The Fraudulent War on Terror
Anders Breivik and the Zionist "War on Terror"
Updated August 1, 2011
Breivik is an avid Zionist whose motives were predicated on Islamophobia. His ideological influences are libertarian and “neo-conservative.” He was playing his part, albeit as a loose cannon, in the “clash of civilizations." The frightful atrocity of terrorism and mass murder committed by Anders Breivik in Norway has deeply shocked Scandinavians. I have spent much of the past week reading and thinking about the atrocities and the young man from Oslo who carried out these heinous crimes. The best analysis I have read thus far is Dr. K.R. Bolton's scholarly article entitled "Anders Breivik: Neo-Conned" published online in Foreign Policy Journal. The fact that Breivik's twisted worldview is in complete agreement with the extremist Zionism of Israel's Likud party is ignored in the mainstream media reports. The Norwegian and Swedish papers have reported that the primary focus of the investigation has been to determine if other people were involved in the shooting of the young people on the island near Oslo. There were several eyewitness reports of a second shooter, a man with dark hair and about 180 cm in height. The way that victims at the edge of the water appear to have fallen back, away from the water, seems to indicate they were shot from the water. One survivor from the island has reported that the shooter used a boat during the killing spree. The young man in the following video named Morten (Mårten) describes (in Norwegian) the shooter changing out of his police uniform and going around the island in a boat shooting at people on the island. It may be that people have mistakenly thought there were two people, because he was dressed as a policeman in the beginning, but at one point he is said to have taken off the police uniform and jumped into a small boat. And then he is said to have gone around the island for one round. Because during the shooting there was one pretty long gap between shots. But I think I heard a boat, and it fits pretty well with the story I heard from the survivors from the cliffs. So he went around in civilian clothes, I guess with lots of weapons in the boat, and he would wave to the cliffs to see if there were people hiding there, and when they waved back at him...he would come closer and pretend to help them, but then he just assassinated all of them instead. There are clearly many unanswered questions about how this mass murder was carried out, and exactly who all was involved with Anders Breivik in the planning and execution of the atrocities in Norway. When I first saw the photos of Breivik posing with a gun in a diver's wet suit I thought that he must have a military background. Norway does have hundreds of elite troops and snipers fighting with the "Coalition of the Killing" and it seemed likely that Breivik had served with Norwegian troops in Afghanistan. It turns out that Breivik did not serve in Afghanistan but he is, as Dr. K.R. Bolton writes, very much a product of the 'clash of civilizations': Breivik is a product of the “clash of civilizations,” formulated by neo-con ideologues and used by American and Zionist interests to philosophically justify the so-called “war on terrorism.” He is the product of a legacy that is anything but “conservative” in the Western historical sense: he sees himself as an underground resistance fighter against the Islamic occupation of Europe, who, in other circumstances, would be honored as a war hero. He sees Islamic laws and customs taking the place of Western laws. Breivik grew up on the west side of Oslo, where I spent a couple winters in the 1970s. Breivik was born in February 1979. Norway was then a mono-ethnic society, unlike Britain, France, and Germany which have had significant Muslim minority populations for many decades. Immigration into Norway from non-European nations increased greatly in the 1980s. Today, Norway is no longer a mono-ethnic society. The new immigrants are found mostly in the larger towns, particularly in Oslo. It is understandable that some Norwegians feel threatened by the sudden influx of new immigrants. Norway has long been a rather isolated country and has received very few immigrants during its modern history. A very large number of Norwegians and Swedes emigrated to America and Canada in the 19th Century leaving Scandinavia with a significantly reduced population. I have met intelligent Norwegians who have openly expressed a deep fear, like Breivik, that Muslims are seeking to take over Norway and Europe. When I listen to them it seems to me that they have swallowed the rhetoric of the "clash of civilizations" -- hook, line, and sinker. Breivik seems to be a person who believes every word of the anti-Muslim propaganda pushed by Hollywood and the Zionist-controlled media. In Breivik's case, he committed an atrocity based on his belief. He probably also believes that Muslim terrorists from Afghanistan destroyed the World Trade Center. There were several Americans who went on shooting rampages after 9/11 believing that Muslims were responsible for the terror attacks. It should be noted that Norway has 500 combat troops in Afghanistan. Denmark has 730. Sweden has 530. I have written critically about the Norwegian and Scandinavian combat troops fighting in the fraudulent "War on Terror" in Afghanistan, where Norwegian snipers compared the thrill of killing to sex. How does a nation like Norway, I ask, which suffered greatly under Nazi occupation, explain and justify to its peace-loving population why their supposedly peaceful nation is participating in an illegal occupation that is engaged in fighting and killing the people of Afghanistan?
This is where contrived provocations like the anti-Muslim cartoons printed in Danish newspapers come in very handy. In the wake of this blatant provocation the Danish people were forced to make a false choice whether their so-called freedom of speech means the Zionist-controlled media has the right to offend other religious communities. As Daniel Pipes, the Zionist Neo-con framed it: Will the West stand up for its customs and mores, including freedom of speech, or will Muslims impose their way of life on the West? Ultimately, there is no compromise. Westerners will either retain their civilization, including the right to insult and blaspheme, or not. The Muslims, who were deeply angered by the offensive images, were portrayed as trying to impose their values on the West. The "freedom of speech" in Scandinavia does not apply to all religious groups equally. It should be noted that the media outlets that published the anti-Muslim cartoons would not, for example, publish articles or cartoons that challenge Zionist claims about "the Holocaust". The real purpose of publishing the offensive cartoons was to create a false conflict by increasing social tensions between Scandinavians and Muslims. The Breivik atrocity is a frightful manifestation of this artificially created "clash of civilizations", a false construct that has been imposed on the people of Norway and the West by ruthless Neo-cons to justify the Zionist "War on Terror".

"I Shall Not Hate" & Guantanamo Prisoner No. 746
February 26, 2011 Outlook, a program on BBC World Service radio, has had two remarkable segments in the past few days, which I recommend.
Yesterday, there was a 17-minute interview with Saad Iqbal Madni, an Islamic scholar from Pakistan who was held for 5 years in Guantanamo. The program is entitled Guantanamo Prisoner No. 746. The first part of the program was with an Australian man who survived the hostage taking of the Moscow theatre. Saad Iqbal Madni is an Islamic scholar from Pakistan who spent five years in Guantanamo Bay. He was released in 2008 - he says without charge - but has been under house arrest in Lahore since then. Under anti-terrorism legislation, all former suspects returning to Pakistan are automatically placed under restrictions when they return. Saad's ordeal began a few months after 9/11, during a visit to Indonesia. He says he was bundled onto a plane in Jakarta in January 2002, and then flown to Egypt. From there he was transferred to Bagram Airbase in Afghanistan, and moved again in March 2003 to Guantanamo Bay. He claims he was humiliated, tortured, and abused every step of the way. This is an interview that should be listened to by anyone concerned about the serious crimes that have been carried out at the Gulag of Guantanamo, all in the name of the people of the United States. The clickable URL of the program is here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/programmes/2011/02/110225_outlook_guantanamo_madni.shtml "I SHALL NOT HATE"
I also recommend listening to the profoundly moving 27-minute BBC Outlook radio interview with the wise Palestinian doctor, Izzeldin Abuelaish. Dr. Abuelaish described his extraordinary personal journey to Outlook's Lucy Ash. The show can be heard here: Abuelaish has vowed not to hate despite suffering appalling losses at the hands of others. The doctor from Gaza has always used medicine to bridge the divide between Israelis and Palestinians, and continues to do so despite losing three daughters under Israeli tank fire.
An internationally trained fertility expert, he helped childless couples in both Gaza and Israel to have babies. During the Second Intifada in Gaza, he was the only Palestinian doctor working in one of Israel's busiest maternity units, and each week he would cross the checkpoints that separated his home in the Gaza Strip from Israel. A few people from his community thought he was a traitor, though most admired his professionalism, his humanity and his determination to bridge the increasingly bitter Israeli-Palestinian divide. But the conflict came to his own doorstep on 16 January 2009 when Israeli tank shells killed three of his daughters and a niece. Astonishingly, however, Izzeldin did not become embittered, nor did he seek revenge. Instead, he convinced himself that his girls' deaths must not be in vain and slowly turned his family tragedy into a force for peace - so much so that Izzeldin has won many humanitarian awards and has even been nominated for the Nobel Peace prize.

The Liars Who Took Us to War
February 16, 2011
We have first-hand descriptions of biological weapons factories on wheels. The source was an eyewitness — an Iraqi chemical engineer who supervised one of these facilities. He was present during biological agent production runs. He was also at the site when an accident occurred in 1998. Twelve technicians died. The Iraqi defector who fabricated tales of mobile bioweapons trucks and clandestine factories has admitted for the first time that he lied and then watched as his lies were used to justify the war. Rafid Ahmed Alwan al-Janabi, codenamed "Curveball" by German and American intelligence officials who dealt with his claims, told the Guardian, "They gave me this chance. I had the chance to fabricate something to topple the regime."
As U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell gathered his notes in front of the United Nations security council, al-Janabi knew what Powell would say. Al-Janabi was, after all, Powell's main source, a man his German handlers had feted as a new "Deep throat" — an agent so pivotal that he could bring down a government. As Curveball watched Powell make the U.S. case to invade Iraq, he was hiding an admission that he has not made until now: that nearly every word he had told his interrogators from Germany's secret service, the BND, was a lie. Even now, Curveball seems bemused that his lies got as far as they did. He says he thought the game was up by the end of 2000. By that point, the BND had flown to Dubai to interview his former boss at Iraq's military industrial complex, Dr. Basil Latif, who had told them that his former underling was a liar. Al-Janabi's confession confirms that the 2003 invasion of Iraq was based on a whole series of lies that were known to be fabrications. These lies were pushed by the Bush administration and the Zionist-controlled press to start an illegal war of aggression that had been planned long in advance. This is exactly like the first war against Iraq in 1991 started by George H.W. Bush, which was foisted on the American people based on a similar pack of blatant lies about alleged Iraqi atrocities told to Congress by a young lady who turned out to be the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador.

