Global Nuclear Coverup

Posted by thefungus on April 2, 2008

Leuren Moret claims to be an independent U.S. scientist who works on radiation and public health issues. She claims to have been a staff scientist at two nuclear weapons laboratories. 5 years at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory,and two years at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Inquiry under the California Public Records Act at the Berkeley Laboratory was referred to retired UC Berkeley Professor Emeritus Ian Carmichael because Moret was not considered a Laboratory employee during her graduate studies in geology there. These studies were also much less than the claimed 5 years and did not involve radiation or uranium. The Livermore Laboratory stated that Moret was a Senior Scientific Technologist in the Center for Applied Scientific Computing and that her employment from 1989 through 1990 was for less than a year. Neither of these positions rises to the claimed level of Staff Scientist.

Education and Training

Ms. Moret earned her Bachelor of Science in Geology at University of California, Davis in 1968, and her Master of Arts in Near Eastern Studies from University of California, Berkeley in 1978. Ms. Moret worked at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory for 10 months from 1989-90 as a Senior Scientific Technologist in the Center for Applied Scientific Computing. She has stated that atomic testing has resulted in a rise of autism and lowering of SAT test scores, and that depleted uranium use in the Middle East and elsewhere in the world could cause birth defects across the affected area for millions of years.

Ms. Moret is a critic of the US use of depleted uranium. In 2003, she testified at the International Criminal Tribunal for Afghanistan held in Japan. She was a presenter at the World Depleted Uranium Weapons Conference in Hamburg, Germany, and at the World Court of Women at the World Social Forum in Bombay, India, in January 2004. She is a Contributing Editor to GLOBAL OUTLOOK, former member of the Community Environmental Advisory Commission for City of Berkeley, and a former president of the Association for Women Geoscientists.

It’s Such A Fraud One Can Only Laugh

Posted by thefungus on March 31, 2008

“I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country.
A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit.
Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation,
therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men.
We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely
controlled and dominated governments in the civilized world.
No longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by
conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by
the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men.”

~Woodrow Wilson

“No End In Sight” – another great, disturbing documentary

Posted by thefungus on January 25, 2008

200px-no_end_in_sight_poster.jpg
No End in Sight is a documentary film that concentrates on alleged mistakes made by the Bush administration in the two-to-three-month period following the invasion of Iraq in March 2003. The film portrays these errors as the cause of ensuing problems in Iraq, such as the rise of the insurgency, a lack of security and basic utilities for many Iraqis, sectarian violence and the risk of complete civil war.
To a large extent the film consists of interviews with the people who were involved in the initial Iraqi occupation authority and the ORHA (the Office for Reconstruction and Humanitarian Assistance, later replaced by the CPA, the Coalition Provisional Authority). 35 people are interviewed, many of them former Bush loyalists who have since become disillusioned by what they experienced at the time. In particular, many of those interviewed claim that the inexperience of the core members of the Bush administration—and their refusal to seek, acknowledge or accept input from more experienced outsiders—was at the root of the disastrous occupation effort.
Among those interviewed are
▪ General Jay Garner, who briefly ran the reconstruction before being replaced by L. Paul Bremer
▪ Ambassador Barbara Bodine, who was placed in charge of the Baghdad embassy
▪ Richard Armitage, former deputy secretary of the State Department
▪ Robert Hutchings, former chairman of the National Intelligence Council
▪ Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, Colin Powell’s former chief of staff
▪ Col. Paul Hughes, who worked in the ORHA and then the CPA
According to No End in Sight, there were three especially grave mistakes made by L. Paul Bremer, the head of the CPA:
▪ A move toward “De-Ba’thification” in the early stages of the occupation. Saddam Hussein’s ruling Ba’th Party counted as its members a huge majority of Iraq’s governmental employees, including educational officials and some teachers. By order of the CPA, these skilled and ultimately apolitical individuals were banned from holding any positions in Iraq’s new government.
▪ Not providing enough troops to maintain order. The looting of Iraqi museums sent chilling signals to the average Iraqi, telling them that the American forces did not intend to maintain law and order. And arms depots were available for pillaging by anyone who wanted weapons and explosives.
▪ The disbanding of the Iraqi Army, which made 500,000 young men with weapons and training unemployed and bitter. Many of them decided that their best chance for a future was to join or, together with the rest of their unit, become a militia force.
The film cites these three mistakes, as well as many others, as the cause of the rapid deterioration of occupied Iraq into chaos.

The Infinite End

Posted by thefungus on December 3, 2007

If one pursues anything within the realm of Evil as an end in and of itself they will be damned in the emptiness of infinity; however, if one uses the Evil and its devices as a means to the greater end they will be rewarded with the fulfillment of infinity. Read the rest of this entry »

An inherent Goodness?

Posted by thefungus on November 21, 2007

This is an interesting study referring to human socialization, morals, values and the Goodness. Does this study show that we have an inherent value system that is passed on to us just like DNA… some kind of guiding energy perhaps that is ingrained in the human experience?

The Consequences

Posted by thefungus on November 6, 2007

Evil is the Goodness. Neither is right or wrong they just are. They are apart of our experience. We can only accept that it is the way it is, we cannot judge or resist it. They are in balance like everything else in Nature working together in a systematic process of evolution towards some equilibrium, towards some end. Read the rest of this entry »
