A Tortured Future?
You can't hide from justice forever - not even for war crimes committed decades in the past, and not even when you're 93.
That message resounded loudly in May, 2013 as Germany announced the arrest of Hans Lipschis, age 93, for complicity in mass murders that took place at the notorious Nazi death camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau, where he served as a guard in 1941-1945. And over 50 years later these war criminals are still being dug out of their spider holes by tenacious seekers of justice ....torture is never forgettable.
Klaus Barbie, the Butcher of Lyon, so named for personally having horribly tortured French prisoners as the local chief of the Gestapo in Lyon. He was hunted down and caught by Nazi Hunters from France. He died in 1991 during his life imprisonment in a Lyon prison since 1987.
Dr. Joseph Mengele, the Angel of Death, who tortured men, women and children and did medical experiments of unspeakable horror to them. He was sought by Nazi Hunters of the Israeli Mossad and was still on the run until his drowning death in Brazil in 1979.
Adolf Eichmann, Organizer of much of the holocaust and the extermination camps was caught by the Mossad in Argentina and put on trial in Israel. Found guilty of War Crimes, he was hanged in 1962.
Rudolph Hess, who spent the last 20 years of his life as the lone inmate of ancient Spandau Prison in Berlin.
The list of the 'most wanted' war criminals continues, the top 6, designated by the Simon Wiesenthal Center shows every one of them to be 93 or older! The relentless search for the guilty in these grotesque instances of death and torture never ends. Even 64 years after that war there are those who are still resolute in their direction. Many others on the Wiesenthal lists are known but are deemed suffering dementia or near death and so cannot be put on trial. But the gathering of evidence doesn't stop. And torture is never forgiven.
In the latest go around in the CIA torture revelations, the only person who has been prosecuted so far is the whistleblower who told us about it. No American soldier who hung a detainee by shackles in a cold dark room, or kept one naked and awake for days with pain and loud music, or beat one or put the dogs on him, or raped him or force-fed him through the rectum, has been prosecuted. And we are aware that the orders for this extraordinary rendition came from very high up, even Dick Cheney saying he would do it again, which implies he did it in the first instance. And Dick is now at odds with Dubya, his president, saying he also knew. And we now know the CIA has secret prisons all around the world for the express process of torture.
But the above mentioned Nazis and hundreds of others from WWII considered themselves soldiers too. And they were found out. The only thing constant is change, and someone will tell on you.
One only wonders who will apply the pressure to bring present day war criminals accused of torture and death to justice? Will they be allowed to fade into history or to blatantly defend their actions vociferously until we stop talking about them? Offense being the best defense? The strategy of the guilty to deaden the people's senses with sensory overload? It seems that many of those Nazi war criminals feared for their lives up until death. Why should today's counterparts be granted any measure of mercy?
So the resolve of men and women to chase down and catch modern day torturers should never fade into a silent dementia. No matter how aged the perpetrators become. These injustices to humanity must never disappear from our consciousness. Even if the rationale is that they did it to us.
We are supposed to be better than them.
And most secret agency spy chiefs today in all countries agree and understand that torture does NOT work. It is not a strategic necessity. Which only leaves the raison d'etre for using torture, as that certain people within those agencies find a distorted pleasure in the power to maim. As those Nazis mentioned above have proven. Absolute power corrupts.
Sane and honorable men need to keep up the pressure, the pursuit, dig them out, accumulate the facts and prosecute them, even if it takes another 64 years. Let it be known, they can't hide from justice forever.
Even if they try to hide in plain sight.
Torture 1940s same as 2000s?

Buying a new TV?
Read this before you consider buying a new 'smart' TV.
You may be afraid to even plug it in and decide to be happy with hand shadow puppets. Or maybe retrieve your old tube TV from that landfill, warm it up and watch I love Lucy from a more simple time of television history. Today is just too scary!
So read this - - - Jim Marrs.com news
Your TV is watching you, listening to you, and reporting on you. Dirty little flat-faced bastard!
Shhh. East Berlin was never like this!
Even Tony Soprano's basement isn't secure.

Feinstein's double standard
There has been a six year, 40 million dollar Senate Intelligence Committee investigation into the practices of the CIA. Completed in 2012, it was to study and/or expose the use of torture tactics banned by the current White House administration when President Obama took office.
It is suspected that some within the spy agency ignored the ruling and simply continued right on with what might be known as 'extra-ordinary rendition' at secret prisons around the world known as Black Sites. Hidden from the peeking eyes of potential Washington whistle-blowers. And perhaps American laws. This would include the use of torture, water-boarding, sleep deprivation, stress positions and other enhanced interrogation procedures. It is not known if the recipients of these secret attentions were all foreigners or even American citizens.
Dianne Feinstein, although masquerading as a Democrat, has been a staunch supporter of just about
anything the Republicans and any spy agency wanted, including everything George Bush and his henchman Dick Cheney wanted to do during their reign, in the interest of keeping terrorism away from the borders of the USA. She is the chair of the Select Committee on Intelligence.
The classified report, has about 15% of names and places redacted and runs to 6300 pages. The CIA is fighting its release saying that some officials of the CIA could be identified by foreign enemies even though pseudonyms are used.
They are even prepared to release a counter-argument. The agency is also worried that the report would show that certain officials repeatedly broke the law over time.
The full report will remain secret and only a 480 page redacted summery will be revealed.
(Could that be something like the Warren Report summary on the Kennedy assassination which had no relation to the actual facts contained in the long document whatsoever?)
The investigation searched over a million pages of CIA records but no CIA official was interviewed and no one has been charged. And the spy agency raised security concerns that the identity of certain CIA officers, some currently serving abroad could be revealed in the study.
(There was no mention of the outing purposely of undercover CIA agent Valery Plame in a vengeful attack on her husband for defying the Bush White House)
All seemed fine with Feinstein until it was learned that the CIA had searched the computers used by the Committee investigators which she suddenly saw as illegal! The CIA had effectively spied on a Congressional committee and she furiously denounced the CIA on the Senate floor!
So Dianne Feinstein was okay with spying on anyone and everybody, including the total population of North America when it applied to the non-elite, the unwashed, but is now furious that the CIA might have spied on HER too!
What goes around comes around was never more true.

