		<description>&lt;p&gt;This post is great. Yet more proof that Bush and Obama’s administrations will abuse the classification system. Where is some pixie dust when silliness like this abounds?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Schmall’s bar for reaching the “I don’t recall” phrase is pretty low given the qualifier to every John Cline question is “on Saturday June 14.” As I understand it, even if Schmall has &lt;em&gt;perfect&lt;/em&gt; recall of the Saturday conversation with Libby, if  Schmall does &lt;em&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; recall it was the “14th” then Schmall has to answer, “I do not recall.” &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Maybe somewhere later in the transcript someone asks Schmall the same questions– minus the limiting date stamp?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Here,here!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Try googling Mormon Mafia sometime.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Seems it started back during Howard Hughes days in Vegas.Hughes hired ONLY Mormons. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The government also patterened much of their data systems off the Mormon genealogy compilation methods.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Is it any wonder that Harry Reid,a Mormon from Vegas is in the position he is?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;OR that Mitt Romney’s Bain Capital is partnered with the Carlyle Group-MIC heavyweight?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I read that much of the missionary work done in the Mormon religion -especially that done  in foreign lands, provides significant numbers of potential government operatives.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now wouldn’t it just be a pip if Scientology and the infamous “Family” of C Street were linked?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;For some reason, the CIA…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;L Ron Hubbard was long involved with the intelligence community up to his eyeballs.  He was involved with Operation Bluebird and Paperclip, bringing Nazi scientists here with their medical (psyop) research.  He was playing footsie with the guy who started the Jet Propulsion Lab, who also happened to be a member of Crowley’s Golden Dawn.  I wish this was just an insane conspiracy theory, but it’s unfortunately true.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Scientologist mind-control techniques were perfected by the CIA and their precursors.  This is not a mystery.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The truth of the link between Intelligence and Scientology is much weirder than you can even imagine.  And that’s before you add the Mormon leadership of the 1950’s and 60’s to the mix (for real).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Historian Peter Levenda’s excellent and thoroughly sourced epic work, &lt;em&gt;Sinister Forces: A Grimoire of American Political Witchcraft&lt;/em&gt; provides the details.  The connections are just astounding.  Don’t read it before bedtime.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;It’s also hard to imagine the frothy Clinton obsessed press passing up their opportunity to share in this kind of headline:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/lawandorder/5934016/Hillary-Clinton-made-security-help-threat-to-David-Miliband-over-Binyam-Mohamed-case.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Hillary Clinton made security help ‘threat’ to David Miliband over Binyam Mohamed case &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hillary threatening Britain with death to its citizens unless it helps cover up Presidential crime and the Murdochian Press passes? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Insisting that there could be no “wriggle room” on the issue, the judge said: “He (Mr Miliband) understands the position of the US government is that it would risk the intelligence relationship with the United Kingdom with the result that there would be a serious risk to the national security of the UK and that would endanger the men, women and children of the United Kingdom – that is really what Mrs Clinton is saying according to the Foreign Secretary?” &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;In that case, it was certainly Cline’s error. It’s the type of error that only someone who knew end of the sentence would make. It appears that Cline changed the sentence mid-stream. He probably started out intending to say &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;about the concern over possible suicide operations [by a terrorist group with links to Al-Qaeda] to highjack&lt;strike&gt;ed&lt;/strike&gt; aircraft at &lt;strike&gt;Al-Qaeda&lt;/strike&gt; [Baghdad or some other] International Airport ?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;The part that surprises me for not getting attention is the US threat to Britain to hold back information that can save lives if they release the war crimes evidence. The US press pretty much ignored it when S.Arabia was doing it as well. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It doesn’t surprise me to hear the, “we can’t release info bc it will touch on another country and may hurt our relationships” blather and have that get no press. But for one of our closest allies to be saying that yes, the court has pretty much said what is being held back is evidence of a crime, but we can’t reveal it bc the US is willing to let Brits and Americans in Britain die as a retaliatory measure - in a normal world, that should be pretty shocking (and should have been as well during the BAE/Saudi Arabia debacle) to even the “we can’t be in favor of releasing evidence of war crimes bc that would be *partisan* press”&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;The British Judges are pretty peeved at what is coming to light … expect them to lay the wood on the Poodle and his cohorts. I only hope that Vaughn Walker &amp; Co. will continue to reclaim their powers and rap BushCo as hard.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
