This is the 101st day that Alan Johnston has been held in captivity. I support all the efforts to get Alan Johnston released and deplore the fact of his kidnapping and imprisonment in Gaza. The events of the past days in Gaza are of great concern. However, I want to compare and contrast his imprisonment by terrorists in Gaza with the US/UK government sponsored and run imprisonment, torture interrogation, medical experimentation and lethal use the surveillance technology for R&D purposes. I do not believe that there is any difference except that I have been subjected to torture 24/7 since August 1998 by a large group of local vigilante criminals and imprisoned indefinitely since February 2001 by surveillance technology from which there is no escape. This constitutes almost nine years of 24/7 abuse by these governments, but no one does or says anything about it. Instead, I am abused in the extreme for accurately reporting what is happening by all those involved who want to deny their and other's extensive criminal behaviour including the media who commit the crime of silence. Which is the worst: to be tortured to death by the US/UK governments or held captive in Gaza?

1. Police TETRA communications system raised questions of health risks in 2001. I have a little clip from an article expressing the real problem from the pulsing of this electromagnetic signal. However, the link to that 2001 article in Police magazine is no long valid. I have included a BBC News article link which brushes aside this health risk as an indication of the debate at that time six years ago.

RADIO GA GA. "Is your health at risk? . . . Over…" Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) at 17.6 Hertz (17.6 pulses each second) is hasardous as a pulse rate for interference effects, not only with equipment but also with people. "The potential for the development of a number of antipersonnel weapons is suggested by the research. ... Sounds and possibly even words which appear to be originating inside the targets head can be induced by signal modulation at very low average power densities. ... Animal experiments have demonstrated the use of low-level microwave signals to produce death by heart seizure or by neurological pathologies resulting from breaching the blood-brain barrier."

The link (http://www.polfed.org/magazine/03_2001/03_2001_gaga.htm) for this magazine article is no longer valid. This was from an article about the police phone TETRA system in the Police Federation magazine in 2001 judging from the URL. The Police Federation and magazine web site only has issues from 2003 now. Perhaps you can find a copy of this magazine in your local library. Try March 2001. From what I see so far the TETRA system has been deemed "safe." They couldn't very well reach any other determination since they invested so much money in it before considering its risks. I shudder to think what might begin to happen to the police forces in the next ten to twenty years and beyond.

The above descriptions of its lethal potential is one of the reasons I describe the use of this surveillance technology as lethal including the side effects from the blood brain barrier breaches indicating that this is occurring. I am continuously subjected to this electromagnetic radiation induced sound from Lt Harry Bird, BS and with whomever they are speaking from this surveillance technology. This is what the US Army calls Sound-to-Skull (S2K).

Anyone who attributes mental illness to hearing voices is not doing a proper job until the whole situation is thoroughly evaluated. Using this technology to induce voice electronically in someone and then claiming that they are mentally ill when they accurately described what is occurring is jus another aspect of using this surveillance technology as a weapon. Those using it try to deny what is happening by blaming the victim hoping to falsely claim that there is a mental health problem when none exists. The psychiatric profession can no longer classify anyone as mentally ill based upon hearing voices.

Police radiation fears dismissed

Fears a new police radio system could affect operators' brains have been dismissed by the government's radiation watchdog.

Evidence that frequencies used by the system may alter brain tissue is "unclear", and potential health risks are "unlikely", a National Radiological Protection Board report says.

The £2.5bn Tetra radio system is being trialed by police in parts of Lancashire before being rolled out across the country.

But opponents say more research is needed before it is put to widespread use.

Ignore Islam, 'ex-Muslims' urge

Islam: Group argues many Muslims scared to leave the faith

A group saying it represents large numbers of "ex-Muslims" is urging policy-makers to ignore the faith.

Campaigner Maryam Namazie said 25 founding members were being named at the body's Westminster launch, representing people scared to speak.

The Council of ex-Muslims believes it represents the views of a majority of secular-minded Muslims in Europe.

The Muslim Council of Britain, the largest umbrella body in the UK, declined to comment on the launch.

Ms Namazie said the new organisation would be a branch of a growing network of secular "ex-Muslims" who oppose the interference of religion in public life.

We are quite certain we represent a majority in Europe and a vast secular and humanist protest movement in countries like Iran Maryam Namazie

It is supported by the British Humanist Association and National Secular Society and is associated with groups in other European countries, principally Germany.

Iranian-born Ms Namazie is a human rights activist whose family fled the country during the 1980 Islamic Revolution. She has frequently challenged religious thinkers for the way she says they try to control the lives of individuals, particularly women.

Brown offered Ashdown Cabinet job

Lord Ashdown is an expert in international politics

Prime Minister-in-waiting Gordon Brown offered former Lib Dem leader Lord Ashdown the Cabinet post of Northern Ireland secretary, the BBC has learned.

