The Mumbai Attacks and the Militaries of the USA, India and Pakistan

Taj, Mumbai, 2008

The CIA, and its friends, may have used Pakistani military officers in the November 2008 attack on Mumbai?

India claims that Pakistani officers have links to the Mumbai shootings.

Pakistani Army colonel 'was involved' in Mumbai terror attacks / Pakistani officers helped plan Mumbai attacks, says India

1. Why?

The Bombay attacks killed the police officers who had uncovered links between terrorists and elements of the Indian military!

"The Mumbai Anti Terrorism Squad chief Hemant Karkare and other officers of the Anti Terrorism Squad have been killed.

"These were the same people who were investigating the Malegaon Blasts – in which Praggya Singh, an (Indian) army officer and several other noted personalities of the (right-wing 'fascist') BJP-RSS-Bajrang Dal-VHP were arrested." - CIA ATTACKS BOMBAY? CIA WANTS INDIA TO HELP IN ATTACK ON PAKISTAN

On 8 November, 2008, the Maharashtra Anti Terror Squad revealed that Lt Colonel Srikant Purohit of the Indian military was involved in a blast that killed people in Malegaon in September 2007.

The Anti Terror Squad indicts Purohit for supplying the RDX used in the blasts. (ATS Investigations show Purohit procured RDX /Indian officer held over blasts )

The Anti Terror Squad has also found out that Purohit attended secret meetings of the 'fascist' Hindu group Abhinav Bharat.Now it is being reported that Lt Col Srikant Prasad Purohit, the Army officer arrested in the Malegaon case, was involved in other blasts as well. (More detained as Purohit probe spreads to blast in Nanded 2006 )


Patsy?

2. The CIA appears to have control over certain people within the Pakistan military?

According to the TIMES OF INDIA (9 10 01): In the summer of 2001, General Mahmoud Ahmad, chief of the US trained Pakistan intelligence service, arranged for $100,000 to be given to Mohammed Atta (alleged hijacker on 11 Sept).

General Mahmoud arrived in the USA on 4 September 2001 and, over the days that followed, had regular consultations with his counterparts at the CIA and Pentagon.

A CBS Report on US TV by Dan Rather and Barry Petersen, 28 Jan 2002, suggested that Osama bin Laden was in a Pakistani Military hospital in Rawalpindi on 10th September 2001, the day before the Attacks on America.The Pakistani military HQ in Rawalpindi is used by resident US military and intelligence advisers, who routinely report to Washington.Rawalpindi, Pakistan

Are top people in the Pakistan government involved with the CIA and Mossad?

3. In 2008, US national Ken Haywood, reportedly with the help of the US embassy, fled from India. (Cached)

He was being investigated for terrorism.

Ken Haywood's computer was used to send a "terrorist" e-mail minutes before bomb blasts in Ahmedabad, in July 2008.

Reportedly, Haywood has links to Abdur Subhan Qureshi, alias Taufique Bilal and Tauqir, reportedly the top terrorist in India.

Haywood returned to India in September 2008. (Ahmedabad blasts: Ken Haywood arrives in India 11 Sep 2008, 0215 hrs IST, C Unnikrishnan,TNN)

Photo of Bombay by Wen-Yan King

In India, Haywood works for a firm called Campbell White, suspected of being a front for the CIA.

Haywood doesn't feature on its list of employees. (Cached)

The Indian Express reported on 14 August 2008 that the company's Mumbai office 'is located in two small adjoining rented rooms on the ground floor of Sanpada railway station complex', and that 'the two rooms also serve as prayer rooms for Potter's House... part of the Christian Fellowship Ministries based in Arizona.'

A Post at 'Consortium of Indian Defence Websites' (Cached), 20 Aug 2008:

"Haywood's fleeing immediately after the cracking of the Gujarat blasts and capture of the perpetrators is most suspicious.

"His escape resembles that of our ex-R&AW traitor,who also escaped with alleged US help.

"It also indicates that we may have in our intelligence services moles/informants working for foreign agencies tipping off agents within the country.

"However,the fact the Haywood was working for a bogus 'missionary' outfit is doubly alarming.

"The role of US so-called missionaries/evangelical groups in India is very controversial,for they are playing a dual role in agressive conversions as well as being part of the CIA destabilisation plan for India.

"Tehelka a few years ago revealed the fact that over 100 US so-called "Christian" evangelical groups/organisations were in fact bogus and part of Bush's CIA network.

"The question that now looms large in the mind is what connection exits between the CIA and the SIMI (Students Islamic Movement of India - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) sponsored terrorists?

"Is SIMI actually a CIA operation?

"Does the Islamist terrror in India have a CIA-ISI background.

"Given the cosy relationship that the ISI and the CIA have had for decades and the termemndous importance and preferential treatment that Pak receives in comparison with India,it stands to reason that a sinister destabilisation operation is on to weaken India, especially at a time when we have the weakest ever puppet PM and his govt. in power."

4. Someone seems to be stirring up trouble in Pakistan.

5. Look at the map below:
The above map first appeared among American neoconservatives.

It was used in an article by Ralph Peters entitled "Blood Borders: How a Better Middle East Would Look," published in Armed Forces Journal.

A senior Pakistani government official has said that "One of the biggest fears of the Pakistani military planners is the collaboration between India and Afghanistan to destroy Pakistan. Some people feel the United States is colluding in this." (Redrawn map has Pakistan wary)

Some commentators suggest that the United States is financing militants in order to tie down the Pakistani army and leave the way open for an American advance into Pakistan.


On 3 December 2008, at Al Ahram Weekly, Abdus Sattar Ghazali wrote 'Behind the scenes' (Cached)

He tells us about the US-UK-Israel agenda for the Middle East and South Asia region.

Among the points made:

1. The Global Trends 2025 report by Thomas Fingar, US deputy director of national intelligence for analysis, suggests that Pakistan may become much smaller.

2. The New York Times reported on a "New Middle East" map published in 2006 by the US Air Force Journal along with an article by retired Lieutenant-Colonel Ralph Peters, entitled, "How a better Middle East would look?" The map and Peters suggested that a 'natural' Pakistan would be much smaller than today.

3. It can be argued that redrawing the map, from the Lebanon and Syria to Anatolia, Arabia, the Persian Gulf, the Iranian Plateau and South Asia is part of a longstanding Anglo-American and Israeli agenda.



4. "Constructive chaos" (violence and war) is the means to gradually achieve this objective.

5. There is a rapidly deteriorating situation in Pakistan's Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) in the wake of frequent US missile attacks and Pakistan's military operations.

The FATA region, along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, was peaceful before the US invasion of Afghanistan in 2001.

The commander of US forces in Afghanistan, General David McKiernan, was asked by a group of parliamentarians meeting with him at the residency of the US ambassador in Islamabad: Why did you Americans come to Afghanistan when it was so peaceful before you got there?

6. Some commentators suggest that the US is financing the Taliban. The point is to bog down the Pakistani army, they say, leaving the way open for the Americans to grab Pakistan's nuclear weapons.

Recently, in the officers' mess in Bajaur, the northern tribal region where the Pakistani army is stuck fighting militants, one officer offered his own theory: Osama bin Laden did not exist, he told a visiting journalist. Rather, he was a creation of the Americans, who needed an excuse to invade Afghanistan and encroach upon Pakistan.

Rivero's 10%

Mike Rivero of WRH


Mike Rivero has run What Really Happened.com since 1994. WRH began as a page on Mike Rivero's business website asking questions about the death of Vince Foster.

Does Mike Rivero miss out a lot of what is really happening?

Does he do his homework?

Is he sometimes too ready to accept the views of the main stream media?

Does he ever mention Dutroux or the CIA's attempt to topple various world leaders?


Does WRH tell us of CIA links to the toppling of Suharto?

Nobody writes of The Infectious Mindset and Rivero's 10%

Here are some extracts:

"Like I said in an earlier piece, WRH's world is finite. It has limitations.

"You can spend all the time you like there and will never encounter Dave McGowan nor any mention of the 'pedophocracy'.

"(For late arrivals, The Pedophocracy is a must-read. It can be found here).

"And sure, the pedophocracy is explicitly a phrase of McGowan's creation. But the word itself is neither here nor there. It's the concept that counts.

"Give it whatever name you like, as long as it describes a network of immensely powerful people who traffic in children, have a penchant for satanism, and are seemingly untouchable.

"In terms of this big picture, I haven't a shred of doubt. The pedophocracy exists, and it exists big time...


Does WRH tell us of Dutroux links to the USA?


"I wrote to Mike and set him straight on a key fact -

Hi Mike,

I hate to tell you this, but the tunnels under the McMartin school were found precisely as described. Google 'E Gary Stickel Phd McMartin tunnels'.

That should sort you out.

Stickel by the way is actually famous. He's the archeologist Spielberg went to when he needed a consultant for Raiders of the Lost Ark. He's the real deal. And he found the tunnels and said so.

The tunnels were there. And if the tunnels were there, the kids and the parents weren't bullshitting. The drunk you mention only got that way because no one would believe her. Can't say I blame her myself.

It wasn't a witch hunt mate. It was real...

"Mike's not a chatty fellow so I got no reply. Nor did my thing appear on his letters page...

"Go search WRH, see if you can find any mention of 'The Finders'.

"In spite of it being one of the biggest mindfucks ever, it doesn't exist on WRH. Just for the record, that's '0' results.

"Keep searching, look for 'Dutroux', look for 'West Point' or 'Presidio'..."

CAIRO BOMB; CIA & MOSSAD TRYING TO TOPPLE MUBARAK?

Pinhas Lavon and Golda Meir. The Lavon Affair was an Israeli covert operation in Egypt, known as Operation Susannah, in which Israeli military intelligence planted bombs in Egyptian, American and British-owned targets in Egypt in the summer of 1954 in the hopes that "the Muslim Brotherhood, the Communists, 'unspecified malcontents' or 'local nationalists'" would be blamed.[1] It became known as the Lavon Affair after the Israeli defense minister Pinhas Lavon, who was forced to resign because of the incident. Israel admitted responsibility in 2005 when Israeli President Moshe Katzav honored the nine Egyptian Jewish agents who were involved.[2]


1. There is a suspicion that the CIA and Mossad want to topple Egypt's President Mubarak.

A. Ian Bremmer, at Foreign Policy, 23 February 2009, writes that "Mubarak wants Obama to recognize that he will not play the role of America's obedient servant. When Washington applies pressure, Egypt can and will say no." (Mubarak flexes his muscles)

B. According to a recent U.S. National Intelligence Council report, "Mubarak is getting older and no longer has the energy to provide the leadership he once did," - US report: Saudis replacing Egypt as regional leader

C. Mubarak and Netanyahu do not like each other. (Egypt has bad memories of Netanyahu)

2. On 22 February 2009, in Cairo, a bomb exploded outside a mosque.

The blast ripped through a street lined with cafes and restaurants in Khan al-Khalili, a market that is one of Cairo's main tourist attractions.

"The blast killed a French teenager and wounded 25 people, most of them tourists." (Suspects detained in Cairo blast)

"Blood stained the stones in front of the mosque, where worshipers had been conducting evening prayers." (Cairo plaza struck by fatal blast)

According to Reuters, at least one device exploded after being thrown from a motorcycle. (Bomb detonated in crowded Cairo tourist area).

Earlier reports had said bombs were planted under a seat near a cafe just outside the al-Hussein Hotel.(Al Jazeera English - Middle East - Three arrested over Cairo bombing).

Egyptian state news agency MENA, quoting eyewitnesses, said the devices were thrown from the roof of a nearby hotel. (Two foreigners among four dead in Cairo bomb attack)

"We stood next to the bench where a bomb would explode 20 minutes later." - Eyewitness: Cairo blast

"I saw a beggar. ... The beggar was terribly injured and he had definitely died. I saw his body thrown [about 13 feet] into the air." EGYPT: Cairo bomb witness recalls terrifying scene

The attack was the first deadly violence against Westerners in Egypt since 2006. As yet there has been no claim of responsibility.

Terror attacks in the past have been the work of Mossad and its friends.

3. In the Lavon affair, 1954, Israeli agents planted bombs in several buildings in Egypt, and left evidence behind implicating Arabs as the culprits.

One of the bombs detonated prematurely. The Egyptians captured one of the bombers and rounded up the Israeli spy ring. (aangirfan: Dahab, King David, Lavon...)

4. According to one press report (Egypt blast fuels speculation):

On the streets around the site of Sunday’s attack ... many blamed Israel.

"I think Israel did it this time to harm the Egyptian tourism industry, which is like the blood that moves the country," said Mohsin al-Hindawi, 53, who sells traditional Egyptian robes to tourists.

"No Egyptian Muslim or Christian would do something like this in a sacred place like Hussein Square," he said.

"Mark my words, the Israelis are behind it. It takes a lot of dollars to carry out these attacks."
Mustafa al-Hinawi, the 45-year-old owner of a perfume shop nearby, agreed.


"Israel did this because they are passing through a phase of instability and they want to harm Egypt’s peace and security by hitting our tourism," he told dpa.







The March 2009 edition of National Geographic has an article about terrorism in Egypt.

Did the spooky people at National Geographic know in advance about the Cairo bombing?

The USA is not happy with Mubarak.

According to Joel Beinin ( It's the Empire, Stupid ), on 21 February 2008:

"In an uncharacteristically blunt criticism of the regime of President Husni Mubarak, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice testified before the House Foreign Affairs Committee on February 13 that, "we have not been satisfied with Egypt's efforts" to control smuggling of weapons into Gaza through the tunnels under the border.

"Voices in and around the Israeli government have been beating the drums for a full-fledged invasion and reoccupation of the Gaza Strip as the only solution to this and other security problems."Is the CIA going to use the Muslim Brotherhood to topple Mubarak? - Egypt's Opposition to Run in Elections

Sinai is part of Egypt. But Israel would like it to be part of Greater Israel.


Many tourists are now going to the Red Sea Riviera, in Egypt's Sinai.

The Sinai, which includes Sharm el Sheikh, is now Egypt's top tourism destination.

The problem is that the Bedouin, the largest group who live in the Sinai, have been treated badly by the Cairo government.

The Bedouin feel that Cairo has treated them in the same racist way that the Israelis have treated the Palestinians.

The Bedouin feel that their grazing grounds have been stolen to make way for hotels owned by people from Cairo.

The Bedouin have seen their camps and homes bulldozed by the rich guys from the capital.

And Israel may trick some of the Bedouin into involvement in acts of terrorism.

Israel would like the Sinai to become part of Greater Israel.





Matthew Teague, in the National Geographic, March 2009, National Geographic Magazine - NGM.com, reminds us that this area has seen several recent wars.

There were wars involving Israel and Egypt in 1956, 1967, and 1973.

Israel took over the Sinai in 1973, following the Six Day War.

Some of the Bedouin say they were treated better by the Israelis than by the folks from Cairo.

In 1979 Egypt and Israel signed a peace deal, and tourism was able to develop in the Sinai, to the advantage of the folks from Cairo and to the disadvantage of the Bedouin.

Reportedly, in 2002, a young dentist called Khalid Al Masaid formed Tawhid wa Jihad, Unity and Holy War.

Reportedly, in the spring of 2004, Iyad Salah, a follower of the dentist Al Masaid, had recruited a small group of conspirators.

