Tucker Confirms Geithner Presence at Bilderberg Meeting
Infowars May 14, 2009

Intrepid Bilderberg investigator and reporter Jim Tucker of the American Free Press confirms that U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner will attend this year’s Bilderberg meeting in Athens, Greece. Geithner’s presence will be in violation of the Logan Act, intended to prohibit American citizens without authority from interfering in relations between the United States and foreign governments. Congress established the Logan Act in 1799. The only Logan Act indictment occurred in 1803. It involved a Kentucky newspaper article that argued for the formation in the western United States of a separate nation allied to France. No prosecution followed.Tucker told Alex Jones today that Geithner will attend the secretive meeting to talk about global government. Geithner recently announced while addressing the Council on Foreign Relations that he supported a proposal to replace the dollar as the world’s reserve currency with a composite of currencies that would be managed by the International Monetary Fund.

Geithner, who has overseen Obama’s bailout agenda since taking over from Hank Paulson, is the perfect stooge to implement the global financial regulatory systems that elitists have called for in the aftermath of the financial downturn, writes Paul Joseph Watson today.Geithner’s presence at Bilderberg is noteworthy, not only because Bernanke attended immediately before the economic crisis last year, but also because Bilderberg’s agenda for 2009 is heavily weighted towards the financial crisis.Other U.S. officials will attend the meeting. US Deputy Secretary of State James Steinberg will be the first member of President Barack Obama’s administration to have a meeting with Greek officials in Greece, sources said yesterday, reports Kathimerini, Greece’s international English language newspaper.Steinberg will be in Athens for a meeting of the international invitation-only club, the Bilderberg Group, which begins today and runs until Saturday. Sources said that Steinberg is due to meet with Prime Minister Costas Karamanlis and Foreign Minister Dora Bakoyannis.Whether Lucifer will be down there on the sun-loungers remains to be seen,Roger Boyes and John Carr write sarcastically for the Times Online.But what we have been able to establish from a World Bank spokesman, Alexis O’Brien, is that the organization’s president, Robert Zoellick, will be in Athens on unspecified business on May 14. And that US Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner’s public schedule is mysteriously empty for the next two days.

Robert Zoellick was previously a managing director of Goldman Sachs, United States Deputy Secretary of State, and U.S. Trade Representative. He is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission and attended Bilderberg meetings in 1991, 2003, 2006 and 2007.

Geithner To Take Orders From Global Elite At Bilderberg
Paul Joseph Watson Prison Planet.com Thursday, May 14, 2009

According to a London Times report, U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner will probably be in attendance at this week’s Bilderberg Group meeting, as top globalists meet to plot the financial future of the planet behind closed doors.The Times article notes that US Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner’s public schedule is mysteriously empty for the next two days,speculating that he will be in Vouliagmeni, Greece for the annual elitist confab, following in the footsteps of Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, who attended last year’s conference in Washington DC just months before the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the start of the economic crisis.Geithner, who has overseen Obama’s bailout agenda since taking over from Hank Paulson, is the perfect stooge to implement the global financial regulatory systems that elitists have called for in the aftermath of the financial downturn.Back in March, Geithner publicly stated that there were no plans to move towards a global currency to supplant the dollar, and yet at a private CFR meeting he assured his fellow globalists that he was open to the notion of a new global currency system.

Geithner’s presence at Bilderberg is noteworthy, not only because Bernanke attended immediately before the economic crisis last year, but also because Bilderberg’s agenda for 2009 is heavily weighted towards the financial crisis. According to a pre-meeting booklet handed out to members that was leaked to investigative journalist Daniel Estulin, Bilderberg is divided on whether to put into motion, Either a prolonged, agonizing depression that dooms the world to decades of stagnation, decline and poverty … or an intense-but-shorter depression that paves the way for a new sustainable economic world order, with less sovereignty but more efficiency.The Times also reports that World Bank President Robert Zoellick,Will be in Athens on unspecified business on May 14,meaning it’s almost certain that he too will attend Bilderberg, as numerous past World Bank chiefs have done in previous years.During a speech which preceded this year’s G8 summit, Zoellick openly admitted Bilderberg’s plan to eliminate national sovereignty and impose a global government via the imposition of worldwide financial regulatory powers.Speaking about the agenda to increase not just funding but power for international organizations on the back of the financial crisis, Zoellick stated, If leaders are serious about creating new global responsibilities or governance, let them start by modernising multilateralism to empower the WTO, the IMF, and the World Bank Group to monitor national policies.

To say we were striving for a one-world government is exaggerated, but not wholly unfair,top Bilderberg member Lord Healey once told author Jon Ronson, adding that Bilderberg members thought A single community throughout the world would be a good thing.As we have previously highlighted, the European Union was a creation of Bilderberg founding members, aided by top Nazi economists such as Hermann Abs, Hitler’s top banker and a man described by Bilderberg luminary David Rockefeller as the greatest banker of the 20th century.In addition to Geithner’s probable attendance, US Deputy Secretary of State James Steinberg is using the pretext of an obscure meeting with Greek officials, the first time a member of the Obama administration has done so, to take his place at Bilderberg.According to Greek newspaper Kathimerini, Steinberg will be in Athens for a meeting of the international invitation-only club, the Bilderberg Group, which begins today and runs until Saturday.

Writer Detained For Taking Photo Of Sea View Near Bilderberg Hotel
Steve Watson Infowars.net Thursday, May 14, 2009

The comedian covering the Bilderberg meeting for the London Guardian has been detained by authorities in Athens, Greece after taking a photograph close to the site of the annual elite gathering.Charlie Skelton has also personally contacted the Infowars team to clarify his position and explain why he is approaching the issue from a comic angle.In Skelton’s third article in today’s Guardian, he details an encounter with armed Greek police close to the Astir Palace resort near Athens, during which he was menaced, asked to identify himself and was and eventually detained after photographing the sea view.Again the approach Skelton takes is a comical one, however, he maintains that his detainment was very serious:Over came the man with the machine gun. Over came the man with the special mirror-on-a-stick for car bombs. It was the first time in my life, and hopefully the last, that I’ve been intimidated by a mirror on a stick. They circled round me. One of them, the one in the photo with one hand up and the other on his pistol, kept prodding me in the shoulder, and shouting Give the camera! Just give the camera! All around me: Delete! Delete photos! followed by a lame tug of war for the camera with no great self-belief on either side, which I won.Then it became: Get in the car! Get in the car! I wasn’t about to get in the car. I remember saying: One of you has a machine gun, you’re shouting at me, I don’t understand why, I took one photograph, this all seems a bit strange. What’s going on here? Skelton says he was then taken to the police station and asked to delete his photo, which he refused to do. Eventually the police allowed him to leave.

We covered Mr Skelton’s dispatches in our article yesterday, pointing out that the Guardian’s intention seemed to be to belittle the importance of the meeting by creating a comedy out of it.However, Mr Skelton has since contacted us to explain that he is a fan of Infowars and that this is the only way he could draw any attention to Bilderberg in the mainstream media.Indeed, his latest piece seems to play up the fact that the mainstream media should be covering the event but, as ever, is nowhere to be seen, as this extract demonstrates:And then it struck me: there really ISN’T any fotografia. There’s none. Not a single member of the mainstream press. Not a single newshound camera on a tripod. Nothing. Nothing is happening here. Nothing to report.The limousines have started to arrive. Nothing to report.They’ve closed off an entire peninsula. There are roadblocks. Machine guns. Nothing to report.

This is Bilderberg’s 57th annual meeting. Nothing to report.Susan Boyle plucks eyebrows! Finally, something to report.Mr Skelton has agreed to appear on the Alex Jones show today to further clarify his opinions and discuss his detainment at the hands of Bilderberg.

Haaretz Coverage Of Bilderberg Group Meeting Last update - 18:17 14/05/2009 Are the people who really run the world meeting this weekend? By Adam Abrams

From today until May 17, approximately 150 of the most influential members of the world's elite will be meeting behind closed doors at a hotel in Greece. They are called the Bilderberg Group or the Bilderbergers, and you have probably never heard of them.The group, co-founded by Prince Bernard of the Netherlands, has been meeting in secret every year since 1954. This year, says the British broadsheet The Times, they are meeting at the Nafsika Astir Palace in Vouliagmeni.The individuals at the meeting come from such power houses as Google and the Wall Street Journal, the U.S. Senate and European royalty. Governments, the banking industry, big oil, media and even the world of academia are amongst the Bilderberg ranks.Those reportedly in attendance at last year's conference in Virginia include former U.S. senator Tom Daschle; Secretary of the Treasury Timothy Geithner and his predecessor Henry M. Paulson; former U.S. secretaries of state Henry Kissinger and Condoleezza Rice; Microsoft executive Craig Mundie; senior Wall Street Journal editor Paul Gigot; World Bank President Robert Zoellick and Google CEO Eric Schmidt.There is no official list of who's who in Bilderberg and there are no press conferences about the meetings. This is because the group operates under the Chatham House Rule,and no details of what goes on inside are released to the press.This secrecy has led to many claims that the Bilderberg Group are the world's real kingmakers,and, some even suggest, behind the global financial crisis.