Lord Ashdown said the offer was made on Wednesday - after Lib Dem Leader Sir Menzies Campbell said no member of his party would join Mr Brown's government.

The peer said he could not have considered taking a Cabinet post without Sir Menzies' approval.

And he said that he would not have been in favour of the proposal anyway.

He told the BBC: "You do not build partnership government by seeking to add the Liberal Democrats as a bungalow annexe to a Labour government."

BBC political editor Nick Robinson said a meeting on Monday between Sir Menzies and Mr Brown included discussions about junior roles for Lord Ashdown and another Lib Dem peer, Baroness Neuberger.

Subject: Cabinet reshuffle limited by pool of available people in this constitutional Monarchy with its unwritten constitution
Date: Thursday 21 June 2007 10:45
From: Gary D Chance
To: news24@bbc.co.uk

If the chief executive was directly elected by all the people with the executive branch separate from the legislative, cabinet selections would not be limited to elected politicians and could be chosen from the population at large.

This would bring strong expertise into the cabinet level along with a better opportunity for excellent management of the government itself. It would also remove a portion of the politicisation of the civil service since elected officials would not be running the departments of government with an eye on the political consequences.

Until this system of government is fundamentally changed to update it from medieval times, this country will continue to stumble along with a less than optimum government and the terrible failures that have hampered this society for the past decade.

If these changes were in place, Gordon Brown would not now have to look to other parties for cabinet positions. He could really try to get the best people he could into a cabinet from the entire nation outside elected officials. What a relief that would be.

Lib Dem anger over Brown 'tricks'

Lord Ashdown is refusing to comment further on the offer

Gordon Brown has been accused of "dirty tricks" by Lib Dems angry at his attempt to recruit their ex-leader Paddy Ashdown to his first Cabinet.

Lord Ashdown rejected an approach by the prime minister-in-waiting to serve as Northern Ireland Secretary.

Lib Dem sources said Mr Brown had used "underhand tactics" by going behind the back of leader Sir Menzies Campbell.

But junior minister James Purnell insisted it was a genuine offer and Mr Brown wanted "a new kind of politics".

Voters wanted Mr Brown to be open to new ideas, he told BBC News, and "it would be very odd to say that we're not going to look at those ideas, we're not going to use your talent - just because you happen to have a different party political label".

Asked if he thought Mr Brown was trying to undermine his party, Sir Menzies, who describes the chancellor as a good friend, said he was not "in the business of attaching blame to others one way or another".

'Destabilise'

But sources close to the Lib Dem leader accused Mr Brown of "trying to stitch us up... dump on us... divide us".

I told him that I could not conceivably consider such a position unless my leader told me that he thought it was a good idea and even if he did, I didn't Lord Ashdown Profile: Lord Ashdown

They said Mr Brown's backers had deliberately gone behind Sir Menzies' back in an effort to "pick off" Lord Ashdown.

Lib Dem MP Norman Baker said: "It looks like an attempt to destabilise us.

"If he was serious about making an offer, he would have gone about it in a different way."

4. Why is this government opting for the "Watchdog" system instead of a court system where people can maintain standards based upon law and precedents in decisions? This systems allows for secrecy and control. There is no open body of laws and procedures where the individual can address grievances in a judicial environment. Rhetoric to the contrary the so-called watchdog system allows for those in power to maintain that power.

What is needed is an open landlord/tenant judical system which applies to all private and public housing alike equally and fairly to meet fundamental standards for housing. The landlords referenced here are the government local councils throughout the land. Residency associations refer to the likes of the tenant management organisations. These actually usurp tenant orientation for the benefit of the few. The watchdog can make certain that nothing untoward is decided that is not onerous for the few. Local control means local political control and power. This is a government who does not trust freedom, justice and the people. It opts for maintaining power.

Watchdog to tackle poor landlords

Landlords could be penalised for poor service, Ruth Kelly will say

Social housing tenants in England will be able to report landlords who provide poor service to a watchdog, under plans to be announced by Ruth Kelly.

The communities secretary will say that the planned social housing watchdog will be given the authority to force a change of landlord or cap rent rises.

Good social landlords would be "given new freedoms" including being "freed from red tape", Ms Kelly will add.

She will outline the proposals at a major housing speech in Harrogate.

These changes would mean landlords are more accountable whilst ensuring tenants have a real say about how their homes are managed for the first time Ruth Kelly

The proposals, which aim to give tenants more of a voice, follow a six-month review of social housing regulation by academic Professor Martin Cave, of Warwick Business School's Centre for Management under Regulation.

Ms Kelly will say the plans will help to protect the interests of the 8 million people currently living in social housing.

