Subject: First Earth Battalion-Where It All Began - msg#00522
Cheney's
'Spoon-Benders' Pushing Nuclear Armageddon
by Jeffrey
Steinberg
Sometime in late
1980, then-Col. Paul E. Vallely, the Commander of the 7th Psychological
Operations Group, United States Army Reserve, Presidio of San Francisco, Ca.,
co-authored a discussion paper, which received wide and controversial attention
within the U.S. military, particularly within the Special Operations community.
The paper was titled "From PSYOP to MindWar: The Psychology of Victory," and it
presented a Nietzschean scheme for waging perpetual psychological warfare
against friend and enemy populations alike, and even against the American
people.
The "MindWar" paper
was provoked by an article by Lt. Col. John Alexander, which appeared in the
December 1980 edition of Military Review, advocating the introduction
of ESP (extra-sensory perception), "tele-pathetic behavior modification,"
para-psychology, psychokinesis ("mind over matter"), remote viewing, out of body
experiences, and other New Age and occult practices into U.S. military
intelligence. Alexander's paper was titled "The New Mental Battlefield: Beam Me
Up, Spock."
But the subsequent
paper co-authored by Vallely went way beyond ESP and the other paranormal
techniques advocated by Alexander: "Strategic MindWar must begin the moment war
is considered to be inevitable," the document stated. "It must seek out the
attention of the enemy nation through every available medium, and it must strike
at the nation's potential soldiers before they put on their uniforms.
It is in their homes and their communities that they are most vulnerable to
MindWar....
"To this end,"
Vallely and co-author continued, "MindWar must be strategic in emphasis, with
tactical applications playing a reinforcing, supplementary role. In its
strategic context, MindWar must reach out to friends, enemies, and neutrals
alike across the globe?neither through primitive 'battlefield' leaflets and
loudspeakers of PSYOP nor through the weak, imprecise, and narrow effort of
psychotronics?but through the media possessed by the United States which have
the capabilities to reach virtually all people on the face of the Earth. These
media are, of course the electronic media?television and radio. State
of the art developments in satellite communication, video recording techniques,
and laser and optical transmission of broadcasts make possible a penetration of
the minds of the world such as would have been inconceivable just a few years
ago. Like the sword Excalibur [King Arthur's magical sword?ed.], we have but to
reach out and seize this tool; and it can transform the world for us if we have
the courage and the integrity to enhance civilization with it. If we do not
accept Excalibur, then we relinquish our ability to inspire foreign cultures
with our morality. If they can then desire moralities unsatisfactory to us, we
have no choice but to fight them on a more brutish level.
"MindWar must target
all participants to be effective. It must not only weaken the enemy; it
must strengthen the United States. It strengthens the United States by denying
enemy propaganda access to our people, and by explaining and emphasizing to our
people the rationale for our national interest in a specific war."
Leaving nothing to
the imagination, the document concluded by emphasizing that MindWar should
employ subliminal brainwashing technologies, and weapons that directly attack
the targetted population's central nervous system and brain functioning: "There
are some purely natural conditions under which minds may become more or less
receptive to ideas, and MindWar should take full advantage of such phenomena as
atmospheric electromagnetic activity, air ionization, and extremely low
frequency waves," the paper concluded.
The "MindWar" paper
was disturbing, for reasons beyond its fascistic and occultist content. For one
thing, Colonel Vallely's co-author was a PSYOP Research & Analysis Team
Leader named Maj. Michael A. Aquino. Five years before the circulation of the
MindWar paper, Special Forces Reserve officer Aquino had founded the Temple of
Set, a Satanic organization which was the successor to Anton Szandor LeVay's
Church of Satan. Aquino would soon be grabbing headlines, which persisted
throughout the 1980s, as a leading suspect in a nationwide Satanic pedophile
ring, that particularly targetted daycare centers on such military bases as Fort
Bragg and the Presidio.
Furthermore, Vallely
and Aquino's MindWar scheme is remarkably similar to the Total Information
Awareness (TIA) program launched by the Donald Rumsfeld Pentagon, under the
direction of Irangate figure Adm. John Poindexter. Ostensibly, the Total
Information Awareness global propaganda and mega-data-mining plan was scrapped
after a series of negative news stories, but Pentagon sources have reported that
the program was merely "taken into a black box."
Indeed, on Aug. 16,
2005, The New York Times' Philip Shenon revealed that a super-secret
Pentagon "special action program" called Able Danger had tracked Mohammed Atta
and three of the other Sept. 11, 2001 hijackers a year prior to the
attacks; but Pentagon lawyers with the Special Operations Command refused to
allow the information to be shared with the FBI, for fear of exposing the
data-mining program to any public scrutiny. The Times learned of Able
Danger from Lt. Col. Anthony Schaffer, who was the program's liaison to the
Defense Intelligence Agency at the time.
'Nuke
Iran!'
Colonel
Vallely's association with Aquino did little to stall the former's military
career advancement. A West Point graduate, Vallely retired in 1991 as deputy
commanding general of the U.S. Army of the Pacific. From 1982-86, he headed the
351st Civil Affairs Command, placing him in charge of all Special Forces,
Psychological Warfare, and Civil Affairs Military units in the Western United
States and Hawaii.
Today, he is
practicing what he and Satanist Aquino preached in the MindWar paper, and is one
of the leading propaganda assets in Vice President Dick Cheney's push for
military confrontation with Iran?one that could see the United States carry out
the first pre-emptive nuclear attack in history.
General
Vallely, now retired from the military, is a senior military commentator for
Rupert Murdoch's shrill Fox TV News; is a "client" of Benador Associates, the
premier public relations firm for the neo-conservative cabal in Washington; is
the Military Committee chairman for Frank Gaffney's neo-conned Center for
Strategic Policy; and is the co-founder, along with Gen. Thomas McInerney
(USAF-ret.), another Benador client, of the Iran Policy Committee. IPC is yet
another neo-con front group that: 1) promotes the Mujahideen-e-Khalq (MEK), a
group on the State Department's list of International Terrorist Organizations
(for assassinating a number of U.S. military officers in Iran); and 2) demands
U.S. military action to impose "regime change" 1n Tehran, through such measures
as a massive bombing campaign against Iran's purported secret nuclear weapons
labs, and a U.S. Naval blockade of the Straits of Hormuz. Recently General
Vallely co-authored a book with General McInerney, titled Endgame?Blueprint
for Victory for Winning the War on Terror, which borrows, philosophically,
from his and Aquino's original MindWar rant.
The 'Jedi
Warriors'
General
Vallely, Colonel Alexander, and Lt. Colonel Aquino (ret.) are but three leading
figures within the Special Operations community, who have promoted the
application of New Age and outright Satanic practices to the art of war,
conducting experimental programs aimed at creating a Nietzschean "Übermensch
warrior."
In
preparation for this article, EIR has interviewed a number of senior
retired military and intelligence officers, who have identified, from their own
personal experiences, a number of other leading military officers who promoted
these efforts and funnelled massive amounts of Pentagon money into "black
programs," testing the military applications of a whole range of bizarre
"non-lethal" techniques and technologies. Some of the top-secret programs funded
by taxpayer dollars over the past 25 years betray a significant degree of
outright "spoon-bending" lunacy. Others lead directly to the doorsteps of
Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib military detention centers, where prisoners have
been turned into human guinea pigs for experimental torture techniques, drawn
from the same New Age bag of tricks.
And The
New Yorker magazine investigative journalist Seymour Hersh, in a Jan.
24-31, 2005 article on "The Coming Wars," mooted that the Special Forces "black
programs" may now have ventured into the field of "pseudo-gang warfare," in
which counterinsurgency methods blur with insurgency.
Quoting from
a September 2003 San Francisco Chronicle article by Naval Postgraduate
School defense analyst and Pentagon counterinsurgency advisor John Arquilla,
Hersh hinted that U.S. Special Forces units were being unleashed to create their
own terrorist "pseudo gangs" to more easily infiltrate terrorist groups like
al-Qaeda. Arquilla wrote: "When conventional military operations and bombing
failed to defeat the Mau Mau insurgency in Kenya in the 1950s, the British
formed teams of friendly Kikuyu tribesmen who went about pretending to be
terrorists. These 'pseudo gangs,' as they were called, swiftly threw the Mau Mau
on the defensive, either by befriending and then ambushing bands of fighters or
by guiding bombers to the terrorists' camps. What worked in Kenya a half-century
ago has a wonderful chance of undermining trust and recruitment among today's
terror networks. Forming new pseudo gangs should not be difficult."
Arquilla
added, for good measure: "If a confused young man from Marin County can join up
with al-Qaeda [a reference to John Walker Lindh, the so-called American
Talibani?ed.], think what professional operatives might do."
The 'Gang of
Four'
Four of the
names most often cited as promoters of programs like the "Goat Lab," the "Jedi
Warriors," "Grill Flame," "Task Force Delta," and the "First Earth Battalion,"
have held top posts within the military intelligence and Special Operations
commands:
Gen.
Albert Stubblebine III was the head of U.S. Army Intelligence, INSCOM
(Intelligence and Security Command), from 1981-84, during which time he launched
a series of secret projects at Fort Meade, Md., involving remote viewing and
other occult practices. General Stubblebine was, perhaps, the U.S. Army's most
senior and loudest advocate of the full gamut of New Age warfare.
Gen.
Peter Schoomaker, the current U.S. Army Chief of Staff, was Commanding
General of the Joint Special Operations Command (1994-96), Commander of the
United States Army Special Operations Command (1996-97), and Commander in Chief
of the United States Special Operations Command (1997-2000). According to a
well-researched book exposing the New Age penetration of the U.S. military,
The Men Who Stare at Goats, by Jon Ronson (Simon & Schuster, New
York, 2004), General Schoomaker has created a think-tank, under the sponsorship
of the Army Chief of Staff office, to expand the application of these bizarre
occult and para-normal operations throughout the U.S. Army, as his contribution
to President George W. Bush's Global War on Terrorism (GWOT).
Gen.
Wayne Downing also was the Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Special
Operations Command, and earlier directed all special operations during the
December 1989 invasion of Panama, when some of the MindWar techniques were used,
during the siege of the Vatican compound where Gen. Manuel Noriega had taken
refuge. Following the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, Downing was named National
Director and Deputy National Security Advisor for Combatting Terrorism in the
Bush-Cheney White House, a post he held until June 2002.
According to
military sources, General Downing left the White House as the result of a
conflict with the Joint Chiefs of Staff, over plans for the invasion of Iraq.
Downing had argued that Saddam Hussein could be overthrown by a massive "shock
and awe" bombing campaign, followed by an invasion by a force of no more than
25,000 Special Forces troops. The "Downing Plan" was rejected by the Chiefs as
"sheer madness," according to one senior military source familiar with the
events.
Gen.
William "Jerry" Boykin was the Commanding General of the U.S. Army
Special Operations Command (Airborne) at Fort Bragg, N.C., from 1998-2000. Prior
to that, he was the Commander of the elite counter-terror unit, Delta Force,
from 1992-95. He was, in that capacity, in charge of the Special Forces units in
Mogadishu, Somalia, during the famous 1993 "Black Hawk Down" incident, in which
a number of Special Forces soldiers were beaten to death by warlords, and
dragged through the streets of the city. Here, some of Lt. Col. John Alexander's
non-lethal systems, including "Sticky Foam," were directly put to the combat
test?and failed. From March 2000 until June 2003, General Boykin headed the U.S.
Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center. He was then named Deputy
Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence, a post he still holds. According to
The New Yorker piece by Hersh, Boykin and his immediate boss,
Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence Stephen Cambone, are directly in
charge of the Special Operations search-and-kill squads touted by John Arquilla
in his pseudo-gang promo.
Shortly after
his appointment to the Deputy Undersecretary position, General Boykin drew fire,
for remarks he delivered?in uniform?at a fundamentalist Christian church, in
which he smeared Islam as a "Satanic" religion, and characterized the U.S.
invasion of Iraq as a religious "crusade." He also said that "God had placed
George W. Bush" into the Presidency, provoking serious debates about his own
sanity and a Pentagon Inspector General's Office probe.
First Earth
Battalion?Where It All Began
According to
author Jon Ronson, in 1977, Lt. Col. Jim Channon, a Vietnam War combat veteran,
wrote a letter to Lt. Gen. Walter Kerwin, then the U.S. Army Deputy Chief of
Staff, proposing a fact-finding mission to unearth ways for the U.S. military to
become more "cunning." Channon was given an open-ended assignment, a small
Pentagon budget, and spent the next two years, by his own accounts, exploring
the depths of the New Age movement, seeking military applications. Channon
visited over 150 New Age facilities during his travels, with such
countercultural names as: Gentle Wind, Integral Chuan Institute, Dayspring,
Inc., The Center of Release and Integration, Postural Integration Reichian
Rebirthing, the New Age Awareness Fair, Beyond Jogging, Aikido with Ki, the
Biofeedback Center of Berkeley, and the Esalen Institute.
Channon
particularly spent a good deal of time training under Michael Murphy, the
co-founder of Esalen, which was the leading West Coast New Age psychological
experimentation center, testing a wide array of mind-control methods, many
involving the use of psychotropic drugs. Cultist mass murderer Charles Manson
spent Aug. 5, 1969 at Esalen, just four days before he unleashed the "Helter
Skelter" murder spree, for which he is still serving a lifetime jail sentence.
Manson had been tracked, from his years in state prison, by military
psychologists, who were studying behavioral patterns of what they dubbed the
"pathologically violent five percent."
In 1979, Lt.
Colonel Channon presented his findings to the Army brass in a 125-page document,
complete with slides, called "The First Earth Battalion." While the document was
laced with New Age vocabulary ("The First Earth is not mission oriented, it is
potential oriented. That means we shall continue to look everywhere to find
non-destructive methods of control."), Channon did propose an array of
non-lethal techniques that would be soon adopted by the military, including the
use of atonal noises as a form of combat psychological warfare, oriental martial
arts and spiritualist instruction, and widespread experimentation with
psychoelectronics and other means of debilitating enemy forces.
Channon's
First Earth Battalion slide show was brought to General Stubblebine, the head of
INSCOM, by Colonel Alexander, the author of the Military Review article
on "The New Mental Battlefield," and, by 1981, Stubblebine established a secret
"psychic spies unit" at Fort Meade, to test out such dubious techniques as
remote viewing.
Two years
later, General Stubblebine traveled to Fort Bragg, to pitch the
Channon/Alexander program to the top leadership of the Special Operations
community. By now, Stubblebine was convinced that, with the application of the
right "mind over matter" techniques, he could personally walk through walls. As
of this writing, he has not yet apparently succeeded. The Fort Bragg session, as
he would later recount it to author Ronson, was a fiasco, and no action was
taken to implement his program?or so Stubblebine thought.
In reality,
Fort Bragg, by 1978, was already a hotbed of mind-war experimentation. Among the
programs carried out at remote corners of the sprawling special operations base:
the Goat Lab, where a team of New Age-trained Special Forces soldiers attempted
to burst the hearts of goats, in an adjacent holding pen, through the power of
psychic concentration. Veterinarians working on the base were horrified that
Special Forces planes were airlifting goats up from Central America, without
going through the normal Customs inspections. The goats were used in the
training of combat medics. The goats would be shot, their limbs would be
amputated, and, on some occasions, they were "de-bleated" by having their
tongues cut out or their throats slashed. Then, they were subjected to the Goat
Lab psychic warfare tests.
Keying off of
Channon's blueprint, a Special Operations experimental team, dubbed "Jedi
Warriors," after the Star Wars craze, were trained in a wide array of Eastern
oriental martial arts and meditation techniques, combined with super-strenuous
physical training programs. Outside "experts" like Dr. Jim Hardt, were brought
in to train the "Jedi Warriors" to heighten their mental telepathy skills
through Zen. Following Jim Channon's First Earth Battalion recipe, Stuart
Heller, a New Age psychologist, who gave classes in stress control to corporate
executives and officials at NASA, was brought in to provide similar schooling to
the commandos. Channon had been introduced to Heller by Marilyn Ferguson, the
author of the 1980 book The Aquarian Conspiracy, which peddled a New
Age version of H.G. Wells' original Open Conspiracy concept of mass
social control and cultural paradigm-shifts.
Not all the
instructors of the "Jedi Warriors" were counterculture psychologists. Michael
Echanis, a Green Beret who was badly wounded in Vietnam, but later developed
advanced martial art skills, was brought in to train the "Jedi" in Hwa Rang Do,
a combat technique that emphasized "invisibility." Echanis would be killed in
1978 in Nicaragua, while working as a mercenary for the regime of Anastasio
Somoza. He had been the martial arts editor of Soldier of Fortune
magazine, a well-known hiring hall for ex-soldiers and wanna-be's, seeking their
fortunes as mercenaries.
By 1983,
between the INSCOM program and the black box efforts at Fort Bragg, a fairly
extensive network of military "spoon-benders" had been assembled, to the point
that Task Force Delta was created, to stage quarterly meetings of as many as 300
military occult practitioners, at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Col. Frank Burns
launched Meta Network, one of the first "chat rooms" run through DARPA's
(Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) computer networking system, that
would ultimately evolve into the internet.
The scheme to
create a breed of Nietzschean "super soldiers" employed some very far-out
characters, like the Israeli "spoon-bender" Uri Geller, a one-time stage
magician, who was brought into the U.S. intelligence community under the
original patronage of Dr. Andrija Puharich, a doctor who had been conducting
work on parapsychology and telepathy for the U.S. Army's Psychological Warfare
Division, since the 1950s. Dr. Puharich ran the Round Table Foundation of
Electrobiology, which experimented with the manipulation of brain waves. He
worked closely with Warren S. McCulloch, one of the founders of Cybernetics, and
with the British intelligence counterculture guru, Aldous Huxley.
Wolfowitz
Peddles Non-Lethal Warfare
According to
author Ronson, in an October 2001 interview in London, Uri Geller confided to
him that he had been "called back" to work for the U.S. government, immediately
after the Sept. 11 attacks. It seems that the Bush Administration decided that
the "psychic spies" could play a productive role in the hunt for Osama bin
Laden, and in efforts to prevent a replay of the terror attacks on New York and
Washington.
In fact,
Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz had been a big advocate of some of
Alexander and Channon's ideas, while serving as the chief policy advisor to
then-Defense Secretary Dick Cheney in the George Herbert Walker Bush Pentagon.
On March 10, 1991, Wolfowitz wrote a memo to Cheney, "Do We Need a Non-Lethal
Defense Initiative?" in which he wrote, "A U.S. lead in non-lethal technologies
will increase our options and reinforce our position in the post-Cold War
world." While Wolfowitz apparently made no mention of the more bizarre practices
promoted by Colonel Alexander, the guru of the non-lethal weaponry campaign, at
the time of Wolfowitz's memo, Alexander had retired from active duty, and had
been named head of the Non-Lethal Weapons Program at Los Alamos National
Laboratory.
In 1990,
Colonel Alexander had also come out with a book, The Warrior's Edge, in
which he promoted a variety of unconventional methods to promote "human
excellence and optimum performance" among soldiers, based on a course he taught
in 1983 called Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). Among the students in that
course were then-Senator and later Vice President Albert Gore, Gen. Max Thurman,
and General Stubblebine. By his own accounts, Alexander and Gore became close
friends in 1983, and remain so today.
Colonel
Alexander wrote that the goal of The Warrior's Edge was to "unlock the
door to the extraordinary human potentials inherent in each of us. To do this,
we, like governments around the world, must take a fresh look at non-traditional
methods of affecting reality. We must raise human consciousness of the potential
power of the individual body/mind system?the power to manipulate reality. We
must be willing to retake control of our past, present, and ultimately, our
future."
Uri Geller
was not the only "psychic warrior" called back to government service after 9/11.
Jim Channon, the original First Earth Battalion New Age super-soldier, according
to author Ronson, began holding a series of meetings in early 2004 with the new
Army Chief of Staff, Gen. Pete Schoomaker. Schoomaker had been commander of
Special Forces at Fort Bragg when the "Goat Lab" and "Jedi Warrior" programs
were under way. Ronson wrote that "The rumor was that General Schoomaker was
considering bringing Jim back from retirement to create, or contribute to, a new
and secret think-tank, designed to encourage the army to take their minds
further and further outside the mainstream." Ronson described it as a revival of
Task Force Delta. Ronson soon received an e-mail from Channon, confirming the
rumor, and explaining that the think-tank idea had been floated "because
Rumsfeld has now openly asked for creative input on the war on terrorism ..
mmmm." Channon elaborated:
"The Army has
requested my services to teach the most highly selected Majors. The First Earth
Battalion is the teaching exemplar of choice. I have done that in the presence
of General Pete Schoomaker.... I am in contact with players who are or have
recently been in Afghanistan and Iraq. I have sent in exit strategy plans based
on Earth Battalion ideas. I talk weekly with a member of a stress control
battalion in Iraq who carries the manual and uses it to inform his teammates of
their potential service contributions...."
Guantanamo
and Abu Ghraib ... and al-Qa'im
The
International Committee of the Red Cross has published a series of studies and
sponsored several international conventions, to evaluate just how "non-lethal"
the non-lethal technologies are that have been promoted by Alexander, Channon,
and their ilk. According to a 1998 ICRC presentation before the European
Parliament, non-lethal weapons are simply defined as weapons with a less-than
25% fatality rate. Such now widely used non-lethal weapons as lasers, extremely
low frequency (ELF) weapons, and various chemical, biological, and audio stun
weapons, can cause permanent damage, such as blindness, deafness, and
destruction of gastrointestinal systems, which, the ICRC insists, require
serious study and a new set of international treaties and
conventions.
Indeed,
according to both Ronson and The New Yorker writer Jane Mayer, many of
the torture techniques employed at Guantanamo Bay, at Abu Ghraib, and at such
less-well-known locales as al-Qa'im near the Syrian border in Iraq, are based on
Channon and Alexander's non-lethal schemes, but with lethal consequences in some
cases.
Ronson
confirmed that a facility at al-Qa'im was conducting "interrogations" of
captured Iraqi insurgents, after playing, non-stop, for days at a time, the
theme song from Barney the Purple Dinosaur, "I Love You." Ronson is convinced
that the music was a cover for subliminal frequencies, very high- or very
low-frequency sounds that affect brain functioning, to break prisoners'
resistance. The prisoners were kept in metal shipping containers in the
scorching sun, blindfolded and in crouching positions, surrounded by barbed
wire, with the music (and subliminals) blaring.
In an article
published in the July 11-18, 2005 issue of The New Yorker, Mayer
revealed that Special Forces psychologists from the Survival, Evasion,
Resistance, and Escape (SERE) program at the JFK Special Warfare School at Fort
Bragg had been brought to Guantanamo Bay, to oversee interrogation strategies.
The SERE psychologists formed a core of the Behavioral Science Consultation
Teams (BSCT, or "Biscuits") that "reverse engineered" the techniques that were
used on Special Forces soldiers, to train them to survive enemy
torture/interrogations, as part of the advanced special warfare program at Fort
Bragg.
Jim Channon
confirmed, in another e-mail exchange with author Ronson, that many of the ideas
adopted by the Army Intelligence interrogators at Guantanamo, Abu Ghraib and
al-Qa'im came right out of his First Earth Battalion blueprint.
'Living
Embodiment' of First Earth Battalion
At one point
in his probe of the military's spoon-benders, author Jon Ronson asked Stuart
Heller, the friend of Marilyn Ferguson and Jim Channon, if he could name one
soldier who was "the living embodiment" of the First Earth Battalion. Without a
second thought, Heller replied: "Bert Rodriguez." "Bert's one of the most
spiritual guys I've ever met," Heller told Ronson. "No. Spiritual is the wrong
word. He's occultic. He's like a walking embodiment of death. He can stop you at
a distance. He can influence physical events just with his mind. If he catches
your attention he can stop you without touching you."
As Jon Ronson
reported, "In April 2001, Bert Rodriguez took on a new student. His name was
Ziad Jarrah. Ziad just turned up at the US 1 Fitness Center one day and said he
had heard that Bert was good. Why Ziad chose Bert, of all the martial arts
instructors scattered around the Florida shoreline, is a matter of speculation.
Maybe Bert's uniquely occultic reputation preceded him, or perhaps it was Bert's
military connections. Plus, Bert had once taught the head of security for a
Saudi prince. Maybe that was it."
Ziad Jarrah
presented himself as a Lebanese businessman, who traveled a great deal and
wanted to protect himself. "I liked Ziad a lot," Rodriguez later told Ronson.
"He was very humble, very quiet. He was in good shape. Very diligent." Rodriguez
taught Jarrah "the choke hold and the kamikaze spirit. You need a code you'd die
for, a do-or-die desire." Rodriguez added, "Ziad was like Luke Skywalker. You
know when Luke walks the invisible path? You have to believe it's there. And if
you do believe it it is there. Yeah, Ziad believed it. He was like Luke
Skywalker."
Rodriguez
trained Ziad Jarrah for six months, and gave him copies of several
knife-fighting books he had written. Jarrah shared them with a friend, Marwan
al-Shehhi, who boarded with him at the Panther Motel and Apartments in Deerfield
Beach, Fla.
On Sept. 11,
2001, Ziad Jarrah took control of United Airlines flight 93, and crashed it in a
field in Pennsylvania. Marwan al-Shehhi commandeered United Airlines flight 175
and crashed it into the South Tower of the World Trade Center in lower
Manhattan.