There are also rumors concerning Bilderberg's 2008 conference in Virginia, claiming that the recent U.S. presidential election was decided upon in a secret meeting between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, courtesy of Bilderberg.Those involved in Bilderberg reject such claims outright, arguing that the forum offers a chance for world leaders to discuss international affairs openly and honestly.Former British cabinet minister, Lord Denis Healey, who was one of the founders of the group, branded assumptions of world domination as crap! and said that the group's aims were much purer.In an interview to journalist Jon Ronson of the Guardian, Healey said: "Those of us in Bilderberg felt we couldn't go on forever fighting one another for nothing and killing people and rendering millions homeless. So we felt that a single community throughout the world would be a good thing.Veteran Bilderberg-watcher Daniel Estulin says that the big topic on the agenda for this year is the global depression.Estulin quotes sources connected to the group as saying that the group is looking at two options, either a prolonged, agonizing depression that dooms the world to decades of stagnation, decline, and poverty... or an intense-but-shorter depression that paves the way for a new sustainable economic world order, with less sovereignty but more efficiency.As the BBC's Jonathan Duffy noted in 2004, the air of mystery has fueled the increasingly popular conspiracy theory that the Bilderberg meetings are where decisions affecting the entire world are made.No reporters are invited in and while confidential minutes of meetings are taken, names are not noted, Duffy wrote.In the void created by such aloofness, an extraordinary conspiracy theory has grown up around the group that alleges the fate of the world is largely decided by Bilderberg.Recently, mainstream press coverage of the Bilderberg meeting has grown, largely due to the internet. This year's conference may have been covered by British broadsheets, but don't expect to see any coverage from U.S. news outlets such as The Wall Street Journal or the Washington Post - they will most likely be at the conference.Adam Abrams is a British-American blogger, currently working as an intern at Haaretz.com

Who pulls the strings? (part 3)
guardian.co.uk Saturday March 10, 2001

Bilderberg members continued to ignore my enquiries through the end of 1999 and into 2000. I continued dutifully to write to Bilderbergers, although I held out no hope of a breakthrough. And then, one Tuesday morning, the phone rang. It was the instantly recognisable voice of a Bilderberg founder member, for 30 years one of their inner circle, their steering committee, a Bilderberg agenda setter, a head-hunter - a secret ruler of the world himself, should you choose to believe the assorted militants I had spent the past five years with. It was Denis Healey.How can I help you? he said.Well, I said, would you tell me what happens inside Bilderberg meetings?
Okay,he said, cheerfully.There was a silence.Why? I said. Nobody else will.Because you asked me,he said. Then he added,I'm an old fart. Come on over.Once Lord Healey had agreed to talk to me - and I had circulated this information far and wide - other Bilderberg members became amenable, too (albeit on the condition of anonymity). These interviews enabled me to piece together the backstage mechanics of this most secret society.So this is how it works. A tiny, shoe-string central office in Holland decides each year which country will host the next meeting. Each country has two steering committee members. (The British ones have included Lord Carrington, Denis Healey, Andrew Knight, the one-time editor of The Economist magazine, and Martin Taylor, the ex-CEO of Barclays Bank.)

They say that each country dreads their turn coming around, for they have to raise enough money to book an entire five-star hotel for four days (plus meals and transport and vast security - every packet of peas is opened and scrutinised, and so on). They call up Bilderberg-friendly global corporations, such as Xerox or Heinz or Fiat or Barclays or Nokia, which donate the hundreds of thousands of pounds needed. They do not accept unsolicited donations from non-Bilderberg corporations.Nobody can buy their way into a Bilderberg meeting, although many corporations have tried. Then they decide who to invite - who seems to be a Bilderberg person. The notion of a Bilderberg person hasn't changed since the earliest days, back in 1954, when the group was created by Denis Healey, Joseph Retinger, David Rockefeller and Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands (a former SS officer while he was a student - ironic that a former Nazi, albeit a low-ranking and half-hearted one, would help give birth to an organisation that so many would consider to be evidence of a Jewish conspiracy).

First off,said a steering committee member to me,the invited guests must sing for their supper. They can't just sit there like church mice. They are there to speak. I remember when I invited Margaret Thatcher back in 75. She wasn't worldly. Well, she sat there for the first two days and didn't say a thing. People started grumbling. A senator came up to me on the Friday night, Senator Mathias of Maryland. He said, This lady you invited, she hasn't said a word. You really ought to say something to her. So I had a quiet word with her at dinner. She was embarrassed. Well, she obviously thought about it overnight, because the next day she suddenly stood up and launched into a three-minute Thatcher special. I can't remember the topic, but you can imagine. The room was stunned. Here's something for your conspiracy theorists. As a result of that speech, David Rockefeller and Henry Kissinger and the other Americans fell in love with her. They brought her over to America, took her around in limousines, and introduced her to everyone.I remember when Clinton came in 91, he added. Vernon Jordan invited him along. He used it as a one-stop-shop. He went around glad-handing everyone. Nobody thought they were meeting the next president.(Of course, Jim Tucker would contend that they all knew they were meeting the next president - for they huddled together that weekend and decided he would be the next president.) At times, I become nostalgic for when I knew nothing. There are so few mysteries left, and here I am, I presume, relegating Bilderberg to the dingy world of the known. The invited guests are not allowed to bring their wives, girlfriends or - on rarer occasions - their husbands or boyfriends. Their security officers cannot attend the conference and must have dinner in a separate hall. The guests are expressly asked not to give interviews to journalists. Rooms, refreshments, wine and cocktails before dinner are paid for by Bilderberg. Telephone, room service and laundry bills are paid for by the participants. There are two morning sessions and two afternoon sessions, except on the Saturday, when the sessions take place only in the evening so that the Bilderbergers can play golf. The seating plan is in alphabetical order. It is reversed each year. One year Umberto Agnelli, the chairman of Fiat, will sit at the front. The next year, Norbert Zimmermann, chairman of Berndorf, the Austrian cutlery and metalware manufacturer, will take his place. While furiously denying that they secretly ruled the world, my Bilderberg interviewees did admit to me that international affairs had, from time to time, been influenced by these sessions.I asked for examples, and I was given one: During the Falklands war, the British government's request for international sanctions against Argentina fell on stony ground. But at a Bilderberg meeting in, I think, Denmark, David Owen stood up and gave the most fiery speech in favour of imposing them. Well, the speech changed a lot of minds. I'm sure that various foreign ministers went back to their respective countries and told their leaders what David Owen had said. And you know what? Sanctions were imposed.The man who told me this story added,I hope that gives you a flavour of what really does go on in Bilderberg meetings.

This is how Denis Healey described a Bilderberg person to me: To say we were striving for a one-world government is exaggerated, but not wholly unfair. Those of us in Bilderberg felt we couldn't go on forever fighting one another for nothing and killing people and rendering millions homeless. So we felt that a single community throughout the world would be a good thing.He said, Bilderberg is a way of bringing together politicians, industrialists, financiers and journalists. Politics should involve people who aren't politicians. We make a point of getting along younger politicians who are obviously rising, to bring them together with financiers and industrialists who offer them wise words. It increases the chance of having a sensible global policy.Does going help your career? I asked.Oh yes, he said. Then he added,Your new understanding of the world will certainly help your career.Which sounds like a conspiracy,I said.Crap! said Denis Healey. Idiocy! Crap! I've never heard such crap! That isn't a conspiracy! That is the world. It is the way things are done. And quite rightly so.He added, "But I will tell you this. If extremists and leaders of militant groups believe that Bilderberg is out to do them down, then they're right. We are. We are against Islamic fundamentalism, for instance, because it's against democracy.

Isn't Bilderberg's secrecy against democracy, too? I asked.

We aren't secret,he snapped.We're private. Nobody is going to speak freely if they're going to be quoted by ambitious and prurient journalists like you who think it'll help your career to attack something that you have no knowledge of. I noticed a collection of photo albums on his mantelpiece. Denis Healey has always been a keen amateur photographer, so I asked him if he'd ever taken any pictures inside Bilderberg.Oh yes, he said. Lots and lots of photographs. I eyed the albums. Actually seeing the pictures, seeing the set-up, the faces, the mood - that would be something.

