About a month ago, the Revvvverendddd Ja-hack-son promised a Jihad to reinstate the seven (?) young thugs who were suspended from school for fighting and mob action. What ever happened this case? (wise*ss answers are ok, but can we get the facts too?????) Thanks

COLUMN: VIN SUPRYNOWICZ But no honest citizen needs a gun ... right? One of the staple mantras of the gun grabbers -- we're not supposed to think about it (since statistics show it's 99 percent wrong), just chant it until it lulls us into a feeling of sweet repose -- is that, "If you own a firearm you're just as likely to have it taken away and used against you." Right ? I guess that's why I took so quickly to a new book which Floyd Coons at Master Shooters handed me the other day. "The Best Defense: True Stories ...

(Agence France Presse) China will imminently test the Julang 2, an intercontinental sea-to-surface ballistic missile with an estimated range at least 9,000 kilometres (5580 miles) that will boost its nuclear deterent capability, foreign military experts in Beijing said Tuesday.

According to Monday's Washington Times newspaper, the transit of Chinese Golf class submarines from southern areas to the north of the country, carried out last ...

Just thinking that Hillary is packing up and moving out of the White House after the first of the year. Let's make a list of the things she has found in the white house to take with her to New York. My first suggestion; The real gun that killed Vince Foster. I am sure no one looked in the White House for it. Lock up the China Cabinet. Hide the Silver Set.

*Societal Decay* 6091003 - Thu Dec 2 18:02:48 1999 What It Would Take to Cleanse Serbia Apologies in advance for failing to post for the past couple of weeks. But the NWO is in such an agitated state of activity that I thought I should wait and gather some of the seemingly disparate threads into a more coherent whole that will shed significant new light on the NWO Elite, its internal myths, its functions and its foibles. First, we have the nuclear spy scandals. Our defense physics labs are full of foreign born Chinese and Indian physicists. In the words ...

Back to the Future - United States of Socialist Republics Dear fellow white Americans, I came to the United States in the 70's from the very possible future of America - Russia. The longer I live in this country the more ominous signs of the Soviet Union I see around me. I feel like I am on the trip "Back to the Future" - The United States of Socialist Republics. Most of the social and political "experiments," new "trends" and developments that have taken place in this country over the past 35 years are not new at all because ...

BEIJING (AP) – The Chinese government said today that the United States is ignoring abuses by a banned spiritual movement and criticized U.S. officials for "interfering" in the crackdown against the Falun Gong. Chinese leaders say the Falun Gong is a menacing cult. President Clinton yesterday called the imprisonment and detention of Falun Gong members a "troubling example" of the government acting against those "who test the limits of freedom." China says Clinton's statements are hurting U.S.-China relations. Practitioners say Falun Gong promotes health and good citizenship.

Heads Up! The voting has begun on VOTE.COM's Presidential Primary vote VOTE.COM has Keyes in the lead 41% to 28% over Bush. McCain's at 14% and Forbes at 7%. (as of 10:30 am today) Keep up the good work and remember to be honest. Only vote the amount of voting age people in your household. Their system only accepts one vote per e-mail, but I guess some people set up more than one account illegitimately and are multiple voting. That's not the Keyes nor the Lord's way.(although I can appreciate the temptation to level the playing field against the liberal ...

Toilets have once again become a national issue. The first time, during the 1980's, involved stories of $500 toilets purchased by the military, which quickly became a potent symbol of Pentagon waste. Though not entirely true--the high "prices" had more to do with the way accountants in the armed forces allocated overhead than the real cost of a GI commode--the media and anti-military types ate it up, and procurement procedures consequently came under congressional scrutiny. Today, the toilet controversy swirling around the Capitol is entirely different, and far more important to our daily lives. As a result of a ...

(http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/special_report/1999/02/99/e-cyclopedia/newsid_325000/325997.stm) Inat: Serbia's secret weapon A few days ago several thousand men, women and children turned out - despite lashing rain and 24 days of Nato bombing raids - to compete in the annual Belgrade fun run. Tenacity and refusal to be humbled and beaten would be one interptetation of the decision not to cancel the 5km run through the bomb-ravaged capital. However, another explanation could be an ingrained cultural attitude for which the Serbs have a word - inat. Pronounced "eenat", the word has no direct translation in English. Morlon-Benson's bilingual Serbo-Croat - English dictionary says that as a ...

CRITICS FLAYED AND SKEWERED DUTCH, THE EDMUND Morris biography of Ronald Reagan. I rather liked it. You could do much worse in your hunt for a good holiday book. Unlike standard biographies, this one reads like a prose version of a superbly rendered documentary, in the style of Ken Burns. Many have carped about Morris' brave but odd literary technique: The writer "fictionalized" himself as an American-born citizen and contemporary of Reagan's. (He's actually Kenyan-born and 59 years old.) The idea was to put a "camera" on Reagan, then follow him as he grew up in rural Illinois, reached manhood ...
