That's the only sane reaction to the White House's announcement that America the Brave is to arm the Syrian rebels. The US doesn't plan to send weapons to the horrid rebels, mark you - not to the al-Qa'ida-inspired al-Nusra Front whose chaps film themselves eating Alawites for YouTube videos, barbecue the heads of captured Syrian troops and murder 14-year-old schoolboys for blasphemy. Only to the nice rebels, the Free Syrian Army deserters who are battling the forces of Assad darkness in the interests of freedom, liberty, women's rights and democracy. Anyone who believes this knows nothing about war, killing, barbarity and, especially, greed. Because weapons are not just guns. They are currency. They are money. They are saleable commodities the moment you send them across any border. Their value in US dollars, pounds sterling, Syrian pounds or Qatari dinars is infinitely more important than their use in battle. The Western powers are dangerously close to flooding Syria with weapons and ammunition which will officially go to the nice rebels - but will quickly pass to the horrid rebels, who will sell some of them to al-Qa'ida, Iraqi insurgents, Syrian government troops, Malian militiamen, Taliban fighters and Pakistani hitmen. Guns are about money. It works like this. The nice rebels could be given anti-aircaft missiles (shoulder-fired variety preferred) to use against Assad's helicopters and Migs. Thank you - "shukran" - the nice rebels will say. But once over the border, the horrid rebel Nusra chaps will make an offer the nice rebels can't refuse: either many thousands of dollars or a threat to seize the munitions (head-chopping optional), or a mixture of both. For a hefty sum, the horrid rebels will then split the proceeds with their chaps in Iraq. Ask the Syrian government soldiers - as I have - and they'll tell you that they too would prefer the weapons to go to the nice rebels, who always run away - because the horrid rebels of the Nusra always fight to the last man. In the Lebanese civil war, not a single gun I ever saw was actually donated to the men who carried them. The Phalangists used weapons they received from the Israelis, who got them from the Americans (or with American money, the same thing). The Palestinians used guns from Syria, which had in turn imported them from the Soviet Union. Hezbollah even have a few self-loading rifles which appear to have come long ago from the Lebanese Army, which received them as surplus from the British Ministry of Defence after our chaps left Northern Ireland following the Good Friday Agreement. Back in the Eighties, the US handed out missiles and other goodies to Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, one of the super-freedom fighters trying to kill lots of Russians in Afghanistan. But Mr Hekmatyar then became a super-terrorist and decided to kill lots of post-2001 American occupiers of his country - using the same weapons donated to him by those grand arms dealers Messrs Carter and Reagan Inc. In 1991, the Israelis took delivery of AGM-114C missiles from the Americans - manufactured for the US Marine Corps, who were supposed to fire them at Iraqi soldiers - and used one of them to blow up an ambulance full of Lebanese women and children in 1996. History lesson. The weapons used by both sides in the 1922-3 Irish civil war - and you can see them in museums - included Lee-Enfield .303 rifles, each bearing the imprint of a British crown on the butt. They had been made for the Brits to use against Germans in the First World War.

All across the country, Americans cheered the news that one of the world's largest mass murderers had been brought to justice. Unfortunately, there's a tragedy hiding within this story - and it's being ignored by my colleagues in Congress. You see, in the weeks leading up to Osama bin Laden's death, Pakistani Doctor Shakil Afridi risked his life to provide the U.S. with the information that directly helped Seal Team 6 find and kill bin Laden. Dr. Afridi should be rewarded - or at the very least congratulated - for his efforts. But instead he's been imprisoned, brutally tortured, and sentenced to life in prison for treason by Pakistan's intelligence agency. It's a travesty that this hero is being tortured and his family threatened for the crime of helping America. And it's an outrage the United States continues to send over $2 billion in taxpayer money to Pakistan each year! And it gets worse - much worse.

As a result, massive protests and violence erupted throughout Egypt. And how did the Obama Administration respond? By agreeing to send 20 F-16 fighter jets to Egypt as part of the $1 billion in U.S. taxpayer dollars that are sent to Egypt each year for so-called &quot;foreign aid.&quot; Yes, I will repeat that! The Pentagon handed over $213 million dollars' worth of top-notch F-16 fighter jets to a Muslim Brotherhood-led government hell bent on imposing Sharia Law in Egypt. The sad truth is that our policy of sending billions of taxpayer dollars overseas for so-called &quot;foreign aid&quot; to countries that hate us could end up becoming an international disaster. Should the troubles in Egypt spiral into a regional conflict with Israel, we could find ourselves in the embarrassing position of supplying arms and billions of dollars to both sides of a shooting war. You and I MUST end this madness. I'm will continue to lead the fight to stop taxpayer dollars from flowing to anti-American regimes overseas. And I'm counting on you to stand with me. In Liberty, Senator Rand Paul P.S. The United States is sending billions of dollars overseas in so-called &quot;foreign aid&quot; to countries that are hell bent on undermining U.S. foreign policy.