Could I have a look at them? I asked him. Lord Healey looked down at his lap. He thought about my request. He looked up again.No, he said.F--- o--. Jon Ronson, 2001.

The approaching 2009 hurricane season Steve Lyons – Wed May 13, 6:05 pm ET

As we prepare for the upcoming 2009 Pacific and Atlantic Hurricane Season, here is selection of blogs written by our own hurricane and wave expert, Dr. Steve Lyons.

2009 Hurricane Season Forecasts: TWC hurricane and wave expert, Dr. Steve Lyons, provides us with a perspective on the early forecasts for 2009 and how one might interpret them. -- If I could tell you with 100% certainty a hurricane will strike your coast on September 10, 2009, would you do anything between now and then? Obviously no one can make such a forecast with any skill. So you should be ready, ready just as well every year for a potential hurricane strike. Eventually one will come to your coast, it could be in 2009 or it may be 100 years from now, but the potential for great disaster requires you to be ready just like when you put on your car seat belt each time you start your car, never expecting to get in a crash.

2009 listing of Atlantic basin storm names. They are maintained and updated by an international committee of the World Meteorological Organization. Six lists are used in rotation. The only time that there is a change in the list is if a storm is so deadly or costly that the future use of its name on a different storm would be inappropriate for reasons of sensitivity.Five Toes of the Hurricane Footprint: Dr. Lyons writes about his frustration pertaining to the limitations of the Saffir-Simpson scale.What seems to be confusing everyone these days is that many news groups portray the damage footprint using only the Saffir/Simpson hurricane category, probably because it is simple and all broadcasters can talk about a number from 1 to 5, and probably because they do not have models to forecast each toe of the hurricane land footprint. It turns out that hurricane rainfall, hurricane coastal wave heights, hurricane related tornadoes, and hurricane WATER RISE are each very poorly related to the Saffir/Simpson scale and to each other. The Saffir/Simpson scale was originally intended to be a wind damage scale and nothing more!

Hurricane Rainfall Patterns (Part 1): Rainfall patterns (intensity and longevity) associated with tropical cyclones over land is a difficult forecast for the meteorologist. Dr. Lyons explains the complexities.One of the most difficult tropical cyclone (tropical depression, tropical storm or hurricane) land impacts to forecast accurately is its rainfall. Because rain is highly variable in space and its patterns constantly change through time, forecasting where rain will fall, how fast it will fall, how much will fall and who will get flooded are very difficult forecasts indeed!

Preoccupation with Hurricane Maximum Winds: To sum up Dr. Lyons' frustrations with the Saffir-Simpson scale, he couldn't place his feelings in just one blog. When you listen to Dr. Lyons and his argument(s), you realize it's a no-brainer that we need more than just the SS scale when trying to classify hurricanes.I write this blog partly in frustration of seeing people (often through media reports) being preoccupied with a hurricane's maximum winds. Now don't get me wrong maximum winds are important for impacts at the immediate coastline, but they alone cannot be used to paint a clear picture of what coastal and inland impacts will be. Impacts include wind, waves, water rise and rainfall with a few tornadoes possibly mixed in! Maximum wind is directly responsible for wind damage the other impacts are more complex and some have little to do with landfall intensity. This is where the problem lies; people very often take action or are asked to take action based on that Saffir-Simpson scale classification for a specific hurricane.What Causes Hurricane Surge on the Coast?: It's one of more (if not the most) dangerous aspect of landfalling hurricanes. Dr. Lyons delves into the topic and answers some frequently asked questions concerning surge.I know you have all heard of storm surge, the term used to describe some of the water rise on the coast from a tropical storm or hurricane. Here I will call it surge because most of the time it is worst for hurricanes, not storms. So what in the world causes the water to rise on the coast, what factors control how high the surge gets and why does surge height vary from one location to another for an identical hurricane? I will try to answer these questions.Continue reading What Causes Hurricane Surge on the Coast?

Severe storms kill 1 in northeastern Missouri MAY 13,09

KIRKSVILLE, Mo. – Officials say one person is dead after severe storms, including a tornado, raked northeastern Missouri.State Emergency Management Agency Susie Stonner (STOH'-ner) says she had no details on the fatality in Adair County on Wednesday evening. Stonner says there are reports of injuries in the Kirksville-Novinger (NAH'-vin-jer) area, but she had no details.Stonner says the storm left several people trapped in basements.The National Weather Service reported at least a dozen homes damaged or destroyed in the Kirksville area. An auto dealership in Kirksville sustained significant damage.U.S. 63 also was closed in the Kirksville area because of a gas line leak and downed power lines.

H1N1 Virus: Manufactured or Result of Human Error?
Kurt Nimmo Infowars May 13, 2009
Links http://www.infowars.com/h1n1-virus-manufactured-or-result-of-human-error/

Bloomberg reports that the World Health Organization is investigating a claim by an Australian researcher that the swine flu virus may have been created as a result of human error.Australian researcher Adrian Gibbs (r) suggests the H1N1 virus accidentally evolved in eggs scientists use to grow viruses and drugmakers use to make vaccines.In an interview, Adrian Gibbs, who collaborated on research that led to the development of Roche Holding AG’s Tamiflu drug, said he will publish a report suggesting the new strain may have accidentally evolved in eggs scientists use to grow viruses and drugmakers use to make vaccines. One of the simplest explanations is that it’s a laboratory escape,Gibbs told Bloomberg.But there are lots of others.Last month, according to investigative journalist Wayne Madsen, a top scientist at the United Nations, who has examined the outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus in Africa, as well as HIV/AIDS victims, concluded that H1N1 possesses certain transmission vectors that suggest that the new flu strain has been genetically-manufactured as a military biological warfare weapon.Madsen’s United Nations source and another in Indonesia are convinced that the current outbreak of a new strain of swine flu in Mexico and some parts of the United States is the result of the introduction of a human-engineered pathogen that could result in a widespread global pandemic, with potentially catastrophic consequences for domestic and international travel and commerce.The source in Jakarta, Indonesia, said WHO officials are afraid that the presence of gene segments from the H5N1 bird flu in the A-H1N1 swine flu strain could mean that the new swine flu strain was engineered to jump species.Gibbs’ speculation that the H1N1 virus was a mistake that occurred at a vaccine production facility is reminiscent of the Baxter scandal. In February, the pharmaceutical company Baxter International sent vaccine material contaminated with H3N2 flu viruses to 18 countries. The contaminated product, which Baxter calls experimental virus material,was made at a research facility in Orth-Donau, Austria.

Critics have suggested that Baxter intentionally contaminated the experimental vaccine materials in order to provoke a pandemic. Baxter has worked with governments around the world to develop and produce vaccines to protect against infectious disease or potential threats from bioterrorism. After 9/11 Baxter helped supply stockpiles of a smallpox vaccine and in 2003 the company was contracted to develop a vaccine to combat the SARS virus. In 2006 the UK Government announced plans designed to inoculate every person in the country with Baxter’s vaccines in the event of a flu pandemic,Steve Watson wrote on April 27.On May 7, Baxter confirmed that it received a strain of the swine flu virus and was taking all of the appropriate steps necessary to prepare for a large scale vaccine production,according to the Chicago Tribune.

Adrian Gibbs also believes the virus could have jumped from a pig to another mammal or a bird before reaching humans. Other scientists, however, believe this is extremely unlikely. The virus is made up of components from the human flu virus, avian flu virus, and swine flu virus, a combination not possible in the natural world. There are no cases of swine being infected with the H1N1 virus. This strain of swine influenza that’s been cultured in a laboratory is something that’s not been seen anywhere actually in the United States and the world, so this is actually a new strain of influenza that’s been identified,Dr. John Carlo, Dallas Co. Medical Director, said last month.

Tamiflu Developer: Swine Flu May Have Been Released From A Lab ,First scientist to study genetic makeup of virus says it may have escaped from a vaccine production facility Paul Joseph Watson Prison Planet.com Wednesday, May 13, 2009

One of the first scientists to properly analyze the genetic makeup of the so-called swine flu virus that emerged three weeks ago in Mexico and led to fears of a global pandemic states that the virus may have escaped from a laboratory.Adrian Gibbs, 75, who collaborated on research that led to the development of Roche Holding AG’s Tamiflu drug, said in an interview that he intends to publish a report suggesting the new strain may have accidentally evolved in eggs scientists use to grow viruses and drugmakers use to make vaccines,reports Bloomberg News.The World Health Organization received Gibbs’ report study last weekend and is now in the process of analyzing it.

