Group Cites Gonzales Memo Calling Geneva Conventions “Quaint” and “Obsolete”...

http://www.ccr-ny.org/v2/reports/report.asp?ObjID=7Sji957UtN&Content=463



Spotlight on Enron's law firm :

Alberto Gonzales enjoys a reputation for covering George W. Bush's back. In 1996, for example, Gonzales, as Bush's general counsel, managed to get the then-Texas governor excused from jury duty, thus saving Bush from having to disclose a 1976 arrest for drunk driving.

The 2004 election marks the rise of a quasi-clerical party for the first time in the United States. Ecclesiastical organisation has become the sinew and muscle of the Republican party, essential in George Bush's re-election.

LOS ANGELES, November 9, 2004 - At 7:50 PM armored tanks showed up at an anti-war protest in front of the federal building in Westwood.

The tanks circled the block twice, the second time parking themselves in the street and directly in front of the area where most of the protesters were gathered.

Enraged, some of the people attempted to block the tanks, but police quickly cleared the street.

The people continued to protest the presence of the tanks, but after about ten minutes the tanks drove off. It is unclear as to why the tanks were deployed to this location.


Informant: CHEROKEE

In terms of my last email that stated that Kerry was considering unconceding: I got this information from a few trusted sources and I tracked down the original source, a D.C. lawyer, Cynthia Butler. This is what she sent me to explain her reasoning. http://www.moderateindependent.com/v2i21election.htm

Also, Kerry's brother sent out an email saying he was grateful for everyone's concern about fraud and miscounting and says election lawyers are still on the job in Ohio and Florida. He says, "if you have specific factual information about voting problems that could be helpful to the lawyers doing their job, please send it to vri@dnc.org rather than to me."

Here are some new actions that could help uncover fraud and facilitate a recount:

Contact Ohio Secretary of State Blackwell to complain about the new rule that rejects any provisional ballot that doesn't have the voter's birth of date on it. (article here: http://www.freepress.org/columns/display/3/2004/985).
J. Kenneth Blackwell
180 E. Broad St., 16th Floor
Columbus, OH 43215
614-466-3910
Email: blackwell@sos.state.oh.us

In the link above it mentions that an election lawyer for the Democratic Party said that Kerry might ask for a recount of several counties in Ohio that had statistical anomalies. If you want to encourage him to do this or to ask him to do a full recount, you can contact the DNC at 202-863-8000 or http://www.democrats.org/contact/ or contact the Kerry campaign at 202-712-3000 (phone) 202-712-3001 (fax) or http://www.democrats.org/contact/

Foster Kids on Mind-Altering Drugs?

Why would a child as young as three years old ever be on mind-altering drugs? For the past eight months, the News 4 WOAI Trouble Shooters have poured through reams of state documents and discovered thousands of foster kids appear to be on powerful psychotropic drugs. Many of these children are barely in kindergarten. Some are mere toddlers. "We didn't even know he was in the hospital until he called us from Laurel Ridge himself," a woman we'll refer to as "Magdalana" tells us. We're disguising her name in order to protect the identity of her six year old grandson she's referring to. She says he was confined to a psychiatric hospital following a temper tantrum when he called his grandmother for help. "I mean he was like," Magdalana describes, "maybe you could say he looked more like a zombie."

News 4 WOAI Trouble Shooter Tanji Patton asks, "How could you tell by looking at him that he was on medication?" Magdalana answers, "His attitude, his eyes, his way of speech. All that."

In retrospect, the energy that many progressives put behind Kerry would have been much better put solidifying and expanding national movements against the Bush regime’s war against you, me, our environment and the world. We must not join in a “common effort” with the Bush regime, as Kerry asks us to do. We must instead fan the flames of rage and anger against the theocracy....

Right-wing trumpets are making a horrific racket across a ravaged political landscape. For now, hope is barely audible. Progressives seem like fledglings without feathers, weakly tapping from inside thick shells. Four more years sound like hell. . . . Ideological fanatics have extended their control over the Executive Branch while increasing their domination of Congress. The “leaders” who lied the country into war are plunging ahead with escalating carnage in Iraq. Soon they’ll take action to make the Supreme Court more authoritarian -- threatening abortion rights, freedom of speech, basic legal protections for defendants and other civil liberties. A theocratic stench is in the air. This emergency has not been averted. It’s here....