The First Earth Battalion: Dare to
Think the Unthinkable, Ideas and Ideals for Soldiers
Everywhere:
By Jim Channon
Introduction
In 1979, the Peoples? Republic of China publicly reported that several
thousand of its children aged 8-14 were capable of telepathy, clairvoyance,
X-ray vision, or psychokinesis. [EN1] Having already
heard about this program, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), National
Security Agency (NSA), Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), Lawrence Livermore
Laboratories, and the US Army were simultaneously pouring billions of dollars
into their own similar research.
The Army program was headquartered at Fort Meade, Maryland, and was part of
the Intelligence and Security Command (INSCOM). Leaders included Generals Edmund
Thompson and Albert Stubblebine, and Colonel John Alexander. [EN2]
Officers assigned to the US Army War College at Carlisle Barracks,
Pennsylvania [http://carlisle-wwwarmy.mil/library/ris.htm]
contributed research to the project, and "The First Earth Battalion" is
essentially a textual copy of one group's unclassified briefing slides.
Although decidedly New Age, the War College project was not entirely
theoretical. Colonel Alexander, for example, went on to become a leader in the
Los Alamos National Lab's non-lethal weapons program. [EN3] Likewise,
during the early 1980s Special Forces hired Richard Strozzi Heckler and other
outside contractors to provide two A-teams, a total of 25 men, with training in
biofeedback, aikido, and "mind-body psychology." In the latter program, a
typical training day included running, swimming, "industrial-strength"
calisthenics, and 1-1/2 hours of aikido practice. After six months, the soldiers
were not aikido masters but they were quantifiably 75% more physically fit than
when they started. [EN4]
During correspondence with the editor in January 2000, author Channon had
this to say:
The ideas circulated by this mythical force [First Earth Battalion] began
with combat of the collective conscience? the principal that if any contest is
viewed by the television audience, it will be judged in the end on ethical
superiority. Thus cameras mounted on dune buggies. The Army War College has the
most exhaustive instructional materials on peacekeeping. All these ideas were
first represented by Earth Battalion thinkers and the manual you
have.
Channon's statement may sound hyperbolic, but if you substitute
"CNN" for "EARTH BATTALION satellite" in the following document, then you have a
good description of the United States military's foreign policy of the 1990s.
Likewise, if you think of the global communication system Channon envisioned as
the Internet, then it appears that he had a pretty good idea of where ARPANET
(the acronym for the Department of Defense's Advanced Research Projects Agency's
computer network) was headed. Therefore, despite the hyperbole and New Age
jargon, Channon's crystal ball proved clearer than cynics probably expected.
And if nothing else, the following paper does suggest why drug testing became
common for all ranks during the mid-1980s.

