1. The Devil's Advocate
Time Stamp: 24:29
* Letters from the Devil - April 11, 1971* Becky R. from Dallas TX wrote in to ask Herr Doktor for a spell to counteract a curse her girlfriend put on her, making her want her. You know, a love curse.* She has turned to drinking and taking drugs in an effort to counteract the curse, even cast magic spells and incantations.* LaVey replies that Becky seems to think homosexuality is repugnant and is trying to hide her natural feelings toward her friend.* He suggests admitting to herself what she is, and recognising that there is nothing wrong with it. * She should confront her friend in a non physical way and explain her feelings.
2. Infernal Informant
Time Stamp: 39:55
* FBI releases 9/11 investigation document that scrutinized Saudis* https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/fbi-911-document-declassified/2021/09/12/fa37b584-13c9-11ec-9589-31ac3173c2e5_story.html* The FBI has released the first of what are expected to be several documents from its investigation into whether agents of the Saudi Arabian government provided support to the Sept. 11, 2001, terror plot, a move heralded by victims’ families, though it yielded no tangible proof of official involvement.* The Saturday night release was the result of an executive order issued by President Biden earlier this month ordering government agencies to review, declassify and release more information regarding the investigation.* Some families of 9/11 victims have sued the Saudi government, alleging the Saudis knowingly provided financial and logistics support to the terrorism plot, something that country’s government has long denied. As part of that lawsuit, lawyers for the families have fought for years to force the FBI to share what it knows about possible connections between the 9/11 hijackers, most of whom were citizens of Saudi Arabia, and any Saudi diplomats or intelligence operatives.* Brett Eagleson, whose father was killed in the attacks, said it was “particularly meaningful” that the first document in response to the executive order was released on the 20th anniversary of the attacks. “Today marks the moment when the Saudis cannot rely on the U.S. government from hiding the truth about 9/11,” he said in a written statement pledging to “hold the Saudi government fully accountable for the tremendous pain and losses we suffered.”* Biden signed the executive order after families of hundreds of 9/11 victims said he would not be welcome at this year’s events marking the anniversary unless he declassified evidence.* In 2019, the Trump administration said it would share some of the relevant information with the families, but would not provide other details about the bureau’s findings, invoking the rarely-used state secrets privilege to argue that some elements of the investigation into the 9/11 attacks would damage national security if they were revealed.* Justice Department lawyers said last month they had recently closed an investigation related to the attacks, making it easier to share documents like the one released Saturday.* That document shows that FBI agents were still investigating as recently as 2016 possible ties between two of the hijackers, Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Midhar, and those who may have helped them after they arrived in the United State...