Torture Under Obama - Iraq War Logs
October 26, 2010 "You know we don't do body counts."
"U.S. soldiers killed innocent Iraqi civilians at road checkpoints. In one incident, in September 2005, when a car failed to stop they fired warning shots before opening fire with automatic light machine guns, killing a man and a woman and wounding their children." Note on usage: Gen. David H. Petraeus described Camp Bucca as he found it in 2007: "When I took command of Multinational Force-Iraq in February 2007, we still had Camp Bucca with 17,000 detainees at that time and it grew larger," said Army Gen. David H. Petraeus, commander, International Security Assistance Force and commander, U.S. Forces Afghanistan. "We still had all of the detainees in huge enclosures. It was just fenced-in enclosures of about 800 to 900 detainees per enclosure. Obviously, we have come a long way since then." A concentration camp is defined by Merriam Webster as a camp where persons (as prisoners of war, political prisoners, or refugees) are detained or confined. The Holocaust Encyclopedia has the following definition, which correctly describes U.S. camps like Camp Bucca: The term concentration camp refers to a camp in which people are detained or confined, usually under harsh conditions and without regard to legal norms of arrest and imprisonment that are acceptable in a constitutional democracy. In Nazi Germany between 1933 and 1945, concentration camps (Konzentrationslager; KL or KZ) were an integral feature of the regime.

What does the Death of Holbrooke Mean for Af-Pak War?
December 16, 2010 The sudden death of Richard Holbrooke, President Obama's special envoy to Afghanistan and Pakistan, is like the head falling right off the policy. Is Holbrooke's death an omen that indicates the end of the failed and criminal war policies in the region? We can always hope.
Frank J. Ruggiero, Holbrooke's deputy, has been named as his replacement. Very little information is available on Ruggiero's background, which raises questions about why. Is he related to the infamous Ruggiero family gangsters of New York City? It wouldn't suprise me if he was. This is, after all, a criminal war based on the false-flag terror atrocity of 9/11.
Frank Ruggiero is a 1982 graduate of Ursuline High School from Youngstown, Ohio. He is married to Yong J. Lee and lives in Gaithersburg, Maryland. He was born in 1963, the youngest child of Frank and Barbara (Palermo) Ruggiero of Youngstown and Austintown, Ohio. Ruggiero has worked in various positions in the U.S. State Department and U.S. Department of Commerce. He was named Holbrooke's top deputy in July, a position that included helping Holbrooke develop the United States policy for Pakistan and Afghanistan. Ruggiero has worked for the State Department since 2003 and worked for the Department of Commerce for several years before that. It was during a course on international relations at Youngstown State University when he decided he wanted to pursue it as a career, he said. He transferred to The Ohio State University, graduating in 1987. Ruggiero earned a master's degree in Middle Eastern affairs from American University in 1989 and has completed course work toward a Ph.D. in U.S. foreign policy in Asia at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. He has served in several positions in the departments of State and Commerce and has played a leading role in the State Department on security strategy in the Persian Gulf and on political-military issues in the Middle East. He said he worked for former U.S. Rep. James Traficant during the Persian Gulf War and later moved to California to work for the Department of Justice.  The U.S. sends women to fight its criminal war in Afghanistan.

TAPI Pipeline - The Real Reason for 4 More Years of War
December 20, 2010 TAPI Gas Pipeline Deal Signed  Indian energy minister Murli Deora, Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari, Turkmen President Kurbanguly Berdymukhamedov and Afghan President Hamid Karzai after signing TAPI agreement in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, 11 December 2010  BROKEN PROMISES - Vietnam War veteran Dave Hancock protests at the White House on December 16. More than 60 percent of the American people are opposed to the Afghan War, according to a recent Washington Post poll. The Obama administration, elected on the promise to withdraw U.S. troops by July 2011, now says the U.S. will maintain combat troops in Afghanistan until December 2014. On December 17, the House passed a defense authorization bill (by a 341-48 vote) that authorizes the Pentagon to spend nearly $160 billion on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan in 2011 without major restrictions on the conduct of operations. Why are U.S. (and NATO) troops being kept in Afghanistan for another 4 years? What's really going on there? As I have reported since shortly after 9/11, the real reason for the U.S. invasion and occupation of Afghanistan is to build and secure a 1,080-mile long gas pipeline designed to carry trillions of dollars of Israeli-owned gas from Turkmenistan to Pakistan and India. In a 2009 article entitled "Why Afghanistan" I wrote about the role of Israeli intelligence in the TAPI gas pipeline project and its connection to 9/11: Following the break-up of the Soviet Union, Israeli agents sought to gain control of the strategic assets of the newly independent Soviet republics. In mineral-rich Turkmenistan, a Mossad agent named Yosef A. Maiman was very successful in gaining control of the republic's immense resources of natural gas. Yosef Maiman, born in Germany in 1946, grew up in Peru and studied in the United States before becoming an Israeli citizen in 1971. As an agent of Israeli intelligence, Maiman heads a network of Mossad-controlled companies that serve Israeli interests. As the chief executive of the Merhav Group, Maiman has controlled the development of Turmenistan's gas resources. Maiman's key colleagues at Merhav are the former head of the Mossad, Shabtai Shavit, and Nimrod Novik, chief adviser to Shimon Peres, the current president of Israel. Maiman was described as "a leading miner" of Central Asian gas fields by the Jerusalem Post in 2004. Given their control of the immense gas resources of Turkmenistan, Maiman, Merhav, and the Mossad would all profit if and when the U.S.-led coalition were able to "pacify" and control Afghanistan so that the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India (TAPI) gas pipeline could be built allowing the gas of Turkmenistan to be sold to energy-hungry India. The TAPI pipeline project would bring billions of dollars into Mossad coffers every year. This is the real reason for the war in Afghanistan and why the Zionist-controlled Obama administration has increased the war effort in Central Asia. It has nothing to do with terrorism or 9-11. The false-flag terror attacks of 9/11 were part of a strategic Israeli operation to bring the U.S. military into Afghanistan on a long-term mission on behalf of Israel’s Turkmen gas enterprise. The Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India (TAPI) pipeline is the real reason that U.S. soldiers are fighting and dying in the southwestern Afghan provinces of Helmand and Kandahar. 9/11 was just the cover story for this pre-planned war of aggression - and it is nothing but a complete hoax.  The TAPI pipeline is planned to be built along the Herat-Kandahar highway across western and southern Afghanistan.  FATALITIES BY PROVINCE - The route of the proposed TAPI gas pipeline is exactly where most U.S. troops have died in Afghanistan (the blood red provinces of Helmand and Kandahar) . Americans, Canadians, and Europeans are fighting and dying in Afghanistan (and Pakistan) for Israeli profits. Source: Operation Enduring Freedom, iCasualties.org  According to a recent audit, the gas reserves of the fields (largely controlled by Mossad’s Yosef Maiman and the Merhav Group) stand at between 4 and 14 trillion cubic metres. Under the pipeline framework agreement, Pakistan and India will each receive 1,325 million cubic feet per day (mmcfd) of gas, while Afghanistan will receive 500 mmcfd. According to the deal, the pipeline will have a diameter of 56 inches and will stretch over a distance of 1,640 kilometres from Turkmenistan to Fazilka in India. The pipeline is expected to commence gas flow by 2015. “The Afghanistan government has guaranteed that it will deploy at least 5,000 troops for the protection of the pipeline within its territory,” said Naveed Qamar, Pakistan’s Federal Minister for Petroleum and Natural Resources. On December 11, a preliminary agreement was signed in Turkmenistan’s capital, Ashgabat, by representatives of the four countries to proceed with plans for the American and Israeli-backed pipeline. Here are the basic points about the TAPI pipeline: Construction of pipeline will be completed by 2014 (note this is the new end-date given for the U.S. military mission in Afghanistan, but don't believe it) 1,680 kilometer gas pipeline will supply 3.2 billion cubic feet of natural gas per day (much of this gas will come from Israeli/Mossad-owned gas fields in Turkmenistan, meaning immense profits for the Mossadniks who pulled of 9/11)  A cartoon depicts the Pakistani military chief as a Zionist stooge BALKANIZATION OF AF-PAK REGION  U.S. GANGSTER DIPLOMACY - U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage threatened to bomb Pakistan "back to the stone age" unless it joined the fight against al-Qaeda. General Musharraf said that Armitage delivered the threat to Pakistan's intelligence director. "The intelligence director told me that Mr Armitage said, 'Be prepared to be bombed. Be prepared to go back to the Stone Age'," Pakistan's President Pervez Musharraf said. Armitage is most likely the same diplomat who threatened the Afghan government two months before 9/11 - "You will either accept our carpet of gold or we will carpet-bomb you." The C.I.A.'s armchair warriors bomb targets in Pakistan on a daily basis and the United States has 3,000 Special Forces in Pakistan, according to Zainab Cheema’s recent article entitled "Return of Musharraf And Pakistan’s Balkanization" about what the Zionist "War on Terror" and Mossad's TAPI project really mean for Pakistan: Pakistan has been turned into a war-on-terror parking lot: 3000 American Special Forces units operate in Pakistan at the present. Pakistan’s politicos have always shown remarkable generosity in passing down the costs of their decision-making to the people. Guantanamo is a thriving industry in Pakistan and the foremost field of Pakistan-US collaboration. Pakistan’s police, army and frontier corps are part of the American security system in Pakistan... Pakistan’s balkanization is just as much about keeping rivals out as it is about securing the best perch in the playground. The Iran-Pakistan Friendship pipeline (IP) in the works (formerly the Iran-Pakistan-India pipeline before the US weaned away India with its nuclear fuel deal) is planning its route through Balochistan. While Pakistan can occasionally make such inconvenient deals with a neighbor that Israel and the US are determined to exterminate, the groomed Balochi tribes would follow more the acceptable Karzai pattern of subservient obedience. Meanwhile, terrorizing the PK is laying the ground for the US’s own pipeline project snaking its way through Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India (TAPI).