PROTO-CULTURE
Building a new culture as a
system
The attached FIRST EARTH BATTALION field
manual is a physical representation of a mythical culture. Its
purpose is to familiarize people with an entirely new set of values and visions
all set within a context of community. They can imagine the whole system. They
can test the assumptions. They can see relationships. They can understand the
work. They can find a place for themselves.
This tool was used in the United States Army during the
early eighties. It allowed an entire generation of the army's best minds to
practice the future. Since that time the army has embarked on a radically new
mix of peace-keeping missions. They are leaders in the environmental movement.
They have built an incredibly agile educational system using simulations of the
future not worn out models of yesterday. If this information seems strange to
you it is because you are relying on media that has not bothered to get smart
enough about these things to report on the situation.
What is important here is that you engage in a
whole-systems approach to the new civilization you want to create. It is easy to
see what doesn't work. It is even easier to whine about what you expect others
to do. What we need is for you to is to assemble the new world as a system in
combinations that work. Bring your ideas into scenarios that allow you and
others to see the whole community as a dynamic entity. This is social
architecture.
Notice that the content in this field manual has pictures
and words reinforcing each other. Feel the culture as it is revealed as a
working entity. Consider your thinking taking shape in the form of such a
proto-culture.

warrior monks & the
first earth battalion
though this might be old-hat to some (tom b, you old counter cultural
coot i?m looking at you!) the first earth battalion is new to me. it?s the
product of a unique convergence of eras and ideas not likely to be arrived at
again any time soon. the tail end of the u.s. military investigations into
altered states, the increased esteem of psy-ops, the army?s hollywood
connection, and both the environmental and new age movements which had been
simmering in the cloudy minds of a generation of super-stoned, barefooted,
longhairs. fed on this unholy placenta, a resulting birth was the First Earth
Battalion Operations Manual
?the whaah?? well it?s a
1979 military document, by retired Lieutenant Colonel Jim Channon, which
essentially laid out an idyllic vision of a future U.S. military, peopled by an
elite class of tree-hugging, spiritually enlightened warrior monks, who would
usher in an earthly paradise through love and (among other kooky methods)
telekenisis.
really you have to read through it a bit to get the full weight of the
bat-shit craziness of it all. i can?t really scratch the surface here. the fully
hippie-come-star trek illustrated pdf can be downloaded here or the text
version can be viewed here.
the vision that it lays out is comical to say the least. to my mind think the
whole thing reads like a manual for a dungeons and dragons style role playing
game (1st earth battalion: march of the telekinetic spirit lambs. a
mmorpg, coming soon. it?s my idea! keep your grubby hands off it. ) take for
instance this list of character classes which might have been torn directly from
a d&d spin-off:
people
All warrior monks, but an interdependence of New Age skills as well.
Spirit wizard Meditation leader Martial arts wizard Nutritionist
herbalist Vexillographer (flags and banners) Cinematographer Old
tapes Holographer Printer Minstrels Video technoid Satellite
technoid Laser technoid General systems theorist Physicist
Futurist Builder Conservationist Indian tracker
thymelod the meek casts advanced herbalist spell, sneeze of confusion, for
+12 allergy damage.
what might said earth warriors look like? take a look at this piece of
artwork commissioned for a proposed movie version of the 1st earth battalion
story-

yeah. anyhoo kooky though the whole thing may be it gets more interesting,
and less amusing, when you take jon ronson?s very interesting sounding book the men who stared at
goats into account.
blurb: In 1979 a secret unit was established by the most gifted minds
within the US Army. Defying all known accepted military practice - and indeed,
the laws of physics - they believed that a soldier could adopt the cloak of
invisibility, pass cleanly through walls and, perhaps most chillingly, kill
goats just by staring at them. Entrusted with defending America from all known
adversaries, they were the First Earth Battalion. And they really weren?t
joking. What?s more, they?re back and fighting the War on Terror. ?The men who
stare at goats? reveals extraordinary - and very nutty - national secrets at the
core of George W Bush?s War on Terror.
evidently some of the looniness from the first earth battalion seeped
into the psy-ops groundwater of the pentagon, not as a utopian vision for peace,
of course, but in the form of novel ways to torture people. the best documented
tactic seems to be ?torture by repetitive music? which you can read a little
about on wfmu?s beware the blog in a march 2005 post titled: tunes for
torture, as well as a little related info over at vice.
as for the fate of the creator of it all jim channon, well one need
only check out this vid of him giving a keynote and
all will become clear. (that?s him in thumbnail.)

250 business innovators experienced a Global Mind
Change in Santa Barbara this weekend.

 

"Future shock
is not one big idea," Jim Channon whispered from the podium, "it's a thousand
little ones."
How many business conferences open with a masked and
robed master of ceremonies calling in the "muse" of the future of business? At
the Global Mind Change Forum put on last weekend in Santa Barbara by the World
Business Academy, that's exactly what Channon did - and the muse appeared,
singing, dressed in a blue feathered robe, and slowly crossed the stage while
Channon fell to his knees.
Channon is billed as America's first "corporate
shaman," and is the originator of the popular concept of "corporate visioning,"
but he's also got the chops - and the credentials - to be taken very, very
seriously, having worked as a consultant for ten of the world's hundred largest
companies, and as lead futurist and educational technologist for the U.S. Army.
His theatrical presentation marking the opening of the three day seminar was
well received by the energized, if mildly astonished, audience of 250 business
people from around the world, most of whom looked more like Men's Wearhouse
customers than seekers of aboriginal wisdom.
As Channon closed his speech to great applause, one
businessman who had come all the way from Great Britain turned to another and
said in a tone of scandalized glee, "Can you imagine that guy speaking in
London?!"

How FEMA Blocked Airboats
"Not because federal officials
provided guidance. Instead,
a major
from the Wildlife Service ran the operation".
Not because of federal officials but in spite of them, and not
because of Dub Bush-whacker(American Airboats is in Texas
on I-10 near the Texas border with Louisiana and I-10 passes
through New Orleans). Orange, Texas, was later hit dead on
by the second major hurricane, Rita.
And not because of Jeb Bush-whacker, governor of Florida,
who could have told his brother to back off his flakey green
hyped up chickenhawk FEMA airboat Bush Whackers "stuck
on stupid", but didn't. Maybe Dick and Dub and Jeb were
selling the $16 a gallon gasoline FEMA made airboaters
buy? Or, the worse the better until Dub's messianic photo
op?
What I can find on the internet makes it sound as if Cat 5 of
Tennessee contracted all the Katrina airboat volunteers in
the country,"seeking 300 airboats...700 boats on standby",
a thousand airboats, for HSA/FEMA, but that would be
tantamount to preventing as many airboats as possible
from coming, since FEMA was blocking airboats by two
fuel constraints. FEMA rules required each airboat operator
to buy a huge, expensive five hundred gallon tank and then
fill it with $8000 worth of fuel(then current Gulf Coast prices)
or waste fuel towing five hundred gallons of fuel plus their
airboats all the way from Florida, Georgia, Ohio, Tennessee,
places airboats came from. Then, FEMA Bushwhacked airboats
again if they did not fill their tanks at home before leaving--
FEMA turned back fuel tanker trucks from Mississippi and
Louisiana! And, if an airboat operator ran that gauntlet, he
was out as much as $8000 plus the cost of an ad hoc, soon to
be useless dedicated 500 gallon fuel storage tank.

FEMA called in a company that owns and operates a fleet of air
boats, to aide with the search and recovery of citizens trying to
survive the disaster and who are still in their homes, etc. A friend
of mine (from Arkansas) is one of the owner/operators of an air boat in
that fleet. He responded to FEMA’s request and went down to assist, all
at his own expense. When there, he reported to a FEMA manager or
supervisor who told him, and I quote: ”We need your assistance and can
use your help every day, there’s a lot of folks who have not been
found. But, you will have to pay[Dick and Dub $16 a gallon] for
your own gasoline for your air boat.”
The
cost of gasoline for that air boat, for each day, amounts to
approximately $550.00 per day, minimum. With the current gasoline
crisis, it could cost considerably more, up to $600 - $700 per day.
This
young man volunteered his time AND his boat to help - and was then told
by FEMA that he would have to pay, additionally, out of his own pocket,
all of the costs for his gasoline - to find the people who were in
flooded homes across the entire flooded area in the City of New
Orleans, where FEMA is assigned.
This young man doesn’t have
the money to donate his costs for gasoline for FEMA’s project, so,
guess where he is right now: yup, on the way back to Arkansas.

