When will it stop? Of all the questions I would like answered, this
one is the most pressing. How much longer are we meant to endure the incessant
lies from government and media about the nature of what is happening in our
world? How much more unbelievable do these lies have to become before that
'100th
monkey' syndrome kicks in and all 6 billion of us spontaneously 'get
it' and fall down on the floor laughing at just how ridiculous the official
story is?
It is long past time when the entire BS phony Islamic terror network/threat
story should have been exposed and ridiculed for what it is, yet here we are
still waiting, still wondering just how momentous the porky pie needs to be
to shock awake the sleeping masses and bring the whole scam crashing down.
Even now, there is more than enough evidence for every sane, rational human
being to easily conclude that the al-Qaeda threat is entirely bogus, yet the
governments of Israel, America and Britain just keep on pushing the official
line, keep on insisting that the fantastic fantasy of a global Muslim terror
threat is real. Meanwhile, Joe-six pack stands there like a dummy, trying hard
to make sense of it, half-believing, half-confused, half-wondering if there
is some opt-out clause by which he can avoid being a part of any of it and
slink back to 'normal life'. (In Joe six-pack, Bush-inspired fantasy land,
three halves make a whole, in case your were wondering)
Anyway, today folks, you are in for a treat. Strap yourselves in, as I take
you on a rip-roaring reality ride to the 'nexus of fantasy and reality', where
Islamic terrorists are also MI5 agents, and good Israeli boys are in the pay
of 'al-Qaeda'.
First of all, let's take a look at what provoked me to even begin to write
these words. As usual, it was a story from the mainstream press that was, as
they say, like a red rag to a bull:
Israel
accuses West Bank Palestinians of al-Qaida link
Israel linked West Bank Palestinians with the al-Qaida network for the first
time today when a military court charged two youths with receiving funds
from the jihad group to carry out a coordinated double bombing in Jerusalem.
The Palestinians, from the Balata refugee camp near Nablus, met with al-Qaida
operatives in Jordan, arranged for secret email communication, opened a bank
account and received 3,000 Jordanian dinars (€3,470) from al-Qaida to
carry out the Jerusalem attack, according to the indictment, released yesterday.
Our suspicions are first aroused by the fact that the connecting
of Palestinians to America's arch enemy and straw man, 'al-Qaeda', has long
been a perverse yet unfulfilled wet dream of the Israeli government hardliners,
simply because it would apply a veneer of 'legitimacy' (under the 'righteous'
war on terror) to their decades-old massacring of innocent Palestinians.
Any evidence presented by Israeli authorities pointing to such a connection
therefore carries with it the distinct odor of cow excrement. But we need
not depend solely on probable cause in making our case for this argument because,
as we shall see, there is a wealth of publicly available evidence that agents
of the state of Israel, along with their counterparts in British and American
government agencies, have been manufacturing the 'reality' of Islamic terrorism
and the organization known as 'al-Qaeda', for quite some time.
For starters, let's address the issue of the claimed al-Qaeda - Palestinian
militants link. In December of 2002, the biggest Israeli daily newspaper, Haaretz,
ran the following story:
Ibrahim, the Shin Bet wants you to join Qaida
By Danny Rubinstein
PA unveils Israeli intelligence scheme, denies Gaza links to bin Laden
Early last week, Rashi Abu Sba, head of the preventive security apparatus
in Gaza, the equivalent of the Shin Bet, accused the Israeli security service
of tricking young Palestinians into conducting missions in the name of Al-Qaida.
Last Tuesday, a young man named Ibrahim was presented to reporters in Gaza.
Ibrahim hid his face behind a mask, and told what happened to him.
He said that a year ago he sent in a personal, with his photo and phone number,
to East Jerusalem's Posta, a cultural-entertainment weekly with a personals section.
Three months later, the Gazan received a phone call from an older man, who introduced
himself as a merchant named Ahmed, who told Ibrahim that his photo reminded him
of his son. They spoke on the phone a number of times, with Ahmed asking Ibrahim
about the situation - and if he was a devout Muslim.
