    Is this war for oil? Following is a speech to congress in 1998 by the vice president for public relations for unocol. Was this man a prophet, was this afghan scenario planned, or is this a natural developement? Read and see what you think. It is from.

    On balance, it seems to me that the third of these alternatives holds the most promise for achieving a balance between U.S. objectives in Central Asia and the Caspian, on the one hand, and in Iran. But my point in raising them is not to champion one course of action or another. Rather, it is to suggest that it is no longer possible to treat U.S. policy toward Central Asia and toward Iran as totally separate from one another. Our Iranian policy, however just its goals, has a powerful and, for the most part, negative impact on our ability to achieve our stated objectives in Central Asia and the Caspian. Simply to acknowledge this reality would be to open a path to more sustainable effective policies toward both areas. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
    [The prepared statement of Mr. Starr appears in the appendix.]
    Mr. BEREUTER. Thank you very much, Mr. Starr.
    Next we would like to hear from Mr. John J. Maresca, vice president of international relations, Unocal Corporation. You may proceed as you wish.
    STATEMENT OF JOHN J. MARESCA, VICE PRESIDENT OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS, Unocal CORPORATION
    Mr. MARESCA. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. It's nice to see you again. I am John Maresca, vice president for international relations of the Unocal Corporation. Unocal, as you know, is one of the world's leading energy resource and project development companies. I appreciate your invitation to speak here today. I believe these hearings are important and timely. I congratulate you for focusing on Central Asia oil and gas reserves and the role they play in shaping U.S. policy.
    I would like to focus today on three issues. First, the need for multiple pipeline routes for Central Asian oil and gas resources. Second, the need for U.S. support for international and regional efforts to achieve balanced and lasting political settlements to the conflicts in the region, including Afghanistan. Third, the need for structured assistance to encourage economic reforms and the development of appropriate investment climates in the region. In this regard, we specifically support repeal or removal of section 907 of the Freedom Support Act.

    Mr. Chairman, the Caspian region contains tremendous untapped hydrocarbon reserves. Just to give an idea of the scale, proven natural gas reserves equal more than 236 trillion cubic feet. The region's total oil reserves may well reach more than 60 billion barrels of oil. Some estimates are as high as 200 billion barrels. In 1995, the region was producing only 870,000 barrels per day. By 2010, western companies could increase production to about 4.5 million barrels a day, an increase of more than 500 percent in only 15 years. If this occurs, the region would represent about 5 percent of the world's total oil production.
    One major problem has yet to be resolved: how to get the region's vast energy resources to the markets where they are needed. Central Asia is isolated. Their natural resources are landlocked, both geographically and politically. Each of the countries in the Caucasus and Central Asia faces difficult political challenges. Some have unsettled wars or latent conflicts. Others have evolving systems where the laws and even the courts are dynamic and changing. In addition, a chief technical obstacle which we in the industry face in transporting oil is the region's existing pipeline infrastructure.
    Because the region's pipelines were constructed during the Moscow-centered Soviet period, they tend to head north and west toward Russia. There are no connections to the south and east. But Russia is currently unlikely to absorb large new quantities of foreign oil. It's unlikely to be a significant market for new energy in the next decade. It lacks the capacity to deliver it to other markets.
    Two major infrastructure projects are seeking to meet the need for additional export capacity. One, under the aegis of the Caspian Pipeline Consortium, plans to build a pipeline west from the northern Caspian to the Russian Black Sea port of Novorossiysk. Oil would then go by tanker through the Bosporus to the Mediterranean and world markets.
    The other project is sponsored by the Azerbaijan International Operating Company, a consortium of 11 foreign oil companies, including four American companies, Unocal, Amoco, Exxon and Pennzoil. This consortium conceives of two possible routes, one line would angle north and cross the north Caucasus to Novorossiysk. The other route would cross Georgia to a shipping terminal on the Black Sea. This second route could be extended west and south across Turkey to the Mediterranean port of Ceyhan.

    Page 32 PREV PAGE TOP OF DOC
    But even if both pipelines were built, they would not have enough total capacity to transport all the oil expected to flow from the region in the future. Nor would they have the capability to move it to the right markets. Other export pipelines must be built.
    At Unocal, we believe that the central factor in planning these pipelines should be the location of the future energy markets that are most likely to need these new supplies. Western Europe, Central and Eastern Europe, and the Newly Independent States of the former Soviet Union are all slow growth markets where demand will grow at only a half a percent to perhaps 1.2 percent per year during the period 1995 to 2010.
    Asia is a different story all together. It will have a rapidly increasing energy consumption need. Prior to the recent turbulence in the Asian Pacific economies, we at Unocal anticipated that this region's demand for oil would almost double by 2010. Although the short-term increase in demand will probably not meet these expectations, we stand behind our long-term estimates.
    I should note that it is in everyone's interest that there be adequate supplies for Asia's increasing energy requirements. If Asia's energy needs are not satisfied, they will simply put pressure on all world markets, driving prices upwards everywhere.
    The key question then is how the energy resources of Central Asia can be made available to nearby Asian markets. There are two possible solutions, with several variations. One option is to go east across China, but this would mean constructing a pipeline of more than 3,000 kilometers just to reach Central China. In addition, there would have to be a 2,000-kilometer connection to reach the main population centers along the coast. The question then is what will be the cost of transporting oil through this pipeline, and what would be the netback which the producers would receive.
    For those who are not familiar with the terminology, the netback is the price which the producer receives for his oil or gas at the wellhead after all the transportation costs have been deducted. So it's the price he receives for the oil he produces at the wellhead.

    Page 33 PREV PAGE TOP OF DOC
    The second option is to build a pipeline south from Central Asia to the Indian Ocean. One obvious route south would cross Iran, but this is foreclosed for American companies because of U.S. sanctions legislation. The only other possible route is across Afghanistan, which has of course its own unique challenges. The country has been involved in bitter warfare for almost two decades, and is still divided by civil war. From the outset, we have made it clear that construction of the pipeline we have proposed across Afghanistan could not begin until a recognized government is in place that has the confidence of governments, lenders, and our company.
    Mr. Chairman, as you know, we have worked very closely with the University of Nebraska at Omaha in developing a training program for Afghanistan which will be open to both men and women, and which will operate in both parts of the country, the north and south.
    Unocal foresees a pipeline which would become part of a regional system that will gather oil from existing pipeline infrastructure in Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Russia. The 1,040-mile long oil pipeline would extend south through Afghanistan to an export terminal that would be constructed on the Pakistan coast. This 42-inch diameter pipeline will have a shipping capacity of one million barrels of oil per day. The estimated cost of the project, which is similar in scope to the trans-Alaska pipeline, is about $2.5 billion.
    Given the plentiful natural gas supplies of Central Asia, our aim is to link gas resources with the nearest viable markets. This is basic for the commercial viability of any gas project. But these projects also face geopolitical challenges. Unocal and the Turkish company Koc Holding are interested in bringing competitive gas supplies to Turkey. The proposed Eurasia natural gas pipeline would transport gas from Turkmenistan directly across the Caspian Sea through Azerbaijan and Georgia to Turkey. Of course the demarcation of the Caspian remains an issue.
    Last October, the Central Asia Gas Pipeline Consortium, called CentGas, in which Unocal holds an interest, was formed to develop a gas pipeline which will link Turkmenistan's vast Dauletabad gas field with markets in Pakistan and possibly India. The proposed 790-mile pipeline will open up new markets for this gas, traveling from Turkmenistan through Afghanistan to Multan in Pakistan. The proposed extension would move gas on to New Delhi, where it would connect with an existing pipeline. As with the proposed Central Asia oil pipeline, CentGas can not begin construction until an internationally recognized Afghanistan Government is in place.

    Page 34 PREV PAGE TOP OF DOC
    The Central Asia and Caspian region is blessed with abundant oil and gas that can enhance the lives of the region's residents, and provide energy for growth in both Europe and Asia. The impact of these resources on U.S. commercial interests and U.S. foreign policy is also significant. Without peaceful settlement of the conflicts in the region, cross-border oil and gas pipelines are not likely to be built. We urge the Administration and the Congress to give strong support to the U.N.-led peace process in Afghanistan. The U.S. Government should use its influence to help find solutions to all of the region's conflicts.
    U.S. assistance in developing these new economies will be crucial to business success. We thus also encourage strong technical assistance programs throughout the region. Specifically, we urge repeal or removal of section 907 of the Freedom Support Act. This section unfairly restricts U.S. Government assistance to the government of Azerbaijan and limits U.S. influence in the region.
    Developing cost-effective export routes for Central Asian resources is a formidable task, but not an impossible one. Unocal and other American companies like it are fully prepared to undertake the job and to make Central Asia once again into the crossroads it has been in the past. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

    Saint,

    No this time (unlike the Gulf War) this war is not about oil. This war is about 6000 US civilians being senselessly murdered because of the deranged delusions of Bin Ladin, et al. Hey, if we get access to more oil reserves as a result, GREAT. This can only improve the economy of Afghanistan, one of the world's poorest nations; and bring it more into the global community.

    Sorry, reminds me of a joke with that as a punch line. Let me know if you want to hear it. You are right on the money (pun intended).

    FDR lured japan into attacking pearl harbour by embargoing thier oil sources and cutting off scrap metal shipments. The unprotected fleet was the carrot. FRD wanted something that would mobilize the american people to join the war. The war secured new markets for american products.

    I don't think so. I'm re-reading ad digesting this, but I heard an interesting comment this morning. While most everyone thinks we 'go in there to take the oil' many of the Arab world feel that THE OIL IS 'OURS' ANYWAY.

    We (US & western world) are THE customer!!! What are they going to do with it? Smoke it???

    WE do pay for it, not steal it. So, the west having the oil is not the real problem.

    Maybe getting the oil to asian markets is a good thing. The question is: was/is chicanery used to acheive this goal.

    While everyone is now focused on the war, what about the developement of alternate energy sources: fusion, solar, hydrogen, zero point/vacuum/casimir effect etc? Iceland is working toward using geothermal and hydrogen for everyhting. Chicago's mayor daley started a program to dramatically increase alt energy use.

    I am trying to give a bit of background to show the bigger picture. People should exercise their freedom to aquire information more as well as getting the popular media. I am going to paste a longer piece on the same subject, and then following that a referenced event log surrounding the pearl harbor attack. It might shake you up, or you might say it is all shit. Two people with different natures, given the same materials would draw different conclusions. Choose you own conclusions. I don't go along with everything in the hernandez article.

    If you were a mystery writer, say, an Agatha Christie chess brain, and were confronted with a pair of corpses, two very tall, well loved, glamorous, American TWINS) , you would review the clues with avidity wouldn't you?

    If you read every article in cyberspace, you would see, as researchers do, that U.S. spooks knew the two, beautiful twins were a.) scheduled to be offed, and b.) their death by fire would get you so crazy-flag-waving that they could put a long, long war before you and you'd bite down on it, hook and all.

