Luciferian News Hour Feb. 17 Hello Luciferians. This
is Jim and the Dragon returning to you once again for another weekly news report about things you need to know. We also have
a few stories you don’t need to know about, but we are going to tell you about them anyway. Philippine Mud Disaster A rain-soaked mountainside disintegrated into a torrent of mud in the eastern The farming village on Leyte island, 420 miles southeast of "It sounded like the mountain exploded, and the whole thing crumbled," one survivor said. "I could not see any house standing anymore." Two other villages were inundated, and about 3,000 evacuees were at a municipal hall. "We did not find injured people," said one helicopter crewman. "Most of them are dead and beneath
the mud." The mud was so deep _ up to 30 feet in some places _ and unstable that rescue workers had difficulty
approaching the school. The school had 246 students and seven teachers. Only one child and one adult has been recovered. Dead-Eye Dick Of course the big story in the By mid-week we learned that Whittington, a millionaire attorney from Our question is what were these two high profile men doing with guns out in
a We should note that Cheney was later issued a warning citation for not paying for a $7 stamp allowing
him to shoot upland game birds. His office said it had inquired about the required licenses and thought everything was covered.
The Sheriff’s office said they investigated the incident and Mr. Cheney would not be charged. The way we see it, Cheney violated at least three laws that are probably in the books in In a speech before a mass demonstration in Plans To Attack Strategists at the Pentagon
are drawing up plans for devastating bombing raids backed by submarine-launched ballistic missile attacks against Central Command and Strategic
Command planners are identifying targets, assessing weapon-loads and working on logistics for an operation. With tension mounting over Iran's nuclear programs, Gen. Yuri Baluyevsky,
the chief of Russia's general staff, warned that while Iran's military potential cannot compare to the United States', "it
is hard to predict how the Muslim world will respond to the use of force against Iran." "This may stir the whole world, and it is crucial to prevent anything like
that," the general said. And we agree with him. Bush Bribe Money President Bush now says he wants $75 million in a supplemental
budget to try to spur democracy in Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice told a congressional budget
hearing this week that "The United States will actively confront the aggressive policies of the Iranian regime. At the same
time, we will work to support the aspirations of the Iranian people for freedom and democracy in their country." Rice said the funds would be used to broadcast Iranian Oil Deals In two interesting news
releases this week, Russian Talks A senior Iranian official said no actual uranium enrichment
had yet taken place at the Natanz facility where Growing Cartoon Violence Observers in Only today a Pakistani cleric announced a $1 million bounty for killing the cartoonist who drew
the cartoons, as thousands joined street protests and Since a right-wing Danish newspaper printed the caricatures three
embassy buildings have been burned, five diplomatic missions closed, Danish products boycotted and a price put on the heads
of Danish nationals in Danish aid organisations and non-governmental groups have been expelled,
while the government's pro-democracy Arab Initiative has been foiled. On Monday, police fired tear gas and wielded batons in northwestern
The To make matters worse, a Could it be that the Moslems are taking their religion a bit too seriously
over this thing? The madder they get, the more resistance they are facing from a world filled with “infidels”
that really don’t give a shit. The Hamas Caper The leader of the militant Islamist movement, which won a landslide victory
in last month's general election, said resistance would continue unless Terrorist List The US National Counterterrorism Center maintains a list of 325,000 names
of alleged international terrorism suspects or people who aid them, The Washington Post reports. Citing unnamed counterterrorism
officials, the newspaper said the number has more than quadrupled since the fall of 2003. Few are US citizens, the report
said. That seems like a large number of people with the capability of blowing themselves up for Allah. Mabus Rebellion Saddam Hussein and the
co-defendants were forced into court Monday, obviously against their will, as their trial continued before an Iraqi tribunal. Hussein looked haggard
and was wearing a blue robe instead of his usual crisp suit. His top co-defendant, still in his underwear, sat on the floor
with his back to the judge. The co-defendants and their lawyers were boycotting the trial because they want the newly appointed