In 2004 there were 'terrorist' attacks in TABA.

In 2005, there were 'terrorist' attacks in the area of Sharm el Sheikh.

In 2006, there were 'terrorist' attacks in the area of Dahab.

Greater Israel is to include the Sinai

Retired General Salah al-Din Salim, an Egyptian researcher at the Strategic Studies Institute in Cairo, said that it could not be ruled out that the Israeli Mossad was involved in the terror attack in Dahab.

"The Mossad's ability to penetrate the Bedouins in Sinai is known," Salim said in an interview with al-Jazeera. (Egyptian analyst: Can't rule out that Mossad was involved in ...)

Dr. Abdallah Al-Ash'al , former assistant to the Egyptian foreign minister and lecturer on international law at Cairo University , was quoted on the internet site http://www.islamonline.net/: "All of the signs indicate that Israeli hands were [behind the attacks]. The area is close to Israel, and Israel was the first to warn its citizens not to go to Sinai…" [5]

In the Egyptian Weekly Nahdat Misr, Dr. Abdallah Al-Ash'al said that Israel "is interested in embarrassing Egypt and in hurting Egyptian tourism, just as the Palestinian Intifada hurt Israeli tourism… It is in Israel's interest that there be an Egyptian response to what happened, since it wants Egypt to join the American campaign against terrorism… It is likely that Israel recruited some people in coordination with terrorist groups in order to hurt Egypt… Israel's goal in this operation was to bring terrorism back to Egypt…" [6]

General Fuad Allam , former deputy head of the Egyptian state security service , said to Nahdat Misr : "None of the suspects in these bombings – whether Egypt, Palestine, or Al-Qa'ida – have anything to gain [from carrying out the bombings], except for Israel. All of the evidence points to the conclusion that the Israeli Mossad is the first and last to gain from this operation… As for the Palestinian factions, no one suspects that they were involved in this incident – except for Israel, which accuses them – unless the Mossad got one of these factions involved [in carrying out the attacks]." [7]

Muhammad Abd Al-Fattah Omar , former assistant to the Egyptian interior minister , said to http://www.islamonline.net/: "For every action we need to search first for who stands to gain from it… Israel is the only one who benefits from these explosions. This is due to the fact that the only two [elements] that can enter the area with ease are the Israelis and their agents… The Israeli right was going through a crisis as a result of the American pressure on Sharon, after the veto that America cast [at the U.N.] to save Israel from the proposal to condemn it for the massacres it is conducting against the Palestinians in Gaza. [Israel] had no choice but to undertake an action that would ease the American pressure on the area and would put the ball in the Americans' court, at least until the elections…" [8]

Dr. Dhiaa Rashwan, from the Egyptian Al-Ahram newspaper's Center for Diplomatic and Strategic Studies , said: "The events in Sinai were not planned by Islamists, neither Egyptian nor Al-Qa'ida… The one who gained the most from this operation was Israel, and the one who was hurt most was Egypt. In Taba there is no population from which an Islamist movement could spring, it has only tourists and security forces, and thus there is no Islamist activity in this sensitive region. In addition, the intensive security presence prevents the importing of such huge quantities of explosives…

"This operation is the [work] of a security apparatus, or else was carried out in cooperation with a major security apparatus, and the one who gained the most was Israel, and thus one should attribute [the operation] to Israel. For the Israeli security [apparatuses] it is easy to carry out an operation on lands adjacent to its borders and then to retreat into Israel, whereas it would be difficult for it to carry out such a thing deep in Egyptian lands." [9]

The National Geographic appears to have become the mouthpiece of the CIA.

Just before 9 11, the National geographic was preparing maps and an article on Afghanistan.

If you want to know which countries the Pentagon is about to invade, look at the National Geographic.

The edition of the magazine, dated November 2004, has an article on the Geography of Terror. The article, written by Walter Laqueur who recently retired from the Kissinger Chair at the Centre for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, seems full of obvious disinformation.

The article refers to a number of countries:

Ireland – the article fails to mention US financing of terror groups, and the allegation that most of the worst incidents were the work of the UK security services.

Europe – the article fails to mention the CIA links to the terror which hit Italy in the 1980s. Remember the bombs in railway stations that ‘were the work of fascist groups with CIA connections’.

Indonesia – the article fails to mention (1) the CIA terror used to topple President Sukarno and then President Suharto (2) the US training of the generals who have been associated with terror in East Timor, the Spice Islands and elsewhere (3) the links between the US trained Indonesian military and ‘Moslem’ terror groups such as Laskar Jihad (4) the alleged involvement of the Indonesian military in the Bali bomb.

Palestine – the article does not make it clear that (1) the Palestinians were driven from their land by Jewish terrorist groups (2) the Israelis initially aided Hamas in order to weaken Arafat (3) the USA supports Israel in its occupation of Palestinian land and defiance of UN resolutions and in its possession of weapons of mass destruction.

Iraq – the article fails to mention the body of evidence that Saddam was a CIA agent and was put into power by the USA.

Al Qaeda – the article promotes the myth of al Qaeda. It fails to mention (1) the bin Laden links to the Bush family (2) bin Laden’s Jewish mother (3) bin Laden’s death in December 2001 (4) the controlled explosions that brought down the Twin Towers on 9 11 (5) the training of the alleged hijackers at US military bases.

The National Geographic is supposed to be about geography. But what do we get? We get endless stuff about:

Archaeology – particularly in the Mayan world.

History.

Biology – particularly fish and apes.

Astronomy

The articles are written in a strange style. The authors like to sound clever and literary but often they simply obscure the meaning of what they are trying to say.

The layout of text and photos also tries to be clever, but ends up being clumsy, like an american automobile.

Who advertises in the National Geographic? We get adverts for the sort of posh watches and posh cars which I could never afford.

The area is close to Israel, and Israel was the first to warn its citizens not to go to Sinai…" [5]

In the Egyptian Weekly Nahdat Misr, Dr. Abdallah Al-Ash'al said that Israel "is interested in embarrassing Egypt and in hurting Egyptian tourism, just as the Palestinian Intifada hurt Israeli tourism… It is in Israel's interest that there be an Egyptian response to what happened, since it wants Egypt to join the American campaign against terrorism… It is likely that Israel recruited some people in coordination with terrorist groups in order to hurt Egypt… Israel's goal in this operation was to bring terrorism back to Egypt…" [6]

General Fuad Allam , former deputy head of the Egyptian state security service , said to Nahdat Misr : "None of the suspects in these bombings – whether Egypt, Palestine, or Al-Qa'ida – have anything to gain [from carrying out the bombings], except for Israel. All of the evidence points to the conclusion that the Israeli Mossad is the first and last to gain from this operation… As for the Palestinian factions, no one suspects that they were involved in this incident – except for Israel, which accuses them – unless the Mossad got one of these factions involved [in carrying out the attacks]." [7]

Muhammad Abd Al-Fattah Omar , former assistant to the Egyptian interior minister , said to http://www.islamonline.net/: "For every action we need to search first for who stands to gain from it… Israel is the only one who benefits from these explosions. This is due to the fact that the only two [elements] that can enter the area with ease are the Israelis and their agents… The Israeli right was going through a crisis as a result of the American pressure on Sharon, after the veto that America cast [at the U.N.] to save Israel from the proposal to condemn it for the massacres it is conducting against the Palestinians in Gaza. [Israel] had no choice but to undertake an action that would ease the American pressure on the area and would put the ball in the Americans' court, at least until the elections…" [8]

Dr. Dhiaa Rashwan, from the Egyptian Al-Ahram newspaper's Center for Diplomatic and Strategic Studies , said: "The events in Sinai were not planned by Islamists, neither Egyptian nor Al-Qa'ida… The one who gained the most from this operation was Israel, and the one who was hurt most was Egypt. In Taba there is no population from which an Islamist movement could spring, it has only tourists and security forces, and thus there is no Islamist activity in this sensitive region. In addition, the intensive security presence prevents the importing of such huge quantities of explosives…

"This operation is the [work] of a security apparatus, or else was carried out in cooperation with a major security apparatus, and the one who gained the most was Israel, and thus one should attribute [the operation] to Israel. For the Israeli security [apparatuses] it is easy to carry out an operation on lands adjacent to its borders and then to retreat into Israel, whereas it would be difficult for it to carry out such a thing deep in Egyptian lands."

The National Geographic appears to have become the mouthpiece of the CIA.

Just before 9 11, the National geographic was preparing maps and an article on Afghanistan.

If you want to know which countries the Pentagon is about to invade, look at the National Geographic.

The edition of the magazine, dated November 2004, has an article on the Geography of Terror. The article, written by Walter Laqueur who recently retired from the Kissinger Chair at the Centre for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, seems full of obvious disinformation.

The article refers to a number of countries:

Ireland – the article fails to mention US financing of terror groups, and the allegation that most of the worst incidents were the work of the UK security services.

Europe – the article fails to mention the CIA links to the terror which hit Italy in the 1980s. Remember the bombs in railway stations that ‘were the work of fascist groups with CIA connections’.

Indonesia – the article fails to mention (1) the CIA terror used to topple President Sukarno and then President Suharto (2) the US training of the generals who have been associated with terror in East Timor, the Spice Islands and elsewhere (3) the links between the US trained Indonesian military and ‘Moslem’ terror groups such as Laskar Jihad (4) the alleged involvement of the Indonesian military in the Bali bomb.

Palestine – the article does not make it clear that (1) the Palestinians were driven from their land by Jewish terrorist groups (2) the Israelis initially aided Hamas in order to weaken Arafat (3) the USA supports Israel in its occupation of Palestinian land and defiance of UN resolutions and in its possession of weapons of mass destruction.

Iraq – the article fails to mention the body of evidence that Saddam was a CIA agent and was put into power by the USA.

Al Qaeda – the article promotes the myth of al Qaeda. It fails to mention (1) the bin Laden links to the Bush family (2) bin Laden’s Jewish mother (3) bin Laden’s death in December 2001 (4) the controlled explosions that brought down the Twin Towers on 9 11 (5) the training of the alleged hijackers at US military bases.

The National Geographic is supposed to be about geography. But what do we get? We get endless stuff about:

Archaeology – particularly in the Mayan world.

History.

Biology – particularly fish and apes.

Astronomy

The articles are written in a strange style. The authors like to sound clever and literary but often they simply obscure the meaning of what they are trying to say.

The layout of text and photos also tries to be clever, but ends up being clumsy, like an american automobile.

Who advertises in the National Geographic? We get adverts for the sort of posh watches and posh cars which I could never afford.

Slumdog Scandal

Mumbai kids

In Bombay, the poor people get exploited by the politicians and officials.

MUMBAI: "In this city, where over half of the 15 million-plus residents live in slums, an army of unscrupulous officials, slumlords and politicians is engaged full-time in the ‘business’ of taking possession of government land, extorting money and renting out illegal structures in slum enclaves." - Our officials run slum racket: BMC

Jewish Hollywood has been exploiting poor Bombay kids.

Rubina appears in Slumdog.

She was paid just £500 for a year's work.

Azharuddin appears in Slumdog.

He earned £1,700.

Azharuddin's father Mohammed Ismail said: 'There is none of the money left. It was all spent on medicines to help me fight tuberculosis.'

The family live in a plastic tent on a government park after their illegal hut was destroyed by the authorities.

But a spokesman for distributor Fox Searchlight, a film division of 20th Century Fox, said that the children earned three times more than the average annual salary of an adult in their neighbourhood. - Slumdog actors scandal


"Following their taste of glamour the youngsters will return to the homes where they live in squalor on the outskirts of Mumbai." - From rags to riches in just three days.

"The parents of 8 year-olds Rubina Ali and Azharuddin Ismail, who play young Latika and Salim in the film, respectively, and are both still living in Mumbai slums, have accused the film's producers of underpaying their children. (The families also appear to be in the direst of straits: Rubina's father broke his leg during filming and has been out of work since, and Azharuddin's father has TB.)" - Slumdog Exploitasian Scandal?

THE ECONOMY IS DOING PRETTY WELL


Haikou city, Hainan, China, by Anna Frodesiak

In China, the economy is doing pretty well.

A currency needs sound underpinnings, such as oil or large savings.

China has large savings; Norway and Scotland have oil.

Liam Halligan, at The Sunday Telegraph, 21 February 2009, tells us about China's economy. (Slim pickings if China loses its appetite for Western debt)

According to Halligan:

1. In China, retail sales are up 17% in real terms.

2. In China, GDP grew by a 'pretty spectacular' 6.8% during the fourth quarter of last year.

3. Chinese shares have gained 25% this year – the best return of any stock market in the world.

4. Optimism in China has been helped by the government's £405bn support package.

5. China is funding its stimulus package using reserves, not extra borrowing.

6. China's currency has appreciated more than 20% against the dollar since 2005.

The USA and most of Europe are not in such a strong position as China.

China has $700bn of US Treasury bills.

With Western governments 'intent on printing money and debauching their currencies', China, Russia, Taiwan, South Korea and others are 'privately raising doubts about their future appetite for Western debt.'

America hopes to sell more treasury bills - 'a staggering $2,000bn' of them.

(Clinton Urges China to Keep Buying US Debt)

Liam Halligan wonders what happens when China stops buying US government debt?

In continental Europe, the countries with the biggest problems include Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece, Spain and Austria.

Liam Halligan predicts 'the demise of the single currency.'

Secret Organisation


Greek riots by Master of Puppets

Former Italian president Cossiga has stated that secret spy organizations (Operation Gladio / the Stay-Behind networks) were formed in Europe after World War II.

"Cossiga said Winston Churchill ordered the finance minister to set up a secret organization that would not be like the usual intelligence service.

"The English Special Operation Executive (SOE) was ordered to infiltrate among Nazis...

"The stay-behind network was formed in Germany, France, Italy, Holland, Belgium, Norway, Greece and Turkey... Cossiga said similar organizations were established in non-NATO countries such as Austria, Sweden and Switzerland...

"Noting the organization in Italy was established in 1954, Cossiga said he was appointed as the deputy defense minister and also headed the fifth department, which was the special operations unit.

"'Only the prime minister, the minister of foreign affairs, the defense minister and the minister of domestic affairs knew about the organization.

"'We hid the organization's hierarchy chart in a safe. But as one of the founders, I knew everyone in the chart,' he said." - Former Italian President Cossiga says Turkish Gladio was unique

MOSSAD IN THE SINAI

Sinai is part of Egypt. But Israel would like it to be part of Greater Israel.


Many tourists are now going to the Red Sea Riviera, in Egypt's Sinai.

The Sinai, which includes Sharm el Sheikh, is now Egypt's top tourism destination.

The problem is that the Bedouin, the largest group who live in the Sinai, have been treated badly by the Cairo government.

The Bedouin feel that Cairo has treated them in the same racist way that the Israelis have treated the Palestinians.

The Bedouin feel that their grazing grounds have been stolen to make way for hotels owned by people from Cairo.

The Bedouin have seen their camps and homes bulldozed by the rich guys from the capital.

And Israel may trick some of the Bedouin into involvement in acts of terrorism.

Israel would like the Sinai to become part of Greater Israel.






Matthew Teague, in the National Geographic, March 2009, National Geographic Magazine - NGM.com, reminds us that this area has seen several recent wars.

There were wars involving Israel and Egypt in 1956, 1967, and 1973.

