Globalization and the plan for NWO / Technology / Re: Firefox Keeps Crashing!

From
your description, it seems to me that the new version of Firefox for
Windows is quite buggy - which is not an uncommon thing to happen
whenever a new version of a program is released[1] - so, while they
don't fix the bugs, perhaps it's a good idea to go back to an older
version. (Maybe not too old, since the older ones should not be
supported[2] in terms of security.) Searching the web, I can
find several sites from where you can download old versions of Firefox,
including an ftp server of Mozilla, which should be the most secure
option: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/And,
since they say in Firefox 3.6's release notes[3] that the bookmarks and
such are not removed when you uninstall Firefox, you can then uninstall
it, install again an older version of it, and try upgrading again when
they release a new 3.6.x version. You might also want try other browsers such as "Opera" or "Google Chrome" and see if you like them better than Firefox. --- 1. http://forum.prisonplanet.com/index.php?topic=1438692. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html3. http://www.mozilla-europe.org/en/firefox/3.6/releasenotes/P.S.

understand if you don't know what you're doing...

For
some reason, for old pages of prisonplanet.com that describe editions
of "The Alex Jones Show", the comments don't show up anymore. All we
get now is a message "Comments are closed." But I can still access the old version of the page I send people to in my first post through a Google cache. And
before that cache also shows only the more recent version of the page,
I'll leave here the comments, as they used to appear in the old
version, for everyone who wants to to be able to read them. http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cache:SpYHnCqe0JgJ:www.prisonplanet.com/the-alex-jones-show-l-i-v-e-september-11th-with-william-engdahl-ralph-nader.html4 Responses to “The Alex Jones Show – L I V E – September 11th With William Engdahl & Ralph Nader”portuguese anarchist Says:September 16th, 2008 at 6:59 am\ABRalph
Nader, a perennial "independent" presidential candidate, "much admired
for his anti-establishment stance," is financed by the Rockefeller
network in his attempt to destroy the free enterprise system. Principal
Nader financiers are the Ford Foundation and the Field Foundation, both
CFR-interlocked. According to a Business Week article reprinted in the

Danny Says:September 18th, 2008 at 11:18 pmWow
thanks for that info Portuguese. It never even occurred to me. I wonder
if he is still working for those elements or inadvertently it was just
something he had to do career wise. portuguese anarchist Says:September 20th, 2008 at 12:08 pmTo Danny and all:
I finally got a chance to hear the interview today.
His statements about government crack down on corporations appear to confirm the quote I made from Estulin.
I
seriously doubt he has become some sort of dissident on "them" and been
able to maintain a high-profile with the help of the controlled media
and not been a victim of character assassination or reprisals.
Calling
for a new 9/11 investigation doesn’t necessarily mean he wants a *real*
investigation or that, with all the easily available evidence, he is
admitting he knows it was an inside job and might mean he just wants
another more elaborated whitewash to try to silence the critics of the
previous one. Some of whom, notice, he says make "outlandish"
questions. Is there ever going to be such a new investigation? Should
you spend your time and concentrate your efforts on that? If there’s a
new investigation, who’s going to make it? The Government? The same
organization that was responsible for the attacks? Like Alex says about
Congress, the people in key positions have all already been bought and
paid for! All the way up to the Supreme Court that gave George W. Bush
the election. Would the investigation instead be made by one of "their"
groups, foundations or controlled NGOs? Who would convict the
government? The same judicial system that killed Stanley Hilton’s
lawsuit?
Two more things you should notice in the interview:
Number
one: He wants a "leading" opponent of the 9/11 Commission Report to
debate it on TV. He wants a single person in a single debate to appear
as a representation of the 9/11 Truth (grassroots) Movement. Would he
be the one choosing the person in question? What more easy way to
divert, misrepresent and distort the 9/11 Truth Movement’s message than
to put one of "them" on that side of the debate. A debate at the
National (controlled) Press Club? Under which rules would that debate
take place and about what specific topics would it be about?
Number
two: He calls the Gulf of Tonkin and the 1898 incidents "provocations"
not "false flag operations". While calling for your votes, he
conveniently uses a not very clear rhetoric making it appear he’s on
your side. He says "yes" after Alex asks him if "governments do stage
events and blame it on their enemies", appearing to be on his side, and
then slightly clarifies his position by calling them "provocations".
Almost surely, if someone asks him to be more clear about this, he will
say he means the government provoked (teased) their enemies to the
point that they ended up attacking his ships, so that the government
would have a pretext to counter-attack and not what Alex is talking
about.
You have to be very aware of people who present
themselves as your supporters and then try to either become leading
critical "gatekeepers" that only point out to petty wrongdoings by the
government and hide the (much more important and revealing) rest and
people that lead you into traps, false solutions, or try to make you
adopt counter-productive or time-wasting ineffective forms of struggle.
Always think and decide for yourselves.
Like someone who was part of a fake 9/11 investigation team said to me some years ago:
"The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves." — Vladimir I. Lenin
*****
"any
discussion between left and right, while essential to promote change,
is never allowed to develop into a discussion along the lines of
Jeffersonian democracy, i.e., the best government is least government.
The discussion and the funding is always towards more state power, use
of state power and away from individual rights. So it doesn’t matter
from the viewpoint of The Order whether it is termed left, right,
Democratic, Republican, secular or religious – so long as the
discussion is kept within the framework of the State and the power of
the State. "This is the common feature between the seemingly
dissimilar positions taken by members – they have a higher common
objective in which clash of ideas is essential. So long as rights of
the individual are not introduced into the discussion the clash of
ideas generates the conflict necessary for change. "As the objective
is also global control an emphasis is placed on global thinking, i.e.,
internationalism. This is done through world organizations and world
law." — Antony C. Sutton, "America’s Secret Establishment"
"As
a rhetorical technique, good cop, bad cop may refer to the joint effort
to gain compliance from a community over an issue that is unpopular.
The bad cop, who may be a politician, first may make statements
regarding an issue that are considered extremely unpopular. The good
cop then poses a moderate, compromising solution that seems preferable." — http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-good-cop-bad-cop.htm portuguese anarchist Says:September 30th, 2008 at 10:04 amFor
those of you who might still come here, just to add something I didn’t
say in the previous post, when I talk about a possible debate organized
or promoted by Nader, I’m assuming that there’s ever going to be such a
debate. But given the usual difference between what politicians say
they’re going to do and what they actually do, I strongly suspect he’s
just saying that in order to get the people who question 9/11 to vote
for him.

