Ed note: Some of the origins of 9/11 start here.
First, while I agree that the twin evils of socialism and communism are not dead, I believe the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and the collapse of the Soviet communist Empire in 1991 were real pivotal events in history.
Communism, in its most overtly malevolent form, still survives in Cuba and North Korea. Even China, in order to save face with Mao's legacy of collectivism, still calls itself communist, but is more akin to an economic fascist giant passing as government than anything else.
There is also a crude mixture of socialism and corruption ubiquitous in many third world countries of Africa, Asia, and in a few countries in Latin America, such as Ecuador and Venezuela, where the results have been catastrophic.
But most dangerous and insidious is the seductively gentler form of global socialism conceived in the minds of the elitist global intelligentsia who pull the strings animating the masses. This gentler "socialism with a human face" afflicts the "social(ist) democracies of Europe, Australia, and even insinuates itself in the United States' once a constitutional republic. This variety is certainly the most dangerous because of the incredible degree of deception affecting the most developed nations of the West, presumably with the best informed, most literate, and most sophisticated populations!
Russia's tsarist legacy of autocracy and authoritarianism must not be confused with the much worse Soviet-style communism and totalitarianism. In fact, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, writing about his experiences in Siberia, could not muster approval from the Tsar's or (Czar's) censors for some of his writings because his description of life in exile was deemed too comfortable and would invite criminals to commit crimes to get there! Compare that with the Soviet gulag system! Imagine the irony: Dostoyevsky had to edit his manuscript (magnify his discomfort in exile) in order to pass the censors and get published in Tsarist Russia!
Russia's legacy of submission to arbitrary rule began with her conquest by the Mongol hordes of the 13th century; barbarism followed with Ivan the Terrible, not softening considerably through the centuries even with the much-touted reforms of the over-celebrated Peter the Great. But again, Russian Tsarism should not be confused with Soviet communism.
So it is worth repeating that in Russia today the pre-1991, Soviet-style communism is dead as it is in Central and Eastern Europe.
Admittedly, there is much truth in what my very knowledgeable friend said. During the Cold War, there was evidence the drug trade was in part handled by communist intelligence services of various countries, intending to use it to subvert the West, as well as to make profits to carry out further subversion. Certainly this was true of the Soviet KGB and the Cuban DGI, working through third countries such as Colombia and Panama. I have read and cited Joseph Douglass' book, Red Cocaine, in some of my articles. The Russian FSB today, like the old Soviet KGB, remains formidable. And if some Americans in high places have been fooled, particularly in government circles, it has been by either their arrogant ignorance, their desire to be fooled because of their concordant treasonous ideology, or because of venal financial gain. One person that satisfied the latter two conditions, for example, was the late business entrepreneur Armand Hammer, as recounted in the monumental biography by Edward J. Epstein.
Now, let's say a few words of introduction about Anatoliy M. Golitsyn (1926-), the formidable Soviet KGB defector who actually triggered this discussion. In 1961, Golitsyn (photo, left below), a Soviet KGB major with a photographic memory, defected from his station in Helsinki, Finland, along with his family. In the West, Golitsyn not only helped uncover a number of communist spies infiltrating Western governments, but provided intelligence services with information that proved invaluable. For example, he described Soviet intelligence operations and methods of recruitment and running spies. After years of debriefing, Golitsyn became a consultant for the CIA and a brilliant analyzer of information. From the time of his defection and all through the Cold War, Golitsyn worked with the CIA and other Western governments, including Great Britain, earning the title of Honorary Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE). Golitsyn, an American citizen since 1984, is still highly respected as an anti-communist freedom fighter and a genuine hero of the Cold War. James Jesus Angleton (1917-1987), the CIA chief for counterintelligence from 1954 to 1975, called Golitsyn, "the most valuable defector ever to reach the West." Reportedly, he is still under deep cover today.