Israel took over the Sinai in 1973, following the Six Day War.

Some of the Bedouin say they were treated better by the Israelis than by the folks from Cairo.

In 1979 Egypt and Israel signed a peace deal, and tourism was able to develop in the Sinai, to the advantage of the folks from Cairo and to the disadvantage of the Bedouin.

Reportedly, in 2002, a young dentist called Khalid Al Masaid formed Tawhid wa Jihad, Unity and Holy War.

Reportedly, in the spring of 2004, Iyad Salah, a follower of the dentist Al Masaid, had recruited a small group of conspirators.

In 2004 there were 'terrorist' attacks in TABA.

In 2005, there were 'terrorist' attacks in the area of Sharm el Sheikh.

In 2006, there were 'terrorist' attacks in the area of Dahab.


Greater Israel is to include the Sinai

Retired General Salah al-Din Salim, an Egyptian researcher at the Strategic Studies Institute in Cairo, said that it could not be ruled out that the Israeli Mossad was involved in the terror attack in Dahab.

"The Mossad's ability to penetrate the Bedouins in Sinai is known," Salim said in an interview with al-Jazeera. (Egyptian analyst: Can't rule out that Mossad was involved in ...)

Dr. Abdallah Al-Ash'al , former assistant to the Egyptian foreign minister and lecturer on international law at Cairo University , was quoted on the internet site http://www.islamonline.net/: "All of the signs indicate that Israeli hands were [behind the attacks].

Who’s behind Madoff?

Forest Hills, New York. (Photo by Complicated )

What links might there be between Madoff and the Jewish Mafia and Forest Hills?

Wayne Madsen, at Online Journal, 19 Feb 2009, asked Who’s behind Madoff?

According to Wayne Madsen:

1. Part of Madoff’s Ponzi scheme was Madoff Energy LLC and a number of other energy groups.

There are links between these and Texas oil and natural gas industry interests, "some close to the Bushes and Dick Cheney."

2. Madoff’s Ponzi scheme was part of a larger operation.

Allegedly, this larger operation involved top people from the George W. Bush and Barack Obama administrations, as well as the Russian-Israeli Mafia.

3. One of the investors in Madoff’s scam was the Bank of New York (BONY).

4. BONY was the subject of a Wayne Madsen Report on the activities of the Russian-Israeli mob:

"Forest Hills has been identified by the FBI as a major center for both the Russian-Israeli Mafia and Mossad and it is a place where the two interests often cooperate.

OPERATION SPIDERWEB was a joint FBI-EUROPOL operation in 2002.

It led to the arrest of 20 Russian-Israeli dual citizens on charges of money laundering.

The laundering involved the Bank of New York (BONY) and other groups.

Marc Rich

The money-laundering network included a firm called Benex.

Benex is connected to 'Bill Clinton-pardoned Mossad figure' Marc Rich.

Benex’s office was in Forest Hills in the same building where Grigori Loutchansky had the HQs of two of his companies.

"Loutchansky is a Latvian-born Israeli who laundered billions through his Vienna-based NORDEX firm.

"National Security Agency (NSA) signals intercepts have reportedly yielded intelligence on Loutchansky’s role in the smuggling of nuclear materials.

"Loutchansky also was closely linked to Clinton’s 1996 re-election campaign through New York real estate magnate and Democratic donor Sam Dombs. . . .

Loutchansky

Forest Hills was also the hometown of international diamond dealer Yehuda Abraham.

Abraham was convicted in a plot to smuggle surface-to-air missile launchers from Russia into the United States, four months after 9/11.

"The network was discovered to have links with the Viktor Bout weapons smuggling network and money laundering facilities linked to 'Al Qaeda' Southeast Asia affiliate Jemaah Islamiyah.

"Abraham, an Afghan Jew, was linked not only to Mossad but to the Saudi Royal Family."

Yehuda Abraham

Obama’s attorney general, Eric Holder, was the Clinton administration’s deputy attorney general who approved the eleventh hour Clinton pardon for Rich.

5. Another Madoff investor was Mellon Financial Services. On July 8, 2008, WMR reported:

"A February 27, 2008, truck theft of backup data tapes from Bank of New York Mellon Corporation’s Jersey City Shareholder Services unit has the hallmarks of an organized crime heist.

"Shareholders of the Walt Disney Company, John Hancock Financial Services (a division of Manulife Financial Corporation), People’s United Bank of Connecticut, and the Bank of New York were informed that their stock sale transactions may have been compromised."

6. Obama’s Middle East envoy, George Mitchell, is a former chairman of the Board of the Walt Disney Company.

7. "WMR has learned from a U.S. intelligence source in the Middle East that much of the $50 billion scammed by Madoff is now in Israeli banks and other financial contrivances established to secretly launder the ill-gotten loot."

8. "The Madoff Ponzi scheme may also be linked to the revelations by former Liechtenstein LGT bank employee Heinrich Kieber of secret off-shore accounts held by tax-evading politicians and businessmen in the United States and other countries, as well as the Clearstream entity in Luxembourg that involved allegations of a slush fund used to finance the political ambitions of France’s neocon president, Nicolas Sarkozy, and other right-wing politicians."

9. "Harry Markopolos, a former investment manager-turned-investigator, recently told the US House Financial Services Subcommittee that the SEC failed to take action against Madoff when Markopolos repeatedly warned the regulatory agency of the Ponzi scheme activities of Madoff, a former chairman of NASDAQ.

"The hearing at which Markopolos testified was chaired by Rep. Gary Ackerman (D-NY), whose 5th congressional district adjoins the 9th congressional district of Forest Hills and Rego Park, a nexus for Russian-Israeli mob activity in the New York City area."

10. On February 9, the SEC announced that Linda Thomsen, the agency’s top enforcement official, was resigning to 'pursue opportunities in the private sector.'

Lockerbie Evidence


Robert Gates, (Lockerbie, October Surprise, Iran-Contra)

A. According to The Herald, 19 February 2009, the Crown is fighting to keep 48 pieces of Lockerbie trial evidence secret

"Prosecutors are trying to keep secret 48 pieces of evidence relating to the Lockerbie trial, including a secret fax that could discredit a key Crown witness.

"Lawyers for Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al Megrahi, the man convicted of the 1988 bombing, yesterday began a challenge over material they believe will free their terminally ill client.

"But the Crown Office and the UK Advocate General are fighting against disclosure."

B. Lockerbie witness ‘put up for reward’

Tony Gauci was a key Lockerbie witness.

According to The Herald, on 20 February 2009, previously undisclosed documents show that Scottish police recommended to US authorities that both the main witness in the Lockerbie trial (Gauci) and his brother should be paid up to $3m.


In 1988, the FBI's Robert Mueller (above) supervised the Lockerbie Bombing investigation.

"He successfully kept the CIA's connection to the bombing from becoming public.

"The CIA and FBI took control of the crash scene for the first day (keeping Scottish police at bay), searching through and removing numerous pieces of evidence and luggage from the wreckage to obscure the connections of the bombing to the CIA special team that was on board the aircraft.

"One CIA defector has said that the team had been returning to the states against orders to blow the whistle on CIA drug and terrorist connections in the Middle East." - FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION ·

Edward Bollier of MEBO

In the Lockerbie Bombing (PanAm 103) case, it appears that the CIA and its friends arranged to have a 'timer' stolen from the Swiss firm of MEBO.

It appears that the security services then pretended that this 'timer' was the one used in the Lockerbie Bombing.

The Herald letters column, 23 August 2008, has a letter about the PanAm 103 - Lockerbie Bombing entitled High Court decision rapid and welcome

The author of the letter writes:

"Probably the most crucial item of physical evidence, namely the timer fragment PT35B, was not even tested for explosive residues."

Some of the comments on the Herald website are as follows:

Posted by: Edwin & Mahnaz Bollier, MEBO, Zurich

"MEBO LTD and myself have obviously been misused by the Scottish Justice and Lord Advocate Colin Boyd to construct a wrong link from Lockerbie to Libya... More news on our webpage: http://www.lockerbie.ch/... (Homepage www.mebocom-defilee.ch & www.lockerbie.ch)

"Edwin and Mahnaz Bollier, MEBO Ltd. give the Crown, Lord Advocate General and the Appeal Court, the full warranty that the manipulated MST-13 timer fragment (PT-35B) does not come from a timer supplied to Libya and therefore cannot be brought in connection with Libya...

"Libya did pay the compensation under explicit objection that Libya had absolutely nothing to do with the PanAm 103 Lockerbie-Tragedy and could therefore not be made responsible. In the world media this objection is never mentioned.

"This tricky suppression of the whole statement by the world's leading news agencies leads to the generally accepted but nevertheless totally wrong notion: If they paid, they did it.

"Why Libya pays?: > Regain full diplomatic and economic status. This would allow oil companies to negotiate hundreds of billions of dollars worth of contracts, to drill the state's oilfields.

"US President Bush signed on August 4, 2008 into law: S.3370, the 'Libyan Claims Resolution Act.' The bill that grants Libyan immunity law and full diplomatic and economic status."

"Jeez Edwin & Mahnaz Bollier, you'll find few in Scotland that don't know that al Megrahi was just the fall guy (the main reason for the Yanks wanting him jailed was his expertise as Libya's No 1 sanction buster via Malta)."

Posted by: Peter Biddulph, Worcestershire, England

"Few folks will be aware of two important background features of the Lockerbie investigation and trial. Both are verified by historical and declassified documents and available for easy reference.

"1. The forensic scientist who claimed to be the first to find the famous bomb fragment was, a year after finding it, revealed by a Parliamentary investigation by Sir John May to be a co-conspirator with two colleagues in the with-holding of evidence in the trial of the alleged IRA Maguire Seven.

"The Maguires were released on appeal.

"This aspect was under-investigated by the Lockerbie trial defence, and ignored by the judges in the Lockerbie judgment.

"2. The career of the American agent in overall charge of the investigation includes several years involvement with the murderous Nicaraguan campaign, working alongside Colonel Oliver North in the Iran-Contra affair of the mid-eighties, and the covert arming of the Afghanistan Mujahadeen in the late eighties.

"The man was not called to give evidence at the Lockerbie trial.

"In an on-camera interview, he admitted that his name was on the original list of witnesses, but he presumed that the US authorities had removed it.

"We shall have to wait and see whether these two aspects will fully emerge during a second appeal.



Timer device

Two years after the Lockerbie bomb, investigators allegedly found a fragment of a timer device.

It has been alleged that the evidence concerning the timer fragment was fabricated by the CIA and its friends in order to implicate Libya in the bombing.

In the summer of 2007, a report from Darik Radio DARIK News revealed a confession:

"Ulrich Lumpert, a Swiss electronic engineer and former employee at the Zurich-based MEBO Ltd Telecommunication, has admitted that he stole from the company a hand manufactured MST-13 Timer PC-Board that was later used as evidence against the defendant, Libyan agent Abdel Basset al-Megrahi.

Lumpert says: "I realized that the MST-13 PC-board, after it was handed over by me without permission was misused for deliberate politically criminal 'action'." - Lockerbie Bombing Trial Faces U-Turn after Perjury Confession

Thomas Thurman

On 19 February 2006, The Mail on Sunday reported that new forensic tests have been carried out by the lawyers representing Al Megrahi, the Libyan jailed in connection with the Lockerbie bombing.

Defence experts simulated the Lockerbie explosion. The results showed that the device which detonated the bomb could not have survived the explosion.

According to The Mail on Sunday: "Sources close to Megrahi's lawyers said the new tests pointed to the evidence having been planted at the scene of the crash...

"The source added that Megrahi's legal team claimed they had obtained 'clear proof' that investigators had 'planted and manipulated' evidence...

"He said... if there is any justice in Scotland... certain Scottish police officers will be jailed for their part in the proceedings...

"Megrahi's lawyers already have a sworn statement from a retired Scottish police officer confirming that evidence had been planted to secure the Libyan's conviction.

"A similar claim was made by a former CIA agent...

"The ex-CIA man (claimed) that the fragment of circuit board had been planted under orders from a very high level in the organisation...

"The fragment was found by two policeman during a search of a wood near Newcastleton, 35 miles from Lockerbie.

"It was later identified by the CIA's Thomas Thurman as being part of a sophisticated timer device made by the Swiss firm of Mebo.

"Thurman was later unmasked as a fraud who had given false evidence in American murder trials..."


Orr

Who were the people involved in the Lockerbie investigation and trial?


John Orr, joint head of CID in Strathclyde police, was the chief investigating officer in the Lockerbie case. Sir John Orr got promoted to Chief Constable of Strathclyde Police (1995 to 2001). (The Herald : News: OTHER NEWS)


'The Golfer' is the former Scottish police chief who has given lawyers a signed statement claiming that key evidence in the Lockerbie bombing trial was fabricated. 'The retired officer - of assistant chief constable rank or higher - has testified that the CIA planted the tiny fragment of circuit board crucial in convicting a Libyan for the 1989 mass murder of 270 people.' (Scotsman.com News - Police chief- Lockerbie evidence was faked)

Two state prosecutors from the US Department of Justice played an important role in the Lockerbie trial. The United Nations observer at the Lockerbie trial, Dr Hans Kochler, reported that two state prosecutors from the US Department of Justice were in court, and, although not listed in any of the official documents about the Court's officers, they were constantly briefing Scottish prosecutors. ( UN Claims Lockerbie Trial Was Rigged)

Lord Fraser was the lord advocate (1989-92) who initiated the case against Megrahi. On 20 December 2006 Lord Fraser was detained by police after they were called to Dundee Airport following reports of a disturbance on board an aircraft. Lord Fraser was charged with disorderly conduct. It was announced on 2 February 2007 that the Crown Office had dropped these charges due to insufficient evidence that an offence had been committed.

Lord Hardie, as Lord Advocate 1997-2000, was due to lead the prosecution team in the Lockerbie trial. Lord Hardie resigned just before the Lockerbie trial began. There were rumours that there was a lack of evidence to convict the Libyans.

Colin Boyd was Lord Hardie's successor as Lord Advocate. He became Lord Boyd of Duncansby.

Norman McFadyen, then regional procurator-fiscal for Edinburgh, headed the Crown Office trial team at Camp Zeist in the Netherlands. He got promoted to Crown Agent, head of department for the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service.

Alan Turnbull, QC, was one of the two senior counsel leading the Crown team in the Lockerbie trial. In 2006, he became Scotland's youngest judge at the age of 47.

Advocate-depute Alastair Campbell, QC, was senior prosecution counsel in the Lockerbie trial. In 2003, he was appointed a judge and became Lord Bracadale.

Bill Taylor, QC, was defence counsel for Megrahi at Camp Zeist. He has been heavily criticised for failing to defend Megrahi successfully. ( We have removed an error here pointed out to us by The Lockerbie Case )

Alistair Duff was the defence lawyer for Megrahi.

Professor Hans Koechler, the United Nations' observer at the Lockerbie trial and appeal, has accused Mr Taylor and Mr Duff of betraying Megrahi by failing to represent him properly.

Eddie MacKechnie was solicitor to Fhimah who was acquitted.

Tony Gauci was the key crown witness and owner of the Maltese shop where Megrahi was said to have bought the clothing reportedly placed around the bomb.

At the trial, Tony Gauci was uncertain about the date he sold the clothes in question, and was not sure that it was Megrahi to whom they were sold.

