FBI Prevents Agents from Telling ‘Truth’ About 9/11 on PBS
October 2nd, 2008You can almost guess the wording on the memo, after these J Edgars stumbled onto something they weren’t meant to see. Blah, blah, national security assets. Blah, blah, active intelligence operation. Blah, nothing to see here. Ignore. Blah, blah. The same memos have been sent to the DEA for decades. Via: CQPolitics: The FBI has […]

Few Limits Proposed for Paulson in Aftermath of Economic 9/11
September 22nd, 2008Dems squealing flaccidly, as usual. Via: Wall Street Journal: If the Bush administration has its way, anyone harmed by the Treasury Department’s handling of the $700 billion Wall Street bailout might have no remedy.

What Is Woodward’s ‘Secret Weapon’ in Iraq?
September 13th, 2008The human thermal fingerprint is a pretty strange. I have no idea if that’s it, but look at page 12 of this U.S. Special Operations Command briefing paper on Continuous Clandestine Tagging, Tracking and Locating (CTTL). They want “battery independent” tracking devices that harvest energy from ambient RF fields, movement and wind. Via: Wired: I’m […]
Secret Assassination Program is Key in Iraq, Woodward Says
September 10th, 2008Oh sure, Bob. During the Vietnam War, the Phoenix Program ran from 1967 through the Tet Offensive and until the Americans fled Vietnam.

Barack Obama Assassination Plot?
August 26th, 2008Reminds me of Jane Greenhow and her friends. The feds are already saying hinting that there’s nothing to see here. That’s almost certainly because the feds are involved—in a COINTEL capacity—with this crew. Via: Telegraph: One of the group said he was “going to shoot Obama”, who is in Denver, Colorado, for the Democratic National […]
