Ridgeââ¬â¢s Threat-level finger, McLaughlinââ¬â¢s sphincter ââ¬â Orange yeeks
ââ¬Åââ¬ÅWe donââ¬â¢t do politics in the Department of Homeland Security,ââ¬Â Secretary Tom Ridge declared yesterday when questioned about the alert.ââ¬Â So quoted the New York Times, ââ¬ÅNew Qaeda Activity Is Said to Have a Role in Warning,ââ¬Â 8.4.04, A11, under the Secretaryââ¬â¢s picture.
As if to say, pardon the cynicism, ââ¬ÅPolitics? Not us. Wrong department. The cell-phone guys already took care of that.ââ¬Â (Ri-n-n-g. ââ¬ÅHello Tom,ââ¬Â ââ¬ÅHello Mother.ââ¬Â ââ¬ÅHomeland Security Secretary Ridge!ââ¬Â ââ¬ÅYes, mother.ââ¬Â ââ¬ÅThere is a little something we need you to do, Tom.ââ¬Â ââ¬ÅYes, mother.ââ¬Â) Nope, no politics here.ââ¬Â
Across the centerfold on the left, under a related article on how the decision was made, one picks up: ââ¬ÅWashington, Aug. 3 ââ¬â Senior White House officials said Tuesday that the decison to raise the threat level was made at a meeting convened at 4 p.m. on Saturday in the White House Situation room. Many of the Bush administrationââ¬â¢s counterterrorism officials, who had scattered for the weekend, had to be plugged in by video teleconference monitors.
ââ¬ÅTo two Senior White House officials in the meeting, it appeared to be a clear-cut case.ââ¬Â
Did ââ¬Åslam-dunkââ¬Â came into anyoneââ¬â¢s mind, I wonder?
ââ¬Åââ¬ÂIââ¬â¢ve never seen so much pointing in the same direction,ââ¬Â one of the senior officials said, referring to the intelligence that prompted the heightened alert. ââ¬ÅYou think this is probably as rich as itââ¬â¢s ever going to get. I can tell you, if you donââ¬â¢t warn now, I donââ¬â¢t know when you would.ââ¬Âââ¬Â
Notice the senior officialââ¬â¢s use of ââ¬Åyouââ¬Â ââ¬â to address you (us, his audience, in that affected Tex-ass way they put on), then immediately swap places, so that ââ¬Åyouââ¬Â are agonizing over Big decisions with him (it).
The public needs to know the name of this official, to correct their self-mirrored terror thermostat. It could be linked directly to C.I.A. (or is that ââ¬ÅCYAââ¬Â) John McLaughlinââ¬â¢s sphincter. This, in turn would palpate to the 9/11 commission report which comes down the pike with one glaring, staring deficit it takes major shock therapy to get by with,. The threat of what happens if that deficit gets shouted aloud by a lot of people jerks JMââ¬â¢s cord, squeezing TRââ¬â¢s finger, and Walla! What more do you need?
Philip Weiss documents the condemning omission in The New York Observer, 8.4.2004, ââ¬Å9/11 Report Misses One Crucial Point: Mideastern Policy.. Richard Ben Cramer says Commission Missed Boat Blowing Off Israel Policy.ââ¬Â What the 9/11 Commission does not deal with, ââ¬Åblows offââ¬Â, the author says, is why Muslims hate us implacably ââ¬â for US Mideast policy totally one-sided toward Jews, vrs. Palestinians. Before quoting and commenting on his argument, notice needs taking of some resistance the ââ¬ÅCYAââ¬Âââ¬â¢s energetic initiative ran into. ââ¬Å(A) few law enforcement and intelligence said that the intelligence, at least that had been known at the time the decision was made, seemed to be dated, gong back to 2000 and 2001. The information was important and worrisome, they said, but it seemed too out of date, too much like previously known intelligence about Quedaââ¬â¢s surveillance methods to be a persuasive indicator of impending attack.ââ¬Â
That means the decision WAS political, a personal judgment call of the analyst McLaughlin and his interim faction running the agency. When asked recently about the C.I.A.ââ¬â¢s so called ââ¬Ådevilââ¬â¢s advocate ruleââ¬Â, to listen to one opposing a proposed dangerous action as vigorously as one defending it, he smirked ââ¬ÅIf we had listed to a devilââ¬â¢s advocate about Saddam Husseinââ¬â¢s weapons of mass destruction before invading Iraq, he would have probably been more sure he had WMDââ¬â¢s than we were at the time.ââ¬Â But that isnââ¬â¢t true. It ignores what Scott Ritter was saying then, and now. This shows him lying in public, about a matter of stateââ¬â¢s evidence if charges of high criminal conduct can be brought against terror hoax perpetrators.
There must be some punishment for that, not minor. The shock of the Orange Threat alert level was massive. A similar event occurred in France recently when an anti-semitic hate crime hoax set off an all-community hate-Muslim campaign. Prime Minister Chirac first led the indignation, then when learning it was self-inflicted by Mme Lillie le Blanc, said she would be punished appropriately. 7 weeks probation, something like that she got. Left the already tattered remnants of civil democratic discourse shredded and poisoned. There is no difference between what she did and what the agency did, if it juiced up a ââ¬Åeverybody duck! Imminent danger!ââ¬Â event they knew was rigged because they rigged it themselves. Hereââ¬â¢s good old Musharaff, cracking down on Islamic militants in Pakistanââ¬â¢s midst, delivering up an Queda cell whiz-kid operative, named Khan, good looker, super-dangerous, probably co$t a bag full of loot. Millions of Uncle Samââ¬â¢s greenback dollahs said to be offered over there for... how many? Is anybody keeping count? Looks like any decent well run agency could torture the truth out of somebody closer to home a lot cheaper. But I forget about out the values of outsourcing stuff.
The faction McLaughlin fronts for would be the same as that blown off by the commission. THIS IS GROUP-THINK SHEILDED BY THE INNER BARRIER OF ââ¬ËANTI-SEMITISMââ¬â¢ AS DEFENSE AGAINST HATRED OF THE JEWS.
This the psychological dynamic connected to the ââ¬Åthird rail of American politicsââ¬Â. From Weiss:

