What is hidden under Moscow? This question has intrigued Vadim Mikhailov since he was a child in the early 1970s, when his father, who drove a train in the Moscow subway, first gave him a ride in the driver's cabin and showed him the network of Metro tunnels beneath the Russian capital. By the time he was 12, Mikhailov and his friends had begun making increasingly ambitious journeys beneath the city. Discoveries began with the first expeditions. Through manholes and building basements the boys wriggled into labyrinths under the Russian capital. First, they explored the bomb shelters under Leningradsky Prospekt, then they came across an Academy of Oceanology warehouse. "Imagine walking ...

Brutal lives of Stone Age Britons By Paul Rincon BBC News science reporter Women were sometimes the victims of violence (Image: Rick Schulting)A survey of British skulls from the early part of the New Stone Age, or Neolithic, shows societies then were more violent than was supposed. Early Neolithic Britons had a one in 20 chance of suffering a skull fracture at the hands of someone else and a one in 50 chance of dying from their injuries. Details were presented at a meeting of the Society for American Archaeology and reported in New Scientist magazine. Blunt instruments such as clubs were responsible for most of the trauma. This is not the first time human-induced injuries ...

Extract from the 1916 Congressional Record Senate Senator Owen: I wish to put in the Record the secret treaty of Verona of November 22, 1822, showing what this ancient conflict is between the rule of the few and the rule of the many. I wish to call the attention of the Senate to this treaty because it is the threat of this treaty which was the basis of the Monroe doctrine. It throws a powerful white light upon the conflict between monarchical government and government by the people. The Holy Alliance under the influence of Metternich, the Premier of Austria, in 1822, issued this remarkable secret document: SECRET TREATY OF VERONA AMERICAN DIPLOMATIC CODE, 1778-1884, vol. 2; Elliott, p. ...

Wilson's War Book Review by George C. Leef Book Review by George C. Leef Wilsons War: How Woodrow Wilsons Great Blunder Led to Hitler, Lenin, Stalin & World War II, by Jim Powell (Crown Forum, 2005); 352 pages; $27.50. Although most conventional liberal historians, blinded by their adulation for politicians who embrace progressive causes, continue to regard Woodrow Wilson highly, a few others have issued highly negative opinions about our 28th president. For example, historian Walter Karp, in his 1979 book, The Politics of War, writes, Wilson simply could not afford to think realistically about his association of nations. For the burdens he ...

Ben & Jerry's decision to give their latest flavour of ice-cream the same name as Churchill's notorious army has provoked howls of protest. David McKittrick describes the force's reign of terror against Irish nationalists To practically the whole world it may seem like a harmless, cheerfully cutesie name for a new American ice-cream flavour, just adopted by the popular manufacturer Ben & Jerry's. But some Irish-Americans have given the "Black and Tan" flavour a reception that is cold to the point of frigidity, complaining of its associations with one of the most notorious forces ever seen in Ireland. The Vermont-based company, unaware of origins of the name, based ...

Stasi film breaks with nostalgia By Ray Furlong BBC correspondent in Berlin The film shows how the Stasi invaded people's privacyA grown man is reduced to tears after 50 hours of relentless questioning by the East German secret police, the Stasi, as he finally breaks down and reveals the identity of his accomplice. This is one of the opening scenes of The Life Of The Others, a new film that shows the former German Democratic Republic (GDR) in a much grimmer light than the comedies about the communist East that filled cinemas in recent years. The film tells the story of a plot by the Stasi to discredit a playwright, ending in both the death of his lover and the end of his ...

Japanese WWII soldier found alive An ex-Japanese soldier who disappeared after World War II and was officially declared dead in 2000 has turned up alive in Ukraine, officials say. Ishinosuke Uwano was serving with the Japanese Imperial Army in Russia's Sakhalin Island when the war ended. He lost contact with his family in 1958. The 83-year-old has now reappeared, in Ukraine, where he is married and has a family, Japanese officials say. He is due to visit Japan for the first time in six decades on Wednesday. Just six years ago, his family officially registered him as having been killed in the war - and his details were removed from the official family registry. Because of this, Mr ...

TJ - Born April 13, 1743 at Shadwell, Virginia "Everything predicted by the enemies of banks, in the beginning, is now coming to pass. We are to be ruined now by the deluge of bank paper, as we were formerly by the old Continental paper. It is cruel that such revolutions in private fortunes should be at the mercy of avaricious adventurers, who, instead of employing their capital, if any they have, in manufactures, commerce, and other useful pursuits, make it an instrument to burthen all the interchanges of property with their swindling profits, profits which are the price of no useful industry of theirs.

Confederate History Month: South's just waiting to rise again By Charley Reese Commentary Published in The Orlando Sentinel, April 23, 1998 April is traditionally Confederate History Month, and one of the nice things about that is that it annoys the politically correct crowd. Anything that discomforts those KGB-wannabes is a good thing. Of course, all of us Southerners are used to our Northern friends saying, "Hey, Bubba, the war's over. You lost. Get over it." To which I always reply, "What makes you think the war is over, Bub?" Truth of the matter is that the Confederate government never surrendered. It's still out there somewhere, waiting for us to rally ...

Italy, a riddle wrapped in stoneEight-sided enigma Castel del Monte, in the country's boot heel, lures visitors into the mystery of its maker. By Susan Spano Times Staff Writer April 2, 2006 AT Castel del Monte, the stage is set for tragedy or black magic. Clouds scuttle across the sky, and a milk-white full moon rises. Footsteps echo on cold, wheat-colored stone, startling pigeons into flight. A medieval emperor hunted with falcons and cheetahs here, consulted astrologers and slept on Oriental silk. Local people sought refuge during the plague, and brigands hid out in the castle. Vandals over the years stripped it, leaving little more than an empty shell on a lonely hilltop at the edge of ...

I've lived through seven decades and can remember the late 1930s before WW II began. In fact, I began my formal education in kindergarten within days of when Hitler sent his Wehrmacht across the Polish border in an act of illegal aggression and began that near six year horror. I was too young to understand it then, and I can barely remember that fateful "first Pearl Harbor" on December 7, 1941. Franklin Roosevelt wanted in on that fight and did all he could to goad the Japanese to attack us. He knew with enough prodding they would, and when it came, we knew about when and where it would happen. We were ready to mobilize and join the battle, we did it, and nothing's been the same ...

Remember The October Surprise? Who Is Ernest Backes And Why Does George H. Bush Want Him Out Of The Picture? By Greg Szymanski 3-24-6 One man that the ruthless and diabolical George H. W. Bush wants dead or out of the picture probably more than anybody else goes by the surprising and unknown name of Ernest Backes. And it may come as even a bigger surprise that Backes isn't even a "fat cat" political foe or an undercover FBI agent with information about Bush's Iran Contra drug smuggling days. Although not a big shot, the information he learned as a backroom banking officer for the Clearstream Banking Network is big news and pins Bush right to wall for lying about what has come ...
Communists to be interned in Dachau Post Date: 2006-03-21 08:23:53 by Eoghan

The President of the Munich police has informed the press that the first concentration camp holding 5,000 political prisoners is to be organised within the next few days near the town of Dachau in Bavaria. Here, he said, Communists, "Marxists" and Reichsbanner leaders who endangered the security of the State would be kept in custody. It was impossible to find room for them in the State prisons, nor was it possible to release them. Experience had shown, he said, that the moment they were released, they started their agitation again. If the safety and order of the State were to be guaranteed, measures were inevitable, and they would be carried out without any petty consideration. ...
