Please see my comment above.
Your head is in the sand on this topic or you agree with it. Your choice.
Maybe you are a Buildabooger...LOL!
Year after year neighborhood after neighborhood turns foreign. You can’t go into any government building offering government services and but feel like you’re the only american there. Foreigners have learned to totally game the system.
I agree there are too many foreigners here, but the only thing they are gaming is social services, I don't see them as a part of some huge NWO conspiracy.
In reference to Plame, do you want to see what real research looks like with sources? Here you go:
My theory is that the yellowcake forgeries were a collaborative effort by the French and CIA coordinated by Wilson. Jacqueline, (Wilson’s second wife), was a French diplomat and may have provided the connections for Wilson to see the forged documents that were supplied by the French through the Italians. It has been reported that she was a "cultural counselor" for the French Embassy, which some say is code for she was doing undercover work. In other words it is possible that Wilson knew that the docs were forged because he was privy to the information that French wanted to discredit the British info on Saddam shopping for yellowcake and that Wilson's objective was the same. The French just happen to manage the yellowcake production in Niger.
Therefore, Wilson did not lie when he said he saw the documents.
Per a thread by Fedora:
French intelligence soon began a campaign to discredit the US case for war against Iraq. In 1999, French intelligence had begun investigating the security of uranium supplies in Niger, where uranium production was controlled by a consortium led by the French mining company COGEMA, a division of the French state-owned nuclear energy firm AREVA. At that time, Italian businessman Rocco Martino provided French intelligence with genuine documents revealing that Iraq was planning to expand trade with Niger. French intelligence took an interest in the documents and asked Martino to provide more information. In 2000 he used a contact in the Niger embassy in Rome to provide French intelligence with documents purporting that Iraq had purchased uranium from Niger. These documents were later exposed as forgeries;< snip >
Since it is now also known that French intelligence was trying to push Martino’s forgeries on US and British intelligence, as simultaneously the Democratic National Committee was planning to discredit President Bush’s Iraq policy by accusing his administration of manufacturing evidence against Hussein’s regime, heightened suspicion is cast on Wilson’s use of the Niger investigation to discredit the Bush administration’s case for war.
Also, Rocco Martino only "procured" the documents, he did not forge them. Fitzgerald went to Italy to investigate the Niger Embassy (in Rome) burglary...where the letterhead and seals for the forgeries were stolen. Ex-CIA agent (and coincidentally, an advisor to the Vatican in Rome),Vincent Cannistraro has stated that Alan Wolf and Duane Clarridge were the actual forgers, but his account is the only one available that I can find on the subject. He has also pointed the finger at Michael Ledeen, but Ledeen has publicly made a statement that he had nothing to do with it and demanded an apology from Cannistraro.
In addition, despite what the MSM is reporting, the Italians released a press report yesterday saying they had nothing to do with the forgeries:
Italy denies role in fake documents on Iraq
This was also backed up by Rocco here
Cannistraro's "theory" falls apart when you consider that he:
1) blamed SISME (the Italians), which has proven to be wrong
2) bases his assumptions on a Dec 2001 Ledeen meeting, when Cannistraro himself was in Rome in Nov 2001, which would make him just as suspect.
I also discovered that Cannistraro worked directly with Clarridge during Iran Contra, so he has alot of nerve bringing that up in connection to Ledeen. Another interesting tidbit (#47) that I discovered is that Wolf and Clarridge worked with Aldrich Ames, who outed Plame to the Russians in the 90's. Coincidence? I think not. Cannistraro trying to kill two birds with one stone to cover his own carcass seems to be the more likely answer. Equally suspicious is the Hersch article, where Cannistraro and another unnamed agent state the exact route the documents took and Cannistraro actually admits that he called the CIA about the documents before they were proven to be false. This begs the question...just how did Cannistraro know about the documents before they were vetted? Sounds a whole lot like Wilson's slip-up about seeing the documents.