During one of the conversations, Ahmed told Ibrahim that he wanted to help Gazans
in economic distress and began sending money - cash in dollars and Jordanian
dinars - through the Nablus branch of the Cairo-Amman bank. Ibrahim told Ahmed
that he had never been arrested nor involved in any political organization. Then,
in one of the conversations, Ahmed said he was working for Osama bin Laden's
Al-Qaida organization, and Ibrahim was meant to be one of its organizers in northern
Gaza since the group already had an infrastructure in the south. Ahmed gave Ibrahim
a list of people, mostly Hamas activists, and was told to collect information
about them and follow them so they could also be drafted for the Al-Qaida cause.
The two never met, but at a certain point during their telephone contact, Ibrahim
became suspicious. He contacted a preventive security officer in Gaza and told
him the whole story. The officer looked into the matter and told Ibrahim that
Ahmed was an Israeli Shin Bet agent, and Ibrahim should immediately cut off any
contacts with him.
Palestinian sources said last week that the case was not unusual, and they reported
it, as well as similar cases, during a security meeting with top-level U.S. security
officials.
It should be noted that the proof that
Israel was behind the phony al-Qaeda recruitment drive was that the
calls received by the unwitting Palestinians all came from Israel. Palestinian
authorities also said that there had been 8 other such incidences
in the previous 9 months. The conclusion then is that, Shin Bet, the Israeli
equivelent of the FBI, was caught attempting to set up innocent Palestinians
as members of 'al-Qaeda'. Now why would they want to do a thing like that?
Why would Israeli intelligence want to recruit young Palestinians to carry
out 'suicide bombings' in Israel? Doesn't that seem kind of strange? How is
Israeli meant to make peace with the Palestinians if the Israeli internal intelligence
agency is actively recruiting Palestinians to carry out bombings in Israel?
That would seem to preclude the chances of there ever being peace between Israelis
and Palestinians. What does this mean for Israeli claims that they cannot find
a partner for peace in the Palestinians? Does it mean that the Israeli government
is being dishonest? Lying even? You're damn right it does.
Having established that the Israeli government is very probably involved in
the creation of fake Islamic terrorism in Palestine and Israel and the murder
of Israeli citizens, let's broaden our search to the other main members of
the 'coalition of those willing to start a Middle Eastern conflagration using
'Islamic terrorism' as justification' (as I like to call them). In March 2004,
the U. K. Times ran the following story:
Al-Qaeda cleric exposed as an MI5 double agent
By Daniel McGrory and Richard
Ford
Allies say warnings were ignored
One of al-Qaeda’s most dangerous figures has been revealed as a double
agent working for MI5, raising criticism from European governments, which
repeatedly called for his arrest.
Britain ignored warnings — which began before the September 11 attacks — from
half a dozen friendly governments about Abu Qatada’s links with terrorist
groups and refused to arrest him.
Abu Qatada boasted to MI5 that he could prevent terrorist attacks and offered
to expose dangerous extremists, while all along he was setting up a haven for
his terror organisation in Britain.
Among the scores of young militants who came to visit him in London was the
chief suspect in the Madrid train bombings. His followers also included people
who wanted to be suicide bombers for al-Qaeda, such as Richard Reid, the shoe
bomber.
A special tribunal that has investigated his operations in Britain described
him as “a truly dangerous individual”. A ruling by the Special
Immigrations Appeals Commission revealed yesterday that there was evidence
to show that Abu Qatada “has been concerned in the instigation of acts
of international terrorism”.
A security source in Madrid said yesterday: “Who knows how
much violence and bloodshed could have been prevented if Britain had heeded
the warnings about this man a long time ago.
Spain, France, Italy, Germany, the United States and Jordan all asked
to question Abu Qatada about his links to al-Qaeda but were refused.
He pledged to MI5 that he would not “bite the hand that fed him”.
He also promised to “report anyone damaging the interests of this
country”. Instead, he was recruiting for al-Qaeda training camps.
Instead, MI5 agents held three meetings with the cleric, who bragged of
his influence among young Islamic militants and insisted that they were no
risk to Britain’s national security.
His continued liberty for years after international demands for his arrest
was an embarrassment for Britain. When David Blunkett introduced his controversial
Anti-terrorism Crime and Security Act, 2001, which allowed him to detain
foreign suspects without trial, Abu Qatada claimed that the law “was
enacted with him particularly in mind”.
