12,000 people from all over the world converged on Fort Benning's
|
|
Columbus, GA gate protesting what they say is tax-supported
|
|
training of central american death squads using techniques
|
|
they do not approve of.
|
|
Over 4,400 people risked arrest crossing onto the base
|
|
marching to the SOA where latin american "students" were
|
|
barricaded in lock-down by the base commander hoping to
|
|
inhibit their awareness.

NOT VERY CLOSE TO GROUNDHOG DAY
|
|
|
|
Did you see that full moon? Wow. Too bad it
|
|
didn't "fall" on ati day, eh?
|
|
I'm prime anarchist and here's my short little
|
|
column before a big old fat turkey of a 'zine.
|
|
Ack Tiv Imes. Issue 199. Brought to you by
|
|
Dr. Du-More's toothbrushes. New! Reduces the danger
|
|
of gingivitis, reduces plaque build-up. Du-More,
|
|
Inc. Rogers, Ark. 72757. We're not just for
|
|
fornicating governors anymore.
|
|
I just watched a DTV ad telling me I can pay
|
|
with VISA, MC OR Western Union. A 4-inch High-
|
|
Def TV screaming at me while I pump gas at a
|
|
Shell station. How stupid!
|
|
Dear Hotel Guest,
|
|
Can you imagine how many tons of towels are
|
|
unnecessarily washed every day in all the hotels all
|
|
over the world and the monstrous amount of washing
|
|
powder needed which thereby pollutes our water?
|
|
PLEASE DECIDE: Towels thrown into the bath or shower
|
|
means: PLEASE EXCHANGE. Towels replaced on the towel
|
|
rail means: I'LL USE IT AGAIN.
|
|
Thnx,
|
|
the Management.

LETTUCE FOR YOUR HEAD
|
|
|
|
I recently received an e-mail regarding my
|
|
review at amazon.com from someone who said
|
|
we seemed to think alike. The e-mail recommended
|
|
a book packed with some of the most thought
|
|
provoking concepts I have ever come across.
|
|
I'm passing on the information with the hope
|
|
that you receive some of the same enjoyment
|
|
the book brought me.
|
|
The book is entitled An Encounter with a
|
|
Prophet and is located at:
|
|

|
|
Enjoy,
|

Dear ATI,
|
|
Love the misprint on Bush.
|
|
Something very funny(Ha-ha) about that.
|
|
Do you REALLY THINK they are going to
|
|
close the SOA? Yeah, like they shut off
|
|
the contaminated wells outside Clark Air
|
|
Force base in the Phillipines after they
|
|
found out they were malforming the kids...
|
|
and then turned them back on the day after
|
|
some Phillipine senator came by to inspect.
|
|
Watch out.
|
|
The CIA slush fund will keep that school
|
|
going for years either under this name or another.
|
|
Your sceptical pal in Boston.

"Just in case you think the FBI is not on the job, I have received
|
|
a true intercept (and this is not made up...it is not Saturday Night
|
|
Live) that the FBI made of itself while conducting an investigation
|
|
in San Diego. It was sent to me by a friend of mine who used to be
|
|
with counterintelligence in Washington. It is called "The FBI Pizza
|
|
Call." FBI agents conducted a raid of a San Diego psychiatric hospital
|
|
that was under investigation for medical insurance fraud. After hours
|
|
of reviewing thousands of medical records, the dozens of agents worked
|
|
up quite an appetite. The agent in charge of the investigation called
|
|
a nearby pizza parlor to order a quick dinner for his colleagues.
|
|
The following telephone conversation took place and was recorded by
|
|
the FBI because they were taping the hospital."
|
|
|
|
Agent: "Hello. I would like to order 19 large pizzas and 67 cans of soda."
|
|
Pizza Man: "And where would you like them delivered?"
|
|
Agent: "We're over at the psychiatric hospital."
|
|
Pizza Man: "To the psychiatric hospital?"
|
|
Agent: "That's right. I'm an FBI agent."
|
|
Pizza Man: "You're an FBI agent?"
|
|
Agent: "That's correct. Just about everybody here is."
|
|
Pizza Man: "And you're at the psychiatric hospital?"
|
|
Agent: "That's correct. And make sure you don't go through the front doors.
|
|
We have them locked. You will have to go
|
|
around the back to the service entrance to deliver the pizzas."
|
|
Pizza Man: "And you say you're all FBI agents?"
|
|
Agent: "That's right. How soon can you have them here?"
|
|
Pizza Man: "And everyone at the psychiatric hospital is an FBI agent?"
|
|
Agent: "That's right. We've been here all day, and we're starving."
|
|
Pizza Man: "How are you going to pay for all of this?"
|
|
Agent: "I have my checkbook right here."
|
|
Pizza Man: "And you're all FBI agents?"
|
|
Agent: "That's right. Everyone here is an FBI agent.
|
|
Can you remember to bring the pizzas and sodas to
|
|
the service entrance in the rear? We have the
|
|
front doors locked."
|
|
Pizza Man: "I don't think so."

