Sep. 16, 2006 -- The U.S. military-intelligence complex is spinning a Russian security threat to the United States. In a return to the polemics of the Cold War, the FBI insists that 100 Russian intelligence officers are operating within the borders of the United States. And in an even more astounding claim, the FBI insists that more Russian spies are now active in the United States than at the height of the Cold War. The FBI maintains that Russia is trying to obtain secrets on space weapons, stealth weapons platforms, and "Star Wars II" missile defense systems. Tony Blair's MI-6 is also hyping a "Russian threat" by making a fanciful claim that 40 Russian agents are trying to pry secrets from the British defense establishment, while introducing ethnic Chechens into Britain to engage in various espionage activities. Russia also stands accused of fomenting "anti-Americanism" in oil-producing countries like Venezuela, Iran, Azerbaijan, Ecuador, Indonesia, and other nations. Neocons want to return US-Russian relations back to "the good old days." This rhetoric is right out of the neocon spin doctor playbook. Russia, under Vladimir Putin, has severely cracked down on the Russian-Ukrainian-Israeli Mafia, whose American neocon interlocutors now decry a Russian "menace" in response to Putin's actions. Putin is expected to increase the heat on the Russian-Israeli Mafia after the assassination of Andrei Kozlov, the deputy chairman of the Russian Central Bank. On September 13, Kozlov was shot, gangland style, after leaving a soccer match in Moscow. He died the following day. Kozlov had clamped down on money laundering banks in Russia, closing 44 tied to the mob. Kozlov's determination to rid the Russian banking system earned him the wrath of the Mafia, many of whose leaders have fled to Israel to avoid prosecution. The neocons are also smarting from the return to power as Prime Minister of Viktor Yanukovych in Ukraine. That has put to rest President Viktor Yushchenko's plan to join NATO, a move opposed by Yanukovych and his pro-Russia party. It also drives a nail into the coffin of the "Made in Washington" Orange Revolution, which saw Yushchenko coming to power with his American-born wife, Katerina Chumachenko (a Reagan administration official), in a themed "popular" revolt in late 2004. Sep. 16, 2006 -- WMR has received a number of emails from readers stating that access to this site is being restricted by a number of Internet Service Providers (ISPs). The ISPs involved in restricting access are local and global. One reader who has repeatedly encountered the message "Server not found" when trying to access WMR has found a work around by using the free anonymous proxy server https://www.the-cloak.com/login.html?verbose=yes&pin Sep. 16, 2006 -- WMR has uncovered more details about the neocon assault on the Voice of America. The attempt to discredit the network's Persian language services to Iran is aimed at replacing the independent news and views conveyed to the Iranian people with rhetoric and propaganda supplied from portions of the Iranian exile community and neocon think tanks in Washington and Israel. The Broadcast Board of Governors chairman Ken Tomlinson, an extreme right-winger and close friend of Karl Rove, who was forced to step down last year as Chairman of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting for unethical and possibly illegal behavior, is seeking to put the Bush regime's stamp on every Voice of America and other network for which the BBG is responsible. This includes setting the stage for the neocon plan to attack Iran. On September 13, the BBG failed to remove Tomlinson as chair in a split 3-3 vote, with the three Republicans voting to keep Tomlinson while the three Democrats voted to fire him. Tomlinson was not able to vote due to his conflict of interest. A State Department Inspector General report found that Tomlinson was using his BBG office to conduct private business for his Virginia-based thoroughbred race horse operation. Sources familiar with Tomlinson's horse racing activities said Tomlinson named two of his horses after "heroes" of the Afghan mujaheddin, one being named "Masood." Ken Tomlinson: Propagandizing VOA for the neocon. Voting to fire Tomlinson were BBG members Jeffrey Hirschberg, Joaquin Blaya, and Edward Kaufman. Tomlinson was saved by the far right Republican members: Blanquita Walsh Cullum, the President of the National Association of Radio Talk Show Hosts (NARTSH), Steve Simmons, former Bush White House domestic policy adviser and Chairman of Patriot Media and Communications, a new firm that is buying up cable companies across the nation; and State Department propaganda chief Karen Hughes, who cast the proxy vote for the third Republican member, Condoleezza Rice. NARTSH is a mostly right-wing grouping that has honored such right-wing airwave blatherers as G. Gordon Liddy and Sean Hannity and includes among its members Neal Boortz, Mike Gallagher, Laura Ingraham, Don Imus, Les Kinsolving, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Oliver North, Michael Reagan, Laura Schlessinger, Jay Severin, Janet Parshall, and Michael Savage. [Air America's Al Franken is also