chief judge removed. They claim that he is prejudiced against their lawyers. Carrying the Koran, Saddam
entered the court on his own, then stood before the court, pointed a finger and said “Down with Bush. Long live the
nation. Why have you brought us with force? Your authority gives you the right to try a defendant in absentia. Are you trying
to overcome your own smallness?” When the judge responded,
saying “the law will be implemented,” Saddam answered: “Degradation and shame on you Raouf.” He later
called the judges “homosexuals.” The Monday court session
drew testimony from two hostile witnesses, former members of Saddam’s regime. Both men complained that they were being
forced to testify and said they were unable to remember much. On Tuesday, Saddam and
at least one of the other co-defendants announced they were on a hunger strike in protest. Saddam said he had not eaten for
three days. After the Tuesday session,
the trial was adjourned for two weeks, until Feb. 28. Saddam and the seven
co-defendants are on trial for the killing of nearly 150 Shiite Muslims in Dujail. If convicted, they could face the death
penalty by hanging or firing squad. Iraqi Leadership? Shiite lawmakers Sunday chose incumbent Ibrahim al-Jaafari to be Al-Jaafari is assured the post because Shiites won the most parliament seats in the Dec. 15 national
elections. He won 64 votes in a caucus of Shiite legislators. After parliament convenes within two weeks, members must choose the largely ceremonial position
of president, who will then designate the alliance's choice as the new prime minister. Al-Jaafari's designation paves the way for the Shiite alliance to begin talks in earnest with
parties representing Sunni Arabs, Kurds, secularists and others to try to form a broad-based government. Once accomplished,
the A suicide bomber blew himself up in a line of Iraqis waiting to receive government
payments, killing eight people and wounding about 30, including children on Monday. Eleven other people were killed in attacks elsewhere in the country, including
five members of a Shiite religious party and four policemen, among them a colonel. The suicide attack occurred in a mostly Shiite eastern district of Baghdad
as people lined up at a bank Monday morning to receive government checks to compensate for incomplete food rations. In A United Nations report said the The White House rejected the recommendation. The 54-page report summarized an investigation by five U.N. experts. It accused
the New UN Leadership
Ahead Annan's second five-year term ends on Dec. 31 and his successor must be approved by the General
Assembly based on a recommendation from the council. At the moment, the permanent members - the By tradition, the job of secretary-general rotates by region - and Asian and African nations,
who represent the majority of the 191 U.N. member states, believe it is That Venezuelan Oil Bernardo Alvarez, the Venezuelan ambassador in Hugo Chavez, president of Venezuelan Effect
On Oil The next meeting of oil ministers from the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, or OPEC, may
be more than two weeks away but The call from OPEC’s fourth biggest producer comes days after the cartel
trimmed the demand outlook for this year, and follows a sharp fall in prices this week. The drop was triggered by swelling
oil and petroleum product inventories in the Rafael Ramirez, Venezuelan energy minister, said that for the level of demand
there was overproduction of about 1m barrels a day. “I think we should cut between 500,000 and 1m,” said Mr Ramirez,
who is one of the most hawkish ministers in OPEC. Traditionally OPEC has cut supplies in spring and summer. But this changed
last year with With global oil production operating close to capacity there was little flexibility
to boost output if there was a severe supply disruption. However, the prospect of OPEC cutting oil supply when prices remain near $60
a barrel, not just for delivery now but for the next six years, would be a tough political act. Anti-Chavez Efforts In what she called an "inoculation" strategy, Rice said she
is seeking support from Europe and other Latin American nations to highlight U.S. charges that Chavez abuses his power to
target political opponents and business leaders. "The international community has just got to be much more active
in supporting and defending the Venezuelan people," Rice told a congressional hearing. It seems to us Chavez is doing a good
job of defending the Venezuelan people against the Coca For Breakfast "Coca has more calcium than milk. It should be part of the school breakfast,"
the official was quoted as saying in a Bolivian newspaper. The new leftist government of Evo Morales, Old Morales called on Morales made the appeal during a Mass for the more than 30 protesters and police killed in unrest

