Rant for august 9
In this show the past few months we've been barely tapping into
the motherlode of evidence that 9/11 was a false flag operation
carried out by a network of terrorist traitors in our own government
and our so-called "allies" in order to further their political agenda.
Our own version of the "reichstag fire" with many precedents dating
back decades, including the oklahoma city bombing in 1995. For
those of you who are still confined to the sandbox constructed for
us by the powers that be, time is running out for you to avail
yourself of the evidence. The introduction of the internet opened
a window on this government and our country's history which will
soon be closing due to business agreements such as verizon's intention
to prioritize internet traffic in accordance with a web site's
ability to pay for the privilege. Soon the internet will be just
another clone of the disasterous mainstream media in this country.
The psychological incentives to accept the official story of 9/11
and the essential integrity and benevolence of the federal government
are certainly powerful, but unfortunately willful blindness is
likely to become a serious liability to our personal safety at some
point. After the next false flag event, perhaps to usher in a war
with iran, pointing out the emperors new clothes will almost certainly
become a criminal offense in this country. But our blindness became
a liability to the so-called third world many years ago. Let me
read a passage from page 2 of the new york times of january 7, 1979,
from an article by seymour hersh.
http://chss.montclair.edu/english/furr/hershciairan.html
Headline: "Ex-analyst says CIA rejected warning on Shah"
A former Iran analyst for the central intelligence agency said
yesterday that his reports characterizing Shah Pahlevi as thirsty
for power and a megalomaniac were repeatedly rejected by the agency
as being contrary to official US policy.
Jesse Leaf said in an interview that for five years had had been
the chief CIA analyst on Iran before resigning from the agency in
1973.... A spokesman for the CIA confirmed that Mr. Leaf had been
an employee there but said, "We will not discuss former employees."
Mr. Leaf also said in the interview that he and his colleagues knew
of the torture of Iranian dissenters by Savak, the Iranian secret
police set up during the late 1950's by the Shah with help from the
CIA. Furthermore, Mr. Leaf said, a senior CIA official was involved
in instructing officials in the Savak on torture techniques, although
Mr. Leaf said that to his knowledge no americans did any of the
torturing. The CIA's torture seminars, Mr. Leaf said, "were based
on German torture techniques from World War II."
The Shah himself was "one of our sources" of information, Mr. Leaf
said. "He was a regular contact for a case officer."
Although the Iranian use of torture was widely known inside the
agency, Mr. Leaf said, he knew of no Americans who admitted that
they witnessed such treatment. "I do remember seeing and being told
of people who were there seeing the rooms and being told of torture.
And I know that the torture rooms were toured and it was all paid
for by the USA."
------------
This is only the tiniest fraction of the ongoing criminality and
corruption which is readily apparent from the smallest investment
of time on the network. It was one thing to be led around like
blind sheep before the network became available. It is quite another
to refuse to investigate these matters now that you can do so from
the comfort of your living room. Time is running out for we the
people to rescue our legacy from the judgement of history. We will
either be worthy heirs to the founders of this country, or we will
be hated and reviled like the germans after WWII, and our own
children will be sitting on the jury.
Please note that I'm not talking about revolution here: I'm talking
about simply upholding the rule of law, of honoring the constitution
and the centuries of sacrifice and wisdom demonstrated by our
ancestors on our behalf, of not being lazy hypocrites, of caring
enough about our own children's future that we at least make an
effort to raise a few fingers in their defense. There will never
be another window of opportunity such as the free internet. The
time is now to decide whether you are truely worthy of american
citizenship or not.
Carrying around signs saying that war is not the answer just doesn't
cut it any more. The enemy is among us, but they are not hidden.
By their fruits you will know them.
On this show we have consciously utilized obstetrical abuse and
male infant circumcision as a psychological wedge to try to open
people's minds to the magnitude of the crimes being committed against
the american people. Perhaps such medical misfeasance is only a
manifestation of corruption, but its social and political implications
and utility as an instrument of human degradation and social control
should be readily apparent. It's as if the mythical al qaeda had
somehow taken over the american medical establishment decades ago.
But who among us would even know of such things without the free
internet?

"In Haig's presence, Kissinger referred pointedly to military men as 'dumb, stupid animals to be used' as pawns for foreign policy."
"the powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basle, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank, in the hands of men like Montagu Norman of the Bank of England, Benjamin Strong of the New York Federal Reserve Bank, Charles Rist of the Bank of France, and Hjalmar Schacht of the Reichsbank, sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world."

