CAT STEVENS' THEORY OF LIVING

PEACE TRAIN

by Elizabeth Hillary Jones CPW News Service

     The conversion of Cat Stevens to Islam has many Westerners speculating about the famous singer’s motivation for such a radical religious recreation of a life once dedicated to popular Western music.

     “He got sick, went to the hospital and realized that he was just a body on a journey through space and time. He had spent his life largely fulfilling other people’s expectations and chasing fame and stardom.  He points to that illness as a turning point in his life and thanks it for opening the door to his new life,” said Omar Moorman of East London.

     Born Steven Demetre Georgiou on July 21, 1948 in Marylebone, a suburb of London  and taking the stage name “Cat Stevens” his father, Stavros Georgiou, Greek Orthodox, was a the son of a Greek-cypriot and his mother, Ingrid Wickman, a Swede was raised in the Swedish Baptist tradition.  “I think that on Cat’s side of the family the men were generations of burden-carrying stevedores while on his mother’s side they were generations of candle wick makers or cattle farmers.  It’s fitting that Cat carried a burden for preaching peace through the Vietnam War era and a light for spreading religious harmony  and toleration in the face of growing work-wide war-mongering, religious stereotyping and profit motivated fight promoting that he would make this highly visible organic transformation,” said Moorman.

     “Growing up in London he was not far removed from actors like Ben Kingsley.  He spoke of the great impact of the film Gandhi had on solidifying the decision he had made in 1977 to become a Muslim.  The 1982 film provided a clue to religious and cultural toleration,” said Moorman recalling a scene from the role which won Ben Kingsley an Academy Award.

     A man had lost his child in civil war.  Gandhi tells the man that he knows the way out of hell.   The man, a Hindu named Mahari sneers, but his rejection turns to curiosity.  “Find a child, a child whose mother and father have been killed.  A little boy….about this high.”  Gandhi raises his hand. “And raise him….as your own,” Gandhi continues.  Nahari seems open, but not deeply stirred.  “Only be sure…..that he is a Muslim.  And that you raise him as one.”

     Cat Stevens, Yusaf Islam after 1977, while in London was also not far removed from the Tavistock Institute, Oxford University and the steady stream of Rhodes Scholars that annually make their track through the hallowed halls of British academia.  In as much as both the Indian and Arabian regions of the Middle East had been colonized by the British, Cat's conversion at the center of the British empire’s philosophical and economic heartland was also significant.

     “Stevens is fascinated by the study of the physical world as much as he is of the spiritual one and sees the asceticism of religion and science partners in a quest for greater human understanding.  He loved to do observational research that was grounded in reality to assess the myths and stereotypes he had uncritically accepted.  He noticed that the farther one went East in the Muslim world toward Mecca or Medina the more outwardly religious and intolerant people became, while at the same time the cities and political life became more Western and motivated by shinny technological advances, spectacular buildings, flashy yachts, gold gildings and glitzy jewels.  I think that he likened this to America where the closer one gets to the religious leaders…..Billy Graham or Pat Robertson….the more blindly militant are the followers.  With the Saudi Royal’s being the keepers of Islam’s high holy places much like the Rockefeller Chapels in New York or Chicago where the church leaders are often Masons or Knight Templars or Catholic Cathedrals where the  Bishop's closest friends are Knight of Columbus or Maltese Knights, the average person is often manipulated by forces far more powerful than they.  They are like the Israelites enslaved by Pharaoh,” said Moorman, "or like that young U.S. Marine who finally figured it all out and threw his Iraqi war medals into the crowd."



U.S. Marine, Jon Michael Turner.  "I don't work
for you anymore."

     “I think that Cat saw much of what we accept on a daily basis as filtered through a system controlled by power elites within the culture and that as with, say, Prince Bandar Bush being a part of the Bush galaxy of  international leaders, when 15 of the 19 World Trade Center hijackers were from Saudi Arabia, but the U.S. invaded Iraq instead, while deploying from bases in Saudi, well the whole thing smelled like the butt hole of camel in heat after a summer desert passage in a sand storm,” said Moorman.

     Moorman believes that Cat Stevens came up with a new way of living noting the article in Rolling Stone by Andrew Dansby (September 17, 2001).  Dansby quoted Cat Stevens' response to 911:

I wish to express my heartfelt horror at the indiscriminate terrorist attacks committed against innocent people of the United States yesterday. While it is still not clear who carried out the attack, it must be stated that no right-thinking follower of Islam could possibly condone such an action. The Qur'an equates the murder of one innocent person with the murder of the whole of humanity. We pray for the families of all those who lost their lives in this unthinkable act of violence as well as all those injured; I hope to reflect the feelings of all Muslims and people around the world whose sympathies go out to the victims of this sorrowful moment.

     “I believe that Cat Stevens’ new theory for living was based on an experience he had in London in 1976.  He had gotten into a cab and the Irishman cabbie told him that there was a cab-war among the cabbies in London and that you could not trust the camel jockey drivers," said Moorman.

     “They’ll always cheat you,” Moorman recounted.  “Well, Cat was in many ways an average looking man and not telling the cabbie who he was he was delivered to his hotel after leaving a small Surrey restaurant.  The fare on the meter was 22 pounds.  The next day he got into another cab.   The driver was Muslim and his prayer rug was lying on the front seat.  Delivered to the same restaurant the cab fare was exactly the same.  Over the next few weeks with many different drivers the fare remained the same.  “People move easily to stereotypes,’ said Moorman who grew up in Tunisia, the son of a Pentecostal minister’s daughter and a former Muslim cleric.  “There was much indiscernible music in our home, but that was part of its exotic charm," said Moorman whose favorite Cat Stevens' number is Moon Shadow.  "People are always promoting fights and it’s really sad.  Better that we all live more like Cat Stevens and that when people want to wage a war…..nobody shows up!”

JAMES BOND UP TO HIS NECK IN BROCCOLI SOUP

James Bond’s Tortured Identity

By Harry T. Mann for CPW News Services

     James Bond’s life has been, from the start, shaken, but unstirred by reality.  Ian Fleming, James Bond's creator, was called on a night in May 1941 to interrogate a downed German fighter pilot, Rudolf Hess.  Hess, the number three in power in Hitler’s Third Reich, had flown his Messerschmidt to the estate of Lord Hamilton near Dungavel, Scotland, presumably to lay out a plan for an Anglo alliance and world domination.  Interrupted in the middle of watching a new Marx Brothers’ film, Winston Churchill would be asked by spy master, Ian Fleming,  if it would be alright for expert in German neo-paganism, Aleister Crowley, to interview the German leader.  Churchill declined. 