Ed. note: The man who was Harold "Kim" Philby's handler was Alexander Mikhailovich Orlov, one of Joseph Stalin's "illegals." It was Orlov who under Stalin orgnized the CHEKA (All-Russian Extraordinary Commission for Combating Counterrevolution and Sabotage), the Bolshevik security police. Orlov came from a Yiddish-speaking Orthodox Jewish family from Belarusian in the town of Babruysk. Arnold Deutsch, the deep-cover intelligence officer who recruited him, was an Austrian Jew who was drawn to Marxism's "scientifically-based" analysis and revolutionary vision. Communist solidarity proved to be a tremendous asset in the recruitment and running of agents in the West. Under Stalin's "great purge", Orlov feared for his life and migrated to the United States and died in Cleveland, Ohio in 1973.
The mystery of Lord Victor Rothschild's (1910-1990) connections to Soviet intelligence has vexed researchers for over a half century now. As the scion of an ultra-wealthy banking house and confidante to Winston Churchill, Rothschild was an influential figure in Britain's power elite for decades, occupying key positions in counterintelligence, the energy sector and strategic policy planning. But was he also the notorious Cambridge Spy Ring's "Fifth Man," a spy for Moscow who could access the crown jewels of UK secrets?
The Cambridge network – consisting of Kim Philby, Guy Burgess, Donald Maclean, Anthony Blunt, and John Cairncross – has gone down in history as one of Soviet secret service's most successful penetrations, to the shame of the British establishment. Long after their exposure, Rothschild was well-situated as a grey cardinal of UK politics, seemingly untouchable.
In 1994 investigative author Roland Perry wrote The Fifth Man, implicating Rothschild as a Soviet asset based on interviews with anonymous KGB veterans in Moscow. Yet Perry couldn't obtain the direct proof he needed to clinch the case. Now, new evidence has surfaced, suggesting that if not the Fifth Man, Rothschild was indeed working for Soviet foreign intelligence alongside the Cambridge Five from the 1930's up to the initial stages of the Cold War. The source is none other than the first chairman of the KGB, General Ivan Aleksandrovich Serov (1905-1991).
An enforcer for Stalin and Khrushchev, General Ivan Serov served as the first chairman of the KGB from 1954 to 1958.
Ivan Serov was a physically brave and ruthless NKVD officer who specialized in mass deportations and quelling internal unrest under Stalin. In 1954 he was chosen to head the newly reconstituted state security apparatus, the KGB, by Nikita Khrushchev, who considered Serov reliable from their time in pre-war Ukraine. "Ivan the Terrible," as the Western press christened him, led the KGB until 1958, when the Politburo sent him to head the GRU, Soviet military intelligence. Ousted in 1963 after the exposure of GRU Colonel Oleg Penkovsky as a CIA-MI6 agent, Serov was soon lowered in rank, excluded from the Party, and forced into retirement. Though relegated to oblivion, the cashiered Kremlin enforcer kept a diary – a fact that was known to the KGB as early as 1971. Serov concealed his writings within the walls of his Moscow dacha's garage, and they were only discovered in 2012, some two decades after his death.
Serov's diaries, published in Russian as Notes from the Suitcase (Zapiski iz chemodana), reveal a myriad of details on NKVD wartime deportation operations, the treacherous games played amongst Stalin's lieutenants, and a first-hand account of how the Red Army crushed the Hungarian Revolution in 1956. While Serov was not a professional intelligence officer, some of the most fascinating entries concern the espionage operations that he oversaw as chief of the KGB and GRU. And the question of Lord Victor Rothschild – whether he acted as a Soviet asset – is finally put to rest.
I met with Victor Rothschild only once, at the embassy. This person was well-known from very long ago as an "heir" to the Philby affair and others. He knew perfectly well that these people, having certain inclinations, were connected to us, and used them to pass on information to Moscow, including false information.
Overall, useful ties with him ended with the formation of Israel.
As you remember, the British government was always against the creation of Israel, while Rothschild, to the contrary, aided this.
All materials on the Palestinian problem in the 1940's and on the British position were received by our intelligence service in the 1930's-40's. After Burgess and Maclean's escape, he only appeared at official receptions at our embassies and met with the ambassador, Mikoyan or Malenkov.
