Rizzutos ‘pulled strings’
Whoops! I’m having a little trouble posting today.
I tried to post something from another article earlier that specifically connected Rizutto with Gaglian’s office, but it didn’t make it.
The link above explains a little about how Vito and his dad are still pulling the strings, and believe me, the connections are international in scope and go to the highest level.
Vito is presently doing 10 years in a federal prison in Colorado for participating in multiple homicides primarily against a rival faction of capos in the Bonanno crime family.
Making a very rich story short, there was a power struggle between Rusty Rastelli and Massino when Massino would get out of prison and take the reins.
As a sign of confidence and respect and acknowledgement of the new power structure, Massino asked Vito to participate in the hits, which he did.
Ten years is a short sentence for multiple homicides, wouldn’t you say?
The link above will bring you up to date a little on what the Rizzuto clan has been up to.
If Kate can locate the other post I tried to do earlier, it would be very revelatory, and as I say, specifically has a sentence that connects Rizzuto to the very practices that Gagliano was involved with in the Public Works office.
You will also notice the specific connection between the Bonnanos (Rizzuto is a Bonnano) and the West End Gang.
Needless to say, none of these arrests would be occurring if the Liberals were still in power, maintaining their business relationship with the Italian Mafia.
Russia: Why The Chekist Mind-Set Matters
October 15, 2007 (RFE/RL) — No one knows how many people were working for or with the KGB when the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991. That information was never revealed in a country where even rudimentary lustration never got off the ground.
Journalist Yevgenia Albats, in her 1992 book “A State Within A State,” estimates that 720,000 people actively worked for the agency (across the entire Soviet Union) and some 2.9 million “cooperated” with it. To a large and, perhaps ultimately, unknowable extent, many of these people now rule Russia and seem well on the way to building an undemocratic system of political and economic control that can last into the foreseeable future.
Sociologist Olga Kryshtanovskaya estimates that 26 percent of Russia’s senior political and commercial leadership are siloviki, the term for people who emerged from the state security organs or the military. If one tries to account for everyone connected with the security organs in one way or another, Kryshtanovskaya’s estimate rises to 78 percent of the elite.

Beria, Lavrenti: Chekist
“Stalin quickly brought Beria up through the ranks of the Communist party, and selected him to head the NKVD in 1938. Stalin used Beria to stage his purges. Under Beria, the NKVD was responsible for the deaths of millions of Russians.” …-

Pardon me, Neil, that point wasn’t actually directed at you, but at others who seem to think there has been no foreign intervention in Afghanistan between Russian and latest attack on AQ/Taliban. Some find it an inconvenient truth that Afghanistan has seen foreign interference ad infinitum. Some almost defend the Taliban as rightful rulers of Afghanistan, when they were installed by foreigners, were in middle of civil war, and didn’t control much of northern part of country, on 9/11. You are also correct when you say Taliban, past and present, have large foreign contingent too.
Some argue Afghanistan can never be occupied; whether or not that is true is irrelevant to me – we have no choice but to prevent terrorists using this failed state as staging/training ground.
Anyway, Neil, didn’t mean to imply you were wrong; I was just adding details to pre-empt the inevitable rebuttal that we are foreign invaders there for Bush oil, and that Taliban have any legitimacy in Afghanistan (they don’t).
Now that we are there, we must also help the Afghan people run their own coutnry, in freedom and dignity, something they’ve never known. While this cannot be imposed at the end of a barrel, we must, as Ted says, bring stability first, then development, then modernization of their political, judicial and economic institutions. At the end of the day, if the Afghan people refuse to let us, then there isn’t much more we can do other than contain (likely brutally) that country.

Arctic Sea-Ice: Another Hockey Stick?
World Climate Report
This figure, labeled as “Sea-ice Extent: Northern Hemisphere” was presented by Al Gore in the book version of his science (fiction) movie An Inconvenient Truth. But is this depiction of the Arctic sea ice extent over the course of the 20th century even close to reality?
Probably not. […]
It looks like Gore has honed his own stick. …-

One other thing to consider .. if Taliban connected groups within Afghanistan are making overtures or accepting dialogue with the Karzai government or NATO military …. it could be because they know that the safe haven of Western Pakistan is going to become very unsafe and not a haven at all in the near future.
Keep an eye out for big deployments of Pakistan army to the West along Afghan’s border!
Another thing is that winter is coming fast and without resources that means DEATH …. the Talibanis may very well be stalling till things look more promising….. that’s why we stay with guns and everything else until the SOB’s are really done!

Is Councillor Darren Hill a wolf in sheep’s clothing? Take a look and you decide.
A simple Google search quickly leads you to his profile page as a city councillor.
http://www.saskatoon.ca/org/ward_councillors/ward1.asp
It also mentions that your city councillor “is honoured to hold the position as Chief Executive Officer and President of Junior Achievement of Saskatchewan (JA), where he is able to encourage young minds to pursue interests in the areas of entrepreneurship and business.”
A socialist encouraging young minds to pursue interests in the areas of entrepreneurship and business? Am I missing something here?
If you haven’t heard already about Darren Hill’s actions see the following:

Why would any of Mulroney’s dealings have anything to do with the current government?
He is a private citizen and his dealings should be handled outside of the political arena.
In fact, it is against parliamentary rules is it not to discuss details of a private citizen’s situations?

Cut’n’run Citoyen Dion & his Liberal gang have given/ceded the Opposition to “Criminal Lawyers”.
Citoyen has abdicated; he and his Librano$ gang are irrelevant/neutered/spayed. Librano$ are stuck in a quagmire.
Quote: “Mr. Trudell and the head of the Criminal Lawyers’ Association, Frank Addario, also criticized Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s decision to declare any motion on the omnibus bill a test of confidence, in effect threatening an election should the opposition amend it.”

Tories set 3-week deadline to clear crime legislation
All four parties have agreed to an extraordinary Commons motion rushing the government’s omnibus crime bill through a special House committee in only three weeks.
The motion, quietly adopted in the Commons shortly before the weekend adjournment last Friday, also guarantees the legislation will be returned to the House for final debate with no amendments if the deadline of midnight, Nov. 22, is not met. …-

BRAVE NEW SCHOOLS
University to students: ‘All whites are racist’
Mandatory program ‘treats’ politically incorrect attitudes
A mandatory University of Delaware program requires residence hall students to acknowledge that “all whites are racist” and offers them “treatment” for any incorrect attitudes regarding class, gender, religion, culture or sexuality they might hold upon entering the school, according to a civil rights group…
….The education program also notes that “reverse racism” is “a term created and used by white people to deny their white privilege.” And “a non-racist” is called “a non-term,” because, the program explains, “The term was created by whites to deny responsibility for systemic racism, to maintain an aura of innocence in the face of racial oppression, and to shift the responsibility for that oppression from whites to people of color (called ‘blaming the victim’).” ….
