XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX THURSDAY, MAY 13, 1999 19:22:44 UTC XXXXX JUSTICE DEPT CONSIDERS PROSECUTING GERTZ FOR UNLAWFUL POSSESSION OF CLASSIFIED MATERIAL PUBLISHED IN NEW BOOK Exclusive The Justice Department has considered prosecuting WASHINGTON TIMES reporter Bill Gertz for unlawful possession of classified material, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned -- material that is set to be published in a new blockbuster book! Coming next week from every spooks' favorite reporter: BETRAYAL. NY TIMES nuke and spy writer Gerth may have just won the Pulitzer, but the project Gertz has been working on in secret for over a year has now been activated and lands in bookstores on Monday. -- Gertz offers intelligence, also featured in the upcoming Cox Report, including this nugget: After stealing secrets from the U.S., China has tested a neutron warhead seven times! [America, which designed it, never tested it.] -- The First detailed interview with Navy Lt. Jack Daly, the officer who was lazed [shot by a laser] from a Russian merchant ship in 1997 off of Washington State's Puget Sound. Gertz, for the first time, has the officer's whole story of how he was hung out to dry. The State Department tipped off the Russians in advance of a search of the ship. -- A top-secret CIA memo exposes how China and Pakistan collaborated secretly to fool the United States about illicit nuclear sales. The document is included in the appendix. -- The secret Executive Order signed by Clinton on missile defense. That and another document [both reprinted] show that the administration has no plans to deploy a national missile defense outside the ABM treaty. And since the ABM treaty prohibits defending national territory or even preparing to do so, any claims to be considering it are bogus. The missile d chapter also has lots of inside stuff on why we're defenseless. Interesting in light of China's recent threat to take unspecified action against us for the Belgrade Embassy bombing. -- The North Korea chapter reveals how Madeleine Albright lied to Congress about Pyongyang's continuing development of nuclear weapons in order to protect its much-vaunted Agreed Framework, that was supposed to have halted the program back in the early 1990s. -- Secret documents reveal how Russia's nuclear weapons control is weakening. And much more... Gertz's access to highly classified State Department and Pentagon documents has completely unnerved the White House. But for those who feel the government is keeping too many secrets from the taxpaying public, Gertz has become an underground hero. "The Justice Department will never file charges against Bill," predicted one WASHINGTON TIMES editor on Thursday. "They are scared of what he knows, and what he will report next." In any other era, many of the Gertz revelations presented in BETRAYAL would have become solo news cycles that would have rocked a nation. But citizens have turned numb - glazing over the details of a world turned hot and dangerous. In the past few days my life has been revolving around the mile markers along Route 1 in the Florida Keys. Been swimming with the fish, talking back to the thunder storms, sharing dinner with parrots in this paradise, dodging the incoming missiles from China, counting down the minutes until I get lazed by a ship hanging off shore that I just know is Russian. Thanks for the nightmares, Bill Gertz. --------------------------------------------------------- Filed by Matt Drudge in Key Largo MM 102 Reports are moved when circumstances warrant drudgereport.com (c)DRUDGE REPORT 1999 Not for reproduction without permission of the author5/13/99 4:42 PM

WARNING War in Yugoslavia may be about to take a major turn for the worse. I fear that the US beloved leader may be about to place "Peacekeepers" on the land. I'm sure we will be reminded over and over that these are not ground troops, but peacekeepers. This will simply be another in a great string of untruths with the sole intent to rewrite the recent history of this period of leadership. Yeltsin has already warned of spreading war -- and even world war -- if we were to have missiles go astray, like with China, and they were to hit Russian property. There are multiple countries on the borders of Yugoslavia gathering troops -- "just in case". With each bomb the USA drops, the potential for other countries to join this mess grows greater. If war spreads to Europe, start digging a hole. This war should never have begun. Its proposed intent was to stop the "atrocities". There were about 100,000 refugees in the past FIVE YEARS. Now, in a few short weeks, with this compassionate war, there are over a MILLION refugees. I've seen reports of over 100,000 people now dead. Does this make you question not only the results of this war but also the intent? The Serbs are considered Russia's allies. Yeltsin has already suggested that if the US sends troops, then they may have too as well. Even if there is a staged "peace", with US peacekeepers left -- how long and how much money do you think this will cost? Inflation went out of control during Vietnam. Couple this with a record US trade deficit, corporate earnings going down, depression in almost every industry, things getting worse by the day in in Asia, Latin America, and Europe, and Internet stocks sitting on huge PAPER profits -- and you have disaster waiting to happen. Only the stock market is sitting on prosperity -- not manufacturers, farmers, miners, oil drillers, computer sellers, etc. etc. etc. Look at the countries that have suffered major economic downturns -- Asia, China, South Korea, Japan, Russia. Global economies are in a shambles. Every major economic forecaster has been saying for a long time now that this market must correct or it may suffer a collapse. And true collapses are almost always followed by depression. SOROS (gg), LYNCH, BUFFETT -- all warn of possible CRASH, yet the gambling goes on and on. I have taken part in this. It is hard not to when you see stocks rising 20-30 points in a day. SOROS' NOTE-- it is also easy to get burned quickly. Greenspan even hinted in a round-about way that markets such as these could fall 30% or 40%! But none of this matters because there is no INFLATION! Right? Wrong! There is inflation in wages. Many corporations are paying huge salaries in stock and stock options. This huge wage inflation feeds the inflation in stock prices. There is also huge inflation in Real Estate -- also being fed from the wage inflation. Try and buy some land just about anywhere and tell me there is no inflation. But since the wages are in stock and options, it doesn't show as wage inflation. There is so much "shady" accounting going on that no one really knows what's happening under their noses. If you have read this thread in its entirety, then you know what I believe the world is being set up for -- the AntiChrist. If you simply want to look at it from a humanistic approach, then I would be buying some more Gold and preparing for trouble. The love of money is the ROOT of ALL evil. And it will be this love that will be the downfall of a people who ignore all the signs placed for their benefit within the Bible. I remain, SOROS ps none of the above is for investment advice -- simply a batty old man rambling on and on and on and on