One of the simplest explanations is that it’s a laboratory escape, said Gibbs, who has studied germ evolution for four decades, adding that the virus could have been released accidentally from a virus production facility.In addition, Gibbs said his research found the rate of genetic mutation in the new virus was about three times faster than that of the most closely related viruses found in pigs, suggesting it evolved outside of swine,states the report.The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta were quick to deny Gibbs’ report, saying they found no evidence to verify his conclusions.In our reports immediately following the swine flu outbreak, we speculated that the virus may have been created in a lab due to its highly synthetic nature, being a combination of several never-before-seen intercontinental human, avian and pig viruses from America, Europe and Asia.As we reported in March, Baxter International, the same company chosen to make the swine flu vaccine, were caught distributing vaccines to 18 different labs in Europe that were tainted with the deadly avian flu virus.Czech newspapers questioned whether the release was part of a deliberate conspiracy to provoke a pandemic.In 2006 it was revealed that Bayer Corporation had discovered that their injection drug, which was used by hemophiliacs, was contaminated with the HIV virus. Internal documents prove that after they positively knew that the drug was contaminated, they took it off the U.S. market only to dump it on the European, Asian and Latin American markets, knowingly exposing thousands, most of them children, to the live HIV virus. Government officials in France went to prison for allowing the drug to be distributed. The documents show that the FDA colluded with Bayer to cover-up the scandal and allowed the deadly drug to be distributed globally. No Bayer executives ever faced arrest or prosecution in the United States.In the UK, a 2007 outbreak of foot and mouth disease that put Britain on high alert has been originated from a government laboratory which is shared with an American pharmaceutical company, mirroring the deadly outbreak of 2001, which was also deliberately released.

NEWS ANALYSIS Pope in Bethlehem: A missed opportunity,Aaron Klein argues Benedict overlooked murder, persecution of Christians May 13, 2009 2:34 pm Eastern
By Aaron Klein 2009 WorldNetDaily

During Pope Benedict XVI's visit to Bethlehem today, the pontiff did not address rampant Muslim persecution of Christians and stood by as Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas lied about the real reason behind local Christians fleeing. In a major address, the pontiff strongly supported a Palestinian state. Perhaps he does not realize recent history demonstrates such a state may lead to increased persecution and endangerment of Palestinian Christians. Mr. President, the Holy See supports the right of your people to a sovereign Palestinian homeland in the land of your forefathers, secure and at peace with its neighbors, within internationally recognized borders,Benedict said upon his arrival in Bethlehem, standing alongside Abbas.In Bethlehem, where the Christian population has dropped from a majority to less than 20 percent, Benedict delivered a special message of solidarity to the 1.4 million Palestinians isolated in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip. My heart goes out to the pilgrims from war-torn Gaza: I ask you to bring back to your families and your communities my warm embrace, and my sorrow for the loss, the hardship and the suffering you have had to endure,the pope said in his address at an open-air Mass in Manger Square.Please be assured of my solidarity with you in the immense work of rebuilding which now lies ahead, and my prayers that the embargo will soon be lifted, he added.By referencing the war-torn Gaza and necessary rebuilding,the pope was apparently fingering Israel's recent 22-day confrontation with Hamas as the cause for the suffering Gazans had to endure.He said nothing, however, of the suffering of Gaza's 3,000 Christians since Hamas took over that territory in 2007. Benedict might well have decried the many bombings, shootings and other Islamist attacks against Gazan Christian establishments, the brutal murder of the territory's only Bible-store owner, or the regular intimidation and persecution of Christians there. His solidarity with Gazan Christians might have given them some much-needed strength.

Benedict, speaking from Bethlehem – the site of rampant Muslim persecution of Christians – did not once renounce the Islamic violence there, either. Instead, the pope stood beside Abbas as the Palestinian leader deceptively pointed to a concrete separation barrier in Bethlehem and blamed that barrier, as well as Israeli occupation,for the plight of Christians. In this Holy Land, the occupation still continues building separation walls,Abbas said.Instead of building the bridge that can link us, they are using the force of occupation to force Muslims and Christians to emigrate.It should be respectfully pointed out to the pope that Abbas was dangerously fabricating history. Actually, it was Abbas' own Fatah party that is causing Christians to flee. First, about the wall.Bethlehem is not surrounded by any wall. Israel built a fence, in 2002, in the area where northern Bethlehem interfaces with Jerusalem. A tiny segment of that barrier, facing a major Israeli roadway, is a concrete wall that Israel says is meant to prevent gunmen from shooting at Israeli motorists. The fence was constructed after the outbreak of the Palestinian intifada, or terror war, launched after the late PLO leader Yasser Arafat turned down an Israeli offer of a Palestinian state, instead returning to the Middle East to liberate Palestine with violence. Scores of deadly suicide bombings and shooting attacks against Israelis were planned in Bethlehem and carried out by Bethlehem-area terrorists, including Abbas' Fatah organization. At one point during the period of just 30 days in 2002, at least 14 shootings were perpetuated by Bethlehem cells of Fatah's Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades terrorists, killing two Israelis and wounding six.

Many times Muslim gunmen in the Bethlehem area reportedly took positions in civilian homes in the hilltops of Christian Beit Jala, which straddles Bethlehem. Beit Jala afforded the terrorists a clear firing line at southern sections of Jerusalem and at a major Israeli highway down below, drawing Israeli military raids and the eventual building of the security barrier there. Is this barrier causing Bethlehem's Christians to flee, as Abbas claimed today? Simple demographic facts will answer this question. Israel built the barrier five years ago. But Bethlehem's Christian population started to drastically decline in 1995, the very year Arafat's Palestinian Authority took over the holy Christian city in line with the U.S.-backed Oslo Accords.Bethlehem consisted of upwards of 80 percent Christians when Israel was founded in 1948, but since Arafat got his hands on it, the city's Christian population dove to its current 23 percent. And that statistic is considered generous since it includes the satellite towns of Beit Sahour and Beit Jala. Some estimates place Bethlehem's actual Christian population as low as 12 percent, with hundreds of Christians leaving every year.As soon as he took over Bethlehem, Arafat unilaterally fired the city's Christian politicians and replaced them with Muslim cronies. He appointed a Muslim governor, Muhammed Rashad A-Jabar and unilaterally disbanded Bethlehem's city council, which had nine Christians and two Muslims, reducing the number of Christians councilors to a 50-50 split. Arafat then converted a Greek Orthodox monastery next to the Church of Nativity, the believed birthplace of Jesus, into his official Bethlehem residence.Suddenly, after the Palestinians gained the territory, reports of Christian intimidation by Muslims began to surface, reports the pope would do well to note since they may foreshadow what is to come under a Palestinian state.Christian leaders and residents in Bethlehem told me they face an atmosphere of regular hostility. They said Palestinian armed groups stir tension by holding militant demonstrations and marches in the streets. They spoke of instances in which Christian shopkeepers' stores were ransacked and Christian homes attacked.

In the past, they said, Palestinian gunmen fired at Israelis from Christian hilltop communities, drawing Israeli anti-terror raids to their towns. In 2002, dozens of terrorists holed up inside the Church of the Nativity for 39 days while fleeing a massive Israeli anti-terror operation. Israel surrounded the church area, but refused to storm the structure. Gunmen inside included wanted senior Hamas, Tanzim and Brigades terrorists reportedly involved in suicide bombings and shooting attacks. More than 200 nuns and priests were trapped in the church after Israeli hostage negotiators failed to secure their release.Some Christian leaders said one of the most significant problems facing Christians in Bethlehem is the rampant confiscation of land by Muslim gangs.There are many cases where Christians have their land stolen by the [Muslim] mafia, said Samir Qumsiyeh, a Bethlehem Christian leader and owner of the Beit Sahour-based private Al-Mahd (Nativity) TV station. It is a regular phenomenon in Bethlehem. They go to a poor Christian person with a forged power of attorney document, then they say we have papers proving you're living on our land. If you confront them, many times the Christian is beaten. You can't do anything about it. The Christian loses, and he runs away,Qumsiyeh told me, speaking from his hilltop television station during an interview last year. Qumsiyeh himself said he was targeted by Islamic gangs, his home firebombed after he returned from a trip abroad during which he gave public speeches outlining the plight of Bethlehem's Christian population.One Christian Bethlehem resident told me her friend recently fled Bethlehem after being accused by Muslims of selling property to Jews, a crime punishable by death in some Palestinian cities. A good deal of the intimidation, she added, comes from gunmen associated with PA President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah organization.A February Jerusalem Post article cited the case of Faud and Georgette Lama, Christian residents of Bethlehem who said their land was stolen by local Muslims, but that when they tried to do something about it, Faud was beaten by gunmen.One religious novelty-store owner I met recently told me Muslim gangs regularly deface Christian property.We are harassed, but you wouldn't know the truth. No one says anything publicly about the Muslims. This is why Christians are running away.Meanwhile, Benedict's call for a Palestinian state would bring complete PA control over more territory in which Christians reside. Thus, his call, if implemented, may well result in even more Christian deaths, persecution and intimidation.

