One World Tyranny

"The Trilateralist Commission is international...(and)...is intended to
be the vehicle for multinational consolidation of the commercial and
banking interests by seizing control of the political government of the
United States. The Trilateralist Commission represents a skillful,
coordinated effort to seize control and consolidate the four centers of
power - political, monetary, intellectual, and ecclesiastical."
-- Barry Goldwater
(1909-1998) US Senator (R-Arizona)
Source: in his book "With No Apologies"

"The main purpose of the Council on Foreign Relations
is promoting the disarmament of U.S. sovereignty and
national independence and submergence into an all powerful,
one world government."
-- Rear Admiral Chester Ward
Rear Admiral US Navy (retired), CFR member for 16 years, Judge Advocate General of the Navy 1956-60

"We operate here under directives which emulate from the White House...
The substance of the directives under which we operate is that we shall
use our grant making power to alter life in the United States such that
we can comfortably be merged with the Soviet Union."

"Once a nation parts with the control of its currency and credit,
it matters not who makes the nations laws. Usury, once in control,
will wreck any nation. Until the control of the issue of currency
and credit is restored to government and recognized as its most sacred
responsibility, all talk of the sovereignty of parliament and
of democracy is idle and futile."
-- William Lyon Mackenzie King
(1874-1950) Prime Minister of Canada
1935

"It is useless for the sheep to pass resolutions
in favor of vegetarianism while the wolf remains
of a different opinion."
-- William Ralph Inge

"It was the Law of the Sea, they said.
Civilization ends at the waterline.
Beyond that, we all enter the food chain,
and not always right at the top."

Clear and Present Danger

Clear and Present Danger
By: Tom Clancy
Published: 1989
Follows: The Cardinal of the Kremlin
Followed By: The Sum of All Fears

The Cold War is coming to a close. Winds of change starting too blow across the globe. The old rules are slowely swept aside as new players appear on the global stage, players such as the Colombian Drug Cartels. In Washington, a looming election causes the President to take stronger action against the flow of illeagal narcotics into the country, primarily cocaine. When fate allows the FBI to seize several hundred million dollars worth of laundered money belonging to the Medellin Cartel, retaliaton is inevatable. Acting on information obtained by Felix Cortes, an ex-Cuban intelligeance officer, cartel head Ernesto Escobeado orders the assannation of the heads of the FBI, DEA and the American ambassador to Colombia. Enraged the President orders the gloves to come off, light infantry is deployed to target Cartel processing sites, and the CIA's deadliest operative, John Clark, is unleashed, sparking a chain of events that will make CIA Acting Deputy Director (Intelligence) Jack Ryan question his superiors, and racing against time to prevent the troops deployed against the Cartel from being sacrificed by an ambitious National Security Advisor.

In Clear and Present Danger Tom Clancy exams the morality behind covert operations (especially in friendly nations) and the role played by elections on political figures. The novel also provides his thoughts on the War on Drugs (something he fealt was primeraly a matter for the FBI and the like). If you like Clancy, or are interested in the "War on Drugs", check this out.

My 2 cents. The War on Drugs is pointless. Cocaine is a product consumers want, if an adult decides he/she wants to do cocaine (or any other drug) then let them. The Government has no right to tell us what we can or can not put into our bodies of our own free will. Legalize cocaine, regulate it's production and tax the hell out of it like you do my booze.