Globalization and the plan for NWO / Technology / Law Enforcement Appliance Subverts SSL
|
on: 28 March 2010, 10:00
|
http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2010/03/packet-forensics/Law Enforcement Appliance Subverts SSLBy Ryan Singel March 24, 2010 | 1:55 pm | Categories: Surveillance, ThreatsThat
little lock on your browser window indicating you are communicating
securely with your bank or e-mail account may not always mean what you
think its means. Normally when a user visits a secure website,
such as B*nk of America, Gmail, PayPal or eBay, the browser examines
the website’s certificate to verify its authenticity. At a
recent wiretapping convention, however, security researcher Chris
Soghoian discovered that a small company was marketing internet spying
boxes to the feds. The boxes were designed to intercept those
communications — without breaking the encryption — by using forged
security certificates, instead of the real ones that websites use to
verify secure connections. To use the appliance, the government would
need to acquire a forged certificate from any one of more than 100
trusted Certificate Authorities. The attack is a classic
man-in-the-middle attack, where Alice thinks she is talking directly to
Bob, but instead Mallory found a way to get in the middle and pass the
messages back and forth without Alice or Bob knowing she was there. The
existence of a marketed product indicates the vulnerability is likely
being exploited by more than just information-hungry governments,
according to leading encryption expert Matt Blaze[1], a computer
science professor at University of Pennsylvania. “If the company
is selling this to law enforcement and the intelligence community, it
is not that large a leap to conclude that other, more malicious people
have worked out the details of how to exploit this,” Blaze said. The
company in question is known as Packet Forensics, which advertised its
new man-in-the-middle capabilities in a brochure handed out at the
Intelligent Support Systems (ISS) conference[2], a Washington, D.C.,
wiretapping convention that typically bans the press. Soghoian attended
the convention, notoriously capturing a Sprint manager bragging[3]
about the huge volumes of surveillance requests it processes for the
government. According to the flyer: “Users have the ability to
import a copy of any legitimate key they obtain (potentially by court
order) or they can generate ‘look-alike’ keys designed to give the
subject a false sense of confidence in its authenticity.” The product
is recommended to government investigators, saying “IP communication
dictates the need to examine encrypted traffic at will.” And, “Your
investigative staff will collect its best evidence while users are
lulled into a false sense of security afforded by web, e-mail or VOIP
encryption.” Packet Forensics doesn’t advertise the product on
its website, and when contacted by Wired.com, asked how we found out
about it. Company spokesman Ray Saulino initially denied the product
performed as advertised, or that anyone used it. But in a follow-up
call the next day, Saulino changed his stance. “The technology
we are using in our products has been generally discussed in internet
forums and there is nothing special or unique about it,” Saulino said.
“Our target community is the law enforcement community.” Blaze
described the vulnerability as an exploitation of the architecture of
how SSL is used to encrypt web traffic, rather than an attack on the
encryption itself. SSL, which is known to many as HTTPS, enables
browsers to talk to servers using high-grade encryption, so that no one
between the browser and a company’s server can eavesdrop on the data.
Normal HTTP traffic can be read by anyone in between — your ISP, a
wiretap at your ISP, or in the case of an unencrypted Wi-Fi connection,
by anyone using a simple packet-sniffing tool. In addition to
encrypting the traffic, SSL authenticates that your browser is talking
to the website you think it is. To that end, browser makers trust a
large number of Certificate Authorities — companies that promise to
check a website operator’s credentials and ownership before issuing a
certificate. A basic certificate costs less than $50 today, and it sits
on a website’s server, guaranteeing that the BankofAmerica.com website
is actually owned by B*nk of America. Browser makers have accredited
more than 100 Certificate Authorities from around the world, so any
certificate issued by any one of those companies is accepted as valid. To
use the Packet Forensics box, a law enforcement or intelligence agency
would have to install it inside an ISP, and persuade one of the
Certificate Authorities — using money, blackmail or legal process — to
issue a fake certificate for the targeted website. Then they could
capture your username and password, and be able to see whatever
transactions you make online. Technologists at the Electronic
Frontier Foundation, who are working on a proposal to fix this whole
problem, say hackers can use similar techniques to steal your money or
your passwords. In that case, attackers are more likely to trick a
Certificate Authority into issuing a certificate, a point driven home
