GLOBAL DATA THEFT OPERATION BY THE CRIMINAL CADRES

ANOTHER ELEMENT OF THE WORLD REVOLUTION EXPOSED

Saturday 5 January 2008 17:41

BRITISH AUTHORITIES CAUGHT UP IN THIS WEB OF CRIMINALITY

DIRECTED BY CRIMINAL CADRES, PROBABLY BASED IN TEXAS

POINDEXTER’S ‘TOTAL AWARENESS PROGRAM' IMPLEMENTED VIA GLOBAL THEFT

THE COUNTER-REVOLUTION MUST GET A GRIP ON WHAT IT IS UP AGAINST

• SEE 26TH DECEMBER REPORT FOR FINANCIAL FRAUDS BEHIND THE 'SUBPRIME' CRISIS

• The report dated 2nd January 2008 is accessible, along with all the earlier Wantagate reports since April 2006, in the Archive. It has not been changed. Further shootings have taken place and the bloodbath that we predicted in these reports, arising from the fact that the ruthless criminal cadres refuse to relinquish the funds that they have stolen, is continuing. 'Eliminations' are known also to be taking place all over the world, but it is not known how long this phase of the de facto counter-revolution will last, or even whether it will escalate into war (as has, of late, reportedly been hinted at by some of the aggrieved 'country' payees).

Our expectation is that brutal steps are and will continue to be taken and that there will be no let-up in the tension for some time. To give just one example of how evil these people are, funds have been stolen within the banks even AFTER the shootings that have been reported to date.

The report appended here exposes ANOTHER dimension of the Fascist assault on civilisation.

It does not mean that we will not be reverting to other matters at the appropriate time. It means that now is the time to make it clear how IMMENSE is the criminalist offensive against us all, and why no further delay in mounting the ongoing de facto counter-revolution could have been tolerated.

THE DATA THEFT DIMENSION IS NOT 'ACCIDENTAL': THIS IS AN ORCHESTRATED OFFENSIVE
This report addresses a hitherto obscured dimension of the criminalists' headlong revolutionary offensive to steal and acquire by all possible nefarious means the assets of others, everywhere: in this category, by means of data theft. The notion that the data theft epidemic is just happenstance is as naive as the notion, lodged in some people's minds, that the developments that we have had to report in these postings 'can't be true'. There is no difference between this complacent mentality and that of Western populations in the 1930s and 1940s, who chose to believe that the Holocaust could not be 'for real', just because the crimes alleged were so 'inconceivable' and horriffic.


MASSIVE DATA THEFT OFFENSIVE IN EVIDENCE
The Editor of this service, having identified a body of data giving details of MASSIVE ongoing theft of computerised information, proceeded to manipulate the data from its somewhat disorganised state, to observe whether any clear patterns would emerge.

By reorganising all the information into alphabetical order, the Editor discovered a truly horrifying display of identity theft which has been taking place on such a huge scale that it can only represent a coordinated criminal operation. This is such a massive undertaking that we are certain it is being orchestrated by the World Revolution. The data displayed in alphabetical order below represents reported thefts of computerised data reported in the public domain in 2006 and 2007 alone.

It is understood that the British Parliament has taken a dim view of the multiple lapses of care that components of the decadent British official structures have allowed to occur in recent months. It is also clear from the relevant reports that MPs have absolutely no clue what they have been talking about. They appear to have assumed that the observed thefts of confidential data have arisen due to carelessness, stupidity, laziness, or all of the above. The ONE cause of this epidemic that they have omitted to consider is that it is AN ORCHESTRATED OPERATION.

Okay, most of these MPs have no inkling that we are in the midst of a hectic phase of the World Revolution. But taking such clear ignorance as a given, surely SOMEONE in Parliament has the brains to think outside the box, and to ask the question: Could these data thefts be orchestrated? The answer, which is glaringly evident from the huge list of data thefts shown below, is that THAT MUST BE THE ONLY EXPLANATION.

While on the subject of the failings of UK Government structures, we suggest that someone in authority in Whitehall (who is not corrupt) should take a look at 'contractors' like ED and Entrust, and should ask themselves whether there may be a possibility that such organisations may have a criminal dimension, i.e. may be covers inter alia for data theft, which opens up multiple scamming opportunities for the criminal cadres affiliated with the World Revolution (in case you didn't know, that's the way it is). It would be no earthly use the Editor contacting Whitehall mandarins about this, because they always know better than 'outsiders'. That's why we mention this point here.

THE EPIDEMIC OF CRIMINAL IDENTITY THEFT
In November 2007, HM Customs & Excise was roundly criticised for allowing the personal details of 25 million UK files to vanish en route from an office in the northeast of England, to the National Audit Office in Central London. What was not mentioned in the many press reports on this subject was that TNT, which provides the ‘internal’ courier service for the tax and customs authority, is under Dutch ownership, and that Dutch organised crime is prominent in data and identity theft.