Forty years after Senator Barry Goldwater crashed and burned as the Republican Party's conservative presidential candidate, a consolidated conservative movement spearheaded by evangelical Christians carried George W. Bush to victory. The re-election of the president wasn't so much determined by Soccer Moms, NASCAR Dads, or military voters as it was by Karl Rove's army of “Values Voters” -- an unwaveringly loyal bloc of Republican Party voters that marched to the polls and provided President Bush the votes necessary in a number of key states, including the pivotal battleground state of Ohio. . . . With the possible appointment of two, perhaps three, Supreme Court Justices -- including a Chief Justice -- and dozens of judges in lower courts, more tax cuts for the wealthy, the further evisceration of social programs, the privatization of social security, the lowering the wall of the separation of church and state, and more foreign adventures, conservative Christians have given the president the opportunity to forge a right wing legacy that could last well into this century. Make no mistake about it: Team Bush is dead set on nothing less than reshaping America....

What has America become under the leadership of “Christian conservatives” [sic] and the Republican Party? Is it still the land of the free and the home of the brave? Does it still welcome the Earth’s oppressed, her tired, huddled masses to its teeming shores, if not by law at least in spirit? Do the Democrats and Republicans still represent our nation’s two largest constituencies -- workers and management? Do the Democrats, in the words of Gore Vidal, still bribe the masses, or have they become like Republicans, ruling through coercion? Are we still a nation, as we were before 1980, in which “religious” people and clergy are worthy of being held in high esteem? Or have we become a nation that the views of such people are dangerous because of their suspicious political activism and morally bankrupt worldviews? One need only compare Pat Robertson to the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. to consider the contrast. We know what the Rev. King’s dream was by heart, but what about Dr. Robertson’s? What’s his dream?

Einfluss der räumlichen Nähe von Mobilfunksendeanlagen auf die Krebsinzidenz

Horst Eger, Klaus Uwe Hagen, Birgitt Lucas, Peter Vogel, Helmut Voit

Zusammenfassung

Im Anschluss an die durch den rasanten Anstieg der drahtlosen Telefonie in den letzten Jahren bedingte zunehmenden Mobilfunksendeanlagen in oder in unmittelbarer Nähe von Wohngebieten erfolgte die Aufforderung des Präsidenten des Bundesamtes für Strahlenschutz, Wolfram König, an alle Ärzte, aktiv an der Abschätzung des Risikos durch Mobilfunkstrahlung mitzuarbeiten. Das Ziel dieser Untersuchung war daher, zu prüfen, ob Anwohner in der Nähe von Mobilfunksendeanlagen einem erhöhten Risiko für Neuerkrankungen an bösartigen Tumoren ausgesetzt sind.

Datengrundlage waren PC-gespeicherte und mit den Krankenkassen abgerechnete Patientenunterlagen der Jahre 1994 bis 2004. In die ohne Fremdmittel erstellte Studie wurden Angaben von knapp 1.000 Patienten aus Naila (Oberfranken) unter Wahrung des Datenschutzes aufgenommen.

Als Ergebnis zeigte sich, dass der Anteil von neu aufgetretenen Krebsfällen bei den Patienten, die während der letzten zehn Jahre in einem Abstand bis zu 400 Meter um die seit 1993 betriebene Mobilfunksendeanlage gewohnt hatten, gegenüber weiter entfernt lebenden Patienten signifikant höher war und die Patienten in durchschnittlich jüngerem Alter erkrankt waren.

Für die Jahre 1999 bis 2004 - also nach fünf und mehr Jahren Betriebszeit des Senders - hatte sich das Malignomrisiko für die näher an der Sendestation lebende Bevölkerungsgruppe im Vergleich mit der Gruppe im Nailaer Außenbereich verdreifacht.