last year when two security researchers demonstrated how they could get
certificates for any domain on the internet simply by using a special
character in a domain name[4]. “It is not hard to do these
attacks,” said Seth Schoen, an EFF staff technologist. “There is
software that is being published for free among security enthusiasts
and underground that automate this.” China, which is known for
spying on dissidents and Tibetan activists, could use such an attack to
go after users of supposedly secure services, including some Virtual
Private Networks, which are commonly used to tunnel past China’s
firewall censorship. All they’d need to do is convince a Certificate
Authority to issue a fake certificate. When Mozilla added a Chinese
company, China Internet Network Information Center, as a trusted
Certificate Authority in Firefox this year, it set off a firestorm of
debate[5], sparked by concerns that the Chinese government could
convince the company to issue fake certificates to aid government
surveillance. In all, Mozilla’s Firefox has its own list of 144
root authorities. Other browsers rely on a list supplied by the
operating system manufacturers, which comes to 264 for Microsoft and
166 for Apple. Those root authorities can also certify secondary
authorities, who can certify still more — all of which are equally
trusted by the browser. The list of trusted root authorities
includes the United Arab Emirates-based Etilisat, a company that was
caught last summer secretly uploading spyware onto 100,000 customers’
BlackBerries[6]. Soghoian says fake certificates would be a
perfect mechanism for countries hoping to steal intellectual property
from visiting business travelers. The researcher published a paper on
the risks[7] (.pdf) Wednesday, and promises he will soon release a
Firefox add-on to notify users when a site’s certificate is issued from
an authority in a different country than the last certificate the
user’s browser accepted from the site. EFF’s Schoen, along with
fellow staff technologist Peter Eckersley and security expert Chris
Palmer, want to take the solution further, using information from
around the net so browsers can eventually tell a user with certainty
when they are being attacked by someone using a fake certificate.
Currently, browsers warn users when they encounter a certificate that
doesn’t belong to a site, but many people simply click through the
multiple warnings. “The basic point is that in the status quo
there is no double check and no accountability,” Schoen said. “So if
Certificate Authorities are doing things that they shouldn’t, no one
would know, no one would observe it. We think at the very least there
needs to be a double check.” EFF suggests a regime that relies
on a second level of independent notaries to certify each certificate,
or an automated mechanism to use anonymous Tor exit nodes to make sure
the same certificate is being served from various locations on the
internet — in case a user’s local ISP has been compromised, either by a
criminal or a government agency using something like Packet Forensics’
appliance. One of the most interesting questions raised by
Packet Forensics’ product is how often do governments use such
technology and do Certificate Authorities comply? Christine Jones, the
general counsel for Go Daddy — one of the net’s largest issuers of SSL
certificates — says her company has never gotten such a request from a
government in her eight years at the company. “I’ve read
studies and heard speeches in academic circles that theorize that
concept, but we never would issue a ‘fake’ SSL certificate,” Jones
said, arguing that would violate the SSL auditing standards and put
them at risk of losing their certification. “Theoretically it would
work, but the thing is we get requests from law enforcement every day,
and in entire time we have been doing this, we have never had a single
instance where law enforcement asked us to do something inappropriate.” VeriSign, the net’s largest Certiicate Authority, echoes GoDaddy. “Verisign has never issued a fake SSL certificate, and to do so would be against our policies,” said vice president Tim Callan. Matt
Blaze notes that domestic law enforcement can get many records, such as
a person’s Amazon purchases, with a simple subpoena, while getting a
fake SSL certificate would certainly involve a much higher burden of
proof and technical hassles for the same data. Intelligence
agencies would find fake certificates more useful, he adds. If the NSA
got a fake certificate for Gmail — which now uses SSL as the default
for e-mail sessions in their entirety (not just their logins) — they
could install one of Packet Forensics’ boxes surreptitiously at an ISP
in, for example, Afghanistan, in order to read all the customer’s Gmail
messages. Such an attack, though, could be detected with a little
digging, and the NSA would never know if they’d been found out. Despite the vulnerabilities, experts are pushing more sites to join Gmail in wrapping their entire sessions in SSL. “I still lock my doors even though I know how to pick the lock,” Blaze said. Update 15:55 Pacific: The story was updated with comment from Verisign.