Florida State Troopers have long been known for pulling out of state drivers over to take all your cash as you might being buying drugs with it. African Americans are the main victims of this official crime. The law banning pipes is an official crime against the people and the US Constitution. Jail should be for criminals, not for almost any citizen. The intention of the law is to make smoking tobacco or marijuana a felony if you use a bong, water pipe, pipe, or use anything with a carburetor or cooling device with piping. Using cash to buy items from a neighbor at a garage sale can get you arrested and prison time in Louisiana. International bankers and corporate organized crime wants to control all of your life, own you, and make you subject to arrest and prison on almost any excuse. Slip having sex with your wife, if you are the woman's husband and miss one orifice, and she is supposed to call you in right away for a felony, even if she is willing. And that is in Texas. If you are a woman and own more than 5 dildos that is a felony and you are considered a dealer. Dildo's can only be sold as condom demonstration devices and must be sold with condoms.

A judge is allowing prosecutors to move forward with charging Jared Marcum, 14, with obstructing an officer, WOWK-TV reported . Marcum got into an argument with a teacher over his "Protect Your Rights" NRA shirt at Logan Middle School in April. He was arrested for disturbing the education process and for obstructing an officer - the latter, according to court documents obtained by WOWK, because Marcum refused to stop talking, thus hindering the arresting officer from doing his job. After Marcum was suspended from school, he returned to class wearing the exact same shirt , as did other students in a show of solidarity. "Every aspect of this is just totally wrong," Marcum's father, Allen Lardieri told WOWK. "He has no background of anything criminal, up until now and it just seems like nobody wants to admit they're wrong." The family's attorney, Ben White, said there no mention in the arresting officer's petition of Marcum making any threats or acting violently. "In my view of the facts, Jared didn't do anything wrong," White said. White is seeking to have the charges against Marcum dismissed. The teen is due back in court on July 11.

This time the offender was Chase Lake Elementary School (CLES) in Edmonds, WA, where some kids were suspended for using Nerf guns on school grounds. And it's an all-too-common story. A child will be punished for drawing a gun, shaping his fingers as one and saying "bang!" merely talking about guns or some other innocuous action. And recently there was a case of a five-year-old boy who brought a cap gun to school to show a friend and then was interrogated for two hours until he wet his pants. It's all very bizarre and very twisted. In the Edmonds case, the children were told that they could bring the toys to school, but I'm not interested in individual details but deeper matters. And make no mistake, something deeper is afoot here. To introduce this, let's start with another common thread in these cases: the reaction of the persecuted children's parents. While they're always upset about the relatively draconian punishment visited upon their kids, their comments often reflect those of Edmonds mother Stacey Leidholm, who addressed her son's suspension and marred permanent record and said "I do understand that they definitely need consequences, but not that harsh of a consequence." Let's stop right there. Why do they "need consequences"? This isn't a matter of simply having to respect the rules even if you disagree with them, since "with toy or facsimile guns, discipline is handed out at the discretion of the principal ," writes KomoNews.com. Moreover, consequences imply a transgression, but what's wrong with playing with toy guns? It's not as if these brightly colored toys could be mistaken for real guns, and playing with them is certainly less likely to cause injury than is playing baseball or most any other sport. So what danger is posed by the possession of toy guns on school grounds? Before I get to that, a bit of history. Not that long ago it was common for boys to bring guns to school, as they might have target shooting afterwards; this was even the case in New York City in the 1940s and '50s, where kids would often ride the subways with their guns. And while this no longer occurred when I attended school in the Bronx in the '70s, no school official even batted an eye at our bringing toy guns to school. That was just what little boys did. Clearly, something has changed in society - and it isn't the availability of guns or little boys' desire to play with them. The obvious answer here is that the last two decades' school shootings and our civilization's general moral decline have changed the equation. But while this would explain the desire to keep students with real firearms off school grounds, there is no logical reason to apply this to toy guns. Saying otherwise