In Bethlehem, Pope calls for Palestinian state By VICTOR L. SIMPSON, Associated Press Writer - Wed May 13, 5:43 pm ET

BETHLEHEM, West Bank – Pope Benedict XVI made a powerful plea Wednesday for a Palestinian state, mixing prayer and politics at Jesus' birthplace and expressing solidarity at a refugee camp with all the homeless Palestinians who long to be able to return to their birthplace.At the Aida refugee camp, the pope spoke in the shadow of the massive concrete barrier that divides Israelis and Palestinians and urged both sides to resist the urge for revenge and find the courage needed for peace.The high-profile visit provided a forum for Palestinians to vent their rage over the Israeli occupation, and Benedict said he understood their frustration.But he urged young people in particular to have the courage to resist any temptation to resort to acts of violence or terrorism,his first mention of terrorism since he began his Middle East tour last Friday.At each stop during his 10-hour stay in the West Bank, Benedict said much of what the Palestinians were hoping to hear, including giving assurances of his deep compassion and remembrance in prayer for those killed by the Israeli offensive in Gaza.Arriving in Bethlehem from nearby Jerusalem, Benedict, 82, was driven through a gate in the 25-foot-high concrete wall, part of the separation barrier Israel has erected along the West Bank and calls key to its security.Our pope is our hope read posters hung around the town, also dotted with yellow and cream flags of the Vatican and red, black, white and green Palestinian flags.At the nearby Aida refugee camp, the pope said the looming barbed wire and concrete structure served as a stark reminder of the tense situation.The refugee camp, where about 5,000 Palestinians live, is next to the towering wall, and residents had wanted Benedict to speak from a stage next to it to highlight life under Israeli occupation.But the Israeli government ordered a halt to construction of the stage, saying organizers lacked the necessary permits and the site's proximity to the wall posed a security risk.Even if walls can easily be built, we know they don't last forever. They can be demolished,the German-born pontiff told the crowd.First of all, however, it is necessary to remove the walls that we build around our hearts,he said.Israel constructed the barrier to keep out Palestinian attackers, but Palestinians object because it cuts them off from Jerusalem and juts into their land.

Benedict regretted the reality that led to its construction.

In a world where more and more borders are being opened up ... it is tragic to see walls still being erected, he said.How earnestly we pray for an end to the hostilities that have caused this wall to be built.Referring to the pope's remarks, Israeli government spokesman Mark Regev said: We did not want to build a security barrier. We were forced to by the continuous infiltration of suicide bombers entering our country and murdering our people. We wish the reality were different.At the refugee camp, a group of Palestinian children in traditional dress danced for the pope, first to the notes of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony and then to an upbeat song in Arabic, as scenes of the West Bank played on huge screens behind them.Some of the children held oversized black keys — a symbol associated with the homes refugees left behind during the two-year war that followed Israel's creation in 1948. One of the most sensitive issues in Israel-Palestinian negotiations has been the demand that Palestinians be allowed to return to property in what is now Israel. The pope finessed the Palestinian demand that they be allowed to take back abandoned property in Israel, expressing solidarity with all the homeless Palestinians who long to be able to return to their birthplace, or to live permanently in a homeland of their own.Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians still live in refugee camps six decades after they lost their homes in what is now Israel. Earlier, the pope received a red carpet welcome to Bethlehem from Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who denounced Israeli occupation policies, singling out what he labeled the apartheid wall.A year of U.S.-backed peace talks that started in November 2007 yielded no discernible results, and Israel's new leader, Benjamin Netanyahu, has criticized the format of the negotiations.At the refugee camp, Benedict said, It is understandable that Palestinians feel frustrated,adding that their legitimate aspirations for permanent homes, for an independent Palestinian state, remain unfilled.In his homily in Manger Square, packed with 10,000 people on a mild, sunny day in front of the Church of the Nativity, Benedict urged Palestinians to keep alive the flame of hope for a sovereign Palestinian homeland in the land of your forefathers, secure and at peace with its neighbors, within internationally recognized borders.He upgraded the reference to state in another appearance.

The Vatican has long supported a Palestinian state — expressed by Pope John Paul II in the same Manger Square during his historic Holy Land pilgrimage nine years ago — but Netanyahu's reluctance to endorse the concept has thrown peace efforts into doubt. Benedict also delivered a special message of solidarity to the 1.4 million Palestinians isolated in Hamas-ruled Gaza, saying: In a special way, my heart goes out to the pilgrims from war-torn Gaza.He later met with a small group of Christians who got permits to cross Israel from Gaza to reach Bethlehem in the West Bank. He has no plans to visit Gaza.Earlier this year, Israel waged a three-week war against Gaza militants that killed more than 1,150 people and badly damaged thousands of homes. The war compounded suffering from an Israeli and Egyptian blockade of Gaza's borders, imposed after Hamas wrested control of Gaza two years ago. Benedict also met with families of two Palestinian prisoners held by the Israelis, one Christian and the other Muslim, the Vatican spokesman said, explaining it followed a meeting Benedict had with the family of a captured Israeli soldier. Christians are a tiny minority among the 3.9 million Palestinians who live in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. In a trend seen throughout the Middle East, their numbers have dwindled as Palestinians weary of occupation seek out new opportunities abroad. When he comes and visits us, it gives us moral and material support,said Ramzi Shomali, a 27-year-old electric company worker. It motivates us to stay in our land.The pontiff brought several gifts to Bethlehem, including a ventilator for a children's hospital and a mosaic representation of the birth of Jesus. He received a handwritten Gospel of Luke. Associated Press writers Diaa Hadid, Dalia Nammari, Ben Hubbard and Mohammed Daraghmeh contributed to this report.

Boy Scouts Train to Become Homeland Gestapo
Kurt Nimmo Infowars May 14, 2009

Once upon a time the Boy Scouts were about camping, backpacking, and canoeing. Boy Scouts were into high adventure and sporting activities. Scouts were about preventing forest fires and Do a Good Turn Daily.Scouts worked with the Salvation Army and the Red Cross. They cherished ideals such as the Cub Scout Promise and the Law of the Pack.Now the Boy Scouts have a new mission — fighting terrorism, rounding up illegal aliens, search and destroying marijuana fields, and embracing the SWAT mentality. The Explorers program, a coeducational affiliate of the Boy Scouts of America that began 60 years ago, is training thousands of young people in skills used to confront terrorism, illegal immigration and escalating border violence — an intense ratcheting up of one of the group’s longtime missions to prepare youths for more traditional jobs as police officers and firefighters,reports the New York Times.Homeland Security and the FBI are behind the effort to indoctrinate and train the Boy Scouts to become tomorrow’s Gestapo. Our end goal is to create more agents,April McKee, a senior Border Patrol agent, told the New York Times. Before it was more about the basics, said Johnny Longoria, a Border Patrol agent. But now our emphasis is on terrorism, illegal entry, drugs and human smuggling.

Just as there are soccer moms, there are Explorers dads, who attend the competitions, man the hamburger grill and donate their land for the simulated marijuana field raids. In their training, the would-be law-enforcement officers do not mess around, as revealed at a recent competition on the state fairgrounds here, where a Ferris wheel sat next to the police cars set up for a felony investigation,Jennifer Steinhauer writes for the Times. Scouts are trained to identify the enemy. In a competition in Arizona, one role-player wore traditional Arab dress. If we’re looking at 9/11 and what a Middle Eastern terrorist would be like,said A. J. Lowenthal, a sheriff’s deputy in Imperial County, California, then maybe your role-player would look like that. I don’t know, would you call that politically incorrect? Politically correct or not, Homeland Security and the FBI realize Arabs are not the enemy —rightwing extremists are.

