Mr. President Begin the Squirming Process

Benghazigate-v-Watergate
John R. Houk
© May 4, 2013

Here is an example of the Mainstream Media (MSM) holding the Obama Administration accountable for its actions: “Fox News: What happened to its Benghazi exclusive?”

So this story in the Washington Post criticizes the Fox News story for not investing in the government view of what transpired at the Islamic terrorist attack in Benghazi? Sounds like a plus and not a reason to criticize Fox News. Perhaps WaPo and others should be more interested in finding whistleblowers as Fox News has in order to shine the light on the Obama Administration rather than rest in the darkness of blanket agreement with the Obama Administration, right?

The answer from the Left is “defend Obama at all costs.”

The Conservative and Counterjihad answer is “shine the light in darkness to expose the corruption and protect the integrity of the American people and Constitutional government.”

Obama, his minions and the MSM are covering up the details leading up to the Benghazi Massacre and are covering up the details of the decisions that allowed the Massacre to take place. President Obama was asked about his knowledge of not allowing witnesses to come forward to Congress. BHO responded that he was not aware of such activity. Then in another news conference Jay Carney was asked the same thing and he echoed the President’s answer.

Such a detail will come out because lawyers have gone public about the intimidation tactics. Plausible deniability simply will not hold up forever because as the legal system works even the MSM will to begin reporting accurately. A failure to report accurately will prove to Americans that the Left leaning media is completely unreliable.

For example even WaPo was forced to print the truth that the State Departments investigators responsible for the information that made up the ARB Report are coming under scrutiny by the Inspector General Office. In essence State Department investigators under then Hillary Clinton are being investigated!

Fox News and the Hill both report that the State Department has ordered an inspector general’s review of the work of the Benghazi Accountability Review Board (ARB).

Fox News, which broke the story, reports: “The IG’s office is said by well-placed sources to be seeking to determine whether the Accountability Review Board, or ARB — led by former U.N. Ambassador Thomas Pickering and former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Adm. Mike Mullen — failed to interview key witnesses who had asked to provide their accounts of the Benghazi attacks to the panel.” The report observes, “This disclosure marks a significant turn in the ongoing Benghazi case, as it calls into question the reliability of the blue-ribbon panel that then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton convened to review the entire matter. … Read the Rest (State investigates the Benghazi investigators; By Jennifer Rubin; Washington Post; 5/3/13 9:30 am)

If WaPo grudgingly begins to report the truth about Benghazigate then the President can now officially begin squirming ala Richard Nixon’s Watergate.

Details of Benghazi Massacre Cover Up Begin to Emerge

May 4, 2013

COMMENTARY | The Weekly Standard has an explosive article that seems to document how the Obama Administration sought to mislead Congress and the public about the events that led to the deaths of four Americans in Benghazi, including a U.S. Ambassador.

The article documents how the official CIA talking points were altered in an attempt to soften the political impact of the Benghazi Massacre in advance of the 2012 elections. For example references to Al Qaeda affiliated involvement were deleted and references to an "attack" were replaced by the word "demonstration." References to jihadist surveillance of the Benghazi consulate and attacks by terrorists on other foreign interests in Libya were also expunged. The final version of the talking points suggested that the Benghazi Massacre was a spontaneous reaction to protests then going on in Cairo and not a planned attack.

All of this led to UN Ambassador Susan Rice's assertion, based on the revised talking points, on the Sunday morning talk shows, that the Benghazi Massacre was inspired by a incendiary YouTube video that denigrated that Islamic Prophet Mohammed. But when the narrative began to fall apart, the Obama administration pointed its fingers at the intelligence community, accusing it of providing false information, even though it was the administration that pressured the CIA into altering the talking points to begin with.

All of this leads to the inescapable conclusion that the Obama administration sought to cover up the true nature of the Benghazi Massacre, including the now known fact that it was a planned attack by an Al Qaeda affiliated group. Coupled with the assertions by an unidentified special operator on Fox News that, contrary to administration claims, there were military assets that were available that might have saved Ambassador Chris Stevens and his companions, Benghazi is shaping up to be a Watergate with a body count.

Also the Weekly Standard notes, "--the State Department's inspector general acknowledged that the office would be investigating the production of the Administrative Review Board report on the attacks because of concerns that investigators did not speak to a broad spectrum of individuals with knowledge of the attack and its aftermath."

