Sen. Zell Miller Slams Clinton Terrorist Policies John O. Edwards Monday, Aug. 12, 2001 Orlando – In the harshest words yet from a Democratic senator, Georgia's Zell Miller slammed Clinton terrorist policies. In a speech this past Friday to more than 2,000 members of ALEC (the American Legislative Exchange Council, the nation's largest bipartisan group of state legislators) who met in Orlando, Miller described Clinton's response to several terrorist acts as "a wimpy response so totally inadequate I was ashamed." Miller's comments drew thunderous applause as he detailed a litany of terrorist acts that Clinton didn't adequately respond to....

Einstein's relativity theory hits a speed bump August 8 2002 Australian scientists have discovered that light isn't quite as fast as it used to be. But it doesn't mean E=mc2 will be consigned to the dustbin, writes David Wroe. In October, 1971, American physicists took four super-accurate atomic clocks, kept two on the ground and put two on commercial jets flying at 1000 kmh in opposite directions around Earth. When the planes landed, the scientists found what they were hoping for: The clocks on the high-speed journeys were ticking a few billionths of a second behind their stationary friends. Motion,...

New Weapon In The War On Terrorism: Transcendental MeditationTranscendental Meditation Group Seeks $1 Billion EndowmentBy Matt Mientka WASHINGTON-As the world prepared for the American-led war on terrorism last month, supporters of the transcendental meditation movement returned here to ask for a $1 billion endowment to fund a permanent garrison of transcendental meditators in India to promote peace via the unified field of quantum mechanics theory. To date, the group has raised $40 million in its effort to establish the endowment, the interest of which would support approximately 8,000 permanent transcendental meditators in India-the square root of one per cent...

U.S. Helps America-Hating North Korea Build Nukes NewsMax.com Wires and NewsMax.com Thursday, Aug. 8, 2002 SEOUL, South Korea – A concrete-pouring ceremony Wednesday marked the beginning of a U.S.-led project to build two light-water nuclear reactors in North Korea. The international consortium pledged eight years ago to build a nuclear power plant with two 1,000-megawatt light-water reactors for North Korea, supposedly in exchange for the county giving up its military nuclear program. The light-water reactors produce less weapons-grade nuclear material than other models, officials said. The U.S. is aiding North Korea even though: President Bush has called the communist...

FEMA’s Plan for Mass Destruction Attacks: Of Course It’s True Christopher Ruddy Wednesday, Aug. 7, 2002 Let me state for the record that FEMA is moving ahead with plans to create temporary cities that could handle millions of Americans after mass destruction attacks on U.S. cities. Though the agency has denied the program to some of our readers and has made misleading claims about NewsMax’s original story to members of the press, the basic facts of the story remain unchallenged. In early July, NewsMax first reported in our e-mail news service, Insider Report, the story "FEMA Preparing for Mass Destruction...

PRINCIPLE OF FAILURE TO YIELD JAMES TRAFICANT'S BIGGEST BLUNDER By: Dave Franklin On March 14, 2000, Representative Jim Traficant (D-OH) stood on the floor in the House of Representatives and said, "I want to yield back the gutless wonders of the United States International Trade Commission and the Clinton-Gore administration that appointed them." The Ohio Congressman has a knack for telling it like it is. But that is not what got him in trouble. Traficant doesn't pull any punches. And neither did the elite global establishment in its persecution of the eight-term Congressman. Can anyone honestly claim he would have...

France plans to outlaw far-right group of would-be assassin Jon Henley, Paris Tuesday July 30, 2002 The Guardian The French interior ministry said yesterday it planned to outlaw Unité Radicale, the far-right group that counts among its members the neo-Nazi activist who earlier this month tried to assassinate President Jacques Chirac on the Champs-Elysées. A spokesman said the government would invoke a 1936 law that allows the president of the republic to dissolve private militias and "combat groups" by decree. Unité Radicale, formed in 1998 to federate France's extreme-right factions, denies it is a paramilitary organisation. The shadowy group,...

Italian police planted petrol bombs on G8 summit protesters By Jessie Grimond in Rome 30 July 2002 Italian police planted two Molotov cocktails in a school where anti-globalisation pro-testers were sleeping to justify a brutal crackdown during last year's G8 summit in Genoa. A policeman has confessed that he planted the explosives following a year of acrimony over the handling of security at the summit where a protester was shot dead by the police. "I brought the Molotov cocktail to the Diaz school. I obeyed the order of one of my superiors," the 25-year-old unnamed officer told prosecutors investigating...

FBI developing artificial-intelligence software to predict future crimes By Sept. 11, 2011, the FBI hopes to use artificial-intelligence software to predict acts of terrorism the way the telepathic "precogs" in the movie "Minority Report" foresee murders before they take place. Someone with an account at the LA times post some of this story. REMEMBER, NO FULL TEXT from LAT!

Police hold 'Aryan Rebel' secret agent By Hannah Cleaver (Filed: 30/07/2002) German police who arrested a man thought to be the leader of one of the country's most notorious neo-Nazi heavy metal bands found during questioning that he was a secret agent. The man, who has been named only as "Tilo S", is said to be the only permanent member of the banned music group White Aryan Rebels. Its album Notes of Hate provoked outrage when it was released last year by including Boris Becker's children, then aged one and six, on a list of high-profile people on a song...

CHRISTMAS IS ABOUT BIRTH OF CHRIST December 12, 2001 Mr. Speaker, the school prayer issue is out of control, literally. Students in Pennsylvania were prohibited from handing out Christmas cards. Reports say students in Minnesota were disciplined for having said merry Christmas. Now if that is not enough to find coal in your athletic supporter, check this out: A school board in Georgia removed the word ``Christmas'' from their school calendar because the ACLU threatened to sue. Beam me up. If this is religious freedom, I am a fashion model for GQ. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the fact...

CLINTON ADMINISTRATION HAS REINVENTED COMMUNISM December 5, 2000 Mr. Speaker, America's trade deficit for September hit $35 billion for one month, $35 billion. America is heading for a $420 billion, 1-year trade deficit. Unbelievable. If this continues, America will have a crash that will make 1929 look like a fender-bender. What is even worse, China is now taking $100 billion of cash out of our economy, buying missiles, and pointing them at us. Beam us up, all of us. We must be stupid. Ronald Reagan almost destroyed Communism, and the Clinton administration has reinvented it, is now subsidizing it,...

WASTING AMERICA'S TAX DOLLARS IN RUSSIA November 17, 1999 Mr. Speaker, since 1992, Uncle Sam has given Russia billions of dollars to dismantle their weapons of mass destruction. Now, who is kidding whom? Instead of dismantling, reports say Russia has built missiles, submarines, and more nuclear warheads. If that is not enough to gargle with vodka, the report said that Russia just bought 11 strategic bombers and 500 additional cruise missiles. To boot, they say what they did not spend, those Communists stole and pocketed for themselves. Unbelievable. Whatever happened to President Reagan's policy: Trust, but verify. It has...