is like claiming that because you wouldn't trust an 11-year-old to drive the family car to school, you won't let him bring toy cars with him, either; or that he won't be allowed to possess toy airplanes because he isn't ready to pilot a 747 for Delta. The same applies to the argument that bringing toy guns to school makes the leap to bringing real ones that much shorter; it's as nonsensical as saying that junior is more likely to steal the family sedan if you let him play with Matchbox cars. Of course, there is the paranoia explanation: the school shootings have made people so fearful that anything smacking of firearms is reflexively rejected. And I'm sure this is a factor - but I'm also sure there's more to it. What is it? Conditioning. Many have posited the theory that the goal here is to raise generations amenable to strict gun control by instilling the young with negative attitudes toward firearms. And how better to do this than with swift and sure punishment for anything that evidences even the thought of a gun? Doodle a firearm, point your fingers like one - anything at all - and, bang!, you suffer for your wrong thinking. Think doubleplusgood thoughts, little boy, about flowers and kittens and rainbows and what gender you want to be. And should a child be a tad recalcitrant, nothing creates negative associations with firearms like a two-hour, pants-wetting interrogation at the age of five. (By the way, it's funny how leftists who would outlaw a 30-second spanking will then commit horrendous psychological and emotional child abuse. Hey, nothing convinces a situational-values libtard of the value of punishment like a person in need of reeducation.) To buttress this theory, please consider this 1990s video of our beloved attorney general, Eric Withholder. He outlines a plan for combating violence and says: What we need to do is change the way people think about guns - especially young people - and make it something that's not cool; that it's not acceptable, it's not hip to carry a gun anymore, in the way that we've changed out attitudes about cigarettes. ...Over time we changed the way people thought about smoking, so now we have people who cower outside of buildings and kind of smoke in private and don't want to admit it. And that's what I think we need to do with guns. ...I've asked that the creative community in Washington... devote talent in a more constructive way, so we can get at the minds of these young people. .... People who have credibility with young people should be on the television, on the radio...and telling these youngsters that it's wrong to carry a gun .... I've also asked the school board to make a part of every day some kind of anti-violence, anti-gun message; every day, every school at every level. One thing that I think is clear with young people, and with adults as well, is that we have to be repetitive about this.... We need to do this every day of the week and just really brainwash people into thinking about guns in a vastly different way . Now, I don't imply this is a grand conspiracy. It doesn't have to be when you have millions of like-minded people who, being fellow travelers, all act in similar ways quite instinctively. Sure, there are puppet masters in the vanguard of these movements who create policy (like the zero-tolerance nonsense) and who purposely effect Machiavellian designs, but they are mere catalysts. Of course, there are many others - teachers and administrators (mostly women) - who instinctively dislike guns, or fear them, and for this reason are inclined to carry out these policies and punish a wrong-thinking child harshly. But theirs is more an emotional reaction, as opposed to the colder, more insidious, Luciferian motives of the world's Withholders. But then there are millions of other sheeple, caught in the Matrix, who simply enforce these rules because they exist. As to this, I called CLES and asked someone in community relations the following: "How does the possession of toy guns on school grounds pose a threat?" After giving me a non-answer and then my having to rephrase the question once or twice, the school official seemed genuinely flummoxed and said that she would have to consult the literature and get back to me. An unthinking drone. But the question is, are the rest of us going to be sheeple as well? If not, there are things we can and should do to counter the schools' war on guns and tradition. First, parents should organize, pick up their children from an offending school with toy guns in hand, and play a visible shoot-'em-up game on school grounds. I'm serious. It's called desensitization. Moreover, it tells the children in the strongest way possible that there is nothing wrong with toy-gun play. And if the schools are trying to condition your kids the wrong way, why not condition them the right way? Then there is the stick. The reason insanity keeps occurring at schools and elsewhere is that leftists are never held accountable. But here we must take a leaf out of their book. When