The House Oversight and Government Reform committee will conduct further hearings on the matter. How high up the cover up goes, whether it involves former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton or even President Obama, has yet to be determined.

Can you tell me we are not seeing the similarities of history evolving again?

As news on the Great Cyprus Bank Robbery keep getting worse, the latest being the country’s corrupt finance minister Michael Sarris saying that as much as 80% of “large” bank deposits can be confiscated, Americans should be on the alert to copycat moves by our feral government and bankers. All the more because the American Left are applauding the theft of Cypriots’ bank savings.

Tyler Durden of ZeroHedge warns us that when bankrupt insolvent governments “run out of fingers to plug the dikes,” history shows that they fall back on a very limited playbook.

Simon Black of Sovereign Man blog has enumerated 8 steps in the playbook of bankrupt governments:

1. Direct confiscation: As Cyprus showed us, bankrupt governments are quite happy to plunder people’s bank accounts, especially if it’s a wealthy minority. Aside from bank levies, though, this also includes things like seizing retirement accounts (Argentina), increases in civil asset forfeiture (United States), and gold criminalization.

2. Taxes: Just another form of confiscation, taxation plunders the hard work and talent of the citizenry. But thanks to decades of brainwashing, it’s more socially acceptable. We’ve come to regard taxes as a ‘necessary evil,’ not realizing that … Read the Rest


It is now clear, the government of Cyprus was given two options by the IMF and the EU in which they were told that they could steal money from private bank accounts or they could leave the Eurozone all together and face total economic annihilation. This theft involves seizing the funds of all accounts over 100,000 euros, then stealing up to 40% of those funds sometime over the next few weeks, or whatever EU finance ministers decide exactly how much to steal.

I However, no accounts containing less than 100,000 euros will be impacted. This amount was not arbitrarily chosen. The 100,000 mark was chosen because all EU bank accounts are insured up to 100,000 euros. Therefore, the criminal banksters believe that they can steal anything over 100,000 euros because it is not insured.

Except for the 132 preferred insiders who got their money out of Cypress the day before the announcement of the grand banking theft, the Eurogroup finance ministers  have … Read the Rest



The stock market is on a cliff. When it falls, it will not only erase the riches on Wall Street but your hard-earned savings. It is called deflation, and it will impact all of us.

I have a pretty good idea about stock market crashes because I have experienced four of them. The first was in 1987. The second was in 1989. The third was in 2001, and the last was in 2008. The monster crash for stocks is still to come.

The fundamentals both for the banking system and the economy and our dysfunctional Federal government will not allow current record stock prices to persist.

As major stock indexes reach all-time highs, there is the disjoint between the value of equity prices and the economic realities that will eventually have to support prices.

Subject: German dominance not unintended

Sir,

Mr. Millar’s article on Germany and Europe grossly underestimates the extent to which German dominance in Europe was planned. “Might is right in politics and war” said the former German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, while the former German Foreign Secretary said “Germany should now get all that Europe and the whole world refused in two world wars – a sort of smooth hegemony over Europe”. While Hitler had said of 1930s Czechoslovakia that they had no choice about joining the Third Reich because “the points are set” so Helmut Kohl used the same metaphor when he promoted the break up of Czechoslovakia in the early 1990s.

Germany’s Euro with its headquarters in Frankfurt is crippling the social and economic fabric of Europe and unelected technocrats were imposed on both the Greeks and the Italians as their “leaders”. Germany’s ruthless treatment of Greece and Cyprus contrasts with Greece’s generous post war aid to Germany after 1945 while the leader of the German Social Democrat party said that Italian democracy had “elected two clowns”.

German Europe has broken up both Czecohoslovakia (sic) and Yugoslavia, destroyed 27 national constitutions, 27 national parliaments and 17 central banks and pursued policies of supranational bureaucratic power and anti democratic centralisation all too reminiscent of the 1930s and 1940s. We can accept that indibidual (sic) German voters did not know what their country was doing but we cannot believe their politicians were so innocent.

Yours etc

Scientists find treatment to kill every kind of cancer tumor

A potential breakthrough in the war against cancer-- a miracle drug that kills every kind of cancer tumor, has been found.

