    Don't give me that Adolf crap, you lazy cunt. Go and have a look at all of the still-unanswered questions about 9/11, like where were the "hijackers" on the passenger lists? Like how come at least 7 alleged hijackers are still walking this earth? Like why were a bunch of Mossad agents filming the WTC attack and celebrating? Pinning any of this on a bunch of lunatic Zionist fanatics is he very last thing I would have wanted to end up doing, but the fucking evidence keeps pointing at it. Twat.

    Yeah, perhaps I am a bit paranoid. But you're right - 9/11 took considerable effort and funding, which doesn't gel with the revealed Al-Qaeda gripes about unity and cash shortages. And it isn't as if Al-Qaeda jubilantly got on the wire the minute that 9/11 happened, it was more sort of "Did we? Oh, good for us" many hours later. It doesn't ring right. It does, however, have a strong flavour of a false-flag op, which has been possibly the only tactic of militant Zionism (the activities of the Stern gang, for example).

    I apologise for painting with too broad a brush, but there is something in all of this that is deeply connected to the State of Israel. The Neturei Karta view is too vivid (and their conciliatory talk too full of compassion, gentleness, love and wisdom) for me to fail to compare it to other outpourings, like the hateful vindictiveness of Sharon. Something somewhere in the Jewish story has become horrible corrupted for an Israeli leader to suggest genocide as a solution to the Palestinian problem, or to support an expansionist policy nigh identical to Hitler's "Lebensraum". It is plainly not the true heritage of the Torah, and I thank NK for revealing that to the world.

    So what's my paranoia? It's just that I fear that there is an agenda somewhere that will encourage anti-Jewish behaviour for some crazy ideal, that it is likely rooted in fanatical Zionism, and that ordinary Jewish people will suffer terribly once more as a result. That is something that can not pass and that I would feel obliged to stand and fight against - and probably be branded "anti-semitic" (whatever that's supposed to mean) in the process.

    "It is essential that the sufferings of Jews. . . become worse. . . this will assist in realization of our plans. . .I have an excellent idea. . . I shall induce anti-semites to liquidate Jewish wealth. . . The anti-semites will assist us thereby in that they will strengthen the persecution and oppression of Jews. The anti-semites shall be our best friends". (From the Diary of Theodor Herzl [founder of modern Zionism], Part I, pp. 16). It hasn't gone away.

  6. Re:Insights on Inside Al-Qaeda's Hard Drive · · Score: 1

    I think you've missed something, although your analysis is close. It is the role of the Zionists (and the objections of Orthodoxy to them) before and after the founding of modern Israel. Some of the information in the following linked sites may astound you as much as it astounded me:

    http://www.nkusa.org/index.cfm

    http://www.jewsagainstzionism.com/index.html

    There is no doubt to my mind that Zionist fanatics are complicit in many if not all attacks against Jewish people living outside of Israel. As you say, many Jewish people live contentedly in the US. This, it would appear, is anaethema to the committed Zionist.

    Zionist complicity in the 9/11 attacks is not an unreasonable supposition. The fact that the Osama correspondence of August 2001 (just after the Taleban merger), referred to in the article's link, seems only indicate the /beginning/ of an idea to attack the Continental US (and then only against Israeli embassies or consulates etc) is at odds with the time and scale of the events of 9/11 themselves.

    Go figure, as the idiom goes.

    Shit, this is a fun topic. Back in January, I built myself an AMD 64 3200+, Chaintech MoBo, 1Gb Crucial RAM, 80Gb IDE, 30Gb IDE, 2x 160Gb Seagate Barracuda, SiL SATA RAID0, AOpen CD-RW, NEC DVD+-RW, NVidia FX5900. And I'm running Windows XP Pro as my main OS because it's the most useful across all my apps.

    I have SuSE 9 with a self compiled 2.6.5 kernel (no ROM drives and broken bits last fixed in 2.6.2-mjb), Gentoo stage 1 build with self-compiled Gentoo 2.6.5 kernel (lotsa missing kernel options) that just doesn't boot, Slackware 9 with self-compiled 32-bit 2.6.5 that *nearly* hits the mark except for KDE and all (at least it sees the SATA drives, if not as RAID0). Under SuSE, my lovely Sony USB 3.5 inch floppy shows up as a squillion drives or not at all in other builds. Create a boot disk? pffft! And NVidia 64-bit drivers? BWAHAHA!

    FreeBSD 5.2 AMD64 is fast, dull, mysterious and very weird, but still lovable even though it doesn't see GRUB.

    My understanding is that negative feedback improves the temperature stability and frequency response of an amplifier for virtually no cost. Why remove it?

    Purity. Negative feedback is never quite phase coherent with initial signal, you get filtering effects and so on. AFAIR, Bob Carver's wonderful Phase Linear power ampflifiers ran on a similar principal - they sounded terrific, which is why Pink FLoyd's techs chose them as PA power for the Wall tour 25 years ago. We did an A-B test blindfold between these and some MOSFET power amps years ago - and could tell the difference in a matter of seconds. The Phasies won hands down, of course.
