THE CAPITOL HILL BIO-TERROR EVENT EARLY PROJECTIONS:

Militias will be blamed *Anthrax Exposures to Close Capitol Hill*

<Oct. 17   The House of Representatives will be closed for at least five days so that half of the Capitol complex can be swept for the presence of potentially deadly anthrax spores, Speaker Dennis Hastert announced Wednesday. Hastert said the closure was prompted by the discovery of the bacteria in the ventilation system of the Senate and in a Capitol mailroom. The shutdown came after 29 employees at a Senate office building tested positive for exposure to anthrax as a result of a letter containing a very potent form of the bacteria that was sent to Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschles office.>

Sen. Tom Daschle sponsored the USA Act of 2001 in the United States Senate, a bill which gives unconstitutional powers to law enforcement agencies for the purpose of combating terrorism.

The CNN anchorman stated early on there is no known connection between the Capitol Hill bio-terrorism and Osama bin Laden. In a later interview with Greta van Susteren, CNN national correspondent Eileen O'Connor suggested *domestic terrorists* like militia groups and anti-abortionists are likely suspects.

Based on an article published yesterday [10/16] in Great Britain regarding purported threats by the militias to use anthrax against the global conspiracy, we projected that responsibility for the next bio-warfare scare will be placed on one or more of the militia units which are scattered throughout the United States and whose numbers are estimated at 40,000 armed patriots. Why target the militias? The logical next step in reducing the U.S. to a police state is to disarm the U.S. citizenry.

The UK article is clever to falsely associate the militias with Christianity. Whether or not the latest orchestration of bio-warfare related hysteria is blamed on militias, we expect these groups eventually will be charged as bio-terrorist organizations.  The perceived linkage with Christianity will give the burgeoning police state one more pretext to persecute Christians as well.   Another indication that Christians will be framed as bio-terrorists, a CNN reporter mentioned this morning the Planned Parenthood and many abortion clinics have receive threats as well as mail containing anthrax.

To include information on these new developments, a section was added to Mondays Watch Unto Prayer report, New Crimes Defined As Terrorism: http://watch.pair.com/terrorism.html#bio

WHAT NEXT?

What would be the logical next step toward reducing the U.S. to a police state? Ricardo Lopez provides that insight:

"Foreign troops stationed in the U.S. and Mexico and German Luftwaffe (Air Force) jets flying around the American Southwest from Alamogordo, New Mexico will undoubtedly be utilized to smash and round up anti-government militias, menacing street gangs, and patriotic citizens wholl refuse to surrender their national sovereignty." [R. Lopez, 10/16/01-Whats Next?]

The real global terrorists must disarm the U.S. citizenry before a military takeover can occur.  A formidable threat needs to be "perceived" and feared by the masses in order to justify extraordinary measures for law enforcement authorities to deal harshly with the perceived terrorists.   Already rumblings that the next terror event would be of a biological nature are being fulfilled on Capitol Hill.

BIO-PROPAGANDA

Not that the pathological danger of a biological scare must be warranted by scientific data.  One biologist has created a web site to educate the public on the facts about biological warfare which are grossly exaggerated by the mainstream media.  Interestingly, Gary Novak states that no one except the United States and Russia is producing anthrax spores in the powdered form necessary for use as a biological weapon, and even in the event that anthrax is released on a large population, only a few dozen people would contract the disease.

*Dark Cellars of Government*: http://www.nov55.com/drkc.html

    "Propaganda on biological weapons including anthrax originates in the dark cellars of government for the purpose of swaying the public for increased police powers. A terrorist threat is hyped or contrived, while military research on contagious diseases is concealed."

    "Biowarfare is promoted through a combination of ignorance and propaganda. The researchers, who should know better and often do, are getting paid to produce the agents, so they do not want to admit the futility of it. The nonresearchers cannot realistically evaluate the claims, and they have propaganda motives. They want to militarize society, and scare tactics go a long ways in that direction.
    "The point here is not that large countries cannot make a lot of persons miserable with biological weapons. It's that the small countries and terrorists cannot do so on their own; and it cannot be done on a large scale and in some magical way as described in the media.
    "Numerous persons have asked me how I interpret recent events. I think recent events substantiate my statements to the nth degree. Only half a dozen persons have been stricken by anthrax instead of the millions which authorities were predicting upon a terrorist attack. It shows that anthrax is almost impossible to use effectively.
    "The question is who succeeded in converting it to a dry powder. Certainly bin Laden could not have. It must have been some country.
    "The field tests of white powders are not credible. Anthrax powder is gray or brown, not white."

The real warfare against America has been on the psychological level rather than biological.  According to Gerald Cohail of Rense.com, the source of the bio-warfare propaganda is the U.S. Defense Department in partnership with two private enterprises which manufacture anthrax and paranoia respectively:

*Media Rant - '100% Chance of Bio Attack In The US'* http://www.rense.com/general15/mediarant.htm

    Former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Adm. William J. Crowe Jr. was part of the crew that sold Saddam Hussein the deadly means to wage war with anthrax germs...
    Not only is it disturbing that such a means of mass destruction was provided to Saddam Hussein (and who knows how many others) by our own government, it is equally disturbing to consider that retired Admiral William J Crowe Jr. is now in a position to reap profits from the sale of anthrax vaccine to the US Department of Defense. Or, one shudders to think, in a position to perhaps prevent the manufacture of the vaccine.
     Crowe is on the board of directors and owns a 13% share of the Lansing, Michigan-based BioPort Corporation, the only company in the United States licensed to make a vaccine for anthrax. His 13% share ensures he will make a tidy profit from any sale of anthrax vaccine to the government. However, and this is what disturbs me most, BioPort has not produced a single drop of vaccine since they purchased Michigan Biologic Products Institute from the State of Michigan in 1998. In the meantime the Defense Department advanced BioPort $18 million in 1999 and another $24 million in 2000.