    The USA, CIA, NSC, Joint Chiefs, George Senior, and Dick Cheney, KNEW the WTC attack was FINALLY, about to happen. You'll see it if you hold the following clues in mind all at once:

    1) ECHELON spies gave U.S authorities a 3 month warning of attacks. A German paper reported U.S. and Israeli intelligence agencies received warning signals at least three months ago that terrorists were planning to hijack commercial aircraft to use as weapons to attack important symbols of American culture, according to a story in Germany's daily Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung http://wwwnewsbytes.com

    2) The U.S. already in JULY 2001, had planned to attack the Taliban before the WTC/Pentagon attacks: a former Pakistani diplomat has told the BBC that the U.S.A. was planning military action against Osama and the Taliban even before last weekís attacks. Niaz Naik, a former Pakistani foreign secretary, was told by senior American officials in mid-July that military action against Afghanistan would go ahead by the middle of October. (BBC news 9-18-01)

    EVIDENCE THAT The USA already planned and attack on the Taliban. http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/world/south_asia/newsid_1550000/1550366.stm

    This former Paki diplomat told the BBC that the U.S was planning military action against Osama Bin Laden and the Taliban even before last weekís attacks. Niaz Naik, a former Pakistani foreign secretary, was told by senior American officials in mid-July that military action against Afghanistan would go ahead by the middle of October.

    Mr Naik said U.S. officials told him of the plan at a U.N. sponsored international, contact group on Afghanistan which took place in Berlin. He told the BBC that at the meeting the us representatives told him that unless Bin Laden was handed over swiftly, America would take military action to kill or capture both Bin Laden and the Taliban leader, Mullah Omar.

    The wider objective, according to Mr Naik, who is MIND YOU RETIRED and a PAKI, would be to topple the Taliban regime and install a transitional government of moderate (read manageable by US Oil men) Afghans in its place - possibly under the leadership of the former Afghan King Zahir Shah.

    Mr Naik was told that Washington would launch its operation from bases in Tajikistan, (implying full Ruski cooperation) where American advisers were already in place. He was told that Uzbekistanwould also participate in the operation and that 17,000 Russian troops were on standby to AID IN THIS SEIZURE. (!) (At this point your AGATHA CHRISTIE CUI BONUM machinery starts clicking and you realize that RUSSIA and USA had imperialist aims related to that sand pit, i.e. it was to be pipeline for OIL biz between the new Capitalistniks in the Aparatchik Formerly known as Russia and the combined Bush/Houston/Global Marine, Sta Fe Internat'l cum Kuwait forces, i.e. their brand new corporation, only weeks old, merged September 4th, 2001.)

    Naik had been told by his contacts that if the military action went ahead it would take place before the snows started falling in Afghanistan, by the middle of October at the latest. He said that he was in no doubt that after the world trade center bombings this pre-existing us plan had been built upon and would be implemented within two or three weeks and he said it was doubtful that Washington would drop its plan even if Bin Laden were to be surrendered immediately by the Taliban.

    3.) Russia knew in advance...(obviously, see above) proven by fact IT encouraged citizens to cash out dollars: Russian press accounts and other activities by the russian government this summer indicate that the russians knew in advance that something would happen to america, including a "financial attack" against the u.s. during the past three months, russian media and officials have encouraged citizens to cash out of u.s. dollars pending an economic collapse there after an "attack." http://www/newsmax.com 9-17-01

    4) The FBI tracked a PILOT TERRORIST (currently in custody) 2 weeks before attacks: "two weeks before the terrorist attacks in new york city and Washington, D.C., FBI agents were at a flight school in Oklahoma asking questions about a man now suspected of having a link to those attacks", according to CNN.

    "The fact that FBI agents were at the airman flight school in Norman, Oklahoma, two weeks before any attacks would seem to contradict the agencyís assertion that it was not aware of any connection between aviation schools and suspected terrorists. FBI director Robert Mueller has stated publicly, "there were no warning signs that Iím aware of that would indicate this type of operation in the country," http://cnn.com 9-18-01 somebody is lying!

    5) USA pulled plug on 500 Arab/Muslim websites the day before jetliner attacks: five hundred websites - many of them with an arab or muslim connection - crashed when an anti-terrorism task force raided infocom corporation in texas. The 80-strong task force that descended upon the company included FBI agents, secret service agents, diplomatic security agents, tax inspectors, immigration officials, customs officials, department of commerce officials and computer experts. (Brian Whitaker 9-12-01)

    6) 6 YEARS AGO, U.S. was warned in 1995 of plot to hijack planes, attack buildings: the FBI was warned of a terrorist plot to hijack commercial planes and slam them into the Pentagon, the CIA headquarters and other buildings, Philippine investigators told CNN just a few days ago. The plan was termed ''Project Bojinka.' (manila, philippines cnn 9-18-01)

    7) U.S government had prior knowledge of OSAMA CELLS. As ex CIA chief Stansfield Turner admitted, Oct 3rd, on CNN cable, US/ FBI had prior knowledge of 4 to 6 Bin Laden cells in the USA. That means the cells were completely bugged. Every phone line, every cell phone, every email. Turner said they couldn't move in and arrest them as a.) they'd done nothing illegal, and b.) each man was here LEGALLY. Which brings us to the fact:

    8.) INS sold citizenship to terrorists for 6 thousand dollars a piece, as an 'under the table' bribe. There was interest in having these Bin Laden cells 'peopled' or 'filled out, as here inside USA, it was easy to watch and eavesdrop on them. An INS career officer, out of the ORLANDO FLorida INS office, caught and ratted out her bosses for selling citizenship to terrorists. When her bosses abused her, she sued the INS/ USA as a whistleblower and she won in court, a large cash settlement. The INS is currently appealing that decision. She Filed with aid of lawyer Donald Apignani in Florida. During her lawsuit, the INS officer sent all her evidence to John Ashcroft, head man at Dept of Justice, Atty Gen for USA. He did not answer her but sent the whole package back to her bosses. He did not want to know about it. The outraged INS officer woman is suing again in California, and while file any day, now. But let's go back to NUMBER 7, U.S had PRIOR KNOWLEDGE

    7.) CONTINUED -FOREIGN SPIES TOLD American CIA that the TERRORIST ATTACK WAS COMING THAT WEEK! That the Sept 11th birthday of ISRAEL might be the day. (72 years ago) Among the foreign intelligence agencies who penetrated the plots were French DEUXIEME BUREAU and ISRAEL'S MOSSAD units of both often working with one another. Foreign intelligence sources confirm the validity of this story and they state that they informed the U.S. Secret police who absolutely failed, neglected, and outright refused to take action as to known prior specifics of which the top-level of the CIA were informed in advance. http://www.skolnicksreport.com 9-13-01

    8.) THERE WAS A deliberate leak from a double agent in the White House. Terrorists had ultra secret codes day they attacked WTC and said as much. That they had the secret phones at White House, knew where POTUS was, Air Force One, all reported on http://worldnetdaily.com as well as in all media, Sept 22nd, 2001.

    9) DEAD GIVEAWAY in unusual and SUSPICIOUS market activity reported before the attacks: "Chicago traders on Wednesday cited unusual activity in airline options up to a month before 911 emergency and German bankers reported brisk activity in Reinsurer Munich adding to speculation that those behind the attacks tried to profit from their acts. (Reuters 9-20-01) How come everyone knew this was going to happen? Why would the USA. refuse to investigate when told, unless it was their own plan all along? FDR knew of Japanís coming attack on Pearl Harbor. It certainly appears that the USA/ NWO/ CIA /NSC NSA Secret White house elite who govern US backed by OLIGARCHS, BANKERS, knew in advance that a great catastrophe was about to occur on American soil and did absolutely nothing in order to prevent it.

    What could have been done? Plenty. For starters, weapon-seeking X-ray security at all airports could have been beefed up. Air bases could have been put on alert. Planes should have been airborne upon the first indication of a hijacking. as it was, these hijacked planes were in the air for as much as a 30 minutes or more, after being hijacked and diverted, and yet totally unchallenged by military aircraft. At best, this was totally inept; and at worst, stinks of collusion.

    There are many, many unanswered questions concerning the collapse of the towers. For example, why did the towers collapse? many engineers have stated that they were built to withstand an aircraft hit, and also to endure temperatures of 2,000 degrees. in addition, why did the south tower fall first, considering that it was hit by the second aircraft? CBC news replayed an ABC interview with two American heroes that rescued a handicapped person in the north tower. they said that while leaving the tower, they heard an explosion, turned around and saw the tower collapsing, and then ran for their lives. The question is: what explosion? the first tower was hit an hour and 45 minutes before this explosion, therefore, it could not have been from the jet fuel.

    Another quote from the same article previously mentioned: why did the towers implode instead of explode? The towers came down as gracefully as a fountain of water. "too methodical to be a chance result of airplanes colliding with the structures" said Van Romero, vice president for research at New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology. "My opinion is that after the airplanes hit the world trade center there were some explosive devices inside the buildings that caused the towers to collapse," romero said. romero is a former director of the energetic materials research and testing center at tech, which studies explosive materials and the effects of explosions on buildings, aircraft and other structures. The towers imploded! they did not explode! a fuel fire causes an explosion, not an implosion. explosions explode out. implosions, implode in! implosions can only occur with immense planning by a highly skilled group of craftsmen educated in the unique skill of demolishing buildings by strategically placing explosive devices within the building. this requires many experts, much time and significant access to the building beforehand. the skill of implosion of buildings was developed primarily to demolish buildings in areas of high building density, so the destruction of the structure will not cause damage to the surrounding buildings. in addition, the towers came down long after the planes struck.

    It is ludicrous to suggest that fuel dumping from the airplanes caused a fire hot enough to melt the inner structure first of all, who can prove the planes dumped all of their fuel into the core of the building? second, why did the fuel take so long to catch fire? third, fuel-fires cause explosions, not implosions! fourth, the structure was built to withstand temperatures of 2000 degrees fahrenheit, according to the architect and designer of the building, a man who is now deceased, but who preserved this nugget of information in an interview he recorded in 1998. Hyman Brown, a university of colorado civil engineering professor and the world trade centerís construction manager, watched in confusion as the towers came down. "it was over-designed to withstand almost anything including hurricanes, high winds, bombings and an airplane hitting it," he said. (Scripps Howard news service 9-11,01 and 9-12-01)So, why was it necessary to implode the whole structure? to eliminate evidence, just as was done to the Murrah building in Oklahoma City, before the forensic specialists could get in to examine the evidence. Just like the branch davidian compound at Waco was bulldozed by the government before any evidence could be examined. And the expert hired to look at 'flashes' caught on video who told his friends that flashes proved FBI shot every child that tried to get outÖ. that man was himself killed, the day before he was to testify to Congress.

