Yashraj Atodaria: And most important, the stocks of UNITED AIRLINES had massive shorting and buying of PUT Options on the exchange for the September series from all over the world. Why the hell was everyone suddenly interested in this airline's stock? Obviously they not only designed the catastrophe, they made billions over it.

Peter Er Er: FBI followed the money trail as far as they could. Obviously somebody knew and profited from it, but they were never able (or perhaps allowed) to identify who.
They were able to trace the anthrax attacks that occurred shortly after - the anthrax came from a US government lab and the suspect then turned up dead. Fact.

Yashraj Atodaria: Obviously the trail went cold. It was meant to. One lady who claimed on TV that she will expose US Govt's lies turns up dead, allegedly committed suicide the same night. And Jerry Bennings. Lot of mystery.

Peter Er Er: The UK Iraq weapons expert Dr. David Kelly also turned up dead under suspicious circumstances when he clashed with the government over Saddam having WMDs. Apparently he cut his wrists, then dumped his own body at a different location with no blood at the scene. The paramedics said it definately was not suicide. Official verdict - suicide.

Peter Er Er: John Patrick O'Neill is also worth reading about. He was the FBI top counter-terror expert, investigated the earlier WTC bombings, the attack on the USS Cole and more. He is quoted as saying that the biggest obstacle to investigating terrorism in the middle east, was US oil interests. He clashed with the federal government and senior FBI officials and was pushed out. He retired in August 2001 and took up a new post - head of security at the WTC. He died on 9/11.

Yashraj Atodaria: Also the fireman, forgot his name. He came out alive of the tower after rescuing some of the people trapped. Later he was calling someone from a telephone booth and an explosion went off. His truck's windows were shattered. There's even a video of this on youtube. He said to someone on the phone that he heard explosions, and few days later he is found dead.

Frank Kowalczyk: Could this be where the commercial aircraft were swapped out for military GPS controlled cargo planes?

Kirk Farrell: Passed over or took off from ?

Craig Goodwin: Why were there no plane wreckage recovered from the world trade site? not a nut a bolt no flight recorders, nothing and the other 2 crash sites, nothing no wreckage?

Peter Er Er: But a suspects passport survived.

Peter Er Er: Anybody remember the anthrax attacks that occurred immediately after 9/11? The FBI traced the anthrax back to a US government lab, but the only suspect then promptly turned up dead. Look it up. It's all on the record.

Peter Er Er: Also look up Operation Northwoods. You can download the full 12-page declassified document. It was a Pentagon plan, approved by all the Joint Chiefs of Staff which included staging a terror campaign in Miami, DC and elsewhere, fake hijackings and more, all to be blamed on Cuba as a pretext for invasion. It was only vetoed by JFK - a similar plan with a different president may have gone all the way. Jus' sayin'

THIS IS THE REASON I NO LONGER WATCH VIDEO'S POSTED HERE. ANY VIDEO CAN BE MANIPULATED TO BRING OUT A DESIRED RESPONSE OF THE PEOPLE. IT ALSO INCLUDES WHAT THE TELIEVISION MEDIA SHOWS YOU ... AS WHAT WAS DONE ON SEPTEMBER 11, 2001.

 

Gitmo guard Terry Holdbrooks served at the Guantanamo Bay prison from 2003 - 2004. Late on he wrote the book "Traitor" where he documented many of his experiences. RT's Sam Sacks spoke with Terry and asked him what sort of instructions he was given as a guard when it comes to dealing with detainees.

Mernagh’s court journey started 4 years ago when he was charged for the personal possession and cultivation of cannabis, which Matt used to treat the several illnesses he suffered from including fibromyalgia and scoliosis. Although Matt is one of thousands of Canadians who currently seek medical treatment in the form of cannabis, patients must first request approval by obtaining a medical marijuana license from Health Canada – a policy that Mernagh had not been in compliance with.

With the help of lawyer Paul Lewin, Mernagh’s case was brought before the Ontario Superior Court early last year in an effort to expose the flawed nature of the federal medical marijuana program; a program long scrutinized by eligible patients such as Mernagh for being too inaccessible. After a 3-month long trial, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice ruled in Matt’s favor by striking down the entire regulatory program governing medical marijuana as well as the two sections of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act that prohibited the production and possession of the plant. The ruling gave the federal government 90 days to improve their medical marijuana program or else cannabis would become legal for anyone to grow or possess.

