A man that takes it upon himself to replace one god with another assumes a heavy burden. It is a greater task than most mortals are capable of bearing.
The likes of individuals like La Vey and Crowley are not decent people. These men certainly didn't walk in the light. Those that tread in their footsteps are walking a dark, dark path.
These were scary men indeed.
I would like to direct this to the distinguished members of the panel: You lousy cork-soakers. You have violated my farging rights.

How about having no god except for themselves?
LaVey I never met but have heard some non-flattering things about. Crowley I mostly don't understand. But my sigline quote is self-explanatory and I agree with it.
There's nothing "scary" about them. Unless one considers living outside the matrix and thinking for yourself to be scary. There is nothing scary about the vid I posted. But those that watch it, once they find out that they aren't advocating human sacrifice (like the kike god does), and murder (like the kike god does), and blind obedience (like the kike god demands), will not watch the rest of it. most people, anyway. It just doesn't fit in with their views on "evil".

It would be unwise to condemn as irrational the practice of those savages who tear the heart and liver from an adversary, and devour them while yet warm. In any case it was the theory of {94} the ancient Magicians, that any living being is a storehouse of energy varying in quantity according to the size and health of the animal, and in quality according to its mental and moral character. At the death of the animal this energy is liberated suddenly.
The animal should therefore be killed within the Circle, or the Triangle, as the case may be, so that its energy cannot escape. An animal should be selected whose nature accords with that of the ceremony thus, by sacrificing a female lamb one would not obtain any appreciate quantity of the fierce energy useful to a Magician who was invoking Mars. In such a case a ram would be more suitable. And this ram should be virgin the whole potential of its original total energy should not have been diminished in any way. For the highest spiritual working one must accordingly choose that victim which contains the greatest and purest force. A male child of perfect innocence and high intelligence is the most satisfactory and suitable victim. {95} For evocations it would be more convenient to place the blood of the victim in the Triangle the idea being that the spirit might obtain from the blood this subtle but physical substance which was the quintessence of its life in such a manner as to enable it to take on a visible and tangible shape.

These were scary men indeed.
Even scarier are the chowderheads and perverts that follow them willingly. Crowley was attached to British Intelligence so I have come to wonder if his entire schtick was not an intelligence operation directed by MI-6's Tavistock Institute.
La Vey I don't know a lot about and generally find such philosophies so repellent that I only delve into them when I must to understand their linkages to other forces in our society.

Crowley obviously had allowed himself to be driven mad, and/or possessed by pure evil. Yet many follow his creed as if he were infallible and heed his words as if they were that of some wise sage.

Do you understand what "will" means, when he says "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law"? Does that mean that you can do whatever you want to do? No, it doesn't mean that.
Do you know, without looking it up, what evocation and invocation are?
If you want to know what he is writing about, then try going to the source. I told you that Crowley was hard to understand. You insist on reading at the surface level when these things are never written to be understood at the surface level.
No. Crowley never performed or advocated human sacrifice. His much-quoted allusion to frequent "child-sacrifice" (Magick In Theory & Practice, Chapter XII) was a metaphor for a specific practice of sexual magick that did not involve harm to any individual, but diverted the energies of sexuality from physical reproduction to other purposes. The 'child' or 'Bud-Will' that is sacrificed in such a practice is a particular manifestation of the magician's Will, and not a physical, human child. Human sacrifice in any form would be incompatible with the principles of Thelema, as a violation of the right of every individual to live as he or she wills.

Exactly. Our psychotic so-called "elites" have a very warped perspective and their trained seal Psychiatrists are busy trying to degrade the culture down to their level. Such things as most people find good - such as common decency, morality, ethical dealings, etc., ... are an anathema to them. They want to "normalize" their own sick behavior by destroying the culture of decency which acts as a constant rebuke to their sick behavior.
"What basic psychological distortion can be found in every civilization of which we know anything? The only psychological force capable of producing these perversions is morality--the concept of right and wrong. The re-interpretation and eventual eradication of the concept of right and wrong are the belated objectives of nearly all psychotherapy." ~ Dr. G. Brock Chisholm, Psychiatrist, Co-Founder World Federation of Mental Health

You don't know that for a fact. In view of his writings, I'd say the chance is quite high that he did. At minimum, as you allude to "sex magick", he used them as sexual objects in his rituals.
Do you know, without looking it up, what evocation and invocation are?
They both mean the same thing, that is, they both mean the summoning of spirits, demons, or other entities.
"The real deal is this: the royalty controlling the court, the ones with the power, the ones with the ability to make a difference, with the ability to change our course, the ones who will live in infamy if we pass the tipping points, are the captains of industry, CEOs in fossil fuel companies such as EXXON/Mobil, automobile manufacturers, utilities, all of the leaders who have placed short-term profit above the fate of the planet and the well-being of our children." - James Hansen
His quote is quite clear, especially when combined with the preceeding words on how he viewed the tearing out of hearts and livers...
For evocations it would be more convenient to place the blood of the victim in the Triangle the idea being that the spirit might obtain from the blood this subtle but physical substance which was the quintessence of its life in such a manner as to enable it to take on a visible and tangible shape.
In this case, the word "evocation" relates to "bringing forth" a physical manifestation of the desired entity.

Look up the basics of magic theory, sex magic and invocation/evocation. Then get back to me when you can talk about the basics. Because I only know some basics too.

A PEDESTRIAN crossing Tower Bridge spotted it: something that resembled a small torso dressed in orange shorts, floating near the north bank of the Thames, as he walked to work on the morning of September 21, 2001. It was indeed a human torso measuring only about 18 inches by eight inches and identified by the coroner as that of a young boy, aged between five and eight years with dark skin colour. The child's body had been skillfully butchered, the legs, arms and head removed and may have been hung upside down and drained entirely of blood before it was dressed in a pair of orange shorts and placed in the river. There was nothing to identify the child and no reports of missing children in the UK or Europe matched his physical description.

Quickly, the theory that Adam was the victim of what is termed a ritualistic murder began to feature prominently in the Met's thinking. The detective unit's appeal for assistance from the European police liaison agency, Europol, in the Hague quickly produced general supporting evidence for this theory. Three weeks before the body in the Thames was discovered, the naked torso of a white girl, aged between five and seven, was found floating near the Dutch lake resort of Nulde. The girl had been butchered in exactly the same way. The Dutch police were also looking at the possibility of a ritualistic killing and had contacted detectives in Hamburg, Germany, where a similar case had been reported.

BUENOS AIRES (CWNews.com) - The brutal murder of a 50-year-old father at the hand of his two young daughters as part of a satanic rite has shocked Argentine society and raised concern about the proliferation of satanic and other cults in Buenos Aires.
The mutilated body of Juan Carlos Vazquez was found on Monday surrounded by his two daughters, Silvina, 21 and Gabriela 29, who stabbed their father 100 times and ate part of his face.
Yesterday, the police revealed the first details of the strange crime, announcing that the three of them belonged to a cult known as the "Alchemy Center for Transmutation." According to the police, apparently the father and daughters engaged in a ritual that ended with the murder of Juan Carlos Vazquez.
Juan Carlos' body was found not only with 100 knife wounds, but also marked with cuts forming a strange figure.
The killing took place in the living room, after the furniture was moved to one side. In the place were found cups with strange liquids and a book of "alchemy rites." When the police entered the home, the two daughters were screaming in a state of shock, one invoking Satan, the other one saying that Satan had finally left her father's body.
"We can't know yet what happened exactly, because both women are temporarily under tranquilizers at a psychiatric institution," a police source revealed to the Clarin newspaper.
According to Jose Maria Baamonde, a psychologist from Fundacion Spes, a Catholic institution dedicated to studying the growing number of sects and cults, the cult to which the Vazquez' belonged "is the type of organization that is becoming tremendously popular by combining some elements of Gnosticism and strange formulas and rites which they claim have been inherited from the ancient Alchemists."
Baamonde explained that, despite the sect's self-portrayal as an institution devoted to self-knowledge and self-discipline, "some of their rites explicitly invoke the presence and power of the Devil."