    Conclusion: this was a highly skilled endeavor by a large group of well-trained people with access to the buildings, the airplanes and the explosives. they would have had to blend into the population and not look suspicious. and the bldgs in question had, a few weeks earlier, been sold BY GOV to Mr. Silverstein. NYC previously owned them (read Chase Manhattan Bank, and Citibank and those two together ARE the IMF..) Poor Mr Silverstein was 3.2 billion short and STEPFATHER BANK was out from under. Look on the Bright Side Mr. Silverstein. Not many renters get a chance to rebuild on the spot with the IMF financing them. Demolition was cheap! a few sticks of dynamite here, there. You still have a hundred year lease....

    The real question is when it comes to downing two skyscrapers, who would have these qualifications? certainly not a group of Arab "terrorists" who bungled the l993 bombing and got caught. Who gained from these attacks? Not terrorists, not Al-Qaeda. It was the plantary oligarchs that let the terrorists have 'count that little coup', indulged them their one ugly, 15 minutes of fame as they needed AMERICANS TO START FOAMING FOR WAR.

    Now the Middle East has the wrath of the American eagle descending upon them. What Stone age sand flea in his right mind would want that?

    Houston had to do it. They were essentially drillers without fields. Pity the poor oligarchs, a plantary economy in deep recession. We weren't buying their stuff (snuffle, sniff) Oligarchs with nowhere to invest. That's how recessions start. When the POOR don't open their wallet, then the rich can't either.

    Instead of concentrating on the terrorists, take a good look at what was transpiring in the USA and what can be extrapolated from it. They were like Godzillas feasting on our productivity. They took away our factories and salaries and still hoped we'd buy cars. We couldn't. What can they do with a trillion Fords that break down at l00,000 miles and are overpriced when Koreans can make a car that works? SELL US A WAR is what!

    PART II. What else has happened since the attacks?

    1) the population has been in one moment, prepared psychologically and economically, for a long term war where the number of U.S.. casualties will be high (Washington Post online September 21, 2001).

    2) Bush created a new office of "homeland security" (read SS, ) supposedly to protect Americans from attack. The job would involve coordination of government-wide domestic security efforts, including meshing domestic FBI, and foreign CIA intelligence, working alongside US. military, emergency officials and state and local governments. Wanna bet that this new, patriotic homeland defense position will probably not need senate confirmation, which other cabinet jobs require, nor legislation to create" white house officials said. so there will be no investigation, oversight nor accountability for this group's actions. An abrogation of our Constitution. (Reuters - Washington 9-21-01)

    3) U.S. orders 40 million doses of smallpox vaccine for $343 million in preparation for a possible bioterrorism assault. the contract has been given to a small, cambridge-based firm Acambis, a British biotechnology company who reported a net loss of $8 million in the six months prior to June 30, unchanged from last year. (how convenient to get this huge order! It would be interesting to find the crony-ism involved, here.) (Reuters news, London 9-20-01) And the media is blaring everywhere about anthrax, small box, Saran gas, preparing the population to expect bio-terrorism.

    4) America and Britain are co-producing secret plans to launch a ten year "war on terrorism" - Operation Noble Eagle - involving a completely new military and diplomatic strategy to eliminate terrorist networks and cells around the world." (The Times -London 9-20-01).

    5) The American Senate already OKAYED the FBI spying on the internet: fbi agents soon will be able to spy on internet users legally without a court order. Two days after the terrorist attack, the senate approved the "combating terrorism act of 2001" which enhances police wiretap powers and permits monitoring in more situations. the fbiís surveillance system is called carnivore. (Lycos network 9-20-01)

    6) The U.S. plans to overthrow taliban and put Afghanistan under United Nations control, according to The Manchester Guardian - London (9-21-01) note: Yugoslavia is already under U.N. control.

    7) A global surveillance system known as echelon exists and has the ability to eavesdrop on telephone calls, faxes and e-mail messages. Face-id technology gains new support. "State lawmakers who were planning to sponsor legislation restricting its use now say they are reassessing their plans." (Denver Post Capitol Bureau, 9-20-01)

    9) "Experts see a high-security america of surveillance & seizures": new york: security experts in the united states are describing a new kind of country that could emerge, where electronic identification might become the norm, immigrants might be tracked far more closely and the airspace over cities like new york and washington might be off-limits to all civilian aircraft." (the nternational herald tribune 9-19-01) more surveillance of u.s. citizens.

    10) "Lawmakers see need to loosen rules on CIA" Congressional leaders, who oversee the nationís intelligence system (yeah right!) have concluded that americaís spy agencies should be allowed to combat terrorism with more aggressive tactics, including the hiring of unsavory foreign agents, including revived discussion of reversing the us 25 year ban on using covert agents to assassinate foreigners. R. James Woolsey, the former director of the CIA said that "Washington has absolutely undergone a change in thinking this week." (New York Times, 9-16-01) So what we're getting for our intelligence nickle is a dime's worth of surveillance of u.s.citizens!

    11) NATO announces a third world war is almost upon us. A Pentagon spokesman hinted towards potential targets being Libya, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, north korea, Syria and others. (NATO secretary-general lord Robertson)

    12) California congresswoman, Mary Bono, R-Palm Springs warned that the country should prepare for a fight against international terrorists that will likely include personal sacrifice, the use of ground troops overseas and the risk of retaliation against civilians by the enemy. she alsopredicts intense scrutiny of airline passengers, a national system of fingerprinting and identification cards and the spectre of chemical and biological attacks on the u.s. (the Desert Sun 9-18-01)

    13) An enemy is needed to justify a $344 billion war budget, when the federal government currently spends only $42 billion on education, $26 billion on affordable housing and bizarrely low, $1 billion on school construction.

    14) President Bush sent his anti-terrorism bill to Congress one week after the WTC/Pentagon attack, launching an emotional debate that will force u.s. politicians to choose between continued freedom for americans or greater security. (Lycos network 9-20-01) does anybody know how long it takes to write one of these bills? it takes months! they are hundreds of pages long. this one was obviously written before the attack! how convenient! wake up America!

    15) "President Bush focused his energy on building a global alliance for a fight against terrorism..." (MSNBC 9-18-01) here comes the new world order! 1984!

    16) fast-moving house bill restricts liberties - much of it unrelated to terrorism! congress is being asked to rush to pass emergency anti-terrorist legislation written by the department of justice, but much of the legislation turns out to have nothing to do with fighting terrorism. instead, the legislation contains a host of items which have been on the bureaucratic wish lists for many years.

    17) "we must ignore the peace lobby and show no restraint" says the Independent (hardly!)- London (9-24-01) 1 bush suspends habeas corpus: legal immigrants may be held without cause: "the bush administration today announced it is using its powers under the national emergency act to suspend the right of habeas corpus for all immigrants in the country, including legal immigrants, meaning that any immigrant in the u.s. right now can be held indefinitely by the police or government without trial or demonstration of cause to hold them." and daily on the tv they talk of putting chips in us so we can be identified, ostensibly so no Arab can steal our identity. They want us to have our true identity! though no one has yet suggested infringing the rights of U.S. citizens, the move is a frightening first step to a national tyranny, based on perpetual suspension of the constitution in the name of fighting perpetual war." l984 came, l7 years LATE.

    19) President bush has agreed to bail out the airlines with billions of dollars, an industry that was swimming in red ink long before the wtc/pentagon attacks. It is obvious to anyone who has eyes to see, and ears to hear, that American citizens are going to lose their freedom. the process has already begun. eventually the entire world will lose theirs as well. Consider for a moment, the national I.D.card that is being proposed. Like any passport it could be counterfeited. A national ID card can only be concluded as the logical first step. when it is acknowledged, as not accomplishing its task, and then, guess what's waiting in the wings? A switch to micro chip technology would be sought as the only viable solution. 666 I believe the bible prophecy freaks call it. It means that you can wear a chip in your butt just like your Dalmation.


    When you have surfed around there, and read just a few articles, youíll be ready to play this Agatha Christie Solve the Mystery of who killed the Big Twins game, armed with the following secret maps I'm going to give you of what you should be seeking, searching out...

    1.) FOREIGN ALLIES. What if IQ 80 Bush Jr. really had no idea that the terrorists were coming. (cough!). Very unlikely as we have seen but what if there was actually a nation state that did this as a covert military action. Someone behind Osama. Someone running him. Who might that be? http://www.morphmaster.com/binladen.htm (surf there). Who was close to Osama in his lifetime?

    Someone was running him before or after the USA ran him in the 80's. Reporters who know him say heís a happy space case dunce. Kind of like our old friend Lee Harvey Oswald whose last words alive were ' I'm a Patsy.' In another famous, CIA/OSS/SS action called the JFK HIT. It took a team of sharp shooters on the GrassyKnoll to take out JFK. Look at the Twins Murder. It was was waaaay too organized. The terrorists are said to have spoken German. Residents there for a long time, maybe? What German Terrorist movements exists full of ex nazi handlers who work the local natives aligned with a faction of the ancient Teutonic OSS/ CIA/ SS? Working the European end of the street on behalf of the Planet's mega oligarchs, the Cash numero unos of the planet? Who but a devious Dr. Strangelove Mastermind could have created a German based Arab branch of the Meiner Badhof gang? You do know that after WWII, half the SS was moved to Langley, the other half stayed in Europe to watch the Commies. The NWO CIA has had ex nazis running its think tanks since '45..

    Next, SO WHAT if they had Arab names? They still could be GERMANIFIED Arabs. In Germany, having an Arab is like having a Rottweiler. Maybe the poor Arabs are patsies. Maybe the Taliban was a kind of red herring bacteria allowed to grow rife through the middle east so that the Nazi/ NWO OPEC CIA could demonstrate it was high time for Sulfa. It was warrented and they should be allowed to bring in the bleach.

    Why did IQ 80's handlers take out 6k people and blame the Stone Age Al-Qaeda? What did they stand to gain if Arabs were implicated? OK. Think back. What did Hitler gain when he got people to believe that THREE DEAD POLACKS he'd dressed up in GERMAN uniforms were HIS OWN GERMAN BOYS, 'attacked on the border by Nasty old Poland' in 1939? He got to have WWII making his handlers happy.

    What did Lyndon Johnson gain when he made it seem that a simple lightning strike on the high seas was a VIET CONG attack on US Battleships? Answer: He got to send US soldiers to Nam. (before only instructors were there, it was a local civil war, remember?) Then Lyndon was trying to nab the richest oil field of planet which is right off shore south of Nam for his Handlers. The Seven SISTERS wanted that war. Dutch Petroleum, Mobil, Exon, Shell, etc..

    The Commander of that American battleship later said it was just lightning flashes. Said so in his bio! 56,000 American lives later.

