I doubt two parts: 1. often good, well-meaning people 2. honestly believe that they know best I think that some groups involved with the 9-11 tragedy knew perfectly that this was a secure way of raping the minds w/o much resistance. It would be interesting to check the groups that have been studying mind manipulation and mind control methods, either corporations or governmental. Notice that I say "involved", i.e., no reference to cause or consequence. A safe way to determine links when cunningness is involved is to look for benefitted parties. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