Summary

Following the call by Wolfram König, President of the Bundesamt für Strahlenschutz (Federal Agency for radiation protection), to all doctors of medicine to collaborate actively in the assessment of the risk posed by cellular radiation, the aim of our study was to examine whether people living close to cellular transmitter antennas were exposed to a heightened risk of taking ill with malignant tumors.

The basis of the data used for the survey were PC files of the case histories of patients between the years 1994 and 2004. While adhering to data protection, the personal data of almost 1.000 patients were evaluated for this study, which was completed without any external financial support. It is intended to continue the project in the form of a register.

The result of the study shows that the proportion of newly developing cancer cases was significantly higher among those patients who had lived during the past ten years at a distance of up to 400 metres from the cellular transmitter site, which bas been in operation since 1993, compared to those patients living further away, and that the patients fell ill on average 8 years earlier.

In the years 1999-2004, i.e. after five years’ operation of the transmitting installation, the relative risk of getting cancer had trebled for the residents of the area in the proximity of the installation compared to the inhabitants of Naila outside the area.

Key words: cellular radiation, cellular transmitter antennas, malignant tumors

http://www.tetrawatch.net/papers/naila.pdf

I am working on it to produce a very much smaller version as soon as I can. This is a very important study, you should read it and be familiar with it. I don't believe at his stage that the rise in particular cancers has anything to do with breaking DNA necessarily. There are direct and plausible reasons for quite other mechanisms, so this study cannot be set against the "not enough energy in mast emissions" argument favoured by the HPA or WHO.

Never say Die-bold: So you don’t think the Bush campaign stole this election? Think again

If you’re looking for one word to sum up the way the Bush-Cheney campaign stole another election Tuesday besides obvious ones like “cheated,” try this one: Diebold. An election judge where I voted Tuesday in a heavily Democratic precinct in Maryland knows what that means and wasn’t averse to sharing his opinion of the Republican-owned company. As I was about to vote with the electronic system, I asked this judge if they had a way to check people’s votes through a paper backup. The official said no, and then in a low voice so no one else would hear, added, “And that really makes us nervous, with Diebold as the owner of that system.” Goodbye, hanging chads. Hello, computer fraud that leaves no trace. Diebold Inc. of North Canton, Ohio, supplied scores of machines and counted millions of votes Tuesday, while reportedly discarding many votes for Democrat John Kerry, according to investigative reporter Greg Palast. Walden O’Dell, chief executive of Diebold and a top fundraiser for the Bush campaign, wrote in a fund-raising letter last year that he was “committed to helping Ohio deliver its electoral votes to the president next year.” That he did.

The morning after Election Day, Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry and the vice presidential candidate John Edwards promised the nation that the Democrats would make sure that every vote counts, and that every vote is counted. Later in the day, Kerry and Edwards, however, conceded defeat before some 170,000 to 250,000 provisional ballots from Ohio, which could have changed the outcome of the election, had been counted. But how were the votes actually counted across the nation on Nov. 2? On Election Day, voters in Cook County, Ill., were among the 60 million Americans who voted with machines made by Election Systems & Software, a secretive company based in Omaha.

ES&S, as it is known, calls itself “the world’s largest and most experienced provider of total election management solutions.” According to the company’s own figures, 42 percent of all registered voters in the United States voted on ES&S equipment on Election Day.

Hundreds of angry Ohio residents marched through the streets of Columbus—Ohio’s Capital—this evening and stormed the Ohio State House, defying orders and arrest threats from Ohio State Troopers. "O-H-I-O ! suppressed democracy has got to go,"they chanted. After troopers pushed and scuffled with people, nearly a hundred people took over the steps and entrance to the State’s giant white column capital building and refused repeated orders to disperse or face arrest. People prepared for arrests, ready to face jail—writing lawyers phone numbers on their arms, signing jail support lists and discussing non-cooperation and active resistance (linking arms, but not fighting back). A freshly painted banner held on the steps read "ONE VOTE DENIED = DEMOCRACY IN TROUBLE! 100’S OF 1000’S OF VOTES SURPRESSED = DEMOCRACY FAILED" articulated the crisis. An unprecedented massive grassroots voter registration and get out the vote effort and widespread opposition to Bush went up against the massive coordinated Republican effort to suppress, intimidate and possibly steal millions of votes. In addition to the voter suppression and intimidation is the fact that Bush campaign co-chair Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell is in charge of the election and vote counting. But much deeper questions about fundamental flaws in the system hang in the air. CNN's exit poll showed Kerry beating Bush among Ohio women by 53 percent to 47 percent. Kerry also defeated Bush among Ohio's male voters 51 percent to 49 percent. Investigative reporter Greg Palast in an article today titled "Kerry Won" details how the deciding states, Ohio and New Mexico, if all votes were actually counted, would have gone to Kerry. Palast explains, "Although the exit polls show that most voters in Ohio punched cards for Kerry-Edwards, thousands of these votes were simply not recorded. The election in Ohio was not decided by the voters but by something called "spoilage." Typically in the United States, about 3 percent of the vote is voided, just thrown away, not recorded." But that is just a piece of it.

