And they'll probably get it, too. - M. R.

Or is he just playing "bump and dump"? - M. R.

Oh yes, I really believe giant oil companies don't have insurance or other preparations in place to deal with these interruptions. Yes, I really believe that. Yep. - M. R.

Yep, Sharon is pushing for a real war. - M. R.

Now you know WHY Cheney built that bunker under the Vice President's house. - M. R.

So, there were no weapons, certainly nothing that could be lofted at us all with just 45 minutes warning. So now the war will be justified on the claim that Saddam was THINKING about weapons of mass destruction. All world leaders THINK about weapons of mass destruction. That goes with the job. So will the US now invade every other nation on Earth because their leaders are just THINKING about weapons of mass destruction? - M. R.

Can you hold your breath for the next three years, soldier? - M. R.

These people pay the price because Americans lack the courage to throw the lying government out on its ass. Every one of those crippled kids looks at America with one message in their eyes, "You could have stopped this, but didn't". - M. R.

How did your office know to warn San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown not to fly on 9-11? - M. R.

Once again, Israel defies the United Nations * Resolution 251: " . . . 'deeply deplores' Israeli military parade in Jerusalem in defiance of Resolution 250".
* Resolution 252: " . . . 'declares invalid' Israel's acts to unify Jerusalem as Jewish capital".
* Resolution 267: " . . . 'censures' Israel for administrative acts to change the status of Jerusalem".
* Resolution 271: " . . . 'condemns' Israel's failure to obey UN resolutions on Jerusalem".
* Resolution 298: " . . . 'deplores' Israel's changing of the status of Jerusalem".
* Resolution 476: " . . . 'reiterates' that Israel's claim to Jerusalem are 'null and void'".
* Resolution 478: " . . . 'censures (Israel) in the strongest terms' for its claim to Jerusalem in its 'Basic Law'".
* Resolution 673: " . . . 'deplores' Israel's refusal to cooperate with the United Nations.

Bush invaded Iraq supposedly for defying the United Nations. In hindsight, it trurns out Saddam really had gotten rid of his weapons of mass destruction. Here we have Israel, in defiance of far more UN Resolutions than Iraq, trying to provoke open war while the US Government looks th eother way. And if Sharon succeeds in starting a war, guess whose kids will be sent to die in it. - M. R.

Doesn't look like the war is over, does it? - M. R.

Who gets to pick the questions? - M. R.

If it was an accident, then why did Israel attack USS Liberty with UNMARKED aircraft and torpedo boats, and why did the attackers jam the AMERICAN emergency frequencies? - M. R.

Given that methane decomposes readily (in the presence of carbon dioxide as one example), for there to be methane in the Martian atmosphere means something is currently replenishing it. Here on Earth the most prolific sources of methane are deep biosphere microbes, living in the earth's crust, which account for roughly 1/3 of the total planetary biomass. - M. R.

Only in office a few days and it was obvious where they were headed. - M. R.

What the US Supreme Court is hiding from you. - M. R.

Note that the judge did delay "preparations" until October, meaning that the actual case will not go to court until AFTER the elections. - M. R.

For you newcomers, you are probably wondering how the same US Supreme Court that recently ruled that you have no right to refuse if a police officer asks you your name even when you have done nothing wrong could possibly and unanimously) rule that a dead man has a right to privacy about just how he died (a 180 that undoubtedly whiplashed several of the Justices' necks, no doubt).

Well, just as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Earl Warran was willing to sign his name to a cover-up of the JFK assassination, it seems our current crop of robe-fillers has decided to go along with the cover-up of the murder of White House Deputy Council Vincent Foster. The official story, as long-time readers will recall, is that Vincent Foster, supposedly under stress and on a hot july day, inserted a gun into his mouth and pulled the trigger without leaving his fingerprints or blood on the gun, or powder granules or bullet fragments from that gun in his wounds. Yep, that's the story the Supremes just bought, hook, line, and sinker, and are demanding you accept as fact. - M. R.

Given the hosility the court showed to Allan Favish, the ruling does not surprise me. However, stop and think. The courts in the last few weeks have ruled that the police can some into your home without a warrant, and evidence they find can be used in a court of law despite the absence of a warrant, but a dead man has a right to privacy! More aqbout the murder of Vincent Foster is HERE - M. R.

It is time to start asking the question of why the US Government seems more concerned about the wishes of a foreign government than its own people. The US has commited the ultimate international sin; killing another nation. While no surprise to those of us who have been watching the war closely all along, (you know, those of us who knew there really weren't any weapons of mass destruction) Zelikow's remarks come as no surprise. A web search will show that Israel was cheering along the war all along AND providing the so-called "intelligence" about Saddam's weapons, "intelligence" which even Israel now admits was an "overestimate" (euphemism de jour for lying).