    Admiral Crowe is also an advisor to Global Options LLC, 'an international crisis management firm based in Washington'. Their web site (http://www.globalops.com) contains the slogan, 'The Corporate Equalizer'.
    Also on the advisory board for Global Options is former Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, R. James Woolsey.
   The chairman and CEO of Global Options is Neil C. Livingstone, one of the people quoted in a 11 September 2001 article published by the Boston Globe after the attacks on the World Trade Center towers and the Pentagon. He was quoted as saying, 'I think we are at war. I liken this to Pearl Harbor.'

   The President and every talking head at every major media outlet repeated this theme for days after the attacks. Is there a connection? Or, would we all have come to this same conclusion?

NEXT ON THE *MOST WANTED* TERRORIST LIST

A CNN anchorman stated early this morning that there was no known connection between the Capitol Hill bio-terror attack and Osama bin Laden.  Later in the day an interview with Greta van Susteren launched the next propaganda campaign ~ against militias, anti-abortionists, and other domestic *terrorist groups*:

CNN THE POINT WITH GRETA VAN SUSTEREN [selected excerpt]

http://www.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0110/16/tpt.00.html

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.
ANNOUNCER: THE POINT: *Tracking the Terrorists, The World's Most Wanted.*

ANNOUNCER: Where did it come from? And who is responsible?

ANNOUNCER: Tonight, the anthrax terror that has a nation on edge. And what has history taught us? Could the cause of the anthrax scare be domestic?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: There are a lot of people who still don't like the United States, and some of them are right here within this country.

ANNOUNCER: How a national scare evolved.

THE POINT: *Tracking The Terrorists: The World's Most Wanted.*

Now from Washington, Greta Van Susteren.

GRETA VAN SUSTEREN, HOST: Now we know what to watch for. I took a good, long look and you will probably want to, as well. Authorities today made public the similar envelopes, which contained anthrax, received on Capitol Hill and at NBC News in New York. CNN national correspondent Eileen O'Connor has more on the envelopes, plus today's latest developments in the anthrax story.

VAN SUSTEREN: You know, the -- there's -- you've said in your piece that there's no -- that they're not focused on a particular group, that nobody has been ruled out. Who is in the university of possibilities according to these investigators?

O'CONNOR: Well, there's a lot of international terrorist groups, but there's a lot of domestic terrorist groups.

VAN SUSTEREN: Like?

O'CONNOR: Like, for instance, white supremacist group, anti- abortion rights groups. There's also left wing groups. There could be people who are militia groups and others. There also could be just a person out there perhaps deranged who has a particular ax to grind, a person like the convicted Unabomber, Ted Kaczynski.

Finally, the day before, October 16, the British press published an article suggesting that a future bio-terrror event could reasonably be blamed on the militias, which is under investigation by the FBI.  The article in the UK Herald ominously portends that U.S. militias will be next on the most wanted list of terrorists.  Christians also received dishonorable mention in the article which, notably, was written by a descendant of the Merovingian *Bruce* lineage.  The profile of the militia movement presented in the very loaded UK article is that of neo-Nazi Aryan race bigots. And doubt is cast upon the constitutionality of the right to bear arms, as if the jury is still out on the 225 year old Constitution:

Backwoods militias suspected of being behind biowar threat

http://www.theherald.co.uk/news/archive/16-10-19101-1-7-46.html    

THE FBI's domestic terrorism unit is investigating the possible role of illegal militia groups in the spate of anthrax outbreaks in Florida and New York.
    Timothy McVeigh, the Oklahoma bomber who killed 168 people when he blew up a federal building in 1995, was a supporter of one such group, the National Alliance.
    Others have threatened to use biological weapons, including anthrax, botulism, and ricin, in their struggle against what they see as a global conspiracy between the US administration and the United Nations to disarm and enslave them. Every state has its own *patriot* group of disaffected right-wing Christian radicals opposed to central government and federal regulations. Most are organised along paramilitary lines...

    They range in outlook from Pat Robertson, a failed 1988 presidential candidate, with his vision of a *Christian America* to the sinister Posse Comitatus, Aryan Nations and Minnesota Patriots' Council, who favour armed insurrection.
    All have links with the National Rifle Association, the influential lobby group which represents weapons' manufacturers, hunters and gun clubs and campaigns for the right of all Americans "to own and bear arms".
    There is some doubt as to whether this right is enshrined legally in the American constitution but the NRA has powerful supporters in both senate and congress and no-one has yet managed successfully to challenge the all-pervasive nationwide gun culture.
    Most of the militias' philosophy is based on white-supremacist principles, looking down on blacks as *mud people* and Jews as instigators of the global plot against them and manipulators of the world economy for their own benefit."

Have you noticed how the British seem to be running the show from across the Atlantic?  When the U.S. was asked to produce evidence against Osama bin Laden, Tony Blair responded to the world!  Then New York mayor, Rudy Giuliani, was knighted by the Queen of England, an honor reserved for British subjects alone.  Is the United States a British colony?  In fact, British Freemasonry is now enfolding the nations of the world in the vision of Cecil Rhodes -- the federation, expansion and consolidation of the British Empire.
