Restored 1927 "Metropolis" adds new subplots on worker Georgy 11811, fight scenes, mobs, giant head of Hel, 1920s carphone!

metropolis-comp3.jpg

Frame by frame, the lost almost-complete version of Metropolis is coming out. METROPOLIS2710

It's an amazing & essentially perfect film, which created the bases for epic pop culture characters like Doc Brown, C3PO, as well as a powerful vision of utopian urbanism -- the film itself created a huge cultural force in the iconography of urban development.

This restored version has new villain enforcing the rules via a car phone!

SPOILER ALERT - this is a truly magic film - however if you want a loose outline of everything, in particular the deleted cuts, read on. Otherwise ditch out...

After a Utopian garden scene with a few new cuts, a factory accident transforms into a vision of Moloch!!

Picture 23.png<Picture 24.png

Picture 25.png

The cityscapes are nice - our hero Freder gives us more city imagery when he gets to the chief's office...

  Picture 26.png Picture 27.png

Picture 28.png<Picture 29.png

His stressing out - more cuts
Picture 30.png Picture 31.png

This still has gotta be the best representation of Capitalist Time as an irreversible flow - thanks Debord! In the new Edit, Freder switches places with (i think) this worker -- then the worker gets chased down. This was cut!

Also the press stand is tight - this whole subplot gets cut, where the totally deleted evil dude comes in.
Picture 32.png Picture 33.png

And the Metropolis Courier!
Picture 34.png Picture 35.png

There was a lot of cut time with this giant head of Hel -- deceased lady, motivates Rotwang to beat the laws of nature. Very unreal & a lot was cut.
Picture 36.png Picture 37.png

Look at Rotwang, he is Luke & Annekin Skywalker, Doc Brown and Dr. Strangelove -- he was preceded in fiction by Dr Frankenstein but really... he says he lost the hand in the process, but the hand kind of controls him, like it has an occult force, just like Dr. Strangelove. Plus of course the Pentagrams.
Picture 38.png

Maria is running a spiritually inspired revolution down in the caves -- naturally a falseflag attack from the government needs to bring this down, but first a tale of the Tower of Babel!

Picture 39.png Picture 40.png Picture 41.png Picture 43.png

Picture 44.png Picture 45.png

Picture 46.png Picture 47.png

Picture 48.png Picture 49.png

Freder falls for Maria while Rotwang & the Mayor hatch a plot. Dig the Persian-style wing formation in the stonework.
Picture 50.png Picture 51.png

Tight live orchestra.
Picture 52.png Picture 53.png

Deleted - Rotwang talking about bringing down the Apocalypse from this wicked angle!
Picture 54.png Picture 55.png

Picture 56.png Picture 57.png

Worker Georgy 11811 is the deleted worker character - we also see more of OSHIWARA, the mod Asian themed Club of Total Sin where Evil Maria launches her bid to become the Beast! The Evil dude gets the worker and thrashes him, then plots further through his carphone!

Picture 58.png Picture 59.png

Also cut, some kinda-slow dialogue with Freder hanging out with the nervous guy from the mayor's office. CARPHONE!
Picture 60.png Picture 61.png

The insane two-way elevator was epic - Evil One pops up!
Picture 62.png Picture 63.png

Groovy Flapper on zooming Elevator!

Picture 64.png Picture 65.png

ZENTRAL BANK VON METROPOLIS - what a Reptilian!
Picture 67.png Picture 68.png

Picture 69.png Picture 71.png

Fritz Lang always had the lighting down so well, like the window light cast here.
Picture 72.png Picture 73.png

Picture 74.png Picture 75.png

Rotwang is going to steal Maria's face - more signs of the occult with Rotwang, who has an awesome Babel style spiral neon lamp on his desk as well.
Picture 76.png Picture 77.png

Ah yes the Fifth Element style. Also the curved shelves are awesome.
Picture 78.png Picture 79.png

Picture 80.png Picture 81.png

Look - it's IRON MAN - and bonus Chi fields too. You know this is why the Germans have had flying saucers figured out for decades!
Picture 82.png Picture 83.png

Picture 84.png

At last we have Robot Maria -- or is it Lady Gaga? The left eye is esoteric... There were a lot of deleted apocalyptic snippets, this priest raving about the apocalypse.

