No real loss because the problems with the research there have become more evident -- and the fact that I was pointing that out needless to say didn't sit well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I began to look also into the victims in my area -- 5 actually grew up in my town. Another 7, either living here or in nearby towns. Also, a good number of them worked for Canter Fitzgerald. At any rate, I had found four who went to the Westfield High School and it just happened that my library had put the yearbooks online - as well as our town paper. The yearbooks go back to '29 and the Westfield Leader to '02! It's the kind of small town paper where you can find info on people from kindergarden to Junior High honor role and high school graduations. And, being in town, I was able to physically inspect most of the yearbooks. Only a handful of them aren't in the library.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At any rate, I didn't want to post the info at September Clues because it would make clear exactly where I live. So I passed the info on to Simon. At least on three of them. As I went to send info in on the last one, I realized I was "suspended."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But this is all 100% verifiable info that these people were REAL.&lt;br /&gt;I was hoping that they weren't, actually. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8009371-140467092253603617?l=covertoperations.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://covertoperations.blogspot.com/feeds/140467092253603617/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8009371&amp;postID=140467092253603617&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8009371/posts/default/140467092253603617'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8009371/posts/default/140467092253603617'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://covertoperations.blogspot.com/2009/11/simon-shack-has-agenda.html' title='Simon Shack Has an Agenda'/><author><name>spooked</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08266697181345871878</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='11990093039639937979'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8009371.post-2470097564220863148</id><published>2009-11-22T13:05:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2009-11-22T13:07:18.496-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Senate Deigns to "Debate" Health Care Legislation</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/11/21/sealed-with-a-kiss-dems-u_n_366626.html" target="_blank"&gt;Yahoo.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8009371-2470097564220863148?l=covertoperations.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://covertoperations.blogspot.com/feeds/2470097564220863148/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8009371&amp;postID=2470097564220863148&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8009371/posts/default/2470097564220863148'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8009371/posts/default/2470097564220863148'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://covertoperations.blogspot.com/2009/11/senate-deigns-to-debate-health-care.html' title='Senate Deigns to &quot;Debate&quot; Health Care Legislation'/><author><name>spooked</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08266697181345871878</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='11990093039639937979'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8009371.post-635484282369054420</id><published>2009-11-22T08:37:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2009-11-22T08:50:30.935-05:00</updated><title type='text'>"2012": The Movie</title><content type='html'>It sucked more than I thought it would.  It had its moments, especially early on, but it was basically a disappointment.  I didn't even see a "33" in it.  The graphics were pretty cool-- massive scenes of destruction-- but the action scenes were way over the top.  Way too many scenes of ridiculous close-calls.  The worst part was the last half hour, which was like a lame remake of the "Poseidon Adventure".  Overall I thought their would be more of a conspiracy angle, but the destruction of the earth revolved simply around too much solar activity because of an alignment of the planets.