Gauci gave two earlier statements in which he identified convicted Egyptian terrorist Abu Talb as the person who bought clothing.

Gauci gave earlier statements saying he did not sell a shirt to the man but six months later remembered selling shirts and the man. Two of Gauci's statements are missing.

A babygro said to have been wrapped around the bomb and shown to the court blown to pieces was recovered intact, according to a statement from the woman who found it.

Five years after the trial, Lord Fraser allegedly described Gauci as a “simple” man who might have been “easily led”. Lord Fraser was the lord advocate (1989-92) who initiated the case against Megrahi.

The Strathclyde police reportedly arranged for Gauci to go fishing, hillwalking and birdwatching in the Scottish Highlands. The Mail on Sunday newspaper said Gauci had been recorded on tape talking about five or six visits he had made to Scotland since 1988. Four members of Gauci's family are also said to have received some form of police hospitality during the investigation. (The Scotsman - Scotland - Lockerbie trial row over witness’s trip)

J Thomas Thurman was the FBI man who identified a fragment of a circuit board from a timing device which, he said, was from the Lockerbie bomb. Thurman was later removed from his FBI job after a US Department of Justice investigation concluded his FBI forensics lab had a record of fabricating evidence.

Edwin Bollier is head of the Swiss-based Mebo group which was supposed to have sold the timing device reportedly used in the Lockerbie bomb. Bollier claims that one of his employees supplied the Scottish police with a stolen timing device, which was then presented in the trial as having been found amidst the plane's wreckage.

The other two judges were Lord Coulsfield and Lord MacLean.

Lord Cullen was head of the five-judge panel which presided over the appeal of Megrahi at Camp Zeist in 2002. The other four judges were: Lord Kirkwood, Lord Osborne, Lord Macfadyen, and Lord Nimmo Smith.

The past and future may be happening now; every possible 'Now'.


Reportedly, humans are descended from reptiles or something about as primitive.

We spent the longest period of our air breathing time as something reptilian-like.

But, don't worry. Time may not work in a straight line.

Maybe we can skip about from one bit of time to another, if we are sufficiently enlightened.

Einstein, Schrödinger and others have taught us that Time is not what Newton imagined.

For some cultures, time is a circle.

"The Hindu concept of reincarnation is perhaps the most familiar example, but the Hopi in the American Southwest and the Inuit in the Arctic also look at the world as a series of repeating cycles with no beginning or end; so, traditionally, did the Chinese and Japanese cultures." - The Riddle of Time - TIME

Some people suggest that events tend to repeat themselves in cycles but the events never play out in exactly the same way.

Barbour

Some people suggest that the past, the present and the future may all be happening at the same time.

Prof Carlo Rovelli, of the University of Marseille, reports in Physical Review D that he has formulated a theory in which Time is simply a distance between events.

Julian Barbour in his The End of Time argues that quantum equations of the universe take their true form when expressed in the timeless configuration spacerealm containing every possible "Now" or momentary configuration of the universe, which he terms 'platonia'.[33]

Imagine parallel universes, and every possible 'now'.



"Every 'moment' we experience is real, he says, but these moments exist only for that brief instant, during which time literally stands still.

"The passage of time is as illusory as the sense of movement created by the succession of still frames in a motion picture." - No Time Like The Present - TIME

"This was a period of rampant financial criminality during which many Russian mineral assets came under the control of the so-called Jewish oligarchs who became instant billionaires...

JURY IN RETRIAL IS DISMISSED


1. You may remember the liquid bomb plot which led to a trial.

On 8 September 2008, the jury did not find any of the defendants guilty of conspiring to target aircraft.

There was a retrial.

On 18 February 2009, it was announced that the jury in the trial of the eight men accused of conspiring to murder by blowing up transatlantic airliners has been discharged for "legal reasons".

It is not yet known why the judge, Mr Justice Henriques, took his decision to discharge the jury.

'Bomb plot' case jury dismissed

Presumably there was a risk that the jury would find the 8 men not guilty.

2. In Ireland, on 10 February 2009, 60-year-old Anthony John Hill appeared in the High Court.

He was wanted in the UK on a charge of perverting the course of justice during the trial of men linked to 7 July 2005 London bomb attacks.

Hill, orginally from Sheffield, was arrested on a warrant issued by the authorities in Britain.

It is alleged he sent DVDs entitled "7/7 Ripple Effect" to the jury, the judge and members of the victims' families.

3. In the present liquid bomb plot trial, seven of the men are undergoing a retrial. One is facing charges for the first time. The original trial failed to get the verdict the government wanted.



Photo of Bernard Lewis by the Office of Communications, Princeton University.

Bernard Lewis
is Jewish and has worked in British intelligence. (Bernard Lewis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia )

In 1990, Lewis wrote an essay entitled The Roots of Muslim Rage.

In this essay, Lewis argued that the struggle between the West and Islam was gathering strength.

In this essay Lewis coined the phrase "clash of civilizations", which got mentioned in the book by Samuel Huntington.[13]

Typical Moslems - friendly, easy going and hospitable.

The phrase "clash of civilizations", was first used by Lewis at a meeting in Washington in 1957 where it is recorded in the transcript. [14]

There has been speculation that Lewis, the intelligence services and people like Brzezinski want to make the Moslem world look bad, so that it can be more easily controlled.

Much of the world's oil lies in Moslem lands.

How do you make Moslems look bad?

You can finance the extremists and help them into power. You can carry out false flag operations.




The transatlantic liquid bomb plot, in 2006, may be part of the effort to discredit Moslems.

Lieutenant-Colonel (ret.) Nigel Wylde, a former senior British Army Intelligence Officer with decades of anti-terror and explosives experience, declared the plot to be 'fiction'.

He said the explosives in question could not possibly have been produced on the plane.

He suggested that the plot was an invention of the UK security services in order to justify wide-ranging new security measures that threaten to permanently curtail civil liberties and to suspend sections of the United Kingdom's Human Rights Act of 1998.(The Raw Story: August terror plot is a 'fiction ...)


Real Moslems just want to have fun.

Key questions remain unanswered in the UK liquid bomb trial

What happened in court, back in September 2008?

Mohammed Gulzar, was found not guilty on all charges.

The jury failed to reach any verdict on the four remaining defendants – Arafat Waheed Khan, Ibrahim Savant, Waheed Zaman and Umar Islam.

Abdulla Ahmed Ali, 27, Assad Sarwar, 28, and Tanvir Hussain, 27, claimed they were merely planning a non-lethal explosion in London as a publicity stunt to draw attention to a supposed documentary they were preparing on the plight of Muslims in Afghanistan and Iraq.

The jury did not find these three guilty of tring to blow up aircraft.

However, the jury found these three guilty of planning a lethal explosion in London.

Rashid Rauf works for the security services?

The alleged ringleader of the alleged plot to blow up multiple transatlantic airliners using liquid explosives is Rashid Rauf.

The BBC reported in December 2006 as follows

"A Pakistani judge has ruled there is not enough evidence to try a key suspect in an alleged airline bomb plot on terrorism charges.

"He has moved the case of Rashid Rauf, a Briton, from an anti-terrorism court to a regular court, where he faces lesser charges such as forgery...

"An anti-terrorism court in Rawalpindi found no evidence that he had been involved in terrorist activities or that he belonged to a terrorist organisation."

Rashid Rauf is reportedly involved with the Lashkar-e-Toiba group which reportedly is linked to the Pakistan secret service ISI which reportedly works with the CIA and British intelligence.

Reportedly the alleged terrorist cell that planned to blow up ten planes included at least one person working for the British security services. (Alleged Liquid Bomb Plot Credibility Crumbles)

Former British Ambassador to Uzbekistan Craig Murray slammed the so-called foiled plot story as "propaganda"

"None of the alleged terrorists had made a bomb. None had bought a plane ticket. Many did not even have passports, which given the efficiency of the UK Passport Agency would mean they couldn't be a plane bomber for quite some time," said Murray.

BLAIR, JOWELL, MILLS, BERLUSCONI, THE MAFIA

Jowell, UK government minister in charge of the London Olympics. Does she have links to the Mafia?


On 17 February 2009, UK government minister Tessa Jowell's husband David Mills was sentenced to four and a half years jail in Italy for corruption.

Mills was also fined €250,000 by a court in Milan for taking a bribe from Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi to give false evidence in two corruption trials.

Prosecutors said Mills used the money on a joint mortgage with Tessa Jowell to obtain a property in north London.

Mills is unlikely to go to jail as the case will go before two appeal courts and that has to be before February 2010, otherwise it passes the deadline for Italy's Statute of Limitations.

Berlusconi will escape because a law was passed in 2008 which made senior government figures immune from prosecution.

Jowell's husband gets jail term for corruption


Mills

1. David Mills set up a company whose directors included Mr Dell'Utri who acted 'as the intermediary between Silvio Berlusconi's political party and the mafia'.

Mr Dell'Utri's 'mafia links began in his youth', a Palermo court heard, 'and in 1993 he met with the the mafia's governing Cupola to successfully solicit its vote-gathering powers on behalf of Mr Berlusconi'.

Source: Mills linked to mafia go-between


Berlusconi is alleged to have links to the Mafia, and to Tony Blair.

2. Did Blair's government try to protect Mills?

"Italian prosecution documents seen by The Times allege that the Home Office blatantly jeopardised an investigation designed to bring Mr Mills to trial.

"The prosecutors claimed that the Home Office had harmed their inquiry and a move to extradite Mr Mills, by revealing 'extremely sensitive information' to the Berlusconi Government — the targets of the probe.

"Simultaneously, the Serious Fraud Office suddenly stopped dealing directly with the prosecutors in Milan."

Source: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2-2064363,00.html

3. David Mills is the brother-in-law of Barbara Mills, formerly director of the Serious Fraud Office and formerly Director of Public Prosecutions.

Barbara Mills

4. In 2003, it was revealed that David Mills was involved in a project to sell jet aircraft to Iran.

Source: http://observer.guardian.co.uk/politics/story/0,,1723902,00.html

In the summer of 2002 Mills talked to Baroness Symons, then a Foreign Office minister, about his interests in Iran.

According to The Observer:

He was trying to broker a $200m deal to sell aircraft to Iran but the problem was that the US had strict sanctions prohibiting this. Mills explained the difficulty to his wife's colleague.

Symons asked him to drop her a letter - a copy of which was leaked last January and revealed how Symons had given him advice on proceeding with the deal.

The Observer has now obtained the original letter which Mills wrote to Symons on 9 July 2002, 10 days after the Oxford dinner.

Mills wrote: 'Dear Liz... I am sure HMG [government] will wish to offer such support as it can to smooth the path with our American friends...

'The ministerial code states that ministers must declare to their permanent secretary the financial interests of their spouses if they could appear to be a potential conflict of interest.

At the time Mills, who had travelled to Tehran, confirmed that he had discussed his Iranian work with Jowell, so she was aware of it.

When contacted by The Observer in May 2003 about the original potentially sanctions-busting deal, Mills initially claimed that Jowell's permanent secretary had been informed, but he later admitted that this was not the case.


5. In 1996, Mills set up banking arrangements to handle payments in a GBP 300 million military contract for the Ukraine to sell 320 tanks to Pakistan.

It was in the early 1980s, that Mills was put in charge of creating a complex web of offshore companies on behalf of Italian prime minister Berlusconi.


These companies were in tax havens such as Panama. Berlusconi, allegedly used these companies to evade tax, bribe judges and make illegal payments to footballers.

Source Daily Mail 23 Feb 2006 http://www.tmcnet.com/usubmit/2006/02/23/1402656.htm

6. Back on 29 July 1999, Express Newspapers related:"THE husband of Health Minister Tessa Jowell is to be questioned by Scotland Yard as part of an investigation into a shipment of blood infected with the deadly HIV virus...

"Italian magistrates are investigating a London-based company which was behind the planned shipment of 25 tons of blood plasma worth up to £2million from a port in Italy.

"In another episode Mr Mills was caught up in a nuclear waste controversy. A company he had formed for clients was named in a Greenpeace report into toxic waste dumping at sea."

http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a37a01b047c58.htm

Mills name was also linked to an alleged fraud involving Hydrofoils .

Blair

7. After Blair won the 1997 general election, he made Jowell his public health minister.

According to The Observer ( How the lawyer's pub deal brewed a storm of trouble ) :

At the time Jowell was involved in discussions with the drinks industry about a range of issues from relaxing drinking regulations to alcopops. She was also working on a white paper about the future of tobacco use that would see the government back away from banning smoking in pubs...

Documents obtained by The Observer reveal that on 8 February 1998, Mills used a company based in the British Virgin Islands to buy 90,895 shares in a little-known firm called the Old Monk Company...

The Old Monk Company is involved with pubs and drink.

Mills pumped £80,000 into the company...

Reportedly the shares were sold, on 3 September 1999, for £147,977.

Assuming the detailed evidence collected by the Italian prosecutor is accurate, this suggests that in a space of just 18 months while his wife was public health minister, Mills had turned a profit of £67,000 - a return of more than 80 per cent...

Opponents are likely to seize on this as an apparent conflict of interest that should have been declared.


The Observer article continues:

Within 18 months the Labour Party would be trying to secure votes at the 2001 General Election by sending out text messages to students saying: 'Cdnt give a XXXX 4 lst ordrs? Then vote Labour for extra time.' After Labour was returned to power, Jowell was promoted to Culture Secretary with the job of driving through the new drinking laws.

8. Jowell is to face questions over how she secured crucial Italian support for the 2012 London Games.

According to the Independent newspaper, sources from various cities in the 2012 bid said that powerful International Olympic Committee (IOC) member Mario Pescante, who as Italian Sports Minister was answerable to Berlusconi, became a surprise convert to London after initially backing it’s main rival Paris. The source said, “we were astounded and perplexed by his support for London. There was a belief that Berlusconi would virtually order Mr. Pescante to back London”.

Source: Support For London 2012 Bid May Have Been Influenced

Politicians and spies often work with the Mafia.

9. The father of David Mills was a top spy.

According to The Independent:

http://news.independent.co.uk/people/profiles/article347577.ece

"At the end of the war, Kenneth Mills was running MI5's operations from Gibraltar. Later, he was transferred to Jamaica and - according to a family legend - personally foiled an attempted revolution in Cuba. Its leader, Fidel Castro, survived to try again."

David Mills is the brother-in-law of Barbara Mills, formerly director of the Serious Fraud Office and formerly Director of Public Prosecutions.

Barbara Mills is married to John Mills, a leading Camden councillor and a business tycoon. David Mills and Tessa Jowell are also former Camden councillors.

David Mills has dined at Chequers. He has also played golf frequently with Alastair Campbell. He has dined with Elisabeth Murdoch. Peter Mandelson and David Blunkett have been guests at his second home, in Gloucestershire.



One of Labour's election promises was to end tobacco sponsorship of sport.

In November 1997, it emerged that the British Government was trying to protect Formula 1 racing from an EU-wide ban. Mr Mills was both legal adviser to and a former director of Benetton Formula 1. His wife, as Minister for Public Health, was responsible for government policy on smoking.

It emerged that the Formula 1 boss Bernie Ecclestone had secretly donated £1m to Labour funds.

Italian prosecutors began searching for the money trails leading to and from Silvio Berlusconi.

Mills gave evidence at Berlusconi's two trials, in 1997 and 1998.