My
ISP used to limit my international traffic also, in my case to 2 GB a
month when I started using their services, and because of that, I could
barely watch any YouTube videos, given my intensive use of the Internet. They
have, nonetheless, on the user account page, an applet that shows how
many GBs I've used already, where I would go to check how close I was
to reaching the limit I had or how many additional MBs I had used. I guess you could demand that they provide you some sort of similar service.

***THE MAIN BOARDS - Welcome to the Prison Planet Forum*** / Wikileaks / ATTENTION: Wikileaks may be controlled oposition, be on guard!
|
on: 27 March 2010, 22:57
|
I've
written here before a warning[1], a few months after I registered,
thinking that it would somehow reach Alex Jones, but I've seen that it
may have not, at least not in due time[2]. I initially thought that
posting something on this forum would be a good way for any pertinent
or important information to reach Alex Jones via some initial moderator
that founded the forum or such, but I now realize that there may be
just too many posts being made, and too many things going on, in order
for any important information to be easily channelled from here to
Alex's staff or others close enough to him. Anyway, it's too
expensive for me to make a transatlantic phone call to "The Alex Jones
Show", and be on hold and all that, so, if someone who agrees that
there are reasons to be worried about this, that lives in Texas or
close enough to Austin (in order not to spend too much money), could
call "The Alex Jones Show" about this, to spread the word to a large
audience, it would great, and I would be very much appreciated.
Otherwise, I guess the warning will just have to be limited to anyone
who reads this post. (Sending an e-mail, I think, is out of the
question, since I can easily deduce that Alex's and his staff's
accounts must be daily bombarded with information. So I seriously doubt
that they read everything that is sent to them...) I'm writing to warn any person who might be thinking about one day possibly leaking anything to WikiLeaks to think very carefully about it. You might want to think twice about whom you decide to leak information you have to. For two reasons. The
first one, (and if I'm saying anything wrong, someone who knows more
about the subject please correct me) from the limited knowledge of
computers I have, the security they offer is a joke. All that
WikiLeaks offers as protection is a simple "https" connection. The
security of which has already been shown to be very weak[3]. Even if
this type of connection was secure, which I stress again that is not,
and if you're connecting to their website from your home, I'm sure the
surveillance agencies can easily know who is connecting, or has
connected, to the site and from there reduce by a lot the list of
possible suspects for any leak. Let alone even, if you have Windows or
some untrustworthy closed-source program installed on your computer,
possibly, get inside[4] your computer itself and from there verify
anything to confirm their suspicion. (Uploading something from an
Internet caf\E9 or such, I guess, would, depending on the circumstances,
increase your chances of not getting caught, but it would surely be no
guarantee whatsoever...) Second, and this is the most important
reason I wanted to call your attention for, if you live in the Western
World, you should notice that WikiLeaks has, what I would call, a very
suspicious relationship with media outlets and foundations that are
known, among any person sufficiently informed about the powers-that-be,
to be controlled by the same interests responsible for all the
corruption, dirty tricks and worse, you see happening, and that the
information you have most likely denounces. Or, to be more
explicit, since the people who read posts made on this forum know what
I'm talking about, as I called the attention for in a post[5] of mine
yesterday, WikiLeaks is supported and praised by NWO-controlled media
outlets and foundations, which makes everything look very suspicious,
to say the least. (At least from my point-of-view, it does...) Think
very carefully about what you might want to do and, if you someday do
have important information you want to leak, try to decide wisely about
whom you want to leak that information to. If this, not very
open and transparent organization, that most of us only know by name,
and that admits to not publish everything they are sent, is somehow
controlled, you might not get a second chance to leak that information
you have to anyone else... I personally cannot think of a better way to stop, or at least control, information leaks than to come up with a site like this. Call me paranoid, if you want to. I'm just telling people to think and decide for themselves what to do. Check out the website for yourselves - http://wikileaks.org/
- and read the quotes from, and the thank you note to, the
NWO-controlled press and institutions. If this site was a danger to the
establishment, do you think that the establishment-controlled press
would be promoting it and actively supporting it? --- 1. http://forum.prisonplanet.com/index.php?topic=601892.