Questions, always questions
So Seal Team Six were the ones who raided the bin Laden compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan on May 2nd, 2011. Common knowledge now.
It was a carefully programmed successful effort to kill the man they deemed to be the terrorist leader of al Qaeda.
But now there are conflicting stories emerging about what actually happened. From Peter Bergen of CNN, a very reliable source and others jumping in now. But questions still appear.
One of the Seal Team Six members who arrived in the third floor bedroom and wrote a book on it (No Easy Day) says bin Laden was standing up and he shot him twice in the forehead.
A second man says (Esquire interview) bin Laden was lying wounded on the floor because he had been shot by someone outside through a window and he finished him off with two shots. A third seems to sort of agree with one. One said bin Laden was shot when he poked his head out the door as they stormed the building.
There apparently was an instruction NOT to shoot bin Laden in the face because the CIA would need to analyze good pictures of bin Laden for its facial recognition experts to work effectively. And it was a CIA led operation.
That seems to imply that photographs were planned as part of the operation, yet none have surfaced.
Of course it was a lot easier to simply kill him right away, but would he have been a threat to 3 intensely trained and dangerous Navy Seals? We don't know if capture alive was an option for the team, but even wounded, wouldn't the CIA want the greatest intelligence prize ever in their grasp? Living breathing and talking? Would it have been a soldier's decision to finish him off? And as there were 23 Seal Team members ready to disappear back into the night skies via their helicopters to make their escape, why wouldn't they have just toted off bin Laden alive, to do what they wanted with him afterward? They evidently took his remains with them to be dropped into the sea.
So while the Navy argues fore and aft about what exactly the three Seals were doing in that room. It would be totally easy to prove one or the other with a picture taken during the event. And now the building has been demolished since, so even blood remains on the floor cannot be analyzed for DNA. And no one says they saw any evidence of a dialysis machine. Bin Laden would have needed three times a week treatment.
One Seal says he shot him because he saw a weapon near. And another says the guns were discovered after a later search?
And one wonders, if bin Laden's bodyguards were involved in an intense firefight as the Team was entering the compound, why hadn't this savvy, internationally hunted terrorist not armed himself with one of those guns?
And then there is the old conspiracy theory that President Clinton got bin Laden long ago when he was thought to be hiding in caves in Tora Bora and they sent in a ton of cruise missiles and basically closed them all. And the succeeding theory that a photo-double had been used ever since. In order to keep the bogey man alive as a constantly ominous threat to America.
The old days of the truth will out are over. Too much fog to see clearly.
No information regarding evidence, such as DNA results or physical evidence etc, has been released to news organizations or the public, even through FOIA (Freedom Of Information Act) requests.
And all records of the raid have since been transferred to a CIA 'black hole' immune from FOIA requests as 'operational files'. And even the Department of Defense has purged all it's records relating to the raid. Why?
Questions, always questions.
Of course this small query is in no way intended to denigrate the courage of the Seal Team Six men who put their lives on the line as they undertook a dangerous mission. Their bravery is a given.

Excerpt : Islam in layman's terms
ISLAM IN LAYMANS'
TERMS
Here is a perspective by Dr Peter Hammond.
Dr Hammond's doctorate is in Theology. He was born in Cape Town in 1960, grew up in Rhodesia and converted to Christianity in 1977. Adapted from his book: Slavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat:
Islam is not a religion, nor is it a cult. In its fullest form, it is a complete, total, 100% system of life.
Islam has religious, legal, political, economic, social, and military components. The religious component is a beard for all of the other components. Islamization begins when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their religious privileges. When politically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim demands for their religious privileges, some of the other components tend to creep in as well.
Here's how it works:
As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will be for the most part be regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens. This is the case in:
> United States -- Muslim 0..6%
> Australia -- Muslim 1.5%
> Canada -- Muslim 1.9%
> China -- Muslim 1.8%
> Italy -- Muslim 1.5%
> Norway -- Muslim 1.8%
At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs. This is happening in:
> Denmark -- Muslim 2%
> Germany -- Muslim 3.7%
> United Kingdom -- Muslim 2.7%
> Spain -- Muslim 4%
> Thailand -- Muslim 4.6%
From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves - along with threats for failure to comply. This is occurring in:
> France -- Muslim 8%
> Philippines -- 5%
> Sweden -- Muslim 5%
> Switzerland -- Muslim 4.3%
> The Netherlands -- Muslim 5.5%
> Trinidad & Tobago -- Muslim 5.8%
At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world. When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions. In Paris, we are already seeing car-burnings. Any non Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam , with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam. Such tensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim sections, in:
> Guyana -- Muslim 10%
> India -- Muslim 13.4%
> Israel -- Muslim 16%
> Kenya -- Muslim 10%
> Russia -- Muslim 15%
After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues, such as in:
> Ethiopia -- Muslim 32.8%
At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:
> Bosnia -- Muslim 40%
> Chad -- Muslim 53.1%
> Lebanon -- Muslim 59.7%
> From 60%, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels, such as in:
> Albania -- Muslim 70%
> Malaysia -- Muslim 60.4%
> Qatar -- Muslim 77.5%
> Sudan -- Muslim 70%
After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has been experienced and in some ways is on-going in:
> Bangladesh -- Muslim 83%
> Egypt -- Muslim 90%
> Gaza -- Muslim 98.7%
> Indonesia -- Muslim 86.1%
> Iran -- Muslim 98%
> Iraq -- Muslim 97%
> Jordan -- Muslim 92%
> Morocco -- Muslim 98.7%
> Pakistan -- Muslim 97%
> Palestine -- Muslim 99%
> Syria -- Muslim 90%
> Tajikistan -- Muslim 90%
> Turkey -- Muslim 99..8%
> United Arab Emirates -- Muslim 96%
100% will usher in the peace of "Dar-es-Salaam" - the Islamic House of Peace.. Here there"s supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrasses are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word, such as in:
> Afghanistan -- Muslim 100%
> Saudi Arabia -- Muslim 100%
> Somalia -- Muslim 100%
> Yemen -- Muslim 100%
Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, as in these 100% states the most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and satisfy their blood lust by killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of reasons.
"Before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; the tribe against the world, and all of us against the infidel." - Leon Uris, The Haj
It is important to understand that in some countries, with well under 100% Muslim populations, such as France, the minority Muslim populations live in ghettos, within which they are 100% Muslim, and within which they live by Sharia Law. The national police do not even enter these ghettos. There are no national courts, nor schools, nor non-Muslim religious facilities. In such situations, Muslims do not integrate into the community at large. The children attend madrasses. They learn only the Koran. To even associate with an infidel is a crime punishable with death. Therefore, in some areas of certain nations, Muslim Imams and extremists exercise more power than the national average would indicate.
Today's 1.5 billion Muslims make up 22% of the world's population. But their birth rates dwarf the birth rates of Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, and all other believers. Muslims will exceed 50% of the world's population by the end of this century.
Adapted from Dr Peter Hammond"s book:
Slavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat
Iran recently killed a woman because she had shot her rapist. It is not known what happened to the assailant. Six men raped another and she was stoned to death. Egypt recently sent eight men to jail for three years for appearing in a video of a same sex marriage. Kidnappings of women to be sold into sex slavery are common, and genocide, massacres and beheadings are becoming the norm in places like IS held territories in Syria and Iraq.
Would anyone be correct to expect a new religious world war to explode soon, (if it hasn't already) Islam against everyone else on the planet? The USA cannot be blamed for the extent which Jihadist Islam has expanded, but may be possibly called upon to end it. With perhaps a few tactical nuclear weapons being used to settle it where it festers most?
Who knows.

