$2.6 Trillion Missing from Pentagon Prior to 9/11

The story above, presently linked at ANU.ORG (thanx, Don!), is one of the most mind-bending ever ever ever. You who have patience for deciphering bureaucrateze, please inform us to exactly how this is possible. Has this mountain of moola disappeared, e.g. been heisted by sticky-fingered bureacrats and their cronies, or is it a matter of bookkeeping "mistakes" that can theoretically be worked out? This is the kind of thing that we get laughed at for asserting until people have to face the fact that it's reported by the fedgov itself. But surely, anybody who brushes up against this story can't have the same faith in fedgov that it did before.


The saddest reality is that even this stunner won't faze the yahoos, jingoists and babbits making up most of red-zone Amurrica. Since it's reported at the Nationalist Times site and notmade thedin of prime-time network news for 2 years as it should be, most will miss it and those who don't will quickly wipe it from their mental Etch-a-Sketch.

Testimony before the House Appropriations Committee: Fiscal Year 2002 Defense Budget Request
As Given by Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Hugh Shelton, and Comptroller Dov Zakheim,
Rayburn House Office Building, Washington, DC, Monday, July 16, 2001.

SEC. RUMSFELD: Mr. Congressman, thank you very much. Your question is, of course, right at the heart of an enormously important issue for the Department of Defense. We have a panel in the Quadrennial Defense Review on this subject. We have met with it twice in the last two weeks. We're obviously going to have to meet with it again. It is a big, broad, complicated subject.

As you know, the Department of Defense really is not in charge of its civilian workforce, in a certain sense. It's the OPM, or Office of Personnel management, I guess. There are all kinds of long- standing rules and regulations about what you can do and what you can't do. I know Dr. Zakheim's been trying to hire CPAs because the financial systems of the department are so snarled up that we can't account for some $2.6 trillion in transactions that exist, if that's believable. And yet we're told that we can't hire CPAs to help untangle it in many respects.

Where did this enormous sum of money go....prior to 9/11, under the Pentagon comptroller Dr. (and Rabbi) Dov Zakheim? WHY HAS THERE BEEN NO INVESTIGATION, AND NO ACCOUNTABILITY ON ZAKHEIM'S ZIONIST HEAD? THIS IS ENOUGH MONEY TO FINANCE AND ARM A MILITARY FIFTH COLUMN, AND THEIR "NEW..CATALYZING EVENTS", LARGER THAN DEFENSE BUDGETS OF MOST COUNTRIES--COMBINED!! Oy veh!

Ironically, he resigned quietly on April 15, 2004 (Federal Reserve Zionist Confiscation Day), and has joined another Zionist "outsourced" Pentagon firm called Booz Hamilton, where ex-CIA chief Woolsey also resides, living on taxpayer's blood and sweat, that specializes in "war game" consulting and scenarios--i.e. 9/11 Act II soon to come."

I think most people have reached the point where this kind of stuff is considered normal and expected; something like the rise and setting of the Sun.


By the way, was there ever a plausible reason given for the collapse of Building 7, which was not hit, on 9/11?

[Scronx]

So glad you reminded us.WTC 7,"although damaged slightly by falling rubble, stood for about six hours on September11th, then around 5p.m. it suddenly fell. No official explanation for this has ever been given. This building was completely destroyed, and came down in the manner of a controlled demolition."

But there's no conspiracy going on -- right, Womack?

[Wolfram]

This reminds me of something else…
<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
Around two weeks or so prior to 9/11, there were exceptionally heavy short-sales of the stock of the airlines and insurance companies involved. The last I ever heard, the Securities and Exchange Commission was (supposedly) looking into all this, but so far as I know, nothing further was published.

Obviously, there were people who knew something was in the works; the SEC should have been able, through the records of the various brokerage firms involved, to identify the insiders, but it’s still a mystery.
Another cover-up? Or do I also have a suspicious nature?

[Scronx]

Wolfram, you do have a suspicious nature, and for that reasonI question whether you belong in this forum. Despite all the evidence you range to the effect that we're been suckered, hoodwinked, stultified and plundered by our politicians, it's INSENSITIVE for you to imply this.


Our President isn't perfect, but he is the President and we need to respect and support him -- certainly as long as long as we're at war.


Haw, haw, guffaw, snicker, chortle, yeah, right! smileys/smiley36.gif

[Wolfram]

Yes, I guess I'm becoming paranoid, indeed.


Beginning about Labor Day 2002--six months or so before "shock and awe," I had the impression that our fearless leader, GWB, was dragging in a case for war, literally by the hair.


I should have known he would never lie to us, now would he?

Welcome to Club Fed


The closest thing to a lifetime sinecure in America is a federal government job, and now it turns out that it's also a very lucrative way to make a living.


New data from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis confirm that the average federal civilian worker earns $106,579 a year in total compensation, or twice the $53,289 in wages and benefits for the typical private worker. This federal pay premium costs taxpayers big bucks because Uncle Sam's annual payroll is now $200 billion a year. No wonder that, with a per capita income of $46,782 a year, Washington, D.C. is the fourth richest among the nation's 360 metropolitan areas.


And this pay disparity keeps widening. The Cato Institute's Chris Edwards tracks government compensation, and he finds that in 1950 the average federal bureaucrat received $1.19 for every dollar that a private employee earned. By 1990 that ratio had risen to $1.51 and is now $2. In 2005 federal wages rose 5.8% compared to 3.3% in the private sector.


.............As for performance, Mr. Edwards reports that only one in 5,000 federal non-defense employees is fired for cause each year. One federal manager recently told us of an administrative assistant who missed work "about half the time" thanks to an assortment of ailments, sick children and funerals for a mother who died on three separate occasions. When the agency heads finally fired her, they were slapped with an anti-discrimination lawsuit and the half-time worker pulling down a full-time salary was reinstated....................

Even after everything we've been this is astounding. Never mind the two or three trillion the Fed has thrown out the window since the crisis started last year, nine trillion more can't be accounted for in the same period!

There Are No Words To Describe The Following Part II</span>

Isn't it wonderful being a high-ranking fedgovnik? When questioned, you merely have to keep changing the subject or stating that you don't know. That's all! Oh, be nice to the pretty lady, Mr. inquisitor.

The gentleman is former prosecutor House Democrat Alan Grayson; the
airhead with the blank stare is Elizabeth Coleman, Inspector General of
the Federal Reserve. The bottom line is that the fedgov can obviously produce whatever trillions it wants at any time. Since this phenomenon went public with the start of the "war" on "terror", everybody in the country knows the fedgov only exists to help the rich get richer -- because it could have used all that imaginary loot to pay off every mortgage (if not every debt) in the country. </span>
