NY Police Report Bomb to Frame Activist as Terrorist

 

Two persons identifying themselves as New York police officers interrupted a 9/11 Truth demonstration on a public sidewalk in front of the new WTC 7 Building to intimidate free speech, stating “Larry [Silverstein] doesn’t want to hear it,” before accusing We Are Change founder Luke Rudkowski of having a bomb and that his cell phone was “a gun.” [link]

CIA’s Hayden: “50% of the Agency Has Been Hired Since 9/11″

http://cryptome.org/cia041507.htm

Transcript of Interview of CIA Director Michael V. Hayden by C-SPAN’s Brian Lamb, April 15, 2007

LAMB: If the 100,000 figure is right, 16 different agencies that report to the Director of National Intelligence, and if the figure $45 billion is right, if you could have anything you want, how many more people would you want and how much more money would you want to spend?

HAYDEN: I could go through our budget and pick out little niches there, where just a few more dollars – and in our terms, you know, $10 million here or $20 million there – can really make a difference. But by and large, the community as a whole, CIA in particular, has benefited from the resources that the American people – acting through the Congress and the president – the resources the American people have given us since 9/11. Right now, my biggest challenge is absorbing the growth we’ve had inside the agency and putting these new resources to work in an efficient and effective way. And it’s – sure, it has something to do with the money, but it really has to do with people. Let me give you a sense of scale here, Brian. And I have to talk around it a little bit, because the numbers are classified. But let me give you a sense. One-seventh of the Central Intelligence Agency has been hired in the last 12 months. One-fifth of our analysts have been hired in the last 12 months. Fifty percent of the agency has been hired since 9/11.

Bill Moyers: “Buying the War”

Four years ago on May 1, President Bush landed on the aircraft carrier USS Lincoln wearing a flight suit and delivered a speech in front of a giant “Mission Accomplished” banner. He was hailed by media stars as a “breathtaking” example of presidential leadership in toppling Saddam Hussein. Despite profound questions over the failure to locate weapons of mass destruction and the increasing violence in Baghdad, many in the press confirmed the White House’s claim that the war was won. MSNBC’s Chris Matthews declared, “We’re all neo-cons now;” NPR’s Bob Edwards said, “The war in Iraq is essentially over;” and Fortune magazine’s Jeff Birnbaum said, “It is amazing how thorough the victory in Iraq really was in the broadest context.”

How did the mainstream press get it so wrong? How did the evidence disputing the existence of weapons of mass destruction and the link between Saddam Hussein to 9-11 continue to go largely unreported? “What the conservative media did was easy to fathom; they had been cheerleaders for the White House from the beginning and were simply continuing to rally the public behind the President — no questions asked. How mainstream journalists suspended skepticism and scrutiny remains an issue of significance that the media has not satisfactorily explored,” says Moyers. “How the administration marketed the war to the American people has been well covered, but critical questions remain: How and why did the press buy it, and what does it say about the role of journalists in helping the public sort out fact from propaganda?”

On Wednesday, April 25 at 9 p.m. on PBS, a new PBS series BILL MOYERS JOURNAL premieres at a special time with “Buying the War,” a 90-minute documentary that explores the role of the press in the lead-up to the invasion of Iraq.

Tyson Slocum: Big Oil, Hot Profits & Global Warming

Tyson Slocum, Director of the Energy Program at Public Citizen (http://citizen.org), joined Joe Broadhurst of CKUT Radio to discuss his report, “Hot Profits & Global Warming: How Oil Companies Hurt Consumers and the Environment”.

The Five largest oil companies in the world have a combined profit of over $440 Billion since 2001. Mr. Slocum discusses where those profits are going, the mergers which have allowed them still maintain access to Billions in govt subsidies and a first-hand account of the environmental destruction taking place in the Tar Sands in Alberta, Canada.

John Kerry: WTC Building 7 Was Controlled Demolition

“Questioned on WTC 7 by members of Austin 9/11 Truth Now at a Book People event in Austin Texas, Kerry responded, “I do know that that wall, I remember, was in danger and I think they made the decision based on the danger that it had in destroying other things, that they did it in a controlled fashion.”

Kerry is basically saying that the building was intentionally demolished to prevent a random collapse from damaging nearby buildings, but that premise has never been explicitly admitted, with officials clinging to the notion that the collapse was expected but was not aided by means of explosive charges, because to admit to a controlled demolition would be to expose foreknowledge of 9/11 itself.” [link]

Honduras is rich in silver and gold. So why is this Central American republic plagued by such desperate poverty?

Roman Catholic Church officials in Honduras believe foreign mining concerns like Canada’s Goldcorp Inc. bear much of the blame. They want these companies out of their country – now.

March for Kyoto to mark Earth Day

International Earth Day will be celebrated Sunday in Montreal by a march condemning what environmental groups see as the federal government’s inaction over the Kyoto Protocol.

The march is to start at 1:30 p.m. at Lafontaine Park and make its way to Mount Royal Park.

The Coalition Quebec Vert Kyoto, a collection of environmental advocates, and other groups announced the rally yesterday. The group says its goal is to make the Conservative government honour Canada’s obligations under the treaty, designed to combat climate change.

“We want people to go into the streets to send a message to the government of Canada: You must act now,” said Jocelyn Higginson of Greenpeace Quebec.

In February, Environment Minister John Baird said adhering to Kyoto would result in “economic collapse.” [link]

Quebec City Ends Water Fluoridation Program