     “Yes, as well he should have,” said historian, Gilbert N. Sullivan.  “The British royal family was filled with German spies, Crowley had lived in Egypt and Hess had grown up in Alexandria, Egypt.  Pyramid climbers in costume.  How could Winston have written his books on his appreciation of democracy while leaning on Crowley's twisted advice? Remember that the Duke of Windsor married Wallace Simpson whom he met at the Coronado Hotel in San Diego, California where today the U.S. Navy Seal head quarters are built in the shape of a Nazi swastika.  With John Fitzgerald Kennedy’s father beholding to the New England power elites and supporting Hitler's European initiatives, Churchill was cornered.   The Kennedys were themselves knee deep in German connections as evidenced by the 1930’s business plot and Fred Koch’s construction of many of Germany’s oil refineries, not to mention his American oil broker, William Rhodes Davis, father of California’s future Governor Gray Davis.  Winston had much to worry about.  He wisely sent Joseph Kennedy packing with FDR’s help, though Roosevelt was no stranger to the intrigue as his family's fortunes attest. He then put the German Saxe-Gotha Prince, the Duke of Windsor and Wallace Simpson on ice in the Bahamas where they could do no harm,” said Sullivan noting that Wallace Simpson was nearly daily receiving flowers from one of Germany leading generals.  The British interest in the Bahamas wouldn't focus on the islands again until James Bond visited there in Thunderball.   James avoided visiting the Windsor's bungalow.

     Sullivan believes that with the German American Bund’s desire to stay out of the war even as they profited off of it, even though many leading American Jews were seeking U.S. intervention to save their families, including the future head of the Motion Picture Industry, attorney Louis Nizer, that the American power elites showed their own fascist sentiments.

     Albert Broccoli saw in this devilish drama the mixture for a Broccoli cheese soup of a spy plot.  He would not unveil the fact that Ian Fleming  whose family connection to the eventual merger of Jardine Matheson, the Scottish equivalent of America’s Russell Trust, was knee deep in the Chinese opium trade as had been the British Empire which was now being led by the Windsor’s and a tortured Winston Churchill.    “Tortured because he knew damn well that the Windsor’s who were from the Hessian region of Saxe-Gotha Germany and had changed their name to hide the reality of it and because he knew in America the Irish Kennedys were second tier power elites, eating the table scraps from the American China traders who had usurped the British East India Co.’s control of the lucrative Middle East poppy fields,” said Sullivan.  “They could sell Irish whiskey to the Irish, but they dare not over step their ambitions,” he continued.

     “What you have in James Bond is the appearance of a loyal servant who in spying for his Majesty’s secret service is clearing away the chaff of the old Soviet Empire or the other evil empire, Spectre.  Good will triumph over evil and he will kill any mo-fo that gets in the way of her Majesty’s majesty,” Sullivan asserted.  “Problem is that Winston Churchhill would not have seen it that way especially after his daughter-in-law divorced his son and married Averill Harriman whose company gave Prescott Bush, a member of the 1930's business plot that aligned with the Duke of Windsor and with Henry Ford, Harvey Firestone, John Burroughs and Charlie Lindbergh, who was given  a job at Brown Brothers Harriman.  At that point I am sure that Winston was wondering just how much of the truth must be covered with a swarm of lies and whether Queen Victoria’s servant man, John Brown, was the English forerunner of the Russell Trust’s British colleagues and perhaps even a member of Baltimore’s Alexander Brown family and the clan of galvanizing warrior, John Brown,  the American abolitionist.  Were they related to Eva Braun?” asked Sullivan noting the American power elites' connection to University Heidelberg, the bastion of secret societies in the German neo-pagan and Thule traditions?

     Broccoli, of course, had no incentive for raising any of these questions as he was seeking to market, then franchise, the Bond name.   Mythology is magical. When the American version of James Bond, Simon Templar, emerged first as a novel character and then as a television personality in the I Spy, Get Smart and The Man From Uncle era, Templar’s creator had no reason to tell us that his family ties were to West Coast shipping through which must pass the very products for which the New England China traders had fought so desperately to take over from the British while Henry Ford, Harvey Firestone, John Burroughs and John Muir frolicked among the West Coast's forests.  "Ford benefited from the taxpayer paid roads while decrying the threat of socialized society and using Muir Woods, formerly "Eagle's Nesting Ground" in Indian lore, on post cards to stimulate auto sales.  Muir and Ford wisely rejected a photo of a Wyoming buffalo slaughter to spur travels of Eastern vacationers across the rolling plains.  Similarly, Fleming's and Broccoli's myth of James Bond pulled people to the movie houses like a magnet attracting metal shavings off the floor of Ford's auto factories.  Like the slaughtered buffaloes any mention of her Majesty's compromised family history, would not have served the bottom line.  Why should Albert or Ian pee in their own broccoli soup?

    “It’s all very entertaining, but about as far from reality as you can get,” said Sullivan.  “Kind of like what a young Marine faces while walking through a poppy field in Afghanistan long after Osama bin Laden is dead and wondering why the hell he is there.  Or like Jim Morrison, the Doors lead singer waking up in San Diego to discover that his daddy, the Admiral,  had just lead the Gulf of Tonkin affair followed by the massive invasion of Vietnam with its sights on the Golden Triangle,” said Sullivan.

Trolling for Milton Friedman's Free Market

More on The Voo Doo of Merlin-Omics
By J. Mustafa Farquar CPW News Services

      Milton Friedman, Ronald Reagan’s patron saint of free market principles and the deregulation of the American business culture laid the groundwork for the abuses of the 80’s and 90’s....particularly 1999, the years that the Glass-Steagall  Act was repealed...leading to the Merlin-Omics of the GWB and Obama years.  So says Dr. Frederick M. Mellon author of The Reconciliation of Ayn Rand.

     “Ayn Rand said famously ‘achievement without plunder’, but we all know that plunder was the goal of deregulation.  Uncle Milty failed to tell us how in a culture of increasing corporate greed and avarice the Invisible Hand of the free market didn’t become a looter of the community cookie jar.  Milty was so over the top with his rejection of the rule of law calling it instead, ‘regulation of the market’,  that I’m not sure just how America could have ever become America on the basis of the rule of law.  Is the Magna Carta considered ‘regulation’?  How about the regulation ending slavery and cannibalism?  Isn’t that ‘market regulation?’   Uncle Milty, I call him that because he was such a cute little elf, but he  certainly didn’t tell us that the monster of credit defaults and other exotic….exotic ….sounds like some harmless little ticklish butt plug, doesn’t it?.....that these  financial instruments would be used to plunder tax payers’ hard earned dollars,” said Mellon.

     “Some Dr. Frankenstein was by the admission of Dr. Paul Samuelson, the mentor of Nobel Prize winning Robert Merton, the Harvard economist whose father was Robert ‘Merlin’ Merton, the Sociologist from Columbia University whose cross campus nemesis was fellow sociologist and critic of the U.S. Military Industrial Complex, C. Wright Mills,” said Mellon referencing Peter Pezonus’ article on the ‘credit default swap father’s’ father. 
 


Pezonus has written:

THE MOSES VS. JOSEPH TRADITIONS

In 2000 the election of George W. Bush provided economists Robert Merton and Myron Scholes and their complex, incomprehensible, Nobel Prize winning economic formulations and rationale for toxic asset swaps and questionable hedge fund management, a playground for economic disaster.