a member]. It is also apparent that the neocons, using their bases in the Bush administration and the World Bank, are planning a major assault against some of the world's poorest nations, countries that gathered in Havana this past week to elect Cuba as the leader of the Non-Aligned Movement, champion Venezuela's bid for a UN Security Council seat, and condemn U.S. and Israeli wars of aggression. The World Bank, under the neocon management of Paul Wolfowitz, has released a report stating that 26 countries are "fragile" (code for "failing") states. The World Bank report coincides with Bush regime statements, including one from Condoleezza Rice, that "failed states" are fertile ground for terrorism. Both the World Bank and the Bush regime are targeting "failing" states by manipulating economic assistance and bringing them under the U.S. military umbrella. It is not coincidental that the 25 of the 26 nations listed by the World Bank are members of the Non-Aligned Movement and were represented at the Havana summit. They are also nations that are being lobbied by Venezuela for their support for a UN Security Council seat for Venezuela. The nations identified by the World Bank are Afghanistan, Angola, Burundi, Cambodia, Central African Republic, Comoros, Congo (Democratic Republic of the), Congo (Republic of), Cote d'Ivoire, Eritrea, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Haiti, Laos, Liberia, Myanmar, Solomon Islands, Somalia, Sudan, Timor Leste, Togo, Vanuatu, West Bank and Gaza (Palestine), and Zimbabwe. Kosovo was also included as a "nation" by the World Bank, however, it is not a member of the Non-Aligned Movement. It is noteworthy that Iraq, a center for terrorism since the U.S. occupation, was noticeably absent from the World Bank report as a "failing" or "failed" state. The ignoble Frank Gaffney of the Center for Security Policy launched the neocon strategy against the Non-Aligned Movement when, in a Sept. 15 interview with MS-NBC's Nora O'Donnell, he joked about an e-coli outbreak felling the gathered non-aligned leaders gathered in Havana: "Nora O'Donnell: Frank, what do you think should happen down there in Havana? Gaffney's joke came at a time when packaged spinach was being disposed of across the United States due to e-coli contamination. E-coli causes severe abdominal cramping, bloody diarrhea, and is sometimes fatal. A 77-year old Wisconsin woman died from the e-coli contamination and hundreds of others have been sickened, 19 of whom have suffered kidney failure. Perhaps this is the wet dream that Gaffney was imagining for the heads of state in Havana. [In light of joking about endangering the lives of heads of government and diplomats from 118 countries, as well as the UN Secretary General, with a deadly bacteria, the possibility of neocons involvement in the 2001 biological warfare anthrax attacks on Congress and the media -- to create a favorable environment for the quick passage of the Patriot Act -- should be taken more seriously. The fact that Gaffney made his remarks at a time when Cuban President Fidel Castro is hospitalized with an unknown stomach ailment contracted after a visit to Argentina makes his remarks all the more reprehensible]. *** The other event that is causing the neocons to attack the Non-Aligned Movement is the specter of Venezuela winning a seat on the Security Council. The neocons in the Bush regime are working overtime to pressure poor and small nations not to vote for Venezuela in a General Assembly vote in October. The neocons are backing Guatemala and are providing high-level public relations and lobbying assistance to its Foreign Minister Gert Rosenthal and Vice President Eduardo Stein. Their public relations spin machine is putting out news releases stating that Guatemala has 90 of 128 votes to be elected to the Security Council in an effort to create a bandwagon effect for Guatemala. But Venezuela is clearly racking up votes in its bid to challenge the neocons in the Security Council. Venezuela has gained the backing of the Arab League, Caribbean Community and Common Market (CARICOM), and the Common Market of the South (MERCOSUR). It also has the support of China and Russia. If France decides to back Venezuela, many French-speaking members of the Francophone Community, including many African countries, will fall in line behind Paris. With Mexico, the Central American countries, and Colombia backing Guatemala, along with expected support from some of the Eastern European nations that are heavily-influenced by neocon policies, the real battle for votes will be in the South Pacific, Africa, and the central Asian "stans." With Papua New Guinea coming out in support of Venezuela and Russia's lobbying of former Soviet republics in central Asia, it appears that Venezuela will have the edge needed to win its coveted seat on the Security Council. The wild card is whether Wolfowitz's World Bank will threaten to cut off economic aid to poor countries if they vote for Venezuela. In a battle between Venezuela's oil wealth and the World Bank's vise grip on aid, Guatemala could eke out an dishonorable diplomatic victory, but at a severe cost to the world's poorest nations.