Since then, the federal government has appealed the ruling and a hearing by the Ontario Court of Appeal has been set for early 2012. With his court date just around the corner, we checked in with Matt for an update on the current situation of medical marijuana in Canada.

TruthOnPot.com: How did you prepare for the trial at the Superior court?

Mernagh: Well, we started working the day after Labor Day and worked all the way through until January. I worked in Paul Lewin’s office almost everyday for a few hours, interviewing potential witnesses who were terminally and chronically ill Canadians that couldn’t get access to the Canadian Medical Marijuana Program. So that’s how I really did the prep-work there, which was 6 months of work while Paul was doing his job.

TruthOnPot.com: Besides the drug dealers profiting from prohibition and this failed policy, who else?

Mernagh: Who else? Obviously, the courts and the police are a big beneficiary of the war on drugs. The police budget is propped up by marijuana money to fight prohibition. We’re easy people to catch! So, the police like to spend the money on that to pump up their numbers. I think the police are one of the biggest beneficiaries of prohibition that there is.

TruthOnPot.com: As a medical marijuana user, what is your opinion on legalizing for recreational use?

Mernagh: I think they should regulate and legalize it for recreational use. Make it a taxed and regulated marketplace. I think that my friends who are recreational users should have quality marijuana where they know what they’re getting – i.e. strains, THC levels, CBD levels, whether it is a sativa, indica, or hybrid. I think they should have the opportunity to buy cannabis like they buy their wine and alcohol.

TruthOnPot.com: Describe how difficult it is in Canada to receive a medical marijuana license and the impact it has on patients?

Mernagh: It’s essentially like winning the lottery. We have less than 1% of doctors in Canada signing paperwork for this Health Canada program. There’s only approximately 10 000 Canadians in it right now. Just to put that number into perspective, there are 60 000 people in Oregon who have their medical marijuana licenses, which is [almost] 1% of their state population. So I think Canada’s doing a terrible job considering the fact that our program is 100% legal, compared to Oregon.

You’re putting a lot of stress on people! You really are affecting people’s health by preventing them from having access to medical marijuana. You’re causing un-due harm in terms of pain and further stress.

TruthOnPot.com: What is your take on legal and medical professionals charging patients obscene amounts of money to receive a legitimate medical marijuana card?

Mernagh: Referrals to a doctor is not what the Law Society teaches, so I think any lawyer that’s involved with referring patients to doctors is probably committing some kind of fraud, if not, a violation of The Law Society Code of Ethics. Because from what I’ve checked, the Law Society does not have a fee for billing people for referrals to doctors. So, these lawyers are middlemen that are charging people to get access to doctors and they are also prohibition propagators. Honestly, they’re as bad as prohibitionists themselves.

In terms of doctor’s charging patients, there is a form to be filled out, so I think there should be a reasonable fee attached to that. I go to my family doctor and the top fee that he charges is $150. So, clearly, medical professionals need to look at what they’re doing in terms of charging a third-party fee.

TruthOnPot.com: How much influence does the United States have on Canada’s legalization efforts right now?

Mernagh: The U.S. has huge influence on Canada’s legalization efforts. In reality, our drug policy for prohibition is completely directed by the U.S. and the UN. You’ll see that in my court factum, which explains that I’m in violation of the ’64 and ‘68 drug-control treaties from the UN, and U.S. drug policies are heavily cited in my factum as the reason Canada has their drug laws the way they are. I think as Canadian citizens, we should be very upset by these things.

TruthOnPot.com: What progress has been made in Canada towards legalization in recent years and how have you contributed?

Mernagh: That’s a great question. Obviously my court ruling, R. v. Mernagh, has struck down the marijuana laws for possession and production and I think that has gone a long way for creating change in our country. It has created discussion, and by the end of this year, Canada may not have a drug policy for personal possession and production of marijuana, because our courts have decided to strike those 2 parts out of the criminal code; that’s the best route we’ve gone so far. Considering we have mandatory minimums, having the courts throw out the marijuana laws, I think, is the best thing we’ve seen in 20 or 30 years.