A Real Email about IEDs
October 9, 2010 Paramount among the responsibilities of a free press is the duty to prevent any part of the government from deceiving the people and sending them off to distant lands to die of foreign fevers and foreign shot and shell. I perused the global edition of the New York Times on October 7 to see how the most widely read American newspaper would mark the ninth anniversary of the beginning of the U.S.-led invasion and occupation of Afghanistan. Oddly, there was no mention of the ninth anniversary of the war in Afghanistan. The only thing I found about Afghanistan was at the top of the editorial page, a piece entitled "An e-mail from the Afghan war" written by Lt. Col. Ted Adams of the U.S. Marine Corps, commanding officer of the 9th Engineer Support Battalion. Adams editorial is about IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices), which he begins by saying "are the bane of my existence." They drive us all crazy, but I take it personal. It is hard to imagine how much we could get done if we didn’t have to put the effort into protecting ourselves from these “improvised explosive devices” and avoiding them. We’ve been hit by more than 10 IEDs in the last couple of weeks. During my last convoy we hit one on the way, and one on the way back. I don’t like those averages. This comment raises the fundamental question, what is it that Adams' battalion has been sent to Afghanistan to "get done"? Why are American forces building roads in Afghanistan in the first place? What is the goal of the infrastructure project in Afghanistan that requires the presence of thousands of American soldiers and billions of U.S. dollars? In the puff piece about the 9-year-old war by Adams, IEDs do not cause serious injury. In fact, the subject of injury appears only twice in the article: During the recent convoy, one IED in particular was pretty powerful and ripped through the armor within the wheel-well and floorboards of the truck. This resulted in the most serious injury any of our Marines have suffered to date; an open fracture of the lower leg. We called in a helicopter MEDEVAC and continued with the mission. Later, he says that most of the injuries from IEDs have not been at all serious: We all have thoughts that our truck might be the next one to strike an IED, but we also try to maintain some confidence that we’ll be protected if it happens. The equipment does pretty well. So far, most personnel involved in IEDs have had minor injuries, bruised legs, ringing in the ears and/or headaches. I pray that’s as bad as it gets.
I got an e-mail the other day from the brother of a young man who was hit by an IED in Iraq. The story of this young man from my hometown of Schaumburg, Illinois, gives a much more realistic view of IEDs and the real human cost of the war in Afghanistan and Iraq: Date: Tuesday, October 5, 2010

U.S. Wounded - The Hidden Toll of Obama's Surge
November 26, 2010 OBAMA'S CASUALTIES
As a presidential candidate, Barack Obama called for a greater focus on the war in Afghanistan and a troop "surge". During his first month in office Obama authorized the deployment of 17,000 additional troops on February 17, 2009. By December 2009, Obama had called for 30,000 more troops to be sent to Afghanistan. More than 6,500 Americans have been severely wounded as a result of Obama's surge in this most ill-advised and criminal of wars. Why are Americans fighting and dying in Afghanistan?
THE REAL COST IN U.S. WOUNDED As a frequent visitor to iCasualties.org, I noticed that tallies of U.S. wounded had not been updated since July 2010 – until recently. The website's data is based on monthly reports from the Department of Defense. Now that the data on U.S. wounded from August through November 2010 has been added, I can see why the White House held these shocking numbers back. Nearly 600 U.S. servicemen, about 20 per day on average, have been wounded every month since May 2010. This is the painful reality of the fraudulent war in Afghanistan that the Obama administration has been hiding.
In 2008, there were 793 U.S. wounded in Afghanistan. During 2009, the first year of Obama’s presidency, the number of wounded shot up to 2,144, a nearly three-fold increase. Thus far in 2010, the first full year of Obama’s surge policy in action, more than 4,481 Americans have been wounded in Afghanistan -- more than twice the casualties from 2009 and about six times as many as 2008. If we still had good photo journalism covering the war from the front lines, like LIFE magazine provided during the Vietnam War in the 1960s and 70s, Americans would be more aware of the real suffering caused by the 9-year-old criminal war of aggression in Afghanistan. A population that is painfully aware of the human toll is much more likely to take effective action to end the war.

Facing Reality in Afghanistan
Updated October 4, 2010 "NATO is here and they say they are fighting terrorism, and this is the tenth year and there is no result yet...Our sons cannot go to school because of bombs and suicide attacks."
Nearly twice as many Americans have died fighting wars in Iraq and Afghanistan than were lost in the 9/11 attacks. The total cost of these long wars will be in the trillions of dollars...The entire national security system has suffered as a result of the wrong-headed actions of the Bush administration in Iraq and the Obama administration in Afghanistan.
Nine Years of the War of Terror
October 8, 2010 It's not a matter of what is true that counts but a matter of what is perceived to be true.
October 7, 2010, marked the beginning of the tenth year of the War on Terror, a fraudulent and disguised Zionist war of conquest that should more rightly be called the Israeli "War of Terror." This is the more accurate label for the wars being waged in
Q- Is it true that Rahm Emanuel, for six years having been on and off Clinton White House Senior Advisor, has been, in effect, Deputy Director for North America, of the Mossad, Israel's spy agency? And was Rahm an instrumental part of Marc Rich's dirty, bloody business for the American C.I.A.?
During the 1980s, when George H.W. Bush was the vice president and Menachem Begin was prime minister in Israel, the plans for 9/11 were already being developed. The international criminal network behind 9/11 has its roots in the Mossad/C.I.A. smuggling operations of drugs, weapons, and oil that were carried out by the Mossad during the Iran Contra scheme. This network involves people like Marc Rich, Shaul Eisenberg, and their Rothschild financiers. This is the reason the Mossad and Israeli politicians used every card they had to obtain the last minute pardon from President Clinton for the F.B.I.'s most wanted criminal, Marc Rich. If Marc Rich were to be arrested and interrogated he could expose the extent of Mossad crimes that reach to the top of the Israeli and U.S. political establishments.

Norwegian and U.S. Soldiers Kill for Thrills in Afghanistan
September 30, 2010 Search for the truth is the noblest occupation of man; its publication is a duty. Norwegians and Scandinavians are shocked and appalled to read that Norwegian soldiers actually enjoy killing Afghan resistance fighters, who are fighting the foreign occupation of their country. The Norwegian magazine Alfa coming out this week carries an article with interviews with Norwegian snipers who brag about killing Afghans from more than 2,500 meters. The Norwegian report mirrors a grisly ABC News report of U.S. troops "Killing for Sport" innocent Afghan civilians and cutting off parts of their bodies. These reports reveal the false morality of the criminal war in Afghanistan.
Alfa magazine appears to be of that peculiar genre of magazines for men that mixes sex with war and violence. Although the issue of Alfa has not yet hit the newstands the story has already caused an uproar in Norway, a land that suffered a brutal occupation under the Nazi regime during the Second World War. This presents the fundamental ethical problem that I posed to the Norwegian government several years ago when it became clear to the public that Norwegian soldiers were not promoting democracy or building schools in Afghanistan - they were simply killing people.
The Norwegian mission that Simonsen commands is called the Provincial Reconstruction Team (PRT) but what are they really constructing? What is the real purpose for the 500 Norwegian soldiers who are on a mission to kill Afghans in the province of Afghanistan that borders Turkmenistan? Could it be that greedy Norwegian oil oligarchs (read Statoil) are invested in the criminal scheme to occupy Afghanistan in order to build the TAPI gas pipeline from Turkmenistan to India - for Israel's Mossad gangsters? (See my articles below.)
"A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR"
How can any Christian nation that suffered a brutal occupation in its modern history take part in the illegal occupation of Afghanistan? How could Norwegians be part of the "coalition of the killing"? The Norwegian government did not deign to respond to my question, although I am only trying to help them out of a very bad situation. Of the 4 Scandinavian and Baltic nations I asked about being involved in combat in Afghanistan, only Finland responded with a protest saying that ISAF soldiers were not involved in combat operations - a complete lie. When queried about the news reports, the Finnish spokesman refused to discuss the subject any further.
No, Ms Faremo, the soldiers' comments should not be "left in the dark". Their statements simply reflect the brutal reality of the murderous mission they were sent on by Norwegian government officials like you. How can killing be anything but murder in such a criminal war? What is truly unacceptable is Norway's participation in the pre-planned war of aggression in Afghanistan. The story that first made it quite clear that Norwegian soldiers were fighting in Afghanistan concerned German helicopter pilots who went back to base in the evening rather than continue fighting Afghans. The Norwegians complained that they could have gone on killing if the Germans had not returned to base at dusk.
Author's Note - As an American with Norwegian ancestors I have a great deal of respect for Norway and Norwegian culture. My criticism of Norway's current participation in the war in Afghanistan should not be misconstrued as anti-Norwegian.

