- I made the following transcript from a tape recording
- of a broadcast by Pacifica Radio station
- WBAI-FM (99.5)
- 505 Eighth Ave., 19th Fl.
- New York, NY 10018 (212) 279-0707

- ROBERT KNIGHT:
- Well, there is another kind of product that is just as powerful
- and just as deadly to the indigenous community. One application --
- just very broadly speaking as a former systems analyst myself --
- is that tracking software can easily be modified, in terms of the
- attributes of description, so that instead of federal cases in
- the United States, it can be used to track the activities and to
- keep a centralized log of the repression of individuals -- of
- citizens within a country. Think about Saudi Arabia; a slave state
- that did not officially change its laws regarding slavery; the
- indentured servitude of migrant workers who come into that country
- and become, effectively, the property of the ownership class, and
- cannot leave without an exit visa. They belong to somebody else.
-
- Imagine the applications of software like this! Imagine what
- happens to people who don't get their hands stamped at elections
- in El Salvador, because not to vote for the pre-selected rightwing
- candidates during the mid-1980's was considered by that U.S.-backed
- military government as tantamount to treason.
-
- Area code (212) 279-3400.
-
- We're talking about subtle material here, but that which can have
- an utterly profound effect on the state of human rights around
- the world. Something that illegally and mysteriously and --
- through the operations of the National Security Council members,
- Robert McFarlane, the "secret team", Richard Secord, and Ed Messe,
- Ronald Reagan and cronies -- something that starts turning up
- around U.S.-linked repressive governments around the world. And
- Iraq is included among them.
-
- 279-3400, area code (212)... If we are revealing to you new
- dimensions of the operations of your government ... This is not
- a federal investigation. This is an UNDERCURRENTS investigation.
- This is a WBAI investigation. And we're obviously operating at
- the threshold of danger. I say that, not to aggrandize the efforts
- of the people at this particular place, but there is the matter
- of the death of Danny Casolaro, implying the importance that people
- NOT know that this is going on.
-
- 279-3400 ... If you want to defy, you can defy with your money.
- You can defy with your tax-deductible donations to WBAI, and let
- us know that we need to do this. Let us know that YOU need to
- know this. We are trying to move the consciousness of this city,
- this country, and this world beyond the spy syndrome where only
- Robert Gates has a need to know. We're saying that YOU have a
- need to know.
-
- I remember, as news director, reporting on how, during the
- elections in El Salvador, the Israelis WERE INVOLVED in tracking
- individuals vis-a-vis voting. Were they using this software?
- We're going to find out! But it's essential that you help us.
-
- Let's look at the astonishing implications of this use of stolen
- tracking software to keep track of individuals in repressive
- governments, linked with the United States around the world,
- using software that was stolen from a company that refused to
- roll over to Ed Meese and cronies [e.g. President Reagan].
-
- PAUL DeRIENZO:
- I can't wait until I can tell people, over-the-air, the address
- of that facility in Washington, D.C. where anybody who goes to it
- is threatened with death. Maybe we could all go down there.

- This is one of countless stories unveiling the deeply corrupted
- and subverted state of our theoretically democratic Government.
- This story makes disgustingly obvious the fact that patriotism
- is not the waving of flags, the tying of yellow ribbons and the
- supporting of the Government, just because it happens to be ours.
- You don't support cancer just because you happen to have it.
- Patriotism is telling the truth to the people of our country
- in order that they may unite to conquer the anti-democratic
- cancer that is gradually destroying ours and our children's
- freedom. So please post the installments of this ongoing series
- to other bulletin boards, and post hardcopies in public places,
- both on and off campus. That would be a truly patriotic deed.