On February 7th of 1987, the Washington Post ran an interesting story that did not at the time seem to have any particular national significance. The article concerned a case of possible kidnapping and child abuse, and read (in part) as follows:
"Authorities investigating the alleged abuse of six children found with two men in a Tallahassee, Fla., park discovered material yesterday in the Washington area that they say points to a 1960's style commune called the Finders, described in a court document as a 'cult' that allegedly conducted 'brainwashing' and used children 'in rituals.' D. C. police, who searched a Northeast Washington warehouse linked to the group removed large plastic bags filled with color slides, photographs and photographic contact sheets. Some photos visible through a bag carried from the warehouse at 1307 Fourth St. NE were wallet-sized pictures of children, similar to school photos, and some were of naked children. D.C. police sources said some of the items seized yesterday showed pictures of children engaged in what appeared to be 'cult rituals.' Officials of the U.S. Customs Service, called in to aid in the investigation, said that the material seized yesterday includes photos showing children involved in bloodletting ceremonies of animals and one photograph of a child in chains. Customs officials said they were looking into whether a child pornography operation was being conducted ... Their links to the D.C. area have led authorities into a far-reaching investigation that includes the Finders - a group of about 40 people that court documents allege is led by a man named Marion Pettie - and their various homes, including the duplex apartment building in Glover Park, the Northeast Washington warehouse and a 90 acre farm in rural Madison County, Va. ... The children, identified in a court document only by the first names of Honeybee, John Franklin, Bee Bee, Max and Mary, were described as 'dirty unkempt, hungry, disturbed and agitated.' They had been living in the rear of the van for some time, the document said. Yesterday, police spokesman Hunt said one of the children, a 6 yr. old girl 'showed signs of sexual abuse' ... Five of the children were uncommunicative, according to police, and none seemed to recognize objects such as typewriters and staplers. However, the oldest was able to give investigators some information. She said that the two men 'were their teachers,' according to Hunt ... Before their arrests in the park, [the two adult caretakers] had told police that they were teachers from Washington 'transporting these children to Mexico and a school for brilliant children,' according to Hunt. When police asked the men where the children's mothers were they said they were being weaned from their mothers." (1)
This was just one of many such stories that emerged across the country in the late 1980's, a phenomenon that would be quickly be denounced as a 'witch hunt' and as a 'Satanic panic.' It would be nearly seven years before the press would revisit this particular manifestation of what would come to be regarded as a modern-day case of mass hysteria. It was the U.S. News and World Report that would ultimately provide the follow-up to the Finders story. But this was certainly not in the interest of shining any light on the earlier allegations. Most likely, the strange saga of the Finders would have disappeared forever if not for the rumors surrounding the case that just wouldn't seem to go away.
These rumors were addressed in the News report as follows: "One of the unresolved questions involves allegations that the Finders are somehow linked to the Central Intelligence Agency. Custom Service documents reveal that in 1987, when Customs agents sought to examine the evidence gathered by Washington, D.C. police, they were told that the Finders investigation 'had become an internal matter.' The police report on the case had been classified secret. Even now, Tallahassee police complain about the handling of the Finders investigation by D.C. police. 'They dropped this case,' one Tallahassee investigator says, 'like a hot rock.' D.C. police will not comment on the matter. As for the CIA, ranking officials describe allegations about links between the intelligence agency and the Finders as 'hogwash,' perhaps the result of a simple mix up with D.C. police. The only connection, according to the CIA: A firm that provided computer training to CIA officers also employed several members of the Finders." (2)
It should probably be noted here that the firm that supplied the training didn't just employ several members of the Finders but appears to have in fact been a wholly owned subsidiary of the Finders organization. It should also be noted that the CIA does not, as a general rule-of-thumb, assign the training of its officers to outside contractors. If a 'private' firm is utilized in such a capacity, it is in all such cases a front group of the CIA itself.
In the last paragraph of the U.S. News report, yet more intriguing connections to Langley are revealed. Speaking of group leader Marion Pettie, it is noted that "the CIA's interest in the Finders may stem from the fact that his late wife once worked for the agency and that his son worked for a CIA proprietary firm, Air America." Aside from acknowledging these by then widely known (in Washington, at least) CIA connections, the U.S. News reporters did their very best to bury this story once and for all, denigrating the sordid allegations leveled against the group seven years earlier. The article reads as follows:
"The case is almost seven years old now, but matters surrounding a mysterious group known as the Finders keep growing curiouser and curiouser. In early February 1987, an anonymous tipster in Tallahassee, Fla, made a phone call to police. Two 'well dressed men' seemed to be 'supervising' six disheveled and hungry children in a local park, the caller said. The cops went after the case like bloodhounds, at least at first. The two men were identified as members of the Finders. They were charged with child abuse in Florida. In Washington, D.C. police and U.S. Customs Service agents raided a duplex apartment building and a warehouse connected to the group. Among the evidence seized - detailed instructions on obtaining children for unknown purposes and several photographs of nude children. According to a Customs Service memorandum obtained by U.S. News, one photo appeared 'to accent the child's genitals.' The more the police learned about the Finders, the more bizarre they seemed: There were suggestions of child abuse, Satanism, dealing in pornography and ritualistic animal slaughter. None of the allegations was ever proved, however. The child abuse charges against the two men in Tallahassee were dropped; all six of the children were eventually returned to their mothers, though in the case of two, conditions were attached by a court. In Washington, D.C. police began backing away from the Finders investigation. The groups practices, the police said, were eccentric - not illegal." (2)
The article closed by noting that "some of the rumors can last an awfully long time." Indeed they can, though the rumors would have to circulate outside of the media, which has never again mentioned the case. This does not mean though that there is no additional information available on the subject. As the News noted in their report, there is a certain Customs Service memorandum that was written at the time of the original investigation.
As this document was in the hands of the News reporters at the time the story was written, as is readily acknowledged, it should logically follow that any pertinent information contained therein would have been faithfully reported. And as we know, the News concluded that "none of the allegations was ever proved." Still, it might be interesting to review the document to see what kind of "eccentric - not illegal" practices it was that the group was involved in. As luck would have it, I also happen to have a copy of the memo, which is actually a series of memos written by Ramon J. Martinez, Special Agent, United States Customs Service. In Martinez's own words, this is what he observed during his participation in the investigation:
"On Thursday, February 5, 1987, this office was contacted via telephone by Sergeant JoAnn VanMETER of the Tallahassee Police Department, Juvenile Division. Sgt. VanMETER requested assistance in identifying two adult males and six minor children ages 7 years to 2 years.
"The adult males were tentatively identified by TPD as Michael HOULIHAN and Douglas AMMERMAN, both of Washington, D.C. who were arrested the previous day on charges of child abuse.
"The police had received an anonymous telephone call relative two well-dressed white men wearing suits and ties in Myers Park, (Tallahassee), apparently watching six dirty and unkempt children in the playground area. HOULIHAN and AMMERMAN were near a 1980 Blue Dodge van bearing Virginia license number XHW-557, the inside of which was later described as foul-smelling filled with maps, books, letters, with a mattress situated to the rear of the van which appeared as if it were used as a bed, and the overall appearance of the van gave the impression that all eight persons were living in it.
"The children were covered with insect bites, were very dirty, most of the children were not wearing underwear and all of the children had not been bathed in many days.
"The men were arrested and charged with multiple counts of child abuse and lodged in the Leon County Jail. Once in custody the men were somewhat evasive in their answers to the police regarding the children and stated only that they both were the children's teachers and that all were enroute to Mexico to establish a school for brilliant children ...
"U.S. Customs was contacted because the police officers involved suspected the adults of being involved in child pornography and knew the Customs Service to have a network of child pornography investigators, and of the existence of the Child Pornography and Protection Unit. SS/A Krietlow stated the two adults were well dressed white males. They had custody of six white children (boys and girls), ages three to six years. The children were observed to be poorly dressed, bruised, dirty, and behaving like wild animals in a public park in Tallahassee ...
"SS/A Kreitlow was further advised the children were unaware of the function and purpose of telephones, televisions and toilets, and that the children had stated they were not allowed to live indoors and were only given food as a reward ...
"Upon contacting Detective Bradley, I learned that he had initiated an investigation on the two addresses provided by the Tallahassee Police Dept. during December of 1986. An informant had given him information regarding a cult, known as the "Finders" operating various businesses out of a warehouse located at 1307 4th St., N.E., and were supposed to be housing children at 3918/3920 W St., N.W. The information was specific in describing 'blood rituals' and sexual orgies involving children, and an as yet unsolved murder in which the Finders may be involved. With the information provided by the informant, Detective Bradley was able to match some of the children in Tallahassee with names of children known alleged to be in the custody of the Finders. Furthermore, Bradley was able to match the tentative ID of the adults with known members of the Finders. I stood by while Bradley consulted with AUSA Harry Benner and obtained search warrants for the two premises. I advised acting RAC SS/A Tim Halloran of my intention to accompany MPD on the execution of the warrants, received his permission, and was joined by SS/A Harrold. SS/A Harrold accompanied the team which went to 1307 4th St., and I went to 3918/20 W St.
"During the execution of the warrant at 3918/20 W St., I was able to observe and access the entire building ... There were several subjects on the premises. Only one was deemed to be connected with the Finders. [He] was located in a room equipped with several computers, printers, and numerous documents. Cursory examination of the documents revealed detailed instructions for obtaining children for unspecified purposes. The instructions included the impregnation of female members of the community known as the Finders, purchasing children, trading, and kidnapping. There were telex messages using MCI account numbers between a computer terminal believed to be located in the same room, and others located across the country and in foreign locations. One such telex specifically ordered the purchase of two children in Hong Kong to be be arranged through a contact in the Chinese Embassy there. Another telex expressed interest in 'bank secrecy' situations. Other documents identified interests in high-tech transfers to the United Kingdom, numerous properties under the control of the Finders, a keen interest in terrorism, explosives, and the evasion of law enforcement. Also found in the 'computer room' was a detailed summary of the events surrounding the arrest and taking into custody of the two adults and six children in Tallahassee the previous night. There were also a set of instructions which appeared to be broadcast via a computer network which advised the participants to move 'the children' and keep them moving through different jurisdictions, and instructions on how to avoid police attention ...
"On Friday, 2/6/87, I met Detective Bradley at the warehouse on 4th Street, N.E. I duly advised my acting group supervisor, SS/A Don Bludworth. I was again granted unlimited access to the premises. I was able to observe numerous documents which described explicit sexual conduct between the members of the community known as Finders. I also saw a large collection of photographs of unidentified persons. Some of the photographs were nudes, believed to be of members of the Finders. There were numerous photos of children, some nude, at least one of which was a photo of a child 'on display' and appearing to accent the child's genitals. I was only able to examine a very small amount of the photos at this time. However, one of the officers presented me with a photo album for my review. The album contained a series of photos of adults and children dressed in white sheets participating in a 'blood ritual.' The ritual centered around the execution of at least two goats. The photos portrayed the execution, disembowelment, skinning and dismemberment of the goats at the hands of the children. This included the removal of the testes of a male goat, the discovery of a female goat's "womb" and the "baby goats" inside the womb, and the presentation of a goat's head to one of the children.
"Further inspection of the premises disclosed numerous files relating to activities of the organization in different parts of the world. Locations I observed are as follows: London, Germany, the Bahamas, Japan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Africa, Costa Rica, and 'Europe.' There was also a file identified as 'Palestinian.' Other files were identified by member name or 'project' name. The projects appearing to be operated for commercial purposes under front names for the Finders. There was one file entitled 'Pentagon Break-In,' and others referring to members operating in foreign countries. Not observed by me but related by an MPD officer were intelligence files on private families not related to the Finders. The process undertaken appears to be have been a systematic response to local newspaper advertisements for babysitters, tutors, etc. A member of the Finders would respond and gather as much information as possible about the habits, identity, occupation, etc., of the family. The use to which this information was to be put is still unknown. There was also a large amount of data collected on various child care organizations.
"The warehouse contained a large library, two kitchens, a sauna, hot-tub, and a 'video room.' The video room seemed to be set up as an indoctrination center. It also appeared that that the organization had the capability to produce its own videos. There were what appeared to be training areas for children and what appeared to be an altar set up in a residential area of the warehouse. Many jars of urine and feces were located in this area." (3)
I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that most people, upon reading this, will conclude that the practices of the Finders were not in fact merely "eccentric." The last time I checked into it, running an international terrorist organization specializing in the trafficking of children was definitely illegal. Unless, that is, the organization doing the trafficking is run by the Central Intelligence Agency.
Group leader Marion Pettie shed additional light on his non-connections to the agency in an interview with Steamshovel Press in 1998. Recounting the history of his group, Pettie notes that: "Going back to World War II, I kept open house mainly to intelligence people in Washington. OSS people passing through, things like that." (4)
He wasn't, mind you, an intelligence asset himself. In fact, according to Pettie, he has spent his entire life trying - as a private citizen - to spy on the spies. As for his wife, he claims he sent her "in as a spy, to spy on the CIA for me. She was very happy about it, happy to tell me everything she found out. She was in a key place, you know with the records, and she could find out things for me." (4)
Pettie also acknowledges that his "son worked for Air America, which was a proprietary of the CIA. There are some connections, but not to me personally." (4) Of course not. In fact, Pettie is something of a CIA watch-dog, proclaiming that he has "been studying them since before they were born."
"I was studying them back in the 30's. It was ONI back then [Office of Naval Intelligence], and then the Coordinator of Information comes on, and after that it turns into the OSS and OSS turns into the CIAU and the CIAU turns into the CIA. So I've been studying that all of my life. But I wasn't personally working for them." (4)
Of course he wasn't. I have no idea where anyone would get a crazy notion like that. Interestingly enough, though, this group which claimed no direct connection to the intelligence community quite obviously had very powerful people within that community protecting it. As the final Customs Service memo notes:
"On Thursday, February 5, 1987, Senior Special Agent Harrold and I assisted the Washington D.C. Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) with two search warrants involving the possible sexual exploitation of children. During the course of the search warrants, numerous documents were discovered which appeared to be concerned with international trafficking in children, high tech transfer to the United Kingdom, and international transfer of currency.
"On March 31, 1987, I contacted Detective Jim Bradley of the Washington, DC Metropolitan Police Department (MPD). I was to meet with Detective Bradley to review the documents seized pursuant to two search warrants executed in January, 1987. The meeting was to take place on April 2 or 3, 1987.
"On April 2, 1987, I arrived at MPD at approximately 9:00 a.m. Detective Bradley was not available. I spoke to a third party who was willing to discuss the case with me on a strictly 'off the record' basis.
"I was advised that all the passport data had been turned over to the State Department for their investigation. The State Department in turn, advised the MPD that all travel and use of the passports by the holders of the passports was within the law and no action would be taken. This included travel to Moscow, North Korea, and North Vietnam from the late 1950s to mid 1970s.
"The individual further advised me of circumstances which indicated that the investigation into the activity of the Finders had become a CIA internal matter. The MPD report has been classified SECRET and was not available for review. I was advised that the FBI had withdrawn from the investigation several weeks prior and that the FBI Foreign Counter Intelligence Division had directed MPD not to advise the FBI Washington Field Office of anything that had transpired.
"No further information will be available. No further action will be taken."
And with these rather cryptic words, the case of the Finders was permanently closed. So there you have it. The only question now remaining, I suppose, is simply this: how long can we - the American people - allow a government to stand that is so depraved, so fundamentally corrupt and criminal, so completely lacking in any semblance of morals or basic human decency that it would traffic in the minds and bodies of our children? HOW FUCKING LONG?