Sweden, the nation that is seeking to extradite Julian Assange from England so that he can be extradited to the U.S., showed its apparent love of runic riddles as well as the Merton/Scholes gnostic formulations. Sweden awarded Long Term Capital Management Inc. (LTCM), Merton's hedge fund, the Swedish Central Bank's Prize in Economics. Merton's firm lost over $1 billion in 48 hours. LTCM would be bailed out of its crisis by Henry Paulson, Alan Greenspan and the Federal Reserve using taxpayers sovereign dollars. America's Ambassador to Sweden under the Clinton and Bush administrations had been the Chief Legal Counsel to the biggest of the "too big to fail banks"... Citibank... another bailout recipient. Meanwhile, as the "too big to fail" Wall Street banking houses made off as the bandits they are, 92% of America's local banks remained solvent.

Robert Mertons' father, a sociologist and expert in Egyptology and its emphasis on pyramidal structures and mystery religion, apparently disregarded the Jewish Moses Tradition in lieu of the lesser Jewish Joseph Tradition....of throwing the brothers a few crumbs versus leading them to freedom.

Unlike Robert Merton Sr.'s only son his renegade colleague and author of The Power Elite, C. Wright Mills, proved a prophetic voice in an increasingly gilded wilderness. Mills had chronicled the typical shenanigans of those that collect their booty for supporting the beast of America's Military Industrialist Complex describing this concordat among the elites as the dominant socializing ethic in need of repair. In a way, Robert Merton Jr's. mentor, economist Paul Samuelson, validated C. Wright Mill's critique when he chided his younger protege' for providing the justification for creating the Wall Street rape of America. Paul Samuelson spoke clearly before his death of the Frankenstein monster he and fellow economics professors at MIT and Harvard had created. Unfortunately he did not shout very loudly when his nephew, Lawrence Summers, former Treasury Secretary, pushed for the repeal in 1999 of the Glass-Steagall Act, the 1933 post-Depression legislation that reigned in the Wall Street speculators. When Larry Summers, Alan Greenspan and Kenneth Lay leaned on California's Governor Gray Davis to deregulate the oil and gas industry leading to the Enron debacle and eventually to Gray Davis' recall, Uncle Paul Samuelson was as silent as a canary with laryngitis and a beak packed with peanut butter.

David Stockman, Ronald Reagan's chief economic advisor, has said of Merton's mentor, Paul Samuelson..."Paul Samuelson was not one who mourned the replacement of the 1933 Glass-Steagall by the 1999 Gramm-Leach-Biley Act."

     “Pezonus had it right,” said Mellon who believes that when the 2008 Paulson bail out occurred on the back of American taxpayers it was because the Glass-Steagall Act had been repealed in William Jefferson Clinton’s last year in office and just before what the Supreme Court appointed  ‘the little boy with his hand in the nation’s cookie jar  and created the ‘Presidents gone wild’ freak show of American politics from 2000-2008.  This favored son handed Obama a ghoulish economic scenario which Obama basically continued without strings…..meaning ‘regulating strings’ attached,” said Mellon.

     Mellon believes that Joseph vs. the Moses analogy is  a powerful one for understanding just what happened in 2008.  Joseph was the servant of the Pharaoh.  Moses was the reformer who democratized life with the delegation of authority and empowerment of all people.  "You had in Robert 'Merlin' Merton combined with his work with Paul Lazarfeld the model for developing a Global-Gestalt....the propagandizing of the people through mass indoctrination and manipulation.  In the post-World War II environment political and economic ideologies battled for control.  Using focus groups and studies in bureaucracy, deviance, mass communication, the sociology of knowledge, insider and outsider perspectives and obliteration through incorporation Merton and Lazarfeld were able to arm the pharaohs of Wall Street with the resources they needed for control.  As with other institutions like Stanford and the Stanford Research Institute, Merton and Lazarfeld's research was partially funded by the Central Intelligence Agency which has its start with the OSS or Office of Strategic Services which met initially at Rockefeller Center in New York.  At Princeton, Lazarfeld had developed the Office of Radio Research and Lazarfeld's students became the presidents of CBS, NBC and ABC.  In 1944, when Lazarfeld moved from Princeton to Columbia University where Merton would join him, the ORR was renamed the Bureau of Applied Social Research or BASR.  In the 1950's and 60's Columbia became the leading university for social research.  The fact that the father of this research was also the father of the credit-default instruments that tanked the U.S. economy has not been studied with any degree of seriousness.  The fearless defender of American capitalism, Charlie Rose, missed the opportunity to probe this issue with a panel of  Robert C. Merton and his mentor, Paul Samuelson before his death and their critics.  Rose, after all, lives in New York and as Moses learned, to bite the hand of the Pharoah, can mean a long walk in the wilderness.

The most significant element of Lazarfeld and Merton's research was the power of collective amnesia, held not by the collective, but by its handlers.  This was what was passed on with the repeal of Glass-Steagall.  Moreover, it was the aim of John D. Rockefeller in his backing of the Oriental Institute in Chicago which had as its goal the reinstatement of historical research into Egyptian, Persian and Middle-Eastern Oriental philosophies and culture which Western Civilization had by-in-large rejected on its quest toward greater autonomy through the Renaissance, Enlightenment, Reformation and beyond.  It was these important points of reference that new mind science and research methods influenced by Larsfeld, Merton and others sought to eliminate from inquiry just as had the mumbo jumbo of credit-default swaps and other Gordian nooses.  New methods of academic research like 'grounded theory' were not grounded in anything that touched on historical evidence which Robert Lynd foresaw as the coming of research without a selective point of view or what he called the "ditty bag of an idiot".  Focus groups were for the here and now and the short news cycle achieved in mass communication the tool for triggering the collective amnesia.  Severed from its history by a mind science that rewarded the breakdown the population could be easily controlled.  Academia recruited bright young minds that would betray themselves easily. Education became then, not the means to knowing how to think, but of what to think.  Cut off from their history the population could more easily be convinced to make bricks with less straw, but also to chase an illusive 'American Dream' of building their own little pyramids on easy money with bigger bedrooms, more granite topped kitchen counters, sub-prime loans, bundled mortgages held by the big banks as jobs shipped to foreign countries without the inconvenience of the time-honored Western mindset.  As Dave Ramsey yelled "freedom" from the 30 year mortgage, housewives and husbands saw their home as a piggy bank and refinanced it or sold it off for a step up to a newer bigger one while rationalizing that the feeling of freedom while liberating, was a distant second to the pain that burdened living under a new sub-prime mortgage rate injected into their routines. The majority of the local banks knew what was happening, but did nothing to reverse it for fear of the Federal Reserve and bam! Hello Hank Paulson!

    Mellon believes that with over 90% of local banks solvent at the time of the Henry Paulson “bail out” of Wall Street and with a shift from paying off toxic assets by helping home owners whose mortgages were upside down to cash infusion into the still unregulated banking system as evidenced by the continuing rejection of a Glass-Steagall measure partitioning banking houses from investment houses, that the money was siphoned off and is still being siphoned off.