Afghanistan - Obama's War for Israel
Updated July 6, 2010 Bruce O. Riedel headed the White House Afghan war strategy team that advised President Obama to send 50,000 more U.S. troops in early 2009. With the chaos and bloodshed in Afghanistan increasing every month, Riedel is often interviewed these days- but never identified as a hired gun of the Israeli operative Haim (Chaim) Saban, who happens to be a close friend and partner-in-crime of Ehud Barak, the Israeli defense chief. Recognizing Obama's Zionist war planners is essential to understanding what the war in Afghanistan is really all about.
A recent article, "The Influencer" in the New Yorker, explains Saban's (i.e. Mossad's) strategy in crafting U.S. foreign policy to benefit Ehud Barak and his gang of Zionist terrorists: Saban's greatest concern, he says, is to protect Israel. At a conference in Israel, Saban described his formula. His “three ways to be influential in American politics,” he said, were: make donations to political parties, establish think tanks, and control media outlets. In 2002, he contributed seven million dollars toward the cost of a new building for the Democratic National Committee—one of the largest known donations ever made to an American political party. That year, he also founded the Saban Center for Middle East Policy at the Brookings Institution…By far his most important relationship is with Bill and Hillary Clinton. In 2002, Saban donated five million dollars to Bill Clinton’s Presidential library, and he has given more than five million dollars to the Clinton Foundation.
In the late ’90s, as co-owner of the Fox Family Channel, Saban was developing shows for children. Simmons, the fire-breathing, blood-spitting frontman of a rock band in costumes and face paint, pitched Saban an idea for a new Saturday-morning cartoon: Kiss meets X-Men, the Marvel comics superhero team. Saban liked the concept well enough to convene a meeting with Avi Arad, then C.E.O. of Marvel’s toy division.
In January 2001, a law suit was filed in Israel's High Court calling for criminal charges to be brought against Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Los Angeles television producer Chaim Saban. The court papers allege that on March 25, 1999, a month and half before Israel's national elections, Saban hosted a campaign fund-raiser in his Beverly Hills home for then prime minister candidate Barak in violation of Israeli election laws. The 35 to 40 guests who attended the parlor meeting were each asked to donate $10,000 to benefit the Barak campaign.
As reported in the Israeli press of 2001: Saban promised to match each donation to Barak, dollar for dollar. On the evening of the fund-raiser Barak flew into L.A. and spoke before the parlor meeting held in Saban's home and contributions were solicited… AFGHANISTAN CHAOS
But why are Norwegian troops in Afghanistan in the first place? Why are tens of thousands of young Europeans, Canadians, Australians, and Americans slogging away in the Hindu Kush? What is the real mission of this international military campaign that has dragged on for nearly 9 years? What deals have been struck, what promises made to those who have sent their fighting men to the bloody quagmire in Afghanistan? THINKING CLEARLY ABOUT AFGHANISTAN To understand why thousands of young Americans and Europeans are fighting and dying in Afghanistan we need to be very clear about the real reasons for this nine-year-old military invasion and occupation. Some straight talk and Socratic dialectic will help us to determine what this war is really about – and what it isn't. President Obama adopted the seven-year-old war (in 2008) and the Bush administration's reasoning for it, claiming that the United States is occupying Afghanistan because of 9-11. The terrorists behind 9-11, according to the Obama and Bush administrations, were members of the Al Qaida organization headed by Osama Bin Laden. This Islamic terrorist organization was based in Afghanistan under the Taliban regime and presented a threat to the whole world, which is why an international coalition was put together to fight against it. The claim that Osama Bin Laden and Al Qaida were behind 9-11, however, has been proven false. While the U.S. government never actually proved that these parties were involved in the terror attacks, the discovery of large amounts of super-thermite in the dust of the World Trade Center has now exposed this claim to be nothing but a complete fabrication. The government and media version of 9-11 contradicts both the scientific evidence and the laws of physics. It is impossible for both to be valid. The laws of physics and the evidence are true; the government version is clearly false. Al Qaida neither produced nor applied the extremely explosive super-thermite that pulverized the Twin Towers on 9-11. The role of Osama Bin Laden was simply that of the scapegoat in a false-flag operation; neither he nor the Taliban had anything to do with the destruction of the Twin Towers.
If the people who run the C.I.A. and the U.S. government know about the discovery of super-thermite and explosives in the World Trade Center, why do they continue to wage war in Afghanistan? Well, we know Afghanistan's production of opium has increased greatly under the U.S.-led occupation. It was recently reported that use of opiate drugs, including heroin and opium, has doubled in Afghanistan since 2005, with nearly 3 percent of the adult population now addicted. Prior to the U.S. invasion in 2001, the Taliban regime had virtually eradicated the production of opium. Increased production of opium is clearly one of the results of the U.S. occupation of Afghanistan, but is that the only reason? Afghanistan is also one of the crown jewels of Asia, extremely well endowed with rare minerals and gems, and situated between Russia, Turkmenistan, China, Pakistan, Iran, and the West. To control Afghanistan is to control one of the wealthiest and most important strategic corridors in the world. This is why the Soviet Union tried to occupy Afghanistan in the 1980s and why the U.S.-led coalition has tried to do the same since 2001. Besides its enormous wealth of rare and strategic minerals, Afghanistan is located between the Israeli-owned gas fields of Turkmenistan and the energy-starved markets of India and China. If Afghanistan were brought under U.S. and Zionist control, the planned TAPI (Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India) gas pipeline through Kandahar would bring billions of dollars into Mossad's coffers every year. This is the real reason why Ehud Barak and Haim Saban are pushing for the conquest of Afghanistan. These people will use every trick in the book to see this pipeline built, but how many people must die for Israeli profits? Who are the people behind the crafting of the war policy in Afghanistan? We can easily identify two groups who are pushing the war policy in Afghanistan: the C.I.A. and the Israelis. The C.I.A. is clearly waging its own war in Afghanistan and Pakistan with its use of drone-launched missiles while the Israelis have called for the U.S. invasion of the country from the beginning. Ehud Barak, the current Israeli defense minister, was actually the first person to call for the invasion of Afghanistan, which he did on 9-11, only minutes after the demolition of the World Trade Center, on the BBC. OBAMA'S WAR FOR ISRAEL To understand that the "War on Terror" (with its invasion and occupation of Afghanistan) is a Zionist construct, it is helpful to review the Israeli role in its development and realization: ·PREPARING THE GROUND - The idea of the "War on Terror" and its conceptual framework was first articulated and promoted by Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel's Yonatan Institute of Terrorism in the early 1980s in a series of speeches, seminars, articles, and books. The basic idea is that Israel's survival required that the militaries of the United States and Europe be stationed in the Middle East to defeat and occupy the states that support terrorism – on a long-term basis. Terrorism, or a state that supports terrorism, as defined by the Israeli doctrine, is any act (or state) of resistance against Israeli hegemony and aggression. The "War on Terror" doctrine was taught to highest-level U.S. leaders, such as George H.W. Bush, who attended the first conference of the Yonatan Institute of Terrorism in 1979. Netanyahu is a former soldier of Israel's elite Sayeret Matkal and served under Ehud Barak, his commander.

The War in Iraq - Riley and His Story
May 1, 2010
The United States has been at war in Iraq since January 1991, more than 19 years. Started by President George H.W. Bush, the war went through a phase of 12 years of punishing sanctions, no-fly zones, and bombings during the administrations of Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, until the legally-challenged invasion of 2003 and subsequent war of occupation. Hundreds of thousands of U.S. veterans of this 20-year war now have serious health problems, physical and mental. One of the things I have noticed is the difficulties the men have relating with their families when they are back in the states. As a result of the prolonged and intense psychological stress of war a sense of alienation from their wives and children may occur in some military families.

Dying in Vain - Why Afghanistan?
Updated - February 8, 2010
Have the Americans and Europeans killed in Afghanistan died in vain? That is the case with eight American soldiers killed last October trying to defend a remote outpost in eastern Afghanistan that the military did not deem important enough to reinforce or make more secure. What really is the mission in Afghanistan? Have all these people died in vain? The administration of Barack Hussein Obama II has requested $70 billion (U.S. dollars) more for its war in Afghanistan for 2010 (on top of $230 billion already spent). In comparison, the U.S. will spend only $1.6 billion on Amtrak, the national passenger railroad system. That means that Obama spends about $192 million per day in Afghanistan on a senseless and illegal war, which is more than the U.S. spends in 44 days to provide passenger rail service for 300 million Americans. The U.S. spends more in 9 days on the Afghanistan fiasco than it spends in one year to provide clean and efficient rail service for the entire nation. This is hardly the "change" America wants or needs, Mr. Obama.
Note: Jerry Mazza, an editor of Online Journal, has an excellent article, "Ramping up Afghanistan war to control Caspian oil and gas transport routes" that supports my thesis, first published in October 2001, that the war in Afghanistan is a military campaign to secure pipeline routes for the Israeli-owned gas of Turkmenistan. The Mazza article is highly recommended and can be read here: http://onlinejournal.com/artman/publish/article_5354.shtml * * * * * In a nationally televised speech at the U.S. Military Acadamy at West Point, President Barack Hussein Obama announced that he will send another 30,000 American soldiers to Afghanistan. Why is Obama sending so many troops to Central Asia? What is the U.S. military really fighting for in Afghanistan? Why are we still there? Obama's December 1 speech at West Point about the war in Afghanistan presented a "false reading of history" about 9-11. The president's speech on Afghanistan featured a repetition of the fundamental lies about who is really responsible for the terror attacks of 9-11. The 2009 scientific paper on the discovery of super-thermite in the dust of the World Trade Center by Dr. Steven E. Jones has exposed these claims to be fabrications and revealed to the world that the Twin Towers were pulverized using an extremely sophisticated and powerful nano-composite explosive. It should be noted that President Obama and his senior staff are fully aware that the U.S. rationale for the invasion of Afghanistan is based on a pack of lies. History will not judge them lightly for such deceit.
Obama repeated the following key lies about 9-11 and Afghanistan during his speech:
Why Afghanistan?By Christopher Bollyn
The discovery of super-Thermite in the dust exposes the government-funded reports as fabrications created to conceal the explosive demolition of the Twin Towers and WTC 7. The 9-11 reports produced by the federal agencies FEMA and NIST were written to mislead the public and media about what really happened to the buildings – and the thousands of people trapped within them. This is to say that the U.S. government and controlled media have intentionally deceived the public for eight years. We know that September the 11th, the attacks on New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington, were directed from a valley in Afghanistan. We should not have to learn that again. What we are doing is truly protecting the American people by providing for a stable government in Pak… in Afghanistan. About the war in Afghanistan, Wilson repeated the lie he has been telling for years, using the word "truly," as he often does. "This is truly an issue of protecting American families at home by defeating the terrorists overseas," he said.
On 9-11, Ehud Barak, the former Israeli prime/defense minister/military intelligence chief, was the first person to call for the U.S. to attack Afghanistan. Barak told Rupert Murdoch's Sky Television in London that Western governments needed to make a concerted effort to combat terrorism: "Most obviously my guess is a bin Laden organization...We have to stand firm against such terrorism," Barak said.
Maiman was described as "a leading miner" of Central Asian gas fields by the Jerusalem Post in 2004. Given the fact that he controls the immense gas resources of Turkmenistan, the Israeli Maiman, his Merhav company, and his fellow Mossadniks would all profit immensely -- if and when the U.S.-led coalition were able to "pacify" and control Afghanistan so that the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India (TAPI) gas pipeline could be built allowing the gas of Turkmenistan to be sold to energy-hungry India. The TAPI pipeline project would bring billions of dollars into Mossad coffers every year. This is the real reason for the war in Afghanistan and why the Zionist-controlled Obama administration has increased the war effort in Central Asia. It really has nothing to do with "Islamic terrorism" or 9-11.
Maiman's network reveals the Mossad-controlled companies linked to 9-11 and the war in Afghanistan. Maiman, for example, is an owner and director of Eltek, Ltd. an Israeli manufacturer of printed circuit boards, along with Eytan Barak. Barak is also a director of ICTS International N.V., the Israeli aviation security company that owns Huntleigh USA, the passenger screening company directly involved with the planes and passenger screening operations on 9-11. Barak is a director of ICTS, a member of the supervisory board, audit committee, and compensation committee. Huntleigh is a key defendant in the 9-11 tort litigation but the Mossad-owned company has been protected by the Zionist Alvin K. Hellerstein, the U.S. District Judge who has prevented any 9-11 trial from finding those responsible for the terror atrocity that changed the world. Finis

