WHY JIM McDERMOTT IS A HERO
- and Tom Lantos is a scheming hypocrite

There was Colette Avital, a Labor Party member of the Israeli Knesset, on a trip to Capitol Hill, worried about the prospect of war in the Middle East. Rep. Tom Lantos, the ranking Democrat on the House Committee on International Affairs, took her by the hand, and, according to Ha'aretz, tried to reassure her with these soothing words:

"My dear Colette, don't worry. You won't have any problem with Saddam. We'll be rid of the bastard soon enough. And in his place we'll install a pro-Western dictator, who will be good for us and for you." .Lantos explained that this "interim period" of pro-Western autocracy "should last between five to six years." Yes, but..

"Avital says she asked how one can talk about a dictator in Iraq and at the same time demand 'democratic reforms' in the territories as a precondition for renewing the peace process."

. the visit of congressmen David Bonior, Jim McDermott and Mike Thompson to Iraq. They went on a humanitarian mission to Iraq at the request of U.S. church groups, and McDermott said in a live interview on ABC's "This Week" what everyone knows to be true:
"I think the president would mislead the American people. It would not surprise me if they came with some information that is not provable."

McDermott has become a lightning rod in the political storm over Iraq. The War Party wants to turn him into another Cynthia McKinney - but it won't work. Donald Rumsfeld convicted this administration out of his own mouth when, on September 25, 2001, .

US 'planned attack on Taleban' The wider objective was to oust the Taleban
By the BBC's George Arney

A former Pakistani diplomat has told the BBC that the US was planning military action against Osama Bin Laden and the Taleban even before last week's [9/11/2001] attacks.

Niaz Naik, a former Pakistani Foreign Secretary, was told by senior American officials IN MID-JULY [2001] that military action against Afghanistan would go ahead by the middle of October.

. Long before the attacks on the World Trade Towers the United States had been planning for a war in Afghanistan to create a climate more favorable for American oil companies. John Marcesca, as part of a UNOCAL working group on the Afghanistan pipeline project, had gone before Congress and stressed the necessity of replacing the Afghanistan government before a pipeline from the Caspian sea to the gulf of India could be built. The Bush White House admits that a plan to attack Afghanistan existed BEFORE 9-11. Following 9-11, the US did replace the government of Afghanistan, and the pipeline is under construction. One member of the UNOCAL working group, Hamid Karzai, is the President of the new government in Afghanistan. Another UNOCAL group member, Zalmay Khalilzad, is the US special envoy to Afghanistan. A cozy relationship to be sure!

"We have all heard the feds state there was no forewarning. Our governor [Maryland] held a live press conference earlier today in which he was asked if he knew of this in advance. After an uncomfortable pause, he said that the State had indeed been faxed information that a terrorist attack would occur, and he stated that at least two of the targets listed in the fax were indeed targets hit today. He said when the fax was received, it was immediately turned over to "a federal agency". Someone then quickly ran over and whispered something in his ear, at which point he stated he could make no further comments on the subject and immediately terminated the press interview. Hmmmmm..."

SUPPRESSED DETAILS OF CRIMINAL INSIDER TRADING LEAD DIRECTLY INTO THE CIA's HIGHEST RANKS

CIA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR "BUZZY" KRONGARD MANAGED FIRM THAT HANDLED "PUT" OPTIONS ON U[nited] A[ir] L[ines]

FTW, October 9, 2001 - Although uniformly ignored by the mainstream U.S. media, there is abundant and clear evidence that a number of transactions in financial markets indicated specific (criminal) foreknowledge of the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. In the case of at least one of these trades -- which has left a $2.5 million prize unclaimed -- the firm used to place the "put options" on United Airlines stock was, until 1998, managed by the man who is now in the number three Executive Director position at the Central Intelligence Agency. Until 1997 A.B. "Buzzy" Krongard had been Chairman of the investment bank A.B. Brown. A.B. Brown was acquired by Banker's Trust in 1997. Krongard then became, as part of the merger, Vice Chairman of Banker's Trust-AB Brown, one of 20 major U.S. banks named by Senator Carl Levin this year as being connected to money laundering. Krongard's last position at Banker's Trust (BT) was to oversee "private client relations." In this capacity he had direct hands-on relations with some of the wealthiest people in the world in a kind of specialized banking operation that has been identified by the U.S. Senate and other investigators as being closely connected to the laundering of drug money.