Parents of our slain war-dead, aware that the Iraq war was built on lies, can no longer even console themselves with the thought that their son or daughter died for their country, misguided as the country was. Your children were killed for for a foreign nation, offered up by the US Government as a blood sacrifice to Israel, traded for "campaign donations"

You think about that one for a while. - M. R.

The manner chose by Sharon to carry out the killing should make it clear that the real goal was to make peace impossible, paving the way for all out war. - M. R.

The war isn't the only thing the government is lying about. - M. R.

A very sublte bit of propaganda there. They don't actually say who the suspects were, yet manage to put the perception of blame onto Muslims. - M. R.

Second item down, from October 2003. - M. R.

"Dear Willie
Keep your ass OFF anything with wings tomorrow! I'm not kidding!

The US wants the probe tossed before the media starts paying attention to the fact that while the FBI was smearing Dr. Hatfill, they pointedly ignored a suspect actually caught entering the anthrax storage area without proper authorization. And wait until you read what the government lawyers are using as an excuse! - M. R.

Which is awkward because Israel just admitted that they "overestimated" Iraq's threat. - M. R.

It's like trying to pick which fertilizer you want dumped on your head. - M. R.

These people didn't suffer from "miscommunication". - M. R.

And this will benefit mankind because... - M. R.

Figures. - M. R.

Hey, it's not like they are spending their OWN money! - M. R.

Kerry once more shows is is just another Sharon hatchet man headed for the White House. - M. R.

You know, I don't carry ID with me when I go for a walk. And I am not going to start now. - M. R.

Israel admits "overestimating" Iraq's threat, but claims this had no effect on the US decision to invade. No effect at all. Really. - M. R.

Sharon is hoping to kick off a war to get out of his corruption scandal. That's why he whacked an old man in a wheelchair in the most bloody way possible. - M. R.

"Really, it's not my fault. I would LOVE to tell you everything I know, but that pesky whachamacalit, umm, 'National Security', yeah, that's it. gets in the way."

Seriously, what Rice fears most is someone asking how she knew to warn San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown not to fly on 9-11, yet did not warn the nation. - M. R.

If the government can suspend your rights at will, then you never really had rights, only indulgences given by the master to the well-behaved slaves. - M. R.

Senate majority leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.), minority leader Tom Daschle (D-S.D.) and Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) ALL take money from pro-Israeli lobbyists! - M. R.

The scapegoat hath been designated. - M. R.

Your taxes pay for the police. The contract is that the police are there to find and arrest criminals, direct traffic, and to deter crimes like rape, robbery, murder and so forth. Nobody signs their tax checks thinking, "Boy, I hope the police use this money to spy on kids as opposed to the war as I am." The police are already saying they do not have enough resources to deal with all the crime they see. Therefore, the police are INTENTIONALLY ignoring criminals in order to be able to carry out this spyingon the people. - M. R.

Sharon's corruption case grows bigger ... OHMYGAWDLOOKATTHETERRORISTBOMB!!!! - M. R.

I worked with him briefly many years ago, and all the nice things said about him are true. He was a real gentleman, and as charming off the camera as on. - M. R.

Sharon is going to try to distract from his impending indictment by blowing up another old man. - M. R.

... to hand Bush his next set of orders. Several sources have reported that the White House has told Sharon that they wil not support his disengagement plan either politically or financially. The costs are too high in an election year. Sharon may be coming over here to remind Bush just WHY he shouldn't be so quick to refuse. - M. R.

Another frame-up collapses. - M. R.

Does the game program "Hearts" keeping opening up on your computer? - M. R.

You have to admit, in hindsight it does seem a little silly. - M. R.

Think we live in a real democracy? Think again. - M. R.

This video proves beyond all doubt that 9-11 was staged with the connivance of the administration. Think of how you would react if you were the President and someone whispered to you that the nation was under attack. Wouldn't you be surprised? Wouldn't you react? Wouldn't you give orders to activate whatever contigency plans were in place? Wouldn't you politely excuse yourself from reading about goats and GO DO YOUR JOB?

None of the things we would normally expect a President to do in the case of a surprise attack happened. QED, the attack did not surprise Bush. - M. R.

It is a far more common political tactic than you might think. - M. R.

There is something that most Americans, having grown up under a government based on daception, have forgotten. When someone is being truthful with you, there is never anything that needs to be hidden, no evasions, no "private only" testimony. Everything is on the table ready for examination without (as the federal oath states it) purpose of evasion or concealment.