Did ANY Gannett-owned papers

cover the anti-SOA demonstration or

|
even reprint a tiny AP non-story blurb?
|
|
I found 3 for 3 Gannett papers near me
|

who did NOT cover it at all, and none
|
|
even reprinted the AP.
|
|
I don't have the energy or resources
|

to go much deeper with this on my own,
|

so if any of our humble readers here, -

or those who get this forwarded -
|

would have a Gannett paper near them,
|
|
would that they report to:
|

ati@etext.org whether they did or
|

didn't? We'll publish the communal

PINOCHET-ISH NOTES TYPED IN BY "PAP."

(Prime Anarchist Productions)
|
|
|
|
"...meanwhile at home the drama continued."
|
|
--reprinted from "An Unfinished Song"
|
|
a book by Joan Jara
|
|
"CIA agents were said to be pouring into the
|
|
country. [Chile] A plot to assassinate Allende
|
|
was uncovered and the police seemed strangely
|
|
slow to act aginst right-wing terrorists."
|
|
--ibid
|
|
"Now the corporations began in earnest to plan
|
|
revenge and gave backing to the destabilization
|
|
plan already launched by the CIA and ITT. In Oct.
|
|
1972, the Kennecott Copper..."
|
|
""
|
|
"Little by little we edge forward until it is our
|
|
turn to pass the long platform where Allende is
|
|
sitting with all the leaders of Popular Unity...they
|
|
must have been here for hours already...he looks tired...
|
|
One by one we recognise and salute them, although we
|
|
notice that the new Commanders-in-Chief of the Armed
|
|
Forces, Merino, Leigh and Pinochet, are not among them.
|
|
Everyone is shouting 'Allende, Allende, el pueblo te
|
|
defiende!' and 'El pueblo unido jamas sera vencido!'"
|
|
"" p. 229
|
|
"...military orders announcing that Allende had been
|
|
given an ultimatum to surrender by the commanders of
|
|
the Armed Forces led by General Augusto Pinochet...
|
|
that unless he surrendered by midday the Moneda Palace
|
|
would be bombed." --ibid. p. 235
|
|
[ed note: I took this book out to prepare my Victor
|
|
Jara tribute song "Venceremos." I got it on interlibrary
|
|
loan which took me much longer this time than the first
|
|
couple times I read this book. I'm typing these notes
|
|
in before returning it, fearing it's the last time
|
|
I'm going to be able to get a copy of this book...

|
|
|
Memphis and Birmingham feel a million miles away.
|
|
Gandhi, MLK, Jello Biafra, and Bill Hicks seem like a failure.
|
|
I fear life itself at times. I fear my fellow man. I doubt my own
|
|
god sometimes. I question karma.
|
|
I have been over that mountain numerous times now, I have seen
|
|
it all and I'm just 35 yet I feel like a tired old spirit right
|
|
now. A walking dead zombie something worse than "Jacob's Ladder."
|
|
My life is something X-Files is afraid to touch.

I have climbed up to that beautiful top and I have to say the

next road is paved with the bones of your ancestors, your children
|

and yourselves.

Death, carnage, and Amway representatives.

disguised as used car salesmen - and used car televangelists

The road to hell is paved with you and me, my friends.
|
|
You and me. Beware false profits.
|
|
We are not doomed, we are worse than doomed. We are the new dead.
|

We have been sleeping like lying dogs for decades now. We are puppets

We are the new dead and they have called us to dance.