That
Pentagon paper or whatever, that was leaked, denouncing the worry the
DoD has about WikiLeaks, reminds me a lot of Donald Rumsfeld's comments
on Al-Jazeera during the invasion of Iraq... What a great way to
promote something as your adversary... Even if they would put
something like that on paper, it would be a memorandum to be only
circulated among the higher echelons of the DoD. And do you think that
the people who manage to get to the top of such an organization (that,
among other things, kills their own citizens through false flag
operations) would be people of good character, guided by the highest
standards of integrity, that would feel morally obliged to leak such a
paper? Do you think they would ever promote such kind of people all
the way up to the top, making it possible for something like this to
ever happen?

Hey
Guns, I've been thinking of getting a SW Radio as well. Is there
a certain brand you suggest? Or a website with good deals?
I'd like to get a handheld one...
The Infowars Store sells shortwave radios ( http://infowars-shop.stores.yahoo.net/shra.html). But,
from your nickname, I guess that, like me, you're not in the US, so you
can't buy one from there. But what you can do is to check out the
models they have and look for a place where they sell them in the UK.
(If it's to listen to "The Alex Jones Show" that we want, I guess we
can trust Alex's or his crew's judgement on this.) I've already
started my quest for an old shortwave radio that might be around. And
if I can't find a good working one, I'll look for some online or local
shop that sells a model sold at the Infowars Store. I recommend everyone to get one as well. It's a good idea to have a backup in case something does happen to the Internet.

Multimedia and other resources / Audio / Re: Psychopathy

on: 25 February 2010, 16:35

Thank you very much for the links, matrixcutter. This is a subject I'm most interested in. I
suspect this "Superclass" members of being a mixture of sociopaths and
psychopaths, and I will listen to what a well-informed person like Alan
Watt, that has been researching the elite for years, has to say to,
hopefully, help me clarify that. As for the "strong genetic
component" believed to be in the origin of psychopathy, here goes a
reference to a study I remember reading about a couple of years ago: http://www.dancewithshadows.com/society/dictatorship-genes.aspTHE DICTATORSHIP GENE
You may have dictatorship in your genes
The AVPR1a gene is linked to ruthlessness in people.
14 April, 2008: Yet another “behavioural disorder” has been blamed on the genes.
According
to researchers at Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Israel, the ruthless
behaviour of Hitler, Napoleon, Mussolini, Saddam Hussein, and Robert
Mugabe may be attributed partly to their genes.
The
researchers claim that they have discovered that a gene called AVPR1a
is linked with ruthlessness, and that it may explain “the
money-grabbing tendencies of those with a Machiavellian streak.”
The
findings have been published in Genes, Brain and Behavior, a scientific
journal published by the International Behavioural and Neural Genetics
Society in collaboration with Blackwell Publishing.
Richard
Ebstein, lead researcher, wrote in Genes, Brain and Behavior that they
conducted an economic exercise called the ‘Dictator Game’ with over 200
student volunteers.
The exercise, he continued, “allowed the
participants to behave selflessly, or like money-grabbing dictators
like former Zaire President Mobutu who filled in his pockets at the
cost of its citizens. While the exact mechanism by which the gene
influences behaviour was unknown, one could say that one some people
just did not believe in the old adage that ‘it is better to give than
to receive.”
Ebstein suggested that the “reward centres” in
their brains might derive less pleasure from altruistic acts, leading
money-grabbers to behave more selfishly.
In the study, the
researchers exclusively focused on the called gene called AVPR1 as it
is known to produce receptors in the brain that detect vasopressin, a
hormone involved in altruism and “pro-social” behaviour. The
researchers said they “wondered if differences in expression of this
receptor in the human brain might make different people more or less
likely to behave generously.”
The researchers at Hebrew
University in Jerusalem, during the study, tested DNA samples from the
participants before asking them to play the dictator game. The students
were divided into two groups: ‘dictators’ and ‘receivers’ (called ‘A’
and ‘B’ to the participants).
Each ‘dictator’ was given 50
shekels (about US $14), and were told that they were free to share as
much or as little of this with a receiver, whom they would never have
to meet. The fortunes of the ‘receiver’ thus depended totally on the
generosity of the ‘dictator.”
It was noticed that nearly 18% of
the ‘dictators’ kept all of the money, about one-third split the money
down the middle, and a generous 6% gave it all away.
According
to Richard Ebstein, “while no link was found for this tendency to be
gender-specific, it was dependent on the length of the AVPR1s gene, as
people having the shorter version of this gene were more likely to
behave selfishly. The vasopressin receptors in the brains of people
with short AVPR1a might be distributed in such a way that it makes them
less likely to feel rewarded by the act of giving.”
Based on the observations, Ebstein reached the conclusion that “the dictatorial tendencies certainly had a genetic component.”
ANI
quoted Nicholas Bardsley at the University of Southampton, the United
Kingdom, who studied the ‘Dictator Game,’ as saying that that
“researchers should be careful while using such games as a tool for
arriving at results regarding human generosity.”