July 19 notes
A few weeks ago on thought crime radio I interviewed Jane Graham,
a survivor of the bombing of the murrah federal building in oklahoma
city in 1995. I played a collection of local OKC tv news bulletins
from that day which clearly showed that at least 3 military-grade
bombs had been placed in the basement of the building, two of which
were duds later removed by the police under the gaze of the local
tv news cameras and broadcast for all to see. In other words,
Timothy McVeigh's fertilizer truck bomb was a decoy for the real
explosives which destroyed the building. Jane pointed out that she
had seen 3 strangers in the parking garage with bricks of black
putty and wire, pointing to locations within the garage and referring
to something which Jane called "plans". Unfortunately I was running
around the studio trying to fix a phone problem and missed an
opportunity to elucidate what she meant by the word plans, but in
other interviews which you can find on video.google.com if you
search for "jane graham" you can find that she's talking about
blueprints.
You can also see the tv news broadcasts for
yourself by going to video.google.com and searching for the 3 words
"okc bombing rare". It should also be noted that Danny Coulson,
a former high level official at the FBI called for a grand jury
investigation in 2007, stating that there were "very strong indicators"
that other people were involved.
While you're at it you can search for "WTC
bombing rare" and listen to dan rather report that the explosives
used in the world trade center bombing in 1993, which killed 6
people, were supplied by an FBI informant at the specific direction
of his FBI handler, over the informant's own objections.
In other words the OKC bombing, which murdered 168 innocents,
including 19 children under the age of 6, and the WTC bombing, which
killed 6 people, were false flag operations which helped push through
clinton's "anti-terrorism and effective death penalty act" and
ushered in the bright shiny new replacement for the cold war: the
war on terror, of which 9/11 is the centerpiece.
Interestingly, a number of high level government officials have openly
proclaimed the usefulness of a new terrorist attack in propping up
public support for sitting presidents, including both bush and obama
in recent years. Most recently robert shapiro, a former clinton
commerce dept undersecretary, last week told the financial times
that
"The bottom line here is that Americans don't believe in President
Obama's leadership," said Shapiro, adding, "He has to find some way
between now and November of demonstrating that he is a leader who
can command confidence and, short of a 9/11 event or an Oklahoma
City bombing, I can't think of how he could do that."

Likewise Zbigiew Brzenski gave testimony to the senate foreign
relations committe in 2007, outlining what amounts to a public
relations strategy for mounting a military assault on iran by
blaming US failures in iraq on iranian interference. He stated:
"a plausible scenario for a military collision with Iran."
would involve "Iraqi failure to meet the benchmarks, followed
by accusations of Iranian responsibility for the failure, then by
some provocation in Iraq or a terrorist act in the US blamed on
Iran, culminating in a `defensive' US military action against Iran
that plunges a lonely America into a spreading and deepening quagmire
eventually ranging across Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan."
The original senate.gov site with this pdf document has been taken
down, but you can still find it on archive.org. I'll put the link
in the blog.

In other news, recently declassified documents show that by 1968,
the senate foreign relations committee knew that the tonkin gulf
incident, which started the money laundering operation known as the
vietnam war, had probably never actually happened and was a fabrication
of US intelligence agencies. Of course now we know that the specific
attack which led to the deaths of 58,000 american soldiers and over
3 million vietnamese soldiers and civilians, never actually happened.

Just to put all this in a more contemporary context:
The united states is currently wasting vast amounts of money,
manpower and resources on a questionable, unwinnable and already
failed war on drugs, which has decimated our families and communities
and financed the rise of organized crime and government corruption,
all in the context of repeated revelations that US federal agencies
have been involved in cocaine and heroin smuggling for years. The
war on drugs amounts to a war on the people of the united states,
a domestic destablisation campaign which simultaneously raises money
for covert operations while selectively decimating those communities
traditionally targetted by eugenicists. Eugenics is alive and well
in this world, and it uses wealth as a proxy for genetic fitness.
We are waging an endless war on iraq based on forged yellowcake
uranium documents and bush administration lies about WMD's.
Why are we still there?
We are engaged in remote controlled mass murder in afghanistan
based on the 9/11 deception which murdered 3,000 people, which the
pentagon rank and file now know was a false flag operation, according
to Alan Sabrosky, the former director of strategic studies at the
US army war college. Why are we not prosecuting the traitors and
foreign intelligence agents who committed this act?
google september eleventh revisited v.2
google 9/11 press for truth
google terror storm
And soon we will be throwing away the lives of young and patriotic
but misinformed american soldiers in a pointless war on iran which
is based in part on documents which US intelligence analysts have
already determined to be forgeries from a foreign government.
google Intelligence Found Iran Nuke Document Was Forged
Obviously if the people of the united states are to salvage a
shred of their tattered dignity or constitutionally mandated
civil rights from the psychopathocrats, what we really
need is a war on high-level treason in this country. And we can
start by demanding that congress protect whistleblowers such as
thomas drake, who did his patriotic duty by exposing treasonous
government spying without warrants on constitutionally protected
american citizens. Congress need only subpeona drake to testify
in open session, which would simultaneously reveal the truth to the
people, confer immunity on drake, and open the door to the prosecution
of the criminals who allowed it.
The treason is happening every day right under our very noses and
financed by our own tax dollars. Given that all of these wars are
based on lies, and that they will all end in pointless tragedy,
failure, massively increased public debt and a loss of national
and economic security, it follows that all of these wars are in
themselves treasonous and are being pursued for treasonous ends.
Think about it: If the consequences of an action are known, then
the intent of that action is revealed by those known consequences.
It's naive in the extreme to think that the sexually mutilated and
emotionally castrated psychopaths who have controlled US foreign
policy for decades, who have honed their criminality in countless
coups, massacres and torture sessions in the 3rd world, could
possibly forego the temptation of applying their skills in the
united states. It would be a grave mistake to think that these
people are delusional superpatriots. They are traitors. They have
a history of treason dating back to hitler and before. They control
our monetary system via the federal reserve act. And their intent
is revealed by the predictable consequences of exporting our jobs
abroad and destroying the dollar. We are now living through the
shock doctrine, people. And it was all bought and paid for by a ponzi
scheme.
google male circumcision in the usa
google white house coup
google bush grandfather hitler

It's time to start acting like adults, as though we
actually care about our children's future. There's at least one
difficult but not impossible way out: boycott federal reserve notes.
Create local currencies or forego currencies altogether. Get to
know your neighbors. Support our local farmers, we're going to
need them. And support the proposed american monetary act at
monetary.org. We are being enslaved by fear, created by the
terrorist network which has infiltrated the federal government.
And by the way if you value the access to information that the

