Flight 800: Breakthrough! Posted: March 13, 2003 1:00 a.m. Eastern © 2003 WorldNetDaily.com One cannot underestimate the impact of what has just transpired in James and Elizabeth Sanderses' ongoing civil suit against the federal government and seven named individuals. The case number is federal EDNY, #01-CV-5447 JS. The United States government has declined to respond to the Sanderses' summary judgment motion – "Rule 56.1 Statement." Incredibly, by so declining, U.S. Attorney Kevin Cleary has conceded that the Sanderses' 32 damning charges against his clients cannot be rebutted. In so conceding, the Justice Department tacitly acknowledges that, yes, the TWA Flight...

A little known fact is the only person to ever ask Clinton a public question about the events in Mena Arkansas, while he was President, was Sarah McClendon in 1994. She also drilled Mike McCurry over the issue in September of 1996, an interesting exchange, in which a person named Helen (my guess is Helen Thomas) told McClendon to "put a sock in it" so she could get her question in. [both transcripts are bellow] Hats off to this little old lady, not to mention prayers. --------------------------------------------------------- October 7, 1994, Clinton Speech on His Administration's Progress. CLINTON: Yes, Sarah? SARAH...

This month is the 15th anniversary marking the brutal murders of Don Henry and Kevin Ives, who were unwitting witnesses to a police-protected drug drop in a small community south of Little Rock, Arkansas. This drug drop was part of a smuggling operation based out of Mena, Arkansas. Don Henry and Kevin Ives were just 17 years old and approaching their senior year of high school when they were murdered. What should have been a memorable year for these two boys resulted in tragedy. Unfortunately, no one has been convicted for the murders of Don Henry and Kevin Ives. The...

For Freedom's Sake, No Fast Track by Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr. It's fast-track time again. For the first time since 1994, Congress faces the decision of whether to grant the president the authority to ignore the will of Congress in negotiating new trade agreements. According to conventional wisdom, free traders should support fast track while the protectionists should favor a Congressional role in sheltering domestic industries from the wiles of international competition. Do we really have to plod through this rhetorical nonsense again? For the past year, the Bush administration has shown itself very effective in bringing about protectionist policies...

Sunday, Aug. 5, 2001 CIA Paid $10 Million to Intelligence Chief Linked to Drug Trade The Peruvian intelligence agency chief allegedly linked to narcotics traffickers was on the CIA payroll for 10 years, collecting a whopping $1 million a year from the U.S. agency, the Miami Herald reported Friday.

The CIA and State Department first sought out Montesinos decades ago, ...

Seattle riots reveal where the real Seattle riots reveal where the real threats are coming from FOR RELEASE Friday, December 3, 1999 After several years of the FBI's pother about the dire threat of "terrorism from the right," a rather more real terrorism from the left descended upon the city of Seattle this week with a fury. Ever since the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995, the FBI and the Clinton-Reno Justice Department have muttered and moaned about the slaughter and destruction the "extreme right" was getting ready to inflict upon the country. Only last month the Bureau released a near-hysterical ...

Tuesday, July 17, 2001 As the American Right continues its descent into oblivion, disgruntled conservatives continue to wring their hands and cry out for a return to basic conservative commitments. Not all, of course. The editors of National Review, when they are not calling for an amendment to allow aliens to become President, are touting (and I use that word literally) their inside knowledge of the Bush administration, warning that if you’re not reading NR, you might not "receive a sub-Cabinet level appointment in the next Republican administration because you didn't know who the key players were and you didn't ...

THE BOYS ON THE TRACKS CASE Libel judgment reversed on appeal Court rules Arkansas deputies public figures without standing © 2001 WorldNetDaily.com A federal appeals court yesterday threw out a defamation judgment against a filmmaker critical of former President Clinton's alleged role in the infamous Arkansas "boys on the tracks" case, ruling two sheriff's deputies mentioned in the documentary had no standing to sue. In dismissing a $598,750 judgment against Patrick Matrisciana, president of Jeremiah Films, the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Louis concluded the deputies were indeed public figures and failed to prove the documentary was ...