    And what did FDR get when he let Japs bomb Hawaii? To get his peacenik people to go to a EUROPEAN war! So here, 2001, what's the cui bonum and in whose lap do the cui bonum goodies possibly land? Follow the money trail of the future. Sniff the air blowing down upon your sons and daughters. What are the other possible future scenarios and cui bonums of re-zoning the mideast into Exxonia? Mobilia? Instead of Iraq and Iran?

    DIRTY AIR is what. Our babies dying of cancer of the lungs, tumors in the brain as every Chinaman gets a Ford.

    They want to sell us cars and gasoline forever. We can run fine on electric cars, ask Ed Begley Jr. but they want us in hock to the company store. Now that sounds pretty venal (of them, not me. I'm just reporting it) but why else would they risk throwing planet into war? Is there anything else they might want over there? Goats? Harem girl with cymbals? Camels? NO. OIL and only OIL. And where is it? IN THE CASPIAN. Russia has it. That's why RUSSIA is in on this. She is selling us the oil, she is drilling it. she enters the world economy and only this war gets her in. (Heck, every war does!) I say let her in, but let her sell us Russian art, fur coats, electric cars, anything but OIL to befoul the planet's air with fuel! FOSSIL FUEL is sheer poison!

    Ten possible reasons why the rich and greedy would commit, or allow the commission of the crimes in new york and d.c. and blame the taliban:

    1.) Prior to sept. 11, 2001: (1) the world was about to enter a deep recession/depression because the super rich could not find a single thing worth investing in. They had tried everything, moved factories to the third world, paying a dollar a day salaries, which threw US citizens out of work. They build/ tried to sell cheaper washingmachines and cars, but as Marx predicted, at that point, NOBODY anywhere could afford them. Sales slowed to a trickle. The rich pulled their money out of everything! They recognized the stock market was bogus. They had to regroup. Depression is when the people stop buying, as they are in debt. That debt is a result of high prices, low wages, the growing inequities, the lack of the ëfamedí Keynesian "trickle down" and the gross exploitation of labor in the USA and all over the world.

    2.) Create an enemy to take the heat. Destruction of the WTC gives the appearance that this phenomenon is the result of the "terrorists" attack. it makes hungry, angry disenfranchised, 'outcrowd' third worlders, who ëwonít work their way up in the world, seem puny, jealous, miserable, backbiting and makes all those who may inwardly also be a little jealous of wealth guilty and quiet.

    4.) The wtc property was sold only two weeks before the atack by the INTERNATIONAL MONEY FUND, (Chase manhattan, Citibank and the ostensible 'owner', the Port Authority of NYC who all together HAD owned the twin towers. They sold for 3.2 billion, a huge profit by the way, for an Eco-disaster bldg that every Arab psychopath was KNOWN to be targeting...! And they sold it to an individual, Silverstein. The ultimate pig in a poke! The property was 30 years old, (from time of opening) and in need of millions of dollars in renovation and repairs.

    5.) the airline industry was about to go bankrupt due to mismanagement, high fuel costs and simply having too many planes for the declining passenger volume. now they can blame their troubles on the wtc attack and get billions of dollars in government bail-out cash.

    (6) George Dubya, IQ 80, and his Dad's friends in the Houston oil community had just consummated the biggest merger of oil related businesses ever, with 3 partners. First, kuwait as a 17% partner, next, cia propriatary global marine, and third, houston based sta fe petrol, all of career CIA guy Bush Sr's oil pals. A war on the arabs might well put them in a position to confiscate many oilfields and other minerals in the middle east, turn Afghanistan to toast, so they can lay pipes wall to wall and get the huge ruski oil deposits to the saudis for processing.

    (7) The "military-industrial complex" Ike warned us about cannott make their huge profits on weapons and other war related hardware without a war and the army can't make fruit salad for its bosom without war.

    8.) Thereís nothing like a "good" war to rally the misinformed public around the corrupt and fraudulent government, taking the focus off of all of the stupidity, criminal conduct and immorality of so many of the "honorable gentlemen" in congress and the other branches of government.

    9.) There is nothing in the social security and medicare trusts except i.o.u's from THE USA to its people. the money was spent long ago, and thereís no way that theretirement and medical needs of the "baby-boomers" can be funded. a huge, drawn out war will provide an excuse as to why the money is gone, ie. to pay for the war. (more lies)

    10.) Taliban heroin isn't controlled by CIA the way Burma, Thai, Laotian Hmong, Golden Triangle china white was (see Air America the movie --again.) CIA is like the MAFIA. They take out the competition. The French Connection movie (rent it) was about NY COPS taking out the other exporters, the Corsicans, destroying them so that all ingresses from "made in Asia by Americans , i.e. loyal patriotic dope, sold to American addicts, goes to cia coffers and cia nugan hand BCCI type CIA banks. Thanks to Ronnieís wife nancy, there are less and less addicts every day so no chance CIA wants most of its diminishing dope biz going to competitors! The CIA has been dealing drugs for 52 years with the help of Meyer Lansky's Syndicate, Nixon, the Bush CIA/OIL lineage, and it's rumored with the help of Nixon's pals' Pepsi Cola bottling companies in Vietnam. < http://www.tomdavisbooks.com/library/50yearsciadrug.htmlhttp://www.tomdavisboo ks.com/library/50yearsciadrug.html

    What happened in New York, is indeed, a terrible act, regardless of whom is responsible. like many webs of deceit, we probably will not know the complete truth until much later. what we do know, is that god allowed it. He is in total control and we must have faith in his judgement. Is america now going to have its wings cut with this assault on innocent, little stone age Afghanistan? These and many other questions will eventually be answered. It is our duty to wait and see the hand of the eternal, and just pray for and seek his protection, mercy, love and deliverance from all that seems to be about to come to pass? are we sure that these NWO types need to rejuggle the borders, organize things, chip us, fiche us? for the right reasons? is it useful to the whole? my spiritual friends say ëeverything that happens is perfect.í My also very spiritual and pragmatic economist friend karl marx said ëmake something better happen than what the men in power are doing for their own solvency. Trickle down is a myth.í

    So, if this is the truth, what do we do? read up, study. . intelligence gathering should have many inputs. SEND this article or others like it to the news agencies. The information you read at the URLS above may be rejected by a few, brain-washed jerks, and it may be reported to those who take orders from the Nazis BY OTHER JERKS who take orders from the Nazis. But so what? If enough of us share the truth, they don't rap knuckles cuz there are too many knuckles to rap.

    Surfing to any of these URLS would be a test to see if your head is on your shoulders or if some one else, some robot behind you, is doing your thinking for you. It is quite possible that when you watch CNN and NBC and ABC and even CBS, you are being PLAYED like a lute and led like a rooster in a Tijuana Cockfight into blinding, killing yourself and your sons..

    Only by researching can you save your family from being part of this bloody spectacle. Only by using that PC to surf will you save your grandkids from living in a burnt fuel cloud that burns holes in their brain. Only by demanding that Detroit build ALTERNATIVE fuel cars will you save your great grandchildren from death by bullet or tumor. Only by volunteering to drive an alt fueled car will you save your sweet air, your planet's agriculture, your descendants. Only by writing your Congressman and saying it in your own, quiet way in a hard copy letter, (they don't read email!) And while you're at it, drop a note to alt fuel car proponent Ed Begley Jr. at c/o Screen Actors Guild, Sunset Blvd. Hollywood 90028 saying "tell me more, who can I write to for details?" Only then, when you've communicated to your elected officials, can you say that you did your job to keep your children from fighting a decade long war that would kill millions, enrich a few billionaires, poison every nation's air with this demon smog making fossil fuel, which has thrown the planet entirely off kilter so that nothing clean grows here so that your grandchildren starve to death.

    We are at a precipice. A cliff is before us. Don't leap into war. Our name is not LEMMING. We do not jump foolishly into the void. We are the Humans of Earth. We have a voice. We have the internet. We type. We read. WE WRITE! USE those TALENTS to stop America from going on another stupid, cruel oil war and one based on lies and fraud at that!

    PEARL HARBOR

    "...everything that the Japanese were planning to do was known to the United States..." ARMY BOARD, 1944
    President Roosevelt (FDR) provoked the attack, knew about it in advance and covered up his failure to warn the Hawaiian commanders. FDR needed the attack to sucker Hitler to declare war, since the public and Congress were overwhelmingly against entering the war in Europe. It was his backdoor to war.

    FDR blinded the commanders at Pearl Harbor and set them up by -

    denying intelligence to Hawaii (HI)
    on Nov 27, misleading the commanders into thinking negotiations with Japan were continuing to prevent them from realizing the war was on
    having false information sent to HI about the location of the Japanese carrier fleet.
    BACKGROUND
    1904 - The Japanese destroyed the Russian navy in a surprise attack in undeclared war.
    1932 - In The Grand Joint Army Navy Exercises the attacker, Admiral Yarnell, attacked with 152 planes a half-hour before dawn 40 miles NE of Kahuku Point and caught the defenders of Pearl Harbor completely by surprise. It was a Sunday.
    1938 - Admiral Ernst King led a carrier-born airstrike from the USS Saratoga successfully against Pearl Harbor in another exercise.
    1940 - FDR ordered the fleet transferred from the West Coast to its exposed position in Hawaii and ordered the fleet remain stationed at Pearl Harbor over complaints by its commander Admiral Richardson that there was inadequate protection from air attack and no protection from torpedo attack. Richardson felt so strongly that he twice disobeyed orders to berth his fleet there and he raised the issue personally with FDR in October and he was soon after replaced. His successor, Admiral Kimmel, also brought up the same issues with FDR in June 1941.
    7 Oct 1940 - Navy IQ analyst McCollum wrote an 8 point memo on how to force Japan into war with US. Beginning the next day FDR began to put them into effect and all 8 were eventually accomplished.
    11 November 1940 - 21 aged British planes destroyed the Italian fleet, including 3 battleships, at their homeport in the harbor of Taranto in Southern Italy by using technically innovative shallow-draft torpedoes.
    11 February 1941 - FDR proposed sacrificing 6 cruisers and 2 carriers at Manila to get into war. Navy Chief Stark objected: "I have previously opposed this and you have concurred as to its unwisdom. Particularly do I recall your remark in a previous conference when Mr. Hull suggested (more forces to Manila) and the question arose as to getting them out and your 100% reply, from my standpoint, was that you might not mind losing one or two cruisers, but that you did not want to take a chance on losing 5 or 6." (Charles Beard PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT AND THE COMING OF WAR 1941, p 424)
    March 1941 - FDR sold munitions and convoyed them to belligerents in Europe -- both acts of war and both violations of international law -- the Lend-Lease Act.
    23 Jun 1941 - Advisor Harold Ickes wrote FDR a memo the day after Germany invaded the Soviet Union, "There might develop from the embargoing of oil to Japan such a situation as would make it not only possible but easy to get into this war in an effective way. And if we should thus indirectly be brought in, we would avoid the criticism that we had gone in as an ally of communistic Russia." FDR was pleased with Admiral Richmond Turner's report read July 22: "It is generally believed that shutting off the American supply of petroleum will lead promptly to the invasion of Netherland East Indies...it seems certain she would also include military action against the Philippine Islands, which would immediately involve us in a Pacific war." On July 24 FDR told the Volunteer Participation Committee, "If we had cut off the oil off, they probably would have gone down to the Dutch East Indies a year ago, and you would have had war." The next day FDR froze all Japanese assets in US cutting off their main supply of oil and forcing them into war with the US. Intelligence information was withheld from Hawaii from this point forward.
    14 August - At the Atlantic Conference, Churchill noted the "astonishing depth of Roosevelt's intense desire for war." Churchill cabled his cabinet "(FDR) obviously was very determined that they should come in.".
    18 October - diary entry by Secretary of Interior Harold Ickes: "For a long time I have believed that our best entrance into the war would be by way of Japan."