He disappeared from his family home in West London just before the law came
into force.
Indignant French officials accused MI5 of helping the cleric to abscond.
While he remained on the run, one intelligence chief in Paris was quoted
as saying: “British intelligence is saying they have no idea where
he is, but we know where he is and, if we know, I’m quite sure they
do.”
Almost a year later Abu Qatada was found hiding in a flat not far
from Scotland Yard. (Scotland Yard is the HQ of the British Police
Force)
What are the odds, eh? While Israeli Shin Bet are trying to recruit Palestinians
as 'al-Qaeda terrorists', British MI5 are shielding real 'al-Qaeda'
terrorists! It would appear then that the only difference between these two
stories is the stage that each represents in the 'terrorist creation' operation.
Shin Bet was caught at the very beginning of the process, while MI5 was exposed
as it was handling a previously made specimen. Government
panels that have been set up to investigate such matters have generally concluded
that problem lies in the fact that the intelligence agencies that recruit
informers from terrorist organizations can sometimes lose track of, or 'mishandle',
them and, tragically, this often leads to the intelligence agencies being
helpless to do anything but sit back and watch as their former informer
carries out a terror attack. Of course, such a claim is nothing more than
a trailer load of horse hockey and is the very same tactic used by the Bush
government when they claimed that 'intelligence failure" was to blame
for the success of the 9/11 attacks. In the case where a government agency
was actually involved in planning and carrying out a terror attack itself,
yet was also attempting to publicly frame a group of likely Islamic suspects
for the attack (which involves close contact with those suspects), it
is not hard to see how, when the attack is successfully carried out and revelations
about government contact with the patsy attackers is revealed, the government
would be forced to publicly cry incompetence over its inability to stop the
attack. For sure this is a plausible explanation,
but only in the absence of the information pointing to the government being
involved in the attack itself. With that information, the whole
dirty affair starts to make real sense.
In terms of the 'mishandling' of alleged terrorist double agents that leads
to terror attacks actually being successfully carried out; another
excuse put forward by the intelligence agencies is that they will sometimes
allow a planned terror attack to go ahead in order to ensure
their agent's cover is not blown and can continue to provide them with 'inside
information'. In case it hasn't hit you yet, yes, this explanation is just
about the most blatant and incomprehensible line of BS that you are likely
to come across. The idea being expressed is that, allowing an attack to succeed
can sometimes be acceptable if it ensures
that your man on the inside remains safe and undetected. Many people buy this
line without wondering what point there is in having a counter-terrorism agency
that recruits terrorists and then facilitates them to carry out terror attacks
that the agency is tasked with preventing in the first place. Clearly, this
is just more hubris and confusing nonsense which seeks to throw sand in the
eyes of the public who otherwise might soon stumble on the truth - that most
Islamic terrorism is planned, financed and carried out by people indirectly
employed by the governments of America, Israel and Britain.
Just to give you an idea of the scope of this phony terrorism, consider the
following report from June 2004 about a nice Israeli boy who somehow got caught
by the Philippine authorities planning an 'al-Qaeda terror attack'
In Baguio City: Israeli terror suspect falls; cops eye link
to al-Qaeda
Philippine National Police (PNP) operatives apprehended an
Israeli suspected to be a member of the al-Qaeda terror network in in Baguio
City on June 7.
Arrested was Mera Doutvsky.
Reports reaching the PNP headquarters in Camp Crame, Quezon
City, disclosed that Mera was nabbed at about 2 p.m., by joint elements of
the Criminal Investigation and Detection Unit and the Bureau of Immigration
at the vicinity of the Department of Social Welfare Development in Baguio City.
Authorities also said that Doutvsky was also found to be an
undocumented and overstaying alien.
Police said the information they received from the Bureau
of Immigration revealed that Doutvsky is asuspected member of the al-Qaeda
terrorist cell, an information still unconfirmed by other intelligence agencies.
Doutvsky was turned over to the office of Alipio Fernandez
Jr., BI commissioner, in Manila for proper disposition.
