An "impending computer catastrophe" is said by many to loom,
|
|
in the year 2000. When the year 2000 hits, most computers as now
|
|
configured will register the year as 1900. Says Rep. Constance
|
|
Morella (R-Md.): "We are right now competing in a race against
|
|
time to avert an impending computer catastrophe... When that
|
|
happens, millions of computers, billions of dollars, and just
|
|
about every human on the planet may be affected."
|
|
And, Conspiracy Nation has heard fears expressed that such a
|
|
computer catastrophe may be used by President Clinton as an
|
|
excuse to invoke martial law.
|
|
Reportedly, major industries with the potential to help avert
|
|
the disaster (like Bill Gates and Microsoft, for example) are
|
|
"solving" the problem by closing their eyes to it. And what will
|
|
President Bozo the Clown do? He will probably be in office when
|
|
the meltdown occurs. Maybe he could get a "symbolic computer,"
|
|
go on national television, fix it, and thereby solve the problem
|
|
through symbolism. -- (AP, 6/9/97) and (Conspiracy Nation)

A new book dealing with the crash of a UFO near Roswell, New
|
|
Mexico (*The Day After Roswell*), contains a foreword written by
|
|
Senator Strom Thurmond (R.-S.C.). The author of the book, Philip
|
|
J. Corso, served on the National Security Council under President
|
|
Eisenhower. Corso reportedly claims the UFO crash at Roswell
|
|
*was* an alien spacecraft and that the government "clandestinely
|
|
fed the alien technology to the military and industry." Senator
|
|
Thurmond disavows any personal belief in alien spacecraft, saying
|
|
he thought Corso's book was an autobiography. -- (New York Times

|
A federal trial has begun in Tampa, Florida, charging members
|
|
of a jury nullification group with conspiracy to mail threatening
|
|
letters to jurors. "Jury nullification" involves the idea that
|
|
"jurors may choose not to hold defendants accountable under a law
|
|
they oppose." In other words, if jurors think a particular law
|
|
is unjust, they may find the defendant "not guilty," even if the
|
|
defendant has actually broken that law.
|
|
As noted, the feds have charged the group with "conspiracy."
|
|
Hah, hah, hah. Oh you feds, you "conspiracy nuts" you. Why is
|
|
it the feds can say "conspiracy" and no one smirks and laughs,
|
|
but when the common people say "conspiracy" they are ridiculed?

Gary Webb, the reporter for the San Jose Mercury News whose
|
|
"Dark Alliance" series linked the CIA to sales of crack cocaine
|
|
in the U.S., is being transferred by his newspaper 150 miles
|
|
away, to a small suburban bureau. Like Dr. Whitehurst, the FBI
|
|
whistleblower, Webb's "reward" for essentially honest reporting
|
|
is transfer to Siberia. Get the message, all budding journalists
|
|
and potential whistleblowers?
|
|
Claims Webb: "This is just harassment. This isn't the first
|
|
time that a reporter went after the CIA and lost his job over
|
|
it." Although some criticism has arisen over Webb's series on
|
|
CIA-drug connections, he would not back down from his basic
|
|
story. This editor is of the opinion that Webb's story *is*
|
|
essentially correct. And Rep. Maxine Waters (D.-CA) apparently
|
|
feels there is something to the charges also; she continues to
|
|
lead a congressional investigation into the matter.
|
|
In further developments, Webb now claims he was threatened
|
|
with losing his job unless he stopped work on the series of
|
|
reports, "Dark Alliance." -- (AP, 6/11/97 & 6/12/97) and

Frank Olson, who was slipped LSD in a CIA experiment in 1953,
|
|
may not have jumped to his death. A forensic examination of his
|
|
skull indicates he died of "blunt trauma" that could not have
|
|
been caused by a subsequent fall from a 13th-floor window. As
|
|
background, readers should know that during the 1950s (and
|
|
reportedly beyond) the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) was
|
|
importing massive quantities of LSD, an hallucinogenic drug, from
|
|
Sandoz laboratories. This LSD was used in CIA attempts to create
|
|
mind-controlled assassins -- "Manchurian candidates." Many
|
|
Americans were surreptitiously given the drug and then observed
|
|
by CIA, often through 1-way mirrors. If Frank Olson did not jump
|
|
to his death, was he in fact murdered, either intentionally or
|
|
otherwise, and then tossed out the window to cover up the crime?

Tests have been performed on the rifle with which James Earl
|
|
Ray allegedly shot Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Results of the
|
|
tests are scheduled for release on June 18, 1997. But more tests
|
|
have reportedly been sought by one of the firearms testers, hired
|
|
by Ray's lawyers. Robert A. Hathaway claims "a misunderstanding
|
|
on how the rifle was to be cleaned before firing may have
|
|
affected the testing outcome." For the real story of why and how
|
|
Dr. King was murdered, read *ORDERS TO KILL* by William F.
|

Pepper. -- (AP, 6/11/97) and (Conspiracy Nation)

Vice President Al Gore has condemned "extreme individualism."
|
|
As usual, Gore's further comments were wishy-washy; no one would
|
|
accuse *him* of being an "extremist." (AP, 6/12/97) and

Associated Press reports Congressman Gerald Solomon (R.-NY)
|
|
saying electronic intercepts confirm that Clinton ally John Huang
|
|
"committed economic espionage." It is now corroborated that
|
|
Huang passed classified info to the Lippo Group while working as
|
|
a high-level Commerce Department employee. The Lippo Group, says
|
|
AP, "has substantial dealings with [Red] China."
|
|
Solomon also claims Huang "may have had even more exposure to
|
|
classified information than we had previously known."
|
|
Here is what probably happened. Huang, connected to Lippo
|
|
Group (and to Red China?), leaves Lippo and raises funds for
|
|
Clinton. Clinton gets elected, and Huang's reward is a
|
|
high-level security clearance and Commerce Department job. Then
|
|
Huang sends classified info to the Lippo Group, and at least some
|
|
of that information gets passed along to Red China. AND: Was
|
|
John Huang actually an agent for Red China, or do you think the
|
|
"chinks" are too dumb to have hatched such a plot?
|
|
The Chinese are wonderful people; I have known several. But
|
|
what is Red China up to? And why, incidentally, are they helping
|
|
to arm street gangs here in the U.S.?