12,000 of us took over a city last weekend.

Many people thanked us.
|

Some are wearing wanted posters on their T-Shirts
|

with our pictures on them. Who will tell the people?
|
|
There are no Dostoyevskys, no George Orwells, just people

telling each other something's horribly foul but
|
|
we just don't know exactly what.

We know what, per se, but we just can't quite
|
|
assemble it into reason, analysis, news or
|
|
disseminatable truth.
|
|
There appears to be no balance, just emotion, gut
|
|
feeling -- like the Woodstein and Bernward days.
|
|
There are no Orwells, no Hemmingways, just you
|

and me discussing trauma, tragedy, truth-in-

marketing of Jesus.

Poem For Ingrid
|
|
by Marco Capelli Frucht
|
|
|
|
I'm gonna get faceless for a second
|
|
|
|
I didn't know someone named Ingrid
|
|
I knew who she was
|
|
I didn't know I had
|
|
Hundreds of friends who all knew her
|
|
She died last February sometime
|
|
She was killed in Columbia
|
|
She's an American
|
|
She's a Menominee
|
|
And she's from Northern Wisconsin
|
|
And she grew up in New York
|
|
|
|
She died with two other people
|
|
In Columbia
|
|
|
|
They dragged her body to Venezuela
|
|
And tried to show that it must be
|
|
Some leftist guerrillas that killed these
|
|
Three outside agitators
|
|
Who carried no weapons
|
|
And bring milk to little children
|
|
Once a day
|
|
|
|
Ingrid was killed and that is
|
|
Falling apart now as it's being
|
|
Proven
|
|
|
|
That paramilitaries killed her
|
|
And now I feel very faceless
|
|
Because I knew lots of people who knew her
|
|
|
|
On my way to Washington DC yesterday
|
|
I was greeted by her first cousin
|
|
Who made this art
|
|
As her grieving process the last two months
|
|
|
|
Because she lost a woman that she loved very much
|
|
Who was killed in Columbia and I am guilty
|
|
|
|
BECAUSE I PAID MY TAXES
|
|
HERE IN THE UNITED STATES
|
|
AND WE SUPPORT THE SCHOOL OF AMERICAS
|
|
And they like to train death squads
|
|
And they're going to kill all of you
|
|
And they're going to kill me for saying it
|
|
|
|
Unless we do something about it.
|
|
|
|
----====----
|
|
|
|
This is a poem I wrote and read in DC last
|
|
may during anti SOA demonstrations.
|
|
It was in a Unitarian Church and the crowd was
|
|
huge because we were basically putting on this
|
|
show for people who couldn't afford the 35$
|
|
to see Pete Seeger, Odetta and Amy Ray that
|
|
nite. Their show was a good cause, as half
|
|
the money went to the SOA protest and half
|
|
went to Nevada Desert Experience but we were
|
|
aware that many of us wouldn't be able to afford
|
|
that. I'd raised the 35 dollars and kept it
|
|
seperate when I went to that, so that I could
|
|
go, but when I was asked to be one of the
|
|
performers at the other event, I'm sure you
|
|
know how easy it was for me to decide where
|
|
to go...
|
|
At any rate, I had Ingrid's cousin's artwork
|
|
in front of me, taller than me, and between
|
|
me and the microphone. (I was a little worried
|
|
I might muffle words but learned later it was fine)
|
|
I read that way up to the point of "I am guilty"
|
|
where I put the allcaps. What I did was drop the
|
|
banner to my feet. And point with my whole hand
|
|
rather than a finger when I said they're
|
|
"going to kill you."
|
|
Many people said afterwards that I scared
|
|
the hell out of them. And one person told
|
|
me he thought I was pointing directly at him.
|
|
He wasn't in the middle either. What I did was
|
|
move my open hand just a little bit in a big
|
|
circle so it included everyone, and my eyes scanned
|
|
the whole room a couple times in those seconds.
|
|
I remember praying afterwards that creator
|
|
never let me use that power for hitleresque