Of course, we should also include the now infamous
story about one American citizen named Michael Meiring, who was apprehended
when the bomb he was assembling blew up in his apartment in Manila, taking
both his legs with it. From his hospital bed, and before he could be interrogated
by Philippine authorities, Meiring was evacuated by the FBI back to the land
of the free and home of the phony terrorist network.
To provide a broader and perhaps almost complete understanding of the origin
of the epiphenomenon that is 'Islamic terrorism', we need to look at where
it all started:
The
CIA's "Operation Cyclone" - Stirring the Hornet's Nest of Islamic
Unrest
Oct 27 2002
[Zbigniew] Brzezinski not long ago revealed that on July 3, 1979, unknown
to the American public and Congress, President Jimmy Carter secretly
authorised $500million to create an international terrorist movement that would
spread Islamic fundamentalism in Central Asia and "destabilise" the
Soviet Union...
The CIA called this Operation Cyclone and in the following years poured $4billion
into setting up Islamic training schools in Pakistan (Taliban means "student").
Young zealots were sent to the CIA's spy training camp in Virginia, where
future members of al-Qaeda were taught "sabotage skills" - terrorism.
Others were recruited at an Islamic school in Brooklyn, New York, within
sight of the fated Twin Towers.
In Pakistan, they were directed by British MI6 officers and trained by the
SAS.
The result, quipped Brzezinski, was "a few stirred up Muslims" -
meaning the Taliban.
The Wall Street Journal declared: "The Taliban are the players most
capable of achieving peace. Moreover, they were crucial to secure the country
as a prime trans-shipment route for the export of Central Asia's vast oil,
gas and other natural resources."
No American newspaper dares suggest that the prisoners in Camp X-Ray are
the product of this policy, nor that it was one of the factors that led to
the attacks of September 11.
Nor do they ask: who were the real winners of September 11?
The day the Wall Street stockmarket opened after the destruction of the Twin
Towers, the few companies showing increased value were the giant military contractors
Alliant Tech Systems, Northrop Gruman, Raytheon (a contributor to New Labour)
and Lockheed Martin.
As the US military's biggest supplier, Lockheed Martin's share value rose
by a staggering 30 per cent.
Within six weeks of September 11, the company (with its main plant in Texas,
George Bush's home state) had secured the biggest military order in history:
a $200billion contract to develop a new fighter aircraft. The greatest taboo
of all, which Orwell would surely recognise, is the record of the United States
as a terrorist state and haven for terrorists.
This truth is virtually unknown by the American public and makes a mockery
of Bush's (and Blair's) statements about "tracking down terrorists wherever
they are."
They don't have to look far.
The most important point here is that the seeds of what today is the 'global
Islamic terrorist threat' were sown over 30 years ago in Afghanistan. At that
time, the US government established for itself a personal fundamentalist
Islamic army that was used to give the invading
Russian army its very own Vietnam-style quagmire in Afghanistan. With the
Russians defeated, all that was left was a rag tag bunch
of ruthless money-grabbing hired guns with a fundie Islamic bent. Over the
years this group was nurtured and put to good use by the CIA in creating 'ethnic
strife' in the former Yugoslavia that allowed NATO (read the U.S. military)
to intervene in the 1990's and accomplish the break up of a large part of Eastern
Europe into easily politically-manipulatable chunks. The same group of highly-paid
mercenaries have also been used by the U.S. to rankle the Russian bear in
the ongoing conflict in Chechnya. It is a matter of public record that:
Members of the Moroccan terror group Salafi Jihadi fought for the CIA in Afghanistan,
Chechnya, Dagestan, Bosnia and Kosovo
USS Cole Bomber Jamal al-Badawi fought for the CIA in Bosnia (see here for
more on the Cole Bombing)
Zacarias Moussaoui (currently on trial in the U.S.) fought for the CIA in
Chechnya
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (alleged 9/11 mastermind) fought for the CIA in Afghanistan
Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman fought for the CIA in Afghanistan
Ayman al Zawahiri (alleged bespeckled side-kick of Osama bin Laden) fought
for the CIA in Bosnia
His brother Ayman al-Zawahiri fought for the CIA in Kosovo
Abdullah Azzam, "one of the ideological founders of Hamas" fought
for the CIA in Afghanistan
At this point you may be wondering about the 600 or so unfortunates currently
residing at the pleasure of Donald Rumsfeld in the sunny resort of Guantanamo
Bay Prison Camp, Cuba, not to mention the unknown number of people that have