In London he made an unpleasant impression on me. He didn't inspire trust. I've met many such hustlers in Bessarabia and Romania, as well as in Germany after the war.
The contact, according to the program of the visit and issues for discussions with the British, was interesting, of course. But Rothschild always pursued only his own goals. In his own way, Rothschild also compromised Philby and others. Ties with him put the information passed on by them in doubt.
We were helped by such solid, serious, moral and non-mercenary people who shared our views, such as Bernal, Ivor Montagu, and major scientists. Rothschild was just a fellow traveler.
The ex-chairman of the KGB opens his passage with a stunning claim – Victor Rothschild not only knew of his school friends' espionage, he actively supplied information to Moscow Center through their network. Back in their Cambridge days, Rothschild, Burgess, and Blunt had all been members of the Apostles, a campus society characterized by Marxist intellectual speculation and homosexual activity. But as Serov makes clear, Rothschild the 'fellow traveler' was not under Soviet control. Rather, it is implied he was pursuing another aim entirely – the creation of a Jewish state, a family dream fulfilled in the aftermath of the Second World War. The role of the Rothschilds in founding Israel is undisputed; the Balfour Declaration of 1917 was due largely to the energies of young Victor's uncle, Lord Walter Rothschild. Secret diplomacy, double-dealing, the use of spies, and even terrorism all formed an indispensable part of the drama. And now Serov's revelation would suggest that by the end of the 1940's, the Soviet Union had outlived its utility in the eyes of the legendary financial dynasty.
Stalin had been among the first to support the fledgling State of Israel; after all, the political spectrum of the new nation-state leaned heavily socialist, and a large portion of its immigrants had come from the Eastern Bloc. Armaments from the Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia helped tip the balance in favor of the Zionist cause during Israel's War for Independence, what Palestinian Arabs rather less enthusiastically have termed an Naqbah, "The Catastrophe." At the time of Israel's formation, the Kremlin believed Ashkenazi settlers, refugees and emigres – some of whom had fought in or alongside the Red Army against Nazi Germany – would deal a blow to Western imperialism in the Middle East. As Serov's entry indicates, Rothschild and the Cambridge network helped inform the Soviet leadership and perhaps further undermine Britain's weakening grip on the Palestine Mandate.
Soviet hopes for a red stronghold on the Levant, however, would evaporate quickly. Stalin was in firm command of international communism, but the Zionist movement proved well beyond his grasp. Events from the 1948 assassination of playwright and Jewish Antifascist Committee chair Solomon Mikhoels in Minsk to the Doctors' Plot show that the "Father of All Nations" was unable to bring Zionism under his control. The postwar purge of prominent Jews in the Soviet Union conformed to Stalin's standard practice of eliminating any and all perceived potential threats to his rule.
While Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion initially pursued a policy of balance between East and West, he came to steer his country toward the Atlantic alliance – Israel needed a dependable great-power patron with a wealthy and influential Jewish diaspora community, and the United States fit the bill. Less than a generation into Israel's existence, under the Johnson Administration, Washington and Tel Aviv cemented extensive security cooperation (read: billions in arms contracts and economic aid) that continues to this day.
The Soviets would counter Israel's westward shift by backing not only the dispossessed Palestinians, but also secular Arab states in the region such as Syria, Egypt, and eventually Iraq. In the context of the Cold War, it made sense for Israel to arrange intelligence sharing with Western powers, especially the United States. The CIA's pointman for the Israeli relationship throughout the first half of the US-Soviet struggle was Company counterintelligence chief James Jesus Angleton, who happened to be a longtime drinking friend and understudy of none other than Kim Philby.