Hersch also claims in the above linked article:
Another explanation was provided by a former senior C.I.A. officer. He had begun talking to me about the Niger papers in March, when I first wrote about the forgery, and said, “Somebody deliberately let something false get in there.” He became more forthcoming in subsequent months, eventually saying that a small group of disgruntled retired C.I.A. clandestine operators had banded together in the late summer of last year and drafted the fraudulent documents themselves.A more reliable source, Joe diGenova claims it was a possible CIA coup as well. As does James Lewis in two articles, here and here
Two other names just crept into this...Niger Ambassador Adamou Chekou, who was in charge at the Embassy when the break-in and forgeries occurred and Wissam al-Zahawiah, Iraqi Ambassador to the Holy See. Seems Italian Intelligence was eavesdropping on these two and discovered their "hotline".
Did you read that carefully. Holy See? As in Vatican? Where Vincent Cannistraro is the security advisor?
And speaking of al Zahawie, he was also apparently clairvoyant:
JANUARY 2003 : (AL ZAHAWIE, "RETIRED IN JORDAN" - IS RECALLED BACK TO BAGHDAD, IRAQ; HE IS TAKEN TO MEET UN WEAPONS INSPECTORS) But last January, al-Zahawie was summoned back to Baghdad for what he had expected would be a request to help Iraq's Foreign Service plan for deputy prime minister Tariq Aziz's planned visit to the Vatican. Instead, upon landing in Baghdad, al-Zahawie was taken to meet with UN weapons inspectors. Five inspectors interviewed him in a 90-minute session, he says.Also take into consideration:"They asked why I went [to Niger], why I was chosen, when I left Rome and whether there were any other Iraqi diplomats at the Vatican," he says. "But then they asked who had the seal of the embassy and where I had left it." That's when al-Zahawie got wind of some kind of foul play. Italy had handed over cables from al-Zahawie to the Niger government announcing the trip, and other documents had pointed to his presence in Niger. But the inspectors were particularly interested in a July 6, 2000, document bearing al-Zahawie's signature, concerning a proposed uranium transaction. The inspectors refused to show him the letter, he says, but al-Zahawie was sure he had never written it. "If they had such a letter, it had to have been a forgery," he says. The tell-tale signs of the forgery were quite obvious, he stresses. [* My note: How would he know the 'tell-tale sign' if they refused to show the letters to him? Shades of Joe Wilson's foreknowledge of the docs?]
Wilson (as Ambassador to Gabon) had/has connections to the Gabon Chief of State, Omar Bongo, who was the chief African ally of the French oil company TotalFinaElf, a major beneficiary of the Oil-for-Food bribes. Prior to the Iraq War, they had a contract with Saddam's regime worth an estimated 12.5 to 27.0 billion barrels of oil reserves. Also he had connections via the Middle East Institute and Rock Creek, both of which are Saudi controlled.
Wilson's wife Jacqueline was also apparently a lobbyist for Bongo and it seems Wilson was pretty chummy with Saddam's weapons buyer, having dinner with him on the eve that Kuwait was invaded in 1990. She is now an advisor to Bongo, her picture from a 2005 conference can be found here That makes it very clear that there are connections to oil-for-food. No wonder Wilson can afford his lifestyle.

FEBRUARY 1999 : (NIGER : IRAQ'S FORMER AMBASSADOR TO THE VATICAN AL-ZAHAWIE VISITS NIAMEY, NIGER'S CAPITOL, WHILE ON A TOUR OF WEST AFRICAN NATIONS, TO INVITE PRESIDENT MAINASSARA TO BAGHDAD) a February 1999 visit to Niamey, Niger's capital, by Wissam al-Zahawie, Iraq's former ambassador to the Vatican. [He later claimed that his] trip had nothing to do with uranium. He was touring four West African nations, he said, and came here to invite Niger's then-President Ibrahim Bare Mainassara to Baghdad. Mainassara was assassinated two months later, and al-Zahawie could not be reached for comment about their talks. - "A look at the U.S.-British claims that Iraq tried to acquire uranium in Africa," AP, SEPT 21, 2003And you want to see the real “kicker”?

Finally, Mr. Kristof closes with a value-added Premium Truth Select wrinkle - apparently, he has decided to provide a very subtle (unannounced, we might say) correction to his Oct 11, 2003 column. We dare not predict what tomorrow will bring, but this is from the current version of his entry, as he deplores the attacks on Joe Wilson, private citizen:And the fact is that his wife's career at CIA has been destroyed; she's never going to be Rome Station Chief.Fascinating.