As a flooded New Orleans sinks further into despair, up to 500 Florida
airboat pilots have volunteered to rescue Hurricane Katrina victims,
transport relief workers and ferry supplies.
But they aren't being allowed in. And they're growing
frustrated.
"We cannot get deployed to save our behinds," said Robert Dummett,
state coordinator of the Florida Airboat Association.
He said the pilots, who range from commercial airboat operators to
weekend pleasure boaters, "are physically sick, watching the New
Orleans coverage and knowing that the resources to help these poor
people is sitting right in our driveways."
On standby since Monday, the pilots -- many from Central Florida
--
have spent thousands of their own dollars stocking their boats and
swamp buggies with food, water, medical supplies and fuel.
But the Federal Emergency Management Agency will not authorize the
airboaters to enter New Orleans. Without that permission, they would be
subject to arrest and would not receive security and support services.
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/state/orl-18canerail0305sep03,0,5461523.story?coll=orl-news-headlines-state
One hundred Florida airboaters were on their way to rescue disaster
victims Friday after federal officials finally gave the group the
official go-ahead.
As many as 500 airboat pilots from the state have volunteered to
help, but the Federal Emergency Management Agency had refused to
authorize the volunteers to enter New Orleans. Without that
permission, they would have been subject to arrest and would not
receive security and support services.
The initial 100 airboaters will work under the direction of the
U.S.
Coast Guard to evacuate more than 6,000 people marooned on their
rooftops in Chalmette, La., a suburb of New Orleans.
"Nobody has been there to help these people in Chalmette since the
hurricane hit," said Robert Dummett, coordinator for the Florida
Airboat Citizen Emergency Response Team, who enlisted the help of
congressmen to allow the rescue effort to proceed. "These people are
stranded."
More Florida airboaters are lined up to help when the first wave of
volunteers finishes its mission. The boaters have been instructed to
carry enough fuel, water, food and other supplies to last 72 hours, and
they have already had to purchase about 500 gallons of fuel each with
their own money.
'We've watched all these people on TV we know we can help, and it
has been so frustrating not to be able to do something.'
Lauren Brown spokeswoman for the Florida Airboat Association
http://www.txcn.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/texassouthwest/txcn/stories/090405dntexkatsixdays.2e1da9c.html
Ray Cone, a
volunteer who brought his airboat from Gainesville, Fla.
Saturday was the first day that National Guard troops began arriving
in Chalmette. The city of Vancouver, in Canada, sent its firefighters
to help. The Texas Department of Parks and Wildlife sent 50 boats and
55 game wardens.
Thomas Stone, the chief of the Chalmette Fire Department, said he
was ashamed by the federal government's slow response.
"We had people from Canada here before the federal government got
here," Chief Stone said. "God help us if a terrorist attack occurs."
The St. Bernard Parish president was so angry at the response that
he cursed at federal officials several times during an impromptu news
conference.
"These bastards can take care of Iraq but they can't take care of
their own ... people," said Henry J. Rodriguez Jr.
Mr. Rodriguez said there was never widespread looting in his
parish: "We gave orders that looters will be shot, and we don't care
who they are."

The 317-bed Uptown hospital, at the corner of Claiborne and
Napoleon avenues, is owned by Tenet Healthcare Corp.
The helicopters couldn't take enough people fast enough.
On Wednesday, two brothers from Thibodaux arrived with an
AIRBOAT to transport their mother, who was a patient in the
hospital's hospice unit, Carstens said. The woman died before
she reached dry ground.
But the brothers stayed anyway, evacuating SEVERAL HUNDRED

A
Port St. Lucie letter carrier shocked his bosses Tuesday when he turned
up on National Public Radio — and said he was more than 750 miles away.
Jim Osborne, 47, was scheduled to report to the Orange Avenue post
office in Fort Pierce but ended up on his airboat in the flooded
streets of New Orleans, searching for survivors of Hurricane Katrina.
After hearing last week about the need for
search and rescue boats there, Osborne packed up a camper, his airboat
and $500 worth of fuel, said his girlfriend, Veronica Flores. About 3
a.m. Friday, he left home with his son and two friends, and headed to
Baton Rouge, La., where he hoped to meet up with other boaters and
coordinate rescue efforts.
"He told me, 'I just want to save one child up there and it would
make my day,' " Flores said.
First, he'd have to cut through red tape.
From Osborne's periodic phone calls home, Flores learned that he
found a staging area in Louisiana Sunday, but emergency officials
didn't know where to send him. After waiting around a day, he was
paired with a rookie cop from New Orleans, an immigration agent from
Ohio and an NPR reporter
When Osborne arrived in New Orleans, he said, he
was one of only a few airboaters in the city. On Tuesday, he told
Flores there were more than 300, from Texas, Arkansas and as far away
as Pennsylvania.
Osborne, a 20-year veteran of the postal service, had taken a few
vacation days late last week, but was scheduled to return Tuesday to
his regular route, delivering mail in Fort Pierce. Instead, he asked
Flores to call an automated phone line at the postal service,
requesting time off without pay.

NEW ORLEANS —"Not a day
has gone by that we haven't taken somebody out," said Dale
Dorman, an airboat enthusiast from Alpharetta, Ga. He said has been
going out on searches for eight days and is "staying 'til it's done."
Airboats can skim across inches of water and even patches of pavement.
They are well suited for the search for victims in the half of the city
still covered with water, nearly two weeks after Katrina struck.
On Saturday, searchers took boats into Edgewood Park, a neighborhood of
small frame houses near Interstate 10.
Most of the pilots of the airboats, often called "swamp buggies," are
volunteers from the Everglades, and the bayous, marshes and other
wetlands of the South
Sherald 1/8CQ3/8 and Craig Daniels,
brothers from the southwestern Florida island of Chokoloskee, normally
take tourists on Everglades nature tours.
Police from around the country provide security on the boats.
On
the Daniels brothers' boat, the guards were two women sheriff's
deputies from Bernalillo County, N.M., who carried AR-15 rifles, the
civilian version of the military's M-16 assault rifle.
Several airboat pilots have been taken for cleansing and treatment
after falling into the floodwaters, which health officials say is laced
with dangerous bacteria and pollutants.
It's a tough job, said Dick Douse, who owns an airboat tour business in
West Palm Beach, Fla.
On Canal Street, what had been the launching point for airboats on
Friday was dry pavement on Saturday. A corpse floated near Canal
Street, just blocks from downtown and the French Quarter.
"We've got one down there tied off on a light pole," said an airboat
pilot from the Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Agency.

Osceola News-Gazette Staff Writer
With the flooding in the affected areas hampering rescue and relief
efforts, Tennessee-based Cat 5 Disaster Services, a company that has
contracts with the federal, state and county governments, put out a
call for airboat pilots to help with search and rescue, supply runs and
law enforcement patrols. They were seeking 300 airboats to help with
relief efforts. According to Michael Linton, event manager with the
company, by early Monday evening they had 700 boats on standby. They do
not need any more crews, said Linton.
Linton said they will be
working in all three of the most affected states, but were waiting for
more direction from emergency officials before sending out the crews,
which come from Texas to Florida, even as far as Michigan. They must
set up staging points, map out safe routes and determine where the need
is greatest.
According to Linton, each airboat and captain must
be Coast Guard-licensed, with liability insurance. They must also be
well equipped with food, water, fuel and other supplies for an extended
stay.
There has been no official word yet from emergency
management personnel in Louisiana, Alabama or Mississippi about the
need for airboats.
The Florida airboat volunteers are being
coordinated with help from the trade publication Airboat World, which
is posting updates on its Web site, and Florida Airboat Association,
although neither is officially associated with the contracted company.
Lauren
Brown, spokeswoman with the state association, said the organization
had been inundated with calls from airboat pilots around the state
trying to find out how they could help.
Terri Latner, editor of
Airboat World, said that airboats are versatile craft that would be
useful in relief efforts, able to travel over shallower water than
regular boats, even on land. With no underwater propeller, the airboats
can more easily dodge underwater debris as well.
Locally, several
airboat companies, usually occupied with ferrying tourists, are on
standby for word of where they are needed. Frustrated by a lack of
information, they wait for the go-ahead to get on the road.
Brent Sloan, owner of Big Toho Airboat Rides in Kissimmee, will be
working with Cat5. He is on standby.
“From
what I’ve seen on TV and heard, it’s devastating,” said Sloan. “I’ll
probably be running equipment to places it’s needed. I’ll be doing
search and rescue, although if they don’t call soon there won’t be
anything to search for.”
Chris Costa, owner of Glades Adventures
High Performance Airboat Tours in St. Cloud, is also prepared to send
out one or two of his boats, effectively shutting down his business.
However, Costa, who has been in contact with the Florida Airboat
Association, said he is also waiting for word of when he can leave and
where he is needed.
Boggy Creek Airboat Rides owner Chris Long
said he has called Cat5 and received confirmation that no more airboats
were needed. However, he stands ready to help if more Coast
Guard-licensed airboats and pilots are required.

County dive team chief returns after week of
airboat recovery work
By MATT SANCTIS
The exhaustion was obvious even in Brian Edwards' voice as he spoke
of
the week he spent in New Orleans with his airboat, churning through
murky, stinking waterways that used to serve as the city's downtown
streets.
Edwards, who works in the Sandusky County, Ohio, Tax Map Office,
also leads
the Sandusky County Dive Team. Edwards returned from New Orleans
Wednesday after spending the past week helping evacuate flood victims
from downtown New Orleans in his airboat(the
airboat is usually used for ice rescues here in Ohio).
Responding to requests for help ONLINE from New Orleans emergency
personnel, Edwards packed 72 hours' worth of food and fuel and headed
south to Louisiana where he met up with other airboat rescuers from
Florida.
They were quickly placed under the direction of the Louisiana Fish
and Wildlife Service.
Every morning, Edwards left at 6 a.m. with a convoy of eight other
boats and headed downtown, where victims were herded onto his boat and
taken to recovery points for evacuation.
In a little more than six days, Edwards helped evacuate three
downtown
hospitals and a government building that held more than 200 Louisiana
law enforcement officers.
The boats returned home every night at dusk for repairs and
cleaning,
but crews didn't have long to rest before returning to work.
The airboats could only carry five or six victims at a time, so
although the boats could get to the victims quickly, repeated trips
were necessary. Once at the recovery points, the victims were loaded
onto buses and sent to Texas.
Edwards said the rescue operation eventually got surprisingly
smooth,
but not because federal officials provided guidance. Instead, a major
from the Wildlife Service ran the operation, and the local emergency
crews learned how to get to the victims by a process of trial and error.
"It was well-organized because we organized it," Edwards said.
By the end of the week, fresh volunteers from around the country
began
pouring into the city, but so many people arrived to help "they were
falling all over each other," Edwards said. The major who had conducted
the operation finally told the airboat volunteers they needed to go
home and rest. Crews from Texas and Tennessee were taking over their
spots.

Local Air Boaters Frustrated That They Couldn’t Help In Louisiana
POSTED: 6:59 am EDT September 8, 2005, WFTV
COCOA, Fla. -- Some
local air boaters are among the Katrina recovery volunteers who feel
they weren't allowed to help as much as they could have. When Al
and Ann Ridgeway of Cocoa arrived in Louisiana with a permit to use
their airboat for rescues, they got the run around. The couple received
conflicting directions and were not allowed to enter certain areas
because authorities heard some air boaters were using fake search
permits[probably to get past FEMA nuisance posse, not for real world
use! -Bob]. Finally, they gave up."The biggest shame of it is, we have
an airboat that would carry a lot of people out of there," Al Ridgeway
said.