More reports surfaced that children were being stolen in South and Central America, flown across the border in light aircraft, and sold to child sex rings, or sold so their organs could be used in transplants. There was no shortage of rumors about who was involved. One named was Air Force Colonel Phil Willer, a World War II veteran turned contraband-runner. His twin-engined Beechcraft had finally been shot down by a Mexican antiaircraft unit, crashing in flames. Willer died strapped into the cockpit. Ironically, there was no one else on board. But the story persisted that other fliers had inherited his role and substantial income. One was known as the Desert Jackal, a sixty-year-old American who learned his flying against the Japanese in the Pacific in World War II. Another had flown a helicopter gunship in Vietnam. A pilot could make two thousand dollars on a ninety-minute round trip from some Mexican mountaintop or jungle clearing, skimming over the border to land at a remote landing strip in New Mexico or Texas. Some made two or three flights a day. The more experienced used Beech 18s because of the aircraft's capacity and maneuverability. The majority of the fliers were mercenaries who had flown for the CIA.
"The real deal is this: the royalty controlling the court, the ones with the power, the ones with the ability to make a difference, with the ability to change our course, the ones who will live in infamy if we pass the tipping points, are the captains of industry, CEOs in fossil fuel companies such as EXXON/Mobil, automobile manufacturers, utilities, all of the leaders who have placed short-term profit above the fate of the planet and the well-being of our children." - James Hansen
"Paedophiles can boldly and courageously affirm what they choose ... I am also a theologian and as a theologian, I believe it is God's will that there be closeness and intimacy, unity of flesh, between people ... paedophiles can make the assertion that the pursuit of intimacy and love is what they choose. With boldness, they can say, 'I believe this is in fact part of God's will.'"
Ralph Underwager, 'expert' witness for the defense in scores of child abuse cases and former vocal member of the False Memory Syndrome Foundation, in an interview in Paidika (a pro-pedophilia publication), conducted in June 1991
To the vast majority of Americans, the name Marc Dutroux doesn't mean much. Drop that name in Belgium though and you're likely to elicit some very visceral reactions. Dutroux - convicted along with his wife in 1989 for the rape and violent abuse of five young girls, the youngest of whom was just eleven - now stands accused of being a key player in an international child prostitution and pornography ring whose practices included kidnapping, rape, sadistic torture, and murder.
Dutroux was sentenced in 1989 to thirteen years for his crimes, but was freed after having served just three. This was in spite of the fact that, as prison governor Yvan Stuaert would later tell a parliamentary commission: A medical report described him as a perverse psychopath, an explosive mix. He was an evident danger to society.
The man who turned Dutroux loose on society, Justice Minister Melchior Wathelet, soon after received a prestigious appointment to serve as a judge at the European Court of Justice at the Hague. Shortly after Dutrouxs release, young girls began to disappear in the vicinity of some of his homes. Though technically unemployed and drawing welfare from the state, he nevertheless owned at least six houses and lived quite lavishly.
His rather lucrative income appears to have been derived from trading in child sex-slaves, child prostitution, and child pornography. Many of his houses appeared to stand vacant, though at least some of them were in fact used as torture and imprisonment centers where kidnapped girls were taken and held in underground dungeons.
Some of Dutrouxs homes were used in this way for several years following his early release, with a growing body of evidence to indicate that fact to the police. True to form though, authorities failed to act on the information, or acted on it in a way that showed either complete incompetence (according to most press reports), or police complicity in the operation (according to any sort of logic).
Police seem to have routinely ignored tips that later proved to be accurate, including a report from Dutroux's own mother that her son was holding girls prisoner in one of his houses. In addition, key facts were withheld from investigators working on the disappearances and lines of communication were unaccountably broken, inexcusably hindering the investigation.
Police did search one of Dutroux's homes on no less than three separate occasions over the course of the investigation. On at least two of those occasions, two of the missing girls were being held in heinous conditions imprisoned in a custom-built dungeon in the basement. Nevertheless, the police searches came up empty, despite the fact that the investigating officers reported hearing childrens voices on one occasion, according to the Guardian.
It was not until August 13, 1996, four years after the disappearances began, that authorities arrested Dutroux, along with his wife (an elementary school teacher), a lodger, a policeman, and a man the Guardian described as an associate with political connections elsewhere identified as Michel Lelievre.
Two days later, police again searched Dutroux's home and discovered the soundproof dungeon/torture center. As CNN reported, three years earlier police ignored tips from an informant who said Dutroux was building secret cellars to hold girls before selling them abroad. And in 1995, the same informant had told police that Dutroux had offered an unidentified third man the equivalent of $3,000 to $5,000 to kidnap girls.
Incredibly, it was later reported by the Guardian that police actually had in their possession a videotape of the dungeon being constructed: Belgian police could have saved the lives of two children allegedly murdered by the paedophile Marc Dutroux if they had watched a video seized from his home which showed him building their hidden cell. The tape had been seized in one of the earlier searches.
At the time of the final search, two fourteen-year-old girls were found imprisoned in the dungeon, chained and starving. They described to police being used as child prostitutes and in the production of child pornography videos. More than 300 such videos were taken into custody by the police.
On August 17, the story got grimmer as police dug up the bodies of two eight-year-old girls at another of Dutroux's homes. It would later be learned that the girls had been kept in one of Dutrouxs dungeons for nine months after their abductions, during which time they were repeatedly tortured and sexually assaulted, all captured on videotape. The girls were then left to slowly starve to death. Alongside of their decimated corpses was the body of Bernard Weinstein, a former accomplice of Dutroux who had occupied one of the houses for several years. Weinstein had been buried alive.
A few weeks later, two more girls were found buried under concrete at yet another of the Dutroux properties. By that time, ten people were reportedly in custody in connection to the case. Elsewhere in Belgium, the News Telegraph reported that: The corpses of two women and parts of a third body have been discovered in a freezer at a Lebanese restaurant in Brussels.
As the body count mounted, the outrage of the Belgian people grew. They demanded to know why this man, dubbed the 'Belgian Beast,' had been released after having served such an absurdly short sentence. And to know why, as evidence had continued to mount and girls had continued to disappear, the police had chosen to do nothing. How many girls, they demanded to know, had been killed as a result of this inaction?
Adding further fuel to the fire, as a Los Angeles Times report revealed, was that: a highly regarded childrens activist, Marie- France Botte, claims that the Justice Ministry is sitting on a politically sensitive list of customers of pedophile videotapes.
The same report noted that: The affair has become further clouded by the discovery of a motorcycle that reportedly matches the description of one used in the 1991 assassination of prominent Belgian businessman and politician Andre Cools. Michel Bourlet, the head prosecutor on the pedophile case, meanwhile, has publicly declared that the investigation can be thoroughly pursued only without political interference. Several years ago, Bourlet was removed from the highly charged Cools case, which remains unsolved.
A report in Time magazine alluded to murky links between the Dutroux operation and organized crime figures. Much later, Marc Verwilghen - the chief investigating magistrate on the case - would bluntly state: For me, the Dutroux affair is a question of organised crime. Also mentioned in the Time article was the use of secret underground tunnels, not unlike those described by children a decade earlier at the infamous McMartin Preschool.
Outrage continued to grow as more arrests were made and evidence of high-level government and police complicity continued to emerge. One of Dutroux's accomplices, businessman Jean-Michel Nihoul, confessed to organizing an orgy at a Belgian chateau that had been attended by government officials, a former European Commissioner, and a number of law enforcement officers. A Belgian senator would note, quite accurately, that such parties were part of a system which operates to this day and is used to blackmail the highly placed people who take part.
In September, twenty-three suspects - at least nine of whom were police officers - were detained and questioned about their possible complicity in the crimes and/or their negligence in investigating the case. As the Los Angeles Times noted in a very brief, two-sentence report, the detainments were the latest indication that police in the southern city of Charleroi may have helped cover up the alleged crimes of Marc Dutroux.
The arrests followed raids on the police officers homes and on the headquarters of the Charleroi police force and were based on information supplied by police inspector Georges Zicot, who had already been charged as an accomplice. Three magistrates had also reportedly been interrogated by police investigators.
Just days before the arrests, police had also arrested five suspects in the Cools assassination, including a former regional government minister named Alain VanderBiest. Strangely enough, the News Telegraph reported that: Police investigating the Cools murder in 1991 have been given helpful leads by some of those arrested in the Dutroux case. The Telegraph also noted that Cools had promised shocking revelations before his death.
On October 14 came the straw that broke the camel's back: Jean-Marc Connerotte, who had been serving as the investigating judge on the case, was dismissed by the Belgian Supreme Court. Connerotte was viewed by the people as something of a rarity: a public official/law enforcement officer who actually appeared to be pursuing a prosecution, rather than a cover-up. The News Telegraph described him as: the only figure in the judiciary who enjoys the nations confidence.
As the New York Times reported, Connerotte became a national hero in August after saving two children from a secret dungeon kept by a convicted child rapist and ordering the inquiry that led to the discovery of the bodies of four girls kidnapped by a child pornography network. He had also, in 1994, arrested three men as suspects in the Cools assassination just before the case was transferred to the jurisdiction of another magistrate.
His removal from the Dutroux case fanned the smoldering flames of public outrage; the Times report noted that: Hundreds of thousands of people had petitioned the high court to retain the judge. Adding yet more fuel to the fire, prosecutor Michel Bourlet was claiming that evidence suggested that a pedophile ring composed of the wealthy and powerful had been protected for twenty-five years.
With the families of Dutroux's victims calling for a general strike, men and women all across the country walked away from their jobs in protest as railway workers and bus drivers shut down public transportation, bringing some cities to a virtual standstill. The Telegraph reported that: In Liege, firemen turned their hoses on the citys court building to symbolize the massive clean-up that was in order.
On October 20, 350,000 citizens of the tiny nation took to the streets of Brussels dressed all in white, demanding the reform of a system so corrupt that it would protect the abusers, rapists, torturers, and killers of children. The political fallout from the case would ultimately bring about the resignation of Belgium's State Police Chief, Interior Minister, and Justice Minister likely sacrificial lambs tossed to the outraged masses to avoid what could easily have exploded into a full-scale insurrection by the people, particularly after police incompetence allowed Dutroux to escape and remain at large for a brief time in April of 1998.
There were in fact calls from the people for the entire coalition government to step down. Months later, an opinion survey by Brussels Le Soir newspaper found that only one-in-five Belgians still had confidence in the federal government and the nations justice system. As the Los Angeles Times reported in January of 1998, the conviction remains stubbornly widespread that members of the upper crust - government ministers, the Roman Catholic Church, the court of King Albert II - belonged to child sex rings, or protected them.
The lingering distrust of the people was not alleviated by the fact that a parliamentary inquiry had, in April of 1997, identified thirty officials who had, as the Times tactfully put it, failed to uncover Dutrouxs misdeeds. Nearly a year later, none of them had yet suffered any repercussions. Additionally, at least ten missing children suspected of having fallen prey to Dutrouxs operation have never been found.
The commissions report was, in many peoples eyes, a shameless cover-up. As the News Telegraph summarized, the report said competition between rival forces had prevented vital information from being exchanged and obvious evidence from being followed up rather than acknowledge the obvious, which was that rampant police corruption and complicity were to blame.
Just a few months before the commission issued its report, the Telegraph was reporting that: Grim rumors have been circulating that a second paedophile network at least as appalling may have been operating in parallel to that said to involve Dutroux. The bodies of seven children were believed to have been hidden by the ring, which was thought could be linked to Dutroux through Michel Nihoul.
Two months after that, a man named Patrick Derochette and three of his family members were arrested following the discovery of the body of a nine-year-old girl. Rumors quickly began circulating linking this crime to Dutroux as well. Like Dutroux, Derochette had previously been convicted on multiple counts of child rape. He had been committed to a psychiatric institution from which he was released after just six weeks.
Authorities quickly denied that there was any connection between the two cases. In January of 1998, however, the Telegraph reported that: new evidence from a lawyer involved in the investigations blows a hole in previous police claims that there was no link between the cases involving the alleged child murderers Marc Dutroux and Patrick Derochette. Once again, the connection was said to be through Nihoul.
In April of 1999, the Guardian reported that: the highly respected chairman of a parliamentary inquiry into the case claims that his commissions findings were muzzled by political and judicial leaders to prevent details emerging of complicity in the crimes Mr. Verwilghen claims that senior political and legal figures refused to cooperate with the inquiry. He says magistrates and police were officially told to refuse to answer certain questions, in what he describes as a characteristic smothering operation.
As of August of 2001, fully five years after Dutroux was taken into custody, his trial had yet to begin. Parents of victims continued to shout of a cover-up, and the Telegraph was reporting that: It was recently learnt that scientific tests on 6,000 hairs found in the [underground dungeon] began only this year. These tests could, of course, reveal how many victims passed through Dutrouxs chamber of horrors.
If the Marc Dutroux case were some kind of aberration, it would still be a disturbing story for the level of unspeakable corruption and depravity of the Belgian political and law enforcement establishment of which it speaks. Far more disturbing is the fact that it doesn't appear to be an isolated case at all.
As 1999 drew to a close, the nation of Latvia was rocked by a child prostitution/child pornography scandal that reached to the very top of the political power structure. The case first broke in August, when police uncovered a massive operation involving as many as 2,000 severely abused children. When media reports began linking top Latvian officials to the case, a special parliamentary commission was formed to investigate.
In February 2000, the chairman of the commission delivered a report to Parliament linking the country's Prime Minister, Justice Minister, director of the State Revenue Service, and a number of army and law enforcement officers to the case. Efforts were immediately begun to discredit the commission chairman, including allegations that he is tied to the former KGB a classic case of red-baiting, enabling the allegations to be dismissed as Communist propaganda.