     “Yep, it was siphoned off like a bandit sucking gasoline right out of your fuel tank.  Now, with claims that jobs are on the rise the bandits at the Federal Reserve want the banks to kick up interest rates to spur the housing market.  That's not really out of buyer's growing confidence and embrace of a stronger economy, but out of continuing banker's greed and their using fear that the rates will go up even higher to make more ill-gotten gains.  It's salt in the still open wound.  It's another shell game stimulated by fear and intimidation, a carnival hawker's well-known strategy.  The big banks were first in line with only one bank providing some level of apparent moral responsibility….Bank of America.  I said ‘apparent’.  Bank of America has its roots like Transamerica Co. in the shady Vatican Bank.  Bank of America actually did some of the siphoning with Ken Lewis’ claim that his bank was solvent and didn’t need the money, but  was being forced to take it anyway and then in an action totally objectionable under Glass-Steagall  he was being forced to acquire the investment house of Merrill Lynch, formerly Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner and Smith….with the Pierce being the family of Barbara Pierce Bush.  It was a scene right out of Casablanca with the French Vichy police chief decrying the shell games at Rick's Bar on the one hand,  while taking payoff money on the other.  Then you have to figure that much of the rest of the money was hidden right under our noses in plain sight.  So if it didn’t go to help the home buyers then it went somewhere else.  To AIG and Paulson's long table of big banks?  Yes, but a chunk to the 5-8% of the local banks that were not solvent at the time of bailout.  I would look to small mortgage companies that held large tracks of undeveloped or under-developed properties as the real estate market tanked, then claimed in bankruptcy that it was worth far more than it was while sympathetic bankruptcy judges decided in their favor.  In the months before Paulson's TARP announcement I'd look for those judges taking what appears to be some high profile stance against the corruption they secretly embrace.  Perhaps a district-wide letter to bankruptcy attorneys with warnings against bamboozling the legal system.  That may sound like conspiratorial paranoia, but must I remind you that Tammany Hall included thousands of conspirators as have other national scandals including the Savings and Loan scandal of the 80's.   With many, many more of these threatened, but solvent, local banks than the 'too big to fail' monsters standing in line, where did the TARP money go?  Was the money  hidden within the mushy local real estate markets with evaluations in the bankruptcy court decisions yielding a huge profit with the money being hot wired to secret accounts in the Caymans, given out in unjustifiable executive compensation as when Bank of America acquired Merrill Lynch.  There is reason to believe that Western Bank in Texas was declared by court order 'bankrupt' when it was not and the money vanished.  With renewed confidence stimulated by the TARP money the bank stocks went up.  Amazingly the stock market climbs while the national debt is through the roof....no through the stratosphere!  This gave justification for a rise in bank stocks which in turn was used to repay TARP, but from whose money the bamboozled public, again?  The little investors who couldn't pay their mortgages?” said Mellon noting a continuation in the Hank Paulson bailout of the earlier 1980's Savings and Loan scandal and the upward redistribution of U.S. wealth which has been well chronicled. 
     "I can imagine that many of these failing local banks partnered  together in what under Glass-Steagall would have been a crime, took the TARP money, then saw their stock price go up, perhaps saying like Ken Lewis that they didn't need it and gave the money back  just as they were laundering it like a Chinese steam cleaner, then finding new investors jumping in with money from who knows where and life is a cabaret!" said Mellon.  "The bankers see it like a surgeon sees the systolic and diastolic pumping action of the human heart.  As long as its pumping in Boston or San Francisco, Chicago, New York or Houston, Dallas and Miami, who cares if the blood flows through a few backwater war-torn nations where innocents are killed in collateral damage, or as sociologist father of Robert Merton, also Robert Merton, coined....'unintended consequences'?" asked Mellon.  "Unintended?  Huh!" Mellon blurted.
     Mellon's eyes were glazed.  “Dr. Paul Samuelson’s assessment of the rape by the Frankenstein monster he had a hand in creating was not strong enough.  When the Moses Tradition is jettisoned for the Joseph Tradition....forget the damn Jesus Tradition....that would take a friggin' miracle to achieve....and then when the judges that the Moses Tradition has anointed identify with only Pharaoh, you get 1999,  2000 and 2008...and Obama's continuations of the same.  These were the actions of subterranean root maggots, bottom feeding Fascist shysters without a moral compass who believe that humanity has an obligation to reverse engineer itself into slime.  The public is culpable for not having called their hand, sticking their own heads up their fat bottoms so far that they believed they all deserved to live in Versailles.  Everyone had a moral obligation, too, and that was to have....as with the abusive leadership of Louis and Marie Antoinette  in France, King George of England or Caligula in Italy…..to sharpen up the guillotine!” said Mellon.
     Meanwhile, 46% of Americans even after the painful lessons of Paulson's 2008 panic attack have only $800 in their savings accounts, which is $800 more than the U.S. government has when the multi-trillion deficit is taken into account.

Wallenda Weighs Next Feat

Wallenda To Wire-Walk Egypt’s Pyramids While Holding Cobras

by Farhad Mufmuzzi for CPW News Services

     Following the success of his Discovery Channel spectacular, Nik Wallenda’s wire-walking the Grand Canyon as over 13,000,000 viewers observed, Wallenda is now preparing for his biggest feat, yet.   

     “Wallenda will attempt to walk a wire connected to the pinnacles of the three Great Pyramids of Egypt without a net and while holding a King Cobra in each hand,” said spokesperson Felix Wallenda.

     Never attempted by any wire-walker, the Great Pyramids present a particularly difficult challenge.  The center pyramid is 449.5 feet high and the angle of the ascent and descent to and from its apex is believed by retired wire –walker, Gaspar “The Great” Wobeller of Bucharest, Hungary to be more difficult than Wallenda’s Grand Canyon and Niagara Falls stunts.

     “To insure that Mr. Wallenda’s challenge is his greatest ever, Felix Wallenda has informed the International Association of High Wire-Walkers meeting this week in Prague that Mr. Wallenda will replace his balancing bar with two King Cobras,” said Gaspar Wobeller.  “He will do all of this while singing the Gospel hymn, “Go Down Moses,” said Wobeller.

The Great Pyramids of Egypt have never been
walked by a wire-walker.

     
     Meanwhile, television pastor, Joel O’Steen, who prayed for Wallenda before the Grand Canyon walk on Sunday, June 23^rd, said that he didn’t feel comfortable  providing another prayer like the one that he said on Sunday night if Wallenda was going to carry Cobras.  O'Steen is reported to have said, "we don't do that anymore."

     Rev. Rufus T. Hatfield of Possum Hollow, West Virginia and pastor of the Holiness Church of the Serpent Handlers,  said that he would be available to provide a prayer before Wallenda’s proposed pyramid walk which will be televised on the Discovery Channel, the History Channel and the Trinity Broadcasting Network.

STEPPING TO FETCH JAMES COMEY

Robert Luskin, Karl Rove and the  Comey Connections

 By Peter Pezonus CPW News Service

     The June 21^st, 2013 appointment of James B. Comey as Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation  appears to be the elevation of the Constitution's champion despite Comey's support of Presidential candidate Mitt Romney.    The magnanimity designed to catalyze acceptance of the former aide to Judge John M. Walker of New York whose law partner, Robert Luskin, is attorney for Karl Rove, will surely not be missed in Senate confirmation hearings.  Or will it?