Project for the Exposure of Hidden Institutions (PEHI)
The purpose of the Project for the Exposure of Hidden Institutions
(PEHI) is to put together the entire spectrum of hidden organizations and secret
societies. Most of you who visit this site have probably heard of the more
well-known 'secret societies' like the Council on Foreign Relations, the
Bohemian Grove, and the Skull & Bones student society. Two other well known
'secret societies' are Bilderberg and the Trilateral Commission. The thing is,
when you really research these institutes you find that members often disagree
with each other, there's considerable infighting, and most members don't seem to
be privy to any information from the black and deep black programs. This is the
reason I always wondered how people went from the above organizations straight
to the very undefined concept of the 'Illuminati'. Of course, I can see
something very strange is going on. For some reason it's possible to suppress
information about humanities past, the UFO
phenomenon, alternative energy, the supernatural, high profile
assassinations, or the true cause of many terrorist attacks. Rather than
focusing on one tiny subject, PEHI will attempt to answer how all the above is
possible and which persons and institutes could be responsible for it.
This site will be fundamentally different than most. We don't need
another rewrite combined with another religiously biased opinion, which doesn't
stroke with any of the evidence. We need names of institutions, names of
members, and as much background information about both as possible. We need
organized digital membership lists in which all this information is available
for any purpose at any time. Biographies should be included and must be updated
continually in all of these lists as new information becomes available. I can
already guarantee you that when this is done on all the globalist societies, one
by one, we will see patterns in the leadership and we can pick out those people
that need to be investigated still further. If there are any 'puppet masters'
(and I'm not so sure about that at all), this is the only way to pick them out
and to have a rock solid foundation of research no one can dispute.
General oversight
At this introduction page I will give you an idea of what I'm working on at
the moment. It's not meant to back up every claim with a list of sources. This
is something that will be done at the 'in depth' section of the website.
On the left I have organized a lot of the most influential
privately funded discussion forums in the world. Already it is clear that
a few interests dominate the scene. The first one is the infamous
Rockefeller family. This family played a major role in setting up and / or
maintaining most of the American-based institutions: the Americas Society,
the Asia Society, the Japan Society, the CFR, and the Trilateral
Commission. As far as I know, they also funded the Atlantic Institute for
International Affairs and the Williamsburg Meetings, and probably a lot
more. They themselves, or their proteges, are represented in almost every
organization you see on the left. They funded many other less important
organizations, which will be included in an upcoming 'Rockefeller family
timeline'. Another major influence appears to be the Rothschild family. Of
course, just as the Rockefellers, this has been repeated endlessly, but I
personally had a hard time finding any indisputable evidence that backs up
this claim. A lot of research still needs to be done, but here's what I
know for sure: Today's chairman of Le Cercle has been a 15 year Rothschild
veteran. A previous chairman of Le Cercle had a very dubious father who
was one of the most important (hidden) Jews to have built up the state of
Israel, side by side with the Rothschilds.
The chairman of The European Institute is also a 15 year
Rothschild veteran, again the only person of the board directly involved with
the Rothschilds. The Rothschild Foundation is one the prime sponsors of the 1001
Club-affiliated Club 21, which funds and manages the so called 'Peace Parks'
Foundation. On the board of directors of the Club 21 sits a Rothschild director,
who seems to be some kind of descended of a former Rothschild associate / Shell
chairman. The foundation of the chairman of the European Institute is involved
with this club to a lesser extent. The same goes for the Rockefellers by the
way. Other interesting coincidences I noticed is the fact that the only Brit I
have come across that has been invited to the Bohemian Grove camp Mandalay is a
representative of the Rothschild and Murdoch interests [update: found more. They
all revolve around the major City of London interests and the Royal family].
Rupert Murdoch and Jacob de Rothschild are close friends. The only Brit I found
that has been invited to the Sun Valley meetings turned out to be another very
close associate of Jacob the Rothschild. Jacob de Rothschild has been the
president of the London-based Institute for Jewish Policy Research and still is
it's honorary president. The exact extent of the influence of the institute I do
not know. All I know is that it has been described as 'very influential', that
until recently it used to be called the 'Institute for Jewish Affairs', that it
is closely affiliated with Chatham House (RIIA), and that the Israeli ambassador
pays them a visit once in a while. Another interesting fact is that the
Rothschild Foundation donated the money to build the Israeli Supreme Court and
the Knesset. Coincidentally, the Supreme Court has a large pyramid with an eye
sticking through its roof. What is a very interesting about the Rothschilds is
that they indeed seem to do almost everything through a front man. But
personally, I have no reason to believe they cannot be touched. For example, in
1981 Mitterrand came to power and immediately nationalized the Rothschild bank.
Guy de Rothschild (and Le Cercle, which had been trying to prevent Mitterrand
from coming to power) wasn't very happy about that. From that time on, Guy de
Rothschild started focusing on his main U.S. company, New Court (now Rothschild
Inc.), which was located in Rockefeller Center at the time. There are other
indications that the Rothschilds are very influential, but not the ultimate
'puppet masters'. For instance, some of them were captured or killed by the
nazis. Others successfully fled. In 1996, Amschel Rothschild was found dead in
Paris, just after he was selected to take over the Paris branch of the family.
It's a very strange affair and although his aunt and closest friends vehemently
denied he was anything near depressed, nobody objected when the death was
labeled a suicide. Looking at some of the statements of the Paris investigators
there's every indication that Amschel was murdered. It doesn't seem to make much
sense that his own family did it. Then they wouldn't have appointed him in the
first place. So who was responsible? One other interesting tidbit that actually
shows their influence again is the fact that Bill Clinton allowed Sir Evelyn de
Rothschild to spent his wedding night in the White House! I still need to do a
lot of research on this family before I can post a 'Rothschild family timeline'
with all the documentation, but what has been written above is completely
documented.
One thing that often seems to pop up is the close relationship
between the British Royal family and the Rothschild family. If the Rockefellers
mainly represent the American interests, the Rothschilds mainly the Zionist
interests, then the Royal family is the spider in the British interests.
:
These three important institutions have absorbed the leadership
(or the founders) of all the organizations below it. In all of these high-level
discussion groups the Royal family members aren't just figureheads. It has been
stated repeatedly that the Royal family has made large investments in many of
the largest British multinationals. This may not be proven, but it's actually
quite understandable when you have such a huge amount of money laying around.
Again, the British royal family members don't seem to be the ultimate 'puppet
masters'. Prince Philip and his son Charles have very different personalities.
Lord Louis Mountbatten, who was killed by an 'IRA bomb' in 1979, seems to have
been assassinated by some right-wing Le Cercle-like interest. Two suspects were
arrested even before the bomb went off, one of them was later convicted of the
murder and sentenced to life. According to Diana's butler, the Queen mother
warned him after Diana's death: "Nobody, Paul has been as close to a member
of my family as you have. There are powers at work in this country about which
we have no knowledge." Who or what was she referring to when she advised
Paul to lay low?
Another institute with a lot of power is the Vatican. The Knights
of Malta, Opus Dei, and the Jesuits are all operating from out of the the
Vatican and are heavily involved with the intelligence agencies of the West. I
found many of them in the secret intelligence group Le Cercle. Especially the
Order of Malta has a very close relationship with the Monarchs of Europe. It's
worldwide head, Andrew Bertie is a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II and attends many
of the royal weddings. The full influence of these organizations isn't known,
but a large amount of the Knights of Malta and Opus Dei figures have been
involved in serious scandals over the years. The Sovereign Military Order of
Malta (SMOM) is a descendent of the Knights Hospitaller, the organization to
which many of the Templar assets were transferred. It's Protestant version is
the Order of St. John, headed by Queen Elizabeth II, which is far less
controversial. These two groups are the main interests represented at Le Cercle,
which I rate among the most secret organizations we know of today. At least in
recent times, the Vatican seems to be the underdog.
You also have some royal and industrial families in mainland Europe that seem
to have quite a bit of influence on the globalization process.
By the way, did you know that the Ordo Draconis is actually a real
organization with royal and noble families in it? You don't have to believe it
from some second hand source, just visit the website from the royal house of
Stewart and look at their European
Council of Princes section. You'll find a page about their involvement in
the Ordo Draconis. And did you know that they believe in so called 'dragon
genes'? I wrote a little bit about it here, which is a small elaboration on statements that were
made in the article on Le Cercle.
So, as you can see, there's plenty of stuff to investigate. This
introduction page is only meant to give an idea of where my personal research is
going. Below you can find the names of some of the more important institutions
people need to be aware of. Some of them are very secretive. Others are quite
well-known, although knowledge usually doesn't extent beyond the name itself. In
time, every single organization will be discussed on this site (okay, that might
be a bit too ambitious). I left out many of the smaller, regional ones. If you
start adding all the world's think tanks and meeting clubs, the list will be at
least 5 times as long. And why bother writing them down when most of their
chairmen and presidents can be found in maybe a handful of the most important
institutions below?
Existence proven
It's hard to categorize a lot of the institutions below, because
you don't always know who's primary purpose they serve. Generally, I tend to
look at the country the institute was founded in and who's heading it. As for
America, keep in mind that the Carnegie, Rockefeller, Ford, and other
foundations have funded a huge amount of very influential non-governmental think
tanks. The Brookings Institution, the Aspen Institute, the Foreign Policy
Association, and the RAND Corporation are examples of this.

Existence not proven
(from
my own viewpoint)
Bormann Organization / Group
Martin Bormann was Hitler's most trusted aide
and has never been captured. Some believe he oversaw the transfer of most
of the Nazi capital into some 750 corporations in Germany, South-America,
and the U.S. He received help from someone like Allen Dulles (SMOM, OSS
chief, Pilgrims Society member, later CIA director). The purpose was to
establish a future 4th Reich. It's quite obvious that this is linked with
the Ratlines and the recruitment of Nazi general Reinhard Gehlen in the
aftermath of WWII. I suggest you check Paul Manning's 1981 book 'Martin Bormann: Nazi in Exile' and the person who took over his work, Dave Emory. It seems that
Paul Manning and his publisher have been punished severely for putting out
the book.
Chateau des Amerois
The castle was owned by Prince Philipp von
Saxe-Coburg-Gotha and later by the Solvay family. The Solvay family is one
of the leading industrial families of Europe (producer of medicines,
plastics, and chemicals like fluor). In their 1996 book, Fritz Springmeier
and Cisco Wheeler (very unsure what to think of their information)
referred to it as the 'Mothers of Darkness castle'. This obscure castle
does indeed exist and has been named in late 1996 and early 1997 by at
least one 'X' survivor of the Dutroux affair as a place where nasty things
happened. Different witnesses who described child torture, child rape,
child molestation, child hunting, and child murder have been declared
'mad', but only after all the original investigators were suddenly
replaced. There were also multiple claims of sex parties that were held in
different castles. It didn't matter that the witness accounts included
many verifiable corroborative details and helped solve a couple of
previous child murders. The cover up was so obvious that 300,000 Belgiums
went to the streets to protest against the way the investigation was
conducted. At least 3 families of the victims have been convinced there is
a massive cover up and at least 20 crucial witness have 'committed
suicide'. It seems to be very hard to get access to these X-files. Maybe
that has to do with the fact that many senior officials have been named as
participants in the above crimes, including members of the royal family
and at least one former European Commissioner (name hasn't been made
public). At the moment, I don't see how Springmeier or Wheeler could have
gained access to these secret hearings, but we'll see where this story
goes in the future.
Important update:
I found quite a bit of Belgian individuals who have been
accused in 1999 of having been involved in drug & child trafficking.
The person who gave the list committed suicide within a year. After doing
a small background check it turns out that some of them have conections
to, or are members of, the Trilateral Commission, the European Round
Table, the leadership of Le Cercle, important individuals of Bilderberg,
and the Russian mafia. Solvay SA again played a leading role, just as 2
royal families. And let's not forget individuals closely involved in
investigating the Dutroux affair.
Then there is one person who supposedly was named in the
Dutroux X-files. After looking up the few available details about this
person, it turns out that he was probably a Jesuit. Persons with the same
(quite unusual) surname appear on the boards of Solvay SA (not again!),
the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, Coca-Cola
Enterprises Belgium, and Banque Privée Edmond de Rothschild - Genève.
Another individual from the past with this surname was head of the Steel
Division of the UN European Economic Commission in 1952. He brought Henri
Rieben in contact with Jean Monnet, both founders of the European
movement. And yet another individual of the past with this surname was a
member of the 'Orde Souverain et Militaire du Temple de
Jerusalem'.
Because I know very little about this subject and much of
it is written in French (and Dutch) it will take a lot of time before I
might write an article about it. I didn't mention the names, because I
first want to verify some details (how the families fit together and what
the source of some of the information is).
Just keep in mind that Europe is continent waiting to be
explored.
Another update:
It is now clear to me that all the aspects of the
'globalist conspiracy' can be found in Belgium. Expect loads of fireworks
in the future. It's beyond shocking.
Club of the Isles
Could easily be the 1001 Club or possibly the
Multinational Chairman's Group, because they share many of the same
interests. Executive Intelligence Review mentioned it a couple of times. I
asked them about the club, but they don't seem to have that much
additional info either.
Committee of 26
This group is mentioned in Simon Regan's book 'Who killed
Diana?'. The author was informed about this group through his intelligence
contacts, including the one who advised him to look into Le Cercle. I
quote from his book: "My own security contacts, including the
Baroness, had also told me about a highly mysterious organization called
the Committee of 26, which is apparently based in Bristol, in England?s
West Country. I have never heard of this and can find no other official
reference in any file. But it is apparently a super-secret "liaison desk"
between the highest echelons of British and American agencies and has the
"co-operation" of the French. I was told it was "Old Guard" and worked
unilaterally. That is, it was a kind of uncontrolled "super-agency" which
answered to no one. I cannot show that this agency even exists... I trust
the Baroness, but she was unable to give me any feasible further "chapter
and verse." David Icke in his book 'The Biggest Secret' wrote:
"Why Bristol? It is a former Knights Templar port and its name has evolved
from Barati, the Phoenician goddess. It just so happens that an elite unit
of British Intelligence called the Committee of 26 is based there and they
use the runway at the British Aerospace complex to fly British and foreign
agents in and out of the country... In that period in the 1980s, not only
in Bristol, there were strange deaths galore of people at the cutting edge
of development in the ?defence? industries. "
Committee of 300
The group former MI6 agent John Coleman talked about back
in 1992. It's very interesting if you compare the name with the 'Committee
of 26' from totally different sources. I read chunks of the book, looking
for evidence of its existence, but couldn't find it. I have organized the
list of names (google's recent spelling correction is a god sent) and have
been able to copy a significant amount of biographies from prominent and
less-prominent members from other hidden organizations John Coleman has
never talked about. I guess that's a good thing, but as I just said, this
doesn't prove anything. I also have trouble believing 'the Olympians'
control everything from China to South-Africa. Looking at the names, it's
just like all the other hidden organizations, i.e. a high level discussion
group.
Group 13 & I3
These two are said to be assassination teams from Britain
and the U.S. Although there is no conclusive evidence, I am quite certain
that both exist. You can find some information about Britain's Group 13
here and some
information about the NSA's I3 here. The supposed head
of Group 13 turned out to be someone who's background cannot be fully
traced, not even by the British Parliament. This person and his allies
also infiltrated the boards of many arms companies. When a company, like
Astra, isn't useful anymore, they just give themselves huge salaries and
run the company into the ground.
Knight's Templar (CIA)
In his 1977 book 'The Night Watch', former CIA officer
David Atlee Phillips wrote on page 123: "...that small circle of
well-bred, highly educated adventurers who were known to some in the CIA
as the 'Knights Templars' - Allen Dulles, Frank Wisner, Kermit Roosevelt,
Tracey Barnes, Dick Bissell, and kindred spirits. Other CIA veterans have
confirmed the existence of similar associations within the agency, with
names like the "Century group" and the "Gold Key group". The first
three have been known members of Le Cercle. Of the first two we know they
were involved in recruiting Nazis in the wake of WWII. Kermit Roosevelt
helped de Marenches in setting up the Safari Club and led Operation Ajax
which brought the Shah to power. I find it very interesting all these
small hints to Templar organizations within intelligence groups as Le
Cercle, the Committee of 26, and now the CIA.
Tavistock Network
Said to be a worldwide mind-control network. Haven't
studied it and don't really have an opinion about it either. The Tavistock
Institute is located in London. You saw it in July 2005 when a bomb on a
London bus splattered blood and debris on its facade. John Coleman talked
about it. Kay Griggs also mentioned it.
The Brotherhood / The Firm
Mentioned by Kay Griggs, wife of marine colonel George
Griggs. According to Kay, her husband usually referred to the loose
network he was part of as 'the Brotherhood' or 'the Firm'. She was also
talking about a Zionist clique centered in New York City, which had the
unofficial name 'the Joint'. Kay describes how there is a network of
transnational criminals involved in all kinds of nasty stuff. This
includes drug running, illegal arms trade, sexual perversion, mind
control, assassinations, and the conducting of terrorism when deemed
necessary. A short article with all the names she mentioned will be put up
on this site. You can find the full 8-hour video here.
Did you notice that almost every single group we don't
know that much about is related to intelligence? We can only guess how
much more has been hidden from the public completely.
Part 2, UFO organizations
If someone thinks the UFO phenomenon is a non-issue, I
suggest you take a look at some of the mainstream newspaper articles I
gathered here. Whatever it is,
the phenomenon is real and it is very likely that secret institutions have
been set up to study it.
IPU
IPU stands for the Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit, which,
supposedly, was set up after the February 1942 Battle of Los Angeles
incident. In a 1980 document released through a FOIA request, the
Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit was part of the Scientific and Technical
Branch of the Counterintelligence Directorate. It was dissolved during the
late 1950?s and allegedly never reactivated. Their files were surrendered
to the Air Force Office of Special Investigations (AFOSI). You can find
scanned documents and a lot of additional info on Majesticdocuments.com.
MJ-12
MJ-12 is said to be a highly secret intelligence agency
set up for the purpose of investigating the UFO phenomenon. At the same
time they kept all the information from the public. The project was
started after the July 1947 UFO wave, followed by a crash in Roswell.
Together with the birth of MJ-12 the National Security State was born.
Almost anyone who has claimed to have inside information on the group has
said that MJ-12 still exists today, although it changes its name once in a
while. Many have also added that the group has been privatized, which is a
subject that sounds very familiar. There is a large amount of
documentation on Majestic 12, although these documents won't be accepted,
simply because they are too extraordinary to believe. According to Stanton
Friedman, most of the later documents are fake, but the earlier ones stand
up to careful scrutiny. You can find scanned documents and a lot of
additional info on Majesticdocuments.com.
It is said that certain JASON studies have been conducted for MJ-12. The
existence of the JASON Group is beyond dispute and an article about them
will appear soon.
Then there are some societies I won't go
into, because they are too 'far out' when there is a complete lack of any
evidence they exist. If you're interested in Tamar, Moriah, the Cult of
the Serpent, the Grand Druid Council, the Order of the Quest, the Keepers
of the Dawn, or something similar like that, I suggest you do an internet
search. I also skipped the Priory the Sion, because I haven't got a clue
what to believe about it.