Why Are We Unable to Resist?
Updated: October 20, 2009
Having grown up during the Vietnam War, I was immersed in the protest movement and vibrant anti-war music and culture of the 1960s. "Lucky Man" by Emerson, Lake, and Palmer is a good example of the anti-war music of the time. I find it odd that there is no similar anti-war movement or music today. Faced with never-ending wars in the Middle East, today's youth seem completely apathetic and apolitical. During the years that I attended public school, the United States was engaged in an undeclared war of aggression in Southeast Asia that nobody really understood. Every week, the American people saw actual photos from the war in LIFE magazine and could easily see through the deception that we were fighting "communism". After 8 years of war in Afghanistan and 18 years in Iraq, however, there is no similar photo-journalism of comparable quality coming from the "embedded" journalists covering these wars. Likewise, there is virtually no anti-war music or protest movement against the criminal wars being fought in our name. Why? We have to look at the media to understand the lack of a similar anti-war movement in the United States. Today, there is no mass resistance because the U.S. media is now completely owned and controlled by Zionist Jews who actually support the fraudulent "War on Terror" and the illegal wars being fought by the United States and its allies. These wars are being waged to benefit Israel and strengthen the Zionist hegemony in the Middle East and Central Asia. The Zionist-controlled mass media in the United States now works full time to promote the war agenda - first Afghanistan, then Iraq, and now Iran. In the Zionist-controlled media there is no room for any real criticism of the Zionist war agenda. Paul Wolfowitz, one of the senior U.S. officials who conspired and planned the wars of aggression against both Afghanistan and Iraq, is now pushing for war against Iran in the pages of the Financial Times (U.K.), for example. It needs to be understood that Wolfowitz is guilty of the most serious war crime, "a crime against peace" as defined by the Nuremberg Principles. That his opinion is published in a leading financial paper illustrates my point that the mass media actively promotes the Zionist war agenda. Wolfowitz has strong connections to the state of Israel. He lived in Israel as a teenager when his Polish-born father, Jacob, worked at the Technion, and his sister, Laura, married an Israeli and lives in Jerusalem. The controlled media today censors and sanitizes the images and information about the wars and the human suffering the aggression has caused to the people of Iraq and Afghanistan. The public is kept in the dark about the true costs of the illegal wars, both human and financial. Most importantly, the U.S. media keeps powerful images like these from the Vietnam and Iraq wars off the pages of our newspapers.
After nearly 19 years of fighting and bombing Iraqis, very few images of the human cost of the war have been published. The ones that have been seen are horrible beyond belief and reveal the criminal nature of the war of aggression.
The Vietnam war was being fought, we were told, to keep Southeast Asia from falling to the communists. Thousands of young men, including several of my relatives, went to Vietnam to fight "communism". Many thousands of young Americans died in Viet Nam. An untold number of Vietnamese died.
Petherick fired me after a three-man team of heavily-armed undercover police broke my arm and TASERed me in front of my family, but only after collecting many thousands of dollars from readers for the Bollyn "legal defense fund," which were kept by the so-called employee owned newspaper. I later discovered that the newspaper and the organization behind it, the Liberty Lobby, are actually owned by the Jewish leftist lawyer, Mark Lane, and have been since the early 1990s when he bought the assets of Liberty Lobby with some of the $5 million he had been paid by Willis A. Carto in legal fees. I learned this from L.T. Patterson, publisher of Criminal Politics of Cincinnati. Patterson's newsletter is similar to the publications of the Mark Lane's Liberty Lobby, which is what led Lane to sue Patterson in the mid-1990s for some $10 million. Lane, a Zionist Jew, wanted to have a monopoly in the patriotic newspaper business. During the legal process Patterson learned that Lane had acquired the assets of the nearly bankrupt Liberty Lobby in the early 1990s. Manfred Roeder, a German patriot who has been imprisoned often in occupied Germany, told me that such controlled opposition newspapers like National Zeitung are designed to skim the cream off of the nationalist movement. They also serve as outlets of disinformation and have even more sinister purposes.
As the U.S. prepared for war in Kuwait and Iraq in the summer of 1990, I began organizing pro-Palestinian students at the University of California at Santa Cruz who were opposed to the war effort. I learned a great deal through my anti-war efforts. I saw how the anti-war movement was taken over by Jewish students from the Hillel organization (B'nai B'rith). The issue of occupied Palestine was pushed to the side. This is what controlled opposition means: controlling both sides of the debate to control the message. James B. Phillips, a devout Catholic and dear friend from Chicago who served in Vietnam, recently sent me a video from the mid-1980s that explains how Americans have been demoralized and why.
The information comes from a former agent of the Soviet K.G.B. who defected to the United States. As the former Soviet journalist Yuri Bezmenov says in the video clip about the KGB's demoralization of American youth through the media, "Ideological subversion is the process which is legitimate and open. You can see it with your own eyes.... It has nothing to do with espionage... in reality the main emphasis of the KGB is NOT in the area of intelligence at all. According to my opinion, and the opinions of many defectors of my caliber, only about 15% of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage as such. The other 85 percent is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion, active measures, or psychological warfare. What it basically means is to change the perception of reality of every American [so] that despite the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country." Today, nearly every network and news outlet in the U.S. mass media is owned and controlled by Zionist Jews. This is a statement of fact and should not be misconstrued to be anti-Semitic in any way. Zionist Jews control nearly all of the U.S. mass media: television and radio networks, major newspapers, book publishers and leading book stores, and the big film studios and chains of movie theatres. They have taken control of the media for one reason - to manipulate public opinion by controlling the message. It is the same with media as with pipelines: He who owns the pipeline controls the product. Many of the Jewish media moguls are members of the secret organization of Freemasons, the International Order of B'nai B'rith. Philip Morris Klutznick, the man who made Obama president, was the international president of B'nai B'rith. The Sulzberger family who owns the New York Times was one of the founding families of Lodge No. 1 of the B'nai B'rith, which was started in New York City in 1843. It is through this secret society, which is closed to all non-Jews, that the media moguls and Jewish financiers are able to conspire against the American people while living among them. The B'nai B'rith also started the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) in the early 1900s. The ADL is an organization that protects the Jewish criminal network by attacking those who expose their crimes. The ADL has infiltrated police departments across the United States. The B'nai B'rith also runs Hillel, an organization for promoting the Zionist agenda at every college campus in the United States. Through their organizations like the ADL and Hillel, the secretive Elders of Zion of the B'nai B'rith are able to push their agenda into every community and college campus in America. The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is certainly not a "hoary fake", and is most likely the protocols from a meeting of the leaders of the B'nai B'rith. Bezmenov's statement about the KGB being primarily occupied with disinformation and demoralization efforts aimed at Americans through the media is similar to the analysis by the German intelligence expert, Andreas von Bülow, who told me that 90 percent of the work done by the CIA and other intelligence agencies is disinformation and deception. It needs to be understood that communism and Zionism are fraternal twins from the same mother -- big Jewish capital of the Rothschild sort. This relationship can be seen in Rahm Emanuel and David Axelrod, the most senior advisers of President Barack Hussein Obama II. Emanuel, the son of a Zionist terrorist, and Axelrod, the son of Jewish communists, were commissioned in 1992 by the daughter of Jewish financier Philip Morris Klutznick of Chicago to make Obama our "first black president." Zionism and communism are two heads of the same evil beast. Communism and Zionism emerged together in the Russian Empire in the late 1800s. There were six communist parties, two of which were also Zionist. Although the Rothschild family who created the state of Israel is capitalist, the Russian Jews who emigrated to Palestine in the late 1800s and early 1900s were ardent communists and socialists. Most of the Ashkenazi (Khazar and Slavic) Jews who built the Zionist state and who run it to this day come from the communist and Zionist parties that created the kibbutz and moshav settlements in Palestine. The Jews who were forced to emigrate to Palestine (later Israel) and the millions of people who have lived under communism are similar. Zionists and communists are both merely the pawns of the Rothschilds; foot soldiers for international Jewish bankers. Originally posted on September 30, 2009
The Christmas Bomber and the Fraudulent War on Terror
January 11, 2010
The Christmas Bomber and the Fraudulent War on Terror by Christopher Bollyn In Washington, President Obama is under pressure to take action. The Christmas Day attempted attack over Detroit may have failed, but it brought back instant memories of 9/11. Military action will continue. On 18 November 2009 I published a warning in which I said there was a "very high" risk of a false-flag "Al Qaida" terror attack against Americans. The warning was the thrust of my article, entitled “Terror Risk High as Obama Ponders Afghan Fiasco,” which begins with this sentence: "The risk of another false-flag terror attack like the terror atrocities of 9-11 is currently very high." (A "false-flag" terror incident is one that is designed to affect public opinion by being blamed on a third party by the real perpetrators.) On Christmas Day, thirty-seven days after my article was published on Bollyn.com, the false-flag terror incident I predicted occurred on a passenger airliner approaching Detroit's Metro Airport.
My November 18 warning of a false-flag terror attack was the first I have ever issued based on my own understanding of the political situation at hand. I decided to publish the warning because I was absolutely convinced that the Zionist planners behind the fraudulent "War on Terror" desperately needed a high-profile terrorist incident involving Americans to gain public and political support to legitimize the actions the Obama administration has taken to advance the Zionist war on Islam. As President Barack Obama called for a massive troop surge in Afghanistan there was clearly an urgent need to validate his ill-advised policies to increase U.S. force levels in the disastrous and costly eight-year-old war - a war of aggression which lacks any validity. Since terrorism is the primary tool and tactic in the Zionist construct known as the "War on Terror" it seemed quite logical that a false-flag terror event involving "al Qaida" was imminent, so I published the warning.
The “failed al-Qaida bombing attempt” on Christmas Day in Detroit, on the other hand, is exactly the kind of false-flag terror attack I meant in my warning, although I hadn't anticipated the possibility of an "intentional dud," which this incident evidently was. Readers of Bollyn.com know that this was the first and only time I have published a false-flag terror warning based on my own understanding of the logic and players in the Zionist fraud known as the "War on Terror." The risk of another false-flag terror attack like the terror atrocities of 9-11 is currently very high…An Israeli-designed terror attack that is seen by the public as having been committed by Al Qaida would serve as an effective decision maker for Obama and swing public opinion behind sending more troops to the eight-year-old war of occupation in Afghanistan. This is why I consider the chances of another terror attack to be blamed on Al Qaida to be very high at the moment. The Christmas Day attack of the so-called Underwear Bomber on Delta’s Northwest Airlines Flight 253 is Mossad's idea of a joke but it is certainly meant to be taken with all seriousness by the Zionist-controlled media and corrupt politicians who make policy decisions based on such events. Jeremy Bowen, Middle East Editor for the BBC, distilled the propaganda message of the Christmas Day bomber down to its simplest form for public consumption on January 5: In Washington, President Obama is under pressure to take action. The Christmas Day attempted attack over Detroit may have failed, but it brought back instant memories of 9/11. Military action will continue. MILITARY ACTION WILL CONTINUE
The attempted bombing of Flight 253 by the 23-year-old Nigerian was obviously not meant to destroy the plane. Had Abdul Mutallab actually exploded his "explosive device" the terror event would have had no immediate propaganda value. First, the wreckage would have to be found in the depths of the North Atlantic or expanses of eastern Canada and then an official investigation conducted to determine what had happened to the Delta flight that had suddenly disappeared from the radar screen. It could take weeks or months before anyone would even be blamed for the attack. That certainly wouldn't help the Zionist planners advance their "War on Terror" so it was decided to carry out an "attempted" bombing, like the earlier "shoe bomber," in which the inept bomber would be caught red-handed in the act of committing a terror atrocity.
A group of Republican senators, led by the pro-Israel Republican John McCain (who visited Israel over the weekend of January 9-10) are seeking to transfer the Abdul Mutallab case to a military court. Why would a pro-Israeli senator like McCain want this young Nigerian tried by a military tribunal? McCain and others argue that critical questions such as the identities of those who assisted and trained Abdul Mutallab remain unanswered. Indeed, they are and will probably remain so. Did he receive funding and support from others, and if so, from whom? The first question should be whether Abdul Mutallab was really in his right mind or whether he had been subjected to mind-control methods that made him an unwitting Manchurian Candidate. Eyewitness reports about his appearance and initial responses strongly suggest that he was under some form of mind-control. Will a trial in a U.S. District Court really get to the bottom of who is behind Abdul Mutallab? The U.S. war in Afghanistan is supposedly being waged against Al Qaida because of their role in the terror attacks of 9-11, but the actual target has always been the Taliban, an Islamic movement. Islamic movements of this type are naturally anti-Zionist. The Israeli planners of the War on Terror seek to inflame passions on both sides to the point that the U.S. war on Islam takes on its own dynamic but that has not yet happened so the Zionist terrorists stoke the fire by creating false-flag terror events like 9-11 - and the attempted bombing of the Delta flight on Christmas Day.
The Israeli Mossad continues to operate in Yemen, as the President of Yemen Ali Abdullah Saleh revealed openly in early October 2008: "A terrorist cell was arrested five days ago and will be referred to the judicial authorities for its links with the Israeli intelligence services."