     “Yes, well, one must remember that Barack Obama, while a graduate of Harvard and resident of Hyde Park, Illinois where John D. Rockefeller pumped a steady flow of myth making dollars into the educational system including a renaissance in Near Eastern, Egyptian, Persian and other pyramidal models of outmoded governance, married an attorney, Michelle, who worked in the historic Republican law firm of Mrs. Mary Todd Lincoln.  That law firm, Sidley Austin, merged in 2000 with the New York law firm of Brown and Wood with its historic ties to Brown Brother Harriman.  Brown Brothers Harriman is organically linked to Brown and Root and KBR, the leading services and products provider for the U.S. military. 
     Comey was instrumental in bringing down John Gotti and key members of the Gambino crime family, but that meant his alliance with Mayor Rudy Giuliani and his ball-buster, Bernie Kerik.  Kerik would become L. Paul Bremer’s chief of security in Iraq after the fall of Saddam Hussein.  Kerik went to jail on corruption charges and would be followed by U.S. Army Colonel and West Point ethics professor, Theodore “Ted” Westhusing, who died following a bitter confrontation with General David Petraeus over contractor corruption and unnecessary civilian deaths.  Westhusing supposedly committed suicide four hours after the confrontation, a claim that is widely disputed," said Barry M. Goode, spokesperson for Citizens With Eyes Wide Open in Sleepy Hollow, New York.

    "Mitt Romney's Bain Capital had dismantled the San Diego newpaper when it acquired that company.  At the same time William Gore, the FBI agent in charge of the Ruby Ridge, Idaho case where Randy Weaver's wife was killed by FBI sniper Lon Hourichi as she held her 10 month old baby was elected San Diego's sheriff.  San Diego is home of the U.S. Navy Seals whose headquarters is shaped like a Nazi swastika.  It is also where the Duke of Windsor met Nazi spy Wallace Simpson in the months before World War II as the German America Bund, U.S. fascist business leaders including Henry Ford, Harvey Firestone, John Burroughs, Charles Lindbergh and Prescott Bush whose 'Business Plot' was foiled by General Smedley Darlington Butler," said Goode noting that since his becoming the County Sheriff William Gore has threatened to use sometimes fatal high frequency sound weapons on citizens at public meetings.

     At the center of Hyde Park, Illinois as with Manhattan where Rockefeller Center housed the forerunner of the CIA, the OSS, is the University of Chicago’s Oriental Institute.   The Oriental Institute is not there to explore the New England China Trader’s ambitions in Peking, Shanghai, Tokyo of Hong Kong, but the historic contributions of Egyptian and Persian culture to Western Civilization.  Funded by John D. Rockefeller whose attorney, Ivy Lee, often referred to as “Poison Ivy” by Upton Sinclair for his part in the propagandizing of the Ludlow, Colorado massacre at the Rockefeller coal mine, Ivy Lee was also a leader in the “Business Plot” of 1930 which sought to recruit two-time Congressional Medal of Honor winner, General Smedley Darlington Butler, in a coup to topple FDR. 

     Ivy Lee, considered the "father of modern public relations" and whose primary competitor was Edward Bernays,  was investigated for his part in the “Business Plot”.  In 1929 Ivy Lee became the public relations counsel for German pharmaceutical company, IG Farben, makers of Zyklon B, with Farben’s connections to Max Warburg and brother Paul, a founder of the U.S. Federal Reserve System.  Rockefeller’s interest in the German American Bund, IG Farben and the “Business Plot” when combined with other monopolistic business practices following the Ludlow incident suggest that the dimes he handed out on U.S. street corners was a public relations ploy to conceal a deeper interest in pyramidal, pharisaic business structures and imperial ambitions.  "If Rockefeller had been truly remorseful after the 1914 Ludlow incident would he have been backing the Fascist business plotters in 1930?" asked Barry Goode.

     Gunther Von Dovya of the Society of Former PR Executives in Chicago said, “Obama’s actions relative to his rubber stamping nearly every Bush initiative including his avoiding the reinstatement of Habeas Corpus, failure to reinstate the equivalent of Glass-Steagall Act after Paulson and Greenspan’s blunderings, giving Paulson's raiders money with no strings attached is problematic.  Obama's warrantless wiretaps, increasingly targeting government whistleblowers and paying nearly blind allegiance to the dogs of war...then fetching Comey for the FBI.... are the same characteristics that would have made excellent participants in the Tuskegee Experiment.   In spite of Comey's supposed support of the U.S. Constitution as evidenced by his stand off with Bush's Attorney General, Alberto Gonzales, over wire tapping, something isn't right here.    Comey was legal counsel for the biggest U.S. corporations including Lockheed Martin.  The large telecoms and other communication corporations do not have a great history of opposing cock-eyed executive orders.  Not unlike Rockefeller’s funding of the Oriental/Egyptian contribution to Western Culture that was definitely a mixed bag of nuts and bolts in a slurry of toxic drilling sludge that's antithetical to most of the dominant values of Western Civilization from Greek democratic principles to the Magna Carta to Washington, Franklin and Jefferson's vision of the future, Obama is learning his lessons from the best....or worst....depending on your point of view," Von Dovya concluded.

YALE ENGLISH PROFESSOR’S NEW BOOK TO SOLVE LONGSTANDING DNA DEBATE

Edward Ball’s New Book, BLOOD RELATIONS:  THE WALKER/BUSH LEGACY , traces The DNA of renegade filibusterer William Walker and George Herbert Walker Bush.

By Furman D. Hyde for CPW News Services

    With the success of his 1998 book Slaves in the Family which won the 1998 National Book Award for non-fiction followed by The Inventor and the Tycoon,  a spell-binding account of the relationship between railroad tycoon, LeLand Stanford and  inventor, Eeadweard Muybridge, Edward Ball moves on to his greatest challenge while promising to disclose the solution of another longstanding DNA mystery.

 

    “It’s high time that someone with Ball’s…well…balls...tackled this explosive subject.  Few are as capable as Ball to tell it.  A masterful storyteller with a front row seat to the evolution of the American military industrial complex which parallels the fall of slavery.   Ball is both a Brown University graduate and Yale professor.  For Slaves in the Family, Ball carried samples of his family’s DNA to the lab to verify, just as had the families of  Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemmings, that things are often much difference than they seem.  You simply can’t read a book by its cover,” said Dr. Patrick "Pat" R. Gonea of the Society for DNA Verification of Historical Evidence.

     "It's high-time somebody did what Ball is doing.  Winsip Custer, after discovering that an article by  Bard Willett Williamson, Ivy League Woes: Yale, Yale, The Gangs All Here , was redacted from his website, also discovered that two Custer articles in English and Spanish calling of the DNA analysis of William Walker vanished completely from his on-line files and emails," said Dr. Gonea.  "That's correct," said Custer, "I'd resubmit it, but what's the point until someone of Ball's stature knocks the issue out of park across the center field fence?  The elected leader of Honduras was in exile in Brazil and a CIA shill named Micheletti held down the Presidency.  The government went to Porfirio 'Pepe' Lobo Sosa.   Roberto Micheletti's and Sosa's critics began dying in Honduras after Sosa replaced Jose Manuel Zayala who while in exile resigned his presidency in a letter he claims he never wrote.   As part of a coalition of South American countries joined together against what they have always felt was William Walker's influence.  They include Cuba, Venezuela and Bolivia. Bolivia was especially sensitive to American  intervention because of the Bechtel "water wars" and the temptation to exploit Bolivia for its vast Lithium deposits.  The articles called for the exhumation of William Walker's body from Cementerir Viejo in Trujillo, Honduras for confirmation of Walker's relationship to GHWB.  It looks to me that Micheletti whose father was from Lombardy, Italy and who spent much of the 1970's in Tampa, Florida and New Orleans, Louisiana, was the resurrection of the Batista criminal class in Central America holding off what will be argued was Zayala's leftists.  It's a big merry-go-round, without much that's merry.   I assume that it wasn't in the best interest of someone in the U.S. State Department to allow Zayala's resistance.  Perhaps they are afraid that they cannot make a palatable distinction between the Monroe Doctrine and a modern Aaron Burr or William Walker annexation attempt and so cloak it all under the dialectic of left-right politics.  It's there that William Walker's family and constellations of corporations can hide their motives quite nicely.   Comments were made by readers of the article I had written which disappeared and I had responded to them.  Those have all, quiet mysteriously vanished by someone powerful enough to hack my server or influence my web provider and remove the two articles and comments, one in English and the other in Spanish," said Custer.