Laying Down Arms More than 500 right-wing Colombian paramilitaries laid down their arms Wednesday as part of the country's disarmament
program. The ceremony that took place in southern Preval Wins In The deal was cut under pressure from Brazilian officials, whose military led
the United Nations peacekeeping force in Haitians turned out in record numbers to vote for a president. Some 63% of
the 3.5 million registered voters cast ballots, far more than in any other election held since the Duvalier clan was ousted
from power in 1986. The voters showed a clear preference: Preval, the man who was president from
1996 to 2000 and this time headed The Hope movement. Supporters of Preval have taken to the streets, protesting that he was robbed
of an outright victory. The protesters claim of vote fraud was supported week when hundreds of smashed ballot boxes, vote
counting materials and empty polling bags were found in a garbage dump. Bacteria Wars It might be a good idea to wear protective rubber or latex gloves
when you go shopping. A survey recently conducted in The Korea Consumer Protection Board tested six items that are
commonly handled by the public and ran tests for their bacteria content. Shopping cart handles led the way with 1,100 colony forming
units of bacteria per 10 sq cm followed by a mouse used on computers in Internet cafes, which had an average of 690 colony
forming units. Hand straps on buses were next with 380 units, followed by bathroom
doorknobs at 340. Rounding out the list were elevator buttons at 130 colony forming units and hand straps on subways at 86. Bird Flu Is Coming A United Nations medical expert warns that the spread of bird
flu from Dr. David Nabarro said there is no evidence yet of any change
in the virus, which has killed at least 88 people since 2003. Almost all the deaths have been linked to contact with infected
poultry, but experts fear the virus could mutate into a form that spreads easily among humans, setting off a pandemic. Also scientists have confirmed that wild swans in By mid week dead swans in Border Wars Mexican criminal syndicates are stepping up their attacks on American agents patrolling the border
as In recent months, scores of Border Patrol agents have been fired upon or pelted with large stones
as well as with cloth-covered stones that have been doused with flammable liquid and set ablaze. Since October, agents have
been attacked in more than 190 cases. Most of the attacks have occurred along the Mexican border near Gore’s “Truth” Global Warming Issue Backers of the U.N.'s Kyoto Protocol this week renewed their
pleas to the Many experts said that time to slow a rise in temperatures widely
blamed on burning fossil fuels was running out. A British report said the nation might resemble the tropics by 3000, with
rising seas from melting ice swamping the coasts. The United Nations, the European Commission and many environmental
groups all urged tougher action beyond "We need the full participation of all major emitting countries
-- such as the United States, the world's leading economy, but also the world's leading polluter," European Commissioner Stavros
Dimas said in marking the anniversary. He warned that the world needed to strengthen action to contain
global warming or would "run out of time to contain climate change". Most scientists say warming will bring a more chaotic
climate with more heat waves, droughts and floods. NASA has said that 2005 was the warmest year at the earth's
surface since records began in the 1860s. Another recent study showed that concentrations of greenhouse gases were at the
highest in 650,000 years. Ozone Hole The hole
in the ozone layer could grow significantly over the next few years, reigniting fears over skin cancer, cataracts and damage
to vulnerable plant life. According to scientists in Monster Snow Storm A record-breaking storm buried sections of the Northeast under more than 2
feet of snow Sunday, marooning thousands of air travelers and making even a walk to the corner store treacherous. The National Weather Service said 26.9 inches of snow fell in Wind gusting as high as 60 mph blew the snow sideways and raised a risk of
coastal flooding in African Drought International aid agencies are warning of a growing humanitarian crisis caused by drought in the Horn of Africa. The UN estimates that over 17 million people in The International Committee of the Red Cross has begun emergency relief to
500,000 people in southern The drought is so bad in Communities in southern and central 86-Car Crash An intense snow squall cut visibility nearly to zero and caused an 86-vehicle
chain reaction pileup, stacking cars four deep for about 300 yards on an icy western At least 25 people were hurt but no one suffered life-threatening injuries. The series of wrecks started Sunday afternoon when the lake-effect squall
