    Well stated and articulated, good citizen AHuxley --- and as others more scholarly in the jurisprudence profession than I have stated (and I'm not exactly a slouch there, either), accusations under the Treason Act do not allow the defendant, i.e., whistleblower, to say anything on their behalf, it isn't admissible in court, only a plea of guilty or not guilty.

    Let's examine a typical Kaplan spewing:

    http://www.newsday.com/opinion/oped/kaplan-jfk-conspiracy-theories-don-t-add-up-1.6468431

    Any sane person, with an IQ above 100, who has actually read all the volumes of the Warren Commission report, with all their variances, obvious and glaring never-followed up questions, and massive discrepancies, knows it to be a pile of Rockefeller-paid for drivel!

    Now the IRS, FBI, state and local police organizations, etc., routinely use tax returns to go after criminals at the lower levels so let us use the same process to identify the super-criminals at the highest level:

    The tax returns of Allen Dulles and John McCloy, the top dogs and chiefs of the Warren Commission, across their entire lives, shows the majority of their monies and employment derives from the Rockefeller family and/or Rockefeller-owned businesses (McCloy would later be chairman of David Rockefeller's Chase Bank, while Dulles' brother also happened to marry into the Rockefeller family).

    The Rockefellers OWNED the Warren Commission, so the outcome was most predictable!

    Case Closed! (What scumbags for hire like Kaplan will never do, is actually read the Warren Commission Report [like Mort Sahl early did, which convinced of the criminal conspiracy he became enamored with, as would any ethical and sane American] and also read Conpiracy Theory in America, by Lance DeHaven-Smith, and James Douglass' JFK and the Unspeakable [which completely destroys the article cited by scumbag liar Kaplan] and David Talbot's Brothers and the recently released Rockefellerocracy: Kennedy Assassinations, Watergate and Monopoly of the Philanthropic Foundations, by Richard James Desocio [Plus the one book, while not about the JFK assassination, fully explains his administration: Donald Gibson's Battling Wall Street: the Kennedy presidency.)

  19. Unintended consequences my barbarously hard butt!

    Full spectrume domination of surveillance is their endgame, douchetard!

    Never trust anyone who suggests "nobody could have foreseen" and "unintended consequences" --- that is like suggesting that the Rockefellers (David and Nelson) never foresaw the enormous hurt they would be putting on American workers when Nelson, in his appointments during the Eisenhower administration, compromised the organization forms of Ex-Im Bank, AID, etc., to allow them to be circumvented and foreign aid used to build foreign factories and processing facilities which American jobs could then be offshored to (this was changed during President Kennedy's administration, but again flipped back when Johnson took office after JFK's assassination). Next, the Rockefellers had that corporate tax break instituted everytime an American job was offshored, still in effect to this very day!

    Next, David Rockefeller founded Council of the Americas, lobbying on behalf of the passage of NAFTA.

    David Rockefeller and his stooge, Peter G. Peterson, founded the Peterson Institute for International Economics (usually just referred to as the "Peterson Institute") one of whose main objectives was the offshoring of as many American jobs as possible.

  20. Recommendation 31 on US Federal Judge Rules NSA Data Collection Legal · · Score: 1

    Recommendation 31

    From the special report on NSA surveillance to the president:

    Recommendation 31:

    (1) Governments should not use surveillance to steal industry secrets to advantage their domestic industry;

    (2) Governments should not use their offensive cyber capabilities to change the amounts held in financial accounts or otherwise manipulate the financial systems;


    During the Bush administration, there were several national demonstrations concerning immigration --- each one knocking the news item of the day completely off the national news, and each time that news item was: warrantless wiretapping!

    By warrantless wiretapping, they referred to the eavesdropping on emails, wire transfers, all forms of data transmission, computer systems, etc.

    Both of these marches were organized by Spanish-language radio stations. The next obvious question is: who owned those Spanish-language radio stations?

    At that time they were owned by the largest private equity/leveraged buyout firm around, the Blackstone Group. Founded by David Rockefeller's protégé, Peter G. Peterson, with seed money from Rockefeller, along with co-founder Stephen Schwarzman, a Yalie Skull & Bones member, chosen for that fraternity by a group of upperclass men including one George W. Bush.

    Curious that the senator who ardently pushed for legal immunity for AT&T and the other telecoms from warrantless wiretapping was none other than Sen. Jay Rockefeller!

    Today, the Blackstone Group is the single largest landlord in America, owning some 41,000 rental homes. Their latest financial scam is to issue a rental home-based security.

    Amazing, given that revenue streams --- from those rental homes --- to pay investors will be diverted from normal expenses: upkeep and normal home maintenance, property taxes, homeowner's insurance, etc., etc., etc.

    (And that's assuming all the rental homes are fully paid for --- no monies going towards paying off the mortgage lenders and/or banks.)

    Just does not compute! ! ! !

    The Blackstone Group enjoys a nefarious past: buying and shutting down oil refineries to drive up the price of oil; speculating on oil and energy futures during the 2007 - 2008 period (when the paper price of oil rose to 13.8 times higher than its actual physical price), broker on the World Trade Center deal prior to the 9/11 attacks, and mortgage holder of record of WTC Building 7, and after the 9/11 attacks, overseer of the $1 billion captive insurance fund awarded to Blackstone from the US government, ostensibly to help out the families of the victims of 9/11; leveraged buyouts across the US healthcare sector, driving up the price of healthcare from 2000 - 20008, and, taking Blackstone Group public, as in on the New York Stock Exchange, while somehow still ONLY paying capital gains rate on taxes, when legally they should be paying the higher corporate tax rate!

    Recommendation 31 begs the question: on whose behalf was NSA manipulating financial systems and accounts?

    Was it Monsanto?

    The Blackstone Group?

    JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley?

    GE and AT&T?

    Or all of the above?

    Recently, the news reported that the Obama Administration is suppressing a $40 million report on illegal CIA torture --- been suppressed for about a year now.

    John Kiriakou was charged with treason and is now in jail for leaking information that implicated the CIA in illegal torture --- most notably torture of innocents, as the CIA would pay Afghanistani warlords per Taliban they handed over to them, and said unscrupulous warlords would round up innocent villagers (perhaps they liked the looks of their wives, daughters, etc.) and sell them to the equally unscrupulous CIA.