   Human Rights Watch has reported at least ten journalists and nine members of the Micheletti and Sosa opposition and supporters of Liberal Honduran President Zayala were murdered since Sosa came to office in 2010," said Custer confirming Gonea's claim.

 

     “Just as Ball makes the claim that former Ball slaves know all about the real history of their ‘masters’, so Latin Americans, especially in Central America…..Honduras, Guatemala, Panama, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Belize, Honduras, Baja California and Cuba, know that the ‘Grey Eyed Man of Destiny’ is a key member of the Walker/Bush family,” said Gonea who worries that after Zayala was exiled the body of William Walker was exhumed and destroyed. 

     Dr. Gonea has encouraged the Honduran government to seal the tomb of William Walker so that a proper DNA analysis can be made.  A source close to Mr. Ball has indicated that this was done in 2009 and that the results of the DNA testing will be made in his book which will benefit public libraries in Honduras, El Salvador and Nicaragua.  "Even if the body was destroyed, there are his ancestors.  They'd have to kill them all and bury the evidence," said Gonea who believes that the future of DNA analysis to assist human evolution toward a more just and loving human race will be established in cases such as the Jefferson/Hemmings, Edward Ball and Walker/Bush examples.  "We know that a kennel full of nothing but pit bulls is not desirable," said Gonea who believes that ethics are both learned and genetically predispositioned.  "Carl Sagan and other outstanding scientists have argued convincingly that regressional evolution toward an earlier amoebic state is both counter scientific and counter intuitive," said Gonea.

 

     Dr. Gonea was asked, 'given William Walker’s desire to annex Baja California for a Western terminus for a Southern Transcontinental Railroad in 1850, did this influence Edward Ball’s publication of his book about LeLand Stanford?'   Gonea answered:  “That I can’t say, though if you look at the fact that the Confederacy's President, Jefferson Davis laid out the rail route from Texas to Santa Fe to San Diego, the South Carolinians would have likely known of the Southern rail ambitions.  Certainly there remains strong ties of Leland Stanford to Union Pacific Railroad and to control of the Southern Pacific that would not be built until ten years after the Central route and just after Reconstruction ended.   Then, there are the ties to E.H. Harriman whose Brown Brothers Harriman employed Prescott Bush and ties back to Baltimore's Alexander Brown and even to Brown University which Edward Ball attended. Given William Walker’s desire to extend a Golden Circle of Slavery around the entire Caribbean basin in the 1850’s with his staging point for the annexation of Honduras being New Orleans  and Texas, both centers of influence of Giuseppe Mazzini's Italian followers, Albert Pike's slavers and William Walker's filibustering mercenaries.   After Walker's failed filibustering attempt in Baja the connections to tyrannical Stanford and to other Bush and Walker legacies seem solidly logical.  The DNA evidence will tell.   When you couple this with a description of the 2012 Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney's video of Bain Capital's investments in China, business enterprises built upon Caleb Cushing's early opium smuggling as well as the source of Coolies who had built Stanford's railroad and Colton's Southern route and the historical connections come full circle.  We did in China what Hunter S. Thomspon says happened in Puerto Rico:  "This country was built on genocide and slavery. We killed all the black guys over here and then we shipped in new black guys of our own. And then we brought in Jesus like a bar of soap."  Karl Rove as the Republican Party's brain trust,  Walker's 19th Century vision of a Golden Circle of slavery seems also to have come full circle, but to have grown in scope.   The Chinese didn't like the Cushing arrangement as evidence by Mao's Cultural Revolution which was replaced by the current Chinese industrial machinery run by a mutated form of freedom-shacklers, but with an eye for a slick and glossy storefront.  Remember that Barack Obama has held to Bush policies and Michele Obama worked at Sidley Austin Law Firm in Springfield, Illinois, the historic law firm of Mrs. Mary Todd Lincoln a cousin of slaver John C. Breckenridge.  The parties are as close as a pubescent couple in the back seat of a coupe in Saturday night rainstorm.   Sidley Austin is a firm long associated with defending Bush policies as well as tied through Brown and Wood law firm of New York and to what Smedley Butler called 'The National City Bank boys of Brown and Root and Kellogg Brown and Root, KBR that supplies the U.S. military in full measure.  We must always remember the description of Golden Dancer in that wonderful novel Inherit The Wind.  In China there are rising spectacularly glistening cities with some seeking to use 80 percent renewable energy, but behind these breathe-taking edifices is a tyrannical government and the bludgeoning of the individual rights just as in Arab oil cities backed as they are by head and hand-chopping dynasties.    Behind Mitt Romney with his description of Bain Capital's investments is China is a story of fear, coercion and injustice.  Edward Ball’s new book should, however, be like the sword that cuts the Gordian Knot of the matter as did the DNA analysis of the Jefferson and Hemmings descendants.  What will be left up in the air is the degree to which the Bay of Pigs,  Grenada, Iran-Contra, Chile and other excursions into Central and South America by our CIA were really just William Walker filibustering attempts under a different name…..The Monroe Doctrine!” said Gonea who is concerned that as the U.S. criminal class continues its William Walker style walkabouts, the Chinese are lining up along the U.S. Southern border and exploiting the 'Order's' greed," said Gonea who noted that there are plans for the Chinese to build in Nicaragua a rival to the Panama Canal.  "If Americans were wanting to trigger the Monroe Doctrine, you would think this would do it, unless as we now know, the Chinese criminal elites are in cahoots with the American criminal elites....the two transcontinental railroads all over again with different nations, but the same agenda!"