someone transgresses against their politically correct code - think Jimmy "the Greek" Snyder, Don Imus, or James Watson here - an apology won't suffice. The left wants the person destroyed. So follow suit. Don't be like a certain popular cable-news host who is wont to say "I don't want to see ____ (the tyrant du jour) lose his job." Make sure a school official who commits leftist abuse upon a child never works again. Go for the jugular, for the kill shot; give no quarter. Go Roman. It's only when thousands of the thought police's decaying corpses of careers are lining the Apian Way that those in darkness will see the light. The Culture War is just that - a war. And if you want to turn it around, this must be your mindset - every day, every way, every school, at every level. http://www.renewamerica.com/columns/duke/130609 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=ba1_1370865991 Fine_Just_Fine The schools' sinister war on guns democrats, gun grabbers, American schools, brainwashing, leftists, police state, tyranny Sun, 09 Jun 2013 18:23:31 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=f61_1370814828 vickster339 You could completely reinvent any persons digital life history and make up any life history you want using this kind of surveillance data mining.... This secret intelligence community data could be used in public or secret courts designed to protect &quot;national security&quot; or whatever. The prosecution would have a piles of endless facts and data to support whatever claims they chose to make. The defense would only have a story of fiction that was once a free life and it would not stand up in court. The Russians warned us of the Boston bombers and you would think a robust system of surveillance could easily track such individuals. I am sure it could if that is was what it is actually designed to do. Right now user data is being monitored tracked and manipulated. Government websites containing public records are being altered actively based on this surveillance. Public data that was once collated for public use is being moved, chopped up, hidden, buried, you name it. The best example of this is the FBI web site itself. Since the Sandy Hook tragedy I have been monitoring 2nd amendment discussions online from nearly every source imaginable. I noticed some of the most convincing 2nd amendment advocates were using statistics from the FBI crime stats website to make pro 2nd arguments. I thought this was a good strategy and typed up some arguments with direct links to the "2011 Homicide Summary" page on the FBI website. When I went to revise my argument recently I noticed all the links suddenly went to contextually meaningless data. After some investigation the data was found chopped up and disorganized in such fashion as to render it useless if you consider the context it was previously used in. In addition it was displayed in such a way you couldn't find the data you were looking for even if you wanted to. Three months ago the following linked page used to be a complete summary page for homicides in the US "2011 Homicide Summary". This web page once included many more tables that have since been relocated. Relevant tables that had data based on age, race, weapon use, totals, and the like: http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/crime-in-the-u.s/2011/crime-in-the-u.s.-2011/tables/expanded-homicide-data-table-11 The old complete summary page is now gone and has been replaced with "Murder Circumstances". The data from the former page "2011 Homicide Summary" has been chopped up and redistributed into various unlabeled tables: http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/crime-in-the-u.s/2011/crime-in-the-u.s.-2011/tables The unlabeled &quot;Expanded Homicide Data Tables 1-15&quot; three months ago made up an organized meaningful complete summary table with sub links to supporting statistics. The FBI has taken organized public data and unorganized intentionally in such a fashion you cannot even use it in a meaningful way now. Any document or argument made linking the removed data now looks like a work of insanity. In its current state you couldn't even edit an old document or argument with links to new data tables even if you wanted to. There is no rational or even good reason to intentionally disorganize this public data in such a way, none. Why would the FBI maliciously disorganize public data like this? They are not just re-organizing their site or some crap, they are monitoring online usage, posts, references, and actively altering the sources. In the context of what is going on nationally, that is my most rational conclusion. It is my opinion that projects like PRISM are driving things like these FBI web site homicide stat page edits. It is OUR data stop jacking with it. &quot;Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.&quot; - Benjamin Franklin http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=f61_1370814828 vickster339 Could programs like PRISM be guiding FBI site edits?

