			<title>Afghanistan - victim of a war of aggression, crime against peace, war crimes by the US and NATO forces</title>

			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/TURKMEN-PIPELINE.jpg" alt="TURKMEN-PIPELINE.jpg" title="TURKMEN-PIPELINE.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="245" /><br />
<em>Canadian mainstream media has been promoting Canada&#8217;s illegal role in Afghanistan, with almost no critical voices, despite polling that indicates between 48% to 62% of Canadians not only question but oppose our engagement of troops in this war-torn country. The US attack against Afghanistan was solely to remove the Taliban in order for the US to build and control the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline (TAP or TAPI), a natural gas pipeline that will transport Caspian Sea natural gas from Turkmenistan through Afghanistan into Pakistan and then to India.  <a href="http://commdocs.house.gov/committees/intlrel/hfa48119.000/hfa48119_0.HTM">FEBRUARY 12, 1998 US Congressional hearing</a> where Unocal petitioned the US government to overthrow the Afghan Taliban government to build a US controlled Trans-Afghan gas pipeline - &#8220;From the outset, we have made it clear that construction of the pipeline we have proposed across Afghanistan could not begin until a recognized government is in place that has the confidence of governments, lenders, and our company.&#8221;</em></p>
	<p>It is time for all of us to come to our senses and see who the aggressors are and who the victims are in the US war of aggression against the innocent people of Afghanistan. All the evidence points to the US White House as being the aggressors who attacked an innocent country and removed by military force the government of the foreign and sovereign state of Afghanistan. The evidence clearly states, beyond reasonable doubt, and has been confirmed by the US government that Afghanistan had nothing to do with the Bush administration&#8217;s orchestrated terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. A criminal investigation would have revealed that the US White House ordered the attack against itself &#8211; a revised version of a U.S. Military Drafted Plan to Terrorize U.S. Cities to Provoke War called <a href="http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/news/20010430/northwoods.pdf">Operation Northwoods</a>.</p>
	<p>The US falsely accused Afghanistan of harboring the alleged mastermind of 911, bin Laden. Bin Laden was a fabricated excuse. The motive of the White House to commit such horrific crimes against an innocent country, its government and people was (1) to take control of the Afghanistan natural gas pipeline project that the Taliban government was building to guarantee the future of the Afghan people, (2) for the US to revive the Opium trade that the Taliban had wiped out. The US DEA and the UN both went to Afghanistan in March of 2001 and confirmed that the Taliban had wiped out the illegal drug trade &#8211; UN records confirm the fact that the Taliban government met the demands of the International community to destroy all traces of the Opium drug trade..</p>
	<p>Under the Taliban government there was no Opium being grown or harvested for US and European markets. Afghanistan was drug free. Today under the US and NATO illegal attack, slaughter and occupation Afghanistan is the largest grower of the illegal Opium that is used to make heroin. The US FBI isn&#8217;t even seeking bin Laden for the attacks of 9/11 because they know there is absolutely no evidence that he or any of the named hijackers took part in the White House attack against their own country on September 11, 2001. In the 9/11 Commission Hearing evidence was presented but deleted from the official record that vice-president Dick Cheney committed high treason on September 11, 2001 by ordering the entire US Air Force and US National Defense Systems that protects the Pentagon, the White House and the civilian population, to stand down. Former Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta gave testimony that Dick Cheney Ordered Stand Down on 9/11.</p>
	<p>Mineta says Vice President Cheney was &#8220;absolutely&#8221; already there when he arrived at approximately 9:25 a.m. in the PEOC (Presidential Emergency Operations Center) bunker on the morning of 9/11. Mineta seemed shocked to learn that the 9/11 Commission Report claimed Cheney had not arrived there until 9:58&#8211; after the Pentagon had been hit, a report that Mineta definitively contradicted.</p>
	<p>Norman Mineta revealed that Lynn Cheney was also in the PEOC bunker already at the time of his arrival, along with a number of other staff.</p>
	<p>&#8220;During the time that the airplane was coming into the Pentagon, there was a young man who would come in and say to the Vice President&#8230;the plane is 50 miles out&#8230;the plane is 30 miles out&#8230;.and when it got down to the plane is 10 miles out, the young man also said to the vice president &#8220;do the orders still stand?&#8221; And the Vice President turned and whipped his neck around and said &#8220;Of course the orders still stand, have you heard anything to the contrary!?</p>
	<p>Mineta confirmed his statements with reporters, saying &#8220;When I overheard something about &#8216;the orders still stand&#8217; and so, what I thought of was that they had already made the decision to shoot something down.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Norman Mineta made it clear to reporters&#8211; who verified his quotes in written text alongside him&#8211; that Mineta was indeed talking about a stand down order not to shoot down hijacked aircraft headed for the Pentagon.</p>
	<p>After no shoot down took place, it became clear that Cheney intended to keep NORAD fighter jets from responding&#8211; evidence that Cheney is guilty of treason, not negligence for allowing the Pentagon to be hit.</p>
	<p><strong>War of aggression</strong></p>
	<p><strong>A war of aggression is a military conflict waged for the clear purposes of territorial aggrandizement and conquest.</strong> Waging such a war of aggression is a crime under the customary international law. Wars without international legality (e.g. not out of self-defense, not sanctioned by the United Nations Security Council, and not sanctioned by Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations) are considered wars of aggression.</p>
	<p>The International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg, which followed World War II, called the <strong>waging of aggressive war &#8220;essentially an evil thing&#8230;to initiate a war of aggression&#8230;is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime, differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole.&#8221;</strong></p>
	<p>The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court refers to the crime of aggression as one of the &#8220;most serious crimes of concern to the international community&#8221;, and provides that the crime falls within the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court (ICC).</p>
	<p>The evidence clearly states that the Taliban and the Afghan people are the victims of US and NATO war of aggression, crime against peace, crimes against humanity, torture, murder, kidnapping, and continued military attacks against civilians and civilian infrastructure. Under US, International, Canadian, British, French, German, Polish and other NATO countries&#8217; laws the actions taken against Afghanistan are illegal.</p>
	<p>War crimes are &#8220;violations of the laws or customs of war&#8221;, including but not limited to &#8220;murder, the ill-treatment or deportation of civilian residents of an occupied territory to slave labor camps&#8221;, &#8220;the murder or ill-treatment of prisoners of war&#8221;, the killing of hostages, &#8220;the wanton destruction of cities, towns and villages, and any devastation not justified by military necessity&#8221;</p>
	<p><strong>War crimes</strong> are defined in the statute that established the International Criminal Court, which includes:</p>
	<p>1. Grave breaches of the Geneva Conventions, such as:<br />
1. <strong>Willful killing, or causing great suffering or serious injury to body or health</strong><br />
2. <strong>Torture</strong> or <strong>inhumane treatment</strong><br />
3. <strong>Unlawful wanton destruction or appropriation of property</strong><br />
4. Forcing a prisoner of war to serve in the forces of a hostile power<br />
5. <strong>Depriving a prisoner of war of a fair trial</strong><br />
6. <strong>Unlawful deportation, confinement or transfer</strong><br />
7. Taking hostages</p>
	<p>2. The following acts as part of an international conflict:<br />
1. <strong>Directing attacks against civilians</strong><br />
2. <strong>Directing attacks against humanitarian workers or UN peacekeepers</strong><br />
3. <strong>Killing a surrendered combatant</strong><br />
4. <strong>Misusing a flag of truce</strong><br />
5. <strong>Settlement of occupied territory</strong><br />
6. <strong>Deportation of inhabitants of occupied territory</strong><br />
7. <strong>Using poison weapons</strong><br />
8. Using civilians as shields<br />
9. Using child soldiers</p>
	<p>3. The following acts as part of a non-international conflict:<br />
1. <strong>Murder, cruel or degrading treatment and torture</strong><br />
2. <strong>Directing attacks against civilians, humanitarian workers or UN peacekeepers</strong><br />
3. Taking hostages<br />
4. <strong>Summary execution</strong><br />
5. Pillage<br />
6. Rape, sexual slavery, forced prostitution or forced pregnancy</p>
	<p>The punishment for committing war crimes was capital punishment, but in many cases, war criminals were sent to national prisons to live out the rest of their lives.</p>
	<p>In 1945, the London Charter of the International Military Tribunal defined three categories of crimes, including crimes against peace - known as the Nuremberg Principles.</p>
	<p>In 1950, the Nuremberg Tribunal defined Crimes against Peace, in Principle 6, specifically Principle VI(a), submitted to the United Nations General Assembly, as:</p>
	<p>(i) Planning, preparation, initiation or waging of a war of aggression or a war in violation of international treaties, agreements or assurances; (Rebuilding America&#8217;s Defenses: Strategies, Forces, and Resources For a New Century, was the report written for the Bush White House and it laid out the entire plan to attack the Middle East before 9/11 even occurred. This report is the &#8220;smoking gun&#8221; evidence that the Bush White House planned for, prepared for and initiated a war of aggression in violation of international treaties, agreements or assurances. The PNAC&#8217;s stated goal is &#8220;to promote American global leadership. &#8220;Fundamental to the PNAC are the views that &#8220;American leadership is both good for America and good for the world&#8221; and support for &#8220;a Reaganite policy of military strength and moral clarity.&#8221; The US attacks against its own country to initiate illegal wars of aggression against; Afghanistan (to steal their natural gas and revive the Opium trade), Iraq (to steal their oil and priceless Christian and Muslim artifacts), and soon Iran (to steal the third largest oil supplier in the World)<br />
(ii) Participation in a common plan or conspiracy for the accomplishment of any of the acts mentioned under (i). (NATO countries including Canada, are guilty of crimes against Peace by continuing to participate in the US war of aggression against the proven, beyond reasonable doubt, innocence of Afghanistan, its Taliban government and its people. NATO, including Canada are willing participants in the US planned, prepared and waging of a war of aggression against the sovereignty of Afghanistan in violation of treaties, agreements or assurances. The evidence demands that the US, NATO, Canada and all other co-conspiring nations end their illegal war of aggression and occupation of Afghanistan. Under the law it is demanded that all countries abandon these unlawful acts that have murdered, maimed and wrongly imprisoned the victims of the US pre-meditated War Crimes. It is the duty of the law enforcement agencies in each of the participating countries to indict the leaders of the aggressive countries for Crimes against Peace, War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity. A police officers&#8217; duty is to uphold the law. They are servants of the law. Police officers are bound by oath and duty to apprehend all those who have broken the laws - the thread of the fabric of a civilized and humane society. Even the president of the United States of America is bound by oath to obey the law:</p>
	<p>&#8220;I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.&#8221;</p>
	<p>The United States Constitution is the supreme law of the United States of America.</p>
	<p>Fourteenth Amendment &#8220;No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Chief American prosecutor at the Nuremberg Trail for Nazi War Criminals, Robert H. Jackson, stated:</p>
	<p>To initiate a war of aggression, therefore, is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole.

			<title>Ceaseless and senseless disease mongering turns Americans into profit-generating guinea pigs for Big Pharma</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100307-073636</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/designer_drugs.jpg" alt="designer_drugs.jpg" title="designer_drugs.jpg"  class="center" width="367" height="275" /> </p>
	<p>Disease mongering - the practice of pushing disease in order to sell more drugs - has become so routine and so successful in modern medicine that drug companies actually depend on inventing new diseases as a way to ensure future profits. It&#8217;s not enough to sell drugs to people who are truly sick, you see. Big Pharma cleverly figured out that they could sell even MORE drugs if they simply invented new diseases and convinced people they needed pharmaceuticals to treat those diseases.</p>
	<p>The FDA, always happy to serve the profit interests of Big Pharma, went right along with the ploy and legalized television and magazine drug ads in 1997. Since then, drug sales have skyrocketed, drug company profits have ballooned, and fictitious disease diagnoses have proliferated at an alarming rate.</p>
	<p>Diseases such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder and Diabetes are completely fictitious, invented by the drug industry. Conditions like &#8220;high cholesterol&#8221; aren&#8217;t diseases at all (they&#8217;re simply descriptions of blood chemistry), and artificially lowering high cholesterol with statin drugs has been scientifically found to offer absolutely no net health benefit whatsoever. </p>
	<p>Diabetes isn&#8217;t a disease its fear mongering by the drug industry by falsely claiming that the natural up and down blood sugar levels are signs of the disease.  You body&#8217;s sugar levels will naturally vary throughout the day.  This is totally natural.  If you don&#8217;t eat your blood sugar level will naturally drop dramatically.  If you eat too much, especially foods high in sugar, your blood sugar level will spike - all natural.  It is because most people are not aware of how their body functions that the drug industry scars them into thinking they are diabetic when they are actual not.  Once they convince you that your body&#8217;s normal fluctuations in blood sugar level are signs of a disease they have you as a life time customer.  They scar people by saying that if you don&#8217;t take your daily insulin shot you could go blind  or lose a leg.  This is fear mongering to it extremes but people actually buy into this BS.  </p>
	<p>Understanding how our body functions is key to avoiding the drug companies&#8217; claim that you are diabetic. First of all, all carbohydrates, whether sugars or starches, are digested in the intestine to form glucose, which is transported around the body via the blood and taken into cells to be converted into energy. The naturally created hormone insulin, secreted by the pancreas gland within the abdomen, controls this action of cell glucose uptake. Excess glucose is converted into glycogen, which is stored in the liver or in fat around the body. If the body needs more energy, a second hormone, glucagon, is secreted by the pancreas which converts the glycogen back into glucose. It is then released back into the bloodstream so that with the help of the insulin, the cells can take up the glucose to release the energy they need.</p>
	<p>The glucose or sugar metabolism of the body is a cycle of glucose, insulin and glucagon reactions. The slower the release of glucose and hormones, the more stable and sustainable the energy levels of the body. It is generally accepted that the more <strong>refined</strong> the <strong>carbohydrate</strong>, the faster the glucose will be released into the blood, which <strong>causes less stable energy levels in the body</strong>. Complex carbohydrates (produced naturally) provides a slower and more sustained release of energy than the simple carbohydrates.   So one would naturally conclude that to control ones fluctuations in sugar level one need only to simply adjust their diet.  Adjust your diet by eliminating manufactured (refined) carbohydrates and eat only complex carbohydrates ~ natural foods like fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, grains, potatoes, dry beans, carrots and corn.  Refined carbohydrates found in many processed, convenient foods tend to be devoid of these natural nutrients, therefore there is a  greater risk that some of the energy will be converted into fat.</p>
	<p>Insulin injected into diabetics was mostly extracted from cows and pigs and placed under a purification process. Cow and pig (often referred to as porcine and bovine insulin) insulin is only slightly different from human insulin, which makes them function almost as well in the human body. However, this does not mean that allergic reactions never occur. Some people experience allergic reactions to purified insulin.  Then in 1982 insulin was no longer extracted from animals, it was genetically engineered (lab created). </p>
	<p>In 1982, the lab created insulin, named Humulin, was created by the Eli Lilly Corporation and was approved for use. With the use of genetic engineering, we stopped using the safer natural insulin from animals to supply us with insulin.  We now get our insulin supply from laboratory manufacturers. As of 2001, almost 95% of insulin users are already using lab created insulin and insulin analogs, which is a modified form of insulin.</p>
	<p>Lab manufactured insulin is grown inside the lab, using the bacteria E. coli (cause serious food poisoning in humans) and some forms of yeast. Through the use of amino-acid sequencing and large amounts of the bacteria, DNA is inserted into the host cells (i.e. E.coli) and the bacteria are allowed to grow. The bacteria creates a synthetic form of the hormone, which is then purified in a centrifuge or through high-frequency liquid chromatography. Clinical preparations differ from naturally-produced insulin, one of them being that synthetic insulin lacks C-peptides, a substance which has been found to reduce the risk of neuropathy among diabetic patients.   That means the lab created insulin posses a very serious health risk to the public as the lack of C-peptides can cause damage to the peripheral nerves - nerves that carry information between the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord) and the rest of the body.  Another example of the treatment causing more harm to the patient than what the the disease would actually cause.  </p>
	<p>Breast cancer is so frequently misdiagnosed that for every one woman helped by cancer screening and treatment, ten are harmed by it, and Restless Legs Syndrome is so routinely marketed and hyped that people who hadn&#8217;t even heard of the disease two years ago now think they need patented chemicals to treat it.</p>
	<p>By any honest assessment, pharmaceutical medicine today is all a grand hoax. Advertising firms are hired by drug companies to invent, package and market new diseases that can be used to sell more drugs.</p>
	<p>As the drug companies are running out of real diseases to boost their pharmaceutical sales, they&#8217;re increasingly inventing new, fictitious diseases in order to scare people into thinking they have some sort of disorder or dysfunction. Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is perhaps the best known fictitious disease invented to sell psychotropic drugs, but there are many other made-up diseases such as General Anxiety Disorder (GAD).</p>
	<p>All this is headed to an obvious conclusion: every quirky or uncomfortable human behavior will soon be labeled a disease, and a medication will be quickly be dispensed to deal with that &#8220;disease.&#8221;</p>
	<p>The most recent disease and viral fear mongering by the drug companies is with the lab created Avian flu and the H1N1 virus, both created by the US government as fear mongering bio weapons in their bio-weapons lab in Fort Detrick Maryland.  The major drug companies made $billions in profits after they successfully lobbied former US president George W Bush and De facto US president Barry Obama to sell these mild influenza viruses, through government sponsored fear mongering campaigns, as pandemics.  The fact is there never was a pandemic.  The drug companies needed the US government to declare a pandemic in order to get $billions from the US taxpayers to develop and market their new designer drugs that will actually kill people - not the actual viruses.  No one has actually died from the Avian flu or the H1N1 virus.  People have died from the adverse and deadly side effects of the drug treatments for these lab created designer influenza viruses.  There is no need for any drugs to combat and kill both influenza strains.  As stated time and again your body&#8217;s own immune system will successfully combat and kill any and all man made influenza viruses with a <strong>high fever</strong>.  The drug industry have designed their so-called antidotes for Avian Flu and Obama&#8217;s H1N1 virus to interfere with the body&#8217;s natural ability to kill their diseases by adding an anti-fever chemical to their Witches&#8217; brew. </p>
	<p>If everyone just takes the time to learn how your body works and eats properly and exercises regularly will always be safe from contracting any virus or disease, natural or man made.  It is solely because the mass majority is uninformed or uneducated that they fall victim to the drug companies drug pushing campaigns.  Drug companies fabricate synthetic drugs with high potential for abuse and dependence.  The drug companies are no better than the drug pushers who sell illegal drugs like cocaine, LSD and Meth to kids and adults.  The only difference is that they give kickbacks to government officials so that they can legally sell their harmful and most times deadly new designer drugs for their totally fabricated diseases and make $billion profits.  </p>
	<p>One very important note.  Who is back at his old job with a major drug company and has made a very huge profit after Obama ordered millions of dosages of his drug company&#8217;s drug Tamiflu that was supposedly needed to fight the now dead H1N1 virus?  That would be war criminal and butcher of Baghdad Donald Rumsfeld.  As confirmed in a company press statement in 1997, Donald H. Rumsfeld assumed the position of Chairman, of GILEAD Science Inc.  Gilead Science Inc &#8220;has been active in the development of  inhibitors for the <span style="text-decoration: underline">potential</span> (meaning it doesn&#8217;t work) treatment and prevention of viral influenza and protease inhibitors for the potential treatment of HIV&#8221; </p>
	<p>Not long ago, former President George W Bush sought to instill panic in the US by telling us a minimum of 200,000 people will die from the avian flu pandemic, but it could be as bad as 2 million deaths in this country alone.</p>
	<p>This hoax was then used to justify the immediate purchase of 80 million doses of Tamiflu, a worthless drug that in no way shape or form treats the avian flu, but actually contributes to the virus having more lethal mutations.   So the U.S. placed an order for 20 million doses of this worthless drug at a price of $100 per dose. That comes to a staggering $2 billion.  Gilead 10 years ago gave Roche the exclusive rights to market and sell Tamiflu.  Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was made the chairman of Gilead in 1997.  Since Rumsfeld holds major portions of stock in Gilead, he handsomely profited from the scare tactics of his own government that was being used to justify the purchase of $2 billion of Tamiflu.</p>
	<p>Last summer the Obama administration stated that it was pushing ahead with plans for a government-funded vaccination campaign, and urged public-health officials across the U.S. to prepare for the potentially massive effort.  U.S. government officials and manufacturers prepared to produce as many as 600 million doses of vaccine against the new H1N1 virus.  The drug companies were assured of unprecedented profits this the Fort Detrick lab created H1N1 virus thanks to Mr Barry Obama and his fear mongering for profit campaign.    </p>
	<p>A new book from veteran physician Dr. Nortin Hadler of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill questions the health scares propagated to the public by the health care system. Entitled &#8220;The Last Well Person: How to Stay Well Despite the Health Care System, Hadler states that &#8220;wellness&#8221; has become an unreachable achievement, thanks to medical institutions doggedly discerning every human imperfection as a symptom of disease.</p>
	<p>&#8226; According to Hadler, the medical profession has taken every step to make Americans believe they are subject to risks to their health.</p>
	<p>&#8226; &#8220;No infant can simply be fussy and no child can simply be fidgety, obstreperous, or below average in performance. We are told that all these are symptoms of disease, or harbingers,&#8221; Hadler wrote in an editorial posted on the web site ABCNews.com</p>
	<p>&#8226; Hadler says that the health industry has &#8220;medicalized&#8221; the idea of well-being, pushing the idea that everyone holds a burden of having something wrong with them.</p>
	<p>The medical industry knows that to generate more profits, it must &#8220;medicalize&#8221; normal life experiences by turning every emotion, behavior, habit and mood into a &#8220;disease&#8221; requiring chemical treatment.  Direct-to-consumer drug advertising plays a crucial role in the marketing and propaganda of fictitious diseases. Without television, magazine and newspaper ads, drug companies would not be able to so strongly influence consumers into thinking they have diseases when they really don&#8217;t.

			<title>The cancer cure research scam.  The pharmaceutical industry survives and thrives by perpetually searching for The Cure but intentionally never finding it.</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100307-073407</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p>We are so technologically advanced that we can: fly like a bird aboard 400 ton 747 Jumbo Jets miles above the Earth, put a man on the Moon, navigate a Rover on the surface of Mars from a control room on Earth, build communication devices that fit in the palm of our hands that can be taken with us wherever we go,  see the smallest micro-organism in the World with powerful microscopes, build robots that will soon mimic humans in every way, yet we still have not found a cure for cancer and every disease known to man.  Come on, who are they kidding?  For over 100 years thousands have supposedly graduated top of their class from the most renowned and respected medical schools from around the World.  Each and every year thousands of graduates enter into a career in medical research.  You mean to tell me that thousands of doctors, nurses and lab technicians have not been able to find a cure even with the most advanced medical research equipment money can buy at their disposal? Decade after decade and $billions spent each year on cancer cure research and still no cure.  Are you all that naive or just plain stupid?  </p>
	<p>The truth is we&#8217;ve been scammed and are being scammed.  There is a cure for all known diseases but we haven&#8217;t been told because the cure will result in the quick death of all major pharmaceutical companies, of hospitals, cancer treatment clinics and specialists and health insurance companies.  No profitable business will ever try to eliminate itself. The cancer establishment, a cartel consisting of the NIH, the NCI, the American Cancer Society, the FDA, the AMA and the pharmaceutical industry survives and thrives by perpetually searching for &#8220;The Cure&#8221; but never finding it. Effective prevention of cancer, or cheap, effective cures (both exist, but are being suppresed) are anathema to its own survival instincts. This multi-billion dollar conglomerate is simply not interested in finding a cure, unless that cure consists of patented drugs that can be sold at a premium and patients need to take it for the rest of their lives.  You see there is no profit if you reveal to the World that a cure for cancer and other diseases and illnesses has been found.  Drug companies would be forced into bankruptcy as everyone has been cured.  No one would need health insurance to pay for very expensive health care and treatment if a cure was revealed.  Advertising to get you to give them your hard earned money for a cure research would not exist the moment a cure was revealed.  No more $billion in research grants.  No more lucrative research careers.  No more bio-terrorism attacks like the swine flu pandemic. </p>
	<p>The fact is that the pharmaceutical industry is the most profitable industry in the US. Profit margins in the industry in 2000 were four times the average of Fortune 500 companies. And the compensation packages for drug company executives are lavish.  The federal government has given the industry generous packages of tax credits, massive taxpayer-funded R&#038;D support by the National Institutes of Health, and other federal agencies, subsidized loans from the Export-Import Bank of the United States, and R&#038;D monopoly patent extensions.                 </p>
	<p>In 1998, the US Government spent $2.4 billion on cancer research, and pharma lobbyists and doctors have been asking for huge increases every year since. But research spending is nothing compared to profits made from ineffective and dangerous treatments. Dr. Ralph Moss stated in his book Questioning Chemotherapy:</p>
	<p>&#8220;The economics of cancer treatment are astounding. Cancer treatment is close to $100 billion annually ($100,000,000,000). Looking from another angle: the Bristol Myers company owns patents on twelve of the nearly forty &#8220;FDA-approved&#8221; chemotherapeutic drugs. The president, past president, chairman of the board, and a couple of the directors of Bristol Myers all hold positions on the board at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.   </p>
	<p>Every decision, that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and the American Medical Association (AMA) make, will ultimately result in billions of dollars in profits for the drug industry. The management of each of these organizations is intertwined with the drug industry to the point that there are enormous conflicts of interest.</p>
	<p>Every year the drug industry has several drugs recalled because people are dying, hundreds of thousands have been killed to date, and nothing is said or done by  the Food and Drug Administration, the Federal Trade Commission, and the American Medical Association, federal organizations who are supposed to protect the public</p>
	<p>From an economic perspective, the American Cancer Industry has the perfect business model. Chemical and pharmaceutical companies make immense profits from selling carcinogenic chemicals that enter, or are intentionally put into, our food, water, air, clothing or housing, then rake in more profits by manufacturing and selling expensive, inefficient and toxic designer drugs to treat the cancers and other diseases promoted by their own products, not to mention the additional drugs to mask and make the side-effects of the primary drugs bearable. To make the scam perfect, they let the taxpayer fund their research into new ways to not cure cancer while still selling the resulting drugs at obscene profits. To ensure that the public remains blissfully unaware of the true facts concerning cancer, they have set up front groups like the American Cancer Society to spread disinformation in the name of cancer education, while the FDA, is fighting an aggressive turf war to keep effective alternative treatments off the market. </p>
	<p>Daniel Haley, a former member of the New York State Legislature and author of the book Politics in Healing: The Suppression and Manipulation of American Medicine reveals one instance of a cover-up and efforts by the American Medical Association to suppress any and all cancer cures.  The story relates that:</p>
	<p>&#8220;<em>Just how far we have regressed in treating cancer becomes apparent when we review the story of Dr. William F. Koch (pronounced &#8220;Coke&#8221;) of Detroit, who was curing cancer with one shot in the 1930s and 40s. Koch had theorized that cancer formed as a result of a metabolic defect brought on by a toxin or injury and related to an inability to burn off such toxins. His anti-toxin, glyoxylide, made use of an oxidizing catalyst to burn off toxins that might otherwise become cancerous. This writer personally knows one such former patient. Now 50 and quite healthy, she had been diagnosed&#8211;at the tender age of three months&#8211;with terminal liver cancer. It took just one shot of Dr. Koch&#8217;s glyoxylide to cause the tumor to disappear in six months</em>.&#8221;</p>
	<p>The Journal Of the American Medical Association denounced Koch as a quack after he refused to sell his protocol to the AMA. At the instigation of the AMA, the FDA put him on trial in 1942 and 1946. They did not succeed in getting a conviction, but neither could Dr. Koch secure an acquittal: in the atmosphere of the U.S. struggle against the Nazis, some jurors could not conceive that their government was lying. When the FDA finally dismissed the indictment in 1948, Dr. Koch lost little time moving to Brazil before the FDA could trump up another indictment. He never revealed his manufacturing process. Dr. Koch&#8217;s one-shot cancer therapy died with him. Today researchers have shown the value of many oxygen-yielding protocols (such as hydrogen peroxide and ozone therapy) for treating various disease processes. &#8221; </p>
	<p>In a free market, where non-toxic therapies can openly compete with toxic therapies, and information is not suppressed, consumers will make informed choices. This is exactly what the pharmaceutical companies don&#8217;t want. Dancing to their tune, the FDA ferociously keeps off the market effective, nontoxic therapies that might provide formidable competition for patented, and often toxic, pharmaceutical drugs. By keeping these therapies off the market, the FDA is not protecting the public from harm. It is protecting the pharmaceutical companies from effective competition. An average of 65% to 75% of FDA employees work for drug companies upon their retirement.

<em>&#8220;Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.&#8221; &#8212;George W Bush Washington, D.C., Aug. 5, 2004</em></p>
	<p>Al Qaeda didn&#8217;t take away the US people&#8217;s rights and freedoms the US government did that. Al Qaeda didn&#8217;t bankrupt the US the US government did with their $trillion embezzlement of US Tax dollars. Al Qaeda didn&#8217;t create a housing bubble and then started taking away your homes through orchestrated foreclosures. Al Qaeda didn&#8217;t cause millions of Americans to lose their jobs the US government did. Al Qaeda is not a terrorist organization your government is. A clear and present danger exists in the US today and the government is the only real terrorist threat to the rights, freedoms and prosperity of the US people.</p>
	<p>The Iraqi people, the Afghan people, bin Laden, the Taliban, Al Qaeda and Muslim extremists are not your enemy. The US government is your enemy. The US government took away your rights and freedoms.  No terrorist organization robbed the American people of their inalienable rights and freedoms the US government did with the passing of their unpatriotic Patriot Act.  <a href="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/F?c107:4:./temp/~c1076MjbMM:e0:">The Bush and Obama governments&#8217; Patriot Act was first drafted not after the attacks of September 11, 2001 but during the Clinton administration by the &#8220;<em>One Hundred Seventh Congress of the United States of America AT THE FIRST SESSION Begun and held at the City of Washington on Wednesday, the third day of January, two thousand and one. (<strong>January 3, 2001</strong>)</em>&#8220;</a>  An Act To deter and punish terrorist acts in the United States and around the world, to enhance law enforcement investigatory tools, and for other purposes. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled ~ Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT ACT) Act of 2001.  The US government then formed the Nazi Gestapo style Department of Homeland Security to act as the &#8220;Secret State Police&#8221; of the United States government ~ to investigate and spy on US citizens, to arrest and hold US citizens indefinitely without due process of the law for opposing the criminal actions of the US government, to protect the US government from US citizens exercising their right to demand their government adhere to the rule of law of the United States of America - the US Constitution, and to strip the US people of their inalienable rights and freedoms guaranteed to them by the United States Constitution. </p>
	<p>The US government illegally spies on you. The US government tortures people. The US government kidnaps and imprisons people without due process of the law. The US government attacks and injures you whenever you exercise you right to free speech and legally petition your government for change. The US government robbed you and gave $trillions to the bankers of the privately owned Federal Reserve banks. The US government was the one who infected you with the swine flu virus.</p>
	<p>According to a report issued by the US Department of State on April 2004, thirty-five (35) American citizens died from international terrorism world-wide in 2003.- The extent of the harm to U.S. citizens does not either warrant a &#8220;war on terrorism&#8221;: In the same year as 35 U.S. citizens were killed for political reasons world-wide, 16,503 persons were murdered and 93,433 persons were raped in the U.S. alone (FBI statistics). This alone demonstrates that the motive for the &#8220;war on terrorism&#8221; is not the number of victims nor their identities. During the same year 5 million people died from smoking related illness. Which is a bigger threat to life?</p>
	<p>JFK - &#8220;Let us call a truce to terror. Let us invoke the blessings of peace. And as we build an international capacity to keep peace, let us join in dismantling the national capacity to wage war.&#8221;</p>
	<p>JFK - &#8220;We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.&#8221;</p>
	<p>JFK - &#8220;Our duty as a party is not to our party alone, but to the nation and, indeed, to all mankind. Our duty is not merely the preservation of political power but the preservation of peace and freedom.&#8221;</p>
	<p><strong>United States Declaration of Independence</strong></p>
	<p>&#8220;We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.&#8221;

			<title>Independence Day 2010</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100304-203042</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p>The United States Constitution declares exactly what government is permitted to do on behalf of the United States people.  Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas declared, &#8220;The Constitution is not neutral. It was designed to take the government off the backs of people.&#8221; </p>
	<p>President Andrew Johnson said:</p>
	<p>   <em> &#8220;Outside of the Constitution we have no legal authority more than private citizens, and within it we have only so much as that instrument gives us. This broad principle limits all our functions and applies to all subjects.&#8221;</em></p>
	<p>The United States Declaration of Independence is a statement adopted by the Second Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, which announced that the thirteen American colonies then at war with Great Britain were now independent states, and thus no longer a part of the British Empire. Written primarily by Thomas Jefferson, the Declaration is a formal explanation of why Congress had voted on July 2 to declare independence from Great Britain, more than a year after the outbreak of the American Revolutionary War.</p>
	<p>After finalizing the text on July 4, Congress issued the Declaration of Independence.  The Declaration justified the independence of the United States by listing colonial grievances against King George III, and by asserting certain natural rights, including a right of revolution (the right or duty of the subjects of a nation to overthrow  a government that acts against their common interests).  Its stature grew over the years, particularly the second sentence, a sweeping statement of human rights:</p>
	<p>    <em>We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain <strong>unalienable Rights</strong>, that among these are <strong>Life, <span style="text-decoration: underline">Liberty</span> and the pursuit of Happiness</strong>.</em></p>
	<p>This sentence has been called &#8220;one of the best-known sentences in the English language&#8221; and &#8220;the most potent and consequential words in American history&#8221;. The passage has often been used to promote the rights of marginalized groups, and came to represent for many people a moral standard for which the United States should strive. This view was greatly influenced by Abraham Lincoln, who considered the Declaration to be the foundation of his political philosophy, and promoted the idea that the Declaration is a statement of principles through which the United States Constitution should be interpreted.</p>
	<p>The first sentence of the Declaration asserts as a matter of Natural law the ability of a people to assume political independence, and acknowledges that the grounds for such independence must be reasonable, and therefore explicable, and ought to be explained.</p>
	<p>    <em>When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature&#8217;s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.</em></p>
	<p>The next section of the Declaration, the famous preamble, includes the ideas and ideals that were principles of the Declaration. It is also an assertion of what is known as the &#8220;right of revolution&#8221;: that is, <em>people have certain rights, and <strong>when a government violates these rights</strong>, <strong>the people have the right to &#8220;<span style="text-decoration: underline">alter or abolish</span>&#8221; that government</strong></em>.</p>
	<p>    <em>We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain <strong>unalienable Rights</strong>, that among these are <strong>Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness</strong>. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That <strong>whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government</strong>, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But <strong>when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, <span style="text-decoration: underline">it is their right, it is their duty</span>, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.</strong></em></p>
	<p>The next section of the Declaration is a list of charges against King George which aim to demonstrate that he has violated the colonists&#8217; rights and is therefore unfit to be their ruler:</p>
	<p>    <em>Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.</p>
	<p>        He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.</p>
	<p>        He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.</p>
	<p>        He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.</p>
	<p>        He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.</p>
	<p>        He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.</p>
	<p>        He has refused for a long time, after such disolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.</p>
	<p>        He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.</p>
	<p>        He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.</p>
	<p>        He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.</p>
	<p>        He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.</p>
	<p>        He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.</p>
	<p>        He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.</p>
	<p>        He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:</p>
	<p>            For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:</p>
	<p>            For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:</p>
	<p>            For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:</p>
	<p>            For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:</p>
	<p>            For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:</p>
	<p>            For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences</p>
	<p>            For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:</p>
	<p>            For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:</p>
	<p>            For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.</p>
	<p>        He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.</p>
	<p>        He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.</p>
	<p>        He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty &#038; perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.</p>
	<p>        He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.</em></p>
	<p>This long list of charges against King George, which demonstrates that he has violated the colonists&#8217; rights and is therefore unfit to be their ruler also does describe the long list of charges against the present day US government.  When reading the list of charges against King George substitute King George with the administrations of both George W Bush and Barack Hussein Obama.  Do you not see that both Bush and Obama have committed the exact same crimes against the United States people as did King George and are therefore unfit to govern the people.  </p>
	<p>The current situation in the US declares that the present US government is unfit to govern the US people.   Evidence that the the leaders of the US people are unfit to govern is presented in the statistics from the US Debt Clock.  Unfit because 38 million US people now rely solely on food stamps to keep them alive.  That is more than the entire population of Canada (33 million) who no longer can afford to feed themselves.   24 million of a 138 million workforce are now unemployed.  To put the US unemployment numbers into perspective, Canada&#8217;s entire workforce is approximately 18 million.  $12 trillion national debt.  $7 trillion given to the privately owned US Federal Reserve banks despite only $1.5 trillion being actually authorized by the US Congress (meaning the Bush and Obama governments have embezzled or money laundered $5.5 trillion).  Debt to GDP ratio at a crippling 87%.  </p>
	<p>This evidence gives the United States people their right, their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

			<title>Unpasteurized milk, many people use to drink it regularly and were not infected by any kind of diseases</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100304-194247</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/milk.jpg" alt="milk.jpg" title="milk.jpg"  class="center" width="219" height="300" /> </p>
	<p>Milk has many qualities which has been proven beneficial for the health. Milk in the unpasteurized form is referred to as raw milk. Raw milk has several benefits.  It is milk in its purest form and hence has more health benefits than pasteurized milk. In the earlier days, raw milk was used as a medicine for curing many disorders. Since, many people use to drink it regularly, most them were not infected by any kind of diseases. But, as time has passed, many of us have forgotten about the various raw milk benefits.</p>
	<p>This rich probiotic food is a highly nutritious beverage that has nourished man and created strong, able bodies for thousands of years. It has even been used to heal the body. Unpasteurized milk contains lactic-acid-producing bacteria that protect against pathogens.  Compared to industrial milk, dairy foods from grass-fed cows contain more omega-3 fats, more vitamin A, and more beta-carotene and other antioxidants. </p>
	<p><strong>Unpasteurized Milk Benefits</strong></p>
	<p>Raw milk has different kinds of nutrients which make it a balanced food. It also contains all the 8 different types of nutrients. This milk is also rich in proteins. Another benefit of raw milk is that it is easy to digest. It is also known to improve the absorption and assimilation of iron. It helps in the assimilation of body building factors like calcium. Raw milk stimulates the immune system and can alleviate medical conditions like asthma, autism and digestive disorders. The raw milk also consists of anti-bacterial and anti-microbial properties. Raw milk lowers the pH level and prevents the growth of the microorganisms. This even kills the pathogens and bacterias thus, prevents the risk of food borne illnesses.</p>
	<p>Researchers at the Institute of Social and Preventive Medicine at the University of Basel in Switzerland followed nearly 15,000 children ages 5 to 15 in Austria, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Sweden, and Germany from 2001 to 2004. The study, sponsored by the European Union and published in 2007, found that children who drank raw milk had a lower incidence of asthma and allergies.</p>
	<p>Spokesman Michael Herndon said the FDA advises against the consumption of raw milk because it is a welcoming host to pathogens such as listeria and salmonella. On its website, the FDA says there is no truth to the assertions that raw milk can cure allergies. The agency says children, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems are particularly susceptible to the food-borne illnesses that can result from drinking unpasteurized milk.</p>
	<p>Raw milk supporters see things differently. They say that although pasteurization kills dangerous bacteria and pathogens such as E. coli and listeria, it also destroys beneficial bacteria, enzymes, and raw fats that boost the immune system and aid digestion. Pasteurization usually goes hand in hand with homogenization, the process that breaks the fat globules in milk into smaller particles. The dairy industry homogenizes milk to prevent the cream from rising and to create a more uniform product, but raw milk advocates say that further corrupts the nutritional value of milk.</p>
	<p>Not only is real (unpasteurized) milk a delight to your taste buds, but it is also very healthy for you - and yes for adults too!  Butter and cream from grass-fed cows are a rare source of the unique and beneficial fat conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). According to the Journal of Dairy Science, the CLA in grass-fed butterfat is 500 percent greater than the butterfat of cows eating a typical dairy ration, which usually contains grain, corn silage, and soybeans.</p>
	<p>CLA prevents heart disease, (probably by reducing atherosclerosis), fights cancer, and builds lean muscle.  CLA aids weight loss in several ways: by decreasing the amount of fat stored after eating, increasing the rate at which fat cells are broken down, and reducing the number of fat cells.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Butterfat helps the body digest the protein, and bones require saturated fats in particular to lay down calcium. The cream contains the vital fat-soluble and natural vitamins A and D. Without vitamin D, less than 10 percent of dietary calcium is absorbed. &#8230;Skim milk - especially industrial skim - is an inferior source of both. Skim and 2 percent milk must by law, be fortified with synthetic vitamin A and synthetic vitamin D.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Glycosphingolipids are fats that protect against gastrointestinal infections, especially in the very young children and the elderly generation.</p>
	<p>According to Dr. Mary Enig, World Leading Expert on the Biochemistry of Food and Fat, and Sally Fallon, President of The Weston A. Price Foundation, and authors of Eat Fat, Lose Fat: The Healthy Alternative to Trans Fats, &#8220;Children who drink skim milk and thus don&#8217;t get the benefits of glycosphingolipids, have diarrhea at rates three to five times greater than children who drink whole milk.</p>
	<p>The common denominator among all these foods is cholesterol, which the body needs to produce a variety of steroids that protect against cancer, heart disease, and mental illness.</p>
	<p>We cannot let our fear over tainted milk, and appreciation for the conveniences that pasteurization provide, stop us from bringing this valuable food source safely back to more people. This precious body building and healing food which supports our gastrointestinal function, has basically vanished from the North American landscape.  Fresh whole unpasteurized milk has been out of circulation for most North American people since 1949.  It is time for the excellent benefits of raw milk consumption to be communicated to everyone. Anyone who so desires, should be able to partake in the bountiful blessings of this perfectly created, healthy food from mother nature.  Traditional non-pasteurized dairy beverage creates better health. Also, the health costs from its absence in our diets are far too great. We must bring back this ancient staple food that has safely nourished peoples for thousands of years. </p>
	<p>Full-fat raw milk from pasture-fed cows has been used to treat:</p>
	<p>    * Tuberculosis<br />
    * Psoriasis<br />
    * Nervous system disorders<br />
    * Cardiovascular disease<br />
    * Renal disease<br />
    * Hypertension<br />
    * Gastrointestinal distress<br />
    * Respiratory ailments<br />
    * Asthma</p>
	<p>J.E. Crewe, M.D., the co-founder of the Mayo Clinic, wrote that four weeks on nothing but raw milk reversed most chronic disease.</p>
	<p>It&#8217;s remarkable how we now flock to buy foods with all those raw milk rich probiotics and nutrients added back in.  We wouldn&#8217;t have to buy expensive supplements or add them back into dairy products if we didn&#8217;t take all that time to remove them in the first place, with the nutrient robbing pasteurization.  </p>
	<p>Under the Health Promotion and Protection Act, it&#8217;s illegal to sell, offer to sell, deliver or distribute raw milk in Ontario.   Why make it illegal when the benefits outweigh the risks?  DFO chairman Bruce Saunders. &#8220;It&#8217;s pure myth that raw milk offers any health advantages.&#8221; If raw milk is so dangerous then why does every dairy farmer in Canada drink their own milk without pasteurizing it and they&#8217;re not dying off.  What is the government scared of?  Why would something so natural and pure as raw milk be labeled as illegal and people be treated as criminals for selling or distributing something that has benefited mankind for thousands of year?  Why are breast feed (raw milk) babies more likely to be more healthier throughout their lives than bottled feed (pasteurized milk) babies?  The answer is clear.  Raw milk offers many health advantages and is essential for the proper development of human babies and all mammals.  Raw milk, either breast milk or cow&#8217;s udder milk, is the most essential food and hence the most health beneficial food on Earth.  Pasteurized milk health benefits is the myth.       </p>

			<title>US government scared to death of withdrawing its armies from Iraq and Afghanistan.</title>

			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/US-liberty.jpg" alt="US-liberty.jpg" title="US-liberty.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="459" /><br />
<em>The Statue of Liberty represents the triumph for democratic society over tyranny and corruption, and because of its location in New York&#8217;s harbor it represents the hopes and dreams of anyone from anywhere who wants to come to America in search of a better life.  The Statue of Liberty is one of the most recognized symbols of American freedom anywhere.  Thomas Jefferson enshrines this vernacular in the Declaration of Independence, describing our inalienable rights in the preservation of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Patrick Henry cried &#8220;Give me liberty or give me death!&#8221; James Madison proclaimed, &#8220;The loss of liberty at home is to be charged to the provisions against danger, real or imagined, from abroad.&#8221; Benjamin Franklin declared, &#8220;Where liberty is, there is my country.&#8221;</em>  </p>
	<p>When Obama was campaigning for the presidency of the United States he promised to end the wars and bring the troops home.  It was this promise that gave him the presidency.  Then why break the promise that gave him and the Democrats the White House?  Fear.   The entire US government is afraid of its own army.  It is afraid of withdrawing its armies because of what both the Republicans and the Democrats did to the United States of America.  Both the Republicans and the Democrats destroyed the United States of America.  Both the Republicans and the Democrats are responsible for bankrupting the United States of America with unjustified wars and looting the US treasury with $trillion gifts to the bankers of the privately owned US Federal Reserve.  The US government and the bankers of the US Federal Reserve robbed the United States people.  The US government and the US Federal Reserve took away the homes and jobs of the working class people of the United States of America.  Iraq, Afghanistan, the Taliban and Al Qaeda did not take away the homes, jobs and $trillions in tax dollars belonging to the US people, the US government and the bankers of the US Federal Reserve did. </p>
	<p>The people are arming themselves for another war but this time its going to be on US soil.  Gun sales in the United States have sky rocketed since Obama became president and took up the same anti-American policies of George W Bush.  It is the group of people who are buying most of the guns that is scaring the US government.  The families of the soldiers who are currently serving in Iraq and Afghanistan are buying high power rifles and handguns in large numbers.  US intelligence believes the soldiers and their stateside families are arming themselves for when they return to the United States.  The US soldiers are apprised of the situation back home.  They know that their families have lost their jobs, their homes and their life savings.  The US soldiers know that while their government sent them off to fight a phantom enemy their government was looting their homes and their bank accounts.  The US soldiers know that their homes, their money and their dreams are gone, thanks to the US government and the bankers of the privately owned US Federal Reserve.  The US people are arming themselves to take back what is rightfully theirs.  The US people are arming themselves to take back their freedom.  The US people are arming themselves to take back their Independence.  </p>
	<p>It is the families of 1/2 a million US soldiers arming themselves that the US government fear for their lives.  The US government is certain that the US people are arming themselves, not for a civil war but for an armed fight to regain their independence.  The US government are certain that they, the US government, are the US peoples&#8217; target and that is why Obama has asked and Germany has agreed to provide 18,000 German troops, to fight and kill US civilians, police and soldiers on US soil. In a move showing the rapidly deteriorating conditions in the United States, where news reports are showing nearly 1 out of 5 Americans are now jobless and another 20 million have been thrown from their homes into the street, German Chancellor Angela Merkel has ordered her Federal Ministry of Defense to ready over 18,000 Bundeswehr troops for &#8220;immediate&#8221; redeployment to the United States of America.  Merkel reportedly received an &#8220;urgent&#8221; plea from Obama for these German troops to keep an expected American revolution from occurring during the expected bank failures set to occur in the US in late April and early May.  German troops will once again be killing US soldiers, only this time the US soldiers and US people will be fighting them on US soil.  But like before the US people and their US soldiers will easily defeat the Germans - 18,000 against over 300 million people determined to be free again.  It&#8217;s probably a very good time for the people in both the Republican and the Democratic parties to start running.  Independence Day is coming again to the United States and the US government is their target.