The BBC reported in June of 1999 that two unnamed German men had gone on trial, accused of running a child pornography ring in Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic. The pair, along with at least eleven identified but unindicted accomplices, made video recordings of the gang sexually abusing children between the ages of three and 14 since 1993.
A large but unspecified quantity of videos, photography, magazines and CD-ROMs containing child pornography were confiscated. Also noted was a possible connection to the Dutroux case: There have been cases of Slovak children being taken to Vienna to make pornographic films. The Belgian paedophile Marc Dutroux was a regular visitor to one Slovak town.
The BBC also filed a brief report on a 1996 case that went almost completely unreported in the English language press: Mexican police broke up an international child pornography ring based in the resort of Acapulco which they said had at least four thousand clients in the United States, (emphasis added). A UN envoy investigating the case said that the child pornography sometimes involved babies of less than one month old.
On September 29 of 2000, The Irish Times reported that: Eight people were arrested in Italy and three in Russia, and police said 1,700 people were being investigated in Italy, as yet another pedophile network surfaced. The images traded by this ring were divided into several categories The most gruesome, police said, was coded Necros Pedo, in which children were raped and tortured to death.
And so it is that we first confront that most disturbing of topics snuff films, which we all know dont really exist. As recently as February of 1999, the New York Post assured readers that: Snuff films are the stuff of urban legend how did this legend get started? No one knows. The unfortunate truth though is that they do, as it turns out, actually exist, and they likely have existed for as long as film has existed, though they weren't always known by that name.
According to the Post: The term snuff was actually coined during the Charles Manson case, when press reports repeated a rumor that the Manson family had filmed home movies of the brutal slayings. Other reports hold that the term was coined in 1976 by a writer for the New York Times who was in need of a phrase to describe reports of murders following sexual activity being captured on film.
Not long after that, as Carl Raschke wrote: The Texas House Select Committee on Child Pornography disclosed in the late 1970s that investigators probing leads to organized crime in Houston, Dallas, and other major cities found that slave auctions for sixteen- and seventeen- year-old boys were routinely held in Mexico. Some of the boys were featured in brutal snuff or slasher movies.
Raschke also quotes from a study by U.S. mental health professionals that claimed that a child from Mexico can be packaged, delivered, and sold deep within this country in a short time, and that many are purchased solely for the purpose of killing. In Enslaved, Gordon Thomas reported that: At the start of the year [1991] Britain's Scotland Yard was continuing to investigate reports that up to twenty children in London had been murdered last year in [snuff films] and the video tapes sold on the Continent.
An account of the Italian case carried by the Guardian affirmed the existence of snuff films: police have discovered a massive international paedophile network selling violent child-pornography videos to clients in Italy, the US and Germany (authorities are) trying to identify 5,000 people who are suspected of attempting to purchase the videos, some of which appear to contain images of children being tortured and murdered.
The UKs Independent, in a follow-up published in November of 2000, also confirmed that the seized materials did in fact include child snuff films: Horrified investigators gathered images of more than 2,000 children who were filmed while being abused, raped, and killed. By that time, close to 1,500 people had been charged in the case, but not - as the Guardian noted - those in high places who are believed to form a paedophile lobby.
As in the Belgian and Latvian cases, there were clear indications of high-level complicity and a strong belief among the Italian people that the facts of the case were being covered up. And as with the other cases, the magistrate heading up the inquiry provoked a furore by denouncing a paedophile lobby supported by politicians which he said openly obstructed the investigators and worked to prevent tougher sanctions for the consumers of child pornography, according to the Independent.
The New York Times reported in March of 1997 that there is growing public indignation in France and elsewhere about the recurrent reports of kidnapping, rape or incest involving the very young. The same Times report noted that: police across France have detained more than 250 people and confiscated some 5,000 videocassettes in conjunction with an investigation into a massive child pornography ring. Those detained by police were described as mainly married professionals. A dozen of them would soon turn up dead, allegedly suicide victims.
In June, the News Telegraph spoke of over 800 French homes being raided and 204 suspects being taken into custody the week before. Among those detained were: More than 30 teachers and a number of priests, as well as the deputy mayor of the town of Saint Mihiel. By the end of the week, four had committed suicide, including a school headmaster.
Three years later, the BBC filed a very brief report noting that a verdict was due in the trial of more than sixty people accused of possessing child pornography. One of the judges hearing the case said examining the video evidence made him feel physically sick. In a familiar refrain, it was reported that: the French courts have been accused of attacking the easy targets -- porn consumers -- rather than producers and distributors. And one childrens rights group has alleged that senior public figures were among those investigated -- but their cases were dropped before coming to court.
In 1998, another large-scale international ring was discovered operating out of the Netherlands and Berlin, Germany. The New York Times reported that investigators called the case nauseating, in that images of abuse of even babies and infants were peddled via the Internet and other media. Police discovered voluminous records of what appear to be clients and suppliers from countries including Israel, Ukraine, Britain, Russia and the United States.
The ring was first uncovered when a key member was found dead in Italy. According to The Irish Times, he was murdered by another member of the ring. His apartment in the Dutch town of Zandvoort was found to contain thousands of digital images stored on computer disks, as well as hundreds of addresses of suspected suppliers and clients, according to the New York Times. The images shocked even veteran sex-crimes investigators, one of whom stated that the seized evidence left [him] speechless It looks like the perpetrators are not dealing with human beings but with objects.
In September 1998, another ring was raided what the BBC described as a larger and more sinister paedophile network called Wonderland. The network was so named in honor of Lewis Carrolls revered children's book, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Carroll was widely known to have a predilection for underage girls and boys, and is now something of a patron saint of pedophiles around the globe.
A concerted effort has been made over the decades to cover up Carrolls pedophilic tendencies, though the truth is evident even in the heavily whitewashed profiles of him that can be found in modern encyclopedias. Microsoft's Encarta notes that: Always a friend of children, particularly little girls, Carroll wrote thousands of letters to them, and also that he gained an additional measure of fame as an amateur photographer. Most of his camera portraits were of children in various costumes and poses, including nude studies.
The Encyclopaedia Britannica reports that Carrolls photographic hobby was abandoned in 1880, while dismissing suggestions that this sudden decision was reached because of an impurity of motive for his nude studies. Britannica also notes that Carroll - who was raised in an environment where there were few friends outside the family, and who was ordained a deacon in the Church of England on the winter solstice of 1861 (an occult holiday) - generally lost interest in his child friends when they reached the age of twelve.
Wonderland is also the name of the quarterly publication of the Lewis Carroll Collector's Guild, which bills itself as a voluntary association of persons who believe nudist materials are a constitutionally protected expression and whose collective interests include pre-teen nudes. As Gordon Thomas has noted: In Wonderland the delights of transgenerational sex pepper the pages. Such is the legacy of the men whose literary works are peddled to our children but here I digress.
The San Jose Mercury News reported that: Police in 22 states and 13 foreign countries conducted coordinated raids aimed at breaking up an Internet child-pornography ring The ring involves as many as 200 people around the world, who exchanged over the Internet thousands of sexually explicit images of children as young as 18 months. The Independent later reported that the ring shared pictures of children being abused - - in some cases live via web-cam broadcasts over the internet.
The raids included homes in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Norway, Portugal and Sweden, according to the New York Times, which added that: Several dozen people were arrested, but officials said they expected more than 100 to be charged. The Independent later reported that 107 suspects were ultimately arrested. The Mercury News implied that this may be only the tip of the iceberg: The ring actually extends into 47 countries.
The case was described by a British official as stomach-churning. The Times reported that Wonderland Club members are believed to have posed their own children for pictures In other cases parents may have taken money to let their children be used. The Guardian reported that over 1,250 children were featured in the photos and videos, many of whom suffered appalling injuries and were seen sobbing uncontrollably as they were being sexually violated. The Independent added that the victimized children were mostly under [the age of] 10.
A BBC report held that the combined raids resulted in the seizure of more than 750,000 computer images of children. A Detective Superintendent with the British National Crime Squad called these images disgusting and the behavior that has been carried out is absolutely appalling. Though ignored by the American press, Wonderland originated in the United States.
Among the scores of U.S. homes raided, one yielded a database of more than 100,000 sexual photographs of naked boys and girls. Interestingly enough, the Times also noted that another raid, in Missouri, turned up a cache of weapons as well as child pornography in a heavily fortified trailer, illustrating once again - as did the Dutroux case - the close ties between organized pedophilia and other terrorist assaults against society.
As with the earlier raids in Europe, a rash of suicides soon followed. By October 24, the Mercury News was reporting that no fewer than four of the thirty-four American suspects had killed themselves. These included a retired Air Force pilot, a microbiologist at the University of Connecticut, and a computer consultant in Colorado.
In the UK, the Wonderland raids - dubbed Operation Cathedral - resulted in the indictments of eight suspects. One of the eight turned up dead four months later another alleged suicide. The other seven were given ridiculously light sentences in February of 2001 for their complicity in inflicting unfathomable abuse on countless children. Sentences ranged from 12 to 30 months.
Just a few weeks before the sentences were handed down, the Guardian was reporting that: Police today arrested 13 suspected paedophiles in the largest ever UK operation against child pornography. Once again a massive amount of appalling evidence was seized, with most of the material featuring scenes of children being raped and sexually abused.
The Independent reported in February of 2001 that: Detectives working on the [Wonderland] case discovered that many of the paedophiles were also members of other child pornography groups. One of the groups most closely tied to Wonderland was a ring known as the Orchid Club, which had been exposed by a 1996 investigation in San Jose, California. That investigation had led to the indictment of sixteen men on charges of conspiring to produce and exchange child pornography. Members of the club were identified in at least nine states and three foreign countries.
By the time of the Wonderland raids, the Mercury News was able to report that the purported ringleader of the Orchid Club and twelve others either have pleaded guilty or have been convicted in connection with that case. Their crimes included recruiting young relatives and friends of their own children to be molested and photographed.
The club was also, like Wonderland, involved in real-time exploitation of children on the internet. Club members were able to send in requests and have them acted-out on live feeds. The club also held a pedophile summit, at which members traded stories about pre-teen girls they had molested and photographed in sexually explicit poses. The summit was held, appropriately enough, on April 20 the birth date of Adolf Hitler and a major satanic holiday.
In late March of 2001, yet another interlinked global network was exposed. The Independent reported that: US authorities announced the arrest of four American citizens for involvement in an international child-porn ring called Blue Orchid. The Los Angeles Times added further details the next day, reporting that the United States and Russia have shut down a Moscow-based international pornography ring that used the Internet to sell videotapes of children engaged in sexual acts.
These tapes were said to sell for between $200 and $300. An Associated Press release held that: Police seized some 600 videotapes, 200 digital video disks and many boxes of photographs. Video duplication equipment and sales and shipping records were also seized, leading to criminal inquiries in 24 nations Many of the tapes were bought by people in the United States; others went to Germany, Britain, France, Denmark, China, Kuwait, Mexico and scores of other countries.
The Times reported that nine people had been arrested and fifteen search warrants issued. The AP report noted that four of those arrested were in Russia, where two suspects had, alas, committed suicide. The ring was also said by the Times to offer what were cryptically referred to as custom-made videos for the hefty price of $5,000 each. The contents of these videos were not revealed.
What was revealed though was that the prevalence of child pornography has increased dramatically with the growth of the Internet. There are approximately 100,000 web sites worldwide associated with child pornography. This point was reinforced the very next day when the UK press reported police raids on yet another pedophile ring.
The Guardian reported that: More than 30 people, including a man working for a national youth organization, were arrested yesterday in dawn raids on the homes of suspected paedophiles. Once again being sold and traded were images which showed children being abused.
A report on the case in the Independent quoted a law enforcement spokesman as revealing that those arrested included members of some interesting professions, though demurring from revealing what those professions might be. The official also said that they had a disturbing scenario of one or two juveniles who have been caught in this way. One of them appears to be a 13-year-old boy.
The police did acknowledge that the arrested boy was also a potential victim and would be treated in that light, which seems rather obvious. Nevertheless, a follow-up to the story that the Independent ran in May reported that the boy had become one of the youngest people to be listed on the sex offenders register.
The very next month, the Guardian carried a report on Eric Franklin Rosser accused child pornographer, one of the FBI's ten most wanted criminals and a former keyboardist for John Cougar Mellencamps band. According to the report: Investigators believe Rossers material is among pornography circulated by a British paedophile ring More than 1,800 members are thought to belong to a club called Teenboys. Its website features boys aged around 12 Teenboys is considered bigger than the notorious Wonderland Club.
Meanwhile, a pedophile ring in Australia with high-level government connections was handled in a slightly different way. As The Irish Times reported on July 17, 1998:
Police suspect a series of gruesome gay hate killings in the Sydney region could be the work of a serial killer whose victims might be linked through a notorious paedophile ring. The latest mutilation murder was that of Australia's longest serving mayor, Frank Arkell, aged 68, who was bludgeoned to death in his flat and who had previously faced 29 child sex charges.
In the past few months two other men, one a convicted child sex offender, were attacked in their homes in similar circumstances and also suffered horrific injuries. Arkell, the former Lord Mayor of Wollongong, 50 miles south of Sydney, was a key witness in a royal commission into police corruption which uncovered a network of paedophiles.
Those serial killers sure come in handy sometimes.