The Editor thought of informing HM Customs and Excise of this specific knowledge, but since on an earlier occasion when he had attempted to provide that entity with detailed information about the criminality of a foreign tax authority he had received no response, he decided not to bother.

Why waste time trying to get bovine UK tax officials to understand that they are being targeted by organised crime, and that this data theft was NO ACCIDENT, he thought – and then got on with other matters. When confidence in governance slumps to the depths of demoralisation prevalent in Britain today, the citizen retains little incentive to provide the authorities with the benefit of his knowledge of what may be going on in a sector in which he is qualified to provide assistance.

Rather than adopt that course, therefore, the Editor has obtained a body of data theft intelligence that is in the public domain but which, crucially, was presented for public consumption in such a manner that no clear pattern of criminal activity could be observed. When these tell-tale data were manipulated, however, a truly horrifying picture emerged, as shown below.

ELECTRONIC 'TEMPEST' ATTACKS AS DATA WAS BEING MANIPULATED
While the Editor was organising this data for two of our print publications, severe and previously never experienced electronic interference with what the Editor was then doing overwhelmed the computer system and screen. Specifically, whenever the Editor came to a military entry, all of a sudden the screen and image became unstable and vacillated violently, before vanishing from the point at which text had not been saved.

Our system saves every 0.25 of a minute, and the Editor is also in the habit of saving inputted data to separate media frequently. With the assistance of data sticks and his separate hard drives, the Editor preserved all the saved work and every time these attacks happened, over the space of nearly two days, the data was retrieved and placed back onto the template.

The paranoid and duplicitous US intelligence community, which notoriously operates on the basis of lies and deception, in accordance with the deception model established in the 19th century by Stieber in Prussia and through him, in Russia, and which had been elaborated from known Jesuit procedures, is in the habit of clumsily blowing its cover all the time.

By signalling so blatantly that where the Editor was going with this data was 'not appreciated', the cadres concerned had revealed to the Editor that what he was doing with the data – reorganising it and placing it in alphabetical order, a tedious process that took at least a day and a half – would be likely to reveal some interesting information.

And so it has proved. They shot themselves in the foot, didn't they?

Hence we are hereby able to reveal a truly horrendous identity theft offensive, which is of such immense proportions that it can ONLY be the work of malevolent (criminal) intelligence cadres, who are the only Dark Forces with the (stolen) resources to mount an operation as huge as this.

And since, while the Editor was in the very act of manipulating the data into alphabetical order, signals were being directed to the Editor (by electronic intervention means, or via successive TEMPEST attacks) that confirmed his suspicions on this score, we attach the gravest importance to what is revealed. This may be our most alarming background exposure to date.

CONTROL THROUGH ELECTRONIC IMPULSES
It is crystal clear from this reformatted data that the criminal enterprise known as the Central Intelligence Agency and its subsidiary intelligence entities are engaged in a concerted data theft operation, coordinated with organised crime, which is intended to provide access to the personal affairs of as many targeted individuals and organisations as can be handled, worldwide.

This colossal operational offensive is being (or has been) run in parallel with the vast fraudulent finance and theft epidemic which has been the main subject of these reports for the past twenty months. Identity theft is being developed on this gargantuan scale in order to yield innumerable data-mined ‘benefits’ for criminal intelligence, for organised crime and the ‘Black’ components of the Illuminati (there are certain Illuminati groups that are benevolent, which sounds like a contradiction in terms, but it’s true).

But first, examination of the data will reveal a significant concentration on hospitals, services for children and young people, services by extension (and specifically) for old people, and the military.

Why should this be the case?

Hospitals are targets because information on the deceased is of priority concern to the criminal cadres, so that corrupt professional advisers handling estates and bereaved family members, can be activated. Where elderly people are likely to perish due to Alzheimer’s (induced by aspartame, a chemical sweetener promoted by the war criminal Donald Rumsfeld, which has the ‘advantage’ that old people can be persuaded to hand over their assets to criminal operatives in the nursing and medical professions), their assets and estates are coveted.

Very young children and babies are targets for identity theft following bust-ups between parents, fomented by the strains imposed on relationships by the permissive society, which has itself been fostered by the ‘Black’ intelligence community serving the interests of the World Revolution.

Stolen identities are then used for real estate and other fraudulent documentation purposes. Affiliated crime families such as the Sucato Crime Family and the East Valley Group in Arizona are heavily involved. Phoenix, AZ, is an Illuminati centre: hence its name. Massive real estate frauds based on identity theft are resident there.

Thefts of military data, including identity thefts, have obvious national security implications.