False Flag Terror Risk High as Obama Ponders Afghan Fiasco
November 18, 2009
Unlike Alexander the Great, the U.S. has not built any new cities in Afghanistan and they are having a very hard time holding on to the capital, Kabul, which is the only place their installed puppet Hamid Karzai has any political power whatsoever. The fact that Karzai stole the recent election through massive vote fraud exposes the lie that the U.S. is fighting to bring democracy to Afghanistan. Thus far the U.S.-led occupation has only succeeded in producing bumper crops of opium for the illegal drug trade and putting in power one of the most corrupt regimes on Earth. The cost of the illegal invasions and occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq is already more than $1 trillion, when one factors in the future costs that will be incurred from the long-term care for the thousands of seriously wounded and mentally disturbed U.S. veterans, which already number in the tens of thousands. Pray tell, Mr. Obama, exactly what benefits have these illegal wars brought to the American people to justify such huge costs? Why are we still slogging away against the people of Afghanistan?
As President Barack Hussein Obama ponders what to do about the fiasco in Afghanistan, the risk of a false-flag terror attack that forces his hand is greatly increased. An Israeli-designed terror attack that is seen by the public as having been committed by Al Qaida would serve as an effective decision maker for Obama and swing public opinion behind sending more troops to the eight-year-old war of occupation in Afghanistan. This is why I consider the chances of another terror attack to be blamed on Al Qaida to be very high at the moment. The false-flag terror attack may not happen in the United States. The U.S.-occupied nations of Iraq and Afghanistan (as well as Pakistan) suffer false-flag terror attacks on a weekly basis, especially when there is a foreign dignitary like Hillary Clinton around to impress. These nations suffer terror casualties on the scale of 9-11 every year. A spectacular terror attack during a high profile diplomatic visit is typical of Israeli-designed terror attacks. They carried out one like this in Israel a few years ago across the street from the hotel of a visiting American diplomat to press their point. The victims were mainly Russian immigrants. Because it is much easier for the Zionists to carry out large scale false-flag terror attacks in these occupied nations there might be a terror attack on U.S. forces that compels Obama to send more forces. What the architects of the "War on Terror" clearly need to do is try to get U.S. and Euopean public opinion behind their fraudulent war in Afghanistan. They would be aiming to carry out a false-flag attack that decisively swings public opinion behind a massive increase in troops on the ground in occupied Afghanistan.
One has to remember that the real goal of the war in Afghanistan has nothing to do with democracy or the terrorism of 9-11. The U.S.-led invasion and occupation is meant to occupy and pacify the country to allow for the construction of the TAPI pipeline to transport the Mossad-owned gas of Turkmenistan to India and China. When this pipeline is built, the Mossadnik Yosef Maiman and his Israeli partners will become tremendously wealthy selling the gas resources of Turkmenistan, which they own and control.
The Israelis certainly have not shelved this plan because of the high casualties being suffered by U.S. and NATO forces. The Israeli terrorists who masterminded 9-11, the invasion of Afghanistan, and the utterly fraudulent "War on Terror" (e.g. Shimon Peres, Benjamin Netanyahu, and Ehud Barak) are at the top of their game -- and running the Israeli government.
The current Israeli government is very close to the Obama administration. With Rahm Emanuel, the son of a Zionist terrorist, running the White House, one might think that the Israeli government is calling the shots in the Oval Office. As Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Lally Weymouth, senior editor of Newsweek and The Washington Post (both owned by her family, the descendants of the Zionist and German Jewish banker Eugene Meyer), in late October 2009: There is much greater cooperation and transparency between the Obama administration and my government than people know. We speak openly and I greatly appreciate steps taken by the Obama administration against the distorted Goldstone report and their pressure on Iran to stop its military nuclear program as well as the ongoing efforts we are making to re-launch the peace negotiations between us and the Palestinians.
Lally Weymouth is the daughter of Katharine (Meyer) Graham and grandaughter of Eugene Isaac Meyer, the Zionist Jew banker of Lazard Freres who served as Chairman of the Federal Reserve from 1930 to 1933 and who bought The Washington Post at a bankruptcy auction in 1933. Like most U.S. news outlets, both the New York Times and Washington Post are owned by Zionist Jewish families. Sources and Recommended Reading:
Gitmo Gulag Fraud and Chaos
July 16, 2009
The BBC is reporting that the fraudulent Soviet-style military tribunals in Gitmo have fallen into chaos (not a big fall for such a seriously flawed process). The article, "Chaos besets 9/11 court hearing," reports: Scenes of chaos have gripped a US military court in Guantanamo Bay where five alleged 9/11 plotters were due to appear together before a judge. All five, including alleged mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, initially refused to attend the hearing. The judge rejected prosecution calls for them to be compelled to attend but three did appear after a recess. The hearing focuses on whether two of the accused are mentally competent to represent themselves... It should be noted that the person who is said by the U.S. government to be Khalid Sheikh Mohammed is clearly not who they say he is. My research has found that the evidence indicates that he is another person, a feeble-minded person who is being scape-goated as the "mastermind of 9-11." I have written about this in several articles. I spoke with a former professor who taught KSM at a university in North Carolina. Shown the photos of the person said to be KSM, the professor said he had never seen that face before.
The three articles (No. 6,7, and 8) about the hoax of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed can be read near the end of the webpage with my articles from 2007 about 9-11:
Richard Holbrooke and the Zionist War on Terror
July 7, 2009  Dick Holbrooke in Afghanistan in 2006. Understanding Holbrooke's mission in Central Asia requires knowing who this "hyperaggressive" Zionist "master of disaster" really is. War weary Americans who hoped the new Obama administration would change U.S. policies in Iraq and Afghanistan and bring the troops home must be sorely disappointed. The only Americans coming home these days are those who have died in the senseless conflict. More troops are being sent to fight a war that is understood neither by the American public nor by the people doing the fighting.  Americans are coming home from Afghanistan in caskets under the cover of night. Admiral Michael Mullen, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, appeared on "Face the Nation" on Sunday, July 5, to discuss U.S. military actions in the Middle East. During the interview Mullen revealed what he called the real strategy in Afghanistan: to clear, hold, and build. The first question asked of Mullen was about the military situation in Afghanistan as the U.S. Marines carry out a large offensive known as Operation Strike of the Sword or Operation Khanjar (Arabic for "dagger"): Admiral Mike Mullen: I suspect it’s going to be tough for a while. And again, we have enough forces there now not just to clear an area but to hold it so we can build after. And that’s really the strategy. The logical question to ask Mullen would have been, "What is it that we want to build in Afghanistan?" although John Dickerson of CBS News did not ask. If building is "really the strategy" in Afghanistan as Admiral Mullen says, what is it that so badly needs to be built? WHY ARE WE IN AFGHANISTAN? U.S. troops have been in Afghanistan since October 2001 when they were supposedly sent in response to 9-11, although no Afghans were involved in the terror attacks. The stated aim of the Anglo-American invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 was to find Osama Bin Laden and other Al Qaida members and put them on trial. The U.S., however, said it had given up its pursuit of Osama Bin Laden years ago. So why did the U.S. and Britain really invade Afghanistan -- and why are we still there? Why has President Obama increased troop levels in Afghanistan? The short answer is the TAPI gas pipeline, which will carry gas from Israeli-owned and managed gas fields in Turkmenistan to Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, and China. The TAPI pipeline needs to cross Helmand province in the south of Afghanistan. Turkmenistan and Afghanistan are both very rich in gas reserves. The Turkmen mineral assets are managed by the former Mossad agent Yosef Maiman. Building the TAPI pipeline is a Zionist pipe dream that will use the mineral wealth of Turkmenistan to benefit Maiman and his partners. This is the main development project that U.S. policy is trying to accomplish. Transit fees from the gas pipeline are intended to support the government in Kabul.  