The demise of the Cambridge Five, beginning with the flight of Guy Burgess and Donald Maclean to Moscow in 1951, roughly coincided with Israel's gradual but steady integration into the Western camp. Working in Washington as the MI6 liaison, Philby knew from the freshly-decrypted Venona intercepts that Maclean's career as a Soviet agent (codename "Homer") was coming to an end. He sent the debauched Burgess, who was also serving at the British Embassy and living in his house at the time, to warn Maclean and facilitate his escape. As it turned out, both Cambridge school mates vanished behind the Iron Curtain, leaving Philby under a dark cloud of suspicion and forcing his resignation. The master spy played it cool, laid low, and eventually made his way to Beirut five years later as an MI6 asset under journalistic cover (additionally re-establishing contact with the KGB).
Philby's final unmasking in Beirut during the winter of 1962-63 was the result of Rothschild action, a fact that most accounts have passed over without critical analysis. While Anatoly Golitsyn, the KGB major who defected to the CIA in 1961, is popularly attributed to have confirmed Philby's identity as a Soviet agent, it was Victor Rothschild who sealed his fate. The ostensible reason for the legendary mole's exposure was his unfavorable attitude toward Israel, as conveyed on the pages of The Observer and The Economist. Flora Solomon, an ardent Zionist whom Philby unsuccessfully had attempted to recruit in the 1930's, became incensed at his pro-Arab, anti-Israel journalistic slant and decided to reveal what she had known for decades. Solomon, whose son would found Amnesty International, reported Philby to a figure perched high in the British security establishment: Lord Victor Rothschild.
If Serov's diary is genuine, then Rothschild would have no interest in Philby being brought back to the Old Bailey to stand trial, risking his own exposure. Much better to have the Cambridge Five's brightest star spirited away to Moscow than spilling secrets of high criminality in the establishment. As MI6 was about to close in with a group of officers headed by old friend Nicholas Elliott, Philby received a warning. Anthony Blunt, his spy days largely behind him and now ensconced as Surveyor of the Queen's Pictures, went to Beirut under the pretext of a botanical excursion in December of 1962, mere weeks before Philby's escape. The documentary film maker George Carey notes he was ostensibly in search of the frog orchid, a flower that grows wild in England, yet nowhere in Lebanon. So who sent Blunt, the KGB's London residency or his longtime associate Victor Rothschild?
Moscow Center wouldn't need to send Anthony Blunt all the way to Beirut to tip his old school friend off to the oncoming danger. Philby was already in contact with his immediate handler, a certain Petukhov stationed nearby under Soviet diplomatic cover, and Yuri Modin, his longtime control officer. Modin had in fact warned him of Golitsyn's defection in the summer of 1962, instructing him "not to return to Britain because of the danger of arrest, and to make contingency plans for his escape." Modin himself thought that through its seeming incompetence, MI6 "had actively encouraged him to slip away." The most powerful elements of the British ruling class, personified by Victor Rothschild, wanted Philby safe and silent behind the Iron Curtain so that higher-level elite treachery would remain hidden from public view.
During his lifetime, Lord Victor Rothschild threatened to sue anyone into penury for claiming he had worked for Soviet intelligence. Hardly would he believe that one day, from the grave, the former chief of the KGB would expose him as a spy.
Ed. note: Although Russia may want us to think Russia is "Israel' foe", this doesn't correspond to the present circumstances between Russia and Israel.
Did Israel Trade Pollard Spy Data To Kremlin For Soviet Scientists?
At this point some readers may be caught in the confusion between "good" and "evil?" Well, don't feel bad, the Chabad Lubavitchers have all the answers for you – and for Vladimir Putin. Does not Vladimir Putin now represent – and very convincingly – the "good" from what we have witnessed happening in Russia since 1990? That must mean there exists an "evil" right? That "evil" must be the US.
Antinomianism comes from the Greek meaning lawless. In Christian theology it is a pejorative term for the teaching that Christians are under no obligation to obey the laws of ethics or morality. Few, if any, would explicitly call themselves "antinomian," hence, it is usually a charge leveled by one group against an opposing group. Antinomianism may be viewed as the polar opposite of legalism, the notion that obedience to a code of religious law is necessary for salvation. In this sense, both antinomianism and legalism are considered errant extremes.