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    CODES
    Purple Code - the top Japanese diplomatic machine cipher which used automatic telephone switches to separately and differently encipher each character sent. It was cracked by the Army Signal Intelligence Service (331 men).
    J-19 was the main Japanese diplomatic code book. This columnar code was cracked.
    Coral Machine Cipher or JNA-20 was a simplified version of Purple used by Naval attaches. Only one message deciphered prior to Pearl Harbor has been declassified.
    JN-25 - The Japanese Fleet's Cryptographic System, a.k.a. 5 number code (Sample). JN stands for Japanese Navy, introduced 1 June 1939. This was a very simple old-type code book system used by the American Army and Navy in 1898 and abandoned in 1917 because it was insecure. Version A has a dictionary of 5,600 numbers, words and phrases, each given as a five figure number. These were super-enciphered by addition to random numbers contained in a second code book. The dictionary was only changed once before PH on Dec 1, 1940, to a slightly larger version B but the random book was changed every 3 to 6 months- last on Aug 1. The Japanese blundered away the code when they introduced JN25-B by continuing to use, for 2 months, random books that had been previously solved by the Allies. That was the equivalent of handing over the JN-25B codebook. It was child's play for the Navy group OP-20-G (738 men whose primary responsibility was Japanese naval codes) to reconstruct the exposed dictionary. We recovered the whole thing immediately - in 1994 the NSA published that JN-25BB was completely cracked in December 1940. In January 1941 the US gave Britain two JN-25B code books with keys and techniques for deciphering. The entire Pearl Harbor scheme was laid out in this code. The official US Navy statement on JN-25B is the NAVAL SECURITY GROUP HISTORY TO WORLD WAR II prepared by Captain J. Holtwick in June 1971 who quotes Captain Safford, the chief of OP-20-G, on page 398: "By 1 December 1941 we had the code solved to a readable extent." Churchill wrote "From the end of 1940 the Americans had pierced the vital Japanese ciphers, and were decoding large numbers of their military and diplomatic telegrams."(GRAND ALLIANCE p 598) Safford reported that during 1941 "The Navy COMINT team did a thorough job on the Japanese Navy with no help from the Army."(SRH-149) " ... many pattern messages could be read practically entire with as few as 1500 meanings." (NSA).
    In 1979 the NSA released 2,413 JN-25 orders of the 26,581 intercepted by US between Sept 1 and Dec 4, 1941. The NSA says "We know now that they contained important details concerning the existence, organization, objective, and even the whereabouts of the Pearl Harbor Strike Force." (Parker p 21) Of the over thousand radio messages sent by Tokyo to the attack fleet, only 20 are in the National Archives. All messages to the attack fleet were sent several times, at least one message was sent every odd hour of the day and each had a special serial number. Starting in early November 1941 when the attack fleet assembled and started receiving radio messages, OP-20-G stayed open 24 hours a day and the "First Team" of codebreakers worked on JN-25. In November and early December 1941, OP-20-G spent 85 percent of its effort reading Japanese Navy traffic, 12 percent on Japanese diplomatic traffic and 3 percent on German naval codes. FDR was personally briefed twice a day on JN-25 traffic by his aide, Captain John Beardell, and demanded to see the original raw messages in English. The US Government refuses to identify or declassify any pre-Dec 7, 1941 decrypts of JN-25 on the basis of national security, a half-century after the war.

    AD or Administrative Code wrongly called Admiralty Code was an old four character transposition code used for personnel matters. No important messages were sent in this weak code. Introduced Nov 1938, it was seldom used after Dec 1940.
    Magic - the security designation given to all decoded Japanese diplomatic messages. It's hard not to conclude with historians like Charles Bateson that "Magic standing alone points so irresistibly to the Pearl Harbor attack that it is inconceivable anybody could have failed to forecast the Japanese move." The NSA reached the same conclusion in 1955.
    Ultra - the security designation for military codes. No Pearl Harbor investigation discussed Ultra even though on June 7, 1942 the Chicago Tribune and six other newspapers betrayed the fact we were reading JN-25.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    WARNINGS
    Warnings do no harm and might do inexpressible good
    27 January 1941, Dr. Ricardo Shreiber, the Peruvian envoy in Tokyo told Max Bishop, third secretary of the US embassy that he had just learned from his intelligence sources that there was a war plan involving a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. This information was sent to the State Department and Naval Intelligence and to Admiral Kimmel at Hawaii.
    31 March 1941 - A Navy report by Bellinger and Martin predicted that if Japan made war on the US, they would strike Pearl Harbor without warning at dawn with aircraft from a maximum of 6 carriers. For years Navy planners had assumed that Japan, on the outbreak of war, would strike the American fleet wherever it was. The fleet was the only threat to Japan's plans. Logically, Japan couldn't engage in any major operation with the American fleet on its flank. The strategic options for the Japanese were not unlimited.
    10 July - US Military Attache Smith-Hutton at Tokyo reported Japanese Navy secretly practicing aircraft torpedo attacks against capital ships in Ariake Bay. The bay closely resembles Pearl Harbor.
    July - The US Military Attache in Mexico forwarded a report that the Japanese were constructing special small submarines for attacking the American fleet in Pearl Harbor, and that a training program then under way included towing them from Japan to positions off the Hawaiian Islands, where they practiced surfacing and submerging.
    10 August 1941, the top British agent, code named "Tricycle", Dusko Popov, told the FBI of the planned attack on Pearl Harbor and that it would be soon. The FBI told him that his information was "too precise, too complete to be believed. The questionnaire plus the other information you brought spell out in detail exactly where, when, how, and by whom we are to be attacked. If anything, it sounds like a trap." He also reported that a senior Japanese naval person had gone to Taranto to collect all secret data on the attack there and that it was of utmost importance to them. The info was given to Naval IQ.
    Early in the Fall, Kilsoo Haan, an agent for the Sino-Korean People's League, told Eric Severeid of CBS that the Korean underground in Korea and Japan had positive proof that the Japanese were going to attack Pearl Harbor before Christmas. Among other things, one Korean had actually seen the plans. In late October, Haan finally convinced US Senator Guy Gillette that the Japanese were planning to attack in December or January. Gillette alerted the State Department, Army and Navy Intelligence and FDR personally.
    24 September 1941, the " bomb plot" message in J-19 code from Japan Naval Intelligence to Japan' s consul general in Honolulu requesting grid of exact locations of ships pinpointed for the benefit of bombardiers and torpedo pilots was deciphered. There was no reason to know the EXACT location of ships in harbor, unless to attack them - it was a dead giveaway. Chief of War Plans Turner and Chief of Naval Operations Stark repeatedly kept it and warnings based on it prepared by Safford and others from being passed to Hawaii. The chief of Naval Intelligence Captain Kirk was replaced because he insisted on warning HI. It was lack of information like this that lead to the exoneration of the Hawaii commanders and the blaming of Washington for unpreparedness for the attack by the Army Board and Navy Court. At no time did the Japanese ever ask for a similar bomb plot for any other American military installation. Why the Roosevelt administration allowed flagrant Japanese spying on PH has never been explained, but they blocked 2 Congressional investigations in the fall of 1941 to allow it to continue. The bomb plots were addressed to "Chief of 3rd Bureau, Naval General Staff", marked Secret Intelligence message, and given special serial numbers, so their significance couldn't be missed. There were about 95 ships in port. The text was:

    "Strictly secret.

    "Henceforth, we would like to have you make reports concerning vessels
    along the following lines insofar as possible:

    "1. The waters (of Pearl Harbor) are to be divided roughly into five
    subareas (We have no objections to your abbreviating as much as you
    like.)

    "Area A. Waters between Ford Island and the Arsenal.
    "Area B. Waters adjacent to the Island south and west of Ford Island.
    (This area is on the opposite side of the Island from Area A.)
    "Area C. East Loch.
    "Area D. Middle Loch.
    "Area E. West Loch and the communication water routes.

    "2. With regard to warships and aircraft carriers, we would like to have
    you report on those at anchor (these are not so important) tied up at
    wharves, buoys and in docks. (Designate types and classes briefly. If
    possible we would like to have you make mention of the fact when
    there are two or more vessels along side the same wharf.)"

