PGP is over rated. It is no more secure than 128 bits EVER. Although
128 bits is a lot, it is not impossibly difficult for someone with
sufficient resources. If you read the description of PGP, the process
is simple:

     1) Generate a random key of 128 bits.
    2) Encode your data with the IDEA algorithm using the 128 bit key.
    3) Encode the random keyword with public key encryption of any
        size.
    4) Package the encoded random key with the IDEA-encoded message.

At best, PGP offers 128 bits of security. Who cares how many bits you
use to encode your password if your message is only encoded with 128
bits?

Although PGP is one of the best publicly-available encryption
techniques, it is still not all it is made out to be. The primary
benefit of the PGP system is the convenience that public-key
encryption offers plus the security of the 128-bit IDEA algorithm.

You could encode your passphrase with a million bits and it would
still be no more secure than 128 bits.

Listen up dickweed, thou knowest not about which you talk.

>128 bit's get your act together.  Wrong, wrong and wrong

Your message is only EVER encoded with a 128 bit
password.

Like I said, you need to understand how PGP works. There are two
passwords:

    PASSWORD A - which is a 128-bit Random string generated each
                 time and which is used in the IDEA algorithm.
    PASSWORD B - which is a user-specified length derived by a
                 hash algorithm from the user's passphrase.

The Idea algorithm is a 128-bit keyword cypher (PASSWORD A) that is
used to encode your message (let's call it CYPHERTEXT A). PASSWORD
B is then used to encrypt PASSWORD A using the public key encryption
algorithhm, producing CYPHERTEXT B. Note: only PASSWORD A is
enciphered with a 1024-bit or 2048-bit encryption algorithm derived
>from  RSA PKE to produce CYPHERTEXT B. So, the result is that you have
a composite message composed of CYPHERTEXT A and CYPHERTEXT B.

        PGP_MESSAGE = ( CYPHERTEXT_B, CYPHERTEXT_A )

        CYPHERTEXT_A = IDEA( PASSWORD_A, YOUR_MESSAGE)
        CYPHERTEXT_B = PKE( PASSWORD_B, PASSWORD_A)

As you can see, your message is only encoded with the IDEA algorithm
which is a 128-bit algorithm.

You can read the literature yourself. But your message text is only
encoded using a 128-bit algorithm. The chief advantage of PGP is the
ability to take advantage of Public Key Encryption techniques in a
128-bit security environment.

It's called a strawman. The original poster never made the statement
that such environments are "inherently" crime-ridden (whatever that
means). Therefore, both Phil's and your retort are retarded. That they
may be "de-facto" crime-ridden might be provable but I'm not making
that statement.

"Assuming there are no systematic weaknesses in the algorithm..."
granted. I'm not saying that there are such weaknesses, however,
all I'm saying is that PGP has no more than 128 bits of security.
I think that is more than sufficient for most needs. I also believe
that IDEA is preferable to DES. My main point was that you could
have a key with a million bits and you would have no more
than 128 bits of security with PGP. My intent was only to ensure
that the users understand the "weaknesses" and not think that
they have truly increased their security by using 2048 bits of
encryption.

That's fine. My main point was that there are limits to the
security offered with PGP. It is still an apparently useful
product and I highly recommend its use for everything
including dirty jokes to your friends, and other myriad
uses with little or no security needs (as long as good key
handling techniques are used). After all, traffic analysis is
made more difficult in an environment of widespread usage
of encryption.

Granted. I was aware of some of the weaknesses of RSA but
not of the particular aspects. It was merely my intent to convey
a warning to potential users. On that basis, one should use
as large a PGP password as possible (and practical) while
being aware that beyond a certain point no increased security
is offered.

   PREFIGURATIVE POLITICS AND THE WHITE COMMUNITY

Our Movement is complex and varied. It harbors all manner of
approaches to our people's survival. Despite this, there is much that
we can learn from other social and political movements. There are many
examples of nationalistic, ethnic revivalist, as well as separatist
and sovereignty movements from which we can learn. One strategy which
has recurred throughout such movements is what might be called
"prefigurative" politics or that activism designed to create the goal
society through incremental growth strategies. Our Movement too must
learn about and apply prefigurative politics to our Cause.