Last month, Infowars reported on a document produced by the Department of Homeland Security’s National Infrastructure Coordinating Center identifying advocates of the Second Amendment, veterans, pro-life activists, and militia members as dangerous terrorists. A subsequent DHS document, entitled Domestic Extremism Lexicon, pinpointed antigovernment types rejecting federal authority in favor of state or local authority as possible terrorists.Islamic groups are specifically excluded from this document,writes Benjamin Sarlin for the Daily Beast. The new Gestapo Boy Scouts program will train the new Hitler Youth — or Obama youth — for the challenges of a totalitarian globalist future. As the planned implosion of the economy unfolds and unemployment increases, the federal government is picking up the slack.In the wake of the huge stimulus package to jumpstart the economy, plenty of new positions are being created by 2010. The agencies that will benefit include the Defense, Commerce, Homeland Security and Veterans Affairs departments,writes Judi Hasson for Fierce Government.Gestapo Scouts will be required to combat rightwing extremists(THATS CHRISTIANS INCLUDED FOLKS,GET READY)who will refuse to turn in their firearms after the next false flag terror attack or engineered pandemic. SWAT Scouts will be called to deal with those who refuse to participate in mandatory vaccinations. Police state Scouts will be the vanguard for Obama’s million-man Civilian National Security Corps. just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded as the military. It’s up to the New York Times, as the premier liberal propaganda outfit, to sell the militarization of the Boy Scouts to the American people, using the standard bugaboos of Arab terrorists, drug cartel thugs, and marijuana cultivators as the example of why all of this is necessary.In the real world, however, government is not primarily concerned with drug dealers — after all, the government and Wall Street run most of the drugs — they are worried about growing opposition to the destruction of the Constitution and the imposition of world government by a cabal of international bankers and their corporate fascist partners in crime.

17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

EZEKIEL 7:19
19 They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.

EU Policies Deepen Jobs Crisis oneworld Us – Wed May 13, 6:48 pm ET

WASHINGTON, May 13 (OneWorld.net) - European free trade policies will continue to drive up job losses in the European Union and worldwide, said a British social justice group following an European Union summit to address the economic crisis' impact on employment.While politicians continue to promote free trade policies as a solution to the current economic crisis, the advocacy group War on Want argues trade liberalization has and will continue to put millions of people in both rich and poor countries out of work. For decades, the EU has consistently pursued trade policies that have caused mass unemployment around the world and led us to financial meltdown, said Dave Tucker, trade campaign officer at War on Want. Now European workers are feeling the impact of these free trade policies. The EU must wake up and refocus on the needs of European people, not its corporations.A new report by War on Want found that the current free trade model has been responsible for the elimination of tens of millions of jobs worldwide over the last 20 years.We have to preserve free trade and competition, said Swedish Prime Minister Frederick Reinfeldt at the EU conference on unemployment and the financial crisis in Prague. These are very important to our economy.Joblessness in the 27-member bloc is expected to rise by almost 10 percent this year, reports the Chinese news agency Xinhua, noting that the May 7 summit resulted in 10 concrete steps to protect and boost employment amid the global financial crisis.Specifically,the actions [include] plans to keep as [many] people as possible in employment through temporary working hours adjustment, lowering non-wage labor costs, and improving the efficiency of national employment services.

After the two world wars, most of Europe and Japan was economically devastated, while the United States, which suffered less from the crippling effects of the wars, was economically dominant and was under pressure to open up its markets to other countries,writes BBC News in a guide to free trade. Subsequent international treaties beginning with the 1948 General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) began to reduce and abolish import taxes and other barriers to trade. In 1995, GATT was superceded by the World Trade Organization (WTO), which has a membership of 142 countries, with 28 additional nations waiting to join. According to War on Want, this easing of trade restrictions has pushed down prices so [much] that local producers cannot survive, resulting in increasing poverty and unemployment worldwide. Meanwhile, adds the charity, giant multinational companies see their profits rise year after year by taking over new markets and forcing their competitors out of business.There is a democratic alternative to top-down economic globalization,says Global Exchange, a social justice organization promoting more equitable globalization.

French economy minister denies interest in EU competition job
ELITSA VUCHEVA 13.05.2009 @ 17:43 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS – French economy minister Christine Lagarde on Wednesday (13 May) denied she is interested in becoming the EU's next competition commissioner, as reported by a German newspaper.And why not coach of the PSG [Paris Saint-Germain, a French football club],she said in response to a journalist's question on the matter while visiting Puteaux, France, AFP news agency reported.I am trying to do in the best possible way what I have to do within the government as a minister of finance, she added.According to Wednesday's edition of German daily Die Welt, French President Nicolas Sarkozy and European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso struck a deal towards the end of April, under which the 53-year-old French minister would take over the post from the Netherlands' Neelie Kroes in the next European commission, to be set up in the autumn. For her part, Ms Kroes said she would not run for a second mandate.The post is among the most influential in the commission, as the EU's executive arm rules on state aid issues, as well as on antitrust cases involving some of the world's biggest companies.The commission fined US microchip supplier Intel more than a billion euros for hindering competition in the biggest EU antitrust fine in history on the day the Die Welt article appeared.Securing the job for a French person would be a spectacular coup for President Sarkozy, as it would give France a central role in European economic politics,wrote Die Welt, with the country frequently having clashed with the commission over competition issues.Earlier in the day, French EU minister Bruno Le Maire said it was a harebrained hypothesis,while government spokesperson Luc Chatel said: It is not the media that name the EU commissioners, but it is the president of the republic who will choose the French person who will be in charge of representing our country within the next commission.

Ms Lagarde does her [current] job very well,he added.A commission spokesperson qualified the news as one of many speculations and stressed that the issue of the nominations for the next commission is currently not on the agenda.The composition of the next commission will not be known before its president has been agreed – something that will only happen after the 4-7 June European elections.But with Mr Barroso already having the backing of Europe's centre-right parties as well as of some Socialist governments, he is seen as likely to keep the top job for another five-year mandate.

More EU states heading for deficit action
ANDREW WILLIS 13.05.2009 @ 17:43 CET

The European commission adopted economic reports on Lithuania, Malta, Poland and Romania on Wednesday (13 May), signalling that the EU executive now considers their budget deficits in 2008 to have been in breach of EU rules known as the stability and growth pact.It is vital that we apply the stability and growth pact …and devise an adjustment path to correct deficits and debts in a timely way,said economy commissioner Joaquin Almunia.This is key to preserve the sustainability of public finances in the medium-to-long term,he added. Under the rules, EU member states are not allowed to run budget deficits in excess of 3 percent of their gross domestic product. Following Wednesday's decision, the reports will now be handed to a committee of financial experts whose opinion is taken into account before the commission asks EU finance ministers to endorse corrective measures for the four states at their next meeting in June. The states then have six months to adopt the necessary measures aimed at bringing down their budget deficits within a specific timeframe, deficits largely caused by falling tax receipts and expansionary fiscal policies in 2008.Malta for instance re-nationalised its shipyards last year at a cost of 1.3 per cent of GDP, whereas Poland increased income tax relief for families, as well as pension and social benefits.

The fallout

As a member of the euro area, Malta is the only one of the four countries that could in theory receive fines as a result of its excessive budget deficit, although the EU executive is quick to point out this has never happened in the past.We don't regard any talk of sanctions as helpful,commission spokesman Mark English told EUobserver.

Instead he describes the process as a multilateral surveillance system whereby member states put pressure on each other to reduce their deficits once the current economic crisis is over.Poland's excessive deficit appears to be having more direct consequences however. On Monday the country's finance minister, Jacek Rostowski, admitted that entry to the euro area was likely to be delayed by as much as one year as a result of the economic crisis and the government's deteriorating finances.

Poland had hoped to join the two-year waiting chamber, known as ERM-II, to the euro area this year, with a full shift to the common currency scheduled for 2012.The commission's decision follows a similar move by the EU executive in February regarding the excessive deficits of Greece, Ireland, Latvia and Spain. The UK and Hungary were already operating under the procedure prior to the onset of the financial crisis.

Eurojust chief embroiled in Portuguese corruption scandal
VALENTINA POP 13.05.2009 @ 17:32 CET

EUOBSERVER/BRUSSELS – The EU's judicial co-operation body, Eurojust, on Wednesday tried to distance itself from a scandal involving its head, Jose da Mota, who allegedly put pressure on prosecutors in order to stop a corruption probe involving Portuguese Prime Minister Jose Socrates.For the time being, Eurojust does not want to comment on this case. It is a national case in Portugal and Eurojust is not involved in this case,Johannes Thuy, a spokesman for the Hague-based EU body told this website.

Portugal's general prosecutor on Tuesday launched a disciplinary procedure against Mr Mota following an internal investigation of alleged pressures on magistrates.The accusations were made in connection with a case pointing at Mr Socrates at a time when he was minister of enviroment and allowed the construction of an outlet shopping mall on protected land allegedly in exchange for kickbacks.Two magistrates dealing with the so-called Freeport affair last month accused Mr Mota of having tried to persuade them to side-line the investigation at the request of the premier and the minister of justice.The premier and Mr Mota's relationship goes back to the late nineties, when they worked in the same government as state secretaries for environment and justice respectively. In 2002, when the new EU body was formed, Mr Mota was transferred to Hague as Portugal's representative to Eurojust. He was elected head of the judicial co-operation body in 2007, at a time when the so-called Freeport case had already started.As head of Eurojust, Mr Mota not only represents the EU body in public events, but also chairs the internal meetings, such as the one last year when Portuguese prosecutors asked their British counterparts to hand them over the evidence collected in the Freeport case.If formally indicted after the disciplinary procedure which might last around 10 days, Mr Mota would most probably be replaced by someone else as Portugal's representative to Eurojust.These allegations are incredibly serious and, if proved, call into question the political independence and credibility of Eurojust,Stephen Booth from Open Europe, a London-based eurosceptic think-tank told this website.