Dr. Peter Hammond;
The official government of Sudan, Ministry of Foreign Affairs website includes an article that declares that missionary Peter "Hammond should expect to be bombed when he comes to Sudan ... he should expect to be shot on sight"!
Dr. Peter Hammond is a missionary who has pioneered evangelistic outreaches in the war zones of Mozambique, Angola and Sudan. Often travelling by off road motorbike, Peter has travelled hundreds of thousands of miles to deliver Bibles to persecuted Christians in Africa and Eastern Europe. In the course of his missionary activities Peter has been ambushed, come under aerial and artillery bombardments, been stabbed, shot at, beaten by mobs, arrested and imprisoned. On some mission trips he has flown far behind enemy lines to the beleaguered Nuba Mountains in Central Sudan with tonnes of Bibles, books and relief aid.

Ebola - Are You Afraid?
There might be good reason to be scared out of your wits if you live in the USA!
With the death from ebola of Thomas Eric Duncan the world is very much suspicious and afraid. What we have seen so far is a cover your ass mentality stemming from the observations on TV of what has actually been happening.
The first person entering the US from Liberia with the deadly disease was Doctor Kent Brantly who has since been discharged and said to be cured. He was able to have access to an experimental drug. It is now run out and was not available to Duncan.
Over a period of days we learned Duncan had presented himself to hospital and was sent home. Then was rushed back by ambulance a few days later which we are all familiar with from the expanding coverage of TV, namely CNN.
This is what I saw and heard. I saw one man with a hazmat suit on, being washed down after working in the Texas hospital. He was standing on a plastic sheet while another man without any protective gear at all washed him down bare handed!
Then we heard that Duncan's bedding was still in his apartment For days, with a woman and child there. When they finally acted to remove the soiled bedsheets from the apartment, people next door, including children nearby, watched them come and go with the sealed toxic bags. And the hospital where Duncan was isolated had his contaminated bed stuff piled high in an ante room.
The head of the CDC, Dr. Tom Frieden, told us that we had no worries. Ebola was not going to become epidemic in North America.
Then Nina Pham who helped treat Duncan came down with it. A second nurse, Amber Vinson, flew on airliners forth and back while the talking heads continued to tell us we had no worries.
Then Nurse Pham was transported cross country to another hospital in Maryland. They evidently had the ability to quarantine her better than Texas Presbyterian. And while she was going to board a plane out of Texas, surrounded by doctors and nurses in white protective gear, she wearing a yellow suit herself, a man in only shirt and slacks hovered nearby, and not a one of the protectors told him to keep a distance! All seen on TV!
Meanwhile some politicians called for the suspension of commercial air flights in and out of Liberia and the other affected countries in West Africa. They were criticized for going public with their concerns. Was Wall Street afraid people would stop flying? Stocks values would decline? Again the talking heads, the people who seemed to be knowledgeable and in charge, continued to say it would do no good to quarantine a whole region.
But Senegal closed it's own borders and has no one stricken with ebola. Cases also emerged in Spain and Germany where another man died. No one in health care was given any special training on what do to about ebola. Or even how to put on and secure the hazmat suits.
Respected doctors on CNN still told us we had no worries.
Others said they had so few facilities to treat ebola patients that it could be impossible to contain if it spread much further. One said there could be as few as 20 isolation beds available throughout the country! Some politicians said America needed to close its borders with Canada and Mexico, even while planes arrived via Britain or Belgium with more passengers from the West African region. (same thing they said about 9/11 after the terrorists flew into America on legal Visas!) And the health care spokespeople struggled to avert a panic situation while the MSM feasted.
A recent poll suggested that the level of trust of the ones in charge of the scary epidemic was plummeting. No wonder.
But we know why.
If you look at the 5000 Health Care facilities in America, hospitals are literally ALL 'for profit' operations. We hear that most of them have no preparation protocol, no training for nurses, nor equipment to handle serious contagions or ebola patients. And we do know why, don't we? It would all cost money!The bottom line trumps the American public's safety even though 70% of ebola patients die.
Is that why the airlines continue to fly in and out of West Africa? Bottom line? There is not an airline in North America that is equipped to handle a coughing, puking, feverish patient from Africa. Every other passenger would be at extreme risk.
And now a Carnival Cruise ship has someone on board who also worked at the Texas hospital and could have contact with Duncan! When this came to light the ship tried to put in to Belize but was turned away. Mexico also refused docking and the cruise ship is heading back to Texas with about 4000 holidayers on board and one quarantined passenger, but Carnival is being quiet about where the person is being held. Will that be 4000 more people who need specific monitoring?
Some of those first 76 health care responders from Texas Presbyterian have been told not to fly, ride a bus or even shop at a mall! Is this crisis expanding exponentially?
Amber Vinson went shopping and now they are looking for others from that same store. Frontier Airlines are seeking passengers on seven flights including people who flew AFTER Vinson was aboard. They have cleaned the plane several times and have taken it out of service.
At least the police took their duties seriously, creating a huge convoy of vehicles to escort the ebola patient Nina Pham from the airport with virtually no chance of anything preventing the ambulance from getting to the National Institutes of Health Hospital in Bethesda, Maryland. One of only four biocontainment hospitals in the nation. Good for them!
Why isn't someone acting with stronger proposals to curb the growing frantic scare? Why? There is a major political election due in short weeks. No candidate wants to alienate contributors to their campaign funds. And we know that no Republican candidate will dare interfere with the running of a private facility or criticize the unpreparedness of hospital governors!
And here is a big one - The CDC does not have any authority to force it's recommendations or suggestions on any hospital! CDC rules are only guidelines. And do we think that private, for profit hospitals will spend the small fortunes necessary to implement procedures and protocols to protect the public? The bottom line again rules the operation of a modern hospital in America! And to make matters worse, the CDC saw its discretionary funding cut by $585 million from 2010 to 2014 and the National Institutes of Health has faced $446 million in cuts during the same period. And we know there is probably more money working against Obama-care than is actually used in running the program!
So how does any private institution handle cost savings? Not by starting at the top with administrators salaries, but with the lowest paid cleaning staff, by making do with older equipment, and buying lower grade materials, We have all seen that before. Some of the nurses were taping up tears in their uniforms with regular tape! The procedures at Texas Presbyterian have been criticized by other health care professionals. But what hospital could anticipate the arrival of a Thomas Duncan?
So what next? President Obama has appointed a former Chief of Staff to Joe Biden as the Ebola Czar. Ron Klain will report to Homeland Security and Susan Rice. And no doubt he will gather a cadre around him of sycophants, to help perpetuate the job, but he will have no authority to enforce rules or regulations for private for profit hospitals! Klain has no history at all with medicine, he is a lawyer and a 'political operative'. Didn't they have a drug czar once who gave up in disgust? The fact that Klain is a lawyer may be okay, the fact that he was a lobbyist for Fannie Mae may not. Is his job just one more political appointment? An attempt to shepherd actions through this dilemma so as not to damage those in power?
Do you get the feeling that President Obama is not really in charge of anything? But just doing what someone is directing him to do?
Are you scared yet? It is a closed circle and the American public is excluded.
Even the WHO, the World Health Organization is admitting to failures, saying that their own response to Africa was marred by incompetency and ineffective bureaucracy!
Isn't that what we are all seeing daily on the news? Incompetency and a stumbling bureaucracy?
People covering their asses who really have no idea what they are doing? How does this happen within agencies of the government that are supposedly there to serve the interests of the people?
Doctors ................................... Officials |
But when the crunch comes, we get exactly what is happening right now, the complete breakdown of a fallacious health system.
And those in control are the same people who built this mess and keep asking you to vote for them. Again.
Ebola has never spread to this many countries before, and millions of people are seeing why the epidemic is becoming pandemic! Yet Americans usually rise to the occasion and someone emerges out of the mess to set the course to a solution. Cross your fingers but don't touch anything with them.
Are we afraid yet?
No?
Well I have not even touched on the idea that certain people feel that this disease might have become weaponized.
Hazmat suits come in various colors and with a little tuck at the waist they could become fashionable.
We hope not.