Prefigurative politics is a term coined by the left to describe their
strategy of involving more people into an evolutionary process of
transforming existing institutions into those that might exist in
their goal society. The strategy is "...to create and sustain within
the lived practices of the movement relationships and political forms
that 'prefigured' and embodied the desired society"(Breines 1982, p
6). However, this is not a new concept since it is practiced by nearly
every social movement. The early Irish nationalists had developed
parallel social institutions prior to their independence which
included their own police, courts, social support agencies and many
other such institutions. German National Socialists had created a
parallel government within their political party also with courts and
help associations. Shining Path Communists in Peru have created their
own government and social institutions including schools; in fact,
students raised at those schools have been taught to believe that the
communist leader is the real president of their country. The
Palestinian liberation movement's success rests on the government
which exists safely in regions other than Palestine. Under this
government, Palestinians have developed whole industries, schools, and
embassies. This approach of building our new society while in the
process of loosening ourselves from the current one is one which we
can apply well and with great success.

PREFIGURATIVE POLITICS IN AMERICA

Pre-figurative politics in America must entail the development of all
societal institutions and the necessary infrastructure so that we can
displace the centralized government of this corrupt republic with our
own pro-White institutions. By using the full extent of liberties and
resources available, great strides can be made towards
developing pro-White institutions and infrastructure.

Among the first institutions to develop must be the basic
communications and media institutions. By providing alternative
nationalist media, our basic political precepts and premises can be
communicated to large numbers of people. If these media are complete
enough to meet most of peoples' information and entertainment
needs, then we can enculturate them with our political and cultural
ideals and viewpoints while denying them to our opposition. Our
nationalist media will also act as a recruiting element if it is
positive and wholesome. Greater numbers will see the positiveness that
White nationalism stands for and understand its legitimacy
and importance. Such simple things as book, magazine, and video
publishing and distribution businesses should be developed within the
next few years in every major city in America. This will ensure the
steady supply and accessibility of White nationalist materials.

Perhaps some of the most important classes of institutions which need
to be developed are think-tank and foundational organizations which
study the theoretical issues of White society and develop visionary
outlooks, policies and strategies for our leadership. It is from these
idea-originating institutions that our political leadership will find
the necessary vision as well as substantive background
information necessary for making better decisions. Our political
organizations must promote positive engagement and role-taking among
their members so that there will be a steady supply of pro-White
activists. These activists must be shown the positive activies that
they can perform which will benefit our community. Activists
should seek to fill all of the roles that a society needs, but the few
key  areas must discussed here must have higher priority. Activsts
must become book writers, magazine editors, video producers, and
business entrepreneurs.

Educational institutions in the form of private schools must also be
developed. Educational institutions perform two vital societal
functions: socialization and education. Although today's schools are
bad enough with regard to their educational functions, it is the
socialization function which is perhaps the most damaging to
White society. In public schools Whites are not taught their own
national identity but are instead indoctrinated with the universalist
multi-cultural doctrine. Nationalist schools must be developed which
stress cultural identity and national idealism. However, these schools
must also set high value on developing capable students who excel in
the four R's: Reading, Writing, Arithmetic and Reasoning.

Numerous other social groups must be developed which seek to enculture
all of our people with good ideals and form them into an organized
community dedicated to national freedom. For the youth, there should
be organizations similar to the boy and girl scouts. 

These associations will enculture our youth with our ideals while
developing important skills and habits in a cooperative White
environment. Teenage and young adults should
be provided with militia organizations which further their nationalist
education while teaching them discipline, perseverence and service to
their nation. For fathers and mothers, husbands and wives, numerous
organizations with other like-interested people should be developed so
that a true cooperative White community develops.