Ongoing eugenics campaigns under color of medicine:
http://www.tranquility.net/~rwinkel/stuff/Eugenics.txt
a survivor of the bombing of the murrah federal building in oklahoma
city in 1995. I played a collection of local OKC tv news bulletins
from that day which clearly showed that at least 3 military-grade
bombs had been placed in the basement of the building, two of which
were duds later removed by the police under the gaze of the local
tv news cameras and broadcast for all to see. In other words,
Timothy McVeigh's fertilizer truck bomb was a decoy for the real
explosives which destroyed the building. Jane pointed out that she
had seen 3 strangers in the parking garage with bricks of black
putty and wire, pointing to locations within the garage and referring
to something which Jane called "plans". Unfortunately I was running
around the studio trying to fix a phone problem and missed an
opportunity to elucidate what she meant by the word plans, but in
other interviews which you can find on video.google.com if you
search for "jane graham" you can find that she's talking about
blueprints.
You can also see the tv news broadcasts for
yourself by going to video.google.com and searching for the 3 words
"okc bombing rare". It should also be noted that Danny Coulson,
a former high level official at the FBI called for a grand jury
investigation in 2007, stating that there were "very strong indicators"
that other people were involved.
While you're at it you can search for "WTC
bombing rare" and listen to dan rather report that the explosives
used in the world trade center bombing in 1993, which killed 6
people, were supplied by an FBI informant at the specific direction
of his FBI handler, over the informant's own objections.
In other words the OKC bombing, which murdered 168 innocents,
including 19 children under the age of 6, and the WTC bombing, which
killed 6 people, were false flag operations which helped push through
clinton's "anti-terrorism and effective death penalty act" and
ushered in the bright shiny new replacement for the cold war: the
war on terror, of which 9/11 is the centerpiece.
Interestingly, a number of high level government officials have openly
proclaimed the usefulness of a new terrorist attack in propping up
public support for sitting presidents, including both bush and obama
in recent years. Most recently robert shapiro, a former clinton
commerce dept undersecretary, last week told the financial times
that
"The bottom line here is that Americans don't believe in President
Obama's leadership," said Shapiro, adding, "He has to find some way
between now and November of demonstrating that he is a leader who
can command confidence and, short of a 9/11 event or an Oklahoma
City bombing, I can't think of how he could do that."

Likewise Zbigiew Brzenski gave testimony to the senate foreign
relations committe in 2007, outlining what amounts to a public
relations strategy for mounting a military assault on iran by
blaming US failures in iraq on iranian interference. He stated:
"a plausible scenario for a military collision with Iran."
would involve "Iraqi failure to meet the benchmarks, followed
by accusations of Iranian responsibility for the failure, then by
some provocation in Iraq or a terrorist act in the US blamed on
Iran, culminating in a `defensive' US military action against Iran
that plunges a lonely America into a spreading and deepening quagmire
eventually ranging across Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan."
The original senate.gov site with this pdf document has been taken
down, but you can still find it on archive.org. I'll put the link
in the blog.

In other news, recently declassified documents show that by 1968,
the senate foreign relations committee knew that the tonkin gulf
incident, which started the money laundering operation known as the
vietnam war, had probably never actually happened and was a fabrication
of US intelligence agencies. Of course now we know that the specific
attack which led to the deaths of 58,000 american soldiers and over
3 million vietnamese soldiers and civilians, never actually happened.

Just to put all this in a more contemporary context:
The united states is currently wasting vast amounts of money,
manpower and resources on a questionable, unwinnable and already
failed war on drugs, which has decimated our families and communities
and financed the rise of organized crime and government corruption,
all in the context of repeated revelations that US federal agencies
have been involved in cocaine and heroin smuggling for years. The
war on drugs amounts to a war on the people of the united states,
a domestic destablisation campaign which simultaneously raises money
for covert operations while selectively decimating those communities
traditionally targetted by eugenicists. Eugenics is alive and well
in this world, and it uses wealth as a proxy for genetic fitness.
We are waging an endless war on iraq based on forged yellowcake
uranium documents and bush administration lies about WMD's.
Why are we still there?
We are engaged in remote controlled mass murder in afghanistan
based on the 9/11 deception which murdered 3,000 people, which the
pentagon rank and file now know was a false flag operation, according
to Alan Sabrosky, the former director of strategic studies at the
US army war college. Why are we not prosecuting the traitors and
foreign intelligence agents who committed this act?
google september eleventh revisited v.2
google 9/11 press for truth
google terror storm
And soon we will be throwing away the lives of young and patriotic
but misinformed american soldiers in a pointless war on iran which
is based in part on documents which US intelligence analysts have
already determined to be forgeries from a foreign government.
google Intelligence Found Iran Nuke Document Was Forged
Obviously if the people of the united states are to salvage a
shred of their tattered dignity or constitutionally mandated
civil rights from the psychopathocrats, what we really
need is a war on high-level treason in this country. And we can
start by demanding that congress protect whistleblowers such as
thomas drake, who did his patriotic duty by exposing treasonous
government spying without warrants on constitutionally protected
american citizens. Congress need only subpeona drake to testify
in open session, which would simultaneously reveal the truth to the
people, confer immunity on drake, and open the door to the prosecution
of the criminals who allowed it.
The treason is happening every day right under our very noses and
financed by our own tax dollars. Given that all of these wars are
based on lies, and that they will all end in pointless tragedy,
failure, massively increased public debt and a loss of national
and economic security, it follows that all of these wars are in
themselves treasonous and are being pursued for treasonous ends.
Think about it: If the consequences of an action are known, then
the intent of that action is revealed by those known consequences.
It's naive in the extreme to think that the sexually mutilated and
emotionally castrated psychopaths who have controlled US foreign
policy for decades, who have honed their criminality in countless
coups, massacres and torture sessions in the 3rd world, could
possibly forego the temptation of applying their skills in the
united states. It would be a grave mistake to think that these
people are delusional superpatriots. They are traitors. They have
a history of treason dating back to hitler and before. They control
our monetary system via the federal reserve act. And their intent
is revealed by the predictable consequences of exporting our jobs
abroad and destroying the dollar. We are now living through the
shock doctrine, people. And it was all bought and paid for by a ponzi
scheme.
google male circumcision in the usa