Conspiracy theory ... 1 - General George S. Patton
We are aware of General Patton’s accomplishments during World War II. But there are niggling factors after the war in 1945 which are also interesting;
Patton was not about to slow down or shut up after his military successes in Europe. No one knew quite what to do with him. He was a true hawk. One congressman even proposed that he be made Secretary of War, but Patton's lack of diplomacy guaranteed the suggestion was never taken seriously.
In Germany, while on occupation duty after a visit to the States during which he was welcomed with parades as a conquering hero, Patton's outspokenness got him into trouble yet again when he tried justifying the use of ex-Nazis in important administrative positions during the occupation of Bavaria. (In Sun Tzu's ancient treatise, The Art of War, he proposes, 'The captured soldiers should be kindly treated and kept. This is called, using the conquered foe to augment one's own strength. Of course General Patton read it.)
Patton had also been willing to make known his view that the United States and Britain should re-arm the Germans and fight the Russians. He had great respect for German soldiers. Patton knew, along with many others, who the real enemy was going to be. And he was credited with saying, “We ought to keep going.”
Other comments that set alertness and esoteric interest among his enemies were that he had expressed his views to reporters that U.S. plans for post-war Germany were "foolish and stupid" and would lead to Soviet attempts to take over Western Europe. "I was intentionally direct because I believed that it was time for the people to know what was going on," he recalled before his death. Those enemies might not have all been Russians.
These comments and beliefs however, showed that Patton's temperament was somewhat of a liability in peacetime. In many ways, it would have been fitting for Patton the warrior to have died on the battlefield, but that was not to be. Despite the fact that throughout his military career he had constantly exposed himself to danger, it was a traffic accident, not a bullet, which took Patton's life. In December 1945, one day before he was due to return to the United States, Patton was severely injured in a road accident when his car was hit by a truck near Mannheim, Germany. Paralyzed from the neck down, George Patton died of an embolism on 21st December 1945.
Emboli are caused by clots from the venous circulation, from the right side of the heart, from tumors that have invaded the circulatory system, or from other sources such as amniotic fluid, air, fat, bone marrow, and foreign substances. Sudden death can occur as a result of embolism. Injecting AIR into a vein or artery is easily done.
He was buried in Luxembourg, a country which still considers George S. Patton its liberator.
Did the emerging USSR deem Patton to be far too dangerous to live? What if he returned to the US and countered his detractors by seeking political power? Was it possible that he, now a national hero, could become president of the United States? Patton was a student of war history and it’s generals, including Hannibal, the Carthaginian had been defeated by the Romans at the Battle of Zama in 202 BC after ransacking Italy for 14 years. Hannibal became a diplomatic force and a skilled trader in peacetime and guided Carthage to pay off the war reparations too quickly, and the Romans considered him such an ominous threat as to hunt him down and kill him. Could Patton have followed that idea? We’ll never know.
Surely a President Patton would have meant war against the USSR. When would agents of the Russians have better means and opportunity to murder him than in Europe? He would be unreachable back in the States. But was someone ELSE afraid of Patton? His murder would be unexplainable back in the States and not readily accountable to foreign agents. Was the USA also afraid of George S. Patton?
But then it was a simple car accident, wasn't it?
Addenda - April 2009
Robert Wilcox has written a book Target Patten, that feeds this particular theory; that Patton's sudden death was a planned assassination. One would suspect that the book is a result of constant conspiracy theories about Patton, and collusion between the Soviet union, the Communist Left in America and the US Government at the highest levels.