The second biggest story on the Planet is the suppression of this story for almost two weeks by the corporate owned mainstream news media.  &lt;p&gt;There is a lot we know and a lot that we can only speculate on about what is unfolding in Central Europe. We know that in mid-October, less than a month ago, there was a growing number of cases of what many thought was Swine Flu (A/H1N1) in the western part of the Ukraine. We know that many hundreds if not thousands of people in western Ukraine witnessed low flying light airplanes aerosol spraying something over Ukrainian cities during the days of October 29, 2009 and October 31, 2009. We know that beginning the night of October 29th, massive numbers of people begin to get very sick. We know that the Ukraine government issued a statement denying that it was doing any aerial spraying to combat the growing disease or authorizing any spraying over Ukrainian cities. We know that by October 30th, the Ukrainian authorities closed all schools for three weeks and banded public gatherings.&lt;span id="more-4859"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;We do NOT know what disease the people were/are coming down with. We do know that doctors are describing the disease as Pneumonic Plague, or as some type of hemorrhagic fever, or as hemorrhagic influenza, or as hemorrhagic pneumonia. We know that the illness, whatever it is, does not appear to be A/H1N1. We do not know if the disease is a recombination of A/H1N1 with other viruses or some totally different virus or if it is in fact a virus. We know that the World Health Organization (WHO) has had several days to sequence the genes of the disease but has failed to release this data.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;We know that WHO has NOT called for the quarantining of the Ukraine or the shutdown of all global travel to/from the area of infection and that this is the same thing that they did when Mexican Swine Flu (A/H1N1) first broke out and that the failure to contain that virus early on ensured its spread throughout the world.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;We know that the internal temperature of the lungs of those with a terminal case of what many are calling ‘Ukrainian Plague’ is often from 130F to 135F. We do know that autopsies show that the lungs are filled with blood, and are black in color, and that the lung tissue has turned to mush. We know that patients who first show any signs of illness usually crash in less than 48 hours, sometimes the same day.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;  It's not quite true that there has been a blackout on this story though-- it is just that it hasn't gotten a tremendous amount of attention.  Some mainstream articles indicate something unusual is happening in Ukraine, such as &lt;a href="http://www.examiner.com/x-29228-LA-Health-Technology-Examiner%7Ey2009m11d16-Ukraine-flu-death-toll-goes-up--British-labs-test-to-ID-flu-as-H1N1-Spanish-flu-or-something-else" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1227984/British-scientists-testing-Ukrainian-super-flu-killed-189-people.html#ixzz0X4sL5rMY" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.  But articles like &lt;a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/11/16/AR2009111602631.html?hpid=opinionsbox1" target="_blank"&gt;this&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.themoscowtimes.com/news/article/whos-fears-over-ukraines-flu-ease/389501.html" target="_blank"&gt;this&lt;/a&gt; paint a much more sanguine portrait of the Ukrainian situation. My gut feeling is that the Ukraine situation is mostly hype, but that would mean I am agreeing with Anne Applebaum of the WaPo and the WHO, who can't be trusted.  So it's really hard to know what's going on.  It's certainly possible that there have been far more deaths than officially reported, and news of these are being suppressed.  But I tend to doubt that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One thing I know for sure though-- I love Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko's hairstyle!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8009371-5228000851051665805?l=covertoperations.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://covertoperations.blogspot.com/feeds/5228000851051665805/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8009371&amp;postID=5228000851051665805&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8009371/posts/default/5228000851051665805'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8009371/posts/default/5228000851051665805'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://covertoperations.blogspot.com/2009/11/ukraine-pandemic-black-death-or-over.html' title='Ukraine Pandemic: Black Death or Over-Hyped Flu?'/><author><name>spooked</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08266697181345871878</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='11990093039639937979'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8009371.post-1232001698235586138</id><published>2009-11-16T11:13:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2009-11-16T11:17:17.837-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Questions of the Day</title><content type='html'>Even IF nano-thermite is explosive, how could anyone HONESTLY think nano-thermite is powerful enough to COMPLETELY PULVERIZE THE TOWERS INTO DUST?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, exactly how much nano-thermite do thermite proponents believe was loaded into the towers and where was it placed?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If people think thermite was used along with conventional explosives, why exactly was the thermite needed?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8009371-1232001698235586138?l=covertoperations.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://covertoperations.blogspot.com/feeds/1232001698235586138/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8009371&amp;postID=1232001698235586138&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8009371/posts/default/1232001698235586138'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8009371/posts/default/1232001698235586138'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://covertoperations.blogspot.com/2009/11/deep-thought-of-day.html' title='Questions of the Day'/><author><name>spooked</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08266697181345871878</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='11990093039639937979'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8009371.post-5944799324487529621</id><published>2009-11-14T11:25:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2009-11-14T11:29:35.343-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Vomit-Inducing Propaganda Alert</title><content type='html'>&lt;blockquote&gt;For all the trillions of dollars lavished on it, for all the talk about confronting new security threats, for all the exhortations to reinvent government, America’s defense establishment, as John Farmer reminds us in “The Ground Truth,” continued to fight the cold war more than a decade after it had ended. Preoccupied with building a costly missile defense system to counter a spurious menace from Russia and with maintaining “full spectrum dominance” over the rest of the globe, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" &gt;most Bush administration officials blithely ignored the danger emanating from the caves of Afghanistan, where Osama bin Laden and his acolytes plotted against America. &lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/15/books/review/Heilbrunn-t.html" target="_blank"&gt;Confronted by a small group of mostly Saudi nationals armed with box cutters, the central nervous system of the country’s defense agencies went into a state of cataleptic shock.&lt;/a&gt; The only decisive action taken on 9/11 came not from the military, but from the courageous passengers who stormed the cockpit of United Airlines Flight 93, leading the hijackers to crash the plane over Pennsylvania farmland before it could reach its intended target in Washington.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;  Unless, maybe this is a joke, some kind of overly serious sarcasm?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And the article started actually kind of promising: &lt;blockquote&gt;When Sept. 11, 2001, dawned, the Northeast Air Defense Sector in Rome, N.Y., went on full alert — to prepare for a training exercise that envisioned a sneak attack by Russian planes flying over the North Pole to bomb the United States, a prospect that Defense Secretary Robert McNamara had dismissed as outdated in 1966. Later that morning, after American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175 had hit the World Trade Center and American Airlines Flight 77 the Pentagon, three F-16 fighter jets were scrambled from Langley Air Force Base to form a combat air patrol over Washington. But degraded radio transmission quality meant that the pilots were left clueless about the nature of their mission. On seeing the Pentagon in flames, the lead fighter pilot later explained, “I reverted to the Russian threat. . . . I’m thinking cruise missile threat from the sea. You know, you look down and see the Pentagon burning, and I thought the bastards snuck one by us. . . .

&lt;br /&gt;I heard similar stories, though not as dramatic, from my friend who lived on Warren St., near the events, who himself, I understand, developed a unusual blood condition.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The doctors who treat these people refused to make the scientific determination of casuality for the longest time - maybe even til now?

Dave Schultheis (R-Colorado Springs) posted a tweet yesterday that called for a derailing of President Obama's agenda in a rather bold way. The blog Colorado Pols caught the statement from Schultheis's account.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://tpmlivewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/2009/11/colorado-state-senator-lets-roll-against-the-obama-agenda.php?ref=fpb" target="_blank"&gt;"Don't for a second, think Obama wants what is best for U.S. He is flying the U.S. Plane right into the ground at full speed. Let's Roll,"&lt;/a&gt; the tweet reads.&lt;/blockquote&gt;  Considering the flight 93 crash was a hoax, it's far from clear what Schultheis' statement means.