It's time to start acting like adults, as though we
actually care about our children's future. There's at least one
difficult but not impossible way out: boycott federal reserve notes.
Create local currencies or forego currencies altogether. Get to
know your neighbors. Support our local farmers, we're going to
need them. And support the proposed american monetary act at
monetary.org. We are being enslaved by fear, created by the
terrorist network which has infiltrated the federal government.
And by the way if you value the access to information that the
internet provides to real journalists, you'd better start paying
attention to the impending assaults on internet freedom which are
being mounted by the same interests which have already done so much
to destroy this country and its founding legal framework.

James Prescott: Characteristics of Nurturant vs Non-Nurturant Cultures

Vaccines: Why Are They Lying?
Here are a few links (by no means exhaustive) giving a very brief overview of some of the major issues surrounding vaccinations. It's not intended to imply that vaccines are worthless, only that many, perhaps all vaccines appear to be dangerous to one degree or another. Weighing the risk of vaccine-induced disease against the benefit of immunity must obviously be a personal decision if freedom and human rights are to have any meaning. Those who follow the government/medical/industrial complex closely will already have a healthy distrust of most things medical.
This site discounts the thimerosal/autism link, but this table is useful. It shows that the multidose flu vaccine vials have the historical dose of mercury. And since flu shots are given annually, children who go to clinics that can't afford the single-dose vials are probably getting more mercury than ever before (which trashes one of the central establishment dogmas: that Hg has been phased out yet autism continues to rise "proves" that there is no link between the two)
And it also ignores this research:
http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1200/is_16_167/ai_n13724924/
Not to mention this problem:
http://www.ccid.org/addviruses/sv40.htm
This site only talks about sv40 but the potential for cross-species viral infection exists in all animal-incubated virus preparations. In fact some hold that HIV sprang from the same problem:
http://www.uow.edu.au/~bmartin/dissent/documents/AIDS/River/Economist.htmlAlso see the movie "The River" which interviewed witnesses who attested to the use of chimpanzees in the polio vaccine project, a central point of controversy surrounding the book "The River" which strongly supports the authors contention that HIV arose from viral recombination of SIV and polio virus in preparing polio vaccine.
And then there's this problem:
http://web.archive.org/web/20050206083518/http://www.rsm.ac.uk/new/pr126.htm
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/1998/10/27/MN52NEE.DTL

Please visit his site, Www.SupportDrFischbein.com and learn about his experience as an obstetrician fighting for women to have true informed consent and right of refusal (BIRTH CHOICES - breech, VBAC, as well as no drugs, homebirths, delayed cord clamping etc.) when birthing their babies. Check out his plan to create a new form of birth center ... a collaboration between obstetricians and midwives in a facility separate from the hospital.

Monday December 14 - Beldon Johnson
Today's show featured Beldon Johnson, co-founder of The Primal Center in 1979 and author of new novel, "Fathers and Teachers". He is a primal therapist and has worked with 100's of adults to heal their early birth and circumcision traumas.
We talked about these links:
http://www.humpjones.com/rear/entry/facial_cream_and_the_foreskin_mafia/
A U.S. Food and Drug (FDA) Committee recommended FDA approval of Dermagraft, artificial skin made from circumcised baby foreskins to treat diabetic foot ulcers, on condition that manufacturer Advanced Tissue Sciences, Inc., do a post-marketing study. NOCIRC’s attorney was given just five minutes to speak to the Committee in defense of the babies whose foreskins are cut off and marketed without their consent.

SO WHERE DOES TNS RECOVERY GET THEIR STUFF? You could ask one of their vendors....so I did. I don’t know why I’m actually putting effort into a Hump Jones article, either, but here’s the fruits of my labor:
Hi there,
Indeed it is made from proteins and other ingredients that have been found in foreskins, but we don’t think they actually get live foreskins and use them. We believe they reformulated it in a lab (like cloning).
Here is a link to a lot of information on TNS Recovery Complex, as we sell it right here on the site and the whole Skin Medica line. We offer samples of other skinmedica products with a purchase.

A commenter on the blog:
I have an uncle who received a foreskin treatment for his diabetic foot ulcer. I believe it worked for him. I understand the absurdity of foreskins getting recycled into high-dollar face cream. But somehow this all doesn’t really bother me that much. Maybe it’s because I’m a woman. I can’t imagine the foreskin harvesting industry to be that lucrative, but maybe I’m wrong. It seems to make sense to me, on a basic level, to reconstitute and re-use leftover human cells. Of course this does open a Pandora’s box regarding the ethics of cloning.
I guess I need to understand: do circumcised men feel they were cheated or exploited in some way?
THATS THE TOPIC TODAY .... DO circumcised men feel they were cheated or exploited in some way? Are any of us impacted by the experience of our birth.... csection, pulling the baby out ... or a gentle birth at home where only mother and father are touching the baby or at least there are no interventions.
And from Dr. Momma Blog:
http://drmomma.blogspot.com/2009/12/stealing-foreskins-science-of-skin.html
Now, doctors who specialize in wound management are growing skin to help people like Tomas save their limbs and extremities. Pharmaceutical and biotech companies are extracting collagen -- a protein that makes up 75 percent of skin -- from donated skin and creating grafts, or patches, that can induce a patient's own skin to grow. The donated skin can come from a variety of sources: anything from a pig's pancreas to a newborn baby's foreskin. "In some cases, we can get four football fields of skin out of one baby foreskin," said Dr. James McGuire, head of wound management at the Foot and Ankle Institute at the School of Podiatric Medicine at Temple University, in Philadelphia. "If taken care of, skin can grow and grow."