Alex: "Let's go to Don, in Wisconsin. Don, you're on the air."
Don: "Hey,
Alex, I wanna talk about conditioning and brainwashing in movies for a
little bit and specifically, like Stanley Kubrick, I want to get your
opinion, like whether he was an insider or he was trying to expose the
situation..."
Alex: "He was a top insider. And he refused, this was confirmed even in Variety ,
he refused to cut 28(?) minutes... It was 28 minutes if memory
serves... I know it was over 20 (...) Kubrick said this movie was gonna
show you what's really going on. He had final cut, and he had an
ironclad contract, he had final cut on the film where he couldn't be
controlled, and he refused to cut it. Then the distributor threatened
to not distribute it, and then he died mysteriously and they cut the
20-plus minutes. So yes, Kubrick, total hi-level insider, total
Illuminist. Same thing with Arthur C. Clarke. I mean, you don't get any
more hi-powered than this people. I believe they killed him deader than
a hammer."--- From the first hour of the November 17th 2009 edition of "The Alex Jones Show" ( http://www.archive.org/details/AlexJonesRadioShow-November172009)

9/11/2001 Attacks Were An Inside Job / 9/11 Material & Research / Re: Former Malaysian Pm "911 was staged"

http://www.heraldmalaysia.com/news/storydetails.php/Dr-M-says-9-11-attacks-staged-to-hit-Muslim-world/3867-1-1Dr M says 9/11 attacks staged to hit Muslim worldPublished On January 20, 2010 By Asrul Hadi Abdullah SaniKUALA LUMPUR:
Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad today claimed the 9/11 attacks in the United
States, that killed nearly 3,000, was staged as an excuse to “mount
attacks on the Muslim world”, saying killing as an excuse for war is
not new to the US. The former prime minister also argued that
Israel was created to solve the “Jewish problem” in Europe, saying the
Holocaust had failed as a final solution against the community. “In
September 2001, the World Trade Centre was attacked allegedly by
terrorists. I am not sure now that Muslim terrorists carried out these
attacks. There is strong evidence that the attacks were staged. If they
can make Avatar, they can make anything,” said Dr Mahathir during his
speech at the General Conference for the Support of Al-Quds here.
Al-Quds is the Arabic name for Jerusalem. “Killing innocent
people to provide an excuse for war is not new to the US. But whether
the real or staged 9/11 attacks have served the United States and
Western countries well. They have an excuse to mount attacks on the
Muslim world,” he added. Dr Mahathir also argued the creation of the Jewish state was decided after Europeans failed to massacre the community. “The
Jews had always been a problem in European countries. They had to be
confined to ghettoes and periodically massacred. But still they
remained, they thrived and they held whole governments to ransom. “Even
after their massacre by the Nazis of Germany, they survived to continue
to be a source of even greater problems for the world. The Holocaust
failed as a final solution,” said the outspoken Malaysian leader who
was noted for his anti-Western and anti-Zionist stand while in power
for 22 years, until October 2003. Dr Mahathir added that it was easier for the European powers to set up a Jewish state in Palestine. “Creating
a state for them was thought to be a better solution. It could be if
some European territory had been allocated to make a permanent ghetto
for the Jews. But of course if this was done then the affected European
state would rise in arms and kill all the Jews the way they had been
doing before. So the debate was about creating an Israeli state in
Uganda, Africa, or somewhere in Latin America or Palestine of course. “It
was so easy to decide on Palestine, a British mandated territory.
Restrictions on the disposal of mandated land could be ignored. This is
nothing new — reneging on solemnly given undertaking is endemic with
Europeans,” he said. Dr Mahathir also accused democratic countries for being “hypocritical” and pointed out that the world is “partially civilised.” “We
live in a world that is only partially civilised. I say this because we
still believe that the way to resolve conflicts between nations is to
kill people in what is called war. The winner is the side which
succeeds in killing the most number of people. Yet we vehemently
declare that killing people is murder, a terrible crime worthy of the
most severe punishment. “We are being openly hypocritical. Mass killing is glorious but killing one man is a heinous crime,” he said in his speech. Dr
Mahathir also expressed his disappointment in Barack Obama and said
that the US president has failed. Obama celebrated his first year in
office today. “Well, I am a bit disappointed because so far none
of his promises have been kept. He promised to get out from Afghanistan
but he ended up sending more troops there instead. He promised to close
down Guantanamo but he has not closed down Guantanamo. Even other
things he has not been able to do. “It is quite easy to promise
during election time but you know there are forces in the United States
which prevents the president from doing some things. One of the forces
is the Jewish lobby, IPAC,” he said. Dr Mahathir had previously blamed the Jews for causing the Asian financial crisis. Courtesy: TheMalaysianInsider