			<title>Want To Prevent Or Cure Cancer?</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100224-211616</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/b12.jpg" alt="b12.jpg" title="b12.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="248" /><br />
<em>Fighting, preventing and curing cancer is as simple as eating the right foods.  Eating healthy foods is also a cure for skyrocketing health care costs.  </em>   </p>
	<p>To prevent or cure cancer you need to examine the work of Dr. Max Gerson. This physician, who died in 1959, had a 50% cure rate, even on far-advanced cancer cases, but he didn&#8217;t use surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy.</p>
	<p>He realized that cancer was a symptom of disturbed metabolism; that treating the symptom was rarely efficacious; and to get at the underlying cause the first step was to detoxify the whole body.</p>
	<p>Gerson understood that liver activity was tied into all aspects of human physiology. Not only does it filter out toxins from the body, it transforms them so they can enter into the bile ducts, and can thus be eliminated with the bile.</p>
	<p>The liver also works interdependently with the pancreas and stomach in the production of trypsin, pepsin, and lipase, the digestive enzymes. The liver has many, many more very important functions. One of them is the reactivation of oxidizing enzymes that are at a low level of function in cancer patients.</p>
	<p>Gerson knew that <strong>cancer cells thrive in a low oxygen, low potassium condition</strong>&#8212;an anaerobic environment. When he took away the conditions that cancer needs to continue to live, <strong>by providing the malignant cells with a high level of potassium and oxidizing enzymes to absorb, the cells died by themselves</strong>.</p>
	<p>He observed that in advanced cases of cancer the liver went to hell in a hand basket. Therefore he had to restore the function of the liver&#8211;the tissue and the function of the liver.</p>
	<p>To that end he gave his patients liver injections, and as most of them needed an increase in their red blood cell count, he added vitamin B12. They received 3 cc of crude liver extract together with 100 mcg of B12.</p>
	<p>When Gerson learned that our fruit and vegetables no longer provide a normal content of the mineral potassium, and not enough of the oxidizing enzymes, he looked for the best source of potassium in the best composition and the best supply of oxidizing enzymes.</p>
	<p>That source turned out to be calves liver!  Don&#8217;t like liver?  Other good sources of potassium include bananas, citrus juices (such as orange juice), avocados, cantaloupes, tomatoes, potatoes, lima beans, flounder, salmon, cod, chicken, and other meats.</p>
	<p>He gave his patients freshly pressed calves liver juice, combined with equal parts of carrots.</p>
	<p>He took &#189; pound fresh calves liver (not frozen) and &#189; pound of carrots to make one glass of 200 cc (approx. 8 oz.) of fresh juice.</p>
	<p>Quoting Dr. Gerson: &#8220;The patients, the far advanced cases, get two glasses a day, even three glasses, and they like it!&#8221;</p>
	<p>Calves liver turns out to be a mineral accumulator, and cobalt is one of the minerals it accumulates; and this was key to Gerson&#8217;s success.  Foods containing cobalt include meat, milk, eggs, figs and cabbage.</p>
	<p><strong>Humans and all vertebrates require the mineral cobalt, the center of the vitamin B12 molecule</strong>.</p>
	<p>Cobalt activates several metabolic enzymes. It is needed for the production of thyroid hormone and for myelin, the insulating material found around nerves. We require cobalt for protein, fat and carbohydrate metabolism, and the production of DNA and RNA, the body&#8217;s genetic material.</p>
	<p>Indigenous bacteria manufacture the B12 molecule in the human small intestine, primary site of B12 absorption, provided they have cobalt and certain other nutrients to work with. The B12 is stored in the liver and subsequently cycled to bone marrow for red blood cell production..</p>
	<p>Sadly, cobalt has been disappearing from the soil, and thus our diet, for decades. Under deficient conditions, we draw down the liver&#8217;s cobalt-containing B12 reserves.</p>
	<p>In Gerson&#8217;s own words:</p>
	<p>&#8220;What we have to do in cancer&#8211;a degenerative, deficiency disease&#8211;is to refill the organs which are empty and poisoned.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Gerson cleaned out his patients and, in his own way, reintroduced them to the diet of their healthy ancestors&#8212;a diet dense with minerals&#8212;that refilled their organs. And he had proof of this.</p>
	<p>His proof of the pudding, so to speak, came from taking tiny tissue samples from the liver by liver punctures. As time passed and patients recovered, their livers showed microscopically and chemically that recovery had taken place. Cobalt content, as well as that of potassium and iron increased.</p>
	<p>He had given the body the nutrients it needed to mount a powerful immune response to seek and destroy cancer cells throughout the blood, lymph, organs, and glands.

			<title>Major cities flowing with billions of liters of renewable fuel.</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100221-084904</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/wastewater.jpg" alt="wastewater.jpg" title="wastewater.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="243" /><br />
<em>Black water can very easily be converted into a renewable fuel source for every major city around the World.  No more expensive drilling for fuel deposits.  No more US waging wars of aggression to steal control of the last remaining oil and natural gas.  No more Exxon Mobil oil spill disasters. </em>  </p>
	<p>It is possible for cities to produce their own energy fuel supply as well as be eco friendly.  The infrastructure is already there and the fuel is already being pumped through the cities.   What is it that will provide cities with fuel and at the same time drastically clean up the environment?  The fuel source is free  for the taking and is renewable.   The answer to a major city&#8217;s energy needs is sewage.  </p>
	<p>Currently Ontario cities pump billions of liters of untreated sewage into the Great Lakes every year. The main reason for pumping raw sewage into the Great Lakes is a financial reason.  Before now cities saw sewage as worthless.  It costs $millions to treat sewage and some cities just don&#8217;t have the budget to treat all of the sewage.  &#8220;Millions of Ontarians and their kids, drink, bathe, and eat food grown with Great Lakes water yet cities are to this day pumping billions of liters of &#8220;untreated&#8221; sewage into them.  The answer to the cities needs both for energy and water treatment is treating the sewage as a fuel source.</p>
	<p>How can sewage be used as a fuel source to say generate electricity for use in the cities to power street cars, lights, air conditioners, home appliances and business computers and machines? As unappealing as it may seem sewage can cut greenhouse gases, help cleanup water supplies and add a new source of green and endlessly renewable fuel. Left on its own to decay, waste pumped from septic systems (known as septage) produce methane gas (a powerful greenhouse gas in itself) and carbon dioxide, the most popularized greenhouse gas. The result is steady supply of methane that can be used directly as fuel or mixed with natural gas for pipeline distribution. (Natural gas is mostly methane. The mix is relatively easy.) Septic waste could become a valuable commodity since it could be used to make fuel. If septic waste were channeled away from wastewater treatment facilities those facilities would be left to process only gray water, like dirty dish water.</p>
	<p><strong>Methane Fuel Generation From Human Wastes</strong></p>
	<p>- Anaerobic fermentation or digestion is the most promising process for converting organic materials to methane and other gases.<br />
- A simple apparatus can be constructed to produce bio-gas.<br />
- Bio-gas usually contains about 60 to 70 percent methane, 30 to 40 percent carbon dioxide, and other gases.</p>
	<p>Converting organic materials, such as human wastes, to an easily used form of fuel can be accomplished by several methods. The process with the greatest potential is anaerobic fermentation or digestion.</p>
	<p>The extraction of fuel from wastes using anaerobic digestion to produce bio-gas is not new and the general technology is well known. Bio-gas, which is methane and other gases, has been known as swamp gas, sewer gas and fuel gas. Sewage treatment plants generate bio-gas from the sewage sludge as part of the sewage treatment processes. Since sewage treatment is a 24/7 process bio-gas is being produced 24/7 as well.  Today though, the bio-gas is not collected and used as a fuel source for the energy needs of the city, it is all vented.  Using human waste to produce a renewable fuel source is not rocket science.  All you have to know is how the fuel is produced and then you simply make modifications to the sewage processing plants to start producing an unending supply of fuel.</p>
	<p>First off methane is produced by bacteria. The bacteria are anaerobes and operate only in anaerobic environments (no free oxygen). Constant temperature, pH and fresh organic matter promote maximum methane production. Temperatures usually are maintained at approximately 95 degrees F. Other temperatures can be used if held constant. For each 20 degrees F decrease, gas production will be cut approximately one half or will take twice as long. A constant temperature is critical. Temperature variations of as little as 5 degrees F can inhibit the methane-formers enough to cause acid accumulation and possible digester failure.</p>
	<p>Anaerobic digestion is a series of processes in which micro organisms break down biodegradable material in the absence of oxygen and is widely used to treat wastewater.   As part of an integrated waste management system, anaerobic digestion reduces the emission of landfill gas into the atmosphere. Anaerobic digestion is widely used as a renewable energy source because the process produces a methane and carbon dioxide rich biogas suitable for energy production helping replace fossil fuels. Also, the nutrient-rich digestate can be used as fertiliser. The digestion process begins with bacterial hydrolysis of the input materials in order to break down insoluble organic polymers such as carbohydrates and make them available for other bacteria. Acidogenic bacteria then convert the sugars and amino acids into carbon dioxide, hydrogen, ammonia, and organic acids. Acetogenic bacteria then convert these resulting organic acids into acetic acid, along with additional ammonia, hydrogen, and carbon dioxide. Methanogens, finally are able to convert these products to methane and carbon dioxide.</p>
	<p>Anaerobic digestion is a two-part process and each part is performed by a specific group of organisms. The first part is the breakdown of complex organic matter (manure) into simple organic compounds by acid-forming bacteria. The second group of microorganisms, the methane-formers, break down the acids into methane and carbon dioxide. In a properly functioning digester, the two groups of bacteria must balance so that the methane-formers use just the acids produced by the acid-formers.</p>
	<p>Anaerobic digestion facilities have been recognised by the United Nations Development Programme as one of the most useful decentralised sources of energy supply, as they are less capital intensive than large power plants.</p>
	<p>A simple apparatus can produce bio-gas. The amount of the gas and the reliability desired have a great influence on the cost and complexity of the system. A simple batch-loaded digester requires an oxygen-free container, relatively constant temperature, a means of collecting gas, and some mixing. Because methane gas is explosive, appropriate safety precautions are needed.  </p>
	<p>The solution to 2 very major problems (energy needs and waste treatment) that all cities face is already flowing beneath their streets.  The solution is provided by its citizens 24/7 making it the most abundant and endlessly renewable source of fuel. Just redirecting sewage into a digester in urban areas meets the entire Kyoto protocol requirements for North American cities without even considering the natural gas production.  </p>

			<title>Joseph Stack, terrorist or victim of the US fascist tyranny?</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100220-194051</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/plane-crash-austin.jpg" alt="plane-crash-austin.jpg" title="plane-crash-austin.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="288" /> </p>
	<p>At least two people were injured and a third still unaccounted for after Joseph Stack intentionally crashed his plane into an IRS building in Austin, Texas on Thursday February 18, 2010.  </p>
	<p>According to officials at the scene, Stack also lit his house on fire after becoming upset with the IRS.</p>
	<p>Fire and thick black smoke poured from the seven-story Echelon Building. Stack flew the plane out of the Georgetown Municipal Airport about 30 miles north of the crash site in Austin.</p>
	<p>Joseph Stack&#8217;s website may explain his motive for why he flew his plane into the  Echelon Building. It contained (FBI has since ordered it taken down) a long, angry statement where he blames the IRS for the loss of large sums of money in his retirement and savings accounts.  nbGazette.com was able to get a copy of what Stack wrote on his website. </p>
	<p><strong>The Stack Manifesto:</strong></p>
	<p><em>If you&#8217;re reading this, you&#8217;re no doubt asking yourself, &#8220;Why did this have to happen?&#8221;  The simple truth is that it is complicated and has been coming for a long time.  The writing process, started many months ago, was intended to be therapy in the face of the looming realization that there isn&#8217;t enough therapy in the world that can fix what is really broken.  Needless to say, this rant could fill volumes with example after example if I would let it.  I find the process of writing it frustrating, tedious, and probably pointless&#8230; especially given my gross inability to gracefully articulate my thoughts in light of the storm raging in my head.  Exactly what is therapeutic about that I&#8217;m not sure, but desperate times call for desperate measures.</p>
	<p>We are all taught as children that without laws there would be no society, only anarchy.  Sadly, starting at early ages we in this country have been brainwashed to believe that, in return for our dedication and service, our government stands for justice for all.  We are further brainwashed to believe that there is freedom in this place, and that we should be ready to lay our lives down for the noble principals represented by its founding fathers.  Remember? One of these was &#8220;no taxation without representation&#8221;.  I have spent the total years of my adulthood unlearning that crap from only a few years of my childhood.  These days anyone who really stands up for that principal is promptly labeled a &#8220;crackpot&#8221;, traitor and worse.</p>
	<p>While very few working people would say they haven&#8217;t had their fair share of taxes (as can I), in my lifetime I can say with a great degree of certainty that there has never been a politician cast a vote on any matter with the likes of me or my interests in mind.  Nor, for that matter, are they the least bit interested in me or anything I have to say.</p>
	<p>Why is it that a handful of thugs and plunderers can commit unthinkable atrocities (and in the case of the GM executives, for scores of years) and when it&#8217;s time for their gravy train to crash under the weight of their gluttony and overwhelming stupidity, the force of the full federal government has no difficulty coming to their aid within days if not hours?  Yet at the same time, the joke we call the American medical system, including the drug and insurance companies, are murdering tens of thousands of people a year and stealing from the corpses and victims they cripple, and this country&#8217;s leaders don&#8217;t see this as important as bailing out a few of their vile, rich cronies.  Yet, the political &#8220;representatives&#8221; (thieves, liars, and self-serving scumbags is far more accurate) have endless time to sit around for year after year and debate the state of the &#8220;terrible health care problem&#8221;.  It&#8217;s clear they see no crisis as long as the dead people don&#8217;t get in the way of their corporate profits rolling in.</p>
	<p>And justice? You&#8217;ve got to be kidding!</p>
	<p>How can any rational individual explain that white elephant conundrum in the middle of our tax system and, indeed, our entire legal system?  Here we have a system that is, by far, too complicated for the brightest of the master scholars to understand.  Yet, it mercilessly &#8220;holds accountable&#8221; its victims, claiming that they&#8217;re responsible for fully complying with laws not even the experts understand.  The law &#8220;requires&#8221; a signature on the bottom of a tax filing; yet no one can say truthfully that they understand what they are signing; if that&#8217;s not &#8220;duress&#8221; than what is.  If this is not the measure of a totalitarian regime, nothing is.</p>
	<p>How did I get here? </p>
	<p>My introduction to the real American nightmare starts back in the early &#8216;80s.  Unfortunately after more than 16 years of school, somewhere along the line I picked up the absurd, pompous notion that I could read and understand plain English.  Some friends introduced me to a group of people who were having &#8216;tax code&#8217; readings and discussions.  In particular, zeroed in on a section relating to the wonderful &#8220;exemptions&#8221; that make institutions like the vulgar, corrupt Catholic Church so incredibly wealthy.  We carefully studied the law (with the help of some of the &#8220;best&#8221;, high-paid, experienced tax lawyers in the business), and then began to do exactly what the &#8220;big boys&#8221; were doing (except that we weren&#8217;t steeling from our congregation or lying to the government about our massive profits in the name of God).  We took a great deal of care to make it all visible, following all of the rules, exactly the way the law said it was to be done.</p>
	<p>The intent of this exercise and our efforts was to bring about a much-needed re-evaluation of the laws that allow the monsters of organized religion to make such a mockery of people who earn an honest living.  However, this is where I learned that there are two &#8220;interpretations&#8221; for every law; one for the very rich, and one for the rest of us&#8230; Oh, and the monsters are the very ones making and enforcing the laws; the inquisition is still alive and well today in this country.</p>
	<p>That little lesson in patriotism cost me $40,000+, 10 years of my life, and set my retirement plans back to 0.  It made me realize for the first time that I live in a country with an ideology that is based on a total and complete lie.  It also made me realize, not only how naive I had been, but also the incredible stupidity of the American public; that they buy, hook, line, and sinker, the crap about their &#8220;freedom&#8221;&#8230; and that they continue to do so with eyes closed in the face of overwhelming evidence and all that keeps happening in front of them.</p>
	<p>Before even having to make a shaky recovery from the sting of the first lesson on what justice really means in this country (around 1984 after making my way through engineering school and still another five years of &#8220;paying my dues&#8221;), I felt I finally had to take a chance of launching my dream of becoming an independent engineer.</p>
	<p>On the subjects of engineers and dreams of independence, I should digress somewhat to say that I&#8217;m sure that I inherited the fascination for creative problem solving from my father.  I realized this at a very young age.</p>
	<p>The significance of independence, however, came much later during my early years of college; at the age of 18 or 19 when I was living on my own as student in an apartment in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.  My neighbor was an elderly retired woman (80+ seemed ancient to me at that age) who was the widowed wife of a retired steel worker.  Her husband had worked all his life in the steel mills of central Pennsylvania with promises from big business and the union that, for his 30 years of service, he would have a pension and medical care to look forward to in his retirement.  Instead he was one of the thousands who got nothing because the incompetent mill management and corrupt union (not to mention the government) raided their pension funds and stole their retirement.  All she had was social security to live on.</p>
	<p>In retrospect, the situation was laughable because here I was living on peanut butter and bread (or Ritz crackers when I could afford to splurge) for months at a time.  When I got to know this poor figure and heard her story I felt worse for her plight than for my own (I, after all, I thought I had everything to in front of me).  I was genuinely appalled at one point, as we exchanged stories and commiserated with each other over our situations, when she in her grandmotherly fashion tried to convince me that I would be &#8220;healthier&#8221; eating cat food (like her) rather than trying to get all my substance from peanut butter and bread.  I couldn&#8217;t quite go there, but the impression was made.  I decided that I didn&#8217;t trust big business to take care of me, and that I would take responsibility for my own future and myself.</p>
	<p>Return to the early &#8216;80s, and here I was off to a terrifying start as a &#8216;wet-behind-the-ears&#8217; contract software engineer&#8230; and two years later, thanks to the fine backroom, midnight effort by the sleazy executives of Arthur Andersen (the very same folks who later brought us Enron and other such calamities) and an equally sleazy New York Senator (Patrick Moynihan), we saw the passage of 1986 tax reform act with its section 1706.</p>
	<p>For you who are unfamiliar, here is the core text of the IRS Section 1706, defining the treatment of workers (such as contract engineers) for tax purposes. Visit this link for a conference committee report (http://www.synergistech.com/1706.shtml#ConferenceCommitteeReport) regarding the intended interpretation of Section 1706 and the relevant parts of Section 530, as amended. For information on how these laws affect technical services workers and their clients, read our discussion here (http://www.synergistech.com/ic-taxlaw.shtml).</p>
	<p>SEC. 1706. TREATMENT OF CERTAIN TECHNICAL PERSONNEL.</p>
	<p>(a) IN GENERAL &#8211; Section 530 of the Revenue Act of 1978 is amended by adding at the end thereof the following new subsection:</p>
	<p>(d) EXCEPTION. &#8211; This section shall not apply in the case of an individual who pursuant to an arrangement between the taxpayer and another person, provides services for such other person as an engineer, designer, drafter, computer programmer, systems analyst, or other similarly skilled worker engaged in a similar line of work.</p>
	<p>(b) EFFECTIVE DATE. &#8211; The amendment made by this section shall apply to remuneration paid and services rendered after December 31, 1986.</p>
	<p>Note:</p>
	<p>    * &#8220;another person&#8221; is the client in the traditional job-shop relationship.<br />
    * &#8220;taxpayer&#8221; is the recruiter, broker, agency, or job shop.<br />
    * &#8220;individual&#8221;, &#8220;employee&#8221;, or &#8220;worker&#8221; is you.</p>
	<p>Admittedly, you need to read the treatment to understand what it is saying but it&#8217;s not very complicated.  The bottom line is that they may as well have put my name right in the text of section (d).  Moreover, they could only have been more blunt if they would have came out and directly declared me a criminal and non-citizen slave.  Twenty years later, I still can&#8217;t believe my eyes.</p>
	<p>During 1987, I spent close to $5000 of my &#8216;pocket change&#8217;, and at least 1000 hours of my time writing, printing, and mailing to any senator, congressman, governor, or slug that might listen; none did, and they universally treated me as if I was wasting their time.  I spent countless hours on the L.A. freeways driving to meetings and any and all of the disorganized professional groups who were attempting to mount a campaign against this atrocity.  This, only to discover that our efforts were being easily derailed by a few moles from the brokers who were just beginning to enjoy the windfall from the new declaration of their &#8220;freedom&#8221;.  Oh, and don&#8217;t forget, for all of the time I was spending on this, I was loosing income that I couldn&#8217;t bill clients.</p>
	<p>After months of struggling it had clearly gotten to be a futile exercise.  The best we could get for all of our trouble is a pronouncement from an IRS mouthpiece that they weren&#8217;t going to enforce that provision (read harass engineers and scientists).  This immediately proved to be a lie, and the mere existence of the regulation began to have its impact on my bottom line; this, of course, was the intended effect.</p>
	<p>Again, rewind my retirement plans back to 0 and shift them into idle.  If I had any sense, I clearly should have left abandoned engineering and never looked back.</p>
	<p>Instead I got busy working 100-hour workweeks.  Then came the L.A. depression of the early 1990s.  Our leaders decided that they didn&#8217;t need the all of those extra Air Force bases they had in Southern California, so they were closed; just like that.  The result was economic devastation in the region that rivaled the widely publicized Texas S&#038;L fiasco.  However, because the government caused it, no one gave a shit about all of the young families who lost their homes or street after street of boarded up houses abandoned to the wealthy loan companies who received government funds to &#8220;shore up&#8221; their windfall.  Again, I lost my retirement.</p>
	<p>Years later, after weathering a divorce and the constant struggle trying to build some momentum with my business, I find myself once again beginning to finally pick up some speed.  Then came the .COM bust and the 911 nightmare.  Our leaders decided that all aircraft were grounded for what seemed like an eternity; and long after that, &#8216;special&#8217; facilities like San Francisco were on security alert for months.  This made access to my customers prohibitively expensive.  Ironically, after what they had done the Government came to the aid of the airlines with billions of our tax dollars &#8230; as usual they left me to rot and die while they bailed out their rich, incompetent cronies WITH MY MONEY!  After these events, there went my business but not quite yet all of my retirement and savings.</p>
	<p>By this time, I&#8217;m thinking that it might be good for a change.  Bye to California, I&#8217;ll try Austin for a while.  So I moved, only to find out that this is a place with a highly inflated sense of self-importance and where damn little real engineering work is done.  I&#8217;ve never experienced such a hard time finding work.  The rates are 1/3 of what I was earning before the crash, because pay rates here are fixed by the three or four large companies in the area who are in collusion to drive down prices and wages&#8230; and this happens because the justice department is all on the take and doesn&#8217;t give a fuck about serving anyone or anything but themselves and their rich buddies.</p>
	<p>To survive, I was forced to cannibalize my savings and retirement, the last of which was a small IRA.  This came in a year with mammoth expenses and not a single dollar of income.  I filed no return that year thinking that because I didn&#8217;t have any income there was no need.  The sleazy government decided that they disagreed.  But they didn&#8217;t notify me in time for me to launch a legal objection so when I attempted to get a protest filed with the court I was told I was no longer entitled to due process because the time to file ran out.  Bend over for another $10,000 helping of justice.</p>
	<p>So now we come to the present.  After my experience with the CPA world, following the business crash I swore that I&#8217;d never enter another accountant&#8217;s office again.  But here I am with a new marriage and a boatload of undocumented income, not to mention an expensive new business asset, a piano, which I had no idea how to handle.  After considerable thought I decided that it would be irresponsible NOT to get professional help; a very big mistake.</p>
	<p>When we received the forms back I was very optimistic that they were in order.  I had taken all of the years information to Bill Ross, and he came back with results very similar to what I was expecting.  Except that he had neglected to include the contents of Sheryl&#8217;s unreported income; $12,700 worth of it. To make matters worse, Ross knew all along this was missing and I didn&#8217;t have a clue until he pointed it out in the middle of the audit.  By that time it had become brutally evident that he was representing himself and not me.</p>
	<p>This left me stuck in the middle of this disaster trying to defend transactions that have no relationship to anything tax-related (at least the tax-related transactions were poorly documented).  Things I never knew anything about and things my wife had no clue would ever matter to anyone.  The end result is&#8230; well, just look around.</p>
	<p>I remember reading about the stock market crash before the &#8220;great&#8221; depression and how there were wealthy bankers and businessmen jumping out of windows when they realized they screwed up and lost everything.  Isn&#8217;t it ironic how far we&#8217;ve come in 60 years in this country that they now know how to fix that little economic problem; they just steal from the middle class (who doesn&#8217;t have any say in it, elections are a joke) to cover their asses and it&#8217;s &#8220;business-as-usual&#8221;.  Now when the wealthy fuck up, the poor get to die for the mistakes&#8230; isn&#8217;t that a clever, tidy solution.</p>
	<p>As government agencies go, the FAA is often justifiably referred to as a tombstone agency, though they are hardly alone.  The recent presidential puppet GW Bush and his cronies in their eight years certainly reinforced for all of us that this criticism rings equally true for all of the government.  Nothing changes unless there is a body count (unless it is in the interest of the wealthy sows at the government trough).  In a government full of hypocrites from top to bottom, life is as cheap as their lies and their self-serving laws.</p>
	<p>I know I&#8217;m hardly the first one to decide I have had all I can stand.  It has always been a myth that people have stopped dying for their freedom in this country, and it isn&#8217;t limited to the blacks, and poor immigrants.  I know there have been countless before me and there are sure to be as many after.  But I also know that by not adding my body to the count, I insure nothing will change.  I choose to not keep looking over my shoulder at &#8220;big brother&#8221; while he strips my carcass, I choose not to ignore what is going on all around me, I choose not to pretend that business as usual won&#8217;t continue; I have just had enough.</p>
	<p>I can only hope that the numbers quickly get too big to be white washed and ignored that the American zombies wake up and revolt; it will take nothing less.  I would only hope that by striking a nerve that stimulates the inevitable double standard, knee-jerk government reaction that results in more stupid draconian restrictions people wake up and begin to see the pompous political thugs and their mindless minions for what they are.  Sadly, though I spent my entire life trying to believe it wasn&#8217;t so, but violence not only is the answer, it is the only answer.  The cruel joke is that the really big chunks of shit at the top have known this all along and have been laughing, at and using this awareness against, fools like me all along.</p>
	<p>I saw it written once that the definition of insanity is repeating the same process over and over and expecting the outcome to suddenly be different.  I am finally ready to stop this insanity.  Well, Mr. Big Brother IRS man, let&#8217;s try something different; take my pound of flesh and sleep well.</p>

			<title>Charges impending against Canadian government officials for Crimes Against Peace, Genocide, Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100219-203247</link>

<em>Between 48% to 62% of Canadians not only question but oppose our engagement of troops in this illegal <a href="http://untreaty.un.org/cod/avl/ha/da/da.html">war of aggression</a> against the Afghan people.  A war fought not out of self-defense or against terrorism but explicitly for <a href="http://commdocs.house.gov/committees/intlrel/hfa48119.000/hfa48119_0.HTM#2">exploiting the oil and natural gas supplies of the Caspian / Central Asian region</a>.</em></p>
	<p>Evidence is now being collected for use in the 2010 indictments against Canadian Prime Minster Stephen Harper, Defense Minister Peter Gordon MacKay, former Prime Ministers Jean Chrétien and Paul Martin for Crimes Against Peace, Genocide, Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes.  </p>
	<p>The time has come  for all of us to stand up for the rights of our fellow man.  It is time for us to help the people of Afghanistan regain their freedom from the unlawful act of aggression and military occupation by the US, Canada and NATO countries.  The attacks against the US on September 11, 2001 were criminal acts (<a href="http://www1.umn.edu/humanrts/instree/hague1970.html">Unlawful Seizure of Aircrafts</a>) not acts of war.  No foreign state or foreign military attacked the US on September 11, 2001.  The attackers were criminals with the criminal intent to cause harm to the US.  There is absolutely no evidence that Afghanistan took part in the attacks of 9/11.  Not one hijacker was a Afghan citizen nor a Taliban.  Link to FBI list of individuals believed to be the hijackers of the four airliners that crashed on September 11, 2001 is found here - <a href="http://www.fbi.gov/pressrel/pressrel01/092701hjpic.htm">http://www.fbi.gov/pressrel/pressrel01/092701hjpic.htm.</a>  No Afghan military aircraft took part in the attacks.  There is absolutely no link between Afghanistan and the attacks of September 11, 2001.  The US <a href="http://www.fbi.gov/wanted/topten/fugitives/laden.htm">FBI Most Wanted Posted for bin Laden</a> doesn&#8217;t even mention the attacks of September 11, 2001.  That means the US government doesn&#8217;t even have any evidence to link bin Laden to 9/11.  That means the US, Canadian and NATO military attack against Afghanistan is illegal.  That means the US, Canadian and NATO military attack against Afghanistan is an illegal <a href="http://untreaty.un.org/cod/avl/ha/da/da.html">war of aggression</a> - Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes.  </p>

<strong>Canadian Criminal Code</strong></p>
	<p>Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes Act, S.C. 2000, c. 24 - An Act respecting genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes and to implement the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, and to make consequential amendments to other Acts.</p>
	<p>Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes Act, S.C. 2000, c. 24 <a href="http://www.canlii.org/en/ca/laws/stat/sc-2000-c-24/latest/sc-2000-c-24.html">http://www.canlii.org/en/ca/laws/stat/sc-2000-c-24/latest/sc-2000-c-24.html</a> declares:</p>
	<p>6.   (1) Every person who, either before or after the coming into force of this section, commits outside Canada</p>
	<p>(a) genocide,<br />

	<p>Conspiracy, attempt, etc.<br />
(1.1) Every person who conspires or attempts to commit, is an accessory after the fact in relation to, or counsels in relation to, an offence referred to in subsection (1) is guilty of an indictable offence.</p>
	<p>Punishment<br />
(2) Every person who commits an offence under subsection (1) or (1.1)</p>
	<p>(a) shall be sentenced to imprisonment for life, if an intentional killing forms the basis of the offence; and<br />
(b) is liable to imprisonment for life, in any other case.</p>
	<p>Definitions<br />
(3) The definitions in this subsection apply in this section. </p>
	<p>&#8220;<strong>crime against humanity</strong>&#8221; means <strong>murder</strong>, extermination, enslavement, <strong>deportation</strong>, <strong>imprisonment</strong>, <strong>torture</strong>, sexual violence, <strong>persecution</strong> or any <strong>other inhumane act or omission that is <span style="text-decoration: underline">committed against any civilian population or any identifiable group</span></strong> and that, at the time and in the place of its commission, <strong>constitutes a crime against humanity according to customary international law or conventional international law</strong> or by virtue of its being criminal <strong>according to the general principles of law recognized by the community of nations</strong>, whether or not it constitutes a contravention of the law in force at the time and in the place of its commission.</p>
	<p>&#8220;<strong>genocide</strong>&#8221; means an<strong> act or omission committed with intent to destroy, <span style="text-decoration: underline">in whole or in part</span>, <span style="text-decoration: underline">an identifiable group of persons</span></strong>, as such, that at the time and in the place of its commission, constitutes genocide according to customary international law or conventional international law or by virtue of its being criminal <strong>according to the general principles of law recognized by the community of nations</strong>, whether or not it constitutes a contravention of the law in force at the time and in the place of its commission.</p>
	<p>&#8220;<strong>war crime</strong>&#8221; means <strong>an act or omission committed during an armed conflict</strong> that, at the time and in the place of its commission, constitutes a war crime <strong>according to customary international law or conventional international law applicable to armed conflicts</strong>, whether or not it constitutes a contravention of the law in force at the time and in the place of its commission.</p>
	<p>Interpretation &#8212; customary international law<br />
(4) For greater certainty, crimes described in articles 6 and 7 and paragraph 2 of article 8 of the Rome Statute are, as of July 17, 1998, crimes according to customary international law, and may be crimes according to customary international law before that date. This does not limit or prejudice in any way the application of existing or developing rules of international law.</p>
	<p>Interpretation &#8212; crimes against humanity<br />
(5) For greater certainty, the offence of crime against humanity was part of customary international law or was criminal according to the general principles of law recognized by the community of nations before the coming into force of either of the following:</p>
	<p>(a) the Agreement for the prosecution and punishment of the major war criminals of the European Axis, signed at London on August 8, 1945; and</p>
	<p>(b) the Proclamation by the Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers, dated January 19, 1946.</p>
	<p>The US, Canadian and NATO military (armed) attacks against Afghanistan is a violation of US, Canadian and International Law and Treaties.  The attack was and is still illegal as Afghanistan did not attack the US, Canada or any other <a href="http://www.nato.int/cps/en/natolive/official_texts_17120.htm">NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization)</a> nation. </p>
	<p><strong>A war of aggression is a military conflict <span style="text-decoration: underline">waged absent the justification of self-defense</span>.</strong> Waging such a war of aggression is <strong>a crime under the customary international law</strong>.  The International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg, which followed World War II, called the waging of aggressive war &#8220;essentially an evil thing&#8230;to initiate a war of aggression&#8230;is <strong>not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime</strong>, differing only from other <strong>war crimes</strong> in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole.&#8221;  </p>
	<p>In 1945, the London Charter of the International Military Tribunal defined three categories of crimes, including crimes against peace. This definition was first used by Finland to prosecute the political leadership in the War-responsibility trials in Finland. The principles were later known as the Nuremberg Principles.</p>
	<p>In 1950, the <a href="http://deoxy.org/wc/wc-nurem.htm">Nuremberg Tribunal</a> defined <strong>Crimes against Peace</strong>, in Principle 6, specifically Principle VI(a), submitted to the United Nations General Assembly, as:</p>
	<p>    (i) <strong>Planning, preparation, initiation or waging of a war of aggression or a war in violation of international treaties, agreements or assurances</strong>;<br />
    (ii) <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">Participation</span> in a common plan or conspiracy for the accomplishment of any of the acts mentioned under (i)</strong>.    </p>
	<p><strong><a href="http://www.un.org/en/documents/charter/chapter1.shtml">The United Nations Charter</a></strong></p>
	<p>* Article 1: The Purposes of the United Nations are:</p>
	<p>1. To maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace, and to bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace;</p>
	<p>2. To develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples, and to take other appropriate measures to strengthen universal peace;</p>
	<p>* Article 2, paragraph 4</p>
	<p>All Members shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations.</p>
	<p><strong><a href="http://www.nato.int/cps/en/natolive/official_texts_17120.htm">The North Atlantic Treaty</a></strong><br />
Washington D.C. - 4 April 1949</p>
	<p>The Parties to this Treaty reaffirm their faith in the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations and their desire to live in peace with all peoples and all governments.</p>
	<p>They are determined to <strong>safeguard the freedom</strong>, common heritage and civilisation of their peoples, <strong>founded on the principles of democracy, individual liberty and the <span style="text-decoration: underline">rule of law</span></strong>. They seek to promote stability and well-being in the North Atlantic area.</p>
	<p>They are resolved to unite their efforts for <strong>collective defence and for the preservation of peace and security</strong>. They therefore agree to this North Atlantic Treaty :</p>
	<p>Article 1</p>
	<p>The Parties undertake, as set forth in the Charter of the United Nations, <strong>to settle any international dispute in which they may be involved by peaceful means</strong> in such a manner that international peace and security and justice are not endangered, and to <strong>refrain in their international relations from the<span style="text-decoration: underline"> threat or use of force in any manner</span> inconsistent with the purposes of the United Nations.</strong></p>
	<p>Article 2</p>
	<p>The Parties will contribute toward the further development of peaceful and friendly international relations by strengthening their free institutions, by bringing about a better understanding of the principles upon which these institutions are founded, and by promoting conditions of stability and well-being. They will <strong>seek to eliminate conflict in their international economic policies</strong> and will encourage economic collaboration between any or all of them.</p>
	<p>Article 3</p>
	<p>In order more effectively to achieve the objectives of this Treaty, <strong>the Parties, separately and jointly, by means of continuous and effective self-help and mutual aid, will maintain and develop their individual and collective capacity to <span style="text-decoration: underline">resist armed attack</span>.</strong></p>
	<p>According to Canadian and customary international law or conventional international law Prime Minster Stephen Harper, Defense Minister Peter Gordon MacKay, former Prime Ministers Jean Chrétien and Paul Martin are guilty of indictable offences.  Canada&#8217;s military attack against Afghanistan is a war of aggression, a military conflict waged absent the justification of self-defense.  Canada was not attacked by Afghanistan.  Canada are accomplices in the United States unlawful attack against Afghanistan and to this day continues to occupy and mount military &#8220;armed&#8221; attacks against the civilian population of Afghanistan.  To this day Stephen Harper illegally authorizes Canadian soldiers to <strong>hunt down and murder all Taliban members</strong>, which <strong>according to Canadian and International Laws is defined as the criminal offense called <span style="text-decoration: underline">genocide</span></strong> - a criminal act committed with <strong>intent to destroy, <span style="text-decoration: underline">in whole or in part</span>, <span style="text-decoration: underline">an identifiable group of persons</span> (the Taliban)</strong>.   The Afghan people and the Taliban are not the enemy.  The leaders of the US, Canada and NATO are the enemy.  They are the ones who launched an illegal war against a country that did not attack the US, Canada or any NATO country - waged absent the justification of self-defense.    </p>
	<p>It is our duty as Canadians to set an example.  We are a country of countries.  We are a peaceful nation and we are peace keepers.  We have an ethical, moral and legal responsibility to the World.  We have a duty to make things right again and it all begins with indicting Prime Minster Stephen Harper, Defense Minister Peter Gordon MacKay, former Prime Ministers Jean Chrétien and Paul Martin for Crimes Against Peace, Genocide, Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes.  When we make Prime Minster Stephen Harper, Defense Minister Peter Gordon MacKay, former Prime Ministers Jean Chrétien and Paul Martin accountable for their crimes against the Afghan people then other nations will do the same.</p>
	<p>2010 will be the year when wrongs are made right.  When the Afghanistan victims of these grave and gross injustices will finally see justice.  When Canadian government officials are indicted for Crimes Against Peace, Genocide, Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes.  Only then can Canada become a peacekeeping nation again.</p>
	<p>On Friday October 1, 2004 Turkmenistan President Niyazov invited Oman and Canada to participate in oil and gas projects, including construction of a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Afghanistan_Pipeline">Trans-Afghan Pipeline (TAP)</a> and modernization of the Seyidi refinery. A Omani-Canadian delegation including Yusuf bin Alavi, foreign minister of Oman and Jean Chretien, former prime minister of Canada, met Niyazov to discuss cooperation in the energy and hydrocarbon sectors. Heads of some major Canadian and Omani energy companies were also in the delegation. Jean Chretien, who committed Canada to the US unlawful attack against Afghanistan and its civilian population is now an adviser to Bennett Jones, a Calgary-based law firm specializing in energy issues. In addition, he is international relations adviser to <a href="http://petrokazakhstan.kz/eng/pages/history.html">PetroKazakhstan Inc., an energy firm based in Calgary with major interests in Kazakhstan and Caspian</a>.  The US, Canadian and NATO attack on Afghanistan had nothing to do with the events of September 11, 2001 or anything to do with capturing the US alleged mastermind of 9/11 bin Laden.  The US, Canadian and NATO attacked Afghanistan to take from the Afghan people its financial future - the Trans-Afghan Pipeline, a pipeline that would transport Turkmen natural gas to Pakistan through Afghanistan. </p>
	<p>Who among you will be peacemakers and support indicting Prime Minster Stephen Harper, Defense Minister Peter Gordon MacKay, former Prime Ministers Jean Chrétien and Paul Martin for Crimes Against Peace, Genocide, Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes?  Who among you will step up, and formally file charges of  Crimes Against Peace, Genocide, Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes against Prime Minster Stephen Harper, Defense Minister Peter Gordon MacKay, former Prime Ministers Jean Chrétien and Paul Martin with the Supreme Court of Canada and make right the wrong that our government has done to the innocent people of Afghanistan?  Who among you will contribute legal counsel so that the indictments are filed legally and properly?  Our motive is not one of financial gain.  Our motive is not one of political or religious extremism.  Our motive is to hold our elected officials accountable for their actions and when their actions are deemed illegal, pursuant to Canadian and International Law and Treaties, indict them for the crimes that they commit.  Our motive is to give back the Afghan people their freedom and restore peace - the stated purpose and goal of the United Nations, the North Atlantic Treaty, and of all peacemakers.

			<title>Canadian minority Prime Minister Stephen Harper in violation of parliamentary law.  Unlawfully suspends Parliament to prevent torture evidence from being presented to a Commons inquiry.</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100216-191026</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/JTF2afghan.jpg" alt="JTF2afghan.jpg" title="JTF2afghan.jpg"  class="center" width="400" height="293" /><br />
<em>This photo shows Canadian JTF2 Special Forces personnel escorting three detainees early Monday, Jan. 21, 2002, as they arrive at the airport in Kandahar, Afghanistan aboard a US military aircraft.</em></p>
	<p>Prime Minister Stephen Harper is in direct violation of Parliamentary Law for unlawfully suspending Parliament. Harper did so to prevent more questioning about Canada&#8217;s mission in Afghanistan and whether we are acting responsibly or are we giving POWs over to foreign forces which we know engage in torture and abuse of POWs such as the Afghanistan military or the American military neither of whom Canada can trust not to abuse and torture prisoners in Afghanistan.  Torture is a criminal offense.  Torture is a war crime and an international crime and evidence surfaced that showed that Prime Minister Stephen Harper knew that Afghan detainees that were being transfered from Canadian custody to Afghan and US military authorities would be and were being tortured.  To cover-up Harper&#8217;s Conservative government involvement in the most heinous of war crimes Harper decided unlawfully and without authority, to suspend Parliament.   </p>
	<p>Harper&#8217;s proroguing is taking place outside of what we would normally consider valid, democratic processes requiring the majority of MPs to approve it. That&#8217;s usurping the authority that is normally invested in our elected officials.  MPs were supposed to return to work Jan. 25 after a holiday break, but Harper said he delayed the resumption of Parliament to focus on strategies for Canada&#8217;s economy.  Harper has suspended Parliament twice now to his political gain.</p>
	<p>Less than one-in-five Canadians (18%) agree with the Harper&#8217;s decision to prorogue Parliament, while three-in-five (61%) disagree.</p>
	<p>To understand just what Harper has done I am going to explain to you, our readers, Canada&#8217;s Parlimentary system  After you&#8217;ve read this you too will understand the blatant abuse of the office of the Prime Minster and Parliamentary Law  by Stephen Harper. </p>
	<p><strong>Canada&#8217;s parliamentary system</strong></p>
	<p>Canada&#8217;s parliamentary system is a central component to its government. This system frames the relationship between Canadians and their political leaders, the manner in which laws are passed, and the organization and authority of key government positions and institutions.</p>
	<p><strong>What is a parliamentary government? </strong></p>
	<p>Generally speaking, parliamentary governments are defined by an absence of clear separation between two key branches of government: the legislative branch, which is responsible for enacting laws, and the executive branch, which is responsible for implementing laws. Instead,<strong> in parliamentary governments, the executive branch is &#8220;fused with&#8221; and &#8220;dependent upon&#8221; the legislative branch.</strong></p>
	<p>In Canada&#8217;s parliamentary system, this interrelationship between the legislative and executive branches is expressed in several ways. First, key members of the executive, such as the Prime Minister and Cabinet, are usually drawn directly from the legislative branch. The Prime Minister, for example, is usually an elected member of the House of Commons. As such, s/he performs the dual functions of leading the government, as well as representing his/her riding as a regular member of the House of Commons.</p>
	<p>Second, and most importantly, <span style="color: red">the executive branch (Prime Minister) is completely dependent upon the legislative branch for its authority</span>. <strong>The Prime Minister and Cabinet cannot decide the direction of government or administer enacted laws if it does not enjoy the continual support of the majority of members in the House of Commons.</strong> If the executive loses majority support in the legislature, then typically the government will fall, and elections will be held to select a new executive.</p>
	<p>While all parliamentary governments are the same in that they fuse the executive and legislative branches of government, they often differ substantially otherwise. </p>
	<p>Canada&#8217;s parliamentary system is referred to as a &#8220;Westminster Model.&#8221; This model was first developed by the British and is named after the Palace of Westminster, which houses the British Parliament. Many former colonies of Great Britain, such as Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, adopted this British parliamentary model once they became independent nations.</p>
	<p>The Westminster parliamentary model is distinctive in several ways. First, most Westminster parliaments include a monarch; that is, a king or queen who represents the national sovereign. In most modern Westminster models, however, the monarch is primarily a symbolic figure with little actual political power. Second, most parliaments based on a Westminster model are bicameral, meaning they have two legislative houses or chambers. This generally includes a &#8220;lower&#8221; house made up of members elected directly by citizens, and an &#8220;upper&#8221; house made up of appointed or hereditary members.</p>
	<p><strong>Under a Westminster model, typically each of these components must approve legislation for it to become law. In other words, the monarch, as well as both the lower and upper legislative houses must pass it.</strong></p>
	<p>In Canada&#8217;s Parliament, the national sovereign is the Canadian Monarch, which the country shares with the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth nations. Most of the monarch&#8217;s day-to-day parliamentary responsibilities, however, are performed by the Governor General, the Monarch&#8217;s representative in Canada.</p>
	<p><strong>Before any legislation becomes law, the Monarch (or, in practice, the Governor General) grants &#8220;Royal Assent,&#8221; that is, formal approval.</strong> In addition to approving legislation, the Governor General (as the Monarch&#8217;s representative) also has the power to appoint key parliamentary officers and leaders, including the Prime Minister, Cabinet, and leaders of the legislatures. <strong>The Governor General opens and closes parliamentary sessions </strong>(periods when the legislative houses sit and undertake parliamentary business), <strong>and to dissolve a particular parliament</strong> (which usually leads to an election and the forming of new parliament).</p>
	<p>It is important to note, however, that while the Governor General (as the Monarch&#8217;s representative) holds these parliamentary powers in theory these powers are rarely exercised independently of the Prime Minister and the elected legislature. <strong>It is general custom that the Governor General always grants Royal Assent to legislation passed by the legislative houses</strong>. Moreover, the Prime Minister usually decides when to <strong>open and dissolve</strong> parliaments, with the Governor General simply carrying out the Prime Minister&#8217;s decision. It is important to note that the Prime Minister has no authority to <span style="text-decoration: underline">suspend</span> Parliament.  </p>
	<p>In Canada&#8217;s Parliament, there are two legislative houses or chambers: the House of Commons and the Senate. The House of Commons is an elected house, which is constituted by representatives elected at the local constituency level. The Senate, in contrast, is an appointed house consisting of members appointed by government.</p>
	<p>The House of Commons is the primary legislature in Canada&#8217;s Parliament. <span style="color: red">All legislation must be approved by the House of Commons (by majority vote) in order for it to become law.</span> Moreover, the government of the day is highly dependent upon the House of Commons. The Prime Minister and Cabinet are usually drawn from the elected members of the House, and the government must maintain majority support in the House in order to stay in power (cabinet minister have also been drawn, in rare cases, from the Senate).</p>
	<p>The Senate also plays an important role in Parliament, albeit a less politically powerful one. <strong>All legislation must be approved by the Senate (again, by majority vote) in order for it to become law.</strong> It is, however, generally customary for the appointed Senate to automatically approve legislation that has been passed by the elected House of Commons. Nevertheless, the Senate does engage in extensive review of parliamentary legislation and will, on rare occasion, reject legislation passed by the House. Moreover, the Senate does not enjoy the same level of interaction with the government of the day as the House. Rarely are Cabinet members drawn from the Senate, and the government does not need to maintain majority support in the Senate in order to remain in power.</p>
	<p><strong>Responsible Government</strong></p>
	<p>The concept of responsible government is at the heart of Canada&#8217;s parliamentary system of government. For many people, however, it is a confusing concept. When asked to define responsible government, most people intuitively believe it means that government (that is, the Prime Minister and Cabinet) is responsible to the citizens it presides over. While there is an element of truth to this, the technical meaning of responsible government is that the <strong>government is responsible to Parliament, and, in particular, the elected representatives of the House of Commons.</strong></p>
	<p><strong>Under Canada&#8217;s system, the Prime Minister and Cabinet must maintain the confidence of the House of Commons. This means that a majority of Members of Parliament (MP) must support the government. This support, or lack thereof, is most commonly expressed when the government submits legislation to the House for its approval. If a majority of MPs vote in favour of the legislation, then the government has maintained the confidence of the House; if a majority vote against the legislation, then the government has lost the House&#8217;s confidence.</strong></p>
	<p><strong>Votes against important pieces of government legislation, such as the federal budget, will result in the government falling.</strong> In the event this happens, the Prime Minister usually submit his/her resignation to the Governor General, who, typically, calls for an election or, in rare cases, asks another Member of Parliament (customarily the Leader of the Opposition Party with the greatest number of sitting members) to try to form a government that will have the confidence of the House.</p>
	<p><strong>Another way in which confidence is expressed in a particular government is through direct votes on the government itself. A Member of Parliament may, for example, introduce a motion calling for the resignation of the government. If the motion passes with a majority of votes, then the government is deemed to have lost the confidence of the House, and the Prime Minister will submit his/her resignation to the Governor General.</strong></p>
	<p>In addition to votes on the government or its legislation,<strong> the House further holds the government responsible through the relentless review of individual cabinet ministers and their actions. Ministers must account to the House for the way they run their departments, their policies and budgets, and any mistakes made by department officials. This is what the daily Question Period is all about: it provides a forum for individual MPs to ask questions of Ministers. It is one of the most visible ways the government is held responsible to the House of Commons.</strong> </p>
	<p>Harper will  be held accountable to the Canadian people for his unlawful actions.  Harper only temporarily suspended the inevitable.   The people are now more determined than ever to charge Harper and other members of his government with war crimes as soon as Parliament reconvenes. The majority, the opposition, is more determined to call for his resignation as soon as Parliament reconvenes.  The people demand the removal of Harper.  The people demand the resignation of the one who would dare to make a mockery of our Parliamentary system.  The people will never allow anyone to assume dictatorial authority over them.

