I’ve ‘plagiarized’ the full text below from CBS News site to add the the creditability, however, on a personal not I’ll say the US Military being unable to account for 25 percent of what it spends! Well I find this video totally unbelievable… 25%, it can’t be true can it?

(CBS) On Sept. 10, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld declared war. Not on foreign terrorists, “the adversary’s closer to home. It’s the Pentagon bureaucracy,” he said.

He said money wasted by the military poses a serious threat.

“In fact, it could be said it’s a matter of life and death,” he said.

Rumsfeld promised change but the next day – Sept. 11– the world changed and in the rush to fund the war on terrorism, the war on waste seems to have been forgotten.

Just last week President Bush announced, “my 2003 budget calls for more than $48 billion in new defense spending.”

More money for the Pentagon, CBS News Correspondent Vince Gonzales reports, while its own auditors admit the military cannot account for 25 percent of what it spends.

“According to some estimates we cannot track $2.3 trillion in transactions,” Rumsfeld admitted.

$2.3 trillion — that’s $8,000 for every man, woman and child in America. To understand how the Pentagon can lose track of trillions, consider the case of one military accountant who tried to find out what happened to a mere $300 million.

“We know it’s gone. But we don’t know what they spent it on,” said Jim Minnery, Defense Finance and Accounting Service.

Minnery, a former Marine turned whistle-blower, is risking his job by speaking out for the first time about the millions he noticed were missing from one defense agency’s balance sheets. Minnery tried to follow the money trail, even crisscrossing the country looking for records.

“The director looked at me and said ‘Why do you care about this stuff?’ It took me aback, you know? My supervisor asking me why I care about doing a good job,” said Minnery.

He was reassigned and says officials then covered up the problem by just writing it off.

“They have to cover it up,” he said. “That’s where the corruption comes in. They have to cover up the fact that they can’t do the job.”

The Pentagon’s Inspector General “partially substantiated” several of Minnery’s allegations but could not prove officials tried “to manipulate the financial statements.”

Twenty years ago, Department of Defense Analyst Franklin C. Spinney made headlines exposing what he calls the “accounting games.” He’s still there, and although he does not speak for the Pentagon, he believes the problem has gotten worse.

“Those numbers are pie in the sky. The books are cooked routinely year after year,” he said.

Another critic of Pentagon waste, Retired Vice Admiral Jack Shanahan, commanded the Navy’s 2nd Fleet the first time Donald Rumsfeld served as Defense Secretary, in 1976.

In his opinion, “With good financial oversight we could find $48 billion in loose change in that building, without having to hit the taxpayers.”

AUSTRALIA… A GOLD MINE FOR CROOKS & POLITICIAN/LAWYERS FACILITATORS

At last a breath of fresh air!

My feelings regarding new MP’s staff cuts it was stupid and shows their own lack of confidence and guilt, if anything because they are relative Parliamentarian Newbies they actually need more Staff. I can understand that MSM which is constantly on their backs they are understandably a little paranoid, but lets face it both the major Parties have little to crow about.

Now is the ideal time to create a major 3rd Party of successful team oriented to get the best possible results for all Australians, not just the few. Once we were a place where virtually anybody who needed a home could afford one, now we are governed by Greed and they are getting greedier… it’s a ‘who dies with the most toys wins’ sickness.

Now I know some may look at my woeful writing skills, it’s not because I’m stupid… far from it I’m told I was by the Psychologist who tested me afte my TBI I was in the top 3% IQ wise and my Abstract Reasoning apparently off the chart, it seems I am unique, however, I have something that’s way better, I’m a Bush-boy’; a white boy from Kenya, who had not stepped into a school till I was about 8 years of age and that was in England; with little or no social engineering, nobody can make me do anything I don’t want to do… other than my dearly departed mother.

I did not study, I listened and ask questions until I understood… if you understand you don’t need to study, I was in fact 1 of 6 out of 123 who started Metallurgy that finished in minimum time, I then went on to do Mechanical Engineering where again I was retrenched, that’s now twice in Metallurgy; once as a result of through corporate take over, where Lawyers & Bankers insisting on reducing the workforce was the way to make profit-line better (morons) and then once Engineering due to massive managerial theft and once as a result of stupidity on a massive scale which ended up in over 400 workers losing their jobs.

The irony was I warned them what would happen, and after returning from annual leave they actually attempted to blame Me… it wasn’t luck that I had made an entry in my personal/Work Log, nor was it luck that I’d kept my Memos with quotes from each managers on the back of my personal Memo of the 4 managers when I attempted to rectify their mistakes, it’s not workers ruining the Australia’s Manufacturing, from my experience it’s the sociopathic managers and Layers/Politicians like Howard.

It makes no sense to not having a viable multi facetted industry.

Question

Well it’s; as you would say, ‘that’s a hard question to answer because there many potential tricky possibilities, The World Bank, The Military Industrialists, The US, London, The Rothschild’s, Rockefeller’s, Koch brothers, Bill Gates, The MSM, the list goes on and on.

However, my instincts tell me that the aforementioned are really the Nouveau riche (early rich from a distance past) more likely the Vieux riche (realize old old money)

In my opinion it’s the various contrived Religions and that designed and in fact plagiarized older religions in order to dominate the low class people and the Catholic system used the Inquisition over roughly 700 years (1231 A.D.to July 15, 1834) to suppress, kill dissenters and steal their properties and wealth or in fact coerce people into give the church 10% of their income.

It wasn’t until 7 November 1992 that the Pope admitted that Galileo that the earth circled the sun… the Romans and the Ancient Greek Aristarchus of Samos knew in around mid 200 bce. Obviously this was an act of terrorising decenters for example anybody who believed that the Earth orbited the Sun or even the fact that Earth was a sphere.
