AMERICAN PRIDE

JFK’S Secretary of State, Dean Rusk, was in France in the early 60’s when DeGaulle decided to pull out of NATO. DeGaulle said he wanted all US military out of France as soon as possible. Rusk responded, “Does that include those who are buried here?”

DeGaulle did not respond. You could have heard a pin drop.

When in England, at a fairly large conference, Colin Powell was asked by the Archbishop of Canterbury if our plans for Iraq were just an example of ‘empire building’ by George Bush.

He answered by saying, “Over the years, the United States has sent many of Its fine young men and women into great peril to fight for freedom beyond our borders. The only amount of land we have ever asked for In return is enough to bury those that did not

return.”

You could have heard a pin drop.

There was a conference in France where a number of international engineers were taking part, including French and American. During a break, One of the French engineers came back into the room saying, “Have you heard the latest dumb stunt Bush has done? He has sent an aircraft carrier to Indonesia to help the tsunami victims. What does he intend to do, bomb them?” A Boeing engineer stood up and replied quietly: “Our carriers have three hospitals on board that can treat several hundred people; they are nuclear powered and can supply emergency electrical power to

shore facilities; they have three cafeterias with the capacity to feed 3,000 people three meals a day, they can produce several thousand gallons of fresh water from sea water each day, and they carry half a dozen helicopters for use in transporting victims and injured to and from their flight deck. We have eleven such ships. How many does France have?”

You Could have heard a pin drop.

A U.S. Navy admiral was attending a naval conference that included admirals from the U.S., English, Canadian, Australian and French

navies at a cocktail reception. He found himself standing with a large group of officers that included personnel from most of those countries. Everyone was chatting away in English as they sipped their drinks when a

French admiral suddenly complained that, whereas Europeans learn many languages, Americans learn only English. He then asked, “Why is it that we always have to speak English in these conferences rather than

speaking French?” Without hesitating, the American admiral replied, “Maybe it’s because the Brit’s, Canadians, Aussie’s and Americans arranged it so you wouldn’t have to speak German.”

You could have heard a pin drop.

AND THIS STORY FITS RIGHT IN WITH THE ABOVE…

Robert Whiting, an elderly gentleman of 83, arrived in Paris by plane. At French customs, he took a few minutes to locate his passport in his carry on. “You have been to France before, monsieur?” the customs officer asked

sarcastically. Mr. Whiting admitted that he had been to France previously. “Then you should know enough to have your passport ready.” The American said, “The last time I was here, I didn’t have to show it.” “Impossible. Americans always have to show their passports on arrival in France !” The American senior gave the Frenchman a long hard look. Then he quietly explained, “Well, when I came ashore at Omaha Beach on D-Day in 1944 to help liberate this country, I couldn’t find a single Frenchmen to show a passport to.”

You could have heard a pin drop.

If You are proud to be an American, pass this on! I am proud to be an American!

The Deepnet (Darkweb, Darknet, whatever you wanna call it)

The Deepnet

Did you ever see the Matrix films? Some people are calling it the darknet or darkweb but the real name for it is the Deepnet.

The Deepnet is a part of the internet that can’t be accessed by the general public and can’t be found in search engines like Google. It’s a secret part of the internet that can only be accessed by a certain network of people. 

The Deepnet although pretty secretive is almost 5 times bigger than the whole of the public internet and filled with lots more information useful for hackers, researchers and scientists alike.

Although it does have it’s useful points there’s also much darker parts of the Deepnet, prostitution rings, hackers, drug dealing websites and assassins for hire. It can be a very dangerous place which is why staying anonymous and never giving away your details is highly important, we’re talking about the sickest people around as well as some of the best hackers on the planet. 

You must connect through a proxy and then connect to the Tor network. You can connect to the Tor network by using a web browser plugin or the Incognito OS ‘Tails’ which is used by the armed forces etc when they need a secure encrytped connection. 

Before connecting to the Deepnet and discovering the secret internet 5 times bigger than the ‘surface internet’ please be sure to read up on the following very thoroughly.

Although the Deepnet is quite a weird place and can be scary at the same time it does have a wealth of useful information in it, it’s something I’d strongly recommend to anyone that has the guts for it and/or curiosity to learn more.
