ABC Report: Grenade thrown near President

According to the report, after President Bush left, the Secret Service was informed by Georgian authorities that during his speech, someone threw a device within 100 feet from the stage. The device hit someone and fell to the ground, but did not go off. It was later determined that the device was a grenade.

Man Busted, Charged with trying to Buy Illegal Weapons
An ex-Israeli army soldier living in Queens has been arrested for plotting to buy a half-dozen hand grenades.
You know, if an Arab was caught with an Uzi, another unspecified assault rifle, and trying to buy grenades, the US mainstream media would be screaming "TERRORIST SUSPECT APREHENDED" on page one above the fold.

US urged to find Cuban suspect

Julian Borger in Washington
Tuesday May 10, 2005
The Guardian

The Bush administration was under pressure yesterday to track down a Cuban exile and former CIA agent implicated in a series of terrorist attacks.

In the next few days, the Venezuelan government is due to demand the extradition of Luis Posada Carriles in connection with the bombing of a Cuban airliner in 1976, in which 73 people died. He is said to be hiding in Florida.

Mr Posada, 77, has also admitted carrying out attacks on Cuban tourist sites, including one in 1997 in which an Italian was killed. He was convicted in Panama over a 2000 plot to assassinate Fidel Castro.

...

"This is a test of George Bush's true colours on fighting terrorism, and it also opens up a huge can of worms on the CIA's involvement in anti-Castro violence in the 70s," said Peter Kornbluh at the National Security Archive, an independent watchdog group.

The archive has acquired a 1976 FBI document tying Mr Posada to the plot to down the Cuban airliner.

'We want biometrics' say bank customers

by Will Sturgeon

They know what they want but can't quite put their finger on it...

One in three banking customers is ready to embrace biometric technologies in the hope of adding greater security to their finances.

Card cloning, PIN theft by shoulder surfing and high-profile phishing attacks are all undermining consumer confidence in secure banking and many would be happy to use biometric solutions such as digital fingerprints to add an extra layer of authentication and security, according to Fujitsu Services.

Fujitsu interviewed UK banking customers and found one in three would like their banks to start using biometrics.

Bloggers strike back

By GARY TANNER

Monday, May 9, 2005 Updated at 11:07 AM EDT

Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Bloggers — those Internet-based writers without rules — are fighting back against criticism that their work is unreliable, libellous or just poorly done.

More than 300 bloggers came to town Friday for a two-day conference that was heavy on teaching techniques used by journalists in what bloggers term "the mainstream media." One class taught students how to access and analyze government statistics.

Conference organizer Bill Hobbs called blogging "citizen journalism."

We're not the ones who helped lie this nation into a war, remember?

We're not the ones who insisted Iraq had WMDs, remember?

We're not the ones who insisted Iraq was helping Al Qaeda, remember?

We're not the ones who insisted Iraq was behind 9-11, remember?

ABCNNBBCBS made all those claims. And Americans kids are dying because of them. And now that the lies are exposed, the mainstream media wants to scream and cry that blogs are "unprofessional". Well, to a whore, a girl who gives it away for free may be "unprofessional", but that doesn't keep the whore from being a whore.

The mainstream media is about sales, sales of products, sales of government policy. The mainstream media has lost the battle for the control of the minds of America; last week's Gallup polls proved that. Blogs hold the high ground in the flow of information in the US, despite the absence of "gloss", for one simple reason.

We're giving people what they want. We give people the truth.

There were no WMDs in Iraq.

Iraq was not aiding Al Qaeda.

Al Qaeda is a Mossad front.

Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11.

Deal with it.

Cestující ke komunikaci používali satelitní telefony

Prima: Letadlo CIA opět přistálo v Česku

Boeing 737, který údajně používá v CIA, na snímku z ruzyňského letiště. (9. ledna 2004)

07.05.2005 19:36 - Boeing americké tajné služby CIA měl v pátek večer znovu přistát na letišti v Praze-Ruzyni. Američané v něm prý převážejí vězně do zemí, kde jsou mučeni při výslechu. Informaci jako první přinesl počátkem dubna americký deník The New York Times.

Údajný letoun CIA z Česka opravdu startoval

České úřady: O letu vězňů CIA nevíme

CIA údajně vozila mučit vězně do ciziny

Údajně jde o stejné letadlo, které v Praze přistálo již dvakrát. Televize Prima uvedla, že letadlo v Ruzyni přistálo kolem 22. hodiny.