created whiteout conditions on a low-lying section of U.S. 31 along the Algerian Floods Torrential rains have left some 50,000 refugees from Flood waters have destroyed mud brick houses and other shelters in three camps

three refugee camps. Firing
Squad An Indonesian court has sentenced two Australian men to death by firing squad for playing a key role in attempting to
smuggle heroin from the The two were convicted of being the masterminds in a group of nine Australians
arrested in April last year. Four others have been given life terms and the rest are yet to be sentenced. Trade Sanctions The EU on Monday gave the The World Trade Organization's highest court, the appellate body, rejected

meet this goal. The administration's announcement followed news
last Friday that In the meantime, Wal-Mart Hand Slapping The state board that oversees pharmacies voted this week to require Wal-Mart
to stock those “morning-after” contraception pills at its The
unanimous decision by the Massachusetts Board of Pharmacy comes two weeks after three women sued Wal-Mart in state court for
failing to carry the pill in its Wal-Mart and Sam's Club stores in the state. The women argue state policy requires pharmacies to provide all "commonly
prescribed medicines." Apparently officials at Wal-mart consider popping one of these little pills the morning after sex the
same as having an abortion. A bunch of self-righteous Christians just got their hands slapped. Sour Sugar Deals Protecting the The report, by the Commerce Department, said efforts to shield domestic sugar
producers from competition resulted in the loss of more than 10,000 jobs between 1997 and 2002. The industry is one of the
most protected in the Top Rubber Maker Asbestos Bill Stopped The U.S. Senate on Tuesday voted to block legislation to create
a $140 billion privately financed fund to compensate asbestos victims, and let asbestos-linked manufacturing companies off
the hook. But sponsors vowed they would not let the bill die. The Senate vote of 58-41 sustained an objection to the legislation
from John Ensign, a Nevada Republican, on grounds that the fund could violate budget rules by forcing The legislation sought to remove asbestos injury claims from
years of court litigation and pay them from a $140 billion fund financed by asbestos companies and their insurers. That approach
is favored by W.R. Grace and Co., USG Corp. and some of the 70 other companies pushed into bankruptcy by tens of thousands
of asbestos injury claims. Mazda Hydrogen Car Most major auto makers are developing zero-emission hydrogen-powered
fuel cell cars as a potential alternative to today's conventional gasoline and diesel engine cars. But they believe they are decades away from mass production due to high development costs and lack of infrastructure. Mazda said the RX-8 Hydrogen RE, based on its popular RX-8 sports
car, gets around these problems by running on gasoline in the absence of a hydrogen fuelling station, and using existing engine
parts and production facilities to lower costs. The car is powered by Mazda's iconic rotary engine and can switch
between hydrogen and gasoline fuel with the flick of a switch. It can cruise for a maximum 62 miles on hydrogen and 341 miles
on gasoline it said. Now for the lighter side of the news: Two passenger planes of A flight from Free Shoes Thousands of shoes washed up on the beaches of the Dutch The shoes were among many sundry objects, including toys, aluminum trunks,
raincoats and even joints of meat, which fell into the sea when a container ship shed part of its load in a storm on Thursday
night. Police and security forces were sent to the scene to prevent inhabitants from
making off with containers which were still intact, but they were allowing people to help themselves to anything that spilled
out. Press reports said the ship lost as many as 55 containers. The only phantom at the feast, according to the daily newspaper, was the owner
of the beachfront's Head Hunter Airport baggage screeners found a human head with teeth, hair and skin in
the luggage of a woman who said she intended to ward off evil spirits with it. Myrlene Severe, 30, a Haitian-born permanent I wonder if anybody asked where she got it? Skipping A Bet A man staged his own disappearance in the Marvin Hackworth, 46, of Search and rescue teams spent two days looking for him in the rugged mountains in north-central
Wyoming where he had told his wife he was headed to "clear his head" after losing the money. Hard Day’s
Night The Spotsylvania County
Sheriff's Office in Squirrel Hunting In another less publicized hunting accident, a State Police said George Arthur Sikkenga, 64, of Sikkenga was wearing camouflage clothing except for an orange hat, which he
had covered with a hood after sitting down behind a tree. His clothed elbow was all of him that was visible when his friend, Gregory
Scott Wood approached from behind the tree with his 17-calibur rifle. And that is the news for this week. Be sure to tune