			<title>Obama Unlawfully Declares Dictatorial Power in State of the Union Address</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100215-162045</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/OathofOfficeReTake.jpg" alt="OathofOfficeReTake.jpg" title="OathofOfficeReTake.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="274" /><br />
<em>&#8220;I, Barack Hussein Obama, do solemnly swear that I will execute the office of president of the United States faithfully, and will to the best of my ability, <span style="text-decoration: underline">preserve, protect, and defend the constitution of the United States</span>.&#8221;  Obama was forced to retake the Constitutionally required oath of office.  In case you never noticed this swearing was botched too as nowhere is there a Bible with Obama&#8217;s hand on it while he retakes the oath.</em></p>
	<p>In case you missed Obama&#8217;s blatant disregard for the US Constitution, President Obama declared dictator powers in his State of the Union Address:<br />
<em><br />
    &#8220;That&#8217;s why I&#8217;ve called for a bipartisan Fiscal Commission, modeled on a proposal by Republican Judd Gregg and Democrat Kent Conrad.</p>
	<p>    This can&#8217;t be one of those Washington gimmicks that lets us pretend we solved a problem. The commission will have to provide a specific set of solutions by a certain deadline.</p>
	<p>    Now, yesterday, the Senate blocked a bill that would have created this commission. So I&#8217;ll issue an executive order that will allow us to go forward, because I refuse to pass this problem on to another generation of Americans.&#8221;</em></p>
	<p>Executive orders are unconstitutional. They were not authorized by the Founding Fathers, and are a product of 20th century presidents to cirumvent the legislative process.</p>
	<p>It is reasonable to grant the President certain powers to act swiftly in extreme emergencies, but those powers are few, and can be overturned or stopped by the Congress.</p>
	<p>President Obama&#8217;s statement, if followed by action, is grounds for impeachment. This abuse of power has no place in our Constitutional government. If Presidents are given the power to override any denial, we may as well toss the other two branches of government and the U.S. Constitution. Dictator Obama would not need them.</p>
	<p>The Separation of Powers devised by the framers of the Constitution was designed to do one primary thing: to prevent the majority from ruling with an iron fist. Based on their experience, the framers shied away from giving any branch of the new government too much power. The separation of powers provides a system of shared power known as Checks and Balances.</p>
	<p>Three branches are created in the Constitution. The Legislative, composed of the House and Senate, is set up in Article 1. The Executive, composed of the President, Vice-President, and the Departments, is set up in Article 2. The Judicial, composed of the federal courts and the Supreme Court, is set up in Article 3.</p>
	<p>Each of these branches has certain powers, and each of these powers is limited, or checked, by another branch.</p>
	<p>For example,<strong> the President appoints judges and departmental secretaries. But these <span style="text-decoration: underline">appointments must be approved by the Senate</span>. </strong>The Congress can pass a law, but the President can veto it. The Supreme Court can rule a law to be unconstitutional, but the Congress, with the States, can amend the Constitution.</p>
	<p>All of these checks and balances, however, are inefficient. But that&#8217;s by design rather than by accident. <strong>By forcing the various branches to be accountable to the others, <span style="text-decoration: underline">no one branch can usurp enough power to become dominant</span>.</strong></p>
	<p>The following are the powers of the Executive (president): veto power over all bills; <span style="text-decoration: underline">appointment</span> of judges and other officials; makes treaties; <span style="text-decoration: underline">ensures all laws are carried out</span> (especially the Supreme Law of the land - the US Constitution); commander in chief of the military; pardon power. </p>
	<p>The following are the powers of the Legislature (The House and Senate): Passes <span style="text-decoration: underline"><strong>all</strong></span> federal laws; establishes all lower federal courts; can override a Presidential veto; can <span style="text-decoration: underline">impeach the President</span>. </p>
	<p>The following are the powers of the Judiciary: the power to try federal cases and interpret the laws of the nation in those cases; the power to declare any law or executive act unconstitutional. </p>
	<p>Article I of the Constitution vests <span style="text-decoration: underline">all</span> <strong>legislative power in Congress</strong>. The House and Senate are equal partners in the legislative process (<strong>legislation cannot be enacted without the consent of both chambers</strong>); however, the Constitution grants each chamber some unique powers. The Senate is uniquely empowered to ratify treaties and to approve top presidential appointments. </p>
	<p>To protect against abuse of power at the federal level, the United States Constitution <span style="text-decoration: underline">mandated</span> <strong>separation of powers</strong>, with responsibilities divided among the executive, legislative, and judicial branches.</p>
	<p>The Constitution also grants Congress exclusively the power to appropriate funds. This power of the purse is one of Congress&#8217; primary checks on the executive branch.</p>
	<p>Most importantly and relating to Obama&#8217;s false assumption of dictatorial powers, Congress, not the executive branch, has the exclusive power &#8220;<em>To make <span style="text-decoration: underline">all</span> laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the foregoing powers, and all other powers vested by this Constitution in the government of the United States, or in any department or officer thereof</em>.&#8221;</p>
	<p>One of the foremost non-legislative functions of the Congress is the power to investigate and to oversee the executive branch (the president of the United States - Obama). Congressional oversight is usually delegated to committees and is facilitated by Congress&#8217; subpoena power. Congress also has the exclusive power of removal, allowing impeachment and removal of the President, federal judges and other federal officers.</p>
	<p>The Constitution provides checks and balances among the three branches of the federal government. The authors of the Constitution expected the greater power to lie with Congress and it has been theorized that that is one reason they are described in Article One.</p>
	<p>The Constitution concentrates removal powers in the Congress by empowering and obligating the House of Representatives to impeach federal officials (both executive and judicial) for &#8220;Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.&#8221; The Senate is constitutionally empowered and obligated to try all impeachments. A simple majority in the House is required to impeach an official; however, a two-thirds majority in the Senate is required for conviction. A convicted official is automatically removed from office; in addition, the Senate may stipulate that the defendant be banned from holding office in the future.</p>
	<p>The Constitution entrusts certain powers to the Senate alone. <strong>The President may only nominate for appointment Cabinet officials, judges, and other high officers &#8220;<span style="text-decoration: underline">by and with the advice and consent&#8221; of the Senate</span>.</strong> <strong>Furthermore, treaties negotiated by the President <span style="text-decoration: underline">must be ratified by a two-thirds majority vote in the Senate to take effect</span>.</strong></p>
	<p>The United States Constitution clearly declares in </p>
	<p>Section 7.</p>
	<p>All bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with amendments as on other Bills.</p>
	<p>Every bill which shall have passed the House of Representatives and the Senate, shall, before it become a law, be presented to the President of the United States; if he approve he shall sign it, but if not he shall return it, with his objections to that House in which it shall have originated, who shall enter the objections at large on their journal, and proceed to reconsider it. If after such reconsideration two thirds of that House shall agree to pass the bill, it shall be sent, together with the objections, to the other House, by which it shall likewise be reconsidered, and if approved by two thirds of that House, it shall become a law. But in all such cases the votes of both Houses shall be determined by yeas and nays, and the names of the persons voting for and against the bill shall be entered on the journal of each House respectively. If any bill shall not be returned by the President within ten days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the same shall be a law, in like manner as if he had signed it, unless the Congress by their adjournment prevent its return, in which case it shall not be a law.</p>
	<p>Every order, resolution, or vote to which the concurrence of the Senate and House of Representatives may be necessary (except on a question of adjournment) shall be presented to the President of the United States; and before the same shall take effect, shall be approved by him, or being disapproved by him, shall be repassed by two thirds of the Senate and House of Representatives, according to the rules and limitations prescribed in the case of a bill.</p>
	<p>Section 8.</p>
	<p>The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts and excises, to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States; but all duties, imposts and excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;</p>
	<p>To borrow money on the credit of the United States;</p>
	<p>To regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the several states, and with the Indian tribes;</p>
	<p>To establish a uniform rule of naturalization, and uniform laws on the subject of bankruptcies throughout the United States;</p>
	<p>To coin money, regulate the value thereof, and of foreign coin, and fix the standard of weights and measures;</p>
	<p>To provide for the punishment of counterfeiting the securities and current coin of the United States;</p>
	<p>To establish post offices and post roads;</p>
	<p>To promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries;</p>
	<p>To constitute tribunals inferior to the Supreme Court;</p>
	<p>To define and punish piracies and felonies committed on the high seas, and offenses against the law of nations;</p>
	<p><strong>To declare war,</strong> grant letters of marque and reprisal, and make rules concerning captures on land and water;</p>
	<p><strong>To raise and support armies, <span style="text-decoration: underline">but no appropriation of money to that use shall be for a longer term than two years</span>;</strong></p>
	<p>To provide and maintain a navy;</p>
	<p>To make rules for the government and regulation of the land and naval forces;</p>
	<p>To provide for calling forth the militia to execute the laws of the union, suppress insurrections and repel invasions;</p>
	<p>To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the militia, and for governing such part of them as may be employed in the service of the United States, reserving to the states respectively, the appointment of the officers, and the authority of training the militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;</p>
	<p><strong>To exercise exclusive legislation in all cases whatsoever</strong>, over such District (not exceeding ten miles square) as may, by cession of particular states, and the acceptance of Congress, become the seat of the government of the United States, and to exercise like authority over all places purchased by the consent of the legislature of the state in which the same shall be, for the erection of forts, magazines, arsenals, dockyards, and other needful buildings;&#8211;And</p>
	<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">To make all laws</span> which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the foregoing powers, and all other powers vested by this Constitution in the government of the United States, or in any department or officer thereof.</strong>

			<title>We, the jury, find the defendants, George W Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and Barack Obama guilty of: crimes against peace, crimes against humanity and war crimes.</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100214-160638</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/bush-war.jpg" alt="bush-war.jpg" title="bush-war.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="269" /><br />
<em>George W. Bush photographed with war crimes co-defendants in the Cabinet Room of the White House in December 2001. From left: Vice President Dick Cheney, George W Bush, National-Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, White House chief of staff Andrew Card, C.I.A. director George Tenet (seated), and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. </em></p>
	<p>The U.S. war in Afghanistan began in 2001 as a war of aggression similar to the attack on Iraq. Prior to the start of that war on Oct. 7, 2001, the Taliban government in Kabul offered to hand over <a href="http://www.fbi.gov/wanted/terrorists/terbinladen.htm">Osama Bin Laden</a>, the US alleged al-Qaeda leader, if the U.S. provided proof he was responsible for the 9/11 attacks.</p>
	<p>Bush deemed Kabul&#8217;s response insufficient and he attacked without adequately seeking an alternative or peaceful way to resolve differences&#8230;and the UN was not given a proper role. This attack violated Article 2 of the UN Charter that states &#8220;All members shall refrain&#8230;from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity&#8230;of any state&#8230;&#8221;</p>
	<p>Neither Afghanistan nor Iraq attacked the United States, so neither war was based on self-defense. Preemptive war is not an accepted form of self-defense under international law.</p>
	<p>On June 5, 2006, reporter Ed Hass contacted the FBI Headquarters to learn why <a href="http://www.fbi.gov/wanted/terrorists/terbinladen.htm">Bin Laden&#8217;s Most Wanted poster</a> did not indicate that Usama was also wanted in connection with 9/11. He spoke with Rex Tomb, Chief of Investigative Publicity for the FBI.  When asked why there is no mention of 9/11 on Bin Ladens Most Wanted web page, Tomb said, &#8220;The reason why 9/11 is not mentioned on Usama Bin Ladens Most Wanted page is because the FBI has no hard evidence connecting Bin Laden to 9/11.&#8221;</p>
	<p>The list of U.S. war crimes committed in Afghanistan alone include the following:</p>
	<p>    # The U.S. bombed the children&#8217;s hospital in Kabul and a hospital in Herat, resulting in 100 deaths. This violated the Red Cross Convention of 1864 that established even military hospitals as &#8220;neutral&#8221; and that must be &#8220;respected by belligerents.&#8221;</p>
	<p>    # Clearly marked Red Cross warehouses were bombed on three occasions in the Afghan War during October 2001, a violation of the Geneva Convention of 1929 that protects &#8220;the personnel of Voluntary Aid Societies.&#8221;</p>
	<p>    # During its 2001 offensive in Afghanistan, at least 1,000 civilians were killed by U.S. carpet bombing. This violates Protocol 1 to the Geneva Conventions prohibiting &#8220;indiscriminate attacks&#8221; against civilians.</p>
	<p>    # While the Hague Convention of 1899 requires that prisoners be &#8220;humanely treated,&#8221; this was often not the case in Afghanistan where the conditions in the prisons were so shocking that Canadian forces stopped sending prisoners to the American-run prisons at the end of 2005, preferring to send them to facilities run by the Afghan government.</p>
	<p>    # Although the Geneva Convention of 1949 forbids &#8220;violence to life and person, in particular murder of all kinds,&#8221; captives were murdered in Afghanistan&#8217;s prisons. Some were chained naked to the ceiling, cell doors, and the floor. One man, Ait Idr, had his face forced into a toilet that was repeatedly flushed. Another, Mohammed Ahmed Said Haidel, was hit with his arms tied behind his back until his head began to bleed. Another, Ahmed Darabi, was hung by his arms and repeatedly beaten, though he survived&#8212;unlike (a) taxicab driver (named) Dilawar, who died from the same treatment.</p>
	<p>    # Prisoners of war &#8220;shall be lodged in buildings or in barracks,&#8221; says the POW Convention of 1929 but many cells at American-run prisons in Afghanistan lack windows and adequate ventilation. Some prisons lacked heat during cold weather so that prisoners died of exposure. What&#8217;s more, some prisoners have been held in solitary confinement for years.</p>
	<p>    # Where the Geneva Convention decrees sick or wounded prisoners &#8220;shall not be transferred as long as their recovery may be endangered by the journey,&#8221; some prisoners transferred in Afghanistan were thrown to the ground from helicopters and badly injured. Still others were kicked or beaten en route and others died while stuffed into sealed cargo containers. Not surprisingly, the deaths of some Afghan prisoners have never been recorded, another war crimes violation.</p>
	<p>Aggressive war was first declared to be illegal when the U.S. and France coauthored and later ratified the multilateral Kellogg-Briand Pact of 1928, thus incorporating that document into what the U.S. Constitution calls &#8221;the law of the land.&#8221; Furthermore, the U.S. is a signatory to both the United Nations Charter and the Nuremberg Charter of 1945, and the Tokyo Charter of 1946.</p>
	<p>The Nuremberg Charter, for example, defines crimes against peace as &#8220;planning, preparation, initiation or the waging of a war of aggression, or a war in violation of international treaties&#8230;,&#8221; a definition that fits U.S. actions in Afghanistan during 2001.</p>
	<p>It is not only the peoples of Afghanistan and Iraq whose rights have been trampled, for today the globe is being transformed into an unchecked superpower playpen where might appears to make right. Hundreds of years of human rights progress are in serious jeopardy as long as governmental war criminals live blissfully in the knowledge that they will never be accountable for their crimes.</p>
	<p>The more the public observes reference in the news to possible war crimes violations, the more decision makers will be accountable. Otherwise, the impunity of former high Bush administration officials for the immense violations documented&#8230;.threatens to turn back the clock on human progress by shredding the Magna Carta, the American Constitution, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Hague and Geneva Conventions, and similar agreements that have advanced humanity from barbarism toward civilized behavior.</p>
	<p>Bush has accomplished a transformed United States where leaders have abandoned democratic principles and loyal citizens are profoundly ashamed of how the ideals of the country they love so much have been abandoned. Something must be done or Americans will believe that whatever Bush has done was right.</p>
	<p>Bringing George W. Bush and his former administration to justice for war crimes is the most compelling way in which to dispel the fiction that what has been done was necessary and proper. Otherwise, the specter of war crimes will continue to haunt the world, and civilization itself will unravel helplessly.</p>
	<p>On Oct. 7, 2001 the United States. launched a war of terror against Afghanistan.  U.S. leaders are continuing a war that is now opposed by a majority of the American public. A CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released on Sept. 1 indicated that 57 percent of Americans questioned stated they oppose the Afghan war. The percentage in opposition to the war is the highest ever in CNN polling since the war began. </p>
	<p>President Obama has repeatedly referred to Afghanistan as a &#8220;war of necessity.&#8221; The initial invasion was &#8220;justified&#8221; as a self-defense reaction to 9/11 according to the Bush regime. But a National Security Presidential Directive (NSPD) was submitted to the White House on September 9, 2001 that essentially outlined the same war plan that the United States put into play after the 9/11 attacks. The 9/11Commission Report stated that on Sept. 10, 2001, the Bush administration agreed on a plan to oust the Taliban regime by force if it refused to hand over Osama bin Laden. The 9/11 attacks served as a convenient excuse to do what the United States was already intent on doing&#8212;attacking Afghanistan.</p>
	<p><strong>What have nine years of war accomplished?</strong></p>
	<p>Thousands of Afghans have been killed and millions continue to be refugees &#8212;either within Afghanistan or in nearby nations. The Afghan economy is shattered and Afghanistan is among the poorest countries in the world. Women are still oppressed as they were under the Taliban. Last year the US installed Afghanistan legislature passed a law that requires Shi&#8217;ite women to get permission from their husbands to go to school, visit a doctor, to work, and to do other ordinary activities. US installed President Karzai who was originally hand-picked by the United States signed the legislation to advance his election chances within Shi&#8217;a areas. Government corruption is so extensive that even the U.S. State Department has condemned it. The recent &#8220;democratic&#8221; elections are to this day still being contested because of massive fraud. War and drug lords are part of the government. One of Karzai&#8217;s vice-presidential running mates, Mohammad Qasim Fahim, is a notorious human rights abuser. In many areas such as poverty rates, life expectancy, unemployment, child mortality, life expectancy, and lack of human rights, Afghanistan is near the worst in the world. </p>
	<p>Afghanistan is number one in opium production, not under the Taliban rule but under US and NATO occupation.  Entire US battalions are used to protect the Opium fields of Afghanistan - to ensure that the fields are not destroyed as the illegal drug trade has financed all CIA illegal black opts since Vietnam.  </p>
	<p>After taking office, Obama escalated the war by sending additional troops to Afghanistan, with 68,000 to be there by November. There are also 38,000 NATO troops present and Afghan conscripts include 216,000 police and soldiers. As of March 2009, the U.S. military also employed 68,000 &#8220;mercenaries&#8221; in Afghanistan. These mercenaries do not include other hired killers on the payrolls of the State Department or other U.S. agencies. And despite nearly 400,000 personnel working for the U.S. military, &#8220;The insurgents (resistance groups) control or contest a significant portion of the country,&#8221; according to General McChrystal. </p>
	<p>Last September CIA Director Panetta announced that the CIA is adding extra bases in Afghanistan to support the military buildup in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Since taking office, Obama has asked Congress for more funds to expand the U.S. ran prison in Bagram, which holds prisoners taken in the US war of aggression and terror in Afghanistan and those captured and kidnapped by U.S. forces and their allies from around the world. Bagram&#8217;s record of human rights abuses rivals Guantanamo&#8217;s. </p>
	<p>In addition to escalating the Afghan war, Obama has expanded the war into neighboring Pakistan by launching frequent missile strikes that have killed countless numbers of civilians. The United States has pressured Pakistan to attack Islamic militants within the country and civil war has broken out in parts of the country as a result. Continuing to expand the war of terror into nuclear-armed Pakistan is a dangerous proposition.</p>
	<p>U.S. military leaders openly admit that they are engaged in a &#8220;long war&#8221; in the Afghanistan region. Depending on which one you listen to, the war will last anywhere from 5 years to a few more decades. Obama claims the United States must fight this war so that the Taliban and al Queda can not retake control of the country.  Supporting the U.S. government to defeat the Taliban and their allies will not advance the interests of the Afghan or American people.  It was in the interest of the US government to put the Taliban in power after the Taliban and other Afghanistan nationalists groups successfully ousted the Soviet Union from Afghanistan, ending the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan.  Now it is only in the interest of the US government to commit genocide against the very same people who liberated the Afghan people from the Soviet war of aggression and occupation.  The US needs the Afghanistan opium to finance all their future illegal CIA operations of terror, sabotage and political assassinations using CIA recruited operatives called al Queda.  If the US leaves Afghanistan the Taliban would surely wipe out the Opium drug trade, just as they did in March of 2001.  The Taliban are not drug warlords the US imposed Afghanistan government is made up entirely of drug warlords - including US imposed Afghan President Hamid Karzai.  The Taliban would also take back control of the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline (TAP or TAPI) that the US stole from them when the US illegally attacked Afghanistan on October 7, 2001.  </p>
	<p>This war must be ended, not escalated. The U.S. and NATO must withdraw its forces. We must deliver a powerful message to the world that people in the United States will not allow their government to commit war crimes in Afghanistan.</p>

			<title>Privately owned US Federal Reserve banks linked to massive securities fraud that is fueling Europe&#8217;s Crisis</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100214-090123</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/20dollar.jpg" alt="20dollar.jpg" title="20dollar.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="136" /><br />
<em>Take a look at any US dollar.  They all state that the paper is a &#8220;Federal Reserve Note&#8221; - top middle of every paper money.  The US Federal Reserve is a group of privately owned banks that charges the American people interest to print the US currency.  The US Federal Reserve banks are also the ones who claimed they were in financial trouble and got $trillions in Bush&#8217;s Reserve Banks Bailout Scheme and Obama&#8217;s Reserve Banks Bonus Scheme.  </em></p>
	<p>Securities fraud is a crime in which laws set to protect investors and securities traders are violated.  Securities fraud is a serious offense that can carry both civil and criminal punishments. Criminal investigations can lead to imprisonment.</p>
	<p>The most common forms of securities fraud that are:</p>
	<p>    * Insider trading (trading based on information that is not available to the public)<br />
    * Accounting fraud (keeping inaccurate books or presenting false information purposefully)<br />
    * Misrepresentation (presenting misleading or untrue information about a company, or its securities, to an investor or the public)</p>
	<p>Another type of securities fraud is called shareholders fraud.  Shareholder fraud occurs when a company conceals its debts or beefs up its earnings reports in order to mislead investors and stockholders. Shareholder fraud can cost people their retirement funds or life savings. A few prominent examples of companies that have been accused of shareholder fraud include: Enron, Tyco, WorldCom, and Adelphia.</p>
	<p>Privately owned (not a branch of the United States government) US Federal Reserve banks tactics akin to the ones that fostered the subprime mortgages in the United States have worsened the financial crisis shaking Greece and has undermined the euro by coaching European governments to resort to securities fraud to hide their mounting debts. </p>
	<p>As worries over Greece rattle world markets, records and interviews show that with the US Federal Reserve bank&#8217;s help, the nation engaged in a decade-long effort to skirt European debt limits. One deal created by Goldman Sachs helped obscure billions in debt from the budget overseers in Brussels. </p>
	<p>Even as the crisis was nearing the flashpoint, banks were searching for ways to help Greece forestall the day of reckoning. In early November &#8212; three months before Athens became the epicenter of global financial anxiety &#8212; a team from Goldman Sachs arrived in the ancient city with a very illegal proposition for a government struggling to pay its bills.</p>
	<p>The bankers, led by Goldman&#8217;s president, Gary D. Cohn, held out a financing instrument that would have pushed debt from Greece&#8217;s health care system far into the future, much as when strapped homeowners take out second mortgages to pay off their credit cards.</p>
	<p>It had worked before. In 2001, just after Greece was admitted to Europe&#8217;s monetary union, Goldman helped the government secretly borrow billions, people familiar with the transaction said. That deal, hidden from public view because it was treated as a currency trade rather than a loan, helped Athens to meet Europe&#8217;s deficit rules while continuing to spend beyond its means.</p>
	<p>Athens did not pursue the latest Goldman illegal proposal, but with Greece groaning under the weight of its debts and with its richer neighbors vowing to come to its aid, the deals over the last decade are raising questions about the US Federal Reserve banks&#8217; role in the world&#8217;s latest financial drama.</p>
	<p>As in the American subprime crisis and the implosion of the American International Group, financial derivatives played a role in the run-up of Greek debt. Instruments developed by Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase and a wide range of other US Federal Reserve banks encouraged politicians to hide from their shareholders, the public, additional borrowing in Greece, Italy and possibly elsewhere.</p>
	<p>In dozens of deals across the Continent, US Federal Reserve banks provided cash upfront (money they received illegally by way of another securities fraud scheme they executed against the US public by way of bailouts from both George W Bush and Barry Obama) in return for government payments to the US Federal Reserve Banks in the future, with those liabilities then left off the books. Greece, for example, traded away the rights to airport fees and lottery proceeds in years to come.</p>
	<p>Critics say that such deals, because they are not recorded as loans, mislead investors and regulators about the depth of a country&#8217;s liabilities -  in other words accounting fraud.</p>
	<p>While the US Federal Reserve Banks&#8217; illegal handiwork in Europe has received little attention on this side of the Atlantic, it has been sharply criticized in Greece and in magazines like Der Spiegel in Germany.</p>
	<p>While Greece did not successfully benefit from Goldman&#8217;s illegal proposal in November 2009, it has had to pay Goldman Sachs about $300 million in fees for arranging the 2001 securities fraud transaction, according to several bankers familiar with the deal.  But that isn&#8217;t the the final payment.  The deal, saddles the government of Greece with big payments to Goldman until 2019.</p>
	<p>The Federal Reserve is the privately owned central banking system of the United States. It was conceived by several of the world&#8217;s leading bankers in 1910 and enacted in 1913, with the passing of the Federal Reserve Act. The passing of the Federal Reserve Act was largely a response to another orchestrated financial panics and bank runs, the most severe of which being the <a href="http://www.bos.frb.org/about/pubs/panicof1.pdf">Panic of 1907</a>.  Few people know or even realize that the Panic of 1907 was orchestrated by the very same banks that caused the current US financial crisis.  Back in 1907 bankers from several privately owned banks wanted control of the United States - financial control and in order to get this control they caused the financial panic of 1907.  They are also solely responsible for the current US financial crisis.  They created a false financial panic in order to get their hands on $trillions of US federal tax dollars.  They were successful in defrauding the American people in 1907 as they were fraudulently placed in charge of all banking for the United States of America.  They were successful in defrauding the American people again in October 2008 with the theft of $700 billion from the American taxpayers and a little more than 4 months later, February 2009, another $787 billion with Barry Obama&#8217;s US Federal Reserve Banks bonuses scheme.

			<title>U.S. To Be Hit By Massive Cyber Attack On Feb. 16. 2010, coordinated by the US White House</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100211-210843</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p>On February 16, at about 10:00 am ET, the U.S. will be hit by a massive, crippling cyber attack from a supposedly unknown entity. The same people who will be coordinating the attack will convene in the White House situation room and plan the response, from mitigation to retaliation. </p>
	<p>For the second time in US history the US will be attacked while the entire US intelligence and security systems are fully engulfed in a war-game. Like the attacks of September 11, 2001 the US police and security forces will not be able to differentiate between exercise and the real thing.  It will be very realistic, featuring senior intelligence and national security officials, including former directors of intelligence agencies and combatant commands and homeland security advisers.</p>
	<p>A production company (rumoured to be AMC formerly called Allied Media Corp - the ones who made all of the al Qaeda and bin Laden terrorist videos for the US government of George W Bush) has been hired to re-create a White House Sit Room in the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, and professional scriptwriters have been working with experts to create a real-life scenario.</p>
	<p>Corporate sponsors of the event include companies with financial stakes in the future of cyber defense &#8212; General Dynamics is reported to be one &#8212; but also companies whose transactions are the lifeblood to the American economy (mainly the banks of the privately owned US Federal Reserve and their share holders and AIG, all who have received $trillions from the George W Bush and Barry Obama administrations in fake bailouts), and who want to foster a greater sense of urgency among the public and policymakers. (PayPal has joined as a sponsor.) </p>
	<p>CNN has agreed to broadcast live the attack to make it as real as possible, just like the false flag US government coordinated attack against the US on September 11, 2001.  The US government is hoping CNN doesn&#8217;t screw up again and broadcast somehting that hasn&#8217;t happened yet like they did on September 11, 2001 whereby CNN broadcasted live that World Trade Center Tower 7 had collapsed before it was actually &#8220;brought down&#8221; (demolished by explosives).  CNN&#8217;s Aaron Brown reported that Building 7 &#8220;has collapsed or is collapsing&#8221; over an hour before it fell.  The BBC reported the collapse of WTC Building 7 at least 25-minutes prior to the actual collapse of the building.  All is proof of a scripted broadcast by both the BBC and CNN to create a real-life scenario.

			<title>Research finds chlorinated water as the basic cause of heart attacks, stroke and cancer.</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100209-194718</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/warning_chlorine.jpg" alt="warning_chlorine.jpg" title="warning_chlorine.jpg"  class="center" width="200" height="268" /> </p>
	<p>&#8220;We are quite convinced, based on this study, that there is an association between cancer and chlorinated water.&#8221; - Medical College Of Wisconsin research team</p>
	<p>The addition of chlorine to our drinking water began in the late 1800s and by 1904 was the standard in water treatment, and for the most part remains so today. We don&#8217;t use chlorine because it&#8217;s the safest or even the most effective means of disinfection, we use it because it is the cheapest. In spite of all our technological advances, we essentially still pour bleach in our water before we drink it. The long term effects of chlorinated drinking water have just recently being recognized. According to the U.S. Council Of Environmental Quality, &#8220;Cancer risk among people drinking chlorinated water is 93% higher than among those whose water does not contain chlorine.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Dr. Joseph Price wrote a highly controversial book in the late sixties titled Coronaries/Cholesterol/Chlorine and concluded that nothing can negate the incontrovertible fact, the basic cause of atherosclerosis and resulting entities such as heart attacks and stroke, is chlorine.&#8221; Dr. Price later headed up a study using chickens as test subjects, where two groups of several hundred birds were observed throughout their span to maturity. One group was given water with chlorine and the other without. The group raised with chlorine, when autopsied, showed some level of heart or circulatory disease in every specimen, the group without had no incidence of disease. The group with chlorine under winter conditions, showed outward signs of poor circulation, shivering, drooped feathers and a reduced level of activity. The group without chlorine grew faster, larger and displayed vigorous health. This study was well recepted in the poultry industry and is still used as a reference today. As a result, most large poultry producers use dechlorinated water. It would be a common sense conclusion that if regular chlorinated tap water is not good enough for the chickens, then it probably is not good enough for us humans!</p>
	<p>There is a lot of well founded concern about chlorine. When chlorine is added to our water, it combines with other natural compounds to form Trihalomethanes (chlorination byproducts), or THMs. These chlorine byproducts trigger the production of free radicals in the body, causing cell damage, and are highly carcinogenic. &#8220;Although concentrations of these carcinogens (THMs) are low, it is precisely these low levels that cancer scientists believe are responsible for the majority of human cancers in the United States&#8220;. The Environmental Defense Fund</p>
	<p>Simply stated chlorine is a pesticide, as defined by the U.S. EPA, who&#8217;s sole purpose is to kill living organisms. When we consume water containing chlorine, it kills some part of us, destroying cells and tissue inside our body. Dr. Robert Carlson, a highly respected University of Minnesota researcher who&#8217;s work is sponsored by the Federal Environmental Protection Agency, sums it up by claiming , &#8220;the chlorine problem is similar to that of air pollution&#8221;, and adds that &#8220;chlorine is the greatest crippler and killer of modern times!&#8221;</p>
	<p>Breast cancer, which now effects one in every eight women in North America, has recently been linked to the accumulation of chlorine compounds in the breast tissue. A study carried out in Hartford Connecticut, the first of it&#8217;s kind in North America, found that, &#8220;women with breast cancer have 50% to 60% higher levels of organochlorines (chlorination byproducts) in their breast tissue than women without breast cancer.&#8221;</p>
	<p>One of the most shocking components to all of these studies is that up to 2/3s of our harmful exposure to chlorine is due to inhalation of steam and skin absorption while showering. A warm shower opens up the pores of the skin and allows for excelerated absorption of chlorine and other chemicals in water. The steam we inhale while showering can contain up to 50 times the level of chemicals than tap water due to the fact that chlorine and most other contaminants vaporize much faster and at a lower temperature than water. Inhalation is a much more harmful means of exposure since the chlorine gas (chloroform) we inhale goes directly into our blood stream. When we drink contaminated water the toxins are partially filtered out by our kidneys and digestive system. Chlorine vapors are known to be a strong irritant to the sensitive tissue and bronchial passages inside our lungs, it was used as a chemical weapon in World War II. The inhalation of chlorine is a suspected cause of asthma and bronchitis, especially in children&#8230; which has increased 300% in the last two decades. &#8220;Showering is suspected as the primary cause of elevated levels of chloroform in nearly every home because of chlorine in the water.&#8221; Dr Lance Wallace, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.</p>
	<p>Chlorine in shower water also has a very negative cosmetic effect, robbing our skin and hair of moisture and elasticity, resulting in a less vibrant and youthful appearance. Anyone who has ever swam in a chlorinated pool can relate to the harsh effects that chlorine has on the skin and hair. What&#8217;s surprising is that we commonly find higher levels of chlorine in our tap water than is recommended safe for swimming pools.</p>
	<p>Aside from all the health risks related to chlorine in our water, it is the primary cause of bad taste and odor in drinking water. The objectionable taste causes many people to turn to other less healthful beverages like soft drinks, tea or other sweetened drinks. A decreased intake of water, for any reason, can only result in a lower degree of health.</p>
	<p>The good news is that chlorine is one of the easiest substances to remove from our water.   How can you remove the chlorine from the water?  Install a Brita (or similar) filter that attaches to your faucet. There are also water pitchers with filters available that will purify the water. In-line filters, which sit under your kitchen sink, are also an effective way to remove chlorine. The least expensive method of filtering your drinking water is by boiling or even setting water out in a large glass container in the sun for a few hours.

			<title>NATO's Hidden Agenda</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100207-162233</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/nato-expansion.jpg" alt="nato-expansion.jpg" title="nato-expansion.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="281" /></p>
	<p>On the evening of 24 March 1999 US president Bill Clinton ordered NATO air strikes against the Yugoslav Federation. This was the first time in its 50 years of existence that NATO has taken military action against a sovereign state. Kosovo is a province of the Serb Republic of the Yugoslav Federation, and its ethnic contradictions and bloody conflicts are in the final analysis an internal affair of the Yugoslav Federation. In the US launching military attacks against a sovereign state in this fashion without UN Security Council authorization, the US and NATO violated to a serious degree the &#8220;UN Charter&#8221; and the principles of international law. Why was the western countries headed by the United States so keen on interfering in the Kosovo crisis and launch a major attack on the Yugoslav Federation?</p>
	<p>The United States, under the Clintons (Bill and Hillary) and other western countries declared that their intervention in the Kosovo crisis is for the sake of preserving &#8220;human rights&#8221; and preventing a &#8220;genocidal&#8221; mass slaughter there, and also preventing this conflict from involving neighboring countries and threatening European security.</p>
	<p>Are these the true facts? No.  </p>
	<p>Bill Clinton&#8217;s air strikes killed at least 10 times more civilians than the combined death toll from both sides involved in the civil war.  The civil war was never an armed attack against any NATO member country and that fact alone means NATO violated its law.  Then what was the US NATO hidden agenda?   </p>
	<p>Having absorbed Poland, the Czech Republic, and Hungary, NATO has had the insatiable desire to continue to expand toward the former Soviet Union. And the Yugoslav Federation is a state in an extremely important strategic position in the Balkans and also has good relations with Russia; it has thus become an obstacle on the road of NATO&#8217;s further eastward expansion.</p>
	<p>Back in 1999 NATO forces waved the white flag of &#8220;peacekeeping&#8221; as it launched air strike after air strike against the civilian population of the Yugoslav Federation to forcibly occupy Kosovo.  This military action had nothing to do with peacekeeping.  It was launched by the US, under Bill and Hillary Clinton, to split and weaken the Yugoslav Federation and reduce Russia&#8217;s sphere of influence and establish a European security pattern dominated by NATO (US). This is the first strategic conspiracy of the United States government to use NATO to launch wars that &#8220;fit&#8221; the US foreign policies and agenda in contradiction and contravention of the UN Charter and Intentional Laws and treaties. </p>
	<p>Then US Secretary of Defense Cohen has said that NATO&#8217;s credibility was on the line in Kosovo. Why did he say that? After the end of the cold war, NATO should have died a natural death following the demise of the Warsaw Pact. Yet in addition to ceaselessly expanding eastward, NATO also wants to formulate a so-called new strategy of development in the next century, and the core of this new strategy is to expand NATO&#8217;s functions and scope and to intervene militarily, without UN authorization, in all crises outside NATO&#8217;s defense area that are held to threaten the security of the alliance.  NATO held a summit in Washington in April 1999 (at the request of US President Clinton) where this new strategy was discussed, and the Kosovo <span style="text-decoration: underline">civil war </span>(not the international crisis that Bill and Hillary Clinton claimed) become a &#8220;touchstone&#8221; for the United States to test this new strategy. </p>
	<p>Since the end of the cold war, it has been the consistent aim of the United States to establish a one-pole world dominated by itself. Former US Secretary of State Albright said undisguisedly, regarding the Kosovo peace accord, that it would be &#8220;a table without legs&#8221; unless there were troops stationed there.</p>
	<p>This means that if the Yugoslav Federation signs the peace accord, NATO forces will enter Kosovo without firing a shot; and if the Yugoslav Federation refused to sign, NATO forces will fight their way into Kosovo &#8212; no matter whether the accord is reached or not, NATO troops will enter and occupy Kosovo.</p>
	<p>Having occupied Kosovo NATO forces could directly press up to the CIS (The Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) is a regional organization whose participating countries are former Soviet Republics, formed during the break up of the Soviet Union.), dismantle Russian control over the CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States), and then directly insert NATO force southward into the Middle East. In this way the road would be open for the United States to use NATO to intervene militarily throughout the globe and dominate the world. NATO&#8217;s military interventions in Kosovo and now Afghanistan were driven entirely by US interests.  This is the most important US strategic conspiracy in the US launching air strikes against the Yugoslav Federation.  NATO&#8217;s involvement in the illegal attack and occupation of Afghanistan is it&#8217;s second move against Russia.  Only after US and NATO forces were on the ground in Afghanistan could the US dare to move and take control of the Middle East oil.  Now that US and NATO forces were on the ground in Afghanistan the US launched an attack on Iraq in March of 2003.  </p>
	<p>Even though US president Barry (Barrack isn&#8217;t his legal name) Obama promised to withdraw US troops from Iraq immediately after he was elected president that has not happened.  He has broken the promise that gave him the White House.  Why did he break his promise to the people of the United States? The US domination agenda.  Obama hasn&#8217;t withdrawn troops from Iraq and Obama has increased the number of troops in Afghanistan for one reason.  Another war.  As I write this article the United States government is planning for another war of aggression.  Several sources within Obama&#8217;s own administration and the US military have revealed that the US is going to attack Iran.  The US troops are not going to be withdrawn from Iraq.  Obama had no intentions of keeping his promise.  The troops in Iraq are going to be used by the US government to launch an attack on Iran.  Obama told congressional leaders in February of 2009 that he&#8217;s planning to pull all combat troops out of Iraq by August 2010.   What he&#8217;s saying is that all US troops are going to pull out of Iraq and pour into Iran in an invasion that should take place by August 2010.  Obama and the government needed more US and NATO troops in Afghanistan not to fight the Taliban but to fight Russia should Russia protect it&#8217;s ally and interests in Iran.  The US is also presently arming Taiwan to the teeth because China has major contracts with Iran and when the US attacks Iran the US expects Taiwan to keep China busy.  </p>
	<p>When you stop and look at the: increase in US and NATO troops in Afghanistan, the renewed rhetoric and threats by the US against Iran, the US arming of Taiwan despite China&#8217;s repeated formal protests and the US and NATO arming former Soviet block countries it becomes obvious that the US is planning to start another World War.  The US attack on Iran, either directly or through Israel, will start WWIII.  It is as though the US government intentionally wants to start a World War.  Why?  So that the US government, both Democrats and Republicans, won&#8217;t go down in history as the ones who bankrupted the US through both parties&#8217; involvement in the US Federal Reserve robbery of the United States and its people.  The embarrassment, the shame and the indictments against US government officials, from both parties, including Mr Obama, is what they want to avoid.  Starting another World War is their get out of jail free card.  As soon as one US state after another declares bankruptcy the US government will have lost its hidden agenda of World domination.  The US government believes that the time is now to make its move.  Before the American people find out just what their government did to their country.  George HW Bush was quoted saying: &#8220;if the American people ever find out what we have done, they will chase us down the streets and lynch us.&#8221;

			<title>The US House of Representative February 12, 1998 hearing that proves that the US is guilty of waging a war of aggression against Afghanistan</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100207-155939</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/USAfghan_pipeline.jpg" alt="USAfghan_pipeline.jpg" title="USAfghan_pipeline.jpg"  class="center" width="300" height="313" /><br />
<em>Unocal Vice President John J. Maresca&#8212; later to become a Special Ambassador to Afghanistan&#8212;testified before the House of Representatives that until a single, unified, US friendly government is in place in Afghanistan, the trans-Afghan pipeline will not be built.</em></p>
	<p>Most criminal investigations require six basic questions to be answered.  &#8220;Who, what, when, where, why, and how?&#8221;  You answer these questions, you have the criminal, and you solve the crime.  &#8220;Who&#8221; is simple &#8211; that&#8217;s the victim, the person or persons who was assaulted, robbed, murdered.  The &#8220;who&#8221; is the criminal&#8217;s ultimate choice.  What he did, when he did it, where he did it, and perhaps how he did it, are usually self evident after the crime. </p>
	<p>It&#8217;s the &#8220;why&#8221; that is, many times, hard to understand.  Not the &#8220;why&#8221; that has a simple answer&#8212; money, frustration, anger, rage, or stupidity.  The &#8220;whys&#8221; that are hard to answer are the less obvious, the less sensible ones; the ones that prove to be the most difficult for us to understand. </p>
	<p>Most lawyers who go on television to discuss a crime will say that motive, the why of a crime, is not important.  In fact, motive is not a legal element of a crime.  However, intent or &#8220;mens rea,&#8221; the mental purpose of performing an act that is forbidden by law, is a legal element of a crime.  Motive is the reason, the why, sometimes the darkest chapter in the darkest book in the massive library we call the human mind.</p>
	<p>Motive is important because without an understanding of why people commit certain crimes in the way they do, we are left to begin at square one on every investigation</p>
	<p>The US government planned for, prepared for, initiated and waged a war of aggression against Afghanistan in violation of international treaties, agreements or assurances, immediately following this HOUSE COMMITTEE ON INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS hearing.  NATO member countries are guilty of this crime of Crimes against Peace ((i)Planning, preparation, initiation or waging of a war of aggression or a war in violation of international treaties, agreements or assurances; (ii) Participation in a common plan or conspiracy for the accomplishment of any of the acts mentioned under (i)) as they are willing participants and co-conspirators in this war of aggression against the sovereign state of Afghanistan and its people.</p>
	<p>The following US House of Representative hearing held on FEBRUARY 12, 1998 is the burden of proof that the US is guilty of crimes against peace and waging an illegal war of aggression against Afghanistan. The US government of Bill and Hillary Clinton was lobbied by the US oil giant Unicol to replace (overthrow) the Afghan Taliban government and replace it with one &#8220;that has the confidence of governments, lenders and our company&#8221;. The US government began planning to overthrow the Taliban government and replace it with a pro US leader 3 years before 9/11. </p>

