The context is simple.
The British SAW the face of evil up close, with bombs raining down on their heads each evening from across the river.
They know what a population lulled into complacency, lied to with propaganda, and then bludgeoned with force LOOKS like. They have known "good Germans."
They forgave us for the Revolutionary War, but they thanked us for our aid in WWII, but they may not forgive us for sitting back as our monkey king drives the world into the toilet.
It is time to question authority and the dominant paradigm at every corner.
Charlie L
P.S. I don't even for a moment doubt that the sudden arrest in the Ramsey case was more than mere "coincidence" but was another carefully played out part of the script, designed to dilute the available MSM band, thereby leaving less bandwidth for more negative news (war in Iraq, NK testing bombs, war in Beirut, lower housing starts, less job starts, more bankruptcy filings, etc. etc. etc.) before the all-important mid-term elections, the results of which have already been writ.
"The counting is done, now all that is left is for the ballots to be cast."

Your Ramsey interpretation is interesting and more than likely right-on!

Yes, ot, we're OT, what did you think of Winter's appearance this afternoon... or evening... as the case may be?
I absolutely LOVED it. I hope BB2 got to hear it on his ride home from work... but I guess we'll get another shot at it when the archives are up and we can get a link to listen again.

I'll prolly never get to hear WP's oh-so-young voice. That HughsNet satellite dish is starting to look REALLY appealing (if expensive).
Tell me about the show, guys. I'm feeling very bitter.

It was mostly as reported here, Peg, but he threw in some SERIOUSLY interesting information about the basis for the term "Al Qaeda" that you just absolutely have to hear, even if the download has your phone tied up for a couple hours. His segment was under a half hour, and I bet someone will make a small file of the pertinent part, so it shouldn't be THAT hard to download. If worse comes to worst, I will try to do a transcript for you. HE ROCKED!!!!!
I think we need him for our time machine project, too.

You mean that "al-Quaeda" means "the base," or the database, and was first employed when these Muslims were being amassed and coordinated by the CIA in Afghanistan, to fight the USSR? Is that the info you mean?
I've been onto that one for many moons!
And yes, WP would be a marvelous addition to our research project. You know, when we get hot-under-the-collar about things, get steamed and lose our judgement, a cooler head should prevail...

Al Qaeda also means "toilet"!!!!!! He put the whole thing together in a really grand way. Yes, that's the info I mean, but he seriously nailed it on the air, and I think the world is going to be a better place for it. Cool heads, warm feet... will best the killer elite.

I linked to this elsewhere, but I'll do so again here, since mukluks have been allowed. If the contents of this essay by Mike Ruppert, By the Light of the Burning Bridge, don't freeze you, nothing will. Sorry, but it's a must read.

Yes, 99, I'd heard that one too. But I'd LOVE to hear WP tell it. So I'll wait for his segment to be archived. (Besides, don't tell him, but I want to hear his own true voice.)

Boy, I guess I got that started! LOL
And to think that I gave up my first pair of mukluks to Agent 86 at Yosemite.
Well it turns out the Peter B Collins show isn't on live here - it replays at 10:00 PM. So I sat around work for an extra hour to get stuck in traffic listening to Christine Craft. Well that lasted about 15 minutes until I couldn't take her anymore so I switched to a Greatful Dead CD.

WP --- Couldn't get it on the radio, so I listened to it streaming. The buffering wasn't bad this time.
Good job. I hope some listeners will check out BradBlog and your fine analyses of the latest scare outrage.

Good broadcast segment,.. very good.
The Brits found the bomb making materials in the woods ?
Who was it exactly that was going to bomb these aircraft,.. Bambi,.. and a bunch of leprechauns,.. elves,.. and gnomes ?
It is all a fish story,.. bu$$hco needed to hijack and co-opt MSM attention so they could bury/divert any public attention from the illegal wiretap court ruling
with a breathless terror alert story. When bad news is coming about the bu$$h administration,.. KKKarl Rove points his finger elsewhere and the MSM videographers
head off in the opposite direction of the real news,.. so we we really never find out the truth. It is an elaborate DIVERSIONARY TACTIC which elicits badly needed DAMAGE CONTROL.
Ask Tom Ridge,.. his Terror Alert Chart changed colors faster and more often than a standard traffic light at your local urban intersection. These fascists are playing politics with terrorism,.. it is just that simple,.. but the sheep-ople buy it hook,.. line,.. and sinker. This is what keeps Bush's hind quarters on the throne.