Poté, co se média o něm zmínila, změnilo prý jen majitele a evidenční číslo. Obě společnosti jsou však zřejmě jen fiktivní a mají krýt aktivity CIA, informovala Prima.

Podle letového plánu mířilo z afghánského Kandaháru do amerického města Baltimore.

Na zemi zůstalo více než dvě hodiny. Vystoupilo z něj jedenáct lidí, kteří se procházeli po ploše letiště a ke komunikaci používali satelitní telefony, uvedla televize. S reportéry se odmítli bavit.

České úřady nic nevěděly

První letadlo mělo z České republiky startovat už v roce 2003. Podle reportérů NYT do Uzbekistánu. České úřady o tom údajně nevěděly.

Počátkem března přišla americká televizní stanice ABC s informací, podle níž dvě letadla CIA ze Severní Karolíny létala do Afghánistánu, Egyptu, Iráku, Maroka či Pákistánu. Často přistávala také v bývalém Sovětském svazu.

Údajně do těchto zemí odvážela vězně, protože tam není mučení při výslechu nic výjimečného.

Odigo says workers were warned of attack

Sun., May 08, 2005 Nisan 29, 5765

By Yuval Dror

Odigo, the instant messaging service, says that two of its workers received messages two hours before the Twin Towers attack on September 11 predicting the attack would happen, and the company has been cooperating with Israeli and American law enforcement, including the FBI, in trying to find the original sender of the message predicting the attack.

Micha Macover, CEO of the company, said the two workers received the messages and immediately after the terror attack informed the company's management, which immediately contacted the Israeli security services, which brought in the FBI.

"I have no idea why the message was sent to these two workers, who don't know the sender. It may just have been someone who was joking and turned out they accidentally got it right. And I don't know if our information was useful in any of the arrests the FBI has made," said Macover. Odigo is a U.S.-based company whose headquarters are in New York, with offices in Herzliya.

As an instant messaging service, Odigo users are not limited to sending messages only to people on their "buddy" list, as is the case with ICQ, the other well-known Israeli instant messaging application.

Odigo usually zealously protects the privacy of its registered users, said Macover, but in this case the company took the initiative to provide the law enforcement services with the originating Internet Presence address of the message, so the FBI could track down the Internet Service Provider, and the actual sender of the original message.

Captured Al-Qaeda kingpin is case of ‘mistaken identity’
Christina Lamb and Mohammad Shehzad Islamabad
THE capture of a supposed Al-Qaeda kingpin by Pakistani agents last week was hailed by President George W Bush as “a critical victory in the war on terror”. According to European intelligence experts, however, Abu Faraj al-Libbi was not the terrorists’ third in command, as claimed, but a middle-ranker derided by one source as “among the flotsam and jetsam” of the organisation.

Al-Libbi’s arrest in Pakistan, announced last Wednesday, was described in the United States as “a major breakthrough” in the hunt for Osama Bin Laden.

Bush called him a “top general” and “a major facilitator and chief planner for the Al- Qaeda network”. Condoleezza Rice, secretary of state, said he was “a very important figure”. Yet the backslapping in Washington and Islamabad has astonished European terrorism experts, who point out that the Libyan was neither on the FBI’s most wanted list, nor on that of the State Department “rewards for justice” programme.

Blair's Next War

by Dave Wearing May 04, 2005
Democrats Diary


"This notion that the United States is getting ready to attack Iran is simply ridiculous. (Short pause) And having said that, all options are on the table." (Laughter) George Bush - press conference, Brussels, 22 February 2005

During the UK election campaign many of New Labour's supporters have stressed that the issue of the war in Iraq, whatever one's view of the government's conduct, belongs firmly in the past. Columnist Polly Toynbee has said that to cast an anti-war vote against the government would be to take "revenge for a war that will never be repeated". Former New Labour minister Robin Cook, who resigned in the run-up to the Iraq war, said that "it is not going to happen again..No 10 knows perfectly well that it cannot repeat the controversy over Iraq". But the case for optimism is tenuous. To present the Iraq war as a unique and unrepeatable event is to fundamentally misrepresent the current global picture and the UK's place within it. In fact Britain could well be involved in further US military action in the near future, perhaps in an assault on Iran as early as next month.