***THE MAIN BOARDS - Welcome to the Prison Planet Forum*** / General Discussion / Re: Jim Kramer says Illuminati on T.V.

When
the bailout TARP stuff was going around, a few reporters even mentioned
"illuminati bankers" were the ones forcing everyone's hand to sign
these loans.
I had never seen an admission, made in a
mainstream news channel, of the existence of the supposedly extinct
Illuminati. (And never thought I would.) I have repeatedly seen
analysts and politicians openly talking about a "New World Order" being
built, even here in Portugal, but this one goes even deeper than that.
The guy openly states who's really pulling the strings of the economy! And not only does he mention a secret society, he also gives people a peek of the whole network by linking it with other known institutions and an individual. Incredible how much "in-your-face" this people can be... Here's the exact quote of what he says: "The Bavarian Illuminati, the Trilateral Commission, Goldman Sachs, and the Queen of England, are not all bad."--- Jim Cramer, on CNBC, January 27th 2010 ( http://www.cnbc.com/id/15840232?video=1397295660)

Globalization and the plan for NWO / Technology / Re: Hey Ubuntu, Stop Making Linux Look Bad

Concerning
netbooks and Ubuntu, coincidently, I'm just about to reinstall "Ubuntu
Eee 8.04.1" and just thought of another tip I can give: One
thing you can install in your netbooks running a Debian-derived
GNU/Linux distribution is a tool called "voice-command", that you can
download from ASUS' website - http://update.eeepc.asus.com/
- that enables you to dictate some voice commands instead of having to
type all the time or search for menu entries in the small screen. I found it to be quite useful when accessing the web in rather dark places where I can barely see my tiny keyboard.