How FEMA Blocked Airboats
"Not because federal officials
provided guidance. Instead,
a major
from the Wildlife Service ran the operation".
Not because of federal officials but in spite of them, and not
because of Dub Bush-whacker(American Airboats is in Texas
on I-10 near the Texas border with Louisiana and I-10 passes
through New Orleans). Orange, Texas, was later hit dead on
by the second major hurricane, Rita.
And not because of Jeb Bush-whacker, governor of Florida,
who could have told his brother to back off his flakey green
hyped up chickenhawk FEMA airboat Bush Whackers "stuck
on stupid", but didn't. Maybe Dick and Dub and Jeb were
selling the $16 a gallon gasoline FEMA made airboaters
buy? Or, the worse the better until Dub's messianic photo
op?
What I can find on the internet makes it sound as if Cat 5 of
Tennessee contracted all the Katrina airboat volunteers in
the country,"seeking 300 airboats...700 boats on standby",
a thousand airboats, for HSA/FEMA, but that would be
tantamount to preventing as many airboats as possible
from coming, since FEMA was blocking airboats by two
fuel constraints. FEMA rules required each airboat operator
to buy a huge, expensive five hundred gallon tank and then
fill it with $8000 worth of fuel(then current Gulf Coast prices)
or waste fuel towing five hundred gallons of fuel plus their
airboats all the way from Florida, Georgia, Ohio, Tennessee,
places airboats came from. Then, FEMA Bushwhacked airboats
again if they did not fill their tanks at home before leaving--
FEMA turned back fuel tanker trucks from Mississippi and
Louisiana! And, if an airboat operator ran that gauntlet, he
was out as much as $8000 plus the cost of an ad hoc, soon to
be useless dedicated 500 gallon fuel storage tank.

FEMA called in a company that owns and operates a fleet of air
boats, to aide with the search and recovery of citizens trying to
survive the disaster and who are still in their homes, etc. A friend
of mine (from Arkansas) is one of the owner/operators of an air boat in
that fleet. He responded to FEMA’s request and went down to assist, all
at his own expense. When there, he reported to a FEMA manager or
supervisor who told him, and I quote: ”We need your assistance and can
use your help every day, there’s a lot of folks who have not been
found. But, you will have to pay[Dick and Dub $16 a gallon] for
your own gasoline for your air boat.”
The
cost of gasoline for that air boat, for each day, amounts to
approximately $550.00 per day, minimum. With the current gasoline
crisis, it could cost considerably more, up to $600 - $700 per day.
This
young man volunteered his time AND his boat to help - and was then told
by FEMA that he would have to pay, additionally, out of his own pocket,
all of the costs for his gasoline - to find the people who were in
flooded homes across the entire flooded area in the City of New
Orleans, where FEMA is assigned.
This young man doesn’t have
the money to donate his costs for gasoline for FEMA’s project, so,
guess where he is right now: yup, on the way back to Arkansas.

As a flooded New Orleans sinks further into despair, up to 500 Florida
airboat pilots have volunteered to rescue Hurricane Katrina victims,
transport relief workers and ferry supplies.
But they aren't being allowed in. And they're growing
frustrated.
"We cannot get deployed to save our behinds," said Robert Dummett,
state coordinator of the Florida Airboat Association.
He said the pilots, who range from commercial airboat operators to
weekend pleasure boaters, "are physically sick, watching the New
Orleans coverage and knowing that the resources to help these poor
people is sitting right in our driveways."
On standby since Monday, the pilots -- many from Central Florida
--
have spent thousands of their own dollars stocking their boats and
swamp buggies with food, water, medical supplies and fuel.
But the Federal Emergency Management Agency will not authorize the
airboaters to enter New Orleans. Without that permission, they would be
subject to arrest and would not receive security and support services.
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/state/orl-18canerail0305sep03,0,5461523.story?coll=orl-news-headlines-state
One hundred Florida airboaters were on their way to rescue disaster
victims Friday after federal officials finally gave the group the
official go-ahead.
As many as 500 airboat pilots from the state have volunteered to
help, but the Federal Emergency Management Agency had refused to
authorize the volunteers to enter New Orleans. Without that
permission, they would have been subject to arrest and would not
receive security and support services.
The initial 100 airboaters will work under the direction of the
U.S.
Coast Guard to evacuate more than 6,000 people marooned on their
rooftops in Chalmette, La., a suburb of New Orleans.
"Nobody has been there to help these people in Chalmette since the
hurricane hit," said Robert Dummett, coordinator for the Florida
Airboat Citizen Emergency Response Team, who enlisted the help of
congressmen to allow the rescue effort to proceed. "These people are
stranded."
More Florida airboaters are lined up to help when the first wave of
volunteers finishes its mission. The boaters have been instructed to
carry enough fuel, water, food and other supplies to last 72 hours, and
they have already had to purchase about 500 gallons of fuel each with
their own money.
'We've watched all these people on TV we know we can help, and it
has been so frustrating not to be able to do something.'
Lauren Brown spokeswoman for the Florida Airboat Association
http://www.txcn.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/texassouthwest/txcn/stories/090405dntexkatsixdays.2e1da9c.html
Ray Cone, a
volunteer who brought his airboat from Gainesville, Fla.
Saturday was the first day that National Guard troops began arriving
in Chalmette. The city of Vancouver, in Canada, sent its firefighters
to help. The Texas Department of Parks and Wildlife sent 50 boats and
55 game wardens.
Thomas Stone, the chief of the Chalmette Fire Department, said he
was ashamed by the federal government's slow response.
"We had people from Canada here before the federal government got
here," Chief Stone said. "God help us if a terrorist attack occurs."
The St. Bernard Parish president was so angry at the response that
he cursed at federal officials several times during an impromptu news
conference.
"These bastards can take care of Iraq but they can't take care of
their own ... people," said Henry J. Rodriguez Jr.
Mr. Rodriguez said there was never widespread looting in his
parish: "We gave orders that looters will be shot, and we don't care
who they are."

A
Port St. Lucie letter carrier shocked his bosses Tuesday when he turned
up on National Public Radio — and said he was more than 750 miles away.
Jim Osborne, 47, was scheduled to report to the Orange Avenue post
office in Fort Pierce but ended up on his airboat in the flooded
streets of New Orleans, searching for survivors of Hurricane Katrina.
After hearing last week about the need for
search and rescue boats there, Osborne packed up a camper, his airboat
and $500 worth of fuel, said his girlfriend, Veronica Flores. About 3
a.m. Friday, he left home with his son and two friends, and headed to
Baton Rouge, La., where he hoped to meet up with other boaters and
coordinate rescue efforts.
"He told me, 'I just want to save one child up there and it would
make my day,' " Flores said.
First, he'd have to cut through red tape.
From Osborne's periodic phone calls home, Flores learned that he
found a staging area in Louisiana Sunday, but emergency officials
didn't know where to send him. After waiting around a day, he was
paired with a rookie cop from New Orleans, an immigration agent from
Ohio and an NPR reporter
When Osborne arrived in New Orleans, he said, he
was one of only a few airboaters in the city. On Tuesday, he told
Flores there were more than 300, from Texas, Arkansas and as far away
as Pennsylvania.
Osborne, a 20-year veteran of the postal service, had taken a few
vacation days late last week, but was scheduled to return Tuesday to
his regular route, delivering mail in Fort Pierce. Instead, he asked
Flores to call an automated phone line at the postal service,
requesting time off without pay.