Socrates to survive in elections

The Socialist Prime Minister, who currently holds an absolute majority in the Parliament, is set to be re-elected in September, despite some losses in the opinion polls due to the Freeport affair, pundits say. Mr Socrates is starting to fall in the polls and he will not manage an absolute majority like in 2005, but he will still win,Tiago Luz Pedro, political editor at Publico, one of Portugal's main newspapers, told EUObserver.British fraud investigators pointed at Prime Minister due to unexplained missing sums in the company's books, related to the period Freeport was bidding for a construction licence in Portugal in 2002, when Mr Socrates was minister of enviroment.The Socialist politician has constantly denied these accusations and claimed the scandal was politically motivated.

Russia may face wars over energy MAY 13,09

Guy Faulconbridge Print Story Russia may face wars on its borders in the near future over control of energy resources, a Kremlin document on security policy said on Wednesday.The paper did not name potential adversaries, but Russia, the world's biggest energy producer, shares a border of more than 3,600 km (2,250 miles) with resource-hungry China and a small sea border with the United States.In a competition for resources, problems that involve the use of military force cannot be excluded that would destroy the balance of forces close to the borders of the Russian Federation and her allies,said the document, which maps out Russia's security strategy until 2020.The attention of international politics in the long-term perspective will be concentrated on the acquisition of energy resources,the paper said.It said regions where such a competition for resources could arise included the Middle East, the Barents Sea, the Arctic, the Caspian Sea and Central Asia. Russia also sees increased competition for food, fresh water and land.The strategy document was approved by President Dmitry Medvedev on Tuesday and published on Wednesday by the Russian Security Council, which includes Russia's top politicians and intelligence chiefs and is chaired by Medvedev.Russia, the world's largest producer of gas and second biggest exporter of oil, sees these resources as a way to revive its clout as an energy superpower after the chaos which accompanied the 1991 fall of the Soviet Union.

GAS RIVALRY

The Kremlin has watched with displeasure as the European Union, the United States and China seek to challenge its dominance over energy supplies from the former Soviet Union.Former president Vladimir Putin, now prime minister, has accused Washington of coveting Russia's mineral wealth.The European Union, which gets a quarter of its gas from Russia, is pushing a pipeline project known as Nabucco which would bypass Russia in pumping up to 31 billion cubic metres of gas from the Caspian Sea to Europe.The EU has courted Turkmenistan, Central Asia's biggest gas producer, as a potential supplier for Nabucco. This has provoked feverish Russian diplomacy to keep Moscow's grip over Turkmen gas intact.Energy, not an issue during Russia's short war with Georgia last August, was at the centre of a row with Ukraine this January that led to the biggest disruption in decades to Russian gas supplies to Europe.The document says Russia will seek to widen ties with developing powers such as Brazil, India and China and the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, which groups China and Central Asian states.The impact of the world economic crisis remains a major threat to national security, according to the document.The consequences of the world financial-economic crises could become comparable to the damage done by the large-scale use of military force,it said.Russia will seek to become one of the world's top five economies in the medium term but its reliance on the export of oil, gas and natural resources is a perennial weakness which needs to be resolved, the document said.(Editing by Mark Trevelyan)

SINS OF PEOPLE

2 TIMOTHY 3:1-5
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

DECIEVERS WAXING WORSE AND WORSE.

5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
14 And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.
15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

THIS IS SICK,RAPE A WEAPON OF WAR.PEOPLE ARE SO DEMON POSSESSED THESE DAYS ITS REDICULAS.

Rape is effective weapon of war, senators told By WILLIAM C. MANN, Associated Press Writer – Wed May 13, 8:07 pm ET

WASHINGTON – Hundreds of thousands of women, girls and babies have been raped during 12 years of conflict in eastern Congo, victims of a weapon of war that almost always goes unpunished, senators were told Wednesday.Similar atrocities are found in Darfur, the devastated western Sudan region where the United States said in 2004 that genocide was occurring. Women also have been targeted on a wide scale in recent decades during wars in Asia and Europe.The Senate Foreign Relations Committee heard testimony on the plight of women caught up in violence, emphasizing the Darfur and Congo disasters.Melanne Verveer, the State Department's ambassador-at-large for global women's issues, said 1,100 rapes are reported every month in the Congo battle area, which is 36 women and girls raped each day.Many are maimed by their attackers as well, she said.Rape is employed as a weapon because it is effective,Verveer said.It destroys the fabric of society from within and does so more efficiently than do guns or bombs.Rape is an effective weapon of war because it breaks apart families and communities, Verveer said.In addition to these rapes and gang rapes, of which there have been hundreds of thousands over the duration of the conflict, the perpetrators frequently mutilate the woman in the course of the attack,she said.The apparent purpose is to leave a lasting and inerasable signal to others that the woman has been violated.That, she said, in Congo as in many other cultures gives the victim a lifelong badge of shame.If married, she often is cast aside. If unmarried, she cannot find a mate.She said humanitarian organizations "report that attacks on women destroy the nucleus of the families, and with the unraveling families, the communities also disintegrate.There is little place in these villages to shore up the collapse of these integral institutions.

To make matters worse, she said, she quoted a report by the Human Rights Integrated Office in Congo that spoke of a marked lack of seriousness by law officers and magistrates toward raped females.Men accused of rape are often granted bail or given light sentences,Verveer said.Few cases are reported to the police, and fewer still are in prosecution.Verveer said that of the 14,000 rape cases registered in the Congo's provincial health centers in between 2005 and 2007, only 287 were taken to trial.She said police lack proper training, and the rule of law must be strengthened and provide victims given with access to justice while offering them protection throughout the judicial process.Verveer said Susan Rice, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, plans to visit Africa with representatives of the U.N. Security Council. One of their visits, Verveer said, will be to a hospital in the eastern Congo, where there is one of only two doctors in the region who are capable of the kind of surgery needed to rehabilitate women and girls whose organs are maimed by their attackers.Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer said the situation is a shame on the human race.Republican Sens. Johnny Isakson and Bob Corker, members of the committee, said they plan to visit the area in about 10 days, heading first to Khartoum, Sudan's capital, then to Darfur.

Like a famous WWII Belgian General,Paul Henry Spock said in 1957:We need no commission, we have already too many. What we need is a man who is great enough to be able to keep all the people in subjection to himself and to lift us out of the economic bog into which we threaten to sink. Send us such a man. Be he a god or a devil, we will accept him.And today, sadly, the world is indeed ready for such a man.

Geithner To Take Orders From Global Elite At Bilderberg
Paul Joseph Watson Prison Planet.com Thursday, May 14, 2009

According to a London Times report, U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner will probably be in attendance at this week’s Bilderberg Group meeting, as top globalists meet to plot the financial future of the planet behind closed doors.The Times article notes that US Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner’s public schedule is mysteriously empty for the next two days,speculating that he will be in Vouliagmeni, Greece for the annual elitist confab, following in the footsteps of Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, who attended last year’s conference in Washington DC just months before the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the start of the economic crisis.Geithner, who has overseen Obama’s bailout agenda since taking over from Hank Paulson, is the perfect stooge to implement the global financial regulatory systems that elitists have called for in the aftermath of the financial downturn.Back in March, Geithner publicly stated that there were no plans to move towards a global currency to supplant the dollar, and yet at a private CFR meeting he assured his fellow globalists that he was open to the notion of a new global currency system.

Geithner’s presence at Bilderberg is noteworthy, not only because Bernanke attended immediately before the economic crisis last year, but also because Bilderberg’s agenda for 2009 is heavily weighted towards the financial crisis. According to a pre-meeting booklet handed out to members that was leaked to investigative journalist Daniel Estulin, Bilderberg is divided on whether to put into motion, Either a prolonged, agonizing depression that dooms the world to decades of stagnation, decline and poverty … or an intense-but-shorter depression that paves the way for a new sustainable economic world order, with less sovereignty but more efficiency.The Times also reports that World Bank President Robert Zoellick,Will be in Athens on unspecified business on May 14,meaning it’s almost certain that he too will attend Bilderberg, as numerous past World Bank chiefs have done in previous years.During a speech which preceded this year’s G8 summit, Zoellick openly admitted Bilderberg’s plan to eliminate national sovereignty and impose a global government via the imposition of worldwide financial regulatory powers.Speaking about the agenda to increase not just funding but power for international organizations on the back of the financial crisis, Zoellick stated, If leaders are serious about creating new global responsibilities or governance, let them start by modernising multilateralism to empower the WTO, the IMF, and the World Bank Group to monitor national policies.