Créée en 1905, la , à Exeter, New Hampshire, est une bibliothèque appartenant à l'école d'enseignement secondaire Phillips Exeter Academy.
Inauguré en 1972, le nouveau bâtiment réunit dès son origine 160 000 volumes, répartis sur 9 niveaux, et dispose d'une capacité de 250 000 volumes. Réalisé par l'architecte américain Louis Kahn, il est considéré aujourd'hui comme une œuvre majeure de l'architecture américaine du . À ce titre, il a reçu le prestigieux Twenty-five Year Award en 1997, prix décerné par l'American Institute of Architects (AIA).

Histoire

La bibliothèque ouvre ses portes en 1905 dans l'Academy Building. En 1939 est créée la Friends of the Library, une association permettant une politique d'acquisition et un budget important qui font aujourd'hui de la Phillips Exeter Academy Library une des plus grandes bibliothèques au monde attachée à un établissement d'enseignement secondaire. En 1965, en raison du volume croissant de ses collections, le projet d'un nouveau bâtiment est confié à Louis Kahn.
Le  a lieu l'inauguration de la nouvelle bibliothèque, incluant une cérémonie  et un dîner au cours duquel L'architecte prend la parole. En , le bibliothécaire Rodney Armstrong quitte les lieux pour le Boston Athenæum. À partir de 1982, les Lamont Poetry Series sont l'occasion d'inviter chaque année deux poètes de renom. Le premier invité est Jorge Luis Borges. En 1996, l' Academy Library est renommée Class of 1945 Library afin d'honorer le professeur Lewis Perry. En 2001, dix moines tibétains du monastère Drepung Gomang créent un mandala de sable à l'étage principal. En 2003, Nathaniel Kahn réalise un film sur la vie et l'œuvre de son père, Louis I. Kahn, My Architect, nommé à l'Oscar du meilleur film documentaire, dans lequel figure des images de la bibliothèque. En 2005, l'U.S. Postal édite une série intitulée Les Chefs-d'œuvre de l'architecture moderne américaine où figure un timbre représentant la bibliothèque. La même année, la bibliothèque célèbre son centenaire.

Architecture

La citation accompagnant la remise du Twenty-five Year Award en 1997 par l'American Institute of Architects est la suivante :
« Association exceptionnelle du dessin et de la technologie, cette icône d'une structure clairement articulée fait du fameux quadrilatère original de la célèbre Académie un centre culturel et un chef-d'œuvre de l'architecture moderne. Le bloc massif de brique rouge sombre recèle une délicatesse surprenante. Il est artistiquement en avance sur son temps et continuera à éclairer, telle une pierre de touche spirituelle de grande conception, des générations d'architectes».

Dans les années 50, la collection de la bibliothèque nécessitant de nouveaux espaces, il a d'abord été envisagé de construire une annexe à la Davis Library, bâtiment dessiné à l'origine par . Le projet est vite abandonné et l'idée apparaît de réaliser un nouveau bâtiment qui serait respectueux de l'architecture géorgienne environnante. Après constitution d'un cahier des charges et la rencontre de plusieurs architectes, le choix des commanditaires se porte en 1965 sur Louis Kahn, pour son usage particulier de la brique et l'intérêt porté à l'utilisation de la lumière naturelle. La bibliothèque est pour Louis Kahn un sujet d'étude depuis plusieurs années. Lors d'un discours général au sujet de l'architecture, l'ordre et les espaces à l'Institut royal d'architecture du Canada en 1957, il précise :
 Un homme avec un livre va vers la lumière. Ainsi commence une bibliothèque. Il ne s'éloignera pas de 15m pour se mettre sous la lumière électrique. Le cabinet de lecture est la niche qui pourra être le commencement de l'ordre de l'espace et sa structure. Dans une bibliothèque la colonne commence toujours dans la lumière. Sans être nommé, l'espace créé par la structure de la colonne évoque son usage comme cabinet de lecture».

La bibliothèque est un bâtiment carré 111 par 111 pieds, soit 33,83 sur 33,83 mètres, occupant une superficie totale de 12 321 pieds carrés, soit . La hauteur totale du sol au sommet du parapet inférieure que l'on voit depuis la route est de près de 80 pieds, soit . La hauteur au sommet du plus haut parapet, au centre, est de 85,5 pieds, soit 26,06 m. L'immeuble possède neuf niveaux, dont les sous-sols. Les sous-sols conservent les collections de micro-films et de périodiques ainsi que les archives de l'école. Le rez-de-chaussée abrite également la collection de périodiques.