10. Reportedly, Mills is linked to a corrupt land deal involving a convicted criminal.

The following is extracted from The Guardian 6 February 2006

http://politics.guardian.co.uk/labour/story/0,,1724362,00.html

Mr Mills was linked to a corrupt land deal involving the convicted criminal whom he now insists was the source of the £350,000 payment at the heart of many of the couple's problems.

Italian prosecutors are reported to have discovered that Mr Mills was the administrator of a company registered in the Isle of Man that bought into the deal in the port of Salerno in 1992.

The chief beneficiary, Diego Attanasio, was jailed for bribing officials to ensure the deal went through, and is now appealing against his sentence.

This would mean, according to Mr Mills' current account of his affairs and according to Ms Jowell's statement last week to Sir Gus O'Donnell, the cabinet secretary, that their London home was paid for, in part, by a convicted criminal.

Berlusconi and Blair

11. The following is extracted from
http://news.ft.com/cms/s/39c4cd3c-a963-11da-a64b-0000779e2340.html

March 2 2006

In Milan yesterday, people close to the investigation spoke to the Financial Times.

They confirmed that they were investigating whether Mr Mills received up to $1m from Mr Berlusconi, a bigger sum than reported previously, in return for favourable testimony that he gave during corruption hearings against the Italian prime minister.

According to the prosecutors, who have used analysis conducted by KPMG, the audit firm, about $1m of the $2m transferred on the orders of the Bahamas group was used on business dealings with Diego Attanasio, a shipping magnate.

Of the rest, $600,000 was cycled through financial and legal groups in Gibraltar and Switzerland before being invested in various places including two hedge funds, Giano Capital and Torrey Global Offshore.

The remaining $400,000, they said, was diverted to bank accounts controlled by Mr Mills and still under investigation...

12. Italian officials say Culture Secretary Tessa Jowells' husband David Mills, 61, was paid to give false evidence in court for Italian premier Silvio Berlusconi. Mr Mills denies that. He admits writing a letter to his accountants where he appears to be describing a payment, but claims he was inventing a scenario to get tax advice.

Source: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/4757248.stm

Giuffre

13. Antonino Giuffre was a senior mafia boss in Italy. He became a supergrass.

In January 2003, Giuffre told a court that Marcello Dell'Utri, a close aide to Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, promised to help the mafia in return for electoral support for Berlusconi's party, Forza Italia.

Source: Guardian Unlimited Special reports Berlusconi aide 'struck ...

Reportedly the mafia helped Forza Italia in March 1992 when it ordered the murder of Salvo Lima, a Sicilian Christian Democrat.

Mr Giuffre said the mafia had been in contact with members of Mr Berlusconi's Fininvest company.The Mafia received assurances that Berlusconi's party would rein in the police, soften jail conditions for mafiosi and change laws.

14. Tony Blair is a close friend of Berlusconi and has stayed with him on holiday in Italy.

Tessa Jowell was one of Blair's top ministers. Her husband, David Mills, has worked closely with Berlusconi.

15. TIMELINE

1994 Investigators start to look at offshore businesses belonging to Berlusconi.

1996 The UK Serious Fraud Office stages a raid on an office that is connected with Mills over the activities of Berlusconi’s companies.

1997 Mills allegedly misleads an Italian court trying Berlusconi.

1998 The lawyer allegedly makes a false declaration during a second hearing.

1999 A £350,000 “gift” is placed for Mills in an offshore hedge fund.

2000 Mills and Jowell take out a mortgage of £450,000.2000 The £350,000 “gift” is brought onshore in order to repay the mortgage.

2004 Mills tells his accountants that the gift has come from “the B people”.

2004 Mills tells Italian prosecutors that the money was from Berlusconi, but later retracts this.

2006 Mills’s home and office are raided by British police at the request of Italians.

1. According to Free Thinker "Michael Russell: Infitrated the SNP in '74 at the start of the oil boom...

"First Minister and SNP leader Alex Salmond has just promoted Michael Russell into 'his office' taking over constitutional affairs.

"Seems Mr. Salmond is thinking more about his garden up the road and may be preparing to exit stage left under some manufactured event.

"This promotion of Mr. Russell is the reward for giving Scotland's forests away to dubious un-named 'private' interests...

2. Mike Russell was elected as an SNP (Scottish National Party) Member of the Scottish Parliament for the South of Scotland in May 2007.

He has freemason connections.

He told the Sunday Herald: "I felt it was best to declare membership of the Freemasons."

THE ANSWER TO THE ECONOMIC PROBLEM


In shopping malls in Indonesia, just over 70% 0f visitors don't actually buy anything.

(Culture Shock Jakarta by Derek Bacon and Terry Collins - 2007)

The majority of the population of Indonesia earn very little.

The elite are fabulously rich.

It's not so different from the USA and parts of Europe.

In Indonesia the military is all powerful, and it is they who keep down wages and who preserve the feudal system.

In the USA, it is the Pentagon and the CIA who pull the strings and who make sure that the ordinary citizens work hard for relatively low wages.

If wages rise, the shopping malls sell more goods and the factories prosper.

Indonesia, like the USA and EU, has a large internal market.

So, the recipe for improving the economy is:

1. Close down the military.

2. Raise the minimum wage.

3. Make sure the rich pay their taxes.

4. Spend more on infrastructure.



Video: Rich and Poor in Indonesia

On 29 January 2009, we read An anatomy of Asian economic woes: Troubled tigers; from The Economist

In Asia wage incomes have fallen relative to GDP.

In China the share of wages dropped from 53% in 1998 to 40% in 2007.

According to The Economist, "a raft of government policies will have to change to lift households’ share of national income."

In Asia, a lack of free medical care and lack of free schooling means that people have to save a high proportion of their income.

"Higher public spending on health, education and welfare support could encourage households to save less and spend more."

In the USA, the same applies.

"The recent news that China plans to spend 850 billion yuan ($125 billion) over the next three years to provide basic health care for at least 90% of the population by 2011 is therefore welcome."


Bush and Blair brought poverty to their own countries.

And to the world.

The secret policy of certain western governments is:

1. Help the super-rich to get richer.

2. Keep down the wages of the poor.

THE USA

With George W Bush as president, the number of Americans living in severe poverty has increased dramatically.

Nearly 16 million Americans now live on an individual income of less than $5,000 (£2,500) a year or a family income of less than $10,000 (£5,000). (news.independent.co.uk)

The number of Americans living in extreme poverty has grown by 26% since 2000.

In the USA, poverty as a whole has worsened and the number of severe poor is growing 56% faster than the overall segment of the population characterised as poor - about 37 million people. (news.independent.co.uk)

BRITAIN

According to the Joseph Rowntree Foundation ( Wealth inequality 'at 40-year high' ) :

1. Britain is becoming a segregated society.

2. The gap between rich and poor has reached its highest level for more than 40 years.

3. During the past 15 years there has been an increase in the number of households living below the poverty line.

4. Households below the poverty line now account for more than half of all families in parts of some cities.

5. In parts of some cities more than half of all households are now "breadline poor" - enough to live on but no access to opportunities enjoyed by the rest of society.

6. Households in already wealthy areas have tended to become disproportionately wealthier.

7. Many rich people now live in areas segregated from the rest of society.

In the Calton district of Glasgow, male life expectancy is 53.9 years, almost ten years fewer than in Bangladesh.

However, life in Bangladesh can be worse than in Britain.

BANGLADESH

Large western companies like Tesco like to get cheap clothing from Bangladesh.

Tesco's chief executive Terry Leahy is a special adviser to the British government on business matters.

The Guardian (High price paid for cheap UK clothes ) explained on 15 July 2007:

1. Workers at factories supplying clothes to Asda (Walmart), Tesco and Primark told the Guardian that they were paid well below the £22 a month considered by experts to be the minimum living wage.

2. Mahbubur, 20, a machine operator, earns £16 a month, but he said apprentices or helpers in his factory earn only £9. His basic hours are 8am to 8pm, six days a week, but overtime, sometimes through the night, is compulsory.

What are we to think of Tesco, Walmart and similar companies?

Paul Collins, of War on Want, said: "These companies are driving down prices and pushing up profits and their workers are paying the real price in terrible pay and conditions." ( Brown is urged to act over 4p-an-hour sweatshop pay )


HAITI

The following comes from Babylon :

"Wal-Mart?"

"Most baseballs are made in Haiti by American companies. The factory girls get about $1.40 a day. They get injured arms and eyes."

"Is it only baseballs?"

"The Americans control the bauxite, sugar and sisal. It's like Cuba before Castro."

"Is it always slave wages?"

"You know Walt Disney?"

"Fun people."

"They have contractors here who make Micky Mouse clothes. The factory girls get 8 pence an hour. You can't live on that. Then Wal-mart sells the Pocahontas pyjamas for $11-97."

"The Americans supported Baby Doc? But didn't he get thrown out?"

"And replaced by military dictatorship," said Jean, smiling.

"What about the radical priest Aristide? Didn't he win an election?"

"Very popular man among the poor! But 9 months after he came to power he was toppled."

"By whom?"

"The army chief, Cedras, took over. These generals had been trained in the USA and were in the pay of the CIA."

"Then later Aristide was allowed back into Haiti."

"Yes. But FRAPH, a group financed by the CIA, started a lot of violence to destabilise Aristide."

"FRAPH?"

"They were mainly made up of Tonton Macoutes. The Macoutes have always given Aristide a hard time. In 1988 Macoutes hacked to death scores of people in a church, while trying to kill Aristide."

"And the Macoutes have ensured that there is chaos in Haiti. What are the Americans up to?"

"The super rich, of whom there are many in Haiti, want a return to dictatorship. That might suit the fascists who run America. A socialist priest might try to make Walt Disney's people pay higher wages."

"Don't the Americans care about poverty?"

"Did the Americans care about the children they murdered in Indo China? America is run by billionaire fascists pretending to be Christians and democrats. The Haitian death squads in 1991, after Aristide had been kicked out, were led by Toto Constant. Now Constant, who lives in New York, claims he worked for the CIA."

Egypt, Gaza and the Muslim Brotherhood.

Mubarak of Egypt.

There is a suspicion that the Muslim Brotherhood, and its offshoots such as Hamas and Hezbollah, work to the advantage of Israel and its friends.

It has been reported that the CIA and MI6 have used the Muslim Brotherhood to weaken countries such as Egypt, Syria, and Iran. (aangirfan: The Shah of Iran was toppled by the CIA and MI6?)

Abdel-Moneim Said, on 12 February 2009, at Al-Ahram Weekly, wrote Illusions of the phoenix.

He argues that throughout the recent crisis in Gaza, the Muslim Brotherhood "failed to pay even lip service to Egyptian national interests."

Among the points made:

1. Egypt tried to maintain the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.

Egypt warned Hamas not to resume the firing of missiles.

Hamas wrongly believed that any invasion would last no more than 3 days.

2. There has been a well orchestrated propaganda campaign against Egypt.

It began when the Iranian "masses" attacked the Egyptian Embassy in Tehran.

Anti-Egyptian slogans were shouted in Damascus, Beirut and other capitals.

3. The Rafah border crossing between Egypt and Gaza is of key importance.

"Egypt sustained the movement of food and medicine across that border, sometimes with Israel's cooperation but more often in defiance of Israel.

"Yet Hamas kept up its attack on Egypt.

"It staged a mass breakthrough into Egyptian territory, it boycotted the signing of a reconciliation agreement with Fatah and then started a war that could not have been more poorly planned and timed, coming when the Palestinian rift was at its most fraught."

4. During the Israeli attack, Egypt was the only country to:

1. actively campaign for a ceasefire.

2. furnish aid to the Palestinians.

3. push for the passage and subsequent implementation of a Security Council resolution and ceasefire.

4. prepare for the reconstruction of Gaza.

"Other Arab and Muslim governments did nothing beyond staging demonstrations and issuing anti-Egyptian statements."

5. How did the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood react to all this?

They joined anti-Egyptian demonstrators.

The Brotherhood did not call upon Tehran to launch any of its long-range missiles during the battle.

Nor did it urge Syria or Hizbullah to open a second front, even though portions of their territory remain occupied.

Nor did it suggest that Turkey sever diplomatic relations with Israel and stop sending it spare parts for its war planes.

Who won the war in Gaza?

Livni the terrorist

Mamdouh El-Adl, at Al-Ahram Weekly, 12 - 18 February 2009, asks Who won the war?

Mamdouh El-Adl is a consultant psychiatrist in the UK.

Among the points made:

1. Hamas, was established in 1987 and is related to the Muslim Brotherhood.

Hamas runs social programmes and gained popularity by establishing hospitals, education systems, libraries and other services.

2. Israel planned the war on Gaza with four main goals:

1. To end Hamas control.

2. To lift the morale of the Israeli army defeated in the 2006 Lebanon War.

3. Help people like Livni win the Israeli elections.

4. To prepare the stage for the removal of more Palestinians from their land.

3. Israel made the mistake of not following the basic rules of psychological warfare such as:

A. Trying to defeat the enemy without engaging in direct combat.

B. Learning from past experience, such as the loss of public support during the Lebanon conflict.

"It was a huge blow to Israel when public opinion internationally saw the huge damage and civilian casualties caused."

Israel secured a major moral defeat.

4. "Israeli stated aims changed over the time, from ending Hamas, to weakening Hamas, to stopping rockets, to reducing rocket numbers."

Photo of Alastair Crooke by Osama Al Eryani (www.shababyemeni.com/en/index.php?option=com.)

Reportedly, Alastair Crooke has worked for MI6.

Reportedly he was sacked from MI6 for not being a Zionist.

According to the Financial Times , 2 january 2009, (FT.com / Weekend /Middleman in the Middle East):

"In August 2002, perhaps because Crooke was seen as too sympathetic to Palestinian groups, the Israeli newspaper Ma’ariv outed him as an MI6 agent, poking fun at how slight this real-life James Bond was compared with his fictional counterpart.

"In 2003, after another ceasefire collapsed, Crooke was recalled to London. In a typically English fudge, he was given a CMG in the 2004 New Year’s Honours List for services to “the advancement of the Middle East peace process” – and sacked from MI6."



Crooke talks about Hamas, Moslems and Palestine.


Crooke has been asked about al Qaeda, but seemingly he is not prepared to spill the beans about any connection it may have to MI6.

"Could he imagine negotiating with al-Qaeda, I wondered? 'Never say never,' he replied, though he couldn’t really see the point. Groups such as al-Qaeda only get a hearing, he said, because of the failure of more mainstream political Islamism to speak to the Muslim world." (Middleman in the Middle East)

Crooke worked with bin Laden's men in Afghanistan.

Crooke gives us some clues about whether or not MI6 helped put the Ayatollahs into power in Iran.

"He views the 1979 Iranian revolution as progressive and enthusiastically explained obscure theological differences between its main Islamic protagonists.

"In the past two years he has visited Iran regularly – at one point he said 'our view', before correcting himself: 'the Iranian view, I mean'." (Middleman in the Middle East)

What is Alastair Crooke doing now?

"Crooke went freelance, drawing on his intelligence and political contacts to set up Conflicts Forum, a think-tank whose aim is to help western governments understand Islamist groups and their military resistance to Israel.

"In 2005 he moved to Beirut, where he lives with his partner, Aisling Byrne, an Englishwoman who previously worked with Palestinian refugees."