Yosef Maiman, Israeli Mossad agent, owns much of the gas of Turkmenistan and controls all of it. Admiral Mullen touched on this development in the interview: We’ve got to move to a point where there’s security so that the economic underpinnings can start to move, development, that we can create governance so that the Afghan people can get goods and services consistently from their government. Are we to believe that the U.S. is fighting an 8-year war in Afghanistan in order to make sure the Afghans can get "goods and services consistently from their government?" Have we spent hundreds of billions of dollars in Afghanistan so we can build post offices, train stations, and power plants? What are the "economic underpinnings" that need to "start to move?" Why would the U.S. government care more about providing "goods and services" to the people of Afghanistan than, say, the people of California? Mullen touched only lightly on the subject and CBS News was certainly not asking the questions that would allow Americans to really understand the U.S. strategy in Afghanistan. "The economic development the generals talk about, including gas pipeline construction, requires stability," Gary Leupp wrote in Counterpunch on July 6, "But Afghanistan, like Iraq, was destabilized precisely by a U.S. attack and occupation in the first place. More ominously, Pakistan has been destabilized by the invasion of the next-door country." Why are Americans fighting wars in Central Asia for a pipeline from Turkmenistan? To understand why Obama is pushing the war in Afghanistan, one needs to understand that the Obama administration is really a Zionist-controlled government. If this were not already abundantly clear, it can be seen by the person appointed to apply U.S. policy in the region. That person is Richard Charles Albert Holbrooke, one of Obama's first appointments. Holbrooke, a Zionist Jew and a long-time associate of Henry Kissinger, is the Special Representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan. Holbrooke is described by State Dept. workers as "abrasive and arrogant." He is a student of Kissinger-style diplomacy with a "hyperaggressive style," according to Meryl Gordon of New York Magazine. Holbrooke and Kissinger have been friends and co-workers since the early 1960s in Vietnam. Gordon wrote that Holbrooke is often described as "arrogant, ambitious, pushy, relentless, argumentative, ego-obsessed, social-climbing, and just plain rude." James Hoge, editor of Foreign Affairs said, Holbrooke is brusque and impatient with those who disagree with him. "Dick can't brook argument. He's right, you're wrong." Holbrooke was a director of Maurice Greenberg's incredibly badly-run A.I.G. insurance company from 2001-2008. A.I.G. is really a criminal enterprise, indicted on numerous charges, which insured investment banks against losses from the extremely risky financial "instruments" that caused the financial collapse of 2008. When these risky instruments failed, A.I.G. was bailed out with more than $180 billion of U.S. taxpayer dollars, which it then distributed to the dodgy investment banks it had insured. A.I.G. has already cost every man, woman, and child in the United States about $600 each. Holbrooke was a key insider in this tremendous scam. Greenberg and A.I.G. are also involved in the terror attacks of 9-11 and the fraudulent "War on Terror" in many ways. The first plane that struck the World Trade Center, for example, flew directly into the secure computer room of a Greenberg-owned and managed company, Marsh. Prior to A.I.G., Holbrooke was a vice chairman at Credit Suisse First Boston. First Boston was the place where the mortgage-based securities were first created under Laurence D. Fink. (Fink developed mortgage-based securities at First Boston in the mid-1970s when 9-11 "whistle-blower" Indira Singh worked there on the IT and risk consulting end of the business.) On January 22, two days after taking office, Obama named Holbrooke as special envoy to Afghanistan and Pakistan. At this point, the U.S. government had already bailed-out Holbrooke's company to the tune of some $180 billion, the largest government bail-out in U.S. history. Yet two months later, Obama blasted A.I.G., calling their business practices "outrageous" and trying to distance his administration, which includes a former director of A.I.G., from the tremendous cost the A.I.G. bail-out imposed on the U.S. taxpayer: "Nobody here was responsible for supervising A.I.G. and allowing themselves to put the economy at risk by some of the outrageous behavior that they were engaged in," the president said.  Richard Holbrooke of A.I.G. and George Mitchell were both early Obama appointments. Obama reportedly did not talk with Holbrooke about the $180 billion bail-out of the company he had been a long-time director of. Instead he lied by saying no one in his administration was responsible for supervising A.I.G. Obama's denial is clearly not true. Holbrooke, an Obama appointee, had his hands deep in the A.I.G. scam for 8 years and had made a good living doing so. Fox News reported on March 19, 2009, that Holbrooke made more than $250,000 a year as a director at A.I.G.: Holbrooke joined AIG's board in February 2001 and resigned in July 2008, two months before the company nearly collapsed. Over more than seven years as a board member, he may have earned as much as $800,000 in cash and company stock, according to AIG financial documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Since September, AIG has received $180 billion in taxpayer money to keep it from failing and causing more damage to the U.S. economy… For much of his tenure on the AIG board, Holbrooke had a role in approving salaries and compensation. From 2001 until mid-2005, he was a member of the board's compensation committee. According to AIG financial statements, the committee sets the salary for the company's chief executive officer [Maurice Greenberg] and gives advice on how other senior managers are to be compensated. HOLBROOKE AND VIETNAM When critics call the conflict in Afghanistan "Obama's Vietnam" they are not far off. Holbrooke was a key player in the Vietnam war from 1962 to 1969. His biography concerning Viet Nam looks like this: Joined Foreign Service US Department State, 1962, served in South Vietnam Saigon, 1963-66; staff member The White House, 1966-67; assigned US Department State; staff Paris Peace Talks on Vietnam, 1968-69. From his high-level position in the development of the war in Viet Nam as assistant to ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge, Holbrooke and Henry Kissinger have worked closely together since the early-1960s.Holbrooke was sent to Vietnam in 1962 to serve as an assistant to ambassador Lodge, while Henry Kissinger, a Harvard professor, was the ambassador's adviser. Gordon wrote that Kissinger recalled watching a parade in Saigon from Holbrooke's apartment. Holbrooke and Kissinger have continued to work very closely together at the American Academy in Berlin, which they founded in 1994. The academy is located in a lakeside mansion across from the train station in Wannsee. In 2008, Holbrooke gave the Kissinger award to George H.W. Bush. Why are Holbrooke and Kissinger giving prizes to former U.S. presidents?  George W. Bush receiving the Kissinger Prize in 2008 In an odd breach of diplomatic protocol, Henry Kissinger was sent by the Obama administration to hold high-level talks with the leaders of Russia in March instead of the Secretary of State. Why was Kissinger speaking for the United States under the newly-elected Obama administration? Who really makes U.S. foreign policy?  Kissinger meeting Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin on March 19, 2009 Holbrooke also played a key role in the U.S.-led bombing and subsequent Balkanization of Yugoslavia, in which the formerly prosperous and socialist nation was carved up into ethnic mini-statelets. The breaking up of Yugoslavia resulted in a significant reduction in the standard of living across the nation. NATO continues to control the statelet of Kosovo, which was literally ripped off from Serbia along with Trepca, one of the richest mines in Europe. The New York Times of May 5, 2009 describes Holbrooke as a key member of the Obama team and says he is being considered as a possible national security adviser. During the disastrous conflict in August between Russia and Georgia, the NYT profile says Holbrooke "was one of the first Americans to fly to Tbilisi to meet with the Georgian leader Mikhail Saakashvili, a friend." Whatever advice Holbrooke gave his "friend" Saakashvili was clearly bad advice. Holbrooke, who is called "the bulldozer" by some who know him, is a pushy individual who has been involved at the highest level in one disaster after another since the early 1960s. Now he is the point man in a disastrous and senseless war in Central Asia, which has gotten much worse since he joined the effort in January 2009. Why is Holbrooke put into such positions of power in the first place? The man, after all, has a long record of creating mega-disasters.  Holbrooke visited refugees who had been driven from Pakistan's Swat valley in early June. "Are you glad the army came in, even though you were driven out of your homes?" Holbrooke reportedly asked the refugees. To understand why Holbrooke is put into these positions, it is necessary to understand who he really is. Although it is not reported in biographical sketches, Holbrooke belongs to a very highly-connected family that is related to the Rothschild and Guggenheim families, among others. It is his German Jewish family connections that have placed him in positions of power in the U.S. government. Richard Charles Albert Holbrooke was born April 24, 1941, to Dan Holbrooke and Gertrudis "Trudi" Moos Holbrooke. Dan, his father, was a Polish Jewish immigrant who changed his name to Holbrooke. Biographical sketches claim that Dan's original surname has been lost, which is very unlikely. Dan Holbrooke's real name has been hidden in the same way that the family has sought to hide its Jewish roots. But why would the Holbrooke family want to hide its Jewishness? Celia Mcgee of the New York Observer wrote about Holbrooke in 1998: The son of Dan and Trudi Holbrooke, raised in Scarsdale, N.Y., schooled at Brown University, he was a son of assimilated, upper-class Jews who fled Nazi racism. "I've been with him plenty of times when his Jewishness was obvious," said his friend Stanley Karnow, the journalist and author, "and he jokes about it plenty, too. It just isn't an issue with him, or Kati." Holbrooke's father, whose real name is not known, died when Holbrooke was 16. His mother comes from the influential merchant Moos family of Baden-Württemberg in southern Germany. The Moos family is engaged in leather trading and moved their business to Argentina in 1922. Holbrooke's grandfather Samuel Moos was born in Reutlingen in 1889 and married Valesca Friedheim of Zurich. Samuel and Valesca lived in Buenos Aires where the leather-trading business is run in the name of the company founder, Elias Moos S.A. The Moos family, which is related by marriage to the Rothschild, Guggenheim, Weil, Marx, and Einstein families, traveled frequently by ship between Buenos Aires, New York, and Europe. There is even a seminar room at Tel Aviv University named in honor of Samuel and Valesca Moos. The Moos family collected nearly 1 million Swiss francs from Switzerland in 2007 for money they claimed to have lost in accounts during the war, which was multiplied by a factor of 12.  The graves of Ludwig Rothschild and his wife Hanchen Moos in the Jewish graveyard of Gailingen, Germany. By understanding who Richard Holbrooke really is, what his agenda is, and who he is working for, we can see that there is a secret Zionist agenda behind the war in Afghanistan. With the appointment of Holbrooke, who is known as "the bulldozer" to oversee U.S. policy in the region, the 8-year-old war which has now spread to Pakistan is bound to become much worse. The strategic goal of the war in Afghanistan has nothing to do with terrorism and never did. Officials and media who claim that it is are simply lying.