Picture 85.png Picture 87.png

Picture 88.png Picture 89.png

Picture 90.png Picture 91.png

There was a lot deleted from the Babylon stripping scene for US distribution! Deft portrayal of the male gaze - almost nothing this edgy entered US movies or TV for the next 30 years...
Picture 92.png Picture 93.png

Also the bearers of her 4 Horsemen become the sinners - deleted.
Picture 94.png Picture 95.png

Picture 96.png Picture 97.png

Naturally Freder is dreaming about the sexypocalypse... This whole sequence gets a different flow from the adds, a lot freakier. I mean, wow...
Picture 98.png Picture 99.png

Deleted scene about how they lament slacking off on worker repression! Then fighting over Robot Maria... deleted elites shooting elites at her feet!
Picture 100.png Picture 101.png

Epic!

Picture 102.png Picture 103.png

Picture 104.png Picture 105.png

Good Maria vs the Glove of Evil, meanwhile Robot Maria Provocateur launches her plan...
Picture 106.png Picture 107.png

Picture 108.png Picture 109.png

There was a lot of deleted footage of elevators...
Picture 110.png Picture 111.png

She is completely crazy when they get to the machines - a ton of this was cut - it's amazing how much they added!

Picture 112.png Picture 113.png

Picture 115.png  Picture 117.png

There was a lot deleted of the burly worker ("final boss") & Good Maria trying to save subterranean Workertown... Digital effect here :)
Picture 118.png Picture 119.png

Picture 120.png Picture 121.png

Cut footage of the kids crying out, flooding...
Picture 122.png Picture 123.png

Picture 124.png Picture 125.png

The partying at OSHIWARA got cut a lot - alot of partying in general was cut earlier too.
Picture 126.png Picture 127.png

Picture 128.png Picture 129.png

Fritz Lang grabs false group consciousness so well here -- but why stop here when deleted scenes of Rotwang having a Moment with the Hel godhead are on the way....

Picture 130.png Picture 131.png

Mob running scenes were cut heavily - pretty serious stuff
Picture 132.png Picture 133.png

Picture 134.png Picture 135.png

Mob says Burn her! Oh yeah, did we mention Monty Python?! hehehe.. She has some serious intense deleted moments here, with this crowd.
Picture 136.png Picture 137.png

Picture 138.png Picture 139.png

More of the pyre as well...
Picture 140.png Picture 141.png

Picture 142.png

I won't tell you how it ends but the rest seems basically the same....

METROPOLIS2710: Questions about METROPOLIS (1927/2010)

1. There already are several restored versions of METROPOLIS; the one from 2001 even belonging to the UNESCO World Documentary Heritage. What is so special about the restoration of 2010?

All the copies of METROPOLIS that were available so far could only base on the shortened and dramaturgically modified versions that have been used for German and international utilization. They could not be based on the 30 minutes longer version that has received its world premiere on January 10, 1927. This copy had only been on screen for a few months and for decades was considered to be irrecoverable.

So the myth of METROPOLIS as filmic torso grew bigger: It was a known fact that the masterpiece had to undergo significant mutilations; different sources tell about the missing scenes but the repeated search for the wanted footage was unsuccessful. Despite the research of generations of archivists as well as of the Murnau Foundation itself about one quarter of the original version remained missing – up to the sensational discovery in Buenos Aires in 2008 and the current restoration.

2. How does the current restoration look like?
The current restoration wishes to reconstruct as close as possible the original version of METROPOLIS that premiered 1927 and that has been lost for decades. The extensive digital restoration from 2001 provides the base for the version to be restored right now. It will be completed by the newly found pieces of the Argentinian copy. At first the montage of the original version had to be reconstructed that is the order of shots, scenes, and sequences.

Second the footage found in Argentina is being restored digitally. Restoration aims to reduce the damage of the heavily used Argentinian material – whose pictures are difficult to recognize – by using the best amount of digital technology. Furthermore the original score is being re-edited based on the the score composed by Gottfried Huppertz.