50th Anniversary of the Warren Commission
After fifty long years, the huge 26 volume Warren Commission Report is still unbelievable to 85% of the American people. And we are no closer to understanding the What, Why, and Who of the events. Except to suggest it was a coup d'etat of democracy. But it is not going away. Tidbits of information about the perps, if indeed they are the perps, continue to emerge. Even the side issue here about Officer Tippit remains of high interest.

49 years and counting .... November 24
It seems that even after this long long time it would be apropos to repost a couple of things about that infamous day in history. There are still a few reads you can research yourself. But even if you do, they still lead to nothing but even more questions about what actually happened that day in Dallas .....

Today in History - November 24
Lee Harvey Oswald.
While the world was still reeling at the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, we saw the alleged perpetrator of the crime, caught and killed only two days later, and on national TV!
And these many years on we can only marvel at the speed with which his apprehension for the crimes happened. And the positive assertion that Oswald was undoubtedly the lone killer of Officer Tippit and Kennedy.
All these instant conclusions would be astounding even in todays era of nanosecond web communication. Yet over these years so many nagging doubts still evoke questions.
Oswald was supposed to have shot Kennedy from a 6th floor coign of vantage in the Texas Schoolbook Depository, with a Mannlicher-Carcano rifle. But first it was identified as a 7.65 Italian Mauser, by sherrifs and FBI Special Agents. Affidavits were signed. Then it became a 6.5 Carcano rifle. Why? Because the FBI discovered that Oswald HAD purchased a Carcano, but NOT a Mauser. And even other rifles are now mentioned. And it took a world class marksman from the Army to nearly duplicate the 3 shots in 4.5 second feat! Other trained US Marine snipers said it could not be done.
And an almost perfect bullet 'appeared' on the stretcher bearing the President's body. A bullet that went through TWO bodies. That looks as if the Lone Ranger put it there!
Oswald was even identified by someone who SAW him up there from across the street! Is that believeable today?
Oswald was supposedly seen being questioned by Tippit shortly after leaving his job and taking to the streets. Witnesses said they saw him shoot Tippit. They even saw him REloading his handgun while fleeing! Does that sound like a frightened killer? Yet other witnesses said another car pulled up, a man got out and shot Tippit and then roared away! Someone else saw two men who were NOT Oswald. Witnesses even identified a different assailant as heavy set, wearing a long overcoat. Many witnesses claimed intimidations and threats about their testimonys. Several eye-witnesses died soon after.
The Warren Commission ignored most of it.
And what was Officer Tippit up to on the hour before he died? Why was he far out of his patrol area? Why did he suddenly rush to 10th Street and stop to make a phone call in a cafe but only listened and said nothing? Why did he seem panicked when he made the call? He left his car radio at a crucial time. Then he was seen cruising very slowly. Why was Tippit known in the area he died in? Some witnesses thought he lived nearby. But it was miles from his patrol area and his home?
How did anyone know Oswald's path of exit? Was it coincidence? Happenstance? Or enemy action? Officer Tippit was directed exactly where to go, minutes after the murder. Then radioed back when he was in position. Why was Tippit directed to 10th St? Was he? The Dallas police lieutenant who may have directed Tippit that day, Harry Dean Thomas, married his widow three years later.
The shells from the shooting were gathered by policeman, J.M. Poe, and he marked them with his initials, however the shell casings eventually entered into evidence had no such markings.
Oswald went to his rooming house first. Who were the two policemen who stopped in front, gave two horn honks and went away? Then he went to a movie theatre. Why did he go there instead of staying on a bus and getting far away? Was he under a prearranged instruction to go to that theatre? Part of a plan to have him where someone wanted him? Did someone give him a revolver there? Perhaps the very revolver just used to kill Tippit? Perhaps by the very person who DID kill Tippit? The revolver in his possession was fully loaded with no empty chambers. And he had no additional ammunition with him. So if Oswald shot Tippit four times, and REloaded, then he must have had only had four extra bullets with him? Seems too odd, doesn't it?
Oswald was constant in his claim that he was a patsy. He was innocent. He never shot anybody. And more than one scholar who has gone through the whole case has said the Mexico and Soviet Union implications could have easily pointed to Oswald being a CIA spy.
Alas, all these years later we are still suspicious, yet nowhere near advanced in our factuals about how it happened. The circumstances seem just too complex. The evidence now too scattered. Diffused. Lost. Misinformation and disinformation. Indeed, but we have more questions than ever.
His actions seem to be a response to suddenly realizing he had been set up. Confusion, desperation, the compounding of events leading him to take a predetermined escape route as his only hope. A route designed by who?
Lee Harvey Oswald was never actually charged with killing the Presdient.