	<p>TESTIMONY</p>
	<p>BY</p>
	<p>JOHN J. MARESCA</p>
	<p>VICE PRESIDENT, INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS</p>
	<p>UNOCAL CORPORATION</p>
	<p>TO</p>
	<p>HOUSE COMMITTEE ON INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS</p>
	<p>SUBCOMMITTEE ON ASIA AND THE PACIFIC</p>
	<p>FEBRUARY 12, 1998</p>
	<p>WASHINGTON, D.C.</p>
	<p>Mr. Chairman, I am John Maresca, Vice President, International Relations, of Unocal Corporation.</p>
	<p>Unocal is one of the world&#8217;s leading energy resource and project development companies. Our activities are focused on three major regions &#8212; Asia, Latin America and the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. In Asia and the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, we are a major oil and gas producer. I appreciate your invitation to speak here today. I believe these hearings are important and timely, and I congratulate you for focusing on Central Asia oil and gas reserves and the role they play in shaping U.S. policy.</p>
	<p>Today we would like to focus on three issues concerning this region, its resources and U.S. policy:</p>
	<p>The need for multiple pipeline routes for Central Asian oil and gas.</p>
	<p>The need for U.S. support for international and regional efforts to achieve balanced and lasting political settlements within Russia, other newly independent states and in Afghanistan.</p>
	<p>The need for structured assistance to encourage economic reforms and the development of appropriate investment climates in the region. In this regard, we specifically support repeal or removal of Section 907 of the Freedom Support Act.</p>
	<p>For more than 2,000 years, Central Asia has been a meeting ground between Europe and Asia, the site of ancient east-west trade routes collectively called the Silk Road and, at various points in history, a cradle of scholarship, culture and power. It is also a region of truly enormous natural resources, which are revitalizing cross-border trade, creating positive political interaction and stimulating regional cooperation. These resources have the potential to recharge the economies of neighboring countries and put entire regions on the road to prosperity.</p>
	<p>About 100 years ago, the international oil industry was born in the Caspian/Central Asian region with the discovery of oil. In the intervening years, under Soviet rule, the existence of the region&#8217;s oil and gas resources was generally known, but only partially or poorly developed.</p>
	<p>As we near the end of the 20th century, history brings us full circle. With political barriers falling, Central Asia and the Caspian are once again attracting people from around the globe who are seeking ways to develop and deliver its bountiful energy resources to the markets of the world.</p>
	<p>The Caspian region contains tremendous untapped hydrocarbon reserves, much of them located in the Caspian Sea basin itself. Proven natural gas reserves within Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan equal more than 236 trillion cubic feet. The region&#8217;s total oil reserves may reach more than 60 billion barrels of oil &#8212; enough to service Europe&#8217;s oil needs for 11 years. Some estimates are as high as 200 billion barrels. In 1995, the region was producing only 870,000 barrels per day (44 million tons per year [Mt/y]).</p>
	<p>By 2010, Western companies could increase production to about 4.5 million barrels a day (Mb/d) &#8212; an increase of more than 500 percent in only 15 years. If this occurs, the region would represent about five percent of the world&#8217;s total oil production, and almost 20 percent of oil produced among non-OPEC countries.</p>
	<p>One major problem has yet to be resolved: how to get the region&#8217;s vast energy resources to the markets where they are needed. There are few, if any, other areas of the world where there can be such a dramatic increase in the supply of oil and gas to the world market. The solution seems simple: build a &#8220;new&#8221; Silk Road. Implementing this solution, however, is far from simple. The risks are high, but so are the rewards.</p>
	<p>Finding and Building Routes to World Markets</p>
	<p>One of the main problems is that Central Asia is isolated. The region is bounded on the north by the Arctic Circle, on the east and west by vast land distances, and on the south by a series of natural obstacles &#8212; mountains and seas &#8212; as well as political obstacles, such as conflict zones or sanctioned countries.</p>
	<p>This means that the area&#8217;s natural resources are landlocked, both geographically and politically. Each of the countries in the Caucasus and Central Asia faces difficult political challenges. Some have unsettled wars or latent conflicts. Others have evolving systems where the laws &#8212; and even the courts &#8212; are dynamic and changing. Business commitments can be rescinded without warning, or they can be displaced by new geopolitical realities.</p>
	<p>In addition, a chief technical obstacle we face in transporting oil is the region&#8217;s existing pipeline infrastructure. Because the region&#8217;s pipelines were constructed during the Moscow-centered Soviet period, they tend to head north and west toward Russia. There are no connections to the south and east.</p>
	<p>Depending wholly on this infrastructure to export Central Asia oil is not practical. Russia currently is unlikely to absorb large new quantities of &#8220;foreign&#8221; oil, is unlikely to be a significant market for energy in the next decade, and lacks the capacity to deliver it to other markets.</p>
	<p>Certainly there is no easy way out of Central Asia. If there are to be other routes, in other directions, they must be built.</p>
	<p>Two major energy infrastructure projects are seeking to meet this challenge. One, under the aegis of the Caspian Pipeline Consortium, or CPC, plans to build a pipeline west from the Northern Caspian to the Russian Black Sea port of Novorossisk. From Novorossisk, oil from this line would be transported by tanker through the Bosphorus to the Mediterranean and world markets.</p>
	<p>The other project is sponsored by the Azerbaijan International Operating Company (AIOC), a consortium of 11 foreign oil companies including four American companies &#8212; Unocal, Amoco, Exxon and Pennzoil. It will follow one or both of two routes west from Baku. One line will angle north and cross the North Caucasus to Novorossisk. The other route would cross Georgia and extend to a shipping terminal on the Black Sea port of Supsa. This second route may be extended west and south across Turkey to the Mediterranean port of Ceyhan.</p>
	<p>But even if both pipelines were built, they would not have enough total capacity to transport all the oil expected to flow from the region in the future; nor would they have the capability to move it to the right markets. Other export pipelines must be built.</p>
	<p>Unocal believes that the central factor in planning these pipelines should be the location of the future energy markets that are most likely to need these new supplies. Just as Central Asia was the meeting ground between Europe and Asia in centuries past, it is again in a unique position to potentially service markets in both of these regions &#8212; if export routes to these markets can be built. Let&#8217;s take a look at some of the potential markets.</p>
	<p>Western Europe</p>
	<p>Western Europe is a tough market. It is characterized by high prices for oil products, an aging population, and increasing competition from natural gas. Between 1995 and 2010, we estimate that demand for oil will increase from 14.1 Mb/d (705 Mt/y) to 15.0 Mb/d (750 Mt/y), an average growth rate of only 0.5 percent annually. Furthermore, the region is already amply supplied from fields in the Middle East, North Sea, Scandinavia and Russia. Although there is perhaps room for some of Central Asia&#8217;s oil, the Western European market is unlikely to be able to absorb all of the production from the Caspian region.</p>
	<p>Central and Eastern Europe</p>
	<p>Central and Eastern Europe markets do not look any better. Although there is increased demand for oil in the region&#8217;s transport sector, natural gas is gaining strength as a competitor. Between 1995 and 2010, demand for oil is expected to increase by only half a million barrels per day, from 1.3 Mb/d (67 Mt/y) to 1.8 Mb/d (91.5 Mt/y). Like Western Europe, this market is also very competitive. In addition to supplies of oil from the North Sea, Africa and the Middle East, Russia supplies the majority of the oil to this region.</p>
	<p>The Domestic NIS Market</p>
	<p>The growth in demand for oil also will be weak in the Newly Independent States (NIS). We expect Russian and other NIS markets to increase demand by only 1.2 percent annually between 1997 and 2010.</p>
	<p>Asia/Pacific</p>
	<p>In stark contrast to the other three markets, the Asia/Pacific region has a rapidly increasing demand for oil and an expected significant increase in population. Prior to the recent turbulence in the various Asian/Pacific economies, we anticipated that this region&#8217;s demand for oil would almost double by 2010. Although the short-term increase in demand will probably not meet these expectations, Unocal stands behind its long-term estimates.</p>
	<p>Energy demand growth will remain strong for one key reason: the region&#8217;s population is expected to grow by 700 million people by 2010.</p>
	<p>It is in everyone&#8217;s interests that there be adequate supplies for Asia&#8217;s increasing energy requirements. If Asia&#8217;s energy needs are not satisfied, they will simply put pressure on all world markets, driving prices upwards everywhere.</p>
	<p>The key question is how the energy resources of Central Asia can be made available to satisfy the energy needs of nearby Asian markets. There are two possible solutions &#8212; with several variations.</p>
	<p>Export Routes</p>
	<p>East to China: Prohibitively Long?</p>
	<p>One option is to go east across China. But this would mean constructing a pipeline of more than 3,000 kilometers to central China &#8212; as well as a 2,000-kilometer connection to reach the main population centers along the coast. Even with these formidable challenges, China National Petroleum Corporation is considering building a pipeline east from Kazakhstan to Chinese markets.</p>
	<p>Unocal had a team in Beijing just last week for consultations with the Chinese. Given China&#8217;s long-range outlook and its ability to concentrate resources to meet its own needs, China is almost certain to build such a line. The question is what will the costs of transporting oil through this pipeline be and what netback will the producers receive.</p>
	<p>South to the Indian Ocean: A Shorter Distance to Growing Markets</p>
	<p>A second option is to build a pipeline south from Central Asia to the Indian Ocean.</p>
	<p>One obvious potential route south would be across Iran. However, this option is foreclosed for American companies because of U.S. sanctions legislation. The only other possible route option is across Afghanistan, which has its own unique challenges.</p>
	<p>The country has been involved in bitter warfare for almost two decades. The territory across which the pipeline would extend is controlled by <strong>the Taliban</strong>, an Islamic movement that<strong> is not recognized as a government</strong> by most other nations. From the outset, <strong>we have made it clear that construction of our proposed <em>pipeline cannot begin until a recognized government is in place</em> that has the confidence of governments, lenders and our company.</strong></p>
	<p>In spite of this, <strong>a route through Afghanistan appears to be the best option with the fewest technical obstacles</strong>. It is the shortest route to the sea and has relatively favorable terrain for a pipeline. <strong>The route through Afghanistan is the one that would bring Central Asian oil closest to Asian markets and thus would be the <span style="text-decoration: underline">cheapest</span> in terms of transporting the <span style="text-decoration: underline">oil</span>.</strong></p>
	<p>Unocal envisions the creation of a Central Asian Oil Pipeline Consortium. The pipeline would become an integral part of a regional oil pipeline system that will utilize and gather oil from existing pipeline infrastructure in Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Russia.</p>
	<p>The 1,040-mile-long oil pipeline would begin near the town of Chardzhou, in northern Turkmenistan, and extend southeasterly through Afghanistan to an export terminal that would be constructed on the Pakistan coast on the Arabian Sea. Only about 440 miles of the pipeline would be in Afghanistan.</p>
	<p>This 42-inch-diameter pipeline will have a shipping capacity of one million barrels of oil per day. Estimated cost of the project &#8212; which is similar in scope to the Trans Alaska Pipeline &#8212; is about US$2.5 billion.</p>
	<p>There is considerable international and regional political interest in this pipeline. Asian crude oil importers, particularly from Japan, are looking to Central Asia and the Caspian as a new strategic source of supply to satisfy their desire for resource diversity. The pipeline benefits Central Asian countries because it would allow them to sell their oil in expanding and highly prospective hard currency markets. The pipeline would benefit Afghanistan, which would receive revenues from transport tariffs, and would promote stability and encourage trade and economic development. Although Unocal has not negotiated with any one group, and does not favor any group, we have had contacts with and briefings for all of them. We know that the different factions in Afghanistan understand the importance of the pipeline project for their country, and have expressed their support of it.</p>
	<p>A recent study for the World Bank states that the proposed <strong>pipeline from Central Asia across Afghanistan and Pakistan to the Arabian Sea would provide more favorable netbacks to oil producers</strong> through access to higher value markets than those currently being accessed through the traditional Baltic and Black Sea export routes.</p>
	<p>This is evidenced by the netback values producers will receive as determined by the World Bank study. For West Siberian crude, the netback value will increase by nearly $2.00 per barrel by going south to Asia. For a producer in western Kazakhstan, the netback value will increase by more than $1 per barrel by going south to Asia as compared to west to the Mediterranean via the Black Sea.</p>
	<p>Natural Gas Export</p>
	<p>Given the plentiful natural gas supplies of Central Asia, our aim is to link a specific natural resource with the nearest viable market. This is basic for the commercial viability of any gas project. As with all projects being considered in this region, the following projects face geo-political challenges, as well as market issues.</p>
	<p>Unocal and the Turkish company, Koc Holding A.S., are interested in bringing competitive gas supplies to the Turkey market. The proposed Eurasia Natural Gas Pipeline would transport gas from Turkmenistan directly across the Caspian Sea through Azerbaijan and Georgia to Turkey. Sixty percent of this proposed gas pipeline would follow the same route as the oil pipeline proposed to run from Baku to Ceyhan. Of course, the demarcation of the Caspian remains an issue.</p>
	<p>Last October, the Central Asia Pipeline, Ltd. (CentGas) consortium, in which Unocal holds an interest, was formed to develop a gas pipeline that will link Turkmenistan&#8217;s vast natural gas reserves in the Dauletabad Field with markets in Pakistan and possibly India. An independent evaluation shows that the field&#8217;s resources are adequate for the project&#8217;s needs, assuming production rates rising over time to 2 billion cubic feet of gas per day for 30 years or more.</p>
	<p>In production since 1983, the Dauletabad Field&#8217;s natural gas has been delivered north via Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Russia to markets in the Caspian and Black Sea areas. The proposed 790-mile pipeline will open up new markets for this gas, travelling from Turkmenistan through Afghanistan to Multan, Pakistan. A proposed extension would link with the existing Sui pipeline system, moving gas to near New Delhi, where it would connect with the existing HBJ pipeline. By serving these additional volumes, the extension would enhance the economics of the project, leading to overall reductions in delivered natural gas costs for all users and better margins. As currently planned, the CentGas pipeline would cost approximately $2 billion. A 400-mile extension into India could add $600 million to the overall project cost.</p>
	<p>As with the proposed Central Asia Oil Pipeline, <strong>CentGas cannot begin construction until an internationally recognized Afghanistan government is in place</strong>. For the project to advance, it must have international financing, government-to-government agreements and government-to-consortium agreements.</p>

			<title>Al Qaeda Is a Complete Fabrication - a Made in the USA production.</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100203-192817</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/made-in-usa.jpg" alt="made-in-usa.jpg" title="made-in-usa.jpg"  class="center" width="400" height="282" /></p>
	<p>In the BBC&#8217;s documentary called &#8220;<a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/3755686.stm"><strong>The Power of Nightmares</strong></a>&#8220; top CIA officials openly admit that Al Qaeda is a total and complete fabrication, never having existed at any time. This highly revealing BBC documentary digs deep into the roots of the war on terror, only to find that much of the widespread fear in the post-9/11 world has been fabricated by those in power for their own interests.  Fear has been used widely in the media to manipulate the public into giving up civil liberties and turning over power to elite groups with their own hidden agendas. The Power of Nightmares clearly demonstrates that the nightmare vision of a powerful, united terrorist organization waiting to strike our societies is largely an illusion. Wherever the BBC team looked for Al Qaeda, from the mountains of Afghanistan to the sleeper cells in America, they found that we are chasing a phantom enemy.  The <a href="http://www.archive.org/details/ThePowerOfNightmaresDVD">documentary</a> exposes the Bush administration&#8217;s need for a reason that complied with the Laws so they could go after &#8220;the bad guy of their choice&#8221; namely laws that had been set in place to protect us from mobs and &#8220;criminal organizations&#8221; such as the Mafia. They paid Jamal al Fadl, hundreds of thousands of dollars to back the U.S. Government&#8217;s story of Al Qaeda, a &#8220;group&#8221; or criminal organization they could &#8220;legally&#8221; go after. </p>
	<p>&#8220;Al Qaeda is not an organization. Al Qaeda is a way of working &#8230; but this has the hallmark of that approach.&#8221;  People the US claim to be Al Qaeda are not Al Qaeda they are actually POWs and Resistance Fighters, taken from the countries the US illegally attacked.  They are POWs and Resistance Fighters who have been illegally deported, tortured and murdered by the US and NATO forces .  The people who are fighting to free their country and countrymen from the illegal US and NATO invasion and occupations are called Al Qaeda by the US government because the US government needed an enemy.  If the US people knew the truth that Al Qaeda doesn&#8217;t exist the US would not be in Iraq or Afghanistan.  Al Qaeda is the US government propaganda, used to falsely and illegally justify the US and NATO invasion and occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan.  Both attacks, wars and occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan are deemed by US, Canadian and International Law as crimes against peace, crimes against humanity,  wars of aggression and war crimes.  The Iraqi, Afghan and Taliban people the US call terrorists are guilty of no crime.  The Iraqi, Afghan and Taliban people are doing exactly as any country would do if attacked and occupied by a foreign state&#8217;s military, they are resisting.  They are freedom fighters.  Their actions of killing US and NATO soldiers are legal as their battles against the US and NATO forces are one of self-defense whereas the actions of the US and NATO are clearly attacks of aggression - war crimes.  The US, Canadian and NATO countries are the terrorists.  The US, Canadian and NATO countries are the enemy as they attacked Iraq and Afghanistan.  Iraq and Afghanistan did not attack the US, Canada or any other NATO country.  The people of Iraq and Afghanistan are the innocent victims of US, Canadian and NATO wars of aggression, crimes against peace, crimes against humanity and war crimes - kidnapping, deporting, torture and murder.</p>
	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/ghost-buster.jpg" alt="ghost-buster.jpg" title="ghost-buster.jpg"  class="center" width="260" height="235" /> </p>
	<p>On June 16, 2004 <a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5223932/">staff members of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States testified</a> that Osama bin Laden met with a top Iraqi official in 1994 but found &#8220;<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_A77N5WKWM">no credible evidence&#8221; of a link between Iraq and Al Qaeda in attacks against the United States</a>.   No link has ever been found between Al Qaeda and Iraq or Al Qaeda and Afghanistan because Al Qaeda does not exist.  Al Qaeda Is a Complete Fabrication.  The CIA is trying to tell us something that they publicly can&#8217;t with their &#8220;official&#8221; <a href="https://www.cia.gov/news-information/cia-the-war-on-terrorism/dci-counterterrorist-center-terrorist-buster-logo.html">terrorist buster logo</a>. They are stating that terrorists are like ghosts. Everyone is afraid of them, but nobody has proof they even exist.</p>
	<p>Another eye-opening video available online for free viewing is <a href="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3105519703637733227#"><strong>Unconstitutional</strong></a>. In this documentary, interviews with ranking members of Congress, top legal experts, and even a former CIA chief describe many insidious efforts to take away freedoms guaranteed under the US Constitution for over 200 years.</p>
	<p>Compelling video footage shows US citizens, from law-abiding store clerks to a US Olympian, who have been the victims of unconstitutional policies established under the Patriot Act. Members of Congress describe the replacement of the previously agreed upon Patriot Act by another version quietly slipped into its place just hours before the final vote in Congress, leaving no one time to read the many devastating changes inserted at the last minute.</p>
	<p><a href="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3105519703637733227#"><strong>Unconstitutional: The War on Our Civil Liberties</strong></a>, is the third in a series of Public Interest Pictures films that follows <a href="http://www.unprecedented.org/UnprecedentedFirstPage.html"><strong>Unprecedented: The 2000 Presidential Election</strong></a> and <a href="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7371253996117324045#"><strong>Uncovered: The War on Iraq</strong></a>. True to their legacy, Unconstitutional provides the facts and stories that illuminate administration lies, wrongheaded policies, and the real victims of these actions&#8211;the American people. Here, you&#8217;ll get the real story behind the USA PATRIOT Act and other administration policies that tries, illegally, to strip the US people of their Constitutional Rights and Freedoms.  Their goal is to one day permanently suspend the United States Constitution after launching another attack against their own country, the US, and falsely blame the totally fictitious terrorist organization they call Al Qaeda.  They will launch another 9/11 style attack against the US but this time they will declare Martial Law.   </p>
	<p>The martial law in the U.S. is closely tied with the right of habeas corpus, which is in essence the right to a hearing on lawful imprisonment, or more broadly, the supervision of law enforcement by the judiciary. The ability to suspend habeas corpus is often equated with martial law. Article 1, Section 9 of the U.S. Constitution states, &#8220;The Privilege of the Writ of <strong>Habeas Corpus <span style="text-decoration: underline">shall not be suspended</span></strong>, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.&#8221;</p>
	<p>In United States law, martial law is limited by several court decisions that were handed down between the American Civil War and World War II. In 1878, Congress passed the<strong> Posse Comitatus Act</strong>, which <strong>forbids military involvement in domestic law enforcement without congressional approval</strong>. On October 1, 2002 United States Northern Command was established (in direct violation of the Posse Comitatus Act) to provide command and control of Department of Defense homeland defense efforts and to coordinate defense support of civil authorities.[11].</p>
	<p>On June 15, 1995, Norman Olson, along with militia leaders from other states, testified before the United States Senate Subcommittee on Terrorism. Olson&#8217;s opening statement included the following:</p>
	<p>   <em> One other important point needs to be made. Since The Constitution is the limiting document upon the government,<strong> the government cannot become greater than the granting power</strong>. That is, the servant cannot become greater than its master. Therefore,<strong> should the chief executive or the other branch of government or all branches together act to suspend The Constitution under a rule of martial law,<span style="text-decoration: underline"> all power granted to government would be cancelled and differed back to the granting power. That is the people</span>.</strong> And I&#8217;ll conclude with this statement: Martial law shall NOT be possible in this country as long as the people recognize the bill of rights as inalienable.</em></p>
	<p><strong>Al Jazeera used by the US government as it&#8217;s propaganda media outlet for its &#8220;War of Terror&#8221;</strong></p>
	<p>Al Jazeera is the largest and most controversial Arabic News Channel in the Middle East, offering news coverage 24 hours a day from around the world and focusing on the hottest regions of conflict.  Founded in 1996, and based in Qatar, the Al Jazeera news network is the fastest growing network among Arab communities and Arabic speaking people around the world.   It has been the main propaganda news media for the US immediately following the September 11, 2001 attacks, when the US government paid Al Jazeera to broadcast videos in which Osama bin Laden and Sulaiman Abu Ghaith defending and justifying the attacks.  That broadcast has since been proven by both US government and International government officials as fakes.  The fake video tapes that were sent to Al Jazeera through the CIA was created in the US at  Allied Media Corp.  </p>
	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/Allied_Media_corp.jpg" alt="Allied_Media_corp.jpg" title="Allied_Media_corp.jpg"  class="center" width="350" height="280" /><br />
Every time Al Jazeera reported on a new video or audio from Al Qaeda or bin Laden which makes threats against the US the audio or video was actually made in the studios of Allied Media Corp.  The financial trail connects the Bush administration to Allied Media Corp.  Government documents reveal the work that Allied Media Corp was paid  to do for the Bush administration to terrorize the American people.  The Bush administration was able to strip the American people of their inalienable rights and freedoms because of the video and audio tapes that were made by Allied Media Corp and aired by Al Jazeera.  The US government paid Allied Media Corp to produce video tapes and audio tapes that made terrorist threats against the American people.  This is essentially the US making threats against itself.   </p>
	<p>Allied Media Corp has recently erased it&#8217;s connection with Al Jazeera.  Its website use to have an entire section dedicated to Al Jazeera and it programming that was made in the US under the direction of Allied Media Corp.  To further distance itself from its former main financial backer, the Bush administration, Allied Media Corp now markets itself under the name AMC.  To try and erase its involvement in US government propaganda and terrorism via Bush administration ordered fake Al Qaeda tapes Allied Media Corp is not only erasing all Al Jazeera connection but is contacting independent news agencies including nbGAzette.com to get independent news agencies to erase any and all mention of connection between Allied Media Corp and Al Jazeera.  This is our response.  The truth cannot be concealed.  The truth cannot be altered.  History cannot be changed.  </p>
	<p>The following link no longer works.  It existed for the entire George W Bush presidency.  <a href="http://www.allied-media.com/aljazeera/">Allied Media Corp makes Al Jazeera terrorists threat videos</a> </p>
	<p>Every video, every audio tape of bin Laden or the phantom Al Qaeda making threats against the US has been made in the USA.  The studios of Allied Media Corp has been making the videos and audio tapes for the former Bush administration to further the US War of Terror and wars of aggression against its own people and other sovereign nations.  The post 9/11 video tape of bin Laden supposedly confessing to carrying out the attacks against the US was a fake and the person we are suppose to believe is bin Laden is an actor.  George W Bush used Allied Media Corp to create videos and audio tapes of actors portraying bin Laden and al Qaeda making threats against the US in order to influence and coerce Congress into giving him dictatorial powers and rob the US people of their civil rights and freedoms.  bin Laden did not take away your freedom the Bush White House did.  bin Laden did not attack the US on September 11, 2001 your own government did.  bin Laden didn&#8217;t bankrupt the US your own government did - throughout history all major empires have collapsed as a result of very costly prolonged wars of aggression campaigns.  bin Laden and Saddam Hussein didn&#8217;t kill over 1 million innocent Iraqi civilians your US government did - first the Clinton administration, then George W Bush and Dick Cheney&#8217;s administration and now Obama&#8217;s administration. Al Qaeda is and always has been a Made in the USA terrorist organization.  Terrorism is a Made in the US political agenda.  </p>
	<p>Just as dreams are not real, neither are these nightmares.  The idea that we are threatened by a hidden and organised terrorist network is an illusion.  It is a myth that has spread unquestioned through politics, the security services and the international media.   The terrorist organization Al Qaeda does not exist and never did.  Al Qaeda is the US government&#8217;s code name for illegal CIA terrorist operations against foreign states and the US people.

			<title>After WWII we vowed NEVER AGAIN yet today the US government is picking up where Nazi Germany left off</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100202-191809</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/adolf_hitler.jpg" alt="adolf_hitler.jpg" title="adolf_hitler.jpg"  class="center" width="300" height="414" /> </p>
	<p>History and concrete evidence confirms that both the Bush and the Obama administrations are mimicking the actions and aggressions of Hitler&#8217;s Nazi Germany.  The entire World is negligent in their duty to prevent the revival of Nazism (Nazism is the ideology and practice of the Nazis, especially the policy of racist nationalism, national expansion, and state control of the economy).  International agencies like the UN, NATO and the ICC are all either stupid or complicit for allowing the Bush and Obama administrations to continue their wars of aggression.  It is absolute lunacy for the World to see the facts before them and not act to end the senseless slaughter of millions of innocent people.  The facts clearly declare that Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan or Iran did not have anything to do with the criminal acts (hijackings) of September 11, 2001 yet they are the target of military attacks by the US.  No country did anything against the US or any other country to warrant these unprovoked attacks by the US.  All US attacked countries are victims.  The US is the aggressor.  The US attacked and now occupy Afghanistan and Iraq.  They are now planning to attack Iran.    </p>
	<p>The people of Afghanistan and Iraq need our help to end the unlawful occupations of their country.  The Afghan and Iraqi people who are resisting the US with lethal force are not terrorists they are defending their country from an enemy that has attacked and now occupy their country.  If Canada were attacked by the US Canadians would take up arms against the invading enemy.  If the US was actually attacked (no armed attack by a foreign country occurred on 9/11) the American people would also take up arms and defend their country.  </p>
	<p>The people of Afghanistan and Iraq are doing what any loyal and patriotic person would do - defend their country and family from the daily attacks and continued occupation of their homeland by a foreign country.   Even if Iran is providing weapons to the Iraqi Resistance, Iran is not a terrorist state the US is.  Iran has not attacked and does not occupy any country.  The US has attacked 2 countries without provocation.  The US continues to attack and kill the civilians of Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan, countries that never attacked the US.  The US has murdered over 1 million civilians in their wars of aggression they call &#8220;War on Terror&#8221;.  The entire legal system in the US and around the World are negligent in their duty to uphold the law.  They are negligent for allowing the criminals and terrorists in the US White House to continue to attack and murder innocent people.  They are negligent for not stopping the Bush and the Obama White House from plunging the World into another World War.       </p>
	<p>Adm. Michael Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said that the Pentagon is planning &#8220;potential&#8221; military actions against Iran.  Planning for and preparing for any military action against any country without provocation, cause or self-defense is a crime. </p>
	<p>In 1950, the Nuremberg Tribunal defined Crimes against Peace, in Principle 6, specifically Principle VI(a), submitted to the United Nations General Assembly, as:<br />
    (i) Planning, preparation, initiation or waging of a war of aggression or a war in violation of international treaties, agreements or assurances;</p>
	<p>During the trial, the chief American prosecutor, Robert H. Jackson, stated:</p>
	<p>    To initiate a war of aggression, therefore, is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole. </p>
	<p>Over 50 years ago the US wrote the laws that defined what is a war crime and they made it law so as to prevent any future wars of aggression and crimes against humanity.  Today it is the US government which is breaking every law that has been written and passed to safeguard the World from another World War.  Today the US tortures POWs.  Today the US publicly threatens another country with nuclear annihilation.  The US is planning to nuke Iran and has already tried twice but thankfully someone in the US Air Force has thwarted both unlawful, inhuman, immoral and crime against humanity attacks.  While campaigning for the Democratic Presidential Nomination Hillary Clinton publicly threatened to wipe Iran off of the face of the Earth if she became president.  </p>
	<p>Addressing the United Nations on the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, then United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan remarked, &#8220;On occasions such as this, rhetoric comes easily. We rightly say &#8216;never again.&#8217; But action is much harder. Since the Holocaust the world has, to its shame, failed more than once to prevent or halt genocide.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Following World War II, the international community cried &#8220;never again&#8221; in response to the Holocaust, and the newly formed United Nations adopted the Genocide Convention as a pledge to ensure that such horrors would never be repeated. Since that time, however, the world community has failed to prevent the occurrence of genocide in places like Cambodia (Khmer Rouge), Iraq (US 2003 unprovoked attack), Bosnia (both by their own government and the unlawful bombings ordered by Bill Clinton that killed more civilians than the civil warring factions), Darfur and Rwanda.</p>
	<p><strong>World Leaders Decry Unprovoked US Attack against Iraq</strong><br />
March 20, 2003</p>
	<p><em>The declaration of war brought fierce criticism from world leaders today, as Russia accused the US of committing &#8220;a big political mistake&#8221; and France expressed its &#8220;regret&#8221; over the strikes.</p>
	<p>French President Jacques Chirac, in his first public comments since the bombing of Iraq began, said he hoped for a quick end to the fighting .</p>
	<p>In a brief televised speech, he said: &#8220;France regrets this action taken without approval of the United Nations. We hope these operations will be as rapid and least deadly as possible, and that they don&#8217;t lead to a humanitarian catastrophe.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Mr Chirac said his country would continue to support the United Nations as the forum to solve &#8220;crises which bloody and threaten the world&#8221;. He said: &#8220;It is the only legitimate framework to build peace in Iraq as elsewhere.&#8221;</p>
	<p>However, the French president was muted by comparison with other statesmen, such as the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, who demanded a quick end to the war.</p>
	<p>Mr Putin told senior ministers in the Kremlin this morning: &#8220;Military action can in no way be justified. Military action is a big political error.&#8221;</p>
	<p>If the world submitted to the right of might then no country would be safe, he said. &#8220;It is for these reasons that Russia insists on an end as quickly as possible to military action.&#8221;</p>
	<p>It was unusually sharp language from Putin, who has fought hard to preserve a new partnership with the US president, George Bush, while at the same time opposing US plans to topple the Iraqi president, Saddam Hussein, by force.</p>
	<p>China was even more outspoken, accusing the US of starting an illegitimate conflict and &#8220;violating the norms of international behaviour&#8221;.</p>
	<p>The Chinese foreign ministry spokesman, Kong Quan, told a regular press briefing the attack had been &#8220;carried out in disregard for the opposition of the international community&#8221;.</p>
	<p>&#8220;We express regret and disappointment,&#8221; Mr Kong said. &#8220;We urge the relevant countries to stop using force, to stop military action. The Iraqi question must return to the track of political settlement within the UN framework.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Stressing that China believed the situation in Iraq could still be solved peacefully, Mr Kong went on: &#8220;We are deeply concerned about the loss of lives and property that might follow. We are also worried about its impact on peace and the development of the world.</p>
	<p>&#8220;As to the next step, the Chinese government will continue its efforts towards peace&#8221;.</p>
	<p>The UN secretary-general, Kofi Annan, called on both sides in the conflict in Iraq to do everything possible to protect civilians during the fighting.</p>
	<p>In a press conference this afternoon he said: &#8220;My thoughts today are with the Iraqi people, who face yet another ordeal. I hope that all parties will scrupulously observe the requirements of international humanitarian law and will do everything in their power to shield the civilian population from the grim consequences of war.</p>
	<p>&#8220;The United Nations, for its part, will do whatever it can to bring them assistance and support.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Islamic countries lined up to attack the legitimacy of the war. There was a strong response from Iran, where the foreign minister, Kamal Kharrazi, was quoted by the Islamic Republic News Agency as saying: &#8220;American military operations on Iraq are unjustifiable and illegitimate.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Mr Kharrazi stressed that Iran would not take action in the conflict &#8220;to the benefit of either side&#8221;. Iran, along with Iraq and North Korea, forms part of the &#8220;axis of evil&#8221; identified by President Bush last year.</p>
	<p>Asian Islamic leaders addressed the press within minutes of President Bush&#8217;s declaration of war, saying the US would pay a heavy price for the conflict.</p>
	<p>&#8220;This is not an attack on Islam but an attack on humanity,&#8221; said Syafii Maarif, head of the 30-million-strong moderate Muhammadiyah Muslim group in Indonesia, the world&#8217;s most populous Muslim country.</p>
	<p>His views were echoed by Abdul Hadi Awang, the president of the conservative Islamic opposition in Malaysia, who said: &#8220;This despicable war exposes the ugliness of America and its allies.&#8221; </em></p>
	<p>It is time for us to ally ourselves to oppose the US axis of evil.  Enough is enough.  How do we end this US aggression against innocent sovereign states, without injuring or killing any innocent civilians?  How do we stop any further unprovoked and unlawful attacks of foreign sovereign states by the US?  We apply the game of chess and send our special forces to remove the leaders of the United States who have started these unlawful wars of aggressions.

			<title>The international community have the legal right to go after even US heads of state engaged in illegal aggressive wars.</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100201-183258</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/McMillanTac-50.jpg" alt="McMillanTac-50.jpg" title="McMillanTac-50.jpg"  class="center" width="300" height="190" /> </p>
	<p>In the game of chess the objective is to remove your opponent&#8217;s king in as few moves as possible. The object of the game is to checkmate your opponent&#8217;s king, whereby the king is under immediate attack (in &#8220;check&#8221;) and there is no way to remove it from attack on the next move. The game is over as soon as you capture your opponent&#8217;s king and your opponent surrenders to you. <strong>Wars of aggression can be ended quickly simply by applying the game of chess to your self-defense strategy</strong>. Defend your people by taking the course of action that will <strong>quickly capture and remove your opponent&#8217;s leadership</strong>.</p>
	<p>There is absolutely no need, cause or justification for anyone to start a war.  Any international incident can be resolved peacefully. <strong>Those who start wars are nothing more than <span style="text-decoration: underline">criminals</span> with a criminal intent to cause the death of another human being</strong>. The most effective course of action to end any war is to go after the person or persons who gave the order to attack another country. One person does not have the authority to launch a war against another especially in a democratic society. If a leader of one country decides to go to war with another country that leader is <strong>committing crimes that include crimes against peace, crimes against humanity and war crimes.</strong></p>
	<p><strong>International law and domestic law allow lethal force to be used in self-defense against armed attacks. </strong></p>
	<p>Whether it&#8217;s George W Bush or Barack Hussein Obama engaged in an unprovoked attacks against Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran and Pakistan or the United States own terrorist cell, the CIA, kidnapping foreign citizens from around the World, it&#8217;s legal to use lethal force in response to those kinds of attacks. There&#8217;s no special protection given to heads of state that protects them from the otherwise lawful use of lethal force in self-defense.  Nuremberg established that heads of state have no immunity from responsibility for aggressive war. There&#8217;s no logical legal principle that says it&#8217;s better to spare George W Bush or Barack Hussein Obama&#8217;s life, when they are the head war criminals who started the war and continue to wage wars of aggressions against sovereign foreign states and kill and continue to kill tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of innocent people.</p>
	<p><em>Aggression unopposed becomes a contagious disease.</em> ~ Jimmy Carter</p>
	<p><strong>Laws of armed conflict</strong></p>
	<p><strong>Any uniformed member of the Military is a lawful target under the laws of armed conflict.</strong> <em>If he is the head policy maker (commander-in-chief, prime minister, president, emperor, chancellor, king or queen) in deciding to launch an aggressive war, then he&#8217;s committing an international crime; denying him any right to the kind of protection we give hospital workers or Red Cross workers or the like.</em> If we want <strong>to deter aggression, we have to extract a cost from those who are making the decisions</strong>. A warmongering leader is not willing to put his own safety at risk, and so it&#8217;s very important that we make it clear that we have the legal right to go after even heads of state engaged in massive international aggression.  George W Bush needlessly and recklessly sacrificed over 4000 of his country&#8217;s young men and women in his war against Iraq. He and Obama are certainly willing to give up thousands more in their wars of terrorism and aggression against Iraq and Afghanistan and threats and acts of aggression against Iran, Pakistan and Yemen. George W Bush was not willing to put his own safety at risk, and so it&#8217;s very important that we make it clear that <strong>the US people and the international community have the legal right to go after even heads of state engaged in massive international aggression</strong>.</p>
	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/Checkmate.jpg" alt="Checkmate.jpg" title="Checkmate.jpg"  class="center" width="300" height="266" /><br />
<strong>The only logical and legal course of action to defend ones country and countrymen from an unlawful military attack from another country is to hold the person or persons who gave the order to attack, accountable for their criminal acts.</strong>  Instead of retaliating against the people of the country whose leader ordered the attack on your country and countrymen one should only attack those leaders who gave the order. No one else should suffer or pay for the crimes of the war leaders. <strong>Only the leaders who order their country to attack and murder the people of another country should suffer and pay with their lives.</strong> The Nuremberg Trial established &#8220;Legal Self-Defense&#8221; against wars of aggression, kidnappings, torture and acts of aggression against another state. </p>
	<p>The honorable and patriotic course of action to end any war is to target those leaders who gave the order to illegally attack, destroy and kill the people of another country. Every country and their people have the right to self-defense and their legal rights include only attacks against the attacking leadership, not against innocent civilians. As soon as the leader or leaders who gave the order to attack and kill your people are eliminated then the war will end. If someone takes over command of the military forces after the war leaders are eliminated and they too order more attacks against you and your country and your people, then they too are legal and legitimate targets. Infiltrating the enemy&#8217;s country and attacking only the leadership will end any war quickly and deter future warmongering leaders from ordering their armed froces to attack and kill another country and its people.</p>
	<p>Had the Allied nations succeeded in killing Adolf Hitler at the beginning of WWII the War would have ended a lot sooner and millions of lives would have been spared. A war that needlessly killed 23,100,000 Soviets, 449,800 English, 418,500 US, 5,600,000 Polish, 2,700,000 Japanese, 7,233,000 Germans, 567,600 French, 20,000,000 Chinese, 45,300 Canadians for an estimated death toll of roughly 72 million. </p>
	<p>If a team of snipers had been sent into Germany with the sole mission of killing Adolf Hilter six million European Jews would have been saved from the Holocaust.  Snipers are the biggest psychological deterrent on the battlefield. The mere rumor they&#8217;re on the battlefield can send shivers through the enemy ranks. Imagine what a team of snipers inserted behind enemy lines could do to the aggressor&#8217;s chain of command.  It does not matter how powerful a country might be. It would not matter if the aggressor had the most technologically advanced fighter jets, bombers, tank, or warships, once a sniper is able to infiltrate the aggressor&#8217;s country there is nowhere to hide. A good sniper could gain entry as a diplomat, tourist or business person. A good sniper would not need to smuggle in his or her weapon as he or she would have been trained to use the weapon of choice of the aggressive nation and acquire their weapon from the aggressive nation&#8217;s own police and military or even from citizens with hunting rifles. It took 3 weeks for the US law enforcement agencies to find and capture the Beltway sniper in October 2002 in Washington, D.C. How long would it take to find a team of highly trained and motivated snipers? That is if you even knew they were already in country. </p>
	<p><strong>The Nuremberg trials sets legal precedents in order to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war. </strong></p>
	<p>While the Nuremberg trials are, these days, seldom invoked or discussed, they were and still are, in the words of Tribunal President Sir Geoffrey Lawrence, &#8220;unique in the history of the jurisprudence of the world&#8221;. Among the most groundbreaking aspects was the drive to formally criminalise three categories of crimes, and to establish responsibility by individuals for these crimes. This was simply unprecedented.</p>
	<p>The effort to try the Germans in an international forum was directed in large part by the United States. The chief U.S. prosecutor, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Robert Jackson, opened the prosecution.</p>
	<p>Today, when the Nuremberg trials are remembered, they are remembered primarily for the prosecution and punishment of individuals for genocide. Equally important at the time though, especially in the first trial, was the focus on aggressive war.</p>
	<p>Thus, the first sentence of Justice Jackson&#8217;s opening statement: &#8220;The privilege of opening the first trial in history for crimes against the peace of the world imposes a grave responsibility.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Crimes against peace and the responsibility for them were defined in Article 6, the heart of the Charter of the IMT: &#8220;The tribunal&#8230;shall have the power to try and punish persons who&#8230;whether as individuals or as members of organisations, committed any of the following crimes&#8230;for which there shall be individual responsibility: (a) Crimes Against Peace, namely, planning, preparation, initiation or waging of a war of aggression or a war in violation of international treaties, agreements or assurances&#8230;&#8221;</p>
	<p>The desire was not only to punish individuals for crimes but to set an international moral and legal precedent for the future. Indeed, before the end of 1946, the United Nations General Assembly unanimously adopted Resolution 95 (1), affirming &#8220;the principles of International Law recognised by the Charter of the Nuremberg Tribunal and the judgment of the Tribunal.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Founded in the aftermath of World War II, the United Nations invoked in the first sentence of the preamble, the single most fundamental goal: &#8220;&#8230;to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our lifetime has brought untold sorrow to mankind&#8230;&#8221;</p>
	<p>To this end <strong>the United Nations Charter explicitly <span style="text-decoration: underline">forbids armed aggression and violations of the sovereignty of any state by any other state</span>, except in immediate self defense</strong> (Article 2, Sec. 4 and Articles 39 and 51).</p>
	<p><strong>Invoking the precedent set by the United States and the Allies at Nuremberg, there can be no doubt that the U.S. led invasion of Iraq in 2003 was a war of aggression.</strong> There was no imminent threat to American security nor to the security of the world. The invasion violated the U.N. Charter as well as U.N. Security Council Resolution #1441.</p>
	<p><strong>As a war of aggression, the invasion falls into the Nuremberg category of Crimes Against Peace. As such, there is individual responsibility for this crime.</strong></p>
	<p><em>Thus, if Americans chose to be bound by the precedent which they helped set and for which they punished leaders of World War II Germany, they would arrest and prosecute those individuals responsible for the invasion of Iraq: George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Colin Powell, Condoleezza Rice and their enablers in government and in the media.</em></p>
	<p>Those who justify the invasion of Iraq, invoking the U.S. self-declared mission to rid the world of evil, would do well to remember the words of Justice Jackson: &#8220;<strong>Our position is that whatever grievances a nation may have, however objectionable it finds the status quo, <span style="text-decoration: underline">aggressive warfare is an illegal means</span> for settling these grievances or for altering these conditions.</strong>&#8221;</p>
	<p>And, for those who have difficulty visualising American leaders as defendants in a criminal trial, Justice Jackson&#8217;s words again: &#8220;(T)he <strong>ultimate step in avoiding periodic wars</strong>, which are inevitable in a system of international lawlessness, <strong>is to make <span style="text-decoration: underline">statesmen</span> responsible to law</strong>. And let me make clear that while this law is first applied against German aggressors, <strong>the law includes, and if it is to serve a useful purpose it must condemn, aggression by any other nations, <span style="text-decoration: underline">including those which sit here now in judgement</span></strong>. <strong>We are able to do away with domestic tyranny and violence and aggression by those in power against the rights of their own people only when we <span style="text-decoration: underline">make all men answerable to the law</span>.</strong> This trial represents mankind&#8217;s desperate effort to <strong>apply the discipline of the law to statesmen who have used their powers of state to attack the foundations of the world&#8217;s peace and to commit aggression against the rights of their neighbours</strong>.&#8221;</p>
	<p>The Bush and Blair administrations commenced a war against Iraq and its people in defiance of the <strong>United Nations Security Council.</strong>  The Iraq war is unlawful because it was waged in contravention of international law. The relevant articles that <strong>prohibit one nation or alliance of nations waging war against any other nation or nations</strong> are embodied in Chapter VII of the 1945 United Nations Charter under the caption &#8220;Action with Respect to Threats to the Peace, Breaches of the Peace, and Acts of Aggression&#8221;.  <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">No member or members</span> of the United Nations are entitled to wage a war against any nation in defiance of the UN Security Council.</strong> It is also clear that a &#8220;war of choice&#8221; is not permitted. A &#8220;war of necessity&#8221; in self defense if attacked by another country is permitted under Article 51 &#8211; this too is a temporary measure till the Security Council takes steps necessary to maintain international peace and security. <strong>Article 51 <span style="text-decoration: underline">does not legitimize a pre-emptive war against any nation</span> on the pretext that there is an imminent threat of attack by the said nation</strong>.  </p>
	<p><strong>Aggressors do not have the legal right or authority to declare self-defense</strong>.  </p>
	<p>The people of Afghanistan and Iraq were attacked by the US.  The people of Afghanistan and Iraq are victims of the US wars of aggression.  The civilian population have been and are still being attacked by the US military - clearly defined as war crimes according to International and US laws.  The Taliban are not terrorists.  They were the legal governing political party of Afghanistan before the unlawful war of aggression by the US and NATO forces.  The Taliban are doing what every patriotic citizen would do to defend their country and countrymen when attacked by a foreign state - they are resisting.  The Taliban are Afghan civilians who have been forced to take up arms against the invaders in order to defend their country and fellow countrymen from the brutal and unlawful occupation.  The Taliban did not attack the US on September 11, 2001.  Iran did not attack the US on September 11, 2001.  There is no threat to the US from Iran. The US has been planning to attack Iran since the Bush administration.  Planning for such an attack is a criminal offense.  Planning for such an attack is a crime against peace and a crime against humanity.   The international community have the legal right to go after even US heads of state who have planned for, is planning for or engages in illegal aggressive wars.  </p>
	<p><em>&#8220;When freedom does not have a purpose, when it does not wish to know anything about the rule of law engraved in the hearts of men and women, when it does not listen to the voice of conscience, it turns against humanity and society.&#8221;</em> ~ Pope John Paul II

