A teenager from a broken family apparently went berserk, shooting and killing 8 people at a shopping mall in Omaha, Nebraska. According to the report, the shooter was living with friends in a suburb located "between Offutt Air Force Base and the Missouri River".

Perhaps this is just another case of violent programming, psychoactive drug abuse and the collapse of moral values in a decadent society leading to a tragedy. However, there is an interesting coincidence here:

Evidently, the President enjoys visiting Omaha, home of the Offutt AFB and headquarters of the U.S. Strategic Command. He made a stopover there on the ill-fated day of Sep 11, 2001 also.

Conspiracy buffs may recall that Omaha was at the center of a scandal involving allegations of child prostitution and "mind control" programs some 20 years ago, as documented by Nebraska senator John DeCamp in his book "The Franklin Cover-Up". DeCamp was a personal friend of CIA director William Colby who confirmed some of his findings -- and died in a mysterious "boating accident" soon afterwards.