The drug works by blocking a protein that is essentially a "do not eat" signal to the body's immune system. Researchers successfully used it on mice.

Cancer cells produce an inordinate amount of the protein and trick the immune system into not destroying the harmful cells.

Researchers built an antibody that blocks the protein so that the body's immune system attacks the dangerous cells. (Scientists find treatment to kill every kind of cancer tumor; Posted: 03/28/2013; abc2news.com)

The biggest Threat to the 1st Amendment ever that can create the Transformation into a Police State!!


…

Finch teaches police and public officials around the country how to deal with self-described "sovereign citizens" like Wright. Finch and his partner, Det. Kory Flowers, have trained nearly 15,000 police and 5,000 public officials to combat sovereigns, zealots who refuse to recognize government authority in virtually any form.

Violent confrontations are rare, but the FBI says at least six police officers have been killed by sovereigns since 2000. …

…

The agency calls sovereigns — who number between 100,000 and 300,000 — a "domestic terrorist movement."

This time of year has federal authorities on alert, since a central tenet of the sovereigns movement is that its adherents believe they owe no income taxes.

Sovereigns assert that the U.S. Treasury has set up a secret money account for every American, which can be reclaimed through a bizarre set of legal filings known as redemption. They say everything from taxes to traffic tickets can be disposed of by drawing on the secret Treasury accounts through elaborate legal claims and mountains of paperwork.

Many sovereigns file invoices with police or judges, demanding hundreds of dollars an hour for time spent stopped by officers or when in court to answer charges.

…

Finch said he instructs officers to ignore paperwork other than license and registration. "Your antennae should immediately go up," he tells officers. "They refuse to recognize your authority, and that creates a dangerous situation."

…

Even nonviolent sovereigns can cause headaches through what Finch calls "paper terrorism." Some squat in foreclosed homes and file phony deeds claiming ownership, "paying" with photos of silver dollars. Sovereigns believe U.S. currency has no value but recognize precious metals as valid currency.


Editor Thought: People who given up and believe our government is corrupted beyond redemption especially under the influence of the Left may gravitate toward this Sovereign Citizen phenomenon. That does not make this extreme Right Wing individualistic ideology good for society. A nation without laws is a nation in chaos and anarchy. If the government begins to ignore the rule of law as set by the U.S. Constitution the first step is for the States to rise up Constitutionally and call for a Constitution Convention. If the government abrogates this Constitutional process by fiat then it is time for the Second Revolutionary War or the Second Civil War whatever reference is appropriate. Those that unilaterally declare themselves Sovereign Citizens are in essence rebelling against the Constitution than against a Leftist government. It is only when the Constitution becomes irrelevant to the government that American Citizens on a unified front – NOT on an anarchist counter-rule-of-law basis – through off the bonds of an unjust government just as the Founding Fathers did against British Rule back in the late 1700s.

How Bad is this ... Law Passed on same day as Boston tragedy. What’s to say that they did this so they can get out of the market without being noticed because they are getting ready for collapse??

Obama Quietly Passed Law Making Insider Trading Easier for US Politicians

…

Imagine if you were able to pass a law that would regulate your own behavior and ultimately define the consequences of that behavior. That’s what all politicians in Washington DC do on a regular basis.

When it comes to regulating their investments whilst in office, they are able to pass laws that allow them to use special foreknowledge (that only lawmakers and government regulators have) for personal gain.

It’s all about finding that golden loophole.
Once upon a time it was called “insider trading”… hardly a crime on Wall Street anymore (props to Goldman Sachs), and neither in Washington DC, or so it seems, according to the President and his legislative branch.


The Breeding of Agenda 21 comes from an Ideology that creates disease like Inbreeding does in Livestock.

We Cannot find the Solutions we need without Including all Aspects of the Higher Levels of Learning, like the Fundamental Transformation that Allan Savory has spent a Lifetime doing don’t you agree???

[Editor: I have to be honest that I do not know who Allan Savory is. Here is 20 minute video entitled “Allan Savory: How to green the world's deserts and reverse climate change” is Savory speaking on reversing Climate Change and re-greening deserts. Being one of those Climate-Change deniers I still have to listen a few times for my thumbs up or thumbs down.]