3. How far is the restoration of METROPOLIS?
Restoring METROPOLIS not only counts as a film culturally significant but also very complex project. This is due to the problematic condition of the found footage that is a 16mm Dup Negative, not a contemporary 35mm copy or a camera negative. Thanks to the close cooperation of all partners the Murnau Foundation will be able to present the restoration project in February 2010 to the public. The first step, meaning the reconstruction (merging the material known so far with the newly found scenes of the Argentinian version), is finished by now. Right now the scenes coming from the Argentinian version (about 25 minutes length) are being digitally restored.

4. Contrary to the restoration of 2001 that has been included in the UNESCO World Documentary Heritage the base material of the approximate 25 minutes is not a 35mm camera negative but a 16mm Dup Negative. What does this mean for the restoration?
A 35mm nitro copy of the Argentinian distributor from 1927 after commercial utilization became private property of the film critic Manuel Pena Rodriguez. He screened the copy in private film clubs until the 1960s.

His collection later passed into the possession of the Fondo Nacional de las Artes. Safety copies in 16mm Negative were made from the nitro material that afterwards supposedly has been destroyed. This copying lacked competent supervision and duplicated all the damage and stain of the heavily torn copy. In addition the format reduction (35mm to 16mm) resulted in a loss of resolution quality as well as a heavy cut of the picture size.

5. Does the restoration effect change about the plot?
The METROPOLIS version 1927/2010 differs significantly from all the versions known so far. Although the plot of the film keeps its well-known framework the structure of the plot changes: It becomes more harmonic and more comprehensible. Especially the minor characters that Fritz Lang gives room emerge again. Two newly found scenes give Georgy, Josaphat and The Thin Man back their own profiles that through the cuts were almost downgraded to extras.

The now included sequences like Georgy´s car ride through Metropolis as well as Freder and The Thin Man´s visiting with Josaphat turn out to be siginificant for the plot. But also the relationship between the inventor Rotwang and Joh Fredersen, the ruler over Metropolis, as well as the reason for their rivalry become clear through the current restoration: Finally one can see the famous scene “Chamber of Hel”, the departed woman loved by both rivals, from which up to now only one still and several descriptions existed. METROPOLIS (1927/2010) is going to be a film event of it´s own!

7. Will one reach the photographic quality from the version of 2001?
Even by digital means the difference in quality between the version of 2001 which is based on a camera negative and the heavily torn Argentinian material cannot be eliminated. The difference between the two materials will stay visible. The reinserted pieces that have been removed about 80 years ago because of commercial reasons will always be noticeable. Therefore METROPOLIS as filmic torso, a myth capturing generations, will be documented also in the almost complete version.

8. How will the premiere take place?
The world premiere of the restored version of the Murnau Foundation takes place on February 12 at the same time in the Alte Oper (Frankfurt am Main) accompanied by the Staatsorchester Braunschweig under the direction of Helmut Imig as well as in the Friedrichstadtpalast on the occasion of the 60th Berlin International Film Festival accompanied by the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin under the direction of Frank Strobel.
Tickets for the performance in Frankfurt cost 25,50 respectively 39,50 Euro. Tickets are available at the usual advance ticket sale agencies as well as online.
Tickets for the performance on the occasion of the Berlinale will be available in the middle of January. Information can be found on the web page of the Berlinale.

9. Will METROPOLIS be re-released for theatre screenings?
After the score will be recorded and the analogue version of the film is on hand copies can be made and distribution will be possible. We assume that the film is available for theatre distribution in autumn 2010. Transit Film, Munich will be in charge of the world sale.

10. Will there be a DVD release?
Naturally there will be a DVD release by the Murnau Foundation after the technical requirements (like music recording) have been met and bonus material is completed. The estimated release date will be the end of 2010.

[It was later posted that this full Windows 7 law enforcement pack was actually originally posted on the very cool newer site PublicIntelligence.net: Microsoft Windows 7/Vista Advanced Forensics Guides for Law Enforcement | Public Intelligence ]

In a continuation of the excitement around Microsoft's confidential Law Enforcement guide hitting Cryptome.org, now several more Law Enforcement Sensitive PDFs about Windows 7 have been posted, including a lot of detailed information about examining BitLocker drive encryption and potentially cracking it: "We can also see the Recovery Key ID number" and a series of hex addresses, it says (win7-bit-spy.pdf p 67).