Has he really left MI6?

Alastair Crooke has written (2004 Guardian) :

"The overwhelming bulk of Islamists and Muslims support elections, good governance and freedom (more so than in some European states, the polls show)...

"Muslim values do not pose a threat to the strategic values of western society. Muslims do not hate our values. They hate our policies. We need dialogue at all levels."

We should be kind to monkeys, and not carry out cruel experiments on them.

And we should not carry out torture experiments on human children.

Reportedly, there is little difference between monkeys and children.

US government MKULTRA 'torture' experiment.

It is the US government that apparently leads the way in carrying out cruel experiments on animals and people.


(Human medical experimentation in the United States.)

Christina DeNicola stated that, in Tucson, Ariz., from 1966 to 1976, "Dr. B" performed mind control experiments using drugs, post-hypnotic injection and drama, and irradiation experiments on her neck, throat, chest and uterus.

She was only four years old when the experiments started.

Claudia Mullen gave testimony that Dr. Sidney Gottlieb (of MKULTRA fame) used chemicals, radiation, hypnosis, drugs, isolation in tubs of water, sleep deprivation, electric shock, brainwashing and emotional, sexual and verbal abuse as part of mind control experiments that had the ultimate objective of turning her, who was only a child at the time, into the "perfect spy."

She told the advisory committee that researchers justified this abuse by telling her that she was serving her country "in their bold effort to fight Communism."


US government MKULTRA experiment

Suzanne Starr stated that "a physician, who was retired from the military, got children from the mountains of Colorado for experiments."

She said she was one of those children and that she was the victim of experiments involving environmental deprivation to the point of forced psychosis, spin programming, injections, rape and frequent electroshock and mind control sessions.

"I have fought self-destructive programmed messages to kill myself, and I know what a programmed message is, and I don’t act on them," she tells the advisory committee of the experiments' long-lasting effects, even in her adulthood (Goliszek).

President Clinton publicly apologized to the thousands of people who were victims of MKULTRA and other mind-control experimental programs (Sharav).

Kropotkin

Survival depends upon cooperation.

"Kropotkin conceived a novel idea; the driver of evolutionary advance was not so much competition within a species for limited resources;


"it was through cooperation within a species to maximize survival against harsh external conditions." Common Ground - Sept 2005 - Cooperation as an evolutionary force

In 'The politics of animal cooperation' Thomas Jay Oord (June 1, 2003) wrote:

In contemporary science, biologist Alan Dugatkin’s work in animal cooperation validates Kropotkin’s words.

Dugatkin’s book Cooperation Among Animals: An Evolutionary Perspective offers numerous examples of friendship among nonhumans.

The social activities of birds, for instance, illustrate the great degree of cooperation found in the nonhuman world. Birds ...provide information to one another about where food can be found...

Perhaps the clearest example of friendship among animals is the mutual grooming that occurs in many species.

As early as the 1930s, primatologists documented the mutual benefits that grooming affords nonhuman primates.

Recent studies have shown that primates enjoy numerous benefits from cooperative grooming.

The practice removes parasites, reduces emotional tension, fosters relational bonds, and can be a commodity to exchange for other benefits...

The social sciences provide plenty of evidence to support Ralph Waldo Emerson’s claim that a human friend “may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.” http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=competition+cooperation+animals&hl=en&start=60&sa=N


There should be no more cruel experiments on animals or children.

FAKE

11-year-old Herman Rosenblat was held by the Nazis in Schlieben.

A young girl arrived daily at the camp fence to give him apples and bread.

Rosenblat was due to die in the gas chambers at Theresienstadt at 10am on 10 May 1945.

Two hours before the appointed time, the camp was liberated by allied forces.

The Rosenblats appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show.

In December 2008, The Times reported the story was fake. (Herman Rosenblat's Holocaust memoir of love is exposed as a hoax.)

On 15 February 2009, The Observer reports (When one life story is not enough):

"The story of a young girl throwing him apples was a fabrication.

"His 'angel at the fence' was a fake..."

There were no gas chambers at Theresienstadt

"In his story, Herman had claimed that Roma and her family, whose surname was Radzicki, were Polish Jews living under assumed identities on a nearby farm. There was no trace of them...

Tunisia and child sacrifice

Tunisia is full of history.

The Carthaginian Empire

If you go on holiday to Tunisia, it is worth learning a little bit about the Carthiginians, a people who allegedly went in for child sacrifice.

Tunisia was once ruled by the Carthaginians, who are thought to have come originally from the Lebanon area.

The Carthaginians are said to have come originaly from Phoenicia, also known as Canaan, where Lebanon is today.

In Sousse, Carthaginian crematoria contain the ashes of hundreds of 'murdered' children.

Archeological Museum, Sousse / Sousse Museum

Allegedly, these children were strangled in sacrifice to the gods in times of national or personal misfortune.

Carthage was criticized by its neighbors for child sacrifice.

Plutarch (c. 46–120) mentions the practice. The Hebrews mention the practise.

Both the Romans and the Hebrews saw the Phoenicians as enemies and so they cannot necessarily be trusted in this matter. It was King Herod "The Great Child Killer" who destroyed all the first born.

The killing of children was common in ancient Greece and Rome but for economic rather than religious reasons. (Life in Carthage by Gilbert and Colette Charels-Picard pp149-50)



This building in Monastir was one of the filming locations for Monty Python's Life Of Brian.

It has been argued that the reports of Carthaginian child sacrifice were Roman inventions, used to justify the Roman destruction of Carthage.

These Carthaginian cemeteries may have been used as graves for stillborn infants or children who died very early.

Modern archeological excavations have been interpreted by some as confirming Plutarch's reports of Carthaginian child sacrifice. (Kelly A. MacFarlane, University of Alberta, Hittites and Phoenician)

In a single child cemetery called the Tophet, an estimated 20,000 urns were deposited between 400 BC and 200 BC, with the practice continuing until the early years of the Christian period.

The urns contained the charred bones of babies and 2-year-olds.

But most the child urns found in Carthage contain bones of fetuses, therefore of still born babies.

These remains have been interpreted by some to mean that after the birth of stillborn babies, the parents would sacrifice their youngest child.

In bad times (war, poor harvests) cremations became more frequent.

Bad times might have inspired the Carthaginians to obtain divine intervention via child sacrifice.

Or bad times may simply have increased child deaths from natural causes.


Roman amphitheatre at El Djem, by Kaptain Kobold

Professor Piero Bartoloni, Head of the Department of Phoenician-Punic Archaeology at Universita' di Sassari, Italy, relates: "In ancient times, for every ten children that were born, seven died within the first year and out of the remained three, only one became an adult. Now I ask: is it reasonable that, with such a high level of infant mortality, these people killed their own children?"

According to those who criticised the Phoenicians, children were sacrificed to the god Baal Hammon and the godess Tanit.

According to the critics:

Carthaginians began to buy children for the purpose of sacrifice or even to raise servant children instead of offering up their own.

However, in times of crisis or calamity, like war, drought or famine, their priests demanded the flower of their youth.

Special ceremonies during extreme crisis saw up to 200 children of the most affluent and powerful families slain and tossed into the burning pyre.

The few Carthaginian texts which have survived make absolutely no mention of child sacrifice, though most of them relate to matters entirely unrelated to religion, such as the practice of agriculture.

In 146 B.C., Rome wiped the Carthaginian capital off the map.

Saudi Arabia - You are next?

Abdullah of Saudi Arabia.

The Obama regime's spy boss, the notorious Admiral Blair, has given us some clues about which countries may be dismembered by the USA in the coming months and years.

1. On 12 February 2009, Admiral Blair told Congress that bin Laden could relocate.

"For example, he said, al-Qaeda elements in Yemen now pose a new threat to Saudi Arabia, whose own efforts have been successful in killing or capturing most al-Qaeda senior leaders in that country."

2. "In February of 1975 the London Sunday Times revealed information from a leaked and classified US Department of Defense plan.

"The plan, drawn up by the Pentagon, was code named 'Dhahran Option Four' and provided for an invasion of the world's largest oil reserves, namely Saudi Arabia." - (Who Really Wants to Invade Saudi Arabia, and Why?) - Who can Saudi Arabia trust?

MUMBAI AND DAWOOD

Dawood Ibrahim, who is reported to have links to the CIA.

According to Rehman Malik, Pakistan's top interior ministry official, funds for the Mumbai attack were transferred from Italy and Spain.

Austrian SIM cards were used for some of the mobile phones used by the terrorists.

Detectives have also uncovered a link to Houston, Texas. (12 February 2009: Pakistan admits Mumbai attacks planned inside its borders)

Reportedly, a Pakistan government report was leaked to local television networks in Pakistan.

According to the television networks, the government report says that investigators have concluded that the attacks were planned in a European country and Dubai over the Internet, and that the planners used Bangladesh for logistical support. (Leaked Report Points to Larger Pakistani Role in Mumbai Attacks)

A news story in the Observer tells us about Dawood Ibrahim, who has links to Dubai, and reportedly, to the CIA and its friends. (http://observer.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,6903,1411796,00.html)

Iqbal Mirchi lives in Hornchurch, in England.

Iqbal Mirchi is wanted by police in India for murder and his part in a terrorist bombing campaign.

He is allegedly among the top 50 global drug barons; according to the US authorities he is the right-hand man of Dawood Ibrahim, head of the 'D' company, a worldwide mafia.

Bombs in Mumbai in 1993 killed over 300 people. Mirchi's name was linked to the bombings.

According to Mirchi: 'a senior police officer told me that my name would be attached to false charges unless I paid millions of rupees in bribes. I refused and moved to Dubai. '

Mirchi admits having met Dawood Ibrahim in Dubai.


Dubai posted to Flickr by Paul Keller at http://flickr.com/photos/18259771@N00/307513676.

Dawood has been described as 'the most dangerous man in the world'. As well as drugs and terrorism, the D company is involved in gold smuggling, gambling, counterfeit currency, diamond trading, contract killing, extortion and film financing. It is said to have a 60 per cent stake in the Bollywood film industry.

Dawood is also known to have met Osama Bin Laden and, in the aftermath of 9/11, allowed his smuggling network to be used to enable senior al-Qaeda operatives to flee Afghanistan.

According to South Asia tribune, "The UAE is regarded as the hub of the Dawood syndicate — its operations in Dubai, for instance, have been well-entrenched for over a decade."

http://www.satribune.com/archives/nov16_22_03/P1_dawood.htm

"There are those in Pakistani intelligence who ... point out that not a single member of the D-Company has been nabbed in recent years in connection with any plot against the US..."

The South Asia Tribune also told us (http://www.satribune.com/archives/apr4_10_04/P1_arun.htm) :

"Iqbal Seth alias Amir Sahib is living in style in the Pakistani capital city of Islamabad... Yes! Iqbal Seth alias Amir Sahib is the mythical Dawood Ibrahim, the Indian Osama bin Laden, wanted desperately by New Delhi.

"Ibrahim, now Iqbal Seth, has already established links in Nepal with the help of the Pakistani intelligence agency, ISI, and has appointed one Sartaj Ahmed as his front man. Sartaj was allegedly seen recently with a Pakistani Embassy official near Tundi Khel in Kathmandu...

Dawood Ibrahim 'has also established criminal links in Nepal with the help of the ISI. Hence, the ISI has opened a new front against India.'

"Indian officials say Dawood Ibrahim’s contacts in ISI include Major Khaliq and Major Akbar under whose patronage he had been staying in Karachi carrying a Pakistani passport with the name of Sheikh Dawood Hasan...

Nepal is where alleged Mumbai gunman Kasab is reported to have been detained by the Indian authorities in 2006. Dawood Ibrahim and the CIA are reported to be in business together in Nepal.

"Dawood Ibrahim is a regular visitor to Nepal. He was last seen in Kathmandu in the last week of August 2003. Officials told the South Asia Tribune that during that visit, Dawood met his front man Sartaj Ahmed and leaders of some fundamentalist organizations.

"Though Dawood has restricted his international movements, his front man Sartaj is in constant touch with officials of the Pakistani Embassy. He was recently spotted near Tundi Khel playground in Kathmandu with a Pakistani diplomat...

"Dawood has big financial stakes in Nepal. He has made huge investments in a variety of business ventures, from media, private airlines, hotels, travel agencies to trans-border smuggling including that of gold.

A Pakistani lawyer C M Farooque claims that alleged Mumbai gunman Ajmal Kasab, and almost 200 other people, were arrested by the Indian and Nepalese authorities in Nepal before 2006.

Pakistan News Service - PakTribune

Farooque said that at a press conference in Nepal he had revealed that the Nepalese forces had held Ajmal Kasab and the others at an unknown place and that these people "would be used for their ulterior designs at some later stage".

Reidel

1. Bruce Reidel is considered to be the man behind Barack Obama's Hawkish views on Pakistan

Reidel, a former CIA officer and adviser to three US presidents on South Asia and the Middle East, has been appointed by Obama as his Pakistan adviser. Mumbai attacks may sharpen Obama's Kashmir focus

Reidal may be giving us some clues about possible CIA involvement in the November 2008 Mumbai attacks:

"This is a new, horrific milestone in the global jihad," said Bruce Riedel, a former South Asia analyst for the CIA and National Security Council and author of the book "The Search for Al Qaeda."

3. The Bombay attacks reportedly killed the people who had uncovered links between the terrorists and elements of the Indian military.

"The Mumbai Anti Terrorism Squad chief Hemant Karkare and other officers of the Anti Terrorism Squad have been killed.

"These were the same people who were investigating the Malegaon Blasts – in which Praggya Singh, an (Indian) army officer and several other noted personalities of the (right-wing 'fascist') BJP-RSS-Bajrang Dal-VHP were arrested." - CIA ATTACKS BOMBAY? CIA WANTS INDIA TO HELP IN ATTACK ON PAKISTAN.



Singh

Lt Colonel Srikant Purohit, from Indian military intelligence, was reportedly involved in several blasts.

When bombs go off in India there is a tendency to blame Moslems.

However, the evidence points to the terror being the work of people within the Indian military, the Hindu fascist movement, and the CIA and its friends.

The September 2006 Malegaon bombings were a series of bomb blasts that took place in Malegaon, a town in the Indian state of Maharashtra, some 290 km to the northeast of Mumbai.

The explosions killed at least 37 people.

According to Maharashtra Police, in November 2006, the blasts were the work of the Student Islamic Movement of India.[1]

However, on 8 November, 2008, the Maharashtra Anti Terror Squad revealed that Lt Colonel Srikant Purohit of the Indian military was involved in a blast that killed people in Malegaon in September 2007.

The Anti Terror Squad indicts Purohit for supplying the RDX used in the blasts. (ATS Investigations show Purohit procured RDX /Indian officer held over blasts )

The Anti Terror Squad has also found out that Purohit attended secret meetings of the 'fascist' Hindu group Abhinav Bharat.

Now it is being reported that Lt Col Srikant Prasad Purohit, the Army officer arrested in the Malegaon case, was involved in other blasts as well. (More detained as Purohit probe spreads to blast in Nanded 2006 )

In 2008, US national Ken Haywood, reportedly with the help of the US embassy, fled from India. (Cached)

He was being investigated for terrorism.

Ken Haywood's computer was used to send a "terrorist" e-mail minutes before bomb blasts in Ahmedabad, in July 2008.