"We can't know yet what happened exactly, because both women are temporarily under tranquilizers at a psychiatric institution," a police source revealed to the Clarin newspaper.
Did you miss that?
THEY WERE FUCKING NUTS! Lunatics! LMAO!
But because they mentioned Satan, you latched onto that while ignoring the rest.
So, tell me, did you watch the video? I bet not... ;)
According to Jose Maria Baamonde, a psychologist from Fundacion Spes, a Catholic institution dedicated to studying the growing number of sects and cults
A truly unbiased source if ever there was one...
Perhaps they have a catholic institution to study pedophile clergy too? Perhaps there is one that studies the financial irregularities of mother theresa and her order? I rather doubt it.
I say to each man and woman, you are unique and sovereign, the center of a universe. However right I may be in thinking as I do, you may be equally right in thinking otherwise. You can only accomplish your object in life by complete disregard of the opinions of other people. - Aleister Crowley
So, tell me, did you watch the video? I bet not... ;)
I watched part of it, but a woman (a black woman at that, I'm surprised you even posted the video since you have thing about black people), who claims to speak the truth about everything the Temple of Set is all about, certainly doesn't convince me of anything.

What I find interesting is that they will accuse people of being Satanists when they do these crimes, yet when a xtian does these very same things the xtians are the first to say that "we don't condone this", when they have a history of condoning these things, and much worse things.
xtians murder in the name of jebus and gawd all the time. The gulf war would not have been possible without their "for god and country" support. WTF, about 50% even support torture.
This world is a fucked up mess. The 3 kike gawd based religions are a huge part of this worldwide clusterfuckery. It's not satanists that are doing these things.
I think that there are more here that have more in common with satanism than they do with xtianity. Xtianity is for mindless sheep. If anyone can think for themselves and not be told by a fucking book or another person what they must believe, then they are satanic already. Even, imo, if they call themselves atheists, because they think for themselves too.