With all the guides Cryptome has posted for PayPal, MySpace, AOL, SKype, Yahoo! & others, one can certainly get a clearer picture of implementations of government demands, but also these training manuals created by the companies clearly illuminate their own intent. Also, who else has had this information? Isn't it deceptive marketing to peddle products with such backdoors or intended weaknesses?

Dear Ms. Camilien,

Suggested readings prior to taking on the far too glib topicality of Cryptome, Wikileaks and cybermilitantism:

National Security Archive: http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/

Electronic Freedom Foundation: http://www.eff.org

Federation of American Scientists and Secrecy News: http://www.fas.org

http://www.fas.org/blog/secrecy/

The Memory Hole: http://www.thememoryhole.org/

And many similar initiatives in other countries.

Then, properly armored against misbehavior, ponder risk:

Jim Bell's "Assassination Politics:" http://cryptome.org/jya/ap.htm

Jim Bell's Trial and Conviction Files: http://cryptome.org/jya/jdbfiles.htm

And many of the other hundreds of challenging and highly informative web sites. Be cautious about those cited in the news too readily for they are rightly suspected of overmuch self-promotion -- pity those condemned to fund-raising treadmills.

Viddy Still from Michael Ruppert appearance in Minneapolis - moar soon

Its taking a while but I have a lot of footage from Michael Ruppert's visit to St Anthony Main for the screenings of Collapse last week...

Overall it was quite awesome, with new items of geopolitics and a lot of jokes.22768_529017886945_19401097_31310269_5934754_n.jpg

Plus the lighting looks like the movie which is neat :)

Standby on that one, I think I will make several short clips on the various subjects (9-11, Wellstone, debt, get ready now, the Fed & banking, geopolitics & Iran etc.) Ruppert and St Anthony Main, Bluemark Films & Mn Film Arts were all gracious enough to let me throw this together @ the very last second!

Need moar time for viddys!

Bad time for Asian plots! Iran busts Jundullah ringleader Rigi; Turkish Ergenekon arrested; Greek bonds; Judge: Welcome to the Fishbowl & MOAR

Quick hits for the fans of stuff & things. Welcome to the Fishbowl says a sad federal judge upon the abandonment of the 4th Amendment. Alex Kozinski in the 9th Circuit has some integrity... via Reason:

This is an extraordinary case: Our court approves, without blinking, a police sweep of a person’s home without a warrant, without probable cause, without reasonable suspicion and without exigency—in other words, with nothing at all to support the entry except the curiosity police always have about what they might find if they go rummaging around a suspect’s home. Once inside, the police managed to turn up a gun “in plain view”—stuck between two cushions of the living room couch—and we reward them by upholding the search.

Did I mention that this was an entry into somebody’s home, the place where the protections of the Fourth Amendment are supposedly at their zenith?…

The opinion misapplies Supreme Court precedent, conflicts with our own case law and is contrary to the great weight of authority in the other circuits. It is also the only case I know of, in any jurisdiction covered by the Fourth Amendment, where invasion of the home has been approved based on no showing whatsoever. Nada. Gar nichts. Rien du tout. Bupkes.

Whatever may have been left of the Fourth Amendment after [United States v. Black] is now gone. The evisceration of this crucial constitutional protector of the sanctity and privacy of what Americans consider their castles is pretty much complete. Welcome to the fish bowl.

Meahwhile.... The dumb ban on short selling should increase fake puffing up of the market nicely.

First off Iran and Pakistan cooperated to grab Abdolmalek Rigi, leader of the shady terrorist/militant ring Jundullah, which seems to have been an American (and possibly Indian &/or Israeli) supported Baluchi militant ring, the cats-paw for Chalabi-like gooning around. Wayne Madsen (waynemadsenreport.com) claimed Rigi was around on shady American bases and got snagged in a clever ISI-Iran op, forcing his plane to land in Dubai. Nice!