Reportedly, Haywood has links to Abdur Subhan Qureshi, alias Taufique Bilal and Tauqir, reportedly the top terrorist in India.

Duplex in Wadala

A Post at 'Consortium of Indian Defence Websites' (Cached), 20 Aug 2008:

"Haywood's fleeing immediately after the cracking of the Gujarat blasts and capture of the perpetrators is most suspicious.

"His escape resembles that of our ex-R&AW traitor,who also escaped with alleged US help.

"It also indicates that we may have in our intelligence services moles/informants working for foreign agencies tipping off agents within the country.

"However,the fact the Haywood was working for a bogus 'missionary' outfit is doubly alarming.

"The role of US so-called missionaries/evangelical groups in India is very controversial,for they are playing a dual role in agressive conversions as well as being part of the CIA destabilisation plan for India.

"Tehelka a few years ago revealed the fact that over 100 US so-called "Christian" evangelical groups/organisations were in fact bogus and part of Bush's CIA network.

"The question that now looms large in the mind is what connection exits between the CIA and the SIMI (Students Islamic Movement of India - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) sponsored terrorists?

"Is SIMI actually a CIA operation?

"Does the Islamist terrror in India have a CIA-ISI background.

"Given the cosy relationship that the ISI and the CIA have had for decades and the termemndous importance and preferential treatment that Pak receives in comparison with India,it stands to reason that a sinister destabilisation operation is on to weaken India, especially at a time when we have the weakest ever puppet PM and his govt. in power."

2. The involvement of the Chief minister of Gujarat (Modi) is revealed.

3. The complicity of the police is revealed.

4. The connivance of the judiciary is revealed.

Frontline India ( Action replay) commented:

"Yet, no action has followed one of the most explosive news investigations in India.

"None of those caught on tape boasting about raping, burning and hacking Muslims have been arrested or even interrogated.

"Modi’s authority has not been questioned.

"Instead, there is an eerie silence. Far more eerie than the cold-blooded murders of more than 1,000 innocent people during the communal massacres of March 2002.

"The role of the Modi government in the State-sponsored terrorism of 2002 is well documented. Even the Supreme Court had censured Modi for being 'a modern day Nero who watched while Gujarat burned'.

"Now, the Tehelka tapes offer irrefutable proof of how the Sangh (Hindu nationalists) organised a 'Hindu jihad' across Gujarat and protected the murderers."

British, German and Belgian Genocides

Von Trotha

The British, the Germans and Belgians are among those who have carried out genocides - as bad as anything carried out by the Israelis.


On 7 February 2009, Sean Thomas, in The Mail, wrote about Germany's genocide inside Africa's 'Forbidden Zone'

Among the points made:

1. In the early 20th Century, the Germans wanted to grab Namibia's diamonds.

Between 1904 and 1907, the Germans killed off many of the local population.

2. Shark Island, off the coast of Namibia, became an extermination camp where the native population could be disposed of.


3. There was massive genocide in Sperrgebiet, in diamond-rich south-west Namibia.

German imperialist Lieutenant General Lothar von Trotha was in charge of the killing.

The Kaiser's instructions were to 'emulate the Huns' in savagery.

In 1907, Von Trotha decided to exterminate the entire Herero people.

Herero

Guards were stationed at waterholes so the people couldn't drink; many wells were deliberately poisoned.

Hundreds of people died of thirst.

"Children went mad among the corpses of their parents; the buzzing of the flies was deafening. Paralysed people were eaten alive by leopards and jackals."

Some women and children were shot.

The official German Imperial report stated: 'The death rattle of the dying and the furious screams of madness . . . faded away in the sublime silence of infinitude.'

Historians estimate that 60,000 died.

The German official in charge of Namibian government during this time was Heinrich Goering - the father of Hitler's Reichsmarshall.

The Hereros filed a lawsuit in the United States in 2001 demanding reparations from the German government and Deutsche Bank, which financed the German government and companies in Southern Africa.[25][17]


1857 Indian Mutiny

Randeep Ramesh, in The Guardian, on 24 August 2007, wrote about how the British allegedly killed almost 10 million people in one particular act of genocide.

India's secret history: 'A holocaust, one where millions disappeared.

Among the points made:

1. In 1857 the Indian Mutiny took place.

2. In War of Civilisations: India AD 1857, Amaresh Misra argues that almost 10 million Indians died between 1857 and 1867, largely as a result of the policies of the British.

Misra talks about the destruction of entire populations in towns and villages.

3. British labour force records show a drop in manpower of between a fifth and a third across vast parts of India.

One British official records states “on account of the undisputed display of British power, necessary during those terrible and wretched days - millions of wretches seemed to have died.”

Famine in Madras 1876. The British did not look after the Indians t00 well.


4. Shabi Ahmad, head of the 1857 project at the Indian Council of Historical Research. “It could have been migration rather than murder that depopulated areas.”

British historian, Saul David, author of The Indian Mutiny, said of Misra's figures: “It looks like an overestimate. There were definitely famines that cost millions of lives, which were exacerbated by British ruthlessness. You don’t need these figures or talk of holocausts to hammer imperialism. It has a pretty bad track record.”

5. Misra’s book claims the fighting stretched across India.

Misra claims that the uprisings did not die out until years after the original mutiny.

Leopold II

Leopold II (1835 – 1909)) was King of the Belgians, and a first cousin of Queen Victoria.

Leopold II was reported to be a client of Mary Jeffries's "Rose Cottage" flagellation house and brothel in Hampstead, London.[1]

(The Belgian monarchy was reportedly linked to the Dutroux scandal and other scandals - BBC News EUROPE Belgian king wins paedophile rebuttal / Chateau des Amerois - Mother of Darkness Castle )

Victim of the Belgians

Leopold II was the founder and sole owner of the Congo Free State, now known as the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

One white officer described a raid to punish a Congolese village that had protested against Belgian actions. The white officer in command: "ordered us to cut off the heads of the men and hang them on the village palisades, also their sexual members, and to hang the women and the children on the palisade in the form of a cross." (Mass crimes against humanity in the Congo Free State)


Victims of the Belgians

As the BBC points out, the Congolese learnt from the Belgians.

"Congo's soldiers have never moved away from the role allocated to them by Leopold - as a force to coerce, torment and rape an unarmed civilian population." - (BBC NEWS Africa King Leopold's legacy of DR Congo violence)

According to Wikipedia, "The extraction of rubber and ivory in the Congo relied on forced labour and resulted in the massacre and mutilation of millions of Congolese (roughly half the population at the time).

"He ran the Congo as his personal fiefdom; for him it was a business venture...

"As Adam Hochschild describes in King Leopold's Ghost, France, Germany and Portugal were quick to adopt the Congolese methods in those parts of their colonies where natural rubber occured, imposing a similar death toll on the natives." (Leopold II of Belgium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Jews Everywhere

Kim Howells, son of a communist, former local representative of the Communist Party of Great Britain, friend of Israel and chair of the Britain's Intelligence and Security Committee.

How does Israel manage to control the leaders of the USA and Europe?

L.G. Pine, the Editor of Burke's Peerage, wrote:

Jews "have made themselves so closely connected with the British peerage that the two classes are unlikely to suffer loss which is not mutual.

"So closely linked are the Jews and the lords that a blow against the Jews in this country would not be possible without injuring the aristocracy also."


(Tales of the British Aristocracy 1957, p.219. Churchill and the Jews)

There is a belief that the many of the top people in the USA and Russia are linked to 'friends of Israel'.

"The fact is that Yeltsin was a hired tool whose job it was to turn Russia's wealth over to the same cartel of Jewish racketeers who controlled Clinton." (Digg - Former Russian President Boris Yeltsin dies)

South Africa's deputy foreign minister, Fatima Hajaig, allegedly told a political rally that Jews "control America, no matter which government comes into power... Their control of America, just like the control of most western countries, is in the hands of Jewish money." ('Jewish money' controls U.S.: African diplomat The Agonist)

David cameron, a Zionist and the Leader of the UK Conservative Party

Redress Information & Analysis, on 9 February 2009, wrote about Israel’s agents of influence in Britain

Among the points made:

1. The Arab world is a major source of oil for the US and UK.

It is a huge market for American and British goods.

2. Israel has very little in the way of important resources.

Israel is a tiny market for US and UK exports, having a population of only six million.

Israel's hi-tech industry is there by the grace of US production licences.

3. Israel's nuclear weapons cannot give it real control of its neighbours. Its nuclear weapons will simply encourage its neighbours to get nuclear, biological or chemical weapons.





4. So, why do the US and UK support Israel?

Israeli agents have infiltrated the British and US governments.

As Stuart Littlewood points out:

The corridors of power at Westminster are swarming with Israel supporters.

5. Who controls Britain's security services?

Britain's Intelligence and Security Committee has oversight of MI5, MI6, and GCHQ.

The Israel lobby now dominates this committee.

Kim Howells, a one-time chairman of Labour Friends of Israel, has become the chair of the Intelligence and Security Committee.

The nine members of the committee are:

* Dr Kim Howells MP (Chair)
* Michael Ancram MP
* Sir Alan Beith MP
* Mr Ben Chapman MP
* Lord Foulkes of Cumnock
* George Howarth MP
* Michael Mates MP
* Richard Ottaway MP
* Ms Dari Taylor MP

Sir Alan Beith presides over the Liberal Democrat Friends of Israel.

6. Some agents of Israel enter the British civil service.

In the 1960s, civil servant Mike Michaels facilitated British nuclear sales to Israel without ministers’ consent.

Not so cool facts


Geert Wilders
, who is a Dutch politician, and possibly a CIA-Mossad asset, believes that he has Jewish ancestry.[6]

The Dutch newspaper Telegraaf reported in May 2007 that Geert Wilders had been accompanied by the Dutch General Intelligence and Security Service for years.

During that time, Wilders had been regularly meeting officials at the Israeli Embassy in The Hague.[12]

"Already there are signs that the Far Right is gaining in confidence; for example the recent electoral gains made by the Austrian Freedom Party and the growing support for xenophobic Dutch politician Geert Wilders." - the Great Depression

'I don't hate Muslims. I hate Islam,' says Holland's rising star, Geert Wilders, who may be a CIA-Mossad asset?.

"The US State Department has been anxious to cram Britain into a European Superstate.

"In fact it's often been suggested that the CIA has been involved in various backstairs pro-EU campaigns in the past." - Down with the Special Relationship



Auschwitz

Treblinka II was a German concentration camp in occupied Poland during World War II. Reportedly, around 850,000[1] people were killed there between July 1942 and October 1943; the camp was closed after a revolt during which some Germans were killed and a number of prisoners escaped.

"There were the claims of mass graves at Treblinka. Over 800,000 victims of the Nazis were claimed to have been buried there.

"But one of the grave sites abuts a water well, and when testing of the water failed to detect any of the contamination which would result from burying thousands of bodies near a water well (the water should have been lethal to drink), the story was revised to claim that as war's end, the Nazis had dug all those 800,000 bodies up and cremated them to conceal the evidence of their crimes.

"Again, as science progressed this story came into doubt as there was no trace of the vast amount of combustion residues which would have permeated the site of such a huge fire. And finally, ground penetrating radar, which certainly did not exist back when this story was first told, proves that the area where the graves are supposed to have existed has never been disturbed." - Holocaust denial is a crime

Wiseman, Warburg, Cecil and World War

Sir William Wiseman, the Jewish head of British intelligence in the USA, who, during World war I, was reportedly friendly with Max Warburg, the Jewish head of German intelligence.


What were the reasons for World War One?

Some people blame Imperialism.

For example, the Austrian Empire and the Russian Empire clashed over Serbia; the British Empire, the German Empire and Turkish Empire had clashing interests in Iraq.

Some people blame Militaristic Nationalism. There were plenty of Germans and Englishmen who looked forward to a fight.

What role was played by Zionist bankers?




AGAINST ZIONISM has a post entitled LUCIFER MURDERS AN ANGEL which argues that in 1914 a cabal of Jewish bankers wanted a war in order to:

1.
Destroy certain empires.

2. Build a large private banking empire.

Have Zionist Jews occupying key positions in international banks in Europe and North America.

Have the bankers use the weapon of debt to control people and nations.

3. Obtain the promise of a Jewish homeland - the Balfour Declaration.

4. Make lots of money.

Edith Cavell

Among the points made:

1. In 1914, Edith Cavell, an English nurse, was running a teaching hospital in Brussels in Belgium.

2. On 20 August 1914, German troops entered Brussels and turned Edith's hospital into a Red Cross Hospital for German soldiers. Edith began caring for German soldiers.

3. Secretly, Edith was also caring for British, French and Dutch soldiers who entered the same hospital disguised as Belgian labourers.

4. Edith took charge of the Belgian Relief Commission which aimed to get food and medical supplies to war-ravaged Belgium.

Allied charities sent huge amounts of food and medicine to Belgium.




But one day Edith discovered that certain people in Britain were making sure all these supplies ended up in the German Empire.

She discovered that Jewish-owned banks in England were sending money to the Germans to help them buy these supplies.

This was causing famine in Belgium.

5. Edith wrote a letter of protest to a British magazine The Nursing Mirror, which published the letter on 15 April 1915.

6. Edith’s letter was shown to Sir William Wiseman, a Jew who was high up in British Intelligence.

Reportedly, Wiseman contacted Max Warburg, the Jew in charge of German Intelligence, and told Warburg to execute Edith as a British spy.


Max Warburg

Wiseman also contacted Max’s brother Paul, the Jewish head of the U.S. Federal Reserve.

Thousands of Germans wrote letters to their government demanding that Edith be released.

Americans wrote to the British Red Cross; but the head of the British Red Cross was Robert Cecil, reportedly a Jew.

Edith was shot.


Robert Cecil, who had Jewish origins, became a minister in Britain's government.

7. The British Naval Attaché in Scandinavia, Rear Admiral M.P. Consett, kept track of the movement of war supplies from the Jewish bankers to the Germans.

Consett, in his book Triumph of the Unarmed Forces (published 1923), writes that if the bankers had not continually supplied Germany with money and materials, then World War I would have ended in less than a year.

German U-boats were made from Swedish iron ore; Swedish vessels bringing iron ore to Germany needed coal, and coal was controlled by Britain.

Reportedly, the Jewish bankers sent coal to Swedish ship owners.

Rear Admiral Consett protested.


An earlier Robert Cecil was the brains behind the Gunpowder Plot of 1605, a notorious act of fake terrorism.


Robert Cecil, the British Minister of 'Blockade', was reportedly a friend of the Jewish bankers.

Reportedly, Robert Cecil told Admiral Consett to keep quiet.

Germany also needed glycerin (animal fat) to manufacture explosives. England controlled the world glycerin trade.

The Jewish bankers sold glycerin to neutral countries, which sold it to Germany.

Lusitania


8. Reportedly, William Wiseman, the Jewish head of British Intelligence in the United States, made sure there were no British warships available to protect ocean liners at key locations.

The Lusitania was sunk by German torpedoes. The USA entered the war.

"The US boasted it had destroyed the rural economy of the old USSR or the food-growing areas of China...

"In the 70s and 80s Australian environmental experts stated clearly that the maximum population that Australia could support was 13 million...

"You're unaware of the twin-agendas currently being run by the US: 'world famine' coupled with 'global warming'...