Old Fart ? I think I just got a clue.
His voice sounds and projects a demeanor of 25 to 30 years old.
============
But,.. now for the clue,..
015yrs. - a precocious/inquisitive young man
+40yrs. - hint frm Peter Collins (4 decades of research)
-----------
055yrs. - Grand total = (Frigid ?)-Semi-Old-Fart
====================
A-99 that itunes player when not in use,.. be sure to keep it in the refrigerator freeze,.. you know how WP likes it less temperate but more on the chilly side,.. you don't want him to thaw out and melt into a puddle.

Hi, gang. Thanks for the kind words. I can help you with the math. Suppose I started reading history in utero. I could theoretically have 40 years of work behind me and still be only 39!
But that's not it; I was just kidding. What actually happened was: they asked me to write a short bio and I figured in order to grab a little extra gravitas I should exaggerate my background a bit. In fact I haven't been reading history for "more than four decades". It's actually "more than four days"! I'm seven, gonna be starting third grade next month.
Peg: which "code words" don't you get?

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! oldturk... it just so happens that Winter Patriot is the spirit of Thomas Paine, being channelled by a very talented Eskimo. So! He's an old fart with a young voice. And, hugging redwoods is not for sissies, nosirreebob! Takes spit and moxie and I know plenty of monolithic lunks who drop to their knees and cry when they get near the ancient ones. So. Have some reverence sir!

So Mike tells us FTW was infiltrated again. Some of you may remember my post a year or so back about that.
I was warning BB, BBV, and others that there would be a massive government effort to infiltrate and destroy blogs that exposed the republican dictatorship.
Like I have said before, it is not if blogs will be infiltrated from within or not, it is when, and the crucial factor is for blogs to have analytical ability to know when that infiltration has occurred.
The technique used against Mike is common. So when you see blogs turning against old timers you know they process is in action. The only change after that is the degree to which it is being done.
I knew Mike was ok when after loosing his soul mate, his parents, his career, and his country (because he realized "his country" was not what he had imagined ... but that it had been stolen), he tried to reveal it to others and make it better. He never tired of that. He was first in a lot of things.
Lets change the country to the American Democracy envisioned in our Constitution and jail the bastards.

Very good WP, weren't you nervous?, I even heard a Reich winger on C-Span trying to get across (had the plug pulled on him)that the Pentagon (Rumsfelds death Star) and the CIA are out of control, trying to (already have) take over our Government...That would be about the only thing him and I would see eye to eye on but more believable than ever after 9-11, that includes our voting system too with the Mossad as accomplices

Peg C thanks for the link to the FTW story. I maybe read one of his pieces before, so it is all new to me except it all reminds me of the late 60s and early 70s. A repeat of historical paranoia with a ton of basis in fact. Best wishes to all the regulars here. I keep trying to spread the message to friends and family. My electronic blue vote gets lost in the red Alabama sea.

Dredd #34, DaveM #36 -
My treasured line in that essay, because it mirrors what I keep preaching (ad nauseum, perhaps) is the following, from the very end of the piece:
"In many lectures I have uttered another one of my trademarked lines: The human race is now being presented by a dispassionate universe with one test; either evolve or perish. I, for one, have chosen to evolve."
Let's join him!

Why can't Peter B. get a job on Air America? He's been around doing a great job for a long time now! I haven't ever listened to Jerry Springer's show because I absolutely hate his TV show, but that would be a good spot!

Larry,
I understand your prejudging of Springer's show because his TV show is atrocious and obscene. However, I have to admit that as a progressive radio host he is actually quite good and fairly knowledgable (not Thom Hartmann knowledgable) about some issues. I don't know that it makes up for the sins of his TV broadcast, so your assessment of who to pull for Peter may be the right one.

Soul Rebel:
I wish Whiterosesociety.org had Thom Hartmann archives, he is definitely smart about history and how it fits in to today's mess.
You could fill many radio stations with great hosts who don't lie.