Le bâtiment est constitué de deux enveloppes, la première extérieure en brique, la deuxième intérieure en béton brut. La première s'interrompt, telle une ruine, par une rangée de baies sans fenêtres, laissant apparaître le ciel et la silhouette des aménagements du dernier étage en retrait. De ses voyages en Europe, en particulier à Rome et Carcassonne, Louis Kahn a ramené ce goût pour la ruine et le monumental, apparent dans plusieurs de ses œuvres.

À l'entrée, un double escalier, en béton brut, partiellement couvert de marbre, permet d'accéder au premier étage où se trouve la salle centrale. Il s'agit d'un atrium, espace de 50 pieds de côté, soit 15,24 mètres, baigné de lumière naturelle, d'une part par de larges ouvertures côté nord et ouest, d'autre part par de grandes baies à claire-voie au sommet de la salle, à 70 pieds de hauteur, 21,33 mètres. De grandes percées circulaires permettent de voir les rangées de bibliothèques en chêne clair, alignées sur les différents étages du bâtiment. L'espace entre les deux murs de brique et béton, est réservé, outre à une partie de la collection, aux espaces de services. Au pied des structures verticales de l'enveloppe extérieure, aux premier et deuxième étages, les cabinets de lecture individuels profitent de la lumière naturelle, des volets en chêne clair permettant de s'en préserver si nécessaire.

Il y a environ 450 places (entre la salle de lecture, les cabinets de lecture individuels et des espaces de repos confortables au troisième étage). Le quatrième étage est réservé à deux salles de séminaire, à une galerie réservée à la préservation et exposition occasionnelle de livres rares, auxquels s'ajoutent une terrasse.

A protégé of Gustav Klimt—and, if anything, even more controversial—Austrian painter Egon Schiele (1890-1918) is increasingly seen as a major figurative painter of the early 20th century. He expressed the discord of his time in distorted figures and portraits noted for their intensity and raw sexuality, and his paintings and drawings mark Schiele as an early exponent of Expressionism. Boasting outstanding color reproductions on nearly every page, this art book is both affordable and compact (measuring just under 7½ inches square) yet offers a surprisingly wide-ranging survey of this important modern artist, with an introductory essay, titles, and captions in six languages.

How am I supposed to resolve this? Outlook keeps marking my email as spam and my IP is not eligible for mitigation, and GMX/Yandex block me straight out because of this.
Please help me resolve this. Thank you very much.

A: Found the answer. swaks simply doesn't support DKIM, and "key not found in DNS" is because I put the selector in the key.table file wrong!

WFP Delivers Food To 52,000 People Cut Off From Aid In South Sudan
JUBA – A multi-agency convoy led by the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) has delivered lifesaving humanitarian assistance to families trapped for four months by increased insecurity in, and around, the town of Yei in South Sudan.
The convoy of 38 trucks transporting one month of food rations including sorghum, yellow-split peas, and vegetable oil from WFP, water, sanitation and child protection items from the UN Children's Agency (UNICEF) and shelter items from the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) arrived in the town on Friday
"We have deployed a rapid response team to provide food to nearly 52,000 people who have been cut off from food supplies for four months," said WFP South Sudan Country Director Joyce Luma.
"Yei is traditionally a place where people can grow their own food but since violence intensified in July people have been forced to leave their crops to rot in the field while they remain hungry. We are bringing assistance now but we are advocating for free and safe movement so that people can cater for their own food needs."
Following an outbreak of violence in the South Sudanese capital of Juba in July, there has been a spike in conflict in the southern part of the country which is the most agriculturally productive region. This has kept farmers from their fields and disrupted food markets – as there have been ambushes along trade routes including the road between Juba and Yei.
The insecurity has also forced tens of thousands of people to flee their homes for safety in neighboring Uganda; estimates indicate that 295,000 South Sudanese refugees have arrived in Uganda since July.
The current response in Yei comes after WFP provided 9,000 people with food at the end of October in the villages of Logwili and Loka West in Lainya County where people have also fled into bushes as a result of increased insecurity.
With the support of donors including Canada, the European Union, Finland, Germany, Japan, Luxemburg, Norway, Switzerland, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the United States of America, as well as several private donors, WFP has provided food and nutrition assistance to 3.2 million people in South Sudan this year.