"Then combine that with the alleged 'global financial collapse' and the 'plague' scenarios currently being put into place....

False flag ops in Venezuela

Chavez

Mossad and the CIA are very busy in Venezuela.

1. Two students who are leading the opposition to Hugo Chavez appear to have Jewish origins.

These are Diego Aaron Scharifker and David Smolansky Urosa. (Venezuela campaign gets rough)

Student leader Yon Goicoechea accepted $500,000 prize in 2008 from the Cato Institute in Washington.

"Between Chávez and the students receiving the gringo dollars, I'll take Chávez," said María Encarnación Contreras, 58, a housewife. (Venezuela campaign gets rough)

2. It looks like Mossad recently attacked a synagogue in Caracas, in order to make it look like Chavez cannot keep law and order.

Venezuelan investigators have arrested security officials from the synagogue in connection with the attack on the synagogue. (Venezuela arrests 11, including 7 police agents, over synagogue attack)


Venezuela by Alfon...* /by +BP

3. People disguised as pro-Chávez partisans, riding motorcycles, have carried out tear-gas attacks on the home of a television executive, the papal diplomatic mission, and municipal and media buildings. (Venezuela campaign gets rough)

The aim is to make it look as if Chavez cannot keep law and order. This is a classic CIA tactic.

Chavez has ordered the security forces to detain Valentín David Santana who has taken credit for most of the tear gas attacks.

4. Thousands of right-wingers, many of them Jewish, have taken part in a march against Chavez.

5. The media is being used to undermine Chavez. However, the truth does manage to get out.

Venezuelanalysis.com tells us of 10 Years of Progress in Venezuela

Chavez has been in power for ten years and “Bolivarian Revolution” has brought sustained economic growth, and a huge expansion of health care and other social services.

High school graduation rates have increased from 47% to 66%, and university enrollment has increased from 676,515 students to 1.8 million students.

More than a million Venezuelans have been taught to read, bringing the illiteracy rate down to less than one percent.

Ten years ago, only 20% of Venezuelans had access to primary health care. Now nearly 100% of Venezuelans have access.

Infant mortality has dropped from 21 to 13 per one thousand.

Ten years ago, the richest 20% of Venezuelans received 54% of the GDP. Now, the richest 20% get 46% of the country’s total income.

There has been a big growth in the small and medium-sized business sector.

The percentage of people living in extreme poverty has dropped from 23.4% to 9.1% over the past ten years.

Unemployment was 14.6% in 2003. It is now down to 6.1%.

Under the previous regime in the mid 1990s, inflation was 57.8%

Inflation has averaged 22% during the Chávez presidency.

The Transparency International Indonesia corruption report for 2008 ranks Indonesian towns according to the perceptions businessmen have of the extent to which local governments fight against corruption and made it easier to start and do business (Research: Kupang most Indonesian corrupt city):

Yogyakarta (score 6.4 out of 10) least corrupt.

Banda Aceh (6.4)

Jakarta (4.46)

Cirebon (3.8)

Bandung (3.8) most corrupt


Some suspect that Indonesia's Islamist PKS party is linked to the CIA.

Who really carried out the Bali Bombings? Well, you can't trust the military or the police or the courts.

Some politicians are playing a game where they pretend that Islamism will make people more honest.

More than 50 regencies in 16 of 32 provinces throughout Indonesia have passed laws influenced by sharia.

The Padang administration, in Sumatra, issued a law requiring all schoolgirls, regardless of their religion, to wear the headscarf.

Top Indonesian Girl


Most Indonesians are still very liberal and moderate.

Indonesia's largest Muslim group, Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), has publicly denounced the implementation of sharia laws.

(Intellasia News Services -- Sharia-based law spreads ahead of election.)

Megawati is a nationalist. The CIA toppled her father. The Bali Bombing weakened her government and helped the pro-American General Yudhoyono into power.

There are to be elections in Indonesia this year.

The elite hope to use Islam in order to stay in power.

The present president is the Yudhoyono, who is an American-trained former Suharto general.

He was helped into power by the Bali Bomb, which made his predecessor look weak.

Yudhoyono appears to be using Islamism to stay in power.

He is expected to ally with Moslem parties.

Yudhoyono may form a coalition with most if not all of the country's Islamic parties in order to win a majority vote against the secular PDIP which is allied with the secular Golkar Party

PDIP is the party of Sukarno's daughter, Megawati.

Golkar is the party of former president Suharto.

The USA supports Yudhoyono and prefers him to the nationalist Megawati.

The PKS party in indonesia is a Moslem party and it is suspected of being linked to the Muslim Brotherhood, and hence to the CIA and its friends.


'My Friend the Fanatic - Travels with an Indonesian Islamist' tells the story of Indian journalist Sadanand Dhume's journey across Indonesia in 2004. ( My Friend the Fanatic )

Patung, at Indonesia Matters, has written an excellent review of the book.

The book suggests that, in Indonesia, fanatical Islam may have become a stronger force than globalisation.

The 'Fanatic' is Herry Nurdi who reportedly worries about Christian evangelists, Mossad, Zionists, freemasons and George Bush.



Dhume tells us that 'fanatics' like Nurdi do not like Yudhoyono, the former Suharto general who became Indonesia's president in 2004.

Herry believes that the American-trained Yudhoyono is backed by America.

Herry prefers General Wiranto, whose wife has worn full Islamic dress, including the headscarf.

Herry comes across as someone who is quite likeable but somewhat poorly educated and somewhat naive, especially about people like Wiranto.

Herry seems not to have considered that members of the rich elite promote Islamisation in order to keep themselves in power.

(Wiranto was once seen as secular and very close to the Pentagon. Reportedly he masterminded the East Timor rampage - Foreign Policy In Focus Global Affairs Commentary Paul ...)

http://www.nicholsoncartoons.com.au/cartoon_56.html / http://www.nicholsoncartoons.com.au/cartoon_56.html

Dhume refers in his book to 'the cheaply earned moral smugness of the jilbab' (headscarf) .... 'shorthand in my mind for some education and little imagination.'

Patung, in his review, writes:

"The impression one gets is of people spending so much of their energy building more and more mosques, then walking to the mosques, going through the prescribed motions in them, and walking back from them, many times a day.

"Meanwhile the peoples of comparable nations like Vietnam, China and India are said to be beavering away learning science and building factories."

Patung writes:

"The overall message of the book is that Islamist political and cultural forces are gaining the upper hand in Indonesia, most starkly seen in the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood affiliated Justice Party (PKS) ... still a fairly minor party."

(The Muslim Brotherhood reportedly has links to the CIA, something which the 'Fanatic' would not know. aangirfan: The Muslim Brotherhood and the CIA in Indonesia; the ... / aangirfan: The use of the Muslim Brotherhood by MI6 and the CIA in ... )

Patung writes that the influence of the PKS may be exaggerated:

"It is said that South Sulawesi is a 'stronghold' of the PKS.

"However it would be far more accurate to say that the province is a stronghold of Golkar (Suharto's party).

"...But a minor complaint... It is a highly well written and entertaining read, My Friend the Fanatic is more than recommended."

Obama regime to kill off Binyam?

The notorious Admiral Blair, Obama's spy chief, is expected to continue to allow kidnapping and torture.


According to The Observer, on 8 February 2009, a Top US lawyer is warning of deaths at Guantánamo

According to The Observer:

"Suspicion is ... growing that some sections of the US intelligence community would prefer Binyam did die inside Guantánamo...

"Such a scenario would ... deny Binyam Mohamed the chance to personally sue the US, and possibly British authorities, over his treatment."

(Binyam Mohamed tortured - to turn him into a patsy?.)

1. Lt. Colonel Yvonne Bradley, an American military lawyer, is demanding the release from Guantanamo of her client Binyam Mohamed, the British resident who, reportedly, was repeatedly tortured on the instructions of US and UK intelligence officials. (a Top US lawyer is warning of deaths at Guantánamo)

2. Bradley is to tell the UK government that Binyam, 31, is dying in his Guantánamo cell and that conditions at Guantanamo have got much worse since the Obama regime came to power.

3. Witnesses say beatings continue at Guantanamo and 20 of those detained are described as being so unhealthy they are on a "critical list".

4. Binyam Mohamed has told Bradley that he is "very scared" of being attacked by guards, after witnessing a savage beating of a detainee who refused to be strapped down.




5. In San Francisco, a court is to examine the treatment of Binyam Mohamed.

American lawyers are hoping to expose the defence firm that allegedly carried out the practice of "rendition" on behalf of the CIA.

Jeppesen Dataplan, a Boeing subsidiary, reportedly helped to arrange rendition flights, including that of Binyam.

6. The UK Attorney General says the UK is "actively considering" possible criminal wrongdoings against MI5 and the CIA.

However, "the government's senior lawyer has failed, after almost four months of looking into the issue, to request material from the US that may substantiate allegations of MI5 complicity in Mohamed's torture." (a Top US lawyer is warning of deaths at Guantánamo)


CIA torture flights.

Obama's new spy chief is the notorious Admiral Blair!

(Admiral Dennis Blair 'lied' about church killings. / Admiral Dennis Blair and Genocide)

On 5 February 2009, John Pilger wrote in The New Statesman (The politics of bollocks):

"Far from 'shutting down the CIA’s secret prison network', Obama’s executive orders actually give the CIA authority to carry out renditions, abductions and transfers of prisoners in secret without threat of legal obstruction."

The Los Angeles Times disclosed, “current and former US intelligence officials said that the rendition programme might be poised to play an expanded role”.

"America’s numerous 'covert actions' will operate as they did under previous presidents, with proxy regimes, such as Augusto Pinochet’s in Chile, doing the dirtiest work."

A very large number of Moslem Pakistanis work for the CIA.


In the UK, a very large number of Moslem Pakistanis work for the CIA.

"Intelligence briefings for Mr Obama have detailed a dramatic escalation in American espionage in Britain, where the CIA has recruited record numbers of informants in the Pakistani community."

(UK government suppressed evidence on Binyam Mohamed torture ...)

The British official said: "The Americans run their own assets in the Pakistani community; they get their own intelligence. There's close cooperation with MI5 but they don't tell us the names of all their sources."

The CIA has a dossier on Binyam Mohamed.

Barack Obama is under pressure from the House of Representatives Judiciary Committee to release the unedited dossier.

In February 2009, material in this dossier was blacked out by two UK High Court judges.

Reportedly, MI6 got UK foreign secretary Miliband to tell the judges to hush things up.

Reportedly, the blacked out material reveals that British MI6 officers contributed questions while Binyam was being tortured.

UK government suppressed evidence on Binyam Mohamed torture.

MI6 are seen by some as being a bunch of 'Nazis' - (Domville, Knight, Mosley, Blunt.)

All terror charges against Binyam were dropped in 2008, but he is still locked up and he is near to death.

CIA AGENTS?


How do the CIA, the American military-Industrial complex, and the Zionists try to control Europe?

1. According to the Mail on Sunday, 8 February 2009, , Tony Blair, is poised to become the first President of Europe.

Nicolas Sarkozy is determined to help him win the post. - President Blair: Former PM set to become EU chief as Sarkozy battles to win him the post

Tony Blair has been described as a 'fascist', 'war-criminal', Zionist, and 'agent of the CIA.'

Moonie

2. The Americans seem to have very strong links to certain UK politicians and people in the military.

The Sunday Herald has discovered that about half the parliamentary questions tabled by Lord Moonie, the former UK defence minister, 'relate to areas of commercial interest to US-based Northrop Grumman Corporation.'

Moonie is a consultant to Northrop Grumman IT.

Moonie has been accused of being one of four Labour lords ready to accept money in return for helping amend legislation. Moonie, 61, said he would make introductions in return for £30,000 a year. - Cash for questions: new row over Scottish lord’s £30k deal

3. According to Private Eye (UK), August 2005:

Sir Robert Walmsley, former head of UK defence procurement, procured himself a job as director of US arms firm the EDO Corporation.

Admiral lord Boyce, the chief of the UK defence staff who retired in 2003, became an adviser to the American Computer Sciences Corporation in 2004. Boyce told Private Eye that he advised CSC on its bid for a £6 billion defence contract.

4. Sarkozy and Merkel and Brown are said to be working for the CIA.

SARKOZY AND THE CIA
Angela Merkel of the CIA?

5. Britain's leaders all seem to work for the CIA.

"When Gordon Brown was a student at the University of Edinburgh… the young Labour and anti-apartheid activist was handed a list by an individual known to be a top CIA agent based in Britain.

"On the list were the names of a number of British socialists and anti-apartheid activists. Although Brown was said not to have known of his American contact's intelligence ties at the time, the British intelligence sources revealed that Brown has been on the CIA's payroll ever since he took possession of the list." - Columns: 'Washington watch' by Tumbler Prospect Magazine July ...

Brown, agent of the CIA?

Leyland ceased to exist. Iberdrola took over Scottish Power. Ferrovial took over BAA...

6. Many of Britian's top companies have disappeared or been taken over.

BP may be next.

"The most startling takeover target of the year will be BP, which will attract interest from Exxon Mobil... With the crude oil price falling to its lowest level since the 1990s, BP will be historically cheap by most measures..." - After a year of shocks, prepare for more in 2009



7. Britain's military now appears to be run by the Pentagon and Britain's nuclear missiles are American-controlled. - Anger as Britain secretly sells off its stake in Aldermaston ...

8. The CIA seems to be able to control Britain's police and courts, when it suits them. - LOCKERBIE BOMBING EVIDENCE 'PLANTED' - Mail on Sunday 21 December 2008

Victor Rothschild worked for the British security services. Was he also working for Mossad?

9. In 1965 Angleton, and President Johnson, decided to commission a report on Britain's secret services.

This report recommended sending more spies to Britain It seemed that the CIA was going to treat Britain like Indonesia or Pakistan.

In order to ensure that there was an elite which would support US interests, the CIA would try to gain control of MI5 and MI6, use dirty tricks to get rid of anti-American politicians, and place pro-American puppets into positions of power.

In 1996, in the Guardian, Martin Kettle suggested that New Labour was all about Britain being in with the Americans.

10. In a talk to Labour Party branches in 1996, Robin Ramsay (Lobster Magazine) pointed out some interesting links between New labour and the USA.

Jonathan Powell, Blair's top man in Downing Street, used to work in Britain's Washington embassy and is suspected by some of having been our spook liaising with the CIA.

UK Foreign Secretary David Miliband is the son of a Jewish Marxist.

Top Blair aide David Milliband did a degree at the USA's MIT and Brown's top aid Edward Balls went to Harvard.

Gordon Brown spent his holidays in the library at Harvard.

The US encouraged large numbers of Labour MPs to take free trips to America (Israel also invited a large number of Labour MPs to Israel).

In 1986 Tony Blair went on a US-sponsored trip to America and came back a supporter of the nuclear deterrent.

In 1993 Blair attended a Bilderberg Group meeting (secretive right wing organisation) and not long afterwards became Labour leader.

Four of the Blair cabinet have been members of the Anglo-American elite group the British American Project; three of the Blair cabinet have attended Bilderberg meetings.

Peter Mandelson become Chair of British Youth Council which began as the British section of the World Assembly of Youth, which was set up and financed by MI6 and then taken over by the CIA in the 1950s. By Mandelson's time in the mid1970s the British Youth Council was said to be financed by the For