    Simple traffic analysis of the accelerated frequency of messages from various Japanese consuls gave a another identification of war preparations, from Aug-Dec there were 6 messages from Seattle, 18 from Panama, 55 from Manila and 68 from Hawaii.
    Oct. - Soviet top spy Richard Sorge, the greatest spy in history, informed Kremlin that Pearl Harbor would be attacked within 60 days. Moscow informed him that this was passed to the US. Interestingly, all references to Pearl Harbor in the War Department's copy of Sorge's 32,000 word confession to the Japanese were deleted. NY Daily News, 17 May 1951.
    16 Oct. - FDR grossly humiliated Japan's Ambassador and refused to meet with Premier Konoye to engineer the war party, lead by General Tojo, into power in Japan.
    1 Nov. - JN-25 Order to continue drills against anchored capital ships to prepare to "ambush and completely destroy the US enemy." The message included references to armor-piercing bombs and 'near surface torpedoes.'
    13 Nov. - The German Ambassador to US, Dr. Thomsen an anti-Nazi, told OSS that Pearl Harbor would be attacked.
    14 Nov. - Japanese Merchant Marine was alerted that wartime recognition signals would be in effect Dec 1.
    22 Nov. - Tokyo said to Ambassador Nomura in Washington about extending the deadline for negotiations to November 29: "...this time we mean it, that the deadline absolutely cannot be changed. After that things are automatically going to happen."
    CIA Director Allen Dulles told people that US was warned in mid-November that the Japanese Fleet had sailed east past Tokyo Bay and was going to attack Pearl Harbor. FOIA #F-1998-00977.
    23 Nov. - JN25 order - "The first air attack has been set for 0330 hours on X-day." (Tokyo time or 8 A.M. Honolulu time)
    25 Nov. - British decrypted the Winds setup message sent Nov. 19. The US decoded it Nov. 28. It was a J-19 Code message that there would be an attack and that the signal would come over Radio Tokyo as a weather report - rain meaning war, east (Higashi) meaning US.
    25 Nov. - Secretary of War Stimson noted in his diary "FDR stated that we were likely to be attacked perhaps as soon as next Monday." FDR asked: "the question was how we should maneuver them into the position of firing the first shot without too much danger to ourselves. In spite of the risk involved, however, in letting the Japanese fire the first shot, we realized that in order to have the full support of the American people it was desirable to make sure that the Japanese be the ones to do this so that there should remain no doubt in anyone's mind as to who were the aggressors."
    25 Nov. - Navy Department ordered all US trans-Pacific shipping to take the southern route. PHH 12:317 ADM Turner testified "We sent the traffic down to the Torres Straight, so that the track of the Japanese task force would be clear of any traffic." PHH 4:1942
    25 Nov. - Yamamoto radioed this order in JN-25: " (a) The task force, keeping its movements strictly secret and maintaining close guard against submarines and aircraft, shall advance into Hawaiian waters and upon the very opening of hostilities, shall attack the main force of the United States Fleet in Hawaii and deal it a mortal blow. The raid is planned for dawn on X-day -- exact date to be given by later order. (b) Should the negotiations with the US prove successful, the task force shall hold itself in readiness forthwith to return and reassemble. (c) The task force will move out of Hitokappu Wan on the morning of 26 November and advance to the standing-by position on the afternoon of 4 December and speedily complete refueling." ( Order to sail - scan from the PHA Congressional Hearings Report, vol 1 p 180, transcript p 437-8) This was decoded by the British on November 25 and the Dutch on November 27. When it was decoded by the US is a national secret, however, on November 26 Naval Intelligence reported the concentration of units of the Japanese fleet at an unknown port ready for offensive action.
    26 Nov. 3 A.M. - Churchill sent an urgent secret message to FDR, probably containing above message. This message caused the greatest agitation in DC. Of Churchill's voluminous correspondence with FDR, this is the only message that has not been released (on the grounds that it would damage national security). Stark testified that "On November 26 there was received specific evidence of the Japanese intention to wage offensive war against Great Britain and the United States." C.I.A. Director William Casey, who was in the OSS in 1941, in his book THE SECRET WAR AGAINST HITLER, p 7, wrote "The British had sent word that a Japanese fleet was steaming east toward Hawaii." Washington, in an order of Nov 26, ordered both US aircraft carriers, the Enterprise and the Lexington out of Pearl Harbor "as soon as possible". This order included stripping Pearl of 50 planes or 40 percent of its already inadequate fighter protection. In response to Churchill's message, FDR secretly cabled him that afternoon - "Negotiations off. Services expect action within two weeks." Note that the only way FDR could have linked negotiations with service action, let alone have known the timing of the action, was if he had the message to sail. In other words, the only service action contingent on negotiations was Pearl Harbor.
    26 Nov. - the "most fateful document " was Hull's ultimatum that Japan must withdraw from Indochina and all China. FDR's Ambassador to Japan called this "The document that touched the button that started the war."
    27 Nov. - Secretary of War Stimson sent a confused and confusing hostile action possible or DO-DON'T warning. The Navy Court found this message directed attention away from Pearl Harbor, rather than toward it. One purpose of the message was to mislead HI into believing negotiations were continuing. The Army which could not do reconnaisance was ordered to and the Navy which could was ordered not to. The Army was ordered on sabotage alert, which specifically precluded attention to outside threat. Navy attention was misdirected 5000 miles from HI. DC repeated, no less than three times as a direct instruction of the President, "The US desires that Japan commit the first overt act Period." It was unusual that FDR directed this warning, a routine matter, to Hawaii which is proof that he knew other warnings were not sent. A simple question--what Japanese "overt act" was FDR expecting at Pearl Harbor? He ordered sabotage prevented and subs couldn't enter, that leaves air attack. The words "overt act" disclose FDR's intent - not just that Japan be allowed to attack but that they inflict damage on the fleet. This FDR order to allow a Japanese attack was aid to the enemy - explicit treason.
    29 Nov.- Hull sat in Layfayette Park across from the White House with ace United Press reporter Joe Leib and showed him a message stating that Pearl Harbor would be attacked on December 7. This could well have been the Nov. 26 message from Churchill. The New York Times in its 12/8/41 PH report on page 13 under the headline "Attack Was Expected" stated the US had known that Pearl Harbor was going to be attacked the week before. Perhaps Leib wasn't the only reporter Hull told.
    29 Nov. - The FBI embassy tap made an intercept of an uncoded plain-text Japanese telephone conversation in which