But despite a long and successful career that involved the prosecution of some of California’s worst drug offenders, Judge Gray has an interesting take on the war on drugs – he believes that it needs to stop.

Since publicly announcing his position against the U.S. drug war in a 1992 televised press conference, Judge Gray has been instrumental in the movement towards drug policy reform. His book Why Our Drug Laws Have Failed: A Judicial Indictment Of War On Drugs details the many reasons behind his criticism of the drug war, such as the greater availability of drugs to teenagers as well as the softer prosecution of non-drug related offenders that result from drug prohibition. His commentary has also been featured in numerous publications and a wide variety of media including the 2007 documentary American Drug War: The Last White Hope.

Well into his retirement, Judge Gray continues to work tirelessly as an advocate for bringing the drug war to a final end. As such, he was more than willing to answer our questions about his experiences as a former federal prosecutor and how they have shaped him into an outspoken critic of the very same laws that he worked to enforce.

TruthOnPot.com: When was it first clear to you that America’s drug policy was a failed one?

Judge Gray: After I had been on the trial court bench for about 2 and a half years.

TruthOnPot.com: Was there any case or situation you remember in particular?

Judge Gray: I’m a former federal prosecutor as well as a former criminal defense attorney in the
Navy and things just started to build up.

There was one case I was involved with in which a really bad man was being prosecuted for being with prostitutes, beating them up, robbing them, and raping them. It turned out that the district attorney had agreed that he would serve such a small amount of time in custody that – after everything was over – he was taken back into the lock-up and gave out a war whoop.

I thought to myself, “Well, he thinks he’s won” and then I thought, “Well, he has won” and the reason is that we’re spending so much time, money and resources on non-violent drug cases – we’re not spending them on robbery, rape and murder. So that’s what started me thinking about it and 2 years later I came out publicly about it.

TruthOnPot.com: As a former Superior Court judge, describe how drug prohibition laws are continually putting our children in harms way.

Judge Gray: There are 2 big reasons for this. The first is something I ask high school kids about all the time – is it easier for you to get marijuana or alcohol? And the answer is, it’s easier to get marijuana. Why? Because the illicit marijuana dealers do not ask for ID.

The second reason is – if I am an adult drug dealer, how much risk-taking can I buy with 50$ of cash from a teenage boy or girl in the intercity or almost anywhere else? Quite a bit. Because while 50$ is nothing to a drug dealer, to a kid it’s a fair amount of money. I can recruit all of the young people I want as a cheap source of labor – use them as gophers, look-outs, couriers – and then, as soon as their reliability is established, I will trust them to go out and sell small amounts of drugs in the communities. Why? That’s easy. I make more money and they make more money.

If you have a 15,16, or 17-year old selling drugs in his or her community, who is that person going to sell to? They’re not going to sell to adults. They’re going to sell to their 15 and 16-year old peers, thus recruiting more children to that very lifestyle of drug usage and drug selling that we say we’re trying to keep away from them and it is caused by the policy of drug prohibition. Today, you do not have students selling alcohol on their high school campuses; but they’re selling methamphetamines or other things pretty much all the time, which is once again caused by drug prohibition.

TruthOnPot.com: Other than drug dealers, what groups of people stand to benefit from the continual enforcement of drug prohibition?

Judge Gray: Well, there are really lots of them. For example, pretty much anybody that builds prisons and anybody that staffs prisons. In the state of California, the prison guards union is probably the strongest political lobby group we have. They’re winning because we’re putting all of those non-violent drug offenders in prison.

People that sell burglar alarm equipment and security services, they’re winning. Criminal defense attorneys are winning because they’re getting paid to defend drug dealers. Law enforcement is winning because they keep getting more and more resources to fight the war on drugs; resources that they’re spending on that war and not on robbery, rape and murder.

TruthOnPot.com: In the state of California, public ballot initiatives for a regulated marijuana market (such as the Regulate Marijuana Like Wine campaign) have received growing support. What sorts of things should an average citizen expect to see if marijuana were to be legalized and regulated in states such as California?

Judge Gray: You would see a small increase in the use of marijuana by adults over time. Some of those would come from not using so much alcohol and going to marijuana instead, which, to be honest, would still be a better thing. You would also see people who used to take drugs like methamphetamines come down the ladder and probably use marijuana.