Since the late 1960’s, every president winning a second term has found his administration embroiled in a scandal of some sort. For those of us who truly love liberty and yearn for the days of politicians, who at least played at honoring their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution, perhaps a nice juicy scandal will stop the second Bush administration from totally destroying this country. In 2002, a multitude of lawsuits, most by some 500 family members of those lost in the disasters of 9/11, were filed in several different federal courts. The Bush administration is already seeking to stifle discovery, therefore preventing the release of possibly incriminating evidence in all of these lawsuits. In addition, San Francisco-based attorney, Stanley G. Hilton has filed a class-action federal lawsuit that names President Bush and members of his Cabinet as defendants. The named Cabinet members include Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, Vice President Dick Cheney, and Attorney General John Ashcroft.
"I hope the lawsuit will expose the fact that there are numbers of people in the government, including Bush and his top assistants, who wanted this to happen," Hilton was quoted as saying by the San Francisco Examiner in June of 2002.

With US forces massing outside Fallujah, 35 marines swayed to Christian rock music and asked Jesus Christ to protect them in what could be the biggest battle since American troops invaded Iraq last year. Men with buzzcuts and clad in their camouflage waved their hands in the air, M-16 assault rifles beside them, and chanted heavy metal-flavoured lyrics in praise of Christ late on Friday in a yellow-brick chapel. They counted among thousands of troops surrounding the city of Fallujah, seeking solace as they awaited Iraqi Prime Minister Iyad Allawi's decision on whether or not to invade Fallujah. "You are the sovereign. You're name is holy. You are the pure spotless lamb," a female voice cried out on the loudspeakers as the marines clapped their hands and closed their eyes, reflecting on what lay ahead for them. The US military, with many soldiers coming from the conservative American south and midwest, has deep Christian roots. In times that fighting looms, many soldiers draw on their evangelical or born-again heritage to help them face the battle. One spoke of their Old Testament hero, a shepherd who would become Israel's king, battling the Philistines 3 000 years ago. "Thus David prevailed over the Philistines," the marine said, reading from scripture, and the marines shouted back "Hoorah, King David," using their signature grunt of approval. The marines drew parallels from the verse with their present situation, where they perceive themselves as warriors fighting barbaric men opposed to all that is good in the world. "Victory belongs to the Lord," another young marine read. Their chaplain, named Horne, told the worshippers they were stationed outside Fallujah to bring the Iraqis "freedom from oppression, rape, torture and murder ...

We ask you God to bless us in that effort."

Guantanamo style Patriot Act concentration camps are being secretly organized by the Department of Homeland Defense. Now that Bush dynasty has illicitly secured its second term in the eyes of the American people plans are fully underway for John Ashcroft's "Patriot Act Concentration Camps" to jail and disappear US Citizens. Atty. Gen. John Ashcroft's announced to Bush administration aides yesterday his desire for camps for U.S. citizens he deems to be "enemy combatants" such as anarchists, anti-war protesters, americans of arab descent, communists and homosexuals. Ashcroft's plan would allow him to order the indefinite incarceration of U.S. citizens and summarily strip them of their constitutional rights and access to the courts by declaring them enemy combatants.

Now that a second term for George Bush has been secured, Ashcroft plans to use his self made "enemy combatant" stamp for any citizen whom he deems to be part of a wider terrorist conspiracy.