			<title>9/11 terrorist state, Saudi Arabia, still considered friends of the United States while countries that had nothing to do with attacking the US are called terrorists and attacked.</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100131-181411</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/US_Saudi_conspiracy.jpg" alt="US_Saudi_conspiracy.jpg" title="US_Saudi_conspiracy.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="437" /><br />
<em>The Saudi Royal family helped the US government enslave the US people by attacking the US on September 11, 2001.  Immediately after Saudi Arabia attacked the US the US government under George W Bush stripped the US people of their inalienable Constitutional Rights and Freedoms with the passing of the unpatriotic Patriot Act.  Today US president Obama, the first black president in US history, continues to work with the enemy of the United States to ensure that the American people remain slaves of the US government. &#8220;As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master. This expresses my idea of democracy. Whatever differs from this, to the extent of the difference, is no democracy.&#8221; ~  Abraham Lincoln August 1, 1858</em>   </p>
	<p>The hijackings of US Commercial airlines by Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirate and Egypt turned logic and rationality completely upside down.  Before 9/11 the US retaliated against the country or countries that attacked and killed any number of its people but after September 11, 2001 the US defied logic and rationality by attacking 2 innocent countries in retaliation for the attacks that evidence declares was financed by, recruited for by, trained by and executed by citizens of Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirate and Egypt.  The alleged 9/11 mastermind bin Laden is a billionaire Saudi with very close ties with the Saudi royal family.  Today instead of the US rightfully retaliating against Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirate and Egypt for the hijackings and killing of some 3000 US citizens the US made war of aggression plans to attack and occupy Afghanistan and Iraq, neither having anything to do with 9/11.   </p>
	<p>On Saturday January 30, 2010 it was disclosed that the Obama administration is quietly working with Saudi Arabia (the country with the majority of 9/11 hijackers) and other Persian Gulf allies to speed up arms sales and rapidly upgrade defenses for US military seized oil terminals and other key infrastructure in Iraq and Afghanistan.  The U.S. plans to triple the size of a 10,000-man protection force in Saudi Arabia, as part of a broader push that includes unprecedented coordination of air defenses and a future war of aggression between the U.S. and Arab militaries against Iran.  </p>
	<p>The military build up is an expansion of the George W. Bush war crimes administration to sell warplanes and missile systems to friendly Arab states to help the US attack Iran. The 9/11 attacking countries, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia are leading a region-wide military buildup that has resulted in more than $25 billion in U.S. arms purchases in the past two years alone.</p>
	<p>How many Iraqis took part in the hijackings of September 11, 2001? The correct answer is 0. How many Afghanistan citizens took part in the hijackings of 9/11? The correct answer is 0. How many foreign military war planes were used in the attacks of September 11, 2001? The correct answer is 0. What is the nationality of the accused mastermind of 9/11? The correct answer is Saudi Arabia. How many hijackers were from Saudi Arabia? The correct answer is fifteen of the attackers were from Saudi Arabia, two from the United Arab Emirates, one from Egypt, and one from Lebanon. Did the US attack the country that had the mastermind and the majority of hijackers that took part in attacks of September 11, 2001? The correct answer is no. The evidence is overwhelming that Saudi Arabia was the country that planned for and executed the attacks yet even today the US is arming the countries that attacked the United States of America on September 11, 2001.  </p>
	<p>The Afghan and Iraqi people are not terrorists for attacking the US and NATO troops who have attacked their country, destroyed their homes and businesses and slaughtered their people. Your government has inhumanly tortured hundreds, perhaps thousands of innocent people whose only crime is defending their country and fellow countrymen from the unlawful war of aggression and occupation of their country by the United States and NATO countries. </p>
	<p><em>&#8220;You may fool all the people some of the time, you can even fool some of the people all of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all the time.&#8221;</em> ~ Abraham Lincoln</p>
	<p>No matter where you go in the World each country has the same duty to protect their country and people from an armed attack from a foreign country. Each and every country have the exact same military code of conduct that bounds their citizens to the duty to defend themselves at all costs, including giving up your life in resistance to an attack and occupation. The United States Army Code of Conduct is duplicated around the World. Read the United States Code of Conduct and substitute the United States with countries like Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Syria, Russia, China, Canada or any other country. The duty to fight and guard ones country and way of life is the same in every country in the World. Duty bound to not surrender, to fight on until you are dead, to command others to fight and resist, to be silent when captured is universal because you do so to defend your freedom and your right for you and your countrymen to be free from unlawful attacks and occupations by a foreign military force. The Afghan and Iraqi people are duty bound and have every legal right to defend themselves and their country from the unlawful US attack and occupation of their country. They are not terrorists or the enemy - the US, Canada and other participating NATO countries are the terrorists and the enemy.</p>
	<p><em>&#8220;Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.&#8221;</em> ~ Abraham Lincoln November 19, 1863</p>
	<p>If Canada, England or France was attacked by a foreign country, the people of those countries would immediately organize a resistance movement to drive out the attacking military forces. Resistance is the logical and most patriotic duty and action that any citizen can take up when faced with a foreign military occupation of their country. Those who resist attacks and occupation are the ultimate heroes. Taking up arms to defend your country and fellow countrymen is courageous and honorable. Iraqi and Afghanistan citizens are not terrorists they are their country&#8217;s heroes - defending their country and countrymen from the unlawful US attacks and occupation. US propaganda labels the resistance as terrorists. US propaganda is used because if the US people realized that the Iraqi and Afghan people are the innocent victims of the Bush administration greed for oil the US would not be in either Iraq or Afghanistan. The US people don&#8217;t realize that it is solely the blame of the Bush administration and the Obama administration for the inevitable collapse of the US. The unlawful, unprovoked and unjustified wars of aggression against Iraq and Afghanistan is bankrupting the US.</p>
	<p><em>Let every American, every lover of liberty, every well wisher to his posterity, swear by the blood of the Revolution, never to violate in the least particular, the laws of the country; and never to tolerate their violation by others.</em> ~ Abraham Lincoln January 27, 1838</p>
	<p>John McCain: &#8220;&#8230; after we were able to help the Afghan freedom fighters and drive the Russians out of Afghanistan, we basically washed our hands of the region. Those &#8220;freedom fighters&#8221; were of course the mujaheddin in Afghanistan waging jihad against the Soviets, including one Osama bin Laden and one Zayman Al Zawahiri. We backed and funded them &#8230; we certainly supported the factions fighting alongside him, factions every bit as militantly Islamic as bin Laden&#8211;as even the State Department concedes.&#8221; </p>
	<p>On September 27, 2001 the FBI issued a Press Release naming the alleged hijackers of September 11, 2001. Nowhere does it name any Afghanistan (including the Taliban) or Iraqi national. 9/11 was not an act of war. It was a criminal act. It was an attack that launched the US agenda in the Middle East. Evidence already in possession by the US own FBI implicates Saudi Arabia for the attacks, as the majority of hijackers and the alleged mastermind were all Saudi nationals. Because of this evidence the US wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are illegal, as they are both wars of aggression. Anyone who has participated in and continues to participate in these unlawful wars are war criminals.</p>

			<title>The Cure for HIV / AIDS</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100126-214159</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/World_AIDS.jpg" alt="World_AIDS.jpg" title="World_AIDS.jpg"  class="center" width="200" height="345" /> </p>
	<p>In 1991 Hulda Regehr Clark discovered the source of HIV. Once the source became clear the cure became obvious. But would it work? She cured 53 cases in a row, all using her method. In her book <strong>The Cure for All Diseases</strong> she reveals NEW research findings that shows all diseases have simple explanations and cures once their true cause is known. This book describes the causes of both common and extraordinary diseases and gives specific instructions for their cure. The book contains many case histories of diabetes, high blood pressure, seizures, chronic fatigue syndrome, migraines, Alzheimer&#8217;s Parkinsons, multisclerosis, and others showing that all of these can be simply cured!</p>
	<p>The Basis of the her discoveries:</p>
	<p>HIV is a virus.<br />
AIDS is a condition.<br />
Sometimes they occur together.<br />
Sometimes they occur separately.</p>
	<p>HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus.<br />
AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome</p>
	<p>Hulda Regehr Clark discovered that <strong>the human intestinal fluke (Fasciolopsis buskii) is the source of the HIV virus</strong>. This <strong>parasite</strong> typically lives in the intestine where it might do little harm, causing only colitis, Crohn&#8217;s disease, or irritable bowel syndrome, or perhaps nothing at all. But if it <strong>invades</strong> a different organ, like <strong>the uterus or the kidneys or liver, it does a great deal of harm. If it establishes itself in the thymus, it causes HIV/AIDS!</strong></p>
	<p>It only establishes itself in the thymus in some people. These people have benzene in their bodies. <strong>All HIV patients (100%) have both benzene and a stage of the intestinal fluke in their thymuses</strong>. <strong>The <span style="text-decoration: underline">solvent</span> <em>benzene</em> is responsible for letting the fluke establish itself in the thymus</strong>. In order to get HIV, you must have both the parasite and benzene in your body.  The HIV virus belongs to this fluke. It is not difficult to kill this parasite and all its stages.</p>
	<p>&#8220;AIDS is a condition. When the thymus gland cannot &#8220;make&#8221; enough T cells, your immunity is lowered. <strong>Benzene is the cause of AIDS</strong>. Different toxins accumulate in different organs. If you eat or rub in the tiniest bit of benzene it goes directly to the thymus. It damages the thymus so much that everything else is allowed to land there, too: The <strong>mercury</strong> from metal tooth fillings, the copper from your copper water pipes etc. Is it any wonder that the thymus can&#8217;t turn out T cells when it is full of bits of your toothpaste, your hand lotion, your hair spray, toxic food and beverages?&#8221; Dr. Hulda Clark. From her book &#8220;The Cure for HIV/AIDS&#8221;</p>
	<p>The human species is now heavily infested with parasites, particularly the intestinal fluke Fasciolopsis buskii, the sheep liver fluke Fasciola hepatica, the pancreatic fluke of cattle Eurytrema pancreatica, the human liver fluke Clonorchis sinensis and the common roundworm, Ascaris. The increase in fluke parasitism is due to the establishment of a new &#8220;biological reservoir&#8221; in cattle, fowl and household pets. The increase in Ascaris parasitism is probably due to harboring of household pets.</p>
	<p>At the same time, microcontamination of the human food supply with derivatives of the petroleum industry has occurred; these include solvents, antiseptics and numerous products used directly in the food industry. <strong>In the presence of benzene, Fasciolopsis buskii can complete its entire life cycle in the human body</strong>, not requiring a snail as an intermediate host, as it usually does. Other solvents contributing to parasitism include isopropyl alcohol, methanol, xylene, and toluene which now occur as residues in our foods and pollute our body products such as toothpaste, mouthwash, lotions and cosmetics. These solvents are also contaminants of animal feed, and thus are responsible for establishing the new biological reservoir or source of infection of flukes.</p>
	<p>Different solvents accumulate preferentially in different organs, a phenomenon known as organotropism. <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">Benzene</span> accumulates in the thymus, resulting in damage to the thymus and completion of the life cycle of Fasciolopsis in the thymus.</strong> <strong>A stage in the life cycle of Fasciolopsis brings with it the HIV virus</strong>. This stage is normally found in snails, and indeed, I have found many snails infected with HIV. In the human,<strong> its preferred tissues of colonization are the thymus and penis in the male and the thymus and vagina in the female</strong>. The HIV virus has not yet become a human virus, since it disappears within 24 hours after the last fluke stage has been destroyed. However, it could become a true human virus through mutation, no doubt. For this reason it is of paramount importance to end this new kind of parasitism in humans quickly.</p>
	<p><strong>Removal of all solvents from the patient&#8217;s lifestyle and destruction of all fluke stages as well as elimination of undercooked beef, turkey, chicken and dairy products in the diet results in quick recovery, generally less than one week, from HIV infection.</strong> HIV/AIDS could be eradicated in a very short time by clearing our food animals and household pets of fluke parasites and by monitoring all food and feed for solvents.</p>
	<p>The cause of benzene accumulation in some persons and not in others appears to be due to a lack of a vitamin, riboflavin (vitamin B2), eating more of a common food toxin, 4,5 benzopyrene, and more of a mycotoxin, zearalenone. </p>
	<p>4,5 benzopyrene is present in grilled, broiled (flame heated) foods, even ordinary toast, while zearalenone is plentiful in chips, popcorn and brown rice. </p>
	<p><strong>Vitamin B2, 100 mg</strong>. This is the vitamin that <strong>helps detoxify benzene</strong>! Take one to three a day. While recovering from AIDS you need 3 tablets three times a day.</p>
	<p>Since developmental stages of the intestinal fluke are found in blood, breast milk, saliva, semen, and urine and can be seen directly in these body fluids using a low power microscope, it follows that this parasite can be transmitted not only through sexual contact and blood, but by kissing on the mouth and breast feeding, and childbearing. However, the <strong>recipient would develop HIV/AIDS only if benzene were accumulated in his or her body.</strong></p>
	<p><strong>The herbal parasite cleanse</strong></p>
	<p>Getting rid of all parasites would be absolutely impossible using clinical medicines that can kill only one or two parasites each. Such medicines also tend to make you quite ill. Imagine taking 10 such drugs to kill a dozen of your parasites! Good news, perhaps, for the drug makers but not for you.</p>
	<p>Yet three herbs can rid you of over 100 types of parasites! And without so much as a headache! Without nausea! Without any interference with any drug that you are already on! Does this sound too fantastic? Just too good to be true? They are natures gift to us.The herbs are:</p>
	<p>* Black Walnut Hulls (from the black walnut tree)<br />
* Wormwood (from the Artemisia shrub)<br />
* Common Cloves (from the clove tree)</p>
	<p>These three herbs must be used together. Black walnut hull and wormwood kill adults and developmental stages of at least 100 parasites. Cloves kill the eggs. Only if you use them together will you rid yourself of parasites. If you kill only the adults, the tiny stages and eggs will soon grow into new adults. If you kill only the eggs, the million stages already loose in your body will soon grow into adults and make more eggs. They must be used together as a single treatment.</p>
	<p><strong>Benzene, the cause of AIDS and Cigarette Smoke</strong></p>
	<p>Benzene is present in cigarette smoke and accounts for half of all human exposure to this health hazard. Short-term, high level exposure to benzene, through inhalation or ingestion, causes damage to the central nervous system and can lead to:</p>
	<p>* paralysis<br />
* coma<br />
* convulsions<br />
* dizziness<br />
* sleepiness<br />
* rapid heart rate<br />
* tightness in the chest<br />
* tremors<br />
* rapid breathing</p>
	<p>Long-term exposure to benzene can cause:</p>
	<p>* decreased red blood cells through damage to bone marrow<br />
* anemia<br />
* leukemia<br />
* excessive bleeding<br />
* genetic damage<br />
* negative effects on the immune system</p>
	<p>Benzene is a known cause of acute myleoid leukemia, and cigarette smoke is a major source of benzene exposure. Among U.S. smokers, 90% of benzene exposures come from cigarettes.</p>

			<title>Fake H1N1 pandemic declared solely for profit.</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100126-182037</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/vaccine_profit.jpg" alt="vaccine_profit.jpg" title="vaccine_profit.jpg"  class="center" width="213" height="260" /> </p>
	<p>Evidence is now coming to light that the World Health Organization deliberately declared a pandemic for the Swine Flu in April 2009 for the sole purpose of profitable gain.  The beneficiaries of this Global fraud are the drug pusher industry, the Obama Administration - to push through Obama&#8217;s health care reform bill and finance construction of new &#8220;No Cure&#8221; research labs.  </p>
	<p>The WHO was promised very lucrative research grants and funding to construct new research labs if they went along with the drug pusher companies and Obama&#8217;s fake public health threat.  In exchange for declaring a fake Swine Flu pandemic (later called the H1N1 pandemic by the WHO so as not to reveal their usage of the exact same terrorism ploy where the Gerald Ford Administration conspired to mandatory vaccinate the entire US population against the also fake swine flu outbreak of 1976) the WHO received $millions for research grants and brand new buildings like the one in Louisiana.  The  Louisiana premier biomedical research center started construction on a new $25 million, state-funded clinical research building. The expansion at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center is expected to be completed in 18 months and to bring 300 new jobs to the facility.   &#8216;&#8217;</p>
	<p>On Jan 6th, 2010  is was announced that UNL has also been awarded $8 million in federal stimulus funds from the National Institutes of Health to expand the Ken Morrison Life Sciences Research Center, home to the Nebraska Center for Virology.</p>
	<p>The grant will enable UNL to construct a 26,000-square-foot laboratory wing on the north side of the Morrison building on East Campus.  The addition will include up to seven research laboratories, lab support facilities, and office and seminar space using the modular laboratory planning approach featured in the original building.</p>
	<p>Preliminary planning is complete and the design for the addition is being developed. Bids are expected to be let early 2011, construction is slated to begin spring 2011 and the addition should be completed by summer 2012.</p>
	<p><strong>WHO modifies pandemic definition to suit a financial agenda</strong></p>
	<p>The World Health Organization made it easier to classify the flu outbreak as a pandemic by changing its definition to omit &#8220;enormous numbers of deaths and illness&#8221; just prior to making its declaration.</p>
	<p>The previous definition of a pandemic stated:</p>
	<p><em>An influenza pandemic occurs when a new influenza virus appears against which the human population has no immunity, resulting in several, simultaneous epidemics worldwide with enormous numbers of deaths and illness. With the increase in global transport and communications, as well as urbanization and overcrowded conditions, epidemics due the new influenza virus are likely to quickly take hold around the world.</em></p>
	<p>The WHO revised that definition, omitting the section indicating &#8220;enormous numbers of deaths and illness.&#8221; It now states:</p>
	<p><em>A disease epidemic occurs when there are more cases of that disease than normal. A pandemic is a worldwide epidemic of a disease. An influenza pandemic may occur when a new influenza virus appears against which the human population has no immunity. With the increase in global transport, as well as urbanization and overcrowded conditions in some areas, epidemics due to a new influenza virus are likely to take hold around the world, and become a pandemic faster than before. WHO has defined the phases of a pandemic to provide a global framework to aid countries in pandemic preparedness and response planning. Pandemics can be either mild or severe in the illness and death they cause, and the severity of a pandemic can change over the course of that pandemic.</em></p>
	<p>In a July 21 interview with Der Spiegel magazine, Epidemiologist Tom Jefferson, formerly a general practitioner in the British Army asked, &#8220;Don&#8217;t you think there&#8217;s something noteworthy about the fact that the WHO has changed its definition of pandemic?&#8221; , &#8220;The old definition was a new virus, which went around quickly, for which you didn&#8217;t have immunity, and which created a high morbidity and mortality rate. Now the last two have been dropped, and that&#8217;s how swine flu has been categorized as a pandemic.&#8221;</p>
	<p>He said he saw no difference in the definition between the swine flu and a normal flu epidemic. Jefferson told the magazine that there are hundreds of other viruses that can be deadly, but researchers aren&#8217;t as interested in those because the money isn&#8217;t as readily available.</p>
	<p>Teresa Forcades, a nun at the monastery of Sant Benet, in Montserrat-Barcelona, Spain, is a physician specializing in internal medicine who received her education at the State University of New York. She also earned a Ph.D. in public health from the University of Barcelona. Forcades addressed the WHO definition switch.</p>
	<p>She noted that the H1N1 virus has a high infection rate but lower mortality rate than the annual seasonal flu virus.</p>
	<p>The old definition was a new virus, which went around quickly which created a high morbidity and mortality rate.</p>
	<p>&#8220;How could WHO declare a pandemic, taking into account that this virus has a mortality rate lower than the yearly virus?&#8221; Teresa Forcades asked. &#8220;Then how come there isn&#8217;t a pandemic every year if the yearly virus is worse than this new virus? How come we don&#8217;t declare a pandemic every year?&#8221;</p>
	<p>During an average U.S. winter, normal seasonal flu strains result in an average of 200,000 hospitalizations and 36,000 deaths &#8211; about 10 times the current swine-flu death rate reported by the CDC.</p>
	<p>Drug makers and pharmaceuticals have too  much influence over public health authority decisions concerning pandemics and other public health issues.  Any and all lobbying by these for profit drug pusher enterprises of any government must be banned.  Declaring a fake or false pandemic amounts to fraud.  It is the most heinous of all frauds in that it puts the lives and the health of millions at risk.  All those involved in this massive 2009 Obama H1N1 virus pandemic (1976 Swine Flu) terrorism conspiracy must be held accountable for their unlawful acts of terrorism, vaccine poisoning and murder by lethal injection of a poison.  Each and every vaccine that has been made for their designer influenza virus is more harmful and deadlier than the actual virus.  The H1N1 vaccines contains banned adjuvants and banned live virus.  In legal terms a ban means the addition of adjuvants and the live virus is illegal - an indictable offense, a criminal offense.  The use of adjuvants was banned after the 1976 Ford Swine Flu vaccination program because of the very strong or delayed side effects. Side-effects from the vaccine containing adjuvants caused hundreds of cases of Guillain&#8211;Barré syndrome (a paralyzing neuromuscular disorder) and deaths whereas the 1976 Swine Flu only claimed 1 life - a US soldier (an Army private at the biological research lab at  Fort Dix).  </p>
	<p>Another adjuvant that has been added to the H1N1 vaccines is called squalene, which was also an additive in the vaccine suspected of causing illness among soldiers in the first Gulf War - now proven to be the cause of Gulf War Syndrome. Squalene is an oil that was also used to vaccinate soldiers at Fort Dix (without their informed consent) in 1951. There are also  trace amounts of formaldehyde or a compound called thimerosal (which contains mercury). Obama even campaigned to ban mercury when he was governor of Illinois, believing such compounds have led to allergies and even autism in children administered vaccines.</p>
	<p>Flu vaccines containing adjuvants have not been approved for use in the US until the 2009 Obama Swine Flu was released by the Obama administration to help them push through a new health insurance program that forces every American to pay for health care insurance or face jail time. Biological weapons expert, Marc S Griswold, took the 1976 Swine Flu virus from the US biological weapons research facility in Fort Detrick Maryland to Mexico during Obama&#8217;s hastened trip to Mexico on April 16, 2009, one day after millions of Americans petitioned Obama for change in a nation wide Tax Day Tea Party Revolt on April 15, 2009.   </p>
	<p><strong>SARS proves a fake pandemic</strong></p>
	<p>SARS was more lethal and contagious than this Obama released virus yet no pandemic was ever declared and no nation wide, World wide, vaccination program was ever launched to try and stop the spread.  The SARS outbreak was not considered a pandemic even though it lasted between the months of November 2002 and July 2003, with 8,096 known infected cases and 774 deaths (a case-fatality rate of 9.6%) worldwide being listed in the World Health Organization&#8217;s (WHO) 21 April 2004 concluding report.  Tens of thousands were quarantined World wide and on 23 April the WHO declared a travel advisory urging postponement of non-essential travel to include Toronto - a travel ban.  Why wasn&#8217;t SARS warranted a pandemic declaration or a World wide vaccination?   If the H1N1 virus was declared a pandemic by the WHO, which would mean that it was more contagious and dangerous than the SARS outbreak, why didn&#8217;t Obama and the WHO even bother to follow standard emergency medical protocol for containing a declared pandemic and order a quarantine?  Obama even went on international TV to warn the public that this influenza virus could kill millions &#8220;unless&#8221; the US public and the World population gets vaccinated.   The answer is profit.  The dope dealers at the major drug companies got $billions from the US government and other countries around the World immediately after the WHO declared a pandemic.  The WHO got $billions for new research grants and new construction.   TV, cable networks and newspapers got $millions in badly needed advertising funding to air the WHO and Obama H1N1 terrorism threats against the American and World population.  Obama got his health insurance reform bill that adds an additional eight percent onto every American&#8217;s payroll as a new tax to cover the costs of Obama&#8217;s new money laundering health care insurance scheme.       </p>
	<p>So how many have been killed by the Obama influenza outbreak so that the drug pushing industry, the WHO and Obama can profit?  World wide several thousand.  That means they sacrificed thousands of lives to obtain a profit.  They not only killed those thousands they murdered them because the majority contracted the Swine Flu virus not from casual contact with another infected person, they were injected with the virus through the vaccines.  Millions of healthy people (healthy meaning not sick) went to vaccination sites and were infected (became sick) after they received the vaccine.  Millions were infected by way of the vaccine that contained the live virus.  Thousands were murdered by lethal injection of the live virus that is in every vaccine.  People have been convicted of murder for infecting another with the AIDS virus.  So can the WHO, the drug pusher companies and the people in the Obama administration - including Obama as he is the one who ordered Marc S Griswold to release the Swine (H1N1) Flu virus that killed thousands World wide.

			<title>10,000 US soldiers pour into Haiti to protect the US interests in the 1.5 trillion barrels of Haitian oil/gas</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100118-203245</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/Haiti_oil.jpg" alt="Haiti_oil.jpg" title="Haiti_oil.jpg"  class="center" width="400" height="287" /><br />
<em>HYC - Hydrocarbons and HYT - Hydrothermal deposits throughout Haiti.  One of the poorest nations on Earth sitting on 1.5 trillion barrels of Black Gold.</em></p>
	<p>There is evidence that the United States found oil in Haiti decades ago and due to the geopolitical circumstances and big business interests of that era made the decision to keep Haitian oil in reserve for when Middle Eastern oil had dried up. This is detailed by Dr. Georges Michel in an article dated March 27, 2004 outlining the history of oil explorations and oil reserves in Haiti and in the research of Dr. Ginette and Daniel Mathurin.</p>
	<p>There is also evidence that these very same big US oil companies and their inter-related monopolies of engineering and defense contractors made plans, decades ago, to use Haiti&#8217;s deep water ports either for oil refineries or to develop oil tank farm sites or depots where crude oil could be stored and later transferred to small tankers to serve U.S. and Caribbean ports. This is detailed in a paper about the Dunn Plantation at Fort Liberte in Haiti.</p>
	<p>In Haiti, between 1994 to 2004 when the people had a voice in government, there was an intense grassroots movement to figure out how to exploit Haiti&#8217;s resources. There was a plan, where in the book &#8220;Investing In People: Lavalas White Book under the direction of Jean-Betrand Aristide (Investir Dans L&#8217;Humain), the Haitian majority &#8220;were not only told where the resources were, but that &#8212; they did not have the skills and technology to actually extract the gold, to extract the oil.&#8221; In 2004 the US kidnapped Jean-Betrand Aristide and is escorted on a US-charted jet to the Central African Republic.  Aristide, his wife Mildred and his brother-in-law are taken at gunpoint by US soldiers to the airport. Aristide is warned by US diplomat Luis Moreno that if he does not leave Haiti, thousands of Haitians would die and rebel leader Guy Philippe would attack the palace and kill him. Moreover, the US warns Aristide that they are withdrawing his US-provided security.  The US orchestrated a coup to prevent the Haitian people from knowing that they own huge reserves of oil.</p>
	<p>The US has only recently constructed its fifth largest embassy in the world - fifth only besides the US embassy in China, Iraq, Iran and Germany - in tiny Haiti.</p>
	<p>Within a C-SPAN coverage of the Energy Commission, aired June 10, 2008, four US Congressmen were televised talking to each other about how there is 1.5 trillion barrels of oil/gas off the shores of the US. Reportedly, they did not give the EXACT location of where this 1.5 trillion oil/gas reserves is.  So, could it be in Haiti? </p>
	<p>At the beginning of 20th century, the physical and political card of the Island of Haiti, drawn up in 1908 by Mr. Alexandre Poujol and Henry Thomasset, announced a significant oil reservoir in Haiti in the vicinity of source of Rio Todo El Mondo, Affluent of right-hand side of the river Artibonite, more known today under the name of Rivière of Thomonde.  According to the geological study there are many places in Haiti and the Dominican Republic which present all the criteria geologic of presence of THE BLACK GOLD in Haiti ~ la plaine des Cayes, la plaine de Léogane, la plaine du Cul-de-Sac, la plaine des Gonaïves et la Savane désolée, la Plaine du Nord. The Island of Gonâve and literal correspondents for the layers offshore oil rig. In this list, one should not forget the large sedimentary basin of Plateau Central. </p>
	<p>In the Fifties, the Knappen-Tippen-Abbet Company had carried out drillings in Gonâve, in plain of plaine de Cul-de-Sac, Plateau-Central and in the area of Gonaïves. All of these drillings had proved extremely promising and the results were beyond expectations. However, the big multinational oil companies operating in Haiti pushed for the discovered deposits not to be exploited.</p>
	<p>The Haitian OIL was to be kept a secret for when the Middle Eastern supplies are depleted. That is exactly what is happening. The wells of Knappen-Tippen-Abbet were numbered, carefully padlocked, or sealed with cement and forgotten.</p>
	<p>These oil deposits were not to be made public to the Haitians. The US and other superpowers do not want Haiti to become a powerful nation. The exploitation of these Oil Reservoirs would remove Haiti from the poorest Nation&#8217;s list in the Western hemisphere.  </p>
	<p>In their dramatic search for oil, the Cubans developed a technology and a know-how of which the Haitian people could, in exchange of their services, offer to the Cubans part of the national oil production and give them a share of profits.  The US is now pouring 10,000 US Marines into Haiti, not for humanitarian aid but to safeguard their interests in the 1.5 trillion barrels of oil/gas that belongs to the impoverished Haitian people.

			<title>Natural and safe cancer fighter</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100117-123647</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/breast_cancer.jpg" alt="breast_cancer.jpg" title="breast_cancer.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="362" /> </p>
	<p>The nutrient <em>Glucarate</em> (D-glucaric acid) is a powerful, natural and safe cancer fighter.  It detoxifies cancer causing agents from the environment, such as the carcinogens in barbecued meat.  In recent medical research studies, it dramatically reduced the incidence of breast, colon, prostate, lung and other cancers - in some cases by more than 50 percent.  </p>
	<p>Other common name(s): calcium glucarate, calcium D-glucarate, D-glucarate</p>
	<p>Glucarate is a phytochemical or plant compound found in many fruits and vegetables, including apples, grapefruit, broccoli, brussels sprouts, and bean sprouts. It also occurs naturally in the body in very small amounts. </p>
	<p>Glucarate reduces the risk of colon, lung, liver, skin, prostate, and other types of cancer by increasing the body&#8217;s ability to eliminate cancer-causing toxins that come from diet and the environment. Medical research has shown that glucarate may hinder the formation of breast and uterine tumors by helping the body remove excess estrogen and other hormones that promote these diseases. </p>
	<p>In dietary supplement form, glucarate is most commonly sold as Calcium D-glucarate.  Cancer research labs discovered in the 1980s, that glucarate supplements showed anti-cancer properties in cancer cells and laboratory animals. Once in the body, glucarate changes to a substance (d-glucaro-1,4-lactone) that is thought to inhibit a liver enzyme called beta-glucuronidase. This enzyme slows the elimination of certain hormones and chemicals from the body. By acting against beta-glucuronidase, glucarate may allow the body to get rid of these substances more quickly. Several studies have found higher levels of beta-glucuronidase in the tissues of people with cancer than in those without cancer.</p>
	<p>A number of animal studies published in peer-reviewed medical journals have found that fewer breast cancer tumors developed and existing tumors shrank in rats that were given dietary glucarate. Animal studies also found that dietary glucarate slowed the development of tumors in the colon, lung, liver, skin, and prostate. These results suggest that dietary glucarate is worthy of further study to evaluate its possible role in preventing and treating cancer in humans. </p>
	<p>Glucarate is sold as a dietary supplement.  There are no known side effects linked to its use.  Glucarate is a much safer cancer fighter than pre existing cancer treatment that uses drugs and radiation ~ most drug treatments have mild to very severe side effects.  </p>
	<p>Calcium D-Glucarate is known for:</p>
	<p>    * Estrogen Removal - Calcium-D-Glucarate allows the body to excrete used hormones, such as estrogen before they can become reabsorbed. Large doses of Calcium-D-Glucarate have been shown to lower serum estrogen levels in rats by 23 percent. Many breast cancers are estrogen-dependent. </p>
	<p>    * Tumor Prevention - Animal studies have shown positive results regarding the use of Calcium D-Glucarate for detoxifying carcinogens in the colon, skin, lung, breast, and liver.  </p>
	<p>    * Lipid Lowering - D-Glucarate reduced total serum cholesterol up to 12 percent, LDL-cholesterol up to 28 percent, and triglycerides up to 43 percent.</p>
	<p>There are over 200 different variations of the disease according to the National Cancer Institute? Having the ability to grow in any organ in the body, this wicked disease claimed the lives of seven million people worldwide. Deaths are expected rise to over 10 million per year by 2020. It ranks as the number 2 cause of death in the United States behind heart disease. Lung, colon, prostate and breast cancer account for more than half of cancer deaths in the United States. Over 14,000 chemicals are added to the food supply in the United States today. Due to exposure from various sources, tracing a chronic illness to one toxin can be a daunting task; subsequently the connections are often never made.</p>
	<p>Many have successfully conquered cancer naturally and safely.  All have had their cancer fighting success stories discredited by the 200 billion dollar cancer industry?  Why?  Billions have been thrown at the cancer industry in an attempt to find a cure; donations, fundraisers, the cancer walks and black tie events, yet we&#8217;re told absolutely no cure exists. Chemotherapy uses pharmaceutical drugs to destroy cancer cells throughout the entire body; in this process healthy cells are also killed, damaging the immune system, making the body weak and prone to further illness.  Side effects include: bleeding problems, havoc to the digestive tract, memory changes as well as sexual and fertility changes. Yet, due to the profitability, hospitals and doctors continue to recommend chemotherapy, regardless of its 2.1% success rate over five years!</p>
	<p>Mammograms which were suppose to protect women by early detection of breast cancer; in actuality they increase the risk due to harmful radiation exposure, claims Dr. Russell Blaylock-Brain Surgeon / Neuroscientist. The U.S. Preventive Task Force is now stating that women should not have yearly mammograms until the age of 50, and then only every two years. </p>
	<p>If better alternatives exist, then why do mainstream media and big pharmaceutical companies persist in using inferior treatments which do more harm than good?  The diagnoses, every time, is profit.  If an alternative to harmful chemotherapy and drugs existed then a cure for the $200 billion cancer industry would also be discovered.  Do you really think that the cancer research industry would ever come out and announce a cure for cancer and risk losing $billions in future research funding?   The fact is there is a cure for cancer, heart disease and other easily curable diseases.  Profit is keeping you from being cured.  How stupid does the cancer industry think we are?  Decades of research that has cost $billions and the supposed best scientific minds cannot find a cure.  Who are they kidding?  Not me and not millions more who are are now fighting cancer by rejecting the harmful chemotherapy and drugs that the $200 billion cancer industry is peddling.  Simple and cheap alternatives like supplementing our diet with Glucarate, exercising, creating Vitamin D naturally and free of charge with sun exposure and filtering out chlorine from our water supply are just a few of the many alternatives to prevent and treat cancer and other easily curable diseases.

			<title>Terrorism used to deliberately and systematically infect millions with the A-H1N1 virus through vaccines and nasal sprays</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100114-202330</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/H1N1-terror.jpg" alt="H1N1-terror.jpg" title="H1N1-terror.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="382" /><br />
<em>There is no difference between the actions taken by terrorists who attacked New York City on September 11, 2001 and the actions taken by the WHO, the CDC and the Obama government who have terrorized the American people and the World population into being infected with the A-H1N1 virus through vaccines and nasal sprays</em></p>
	<p>The World Health Organization and the CDC are all terrorizing the US public and the World population with predictions to the effect that millions will die unless people get the swine flu vaccine.  This is <a href="http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/18/usc_sec_18_00002331----000-.html">terrorism</a> - the systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion. Coercion is the practice of forcing another party to behave in an involuntary manner (whether through action or inaction) by use of threats, intimidation, trickery, or some other form of pressure or force. Such actions are used as leverage, to force the victim to act in the desired way. Coercion may involve the actual infliction of physical pain/injury or psychological harm in order to enhance the credibility of a threat. The threat of further harm may lead to the cooperation or obedience of the person being coerced. They, the World Health Organization, the CDC and the Obama government, are using terror to coerce the World population to submit to being vaccinated against a virus that has killed only a fraction of the number of people who have died each year from the seasonal flu.  For decades the seasonal flu killed thousands and no pandemic was ever issued.  <a href="http://www.cdc.gov/Flu/keyfacts.htm">Over 36,000 people have died each year from the seasonal flu in the US alone</a> and there has never been a pandemic alert issued.  The seasonal flu has killed tens of thousands of people before the first swine flu outbreak and will kill thousands more than the swine flu.</p>
	<p>Before the swine flu outbreak in April of 2009 the seasonal virus had killed thousands of people since January 2009 and is expected to keep killing hundreds of people every week for the rest of the year.  When the first case of the swine flu was reported, self-proclaimed experts warned the US government and other countries&#8217; governments that as a new strain, the swine flu will be harder to stop because there aren&#8217;t any vaccines to fight it.  This was not a warning but a threat - a terrorist threat.  From day one they set out to terrorize the general population.  This was premeditated.  Both the World Health Organization and the CDC receive most of their funding from the drug companies.  Drug companies have financed this terrorist attack against the American people and the World population.  They had the WHO and the CDC declare a pandemic that did not and still does not exist for a virus that is easily defeated by the body&#8217;s own immune system.  Their motive for this terrorist attack is profit.  They made $billions when the WHO and the CDC declared a pandemic and forced the US government to spend $billions on making a vaccine that is not needed and should not be used because they all contain the actual (live) swine flu virus.  Title 18 Section 175 of the US Criminal Code -<strong> Whoever knowingly develops, produces, stockpiles, transfers, acquires, retains, or possesses any biological agent, toxin, or delivery system for use as a weapon, or knowingly assists a foreign state or any organization to do so, or attempts, threatens, or conspires to do the same, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for life or any term of years, or both. </strong>The inclusion of any live virus in any disseminating device (vaccine syringe) is a violation of the law as it is considered a biological weapon and the use of such disseminating device is <a href="http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=browse_usc&#038;docid=Cite:+18USC175">bio-terrorism</a>.  </p>
	<p>The designer A-H1N1 virus still has a very long way to go to match the roughly 36,000 deaths that seasonal influenza causes in the United States each year.  The only way it will surpass the death toll of the seasonal influenza is if someone deliberately and systematically infects millions with the live virus through A-H1N1 vaccines and nasal sprays.  That is exactly what is now happening.  The WHO, the CDC and the US government are all guilty of launching a bio-terrorist attack against the World population.  They have launched a terrorist campaign that intends to terrorize the US people and the World population into being vaccinated for a virus that is extremely mild compared to the seasonal flu.  Mild because the regular seasonal flu kills a hundred times more people each week than the A-H1N1 virus has collectively over the past 9 months.  Mild because the swine flu is not as contagious as the regular flu virus.  The A-H1N1 virus can&#8217;t even be considered contagious.  The regular seasonal flu is spread easily whereas the A-H1N1 virus can only spread if injected directly into the blood stream through vaccines or nasal sprays.  The WHO and the CDC are doing exactly that - injecting a live virus directly into the blood stream of everyone who gets their vaccine.  If that person should die they will declare that they died of the swine flu and their terrorism has more fuel to trick more people into getting vaccinated.  How they contracted the swine flu in the first place is purposely (intent) left out of the press releases because the vast majority of the people who have died from the swine flu have died only after being infected with the swine flu through the vaccine.          </p>
	<p>Since January 2009, over 13,000 people have died of complications from seasonal flu, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention&#8217;s weekly report on the causes of death in the nation.  No fewer than 800 flu-related deaths were reported in any week between January 1 and April 18, 2009 - the date of the first case of the swine flu for the US - the day Special agent <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/marcgriswold">Marc S. Griswold</a> who was serving as the lead advance special agent for Obama on his April 16, 2009 trip to Mexico <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/04/30/AR2009043001836.html">flew back to the US from Mexico on a commercial airline sick with the Swine Flu virus.</a></p>
	<p>The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention&#8217;s weekly report looks at deaths in the 122 largest cities in the United States.  Worldwide, the annual death toll from the seasonal flu is estimated to be between 250,000 and 500,000.   About 9 out of 10 of those deaths are among people older than 65. Most times, they already have health problems that the flu makes worse.  &#8220;Regular influenza can be taxing,&#8221; Dr. Brian Currie stated. Currie is vice president and medical director at Montefiore Medical Center in Bronx, New York. &#8220;It causes their underlying disease to decompensate and then they don&#8217;t have the reserves to get through it.  &#8220;While it may not be the direct cause listed on the death certificate, it certainly contributed.&#8221;</p>
	<p> Seeking to put the swine flu outbreak in perspective, Los Angeles County public health officer Dr. Jonathan Fielding echoed other public officials calling it &#8220;cause for concern, but not for alarm.&#8221;</p>
	<p>&#8220;Given the size of L.A. County, given the traffic between here and Mexico, it would be very surprising if we didn&#8217;t have any cases,&#8221; Fielding said.  He said the county, where the CDC had confirmed 10 cases of swine flu, sees more than 1,000 flu-related deaths every year.  &#8220;So it would also not be surprising if there were deaths with swine flu &#8212; even if it had the pattern of seasonal flu,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Thus far, the pattern we see in the United States is very similar to that of seasonal flu &#8212; relatively mild to moderate cases.&#8221; </p>
	<p>According to the World Health Organization (WHO), a pandemic can start when three conditions have been met:</p>
	<p>* emergence of a disease new to a population;<br />
* agents infect humans, causing serious illness; and<br />
* agents spread easily and sustainably among humans.</p>
	<p>A disease or condition is not a pandemic merely because it is widespread or kills many people; it must also be infectious. For instance, cancer is responsible for many deaths but is not considered a pandemic because the disease is not infectious or contagious.  Seasonal flu is very infectious but has never been declared a pandemic.</p>
	<p>Now to show you that the WHO falsely declared the A-H1N1 or swine flu virus a pandemic - based on their own conditions.</p>
	<p>First of all the A-H1N1 virus is not a new disease. It is a rename of a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1976_swine_flu_outbreak">1976 influenza outbreak called the Swine Flu</a>. As before the WHO and US government jumped the gun by declaring a pandemic during Gerald Ford&#8217;s presidency whereby they planned for and started a vaccination of the entire US population against the 1976 swine flu. What happened is no surprise. The pandemic never came to be. Instead thousands were infected by the vaccine and became very sick and thousands suffered severe neurological damage as a result of the side-effects of the vaccine. Years later it was determined that the vaccine caused more deaths and more severe health issues than the actual 1976 Swine Flu. So the A-H1N1 does not meet even the first condition set by the WHO as they are already all too familiar with the Swine Flu influenza virus. The deception is there for profit as the WHO gets funding from the US government and from the drug companies. Without financial support from the drug industry the WHO cannot be profitable. As in 1976 the WHO declared a pandemic in order to get funding. Today they are declaring a pandemic for a larger profit. Why should the US auto makers be the only ones to get $billions from the US people through Obama&#8217;s bonus packages. Declare a pandemic when none exist and wait for $billions to come your way.</p>
	<p>The second condition is a play on words.<em> Agents infect humans, causing serious illness</em>. Agents are what&#8217;s put in a vaccine or the so-called antidote. Everyone who has contracted the A-H1N1 virus contradicted it by the administration of a drug treatment like Tamiflu or the vaccine illegally containing the live swine flu virus. The treatment in the form of anti-viral drugs like Tamiflu and vaccines are the agents that are causing serious illness. All reported cases have started out as being mild flu like symptoms. It is only after the people feel mildly sick that they seek medical help. It is after they all have received treatment in the form of an anti-viral drug or a vaccine that they become very ill and even die. The agent in all cases is the treatment.</p>
	<p>The last condition <em>agents spread easily and sustainably among humans</em> is totally untrue. The Swine Flu virus last 3 to 4 days, untreated. Based on WHO and CDC website reports when the 1976 Swine Flu virus re-emerged. For the first 3 months they stated that the Swine Flu virus is mild and lasts 3 to 4 days. Now they are changing their story because now they are seeking to make some money by pushing drugs for the drug companies. The drug companies and Obama promised them $billions if they declared a pandemic and started brainwashing the US public to accept a nationwide vaccination program.</p>
	<p>Ask the WHO what is in the vaccine.  Ask your doctor what is in the vaccine.  Ask them more specifically if a very small amount of the A-H1N1 organism is formulated into the vaccine. If they say it isn&#8217;t they are flat out lying to you. Every antidote or vaccine every made contains the actual organism that causes the disease. Look in any medical journal and you will see stated that a vaccine is 1) a biological preparation (made in a lab) 2) typically contains a small amount of a virus organism and or 3) is live micro-organisms that have been cultivated under lab conditions using related but less dangerous organisms to produce an immune response. Each and every description notes that the actual organism is used to make a vaccine. It does not matter how you play with the wording <strong>what you are always getting when you get vaccinated is infected with the actual virus</strong>. All it takes is one organism to cause an illness. The logic of washing you hands regularly in order not to be infected with any virus is to wash away even that one little micro-organism.</p>
	<p>A micro-organism is an organism that is microscopic. It is too small to be seen by the naked human eye. You can&#8217;t even see it. So if all it takes is one organism that is so small that you can&#8217;t even see it to make you very sick how many of these micro-organisms are used to make a vaccine? Does the vaccine contain 1, 10, 100, 1000, or even 1 million micro-organisms? How many is required by WHO standards to make a vaccine? If all it takes is 1 then 1 is one too many and here lies the proof that vaccines do more harm than good as they infect healthy people. </p>
	<p>I for one am not going to be infected by the vaccine. I for one will exercise my right to refuse any treatment that will harm me. The Hippocratic Oath is an oath traditionally taken by physicians swearing to ethically practice medicine. Included in this oath is this sentence:</p>
	<p><em>&#8220;I will apply dietic measures for the benefit of the sick according to my ability and judgement; I will keep them from harm and injustice.</p>
	<p>I will neither give a deadly drug to anybody if asked for it, nor will I make a suggestion to this effect.&#8221;<br />
</em><br />
Any doctor or nurse who participates in the A-H1N1 vaccination program is violating their oath. Knowing that the vaccine actual contains small amounts of the micro-organism means that they know the vaccine will cause the recipient harm. Based on well documented prior cases concerning specifically the brain damage and deaths caused as a result of the last swine flu vaccination program, from Ford&#8217;s presidency, the WHO, the CDC, Obama and every doctor in the US and around the World knows that the vaccine and anti-viral drug treatment for the H1N1 virus are all deadly drugs. Patient charts will show that only after being given the A-H1N1 vaccine or anti-viral drug like Tamiflu thousands in the US became severely ill and over 13,277 World wide have died. They contracted the A-H1N1 virus and became very ill and some even died after being given a vaccine and anti-viral drugs. The evidence clearly shows that there is no pandemic and there never was. There will be a genocide if the entire US population is continued to be terrorized and gets vaccinated with the actual A-H1N1 virus that is in every vaccine.