You would also see an enormous increase in the hemp industry. Some people may not know this, but hemp is an industrial product derived from the marijuana bush; the stalk itself has enormous properties and uses that go back thousands of years.

You would also see a lot of tax money coming into the local state and federal governments that is not coming in now. As they say, marijuana is the largest cash crop in California but none of that goes towards taxes, except for medical marijuana dispensaries. So, you would see a great deal more in tax revenue coming into the governments and they would save – according to the Attorney General of California – tens of millions of dollars that they’re currently spending in trying to enforce this unenforceable system.

TruthOnPot.com: What types of changes to do you see in other countries with regard to drug policy and how is the United States affecting international opinion?

Judge Gray:The United States is running the bus with regard to drug prohibition and if the United States were to change its position, the rest of the world would heave a sigh of relief.

Even still, there are major propositions going on in Latin America right now to regulate and control marijuana, or even heroin and cocaine, because they are the ones that are suffering from the corruption and the violence that is caused by our country’s drug problem. They’re beginning to see that the only way to reduce the corruption and violence – and the only way to get rid of the drug cartels – is to regulate and control these substances and they’re well on their way to doing that.

TruthOnPot.com: You’ve been a public proponent of drug policy reform for 20 years now. What has changed since you first began to voice your support for this cause?

Judge Gray: There have been 2 sizeable changes. One is for the worse. That is, we are in worse shape today with regard to filling our prisons and the cost of drugs. There are far more drugs in our community today than there were 20 years ago, there are far more people in prison than there was 20 years ago, and the cost of drugs is less today than 20 years ago – all of that change is negative.

The positive is that more people are beginning to understand what is going on. More people in the media, more people in the chambers of commerce, even more elected officials are beginning to understand that just because we discuss the regulation and control of these various drugs does not mean that we condone people using them.

They are also beginning to see that drug addiction is a medical problem, not a criminal justice problem. They are beginning to understand that we should bring drug-addicted people closer to medical professionals that can help them and reserve the criminal justice system to control people’s actions instead. If you drive under the influence of any of these drugs (including alcohol), if you beat up your spouse, if you hit somebody over the head with a pool cue; that is a criminal justice issue. People are beginning to understand that as well as the taxes that they are losing by not regulating and controlling marijuana.

It’s only a question of time. I tell people that I absolutely guarantee them that we will change away from this failed system and, within 2 years of doing so, almost everybody will join hands and look back and be aghast and astonished that we could have perpetuated this failed system for so long.

He has seen and experienced its benefits firsthand through his involvement with some of the first clinical marijuana trials to ever be conducted on patients with the painful, life-threatening disorder.

Dr. Abrams currently serves as the chief of Hematology and Oncology at San Francisco General Hospital. In 2006, Abrams took on an additional role as a cancer and integrative medicine specialist at the UCSF Osher Centre for Integrative Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco.

On top of his demanding and accomplished career, Dr. Abrams remains on the forefront of medical cannabis research. Widely respected by patients and doctors alike, TruthOnPot.com was eager to speak with Dr. Abrams about his work in this exciting field of medicine.

TruthOnPot.com: What sparked your interest and involvement with medical cannabis research?

Abrams: It goes back quite a while. I did my training to be a cancer specialist in the ‘70s, when we didn’t have a lot of anti-nausea drugs and many of our patients seemed to benefit from smoking cannabis at that time.

In 1989, I had a partner who died of AIDS after choosing not to take AZT – the only anti-retroviral drug available then – under my recommendation. I didn’t think that it was very good. But he found benefit from smoking cannabis, which he did daily.

In 1992, while I was in Amsterdam for the International AIDS Conference, I saw Mary Ratburn on the CNN headlines news being arrested for bringing cannabis brownies to our AIDS patients at San Francisco General Hospital. She was in her late 60s and brought brownies to our patients so they could eat their food and take their medicine.

When I got back to San Francisco, there was a letter from Rick Doblin – founder of the Multidisciplinary Association of Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) – suggesting that a clinical trial demonstrating the benefits of cannabis should come from Mary’s institution. I responded to the challenge and began discussions with the government in hopes of conducting clinical research on marijuana.