Choose well, your legacy, Dr. Susan Blank -- American Academy of Pediatrics task force on Circumcision
From INTACT AMERICA:
The AAP is actively considering whether they should recommend circumcision.
Make sure they hear our side of the debate!
Send a message to Susan Blank, chair of the circumcision task force, today.
"Very compelling."
That's how Susan Blank – who chairs the American Academy of Pediatricians' task force on circumcision – described studies of adult males in sub-Saharan Africa that suggest circumcision reduces the risk of HIV transmission.
Well, here's what we think is very compelling: circumcising babies is wrong – ethically, morally, and medically. It's shocking to think Dr. Blank and her task force are considering policy recommendations for baby boys in the United States based on misconstrued data from controversial African studies.
Send a message directly to Dr. Blank today and urge the AAP task force not to recommend circumcision. http://org2.democracyinaction.org/o/5922/t/6483/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=2318
Here's my (Janel) letter:
Dear Dr. Susan Blank and American Academy of Pediatrics,
The human baby feels and remembers everything that he or she experiences in the womb, in labor and at birth, and in the first seconds, minutes, and hours of life. The prenate feels, tastes, hears, and responds to the environment - via the mother. The human being is in a continuum of NEVER-ending brain development from conception forward, and the primal period is the foundation for the rest of life.
It is logical and scientific that during the birth process the newborn brain is not somehow miraculously selective, thus being capable of "turning off" during time in the hospital with medical caregivers and interventions. There is no mechanism that allows that -- so that medical people can do whatever they wish to a baby. The human newborn is not capable of "de-selecting" the violations of medical caregivers on his personhood. The science is clear: Your own science tells us "what fires wires" so we know the birthing and newborn brain "wires what fires" and learns, even more so outside the womb than she or he did prenatally. The newborn baby is an aware, feeling being - a fully sentient being - and the brain IS "on" while in your hands in your institution. We/You can no longer say: "the baby won't remember" and "the baby won't feel it". Circumcision is just one of the medical interventions experienced by newborns in your hands.
Circumcision is the worst human rights violation of mankind, done by mankind to mankind, wherever it is inflicted upon on a non-consenting uninformed baby, child, or third world country. The American Academy of Pediatrics is being called upon to protect and defend our babies, and to be protectors of the human rights of newborns in our society. As a society we will look back on this action against males, and we we see how it is the primary cause of violence of all kinds, but especially against women and children. We will see how "we" plundered the world's people because of it. People will wonder how we could have been so barbaric at this point in history in our human evolution. Your name will be there, Dr. Susan Blank ... either as the person who helped stop the routine, barbaric, torture of NON-CONSENTING, UNINFORMED baby boys, or the one who pushed for it; the one too blind, too bought to see the impact to every aspect of a male's life and to our society, and to our planet.
Choose well, your legacy, Dr. Susan Blank.
I am a birth trauma therapist, baby advocate, and filmmaker doing a birth film for and about fathers in birth. Part four of my film will address the impact of circumcision on the male baby disconnected from his mother, unprotected, and so unspeakably violated ... for no medical reason ... and how this plays out his entire life, including family and child abuse, sexual assault, violence, and war. On my radio show this fall I have done a series with guests who are advocates of intact males; they are doctors, psychologists, midwives, and therapists in a series this fall. I have come to believe that circumcision of our baby males is the most barbaric act of humanity. It is outrageous that female genital mutilation is seen as such, while male babies in our culture are tortured, and these tortured males lead us to war after war, while porn is number one money maker, and pedophiles are a number one concern for communities and parents. Circumcision is torture Dr. Blank, and from what I have learned there is no medical reason to do it, only political and financial gains. The research in Africa is inconclusive and even shows no decrease in AIDS for these men, while AIDS has risen for women.
I have one circumcised son, age 34, and one intact son, age 27. I was holding my son when he was circumcised. It was horrible and shocking, and I couldn't stop it. I had assumed that what I was told to be done next was humane and science based. Now, we do know that it is not. It was tragic to learn later there is no reason for it, and more tragic, as a mother, to learn the resulting outcomes for him that he has to live his whole life with. For example, the violation of the body part responsible for creating pleasure results in a lifetime of dysfunctions in sexual functioning, from minor, like premature ejaculation, excessive masturbation, and being unaware of one's partner's needs (rough because he doesn't have the part of his penis meant to communicate to his brain about pleasure), for which we now have industry after industry to "fix" to the violent crimes against women, children, and society. Men do not know what it is they are missing, and depending on other aspects of their early life and violations, to varying degrees, they go after what is missing with a vengeance; and, Dr. Blank, they go after women and children. This one act against male babies/men provides multiple industries to this country and fuels war.
I am grateful that I became aware of alternative methods of emotional and physical healing, besides the ineffective talk and drug therapy that dominates our society. I could begin to support my son to heal his soul, an apology from the one who allowed it instead of protecting him begins the healing, and he can now choose to even restore his foreskin. Even so, as a mother, I suspect I will never get over the brutality and loss that I allowed my son to experience for no reason. We know now many modalities for healing those who have been harmed, but these modalities are also diminished and vilified by your profession, after promoting the violation, for financial reasons. To embrace the healing of the trauma one has to see the violation inflicted upon helpless newborn babies.
I guarantee you the American people are wising up, and rising up, and they will continue to become a majority against circumcision. Three cultures circumcise their male children: Christian, Jewish, and Muslim. You figure it out. Do the research outside your status quo of medicine funded by drug companies, about the real reasons your professional group struggles to promote what it knows is true one minute and then is promoting it again the next. Your profession has a responsibility to tell and BE the truth, and to stop the torture of our male babies. EVERYWHERE.
Again, Circumcision is the worst human rights violation of mankind done by mankind to mankind, wherever it is inflicted upon on a non-consenting uninformed baby, child, or third world country. As a society we will look back on this action against males, and we we see how it is the primary cause of violence of all kinds, but especially against women and children, and how we plundered the world's people because of it. People will wonder how we could have been so barbaric at this point in history in our human evolution. Your name will be there, Dr. Susan Blank ... either as the person who helped stop the routine, barbaric, torture of NON-CONSENTING, UNINFORMED baby boys, or the one pushed for it; the one too blind, too bought to see the impact to every aspect of a male's life and to our society, and to our planet.
Choose well, your legacy, Dr. Blank.