			<title>Sea water - the World's future fuel source</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100101-202514</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/surf.jpg" alt="surf.jpg" title="surf.jpg"  class="center" width="374" height="418" /> </p>
	<p>The cheapest, cleanest and most abundant source of fuel is all ready on tap. The technology is already here to break free of the oil dependency.</p>
	<p>Ever wonder what it would be like to not pay the high cost of fuel? Ever wonder if there is a better, cheaper, safer and environmentally friendly fuel source? The truth is we had it all along, for millions of years. The one thing that sustains all life - plants, animals and humans - is also the source of our past, present and future energy needs. The oldest, cheapest and cleanest fuel source is water. Water covers 71% the Earth&#8217;s surface, the oceans contain 97.2% of Earth&#8217;s water. The Antarctic ice sheet, which contains 90% of all fresh water on Earth. All ready knew that. What most of you don&#8217;t tend to remember is that water is composed of two gases - Oxygen and Hydrogen. Water is known as H2O with Hydrogen content being 2 parts to 1 part Oxygen. So what? Oxygen is what we all breath, including the engines in our vehicles. Hydrogen is the most abundant of the chemical elements, constituting roughly 75% of the universe&#8217;s elemental mass. To the point, hydrogen is a flammable gas making it a viable fuel source.</p>
	<p>You&#8217;ve heard of hydrogen fuel cells being tested in new vehicles. They have made vehicles that run on hydrogen fuel cells, or in other words on hydrogen. If they already have the technology to run our vehicles on hydrogen why haven&#8217;t we gotten away from the pollution and war causing oil? The answer is profit. Once the technology gets out and it is, the general population will have access to unlimited &#8220;free&#8221; fuel. Until they can monopolize all the water in the World they will develop new hydrogen technology at a crawl pace. Look at the oil companies today. They are the top of the Fortune 500. Record profits are being made.</p>
	<p>Every ship that sets to sea already has access to an unlimited supply of fuel. Every ocean vessel can sail without ever stopping to refuel. No more contaminating the water when ships dump their bilge water before entering ports. Their clean burning fuel is sea water. Sea water can be split into its Oxygen and Hydrogen gases and the hydrogen can be used to power the ship&#8217;s engines. The technology is there to drastically reduce our dependency on oil today. A <a href="http://h2o-fuels.com/index.html">Canadian owned company in Ontario Canada</a> is working on a &#8220;H2O - Water for Fuel Project&#8221; that uses <strong>sea water as the fuel source for electricity generators, gas stoves, barbecues, gas furnaces, gas fireplaces and gas lamps.</strong> The same device being developed can be modified to provide hydrogen gas from sea water to power the engines of every ship that sets sail carrying cargo, grain, and tourists. This device will drastically reduce the operating costs for every ocean vessel.</p>
	<p>With Global Warming being blamed for the rising sea water levels <strong>using sea water as fuel is another viable solution to prevent shorelines from disappearing</strong>. We can&#8217;t drink sea water so why not convert it to an energy source. By doing so we also would be reoxygenating the air we breathe. When we extract the Hydrogen (H2) from the water (H2O) we are left with Oxygen. Something we and every other living creature on Earth needs to live.

			<title>Vitamin D, the cure for the H1N1 virus and Cancer</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry100101-194723</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/sun-pill.jpg" alt="sun-pill.jpg" title="sun-pill.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="245" /><br />
<em>Vitamin D made naturally and free of charge from exposure to the Sun is the only pill you will ever need to prevent influenza, cancers and other diseases.</em></p>
	<p>Vitamin D is the &#8220;miracle nutrient&#8221; that activates your immune system to defend you against invading micro-organisms &#8212; including seasonal flu and swine flu. In August 2009, an important study was published by researchers at Oregon State University. This study reveals something startling: Vitamin D is so crucial to the functioning of your immune system that the ability of vitamin D to boost immune function and destroy invading micro-organisms has been conserved in the genome for over 60 million years of evolution.</p>
	<p>The fact that this vitamin-D mediated immune response has been retained through millions of years of evolutionary selection, and is still found in species ranging from squirrel monkeys to baboons and humans, suggests that it must be critical to their survival, researchers say.</p>
	<p>&#8220;The existence and importance of this part of our immune response makes it clear that humans and other primates need to maintain sufficient levels of vitamin D,&#8221; said Adrian Gombart, an associate professor of biochemistry and a principal investigator with the Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University.</p>
	<p>In primates, this action of &#8220;turning on&#8221; an optimal response to microbial attack only works properly in the presence of adequate vitamin D, which is actually a type of hormone that circulates in the blood and signals to cells through a receptor. Vitamin D is produced in large amounts as a result of sun exposure, and is available in much smaller amounts from dietary sources.</p>
	<p>Vitamin D prevents the &#8220;adaptive&#8221; immune response from over-reacting and reduces inflammation, and appears to suppress the immune response. However, the function of the new genetic element this research explored allows vitamin D to boost the innate immune response by turning on an antimicrobial protein. The overall effect may help to prevent the immune system from overreacting.</p>
	<p>What this study reveals is that without sufficient levels of vitamin D circulating in your blood, you&#8217;re a ripe, juicy target for influenza (H1N1 or otherwise). If you lack vitamin D, your immune system can&#8217;t &#8220;activate&#8221; to do its job. That&#8217;s why people who are deficient in vitamin D so frequently get winter colds.</p>
	<p>But people who are high in vitamin D have the nutritional power to activate their immune system so that it can respond to invading pathogens. Crucially, vitamin D also manages to balance immune response and prevent inflammation &#8212; the leading cause of death in the 1918 influenza pandemic.</p>
	<p>So not only does vitamin D protect you from the initial infection; it also prevents your body from over-reacting and killing you with inflammation (which typically gets expressed as bacterial pneumonia, an infection of the lungs).</p>
	<p>Smart people today are doing two things:</p>
	<p>1) Saying NO to vaccines.<br />
2) Saying YES to vitamin D.</p>
	<p>If you take vitamin D, you don&#8217;t need a vaccine!</p>
	<p>Sources for vitamin D - Where can you get vitamin D? There&#8217;s some vitamin D naturally present in fish oils and marine omega-3 oils, but the two most abundant sources are:</p>
	<p>1) Sunlight<br />
2) Vitamin D supplements</p>
	<p>You can get sunlight for free by exposing your skin to the sun. You can get vitamin D supplements at just about any vitamin retailer (local or online).  Vitamin D is easy to get. Your body actually manufactures it when you&#8217;re exposed to the sun.</p>
	<p>The sun provides the basis for all life on earth  The sun is the source of energy for all plants, animals and humans.  Can sunlight help prevent cancers and other diseases such as type 1 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and certain autoimmune and chronic diseases? The answer is yes. In recent years we&#8217;ve all been trained to fear the sun, due to the threat of skin cancer. Nothing could be further from the truth.  If the sun causes cancer, man wouldn&#8217;t be here today. Contrary to popular belief, sunbathing actually helps heal cancer of the skin while sunblock (which contains harmful chemicals and toxins) increases cancer risk .   Now there is a growing belief that exposure to the sun may not actually cause skin cancer. It is the chemicals that we put on our skin that is actually causing skin cancer. Chemicals that are in the sunblocks, colognes, perfumes, moisturisers and soaps. As a study published in the prestigious Cancer journal indicates, exposure to sun actually decreases cancer rates&#8221; The light and heat from the sun are indispensable to all nature. Humanity is also part of nature and needs sunlight for health and well being, for vitality and happiness. Sunlight was used for centuries to prevent and cure diseases. Sunlight can heal us and help us in the future. Sunlight helps the body heal wounds and injuries and overcome virtually any illness. Dr. Carl Hoffminster wrote that soldiers in World War II healed and survived much better when their open wounds and broken bones were exposed to sunlight.</p>
	<p>The research supporting vitamin D (made naturally and free of charge by your body from exposure to sunlight) and its ability to halt influenza is overwhelming. And yet the vaccine industry (and the doctors who push vaccines) don&#8217;t want you to know about vitamin D. Why is that?</p>
	<p>It&#8217;s because if people knew the truth about vitamin D, the vaccine industry would collapse. Who needs a vaccine if you&#8217;ve got a powered-up immune system to do the job automatically? Plus, your immune system is natural, while vaccines are completely unnatural injections of toxic chemicals that are increasingly being linked to not just autism, but seizures, brain damage and death.  Why risk a vaccine when vitamin D is so remarkably safe?</p>
	<p>You&#8217;ll need at least 4000 IU a day just to prevent deficiency, according to many nutrition experts. Some people take 8000 IU a day. You don&#8217;t even need to spend any money to the Vitamin D your body needs to maintain a healthy immune system  as all it takes is at least 30 minutes of sunlight every day.</p>
	<p>National &#8220;health&#8221; officials are making a crucial mistake with the swine flu. Instead of ordering more vaccines, they should be recommending vitamin D supplements to the population. For less than the cost of the vaccines, we could provide vitamin D supplementation to every man, woman and child in America. We would not only end the swine flu pandemic, we would also see cancer rates plummet!</p>
	<p>Perhaps that&#8217;s why our health authorities don&#8217;t dare recommend vitamin D &#8212; the financial impact on the cancer industry would just be too great. The vaccine makers would lose billions, and the cancer industry could lose tens of billions. Diabetes rates would fall, depression would fade away in many people, kidney function would improve and a long list of other diseases would be prevented or reversed following adequate vitamin D intake.</p>
	<p>Vitamin D is the answer to our national health care problems. Just one nutrient, if distributed freely to everyone, could probably slash our national health care costs by one-third within five years and yet they dare not mention it. &#8220;It&#8217;s not approved by the FDA,&#8221; they say. So the CDC won&#8217;t mention it. The WHO won&#8217;t recommend it. The FDA pretends it doesn&#8217;t exist, and the doctors aren&#8217;t allowed to prescribe it.</p>
	<p>Here it is &#8212; vitamin D &#8212; the great CURE for influenza. It&#8217;s here right now. It&#8217;s cheap, it&#8217;s safe, and it&#8217;s available. Yet it&#8217;s being utterly ignored.</p>
	<p>There is an agenda under way to keep the American people deficient in vitamin D and ignorant about its healing properties. This is a conscious, planned scheme that seeks to keep the people misinformed while pumping them full of vaccines, chemotherapy and prescription drugs instead of teaching them the simple nutritional cures that exist right now.</p>
	<p>With the swine flu or any future pandemic, the populations suffering the highest death rates will be those with the highest rates of vitamin D deficiency. And the vaccine? It offers no protection compared to the power of the vitamin D.</p>
	<p>The laws of biochemistry cannot be suspended by FDA bureaucrats</p>
	<p>To any doctor or health authority who scoffs at the notion of vitamin D being far more useful than vaccines, ask them this question: If vitamin D has no purpose in human health, then why have the immune system genes that are specifically activated by vitamin D persisted in the genome (which is now the human genome) for more than sixty million years?</p>
	<p>Why is the human immune system programmed to use vitamin D to activate itself?</p>
	<p>Why does human skin generate vitamin D in response to sun exposure?</p>
	<p>To doctors this is all just coincidence! There is no specific reason that vitamin D genes exist at all!</p>
	<p>But it gets even more bizarre: According to the FDA, vitamin D has no beneficial biological effects in the human body! It&#8217;s true: The FDA says that any substance that has a beneficial (therapeutic) effect in the human body must be a DRUG, not a nutrient. And vitamin D has never been approved as a drug. Therefore, it is inert.</p>
	<p>Do you follow that? Vitamin D has no benefit to the human body because the FDA says so. How&#8217;s that for bureaucratic arrogance? It&#8217;s like saying gravity doesn&#8217;t apply in our world because we haven&#8217;t yet &#8220;approved&#8221; the laws of physics. But one step off a high ledge reveals, indeed, that the laws of gravity are still in effect, and so are the laws of biochemistry.</p>
	<p>You need vitamin D, not a vaccine</p>
	<p>Your body doesn&#8217;t need a vaccine to combat the swine flu (or seasonal flu, for that matter). What it needs is vitamin D, restful sleep, adequate hydration with clean water, and good nutrition. These things make the vaccine obsolete.</p>
	<p>They&#8217;re safe, affordable, natural and readily available. You don&#8217;t have to wait in line to get vitamin D, and you don&#8217;t need a doctor&#8217;s prescription. There&#8217;s no needle involved, and there&#8217;s no risk of you suffering a seizure or permanent brain damage, either - all side effects of the swine flu vaccine.  </p>
	<p>With sufficient levels of vitamin D in your blood, your immune system will do its job to protect you from swine flu, bird flu, human flu or even the pandemic infectious nonsense being spread around by the CDC, FDA and WHO. Your immune system has all the technology it needs right now to keep you alive from almost any widely-circulating micro-organism&#8230; as long as it has the biochemical tools (like vitamin D) to &#8220;activate&#8221; its adaptive response.</p>
	<p>Without a functioning immune system, you would have been killed by micro-organisms a thousand times over by now? Your immune system saves your life every day, quietly, behind the scenes. It is the reason you&#8217;re breathing right now as you read this article. Receiving a vaccine injection is the ultimate insult to your own body because it admits that you have no faith in the very same immune system that has already saved your life countless times.</p>
	<p>Don&#8217;t put your faith in chemical injections. Believe in your immune system &#8212; and give it the nutritional tools it needs to keep on saving your life.</p>
	<p>Vitamin D also happens to be a powerful anti-cancer medicine that can both prevent and help reverse breast cancer.  Exciting new research conducted at the Creighton University School of Medicine in Nebraska has revealed that supplementing with vitamin D and calcium can reduce your risk of cancer by an astonishing 77 percent. This includes breast cancer, colon cancer, skin cancer and other forms of cancer. This research provides strong new evidence that vitamin D is the single most effective medicine against cancer, far outpacing the benefits of any cancer drug known to modern science.  The best way to get Vitamin D is by exposure to sunlight.  Sunlight triggers the formation of vitamin D in the skin, which can be activated in the liver and kidneys into a hormone with great activity. This activated form of vitamin D causes &#8220;cellular differentiation&#8221; - essentially the opposite of cancer. </p>
	<p>This research on vitamin D is such good news that the American Cancer Society, of course, had to say something against it. An ACS spokesperson, Marji McCullough, strategic director of nutritional epidemiology for the American Cancer Society, flatly stated that nobody should take supplements to prevent cancer.  Why would the American Cancer Society &#8212; which claims to be against cancer &#8212; actually  dissuade people from taking supplements that slash their cancer risk by 77 percent?  The answer - the ACS is an organization that actually prevents prevention and openly supports the continuation of cancer as a way to boost its power and profits. The ACS is the wealthiest non-profit in America and has very close ties to pharmaceutical companies, mammography equipment companies and other corporations that profit from cancer.   The cancer industry is a multi-billion dollar industry.  Just about everything the public is told about fighting cancer or finding a cure for cancer by these cancer institutions is a lie. Those &#8220;race for the cure&#8221; cancer walks are a complete scam.  They really aren&#8217;t searching for any way to prevent cancer or cure cancer, they&#8217;re only searching for new patented drugs to profit from cancer.</p>

			<title>The CIA&#8217;s main mission is terrorism. To engage in terrorist acts in support of the US President&#8217;s foreign policy</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry091231-182355</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/us-terrorsim.jpg" alt="us-terrorsim.jpg" title="us-terrorsim.jpg"  class="center" width="285" height="440" /><br />
<em>US TERRORIST ATTACK BEGINS &#8212; The USS Donald Cook launches three Tomahawk Land Attack Missiles towards Iraq, March 20, 2003.  That day will forever be known as Iraq&#8217;s 9/11 where the US launched an unprovoked surprise terrorist attack against the sovereign state of Iraq and the innocent people of Iraq.  On that day the US did not attack the Iraqi military it cowardly attacked and murdered Iraqi civilians while they slept</em></p>
	<p>The CIA is the covert action arm of the President&#8217;s foreign policy advisers. In that capacity it overthrows or supports foreign governments while reporting &#8220;intelligence&#8221; justifying those activities. It shapes its intelligence, even in such critical areas as foreign countries&#8217; nuclear weapons capability, to support presidential policy. Disinformation is a large part of its covert action responsibility, and the American people are the primary target of its lies.</p>
	<p>The CIA is a rogue organization, out of control. The CIA&#8217;s main mission and purpose is to implement the policies of the President of the United States. The CIA carries out unofficial U.S. government policy. That the CIA is a terrorist organization implies that the United States is a terrorist state. Considering the millions of deaths that the U.S. has caused and the enormous suffering that its international policies produce, its hypocrisy in condemning other countries as &#8220;terrorist states&#8221; would be ludicrous if it were not so tragic.</p>
	<p>The CIA has been a terrorist organization from its beginnings, when it included a large number of former Nazis &#8212; former members of the Gestapo and the Nazi military intelligence (such as Reinhard Gehlen). Unlike smaller terrorist organizations such as ETA the CIA does not normally engage in terrorism by sending its own employees to plant bombs, etc.  Rather, it tends to act through intermediaries and recruited foreign nationals including mercenaries, agents and operatives.  The CIA sometimes makes use of U.S. military personnel - used widely in the Vietnam war and extensively in the US Wars of Terror.</p>
	<p>Evidence that the CIA is a terrorist organization is clear from its record of terrorist activities (deceptively called &#8220;counterinsurgency&#8221; or &#8220;low intensity conflict&#8221;).  Here are just a few easily verified examples:</p>
	<p>    * During the Vietnam war the CIA conducted Operation Phoenix, an assassination program. The goal was not only to eliminate those Vietnamese who might oppose the U.S. (which in practice meant most of the population of Vietnam) but also to terrorize the entire population of South Vietnam and to suppress opposition to the occupying U.S. forces. Over 20,000 Vietnamese were murdered, often at random.<br />
    * The CIA also recruited a mercenary army in Vietnam (financed by profits from the CIA&#8217;s heroin smuggling), particularly from among the Hmong villagers, which was used to terrorize the civilian population and to prevent them from assisting the Viet Cong.<br />
    * The CIA organized and financed (with the profits from its cocaine smuggling) the activities of the Contras in Nicaragua, who murdered tens of thousands of civilians, and tried to disrupt the economy, in an attempt to destabilize the legitimate Sandinista government. (For this the U.S. was condemned in the World Court for engaging in international terrorism, and it rejected a U.N. security council resolution calling upon it to observe international law.)<br />
    * The CIA planned and organized the military coup d&#8217;etat in 1973 in Chile which overthrew the legitimately elected government of Salvador Allende (because he would not implement economic policies designed in Washington to favor American corporations doing business in Chile) and brought to power the regime of General Augusto Pinochet; this regime abducted, tortured and killed thousands of Chilean citizens in an attempt to suppress opposition.<br />
    * The CIA organized and supported the Turkish government&#8217;s persecution of its Kurdish minority during the 1990s, resulting in tens of thousands of deaths and millions of refuges; the aim being the suppression of Kurdish culture and the elimination of Kurdish demands for a separate state.<br />
    * The September 11th attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon are widely regarded as terrorist acts. There is evidence of CIA involvement.</p>
	<p>The concept of &#8220;terrorism&#8221; is not clear and there is no generally agreed upon definition of the term.  It is, however, a tactic, a means to a particular end.  A tactic can always be used, and is always a possible course of action for some group or other. Once this is understood it is clear that it is ridiculous to declare a &#8220;War on Terrorism&#8221; &#8212; one cannot defeat a tactic. To declare a war on terrorism is to declare perpetual war (which, in fact, is the intention).  When the US declared al-Qaeda a terrorist group they declared themselves to be terrorists.  Al-Qaeda is a cover for CIA terrorist activities and attacks against both foreign and domestic civilian populations.  9/11 has already been declared the work of Al-Qaeda.  If the accused is widely accepted as being the group that planned for and carried out the attacks of 9/11 then it is equally accepted that the US government attacked its own people on 9/11.  There is clear and concrete evidence that the US government ordered the CIA to plan for a terrorist attack against the US and its people.  It was already decided on that the US would blame a newly formed CIA terrorist cell named al-Qaeda for the attacks and use this clear act of treason as an excuse to attack any state they fraudulently declared as supporters of their home grown terrorist cell al-Qaeda.  al-Qaeda naming is the US tool for initiating any new or forthcoming policies of the US president.  al-Qaeda is a phantom terrorist group.  The CIA is given $billions to commit terrorist attacks against any nation, including the US.  al-Qaeda threats are the US president&#8217;s threats.  al-Qaeda terrorist attacks are the US president&#8217;s attacks.  </p>
	<p>In September 2001 President George W. Bush declared a &#8220;War on Terrorism&#8221; and vowed to destroy all terrorist organizations &#8220;with a global reach&#8221;. For the good of both America and the rest of the world the US should start with the largest international terrorist organization of them all &#8212; their own CIA.  To end the US wars of aggressions, every nation on Earth has to only target the CIA.  First ban entry of any &#8220;suspected&#8221; CIA agent from entering ones country, as their mission is always the same - terrorism, namely to recruit and train the people of the country they enter to commit terrorist acts against the US targeted country.  The CIA is not and never was a peace keeping organization.  Their mandate is to infiltrate and destroy from within the country they illegally enter.  They are murders, assassins, saboteurs, kidnappers, thieves and spies.  They carry out the illegal orders of the United States president.      </p>
	<p><strong>Extraordinary Rendition, Torture and Disappearances in the &#8220;War on Terror&#8221;</strong></p>
	<p>Human rights groups and several public inquiries in Europe have found the U.S. government, with the complicity of numerous governments worldwide, to be engaged in the illegal practice of extraordinary rendition, secret detention, and torture.</p>
	<p>The U.S. government-sponsored program of renditions is an unlawful practice in which numerous persons have been illegally detained and secretly flown to third countries, where they have suffered additional human rights abuses including torture and enforced disappearance. No one knows the exact number of persons affected, due to the secrecy under which the operations are carried out. </p>
	<p>The existence and locations of the facilities &#8212; referred to as &#8220;black sites&#8221; in classified White House, CIA, Justice Department and congressional documents &#8212; are known to only a handful of officials in the United States and, usually, only to the president and a few top intelligence officers in each host country. </p>
	<p>&#8220;Ninety-five percent of the work of intelligence agencies around the world is disinformation and deception,&#8221; Andreas von Bulow, former parliamentary official responsible for the budget for Germany&#8217;s intelligence agencies, told American Free Press in December 2001.</p>
	<p>&#8220;If what I say is right, the whole US government should end up behind bars&#8221; and &#8220;They have hidden behind a veil of secrecy and destroyed the evidence - that they invented the story of 19 Muslims working within Osama bin Laden&#8217;s al-Qa&#8217;eda - in order to hide the truth of their own covert operation&#8221; </p>
	<p>Like Nazi Germany of 1933, American news stands today carry a mainstream news dedicated to pushing the government&#8217;s version of the truth for 9/11 while viciously smearing independent researchers as extremists who peddle fantasies and make poisonous claims.</p>
	<p>The inactions of US government on 9/11, the investigation that never followed, the USA PATRIOT Act, and the propaganda being disseminated by the mainstream news, are strikingly similar to actions attributed to the Nazi ministers Joseph Goebbels and Hermann Gvring.</p>

			<title>How to render a $million tank useless.</title>

			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/paint_attack.jpg" alt="paint_attack.jpg" title="paint_attack.jpg"  class="center" width="400" height="290" /> </p>
	<p>What can civilians of any nation do to defend themselves from armed attacks and acts of aggression? Even though the US and Israel may have the most technologically advanced military weaponry on Earth their technology is their weakness. A bomber or fighter jet can be grounded or forced to crash. Civilians being attacked can stop a tank, Humvee or attack vehicle in its tracks and force the soldiers to dismount and leave the protection of their armored vehicles. The modern military machines rely heavily on sensors to both defend themselves and attack innocent people. There are no longer any openings in tanks that would make the tank crewman venerable to attacks. There are sensors and video feeds that keep track and track targets. So to stop them in their tracks all an individual would have to do is blind those sensors. Bank robbers today usually blind the video cameras in a bank when they attempt to rob it. They spray the camera lens with paint or cover it. The same application can be applied to any moving combat vehicle. Paint balls or paint bombs that target the sensors and video will force the tank to stop and the tank will no longer be able to select any new target. Painting or oil spraying the sensors and videos renders a $million tank useless. The same applies for aircraft. Anti aircraft shells with paint or oil canisters can really mess up a canopy of a $billion aircraft. There is no way any pilot can clean the canopy after its just flown through paint or oil bursts. The pilot will be forced to eject.</p>
	<p>So to defend yourself, start stocking up on oil based paints. Your life may depend on it. Your freedom will depend on it. Oil based is better as it can also start a fire in the engines or jets of any military aircraft or transport vehicle. Your government is taking away you weapons that you will need to defend yourself. You can still defend yourself using every day household items like kitchen knives, glass, baseball bats, barbecue propane tanks, gas cans, liquor, aerosol air fresheners and paint.

			<title>US terrorist threat against Afghanistan August 2001 - Either you accept our offer of a carpet of gold, or we bury you under a carpet of bombs</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry091228-120214</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/oil-and-gas.jpg" alt="oil-and-gas.jpg" title="oil-and-gas.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="314" /> </p>
	<p>In Afghanistan, the hidden US agenda has always been oil and natural gas. &#8220; French authors Jean-Charles Brisard and Guillaume Dasquie published a book entitled Bin Laden: The Forbidden Truth which tells of the negotiations for oil pipeline rights in Afghanistan that collapsed in August 2001 after the U.S. told the Taliban: Accept our offer of a carpet of gold or you&#8217;ll get a carpet of bombs.&#8221;</p>
	<p>The Bush administration was expecting the Taliban to cooperate with the US plans for exploiting the oil resources of Central Asia. The US was sure until August 2001, that the Taliban, as a source of stability in Central Asia, would enable US oil companies and their US subsidiaries to construct an oil pipeline across Central Asia. Then all of a sudden in August 2001, a trusted partner of USA, quickly became terrorists when the Taliban realized that their national interest was going to be robed by the US and they dared to refuse to accept US conditions for their support in exploitation of oil resources from central Asia.</p>
	<p>As a last hope in the talks between the Bush administration and the Taliban, which began in February 2001, shortly after Bush&#8217;s inauguration a Taliban emissary arrived in Washington in March with presents for the new chief executive, (an expensive Afghan carpet). But the talks themselves were less than cordial. Brisard said; &#8220;At one moment during the negotiations, the US representatives told the Taliban, &#8216;either you accept our offer of a carpet of gold, or we bury you under a carpet of bombs&#8217;.&#8221;</p>
	<p>The Bush administration outright threatened to bomb the Taliban unless they came around and allowed the US to build the trans-Afghan Pipeline.  These threats were made against the Taliban and the Afghan people months before the US airline hijackings that took place on September 11, 2001.  </p>
	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/trans-Afghan-pipeline-plan.jpg" alt="trans-Afghan-pipeline-plan.jpg" title="trans-Afghan-pipeline-plan.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="223" /> </p>
	<p>The trans-Afghan pipeline has always been the hidden agenda for the US.  It is the sole motive for the US attacking and occupying Afghanistan.  The US has declared that the mission in Afghanistan could last for decades and the reasoning behind this assertion is to protect US oil interests, the trans-Afghan pipeline.   The US attacked Afghanistan, not to apprehend bin Laden, but to overthrow the Taliban government and install a government of their choosing.  A pro-US government which would assist the US efforts to secure a multibillion dollar natural gas pipeline and an oil pipeline project involving the US firm Unocal (On August 10, 2005, Unocal merged with Chevron Corporation and became a wholly owned subsidiary) and the Saudi group Delta Oil (never forget that the majority of September 11, 2001 US commercial airline hijackers were Saudis, as is bin Laden). The two companies reached an argument with the former Soviet republic Turkmenistan for the pipeline which would go through Afghanistan into Pakistan long before the US airline hijackings of September 11, 2001. The hijackings were a false-flag plan Code named <a href="http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&#038;source=web&#038;ct=res&#038;cd=2&#038;ved=0CA4QFjAB&#038;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gwu.edu%2F~nsarchiv%2Fnews%2F20010430%2Fnorthwoods.pdf&#038;rct=j&#038;q=Operation+Northwoods+pdf&#038;ei=WMU4S4H3LYKOlQegprySBw&#038;usg=AFQjCNEj72UfGUMncMdt-VFY-aGp124NmA">Operation Northwoods</a> that called for CIA or other operatives to commit apparent acts of terrorism in U.S. cities to create public support for a war.  It included plans for hijackings and bombings followed by the use of phony evidence that would blame the terrorist acts on a foreign government.  The US government implemented their plans to control the flow of the oil and natural gas of the Caspian Region soon after the CIA and their foreign national operatives executed Operation Northwoods. </p>
	<p>With the US government staged hijackings of 9/11 an ulterior motive (an invented political excuse) was presented to invade Afghanistan - to get Osama bin Laden, the great elusive boogeyman. And because Saddam Hussein, the leader of a country which just so happens to have one of the largest oil reserves in the World, was allegedly in league with bin Laden, the US launched its war against Iraq on March 20, 2003. </p>
	<p>Both US attacks against Afghanistan and Iraq were unprovoked and premeditated.  Both attacks were planned for and prepared for long before the hijackings of US commercial airlines on September 11, 2001.  The hijackings were criminal acts and so are the US attacks and occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq.  The hijackings were acts of terrorism and so are the US attacks against Afghanistan and Iraq.  Terrorism is the use of violence and threats to intimidate or coerce, esp. for political purposes.  The US government threatened both Afghanistan and Iraq with violence.  The US government used terrorists tactics to intimidate and coerce the Taliban into handing over control of the trans-Afghan pipeline to the US oil company Unicol.  &#8220;Either you accept our offer of a carpet of gold, or we bury you under a carpet of bombs&#8221; is clearly a threat, an act of terrorism, by the US government.  In a <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20030322005337/http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2003/03/20030317-7.html#">televised address to the nation on March 17, 2003, shortly before the US officially begins its illegal invasion of Iraq, President George W. Bush gave Saddam Hussein an ultimatum, warning the Iraqi leader that if he and his sons do not leave Iraq within 48 hours, the US will use military force to topple his government.</a>  &#8220;<em>&#8230; all Iraqi military and civilian personnel should listen carefully to this warning. In any conflict, your fate will depend on your action. Do not destroy oil wells, a source of wealth that belongs to the Iraqi people. Do not obey any command to use weapons of mass destruction against anyone, including the Iraqi people. War crimes will be prosecuted. War criminals will be punished. And it will be no defense to say, &#8220;I was just following orders.</em>&#8221; ~ George W Bush </p>
	<p>The televised address to the nation on March 17, 2003 is clearly a threat, an act of state terrorism by the US government against the sovereign state of Iraq, its leader and its people. Terrorism was used by the United States to delegitimize political or foreign opponents, and legitimize the United State&#8217;s own use of terror against them.  </p>
	<p>Who are the real terrorists?  The Taliban who are defending their country and countrymen from an armed attack by the US and NATO countries or the US government?  The evidence is clear.  The verdict is clear.  The US government, for they attacked 2 countries that did not attack the US or any other country.  The US government, for they launched an armed attack, in violation of US and International Law and Treaties, against Afghanistan and Iraq for the sole purpose of seizing control of both country&#8217;s oil and natural gas assets.  The US &#8220;War on Terror&#8221; is clearly a US &#8220;War of Terror&#8221;.  </p>
	<p>John F Kennedy warned us on June 10, 1963 of a Pax Americana enforced on the world by American weapons of war. &#8220;<em>What kind of peace do we seek? Not a Pax Americana enforced on the world by American weapons of war. Not the peace of the grave or the security of the slave. I am talking about genuine peace, the kind of peace that makes life on earth worth living, the kind that enables men and nations to grow and to hope and to build a better life for their children - not merely peace for Americans but peace for all men and women - not merely peace in our time but peace for all time</em>.&#8221; &#8211; John F. Kennedy.</p>
	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/NorthwoodsMemorandum.jpg" alt="NorthwoodsMemorandum.jpg" title="NorthwoodsMemorandum.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="433" /> </p>
	<p>Kennedy was warning Americans of the secretive plan called &#8220;Operation Northwoods&#8221;.  Operation Northwoods was drafted by the Joint Chiefs of Staff (Almirant George W. Anderson Jr. (Chief of Navy Operations), General George H. Decker (Chief of the Land Forces section), General Leyyman L. Leymnintzer (Chief of the Joint Chief of Staff), General Curtis E. LeMay (Chief of the Air Force section), General David M. Shoup (Commander of the Marines) ) and signed by then-Chairman Lyman Lemnitzer, and sent to the Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara on March 13, 1962 </p>
	<p>The plan called for CIA  controlled terrorist operations against the United States.   A CIA &#8220;Group W&#8221; (an ad hoc unit directed by William Harvey) plan that specifically called for:</p>
	<p><em>&#8220;a group of conspiratorial passengers who could be students, for example, would be on board of this ghost-company&#8217;s charter flight under the control of the CIA. Once they were flying over Florida (revised by the Bush administration to include New York City and Washington DC), an empty and without-a-pilot identical plane would follow the route. The conspiratorial passengers (passengers from American Airlines Flight 11 from Boston to Los Angeles, United Airlines Flight 175 from Boston to Los Angeles, American Airlines Flight 77 from Dulles to Los Angeles and United Airlines Flight 93 from Newark to San Francisco) would then be taken to a CIA secret base. The plane would ask for help by saying it had been attacked (revised again by the Bush administration to being hijacked). Then, the plane would blow up.&#8221;</em></p>
	<p>The implementation of Operation Northwoods would cost the lives of many American citizens, civilians and military men, which was actually the key element for their manipulative functions.  The attacks of 9/11 cost the lives of many American citizens, civilians and military men and women.  </p>
	<p>When Chairman Lyman Lemnitzer presented the CIA Group W Operation Northwoods plans to John F. Kennedy, Kennedy opposed the plan and refused to involve the US in any such overt war.  John F. Kennedy regarded Lemnitzer as a hysterical and extremist anti-communist backed up by unscrupulous multinational companies. It was then that President Kennedy understood the real meaning of his antecessor, President Eisenhower, warning when the year before, in his farewell address he said:</p>
	<p>&#8220;The responsible of the government must be aware of an illegitimate influence whether it comes or not from the military-industrial complex. The risk of developing or using a usurped power exists and will remain present. We must not allow this threat to prevent us from our liberties and democratic processes. Nothing must be considered completely achieved. Only the proper surveillance and awareness can guarantee the balance between the lobby of the huge industrial and military machinery we have developed and our pacific methods and objectives so that security and freedom can work together&#8221;.  John F Kennedy was murdered on November 22, 1963.  The false flag attack scenario against the US by the US government, code named Operation Northwoods, actually played out on September 11, 2001.  </p>

			<title>If I take away our freedom then they can&#8217;t hate us for it ~ George W bush</title>

			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/wethpeople.jpg" alt="wethpeople.jpg" title="wethpeople.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="394" /><br />
Abraham Lincoln - &#8220;<strong>America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves</strong>.&#8221; </p>
	<p><strong>Bill of Rights</strong> Amendment XIV<br />
Section 1.  &#8230; &#8220;<em><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">No state</span> shall <span style="text-decoration: underline">make or enforce any law</span> which shall</strong> abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state <strong>deprive <span style="text-decoration: underline">any person</span> of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to <span style="text-decoration: underline">any person</span> within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.</strong></em>&#8221;</p>
	<p>When the World Trade Towers collapsed, most Americans simply refused to believe suggestions that the attacks had been staged by parties working for the US Government itself. Americans were afraid to, even as news reports surfaced proving that the US Government had announced plans for the invasion of Afghanistan early in the year, plans into which the attacks on the World Trade Towers which angered the American people into support of the already-planned war fit entirely too conveniently.</p>
	<p>But so trapped are Americans by their belief in their own bravery that they will themselves to be blind to the evidence before their eyes, so that they can nod in agreement with the government while still imagining themselves to have courage, even as they avoid the one situation which most requires real courage; to stand up to the government&#8217;s lies and deceptions. </p>
	<p>Immediately after the September 11, 2001 attacks the US Government requested temporary extraordinary powers, powers specifically banned under Constitutional law, but powers the government is claiming they need to have to deal with the &#8220;terrorists&#8221;.</p>
	<p>The response of the United States Government to a frightened and enraged U.S. citizenry over the September 11 attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center has been eerily reminiscent of Hitler&#8217;s strategy following the burning of the Reichstag. As well, the rapidity and recklessness with which the Bush administration and the U.S. Congress have abrogated the Bill of Rights places the U.S. Government squarely in the same camp with the &#8220;enemies of freedom&#8221; they purport to oppose. </p>
	<p><strong>The Anti-Terrorism Act of 2001</strong></p>
	<p>The U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary Committee steam rolled through the US Congress a bill which would dramatically increase the power of U.S. law enforcement agencies.  Attorney General John Ashcroft insisted that the FBI needed additional surveillance and enforcement powers immediately and the Department of Justice demanded the bill be enacted by September 28.  The House Judiciary committee was scheduled to vote on the Bush administration&#8217;s bill on the morning of  September 25; however, in response to an outcry the vote was rescheduled to take place only two days after the catastrophic attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. The Senate voted for anti-terrorist legislation which increased Internet surveillance after senators were given just 30 minutes to read the measure.  </p>
	<p>The Anti-Terrorism Act of 2001 eliminated the legal requirement for government agents to obtain permission from a judge before being allowed to search homes and download computer files. Under the law, the information gathered could be used in court, a legal change which presently violates constitutional protections against search and seizure. The bill would also eliminate the requirement for a judge to sign a warrant in order for government agents to obtain billing records from hotels, phone companies, and other businesses, replacing judicial review with an administrative subpoena. Essentially, agencies would be able  to sign their own search warrants and conduct searches in routine secrecy, without having to notify the subject of the search.</p>
	<p>Additionally, this law gives broad surveillance powers to the federal government, and authorizes the issuance of wiretaps by a secret seven-judge court in Washington, D.C. The DOJ bill imposes a host of Wiretap Act expansions which are not limited to terrorism investigations, and which vastly increase the power of  the federal government to conduct surveillance of the reading habits and correspondence of the American people. The DOJ bill expanded the power of the  police to record the phone numbers of incoming and outgoing phone calls on a phone line to include surveillance of Internet surfing and e-mail.</p>
	<p>Coverage on Monday, September 24, of the Anti-Terrorism Act was limited to Attorney General John Ashcroft&#8217;s testimony urging hasty passage of the sweeping new police powers sought by the Bush administration.  Although Ashcroft&#8217;s testimony was open to television cameras, the committee&#8217;s Republican staff ordered camera crews to leave when civil liberties and free-speech advocates were called to testify. This happened in violation of House rules which state, &#8220;Whenever a hearing or meeting  conducted by a committee or subcommittee is open to the public, those proceedings shall be open to coverage by audio and visual means.&#8221;</p>
	<p>&#8220;The Patriot Act: The Most Abominable, Unconstitutional, Hateful Law from the Point of Freedom since the Alien &#038; Sedtion Act of 1798!&#8221;  - unconstitutionality of the act is that it violated the Tenth Amendment: &#8220;The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.&#8221;</p>
	<p><strong>The Office of Homeland Security</strong></p>
	<p>On the evening of <a href="http://archives.cnn.com/2001/US/09/20/gen.bush.transcript/">September 20, 2001</a>  President Bush allied himself with the worst enemies of freedom. He made a seemingly innocuous &#8212; even a  comforting-sounding &#8212; announcement. He said he had created the cabinet-level <em>Office of Homeland Security</em>, with Pennsylvania governor Tom Ridge as its head. </p>
	<p>Most people were utterly unaware of the significance of Bush&#8217;s new bureaucracy. But for anyone watching the advance of police-state policies in America, absolutely nothing could have been more ominous.  The Homeland Defense Agency is not a new idea. Conceived by a bi-partisan commission headed by former senators Gary Hart and Warren Rudman,  this Clinton-era conception,  &#8216;The Phase III Report Of The U.S. Commission On National Security/21st Century,&#8217; is nothing less than the framework for a permanent military-bureaucratic American police state.</p>
	<p>The new Homeland Defense Agency is the lynchpin of a plan that extensively reorganizes both the executive and legislative functions of the U.S. government. Among other things, the plan makes the National Guard a national police force. It extensively federalizes both the study and the work of science, mathematics, and engineering. It creates numerous new sub-bureaucracies. The Homeland Security agency itself is to &#8216;be built upon the Federal &#8220;Emergency Management Agency, with the three organizations currently on the front line of border security - the Coast Guard, the Customs Service, and the Border Patrol - transferred to it.&#8217; The plan calls for the new agency to oversee activities of the Department of Defense, as well as to assume a variety of duties now held by agencies from the Department of Commerce to the FBI.&#8221;</p>
	<p><strong>Bush: <em>&#8220;If I take away our freedom then they can&#8217;t hate us for it&#8221;</em></strong></p>
	<p>The US people has yet to realize that their own government is intentionally destroying their own country. bin Laden didn`t take away your freedom the Bush administration did. bin Laden didn&#8217;t attack the US on September 11, 2001 the Bush administration did. bin Laden isn`t kidnapping, torturing and detaining without charge thousands of foreigners and US citizens, the Bush administration did and Obama has ordered these illegal actions to continue. bin Laden and phantom terrorists aren`t bankruptcy the US, the Bush administration did and Obama is putting the nail in the coffin.</p>
	<p><strong>The US government hates your freedoms - your freedom of religion, your freedom of speech, your freedom to vote and assemble and disagree with their illegal policies and agendas.</strong></p>
	<p>The events of September 11, 2001 should have strengthened the resolve of the US government to work harder to safeguard the rights and freedoms of the US people. After all it is the stated policy of the US government to &#8220;not negotiate with terrorists&#8221;. After all George W Bush accused bin Laden and terrorists of trying to take away your freedom. Bush stated &#8220;On September the 11th, enemies of freedom committed an act of war against our country. &#8230; They hate our freedoms &#8212; our freedom of religion, our freedom of speech, our freedom to vote and assemble and disagree with each other.&#8221; </p>
	<p><strong>bin Laden didn&#8217;t draw up the Patriot Act - the US government did.</strong></p>
	<p>&#8220;<em>Just six weeks after the September 11 attacks, a panicked Congress passed the &#8220;USA PATRIOT Act,&#8221; an overnight revision of the nation&#8217;s surveillance laws that vastly expanded the government&#8217;s authority to spy on its own citizens and reduced checks and balances on those powers, such as judicial oversight. The government never demonstrated that restraints on surveillance had contributed to the attack, and indeed much of the new legislation had nothing to do with fighting terrorism. Rather, the bill represented a successful use of the terrorist attacks by the FBI to roll back unwanted checks on its power. . . . Under these changes and other authorities asserted by the Bush Administration, U.S. intelligence agents could conduct a secret search of an American citizen&#8217;s home, use evidence found there to declare him an &#8220;enemy combatant,&#8221; and imprison him without trial. The courts would have no chance to review these decisions &#8212; indeed, they might never even find out about them.</em>&#8221; ~ Jay Stanley and Barry Steinhardt,</p>

	<p><strong>The Patriot Act took away the rights and freedom of the US people</strong>. It infringed and <span style="text-decoration: underline"><em>denies the people of the United States of American their inalienable rights and freedom</em></span>. See for yourself. The Bill of Rights has been attacked by the both the Bush and Obama government. The Patriot Act clearly violates the US supreme law, the US Constitution. The Patriot Act clearly is in violation of the First Amendment, Fourth Amendment, Fifth Amendment, Sixth Amendment, Seventh Amendment, Eighth Amendment, Ninth Amendment and Tenth Amendment. The Bush Administration&#8217;s Patriot Act is clearly in violation of US Law. It is an attack on the rights and freedoms of the US people.</p>

	<p><strong>The USA Patriot Act is forbidden by The United States Constitution - a Bill of attainder</strong></p>
	<p>A bill of attainder (also known as an act or writ of attainder) is an act of the legislature declaring a person or group of persons guilty of some crime and punishing them without benefit of a trial. <strong>The United States Constitution forbids both the federal and state governments to enact bills of attainder</strong>, in Article 1, Sections 9 and 10, respectively. It was considered an excess or abuse of the British monarchy and Parliament. No bills of attainder have been passed since 1798, that is until 2001. The Bush administration illegally passed a bill of attainder when they drew up and made law the USA Patriot Act. The Patriot Act is the US government usurping the law by declaring unjustly and unlawfully a person or group of persons guilty of some crime and punishing them without benefit of a trial.  The Bush administration violated US law when he and his government imposed the designation of &#8220;enemy combatant,&#8221; on all who opposed the Bush administration&#8217;s policies and agendas, not only in Iraq or Afghanistan but within the United States itself.  The designation of &#8220;enemy combatant&#8221; and the new Obama designation of &#8220;unlawful combatant&#8221; falsely and unlawfully allowed the United States government to hold suspected terrorists at length without criminal charges.  The &#8220;enemy combatant&#8221; or &#8220;unlawful combatant&#8221; designations are both bill of attainders that illegally declares a person or group of persons guilty of some crime and punishing them without benefit of a trial - The United States Constitution forbids both the federal and state governments from enacting such illegal bills of attainder.</p>
	<p>The provision in the <strong>United States Constitution forbiding both the federal and state governments from enacting bills of attainder</strong> reflects the importance that the framers attached to this issue, since the unamended constitution imposes very few restrictions on state governments&#8217; power.</p>
	<p>Within the U.S. Constitution, the clauses forbidding attainder laws serve two purposes. First, they reinforced the separation of powers, by forbidding the legislature to perform judicial functions&#8212;since the outcome of any such acts of legislature would of necessity take the form of a bill of attainder. Second, they embody the concept of due process, which was later reinforced by the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution. The text of the Constitution, Article I, Section 9; Clause 3 is &#8220;No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed&#8221;. The constitution of every State also expressly forbids bills of attainder. For example, Wisconsin&#8217;s constitution Article I, Section 12 reads:</p>
	<p><em><strong>No bill of attainder, ex post facto law</strong>, nor any law impairing the obligation of contracts, <strong>shall <span style="text-decoration: underline">ever</span> be passed</strong>, and no conviction shall work corruption of blood or forfeiture of estate.</em></p>
	<p>Contrast this with the subtly more modern variation of the Texas version: Article 1 (Titled Bill of Rights) Section 16, entitled Bills of Attainder; Ex Post Facto or Retroactive Laws: Impairing Obligation of Contracts: &#8220;No bill of attainder, ex post facto law, retroactive law, or any law impairing the obligation of contracts, shall be made&#8221;.</p>
	<p>The precedent that best reflects most of the original intention of the mandates is from Cummings v. Missouri. It states</p>
	<p><em>A bill of attainder, is a legislative act which <span style="text-decoration: underline">inflicts punishment without judicial trial</span> and includes any legislative act which <span style="text-decoration: underline">takes away the life, liberty or property of a particular named or easily ascertainable person or group of persons</span> because the legislature thinks them guilty of conduct which deserves punishment.</em></p>
	<p>The stated purpose of the USA Patriot Act is to &#8220;deter and punish American terrorists in the United States and around the world, to enhance law enforcement investigatory tools, and for other purposes.&#8221; One criticism of the Act is that &#8220;other purposes&#8221; often includes the detection and prosecution of non-terrorist alleged future crimes.