WEll, ain't this a fortuitous coincidence? I just posted the above as you were posting your latest. I already answered you in that post.
None I associate with do any such acts. Can you say the same?

Most people would consider what they did to be "fucking nuts" as well. You apparently missed the part of the story where they were dabbling in black magic and "invoking satan".
"The real deal is this: the royalty controlling the court, the ones with the power, the ones with the ability to make a difference, with the ability to change our course, the ones who will live in infamy if we pass the tipping points, are the captains of industry, CEOs in fossil fuel companies such as EXXON/Mobil, automobile manufacturers, utilities, all of the leaders who have placed short-term profit above the fate of the planet and the well-being of our children." - James Hansen

You associate with the Temple of Set, whose founder IS a satanist and a pedophile.
I know of NOBODY who does the things your pal has done, or anything related to those sorts of things.
"The real deal is this: the royalty controlling the court, the ones with the power, the ones with the ability to make a difference, with the ability to change our course, the ones who will live in infamy if we pass the tipping points, are the captains of industry, CEOs in fossil fuel companies such as EXXON/Mobil, automobile manufacturers, utilities, all of the leaders who have placed short-term profit above the fate of the planet and the well-being of our children." - James Hansen
Where have I said that Christians are innocent of vile acts? I'm not a Christian (nor Jewish or Muslim), so don't try to use that as a weapon against me.

BTW, it's quite obvious that you hate Christians, since you use the "Xtian" spelling in order to avoid even typing the word Christ.
A satanist is just a person who is anti-christian, deciding to do things which can be seen as sacriligeous in order to "act out" their hatred.
It is a religion, but a twisted one since it is based on hatred.