Why Didn't We hear or see these Organizations like the UN, World Bank, TEEB (The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity about page – [Editor: Here is an excerpt from “Green Transition on the Global Agenda” that provides some food for thought on TEEB:

 The turf is shifting again to investing in biomimicry companies such as those described by Dr. Gunter Pauli in his Blue Economy, Janine Benyus' Biomimicry Institute, Dr. John Todd's Living Machines, Dr. Allan Savory and the Savory Institute, and now showcased in the management programs of Tomorrow's Company. All these companies design their products with nature, such as Charles River whose medical clotting agent is harvested sustainably from horseshoe crabs (WIRED August 2011). 

This nature-inspired leading edge of the green transition is part of the energy-efficiency revolution now sweeping the global economy, notably in Brazil's Sustentar 2011. To see the huge returns to these business models requires looking beyond economic calculations of "efficiency" (which are obscured by rigged markets and false prices) to calculating thermodynamic efficiency in the real world: EROEI (energy return on energy investment). Such scientific calculations of actual efficiency show, for example, that extracting oil from tar sands is an energy-loser, as is most ethanol.

The new textbook for asset managers and company executives is The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity (TEEB), a large project for a group of G-20 countries led by former banker Dr. Pavan Sukhdev, who is also an advisor to Ethical Markets. An early example of the efficiency of ecosystems services was devised by Prof. Graciela Chichilnisky of Columbia University, to keep pure water feeding New York City by preserving its forested watershed – cheaper than constructing treatment plants, an approach also used in Brazil and elsewhere. Calculating such broader longer-term efficiencies is the wave of the future Green Economy (UNEP-FI Tipping Point, Washington, Oct. 2011), along with new metrics at the corporate and national level such as those I described (CSRwire "Quality of Life Indexes Gaining Ground").

This is a far cry from Wall Street's current fascination with high-frequency trading and other speculative bets on commodity ETFs and hedge funds. In my "Looking Back From 2020" scenario, I foresee such excessive trading categorized in medical manuals along with gambling as addictive behavior.

Hopefully, Wall Street high frequency traders can learn about Slow Money and how trading is done in biological markets, which is reciprocal and symbiotic (Susan Milius, Science News, July 31, 2011), such as that in minerals between plant roots and fungi. Shifting to longer-term investing is key to the emerging green economy, whether harvesting solar, wind, geothermal or ocean energy – since after the upfront costs, the fuel is free and inexhaustible. Encouraging is the exploration of ecosystems models of efficiency and productivity by British financial gurus Andrew Haldane and Lord Adair Turner, who understand what is wrong with GDP. Meanwhile, the green economy keeps growing as our latest Green Transition Scoreboard® shows.])

Identify and consider what Allan Savory has to say here in this TED Video???  This is an Ideology that is stomping out all other forms of debate and the only solution that can fix the problems have to come from a consensus.

How to fight desertification and reverse climate change

[Editor: The video in the above link is the same as I found on Youtube that I included above.]

Guys without the above scientific Learning that Allan Savory has Uncovered [then] how can you make the kind of statements that will not CAUSE massive Volatility and effect supply consistency in a World like Mr. Savory says is reaching a Level of Population demand that cannot maintain civility while we teach the world society about the relationship and that population size and Finite earth are a Limited resource supply that needs to be considered when we are planning our families?

I think with the Greater Understanding of this Learning people will self-regulate themselves because Survival Instincts are Sharpened with a Greater level of Understanding.  Forcing People to Conform to something with Oppressive means without Educating the reason will never end with peaceful results. We have seen this play out in past historic events that were Supply Shortage driven like the decades before the past two world wars which were born out of supply shortages due to populations exceeding supply.  What did those factions take over and secure once they took over a nation? Warring nations usurped the nation’s resources. What we are now seeing evolve is no different.

Coal, cattle are most damaging to the environment, study says

A United Nations-backed report released Monday says coal-fired power generation in Asia and cattle ranching in South America are the most damaging businesses for the environment, with hidden costs of those activities that exceed the value of their production.

The report, “Natural Capital at Risk – The Top 100 Externalities of Business,” says global output of basic goods – from cement and steel processing to agriculture, forestry, fisheries, mining and oil and gas exploration – caused damage totaling $7.3 trillion a year if pollution, water, greenhouse gases and waste were priced to reflect long-term impacts. The study was conducted by a business coalition for the Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity (TEEB). The coalition’s backers include the United Nations, World Bank, businesses and conservation groups.