This day in history - - - September 27
(1963 – 64) The Warren Commission. A group appointed by Pres. Lyndon B. Johnson to investigate the circumstances surrounding President John F. Kennedy's slaying and the shooting of his (alleged) assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald. It was chaired by Earl Warren and included two U.S. senators, two U.S. congressmen, and two former public officials.
After months of investigation, it reported that Kennedy was killed by Oswald's rifle shots from the Texas School Book Depository and that Oswald's murder by Jack Ruby two days later was not part of a conspiracy to assassinate Kennedy.
Its findings were later questioned in a number of books and articles and in a special congressional committee report in 1979, though no conclusive contradictory evidence was found.
One of those first books, Rush to Judgment, by lawyer Mark Lane, pointed out that the conclusions in the Summery, those few pages that most people and reporters read, had little to do with the volumes of actual evidence in the content.
Today a believer of this, 'Oswald alone', conclusion is rare. And because that summery seemed falsified, it berthed a lifetime of conspiracy theories about the President's death.
Even following the interesting side story of the trail of Officer Tippit on that day and you might join the legions of disbelievers.
The members of that Warren Commission were -
- Earl Warren - Chief Justice of the United States. Eisenhower offered Warren the post of solicitor general, with the promise of a seat on the Supreme Court. But before it was announced, Chief Justice Fred M. Vinson unexpectedly died in September 1953 and Eisenhower replaced him with Warren. As Chief Justice of the United States some said many of his decisions were 'inappropriate'.
- Hale Boggs - Died mysteriously in a plane crash while flying over remote Alaska in October, 1972 . Wreckage never found. In April 1971 he had made a speech on the floor of the House in which he strongly attacked J. Edgar Hoover and the whole of the FBI.
- Gerald Ford - Future President. Ford commented in his own report that the CIA destroyed or kept from investigators critical secrets connected to the assassination.
- John Sherman Cooper - In the general election in 1954 Cooper was defeated by Alben W. Barkley a Democrat who had been Vice President under Harry S. Truman but Barkley subsequently died, and Cooper was elected to fill his unexpired term in 1956.
- John J. McCloy - He was initially skeptical of the lone gunman theory, but a trip to Dallas with Allen Dulles, an old friend also serving on the Commission, in the spring of 1964 to visit the scene of the assassination convinced him of the case against Lee Harvey Oswald.
- Allen Welsh Dulles - Director of the CIA. It evolved under his directorship into a team of assassins. One member, Frank Sturgis, claimed: "this assassination group (Operation 40) would upon orders, naturally, assassinate either members of the military or the political parties of the foreign country that you were going to infiltrate, and if necessary some of your own members." (Sturgis was also one of the Watergate burglars) Dulles and his staff were forced to resign in September 1961 when President Kennedy reportedly said he wanted to "splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the winds."
The Warren report's lack of candor furthered antigovernment cynicism, which in turn stimulated conspiracy theorists who propounded any number of alternative scenarios, all mutually contradictory, and all going strong today.
Who can you trust?
.
In a new revelation by Jackie Kennedy she recently revealed her suspicions of LBJ. And we all know she married Ari Onassis simply because he was the one man in the world who could actually protect her from an 'unexpected' and mysterious death.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
.... back to today ....
And an even more recent revelation suggests that Jackie Kennedy/Onassis recorded several tapes before she died. And they are somewhere. Waiting to be revealed. It is further proposed by some researchers, that Oswald was a paid asset of the FBI.
Arlen Specter, (later a Senator) was assistant counsel to the Warren Commission (recommended by Gerald Ford) and came up with the single bullet theory, which was readily adopted because having Connally and Kennedy shot by two separate bullets in such a short time frame would indicate TWO assassins and a conspiracy! Convenient, huh? Why did Specter miss so many obvious followup questions to the witnesses?
More questions. In recent years, there have been suggestions that some secret sponsored shadow cell has plans for a coup d'etat of the American Government, even that 9/11 may have been the precursor.
And there are also those who also believe the coup was already accomplished on November 22, 1963!
But just investigating the one aspect of Officer Tippit is an interesting exercise and takes you well away from the 49 years of spin and cover up about JFK. Go ahead, try it. At the very least you'll have a fascinating read, way better than TV fiction. And you'll involve yourself in history.
start here - - -
Dallas Police Officer J.D. Tippet
Officer Tippit timeline
JD Tippit homepage
Officer Tippit's autopsy
Follow the fascinating timeline and perhaps you will come up with more questions too: like why did the Davis sisters believe he lived in the nearby apartment house? Who DID live there to cause Tippit to be there often? Why was he speeding around frantically in the minutes after JFK was shot? Was he supposed to intercept Oswald? Why was he on West 10th Street when he was thought to be miles away at the Dealey Plaza by the overpass? How many contradictions may already be within the transcripts of accounts, interviews and events? Is there one somewhere, just waiting for a new eye to find it? Is there one sentence somewhere that says, 'This cannot be, therefore that must be?'
They can't hide ALL the trails leading to truth. We finally learned the identity of deepthroat, anything can still happen.
And one thing about a coup d'etat, they don't all reveal themselves in a momentary flash through smoke and fire and violence ... they can emerge in stealth over many years.
(Thanks to William M. Drenas [Tippit Timeline], for communicating with me and others for never exhausting their efforts in the search for truth)

Will there ever be discovered a grain of proof? Who knows, but some are still looking.

But just investigating the one aspect of Officer Tippit is an interesting exercise and takes you well away from the 49 years of spin and cover up about JFK. Go ahead, try it. At the very least you'll have a fascinating read, way better than TV fiction. And you'll involve yourself in history.

Officer Tippit's autopsy
Follow the fascinating timeline and perhaps you will come up with more questions too: like why did the Davis sisters believe he lived in the nearby apartment house? Who DID live there to cause Tippit to be there often? Why was he speeding around frantically in the minutes after JFK was shot? Was he supposed to intercept Oswald? Why was he on West 10th Street when he was thought to be miles away at the Dealey Plaza by the overpass? How many contradictions may already be within the transcripts of accounts, interviews and events? Is there one somewhere, just waiting for a new eye to find it? Is there one sentence somewhere that says, 'This cannot be, therefore that must be?'
They can't hide ALL the trails leading to truth. We finally learned the identity of deepthroat, anything can still happen.
And one thing about a coup d'etat, they don't all reveal themselves in a momentary flash through smoke and fire and violence ... they can emerge in stealth over many years.
(Thanks to William M. Drenas [Tippit Timeline], for communicating with me and others for never exhausting their efforts in the search for truth)