"I was a real firm believer in the conspiracy that it was a controlled demolition," he started. "That it was not in any way as the official story explained. But, this universe is truly one of smoke screens, illusions and wrong paths. If you are presented with new evidence, take it on, even if it contradicts what you or your group want to believe. You have to give the truth the greatest respect, and I do." To most people, it doesn't sound like a particularly outrageous statement to make. In fact, the rest of the video was almost banal in its observations; that the destruction of the towers may actually have been caused by the two 767 passenger jets that flew into them. But to those who subscribed to Veitch's YouTube channel, a channel he set up to promulgate conspiracy theories like the one he was now rejecting, it was tantamount to heresy. "You sell out piece of s---. Rot in hell, Veitch," ran one comment beneath the video. "This man is a pawn," said another. "Your a f---ing pathetic slave," shrilled a third. "What got ya? Money?" So runs what passes for debate on the internet. Veitch had expected a few spiteful comments from the so-called "Truth Movement". What he had not expected was the size or the sheer force of the attack. In the days after he uploaded his video, entitled No Emotional Attachment to 9/11 Theories, Veitch was disowned by his friends, issued with death threats and falsely accused of child abuse in an email sent to 15,000 of his followers. "I went from being Jesus to the devil," he says now. "Or maybe Judas. I thought the term 'Truth Movement' meant that there'd be some search for truth. I was wrong. I was the new Stalin. The poster boy for a mad movement." Charlie Veitch, before his change of heart, protesting in New York's Times Square Charlie Veitch is not Jesus nor Judas nor the devil nor, even, Stalin. He's currently an unemployed father-of-one who lives in a semi, in Salford, Greater Manchester, with his fianc'ee, Stacey. Baggily dressed and 6ft 5in, the 32-year-old looks like a student but carries himself like a philosopher, wielding aphorisms and gesticulating theatrically, as if conducting a symphony of his own sagacity. Veitch is spellbound by ideas, but the problem is that he has two competing world views that he's never been able to reconcile. Born in Rio de Janeiro to a Brazilian mother and a Scottish merchant seaman, Veitch inherited a Right-wing outlook from his father, a patriotic, working class Thatcherite. But his father also passed on a mistrust of authority. "He told me, just because someone's wearing a uniform or a fancy hat, it doesn't mean they're your boss," he says.Veitch Snr was also responsible for Charlie's peripatetic childhood. Attending "a new school every six months", he was bullied on many continents. "I was always birds--- head, because I have a patch of white hair," he says. At Edinburgh Academy, a private school he attended from 14, he fostered an antipathy towards "rugger buggers" who had rich fathers, became prefects and "got all the girls and all the attention". For a while, Veitch's Right-wing opinions dominated his decision-making. He joined the Territorial Army and got a job in the City. But, the other narrative, of a world which pitched "second-rate citizens", as he'd been at school, against the "rugger buggers" - the privileged elite and the heirs to power - was always there, slowly creeping up on him. And at six o'clock one morning, after a night out at a club, it pounced. "I was absolutely spangled from the nightclub when my best friend said 'Charlie, you know you're Right-wing and you joined the Army? Well, they were lying to you.' I'm like, 'What?' He said, '9/11; it wasn't as you think.' It was almost like an initiation into a cult, a religion. You're being given special knowledge." His friend showed him the online documentary Terrorstorm: A History of Government Sponsored Terror, made by the American radio host Alex Jones. It parsed a new version of history, in which governments secretly organised terror attacks to spread fear and extend their matrices of control. From the Reichstag fire to the Gulf of Tonkin up to the present day, it writhed with apparently unassailable facts and sources. Jones is a brilliantly effective propagandist who recently made headlines for his hostile showdown on US television with Piers Morgan, over gun control. His YouTube channel has had over 250 million views while his masterpiece, Terrorstorm, has been watched more than 7 million times. Shortly after watching it, Veitch was made redundant and, instead of looking for a new job, he used some of his lb4,000 payout to buy a camcorder and a megaphone and began uploading short videos to YouTube. As the founder of what he called the Love Police, he was filmed performing quasi situationist stunts, such as standing outside McDonald's with his megaphone berating customers ("Excuse me, sir. Next time I'd advise you to buy some real food for your son"). In more meditative moments, he'd explore his own spiritual, philosophical and conspiratorial notions. Veitch soon gathered subscribers by the tens of thousands. And the bigger Love Police grew, the more radical Veitch became. He occupied Fortnum &amp; Mason during the anti-capitalism rally and Millbank Tower during the student fees demonstrations. He was a witness to the death of Ian Tomlinson during the 2009 G20 summit, called for "chaos" in London, was arrested in Toronto, Edinburgh and London and invited to festivals around the world. "People were throwing money at me. I did a donation appeal and overnight I had lb3,500 in my account," he says. Then, there were the women. "I could have anyone. And there's a lot of cute activist girls in Holland and Denmark." Thrillingly, he was courted by his heroes, Jones and David Icke, the former television sports presenter