    an Embassy functionary (Kurusu) asked 'Tell me, what zero hour is. Otherwise, I won't be able to carry on diplomacy.' The voice from Tokyo (K. Yamamoto) said softly, 'Well then, I will tell you. Zero hour is December 8 (Tokyo time, ie, December 7 US time) at Pearl Harbor.' (US Navy translation)
    30 Nov. US Time (or 1 Dec. Tokyo time) - The Japanese fleet was radioed this Imperial Naval Order (JN-25): "JAPAN, UNDER THE NECESSITY OF HER SELF-PRESERVATION AND SELF-DEFENSE, HAS REACHED A POSITION TO DECLARE WAR ON THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA." ( Congress Appendix D, p 415). US ally China also recovered it in plain text from a shot-down Japanese Army plane near Canton that evening. This caused an emergency Imperial Conference because they knew the Chinese would give the information to GB and US. In a related J-19 message the next day, the US translated elaborate instructions from Japan dealing in precise detail with the method of internment of American and British nationals in Asia "on the outbreak of war with England and the United States"
    1 Dec. - Office of Naval Intelligence, ONI, Twelfth Naval District in San Francisco found the missing Japanese fleet by correlating reports from the four wireless news services and several shipping companies that they were getting strange signals west of Hawaii. The Soviet Union also knew the exact location of the Japanese fleet because they asked the Japanese in advance to let one of their ships pass (Layton p 261). This info was most likely given to them by US because Sorge's spy ring was rolled up November 14. All long-range PBY patrols from the Aleutians were ordered stopped on Dec 6 to prevent contact.
    1 Dec. - Foreign Minister Togo cabled Washington Ambassador Nomura to continue negotiations "to prevent the U.S. from becoming unduly suspicious."
    1 Dec. - The tanker Shiriya, which had been added to the Striking Force in an order intercepted Nov 14, radioed "proceeding to a position 30.00 N, 154.20 E. Expect to arrive at that point on 3 December." (near HI) The fact that this message is in the National Archives destroys the myth that the attack fleet maintained radio silence. They were not ordered to (Order 820). Serial numbers prove that the Striking Force sent over 663 radio messages between Nov 16 and Dec 7 or about 1 per hour. The NSA has not released any raw intercepts because the headers would prove that the Striking Force did not maintain radio silence. On Nov 29 the Hiyei sent one message to the Commander of the 3rd fleet; on Nov 30 the Akagi sent several messages to its tankers - see page 474 of the Hewitt Report. Stinnett in DAY OF DECEIT (p 209) found over 100 messages from the Striking Force in the National Archives. All Direction Finding reports from HI have been crudely cut out. Reports from Dec 5 show messages sent from the Striking Force picked up by Station Cast, P.I.
    From traffic analysis, HI reported that the carrier force was at sea and in the North. THE MOST AMAZING FACT is that in reply to that report, MacArthur's command sent a series of three messages, Nov 26, 29, Dec 2, to HI lying about the location of the carrier fleet - saying it was in the South China Sea. This false information, which the NSA calls inexplicable, was the true reason that HI was caught unawares. Duane Whitlock, who is still alive in Iowa, sent those messages.
    There were a large number of other messages that gave the location of the Striking Force by alluding to the Aleutians, the North Pacific and various weather systems near HI.
    1 Dec. - FDR cut short his scheduled ten day vacation after 1 day to meet with Hull and Stark. The result of this meeting was reported on 2 Dec. by the Washington Post: "President Roosevelt yesterday assumed direct command of diplomatic and military moves relating to Japan." This politically damaging move was necessary to prevent the mutiny of conspirators.
    1 Dec. 3:30 P.M. FDR read Foreign Minister Togo's message to his ambassador to Germany: "Say very secretly to them that there is extreme danger between Japan & Anglo-Saxon nations through some clash of arms, add that the time of this war may come quicker than anyone dreams." This was in response to extreme German pressure on November 29 for Japan to strike the US and promises to join with Japan in war against the US. The second of its three parts has never been released. The message says it contains the plan of campaign. This is 1 of only 3 known DIPLOMATIC intercepts that specified PH as target. It was so interesting, FDR kept a copy.
    2 Dec. 2200 Tokyo time- Here is a typical JN-25 ships-in-harbor report sent to attack fleet, words in parenthesis were in the original: "Striking Force telegram No. 994. Two battleships (Oklahoma, Nevada), 1 aircraft carrier (Enterprise) 2 heavy cruisers, 12 destroyers sailed. The force that sailed on 22 November returned to port. Ships at anchor Pearl Harbor p.m. 28 November were 6 battleships (2 Maryland class, 2 California class, 2 Pennsylvania class), 1 aircraft carrier (Lexington), 9 heavy cruisers (5 San Fransisco class, 3 Chicago class, 1 Salt Lake class), 5 light cruisers (4 Honolulu class, 1 Omaha class)"
    2 Dec. - Commander of the Combined Imperial Fleet Yamamoto radioed the attack fleet in plain (uncoded) Japanese Climb Niitakayama 1208 (Dec 8 Japanese time, Dec 7 our time). Thus the US knew EXACTLY when the war would start. Even HI knew. Mount Niitaka was the highest mountain in the Japanese Empire - 13,113 feet.
    2 Dec. - General Hein Ter Poorten, the commander of the Netherlands East Indies Army gave the Winds setup message to the US War Department. The Dutch intercept station was Kamer 14 on Java. The Dutch, British and Americans all had liaison officers at each others' Far Eastern code centers and secret radio contact with each other (British FECB at Singapore; and US at Station Cast, Philippines) throughout 1941. These centers helped each other. The Australians had a center in Melbourne and the Chinese also broke JN-25. A Dutch sub had visually tracked the attack fleet to the Kurile Islands in early November and this info was passed to DC, but DC did not give it to HI. The intercepts the Dutch gave the US are still classified in RG 38, Box 792.
    2 Dec - Japanese order No. 902 specified that old JN-25 additive tables version 7 would continue to be used alongside version 8 when the latter was introduced on December 4. This means the US read all messages to the Striking Force through the attack.
    4 Dec. - In the early hours, Ralph Briggs at the Navy's East Coast Intercept station, received the "East Winds, Rain" message, the Winds Execute, which meant war. He put it on the TWX circuit immediately and called his commander. This message was deleted from the files. One of the main coverups of Pearl Harbor was to make this message disappear. Japanese Dispatch # 7001. In response to the Winds Execute, the Office of US Naval IQ had all Far Eastern stations (Hawaii not informed) destroy their codes and classified documents including the Tokyo Embassy.
    4 Dec. - Kilsoo Haan called Maxwell Hamilton at the State Department and told him that the Korean underground had information that the Japanese would attack Pearl Harbor the coming weekend.
    4 Dec. - The Dutch invoked the ADB joint defense agreement when the Japanese crossed the magic line of 100 East and 10 North. The U.S. was at war with Japan 3 days before they were at war with us.
    4 Dec. - General Ter Poorten sent all the details of the Winds Execute command to Colonel Weijerman, the Dutch military attache' in Washington to pass on to the highest military circles. Weijerman personally gave it to Marshall, Chief of Staff of the War Department.
    4 Dec - US General Thorpe at Java sent four messages warning of the PH attack. DC ordered him to stop sending warnings.
    5 Dec. - All Japanese international shipping had returned to home port.
    5 December - In the morning FDR dictated a letter to Wendell Wilkie for the Australian Prime Minister, "There is always the Japanese to consider. The situation is definitely serious and there might be an armed clash at any moment...Perhaps the next four or five days will decide the matters."
    5 Dec. - At a Cabinet meeting, Secretary of the Navy Knox said, "Well, you know Mr. President, we know where the Japanese fleet is?" "Yes, I know" said FDR. " I think we ought to tell everybody just how ticklish the situation is. We have information as Knox just mentioned...Well, you tell them what it is, Frank." Knox became very excited and said, "Well, we have very secret information that the Japanese fleet is out at sea. Our information is..." and then a scowling FDR cut him off. (Infamy, Toland, 1982, ch 14 sec 5)
    5 Dec. - Washington Star reporter Constantine Brown quotes a friend in his book The Coming of the Whirlwind p 291, "This is it! The Japs are ready to attack. We've broken their code, and we've read their ORDERS."
    5 Dec. - Lt. Howard Brown of Station Cast in the Philippines received urgent request from Washington to listen for a short message from Tokyo which ended with the English word "stop". He heard the message at 11:30 PM Hawaiian time Dec 6. This is the Hidden Word Code set up in a message of November 27 (e.g. in code, Roosevelt=Miss Kimiko). The message was: "Relations between Japan and the following countries are on the brink of catastrophe: Britain and the United States."
    6 December - This 18 November J19 message was translated by the Army:
    "1. The warships at anchor in the Harbor on the 15th were as I told you in my No.219 on that day. Area A -- A battleship of the Oklahoma class entered and one tanker left port. Area C -- 3 warships of the heavy cruiser class were at anchor.
    2. On the 17th the Saratoga was not in harbor. The carrier Enterprise, or some other vessel was in Area C. Two heavy cruisers of the Chicago class, one of the Pensacola class were tied up at docks 'KS'. 4 merchant vessels were at anchor in area D.
    3. At 10:00 A.M. on the morning of the 17th, 8 destroyers were observed entering the Harbor..." Of course this information was not passed to HI.
    6 Dec. - A Dec 2 request from Tokyo to HI for information about the absence of barrage balloons, anti-torpedo nets and air recon was translated by the Army.
    6 Dec. - at 9:30 P.M FDR read the first 13 parts of the decoded Japanese diplomatic declaration of war and said "This means war." What kind of President would do nothing? When he returned to his 34 dinner guests he said, "The war starts tomorrow."
    6 Dec. - the war cabinet: FDR, top advisor Hopkins, Stimson, Marshall, Secretary of the Navy Knox, with aides John McCrea and Frank Beatty "deliberately sat through the night of 6 December 1941 waiting for the Japs to strike." (Infamy ch 16 sec 2)
    7 December - A message from the Japanese Consul in Budapest to Tokyo:
    "On the 6th, the American Minister presented to the Government of this country a British Government communique to the effect that a state of war would break out on the 7th." The communique was the Dec 5th War Alert from the British Admiralty. It has disappeared. This triple priority alert was delivered to FDR personally. The Mid-East British Air Marshall told Col. Bonner Fellers on Saturday that he had received a secret signal that America was coming into the war in 24 hours. Churchill summarized the message in GRAND ALLIANCE page 601 as listing the two fleets attacking British targets and "Other Japanese fleets...also at sea on other tasks." There only were three other fleets- for Guam, the Philippines and HI. 2 paragraphs of the alert, British targets only, are printed in AT DAWN WE SLEPT, Prange, p 464. There is no innocent purpose for our government to hide this document.
    7 December 1941 very early Washington time, there were two Marines, an emergency special detail, stationed outside the Japanese Naval Attache's door. 9:30 AM Aides begged Stark to send a warning to Hawaii. He did not. 10 AM FDR read the 14th part, 11 A.M. FDR read the 15th part setting the time for the declaration of war to be delivered to the State Department at 1 PM, about dawn Pearl Harbor time, and did nothing. Navy Secretary Knox was given the 15th part at 11:15 A.M. with this note from the Office of Naval IQ: "This means a sunrise attack on Pearl Harbor today." Naval IQ also transmitted this prediction to Hull and about 8 others, including the White House (PHH 36:532). At 10:30 AM Bratton informed Marshall that he had a most important message (the 15th part) and would bring it to Marshall's quarters but Marshall said he would take it at his office. At 11:25 Marshall reached his office according to Bratton. Marshall testified that he had been riding horses that morning but he was contradicted by Harrison, McCollum, and Deane. Marshall who had read the first 13 parts by 10 PM the prior night, perjured himself by denying that he had even received them. Marshall, in the face of his aides' urgent supplications that he warn Hawaii, made strange delays including reading and re-reading all of the 10 minute long 14 Part Message (and some parts several times) which took an hour and refused to use the scrambler phone on his desk, refused to send a warning by the fast, more secure Navy system but sent Bratton three times to inquire how long it would take to send his watered down warning - when informed it would take 30 or 40 minutes by Army radio, he was satisfied (that meant he had delayed enough so the warning wouldn't reach Pearl Harbor until after the 1 PM Washington time deadline). The warning was in fact sent commercial without priority identification and arrived 6 hours late. This message reached all other addressees, like the Philippines and Canal Zone, in a timely manner.
    7 December - 7:55 A.M. Hawaii time AIR RAID PEARL HARBOR. THIS IS NOT DRILL.
    7 December - 1:50 P.M. Washington time. Harry Hopkins, who was the only person with FDR when he received the news of the attack by telephone from Knox, wrote that FDR was unsurprised and expressed "great relief." Eleanor Roosevelt wrote about December 7th in This I Remember p 233, that FDR became "in a way more serene." In the NY Times Magazine of October 8, 1944 she wrote: "December 7 was...far from the shock it proved to the country in general. We had expected something of the sort for a long time."
    7 December - 3:00 PM "The (war cabinet) conference met in not too tense an atmosphere because I think that all of us believed that in the last analysis the enemy was Hitler...and that Japan had given us an opportunity." Harry Hopkins, Dec. 7 Memo (Roosevelt and Hopkins R Sherwood, p. 431)
    7 December - 9 hours later, MacArthur's entire air force was caught by surprise and wiped out in the Philippines. His reaction to the news of Pearl Harbor was quite unusual - he locked himself in his room all morning and refused to meet with his air commander General Brereton, and refused to attack Japanese forces on Formosa even under orders from the War Department. MacArthur gave three conflicting orders that ensured the planes were on the ground most of the morning. MacArthur used radar tracking of the Japanese planes at 140, 100, 80, 60, down to 20 miles to time his final order and ensure his planes were on the ground. Strategically, the destruction of half of all US heavy bombers in the world was more important than naval damage in Pearl Harbor. Either MacArthur had committed the greatest blunder in military history or he was under orders to allow his forces to be destroyed. If it were the greatest blunder in history, it is remarkable how he escaped any reprimand, kept his command and got his fourth star and Congressional Medal of Honor shortly later. Prange argued, "How could the President ensure a successful Japanese attack unless he confided in the commanders and persuaded them to allow the enemy to proceed unhindered?"
    7 December - 8:30 PM, FDR said to his cabinet, "We have reason to believe that the Germans have told the Japanese that if Japan declares war, they will too. In other words, a declaration of war by Japan automatically brings..." at which point he was interrupted, but his expectation and focus is clear. Mrs. Frances Perkins, Secretary of Labor, observed later about FDR: "I had a deep emotional feeling that something was wrong, that this situation was not all it appeared to be." Mrs. Perkins was obsessed by Roosevelt's strange reactions that night and remarked particularly on the expression he had:" In other words, there have been times when I associated that expression with a kind of evasiveness."
    FDR met with CBS newsman Edward R. Murrow at midnight. Murrow, who had seen many statesmen in crises, was surprised at FDR's calm reaction. After chatting about London, they reviewed the latest news from PH and then FDR tested Murrow's news instincts with these 2 bizarre giveaway questions: "Did this surprise you?" Murrow said yes. FDR: "Maybe you think it didn't surprise us?" FDR gave the impression that the attack itself was not unwelcome. This is the same high-strung FDR that got polio when convicted of perjury; the same FDR that was bedridden for a month when he learned Russia was to be attacked; the same FDR who couldn't eat or drink when he got the Japanese order to sail.
    8 December - In a conversation with his speechwriter Rosenman, FDR "emphasized that Hitler was still the first target, but he feared that a great many Americans would insist that we make the war in the Pacific at least equally important with the war against Hitler."
    Later, Jonathan Daniels, administrative assistant and press secretary to FDR said, "The blow was heavier than he had hoped it would necessarily be...But the risks paid off; even the loss was worth the price..."
    FDR reminisced with Stalin at Tehran on November 30, 1943, saying "if the Japanese had not attacked the US he doubted very much if it would have been possible to send any American forces to Europe." Compare this statement with what FDR said at the Atlantic Conference 4 months before Pearl: "Everything was to be done to force an 'incident' to justify hostitlities." Given that a Japanese attack was the only possible incident, then FDR had said he would do it.