Yes, that is indeed fascinating and brings to light the relationship between Kristof and the Wilsons. How would Kristof know such a juicy detail about Valerie's future ambitions? Easy...Joe told him. You see, Kristof was the original person who wrote about Joe Wilson's trip {admittedly} as related to him by none other than Wilson himself. It was the trigger that set in motion a series of events that has brought this matter to where it is today. Some think that with the end of Fitzgerald's investigation, this whole matter is over. But is it really?
The write up on Corsi —which is the basis of this conversation—took place in the washington times.
It still leads back to Batboy (Corsi). Just because someone at the Times drank koolaid with Corsi, doesn't make it credible. Maybe they should switch to mint tea, then at least the Dems might buy what they're peddling.
You can work for whoever you want. That’s what you’re doing. Defending that meeting next month and all that that implies.
What do you make of this? I got it off a CFR task force meeting. The formatting is theirs.
W HAT WE SHOULD DO BY 2010 •
LaythegroundworkforthefreerflowofpeoplewithinNorth America. The three governments should commit themselves to the long-term goal of dramatically diminishing the need for theoftravelersfromthirdcountriesattheirfirstpointofentryintoNorth America and the elimination of most controls over the temporary movement of these travelers within North America
Please correct me if I'm mistaken but aren't they talking about erasing borders?
Yes. This government has already funded monies to pay for militarily protecting the borders of the perimeter of Canada, the US, and Mexico.
Overseen by some nefarious group.
That’s what I thought, thanks.
The border pass is just a glorified green card, seems to me it would be more secure.
Three former high-ranking government officials from Canada, Mexico, and the United States are calling for a North American economic and security community by 2010 to address shared security threats, challenges to competitiveness, and interest in broad-based development across the three countries.
Why didn't you highlight the last of that sentence? I don't see it as such a bad thing to cooperate on security and economic issue with our neighbors. Heck, my neighbor and I built a fence together and keep an eye on each other's houses, but that doesn't mean he can trespass on my sovereign land any time he wants. Once again, security and trade issues is all this is.
Yes, Perry needs be strung from the highest tree for his treason in Texas concerning the eminent domain issue. Again though, that is a trade issue and has nothing to do with sovereignty.
As for the Mexican port...if they can improve their economy...great. Then we won't have so many illegals coming across the border. And if they expand trade as much as they say they are, the American workers will have plenty of jobs on our side of the border.
I just don't see the big threat here. Even Corsi admits there has been no agreement or treaty signed. Just because the CFR has this on their wish list doesn't mean it will be under their Christmas tree this year.

Latest Major Action: Became Public Law No: 109-37 [GPO: Text, PDF]
Here’s the deal. Trade agreements are fine for prosperity and partnership, sure. No harm there.
Watch for the Amero to emerge as the dollar continues to tank. A common currency is the key to further integration. Watch also for the responses and policies implemented after the next terrorist attack on the US. It’s a convenient excuse to further degrade our Constitutional rights, as the Patriot Act has the potential to do.
After a trade community is established, it’s not so far a leap to bring judicial authority into the picture, as entities across borders get into disputes. The progression continues, and like a frog slowly boiled, we have a NAU.
Sure, the three nations exist in name, as they do in Europe, but there’s no real meaning to them.
Thanks...while I don’t really think it is going to change my view on this, I do appreciate your providing information for a reasoned debate, you are the first to do so. Although, I’ll have more time to check it out tomorrow, right now I have a super secret meeting to go to. Me and the dogs are going to figure out a strategy on how to kill that danged squirrel that has been teasing them, then I have to cook hubby’s dinner. “See” y’all tommorrow!
As I thought. Confronted with dozens of bills and documents...and it's escape time. FOFLOL! Make sure you return with some better scripts.
Excellent post. Bookmarked.
BINGO!
CONGRESS is as complicit with this as is the president, and the media, which refuses to report these things in the news so that American citizens and be informed.
I CAN NAME THAT TUNE IN.................5 seconds!
Yes they are. Most Americans won't know what hit them and then be stunned when they realize this has been in the making for some time and didn't see it.
I can name it in 3. :)