www.thoughtcrimeradio.blogspot.com -- you can listen to podcasts of many professionals from many areas speaking about the impact of circumcision.
I agree with Intact America:
Your statement to ABC News that recent African studies of male circumcision are "very compelling" suggests that the American Academy of Pediatrics Task Force on Neonatal Circumcision may ignore the ethics, risks and harms of performing medically unnecessary surgery on non-consenting infant boys.
As chair of the task force, please respond to the following questions regarding your upcoming decision:
- How will the task force address the ethical problems related to performing medically unnecessary circumcision surgery on non-consenting newborn males?
- How is the task force taking into account the risks and harms of circumcision?
- Aren't circumcision trials conducted on consenting adults irrelevant to circumcising baby boys who cannot consent?
I look forward to your prompt response.

Here's Rich's feedback to Dr. Blank:
Subject: Titanic vs iceberg
Perhaps you're unaware of the growing outrage of american men and
their lovers who are discovering what was taken from them at birth,
and how it damaged them and their relationships with women, starting
with their own mothers. I assure you that regardless of your
decision on male genital mutilation, american medicine will soon
find itself trying to disown this monster which haunts the nightmares
of children and which has done so much harm to our families. The
emotional stake of "researchers" who attempt to justify what was
done to them as children has perpetuated this farce long enough.
One need only compare HIV and MGM rates between the USA and europe
to put the lie to the claim that it somehow protects against HIV.
The research demonstrating MGM's adverse impact on M->F HIV
transmission has already been done, and the mechanism by which it
acts is also known. The HIV argument will soon be added to the
long list of fraudulent rationalizations which have helped to
perpetrate this unspeakable atrocity on 6 generations of helpless
american children.
Do yourself a favor and make a stand now, so that you don't find
yourself out of a job later.
Google "frenar band" for further information.

Part four of my film will address the impact of circumcision on the male baby disconnected from his mother, unprotected, and so unspeakably violated ... for no medical reason ... and how this plays out his entire life, including family and child abuse, sexual assault, violence, and war. On my radio show this fall I have done a series with guests who are advocates of intact males; they are doctors, psychologists, midwives, and therapists in a series this fall. I have come to believe that circumcision of our baby males is the most barbaric act of humanity. It is outrageous that female genital mutilation is seen as such, while male babies in our culture are tortured, and these tortured males lead us to war after war, while porn is number one money maker, and pedophiles are a number one concern for communities and parents. Circumcision is torture Dr. Blank, and from what I have learned there is no medical reason to do it, only political and financial gains. The research in Africa is inconclusive and even shows no decrease in AIDS for these men, while AIDS has risen for women.
I have one circumcised son, age 34, and one intact son, age 27. I was holding my son when he was circumcised. It was horrible and shocking, and I couldn't stop it. I had assumed that what I was told to be done next was humane and science based. Now, we do know that it is not. It was tragic to learn later there is no reason for it, and more tragic, as a mother, to learn the resulting outcomes for him that he has to live his whole life with. For example, the violation of the body part responsible for creating pleasure results in a lifetime of dysfunctions in sexual functioning, from minor, like premature ejaculation, excessive masturbation, and being unaware of one's partner's needs (rough because he doesn't have the part of his penis meant to communicate to his brain about pleasure), for which we now have industry after industry to "fix" to the violent crimes against women, children, and society. Men do not know what it is they are missing, and depending on other aspects of their early life and violations, to varying degrees, they go after what is missing with a vengeance; and, Dr. Blank, they go after women and children. This one act against male babies/men provides multiple industries to this country and fuels war.
I am grateful that I became aware of alternative methods of emotional and physical healing, besides the ineffective talk and drug therapy that dominates our society. I could begin to support my son to heal his soul, an apology from the one who allowed it instead of protecting him begins the healing, and he can now choose to even restore his foreskin. Even so, as a mother, I suspect I will never get over the brutality and loss that I allowed my son to experience for no reason. We know now many modalities for healing those who have been harmed, but these modalities are also diminished and vilified by your profession, after promoting the violation, for financial reasons. To embrace the healing of the trauma one has to see the violation inflicted upon helpless newborn babies.
I guarantee you the American people are wising up, and rising up, and they will continue to become a majority against circumcision. Three cultures circumcise their male children: Christian, Jewish, and Muslim. You figure it out. Do the research outside your status quo of medicine funded by drug companies, about the real reasons your professional group struggles to promote what it knows is true one minute and then is promoting it again the next. Your profession has a responsibility to tell and BE the truth, and to stop the torture of our male babies. EVERYWHERE.
Again, Circumcision is the worst human rights violation of mankind done by mankind to mankind, wherever it is inflicted upon on a non-consenting uninformed baby, child, or third world country. As a society we will look back on this action against males, and we we see how it is the primary cause of violence of all kinds, but especially against women and children, and how we plundered the world's people because of it. People will wonder how we could have been so barbaric at this point in history in our human evolution. Your name will be there, Dr. Susan Blank ... either as the person who helped stop the routine, barbaric, torture of NON-CONSENTING, UNINFORMED baby boys, or the one pushed for it; the one too blind, too bought to see the impact to every aspect of a male's life and to our society, and to our planet.
Choose well, your legacy, Dr. Blank.