"We need to move to a system that focuses more on tenants and also one that minimises the burdens on good social landlords," she will say.

Seventh terror suspect disappears

The Home Office does not favour the orders to control suspects

A seventh terror suspect has absconded while under a control order, the Home Office has confirmed.

In a written statement to MPs, Police Minister Tony McNulty said the Iraqi disappeared on Monday night.

The man, who has not been named on police advice, had been subject to the control order since November 2005.

The Home Office introduced control orders after the Law Lords ruled that detaining terror suspects was incompatible with human rights laws.

6. The police just run around in circles doing the same thing over and over and not getting anywhere. It's no wonder they want to address their activity in a planning discussion which will articulate for the nation what the police will be doing in the face of the body of threats over the next fifty years. Having to chase down those who escape from control orders or are released from prison improperly or who violate bail license and so on makes the police job difficult if not impossible. Then they are further criticised for limiting responses to credit card fraud reporting as has been described today. By doing this the police are trying to support democracy and the rule of law. All should be interested and participate to preclude further erosions of liberties to a de facto police state.

Call for major review of policing

Police duties have changed, Ken Jones says

An independent review is needed into the long-term direction of policing in England and Wales, says a top officer.

Association of Chief Police Officers president Ken Jones said the service could not "continue to soak up new tasks" as the world changed.

The review should make the police "fit for purpose for the next 20 years", he told the Acpo conference in Manchester.

Gordon Brown told the conference he wanted "to do more to protect and enhance our British way of life".

In his first major speech on law and order since being confirmed as the next prime minister, Mr Brown said he wanted to "support a strong vibrant civic society... a citizenship of responsibilities as well as rights and a citizenship based on fairness to all who play by the rules".

7. BBC News24 broadcast the clip of Hillary and Bill Clinton presenting the theme song for her campaign. It had overtones of the Sopranos television programme evidently complete with a cameo from its central character, but I wouldn't know about that since I do not watch this programme. There was some discussion about this clip since the current series which ended in the US recently has not been broadcast yet in the UK. It was all in good fun with some banter from the presenters including Jon Sopel who made a facetious comment that he was in Soprano Land meaning don't pay any attention to his witticism.

In that spirit I sent the following Email to BBC News24 with some serious aspects of the celebrated US television programme. I was more fascinated with the interesting video clip of Hillary and Bill Clinton who were seen sitting in a diner with an old flip chart type jukebox selection to play her campaign theme song which only got a couple notes it seemed, or maybe I was missing something.

At any rate I am quite intrigued by her political campaign and her outstanding capacity as a lawmaker and politician from the few hearings I've watched coming from the US Senate in which she has participated. It will be a fascinating result if she is elected US President next year which led me to think about what she would do about this surveillance R&D and medical experimentation programme to which I've been subjected here in London since February 2001 just after George W Bush was inaugurated as US president.

This experimental programme has been carried out by former US Marines Colonel Vine, Lt Harry Bird and others with continuous references to the White House, George Bush, the US Defense Department, "Rummy" and others both here in the UK in similar posisitions as others in the US as having provided authority for this experimentatl programme. I recalled reading many years ago about Julianne McKinney's experience way back in the early 1990s describing many of the same experiences which I've been describing for years with more advanced technology however.

She sent a letter to Bill Clinton in 1994 asking about this experimental programme and received a reply from him denying that the US Department of Defense engaged in such activity. While he might have been kept in the dark, I believe that the US Department of Defense is one organisation behind this activity to which I've been subjected since February 2001. They might very well be contracting out this experimental activity for the purpose of deniability.

She replied to Bill Clinton's denial with an extraordinary and quite brilliant letter including black humour that succinctly sums up the experience and response from those of us who are helplessly "witting" (see her letter) but "involuntary" participants in this experimental programme. There is a link to a copy this letter and the reply from Bill Clinton to which she was responding in the copy of the Email below:

24/7 surveillance technology imprisonment, torture interrogation, R&D for the surveillance technology and medical experimentation for nine years so far on an indefinite basis in North Kensington.

Soprano Land has taken over the government. That's the real world.

I have completely ignored the Sopranos. Who needs more thugs? I've got enough.

I have a story for you, however, about my eight years in the 1980s when I took on a reputed Mafioso landlord addressing his crime and corruption.

You know what? This crime and corruption from the UK government is far, far worse including the media quaking in its boots out of fear from reporting the truth.

And, now, for the Hill Bill show which will continue indefinitely too. I wonder what Hillary will do about this 24/7 surveillance activity if she gets elected?

Her husband relied upon a US Defense Department denial letter in the 1990s to fob off reality then look at what happened to him. He got caught in the closet.

So let's hear the whole Hill Bill theme, or was that it?
