Does Al-Qaida exist?

Since the 11 September attacks on the World Trade Centre in New York, Al-Qaida has been represented as a monolithic organisation with an almost global reach. However, some observers believe Al-Qaida is little more than an idea connecting the largely independent actions of a loose network of organisations and individuals. Peter Marsden traces the history of Al-Qaida and concludes that while the global organisation of popular belief does not exist, the US-led ‘war on terror’ may be the catalyst that turns the myth of Al-Qaida into reality.

The US air strikes on Afghanistan of August 1998 brought to world attention the names of Al-Qaida and its reported leader, Osama bin Laden. The latter was presented as orchestrating a global campaign of terrorist activity from a network of terrorist training camps in Afghanistan. Thereafter, his profile continued to rise until, by the time of the US elections in early 2001, he was already identified as the primary target of US defence policy. When the World Trade Centre was the object of the major terrorist attack of 11 September 2001, the US President immediately issued a public accusation that Osama bin Laden was responsible for the attack. This was used to justify the subsequent US-led military intervention in Afghanistan and the establishment of US military bases in Afghanistan to facilitate a search for Taliban and Al-Qaida forces.

The reality is much more complex. Al-Qaida was the name of an organisation set up in Peshawar, Pakistan to process volunteers from other parts of the Islamic world who wanted to fight alongside the Mujahidin in the jihad against the Soviet occupying forces. The volunteers processed by Al-Qaida were sent to military training camps operated, with US support, by one or other of the Mujahidin parties. Osama bin Laden was mandated by the Saudi Government to set up this office. Al-Qaida was not, therefore, a political movement.

However, there were organisations participating in the jihad which did advocate violence against the West and they formed part of a network of radical Islamic organisations based in Pakistan which espoused a multiplicity of political objectives. It should be stressed, however, that those who argued for violence against Western targets were a minority.

This minority grew in size over the course of the 1990s in response to specific actions of the international community and, in particular, of the US Government the first of these, the Gulf War of 1991, led to the stationing of US troops on Saudi soil. This provoked outrage throughout the Islamic world because the US presence was seen as a violation of the Islamic holy places.

Osama bin Laden joined forces with certain radical leaders in the Sudan to campaign for the removal of US forces from Saudi Arabia. His activities resulted in his expulsion from the Sudan, as a result of US pressure on the government, and he took refuge in Afghanistan. There he maintained a low profile until the US air strikes on Afghanistan of August 1998 made him into an internationally-known figure. The US government demanded that the Taliban hand him over to face justice as a key suspect in the terrorist attacks on the US embassies in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam of that month. The Taliban, who had, up to that point, had very little contact with Osama bin Laden, were forced to offer him protection. To have done otherwise would have lost them their support base amongst the students of Islamic madrasahs in Pakistan and amongst particular radical Islamic parties in Pakistan.

From here on, both Osama bin Laden and the Taliban took on enormous symbolic importance as defenders of the Islamic world against the West.

The political environment in Afghanistan became progressively more radical. The Taliban attracted large numbers of volunteers from other parts of the Islamic world to fight alongside them as they sought to complete their conquest of Afghanistan in order to create an Islamic state. The volunteers received military training in the camps set up for the Afghan jihad, and some joined one or other of the groups that advocated violence against the West. Many returned from Afghanistan, to their countries of origin or settlement, inspired by the sense of solidarity they had felt with other volunteers in Afghanistan and, also, in some cases, inspired by the political messages they had heard.

We have, therefore, an international network of people who have fought in Afghanistan, some of whom have since opted to engage in terrorist activity against Western targets as a result. This network is referred to as Al-Qaida but it is no more than a loose network. The literature I have read on Al-Qaida provides no evidence that Al-Qaida is the global organisation that it has been portrayed to be, able to orchestrate terrorist acts world-wide. The risk is that actions by the US Government which deeply offend Islamic opinion, such as the recent US-led military intervention in Iraq, will strengthen communication within the network to the point where greater collaboration will create greater effectiveness and the myth of Al-Qaida may become a reality.

Neo-Nazi leader 'was MI6 agent'

http://www.guardian.co.uk/international/story/0,3604,773568,00.html

---------------------------------------

BINGO! Here we find yet another instance where the enemies the government tells us to be afraid of are created by the government itself. "Terrorists" try to bomb the WTC, then we find out the "terrorists" included FBI. "Militia's" are declared a threat to the nation following the OK city bombing, then we find out that most Militia's are being run by BATF informants. The founder and leader of Elohim City, a "hotbed of white separatism" at the time Tim McVeigh was hanging around, was also an FBI informant. "Neo-Nazis" are on the rise, and we find out the Neo-Nazi leaders are intelligence agents. "Al Qaeda" knocks down the WTC on 9-11, then we find out that at least in the case if Palestine, "Al Qaeda" is actually a Mossad front. Do you get it yet? All this terror and terror group crap is a FRAUD by the government itself to scare you under control.

Immigration officers let terrorists into UK: Report

September 14, 2003 18:30 IST

A gang of suspected Algerian terrorists with alleged links to Al Qaeda are on the run in Britain after breaching immigration checks.

One of them has already been caught working for a Heathrow freight firm, media reports said on Sunday.

The Heathrow worker, now in prison, was one of more than a dozen suspected terrorists allowed to enter Britain, The Sunday Times said in an article.