who believes humanity is being controlled by alien lizards. "It was like being a struggling actor and Tom Cruise phones you," he says. Jones invited him on to his internet show Prison Planet and praised his "great work". Veitch interviewed Icke outside parliament just after the 2010 general election, and in return was sent a birthday present of a T-shirt and a book, signed, "To Charles, a great man doing great things. Love David". Veitch was now a well-known figure in the conspiracy community. But, while some believers could be dismissed as harmless crackpots, there was a malevolent undercurrent to many of the theories. In essence, the modern conspiracy narrative is the same as the one that has existed since at least the 19th century: that the few (often termed the "Illuminati") control the many. This, of course, is the nucleus of the dangerous anti-Jewish myth. When he was an insider, did he experience anti-Semitism? His eyes open wide: "Loads. Loads. I was once accused of being a Jew because of my olive skin and my nose. They said, 'We can't trust him'." And when they say the 'Illuminati' or 'Reptiles', do they actually mean Jews? "It's slightly complicated but, mostly, yes," he says. Charlie Veitch in the BBC documentary Conspiracy Road Trip The turning point came when Veitch accepted an invitation to appear in a BBC documentary, Conspiracy Road Trip, made to mark the 10th anniversary of 9/11. Veitch was accompanied by four people, all of whom believed the many conspiracies surrounding the attack. Veitch was convinced that the Twin Towers had been brought down in a controlled explosion by the government, in cahoots with Mossad. In an attempt to change his mind, the documentary crew took Veitch to meet experts including the chief air traffic controller on the day, demolition specialists and architects. At the start, Veitch was defiant. He showed a video, on a laptop, of the buildings collapsing, saying, "That's a controlled demolition if ever I saw one." He publicly berated the film's presenter, Andrew Maxwell: "You weren't there, man. You just have this obedient psychology." But the more experts he met, the more troubled Veitch became. Finally, when it was shown to him that the towers didn't, in fact, collapse in a manner consistent with a controlled explosion, and how preposterous his notion was that teams of secret operatives had somehow planted thousands of high explosives in the buildings, he admitted defeat. "This is hard, you know, because I've hung on to these ideas for years now," he told Maxwell. "I've always hung out with people who say, 'Yeah, conspiracy! 9/11 demolition!' But now I've spoken to a guy who's explained it. And it makes sense." Back in his hotel room, he phoned his girlfriend. "I don't think 9/11 was an inside job," confessed Veitch. For a moment, there was silence. "You're probably just tired," she said. But by the third day of filming Veitch was so excited by what he'd learnt he decided to post his thoughts on his YouTube channel. And that was when all hell broke loose. "It was relentless," he says. "A guy in Manchester set up a YouTube channel called 'Kill Charlie Veitch'. It said, 'Charlie, I hope you know I'm going to come and kill you. Enjoy your last few days. Goodbye.' So many hate videos were posted - my face superimposed on a pig and someone's killing the pig." Another message featured images of his sister's young children incorporated within a video of child pornography. David Icke posted a message saying that Veitch would come to "deeply regret what he has done", and emailed saying, "Don't write to me. I don't know you, mate." Alex Jones posted a film in which he claimed he'd known "all along", and that Veitch had "psychopath, sociopath eyes". His mother called, devastated, believing the paedophilia "confession" which she'd been emailed, along with 15,000 others, was real. All of which has damaged him. "I don't have the same love for people as I did," he says. "I've become a misanthrope and I've become very cynical. I hope it goes away." Looking back, he describes the conspiracy community as an "evil-worshipping paranoia. As someone who's been deep in it, and seen the hatred and the insanity, I think big terrorist attacks will come from conspiracy theorists." He can envisage an assassination or a bombing carried out by a conspiracy believer who has lost all contact with reality. Conspiracy theorists, he says, are often "bullied people. People who maybe didn't get the girls at school... So they see a lot of rugger bugger types and they're against anything to do with them. They will side with the devil, as long as the devil is against the West." It's impossible to avoid the observation that the person he describes resembles his own schoolboy self. And if his conflation of "rugger buggers" and "the West" is telling, so is his current ideological position. "I've gone full circle in my Right-wing thinking," he says. "There's a professional victimhood in conspiracy theorists. There's a hatred of high achievers." Veitch is now hoping to set up a film production company and to carve out a new career as a documentary maker. As for his own involvement in the conspiracy movement, Veitch has a simpler theory. When asked what it was in his psychology that made him susceptible, he answers emphatically. "Ego," he says. "Ego made me vulnerable." http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=0e5_1370546907 barogers619 The 9/11 conspiracy theorist who changed his mind Truther, 9/11, change of mind, Charlie Veitch Tue, 04 Jun 2013 19:38:45 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=301_1370388513 Penguinister In the latest round of censorship insanity by the Chinese Communist party in their on going war against reality they have banned images of large yellow rubber ducks on the chinese social media site Weibo.