There must be an two-fold strategy of developing economic
infrastructure and business culture. We must identify those key
industries that will provide important economic bases for business of
all types. We must work at developing and systemitizing our
business acumen so that it can be perfected and communicated to
entrepreneurs in our community. Realizing that money is one form of
power, we should do business so that there is a net buildup of a
pro-White economic infrastructure. Of course, this must
be done in such as way as to maintain compliance with
anti-discrimination laws.
	
BENEFITS OF PREFIGURATIVE POLITICS

By adopting prefigurative political  strategy, we will accomplish
several important steps leading to our self-determination. First, we
will create a positive, growing White community which is an example
for all to see. Second, we will ensure the existence of substantive
power structures which will be able to displace the power
structures of the corrupt U.S. republic. Third, we advance our
people's interests now, before we attain independence. Fourth, we will
be able to reach out and embrace greater numbers of people who would
otherwise be unable or unwilling to sacrifice their personal interests
by joining a revolutionary-based movement. Fifth, every
bit of growth of the White community will legitimize our political
statements while discrediting and delegitimizing the corrupt republic
and its integrationist, multicultural ideals.

SUMMARY

Prefigurative politics entails building up a White community within
multi-cultural America. Under this strategy, all types of instituions
and infrastructure are developed which separates us from the non- and
anti-White society. It provides many benefits which are unattainable
in other ways. It is a strategy that we must employ in advancing our
nationalist cause.

Boy! Will you be sorry you asked for my opinion!

I would say that the answer is obvious but not simple. Additionally,
it will require a long-term approach based on incremental growth and
improvement.

HOW TO THINK
------------
To think properly about this task, we must refresh ourselves on
several terms. Although you may think it pedantic, I think it is
necessary to provide a framework for discussing what we must do.

We must understand that goals are properly fashioned into a hierarchy
so that some goals reflect the top-most goal to be accomplished while
other sub-goals represent milestones to attain the larger goal.
Additionally, we must understand that, as individuals, we play a
smaller part in the accomplishment of our national ideals.
Individually, we assume roles and accept personal responsibility
for the accomplishment of a part of a larger program. I call this
"Seeing the need and assuming the responsibility."

First, a _MISSION_ is a statement of intent, of the goal one wishes to
achieve. A good mission statement will reflect the important aspects
by being abstract enough to cover all important details and subgoals
but specific enough as to provide some guidance. A _STRATEGY_ is the
approach one takes to accomplish the mission. The link between
missions and strategies are not deterministic: there are usually
several different strategies one might take to accomplish
the mission. The particular strategy chosen reflects one's own values
and brings to bear a myriad of different sub and correlated goals. An
_OPERATION_ is a specific group of activities which taken together
work toward the accomplishment of a part of the milestones necessary
to fulfill the mission in accordance with the chosen strategy. An
expample operation is: produce a regular newspaper to
educate our people on the conditions of their plight and how they
might lift themselves upward towards national independence. A _TACTIC_
is a specific set of tasks from which an operation is constructed.
Examples of tactics are: produce a January Edition of a newsletter.

To understand the differences between "strategies" and "tactics,"
consider the following statement about the nature of guerrilla warfare
by the good communist Mao Tse Tung (by a "good communist" I mean that
he is dead):

          The Strategy of Guerrilla Warfare is to fight 1 against 10.
          The Tactic of Guerrilla Warfare is to fight 10 against 1.

Hopefully this provides some insight into the hierarchical nature of
missions, strategies, operations, and tactics. A Strategy provides an
overall approach of what is to be done while a tactic provides the
specific means by which the larger goal is to be accomplished.

THE FRAMEWORK APPLIED
---------------------
In the next few sections I will apply the framework outlined above to
our own particular situation. The following reflects my own ideas on
what the task is and how it should be accomplished. Realize that this
is my own approach and I understand that there are other, necessary,
approaches as part of a larger whole.

THE MISSION: 14 WORDS
---------------------
With regard to our mission, I would find the "14 Words" to be an
acceptable one when certain factors are considered with it. The 14
Words, "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for
White children" is very general and represents an enduring mission (it
is non-terminating). That is good because I don't think our mission
EVER terminates. Unfortunately, it does not explain what it means for
an existence to be "secured." In the racio-ethnic context, I take
"secured" to mean "bound into a unique and seperate thriving
racio-ethnic community dedicated to its own self-preservation" and I
define "White" to be "those people of Celtic, Germanic and Slavic
heritage who value that heritage as the basis of their society."