Boeing CIA skutečně odstartoval z Česka

foto: archiv

Boeing 737 s imatrikulačním číslem N313P, který byl označován za servisní letoun americké tajné služby CIA, skutečně odstartoval 21. září 2003 z České republiky do Uzbekistánu, jak před několika dny napsal list The New York Times (NYT) v článku o praktikách CIA s převozy teroristů k výslechům.
6.5. 2005 03:33

PRAHA - "21. září 2003 Boeing 373 s americkým imatrikulačním číslem N313P skutečně z ČR startoval do uzbeckého Taškentu," potvrdil včera Právu Richard Klíma, mluvčí Řízení letového provozu (ŘLP).

Negativní vyjádření ŘLP ve středečním Právu způsobila nepřesnost v dotazu zaslaném mluvčímu o době předpokládaného pobytu amerického letadla v Česku. Podle mluvčího však nelze zpětně dohledat, o které letiště v ČR se jednalo, protože služby ŘLP spočívají v zajištění bezpečného letu, nikoli v archivaci údajů.

Americká média na základě svědectví bývalých zajatců i pozorování personálu letišť, ale i diplomatů vážně podezírají CIA, že zmíněným boeingem a také letounem Gulfstream G5 vyvážejí do různých zemí k tvrdým výslechům zajatce z Afghánistánu, Iráku i podezřelé teroristy.

Mezi tyto země patří i Uzbekistán, který byl do útoku z 11. září 2001 v USA na tapetě kvůli porušování lidských práv a drsné zacházejí s vězni, ale nyní se stal spojencem v boji proti terorismu a těší se větší shovívavosti Washingtonu, upozornil list NYT.
Přistoupil někdo?

Je tedy možné, že Boeing 737 - možná se zajatci na palubě - udělal v Česku jen technické mezipřistání, ale nelze patrně ani vyloučit, že mohl další podezřelé převzít z rukou českých úřadů. Až dosud však příslušné složky v ČR daly najevo, že o letadlu nevědí.

Roušku tajemství kolem přistání stroje u nás a jeho režimu na letišti - tedy zda doplňoval palivo, a zejména zda přibíral cestující a případně kolik - nepomohla objasnit ani Česká správa letišť.

"Údaje obchodního rázu o svých klientech nejsme oprávněni sdělovat," odpověděla včera mluvčí ČSL Anna Kovaříková s odvoláním na smluvní povinnosti vůči obchodním partnerům.

Přesto je jisté, že se jednalo o stroj v té době registrovaný na společnost Premiere Executive Travel Services, kterou americká televize CBS a časopis Newsweek označily za firmu, od níž si CIA letadla pronajala.

List The Washington Post připomněl, že praxi CIA už podrobilo vyšetřování několik evropských vlád. Například Švédsko v roce 2001 a Německo v roce 2003.
Bílý letoun bez jediného nápisu

Firemní příslušnost letadla potvrdil i internetový server specializovaný na letecké snímky (www.planepictures.net). Katalog letadel zachycuje Boeing 737 s imatrikulací N313P půldruhého měsíce před cestou do ČR - 6. srpna na letišti ve Frankfurtu nad Mohanem - a jako společnost uvádí právě Premiere Executive Travel Services.

Stroj byl ve Frankfurtu vyfotografován vícekrát. Je celý bílý bez jediného nápisu či grafiky kromě úzké červené a tmavě lemované linky táhnoucí se podél spodní části trupu až k horní části ocasního kormidla. V zadní části trupu je čitelná imatrikulace N313P.

Tato označení "cestují". Podle New York Times měl být boeing pod tímto číslem ve službách CIA do začátku roku 2005. Podle údajů americké Federální letecké správy (FAA) imatrikulace N313P opravdu přešla letos 24. ledna na jistého Richarda ze státu Idaho.

Comment: A reminder to naive cognitive dissonance dupes who whine, 'they'd never do that!' when THEY HAVE done exactly that throughout history.

Pope was investigating Knights Templar before his election

Posted on Thursday, May 05 @ 12:40:39 EDT by drew

*** The new Pope, Benedict XVI, was actively investigating secret societies including the Knights Templar and the Illuminati, it was revealed yesterday.