       "It means, of course, that the Cold War was a scam, or else why didn't the U.S. abolish NATO and partner with the Russians after the fall of the Berlin Wall....with all of their history of opposing Fascism behind them both?   The fact is that the fall of Soviet Fascism that used the traditional meaning of 'socialism' for its own ends had been defeated, but U.S. Fascists were not about to embrace the liberated former Soviet workers as Noam Chomsky has explained, that would be to return the U.S. body politic to its core value.  It means that Smedley Butler was correct when he said he was a 'goon for the National City Bank boys on three continents and that war is a racket belonging to a brutal few," said Gonea suggesting that the Bush/Walker clan and Prescott Bush's involvement in the 1930's "Business Plot" and German American Bund shows that this group favors Fascism, also evidenced by Fred Koch's founding membership in the John Birch Society, which rejected the logical partnering with the new Russians-come-of-age," said Gonea.  "'Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall, but don't expect us to accept you Russians as full partners just because we teamed up together to defeat Fascism.  Why?  Because we want those Afghanistan poppy fields for ourselves, the ones that Caleb Cushing and friends exported to China in the 1800's to today and because I kind of like Fascism so long as it can be hidden under the veil of democracy and freedom and defended by an unlimited budget for the arsenal that defends the myth,' Ronnie should have said in all honesty!" said Gonea noting the contrivances of U.S. drug policy that prohibits on the one hand, while exporting the weapons of war and even the entire U.S. military's war racket to protect those same fields under the guise of eradication on the other, while the New England China Traders are described as "tea merchants".  "Operation Zapata, the code name for the Bay of Pigs was also the name of George Herbert Walker Bush's oil company in the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean.  Bush has claimed it was named after the Marlon Brandon's 1959 film Viva Zapata!  Brando would go on in 1968 to play William Walker in Burn! and everyone knows Brando's protests of the treatment of indigenous peoples.  William Walker was also a role played by actor Ed Harris.  As with the announcement of the killing of Osama bin Laden  with the code name 'Geronimo' whose family had purchased with the help of George W. Bush friend, James R. Bath, the small Houston airport where NASA astronauts parked their private planes, in the dark world of the power elites much is encrypted," said Gonea.

 

     Gonea has convincingly argued that Edward Ball’s excursion into the relationship between Stanford and Muybridge in The Inventor and the Tycoon is important because of the place that motion pictures would play in the propagandizing of Americans with the dominant American myth.   "Hollywood makes America's version of the Golden Dancer," said Gonea noting that Standford's family used the gold rush of 1849 to make fortunes not in gold alone, but in the tools used to dig it the hardware used to build the homes of those attracted to it and the transportation for those seeking to mine it.   "Winning a horse race with a fast Thoroughbred was one thing, but making that horse into a Golden Dancer through which you could mesmerize the populace was a horse of a different color.  On the other hand, Stanford’s horse ranch, Palo Alto, was not just home to Stanford University, but also to The Hoover Institute which produced Anthony Sutton whose works on the secret establishment in America have now been widely accepted and the Stanford Research Institute with its leadership by Myron du Bain.  You know Myron du Bain as the real personality behind the film The Men Who Stare At Goats and who used SRI in a variety of CIA mind science studies.  Stanford is also the home of Philip Zimbardo whose Stanford Prison Study is believed by many to have informed the model used at Abu Ghraib Prison in Baghdad.   Donald Rumsfeld who own Misery Plantation where Frederick Douglas was ‘renditioned’ is a member of the Hoover Institute along with Dick Cheney and Condoleeza Rice,” said Gonea.

WHAT CSOPE LEAVES OUT: HONESTY IN EDUCATION

Jessica Chasmar of the Washington Times: 

• Are 5^th graders smarter than the rest of us and why are they asking "Mommy, what is Thermite?" 
•  "Mommy, if 15 of the 19 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia why did we invade Iraq?
•  "Mommy, when A President's first born son becomes the President are we becoming more like the Saudi Royal family or the British?

 by Dee Dee Rink Umbemeheri CPW News Services

  Those may not be her questions exactly, but Jessica Chasmar of the Washington Times reported on March 21, 2013 that a Texas mother, Kara Sands, has some hard questions.  She is concerned that her fifth grade son was the target of anti-American propaganda being taught in her son's public school.  The sniper? His public school teacher.

     The teacher's quiz titled “Remembering September 11^th, administered by the Flour Bluff School District contained the question “Why might the U.S. have been a target of terrorism?”

    Sands, the boy's mother, told KRIS-TV “I’m not going to justify radical terrorists by saying that we did anything to deserve that over 3,000 people die.”

    Though the quiz was not part of the CSOPE curriculum, some parents felt that the issue should be brought before the local school board.  CSOPE is a type of Texas clearinghouse for acceptable public school curriculums.  Mrs. Sands also noted that the quiz identified food and medicine as "rights" and asked for students' agreement or disagreement.  Mrs. Sands said that her son's answer to that question had been marked "no" and counted wrong because he did not think that it's the government's place to provide food and medicine.  "Does that mean that the school nurse will be let go?" asked Lilly Paddington of Peoria, Illinois upon hearing of the Sand's family plight.

     “Jessica Chasmar’s newspaper, the conservative alternative to the Washington Post, and founded by South Korean religious leader of the Moonies, the Unification Church, Sun Myung Moon in 1982, may have had a significant stake in what is taught in Mrs. Sand’s school system.  The head of the security for all of South America for the Unification Church, Gerhard Peemoeller, once owned a home site near Sands' school,” said Judianne Gurry, of the group Dark Side of the Moonie Watchers who recommended reading about Moon's relationship to George Herbert Walker Bush.  "Nobody wants schools to be a tool of propaganda one way or the other.  They should be a place where children are taught how to think, not what to think," said Gurry, "but reporting from a Moonie newspaper is already problematic and marking a fifth grader's answer to the food and medicine question as 'wrong' is telling him not how to think, but what to think.  Unfortunately after the Food for Oil Scandal at the United Nations which included a Texas oil man how do you get a fifth grader to think ethically about whether food and water should be a weapon of U.S. foreign policy?" asked Gurry.

    Elsewhere, members of a Westchester Pennsylvania school district asked “When is the CSOPE going to include in its curriculum and testing the 1930’s business plotters who were confronted by our favorite son, two time Congressional Medal of Honor winner,  General Smedley Darlington Butler?”  Butler, born in Westchester, confronted an attempted coup de tat of a sitting U.S. President, FDR, which included coup leaders Henry Ford, Charles Lindberg, Harvey Firestone, John Burroughs and Prescott Bush," according to one Westchester history teacher.  "That never makes it into the public school curriculum," the teacher maintained.

    The families of Col. Theodore “Ted” Westhusing and Lt. Pat Tillman have expressed concern that their local school curriculums do not responsibly cover real reasons for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan including Yellow Cake Uranium and an insatiable thirst for fossil fuels and poppy by-products.  "We tried to get Valerie Plame to write some of the curriculum, but that hasn't happened yet, but should," said Barney B. Westhusing.

    Members of Remember Los Alamos, a survivor’s group for those who witnessed the detonation of the first atomic bomb have expressed concerns that their local public school curriculums do not cover adequately the amount of information withheld by their government relative to the dangers of exposure to radiation to which they were unknowingly subjected.

    Mildred Prawlin, whose husband fell from a ladder and died in 1955 during a U.S. Civil Defense program called "Clean-up, Fix-up and Paint-up" while painting their Michigan home with the recommended Dutchboy lead-based white paint had her concerns, too.  She wants information in the curriculum that explains why 50 years after Europe banned lead-based paint her husband felt he had to save the house during an atomic bomb blast when the official U.S. policy was MAD, or "mutually assured destruction"?