“The numbers in this report underline the urgency but also the opportunities for all economies in transitioning to a green economy,” Achim Steiner, head of the U.N. Environment Programme, said in a statement.

Coal-fired power generation in Asia, led by China, had estimated revenues of $443 billion per year but caused $452 billion in damage to nature, largely because greenhouse gases caused climate change and pollution harmed people’s health.

Cattle ranching in South America, especially in cleared parts of the Amazon forest, ranked second wit … Read the Rest


TEEB FOR BUSINESS COALITION STUDY SHOWS MULTI-TRILLION DOLLAR NATURAL CAPITAL RISK UNDERLINING URGENCY OF GREEN ECONOMY TRANSITION


London & New Delhi, 15 April 2013 – The report, “Natural Capital at Risk – The Top 100 Externalities of Business”, estimates the global top 100 environmental externalities are costing the economy world-wide around $4.7 trillion a year in terms of the economic costs of greenhouse gas emissions, loss of natural resources, loss of nature-based services such as carbon storage by forests, climate change and air pollution-related health costs. This was released today from The TEEB for Business Coalition during the Business for the Environment summit in New Delhi.

Companies and their investors face both an opportunity and a significant problem. Consumer demand is set to grow significantly over the next few years with the increase in middle class consumers, especially in emerging markets. However, this is against a backdrop of increasing resource scarcity and the degradation of our natural ecosystems. One of the challenges will be to understand the value of the natural systems we rely on – commonly referred to as natural capital – and how these systems can be managed. The current business model creates significant environmental externalities. For example, water is not usually priced according to how scarce it is.  The report, authored by Trucost, identifies financial risk from environmental externalities e.g. damages from climate change, pollution, land conversion and depletion of natural resources, across business sectors at a regional level. It demonstrates that high impact business sectors make an economic loss when the costs of environmental damage such as their natural resource use and pollution costs are accounted for. However, businesses and investors can take account of natural capital impacts in decision making to manage risk and gain competitive advantage.

Wyld Stallyns Protecting Dzhokar?

Azamat Tazhayakov, Dias Kadyrbayev, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev
 Robel Phillipos






John R. Houk
© May 2, 2013


Yesterday I had read breaking news that three more people were arrested in connection to the Boston Marathon Bombers. I immediately jumped to the conclusion that these three confirmed suspicions that the Tsarnaev brothers indeed were not lone wolf Muslim terrorists.

According to the reports now updated is that Azamat Tazhayakov, Dias Kadyrbayev and Robel Phillipos were not co-conspirators in the bombing. Rather that these three were party buddies of Dzhokar Tsarnaev. Tsarnaev’s party buddies attempted to rid evidence that would play badly for Dzhokar. The authorities and the media wish us to believe that these three were just college idiots ala Bill and Ted (See this trailer for a good example of clueless dudes) doing a favor and not cognizant that they were helping a murderous Islamic terrorist.

I am still having a difficult time believing these guys were mere clueless felonious idiots. If indeed they were clueless idiots as far as I am concerned there are still other people or another organization – foreign or domestic – that were involved in the bombing operation or were providing tactical support in money and/or planning.

The Boston Marathon Bombing was not the work of clueless Muslim terrorists. The purpose was jihad. The goal was to strike fear into the perceived enemies of Islam. The desire was to kill and maim as many non-Muslims as possible.

People painted as clueless cohorts in act of Islamic terrorism are a stretch. Even if these young Muslims were not perpetrators they at least agreed with the ideology of the Tsarnaev brothers and so tried to eliminate evidence to legally protect their buddy from the prosecution in the American legal system of innocent until proven guilty.

Arrests of Boston bombing suspect's friends: What the charges really mean

By
Tamara Holder
May 01, 2013



Today's news of the arrests of Dzhokar Tsarnaev's three friends is really just a sign that investigators are working from the bottom up, from the cleanup crew to hopefully the masterminds.

Two 19-year old friends of suspected Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokar Tsarnaev were charged with a single count of conspiracy to obstruct justice. A third friend was charged with making false statements to federal investigators.