SNAFU
Situation Normal, All Fucked Up.
- a confused or chaotic state; a mess. -
This is the way I perceived it .....
You see. The US was okay with Iraq reclaiming Kuwait. The Iraq Kuwait borders went way back to what the British wanted and defined in 1922.
Saddam Hussein even told the US Ambassador what he wanted to do, as he considered Kuwait to still be a province of Iraq, and now he thought His Highness Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah was stealing his oil by side drilling from Kuwait into Iraq's vast Rumaila oil field. The US response was that America had no interest or comment on Iraq's internal affairs.
So Saddam went ahead and attacked Kuwait with his Republican Guard. The The Emir asked the US for help and America ignored their own Ambassador's response to Saddam and this resulted in the first Gulf War where US forces drove out the Iraqi Army and returned control of Kuwait to the Emir. The fact that the US unleashed all that stealth technology on Baghdad when Kuwait was 658 km away had little relevance to the military testing their new toys.
One supposes oil agreements with the Kuwaiti Emir were behind the military action. He also promised democracy at the time.
But George HW Bush, was not re-elected in America. And Saddam Hussein survived the first Gulf War defeat and continued to run his country. A few short years later the young George W. Bush was elected president, and saw Iraq and Saddam Hussein as a score to settle for his Dad. Who he thought was mocked by Hussein. With Dick Cheney as the evil Basil Rathbone character whispering over his shoulder, George W. Bush fell into the surreptitious plan of opportunity.
Two reasons: Iraq had the world's fifth largest proven oil reserves. Saddam had survived the first H.W. Bush war and remained in control of his country while HW Bush was a one term chagrined president! George Jr. saw a need to avenge his Daddy.
And Cheney wanted to provide Haliburton a chance to make billions in reconstruction and oil management. (Haliburton got a billion dollar no-bid contract)
What is real and what is fake? |
Even though the chief suspects of 9/11 were Saudis, or financed by their government, hidden in a 28 page document classified by Dubya. And there is plenty of evidence to show how close the Bush family is to the Royal family in Saudi Arabia.
But the covert reason for war was all that wonderful oil beneath the desert sands.
The second Gulf War devastated the infrastructure of Iraq, turned Baghdad into a US armed camp, and would funnel away Iraq's national oil riches into private companies.
Iraq oil - source - Al Jazeera |
Saddam Hussein was a Sunni Muslim who controlled his country, albeit mercilessly, and was in fact a buffer between Shi'a Iran and Syria. (Iraq was about 10% Kurds, 25% Sunni and 65% Shi'a previous to American occupation.) Saddam kept his borders strong and secure between his two enemies.
But with Iraq basically destroyed by the American invasion, occupation and realignment of the country, including it's oil reserves, there were no strong controls over the population or no viable plan for the country's future direction. The democratization of Iraq was doomed to failure. Not the least contributed to by the use of Blackwater mercenaries and private contractors who were there to protect Americans but would shoot to kill at anything, And did. Innocent civilians not exempted.
Violence, bombings and killings continued to be the normal life in Iraq, even in the strengthened American 'Green Zone' sections of Baghdad.
With America finally pulling out their ground combat forces, the void began to fill with other dissenters, al Qaeda, who Saddam hated, the strengthening of the Kurds who want their own autonomous region, and other Sunnis who were now excluded from Iraqi affairs by Shi'a president al-Maliki. All this confusion and distrust soon became ISIS. Or ISIL, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.
Meanwhile nothing came of the promise of democracy in Kuwait that al-Sabah said he would implement. He is now nothing more than an American satellite oil resource. Kuwait has 8% of the world's oil reserves and is the third largest producer. One can assume His Highness Al-Sabah is properly appreciative of the American military efforts on his behalf.
A vicious circle resulting from personal greed that cost the lives of many brave young men of Britain and America's military for no apparent gain except to those corporations close to the US government.
President Obama has not kept his promise to declassify that potentially revealing 28 page document for the American people.
So here we are on the brink of a third Gulf War, changing alliances yet again to combat the growing world threat of ISIL. Meanwhile, the Republican party continues to covertly denigrate their own potential candidates for the 2016 presidential nomination, while carefully keeping Jeb Bush safely tucked away in a quiet back room.Would a third Bush in the White House complete the circle to the New World Order?
One wonders what the situation would be had Saddam Hussein remained in power? Some believe he would have been the USA's greatest ally in the Middle East.
And even a troubled peace is better than the senseless slaughter now going on.
SNAFU has become FUBAR.
Desert Storm deja vu? |

Police militarization, what does it mean?
Is a para-military coup in the offing?
There are many signs emerging from actions across America that portend something ominous.
It might have started when the Denver Post,on February 15th, 2012, ran an Associated Press article entitled Department of Homeland Security plans to buy 1.6 BILLION rounds of ammo! DHS issued an open order for the ammunition. Some of that purchase order is for sniper rounds, and hollow point rounds which are illegal in International Law for use in WAR! Hollow points are described as optimum penetration for terminal performance. Terminal. As in terminating whomever they hit!
In the Iraq war, the US Army expended only 6 million rounds per month. 1.6 billion rounds would, according to Forbes Magazine, sustain a war for 20 years. In America. The DHS now has over 100,000 armed officers. Some are wondering why the Department of Homeland Security is building a standing army on US soil?
They are also providing drones for state and local police! Their Predator drones come equipped with infrared sensors, radar, heat sensors and video cameras. And DHS has awarded a contract worth 385 million to Haliburton, (who else) to build 'detention centers' on American soil.
It was also revealed that MRAPs, Mine Resistant, Ambush Protected vehicles (which protect soldiers against roadside bombs in WAR zones) have been proliferating among police forces all over America. In most police jurisdictions, there has never ever been a mine detected! In some cases these 750 thousand dollar vehicles seem to have appeared as part of a local police force equipment, for as little as $2800. or have found their way to county policing for free! Either direct from the Pentagon orfrom DHS. And even where a local town population may be only in the hundreds the police have secured armored troop carriers, night-vision rifle scopes, camouflage fatigues, Humvees and dozens of M16 automatic rifles. Is there a reason for such armament in what could be correctly described as villages? In a lot of instances, one might assume the local police chief would like to be prepared, for whatever. But some are suspecting a nefarious reason for DHS to want locals to have equipment designed for all out war!
What is all this pointing toward?
Was the appearance of MRAPs in Ferguson, Missouri part of a carefully programmed plan to condition people to seeing these war machines in their midst? They are apparently in every state right now, from Seattle to Miami, Boston to LA. Ready for use against who?
The introduction of equipment designed for war in Fallujah, Iraq, to the streets of U.S. towns and cities raises questions about the militarization of civilian police departments. Will it make police inappropriately aggressive? Have we seen that in Ferguson from police with better armor than the US Army had in Iraq? Do you recall families buying body armor at home and sending it to their sons and daughters during the Gulf War? Is the line between civilian police and the military now permanently blurred?
Who is the threat? Mexican drug cartels? Insurgents against Democracy? Muslims? Jihadists? Students? Democracy itself? Black people? Gun toting backwoods white people? The banjo boy? Ted Nugent? Michael Hastings?
Perhaps it is perceived that home bred Americans who are just beginning to get acquainted with their situation are the threat?
Is a coup d'etat in the offing?
Being readied right now, waiting for something a little more explosive than Ferguson? Yes, a false flag operation that could incite violence in the streets? Was Ferguson only a preliminary to the main show? Something that can be made to go viral across the country and make the use of all this military power rational? A so-called uprising? Resulting in more war zones across America to use a shock and awe action?
Causing the suspension of the US Constitution?
Will 'no-knock' warrants become common? Will we see these MRAPs patrolling the streets of our main cities, using psychotic faux policemen who are actually anxious to shoot on Americans? How many of these 'policemen' would have been screened out of law enforcement in times past because of revealed social issues? Homeland Security learned through the use of Blackwater mercenaries in the past, that a certain mentality in military policing could be exploited. Was exploited in Iraq until they went crazy and started murdering civilians and independent reporters. In fact, hundreds of war correspondents were killed mysteriously in the Middle East.
And the question was presented then if these forces could be relied upon to fire on American citizens in their own homeland.
And we have recently seen that more journalists, perceive a war against their freedoms to report on happenings, are now threatened within America, from Reuters to AP to the Washington Post to Al Jazeera to destroy their ability to tell you what is going on from the front lines.
Will we see the instigation against black Americans first? To take advantage of the current jagged racial feelings between black and white by many in law enforcement? Incite them and instigate the spread of violence in order to implement a secret plan?
Many people now believe that whoever the American President is, from whatever party, they have no control over the proliferation of armed agencies within the government. Or what they are doing. And if the top commander in the country is powerless, who will defend the American people?
And who is controlling that secret cadre hiding in plain sight? Some believe it will emerge soon.
Is a para military coup in the offing?
Are YOU the target?