Trotzdem gab sich Bernhard Aufdereggen, Vorstandsmitglied von Ärztinnen und Ärzten für Umweltschutz, an der Diskussion in Zürich überzeugt: «Es bestehen ernst zu nehmende Hinweise für Beeinträchtigungen der Gesundheit durch Basisstationen.»

Der Arzt führte unter anderem eine Studie des holländischen TNO-Labors an, die vor einem Jahr für Aufsehen gesorgt hatte. Die TNO-Forscher untersuchten eine Gruppe elektrosensibler Personen, die sich in ihrem Wohlbefinden durch Sendemasten beeinträchtigt fühlten. Eine zweite Versuchsgruppe gab an, nicht elektrosensibel zu sein.

Beide Gruppen wurden verschiedenen Hochfrequenzfeldern mit einer Feldstärke von 1 Volt pro Meter ausgesetzt. Einmal entsprach das Feld jener Strahlung, wie sie von GSM-Antennen ausgeht, dem heute gebräuchlichen europäischen Mobilfunkstandard der zweiten Generation.

Ein andermal wurden die Testpersonen mit einem UMTS-Signal bestrahlt, dem geplanten globalen Mobilfunkstandard der dritten Generation. Zu Kontrollzwecken wurden die Personen auch «nur zum Schein» bestrahlt. Die Versuche wurden doppelblind durchgeführt, weder die Testpersonen noch der Versuchsleiter wussten also, wann welches Signal und wann überhaupt kein Signal ausgesandt wurde.

Wohlbefinden beeinträchtigt

Das erstaunliche Ergebnis: In beiden Versuchsgruppen verschlechterte sich das Wohlbefinden, wenn die Testpersonen während 20 Minuten dem UMTS-Feld ausgesetzt waren. Selbst bei den nicht elektrosensiblen Personen war dieser Effekt nachweisbar.

Den Ärzten für Umweltschutz gab die TNO-Studie den Anstoß, ein Moratorium für die neue Mobilfunkgeneration UMTS zu fordern. «Ich rate zur Vorsicht gegenüber neuen Technologien», sagt Bernhard Aufdereggen. Denn wenn das Entwicklungstempo so weitergetrieben werde, «drohen mögliche Katastrophen».

Nun wird die Untersuchung in der Schweiz mit einer verbesserten Methodik wiederholt. Insgesamt sollen 84 Personen getestet werden, «deutlich mehr als in der Originalstudie», schreibt die Forschungsstiftung Mobilkommunikation.

Die gut 700 000 Franken teure Schweizer Studie wird zu 60 Prozent von der öffentlichen Hand finanziert. 40 Prozent zahlen Orange, Sunrise und Swisscom Mobile. Wenn die Mobilfunkanlagen potenzielle Auswirkungen auf die Gesundheit hätten, müsse man dies frühzeitig wissen, begründet Carsten Schloter, Chef von Swisscom Mobile, das finanzielle Engagement. Und: Die Forschung sei wichtig, um bei den Kunden das Vertrauen zu fördern.
Die Wiederholung der TNO-Studie in der Schweiz wird gut ein Jahr dauern. Erste Ergebnisse sollen Ende 2005 veröffentlicht werden.

Omega das Ergebnis der Studie ist absehbar, wenn die Forschung von der Mobilfunkindustrie mitfinanziert wird. Dass Mobilfunkanlagen potenzielle Auswirkungen auf die Gesundheit haben, ist doch längst bekannt. Siehe „Wissenschaft und Mobilfunk“ unter: http://omega.twoday.net/stories/293807/