One cannot be a "dabbler" and "invoke" Satan. Not that I ever tried to do that. I'm still a newbie that has done nothing yet. But I do know that it takes concentration and knowledge to do anything related to the occult. Undisciplined fucktards like these do not have that dedication. It's like a punk kid going into a dojo and telling him that he wants to learn how to beat up a bully that's bothering him. He will only be shown the door. To try and teach him is a waste of time.
** You associate with the Temple of Set, whose founder IS a satanist and a pedophile. **
I'm not a member. I simply agree with the videos message. Perhaps you could watch it and hear the message for yourself. Or not. Probably not.
You call him a satanist. You really have no idea what you are talking about. There are for all intents and purposes, an infinite variety of satanists. I bet most of them don't even believe in a real being called by most people "Satan".
You call him a pedophile. Perhaps he got away with it huh? All his satanist buddies in the FBI intentionally dropped the ball, right? And the press, we all know what a hotbed of satanists the press is. A coven in every bullpen, huh? A warlock in every corner office, right? Right.
** Where have I said that Christians are innocent of vile acts? I'm not a Christian (nor Jewish or Muslim), so don't try to use that as a weapon against me. **
I'm not using any "weapons" against you. I'm simply stating facts. This is the argument that xtians use. If you're not a xtian, then it doesn't apply to you.
**BTW, it's quite obvious that you hate Christians, since you use the "Xtian" spelling in order to avoid even typing the word Christ. **
Fuck Christ. Is that better?
** A satanist is just a person who is anti-christian, deciding to do things which can be seen as sacriligeous in order to "act out" their hatred. **
Some are. True enough.
However, in my case it is not really an action against xtianity. Then again, in a way it is.
I used to be one. I know it from the inside, and that is an advantage I have over someone that was not raised that way. On the other hand, it was a fucking waste of decades, and that does bring up the hatred, no doubt about it.
Right now I have more in common with my own "brand" of satanism than any other "religion". It is a religion that is based on total independence from what other people want from me. I answer to no one for what I believe. Not anymore.
I say to each man and woman, you are unique and sovereign, the center of a universe. However right I may be in thinking as I do, you may be equally right in thinking otherwise. You can only accomplish your object in life by complete disregard of the opinions of other people. - Aleister Crowley
Perhaps you should channel your energy into something more constructive, such as Buddhism.
You won't find happiness in pursuing satanism, you'll more than likely become possessed by evil, and become as evil as others who have also fallen victim to it, such as Dutroux.

Perhaps you should channel your energy into something more constructive, such as Buddhism.
Buddhism can be a part of satanism. Not that I am an expert on either one. I know next to nothing about Buddhism. But Buddhists meditate, right? So do satanists. They are probably the same kinds of meditations too.
And define "evil". Like I read somewhere, a cat, to a mouse, is evil.
I say to each man and woman, you are unique and sovereign, the center of a universe. However right I may be in thinking as I do, you may be equally right in thinking otherwise. You can only accomplish your object in life by complete disregard of the opinions of other people. - Aleister Crowley