    COMMISSIONS AND COVERUP
    Two and only two courts of law have decided the issue of whether FDR and Washington or the commanders in Hawaii were responsible for the Pearl Harbor disaster. Both the Navy Court and the Army Board found Washington guilty (in 1944).
    NAVY Court of Inquiry
    !!!Top Secret ARMY Board Report!!! (30K), Oct, 1944, "Now let us turn to the fateful period between November 27 and December 6, 1941. In this period numerous pieces of information came to our State, War, and Navy Departments in all of their Top ranks indicating precisely the intentions of the Japanese including the probable exact hour and date of the attack. " In response to this report, Marshall offered his resignation - the sign of a guilty conscience. Marshall testified at the MacArthur hearings that he considered loyalty to his chief superior to loyalty to his country.
    JOINT CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE on the Investigation of the Pearl Harbor Attack, Nov 15, 1945 to May 31, 1946, proved that there had been so much reversion of testimony, coverup and outright lies that the truth would have to wait until all Pearl Harbor records were declassified.
    Most of the conspirators were military men, all men of FDR's own choice, men who only followed orders and FDR never delegated authority. Stark, in answer to charges that he denied IQ to Hawaii, publicly offerred a Nuremberg defense in August 1945 that everything he did pre-Dec 7, 1941 was on FDR's orders. The handfull of military men in DC responsible for the disaster at Pearl Harbor were directly under the control of FDR and were later promoted and protected from investigation; promoted with FDR's full knowledge that they were responsible for not warning Hawaii. On the record, Intelligence tried to warn HI scores of times but were prevented by FDR's men.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    STATISTICS - ROOSEVELT WAS DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FOLLOWING:
    American
    Deaths: 2403; Wounded 1,178.
    Eighteen ships were sunk or seriously damaged including 5 battleships (USS Arizona photo).

    188 planes were destroyed and 162 were damaged.

    Japanese
    Out of an attack force of 31 ships and 353 raiding planes the Japanese lost:
    64 deaths,
    29 planes,
    5 midget submarines.

    CONCLUSION - ROOSEVELT WAS A TRAITOR
    The US was warned by, at least, the governments of Britain, Netherlands, Australia, Peru, Korea and the Soviet Union that a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor was coming. All important Japanese codes were broken. FDR and Marshall and others knew the attack was coming, allowed it and covered up their knowledge. It's significant that both the the chief of OP-20-G Safford and Friedman of Army SIS, the two people in the world that knew what we decoded, said that FDR knew Pearl Harbor was going to be attacked.

    Pearl Harbor was not about war with Japan -
    It was about war with GERMANY
    Most important was the promise FDR had made to the American people - solemnly given and repeated--not to send their sons into foreign war unless attacked. He did not mind violating that pledge. He merely feared the political effect of the violation. Alsop and Kintner, White House columnist pets, had written a short time before that "He (Roosevelt) does not feel he can openly violate them (his pledges). But he can get around them the smart way." They explained this meant getting the Germans to shoot first. Then he could shoot back. But it was clear to him by November that the Germans were not going to shoot first. But FDR knew that he could force the Japanese to do so.
    HITLER WOULD NOT DECLARE WAR IF U.S. UNBEATABLE
    OBJECTIVE: War with Germany. How do you bait Hitler to declare war on you? You don't get it by looking unbeatable!
    Direct provocation in Atlantic had failed - Hitler didn't bite.
    FDR knew from magic that if Japan attacked, Germany would declare war.
    Therefore: the problem was how to maneuver Japan into firing the first shot or make the first overt act.
    Japan must succeed or Hitler would renege.
    War with Japan was a given because they had to attack the Philippines. If Japan's fleet were destroyed, it would defeat the purpose. It would have been obvious suicide for Hitler to declare war if Japan were crippled - it would allow the US to attack him without even the possibility of a two-front war. That was what he had just been avoiding for months. The plan could only work if Japan's attack succeeded. The lure of a weakened US in a two-front war focused on Japan seemed to make a German war declaration cost-free. But it was all a trap - FDR was always going to ignore Japan and go after Hitler, for his ultimate goal was to save his beloved Soviet Communism.

    In November FDR ordered the Red Cross Disaster Relief director to secretly prepare for massive casualties at Pearl Harbor because he was going to let it be attacked. When he protested to the President, President Roosevelt told him that "the American people would never agree to enter the war in Europe unless they were attack [sic] within their own borders." See U.S. Naval Institute - Naval History - Advance Warning? The Red Cross Connection by Daryl S. Borgquist
    CHURCHILL--FDR KNEW. Did FDR know that Pearl Harbor was a Japanese target? Answer: FDR planned Pearl Harbor to be their target. He ordered the ships in and the carriers out. Churchill wrote about Pearl Harbor that FDR and his top advisors "knew the full and immediate purpose of their enemy." (GRAND ALLIANCE p 603) Churchill's entire discussion of Pearl Harbor was a justification of treason, e.g.: "A Japanese attack upon the U.S. was a vast simplification of (FDR's and advisors') problems and their duty. How can we wonder that they regarded the actual form of the attack, or even its scale, as incomparably less important than the fact that the whole American nation would be united...?"

    J. Edgar Hoover told his friends in early 1942 that FDR had known about the Pearl Harbor plan since the early fall. It was totally in character for FDR to concoct such a plan. Not only had the US Senate already censured FDR for utterly lacking moral perspective, but as Walter Lippmann wrote: "his purposes are not simple and his methods are not direct." To get into the war, FDR used the Atlantic Fleet as bait to be shot up; Pearl Harbor was the same thing in the Pacific. US Admiral Bloch testified "The Japanese only destroyed a lot of old hardware. In a sense they did us a favor." This was obviously FDR's view as well, because on 7 December at 2:15 PM, minutes after hearing of the attack and before any damage reports were in, FDR called Lord Halifax at the British Embassy and told him "Most of the fleet was at sea...none of their newer ships were in harbour."

    COVERUP BY SECRECY. Why does the government refuse to release all the messages to the attack fleet, or any JN-25 messages decoded before Dec 7? There is absolutely nothing about national security to hide in JN-25. It is a trivial and worthless 19th century code. The techniques for cracking it had been published world-wide in 1931. The US government has proudly showed how they used JN-25 decrypts after December 8 to win the Battle of Midway which occurred 7 months after Pearl Harbor. Therefore, there is nothing intrinsic about the code itself, the means of cracking it, or the fact that we cracked it, that has any national security implications of any nature. What is the difference between decrypts from the Purple machine and decrypts from JN-25? The answer is simply that the JN-25 messages contained the final operational details of the Pearl Harbor attack, whereas the Purple did not.

    WHAT ARE THEY HIDING? Why won't they let the truth out? Such secrecy breeds mistrust in government. The only thing that is left to hide are JN-25 decrypts and worksheets showing that the US and Britain monitored the Japanese attack fleet all the way to Pearl Harbor. That is the scandal. That is the big secret. It raises the issue of whether the NSA is accessory after the fact to treason. However, the secrecy and misdirection by the NSA about our capabilities with JN-25B and pre-war messages proves there is something very wrong. The NSA has systematically lied about the size of the JN25 books by a factor of 4 and about how many codebreakers worked on the code in 1941 by a factor of 22. The NSA is an evil Gestapo that is committed neither to truth nor open government nor the rule of law. We live an Orwellian history in which treason is honored, in which FDR's murder of thousands of young innocent men is good. In a word, we are no different from the tyranny we decry. A self-governing people must have truth to make proper decisions. By subverting the truth, the National Security Agency is subverting our Democracy.

    He who controls the past, controls the future. He who controls the present, controls the past. - Orwell
    Tokyo had to send the daily bomb-plots, cabled from its Honolulu consulate, to the attack fleet by JN-25 radio messages. The pilots had to get their target information. "The news of the position of enemy ships in Pearl Harbor comes again and again." - Lt. Cmdr. Chigusa, executive officer of the attack fleet's Akigumo in his diary, December 4, 1941 (At Dawn We Slept, G. Prange, page 453). FDR got it, too. FDR knew the Japanese pilots' targets as well as they did, because he got their bomb-plots when they did. He had their specific targets, ship by ship, in his hands at the White House. These messages would prove absolutely that FDR knew that the attack fleet's target was Pearl Harbor and therefore are not released. The unnecessary and illogical secrecy about pre-December 7, 1941, JN-25 decoding is conclusive evidence that there was wrongdoing at the highest levels.

    FDR was a traitor for maneuvering Japan into war with US - and that is known and admitted - FDR was a traitor for sacrificing American lives, for putting America in danger, for usurping the Constitutional power of Congress to make war. Day of infamy, indeed; he chose his words precisely with a hidden double-meaning. Four days before the attack, FDR could have sent telegrams of condolence to the families of the sailors he was going to allow to be killed. Even today there is a coverup, based on a transparently bogus excuse of national security, that shows that our government cannot face the truth about what happened a half-century ago. Truth we owe the men of Pearl Harbor. Until we tell the full truth, we dishonor them and every soldier and sailor who gave their life for their country. Should their lives have been sacrificed for treason and no one know, they had died in vain. If their honor cover treason - we are not a nation of law. The Air Corps in the Philippines and the Navy at Pearl were FDR's bait, the oil embargo was his stick, the end of negotiations was the tripwire in FDR's game of shame - a game of death for so many. Roosevelt aided and abetted the murder of thousands of Americans.

    Professor Robert Kelso

    "Very late on a cold, dark night in December, a British emissary was driven through the dreary streets of Washington. Inside his diplomatic pouch he carried a secret message marked Most Urgent Personal and Secret to the President. It was a triple priority message from the British Admiralty in London that the United States of America was going to be attacked at Pearl Harbor on December 7th. Lord Halifax was swiftly shown in to the White House and conferred with Franklin Roosevelt. Roosevelt's hopes soared; his long-laid plans were about to be fulfilled. It was December 5th, 1941."
    From the Introduction
    This definitive Revisionist Bible presents incontrovertible proof that the United States read the main Japanese fleet code JN-25 prior to Pearl Harbor. It shows exactly how it was broken. This book by far has more recent documents, more secret documents, and more important secret documents than any book on Pearl Harbor ever written. It is the best book on the event that changed history, the most important public crime of modern times, our entry into World War II. This resulted in the immediate loss of over thirty million lives, an ultimate cost of more than fifteen trillion dollars, incredible suffering, and a military-scientific-technological-industrial aftermath which may wipe out the human race.

    Revelations from Pearl Harbor Mother of All Conspiracies:
    The publication for the first time of the November 26, 1941, Navy intelligence analysis proving Washington knew the Japanese carrier fleet was going to attack Pearl Harbor.

    Explosive disclosures from the most secret codebook never meant to be released.
    For the first time, the publication of the previously blacked out portions of SRH-149 Communications Intelligence in the United States, A Brief History by Laurence F. Safford, the fundamental document of Pearl Harbor.

    The scheme Washington used for confusing radar at Hawaii on December 7th.
    The publication for the first time of more than a hundred JN-25B messages in their original 1941 pre-Pearl Harbor decryption.

    The treason at the Battle Midway.

    But we in it shall be remembered--
    We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
    For he that today sheds his blood for me
    Shall be my brother.

    SS,

    I'm all for that. I am an engineer working on power supplies. I am
    in charge of about a megawatt of Motor Generator Sets. We could change how we use our energy. Unfortunately, all of this stuff works in real slow motion.

    My company needs the business, so go for the alternative energy.