TruthOnPot.com: Can you describe the results of the various medical marijuana studies that you’ve been involved with?

Abrams: The first study that I wanted to do was a study to show that marijuana improved appetite in patients with the AIDS wasting syndrome.

But what I learned was that the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) – which is the only legal source of cannabis in the country – has a mandate from Congress to only study substances of abuse as substances of abuse. Meaning that if they figure cannabis is a substance of abuse, they can’t provide cannabis or fund studies that are going to try to demonstrate that it has medicinal benefits.

By the time I came to understand this, we already had drugs that were effective in combating the AIDS wasting syndrome. But, there was a possibility that recreational drugs could interfere with the metabolism of the anti-viral therapies.

In 1997, I received funding for my first study which looked at a potential interaction between cannabis (we used dronabinol in this case) and protease inhibitors – the potent drugs that were saving AIDS patients’ lives. We looked at the level of the AIDS virus, the impact on the immune system, the levels of the anti-viral drugs and any changes in weight and appetite. We found that cannabis caused no real problem in any of these instances and, if anything, we saw weight gain in patients with HIV who did not have the wasting syndrome.

In California, we had the University of California Center for Medicinal Cannabis Research (CMCR), which had $3 million a year for 3 years to fund clinical trials investigating the safety and effectiveness of cannabis in various conditions. The first study I did with CMCR funding was again in patients with HIV who had painful nerve damage known as peripheral neuropathy. We did a placebo controlled trial that showed that inhalation of smoked cannabis lead to a decrease in the pain, both from the peripheral neuropathy as well as in an experimental pain model that we did on the patients.

The next study we did was to examine the Volcano Vaporizer as a smokeless delivery system because we knew that people were not enthusiastic about smoking a medicine. We took healthy cannabis smokers and subjected them to 3 different strengths of NIDA cannabis. We found that vaporization produced the same amount of active cannabinoids in the blood stream, that it was actually preferred by the patients, and that it was associated with less expired carbon monoxide, which is a marker of exposure to harmful gases.

The last study that we did was a pharmacokinetic interaction study which involved patients with chronic pain taking a stable dose of sustain-released morphine or sustain-released oxycodone. We subjected them to vaporized cannabis for 4 days and we measured the level of the opioids in their bloodstream before and after exposure to cannabis to see if there was any interaction. We found no significant change in the levels of opioids. If anything, the levels of morphine seemed to decline slightly. But we did see a boost in pain relief despite the slightly lowered levels of opioids. That suggested there was a synergistic interaction between cannabis and the opioid medications – that is, 1 + 1 = 5 as opposed to 1 + 1 = 2. Hopefully, the next study we do will be a larger study to confirm the synergistic interaction between the two.

TruthOnPot.com: How do the synthetic cannabinoid medicines compare to vaporized cannabis?

 

Abrams: Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which can be obtained in oral capsule form, is just one of over 400 components of the plant. I believe having all the other components of the plant provide the ‘ying’ and the ‘yang’ – that is, they balance out the negative effects of THC and enhance the positive effects.

Sativex is now also available in Canada and Europe and is in clinical trials in the US. This under-the-tongue spray is a whole plant extract that has some manipulation of the CBD and THC ratios, which some people find quite useful.

TruthOnPot.com: Could the pain-mitigating effects of medical cannabis be applied to any other conditions or disorders?

Abrams: I’d recommend it to anybody with pain, the research has already been done there.

I think there’s good evidence for its use in helping with nausea and sleep. I often recommend cannabis to my cancer patients for nausea, pain, depression and insomnia, just because I know that it works – you don’t have to do a clinical trial to prove that.

TruthOnPot.com: In your opinion, is marijuana a viable alternative to current legal substances such as alcohol and tobacco?

Abrams: It was certainly my alternative in college and medical school. I’d be a very different person today if I chose alcohol instead of cannabis at Brown University and Stanford University School of Medicine.

You should watch this video. Do it.

The song at the end is "All About Me" by Dusty Smith.

 

I've been getting a lot of condescending messages from "Agnostics" lately attempting to belittle me for being an atheist, but the joke is on you suckers, because you're basically just belittling yourselves.