THE STRATEGY: PREFIGURATIVE POLITICS/RESISTANCE COMMUNITIES
-----------------------------------------------------------
There are several strategic options available. Without an extensive
enumeration of them, they would include "revolutionary" strategies as
well as "evolutionary" strategies. By revolutionary, I mean those
activities which entail high degrees of risk of prison sentences,
death or personal disfigurement. By evolutionary strategies I mean
those activities which although risky in many ways do not entail a
high degree of risk of prison sentences, death or personal
disfigurement. Personally, I have chosen an "evolutionary" strategy.
That strategy is best termed "prefigurative politics" which is defined
in a following post.

In my opinion, those of us who elect an "evolutionary" strategy must
engage in prefigurative politics and the development of "resistance
communities." I will explain the term "resistance communities" more
completely in a following post.

THE OPERATIONS: 
----------------------------------------------------------

To explain my ideas on this basis, let me introduce a new term:
"Resistance Community" a little bit. A Resistance Community is a
unified association of like-minded nationalists working cooperatively
to build a prefigurative society which they see as replacing the
Foreign Community in which they find themselves. A resistance
community is a complete social community which is able to provide the
cultural needs of the people for which it represents. It provides
cultural, social, educational, economic and political services
which are necessary to maintain the nation. Being mindful of the
overall strategy which the operations are to perform, the operations
would include the development of alternate entertainment, education,
political representation institutions. These would include alternate
media like music, radio and television, as well as private schools.

Therefore, to answer your question about "how do we do it?" I would
say that we should organize ourselves as a resistance community and
work cooperatively towards our common national existence and
independence. I will expound on how this is to be performed in a
following article.

I would quite agree with you. Diversity is a fact of
life; get used to it by walling it off whenever possible.
By walls, I mean both social and physical.

Anyways, Mr. Niko,

my point was that you should always be careful when you are using
cryptographic techniques and expect some kind of secrecy. PGP is a
good enough product but even the best product can be countered with
poor usage.

Rich Graves, net-know-it-all and cyber-guru says "don't worry! Trust
him!" and that you should not even give PGP usage a second thought. My
point was that you should learn something about cryptography or else
you may use it in an ineffective way. Used improperly, compromised
cryptography can be deadly (ask the Japanese and Germans during WW2).
For REAL security, you need to be aware of certain potential problems
as well as keep abreast of technology. With those things in mind,
cryptography can be a life saver.

Obviously they misunderstood my intent.

As someone has properly discussed, one only approaches the security
of the 128-bit IDEA cipher with a 2000-bit RSA cipher. Therefore,
properly, one should definitely use larger bit passwords.

I agree and I said as much. It is a good program. All I wanted to
convey was that there were limits to its security. As someone pointed
out, that weakness lies in the public-key RSA portion.

It's a good question. I will accept someone's earlier statement that
over 2000 bits of RSA is required.

I wasn't trying to be contrite or anything, I was merely trying to
convey some of the important ideas and limitations of PGP. I
think that the caveats of the product should be realized by its
users and then it should be used exactly as intended. That is
why I suggested that my detractors read the literature that comes
with it. To summarize:

    Patriots should use PGP but they should be aware of
    cryptographic realities if they want true "secrecy."

Sincerely,

No, not at all. To be "over rated" means to be rated at a higher
degree than it actually is. Like I said, some people think that they
have thousands of bits of security when in fact they have no more than
128. That is all I've ever said and you can't twist that around to be
something it is not.

The issue is not whether or not 128 bits is secure enough, but
whether or not PGP offers more than 128 bits of security. The
game that all of my detractors seem to be playing is suggesting
that I am implying something I'm not.

>	Just to the contrary, I think it offers excellent security if used
>appropriately. I await your response, and the comments of others.

I have said as much.