www.thoughtcrimeradio.blogspot.com -- you can listen to podcasts of many professionals from many areas speaking about the impact of circumcision.
I agree with Intact America:
Your statement to ABC News that recent African studies of male circumcision are "very compelling" suggests that the American Academy of Pediatrics Task Force on Neonatal Circumcision may ignore the ethics, risks and harms of performing medically unnecessary surgery on non-consenting infant boys.
As chair of the task force, please respond to the following questions regarding your upcoming decision:
- How will the task force address the ethical problems related to performing medically unnecessary circumcision surgery on non-consenting newborn males?
- How is the task force taking into account the risks and harms of circumcision?
- Aren't circumcision trials conducted on consenting adults irrelevant to circumcising baby boys who cannot consent?
I look forward to your prompt response.

Here's Rich's feedback to Dr. Blank:
Subject: Titanic vs iceberg
Perhaps you're unaware of the growing outrage of american men and
their lovers who are discovering what was taken from them at birth,
and how it damaged them and their relationships with women, starting
with their own mothers. I assure you that regardless of your
decision on male genital mutilation, american medicine will soon
find itself trying to disown this monster which haunts the nightmares
of children and which has done so much harm to our families. The
emotional stake of "researchers" who attempt to justify what was
done to them as children has perpetuated this farce long enough.
One need only compare HIV and MGM rates between the USA and europe
to put the lie to the claim that it somehow protects against HIV.
The research demonstrating MGM's adverse impact on M->F HIV
transmission has already been done, and the mechanism by which it
acts is also known. The HIV argument will soon be added to the
long list of fraudulent rationalizations which have helped to
perpetrate this unspeakable atrocity on 6 generations of helpless
american children.
Do yourself a favor and make a stand now, so that you don't find
yourself out of a job later.

Janel wrote to Marilyn, Rich, and Patricia Robinett:
So, how can we say we are more violent because of circ if there's no "proof". And humans apparently have been brutal forever ... I can't help but think the circ actually docilates men from being the fierce warriors they were. Definitely, as men have become civilized over time, uncir'd men are kinder maybe as Patricia said on the air and it's still true that circ'ing has added a whole new dimension to the brain of the modern man.
Rich:
Here's my take: MGM teaches fear and rage. The rage is suppressed. The fear causes passivity and disempowerment in the face of "authority"thus promoting mass social organization (i.e. warmaking). The rage can come to the surface either at the direction of authorities (torture etc) or in the absence of authority figures (i.e. when with friends and family). Sexual frustration, domestic difficulties and the link between sex and violence makes lovers especially vulnerable.
Marilyn Milos:
Hi Janel,
Karl Menninger said, "What we do to children, they will do to society." It's the infliction of a primal wound that affects the male throughout life. And, of course, not all circumcised males are violent, but every circumcised male is affected by his circumcision, whether he knows it or not. Sometimes, as Michel Odent has spoken about at a couple of my symposia, when excruciating pain is inflicted without the victim being able to fight or flee, the fight or flight hormones, without an outlet for expression, become destructive to the victim's own body. This is the genesis of "learned helplessness."
After Obama was elected, one Black, circumcised man said to me, "Obama must be intact. Look at his kind, gentle nature, his easy smile, his mellow demeanor. He's too relaxed a man to have been circumcised." There is a difference, too, with intact boys, who don't have the edge their circumcised brothers have. Now, I know there are other reasons for males to act out or be aggressive. Look at non-circumcising Germany; yet, we know the needs of German babies was not met. Infants were kept separate, by themselves, to cry it out... Alice Miller, of course, talks about the horrific ways in which German babies and children were raised and how it adversely affected them, how easily they became soldiers who followed orders.
According to James DeMeo and James Prescott, humans haven't always been violent. The earliest cave drawings showed peaceful societies, breastfeeding mothers, man and animal living together without harm. DeMeo claims that it was the desertification in sub-Saharan Africa that introduced hunger and then the fighting began. First, the fight was against the animals and then it was man against man. Perhaps we'll never really know what happened at the dawn of civilization, but we do know that when we birth babies peacefully and answer the needs of our children, they will thrive not just survive, and, isn't that our work, i.e., to work toward making the planet a peaceful place again by how we bring our children into the world? For, as Gandhi said, "If we are ever to have real peace, we must begin with the children."
With love and appreciation, Marilyn
Patricia:
hmm... that's interesting, janel.
i think that circumcision could go either way...
either to 'cow' the person or to enrage her/him
like an angry bull. :)
i personally do not think that humans -- men --
are created angry, violent, or withdrawn... i think
the 'personality' is made -- perhaps a carryover
from another lifetime, but you can always see
good 'reasons' why people are the way they are
from just this lifetime... .
i think this is an important discussion.
not all people will respond in the same way to 'fear'
(lack of love). but still, 'fear' (tension) will reign
in that person's life, rather than 'love' (ease)
when one is overpowered... when a person feels
powerless, they are as far from their true nature
as it is possible for them to get.
i think of the causes of trauma as anything that
overpowers another... circumcision, sexual abuse,
the birth process itself, rape, physical violence,
mental oppression, and so on. people hold the
'less than love' in their bodies and are chronically
tense.
from my humble observation, it appears that
there are three primary modes that traumatized
people will enter. they are all coping strategies for
protecting oneself from abusive 'authority figures':
1) acquiesce to authority (withdraw, hide)
2) rail against authority (attack)
3) BECOME the authority (join them)
no one who has been abused really trusts authority.
they all see authority as dangerous.
a psychologist i know here in town has done a study...
he says only 5% of the population is 'violence-prone'
or 'warmongers'... i would call 'violence-proneness'
or 'warmongering', symptoms of sociopathy.
circumcision is a violent act.
it teaches violence.
it teaches people to circumcise.
a circumcising culture is a violent culture.
people pass the violence on that was done to them.
or they bury their heads in the sand...
or they fight for the rights of children.
thank you all for fighting for children's rights.
love, patricia

