That murder of a good man took place in 1962 and now, as I write this in 2007, it is 45 years on and yet the situation has not changed in that an official storyline is maintained and actually accepted by a large number of people, maybe most people but regardless, the point is that this evil crime has not been properly investigated and solved but has been effectively swept under the carpet. That of course is not how justice is supposed to work. ...

Therefore you also know that the invasion and military atrocities in Afghanistan and Iraq are huge unjustified war crimes and you probably have figured out the real intention behind them especially as it appears not to be secret when it was all laid out. I guess the term PNAC is what sums it neatly up. On top of that you may have your suspicions about other things....

I now, but only now, know the answer. It certainly doesn't make any sense to divert traffic that is heading towards Kings Cross down this particular road, it is too far away and can only head in the wrong direction while there are other roads further along the route which could easily have been used instead if the reason for the diversion had genuinely been to divert traffic away from the Kings Cross station because of the events going on there. ...

My view is that the situation is obvious, at least to anyone who cares to look into it with open eyes, that the evidence is crystal clear and the failure of people to see it is not the responsibility of those who see through the cons, scams and tricks of 9/11 and post 9/11 to shout louder at them if a gentle nudge and whisper is not enough and that out of their own choice, albeit maybe subconsciously, they are being selectively deaf. I think the onus for that continuing ignorance must stay with them, besides shouting at people just isn't my style. ...

There are enough inconsistencies, and you only really ever need just one solid one, to make any reasonable person be very suspicious. It is certainly not reasonable to simply accept the picture that the media and the government paints for us when we see glaring inconsistencies and our job is not to accept the false picture but to figure out the right one. How one does that is up to each one of us as private individuals but glossing over the inconsistencies and giving tacit approval to the official explanation is the very opposite of what any of us should do....

Two articles and six video introductions were blocked which meant anyone trying to read those articles or see those videos had either a page not available or page forbidden result but even that was not apparent unless you made repeated efforts and knew what to look for and where, instead you would just get a strange page from another web site, my ISPs home page and no explanation....

You will know because you will either get a 403 or a 404 which means page forbidden or, less honestly, page unavailable, but you probably won't be aware of this much because you will simply see an unexpected page but you won't know the reason for it, so all you will see is that ISP page that doesn't look at all like SaneThinking.com pages. That is how you will know it is a censored page that you tried to view and how you will know that I, Paul E. Coughlin, it's author and publisher, have not yet found out about it. If I had found out about it then I would do a few things. First I copy the file and name it "censored_" and add the original file name exactly and I have instructed my page compiler not to make these pages linked-to at all so they are there, on the server but renamed as described.

All silent. What was on was a program called "Who murdered Princess Diana?" but it turned out to be a program that ought to have been called "Rubbishing the evidence for a conspiracy in the usual style" because while it did raise some of the evidence that warrants a conspiracy theory, murder in this case, it quickly dashed all of it and even stated categorically that she was not murdered. For those who are interested, the evidence clearly points to just that, that she was murdered. However, this is not about Diana but JFK.... (click on the link above for more. 2676 words.)

Do drives fail? Inevitably they must do despite how reliable and excellent they usually are. This is because they have moving parts but also because of the precision involved and relative sensitivity to physical shock. But even if there weren't any moving parts the risk, although much less, would still be enough to cater for it. It is best to assume that it will fail when you least need it to!...

This book together with some of Lobsang's other books, I won't say all of them but that is not a criticism as just the few are real jewels, opened my eyes or maybe cleared the mist away from them, substantially.

I don't remember ever sharing thoughts about it with anyone. I was able to watch it in peace, undisturbed, I turned the sound right down, real low, my parents went off to bed about 10.30 pm and my younger brother likewise and my sister too, they were all packed off safely upstairs in bed and out of the way by the time it aired which must have been at 11pm - and that on it's own was unusual because a TV program of that kind, however you want to slot it, would more normally have been shown in the 8pm slot - I would say, from memory. I had watched and been a big fan of Danger Man years before, also with Patrick McGoohan - the man who a search engine might have been half-named after, if they were wise - (Google, in case you're having difficulty with my crytic sense of humour) and programs like that, thriller series I suppose they might be called, would always be slotted in the earlier part of the evening because in those days TV transmissions ended at about midnight and the viewing schedule was a much simpler formula than today.

It certainly doesn't make any sense to divert traffic that is heading towards Kings Cross down this particular road, it is too far away and can only head in the wrong direction while there are other roads further along the route which could easily have been used instead if the reason for the diversion had genuinely been to divert traffic away from the Kings Cross station because of the events going on there. ...

Religion http://SaneThinking.com/exxtnsmissilepentagon.htm http://SaneThinking.com/exxtnsmissilepentagon.htmRecently, April 2007 in fact, I re-visited the Ex-Christian.net web site after a long absence. Being an ex christian myself, I wanted to see how much we had in common and in particular whether there might be something useful to be gained because I wanted to add something along the same lines on my web site. In fact I briefly had an "Ex christian" category and a "Bible" category but I changed the "Ex christian" one into my "The R. Souls" category (because the christians, not the ex christians, are the retarded or R. souls, lest there be a doubt). So I loitered or as they say in 'newsgroups', lurked, and as I tried to find my way around I noticed a posting about the 9/11 atrocity and that prompted me to make my own posting.... and that produced responses from others... and I replied to some of those and that got reactions... and so I posted a response... and so it goes.......

During war, censors would blank out words or sentences but would routinely not block the letter or article. During "peace" the censors block whole articles so you don't even know they exist(ed).

The opposite of integrity is disintegrity, logically, but if you Google it there are fewer than 5,000 hits and a lot of those are not related to personal integrity at all making the situation even clearer - we use the word in a non human context but never, or extremely rarely, in the human context....
