These words whispered. These small revolutions that make my world go round and round. The sound of chalk in the streets whispered voices of resistance. These days as I board buses and subways I whisper, no blood for oil. No blood for oil. Other days I feel like Carrie by Stephen King. Coated in petroleum: cleansers,clothes,food, lungs, rain- bloodshed.

Rumsfeld Personally ApprovedTorture
At a news conference last week, Gen. James T. Hill, who oversees the offshore prison at Guantanamo as head of the U.S. Southern Command, said Mr. Rumsfeld gave him the final set of approved interrogation techniques on April 16, 2003. Four of the methods require the defense secretary's approval, he said, and those methods had been used on two prisoners.

'Anyone out there holding - as I gather Prime Minister Blair has recently said - the prospect that ISG is going to unmask actual weapons of mass destruction is really delusional,' said David Kay, who led the Iraq Survey Group after the invasion.

'It is amazing that occasionally they slip back into talking about it. The problem is the unwillingness to take the responsibility of saying a few simple words: "We were wrong".

MAFIA-connected REAGAN into SNUFF FILMS, BEASTIALITY PORN, JELLY BEANS
Reagan had CIA program MKULTRA slaves to different jelly bean colors ... "When you meet the Chief, imagine him with his pants down. He's most comfortable knowing you are imaging him with his pants down." --- Reagan admittedly had seen the How to Divide and Personality and How to Create a Sex Slave videos made in Huntsville, Alabama... .very pleased with me as if I had participated in them willingly. Within the first few minutes of meeting Reagan, he was giving me acting tips to utilize in government operations and pornography!! --- he did not perceive mind control as slavery, but as "an opportunity for those who otherwise would have nothing in life." --- Many commercial and instructional (private) pornography films I and others participated in, referred to as "Uncle Ronnie's Bedtime Stories," — Reagan's Chief Pornographer Michael Dante, AKA Michael Viti... --- ... not certain who instigated the plastic surgery to which I was forcibly subjected, but soon after meeting Reagan and Dante I was scheduled for breast implants in the first commercial porn film Reagan had directed Dante to produce... --- Cheney and Reagan were drinking cognac, this time to excess for so early in the day. Reagan's cheeks were flushed and his voice slurred as he greeted me, "Well, hello, Kitten. Dick and I were just discussing the plight of the Contras... ' --- Reagan was gesturing into the air, apparently lost in the poetry of his own ranting. --- Reagan switched my personality to where I no longer regarded him as "Chief,' but instead as "Uncle Ronnie." He did this by reaching into his Jelly Belly jar and giving me one... colors and flavors triggered programmed responses. --- Reagan looked his role amongst his mobster friends,... --- "Well, Kitten," Reagan said to me, "this is your death sentence: You'll go out in a blaze of glory." I was not surprised to receive confirmation of my imminent death by Reagan... .heard about snuff film death by fire from seemingly everyone involved in establishing "free trade," through Mexico, of our children for drugs.

Iraqis Paying 5 Cents a Gallon for Gas
Iraq can't refine much gasoline, so the U.S. pays $1.50 and trucks it in Although Iraq is a major petroleum producer, the country has little capacity to refine its own gasoline. So the U.S. government pays about $1.50 a gallon to buy fuel in neighboring countries and deliver it to Iraqi stations. A three-month supply costs American taxpayers more than $500 million, not including the cost of military escorts to fend off attacks by Iraqi insurgents.

He said the Americans, who were in consultation with the Saudis, advised them to let the men go. Other Saudi officials have said four Americans who were staying at the hotel had taken refuge on the roof without the knowledge of the gunmen and were rescued a few hours before dawn.

After completing their three years of compulsory military service, a group of infantry soldiers decided Israel needed to know about what they call "the crazy reality" of their experiences in Hebron - a city where about 500 settlers live in three enclaves surrounded by 130,000 Palestinians.

Saca's First Day as President Met with Mass Condemnation in El Salvador
On Tuesday, June 1,Tony Saca was sworn in as the new president of El Salvador. In what sounded like a joke that went from bad to worse, Saca former president of the National Association of Private Business (ANEP) gave a speech applauding economic policies like CAFTA while throwing around the jargon of "human development," "social responsibility", "liberty" and "justice." All of the pomp and circumstance of the inauguration was made possible due to a giant militarized zone that prevented any protestors from getting close enough to deface the carefully crafted image of Saca as a populist president. All told, over 5000 troops and police forces were deployed to "protect" the ceremony from protesters and other would-be terrorists.

1. The whole Bush family and the bin Ladens since the 1970s (vacationed together and invested in oil companies together; invested in Carlyle Corporation--two families with the largest 'bets' on Carlyle Corporation)

2. CIA creations of Taliban; CIA creations of Al-Queda

3. Bush family and the CIA links (duh!), and through that--drug running to the present.

4. here it comes full circle: Al-Queda and Saudis--the very Saudi elements that are damn near lifelong pals of the Bush family. Oops! Interrogation works! It always comes back to THE BUSH FAMILY OF TERROR. You'll see what I mean when you read the scanned page.

The CIA says Mr Pavitt's decision was unconnected with Mr Tenet's departure.

These are the troops that the redneck shitkickers are demanding we all support. Second, these stormtrooper thugs will be returning to run American "law enforcement" for Bush's second term. After having stepped on 20K bodies in Afghanistan and 15K bodies in Iraq, do Americans really think they will distinguish one set of repressed fools from an even bigger set of fools. Seig Heil!
