Adolph, on lies…
"The great masses of the people... will more easily fall victims to a great lie than to a small one." -- Adolph Hitler

This video is funny. A bunch of drag queens cooking on the LSD. It made me laugh.
Cross-Site Scripting Worm Floods MySpace
"One clever MySpace user looking to expand his buddy list recently figured out how to force others to become his friend, and ended up creating the first self-propagating cross-site scripting (XSS) worm. In less than 24 hours, 'Samy' had amassed over 1 million friends on the popular online community. According to BetaNews, the worm's code utilized XMLHTTPRequest - a JavaScript object used in AJAX Web applications and was spreading at a rate of 1,000 users every few seconds before MySpace shut down its site. Thankfully, the script was written for fun and didn't try to take advantage of unpatched security holes in IE to create a massive MySpace botnet."
The American Taliban
Here's a bunch of interesting quotes from what it's author is calling The American Taliban. My favorites:
"I would like to outlaw contraception...contraception is disgusting – people using each other for pleasure." -- "Joseph Scheidler":http://www.prolifeaction.org/about/joe.htm (Pro-Life Action League)
""I want you to just let a wave of intolerance wash over. I want you to let a wave of hatred wash over you. Yes, hate is good...Our goal is a Christian nation. We have a biblical duty, we are called by God to conquer this country. We don't want equal time. We don't want pluralism." -- "Randall Terry":http://www.randallterry.com/home/index.cfm (Operation Rescue)
“George Bush was not elected by a majority of the voters in the United States, he was appointed by God.” -- "Lt. Gen. William G. Boykin":http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/09/15/60II/main643650.shtml
"We are engaged in a social, political, and cultural war. There's a lot of talk in America about pluralism. But the bottom line is somebody's values will prevail. And the winner gets the right to teach our children what to believe."-- "Gary Bauer":http://www.tylwythteg.com/enemies/bauer.html (American Values)
"The Christian community has a golden opportunity to train an army of dedicated teachers who can invade the public school classrooms and use them to influence the nation for Christ."-- "James Kennedy":http://www.reclaimamerica.org/PAGES/djkbio_new.asp (Center for Reclaiming America)

Christian Anti-Gay Brainwashing Camp Goes To Court
The teen that "posted":http://derekgulbranson.com/2005/06/14/the-anti-gay-christian-brainwashing-handbook/ the handbook from the "‘ex-gay’ residential treatment facility", Love in Action, has drawn the attention of the state of Tennessee. The state has determined that Love in Action is operating two “unlicensed mental health supportive living facilities.” The state set a deadline for them to apply for a license or receive a cease and desist order. They replied by "suing the state":http://www.southernstandard.net/news.php?viewStory=21916 saying they shouldn't be required to have a license and the state's requirement is discriminatory.
Bush Wants Right To Use Military Against US Citizens
In the event of an outbreak of a deadly virus in the us Bush wants the right to use the military to enforce the quarantine. From a "press conference":http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2005/10/20051004-1.html today:
"... it's another thing to prevent people from coming in to get exposed to the avian flu. And who best to be able to effect a quarantine? One option is the use of a military that's able to plan and move."
Is that what they do, plan and move things?
Nightvision Goggles Are Cool
Found this "nightvision movie":http://derekgulbranson.com/wp-content/uploads/donkey1_971.avi on Nowthatsfuckedup.com, which seems to be a forum that focuses on pictures and video from US solders in Iraq. Pretty funny. We should put night vision cameras everywhere.
This "movie of guns and blowing stuff up":http://derekgulbranson.com/wp-content/uploads/31grandfinallysmall_855.wmv is kind of interesting too. With emotion in his voice, he starts his movie off with:
"This what people join the Marine Corps to do. You might be in the Marine Corps 20 years and never get this chance again, to take out a full-fledged city full of insurgents."
US Government Faking Terrorism To Justify War
I just ran across this "government memo":http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/news/20010430/northwoods.pdf from 1962 entitled "Justification for US Military Intervention in Cuba." It was a set of recommendations that made its way up the military chain of command until Kennedy squashed it. All of the options recommended involve staging some sort of fake attack by Cuba against some US asset. They mention painting an F16 to look like a Mig, highjacking a plane and filling the passenger manifest completely with fake people then "conduct funeral for 'mock' victims."
Here's some quotes from the memo:
* "We could blow up a US ship in Guantanamo Bay and blame Cuba."
* "We could sink a boatload of Cubans enroute to Florida (real or simulated)."
* "Exploding a few plastic bombs in carefully chosen spots, the arrest of Cuban agents and the release of prepared documents substantiating Cuban involvement would also be helpful in projecting the idea of an irresponsible government."
* "We could develop a Communist Cuban terror campaign..."
I particularly liked either "real or simulated" Cubans work just as well for purposes of being blown up. Wikipedia has some "more info":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Northwoods including links to the full text. I found it on "infowars.com":http://www.infowars.com. The pdf is on the National Security Archives servers.
True these are only "suggestions," but open and honest government was definitely not something its signed author, the Joint Chiefs of Staff "Lyman Louis Lemnitzer":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyman_Lemnitzer, believed in. Deceiving the American people is the only solution he offers. Certainly it shows that faking terrorist events by blowing up remote controlled airliners to create justification for a military intervention is something the US government has considered before.
Bush Implicated in Kennedy Assassination
I remember after I initially watched the movie "JFK":http://imdb.com/title/tt0102138, I was pretty convinced that _they_ killed him but didn't really think we'd ever find out who _they_ were. Well this movie, "Bush Link to Kennedy Assassination":http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4315024059102108031 convinced me that the mastermind was George H.W. Bush, our former president. I know, pretty crazy. My first reaction was to laugh. Sounds ridiculous, almost as ridiculous as the idea that a person would fly a plane full of people into to a building full of people, had you told it to me before 9/11.
It's 90 minutes long, so turn off your TV set for one night and watch it. It's full of secret societies, conspiracy, body stealing, mutilation, even some masturbation and cross-dressing. I'm usually fairly suspect of conspiracy stuff, but this pulled a lot of stuff together and is pretty compelling. I watched it twice.
h2. Watch "this movie":http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4315024059102108031. I'm serious.
