Gen. Douglas MacArthur, in a speech given to the United States 
Military Academy on May 12, 1962 stated, "You now face a new 
world, a world of change.  We speak in strange terms, of harnessing 
the cosmic energy, of ultimate conflict between a united human 
race and the sinister forces of some other planetary galaxy."  means!!

COMMANDER OF DC NATIONAL GUARD FAILS TO SHOWS UP FOR DEAD SOLDIER'S  FUNERAL

COURTLAND MILLOY, WAHSINGTON POST - In the District, President Bush 
serves as commander in chief of the D.C. National Guard, the way 
governors do in their states. So you might have expected him to show up 
yesterday at the funeral for Spec. Darryl T. Dent, 21, the D.C. 
guardsman who was killed recently in Iraq. Canaan Baptist Church, where 
Dent's funeral was held, is at 16th and Newton streets NW, not five 
miles from the White House. Bush could have jogged to the wake, had a 
courier drop off flowers and a card or, at the very least, telephoned 
the slain soldier's family. Call Bush AWOL, missing in action -- or just 
too busy fundraising. But he blew it. "We haven't heard from him or the 
White House, not a word," said Marion Bruce, Dent's aunt and family 
spokeswoman. "I don't want to speak for the whole family, but I am not 
pleased." 

 Your a moron Artie... Now tell us about Hale-Bopp

I don't really know who Hale bopped, but you pal
Wider-Sham is still looking for anal-satisfaction,
if you are interested.  Word on the street is that
this is rather normal activities for debunkers!!

If you are unpatriotic, as you appear to be,
perhaps you are the moron.  Most debunkers
are traitors, so there is no surprise there!!


US Confirms Dropping Firebombs On Iraqi Troops

American jets killed Iraqi troops with firebombs - similar to the controversial
napalm used in the Vietnam War - in March and April as Marines battled toward
Baghdad.  Marine Corps fighter pilots and commanders who have returned from the
war zone have confirmed dropping dozens of incendiary bombs near bridges over
the Saddam Canal and the Tigris River. The explosions created massive fireballs.
"We napalmed both those (bridge) approaches," said Col. James Alles in a recent
interview. He commanded Marine Air Group 11, based at Miramar Marine

Corps Air Station, during the war. "Unfortunately, there were people there
because you could see them in the (cockpit) video. ... Although many human
rights groups consider incendiary bombs to be inhumane, international law does
not prohibit their use against military forces. The United States has not agreed
to a ban against possible civilian targets. "Incendiaries create burns that are
difficult to treat," said Robert Musil, executive director of Physicians for
Social Responsibility, a Washington group that opposes the use of weapons of
mass destruction.
Musil described the Pentagon's distinction between napalm and Mark 77 firebombs
as "pretty outrageous." "That's clearly Orwellian," he added.

U.S. USED NAPALM-LIKE BOMBS

JAMES W. CRAWLEY, UNION-TRIBUNE STAFF, CA - American jets killed Iraqi 
troops with firebombs - similar to the controversial napalm used in the 
Vietnam War - in March and April as Marines battled toward Baghdad. 
Marine Corps fighter pilots and commanders who have returned from the 
war zone have confirmed dropping dozens of incendiary bombs near bridges 
over the Saddam Canal and the Tigris River. The explosions created 
massive fireballs. 

"We napalmed both those (bridge) approaches," said Col. James Alles in a 
recent interview. He commanded Marine Air Group 11, based at Miramar 
Marine Corps Air Station, during the war. "Unfortunately, there were 
people there because you could see them in the (cockpit) video. 

"They were Iraqi soldiers there. It's no great way to die," he added. 
How many Iraqis died, the military couldn't say. No accurate count has 
been made of Iraqi war casualties. The bombing campaign helped clear the 
path for the Marines' race to Baghdad. During the war, Pentagon 
spokesmen disputed reports that napalm was being used, saying the 
Pentagon's stockpile had been destroyed two years ago. 

Apparently the spokesmen were drawing a distinction between the terms 
"firebomb" and "napalm." If reporters had asked about firebombs, 
officials said yesterday they would have confirmed their use. What the 
Marines dropped, the spokesmen said yesterday, were "Mark 77 firebombs." 
They acknowledged those are incendiary devices with a function 
"remarkably similar" to napalm weapons. Rather than using gasoline and 
benzene as the fuel, the firebombs use kerosene-based jet fuel, which 
has a smaller concentration of benzene.

IRAQI CITIES HOT WITH DEPLETED URANIUM

SARA FLOUNDERS, COASTAL POST, CA - In hot spots in downtown Baghdad, 
reporters have measured radiation levels that are 1,000 to 1,900 times 
higher than normal background radiation levels. It has also opened a 
debate in the Netherlands parliament and media as 1,100 Dutch troops in 
Kuwait prepare to enter Iraq as part of the U.S./British-led occupation 
forces. The Dutch are concerned about the danger of radioactive 
poisoning and radiation sickness in Iraq. Washington has assured the 
Dutch government that it used no DU weapons near Al-Samawah, the town 
where Dutch troops will be stationed. But Dutch journalists and anti-war 
forces have already found holes in the U.S. stories, according to an 
article on the Radio Free Europe website. . . 

In this year's war on Iraq, the Pentagon used its radioactive arsenal 
mainly in the urban centers, rather than in desert battlefields as in 
1991. Many hundreds of thousands of Iraqi people and U.S. soldiers, 
along with British, Polish, Japanese and Dutch soldiers sent to join the 
occupation, will suffer the consequences. The real extent of injuries, 
chronic illness, long-term disabilities and genetic birth defects won't 
be apparent for five to 10 years.

By now, half of all the 697,000 U.S. soldiers involved in the 1991 war 
have reported serious illnesses. According to the American Gulf War 
Veterans Association, more than 30 percent of these soldiers are 
chronically ill and are receiving disability benefits from the Veterans 
Administration. Such a high occurrence of various symptoms has led to 
the illnesses being named Gulf War Syndrome.