			<title>NATO linked to terrorism, war of aggression, murder, kidnapping and torture!</title>

			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/NATO_Diplomacy.jpg" alt="NATO_Diplomacy.jpg" title="NATO_Diplomacy.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="242" /><br />
<em>&#8220;The policies of the U.S. , since the end of the Cold War are complicated and vast. They involve an intent to dominate and the use of international organizations to advance U.S. economic and geopolitical interests. They also include the conversion of NATO into a surrogate military police force for globalization and U.S. world economic domination.&#8221;</em> -Ramsey Clark, 66th United States Attorney-General (October 6, 2000)</p>
	<p><strong>The North Atlantic Treaty</strong><br />
Washington D.C. - 4 April 1949</p>
	<p>The Parties to this Treaty reaffirm their faith in the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations and their desire to live in peace with all peoples and all governments.</p>
	<p>They are determined to <strong>safeguard the freedom, common heritage and civilisation of their peoples, founded on the principles of democracy, individual liberty and the rule of law</strong>. They seek to promote stability and well-being in the North Atlantic area.</p>
	<p>They are resolved to unite their efforts for <strong>collective defence and for the preservation of peace and security</strong>. They therefore agree to this North Atlantic Treaty :</p>
	<p>Article 1</p>
	<p>The Parties undertake, as set forth in the Charter of the United Nations, to <strong>settle any international dispute in which they may be involved by peaceful means in such a manner that international peace and security and justice are not endangered, and to <span style="text-decoration: underline">refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force in any manner</span></strong> inconsistent with the purposes of the United Nations.<br />
Article 2</p>
	<p>The Parties will contribute toward the further development of peaceful and friendly international relations by strengthening their free institutions, by bringing about a better understanding of the principles upon which these institutions are founded, and by promoting conditions of stability and well-being. They will seek to eliminate conflict in their international economic policies and will encourage economic collaboration between any or all of them.</p>
	<p>Article 3</p>
	<p>In order more effectively to achieve the objectives of this Treaty, <strong>the Parties, separately and jointly</strong>, by means of continuous and effective self-help and mutual aid, <strong>will maintain and develop their individual and collective capacity to <span style="text-decoration: underline">resist armed attack</span>.</strong></p>
	<p>At a time when experts are debating whether NATO is suited to deal with the global &#8220;war on terror&#8221; (US initiated World War of Terror), new research suggests that the alliance&#8217;s own secret history has links to terrorism.  This is about the creation of a global army for the new world order. NATO is part of that process.  We were told that NATO was created to support the UN but the truth is NATO was formed by the New World Order elite to be their army.  NATO has been selling itself as peace keepers when in fact they are aggressors.  Every major conflict or civil war has been offered NATO troops as a solution to the conflict by sending in UN &#8216;Peace Keepers&#8217; (Bosnia) or a UN &#8216;Coalition Force&#8217; (Gulf War) or NATO Bombers, then ground troops (Kosovo) and now Afghanistan. Once installed, the NATO &#8216;peace keepers&#8217; never leave (Bosnia, Kosovo, Afghanistan).  The idea is to have NWO controlled ground troops in all major countries or strategic areas where significant resistance to the New World Order takeover is likely to be encountered.  The US is stating that the US will be in Afghanistan for decades.  They are there on the false pretence of peace keeping when in fact they are there to rob the Afghan people of the $billion proceeds from the natural gas pipeline.  They are there with  the support of the New World Order&#8217;s Army - NATO.  They are there to grow Opium and then distribute the illegal drugs to the World.  The proceeds from the Opium in Afghanistan is financing NATO and the CIA&#8217;s illegal covert operations that include terrorism, torture, kidnapping and assassinations.  The sole purpose of NATO is to rob each country of their territorial sovereignty.       </p>
	<p>The corporate portion of the New World Order (NWO) pyramid is dominated by the privately owned US Federal Reserve which is controlled by international bankers and the big pharmaceutical cartels like Baxter (which is mass producing the deadly A-H1N1 laced vaccines), as well as other major multinational corporations. The Royal Family of England, namely Queen Elizabeth II and the House of Windsor, (who are, in fact, descendants of the German arm of European Royalty -the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha family which changed the name to Windsor in 1914 before the start of the NWO wars called WWI and WWII ), are high level players, along with the British oligarchy which controls the upper strata of the Illuminati. The decision making Illuminati nerve centers of  this effort are in the London (especially the City of London), Basel Switzerland, and Brussels (NATO headquarters).</p>
	<p>The United Nations, along with all the agencies working under the UN umbrella, such as the World Health Organization (WHO), are full time players in this scheme. NATO is the military tool of the NWO. </p>
	<p>Most of the major  wars, political upheavals,  and economic depression/recessions of the past 100 years (and earlier)  were carefully planned and instigated by the machinations of these elites. They include The Spanish-American War (1898), World War I and World War II; The Great Depression; the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917; the Rise of Nazi Germany; the Korean War; the Vietnam War; the 1989-91&#8221;fall&#8221; of Soviet Communism, the 1991 Gulf War;  and the recent War in Kosovo and the US / NATO war of aggression against Afghanistan in 2001. </p>
	<p>In Italy, on 3 August 1990, then-prime minister Giulio Andreotti revealed the existence of a secret army code-named &#8220;Gladio&#8221; - the Latin word for &#8220;sword&#8221; - within the state. His testimony before the Senate subcommittee investigating terrorism in Italy sent shockwaves through the Italian parliament and the public, as speculation arose that the secret army had possibly manipulated Italian politics through acts of terrorism.</p>
	<p>Andreotti revealed that the secret Gladio army had been hidden within the Defense Ministry as a subsection of the military secret service, SISMI. General Vito Miceli, a former director of the Italian military secret service, could hardly believe that Andreotti had lifted the secret, and protested:</p>
	<p><em>&#8220;I have gone to prison because I did not want to reveal the existence of this super secret organization. And now Andreotti comes along and tells it to parliament!&#8221; According to a document compiled by the Italian military secret service in 1959, the secret armies had a two-fold strategic purpose: firstly, to operate as a so-called &#8220;stay-behind&#8221; group in the case of a Soviet invasion and to carry out a guerrilla war in occupied territories; secondly, to carry out domestic operations in case of &#8220;emergency situations&#8221;.</em></p>
	<p>The military secret services&#8217; perceptions of what constituted an &#8220;emergency&#8221; was well defined in Cold War Italy and focused on the increasing strength of the Italian Communist and the Socialist parties, both of which were tasked with weakening NATO &#8220;from within&#8221;. Felice Casson, an Italian judge who during his investigations into right-wing terrorism had first discovered the secret Gladio army and had forced Andreotti to take a stand, found that the secret army had linked up with right-wing terrorists in order to confront &#8220;emergency situations&#8221;. The terrorists, supplied by the secret army, carried out bomb attacks in public places, blamed them on the Italian left, and were thereafter protected from prosecution by the military secret service. &#8220;You had to attack civilians, the people, women, children, innocent people, unknown people far removed from any political game,&#8221; right-wing terrorist Vincezo Vinciguerra explained the so-called &#8220;strategy of tension&#8221; to Casson.</p>
	<p>&#8220;<em>The reason was quite simple. They were supposed to force these people, the Italian public, to turn to the state to ask for greater security. This is the political logic that lies behind all the massacres and the bombings which remain unpunished, because the state cannot convict itself or declare itself responsible for what happened.</em>&#8221;</p>
	<p>Both NATO and US intelligence backed and supported the use of terror in Italy in order to discredit the political left during the Cold War. General Gerardo Serravalle, who had commanded the Italian Gladio secret army from 1971 to 1974, confirmed that the secret army &#8220;could pass from a defensive, post-invasion logic, to one of attack, of civil war&#8221;.  NATO believes that war is the ultimate means of attempting to change societies and reshape nations. </p>
	<p>It is through NATO&#8217;s constant warmongering and engagement in wars of aggression that they attempt forcibly restructure national economies and political structures. War is, potentially, the ultimate economic shock therapy. The wars in the Middle East are NATO&#8217;s stepping stones towards establishing a vision of global order that has been in the hearts and minds of the Anglo-American establishment for years. That vision is global ascendancy.</p>
	<p>Gary Hart, a former U.S. senator from Colorado, implied on September 14 of 2001 that the &#8220;Global War on Terror&#8221; sponsored by the Bush Jr. Administration was a pretext for establishing the so-called &#8220;New World Order.&#8221; Gary Hart also implicated NATO&#8217;s role in shaping this &#8220;New World Order.&#8221; The project is to be implemented by military might.  On October 7, 2001 as the U.S and NATO began their war of terror by attacking Afghanistan.  Afghanistan did not attack the US or any other country.  Afghanistan did not take part in the false flag attacks of September 11, 2001 against the US.  There was no civil war in Afghanistan.  Not a single US, Canadian or NATO states civilian has ever been killed by any Afghanistan military personnel, government official (the Taliban) or Afghan civilian.  The US, Canada and NATO are the enemy.  Afghanistan is the victim of a war of aggression, murder, genocide, torture and crimes against humanity as a result of the illegal actions of the US, Canada and NATO.  The US, Canada and NATO are mass murdering the innocent people of Afghanistan.  The US, Canada and NATO are all guilty of war crimes, crimes against peace and crimes against humanity.               </p>
	<p><strong>NATO&#8217;s link to terrorism, war of aggression, murder, kidnapping and torture </strong></p>
	<p>The Italian Senate chose to be more explicit and concluded in its investigation in 2000: &#8220;Those massacres, those bombs, those military actions had been organized or promoted or supported by men inside Italian state institutions and, as has been discovered more recently, by men linked to the structures of United States intelligence.&#8221; Ever since the discovery of the secret NATO armies in 1990, research into stay-behind armies has progressed only very slowly, due to very limited access to primary documents and the refusal of both NATO and the CIA to comment. On 5 November 1990, a NATO spokesman told an inquisitive press: &#8220;NATO has never contemplated guerrilla war or clandestine operations&#8221;.</p>
	<p>The next day, NATO officials admitted that the previous day&#8217;s denial had been false, adding that the alliance would not comment on matters of NATO military secrecy. On 7 November, NATO&#8217;s highest military official in Europe, Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR) US General John Galvin, together with NATO&#8217;s highest civilian official, Secretary-General Manfred Wörner, briefed NATO ambassadors behind closed doors. &#8220;Since this is a secret organization, I wouldn&#8217;t expect too many questions to be answered,&#8221; reasoned a senior NATO diplomat, who wished to remain unnamed. &#8220;If there were any links to terrorist organizations, that sort of information would be buried very deep indeed.&#8221; Former CIA director William Colby confirmed in his memoirs that setting up the secret armies in Western Europe had been &#8220;a major program&#8221; for the CIA. The project started after World War II in total secrecy, and access to information was limited &#8220;to the smallest possible coterie of the most reliable people, in Washington, in NATO&#8221; and in the countries concerned. Yet when in Italy in 1990 former CIA director Admiral Stansfield Turner was questioned on television on Gladio, he strictly refused to answer any questions on the sensitive issue, and as the interviewer insisted with respect for the terror victims, Stansfield angrily ripped off his microphone and shouted: &#8220;I said, no questions about Gladio!&#8221;, whereafter the interview was over.</p>
	<p>Only the parliaments in Italy, Switzerland, and Belgium had formed a special commission to investigate the national secret army, and after months or even years of research, presented a public report. Building on this data and secondary sources from numerous European countries, &#8220;NATO&#8217;s Secret Armies&#8221; confirms for the first time that the secret networks spread across Western Europe, with great details on networks in Germany, France, Spain, Portugal, Holland, Luxemburg, Belgium, Denmark, Norway, Italy, Greece, and Turkey, as well as the strategic planning of Britain and the US. The stay-behind armies were coordinated on an international level by the so-called Allied Clandestine Committee (ACC) and the Clandestine Planning Committee (CPC), linked to NATO&#8217;s Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe (SHAPE). And they used cover names such as &#8220;Absalon&#8221; in Denmark, &#8220;P26&#8221; in Switzerland, &#8220;ROC&#8221; in Norway or &#8220;SDRA8&#8221; in Belgium. Interestingly, large differences existed from country to country. In some nations the secret armies became a source of terror, while in others they remained a prudent precaution.</p>
	<p>In Turkey, the &#8220;Counter-Guerrilla&#8221; was involved in domestic terror and torture operations against the Kurds, while in Greece, the &#8220;LOK&#8221; took part in the 1967 military coup d&#8217;état to prevent a Socialist government. In Spain, the secret army was used to prop up the fascist dictatorship of Franco, and in Germany, right-wing terrorists used the explosives of the secret army in the 1980 terror attack in Munich. In other countries, including Denmark, Norway, and Luxemburg, the secret soldiers prepared for the eventual occupation of their home country and never engaged in domestic terror or manipulation. In the context of the ongoing so-called war on terror, the Gladio data promotes the sobering insight that governments in the West have sacrificed the life of innocent citizens and covered up acts of terrorism in order to manipulate the population.</p>

	<p>Heaven on Earth, we need it now<br />
I&#8217;m sick of all of this hanging around<br />
Sick of sorrow, sick of the pain<br />
I&#8217;m sick of hearing again and again<br />
That there&#8217;s gonna be peace on Earth </p>
	<p>Where I grew up there weren&#8217;t many trees<br />
Where there was we&#8217;d tear them down<br />
And use them on our enemies<br />
They say that what you mock<br />
Will surely overtake you<br />
And you become a monster<br />
So the monster will not break you </p>
	<p>And it&#8217;s already gone too far<br />
Who said that if you go in hard<br />
You won&#8217;t get hurt? </p>
	<p>Jesus can you take the time<br />
To throw a drowning man a line<br />
Peace on Earth<br />
Tell the ones who hear no sound<br />
Whose sons are living in the ground<br />
Peace on Earth<br />
No whos or whys<br />
No one cries like a mother cries<br />
For peace on Earth<br />
She never got to say goodbye<br />
To see the color in his eyes<br />
Now he&#8217;s in the dirt<br />
Peace on Earth </p>
	<p>They&#8217;re reading names out over the radio<br />
All the folks the rest of us won&#8217;t get to know<br />
Sean and Julia, Gareth and Ann and Breda<br />
Their lives are bigger than any big idea </p>
	<p>Jesus can you take the time<br />
To throw a drowning man a line<br />
Peace on Earth<br />
To tell the ones who hear no sound<br />
Whose sons are living in the ground<br />
Peace on Earth<br />
Jesus sing a song you wrote<br />
The words are sticking in my throat<br />
Peace on Earth<br />
Hear it every Christmas time<br />
But hope and history won&#8217;t rhyme<br />
So what&#8217;s it worth<br />
This peace on Earth </p>
	<p>Peace on Earth<br />
Peace on Earth<br />
Peace on Earth </p>

			<title>Earth Song</title>

			<description><![CDATA[	<p><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="326" width="400" data="http://youtube.com/v/KOnL5c8LMqM"><br />
<param name="movie" value="http://youtube.com/v/KOnL5c8LMqM" /></object><br />
<em>Earth Song by Michael Jackson - Jackson had expressed great interest in humanitarianism, equality and world peace.  Songs such as &#8220;Earth Song&#8221;, &#8220;Can You Feel It&#8221;, &#8220;We Are the World&#8221; and &#8220;Man in the Mirror&#8221; convey this.  The original Heal the World Foundation was a charitable organization founded by entertainer Michael Jackson in 1992. The foundation&#8217;s creation was inspired by his charitable single of the same name. Through his foundation, Jackson airlifted 46 tons of supplies to Sarajevo, instituted drug and alcohol abuse education and donated millions of dollars to less fortunate children.</em></p>
	<p>Vast swaths of agricultural lands are disappearing at an unprecedented rate.  Lands needed to grow the food to feed the World population are being sold to developers to build over priced commercial and residential complexes.  Trees come down and land is stripped clean of its food bearing topsoil to make way for new massive factories and a maze of new homes.  </p>
	<p>In case you haven&#8217;t noticed new homes are being built, void of any land.  No yard for your children to play in and be healthy.  No yard to go out to and utilize the healing power of the sun.  The sun provides the basis for all life on earth. The sun is the source of energy for all plants, and indirectly, for all animals. If the sun causes cancer, man wouldn&#8217;t be here today. Contrary to popular belief, sunbathing actually helps heal cancer of the skin while sunblock (which contains harmful chemicals and toxins) increases cancer risk . Can sunlight help prevent cancers and other diseases such as type 1 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and certain autoimmune and chronic diseases?  The answer is yes.  &#8220;In recent years we&#8217;ve all been trained to fear the sun, due to the threat of skin cancer. Nothing could be further from the truth. Now there is a growing belief that exposure to the sun may not actually cause skin cancer.  It is the chemicals that we put on our skin that is actually causing skin cancer.  Chemicals that are in the sunblocks, colognes, perfumes, moisturisers and soaps.  As a study published in the prestigious Cancer journal indicates, exposure to sun actually decreases cancer rates&#8221; The light and heat from the sun are indispensable to all nature. Humanity is also part of nature and needs sunlight for health and well being, for vitality and happiness. Sunlight was used for centuries to prevent and cure diseases.  Sunlight can heal us and help us in the future. Sunlight helps the body heal wounds and injuries and overcome virtually any illness. Dr. Carl Hoffminster wrote that soldiers in World War II healed and survived much better when their open wounds and broken bones were exposed to sunlight.  </p>
	<p>Today the new homes of these massive new sub-divisions are forcing people to stay inside where they become ill, both physically and mentally, and die sooner.  All because they live in homes void of any land.  A society of people which lives most of their lives indoors lack the necessary sunlight exposure that helps the body heal wounds and injuries and overcome virtually any illness.  A yard is also necessary for nourishing your body as it can also be used to grow your own fruit and vegetables.      </p>
	<p>While the developed and developing world engage in a pissing match on who should take the lead on addressing climate change&#8230;people (mostly the poor) die, get flooded out of their homes, while battling food shortages and disease. Meanwhile the human population continues to explode.   The world needs to invest $83 billion a year in agriculture in developing countries to feed 9.1 billion people in 2050, the United Nations&#8217; Food and Agriculture Organization projected.   Nothing could be further from the truth.  Money isn&#8217;t the answer.  The World only needs to stop raping the land by stop using the land for new development.  Instead of developing farm land, that is needed for growing food, we need to rethink how we build.  We need to start renovating instead of building new homes and factories.  We need to expand upwards and not outwards.  We need to make better use of the land in the cities and towns.  We need to start building hi rise factories instead of single story factories that take up acres of farm land.   We need to build housing complexes with a center green common area where the occupants of those complexes can go outside and take advantage of the healing Sun.  If we don&#8217;t start now, today, we will surely die of hunger, of disease and from wars that are fought to seize control of the last remaining land, food and water.   It starts by stopping the 1% of the World population (the rich) who are stealing 99.9% of the Earth&#8217;s bounty and hoarding it.

			<title>Unalienable right to abolish lawless government</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry091224-201535</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/independance_day.jpg" alt="independance_day.jpg" title="independance_day.jpg"  class="center" width="400" height="266" /> </p>
	<p>The Declaration of Independence - In 1776 representatives of the thirteen United Colonies lawfully declared their freedom and independence from tyrannical English government. Turning to the &#8220;Laws of Nature and of Nature&#8217;s God,&#8221; they asserted that as one people they were free to alter their monarchial form of government and to organize a new one on such principles as seemed most likely to secure their unalienable rights. Laying the foundation for a future constitutional government, the signers declared:</p>
	<p><em>When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature&#8217;s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.<br />
</em><br />
The Declaration asserted that government by consent was an unalienable right and employed it in three ways. The first involves the unalienable right to institute a government by the consent of the governed. The Declaration notes that &#8220;Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.&#8221; President George Washington declared, &#8220;The basis of our political systems is the right of the people to make and to alter their constitutions of government.&#8221; Abraham Lincoln called this &#8220;the leading principle - the sheet anchor of American republicanism.&#8221; This principle means that specific civil governments lawfully exist only at the behest of the people. Civil government cannot create or perpetuate itself without running roughshod over the basis of our political system. Civil government may not reorganize itself for the sake of expediency. Likewise, the federal government may exercise only those civil powers that are specifically granted to it in the Constitution. If a power is not granted, the general government does not possess it and therefore may not act as though it does possess it. Congress may not exercise jurisdiction not extended nor may it vest independent agencies with such jurisdiction. </p>
	<p>The general principle of consent is found throughout the Constitution. The Preamble asserts, &#8220;We the People, of the United States &#8230; do ordain and establish this Constitution &#8230;.&#8221;  The whole notion of constitutional government is predicated upon the requirement that people consent together to establish the form of civil government, and that political sovereignty is delegated directly to that government. Article I, section 1 reinforces this proposition. It notes that only the legislative powers specifically &#8220;granted&#8221; by the people of the United States may be exercised by the Congress. Therefore, Congress may only legislate with respect to those objects or purposes the people extended to Congress in writing.</p>
	<p>Government by consent is based on the unalienable right to disestablish a tyrannical or lawless government, that is, the right to alter or abolish the form of government. The Declaration asserts:</p>
	<p><em> [W]henever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.</em></p>
	<p>The phrase &#8220;destructive of these ends&#8221; refers to the unalienable rights which civil government is instituted to preserve. It was the right to alter or abolish the form of government which the people exercised when independence was declared. The nature of this right presumes that it is not to be exercised lightly. If wrongly employed, it could constitute treason.  </p>
	<p><em>&#8220;when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.&#8221;</em></p>
	<p>In other words, the people have the authority to correct, rebuke and alter their government, but not for light or transient reasons.</p>
	<p>Article V is an excellent example of the rule regarding alteration or abolition of the national form of government. Through amendments, the people can establish a more perfect government of the United States, that is, render it better able to accomplish its purpose of securing the God-given rights of the people.</p>
	<p>The unalienable right of government by consent is given by God to all people. Its legal expression is called government by consent and it has three components. The first is the right and duty of the people (not the civil government itself) to establish, institute or form a civil government. This takes into account the second component, the obligation to lay the foundation of that government on true principles, including the right to organize its civil powers in any lawful way so that it secures these and other rights. Thus the right of government by consent is not the right to merely establish a civil government, but to establish a civil government under the rule of law with the objective of establishing and organizing it in such a way as to better secure the rights of the people.</p>
	<p>The third component of government by consent is the right and duty of the people to disestablish a lawless government. Lawlessness implies tyrannical or despotic government. It takes into account factors which include the duration and design of the tyranny. It also includes considerations of how long the people will tolerate being reduced to slavery before they undertake a lawful alteration, disestablishment or abolition of that government. The words &#8220;establish&#8221; and &#8220;disestablish&#8221; are employed only for contrast. The Declaration uses the phrases &#8220;institute&#8221; and &#8220;alter or abolish.&#8221; Whether these words or those of &#8220;form&#8221; and &#8220;amend&#8221; are employed is not what is preeminently important. What is important is that the creation, alteration and destruction of the form of government, subject to certain procedural and substantive prerequisites, are unalienable. </p>
	<p>The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, however, rightly observe that the people can organize the power of government any way they desire, as long as they believe on good evidence that it will better secure their rights. The unalienable right to organize the powers of the federal government translated constitutionally into separate executive, legislative and judicial branches. It did not translate into extending to any of these branches the power to establish any independent agency or commission with power to exercise any rule-making authority binding on the society at large or segments thereof. Likewise, separating federal power into three constitutionally defined branches permits no combination of the power of those branches in an independent agency or commission. In short, it permits no fourth branch of general government, independent or otherwise, to be created by the government. The major issues regarding the organization of the federal government were settled by the people and recorded in the Constitution in 1787 and its amendments. The organization of the powers of the general government has not been entrusted by the Constitution to the general government itself.

			<title>US made laws, bills or sanctions only apply to the United States and US citizens</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry091224-173408</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/Us-map.gif" alt="Us-map.gif" title="Us-map.gif"  class="center" width="400" height="242" /> </p>
	<p>Do Canadians have to obey US laws?  US made laws, bills or sanctions only apply to US citizens &#8220;within&#8221; the United States.  Absolutely no country has to comply with any US made laws, bill or sanction.  The US government was not elected to be leader of Canada or any other country.  Canada is sovereign nation.  We have the right to self-government and no other country including the United States can interfere, influence, meddle or dictate Canadian policy and rule of law.  US citizens are subject to the laws of the country they are guests of or entered illegally as illegal immigrants or contractors.  In the case of US mercenary group Blackwater the US government might have given them immunity but immunity only applies from prosecution &#8220;within&#8221; the United States.   Blackwater, US contractors, diplomats and citizens are subject to all laws of Iraq or any other country they enter at the request of US State Department.  What Blackwater does is murder innocent people.  No matter where you go in the World murder is a capitol crime.  There is no immunity for murder - not even in the US.   </p>
	<p>Iran does not have to comply with US imposed sanctions and neither does any other country.  The US seizing of Iranian assets (namely money) is illegal because the US does not have authority over any other country, their people, their government, their military or their wealth.  Even in Iraq the US has absolutely no legal authority.  The Iraqi people have the right and duty to their country and to their people to resist the US occupation using as much force as required to force the end of the occupation and withdrawal of all foreign troops from Iraq.  Despite what the US White House claims the Iraqi people are innocent of any charge of terrorism because no Iraqi citizen was involved in 9/11.  Iraq did not attack the US.  Afghanistan did not attack the US.  No armed attack occurred against the US.  No act of war occurred against the US.  There is no war against terror it is the US White House&#8217;s war of terror.  They staged an attack against their own country and people so as to trick the US people into backing wars of aggression against innocent countries.  The White House took away the US people&#8217;s rights and liberties - not a phantom enemy they call al Qaeda.  Qaeda Arab translation is &#8220;the base&#8221;.  Al Qaeda is the CIA&#8217;s base for criminal acts of terror, assassination and sabotage.  Al Qaeda was created by the US to implement US policies around the World.  When they air alleged al Qaeda tapes and videos the US is actually the ones making new threats against the US and other countries.  The people of Iraq are resisting the illegal invasion and occupation of their country.  The people of Afghanistan and their legal Taliban government are resisting the the illegal invasion and occupation of their country.  The Resistance movement is not al Qaeda or terrorists.  The Resistance is being named Al Qaeda and terrorists by the invaders who are guilty of war crimes and crimes against humanity.    </p>
	<p>US made laws, bills or sanctions only apply to US citizens &#8220;within&#8221; the United States. Absolutely no country has to comply with any US made laws. The moment US citizens leave the United States they are subject to the laws of the country they are guests of or entered illegally as illegal immigrants or contractors. </p>
	<p>Any law that the US imposes on the Iraqi people for any length of time is not legal nor binding. US laws only apply to US citizens. US sanctions only apply to US businesses.  Sovereignty is the exclusive right to complete political (including legislative, judicial, and or executive) control over an area of governance, people, or oneself. A sovereign is the supreme lawmaking authority, subject to no other.  The US has no right to impose their will on Iraq, Iran or any other country.</p>

			<title>Vitamin D, made freely and naturally from exposure to sunlight, kills the H1N1 virus.  The H1N1 Vaccine does not.</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry091218-181422</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/vitamin-D.jpg" alt="vitamin-D.jpg" title="vitamin-D.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="256" /> </p>
	<p>The US government have been stating for the past 2 decades that it&#8217;s only a question of when a pandemic will come, not if it will come. Influenza A pandemics come every 30 years or so, severe ones every hundred years or so. The last pandemic, the Hong Kong flu, occurred in 1968 - killing 34,000 Americans. In 1918, the Great Flu Epidemic killed more than 500,000 Americans. So many millions died in other countries, they couldn&#8217;t bury the bodies. Young healthy adults, in the prime of their lives in the morning, drowning in their own inflammation by noon, grossly discolored by sunset, were dead at midnight. Their body&#8217;s own broad-spectrum natural antibiotics, called antimicrobial peptides, seemed nowhere to be found. An overwhelming immune response triggered by the over the counter drug Aspirin caused the white blood cells to release large amounts of inflammatory agents called cytokines and chemokines into the lungs of the doomed - resulting in millions of unnecessary deaths in 1918.</p>
	<p>Today we now have another Influenza A pandemic, or so the US government has declared.  The distinctions from this outbreak and past outbreaks is that this H1N1 influenza A viral outbreak was man made and intentionally released by the US government.  The virus was created in the biological weapons research labs at Fort Detrick Maryland.  It was created as a biological weapon for a political agenda.  It was created to target a specific group of people in the US public.  It is not contagious and because of this the US government had to declare a medical state of emergency in order to trick people into being infected with the H1N1 virus.  The only way for anyone to be infected with the virus is to have the virus injected directly into the blood stream - via a syringe (a vaccine).  Millions of people became infected with the H1N1 virus after they received the live virus laced vaccine or H1N1 drug treatment that also contained the live virus.  Those who the government claimed were infected by the H1N1 virus by coming into contact with another person with the virus, were actually sick with regular flu virus (the CDC maintains that seasonal flu kills 36000 Americans each year compared to just 3,198 H1N1 death for all of North America).  Seasonal flu kills between 4,000 to 8,000 Canadians and between 250,000 and 500,000 people worldwide each year. Yet as of late last week, seven months into this outbreak, H1N1 has killed a little as 161 Canadians and an estimated 6,260 people around the globe.   The US government distorted the facts in order to launch a nation wide vaccination program.  Millions are now infected with the H1N1 virus as a direct result of being vaccinated - the vaccine is the pandemic.  </p>
	<p>All those who have been infected with the US government made and dispersed H1N1 virus can be cured - naturally, safely and in most cases free of charge.  The WHO and the CDC have both stated that there is no cure for the H1N1 virus.  There are many cures.  A group of scientists from UCLA published a remarkable paper in the prestigious journal, Nature. In the article, the UCLA group confirmed two other recent studies, showing that a naturally occurring steroid hormone - a hormone most of us take for granted - was, in effect, a potent antibiotic. Instead of directly killing bacteria and viruses, the steroid hormone under question increases the body&#8217;s production of a remarkable class of proteins, called antimicrobial peptides. The 200 known antimicrobial peptides directly and rapidly destroy the cell walls of bacteria, fungi, and viruses, including the influenza virus, and play a key role in keeping the lungs free of infection. The steroid hormone that showed these remarkable antibiotic properties was plain old vitamin D - 2,000 units of vitamin D every day for the duration of the influenza season.</p>
	<p>Vitamin D is unique in the vitamin world by virtue of three facts. </p>
	<p>First, it&#8217;s the only known precursor of a potent steroid hormone, calcitriol, or activated vitamin D. Most other vitamins are antioxidants or co-factors in enzyme reactions. Activated vitamin D - like all steroid hormones - damasks the genome, turning protein production on and off, as your body requires. That is, vitamin D regulates genetic expression in hundreds of tissues throughout your body. This means it has as many potential mechanisms of action as genes it damasks.</p>
	<p>Second, vitamin D does not exist in appreciable quantities in normal human diets. True, you can get several thousand units in a day if you feast on sardines for breakfast, herring for lunch and salmon for dinner. The only people who ever regularly consumed that much fish are peoples, like the Inuit, who live at the extremes of latitude. The milk Americans depend on for their vitamin D contains no naturally occurring vitamin D; instead, the U.S. government requires fortified milk to be supplemented with vitamin D, but only with what we now know to be a paltry 100 units per eight-ounce glass.    </p>
	<p>The vitamin D steroid hormone system has always had its origins in the skin, not in the mouth. Until quite recently, when dermatologists and governments began warning us about the dangers of sunlight, humans made enormous quantities of vitamin D where humans have always made it, where naked skin meets the ultraviolet B radiation of sunlight. We just cannot get adequate amounts of vitamin D from our diet. If we don&#8217;t expose ourselves to ultraviolet light, we must get vitamin D from dietary supplements.</p>
	<p>The third way vitamin D is different from other vitamins is the dramatic difference between natural vitamin D nutrition and the modern one. Today, most humans only make about a thousand units of vitamin D a day from sun exposure; many people, such as the elderly or African Americans, make much less than that. How much did humans normally make? <strong>A single, twenty-minute, full body exposure to summer sun will trigger the delivery of 20,000 units of vitamin D into the circulation of most people within 48 hours.</strong> Twenty thousand units, that&#8217;s the single most important fact about vitamin D. Compare that to the 100 units you get from a glass of milk, or the several hundred daily units the U.S. government recommend as &#8220;Adequate Intake.&#8221; It&#8217;s what we call an &#8220;order of magnitude&#8221; difference.</p>
	<p>Humans evolved naked in sub-equatorial Africa, where the sun shines directly overhead much of the year and where our species must have obtained tens of thousands of units of vitamin D every day, in spite of our skin developing heavy melanin concentrations (racial pigmentation) for protecting the deeper layers of the skin. Even after humans migrated to temperate latitudes, where our skin rapidly lightened to allow for more rapid vitamin D production, humans worked outdoors. However, in the last three hundred years, we began to work indoors; in the last one hundred years, we began to travel inside cars; in the last several decades, we began to lather on sunblock and consciously avoid sunlight. All of these things lower vitamin D blood levels. The inescapable conclusion is that vitamin D levels in modern humans are not just low - they are aberrantly low.</p>
	<p>In the last several years, dozens of medical studies have called attention to worldwide vitamin D deficiency, especially among African Americans and the elderly, the two groups most likely to die from influenza. Cancer, heart disease, stroke, autoimmune disease, depression, chronic pain, depression, gum disease, diabetes, hypertension, and a number of other diseases have recently been associated with vitamin D deficiency. Was it possible that influenza was as well?</p>
	<p>There exists 3 medical mysteries:  (1) although the influenza virus exists in the population year-round, influenza is a wintertime illnesses; (2) children with vitamin D deficient rickets are much more likely to suffer from respiratory infections; (3) the elderly in most countries are much more likely to die in the winter than the summer (excess wintertime mortality), and most of that excess mortality, although listed as cardiac, is, in fact, due to influenza.</p>
	<p>Vitamin D, specifically Vitamin D deficiency explain these three mysteries, mysteries that account for hundreds of thousands of deaths every year? Studies have found the influenza virus is present in the population year-around; why is it a wintertime illness? Even the common cold got its name because it is common in cold weather and rare in the summer. Vitamin D blood levels are at their highest in the summer but reach their lowest levels during the flu and cold season. Could such a simple explanation explain these mysteries?</p>
	<p>The British researcher, Dr. R. Edgar Hope-Simpson, was the first to document the most mysterious feature of epidemic influenza, its wintertime surfeit and summertime scarcity. He theorized that an unknown &#8220;seasonal factor&#8221; was at work, a factor that might be affecting innate human immunity. Hope-Simpson was a general practitioner who became famous in the late 1960&#8217;s after he discovered the cause of shingles. British authorities bestowed every prize they had on him, not only because of the importance of his discovery, but because he made the discovery own his own, without the benefit of a university appointment, and without any formal training in epidemiology (the detective branch of medicine that methodically searches for clues about the cause of disease).</p>
	<p>After his work on shingles, Hope-Simpson spent the rest of his working life studying influenza. He concluded a &#8220;seasonal factor&#8221; was at work, something that was regularly and predictably impairing human immunity in the winter and restoring it in the summer. He discovered that communities widely separated by longitude, but which shared similar latitude, would simultaneously develop influenza. He discovered that influenza epidemics in Great Britain in the 17th and 18th century occurred simultaneously in widely separated communities, before modern transportation could possibly explain its rapid dissemination. Hope-Simpson concluded a &#8220;seasonal factor&#8221; was triggering these epidemics. Whatever it was, he was certain that the deadly &#8220;crop&#8221; of influenza that sprouts around the winter solstice was intimately involved with solar radiation. Hope-Simpson predicted that, once discovered, the &#8220;seasonal factor&#8221; would &#8220;provide the key to understanding most of the influenza problems confronting us.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Hope-Simpson had no way of knowing that vitamin D has profound effects on human immunity, no way of knowing that it increases production of broad-spectrum antimicrobial peptides, peptides that quickly destroy the influenza virus. We have only recently learned how vitamin D increases production of antimicrobial peptides while simultaneously preventing the immune system from releasing too many inflammatory cells, called chemokines and cytokines, into infected lung tissue.</p>
	<p>In 1918, when medical scientists did autopsies on some of the fifty million people who died during the 1918 flu pandemic, they were amazed to find destroyed respiratory tracts; sometimes these inflammatory cytokines had triggered the complete destruction of the normal epithelial cells lining the respiratory tract. It was as if the flu victims had been attacked and killed by their own immune systems. This is the severe inflammatory reaction that vitamin D has recently been found to prevent.</p>
	<p>Clinical research has shown that annual fluctuations in vitamin D levels explain the seasonality of influenza. The periodic seasonal fluctuations in 25-hydroxy-vitamin D levels, which cause recurrent and predictable wintertime vitamin D deficiency, predispose human populations to influenza epidemics. That influenza is a symptom of vitamin D deficiency in the same way that an unusual form of pneumonia (pneumocystis carinii) is a symptom of AIDS.  George Bernard Shaw was right when he said, &#8220;the characteristic microbe of a disease might be a symptom instead of a cause.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Vitamin D explains the following 14 observations:</p>
	<p>1. Why the flu predictably occurs in the months following the winter solstice, when vitamin D levels are at their lowest,</p>
	<p>2. Why the flu disappears in the months following the summer solstice,</p>
	<p>3. Why influenza is more common in the tropics during the rainy season,</p>
	<p>4. Why the cold and rainy weather associated with El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO), which drives people indoors and lowers vitamin D blood levels, is associated with influenza,</p>
	<p>5. Why the incidence of influenza is inversely correlated with outdoor temperatures,</p>
	<p>6. Why children exposed to sunlight are less likely to get colds,</p>
	<p>7. Why cod liver oil (which contains vitamin D) reduces the incidence of viral respiratory infections,</p>
	<p>8. Why scientists found that vitamin D-producing UVB lamps reduced colds and flu in schoolchildren and factory workers,</p>
	<p>9. Why scientists found that volunteers, deliberately infected with a weakened flu virus - first in the summer and then again in the winter - show significantly different clinical courses in the different seasons,</p>
	<p>10. Why the elderly who live in countries with high vitamin D consumption, like Norway, are less likely to die in the winter,</p>
	<p>11. Why children with vitamin D deficiency and rickets suffer from frequent respiratory infections,</p>
	<p>12. Why an observant physician (Rehman), who gave high doses of vitamin D to children who were constantly sick from colds and the flu, found the treated children were suddenly free from infection,</p>
	<p>13. Why the elderly are so much more likely to die from heart attacks in the winter rather than in the summer,</p>
	<p>14. Why African Americans, with their low vitamin D blood levels, are more likely to die from influenza and pneumonia than Whites are.</p>
	<p>High doses of Vitamin D kills the flu. The governments keep natural medicine very quiet because there is no money in it.   Vitamin D increases the immune system by 3-5 times and is BETTER than any vaccine at helping the immune system beat both the h5n1 (bird flu) virus and the H1N1 (Swine Flu) virus. </p>
	<p>Research from PubMed: In 1981, R. Edgar Hope-Simpson proposed that a &#8217;seasonal stimulus&#8217; intimately associated with solar radiation explained the remarkable seasonality of epidemic influenza. Solar radiation triggers robust seasonal vitamin D production in the skin; vitamin D deficiency is common in the winter, and activated vitamin D, 1,25(OH)2D, a steroid hormone, has profound effects on human immunity. 1,25(OH)2D acts as an immune system modulator, preventing excessive expression of inflammatory cytokines and increasing the &#8216;oxidative burst&#8217; potential of macrophages. Perhaps most importantly, it dramatically stimulates the expression of potent anti-microbial peptides, which exist in neutrophils, monocytes, natural killer cells, and in epithelial cells lining the respiratory tract where they play a major role in protecting the lung from infection. Volunteers inoculated with live attenuated influenza virus are more likely to develop fever and serological evidence of an immune response in the winter. Vitamin D deficiency predisposes children to respiratory infections. Ultraviolet radiation (either from artificial sources or from sunlight) reduces the incidence of viral respiratory infections, as does cod liver oil (which contains vitamin D). An interventional study showed that vitamin D reduces the incidence of respiratory infections in children.</p>
	<p>One reason why the flu may be more contagious in the winter time is because of the lack of sunlight. During the winter months people spend most of the time indoors.  During the summer months people spend most of the time outdoors.  The lack of sunlight, when we find shelter from the cold, prevents our skin from producing sufficient levels of vitamin D. There is now documented evidence about the roles of solar ultraviolet-B radiation and vitamin D in reducing case-fatality rates from the 1918-1918 influenza Pandemic in EU. &#8220;<em>There are two mechanisms whereby vitamin D can reduce the risk of death once the pandemic influenza virus infection took hold: reduced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and reduced risk of bacterial pneumonia. The type of vitamin D which can fight viruses can ONLY be made from natural sunlight. It is known as D3, which is made from sunlight when 7-dehydrocholesterol in our skin reacts with UV light.  It is then twice activated in the liver and kidney to make 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D. This attaches to receptors on genes that control their expression, which turn protein production on or off. Vitamin D regulates the expression of more than 1,000 genes throughout the body. They include genes in macrophages, cells in the immune system that, among other things, ATTACK AND DESTROY VIRUSES.&#8221;</em></p>
	<p>Definition of Cure - To heal, to make well, to restore to good health. Vitamin D is therefore a cure for the H1N1 virus</p>
	<p><strong>NEWS UPDATE</strong></p>
	<p>Hundreds of thousands of swine flu shots for children have been recalled because tests indicate the vaccine doses lost some strength, government health officials said Tuesday.</p>
	<p>The shots, made by Sanofi Pasteur, were distributed across the country last month and most have already been used, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.</p>
	<p>The issue is the vaccine&#8217;s strength. Tests done before the shots were shipped showed that the vaccines were strong enough. But tests done weeks later indicated the strength had fallen slightly below required levels.</p>
	<p>Why the potency dropped isn&#8217;t clear. &#8220;That&#8217;s the $64,000 question,&#8221; said Len Lavenda, a Sanofi Pasteur spokesman. </p>
	<p>The answer to the mystery is simple.  The H1N1 virus cannot survive past 7 days.  Biological weapons expert Marc S Griswold, who travelled to Mexico with President Obama on April 16, 2009 is the first documented and confirmed A-H1N1 swine flu infection case. The agent is patient zero. Patient zero infected several members of his family in Anne Arundel County, prompting assurances from the White House that the president was safe.</p>
	<p>Marc S. Griswold, a former Secret Service agent who was serving as the lead advance special agent for Energy Secretary Steven Chu on president Obama&#8217;s April trip to Mexico, said in an interview that the minor cough he developed in Mexico grew into swine flu. Although he has recovered and is back to work, he and his family have watched in shock as his illness has sparked national security concerns, severely strained his relationship with his brother (Griswold probably infected his nephew) and put his family at the center of rumors and panic in his Severna Park neighborhood. Griswold said in frustration on the front steps of his house. <strong>&#8220;We&#8217;ve been told we&#8217;re not contagious. We&#8217;re already past the seven-day mark for that.&#8221;</strong></p>
	<p><strong>How did the H1N1 virus spread globally?</strong></p>
	<p>Biological weapons expert Marc S. Griswold returned from Mexico on April 18, officials said, on United Flight 822 to Dulles International Airport. Washington Dulles International Airport is a public airport located 25 miles (40 km) west of the central business district of Washington, D.C., in Dulles, Virginia. Dulles is served by nearly a dozen U.S.-flagged carriers and nearly two dozen international carriers. Airlines serving Dulles provide non-stop service to over 80 domestic destinations and to over 40 international destinations. On a typical day, Dulles sees 1,000 to 1,200 flight operations.</p>
	<p>When word got out that Agent Marc S. Griswold was infected with the H1N1 virus the government was only concerned about the health of president Obama. No one sought to contact everyone on the same flight as Griswold. If you have a confirmed case of an influenza outbreak the immediate response is for the government to immediately track down everyone who came in contact with Patient Zero and initiate a quarantine. No one, not even Obama, bothered to spring into to action to prevent the spread of the H1N1 virus that the WHO has declared a pandemic. Obama, the WHO and the CDC failed to do their job to protect the people from this influenza outbreak. It is as if they wanted it to happen. Instead of quarantining Griswold, his family, and everyone who came in contact with Griswold on United Airlines Flight 822 they allowed the H1N1 influenza virus to spread. Dulles international airport was the hub for the H1N1 virus to spread globally.</p>
	<p>Obama has a responsibility to the people. As president he failed as miserably as George W Bush&#8217;s handling of Hurricane Katrina. Obama&#8217;s complete inaction shows complacency. Inaction could also imply conspiracy. Perhaps the rumours are true. Did Obama order a biological attack against Mexico and his own country? What was Obama&#8217;s motive to unleash a biological weapons grade influenza strain? What was the means? What opportunity did he have? Motive could be the Tax Day Tea Party which millions of ordinary US citizens participated in as a nation wide protest against Obama&#8217;s government policies and out of control spending that occurred on April 15, 2009 - the day before Obama landed in Mexico. Not even in office 100 days the people were angrily protesting and petitioning Obama and his government for change. Did Obama fear they would ask for his resignation? Did he react out of anger because the US people no longer saw him as their saviour and out of anger ordered the H1N1 virus released? He surely had the means. Fort Detrick where this new viral infection was created is just outside Washington DC. He did have Air Force One at his disposal as a means to transport the virus from Fort Detrick to Mexico. Air Force one is considered US soil no matter where it lands and as such no country can board it or inspect it. He did have an excuse to go to Mexico right away. Mexico had a very violent and deadly drug war going on until the first case of H1N1 virus was reported in Mexico. Before the H1N1 virus outbreak the news was reporting daily about the battle between the Mexican government and the drug lords. Bodies were being discovered by US border guards on a daily bases. That has all but stop as a result of the H1N1 flu.</p>
	<p>Bioterrorism is terrorism by intentional release or dissemination of biological agents (bacteria, viruses, or toxins); these may be in a naturally-occurring or in a human-modified form.</p>
	<p>According to the US-based Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC): A bioterrorism attack is the deliberate release of viruses, bacteria, or other germs (agents) used to cause illness or death in people, animals, or plants. These agents are typically found in nature, but it is possible that they could be changed to increase their ability to cause disease, make them resistant to current medicines, or to increase their ability to be spread into the environment.</p>
	<p>The very definition of bioterrorism (<strong>deliberate release of viruses, bacteria, or other germs (agents)</strong> used <strong>to cause illness or death</strong> in people, animals, or plants.) makes the H1N1 vaccine a bioweapon because it contains an adjuvant (additive) designed to weaken the immune system, and replicated RNA from the virus responsible for the 1918 pandemic Spanish flu, causing global sickness and mass death.