been 'rendered' to similar U.S. torture camps around the world. Who are these
people? Why, if they are 'terrorists' as the US government would have us believe,
have no charges been brought against them? To answer this question, we need
to have first accepted the reality of state-sponsored terrorism, a reality
that is clearly visible in the evidence that I have presented so far. Once
we have accepted this we can understand that, in order to perpetuate the illusion
of a global Islamic terror threat, Mossad, MI5 and the CIA must actively recruit
likely suspects to act as the fall guys for terror attacks and provide 'proof'
that the illusion is real. They are also extremely interested in 'extracting'
from such people information on existing Islamic groups that can
then be infiltrated, manipulated and used to further the goal of creating the
appearance of a global Islamic terrorist threat. Have you ever wondered why,
in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks, the U.S. government was able to immediately
identify and publish photos and information about the alleged 'Islamic terrorist'
masterminds, yet, to date, they have been unable, or unwilling, to bring even
one conviction? The reason is that if such people were to be brought to public
trial, they would expose the truth of everything that I have said above. The
purpose of Guantanamo bay and the many other secret CIA camps around the world
is, in a word, "recruits". But not recruits for the
war on terror but recruits for the Israeli, American and British-led
war ofterror.
The fact is folks, this stuff is happening every day of our lives, and right under our noses. Stories that confirm everything I am saying here are popping up all over the place. Take yesterday's report about a twin bomb blasts that ripped through two budget hotels overnight in La Paz, Bolivia, killing two people. Bolivian authorities said yesterday that they were questioning two foreigners arrested after the explosions, one of them an American citizen.
President Evo Morales said the bombings seemed politically motivated and decried that one of the suspects appeared to be from the United States.
"The United States claims to fight terrorism, yet Americans come to put bombs in our hotels," Morales said in speech in the eastern city of Santa Cruz.
Indeed.
Getting back to the original story, the Israeli government now seems determined
to prove that Israel and/or the Palestinian territories will
be the next 'al-qaeda' battleground, and it seems likely that this will
involve a major attack on Israel, which, we can safely say, will be
carried out by agents of the very same state of Israel. Such an attack would
of course provide Israel with the justification to take whatever action it
desires against whatever Arab population on which it chooses to lay the blame.
Undoubtedly Hamas (created
by Israel incidentally) and other Palestinian militant groups
would be targetted, but as has always been the case with any Israeli army operations
against Palestinian 'terrorists', the civilians of the occupied Palestine
territories are 'collectively punished' (a war crime) and suffer most in the
wholesale slaughter than ensues. Today,
the Palestinian people are being treated in much the same way as the Nazis
treated the Jews in the Warsaw ghettos. The Gaza strip and West Bank are virtual
prisons with only very few Palestinian being allowed to leave for any reason.
According to a United Nations report presented
to the Donors Conference last December, “37% of the estimated 3.7 million
Palestinians living in the West Bank and Gaza Strip had trouble getting food
in 2004. Another 27% were at risk of running into such difficulties,” Nearly
half the “Palestinian
population was poor, with poverty rate in the Gaza Strip reaching a staggering
65%,” the report continued. “Up
to 16% of Palestinians—550,000—were living on $1.5 a day, with
the likelihood that the figure will rise to 35%.
What is Israel's response to this humanitarian crisis that they have deliberately
created?
For the past two months, Israeli
forces have essentially closed down the major border crossings into Gaza
and are refusing to allow essential food
and supplies to get through. The excuse that there is a "security threat" is
laughable, especially since just a few weeks ago at an Israeli cabinet meeting,
Israeli Prime Ministerial advisor Dov Weisglass said that Palestinians would
be put on a diet but not starved to death. "It's
like an appointment with a dietician. The Palestinians will get a lot thinner,
but won't die," Weisglass
was reported as saying, also reported was that the assembled Israeli politicians
had a good laugh at this comment. It is not hard to imagine a group of Nazi
party
members 60 years ago sitting around a table and having a very similar conversation
about the Jews.