Richard Ben Cramer Says Commission Missed Boat Blowing Off Israel Policy 9/11 Report Misses One Crucial Point: Mideastern Policy by Philip Weiss 000 A month or so back, Bob Kerrey loped in late from a meeting of the 9/11 commission to the New School stage to have a discussion with the author Richard Ben Cramer about his new book, How Israel Lost: The Four Questions. The throaty author offered his keystone for negotiations in the Middle Eastââ¬âââ¬ÅGive back the landââ¬Âââ¬âbut the university president shrugged off the suggestion. No one in the Arab world has ever really cared about the Palestinians, he said, and there are no opportunities for young people in the Arab world anyway, thatââ¬â¢s the problem. The two men talked past one another.
The commission of which Mr. Kerrey is a member has now published its report, and what was supposed to be an act of soul-searching has been ruined by the same blind spot the former Senator showed onstage. The report skirts Americaââ¬â¢s one-sided support for Israel over the Palestinians. It says that the Arabs donââ¬â¢t like us because of their own failed societies and the lack of opportunity for young people.
Once again, the Middle East shows itself to be the third rail of American politics. With the exception of retired leaders like Jimmy Carter and George McGovern and brave writers like Richard Ben Cramer, no one dares to open his mouth about what is obviously the main irritant in our relationship with fundamentalist Islam: We are contemptuous of the Palestiniansââ¬â¢ rights to self-determination.
ââ¬ÅAmericans canââ¬â¢t understand why Arabs donââ¬â¢t think of them as honest and decent purveyors of democracy,ââ¬Â Mr. Cramer said. ââ¬ÅWell, this is why.ââ¬Â The 9/11 commission report contains just a few quiet mentions of the Palestinian issue, as an aside. Yes, American policy in the Middle East is one of the ââ¬Åstaples of popular commentary across the Arab and Muslim world,ââ¬Â but the commission insists on describing that policy as a ââ¬Åchoiceââ¬Â we have made, like the choice to invade Iraq.
ââ¬ÅThose choices must be integrated,ââ¬Â it says, ââ¬Åwith Americaââ¬â¢s message of opportunity to the Arab and Muslim world.ââ¬Â
Thatââ¬â¢s crazy. Thatââ¬â¢s like corporate investors in South Africa back in the 1980ââ¬â¢s saying that the policy of tolerating apartheid should be ââ¬Åintegratedââ¬Â with a message of opportunity for young blacks in America. You canââ¬â¢t integrate such things; they are inherently contradictory. And meanwhile, the destruction of hope in the occupied territories is central to the Arab understanding of how our society behaves.
Ignoring this grievance is dangerous to ourselves. As Mr. Cramerââ¬â¢s book shows through the telling of powerful, simple stories, 37 years of occupation have damaged the soul of Israeli democracy

Final points The frenzied issuing of the nationwide threat began Friday, July 30, release day for the movie The Manchurian Candidate. One assumes, and I have argued elsewhere, the conjunction is not accidental, but calculated to engage memory-loops through the unconscious. The color code ââ¬ÅOrangeââ¬Â is a group trance state token associated with the ââ¬Åshockââ¬Â, whenever they choose to administer it. Under its spell, in the trance state, is implanted new post-hypnotic suggestion ââ¬Åsignalsââ¬Â, to go with ââ¬Åal Zarquwriââ¬Â, ââ¬ÅOsama Bin Laden,ââ¬Â or whoeverââ¬â¢s card turns up. Now people can recognize the enemy ââ¬Åthreatening to penetrate our defenses (barriers, shields).ââ¬Â I think this pre-programming link is extremely important in the propaganda war, to replace individualââ¬â¢s personal memory with group-think sequencing.
A Shock! Implantââ¬Â¦. (sign uses anchored in memory to trauma, later available for recall-use) ââ¬Â¦ sequence of violent intervention in the processes of group communication has been imposed upon us in a fake security alert or ââ¬Ådrill.ââ¬Â In the interests of neocon Zionist pro-Israeli, Jew-related politics.
In Presidential politics, the terror threat also deflated the Democrats expected ââ¬Åbounceââ¬Â, and caused them to trip over themselves to go further than Bush in setting up a new agency ââ¬â same oneââ¬â¢s converting the threat hysteria into ââ¬Åact now to save usââ¬Â hysteria,

"No way out except through jews"...as Alex Linder says...I wonder where Linder got that quote, or is it his own?