Are you Wired for destruction?
Wired Magazine has just revealed at a Black Hat Security Conference in Las Vegas that hackers can actually control your car while it drives! And two inventors have invented a cheap device that can sense mischief in your electronic systems and shut it off. A simple device that easily installs under your car's dashboard into an existing plug-in! The OBD-2 port. Part of the Telematics System.
And the two who invented the $150. device also showed that it can be done wirelessly! It’s even possible to hack a car with malware embedded in an MP3 and with code transmitted over a Wi-Fi connection.Most people are not aware that a modern automobile can be controlled from afar. What do you think OnStar does in your Cadillac? Yet another 'We keep you safe' message.
The inventors performed tests and showed they could even disable brakes at low speeds. Nothing to say they couldn't have done the same thing at high speeds. So we assume they could press that gas pedal electronically to cause high speed, completely oblivious to the terrified driver's physical input! Of course when you press your gas pedal in a modern automobile, you are not pulling a wire somewhere between a carburetor and the pedal, you are sending an electrical impulse to a sensor that pushes more fuel and air into your engine.
Doesn't this take the tin hats off all those who believed that someone took control of journalist Michael Hasting's Mercedes 250 and caused him to crash into a tree so hard the engine was flung hundreds of feet away?
Michael Hastings was a 33 year old, crack investigative reporter for Rolling Stone Magazine, whose June 2010 article, “The Runaway General,” exposed the behind-the-scenes failure of top U.S. General Stanley McChrystal’s counterinsurgency strategy in Afghanistan—and, even more damagingly, revealed McChrystal's mocking attitude toward the Obama administration, which ultimately led to the general’s resignation. Shortly thereafter, Hastings was plagued with threatening phone calls. Speculation that Hastings could have been murdered center around comments made by
former counter-terror czar Richard Clarke, who pointed out the ease with which modern vehicles could be hijacked via computer hacking. A Forbes video demonstrated how it is now possible to commandeer a car using an iPad.
It is a pity that no one revealed this long ago; that someone could take complete control of your vehicle for murderous reasons. One Congressman, Ed Markey sent letters to 20 car manufacturers demanding to know why this is possible in a new vehicle. No response.
Is the NSA having back-door software built into cars now too?
A hacked car has more serious consequences than eavesdropped emails or stolen credit cards. The manufacturers have changed our driving in an honest attempt to make things better for all. However the doors are also open a crack to malicious control of your vehicle.
The inventors said they don't plan to market their invention, but for $150. there are more than a few consumers who would spring for the device and would like to monitor their own vehicles and have control themselves.
Behave yourself and don't be a journalist exposing the truth.
Ride a bike too.

What else can we say?
Have corporations totally taken over the US Government? One can only say YES!
However did this happen without people taking to the streets? Is the manipulation and subjugation of the people of North America almost complete? Who do you turn to when your representatives are against you?

One Microsoft account for everything?
No thanks.
You might have noticed when you access your Hotmail account, that they are now asking you to give them more information, 'to keep you secure'. And they want you to have one account for everything. The sign-in to your computer, your email accounts, your smartphone, your GameBoy consol, chat and Skype etc. all with one password! So easy for you. And them. And when you think that the GCHQ in Britain, and the CIA etc. in North America, now have the ability to open your mic and the webcam on your computer without you knowing, your privacy is already gone!
Some people think this is a bigger security scam than the Nigerian Prince ploy!
One log in for ALL Microsoft accounts and devices. Hmm. Is that what YOU want? And now Microsoft is holding your Hotmail account closed until you ransom it by giving them more info about you. They want to text you or call you with a code to let you back into your own Hotmail messages.
Of course there are many people who believe that Microsoft (who they think sold out years ago to the NSA, check the link) is already reading everything you write into your email messages on Hotmail anyway.
But just in case you ever forget your password, they will send a code to the other reference email address you listed when you signed up. And usually that email try doesn't work, ??? so now they need to text you or call you, and give you that code number, which you need if you want to simply see what Aunt Martha sent you about her cute dog!
Now, if you are a trusting individual, and fear bad guys getting your emails, you give Microsoft your cell number, and voila, a few minutes later they call you or text you with the code. Which you use to go back to your email account, sign-in, type the code in and you're back in business. Now you're more secure, at least that's what they tell you.
Or perhaps less secure if you consider who the bad guys really are.
And as most people have 'smart phones' these days, with the wonderful GPS ability to locate itself, and trace its progress to anywhere, you've just given Microsoft (NSA) the cross referencing ability to track YOU wherever you go!
And sometimes they do the same thing all over again the next time you try to access your Hotmail account! Why more than once? Maybe it's a little like TV detectives questioning you again and again, they're looking for little mistakes in your 'story'. You might have something else that slips out.
They say if you are really you to go ahead and do this. To keep you safe. If you are not you, then ignore the request. What? So if someone really HAS gotten into your Hotmail account, and gets the Microsoft security message too, and has the code sent to their unregistered throwaway phone, how will that keep YOU secure? You will, of course, be unaware they entered the code! Business for the criminal as usual.
Just askin'.
Well, I have abandoned some Hotmail and Google accounts and have migrated the contents of others to other email providers. To be more 'secure', from the bad guys.
Whoever they are.