For purposes of clarifying the timeline, on April 15th, two bombs were detonated near the finish line of the Boston Marathon. For days, the perpetrators remained unknown and no terrorist group claimed responsibility.

It was not until three days later, on April 18th, that the FBI released images of the alleged bombers: brothers Tamerlan and Dzhokar Tsarnaev. That night, after a wild goose chase and shootout with police, Tamerlan died of his injuries. On April 19th, Dzhokar was found hiding in a boat and he was taken into custody.

The FBI was clearly on the right path before they found Dzhokar. Also on the 19th, investigators spoke to Dzhokar’s friends, Azamat Tazhayakov and Dias Kadyrbayev. Kadyrbayev told investigators that the day before, on April 18th, he and his two friends helped Dzhokar by disposing of a computer and fireworks-filled backpack from his dorm room.

(The third friend, Robel Phillipos, was also interviewed; however, according to a separate complaint, he lied to authorities over the course of many days, from April 19th until the 25th, about his presence inside of the dorm room and his knowledge about the other friends' behavior. It was not until the 26th that Phillipos confessed that he had previously lied.)

The very next day, on April 20th, authorities took Tazhayakov and Kadyrbayev, both citizens of Kazakhstan, into immigration custody on a “technical violation on a student visa for not regularly attending classes,” according to one of their attorneys. This is a common tactic among law enforcement: if a person can be taken into custody on a legitimate immigration violation, then authorities do not have to worry about the person becoming a flight risk. It also gives authorities time to interview the person about the underlying issue or crime.

The Tazhayakov/Kadyrbayev complaint highlights this tactic as it states that it was not until April 21st, again after the men were in the custody of immigration, that authorities obtained a search warrant into Dzhokar’s dorm room. (Dzhokar’s roommate is unnamed in the complaint.) At this point, authorities did not have to worry about the men disposing of additional evidence.

If convicted, Tazhayakov and Kadyrbayev face up to 5 years in prison, fines, and deportation. The third man, Robel Phillipos, an American citizen, is the only one charged with making false statements to federal investigators. This is a very broad crime. Simply saying, “I don’t know” can lead you to such a charge. He faces up to 8 years in prison and fines but obviously he cannot be deported.

Thus far, nothing suggests the conspiracies alleged between Dzhokar and his three friends include their involvement in the original plot with the Tsarnaev brothers. Instead, the men were apparently just the housekeepers for Dzhokar.

These crimes are very small in comparison to the severity of the ultimate terrorist acts. The Tsarnaev brothers obtained large amounts of explosives, guns, materials, and most importantly, knowledge about how to execute such terrible crimes. Interestingly, Tazhayakov, Kadyrbayev, Phillipos and Tsarnaev all began attending the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth at the same time in 2011. They were friends the entire time and they are all, aside from Phillipos, from a similar region of Eastern Europe. The similarities suggest that the friends know more than what investigators have shared in the complaints.

It is my suspicion that prosecutors charged the three men with minor crimes in an attempt to get more information about the Tsarnaev brothers and, more importantly, their sources of money, intelligence and education.. The friends may hopefully help investigators find those who were involved in planning the crimes, not just the cleanup crew.

3 More People in Custody in Boston Bombing Case

Dzhokhar & Tamerlan Tsarnaev surrounded by Boston
Here is some breaking Boston Marathon Bombing news. It is reported that three more suspects have been arrested in connection to the bombing!

Many others, and I have posited the suspicion that the Tsarnaev brothers did not act alone because of the sophistication and the expense of the materials used to build the bombs they set off. The authorities under the Obama Administration tried to tell us Americans that the Tsarnaevs operated as lone homegrown terrorists. That was and is a crock!

3 More People in Custody in Boston Bombing Case

Published: May 1, 2013

BOSTON — Three additional people were taken into custody Wednesday in connection with the Boston Marathon bombings last month, according to Boston police and a federal law enforcement official.

No identities or other information was offered, and the Boston police said more details would be available later.

Two explosives detonated April 15 near the finish line of the Boston Marathon killed three people and injured more than 260 others.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev and his brother Dzhokhar Tsarnaev are suspected of having set off the bombs. Tamerlan was killed in a subsequent shootout with the police, while Dzhokhar is in a federal prison hospital, charged with using a weapon of mass destruction.
