Our terrorists
New Internationalist
Friday, Nov 6th, 2009
Once upon a time, the CIA trained, financed and supported Osama bin Laden and his mujahidin networks in Afghanistan to repel the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. After the end of the Cold War, bin Laden turned against the West and we no longer had any use for him. His persistent terrorist attacks against us for more than a decade, culminating in 9/11, provoked our own response, in the form of the ‘War on Terror’. This is the official narrative. And it’s false. Not only did Western intelligence services continue to foster Islamist extremist and terrorist groups connected to al-Qaeda after the Cold War; they continued to do so even after 9/11.
The CIA’s jihad
The story begins in the summer of 1979, six months before the Soviet invasion, when the CIA had already begun financing elements of an emerging Islamist mujahidin force inside Afghanistan. The idea, according to former US National Security Adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski and former CIA Director Robert Gates, was to increase the probability of a Soviet invasion, and entrap ‘the Soviets into a Vietnamese quagmire’.1
Osama bin Laden arrived in the country later that year, sent by then-Saudi intelligence chief Prince Turki bin Faisal, where he set up the Maktab al-Khidamat (MAK) which helped finance, recruit and train mujahidin fighters.2 Bin Laden, the MAK, and the Afghan mujahidin in total received about half a billion dollars a year from the CIA, and roughly the same from the Saudis, funnelled through Pakistan’s Inter Services Intelligence (ISI).3
By around 1988, as Jane’s Defence Weekly reports, ‘with US knowledge, Bin Laden created al-Qaeda (The Base): a conglomerate of quasi-independent Islamic terrorist cells spread across at least 26 countries’.4 US and Western intelligence agencies facilitated this process, seeing rightwing Islamist movements as a counterweight to Communist, leftwing and nationalist political trends. They supported the Saudis and other Gulf states, as well as Pakistan, Turkey and Azerbaijan among others, in proliferating Islamist extremist institutions in far-flung countries such as Algeria, Yemen, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Funding for these activities was intertwined with the establishment of organized criminal financial centres in Malaysia, Madagascar, South Africa, Nigeria, Latin America, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Turkestan, and elsewhere.5
Islamism and the CIA’s destabilization doctrine
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, and in particular in 1991 when the Saudis accepted the stationing of 300,000 US troops in the country due to the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait, Osama bin Laden reportedly turned against his former masters in Riyadh and Washington. Since then, bin Laden and his al-Qaeda terrorist network became our enemy, targeting Western citizens and interests throughout the 1990s, culminating in the most devastating strike of all in the form of the 9/11 atrocities in the US.

Osama Bin Laden a tall sallow figure, was filmed boarding a US C130 aircraft in Turkish occupied Cyprus with a number of other equally disreputable looking individuals, prior to its departure for Algeria in about 1993.
A shocking series of massacres which took some sixty thousand lives, were then underway in that country, after the Algerian voters had elected a pro Islamic government in 1992.. the obvious conclusion was that they were on their way to participant in the killing!

The story goes into a lot of detail and is well researched. However, they still fall short of the truth, especially regarding 9/11. Consider the following excerpt:
The history outlined here throws into doubt our entire understanding of the ‘war on terror’. How can we fight a war against an enemy that our own governments are covertly financing for short-sighted geopolitical interests?
If the ‘war on terror’ is to end, it won’t be won by fighting the next futile oil war. It will be won at home by holding the secretive structures of government to account and prosecuting officials for aiding and abetting terrorism – whether knowingly or by criminal negligence. Ultimately only this will rein in the ‘security’ agencies that foster the ‘enemy’ we are supposed to be fighting.
The obviously still can’t accept the fact that the rogue elements in the government are taking their orders from a higher international body.

Yeah, the “war on Terror” is another diversion, like the “War on Drugs”. But what to do about REAL THREATS?? They do exist. I do not advocate imperialism. I would love to see our troops home. But, I would rather fight a determined foe on his ground, not on my doorstep. So I continue my SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH. May the God’s bless and comfort the families of the victims.

Talk about terrorism, is it possible that the governments push for Swine Flu vaccinations has whole lot amore to do with getting people to accept nanotechnology adjuvants which are secretly being injected along with the vaccines? Experts in the field of nanotechnology contend that these smart particles have the ability to effect heart rhythm and muscle contractions and we all know how this technology is used to track weather via doppler radar. Read the following articles. Will you connect the dots?

Dear Canine Vittles: Good points here. Would using nanotechnology increase the costs of the vaccines though?
November 6th, 2009 at 3:42 pm
Not at all BeTrueSeekTruth, in fact the vaccine makers are already using these adjuvents in the swine flue vaccines already being widely distributed. I was merely trying to raise awareness about this technology without identifying my source. Truth be with you!

I’m Beer O Reilly and you can F-Off! Tonite I and my staff of investigators completed our investigation into the world of “Phony Internet Posters.” We started with a poster using the nick “Patriot Gal” and others here we will keep a secret. We did a little “probing” into there computers and found what we suspected all along, ADL and SPLC Jewish Racist Email links, we have long suspected the racist Zionist Jews infiltrating Internet forums and spewing Anti-Arab and Pro Zionist endless war propaganda. We here at the NO SPIN ZONE are the true watchdogs of truth in the media, We hope you watch me at Foxxy news so you might have a chance to win a No Spin Zone baseball cap, or coffe mug.