Details were exposed by a local newspaper in Hertfordshire, England. Cardinal Ratzinger was head of the Inquisition, the arm of the Church set up to investigate, persecute or eliminate heretics. But the curious thing is, we now know that he started his investigation shortly before he was elected as the new Pope. Did he know something? He certainly made no secret of his ambition to become Pope. ***

Pope’s probe into Hertford’s Templars

THE NEW POPE has reportedly made inquiries into a secret society in Hertford, the Knights Templar.

He is thought to have contacted a top Hertfordshire historian and a records officer at County Hall in Hertford.

The inquiries follow the Templars’ demand last December for a papal apology by 2007 for their persecution by the Vatican almost 700 years ago.

The demand – which the Vatican was said to be ‘seriously considering’ – made international headlines after it was exclusively revealed by the Mercury. The news also appeared in national newspapers, including The Times, The Independent, and The Guardian.

Now we have received new information that Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger made the calls prior to his election as Pope Benedict XVI earlier this month.

A source told the Mercury that the German cardinal contacted local history expert Dr Alan Thompson at the University of Hertfordshire. The anonymous source also pointed out that the Pope’s homeland, Bavaria, where he became a memeber of Hitler Youth, is also the homeland of a mysterious secret society, the Illuminati.

After we asked him to confirm the claim, Dr Thompson said: “I was contacted some time ago by a previous cardinal ... but I don't want to talk any more about it.”

Tim Acheson, a modern-day Templar, commented: “The professor may not want to give anything away, but there is an important clue in his reply. The ‘previous cardinal’ can only refer to one man – Ratzinger.”

In Dan Brown’s best-selling novel, Angels and Demons, the Illuminati takes revenge on the Vatican. Mr Acheson speculated, “Ratzinger is on record suggesting that Freemasonry was set up to persecute Christianity. Perhaps it is the revenge of the Templars that the Church fears, since the origin of Freemasonry is rooted in the persecution of the Templars by the Church.”

Before he became Pope, Cardinal Ratzinger led the Vatican committee once known as the ‘Inquisition’. Among its roles is to consider apologies to groups persecuted by the church.

Such groups include the Knights Templar, a secretive Order of warrior monks who were persecuted by King Phillip IV of France and Pope Clement V from October 13, 1307.

The Mercury’s source also claimed that the cardinal contacted Herts County Council's environmental records officer, Alison Tinneswood.

Ms Tinneswood would not comment this week and, seeking refuge in the “Data Protection Act”, a Herts County. Council spokesman refused to confirm or deny that a member of staff had been contacted by the Vatican.

A press officer for the Holy See pledged to look into the matter.

Mr Acheson observes an ironic historical connection between the Templars and the name of the new Pope.

He added, cryptically: “The pontiff chose Benedict as his papal title, a name with special significance for the Knights Templar. The Rule of the Templars, which is like a code of conduct for the Order, was originally known as the Rule of Benedict.”

Wild conspiracy theory?

Cisco slammed for RFID staff tracker
Wireless RFID server tracks personnel via tags embedded in uniforms
Iain Thomson, vnunet.com 04 May 2005
ADVERTISEMENT

Cisco has come under fire from privacy groups as it prepares to launch a wireless RFID server that can track people and equipment using existing Wi-Fi networks.

The Wireless Location Appliance 2700 is designed to track RFID tags down to a few metres and display the location on a central map.

Alarms can be raised if the tag moves out of a predefined area, allowing companies to track equipment and, more controversially, personnel.

"This can track your most valuable assets and people," said Phil Dean, manager of applications networking for Cisco EMEA.

However, the technology was slammed by privacy group Liberty. "This latest product undermines employee privacy even further and reinforces the slur that workers cannot be trusted," said Dr Caoilfhionn Gallagher, policy officer at Liberty.

"Using RFID in fixed objects is one thing, using it in moving objects and embedded in uniforms is another. This allows employers to track behaviour and movement during work hours."

The server was developed by AirSpace before the company was bought by Cisco. It damps down fluctuating levels of Wi-Fi coverage throughout a walled building to obtain an accurate fix on the tags.

It will only work with active RFID tags, which carry a power source, rather than the smaller passive systems that only activate when scanned. The active tags cost at least $5 each, which would boost the cost of widescale deployment.

The server will be available in June and will cost about £8,000.