      Members of the Tuskegee Time Travelers, a group of syphilis survivors who annually pay tribute to those brave members of the Tuskegee Experiment that rarely finds its way into even college curriculums, leveled their concern about either Mrs. Sands' conservative agenda or naiveté. “Mrs. Sands needs to understand that our government withheld information about the Tuskegee Experiment between 1932 and 1972 a gross violation of any sense of human decency,” said syphilis survivor G. Mahoney Wilikkers who admitted that he was still angry about it, but not in any way a terrorist.  "I'm a follower of non-violence," he said. 

     Dr. Lance Fisher, a member of TTT's sub-group called Henry VIII Walked With a Gate, and the son of Tuskegee Experiment victim said "Henry's VIII's wives would have been horrified at the U.S. government's Tuskogee Experiment.....before they lost their heads." 

     Henry VIII, of course, died of syphilis and the insanity associated with end-stage syphilitic brain lesions.  "My father's victimization by his government and my study of history led me into brain surgery," said Fisher.  "Henry may have remained Anne Boleyn's faithful husband if the drugs withheld from the Tuskegee patients had been given to Henry, the founder of the Anglican Church," said Wilikkers who also noted that Henry may have stayed faithful to Catherine of Aragon had she looked more like Salma Hayek, with or without producing an heir to the British throne.

      Members of Survivors of Bender's Brazen Abuse, who as children were given LSD as part of Loretta Bender's  CIA sponsored MK-Ultra's Project Bluebird conducted at New York's Bellevue Hospital between 1953-63 have likewise lodged their concerns.  "School children in the USA are not given the whole truth," said one SBBA survivor who wanted to be identified only as 'Little Bug-eyed Bluebird." 

      Civil War historian, Buford T. Beauregard of Mobile, Alabama, said that he can rarely locate in any public high school curriculum information about the plot of post-Civil War Confederates to firebomb the entire city of New York following the Civil War in which 600,000 Americans died.  "The FBI and ATF are still worried about Neo-Nazi groups and the far right and put Timothy McVeigh and Randy Weaver in that group, though they are not likely to all become like the Confederate bomb plotters of the 19th Century, but like the Unabomber, Ted Kazcynski and McVeigh, act from a mixture of their own motives that can be as convoluted as a wormhole in Alice's Wonderland," said Beauregard.  Beauregard noted President Obama's friend, William Ayers from Chicago, whose father, not unlike John Walker Lindh, the American Taliban, was a main cog in the workings of major companies in the U.S. military complex serving on several major defense company boards.  "Some of these guys, no doubt think that they are a type of Lt. Dunbar from Kevin Costner's Dances With Wolves, protesting American soul-less militarism," said Beauregard. "Flying drones over your house on a Friday night and knocking out your next door neighbor while leaving your daughter without her face can cause your thinking to fly down a wormhole, too," Beauregard concluded.

      The Council of Comparative Religions in Public Schools also weighed in on the need for broader transparency in public education.  "Without teaching comparative religion in the classroom, how will children know that Rev. Sun Myung Moon, who gave $1 million to the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library or that he bought 1.5 million acres in Paraguay and planned to build a utopian colony there not far from the Bush family's 100,000 acre ranch?"  asked Mohammed Ghandi Wesley, the CCRPS' president. 

     Julian Assange reportedly stated that some of the information he provided through Wiki Leaks has some of the members of the surviving Reuter's news team that were killed in Iraq by U.S. Apache helicopter gunships anxious to put that information into all public school curriculums.  "We're talking about the killing of our loved ones and the injury of two Iraqi school children," said one family member.  "This needs to be in our civic lessons unless we want to be branded as suffering from pandemic cranial/anal impactions," said an Assange supporter in Seattle using terminology first spoken by Dr. Lance Fisher.

     Tomas Young, the U.S. soldier who has chosen to die as a protest to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan that left him paralyzed believes that his high school curriculum was "full of horse xxxx."
     Young has asked permission for the song Tom Is Dead by Col. E.M. Bolmer to be sung at a wake in his honor shortly after his death.  Col. Bolmer said "Tomas Young is my hero. While I wrote that song for a good friend of mine from the Vietnam War, Tomas Young has my unqualified support for his courage in telling the truth as it really is and he can sing that song to the angels in heaven!"

     Col. E.M. Bolmer also knew the son of celebrated Marine Chesty Puller who stepped on a land mine in Vietnam and never really recovered fully from the trauma of it.  Chesty Puller admitted that facing his son in recovery in U.S. military hospital was the one time this fearless Marine wept openly.

     Fr. Francis Tuck, of Roman Catholics for Transparency in Journalism, said “Fifth graders are pretty smart and in time will figure things out for themselves, but to purposely provide curriculum devoid of reality for the sake of some misguided sense of what?  Community? Is absurd.  You might as well have another Inquisition!”
     “As for whether or not the government should provide for the possibility of food and medicine, the answer may be ‘no’, but it is a qualified ‘no,’" said Fr. Tuck.  "The Lord’s Prayer says…. 'Give us this day OUR daily bread,' as if Jesus believed that eating food is a God-given right for those who will sow, water and harvest, though he also seems to feed those who find themselves in a blight or fishing 'dry spell' and if a nation is going to be brazen enough to put ‘In God We Trust’ on its money….the medium of exchange of goods and services…..then it should be argued that the government not stand in the way….as in Nazi, Germany...….. of food or medicine for all people,” said Tuck of  Saint Miriam's Parish in Sherwood, South Dakota.  "If CSOPE wants to become the gatekeeper on curriculum standards it has an obligation to be truthful about the knowledge it distills.  O'Malley's Ale was said to be a most beneficial brew from the finest hops and barleys, but there was barely any hops in it and the barley was mildewed.  Rot gut stuff indeed!  You can't tell an ale by its bottle nor a book by its cover and the books that CSOPE are influencing are dangerous to the human mind's digestive system," said Fr. Tuck.
     Tuck also expressed concern that without a government's encouragement of a healthy and clean environment where sowing, watering and harvesting can safely transpire without the dumping of heavy metals and oil slick sinkers like Corexit and other various toxins that "we're all xxxxxx anyway and the Mrs. Sands' of this earth and their fifth graders can eat dirt mixed with heavy metal and bomb shrapnel."

    
     "Kara Sands whose husband is a physician who  patented clothes that have a built in a tourniquet for use by accident prone hunters or soldiers on battlefields has a vested interested in seeing that endless warfare continues," said Dottie Grimm of the Mother's United Against Armless and Legless Casualties of  War.  "There's no tourniquet for a massive head wound like my son Gary had," said Grimm.
 
     "Once the heart throb of actor Matt Damon whose anti-war rhetoric in Good Will Hunting left apparently no lasting impression on Ms. Sands, she has turned her interests to war apparel with built-in tourniquets, but we all feel that it's better to address the root causes of endless warfare: Money and profits.  Our biggest fear is not that there are terrorists out there, but that there is also a type of Murder Inc. still going on.  What keeps some real wacko from detonating a  pressure cooker bomb at  the Super Bowl because he just bought stock in a tourniquet trouser company?   We also think that when a nation teaches its children to think for themselves they will still defend freedom and liberty, but without all the bxxx sxxx thrown in," said Mrs. Grimm.