http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9141105/NSA_helped_with_Windows_7_developmentNSA helped with Windows 7 development
Privacy expert voices 'backdoor' concerns, security researchers dismiss idea
By Gregg KeizerNovember 18, 2009 04:09 PM ET Computerworld
- The National Security Agency (NSA) worked with Microsoft on the
development of Windows 7, an agency official acknowledged yesterday
during testimony before Congress. "Working in partnership with
Microsoft and elements of the Department of Defense, NSA leveraged our
unique expertise and operational knowledge of system threats and
vulnerabilities to enhance Microsoft's operating system security guide
without constraining the user to perform their everyday tasks, whether
those tasks are being performed in the public or private sector,"
Richard Schaeffer, the NSA's information assurance director, told the
Senate's Subcommittee on Terrorism and Homeland Security yesterday as
part of a prepared statement. "All this was done in coordination
with the product release, not months or years later during the product
lifecycle," Schaeffer added. "This will improve the adoption of
security advice, as it can be implemented during installation and then
later managed through the emerging SCAP standards." Security
Content Automation Protocol, or SCAP, is a set of standards for
automating chores such as managing vulnerabilities and measuring
security compliance. The National Institute of Standards and
Technologies (NIST) oversees the SCAP standards. This is not the
first time that the NSA has partnered with Microsoft during Windows
development. In 2007, the agency confirmed that it had a hand in
Windows Vista[1] as part of an initiative to ensure that the operating
system was secure from attack and would work with other government
software. Before that, the NSA provided guidance[2] on how best to
secure Windows XP and Windows 2000. According to Marc Rotenberg,
the executive director of the Electronics Privacy Information Center
(EPIC), the NSA's involvement with operating system development goes
back even farther. "This battle goes back to at least the crypto wars
of the early '90s," said Rotenberg, who remembered testifying about the
agency's role in private sector computer security standards in 1989. But
when the NSA puts hands on Windows, that raises a red flag for
Rotenberg, who heads the Washington, D.C.-based public interest
research center. "When NSA offers to help the private sector on
computer security, the obvious concern is that it will also build in
backdoors that enables tracking users and intercepting user
communications," Rotenberg said in an e-mail. "And private sector firms
are reluctant to oppose these 'suggestions' since the US government is
also their biggest customer and opposition to the NSA could mean to
loss of sales." Rotenberg's worries stem from the NSA's
reputation as the intelligence agency best known for its eavesdropping
of electronic messaging, including cell phone calls and e-mail. Andrew
Storms, the director of security operations at nCircle Security, didn't
put much credence in the idea that Microsoft would allow the NSA to
build a hidden entrance to Windows 7. "Would it be surprising to most
people that there was a backdoor? No, not with the political agenda of
prior administrations," said Storms. "My gut, though, tells me that
Microsoft, as a business, would not want to do that, at least not in a
secretive way." Roger Thompson, chief research officer at AVG
Technologies, agreed. "I can't imagine NSA and Microsoft would do
anything deliberate because the repercussions would be enormous if they
got caught," he said in an interview via instant messaging. "Having
said that, I think we should understand that there is every likelihood
that certain foreign governments are constantly looking for
vulnerabilities that they can use for targeted attacks," Thompson
continued. "So if they're poking at us, I think it's reasonable to
assume that we're doing something similar. But I seriously doubt an
official NSA-Microsoft alliance." The NSA's Schaeffer added that
his agency is also working on engaging other major software makers,
including Apple, Sun and Red Hat, on security standards for their
products. "More and more, we find that protecting national
security systems demands teaming with public and private institutions
to raise the information assurance level of products and services more
broadly," Schaeffer said. Microsoft was not immediately available for comment on the NSA's participation in Windows 7's development. 1. http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9007719/NSA_helped_Microsoft_make_Vista_secure2. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/885409

When what happens? What are you going on about? Your deciding where to live based on a conspiracy and what Alex Jones said?
When oil runs out. Which, probably for us westerners, will gradually happen in the next couple of decades. That's
what "Peak Oil" means. We are now at a moment in History in which the
consumption of oil is the biggest ever, but because it's a finite
resource, it will soon begin to run out. And the problem is not only
when it begins to run out. It has started already because the
increasing demand for oil has already surpassed supply. That's why the
economy is collapsing and why from now on it will only continue to
collapse. Check the posts I've mentioned. I'm not forecasting
based on what Alex Jones said, but upon research I did years ago. In
fact, Alex, Paul Watson, and others, even deny this, and, with some
reason to it, think that the data being presented concerning the amount
of oil left is being manipulated as part of the NWO conspiracy of
deindustrializing the world. But still, concerning the
documentary I've mentioned, I've just learned there's a sequel to it,
that talks about how people can prepare for a post-petroleum society,
and that seems to be interesting: http://escapefromsuburbia.com/trailer2.html

True
communists, like the Portuguese Communist Party, that is of Stalinist
tradition, are discretely exposing this hoax, 9/11, etc.
The
thing is that communist parties in the West were never intended to
fully implement the reforms they claim they want. The true communists
you have nowadays are people who were effectively brainwashed by, and
truly believe in, Marxist propaganda and that, like Stalin himself,
have got out of control of the NWO.
Communism, according to Engels/Marx,
is a NWO creation. And the communist parties in the West have been
created just to shift things into a more "leftist" position. That's why
the "Communist Manifesto" was written by a capitalist, why the
Communist Party of the U.S. has been founded by a capitalist, and
probably why you have this Monbiot character going along with this
capitalist scheme.
Interesting to note, is how, in contrast, the local Trotskyists (the modern-day followers of NWO-puppet Leon Trotsky) have completely whitewashed this Climategate scandal,
never talk about 9/11, make very light critics to outrageous police
state measures while presenting some proposals of their own,
occasionally support mainstream controlled-"left-wing" candidates, have
always been given a lot of attention by the controlled media, in which
they openly brag to have a lot of people, and with the help of which
they probably managed to reach an almost 3rd party status, are members
of an International and are all pro-European, have an elitist lifestyle
not very congruent with people who defend the interests of the working
class (who they only appear to defend in rhetoric and not in effective
practical terms), and openly discuss the Hegelian Dialectic process,
presenting the modern-day Welfare State as a result of the clash
between Capitalism and Communist ideals. Interesting indeed...