Every single dodge carried out by the White House regarding 9-11, or the wars, or the economy, is proof that something is being hidden from you, and it is not even important what that something is. A government that feels it must hide itself from the people is a government that is no longer of the people, by the people, or for the people. Certainly it is not a government you should be giving half your wealth to. - M. R.

"You can't just whack them without reason, George. At least take the time to make up some lies about weapons of mass destruction or something, at least try to LOOK like you have a justification to kill all those people." - M. R.

You do not have to read any further. "still would not testify publicly before the panel". This latest meeting is just damage control. Rice dares not allow herself to be questioned in public, lest someone ask her how hew office was able to warn Willie Brown not to fly on 9-11. - M. R.

Like, we are supposed to be surprised? - M. R.

Who actually does have WMDs? What nation has defied the UN even more than Saddam? What nation has repeatedly tried to trick its "friend" into attacking its enemies? - M. R.

Okay, there are no WMDs, and Saddam is already in jail, so you guys gotta come up with some reason the suckers, I mean the taxpayers, will let us stay in Iraq stealing the ragheads' oil. - M. R.

Does anyone think that the US would have vetoed the resolution unless Israel ordered it? - M. R.

Rummy dodges and weaves, trying to claim that stopping a domestic airline headed for the WTC was really a job for "domestic law enforcement". - M. R.

Bush acts like a man who already knows the November election is fixed. - M. R.

"He duped us. Really. No kidding. We were fooled. We had no IDEA at all. Really. Honest." - M. R.

The finest government money can buy. - M. R.

No, the US is LYING, and the proof is a simple one. Were these simply errors, there would be as many underestimates as overestimates. But the US claims are consistantly overblown, proving an intentional bias is at work. - M. R.

Do you get it yet? "Al Qaeda" was CREATED BY GOVERNMENT INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES to drive you into a war on the Arabs and Arab oil you otherwise would have refused. You have been snookered, conned, flim-flammed, hoaxed, scammed, deceived, fooled, swindled... - M. R.

Note the "private" so that nobody can ask Rice how she knew to warn Willie Brown not to fly on 9-11. - M. R.

Israel lies about Iraq Weapons. "By way of deception..." - M. R.

That the same NTSB caught in court rigging their own tests and lying about the results on TWA 800? This the same NTSB claimed a noseless 747 with a wingbox supposedly shattered by a fuel explosion could still fly and climd thousands of feet? This the same NTSB that publicly accused witnesses who saw a missile hit TWA 800 of being drunkards? That NTSB? - M. R.

Reading Negroponte's words, it sounds like the US tried to put the blame for the killing on Yassin himself. - M. R.

Imagine my shock. - M. R.

It did seem rather out-of-character that the child was still alive, given the IDF's penchant for shooting anything that looks at all dangerous (and more than a few things that do not). - M. R.

Yassin went to the same mosque every morning. Had Israel wanted him dead, a sniper could have done it. The particular method chosen, of attacking with missiles and killing bystanders, was an act of terror, intending to provoke the Arab world. - M. R.

It appears that these divers, operating on tourist visas, were actually on some kind ofmilitary operation, angering the Mexican government which does not allow such operations to be conducted by foreign governments on their soil. - M. R.

Remember the days when spies caught inside our country were sent to jail, not treated with kid gloves and handed back to the foreign nation that sent them to spy on us? - M. R.

Bush and Blair seem to have forgotten that a head of state is elected in order to do what the PEOPLE WHO ELECTED HIM want. - M. R.

It should be obvious by now that Clarke is the "limited hangout" guy, pretending to be a whistleblower saying that Bush "missed" Al Qaeda", while really working with Bush to conceal a far greater crime, that 9-11 was a manufactured and staged terror event to be framed on Arabs to kick off a war of conquest. Seen Clarke get on Condi Rice's case for not testifying? He won't. He knows that Rice warned Willie Brown not to fly on 9-11 and can never be allowed to testify publicly for fear of that one issue. - M. R.

I volunteer. - M. R.

Clarke still points to Al Qaeda, ignoring the question of why Bush sat there reading about goats, totally UNsurprised, after being told that a second plane had hit the WTC. - M. R.

Either you have freedom of speech, or you do not.

Time to choose. - M. R.

"Yeah, we break you financially and then you'll let us do whatever we want, right?" - M. R.

But if Sharon doesn't WANT a truce, offering him one is an engraved invitation to a missile strike, wheelchair or no. - M. R.

You didn't really think they were actually going to rebuild Iraq w