To say we were striving for a one-world government is exaggerated, but not wholly unfair,top Bilderberg member Lord Healey once told author Jon Ronson, adding that Bilderberg members thought A single community throughout the world would be a good thing.As we have previously highlighted, the European Union was a creation of Bilderberg founding members, aided by top Nazi economists such as Hermann Abs, Hitler’s top banker and a man described by Bilderberg luminary David Rockefeller as the greatest banker of the 20th century.In addition to Geithner’s probable attendance, US Deputy Secretary of State James Steinberg is using the pretext of an obscure meeting with Greek officials, the first time a member of the Obama administration has done so, to take his place at Bilderberg.According to Greek newspaper Kathimerini, Steinberg will be in Athens for a meeting of the international invitation-only club, the Bilderberg Group, which begins today and runs until Saturday.

From The TimesMay 14, 2009 Shadowy Bilderberg group meet in Greece — and here’s their address By Roger Boyes and John Carr in Athens

Don’t tell anyone, don’t breathe a word, but the world’s most powerful men are meeting secretly again to save the planet from economic catastrophe. Oh, and their address, should you want to send them your opinions, is: c/o Nafsika Astir Palace Hotel, Apollonos Avenue 40, 16671 Vouliagmeni, Greece. Bed space is a bit tight there for the next two days while the Bilderberg illuminati hold their private conclave in the five-star Greek hotel. Every year since 1954 a club of about 130 senior or up-and-coming politicians gather at the fireside of a secluded hotel with top bankers and a sprinkling of royalty to discuss burning issues, to trade confidences and just stay abreast of the I-know-something-you-don’t-know circuit. No lists of participants are disclosed, no press conferences are held; spill the beans and you’re out of the magic circle. For those of us standing outside the locked gates all that is left is to hope that they will sleep well, avoid jet ski injury and solve our problems for us. For the Bilderbergers it is a little like that recent MI5 recruitment ad: See all your best work go unnoticed! Each country delegates two people to the steering committee that is the intellectual hub of Bilderberg. In the past Kenneth Clarke, the Shadow Business Secretary, and Martin Taylor, formerly head of Barclays Bank, have had their hand on the British tiller.This year the club is going to talk about depression. According to the pre-meeting booklet sent out to attendees, Bilderberg is looking at two options,says the Bilderberg-watcher Daniel Estulin — either a prolonged, agonising depression that dooms the world to decades of stagnation, decline and poverty — or an intense but shorter depression that paves the way for a new sustainable economic world order, with less sovereignty but more efficiency.Since Bilderberg does not officially exist, it cannot deny anything and is therefore manna from heaven for the conspiracy theorist. Eurosceptics are convinced that the future development of the European Union was plotted here — EU commissioners have always been welcomed into the coven, with Peter We are intensely relaxed about people getting filthy rich Mandelson a particular favourite. Margaret Thatcher, it is said, was a shy debutante at a Bilderberg meeting in 1975.

Jim Tucker, veteran stalker of the Bilderberg club meetings, claims that Mrs Thatcher was ordered to dismantle British sovereignty, but she said, no way, so they had her sacked. Left-wing conspiracy theorists believe that Bilderbergers form a capitalist nucleus, and there is a germ of truth in this. The meetings were started in the Netherlands, in the Hotel de Bilderberg, near Arnhem, by the Polish exile Joseph Retinger. He was worried about growing anti-Americanism and the advance of Communism in Western Europe. Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands agreed to sponsor the idea, the head of the Central Intelligence Agency, Walter Bedell Smith, threw his weight behind it and so did the White House. The Bilderberg consensus is that national problems are best solved by an internationally oriented elite, that a global network of decision-makers should have a common language and that the boundaries are fluid between the monied and the political classes. And so there has been a natural bias towards inviting conservatives and market liberals. The only socialists invited are those who understand money. Ed Balls has taken part and the most indiscreet Bilderberger of all time was Denis Healey, the former Labour Chancellor and fierce Atlanticist. To say we were striving for a one-world government is exaggerated, but not wholly unfair,Lord Healey told the author Jon Ronson for his book Them: Adventures with Extremists. Those of us in Bilderberg felt we couldn’t go on for ever fighting one another for nothing. So we felt that a single community throughout the world would be a good thing.

Another way of viewing the club is that of Metropolitan Seraphim, the bishop of Piraeus, who said that the Bilderbergers represented a criminal cabal of world Zionism and its efforts to set up a cruel world dictatorship under the headship of Lucifer. This line is quite common on the blogosphere, where the club’s secrecy is taken as evidence of evil intentions. Whether Lucifer will be down there on the sun-loungers remains to be seen. But what we have been able to establish from a World Bank spokesman, Alexis O’Brien, is that the organisation’s president, Robert Zoellick, will be in Athens on unspecified business on May 14. And that US Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner’s public schedule is mysteriously empty for the next two days. Jo Ackermann, head of Deutsche Bank, will be travelling somewhere in Europe. Jean-Claude Trichet, head of the European Central Bank, will not be around until the end of the week.You get the drift. Something is going on. If only somebody would let us in on the secret.

BILDERBERGS MEET IN ATHENS STARTING TODAY MAY 14-17.HERE IS FROM THEIR MEETING IN 1996IN TORONTO CANADA.

EXCLUSIVE TO THE SPOTLIGHT BY TRISHA KATSON Published in The Spotlight, Volume XXII, No. 25, June 24,1996

Although media guests won't talk about it, not all participants at the Bilderberg conference near Toronto are adhering strictly to traditional ground rules that preclude attendees from talking to the press. Jack Sheinkman, chairman of the board of Amalgamated Bank, said he raised plenty of questions about a variety of subjects.

Sheinkman, a Bilderberg Steering Committee member, said he has attended 10 Bilderberg annual meetings and that the conferences are not just inconsequential gab fests.

IMPORTANT DISCUSSIONS
In some cases discussions do have an impact and become policy,he said.The idea of a common European currency was discussed several years back before it became policy. We had a discussion about the U.S. establishing formal relations with China before [former President Richard] Nixon actually did it.The King City conference focused mostly on foreign policy issues, Sheinkman said. This included how to proceed in Yugoslavia, developments in Russia and China, political elections in the U.S., and the outlook for the Maastricht [Treaty],establishing a common currency and market in Europe, better known as the European Union.

[Henry] Kissinger chaired a panel of what is happening in Israel and the impact on American foreign policy,he added. There were interventions from people in the U.S. and Canada who either commented or questioned panelists.The banker said there were also "opportunities for informal interchanges.Sheinkman said he brought up the rights of workers around the globe. The idea of management working with unions, rather than opposing each other, was encouraged he said. Many conferees denounced Pat Buchanan who is perceived as someone who wants trade killed.I am not opposed to [international free] trade per se,Sheinkman said. {But], the multinationals go offshore and put pressure on our domestic workers. Henry Ford believed you could pay workers five dollars a day so they could buy the products they were making.

Alice Victor, executive assistant of Rockefeller Financial Services, was also at the meeting in King City, Ontario. There may be an interest by the American people about what happens at Bilderberg meetings, she said, but that's a moot point. It was formed for the purpose of having off-the-record meetings.She saw the Toronto Star's coverage, including its publication of the meeting guest list. They saw people arrive, whoever they saw landing at the airport, but they weren't given a list.

SINCE THE EU WORLD DICTATOR WILL BE A KING KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THE KINGS OF THE WORLD THAT ATTEND BILDERBERG FROM EUROPE.

IF THIS BILDERBERG GROUP DOES NOT EXIST THEN THIS LIST OF PEOPLE ARE SO DELUTED FOR GOING TO PLACES AROUND THE WORLD TO MEET WITH OTHER PEOPLE THAT DO NOT EXIST,INTERESTING HOW STUPID THE MEDIA CLAIM WE ARE.

One Response to Bilderberg Group Members List.Everyperson on this list is an anti-christ and nothing is more evil.The Americans should be stripped of their citizenship and banned from the country.The world is today what they have created. The violence and misery is on their doorstep. But what is worse, is that we have allowed it to happen and are doing nothing to stop the forward movement.Wake up! WAKE UP! IT IS TIME TO TAKE TO THE STREETS – AN AMERICAN BASTILLE DAY! Alas, the sheeple are totally asleep.How sad . . . The late great United States of America was a magnificient idea that we allowed to die.Charles A. Kerr II, Ph.D. said this on February 14, 2009 at 13:26