			<title>FuelReducer.com offers solutions to lowering your heating bill and ending wars of aggression to steal the World's remaining oil and natural gas supplies.</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry091213-120708</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/heat-lamp.jpg" alt="heat-lamp.jpg" title="heat-lamp.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="320" /> </p>
	<p>Looks like we are in for a long cold winter.  One thing for sure is that millions of people are going to pay dearly to heat their homes this winter.  Those with a tight budget are going to be affected the most.  Any increase in electrical, gas or oil costs is going to reduce their budget drastically.  Well Paul W Kincaid, Canadian owner and inventor of the <a href="http://fuelreducer.com">FuelReducer.com</a> line of products is going to let you in on a secret that will help you save hundreds of dollars on your home heating bill this winter.  This is a free tip, a gift.</p>
	<p>For the past 5 years Paul W Kincaid has been experimenting with several ways to help you heat your home.  The most cost effective heating source is the ordinary incandescent light bulb.  For as little as $1 you have a heating source that will help you heat your home.  </p>
	<p>How many of you have accidentally touched a light bulb that is on?  Its very painful.  Your skin has just suffered a first degree burn from touching the very hot light bulb.  How many have gotten a first degree burn from touching a baseboard heater?  Not very many if at all because the baseboard heater isn&#8217;t as hot as the light bulb.  The ordinary $1 incandescent light bulb is a very cheap source of heat.  The higher the wattage of the light bulb the hotter the lighter bulb will be.  A 100 watt bulb will give off more heat than a 50 watt incandescent light bulb and even more heat than a mercury contaminated fluorescent light bulb.  The best kept secret is that an <strong>incandescent light bulb is a very cheap source of heat</strong>.  Paul W Kincaid has been using 100 watt incandescent light bulbs to help heat his residence.  By using incandescent light bulbs your heating bill will be reduced as your oil furnace, baseboard heater or gas furnace will not have to kick on as much.  A baseboard heater consumes as much as 1000 watts and more to maintain a comfortable room temperature.  An incandescent light bulb can help maintain that same comfortable room temperature using a fraction of the energy and at a fraction of the cost.  The best light fixtures to use are the ones like the one pictured at the top of this article.  The metal reflector absorbs the heat from the incandescent light bulb and acts as a heat element.  The incandescent light bulb is very hot and the heat will transfer to the metal reflector shade making the shade a heat source too.  </p>
	<p>A word of caution.  The deflector shade will get hot.  If you have children make sure they are out of reach.  The ideal height is as low as possible to the ground.  Heat will rise so if you place it too high you will defeat the purpose of the light as a heating source.  You don&#8217;t see a baseboard heater installed near the ceiling.  They are always installed just a few inches off of the floor because in order for them to be effective the heat must be able to rise and fill the room.  The same applies to using an incandescent light bulb as a heating source.  The lower the better.    </p>
	<p>See for yourself.  Go ahead and leave the lights on.  Use 100 watts incandescent light bulbs in the winter to help heat your home and lower your heating bill.  The metal deflector light sockets in the photo can be bought at your local hardware store including Home Depot, Canadian Tire and any photography store.   </p>
	<p>Paul W Kincaid is currently working on developing new technology that will drastically reduce our dependency on oil. FuelReducer&#8217;s <a href="http://h2o-fuels.com">H2O - Water for Fuel Project</a> is focusing on fuelling the World with sea water instead of oil or gas. FuelReducer has recently developed a prototype that separates water (H2O) into Hydrogen and Oxygen using a low radio frequency. The amount of energy needed to split the water into a fuel and the life giving oxygen is very small. The applications are endless. Hydrogen fuel from sea water can be used to fuel electrical power generators, gas stoves, emergency power generators, boat engines, barbecues and gas furnaces to name a few.</p>
	<p>By using less oil and natural gas to heat your home means a drop in demand for oil and natural gas.  This will strongly deter gas and oil companies from advocating the US government to attack oil and natural gas rich foreign states.  Both US attacks against Iraq and Afghanistan were lobbied for by the US oil companies.  The US oil companies donated millions to both Bush and Obama&#8217;s presidential bids.  They put both Bush and Obama in office.  They put them there because both Bush and Obama agreed to steal the oil and natural gas of oil rich countries like Iraq and Afghanistan and put the US oil industry donors in control.  The only way for Bush and Obama to steal the very lucrative natural resources of Iraq and Afghanistan was with wars - US wars of terror, US wars of aggressions against both Iraq and Afghanistan. </p>
	<p>Using sea water as a fuel source will wipe out the warmongering US oil companies like Halliburton (a United States-based oilfield services corporation which Dick Cheney headed until he became vice-president of the United States.  Halliburton has close to 300 subsidiaries, affiliates, branches, brands and divisions worldwide most of which are now building the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline), Chevron Corporation (In 1992, George P. Shultz (Ronald Reagan&#8217;s Secretary of State from 1982&#8211;1989), who was a board member of Chevron Corporation, recommended Rice for a spot on the Chevron board. Chevron was pursuing a $10 billion development project in Kazakhstan and, as a Soviet specialist, Rice knew the President of Kazakhstan, Nursultan Nazarbayev. She traveled to Kazakhstan on Chevron&#8217;s behalf and, in honor of her work, in 1993, Chevron named a 129,000-ton supertanker SS Condoleezza Rice.  In 2001, Chevron Corporation acquired Texaco to form ChevronTexaco.), ExxonMobil, CentGas (consortium formed in the 1990s to develop and build the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline to link Turkmenistan&#8217;s abundant proven natural gas reserves with growing markets in Pakistan through Afghanistan), Union Oil Company of California (Unocal lobbied the US government to attack Afghanistan and remove the Taliban government and replace it with a US controlled government.  On August 10, 2005, Unocal merged with Chevron Corporation and became a wholly owned subsidiary. Unocal has now ceased operations as an independent company, but continues to conduct many operations as Union Oil Company of California, a Chevron company.).  It will stop the US aggressions against sovereign foreign states with vast oil and natural gas supplies.  Using sea water as the fuel for the World will also dramatically lower pollution output that carbon base fuels produce.  Using sea water as the fuel for the World means the total elimination of harmful emissions.

	<p><strong>Text of Obama&#8217;s Nobel Peace Prize speech</strong></p>
	<p><em>&#8230; the most profound issue surrounding my receipt of this prize is the fact that I am the Commander-in-Chief of a nation in the midst of two wars. One of these wars is winding down. The other is a conflict that America did not seek; one in which we are joined by forty three other countries - including Norway - in an effort to defend ourselves and all nations from further attacks.</p>
	<p>Still, we are at war, and I am responsible for the deployment of thousands of young Americans to battle in a distant land. Some will kill. Some will be killed.</em></p>
	<p><strong>Why Obama should be stripped of Nobel Peace Prize</strong></p>
	<p>Yes Obama you are Commander-in-Chief of a nation in the midst of two wars.  Wars that the US started.  Wars of aggression against two innocent countries.  The war of aggression against Afghanistan was a war that the US sought.  The US sought to overthrow the Taliban government in 1998, 3 years prior to the attacks of September 11, 2001.  Attacks that Afghanistan nor its Taliban government had no part in.  The evidence is clear and indisputable.  Afghanistan did not attack the US.  The US attacked Afghanistan.  None of the hijackers of 9/11 were Taliban or Afghan citizens.  The hijackers were Saudi Arabian.  There was never a threat from Afghanistan.  </p>
	<p><a href="http://commdocs.house.gov/committees/intlrel/hfa48119.000/hfa48119_0.HTM">The US decided in 1998 to overthrow the Taliban government and install a pro US government.</a>  Feb. 28, 1998 - Unocal VP International Relations addressed US House of Representatives clearly stating that the Taliban government should be removed and replaced by a government acceptable to his company. He argued that creation of a 42 inch oil pipeline across Afghanistan would yield a Western profit increase of 500% by 2015.  At the request of US Unocal Corporation the US government decided in 1998 to overthrow the Taliban government and take complete control of the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline (TAP or TAPI)- a natural gas and oil pipeline that US oil companies is to build to transport Caspian Sea natural gas from Turkmenistan through Afghanistan into Pakistan and then to India.   The US is joined by forty three other countries - including Norway - in a war of aggression against the country of Afghanistan.  The US and forty three other countries are all guilty of war crimes, crimes against peace and crimes against humanity.  Their motive is not one of self-defense or peace it is simply greed - to steal the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline building project and revenue away from the Afghan people and give it all to US oil companies. </p>
	<p>Regarding the placement of the Unocal Pipeline, a US Official delivered this ultimatum to the Taliban (via the Pakistani delegation acting as their interlocutors): &#8220;<em>Either you accept our offer of a carpet of gold, or we bury you under a carpet of bombs.&#8221; ~ <strong>May 15, 2001</strong></em></p>
	<p>Niaz Naik, a former Pakistani Foreign Secretary, was told by senior American officials in mid-July that military action against Afghanistan would go ahead by the middle of October. ~ <strong>July 2001</strong></p>
	<p>Oct. 7, 2001   US Military unprovoked armed aerial bombardment began in Afghanistan without any UN Resolution authorizing such a blatant violation of International law and treaties.  </p>
	<p>The Purposes of the United Nations are:</p>
	<p>   1. To maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace, and for the <strong>suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace</strong>, and to bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace; </p>
	<p>Article 2</p>
	<p># All Members shall settle their international disputes by peaceful means in such a manner that international peace and security, and justice, are not endangered.</p>
	<p># All Members shall <strong>refrain in their international relations from the <span style="text-decoration: underline">threat or use of force</span> against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state</strong>, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations.</p>
	<p><strong>War of aggression against Afghanistan key players</strong></p>
	<p>    *  Dick Cheney, VP: Until 2000 - President of Halliburton (in position to build the Afghan pipeline).<br />
    * Condoleezza Rice, National Security Advisor: 1991-2000 - Manager of Chevron Oil, and Kazakhstan go-between.<br />
    * Donald Evans, Sec. Commerce: former CEO, Tom Brown, Inc. (a $1.2 billion oil company).<br />
    * Gale Norton, Sec. Interior: former national chairwoman of the Coalition of Republican Environmental Advocates - funded by, among others, BP Amoco.<br />
    * Thomas White, Secretary of the Army: former Vice Chairman of Enron and a large shareholder of that company&#8217;s stock.</p>

			<title>Warmonger Obama receives Nobel Peace Prize.  Promised to END the WAR, instead escalated it.</title>

	<p>&#8220;<em>I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank.</em> &#8221; - Barack Obama Campaign Promise - October 27, 2007</p>
	<p>President Barack Obama plans to send 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan over six months, an accelerated timetable &#8212; with an endgame built in &#8212; that would have the first Marines there as early as Christmas.  Gasps and disbelief echoed through the Nobel Hall in Oslo as Barack Obama was unveiled as the winner of the 2009 Peace Prize.  How can a warmonger (a warmonger is a pejorative term that is used to describe someone who is eager to encourage a people or nation to go to war.) receive a noble peace prize?  The answer is money.  With $trillions stolen from the US people and money laundered through the privately owned US Federal Reserve bankers anyone can buy any title or award.  </p>
	<p>It was a jarring moment when Obama, in the midst of receiving the Nobel peace prize, said of his troops in Afghanistan &#8220;will kill. Some will be killed.&#8221;   He lauded Mohandas Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr., preachers of nonviolent action. But he added, &#8220;A nonviolent movement could not have halted Hitler&#8217;s armies.  So what action, what movement is required to halt the US&#8217;s armies?  According to Obama, who is now wrongly bestowed the honor of peace maker the only solution to stop his armies is violence. The legal precedents set by the Nuremberg Tribunal established that even Obama is responsible and accountable for his crimes . The establishment in law of crimes &#8220;against humanity&#8221; &#8211; acts offending the whole of mankind by their very nature &#8211; in Article 6 of the charter, and the attributing of individual (as opposed to state) responsibility for such crimes, voided any and all immunity shrouding the heads of state and the architects of mass atrocity.</p>
	<p>The  Nuremberg tribunals were the first international courts established to try crimes against international law, and they firmly established the responsibility of individuals, at whatever level they participate in atrocities, as well as denying immunity to political leaders. And substantively, crimes against humanity&#8212;meaning atrocities on a large scale&#8212;was articulated for the first time as a criminal offence, to be joined not long after by genocide as the most egregious offences in the international legal lexicon.  Benjamin Ferencz, chief prosecutor for the United States at the tribunal, stated in the trial against the Nazi Einsatzgruppen: &#8220;The case we present is a plea of humanity to law &#8230; if these men be immune then the law has lost its meaning and man must live in fear&#8221;.</p>
	<p>During the trial, the chief American prosecutor, Robert H. Jackson, stated:</p>
	<p>To initiate a war of aggression, therefore, is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole. </p>
	<p> Make no mistake: Evil does exist in the world and its all emanating from the US government.  The US government is no different than Hitler&#8217;s Nazi Regime. The US government is carbon copying Hitler&#8217;s Nazi Imperialism.  The US government is the axis of evil.  The US government must be stopped.  The US government must be held accountable.  The US government must be put on trial for their crimes against humanity.  The US government must face their Nuremberg Tribunal.

			<title>Americans don't need the White House or Congress's permission to file charges against their leaders.</title>

			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/9-11LibertyWTC.jpg" alt="9-11LibertyWTC.jpg" title="9-11LibertyWTC.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="249" /><br />
<em>The Statue of Liberty represents, freedom, liberty, justice and also the friendship of foreign nations who also believe in freedom and fair and equal treatment for all.  No terrorist took away the freedom, liberty and justice of the American people - the US government did that.  Terrorists didn&#8217;t draw up the Patriot Act, create the Department of Homeland Security, spy illegally on Americans, launch 2 unprovoked armed attacks against 2 foreign states, abolish habeas corpus, kidnap, deport, torture and murder foreign civilians - the US government did that.</em></p>
	<p>&#8220;<em>After 4+ years of research since retirement in 2002, I am 100% convinced that the attacks of September 11, 2001 were planned, organized, and committed by treasonous perpetrators that have infiltrated the highest levels of our government.  It is now time to take our country back</em>&#8221;</p>
	<p>&#8220;<em>We cannot let the pursuit of justice fail.  Those of us in the military took an oath to &#8220;support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.  Just because we have retired does not make that oath invalid, so it is not just our responsibility, it is our duty to expose the real perpetrators of 9/11 and bring them to justice, no matter how hard it is, how long it takes, or how much we have to suffer to do it</em>.&#8221;</p>
	<p>&#8220;<em>We owe it to those who have gone before us who executed that same oath, and who are doing the same thing in Iraq and Afghanistan right now.  Those of us who joined the military and faithfully executed orders that were given us had to trust our leaders.  The violation and abuse of that trust is not only heinous, but ultimately the most accurate definition of treason!</em>&#8221;   -  Lt. Col. Guy S. Razer, MS, U.S. Air Force (ret).  </p>
	<p>Americans, all it takes to have a trial is one solid piece of evidence to take to a federal judge.  The US people don&#8217;t have to wait for the government to launch an investigation and trial into who ordered and executed the attacks of September 11, 2001.  Evidence still exists even after 8 years  and any American citizen or group can file charges with any federal court in the US with the evidence they have.  </p>
	<p>There is no statute of limitation on any charge involving a murder, including attempted. If a victim died (2,976 victims in the September 11, 2001 attacks) because of the attack and it can be proven, the bad guy(s) would face murder charges.  Americans don&#8217;t need the White House or Congress&#8217;s permission to file charges of treason or murder - the US courts are bound by law to hear all cases put before them by the citizens of the United States of America.

			<title>Benazir Bhutto declared in an interview just before she was assassinated by the CIA that bin Laden Is Dead.</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry091207-200553</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="326" width="400" data="http://youtube.com/v/oIO8B6fpFSQ"><br />
<param name="movie" value="http://youtube.com/v/oIO8B6fpFSQ" /></object></p>
	<p><strong>Silenced by US for exposing US dirty little secret.</strong><br />
Benazir Bhutto declared in an interview just before she was assassinated by the CIA, that bin Laden Is Dead.  bin Laden being confirmed dead means US NATO war in Afghanistan is a war crime.  War in Afghainstan illegal under US, Canadian, British and International Law.  Declared 6 minutes and 10 seconds (6:10) into the interview.  Benazir Bhutto was assassinated December 27, 2007 just 13 days before a general election that she was well placed to win.</p>
	<p>Benazir Bhutto paid the ultimate price for stating that the US imperial policy of propping up tin horn dictators causes world terrorism. She dared to say so. The late Benazir Bhutto laid &#8220;terrorism&#8221; at the White House doorstep, blaming US policies for causing, fueling and inspiring what US regimes call &#8220;terrorism&#8221;.</p>
	<p><em>&#8220;When the United States aligns with dictatorships and totalitarian regimes, it compromises the basic democratic principles of its foundation &#8212; namely, life, liberty and justice for all. Dictatorships such as Musharraf&#8217;s suppress individual rights and freedoms and empower the most extreme elements of society. Oppressed citizens, unable to represent themselves through other means, often turn to extremism and religious fundamentalism.&#8221;</em> ~ Benazir Bhutto,</p>
	<p>The root causes of &#8220;terrorism&#8221; are US imperialistic policies, specifically the material and diplomatic support of dictators like Musharraf and earlier, Saddam Hussein and the Shah of Iran, et al.  War is a racket fought by the masses for privileged elites, big corporations, and venal politicians like Bush. The war racket creates victims in the US and enemies &#8211;potential terrorists &#8211;abroad.</p>
	<p>War policies benefit a tiny elite, no-bid contractors like Halliburton, Blackwater and their stockholders. The war against Iraq is financed by America&#8217;s working poor and middle classes who continue to pay for the war with their lives abroad and with their jobs, their retirement prospects, and their access to health care at home.</p>
	<p><em>Just two days after 9/11, I learned from Congressional staffers that Republicans on Capitol Hill were already exploiting the atrocity, trying to use it to push through tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy. &#8230; We now know that from the very beginning, the Bush administration and its allies in Congress saw the terrorist threat not as a problem to be solved, but as a political opportunity to be exploited. The story of the latest terror plot makes the administration&#8217;s fecklessness and cynicism on terrorism clearer than ever.</em> ~  Hoping for Fear, by Paul Krugman, Using Fear Commentary, NY Times</p>
	<p>Americans are less safe under the dictators of &#8220;Imperial America&#8221;. According to the Pew Research Center, American skepticism about the war in Iraq has increased steadily from its inception. The war in Iraq, like American imperial policies cause terrorism.</p>

			<title>US decided to attack Afghanistan in 1998.  To steal control of the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline from the Taliban government and Afghan people.</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry091207-175039</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/pipeline.jpg" alt="pipeline.jpg" title="pipeline.jpg"  class="center" width="320" height="336" /><br />
<em>The US, Canadian and NATO war of aggression against Afghanistan, that was illegally waged beginning October 7, 2001 wasn&#8217;t a war against terror but a war of aggression to take away the financial future of the Afghan people - the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline</em></p>
	<p>Central Asia Gas Pipeline, Ltd. (CentGas) was a consortium formed in the 1990s to develop a project to build the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline to link Turkmenistan&#8217;s abundant proven natural gas reserves with growing markets in Pakistan. The Group led by Union Oil Company of California (Unocal) and Delta Oil Company, Ltd., of Saudi Arabia had also considered an extension of the line to the New Delhi area. Regional and political instability proved too great a challenge to overcome and the project eventually was cancelled after Unocal (the largest CentGas investor) withdrew from the consortium.</p>
	<p>The Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline (TAP or TAPI) is a natural gas pipeline being developed by the Asian Development Bank. The pipeline will transport Caspian Sea natural gas from Turkmenistan through Afghanistan into Pakistan and then to India. The abbreviation comes from the first letters of those countries. Proponents of the project see it as a modern continuation of the Silk Road. The AfghanTaliban government was expected to receive 8% of the project&#8217;s revenue.  But that figured was changed to 0% when the US decided that they wanted complete control of the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline in 1998 and plans for an invasion were drawn up by the Clinton administration and executed by the George W Bush administration. They had decided in 1998 that they would devise a plan to take control of the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline by staging a false flag terrorist attack on US soil and blame the Taliban government.  The attacks of September 11, 2001 was the false flag attack that gave the US an excuse to attack Afghanistan and take the economic future of the Afghan people from them - the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline.   </p>
	<p>The original project started in March 1995 when an inaugural memorandum of understanding between the governments of Turkmenistan and Pakistan for a pipeline project was signed. In August 1996, the Central Asia Gas Pipeline, Ltd. (CentGas) consortium for construction of a pipeline, led by U.S. oil company, Unocal was formed. On 27 October 1997, CentGas was incorporated in formal signing ceremonies in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan by several international oil companies along with the Government of Turkmenistan. In January 1998, the Taliban, selecting CentGas over Argentinian competitor Bridas Corporation, signed an agreement that allowed the proposed project to proceed. In June 1998, Russian Gazprom relinquished its 10% stake in the project. Unocal withdrew from the consortium on 8 December 1998 after negotiations between them and the Taliban government broke off.  The Taliban wanted a bigger stake in the project for the Afghan people.  The Taliban were seeking to guarantee the prosperity of the Afghan people as a result of the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline but the US wasn&#8217;t willing to give the Afghan people their fair share of the profits.</p>
	<p>The 1,680 kilometres (1,040 mi) pipeline will run from the Dauletabad gas field to Afghanistan. From there TAPI will be constructed alongside the highway running from Herat to Kandahar, and then via Quetta and Multan in Pakistan. The final destination of the pipeline will be the Indian town of Fazilka, near the border between Pakistan and India.</p>
	<p>The US government used the Saudi 9/11 attacks as an excuse to use unlawful military force against Afghanistan.  A crime against peace, in international law, refers to &#8220;planning, preparation, initiation, or waging of wars of aggression, or a war in violation of international treaties, agreements or assurances, or participation in a common plan or conspiracy for the accomplishment of any of the foregoing&#8221;. This definition of crimes against peace was first incorporated into the Nuremberg Principles and later included in the United Nations Charter.  </p>
	<p>To initiate a war of aggression, therefore, is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole.</p>
	<p>The interdiction of aggressive war was confirmed and broadened by the United Nations&#8217; Charter, which states in article 2, paragraph 4 that:</p>
	<p><em>All Members shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations.</em></p>
	<p>    * The &#8220;territorial integrity&#8221; rule means that it is a crime of aggression to use armed force with intent permanently to deprive a state of any part or parts of its territory, not excluding territories for the foreign affairs of which it is responsible;</p>
	<p>    * The &#8220;political independence&#8221; rule means that it is a crime of aggression to use armed force with intent to deprive a state of the entirety of one or more of the prerequisites of statehood, namely: defined territory, permanent population, constitutionally independent government and the means of conducting relations with other States;</p>
	<p>    * The &#8220;sovereignty&#8221; rule means that it is a crime of aggression to use armed force with intent to overthrow the government of a state or to impede its freedom to act unhindered, as it sees fit, throughout its jurisdiction.</p>
	<p>The US began planning for and preparing for an attack against Afgahnistan in 1998 - a war of aggression with the sole purpose to take control of the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline.  The US plan to simply take control of the natural gas of Central Asia is laid out in the <a href="http://commdocs.house.gov/committees/intlrel/hfa48119.000/hfa48119_0.htm#17">1998 US Congress Hearing U.S. INTERESTS IN THE CENTRAL ASIAN REPUBLICS.</a>  </p>
	<p>Excerpts from this Congressional hearing in 1998 whereby the US laid out its plan to seize control of the Central Asian Natural Gas and Oil: </p>
	<p>48&#8211;119 CC<br />
1998<br />
U.S. INTERESTS IN THE CENTRAL ASIAN REPUBLICS HEARING</p>
	<p>BEFORE THE</p>
	<p>SUBCOMMITTEE ON ASIA AND THE PACIFIC</p>
	<p>OF THE</p>
	<p>COMMITTEE ON INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS </p>
	<p>HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES ONE HUNDRED FIFTH CONGRESS</p>
	<p>SECOND SESSION</p>
	<p>THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1998<br />
House of Representatives,<br />
Subcommittee on Asia and the Pacific,<br />
Committee on International Relations,</p>
	<p>Mr. BEREUTER. I would like to proceed to the subject of the hearing for today, U.S. interests in the Central Asian Republics. I do have a statement. One hundred years ago, Central Asia was the arena for a great game played by Czarist Russia, Colonial Britain, Napoleon&#8217;s France, and the Persian and the Ottoman Empires. Allegiances meant little during this struggle for empire building, where no single empire could gain the upper hand. One hundred years later,<strong> the collapse of the Soviet Union has unleashed a new great game, where the interests of the East India Trading Company have been <span style="text-decoration: underline">replaced by those of Unocal and Total</span>, and many other organizations and firms.</strong></p>
	<p>Today the Subcommittee examines the interests of a<strong> new contestant </strong>in this new <strong>great game</strong>, <strong>the United States</strong>. The five countries which make up Central Asia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan, attained their independence in 1991, and have once again captured worldwide attention due to the <strong>phenomenal reserves of oil and natural gas located in the region</strong>. In their desire for political stability as well as economic independence and prosperity, these nations are anxious to establish relations with the United States. In response, last November, Secretary of Energy Frederico Pena led a Presidential mission to the Caspian-Central Asian region for discussions. The area&#8217;s energy resources were also discussed during November visits to Washington of Kazakhstani President Nazarbayev and Uzbek Prime Minister Sultanov.</p>
	<p><strong>Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan possess large reserves of oil and natural gas</strong>, both on-shore and off-shore in the Caspian Sea, which they urgently seek to exploit. Uzbekistan has oil and gas reserves that may permit it to be self-sufficient in energy and gain revenue through exports. <strong>Estimates of Central Asian oil reserves</strong> vary widely, but are usually said to <strong>rival those of the North Sea or Alaska</strong>. More accurate estimates of oil and gas resources await wider exploration and the drilling of test wells.</p>
	<p>Stated <strong>U.S. policy goals regarding energy resources in this region include fostering the independence of the States and their ties to the West; <span style="text-decoration: underline">breaking Russia&#8217;s monopoly over oil and gas transport routes</span>; promoting Western energy security through diversified suppliers; encouraging the <span style="text-decoration: underline">construction of east-west pipelines that do not transit Iran</span>; and <span style="text-decoration: underline">denying Iran dangerous leverage over the Central Asian economies</span>.</strong></p>
	<p>In addition, as has been noted by Deputy Secretary of State Strobe Talbott, <strong>the United States seeks to discourage any one country from gaining control over the region</strong>, but rather urges all responsible States to cooperate in the exploitation of regional oil and other resources. </p>
	<p>Central Asia would seem to offer significant new investment opportunities for a broad range of American companies which, in turn, will serve as a valuable stimulus to the economic development of the region. Japan, Turkey, Iran, Western Europe, and China are all pursuing economic development opportunities and challenging Russian dominance in the region. <strong>It is essential that U.S. policymakers understand the stakes involved in Central Asia as we seek to <span style="text-decoration: underline">craft a policy that serves the interests of the United States and U.S. business.</span></strong></p>
	<p>On the other hand, some question the importance of the region to U.S. interests, and dispute the significance of its resources to U.S. national security interests. Others caution that <strong>it will take a great deal of time and money to bring these resources to world markets.</strong> Still others point to civil and ethnic conflicts in Tajikistan and Afghanistan as a reason to avoid involvement beyond a minimal diplomatic presence in the area.</p>
	<p>Unocal foresees a pipeline which would become part of a regional system that will gather oil from existing pipeline infrastructure in Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Russia. The 1,040-mile long oil pipeline would extend south through Afghanistan to an export terminal that would be constructed on the Pakistan coast. This 42-inch diameter pipeline will have a shipping capacity of one million barrels of oil per day. The estimated cost of the project, which is similar in scope to the trans-Alaska pipeline, is about $2.5 billion. </p>
	<p>&#8230;</p>
	<p>The Central Asia and Caspian region is blessed with abundant oil and gas that can enhance the lives of the region&#8217;s residents, and provide energy for growth in both Europe and Asia. The impact of these resources on U.S. commercial interests and U.S. foreign policy is also significant. Without peaceful settlement of the conflicts in the region, cross-border oil and gas pipelines are not likely to be built. We urge the Administration and the Congress to give strong support to the U.N.-led peace process in Afghanistan. The U.S. Government should use its influence to help find solutions to all of the region&#8217;s conflicts.</p>
	<p>U.S. assistance in developing these new economies will be crucial to business success. We thus also encourage strong technical assistance programs throughout the region. Specifically, we urge repeal or removal of section 907 of the Freedom Support Act. This section unfairly restricts U.S. Government assistance to the government of Azerbaijan and limits U.S. influence in the region.</p>
	<p>Developing cost-effective export routes for Central Asian resources is a formidable task, but not an impossible one. Unocal and other American companies like it are fully prepared to undertake the job and to make Central Asia once again into the crossroads it has been in the past. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.<br />
&#8230;<br />
Mr. BEREUTER. .. I do recognize and agree with you about the place where the major oil demand is growing in the world. I understand why <strong>a southern directed route is more advantageous</strong> to serve that. I heard what you had to say about the inadequacy of a pipeline to serve the oil potential if exploited in that region. I wonder if you could address this point to start with. <strong>Given the long history of violence in Afghanistan, can Unocal reasonably expect a pipeline to remain secure</strong>?</p>
	<p>Mr. MARESCA. First, <strong>on the question about Afghanistan</strong>, of course<strong> we&#8217;re not in a phase where we are negotiating on a contract because there is <span style="text-decoration: underline">no recognized government</span> really to negotiate with</strong>. However, we have had talks and briefings with all the factions. It is clear that they all understand the significance for their country of this pipeline project, and they all support it, all of them. They all want it. They would like it to start tomorrow. All of the factions would like it to start tomorrow if we could do it.</p>
	<p>So I believe that over time, if it&#8217;s built, it would be secure. I believe that the Afghans will see it as <strong>a national asset</strong> once it&#8217;s built. It will provide them <strong>with many millions of dollars in transit fees</strong>. <strong>It will provide them with real jobs and technology and a lot of other things.</strong>  It&#8217;s not going to be built until there is a single Afghan Government.</p>
	<p>So what did the US do?  On October 7, 2001 the US attacked Afghanistan, not out of self-defense but to take from the Afghan people its very lucrative financial future.  The only way the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline can be built is by invading Afghanistan and installing a government that the US government can control.  A single Afghan Government that was installed by military force and kept there by military force.  To distract the people of Afghanistan, the US, Canada and other NATO nations the US government came up with a plan that would falsely accuse the Taliban of being terrorists by allegedly harbouring a Saudi born and US made terrorist - bin Laden.  Make no mistake, the illegal war and occupation of the sovereign state of Afghanistan will continue so long as the US remains in control of the oil and natural gas of the Caspian Region.  In order to achieve that the US, Canada and NATO must commit and are committing the worst war crime of all war crimes - the genocide of the Taliban.</p>
	<p>Friday, 27 December, 2002 the <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/2608713.stm">BBC reported &#8220;Central Asia pipeline deal signed&#8221;</a>.  An agreement has been signed in the Turkmen capital, Ashgabat, paving the way for construction of a gas pipeline from the Central Asian republic through Afghanistan to Pakistan. After the US illegally invaded and ousted the legal Taliban government of the sovereign state of Afghanistan the governments of the US occupied Afghanistan, Turkmenistan and Pakistan decided to push ahead with plans for the ambitious 1,500-kilometre-long gas pipeline.   The leaders of the three countries have now signed a framework agreement defining the legal aspects of setting up a consortium to build and operate the pipeline. The trans-Afghanistan pipeline will begin exporting Turkmen gas via Afghanistan to Pakistani ports, from where it could reach world markets.  India is the largest potential buyer and the US installed Afghan President (CIA money man during the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan and drug warlord), Hamid Karzai, said Delhi was welcome to join the project. </p>
	<p>The U.S. Army&#8217;s Law of Land Warfare (Field Manual 27-10) states:</p>
	<p>498. Crimes Under International Law ~  Any person, whether a member of the armed forces or a civilian, who commits an act which constitutes a crime under international law is responsible therefor and liable to punishment. Such offenses in connection with war comprise:</p>
	<p>        a. Crimes against peace.<br />
        b. Crimes against humanity.<br />
        c. War crimes.</p>
	<p>    Although this manual recognizes the criminal responsibility of individuals for those offenses which may comprise any of the foregoing types of crimes, members of the armed forces will normally be concerned, only with those offenses constituting &#8220;war crimes.&#8221;

<em>John Lennon and Yoko Ono wanted the Vietnam War to end.  &#8220;<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8jw-ifqwkM">Happy Xmas (War Is Over)</a>&#8221; was their plea to end war.  This Holiday Season make this song our universal call for &#8220;Peace&#8221;</em></p>
	<p>Letter from a U.S. citizen &#8220;addressed to the World&#8221; - January 16, 2007</p>
	<p><em>There is a large majority of Americans who are terrified by our governments inability to hear our voices. We do not want war. Not with you, not with anyone. We admire your ancient culture and respect your religious beliefs. While our government takes steps toward instigating another illegal war, this time on your great nation, we, the majority of United States citizens, are trying everything that is in our power to prevent this.</p>
	<p>We have recently elected new officials in Congress, which we believe and hope will stand up with us in our desires to put an end to our current administration&#8217;s designs of global occupation. However, we seem to have very little say in these matters anymore. While we may scream at the top of our lungs about how we feel, write letters to our officials, protest in the streets, demand accountability for our leaders&#8217; actions, our president ignores us and continues his one-man circus act.</p>
	<p>I wish to apologize to the people of Iran now, and assure you that we will do everything in our power to prevent our government leaders from another grave mistake in foreign policy.</p>
	<p>Now, the people of Iraq hear me out.</p>
	<p>Please understand our sorrow in what our leaders have done to your nation. While most of us believe that Saddam Hussein was a terrible dictator, we also understand that for many years, our country supported him and only deposed him as the president of Iraq when it was beneficial to our government. Our leaders lied to us about the threat of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.</p>
	<p>Most of our citizens at the time were quite fearful over what was happening in the world due to the attacks on September 11, 2001, and our president used that fear to further his personal agenda. It was WRONG. It was not our place to overthrow a dictator; it was yours if you so choose.</p>
	<p>However, now your country is in ruins and many people die every day. Our president has just said that this is &#8220;unacceptable&#8221; to him. As usual, it seems that his words are woefully inadequate. Unacceptable is not a word to use when tens of thousands of people have died, and many more will in the time to come.</p>
	<p>We cannot fix this mess. We can only make it worse. The majority of American people want our troops to be drawn down in your country to allow the Iraqi people a chance to help themselves. Please understand that we do not want to just abandon you. We wish to support you with our finances, our expertise in technology, our moral support, anything except more lives.</p>
	<p>I know that you have suffered beyond anything that the US has ever suffered. But now is the time to send a message to the world that you do not need the United States to continue to occupy your sovereign nation. On behalf of most American citizens, we are eternally sorry for what we have allowed to be done to you. </p>
	<p><strong>To the people of the United States&#8230;</strong></p>
	<p>Are you afraid?  I am.  Not of Al-Qaeda, not of Sunni or Shia militias, not of insurgents, not of so-called &#8220;Islamofascist&#8221;, not of dirty bombs, not of having to &#8220;fight them here&#8221;, not of a nuclear Iran, not of planes blowing up, not of anthrax in the mail, not of Hamas, not of Hezbollah, not of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMDs), or of terrorist cells in my backyard.</p>
	<p>I am not afraid of any of the things that our government has worked so hard to scare me into believing is at my doorstep. Instead, I am afraid of our government. Can we forget about the lies that we were told over and over again by our leaders? Can we forget about the atrocities committed in our name? Can we forget the way the rest of the world sees this great nation now? Never.</p>
	<p>Can we stand by while legislation such as the Military Commissions Act dissolves our basic civil rights? Can we stand back and let our leaders listen to our phone calls, read our mail, investigate our library cards, or read our e-mails? I sincerely hope not.</p>
	<p>Our president has given himself the authority to deem anyone at any place an enemy combatant. With this label, one can be arrested, detained indefinitely in Gitmo (Guantanamo Bay, Cuba) or some other military prison without charges being levied against them, and tortured.</p>
	<p>Or, if they are lucky, they will be brought to trial.</p>
	<p>Just not allowed to see or confront the evidence against them under the guise of national security.</p>
	<p>It could be me for just writing this letter. It could be you for just reading it. Is this our country? Is this what the United States of America has turned into?</p>
	<p>No more freedom of speech, lest we anger the president.</p>
	<p>No more freedom of assembly, lest we anger the President.</p>
	<p>No more right to a trial by a jury of our peers, no more protection against self-incrimination, unless you can withstand the torture.</p>
	<p>We are at his mercy. We did the right thing during the November elections by taking steps to put an end to this lunacy. However, it can&#8217;t stop there. We need to take a step back, Democrat and Republican alike, to examine the horrendous damage that has been done and continues to be done, to us, and in our name.</p>
	<p>The Revolutionary War was fought by brave people for a noble cause. This country was founded by people who refused tyranny and oppression. The majority has spoken and now action is necessary.</p>
	<p>Stand up for what is right by putting an end to the war in Iraq, the war on the American people, and the instigation of more wars on innocent people. Are we Americans or not?</p>
	<p><strong>To the American troops</strong></p>
	<p>Please understand that you have our unwavering support. We know that you have your duty and take it very seriously. Rest assured, we will get you home. The majority of your fellow Americans are trying everything they can to end this war. Please know that our hearts break each day when we hear the news of another fallen soldier. Most of us do not support this war, BUT WE WILL ALWAYS SUPPORT YOU AND YOUR FAMILIES.</p>
	<p><strong>Mr President, are you listening?</strong></p>
	<p>I know that you do not care about my feelings, or that of any other American. Sir, I voted for you the first time. I am deeply ashamed of it and will forever have the blood of hundreds of thousands of people on my hands because of it. Almost every person in the world knows you are wrong.</p>
	<p>Almost every American citizen knows that you are wrong.</p>
	<p>You surround yourself with only people who agree with you, until they agree no more. Don&#8217;t you dare think that you stand for me or the vast majority of American people. You never have. We are not nearly as ignorant as you would like to believe we are. </em></p>

			<title>al Qaeda and the Taliban historical facts that Washington and its allies prefer to leave unmentioned</title>
			<link>http://nbgazette.com/index.php?entry=entry091206-102910</link>
			<description><![CDATA[	<p><img src="http://nbgazette.com/fp-content/images/US-guarded-opium-fields.jpg" alt="US-guarded-opium-fields.jpg" title="US-guarded-opium-fields.jpg"  class="center" width="430" height="305" /> </p>
	<p>The British and US Government calls the Taliban &#8220;terrorists&#8221; and &#8220;extremists&#8221;, but people in Kandahar associate it with security. Before the 2001 invasion, they say, they could walk the streets safely. Now even a simple outing to the local market is seen as a risk. I think life under the Taliban was very good,&#8221; said Maria Farah, a mother of five. &#8220;If we did not have a full stomach, we could at least get some food and go to sleep, and if we went out somewhere there were no problems. How about now? If we go out, we don&#8217;t know if we will arrive home or not. If there is an explosion and the Americans are passing, they will just open fire on everyone. The security problems are too much here.&#8221; </p>
	<p>When the Taliban implemented a ban on opium cultivation in early 2001, U.S. officials were most complimentary.  The Bush administration did more than praise the Taliban&#8217;s proclaimed ban of opium cultivation. In mid-May, 2001, Secretary of State Colin Powell announced a $43 million grant to Afghanistan in addition to the humanitarian aid the United States had long been providing to agencies assisting Afghan refugees.  $43 million was very serious money to Afghanistan&#8217;s theocratic masters.   Both the U.S. and UN reported that the Taliban had virtually wiped out the poppy crop in 2000-2001. </p>
	<p>The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) recently published a report revealing the latest findings on opium production in Afghanistan.  Since the US invaded and now occupy Afghanistan the UN reports that &#8220;opium cultivation has exploded to unprecedented levels.&#8221;  Afghanistan under US and NATO occupation has now become &#8220;the world&#8217;s biggest source of illicit drugs, surpassing the output of entire countries like Colombia (coca), Morocco (cannabis), and Myanmar (opium)&#8212;which have populations up to twenty times larger.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Washington&#8217;s support for the Taliban government came to an especially calamitous end in September 2001 when the Bush administration falsely accused the Taliban government of being linked to bin Laden&#8217;s terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon that killed some 3,000 people.  Even despite the US FBI finding no evidence to support Bush&#8217;s claim the US immediately attacked Afghanistan.  </p>
	<p>The FBI has officially declared that they have not even found any evidence to link bin Laden to the 9/11 attacks.  Their official MOST WANTED poster for Usama bin Laden is missing bin Laden being wanted for the 9/11 attacks.  Rex Tomb, Chief of Investigative Publicity for the FBI stated, &#8220;The reason why 9/11 is not mentioned on Usama Bin Laden&#8217;s Most Wanted page is because the FBI has no hard evidence connecting Bin Laden to 9/11.&#8221; </p>
	<p><em>Tomb continued, &#8220;Bin Laden has not been formally charged in connection to 9/11.  The FBI gathers evidence. Once evidence is gathered, it is turned over to the Department of Justice. The Department of Justice than decides whether it has enough evidence to present to a federal grand jury. In the case of the 1998 United States Embassies being bombed, Bin Laden has been formally indicted and charged by a grand jury. He has not been formally indicted and charged in connection with 9/11 because the FBI has no hard evidence connected Bin Laden to 9/11.&#8221; </em></p>
	<p>The propaganda used to justify the US-led occupation in Afghanistan typically leaves out any explanation of the origins of tendencies such as Al Qaeda, the Taliban movement and other Islamist groups resisting American and NATO troops. The spin merchants of the so-called &#8220;war on terror&#8221; would have people believe that the US and its allies are fighting religious fanatics who have no support in the country and are motivated by an inexplicable and irrational hatred of Western civilisation.</p>
	<p>On rare occasions, however, someone deviates from the script and draws attention to historical facts regarding present-day Islamic extremism that Washington and its allies prefer to leave unmentioned. One occasion was an interview on August 19 with Timemagazine with a very close American ally&#8212;Hamid Karzai, the man who was installed by the Bush administration as President of Afghanistan in 2002.</p>
	<p>Challenged by Time to answer how an enemy could be fought that &#8220;only has annihilation as its goal&#8221;, Karzai felt compelled to note the current situation was a by-product of US support in the 1980s for the creation of an Islamic fundamentalist army to wage a jihad or holy war against a pro-Soviet regime in Afghanistan and embroil the Soviet military itself in a decade-long guerilla conflict.</p>
	<p>Karzai told Time: &#8220;In order to fix terrorism at large, we need to remedy the wrongs of the past 30 years. Remedy means to undo. The world pushed us [Afghan jihadists] to fight the Soviets. And those who did walked away and left all the mess spread around. September 11 is a consequence of this &#8230;</p>
	<p>&#8220;In the years of fighting against the Soviets, radicalism was the main thing. Someone like me would be called half a Muslim because we were not radical. The more radical you were the more money you were given. Radicalism became not only an ideological tool against the Soviets but a way forward economically. The more radical you presented yourself, the more money the West gave you.&#8221;</p>
	<p>When Time protested that &#8220;it wasn&#8217;t just the West; it was Saudi Arabia, Pakistan&#8221;, who fomented Islamic extremism in Afghanistan, Karzai answered: &#8220;[T]hey were led by the West. The moderates were undermined. Afghan history and nationalism were called atheism. The more you spoke of radicalism, the better you were treated. That&#8217;s what we are paying for now.&#8221;</p>
	<p>Karzai is intimately familiar with the US backing for Afghan jihadists in the 1980s. He ran the office of Sebghatullah Mojadeddi, the leader of one of the Mujahedin groups, and undoubtedly liaised with CIA and other US officials. His bitterness over US policy stems from the fact that the Mojadeddi faction was regarded as &#8220;moderate&#8221; as compared to the &#8220;radicals&#8221; who received the lion&#8217;s share of financial support.</p>
	<p>From 1979 on, the US urged its allies such as Saudi Arabia and Pakistan to give military and financial aid to the Islamist-based Afghan insurgents as a means of undermining the Soviet Union. Combined with direct American funds, as much as $2 billion poured in each year&#8212;the CIA&#8217;s Afghan project was by far the largest covert operation of the entire Cold War.</p>
	<p>The largest beneficiary of US aid during the 1980s was Gulbuddin Hekmatyar&#8217;s Hezb-e-Islami, which is believed to have received as much as $600 million in US weapons and cash. Another figure the CIA worked with closely was Jalaluddin Haqqani, a guerilla commander who built a large military force in the ethnic Pashtun provinces of southern Afghanistan.</p>
	<p>At the same time, large sums of Saudi money were used to finance the camps to which thousands of Islamic militants came from every corner of the world between 1985 and 1992. One of the main figures involved in creating what came to be called &#8220;The Base&#8221;, or Al Qaeda in Arabic, was Osama bin Laden, the son of a Saudi Arabian billionaire. While the CIA denies ever working with the foreign fighters or so-called &#8220;Afghan Arabs&#8221;, its claims are not credible. Al Qaeda was an integral part of the overall anti-Soviet jihad in which the CIA collaborated closely with Pakistani and Saudi intelligence agencies.</p>
	<p><strong>US support of the Taliban </strong></p>
	<p>The proxy war that the Islamists fought for the United States from 1979 on was a contributing factor in the economic and political crisis that gripped the Soviet Union in the 1980s and led the Stalinist regime to restore capitalist relations and ultimately, dissolve the USSR itself.</p>
	<p>Afghanistan, however, was virtually destroyed in the process. Before the Soviet forces withdrew in 1988, their brutal counter-insurgency tactics had killed over one million Afghans, wounded as many as 1.5 million and forced five million people to flee to Pakistan.</p>
	<p>The US continued to back the Islamists in their campaign to overthrow the weak pro-Soviet government of Mohammad Najibullah, but increasingly relied on the Pakistani military to oversee the financing and arming of the Mujahedin. Washington&#8217;s focus had shifted. The crisis of the Soviet Union had led the US ruling elite to conclude that an opportunity existed to realise their long-held ambitions to dominate the oil-rich Middle East. The Iraqi regime of Saddam Hussein was provoked into invading Kuwait, creating the pretext for the deployment of more than half-a-million American troops into Saudi Arabia and, in March 1991, the first Gulf war against Iraq.</p>
	<p>In Afghanistan, the Pakistani-backed forces of Gulbuddin Hekmatyar conducted a murderous civil war for control of the country against other Mujahedin factions, whose warlord commanders were receiving support from rival regional powers such as India, Iran and Russia. Hekmatyar troops, still well-equipped with American-supplied weapons, carried out several wholesale bombardments of the capital Kabul, in which much of it was destroyed and thousands of people killed. In June 1993, he was installed as the prime minister, supplanting a government in which Karzai had briefly served as deputy foreign minister.</p>
	<p>The brutality of the civil war, the desperate social conditions facing the population and the plight of millions of refugees in Pakistan created the breeding ground for the Taliban&#8212;or &#8220;religious students&#8221;. Radical Islamic clerics led by Mullah Omar won support among embittered youth with promises that harsh Islamic law would suppress the criminal warlords and give a long-suffering people respite from war. Assembling a military force in the Pakistani refugee camps in 1994, the Taliban seized control of much of Afghanistan and finally took Kabul in 1996. When it first emerged, Karzai, like many Pashtuns, backed the Taliban as the means for undermining the power of their ethnic rivals.</p>
	<p>Pakistan, which had come to view Hekmatyar as an unreliable proxy, played a crucial role in organising the Taliban&#8217;s armed forces. Units of the Pakistani military are believed to have actively fought alongside them. Another factor in the Taliban successes was the decision by Jalaluddin Haqqani in 1995 to align his large ethnic Pashtun militia with them. Haqqani served as the Minister for Borders and Tribal Affairs in the Taliban government from 1996 until the US invasion in October 2001.</p>
	<p>The Taliban never controlled the entire country and was engaged in virtually constant warfare against the warlords who received backing from India, Russia and, to some extent, Iran. In large areas of southern Afghanistan, however, the population, while resenting the Taliban&#8217;s enforcement of harsh sharia law and bans on female education, enjoyed their first years of relative peace in over 17 years. The legacy is a degree of sympathy and even nostalgia for the Taliban, particularly when their rule is compared with the violence of the US occupation and the corruption of the drug barons and strongmen who dominate Karzai&#8217;s puppet government.</p>

	<p>The US government and major American oil conglomerates initially welcomed the advances by the Taliban. Rich new oil and gas fields were being developed in former Soviet Central Asian republics such as Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan and the potential existed for pipelines to be constructed through Afghanistan to refineries and ports in Pakistan and India. The US attacked and now occupy Afghanistan to build this pipeline and place it under the complete control of the US.  The US robbed the Taliban and the Afghan people of its financial future when they (the US) build the pipeline and control the flow of oil and natural gas through Afghanistan.