NEW ORLEANS —"Not a day
has gone by that we haven't taken somebody out," said Dale
Dorman, an airboat enthusiast from Alpharetta, Ga. He said has been
going out on searches for eight days and is "staying 'til it's done."
Airboats can skim across inches of water and even patches of pavement.
They are well suited for the search for victims in the half of the city
still covered with water, nearly two weeks after Katrina struck.
On Saturday, searchers took boats into Edgewood Park, a neighborhood of
small frame houses near Interstate 10.
Most of the pilots of the airboats, often called "swamp buggies," are
volunteers from the Everglades, and the bayous, marshes and other
wetlands of the South
Sherald 1/8CQ3/8 and Craig Daniels,
brothers from the southwestern Florida island of Chokoloskee, normally
take tourists on Everglades nature tours.
Police from around the country provide security on the boats.
On
the Daniels brothers' boat, the guards were two women sheriff's
deputies from Bernalillo County, N.M., who carried AR-15 rifles, the
civilian version of the military's M-16 assault rifle.
Several airboat pilots have been taken for cleansing and treatment
after falling into the floodwaters, which health officials say is laced
with dangerous bacteria and pollutants.
It's a tough job, said Dick Douse, who owns an airboat tour business in
West Palm Beach, Fla.
On Canal Street, what had been the launching point for airboats on
Friday was dry pavement on Saturday. A corpse floated near Canal
Street, just blocks from downtown and the French Quarter.
"We've got one down there tied off on a light pole," said an airboat
pilot from the Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Agency.

With the flooding in the affected areas hampering rescue and relief
efforts, Tennessee-based Cat 5 Disaster Services, a company that has
contracts with the federal, state and county governments, put out a
call for airboat pilots to help with search and rescue, supply runs and
law enforcement patrols. They were seeking 300 airboats to help with
relief efforts. According to Michael Linton, event manager with the
company, by early Monday evening they had 700 boats on standby. They do
not need any more crews, said Linton.
Linton said they will be
working in all three of the most affected states, but were waiting for
more direction from emergency officials before sending out the crews,
which come from Texas to Florida, even as far as Michigan. They must
set up staging points, map out safe routes and determine where the need
is greatest.
According to Linton, each airboat and captain must
be Coast Guard-licensed, with liability insurance. They must also be
well equipped with food, water, fuel and other supplies for an extended
stay.
There has been no official word yet from emergency
management personnel in Louisiana, Alabama or Mississippi about the
need for airboats.
The Florida airboat volunteers are being
coordinated with help from the trade publication Airboat World, which
is posting updates on its Web site, and Florida Airboat Association,
although neither is officially associated with the contracted company.
Lauren
Brown, spokeswoman with the state association, said the organization
had been inundated with calls from airboat pilots around the state
trying to find out how they could help.
Terri Latner, editor of
Airboat World, said that airboats are versatile craft that would be
useful in relief efforts, able to travel over shallower water than
regular boats, even on land. With no underwater propeller, the airboats
can more easily dodge underwater debris as well.
Locally, several
airboat companies, usually occupied with ferrying tourists, are on
standby for word of where they are needed. Frustrated by a lack of
information, they wait for the go-ahead to get on the road.
Brent Sloan, owner of Big Toho Airboat Rides in Kissimmee, will be
working with Cat5. He is on standby.
“From
what I’ve seen on TV and heard, it’s devastating,” said Sloan. “I’ll
probably be running equipment to places it’s needed. I’ll be doing
search and rescue, although if they don’t call soon there won’t be
anything to search for.”
Chris Costa, owner of Glades Adventures
High Performance Airboat Tours in St. Cloud, is also prepared to send
out one or two of his boats, effectively shutting down his business.
However, Costa, who has been in contact with the Florida Airboat
Association, said he is also waiting for word of when he can leave and
where he is needed.
Boggy Creek Airboat Rides owner Chris Long
said he has called Cat5 and received confirmation that no more airboats
were needed. However, he stands ready to help if more Coast
Guard-licensed airboats and pilots are required.

County dive team chief returns after week of
airboat recovery work
By MATT SANCTIS
The exhaustion was obvious even in Brian Edwards' voice as he spoke
of
the week he spent in New Orleans with his airboat, churning through
murky, stinking waterways that used to serve as the city's downtown
streets.
Edwards, who works in the Sandusky County, Ohio, Tax Map Office,
also leads
the Sandusky County Dive Team. Edwards returned from New Orleans
Wednesday after spending the past week helping evacuate flood victims
from downtown New Orleans in his airboat(the
airboat is usually used for ice rescues here in Ohio).
Responding to requests for help ONLINE from New Orleans emergency
personnel, Edwards packed 72 hours' worth of food and fuel and headed
south to Louisiana where he met up with other airboat rescuers from
Florida.
They were quickly placed under the direction of the Louisiana Fish
and Wildlife Service.
Every morning, Edwards left at 6 a.m. with a convoy of eight other
boats and headed downtown, where victims were herded onto his boat and
taken to recovery points for evacuation.
In a little more than six days, Edwards helped evacuate three
downtown
hospitals and a government building that held more than 200 Louisiana
law enforcement officers.
The boats returned home every night at dusk for repairs and
cleaning,
but crews didn't have long to rest before returning to work.
The airboats could only carry five or six victims at a time, so
although the boats could get to the victims quickly, repeated trips
were necessary. Once at the recovery points, the victims were loaded
onto buses and sent to Texas.
Edwards said the rescue operation eventually got surprisingly
smooth,
but not because federal officials provided guidance. Instead, a major
from the Wildlife Service ran the operation, and the local emergency
crews learned how to get to the victims by a process of trial and error.
"It was well-organized because we organized it," Edwards said.
By the end of the week, fresh volunteers from around the country
began
pouring into the city, but so many people arrived to help "they were
falling all over each other," Edwards said. The major who had conducted
the operation finally told the airboat volunteers they needed to go
home and rest. Crews from Texas and Tennessee were taking over their
spots.

Local Air Boaters Frustrated That They Couldn’t Help In Louisiana
POSTED: 6:59 am EDT September 8, 2005, WFTV
COCOA, Fla. -- Some
local air boaters are among the Katrina recovery volunteers who feel
they weren't allowed to help as much as they could have. When Al
and Ann Ridgeway of Cocoa arrived in Louisiana with a permit to use
their airboat for rescues, they got the run around. The couple received
conflicting directions and were not allowed to enter certain areas
because authorities heard some air boaters were using fake search
permits[probably to get past FEMA nuisance posse, not for real world
use! -Bob]. Finally, they gave up."The biggest shame of it is, we have
an airboat that would carry a lot of people out of there," Al Ridgeway
said.

Project for the Exposure of Hidden Institutions (PEHI)
The purpose of the Project for the Exposure of Hidden Institutions
(PEHI) is to put together the entire spectrum of hidden organizations and secret
societies. Most of you who visit this site have probably heard of the more
well-known 'secret societies' like the Council on Foreign Relations, the
Bohemian Grove, and the Skull & Bones student society. Two other well known
'secret societies' are Bilderberg and the Trilateral Commission. The thing is,
when you really research these institutes you find that members often disagree
with each other, there's considerable infighting, and most members don't seem to
be privy to any information from the black and deep black programs. This is the
reason I always wondered how people went from the above organizations straight
to the very undefined concept of the 'Illuminati'. Of course, I can see
something very strange is going on. For some reason it's possible to suppress
information about humanities past, the UFO
phenomenon, alternative energy, the supernatural, high profile
assassinations, or the true cause of many terrorist attacks. Rather than
focusing on one tiny subject, PEHI will attempt to answer how all the above is
possible and which persons and institutes could be responsible for it.
This site will be fundamentally different than most. We don't need
another rewrite combined with another religiously biased opinion, which doesn't
stroke with any of the evidence. We need names of institutions, names of
members, and as much background information about both as possible. We need
organized digital membership lists in which all this information is available
for any purpose at any time. Biographies should be included and must be updated
continually in all of these lists as new information becomes available. I can
already guarantee you that when this is done on all the globalist societies, one
by one, we will see patterns in the leadership and we can pick out those people
that need to be investigated still further. If there are any 'puppet masters'
(and I'm not so sure about that at all), this is the only way to pick them out
and to have a rock solid foundation of research no one can dispute.
General oversight
At this introduction page I will give you an idea of what I'm working on at
the moment. It's not meant to back up every claim with a list of sources. This
is something that will be done at the 'in depth' section of the website.
On the left I have organized a lot of the most influential
privately funded discussion forums in the world. Already it is clear that
a few interests dominate the scene. The first one is the infamous
Rockefeller family. This family played a major role in setting up and / or
maintaining most of the American-based institutions: the Americas Society,
the Asia Society, the Japan Society, the CFR, and the Trilateral
Commission. As far as I know, they also funded the Atlantic Institute for
International Affairs and the Williamsburg Meetings, and probably a lot
more. They themselves, or their proteges, are represented in almost every
organization you see on the left. They funded many other less important
organizations, which will be included in an upcoming 'Rockefeller family
timeline'. Another major influence appears to be the Rothschild family. Of
course, just as the Rockefellers, this has been repeated endlessly, but I
personally had a hard time finding any indisputable evidence that backs up
this claim. A lot of research still needs to be done, but here's what I
know for sure: Today's chairman of Le Cercle has been a 15 year Rothschild
veteran. A previous chairman of Le Cercle had a very dubious father who
was one of the most important (hidden) Jews to have built up the state of
Israel, side by side with the Rothschilds.
The chairman of The European Institute is also a 15 year
Rothschild veteran, again the only person of the board directly involved with
the Rothschilds. The Rothschild Foundation is one the prime sponsors of the 1001
Club-affiliated Club 21, which funds and manages the so called 'Peace Parks'
Foundation. On the board of directors of the Club 21 sits a Rothschild director,
who seems to be some kind of descended of a former Rothschild associate / Shell
chairman. The foundation of the chairman of the European Institute is involved
with this club to a lesser extent. The same goes for the Rockefellers by the
way. Other interesting coincidences I noticed is the fact that the only Brit I
have come across that has been invited to the Bohemian Grove camp Mandalay is a
representative of the Rothschild and Murdoch interests [update: found more. They
all revolve around the major City of London interests and the Royal family].
Rupert Murdoch and Jacob de Rothschild are close friends. The only Brit I found
that has been invited to the Sun Valley meetings turned out to be another very
close associate of Jacob the Rothschild. Jacob de Rothschild has been the
president of the London-based Institute for Jewish Policy Research and still is
it's honorary president. The exact extent of the influence of the institute I do
not know. All I know is that it has been described as 'very influential', that
until recently it used to be called the 'Institute for Jewish Affairs', that it
is closely affiliated with Chatham House (RIIA), and that the Israeli ambassador
pays them a visit once in a while. Another interesting fact is that the
Rothschild Foundation donated the money to build the Israeli Supreme Court and
the Knesset. Coincidentally, the Supreme Court has a large pyramid with an eye
sticking through its roof. What is a very interesting about the Rothschilds is
that they indeed seem to do almost everything through a front man. But
personally, I have no reason to believe they cannot be touched. For example, in
1981 Mitterrand came to power and immediately nationalized the Rothschild bank.
Guy de Rothschild (and Le Cercle, which had been trying to prevent Mitterrand
from coming to power) wasn't very happy about that. From that time on, Guy de
Rothschild started focusing on his main U.S. company, New Court (now Rothschild
Inc.), which was located in Rockefeller Center at the time. There are other
indications that the Rothschilds are very influential, but not the ultimate
'puppet masters'. For instance, some of them were captured or killed by the
nazis. Others successfully fled. In 1996, Amschel Rothschild was found dead in
Paris, just after he was selected to take over the Paris branch of the family.
It's a very strange affair and although his aunt and closest friends vehemently
denied he was anything near depressed, nobody objected when the death was
labeled a suicide. Looking at some of the statements of the Paris investigators
there's every indication that Amschel was murdered. It doesn't seem to make much
sense that his own family did it. Then they wouldn't have appointed him in the
first place. So who was responsible? One other interesting tidbit that actually
shows their influence again is the fact that Bill Clinton allowed Sir Evelyn de
Rothschild to spent his wedding night in the White House! I still need to do a
lot of research on this family before I can post a 'Rothschild family timeline'
with all the documentation, but what has been written above is completely
documented.
One thing that often seems to pop up is the close relationship
between the British Royal family and the Rothschild family. If the Rockefellers
mainly represent the American interests, the Rothschilds mainly the Zionist
interests, then the Royal family is the spider in the British interests.
:
These three important institutions have absorbed the leadership
(or the founders) of all the organizations below it. In all of these high-level
discussion groups the Royal family members aren't just figureheads. It has been
stated repeatedly that the Royal family has made large investments in many of
the largest British multinationals. This may not be proven, but it's actually
quite understandable when you have such a huge amount of money laying around.
Again, the British royal family members don't seem to be the ultimate 'puppet
masters'. Prince Philip and his son Charles have very different personalities.
Lord Louis Mountbatten, who was killed by an 'IRA bomb' in 1979, seems to have
been assassinated by some right-wing Le Cercle-like interest. Two suspects were
arrested even before the bomb went off, one of them was later convicted of the
murder and sentenced to life. According to Diana's butler, the Queen mother
warned him after Diana's death: "Nobody, Paul has been as close to a member
of my family as you have. There are powers at work in this country about which
we have no knowledge." Who or what was she referring to when she advised
Paul to lay low?
Another institute with a lot of power is the Vatican. The Knights
of Malta, Opus Dei, and the Jesuits are all operating from out of the the
Vatican and are heavily involved with the intelligence agencies of the West. I
found many of them in the secret intelligence group Le Cercle. Especially the
Order of Malta has a very close relationship with the Monarchs of Europe. It's
worldwide head, Andrew Bertie is a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II and attends many
of the royal weddings. The full influence of these organizations isn't known,
but a large amount of the Knights of Malta and Opus Dei figures have been
involved in serious scandals over the years. The Sovereign Military Order of
Malta (SMOM) is a descendent of the Knights Hospitaller, the organization to
which many of the Templar assets were transferred. It's Protestant version is
the Order of St. John, headed by Queen Elizabeth II, which is far less
controversial. These two groups are the main interests represented at Le Cercle,
which I rate among the most secret organizations we know of today. At least in
recent times, the Vatican seems to be the underdog.
You also have some royal and industrial families in mainland Europe that seem
to have quite a bit of influence on the globalization process.
By the way, did you know that the Ordo Draconis is actually a real
organization with royal and noble families in it? You don't have to believe it
from some second hand source, just visit the website from the royal house of
Stewart and look at their European
Council of Princes section. You'll find a page about their involvement in
the Ordo Draconis. And did you know that they believe in so called 'dragon
genes'? I wrote a little bit about it here, which is a small elaboration on statements that were
made in the article on Le Cercle.
So, as you can see, there's plenty of stuff to investigate. This
introduction page is only meant to give an idea of where my personal research is
going. Below you can find the names of some of the more important institutions
people need to be aware of. Some of them are very secretive. Others are quite
well-known, although knowledge usually doesn't extent beyond the name itself. In
time, every single organization will be discussed on this site (okay, that might
be a bit too ambitious). I left out many of the smaller, regional ones. If you
start adding all the world's think tanks and meeting clubs, the list will be at
least 5 times as long. And why bother writing them down when most of their
chairmen and presidents can be found in maybe a handful of the most important
institutions below?
Existence proven
It's hard to categorize a lot of the institutions below, because
you don't always know who's primary purpose they serve. Generally, I tend to
look at the country the institute was founded in and who's heading it. As for
America, keep in mind that the Carnegie, Rockefeller, Ford, and other
foundations have funded a huge amount of very influential non-governmental think
tanks. The Brookings Institution, the Aspen Institute, the Foreign Policy
Association, and the RAND Corporation are examples of this.

