by Microsoft meant it was likely that small businesses and home users, especially those on broadband connections, would be affected by the worm, technical director for internet security firm Symantec Tim Hartman said.

The first "a" version of Sasser to appear was designed to search for new IP addresses to attack via 128 different threads, Mr Hartman said. The more recent "c" variant used 1024 threads, he said. The traffic created by the worm could place "quite a burden on the internet," he said.

This report appears on australianIT.com.au.

Don't forget though.

Our Revolution of 1776 was fought with only 30% of the population at that time on the side of freedom. The rest were either indifferent or on the side of loyalty to England.

There's still hope!