Die immer neuen, meist völlig überflüssigen „neuen“ Forschungsstudien dienen doch nur dem einen Zweck: sich vor den notwendigen Konsequenzen der Forschungsergebnisse zu schützen, nämlich eine gesundheitsverträglichere Mobilfunktechnik einzusetzen und für die angerichteten Schäden zu haften. Für eine gesundheitsverträglichere Mobilfunktechnik zu forschen und die Forschungsgelder dafür einzusetzen wäre viel sinnvoller, als zu hoffen etwas „wegzuforschen“ zu können, was schon lange als schädlich bewiesen ist. Außerdem wird es den letzten, ultimativen Beweis auch niemals geben, weil es so was in der Wissenschaft überhaupt nicht gibt. In der Zwischenzeit bauen die Mobilfunkbetreiber unter Hochdruck ihre Netze zu Lasten der Gesundheit der Bevölkerung immer weiter aus und nutzen die Forderungen nach immer weiterer Forschung als Zeitaufschub und Alibi für ihre wirtschaftlichen Interessen, nämlich dem Bestandsschutz für ihre Anlagen. Wir wissen doch ganz genau, dass es wirklich 100 % reproduzierbare Studien überhaupt nicht gibt. Die Studien und deren Ergebnisse unterscheiden sich alle mehr oder weniger. Kaum ein Geldgeber wäre bereit eine Studie zu finanzieren, die bereits mit einem identischen Forschungsaufbau und -ziel gelaufen ist und Forschungsziele und deren erwünschte Ergebnisse lassen sich leicht vor Beginn der Studie definieren.

Wie kann man von Interessierten, die aus wirtschaftlichen Gründen ein für sich positives Ergebnis anstreben und wünschen, auch ein anderes Verhalten erwarten? Da liegt doch Parteilichkeit vor und dann will man die Studienergebnisse der Öffentlichkeit als „neutral“, „unabhängig“ oder „objektiv“ verkaufen. Aufgrund der Tatsache, dass die Mobilfunkbetreiber an vielen Studien finanziell beteiligt sind und waren, braucht man sich über die unterschiedlichen und sich oft auch widersprechenden Forschungsergebnisse nicht wundern, denn wenn man den „Bock zum Gärtner“ macht, was kann man denn dann anderes erwarten? Nur wirklich unabhängige Forschung, ohne Beteiligung der wirtschaftlich interessierten Parteien, macht wirklich einen Sinn.

Während sich über die Auswirkungen der Sendemasten weiterhin nur spekulieren lässt, sind sich die meisten Forscher einig: Das Handy kann die elektrische Aktivität des Gehirns beeinflussen. Verschiedene Studien zeigten eine Veränderung der Hirnstromwellen, wenn die Versuchspersonen Mobilfunkstrahlung ausgesetzt waren.

Krebsrisiko untersuchen

Ungewiss ist nach wie vor auch, ob es einen Zusammenhang zwischen Handystrahlung und Krebs gibt. «Es scheint möglich, dass Mobilfunkstrahlung die Entstehung von Tumoren fördert», sagt Bernhard Aufdereggen. «Die Diskussion in Wissenschaftskreisen ist kontrovers.»

Omega: der Grund siehe oben. Es gibt einen Zusammenhang zwischen Handystrahlung und Krebs. Siehe „Mobilfunk und Krebs“ unter: http://omega.twoday.net/stories/284796/

Seit Oktober 2000 läuft eine internationale Studie, die klären soll, ob die regelmäßige Nutzung des Handys das Risiko erhöht, an einem Hirntumor zu erkranken. Im Rahmen der von der WHO koordinierten Untersuchung werden in 13 Ländern Tumorpatienten befragt.

Die bisher veröffentlichten Ergebnisse dieser so genannten Interphone-Studie sind widersprüchlich und lassen gemäss Fachleuten noch keine eindeutigen Schlüsse zu. Das Programm endet 2005.

The 500 metres from habitation recommendation - this came from the Stewart Report and can be accessed on the internet. No withstanding the recommendation, 'Phone companies seem to be able to plonk masts wherever they like. The one in our village is 14 metres from front doors and has been causing the usual symptoms - chronic insomnia and headaches; sore bloodshot eyes; earache and tinnitus; nose bleeds. Also, ulcerated mouths and throats; rashes/eczema; exacerbation of existing symptoms - and of course exhaustion and depression!

Several dogs have developed growths on paws; loss of appetite; vomiting and restlessness; one dog a growth in its mouth and one cat a tumour in its throat. Noone will take any notice of the evidence from Russia and Schwarzenburg which prove the actual effects of electromagnetic radio frequency emissions.