REUTERS: ANALYSIS - Rigi arrest may show easing Afghan regional tensions

On the flip side is Ergenekon, which is a humorous Turkish establishment conspiracy of secular ultranationalists perpetually plotting against the Islamists in that unique post-Byzantine way. A ton of people just got arrested and it's all really quite awesome.

Natural Health crackdown is coming for your vitamins and McCains trying to make it happen. So that we can be all forcefed cornsyrup or something. Aloe Vera FDA Crackdown:: let's learn!

There are over 300 aloe vera species on earth. But the Aloe Barbadensis Miller species has been the favorite for study in scientific literature today. The main focus in ongoing research is a group of polysaccharides that contain the healing agents known as aloe polymannans. They all have different healing potentials.

The polymannan sizes range from small to medium to large and very large. Each one has a level of healing that corresponds in magnitude with its size. It's the very large molecular weight and long chain polymannans that Dr. Danhof extracted for use on cancer patients. Injecting the large molecule extract was necessary because it is very difficult to absorb through the digestive system.

Another aspect of these polymannans, especially the larger ones, is their capacity for organizing the immune system. These polymannans provide a detection capacity for cells to determine exactly what is needed for various pathogenic invaders. Without them, the cells are shooting wildly in the dark, and that can lead to damaging cytotoxic autoimmune responses.

From researcher Dr. Ivan Danhof: "The very large molecules are immune modulating, which have a powerful healing effect on AIDS, cancer and many different immune system disorders. It is also this large molecule that causes the body to produce a natural chemical, tumor necrosis factors, which functions to shut off the blood supply to tumors."

Gerald Posner quits over plagiarism! Olympics Indymedia repression; 1001 Club, Pilgrims Society & Le Cercle; sovereign debt crisis; Ron Paul on Tea Party corporatist/neocon vanguards

Here's a good one: Gerald Posner was a convenient weathervane for conspiracy coverups, much as Howard Fineman is a convenient weathervane for Safe Establishment Thinking. You can just look for Fineman and Posner for the exact line the mockingbirds are supposed to push. Everyone else seems to water the Koolaid down more than these guys.

Posner taunts 9-11 people, JFK people, etc., but it turns out he can't say jack about Miami sleaze without plagiarizing from the Miami Herald. Author quits Daily Beast after plagiarism claims:

MIAMI (AP) - A Miami Beach-based author of several best-selling books has resigned from his job as chief investigative reporter for the Internet news site The Daily Beast following allegations of plagiarism.

Gerald Posner announced the resignation on his own Web site this week.

Last week, a writer for Slate.com reported that there were several instances in which Posner took material from Miami Herald articles without attribution.

Posner wrote on his Web site that he "inadvertently" copied the passages into master files and that he "lost sight" that the material belonged to a published source.

Posner is the author of "Case Closed," a book about the John F. Kennedy assassination, and more recently, "Miami Babylon," a history of Miami Beach.

Hilarious! CASE CLOSED, SUCKA!!

Here are quick notes on 2010 Olympics resistance: US/Canadian joint homeland security suppression of Indymedia journalists for controversial, widely opposed 2010 Olympics | Twin Cities Indymedia

Reminding us of the Olympics' nationalist/fascist roots, as the carefully stage-managed 2010 Olympics gets underway in Vancouver, around a billion dollars have been expended on security theater measures. While Canadian authorities want to encourage people to attend the Olympics, Canadian border and customs officials (Canadian Border Services Agencies) have teamed up to suppress the movement of Indymedia and other independent media reporters into Canada.

Anti-Olympic organizers point out the International Olympic Committee is a corrupt globalist institution parallel with the WTO, IMF and other organizations that funnel public money into private hands. Police repression, budget-busting graft, and gentrification/displacement are the three major features of the Olympics wherever they go, as noted by sports writer Dave Zirin (EdgeofSports.com) interviewed on Submedia.tv. After hundreds of millions of dollars in cost overruns leading to massive austerity measures including teacher layoffs in Vancouver, a poll estimated forty percent of BC residents support anti-Olympic protests. (Zirin in SI: People dreading Games)

The deeply corrupt US Department of Homeland Security has also been hassling indy reporters denied entry overland into Canada. Indy journalists John Weston Osburn (Interview), Dawn Zuppelli and Ted Forsyth from Rochester NY IMC, and Martin Macias Jr. have all been harassed. Osburn was refused entry into Canada and abused by DHS; Macias was deported, then treated abusively by the DHS lunatics controlling entry on the Canadian border.