Do you even know what Set is? It's the Egyptian god who is the embodiment of evil, similar in many respects to what the Christians view as satan or the devil.
As far as Aquino, have you ever really looked up info on this guy? He was once a member of the Church of Satan as well.
You call him a pedophile. Perhaps he got away with it huh? All his satanist buddies in the FBI intentionally dropped the ball, right? And the press, we all know what a hotbed of satanists the press is. A coven in every bullpen, huh? A warlock in every corner office, right? Right.
"It should come as no surprise, then, that long- time CIA and intelligence complex operatives turn up on the FMSF Advisory Board. Perhaps the most public member has been Dr. Louis Jolyon Jolly West, a legendary figure in CIA mind control circles operating out of UCLA. Another is Dr. Martin Orne, an authority on torture who currently works at the University of Pennsylvanias Experimental Psychiatry Lab Still another false memory luminary is Margaret Singer, professor emeritus at the University of California-Berkeley."
Toward Freedom, May 1998
One of the names raised at the Bonacci trial was that of Michael Aquino. Aquino is the High Priest and chief executive of the Temple of Set, an overtly satanic cult that split off from the Church of Satan in 1975. Besides tending to those duties, Aquino also has occupied his time serving as (according to an official biography once circulated by the Temple) a Lieutenant Colonel, Military Intelligence, U.S. Army.
Aquino was accused in court by the mother of a victim as being a key player in a nationwide pedophile ring. Paul Bonacci himself has also positively identified Aquino as an associate of King, known to the children only as 'the Colonel.' King's personal photographer has identified Aquino as the man to whom he saw King hand over a suitcase full of cash and bonds.
The photographer, Rusty Nelson, also has said that King told him that Aquino was part of the Contra guns and cocaine trafficking operation run by George Bush and another notorious Lt. Col., Oliver North. Aquino has also been linked to Offutt Air Force Base, a Strategic Air Command post near Omaha that was implicated in the investigation by the Franklin Committee. He was also claimed to have ordered the abduction of a Des Moines, Iowa paperboy.
This was certainly not the first time that Aquino had been implicated as a key figure in large scale pedophile/child pornography rings. In July of 1988, not long before the King and Spence cases broke, the San Jose Mercury News ran a lengthy exposé on the Presidio Child Development Center run by the U.S. Army in San Francisco.
Allegations of abuse being perpetrated at the center first emerged in November of 1986. Alarmed by accusations made by her child, a parent had sought a medical examination which confirmed that the three- year-old boy had in fact been anally raped. The boy identified his rapist as 'Mr. Gary,' a teacher at the center named Gary Hambright.
Even with the conclusive medical evidence, it took the Army almost a month to notify the parents of other children who had been in 'Mr. Gary's' class that the incident had taken place. Within a year, at least sixty victims had been identified, all between the ages of three and seven, and further allegations would be made by parents that several more children were molested even after the investigation had begun.
Amazingly enough, the center remained open for more than a year after the first case of abuse was reported, though the Mercury News noted that day care centers under state jurisdiction are routinely closed when an abuse incident is confirmed. And this was considerably more than a simple abuse incident that was confirmed.
The stories told by the children implicated many other perpetrators besides Hambright. They also told of being taken away from the center to be abused in private homes; at least three such houses were positively identified. They also told of being forced to play poopoo baseball and the googoo game 'games' that involved the children being urinated and defecated upon, and being forced to ingest urine and feces.
Many of them also spoke of having guns pointed at them and of having been told that they and/or their parents and siblings would be killed if they told anyone what had been done to them. Despite the mounting number of victim/witnesses, and the numerous crimes alleged by these children, it was only Gary Hambright who was arrested - on January 5, 1987 - and he was charged with abusing just a single child. And even then the charges were dismissed just three months later, in March of 1987.
There is little doubt that literally dozens of children were in fact severely abused at the center. There was irrefutable medical evidence to document that fact. Five of the children had contracted chlamydia, a sexually transmitted disease; many others showed clear signs of anal and genital trauma consistent with violent penetration, which authorities chose to ignore. One mother complained to the San Francisco Chronicle that the FBI never interviewed her or her son, even after doctors had confirmed the boys abuse.
There were unmistakable psychological signs as well. As The American Journal of Orthopsychiatry noted in April of 1992: The severity of the trauma for children at the Presidio was immediately manifest in clear cut symptoms. Before the abuse was exposed, parents had already noticed the following changes in their children: vaginal discharge, genital soreness, rashes, fear of the dark, sleep disturbances, nightmares, sexually provocative language, and sexually inappropriate behavior. In addition, the children were exhibiting other radical changes in behavior, including temper outbursts, sudden mood shifts, and poor impulse control. All these behavioral symptoms are to be expected in preschool children who have been molested.
The journal article, written by Diane Ehrensaft, Ph.D., also noted that: The Presidio case has confronted both the public at large and the mental health community with an extraordinary and abhorrent situation of grave psychological proportions: the willful molestation of young boys and girls by representatives of the most patriarchal and supposedly protective arm of the American government the U.S. Army.
The article further noted the nearly homicidal rage provoked in the fathers of the children abused in this way, as they saw the investigations of the crimes perpetrated against their children stonewalled and covered up. One father is quoted as saying: When something about the Presidio comes on TV, I want to blow someone away. Another father echoed this sentiment: I was ready to blow the army base away.
One of those who the fathers would have liked to blow away was Michael Aquino, along with his wife Lilith. One child positively identified the pair, known to the kids as 'Mikey' and 'Shamby,' and was also able to positively identify the Aquino's home and to describe with uncanny accuracy the distinctively satanic interior of the house. The young witness also claimed to have been photographed at the Aquinos' home.
On August 14 of 1987, a search warrant was served on the house. Confiscated in the raid were numerous videotapes, photographs, photo albums, photographic negatives, cassette tapes, and name and address books. Also observed was what appeared to be a soundproof room. Neither Aquino nor his wife were charged with any crimes, nor have they been to this day a fact that Aquino claims proves his innocence.
The next month, a fire - which the Army deemed to be accidental - destroyed the Army Community Services Building adjacent to the Presidio's day care center. Strangely enough, the fire occurred on the autumnal equinox, a major event on the satanic calendar, as the Mercury News noted. The fire also destroyed some of the center's records.
Three weeks later, fire struck again, this time at the day care center itself. A building that housed four classrooms, including that of Gary Hambright, was completely destroyed. Investigators from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms determined that both fires, contrary to the Army's finding, had been arson.
In between the first and second fires (with evidence indicating that a third arson attempt had been made as well), Hambright was again indicted, this time charged with molesting ten children. In February of 1988, all but one of the charges were dropped. Shortly thereafter, the remaining count was dropped as well, and Hambright was a free man once again. No further charges were brought against him.
In January of 1988, Aquino filed suit against the Army to have it cleared from his record that he had been investigated as a suspected pedophile. According to court records, he also had the gall to charge Captain Adams-Thompson [the father of a victim] with conduct unbecoming an officer because the Captain reported the allegations of child abuse to the San Francisco police.
In denying Aquino's motion, the court concluded that there was probable cause to title Aquino with offenses of indecent acts with a child, sodomy, conspiracy, kidnapping, and false swearing, despite the fact that the San Francisco police department (SFPD) closed its investigation and filed no charges against the plaintiff or anyone else.
Aquino and various of his defenders have consistently claimed that no one was ever prosecuted in the case due to a lack of evidence proof that the entire affair was no more than a witch hunt. Of course, the failure to prosecute the federal charges could also be due to the fact that, at the time, the U.S. Attorney in San Francisco handling the case was Joseph Russoniello.
Russoniello would later be identified by reporter Gary Webb of the San Jose Mercury News as a player in the Contra cocaine smuggling operation led by Lt. Col. Oliver North and company, just as witnesses would later identify Lt. Col. Michael Aquino as an operative in the very same sordid affair. It always helps when your legal adversaries are actually on your side.
In May of 1989, Aquino was again questioned in connection with child abuse investigations; this time at least five children in three cities were making the accusations. The children had seen Aquino in newspaper and television coverage of the Presidio case and immediately recognized him as one of their abusers.
Three of the children lived in Ukiah - former home of the Peoples Temple - where Police Chief Fred Keplinger was overseeing the investigation of the allegations. The Mercury News quoted the chief as saying that the children are believable. I have no doubt in my mind that something has occurred. Aquino was also identified by children in Santa Rosa and Fort Bragg.
In the Fort Bragg case, allegations of ritual abuse erupted ... in 1985 when several children at the Jubilation Day Care Center said they were sexually abused by a number of people at the day care center and at several locations away from the center, including at least two churches. Aquino was identified as having been at one of those churches.
The Mercury News also reported that there was clear evidence of satanic cult activity on the grounds of the Presidio base, including an abundance of satanic graffiti, a satanic altar, and numerous artifacts of satanic rituals. A former MP at the base is quoted as saying: We were sitting there, we've got a cult on the Presidio of San Francisco and nobody cares about it ... We were told by the provost marshal to just forget about it.
On April 19, 1988 - the eve of Adolf Hitlers birthday, and seven years to the day before the Oklahoma City Federal Building would explode, allegedly due to an act of domestic terrorism- an open-house was held on the grounds of the Presidio heralding the opening of the new day care facility built to replace the fire-damaged Child Development Center.
As a final note on the Presidio case, a report in the Marin Independent Journal revealed that Aquino owned a building in Marin County - inherited from his mother, Betty Ford-Aquino - that had been jointly leased to the Marin County Child Abuse Council and Project Care for Children. The stated purpose of Project Care was, interestingly enough, to assist parents in locating day care for their children.
As disturbing as the Presidio case was, it was just one of many ritual abuse cases directly tied to one or more branches of the United States armed forces. As the Mercury News reported: By November, 1987 the Army had received allegations of child abuse at 15 of its day care centers and several elementary schools. There were also at least two cases in Air Force day care centers, and another in a center run by the U.S. Navy.
In addition, a special team of experts was sent to Panama [in June of 1988] to help determine if as many as 10 children at a Department of Defense elementary school had been molested and possibly infected with AIDS. Yet another case emerged in a U.S.-run facility in West Germany.
These cases erupted at some of the most esteemed military bases in the country, including Fort Dix, Fort Leavenworth, Fort Jackson, and West Point. Many of those making the accusations were career military officers who had devoted their lives to unquestioned allegiance to the U.S. armed forces. Many would resign their posts in outraged protest.
It would be redundant to review all these cases, as most of them followed a remarkably similar pattern. Given though that West Point is America's premier military academy, and given also that the case - like many others - was linked by witnesses to the Presidio, a brief review is warranted here.
As The Times Herald Record reported in June of 1991: The incidents [at the West Point Child Development Center] unfolded against a backdrop of satanic acts, animal sacrifices and cult-like behavior among the abusers, whose activities extended beyond the U.S. Military Academy borders to Orange County and a military base in San Francisco, parents charged.
The case first broke in July of 1984, when a three-year-old girl found herself in the emergency room of the West Point Hospital with a lacerated vagina. She told the examining physician that a teacher at the day care center had hurt her. The next month, the parents of another child leveled accusations of abuse at the center.
As the Mercury News reported: By the end of the year, 50 children had been interviewed by investigators. Children at West Point told stories that would become horrifyingly familiar. They said they had been ritually abused. They said they had had excrement smeared on their bodies and been forced to eat feces and drink urine. They said they were taken away from the day care center and photographed.
Despite abundant medical and psychological evidence, and literally dozens of child witnesses, and despite 950 interviews by 60 FBI agents assigned to the investigation, an investigation led by former U.S. Attorney Rudolph Giuliani produced no federal grand jury indictments, according to the Herald Record.
The Herald also noted that: In 1987, Giuliani said his detailed investigation showed only one or two children were abused. This was, it should be noted, a bare-faced lie from the fascistic future-mayor and would-be Senator, as the Herald report divulged: a still-secret, independent report - produced by one of the nation's top experts on child sexual abuse - confirms the children's accusations of abuse.
This was not the first time that the prestigious academy had shown an appalling willingness to overlook extreme levels of abuse directed at children by army personnel. A year before the abuse case broke, a 22-month-old child was murdered by an Army staff sergeant. The Mercury News reported that: After a court martial hearing, the sergeant was given an 18 month suspended sentence and dishonorable discharge.
In other words, he served no time and was essentially given a free ride for murdering a child. With help from Giuliani, the FBI, the U.S. Army, and the grand jury, the abusers of countless children at the day care center (which was, appropriately enough, building number 666 on the academy grounds) were likewise given a free ride.
As with the Franklin case, the children and their parents were to find justice only through the civil courts. The Herald Record reported that: lawyers for both the government and the 11 child plaintiffs agreed that some children were sexually abused at the center two years ago (again contradicting Giuliani's bogus conclusions). The government, however, claimed that it could not be held responsible, due to the assault exemption in the Federal Tort Claim Act.
As the New York Times explained: under federal law the government cannot be held liable for assaults committed by its employees and thus cannot be sued for assault. In other words, the Army did not dispute the allegations, it just rather cavalierly maintained that it was exempt from being sued. The court saw otherwise and awarded $2.7 million to nine of the child victims paltry compensation for their suffering, but a victory of sorts nonetheless.
The Times opined that the settlement amount was large for a child-abuse case in which no criminal charges were filed. The article claimed that the failure to prosecute the case was due to the fact that the Federal Bureau of Investigation found insufficient evidence to prosecute, when in fact the Bureau appears to have deliberately ignored and/or covered-up that evidence.
And so ended the West Point case, except that - as one mother noted - it was hardly over: These people stole our children. She's nothing like she used to be. She's a very angry little girl. She doesn't trust anyone. She's nothing like she was before this happened. It's never going to be over for them, or for us.
The mother of a Presidio victim had this to say: People keep telling us we've got to let it go -- just forget about it and go on ... Three weeks ago, our youngest daughter was having nightmares and our other daughter was closing out the whole world, going to her room and siting there, with no radio, no TV, no nothing. Tell me it's over.
I cannot accept promotion in a system that at first refused to acknowledge and now refuses to deal with the victims of extensive child abuse that occurred at the West Point Child Development Center.

"The real deal is this: the royalty controlling the court, the ones with the power, the ones with the ability to make a difference, with the ability to change our course, the ones who will live in infamy if we pass the tipping points, are the captains of industry, CEOs in fossil fuel companies such as EXXON/Mobil, automobile manufacturers, utilities, all of the leaders who have placed short-term profit above the fate of the planet and the well-being of our children." - James Hansen
And define "evil". Like I read somewhere, a cat, to a mouse, is evil.
Well look up Spanish Inquisition, you might get an idea of what constitutes evil.
Also, look through the posts relating to child rape and torture, perhaps you'll get an idea from that as well.

LOS ANGELES, Jan 7. 1999 (Reuters)
Psychiatrist Louis Jolyon West, an expert on cults, torture and brainwashing who examined Jack Ruby and Patricia Hearst during their trials, has died at age 74, associates said on Thursday.
...
The panel found her sane and fit to stand trial, but West wrote that she was "psychologically damaged as a result of torture by the SLA.''
The experts also urged that Hearst receive treatment for her mental illness before her 1976 trial, but the court ignored the recommendation.
"The government finished the destruction of her life started by an anti-government group,'' West said after Hearst was convicted.
Doesn't sound like a .gov stooge to me.
Come to think of it, I am not Aquinos defense attorney and he is not on trial. I'm no longer going to go over every allegation someone made against him just because you posted an article.
Did he do it? How the fuck should I know? I wasn't there. Should allegations be made that he did it? Not without proof. Allegations =/= proof.

Those xtians were rather insistent on getting their way, weren't they?
When it comes to the acts you listed, it's already been acknowledged that these things are not to be done to anyone. The Infamous Crowley stated as much, as has already been posted here, and he was the "wickedest man in the world" at the time.