Existence not proven
(from
my own viewpoint)
Bormann Organization / Group
Martin Bormann was Hitler's most trusted aide
and has never been captured. Some believe he oversaw the transfer of most
of the Nazi capital into some 750 corporations in Germany, South-America,
and the U.S. He received help from someone like Allen Dulles (SMOM, OSS
chief, Pilgrims Society member, later CIA director). The purpose was to
establish a future 4th Reich. It's quite obvious that this is linked with
the Ratlines and the recruitment of Nazi general Reinhard Gehlen in the
aftermath of WWII. I suggest you check Paul Manning's 1981 book 'Martin Bormann: Nazi in Exile' and the person who took over his work, Dave Emory. It seems that
Paul Manning and his publisher have been punished severely for putting out
the book.
Chateau des Amerois
The castle was owned by Prince Philipp von
Saxe-Coburg-Gotha and later by the Solvay family. The Solvay family is one
of the leading industrial families of Europe (producer of medicines,
plastics, and chemicals like fluor). In their 1996 book, Fritz Springmeier
and Cisco Wheeler (very unsure what to think of their information)
referred to it as the 'Mothers of Darkness castle'. This obscure castle
does indeed exist and has been named in late 1996 and early 1997 by at
least one 'X' survivor of the Dutroux affair as a place where nasty things
happened. Different witnesses who described child torture, child rape,
child molestation, child hunting, and child murder have been declared
'mad', but only after all the original investigators were suddenly
replaced. There were also multiple claims of sex parties that were held in
different castles. It didn't matter that the witness accounts included
many verifiable corroborative details and helped solve a couple of
previous child murders. The cover up was so obvious that 300,000 Belgiums
went to the streets to protest against the way the investigation was
conducted. At least 3 families of the victims have been convinced there is
a massive cover up and at least 20 crucial witness have 'committed
suicide'. It seems to be very hard to get access to these X-files. Maybe
that has to do with the fact that many senior officials have been named as
participants in the above crimes, including members of the royal family
and at least one former European Commissioner (name hasn't been made
public). At the moment, I don't see how Springmeier or Wheeler could have
gained access to these secret hearings, but we'll see where this story
goes in the future.
Important update:
I found quite a bit of Belgian individuals who have been
accused in 1999 of having been involved in drug & child trafficking.
The person who gave the list committed suicide within a year. After doing
a small background check it turns out that some of them have conections
to, or are members of, the Trilateral Commission, the European Round
Table, the leadership of Le Cercle, important individuals of Bilderberg,
and the Russian mafia. Solvay SA again played a leading role, just as 2
royal families. And let's not forget individuals closely involved in
investigating the Dutroux affair.
Then there is one person who supposedly was named in the
Dutroux X-files. After looking up the few available details about this
person, it turns out that he was probably a Jesuit. Persons with the same
(quite unusual) surname appear on the boards of Solvay SA (not again!),
the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, Coca-Cola
Enterprises Belgium, and Banque Privée Edmond de Rothschild - Genève.
Another individual from the past with this surname was head of the Steel
Division of the UN European Economic Commission in 1952. He brought Henri
Rieben in contact with Jean Monnet, both founders of the European
movement. And yet another individual of the past with this surname was a
member of the 'Orde Souverain et Militaire du Temple de
Jerusalem'.
Because I know very little about this subject and much of
it is written in French (and Dutch) it will take a lot of time before I
might write an article about it. I didn't mention the names, because I
first want to verify some details (how the families fit together and what
the source of some of the information is).
Just keep in mind that Europe is continent waiting to be
explored.
Another update:
It is now clear to me that all the aspects of the
'globalist conspiracy' can be found in Belgium. Expect loads of fireworks
in the future. It's beyond shocking.
Club of the Isles
Could easily be the 1001 Club or possibly the
Multinational Chairman's Group, because they share many of the same
interests. Executive Intelligence Review mentioned it a couple of times. I
asked them about the club, but they don't seem to have that much
additional info either.
Committee of 26
This group is mentioned in Simon Regan's book 'Who killed
Diana?'. The author was informed about this group through his intelligence
contacts, including the one who advised him to look into Le Cercle. I
quote from his book: "My own security contacts, including the
Baroness, had also told me about a highly mysterious organization called
the Committee of 26, which is apparently based in Bristol, in England?s
West Country. I have never heard of this and can find no other official
reference in any file. But it is apparently a super-secret "liaison desk"
between the highest echelons of British and American agencies and has the
"co-operation" of the French. I was told it was "Old Guard" and worked
unilaterally. That is, it was a kind of uncontrolled "super-agency" which
answered to no one. I cannot show that this agency even exists... I trust
the Baroness, but she was unable to give me any feasible further "chapter
and verse." David Icke in his book 'The Biggest Secret' wrote:
"Why Bristol? It is a former Knights Templar port and its name has evolved
from Barati, the Phoenician goddess. It just so happens that an elite unit
of British Intelligence called the Committee of 26 is based there and they
use the runway at the British Aerospace complex to fly British and foreign
agents in and out of the country... In that period in the 1980s, not only
in Bristol, there were strange deaths galore of people at the cutting edge
of development in the ?defence? industries. "
Committee of 300
The group former MI6 agent John Coleman talked about back
in 1992. It's very interesting if you compare the name with the 'Committee
of 26' from totally different sources. I read chunks of the book, looking
for evidence of its existence, but couldn't find it. I have organized the
list of names (google's recent spelling correction is a god sent) and have
been able to copy a significant amount of biographies from prominent and
less-prominent members from other hidden organizations John Coleman has
never talked about. I guess that's a good thing, but as I just said, this
doesn't prove anything. I also have trouble believing 'the Olympians'
control everything from China to South-Africa. Looking at the names, it's
just like all the other hidden organizations, i.e. a high level discussion
group.
Group 13 & I3
These two are said to be assassination teams from Britain
and the U.S. Although there is no conclusive evidence, I am quite certain
that both exist. You can find some information about Britain's Group 13
here and some
information about the NSA's I3 here. The supposed head
of Group 13 turned out to be someone who's background cannot be fully
traced, not even by the British Parliament. This person and his allies
also infiltrated the boards of many arms companies. When a company, like
Astra, isn't useful anymore, they just give themselves huge salaries and
run the company into the ground.
Knight's Templar (CIA)
In his 1977 book 'The Night Watch', former CIA officer
David Atlee Phillips wrote on page 123: "...that small circle of
well-bred, highly educated adventurers who were known to some in the CIA
as the 'Knights Templars' - Allen Dulles, Frank Wisner, Kermit Roosevelt,
Tracey Barnes, Dick Bissell, and kindred spirits. Other CIA veterans have
confirmed the existence of similar associations within the agency, with
names like the "Century group" and the "Gold Key group". The first
three have been known members of Le Cercle. Of the first two we know they
were involved in recruiting Nazis in the wake of WWII. Kermit Roosevelt
helped de Marenches in setting up the Safari Club and led Operation Ajax
which brought the Shah to power. I find it very interesting all these
small hints to Templar organizations within intelligence groups as Le
Cercle, the Committee of 26, and now the CIA.
Tavistock Network
Said to be a worldwide mind-control network. Haven't
studied it and don't really have an opinion about it either. The Tavistock
Institute is located in London. You saw it in July 2005 when a bomb on a
London bus splattered blood and debris on its facade. John Coleman talked
about it. Kay Griggs also mentioned it.
The Brotherhood / The Firm
Mentioned by Kay Griggs, wife of marine colonel George
Griggs. According to Kay, her husband usually referred to the loose
network he was part of as 'the Brotherhood' or 'the Firm'. She was also
talking about a Zionist clique centered in New York City, which had the
unofficial name 'the Joint'. Kay describes how there is a network of
transnational criminals involved in all kinds of nasty stuff. This
includes drug running, illegal arms trade, sexual perversion, mind
control, assassinations, and the conducting of terrorism when deemed
necessary. A short article with all the names she mentioned will be put up
on this site. You can find the full 8-hour video here.
Did you notice that almost every single group we don't
know that much about is related to intelligence? We can only guess how
much more has been hidden from the public completely.
Part 2, UFO organizations
If someone thinks the UFO phenomenon is a non-issue, I
suggest you take a look at some of the mainstream newspaper articles I
gathered here. Whatever it is,
the phenomenon is real and it is very likely that secret institutions have
been set up to study it.
IPU
IPU stands for the Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit, which,
supposedly, was set up after the February 1942 Battle of Los Angeles
incident. In a 1980 document released through a FOIA request, the
Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit was part of the Scientific and Technical
Branch of the Counterintelligence Directorate. It was dissolved during the
late 1950?s and allegedly never reactivated. Their files were surrendered
to the Air Force Office of Special Investigations (AFOSI). You can find
scanned documents and a lot of additional info on Majesticdocuments.com.
MJ-12
MJ-12 is said to be a highly secret intelligence agency
set up for the purpose of investigating the UFO phenomenon. At the same
time they kept all the information from the public. The project was
started after the July 1947 UFO wave, followed by a crash in Roswell.
Together with the birth of MJ-12 the National Security State was born.
Almost anyone who has claimed to have inside information on the group has
said that MJ-12 still exists today, although it changes its name once in a
while. Many have also added that the group has been privatized, which is a
subject that sounds very familiar. There is a large amount of
documentation on Majestic 12, although these documents won't be accepted,
simply because they are too extraordinary to believe. According to Stanton
Friedman, most of the later documents are fake, but the earlier ones stand
up to careful scrutiny. You can find scanned documents and a lot of
additional info on Majesticdocuments.com.
It is said that certain JASON studies have been conducted for MJ-12. The
existence of the JASON Group is beyond dispute and an article about them
will appear soon.
Then there are some societies I won't go
into, because they are too 'far out' when there is a complete lack of any
evidence they exist. If you're interested in Tamar, Moriah, the Cult of
the Serpent, the Grand Druid Council, the Order of the Quest, the Keepers
of the Dawn, or something similar like that, I suggest you do an internet
search. I also skipped the Priory the Sion, because I haven't got a clue
what to believe about it.