There has been plenty of fodder for independent journalists to cover, as US & Canadian authorities gear up yet another 'live exercise' style mega-security psychological operation, featuring 'Medium' Range Acoustic Device sound cannon (MRAD, similar to the G20 LRAD), and the usual inept police attempts at false-flag provocateur and infiltration operations.

BONUS POINTS FOR THE 1001 CLUB / WORLD WILDLIFE FUND ABSURD EUROTRASH CONSPIRACY COMPLEX!!!11!

For all the LOLS: meet 1001 Club, Pilgrims Society & Le Cercle!!!

Everyone will be just delighted to learn about the Pilgrims Society and the 1001 Club. These are each worth their own posts, as they are the largest quasi-European elite conspiracy circles that [almost] no one's ever heard of! What fun! :-)

The Institute for the Study of Globalization and Covert Politics briefly went offline and it's a fantastic damn site so I'm glad it's back! Amazing files, precisely done, on the huge Belgian pedophile conspiracy (Beyond Dutroux) as well as three critical European-oriented extremely low-profile elite groups -- with very Bilderberg-like stylings.

The 1001 Club is full of Iran-Contra bankers [Yeaa Robert Vesco!], Nazi barons [Thyssen] and Bin Ladens. It's fricking awesome, the secret uber sketchy inner sanctum for a ton of nasty people. And its merely Prince Bernhard's inner ring for the World Wildlife Fund, which turns out to be a globalist front to seize control of vast strategic resources, especially in Africa. Kind of a superstructure for the international elite to stage repression campaigns, a totally greenwashed front for DeBeers / neo-Rhodesian mercenaries and resource extraction families. Good times! Have a LOL with 1001 Club membership list - Institute for the Study of Globalization and Covert Politics

Le Cercle - Institute for the Study of Globalization and Covert Politics - "Formed in the Fifties... One of the most influential, secretive, and, it goes without saying, exclusive political clubs in the West... One member contacted by this newspaper said he could not talk about it "even off, off the record". Another simply put the phone down... The source of its funding is a mystery..."

Pilgrims Society - Institute for the Study of Globalization and Covert Politics - conservative social core of the Anglo-American establishment. Including! Pilgrims Society membership list - June 29, 1997, The Independent, 'Aitken dropped by the Right's secret club', one of the very few mainstream reports on Le Cercle.

The biggest scandal in world history; WANTAGATE, Leo Wanta, the post-Soviet trillions and lots of tangled disinfo from shady operatives (or not)

Draft conspiracy post note - this rough draft story lacks links but I want to get it up anyways... Have fun everyone!

UPDATE: Hi to everyone from http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Leo_Wanta/ - keep it up :)

   

This guy, Leo Wanta / Lee Wanta / Ambassador Leo Wanta, could be the key to the biggest financial conspiracy of all time. Or maybe it's a huge thing of hot air.

It seems we can all agree Wanta was a buddy of Ronald Reagan, and a financial intelligence operative who performed some maneuvers which helped bring about the financial collapse of the Soviet Union. I think everyone agrees on this. Wanta was written about some years back in Claire Sterling's "Thieves' World: The Threat of the New Global Network of Organized Crime (1994)."

Wanta got incarcerated in Wisconsin on the premise of some bizarre tax thing for a while, and apparently he got sympathetic help from a UK finance/conspiracy journalist, Christopher Story (WorldReports.org), who loaned him some skrilla to post bail, which Wanta then welched on.

Things get murkier from here. The storyline is that Wanta somehow controls the 'winnings' of bringing down the Soviet Union thru currency operations. The idea is that Wanta is the trustee or custodian of trillions of dollars leftover from 'winning the Cold War'. This pile of cash, which really ought to go to the US Treasury methinks, has attracted the Usual Suspects into stealing and otherwise manipulating the money. The Clintons and the Bushes, and associated operatives, all want to make off with the money, or use it as collateral to get other financial instruments going.