Obama's Deception - 9-11 and Afghanistan
June 5, 2009
All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent. - Thomas Jefferson President Barack Obama's speech in Cairo on June 4 was a carefully prepared speech meant to explain the administration's policies in the Middle East to the people of the region. I listened to see how he would explain his controversial decision to increase the number of U.S. troops and military activity in Afghanistan and Pakistan, a decision I strongly oppose. What I heard in Obama's speech about Afghanistan was very discouraging in that it revealed the appalling continuation of the blatant 9-11 deception by the new administration. The war and occupation of Afghanistan was the first subject Obama addressed. The following extract is the essence of what Obama said about 9-11 and the war in Afghanistan and Pakistan: The first issue that we have to confront is violent extremism in all its forms. In Ankara, I made clear that America is not and never will be at war with Islam. We will, however, relentlessly confront violent extremists who pose a grave threat to our security because we reject the same thing that people of all faiths reject, the killing of innocent men, women, and children. And it is my first duty as president to protect the American people. The situation in Afghanistan demonstrates America's goals and our need to work together. Over seven years ago, the United States pursued Al Qaida and the Taliban with broad international support. We did not go by choice. We went because of necessity. I'm aware that there's still some who would question or even justify the offense of 9/11. But let us be clear. Al Qaida killed nearly 3,000 people on that day. The victims were innocent men, women, and children from America and many other nations who had done nothing to harm anybody. And yet Al Qaida chose to ruthlessly murder these people, claimed credit for the attack, and even now states their determination to kill on a massive scale. They have affiliates in many countries and are trying to expand their reach. These are not opinions to be debated. These are facts to be dealt with. Make no mistake, we do not want to keep our troops in Afghanistan. We see no military -- we seek no military bases there. It is agonizing for America to lose our young men and women. It is costly and politically difficult to continue this conflict. We would gladly bring every single one of our troops home if we could be confident that there were not violent extremists in Afghanistan and now Pakistan determined to kill as many Americans as they possibly can. But that is not yet the case. And that's why we're partnering with a coalition of 46 countries. And despite the costs involved, America's commitment will not weaken. This is how Obama explained the U.S. war effort in Afghanistan and Pakistan: As a necessary confrontation with 45 nations against the violent extremists behind the attacks of 9-11. We would bring our troops home, he said, if there were no "violent extremists" in those countries "determined to kill as many Americans as they possibly can."  What is the real reason behind Obama's war in Afghanistan? AFGHANS DO NOT TRUST OBAMA OR U.S. The people of Afghanistan do not like President Obama or trust the United States. Stan Grant, a CNN correspondent in Kabul, visited an Afghan university (madrassa) to see how the middle and upper-class students reacted to Obama and his speech in Cairo. Not a single student liked Obama or supported his policies in their occupied nation. If Obama had a good policy why has our society not developed in the past five years, one student asked. Another wanted to know why the U.S. and NATO had killed 1,000 Afghan civilians. "What was the matter with them? he asked. "DEMOCRACY" IN AFGHANISTAN - CODE FOR OCCUPATION RAWA supports the call for the withdrawal of the U.S. and NATO troops because occupation is not a solution. They are constantly killing civilians, even at a wedding party. Do you think we are not human beings and don't have hearts? What would Americans do if an occupier were killing so many civilians in the U.S.? … THE 9-11 DECEPTION Al Qaida was behind the mass murder of thousands of people on 9-11, Obama said. This is not an opinion to be debated, he added. "These are facts to be dealt with." If the Obama administration were truly concerned about facts, he might take note of the disturbing fact that not a single 9-11 victim's case has gone to trial after nearly 8 years. If the case against Osama Bin Laden and his agents were solid and based on facts, why has the evidence not been presented in an open trial in a U.S. court? The military is supposedly holding Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the "confessed" mastermind of 9-11, in Guantanamo. Why is this mastermind of terror not put on trial in an open court? Why have the surviving airplane parts not been identified? Why has the evidence of thermite in the collapsed towers not been addressed? One of the 9-11 facts the Obama administration will have to deal with is the evidence of super-thermite in the dust of the World Trade Center. This thin layer of super-thermite was evidently used to pulverize the concrete in the twin towers on 9-11. The people who applied tens of tons of thermite to the interiors of the twin towers are, in fact, directly responsible for the murder of 3,000 people on 9-11. If Al Qaida had teams of men spraying super-thermite and placing explosive charges in the buildings leased and owned by Larry Silverstein and the Israeli commando Frank Lowy, let's see the evidence. Otherwise, let's find out who really put the super-thermite in the twin towers. The United States went to war in Afghanistan out of "necessity," Obama said, yet the American public has not been given any solid evidence to prove that the Taliban of Afghanistan had anything to do with 9-11. Why then is the Zionist-run Obama administration sending more troops to Afghanistan? And why have they expanded the war into Pakistan? I have discussed in several articles the powerful Zionists behind the Obama White House. Obama was sponsored and molded since 1992 to be the first black president of the United States by the daughter of Philip Morris Klutznick, the former president of the B'nai B'rith and mega Zionist from Chicago. The chief of staff of the White House is Rahm Emanuel, an Israeli national whose father was a member of a Zionist terrorist organization in Palestine that was allied with Nazi Germany. These are a few real facts, not opinions, that need to be dealt with. Understanding the Zionist nature of the Obama administration, the question that must be asked is why is the administration expanding the war in Afghanistan and Pakistan? The American people certainly have no real interest in Afghanistan or Pakistan and the Afghans and Pakistanis have no real interest in America. There must be a Zionist strategic goal in controlling these two Central Asian nations, but what is it? As I pointed out in my article from 2001, "The Great Game: The War for Caspian Oil and Gas," the Israelis are deeply engaged in the region: Turkmenistan and Azerbijan are also both closely allied with Israeli commercial interests and Israeli military intelligence. In Turkmenistan, a former Israeli intelligence agent, Yosef A. Maiman, president of Merhav Group of Israel, is the official negotiator and policy maker responsible for developing the energy resources of Turkmenistan. "This is the Great Game all over," Maiman told the Wall Street Journal about his role in furthering the "geopolitical goals of both the U.S. and Israel in Central Asia. "We are doing what U.S. and Israeli policy could not achieve," he said, "Controlling the transport route is controlling the product." "Those that control the oil routes out of Central Asia will impact all future direction and quantities of flow and the distribution of revenues from new production," said energy expert James Dorian recently in Oil & Gas Journal on September 10, 2001. Foreign business in Turkmenistan is dominated by Maiman's Merhav Group, according to the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs (WRMEA). Maiman, who was made a citizen of Turkmenistan by presidential decree, serves as Turkmenistan's official negotiator for its gas pipeline, special ambassador, and right-hand man for the authoritarian President Saparmurad Atayevich Niyazov, a former Politburo member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. The Merhav Group of Israel officially represents the Turkmen government and has brokered all of the energy projects in Turkmenistan, contracts worth many billions of dollars. ISRAEL & THE TAPI PIPELINE The main Zionist goal in Afghanistan and Pakistan is to "pacify" these nations to allow the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India (TAPI) gas pipeline to be built. This line, once completed, could be extended to China. This project is the pipe dream of Joseph A. Maiman (a.k.a. Josef, Yosef, Yossi), one of the most powerful men in Israel. Yosef A. Maiman The Jerusalem Post of 23 July 2004, described Maiman as one of the leading miners of the gas of Central Asia, specifically Turkmenistan: Though his sprawling multi-billion-dollar empire stretches from Channel 10 TV, where he is a partner, to Central Asian gas fields, where he is a leading miner, Maiman was born humbly, in a displaced persons camp in Germany, and grew up in Peru. Maiman's Merhav Group started off in 1976 with Third World debt-financing, but later diversified into agriculture, energy solutions and telecoms. Today, it is the Republic of Turkmenistan's single largest foreign partner. Just two weeks ago, the Israeli foreign ministry announced it would open a new embassy in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, "saying it was a natural step in burgeoning bilateral ties, and reflected a new momentum in Israel's overall ties with the Central Asian countries," according to the Jerusalem Post of 21 May 2009. Turkmenistan is reported to be "the second largest holder of gas reserves in the world, with some 28 trillion cubic meters of proven gas reserves," second only to Russia. The "former" Israeli Mossad agent Joseph A. Maiman is reportedly the owner or co-owner of much of that gas and has been the key person managing the development of Turkmenistan's gas fields. If the TAPI pipeline were to be completed, the Israelis connected with Maiman and Merhav would collect tens of billions of dollars by selling the gas of Turkmenistan to Pakistan, India, and China. This is certainly one of the key Israeli strategic goals in Afghanistan and Pakistan. The pipeline is meant to pass through Kandahar, the area where Canadians are serving and which Canada is obliged to defend until 2012. The planned route of the TAPI pipeline Mr. Maiman is also a business partner of Rupert Murdoch and Ronald Lauder. In November 2002, Yossi Maiman and the former head of the Mossad, Shabtai Shavit, launched a new political party with the former head of the Shin Bet, Ya'acov Perry. These people are all closely tied to the false-flag terror attacks of 9-11. Their roles are described in my chapter entitled, "The Architecture of Terror." To really understand why the Obama administration is sending more troops to Afghanistan and waging war in Pakistan it is essential to understand what is at stake and who will benefit from the TAPI pipeline. Obama's speech in Cairo today was a blatant deception about the real purposes of the war in Central Asia. OBAMA IN DRESDEN Obama flew to Germany after speaking in Cairo and landed in Dresden, the Saxon capital city on the Elbe. Dresden was completely obliterated in a huge Allied fire-bombing attack on Valentines Day and Ash Wednesday 1945. Eyewitnesses to the holocaust of Dresden estimate that more than 500,000 people, including many refugees who were sheltering in the "safe" city, were killed in the attack in which the entire inner city was incinerated. Obama made a short visit to the re-built Frauenkirche and did not even address the painful subject of the Allied war crime that killed so many innocent lives in Dresden. He then went on to visit the Buchenwald concentration camp in the outskirts of Weimar where Elie Wiesel spoke at great length about the 11,000 Jews who are said to have perished in the work camp. CNN played up the fact that the camp had a crematorium with three ovens, but it did not visit the mountain of rubble in Dresden or the huge mass grave where the remains of thousands of the victims of one of the most cruel war crimes are buried. Sixty-five years later, the controlled media still ignores this subject. I spent a month in Dresden and visited Buchenwald. I discovered that the death rate for German prisoners held in Buchenwald during the Soviet occupation was much higher than the death rate in the camp during the war. Here are a few extracts from my Letter from Buchenwald: According to a U.S. Army report dated May 25, 1945, a total of 238,980 prisoners had been held at Buchenwald in the period from July 1937 to April 1945. Of this number 34,375 died. This report, which shows a mortality rate of some 14 percent, was based on camp records confiscated by the U.S. Army. Shortly after the U.S. Army "liberated" Buchenwald, it was turned over to the Soviet Union and became the so-called Special Camp No. 2 from 1945 to 1950. As the guide book, written by Sabine and Harry Stein says, "Prisoners moved into the barracks again hardly four weeks after the last survivors had left the National Socialist concentration camp in Buchenwald. Buchenwald became a place of isolation and death for another four and a half years.... "Hunger and isolation seriously affected everyday life. Hunger was almost omnipresent. Mass deaths ensued when the restricted rations were cut temporarily. "More than one third of the total number of 122,671 prisoners died in the course of being there," the guide says about the post-war Soviet prison camp. "The victims of Buchenwald Special Camp were buried in mass graves. Their relatives did not receive any official notification. "The history of Special Camp No. 2 and the existence of mass graves was subject to taboo in the German Democratic Republic," the guide says. The official mortality rate in the Soviet camps during the post-war period was more than twice that of Buchenwald during the war. According to camp records kept by the Soviet Union, the Soviet prison camp system in Germany held 122,671 prisoners between 1945 and 1950 of which 42,889 died. This is a death rate of nearly 35 percent. In addition, 756 persons were executed. To understand what really happened in both of these places, I recommend reading my articles from Buchenwald and Dresden.
