BTK killer blames 'demon' for murders

WICHITA (AP) — Confessed BTK serial killer Dennis Rader made his first public apology for the murders that horrified a community for a quarter-century, blaming a "demon" that got inside him at a young age.


*****
Rader, 60, said his problems began in grade school, with his sexual fantasies that were "just a little bit weirder" than other people's.
"Somewhere along the line, someone had to pick something up from me somewhere that there was a problem," he said. "They should have identified it."
Rader said he felt for Dale Fox when he saw him cry on television while talking about the 1977 strangulation of Fox's daughter Nancy — a crime Rader has admitted — and said his own relatives also suffer.
"I am going to pay for it with a life sentence. The final victims are my ... family," he said.

In other words, “why didn’t some liberal psychoanalyst save me? Don’t they care about humanity?” Or maybe he is reaching out for exorcism.

Wonder how his ‘demon’ got in there? Could it have been severe childhood sexual abuse? That was found to be the case for Andrea Yates, the Texas mother who drowned her kids and got the death penalty, as I recall.

Observation: Rader accepts his ‘life sentence’ – essential worthlessness. That should be strengthened to “no right to exist”. Society puts him down like the sick puppy he is.

‘Final victims – my family’. In his head; as if he cared. If his grotesque criminality was, indeed, the result of childhood abuse, revenge would be the motive – unconscious, probably, always being a “nice boy” in front of his abusers and peers. “Once president of his Lutheran church”, USA Today adds.

But this is Kansas, home of Sen. Sam Brownback, who happens to have just been mentioned in connection with inciting instability in Iran:

“Clearly, a large number of people in the world are interested in discrediting the Iranian government and the newly elected president, even when they must resort to outright lies or absurdly twisted logic. The MEK, who participated in the Iranian Revolution of 27 years ago but were cut out of power six months later, still harbor fantasies of marching on Tehran and taking over the nation. They have created a shadow government outside of Iran, and have a coterie of aging troops massed near the Iranian border in Iraq with the blessing of the United States government. In an astonishingly effective political coup, they have co-opted a number of American legislators who support them with American taxpayer dollars. Among them are Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, Sen. Sam Brownback of Kansas and Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen of Florida. The MEK has somehow convinced these American officials that they plan to bring "democracy" to Iran. The fact that they are still on the U.S. government list of terrorist groups, having killed American citizens during the time of the shah, seems not to faze Santorum, Brownback or Ros-Lehtinen.”

Could all this BTK (“Bind Tortute Kill”) mass killer hype be part of Sen. Brownback’s running campaign for re-election on the “Kill Iran, Too” ticket?

Weird thing about the Iran election, condemned as not satisfying the basic requirements of democracy by George W. Bush, as pointed out by W.O. Beeman in “Anatomy of a Neocon Smear” is that NO MATTER WHO WON, a faction that hoped to get the United States to invade Iran to protect Israel WAS DETERMINED TO UNDERMINE IT.

“American neoconservatives were clearly not to be deprived of their cherished canard that the "mullahs were manipulating the election." Certain that Ahmadinejad's rival, former president Ayatollah Ali Akbar Hashemi-Rafsanjani, would win, they first denounced his comeback as "due not to popular demand, but to machinations of mullahs," as Danielle Pletka asserted in The New York Times on June 16, before the final voting. Once Ahmadinejad had been declared the surprise victor, the neoconservatives began to denounce him as the candidate of religious leader Ali Khamene'i, claiming that the election was fixed by the clerical establishment. Clearly, the election was to be demonized, whoever won.” (ibid.)

Speaking of demons, the smear was that Ahmadinejad had been among the Iranian students taking Americans hostage in l978. Ex-hostages were dug up who said he looked like one of the men in the picture, who wasn’t him at all. “It was all a lie,” says Beeman.

Threads to eternity

The MEK, as described above, is surely the remnant of Ahmed Chalabi’s old outfit, which links with “Curveball” – source of false intelligence on Iraq’s ‘mobile bio-chemical’ truck labs, as reported by the NY Times’ Judith Miller to prove Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. One of the cards in the pack of lies. This thread hung like a proverbial sword in the air over the sharply rising inquiries concerning the Rove-Novak connection in the Valorie (Plame) Wilson’s case.

Another card in the deck, or pack of lies told to justify war on Iraq, was alleged shipment of yellowcake uranium ore from Niger to Iraq exposed by her husband as not true. And, known to be not true responsible persons, but nevertheless getting included in Secretary of State Colin Powell’s Feb. 2003 speech to the United Nations. This was the high-water mark of deception, blasting apart the integrity of the solemn word of America, as a nation among sovereign nations. It chose the path of lying. There is an eternality to that. The sun will never rise again on America as great. That is the thread of history unfolded and unfolding here.

The one who broke the story that Joseph Wilson’s wife was CIA and possibly influencing his appointment was Robert Novak, right-wing columnist and regular on major CNN political shows -- Crossfire, Capitol Gang. The whole deal had already been laid out, it says here, and Novak’s broad audience guaranteed that his “two sources” would get quoted widely. In addition, Time magazine – its all Time-Warner/AOL, after all – is contacted through M. Cooper. This has been publically confirmed to have been Karl Rove, while he lyingly denies what is irrelevant to the main charge. That would be: co-operating with those he knew to be fixing the facts to favor war.

Now, Newsweek’s Michael Isikoff has been brought in to aim Novak like a smoking gun at this administration’s head – or aim Novak and Rove at America’s head.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8445696/site/newsweek/
\ “The e-mails surrendered by Time Inc., which are largely between Cooper and his editors, show that one of Cooper's sources was White House deputy chief of staff Karl Rove, according to two lawyers who asked not to be identified because they are representing witnesses sympathetic to the White House. Cooper and a Time spokeswoman declined to comment. But in an interview with NEWSWEEK, Rove's lawyer, Robert Luskin, confirmed that Rove had been interviewed by Cooper for the article. It is unclear, however, what passed between Cooper and Rove.”

Why is Judith Miller taking the fall while Novak goes free? My hunch is that the New York Times fell for a sting operation, designed to achieve exactly what it did: neutralize their vast news/opinion organization by high-level contacts by Rove or someone else which could not be revealed without betraying secrets going back to her connection with Chalabi and “Curveball”. This puts the lie to her posing as champion of free press, conscientiously objecting to a wrong government order.

Now London has been blasted, as if to rub all this off the board.

I don’t think so. These are very significant events.