Also, Wanta, as an Office of Naval Intelligence operative, was apparently friends with Michael Delmart Vreeland, an ONI operative who most infamously was arrested in Canada before 9/11 and tipped off his captors that Pentagon & World Trade Center attacks were on the way. [Let one happen, stop the rest..] Vreeland's bizarre story, which involved allegations that the Russians and Saddam Hussein were involved somehow, became the basis for a few chapters in Michael Ruppert's Crossing The Rubicon. (Vreeland seems very much like Richard Case Nagell, the "Man Who Knew Too Much" in the JFK assassination, and put himself under custody just prior to that shady staged event. The Vreeland stuff is a tangent right now tho :)

So we come to a strange idea of WANTAGATE that is not widely reported: the resolution of huge sums of money behind the scenes. Christopher Story claims, roughly, that a financial arrangement known as 'the settlements' would bring this huge amount of money back onto the balance sheets of the US Treasury, but sneeky dudes like Geithner, Bushes, Clintons, etc., want to try to keep the shadow money moving and use it to rebuild the great fraudulent derivatives scheme.

At this point, Story claims that somehow (how the media, even US underground media, doesn't catch onto this, I don't get at all) that the US Treasury is under a lien, the World Court and these INTERPOL forces are basically cleaning house, which was why INTERPOL got its privileges boosted from Obama's Executive Order in December.

A whole galaxy of confusing actors and disinfo agents are around this. It gets right around to some low profile characters going back to the Clinton years and Iran-Contra/BCCI. Story introduces the idea that 'DVD' is a secret Nazi black intelligence agency in Germany, the descendant of the CIA-sponsored Gehlen Organization after WWII. WIkipedia: "He also claims that former British Prime Minister Edward Heath was "recruited by the Nazis before the war" and was an agent of the "the secret Nazi strategic continuum since exposed as Deutsche Verteidigungs Dienst (DVD), Dachau."

Story says that Kissinger and HW Bush are part of the secret German agenda (as well as Wanta), and if we look back to more old-skewl Nazi links, the role of Skull and Bones as a Germanic order that illustrates how closely intertwined Eastern families are with the Nazis... Nazis of course just being a right-dialectic wing of the Illuminati agenda...

Story used to be cool with Wanta but is now against him. Story posted the texts of documents indicating that Thomas Heneghan acted as Wanta's financial agent.

Thomas Heneghan is a self proclaimed intelligence expert, who actually at one point jacked my Sibel Edmonds image off the site, blogs on Myspace in a fairly odd way. Heneghan seems to be allied with Tom Flocco and Stew Webb, who was something of a whistleblower on BCCI/Iran-Contra and other weird Clinton banking scam things. Pretty sure it was Webb who did the most awesome flowchart of Clinton/Bush mega-conspiracy. He also writes on FBI creeps (Tim White, Jeff Fisher seem uber creepy members of the mythical FBI Division Five). Somehow satellites become involved with votefraud... Heneghan is really a weird one, part of a certain knot in the fabric.

Eva Teleki. Story says she is part of the evil German operation. She is like some minion sent around by the Bush family to open accounts or something. Best name in the scheme.

CASPER: Casper (pseudonym) seems to be a sort of stock market huckster with intelligence connections. Story talks a ton of smack about Casper and Casper kind of is like 'you don't know whats up over here and also this particular odd loan was not a CIA ponzi scheme.' Casper is part of an ongoing mess posted at the oft-updated FourWinds website.

Sorcha Faal: While seeming to be a woman, Sorcha Faal seems to actually be a Catholic intelligence guy in Virginia. Faal seems to post something around provocative/subversive tone but this would seem to be CIA gatekeeping of the fringe. Or not. But Faal seems to have annoyed people widely.http://whatdoesitmean.com/.