Stuart Fischbein, MD
Obstetric physician from California who is a strong advocate for patient's rights to informed consent and refusal. He is a long-time supporter of midwifery care and creating partnerships with midwives. He is currently one of the few obstetricians to speak publicly and to stand up against his own professional organization on behalf of women's rights to true informed consent and choice. Recently, for allowing patients the dignity of true informed consent in his community he and his midwives are being threatened with disciplinary action. www.supportdrfischbein.blogspot.com.
Dr. Fischbein, obstetrician from northern Los Angeles area, had to cancel and Rich and I winged it. I shared some recent research that showed that mother's breast milk has stem cells in it, meaning that the mother's body CONTINUES TO BUILD the BABY'S BODY for months or years. I shared my personal experience of having a profound connection to my son who is in Afghanistan where 16 American soldiers had died that day. Our conversation zig zagged around the topic of the impact of obstetric interventions on the human being and on society. Rich's paper, Munchausen Obstetrics, link at top of page here, has many, many resources on this topic.
At t the end of the hour, with only minutes left, we had a caller who doubted what we were saying. She said she is a scholar and doesn't believe the anecdotal stories. I gave her a resource, Dr. William Emerson's site, www.EmersonBirthRx.com, but she said that's just one person. Both he and David Chamberlain, PhD are coming out with new books very soon. Dr. Chamberlain is the co-founder of the Association for Pre and Perinatal Psychology and Health, www.birthpsychology.com, founded in the mid eighties. Members are international and include physicians, nurses, psychologists, music and craniosacral therapists, and many, many others all who have done research in the area of the primal period of life. The research is there and it has been for years. Here's one from the seventies, http://www.birthpsychology.com/violence/verny.html.
Aside from the research there is just plain logic ... birth has to matter. Once one embraces how fully present we are in the womb (and before) and at birth one has to stop what they are doing to human babies. Meanwhile, DENIAL permeates every aspect of birth and consideration for the full sentience of the human baby. Why? Because to acknowledge that we are fully present at birth, one has to deal with their own birth, their primal brain imprinting, and how it has created who they are today. And, one has to deal with their own decisions or their own victimization as a woman birthing her children. THIS IS the biggest obstacle. I would bet that our caller had a cesarean, chosen or not, or something profound that happened to her giving birth. Our society doesn't acknowledge it so it doesn't provide or research options to support healing, so people deny it. Babies can't be fully aware. It can't matter what we do to them in the first moments, hours, and days of their life because then we have to deal with what we did to so many babies.
I found my old site cached on google and I am posting links to a couple of pages here. One is a newspaper article about my work in the Peoria Journal Star in October 2003.
The Baby Whisperer
The other is the testimony of the same mother featured in the article about her experience of doing therapy with her baby and me. He was born at home but had to have multiple heart surgeries in his first two weeks. A psychology professor at the local community college wrote a seething "letter to the editor" about my work. This and my response are also on this page and it includes many, many references.
A Mother's Story
With all due respect to our caller, I realized how tired of I am of having to be the one "to prove" with science my premise that we can be kinder, we can honor the mother and baby (soul) being born. The truth is that obstetric medicine isn't and hasn't been scientific based. NEVER were the drugs ever used shown to be safe prior to using on NEWBORNS. Humans, baby humans, are NON-informed, NON-consenting subjects in one long, horrid research project. Obstetric medicine is the place of manufacturing of human deficits and dysfunctions, namely the ones that create broken human connections as well as drug addiction and propensity for violence, for being a culture of people with little respect for the boundaries of others.
So, let me say, "NO, YOU prove that what is being in done in modern medicalized birth for sixty decades is NOT damaging." My guts, my heart, my logic and science tells me is it profoundly damaging.
In November of 2006 a month after my son first deployed to Iraq I began writing on a blog and I wrote 600 pages between November and May. It was my therapy as I wrote about birth, war, obstetrics and mother-child attachment. That blog is www.Hospitalbirthdebate.blogspot.com. It is full, full, full of articles with research to back our discussion.