Madsen is the author of Genocide and Covert Operations in Africa 1993-1999, co-author of America's Nightmare: The Presidency of George Bush II, and Jaded Tasks, Brass Plates, Black Ops and Big Oil. Madsen is also the author of The Handbook of Personal Data Protection (London: Macmillan, 1991), an acclaimed reference book on international data protection law. — Joe Lauria, freelance journalist for the Boston Globe, Sunday Times of London and Independent Newspapers of South Africa.

Frank Gaffney: Well, an e-coli outbreak on these kooks, nuts, and haters would be a good start."
Author and investigative reporter Wayne Madsen will be in the Pacific Northwest to speak and promote his new book, Jaded Tasks, Brass Plates, Black Ops and Big Oil. He will speaking in Seattle, Portland and Eugene.
Walterville, Oregon, September 15, 2006 -- Wayne Madsen will be speaking and signing books in Seattle on October 28, Eugene. OR on the 29th and in Portland on November 1.
Madsen is a former U.S. Naval officer who was assigned to the National Security Agency during the Reagan administration. He also has some twenty years experience in computer security and data privacy. He has also worked for the Naval Data Automation Command, Department of State, RCA Corporation, and Computer Sciences Corporation.
Wayne will be speaking at Trinity Methodist Church, 6512 23rd Avenue Northwest , Seattle at 7 pm, Saturday October 28, and at Tsunami Books, at 2585 Willamette Street in Eugene at 4 pm on Sunday, October 29. The speaking engagement in Portland will be announced next week.
Here is what Greg Palast and Joe Lauria had to say about Wayne's new book Jaded Tasks:
“Wayne Madsen scares the hell out of the Military-Industrial-Mendacity Complex — they have no weapon against the truths he hurls at them. A journalistic David against the Goliath of Washington officialdom, Madsen always hits the bull’s-eye by bringing the little-known or well-hidden fact to the big issues — terror, war and bulging budgets — that are normally clouded by official flimflam, media flummery and public relations fluff. Madsen, who comes from inside the US intelligence apparatus, writes with a unique combination of insider’s knowledge with outsider’s skepticism … and a well-earned sense of outrage.”
— Greg Palast, author Armed Madhouse: Dispatches from the Front Lines of the Class War. "
Wayne Madsen is as well connected to the U.S. intelligence community as any Washington journalist, and few are better at connecting the dots and raising disturbing questions. He has done so brilliantly in Jaded Tasks. This book takes the troubling events of the Bush era, presented disjointedly by the corporate news media, and melds them into a coherent narrative that illuminates the global strategy of the neocon revolution. Confused after watching or reading the news? Put down the paper, shut off the TV and read this book.”

That's special, just like al-Manar.
"If there’s another 9/11 or a major war in the Middle-East involving a U.S. attack on Iran, I have no doubt that there will be, the day after or within days an equivalent of a Reichstag fire decree that will involve massive detentions in this country." - Daniel Ellsberg Author, Pentagon Papers Wasn't it a MI-6 agent caught talking to a rock in Red Square? Interesting the Neo-sheviks mention the British defense est. They moved their military contracting wing from the Pentagon to London under a re-vamped Henry Jackson Society. http://www.csmonitor.com/2006/0125/p07s02-woeu.html "The FSB is trying to convince the public that foreign-funded NGOs are agents of influence of other countries, that they can't be trusted," says Andrei Kolesnikov, deputy editor of the daily Izvestia newspaper. Sergei Ignatchenko, the FSB spokesman, showed documents on TV suggesting that one of the British diplomats caught on tape, political secretary Marc Doe, had authorized payments for 12 Russian NGOs under the British government's Global Opportunities Fund. Recipients include Russia's oldest human rights organization, the Eurasia Foundation, and the Committee Against Torture. "We found out that [the British] were financing a number of NGOs," Mr. Ignatchenko told Russian TV. "It needs to be established how those funds were used." An extension of Carlyle Group's failure to pirate Russian natural resources under the "Russian" mob influence.
LOL! I hadn't heard about that! Interesting the Neo-sheviks mention the British defense est. They moved their military contracting wing from the Pentagon to London under a re-vamped Henry Jackson Society. Neo-sheviks I will be borrowing that. An extension of Carlyle Group's failure to pirate Russian natural resources under the "Russian" mob influence. Good luck to Putin.

Seems like it. There is a permanent work around for this problem if you have windows xp. There is a file called HOSTS in your C:WINDOWSsystem32driversetc folder. Editting that file, you can get around your ISP's DNS server and get to blocked sites. At the time of that manar tv thing, I edited mine to look like this: 127.0.0.1 localhost 64.106.143.226 manartv.com Do I hear a fat lady singing?
dang, it got rid of the /s in the path name. C:WINDOWS/system32/drivers/etc folder
Do I hear a fat lady singing?
I've tried it..my firewall keeps coming back with 3rd party monitoring warnings...I'm still on dial-up, but I'm safe...my file's reached maximum density. ;)
That's the /etc/hosts file on Linux.

This "go around" my chips are placed on Russia. They have "wise" leadershipe, scant debt and huge resources to sell to the rest of the world...
That means a 3rd party is monitoring your visit to that site? Which firewall do you use? I have the free version of Zone Alarm... I wonder if it has that feature? hmmmm
Do I hear a fat lady singing?
I have Lavasoft...that must be renewed yearly..and seems I get fewer to notices to keylogger or worms as time goes on. I think I'm being had...