Story wrote:
In this connection we need to reiterate that anonymous, unprovenanced reports by a fictitious source calling itself Sorcha Faal and purporting to be derived from the Kremlin, is actually a diversionary disinformation operation perpetrated by an Irishman, S. L. O’Huallachain and by Commander J. Forrest Sharpe, of Light in the Darkness Publications, Vienna, VA, located, as we recently pointed out, deep in US intelligence communitysville, according to our sources.

RumorMillNews.com - (Check this post) likes to post around sides of this issue but also seems to attract flowz of the big disinfo. Hard to say what the role is but has been around for a long time. Story is pissed with them (he doesn't seem to like conspiracy sites and thinks a lot of them are carrying 'diversionary claptrap.' Fair enough.) http://rumormillnews.com/

Mysterious Wanta items

Anything within about 2 hops of Leo Wanta turns into a lot of smudgy faxes and strange narrative chunks. These could be red herrings but they reflect the texture of what's going around - these faxes are one 'stillpoint' version. Story claimed stillpoint was a plan to crash America, but the other guys said it was nothing of the sort. And this appeared thru Heneghan...

The Arctic Beacon: some people regarded as a first-generation CIA disinfo website, or used for limited hangouts, and there quite is a lot of Wanta stuff that's come thru there. This may be an unfair characterization of Greg Syzmanski who is involved with GCN Radio Network (Genesis Communications Network - The Alex Jones & other quirky stuff radio net). See http://www.google.com/search?q=arctic+beacon+leo+wanta for hits. Related Syzmanski describes his version of the Wanta story, which makes Bush2 out to be the bad guy: http://www.articlecity.com/articles/politics_and_government/article_420.shtml

Four Winds: big arguments about it all posted a lot here http://www.fourwinds10.com/

I thought this Wanta article was super funny, by Marilyn Barnewall, http://newswithviews.com/Barnewall/marilyn125.htm

GodlikeProductions is a chill forum, they hashed over Sorcha Faal vs Story http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message728540/pg1

By far the best discussion thread (at least the longest) about what in the hell this adds up to was @ The Unhived Mind, which appears to be mainly about anti-DeepCatholicism (i.e. Templars, the weird Legatius group, Vatican ops, etc) . http://z10.invisionfree.com/The_Unhived_Mind_II/index.php?showtopic=2134...

that's one heckuva thread.

Anyway this is only a rough roundup of some major factors, but should lead the way to where the discussions and axes of new exposures and arguments might be around Leo Wanta, the multi trillion dollar incarcerated German/Reagan financial operative, who ended up with the money that "won" the Cold War. Before he got thrown in jail in Wisconsin. :-/

New Video! Robert Erickson, Tea Party prankster, spoofs movie trailer

This was a fun project to work on. TIP! Combine the old OSX Mp3 player Audion with the Wiretap outgoing-sound recorder by Ambrosia, and you can strip the vocals or VoiceOver off anything to make excellent Fair Use satire from pompous conservative videos!! I found that tip on a random forum, I think it was MacFixIt.com.

Minneapolis, MN - February 9th, 2010 - At the first convention of the right-wing Tea Party movement this weekend, Sarah Palin called for "revolution," and a documentary about the movement's rising has recently been released. The trailer for "Tea Party" allowed conservatives, who are hosting viewing parties across the nation, to relive the first year of the movement.

But meanwhile, Tea Party Prankster Robert Erickson, whose speech after infiltrating last November's Tea Party Against Amnesty in St. Paul drew national attention, has now released a trailer of his own.

“The original Tea Party trailer was too good to pass up on, so I used it as an opportunity to parody the outrageous rhetoric of the right-wing. We call on all people of conscience to take a stand against the dehumanizing tactics perpetrated by real criminals like Joe Arpaio and ICE,” explained Robert Erickson. Erickson is organizing a “Back to Europe” movement planned for the spring.

Along with the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action coalition (MIRAc), he is hoping to inspire a national day of action at Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) centers across the country, an event they have some experience in. Last November in Bloomington, MN, Erickson, along with dozens of companions and supporters, turned themselves in for self-deportation in orange jumpsuits. They called out the hypocrisy of ICE, which routinely deports immigrants of color while allowing European immigrants to live free. ICE declined to carry out the attempted self-deportation.