According to the report, senior anti-terrorist officers are furious that Al Qaeda suspects breached immigration checks and that one of them was able to penetrate the world's biggest international airport.

The suspect was arrested recently as he was about to board an international flight. Anti-terrorist officers discovered he was living near the airport and working for an air services company after the Bank of England circulated a list of 17 Al Qaeda suspects whose assets were to be traced and frozen.

The 17 names were passed to banking authorities by Italian intelligence last October after they arrested several leading Al Qaeda suspects, the report said.

The three men -- who had allegedly been in contact with the Italian Al Qaeda cell -- were discovered in Britain in January but the arrests have not been publicised.

Two of them are being held at Belmarsh high security prison in southeast London under the Terrorism Act 2000.

One of those detained is alleged to be one of Al Qaeda's European leaders, while the third man has been convicted in absentia of committing terrorist offences in Algeria. He is believed to be a senior figure in Takfir wal-Hijra, now part of Al Qaeda.

The third man is believed to be living in London's Algerian community, and has been seen at the Finsbury Park Mosque. He was able to claim asylum in Britain despite being named on a European Union list of terrorist suspects sent to police forces and immigration authorities.

The report quoted a senior immigration officer describing the service and asylum system as a 'mess'.

Government totalitarianism to defend us from the terrorists the government allows in: Immigration officers let terrorists into UK, who then got jobs at Heathrow Airport

Terror laws are 'needless totalitarianism'

A terrorist attack on the UK is seen as a serious threat
Planned new laws to deal with a large-scale terror attack in Britain smack of "needless totalitarianism", said the Conservatives.

Tory homeland defence spokesman Patrick Mercer was commenting on legislation which could allow the government to invoke a vast array of powers if Britain was attacked or was perceived to be at risk of a terrorist strike.

One Conservative peer on the cross-parliamentary committee looking at the Draft Civil Contingencies Bill suggested the plans could theoretically be used to turn Britain into a republic if a state of emergency was called.

The government says the measures are designed to ensure Britain has the best possible plans for dealing with an emergency, with clear responsibilities set out for those on the front line.


Once a state of emergency is declared [the government] can effectively tear up the rest of the constitution and any bits of this bill [they do not like] and create a republic...
Lord Lucas of Crudwell

The measures would shake up legislation that dates back to the 1920s, giving ministers all the powers they need to tackle a wide range of incidents.

These would include allowing the government to rush through temporary legislation without prior parliamentary approval, and giving authorities the right to declare a regional state of emergency.

Mr Mercer told BBC News Online the draft laws contained "elements that smacked of needless totalitarianism".

Big Brother might watch; you shouldn't

By Robert Bianco, USA TODAY
How nice to know we have nothing to fear.

What, you're worried about terrorists? Well, you won't be after ABC's Threat Matrix introduces you to the all-wise, all-powerful super-secret operatives of the Homeland Security Agency. You'll rest easy, knowing our Homeland heroes are tracking would-be terrorists' movements by satellite, monitoring their radio transmissions, listening in on their phone calls and reading their e-mail. Nothing or nobody gets past them.

As for those Chicken Littles who worry that an agency with such powers might use them to infringe on civil rights, Threat Matrix has an answer for you, as well. When a clearly foolish, and probably leftist, reporter asks the guy in charge how we know the agency won't spy on American citizens, he says simply, "Because it's against the law."

I know I'll sleep easier.

Look, there's no question Threat Matrix is terrible. The only question is which of its many hideous attributes is the worst: its attempt to pass high-tech twaddle off as reality, its unscrupulous desire to cash in on a nationwide trauma, or the shattering incompetence it brings to both tasks. This is what 24 would beif the scripts were terrible and the cast was negligible.

Tonight's premiere opens with a prolonged attack on an American missile silo. You may think it's terrorists, but it's just those crazy kids from Homeland Security, making us all safer by running off with a nuclear warhead. To prove their point, they drive the warhead right into the middle of downtown D.C., which, I must say, would seem to be just a tad rash.

The leaders of this elite force are John Kilmer (James Denton) and his ex-wife Frankie (Kelly Rutherford). She heads straight from D.C. to Indonesia, where she's promptly taken hostage. So now, while John is looking for terrorists who have somehow sneaked past his satellites, he also has to look for his ex.

Though it's virtually suspense-free, the hour-long premiere does feature one relatively neat trick involving a computer and plastic surgery. (It makes no sense in terms of the plot, however, since they've already established they could apply the same trick to anyone's face.) Otherwise, the show is stuffed with visual filler, starting almost every scene with a superfluous zoom down from outer space or out through a telephone wire — though if the tricks take time from the script, no one is likely to complain.

All told, Threat Matrix is as witless an hour as you'll find this season. And yet, why worry? The show is airing opposite Friends and Survivor.

Threat ended.

Suspect claims intelligence link


A Frenchman on trial over the Casablanca suicide bombings has worked for French intelligence, he has claimed at his trial in Morocco.

Pierre Robert told the court he had been paid to infiltrate Muslim groups.

Mr Robert and 33 other people are charged with murder, conspiracy and possessing arms and explosives.

The Casablanca attacks, involving around 12 suicide bombers, killed 33 other people.

Mr Robert, 31, said a French secret service agent known as "Mr Luc" first approached him to recruit him five years ago, and paid him for his services.

"I was contacted at the time of the (football) World Cup in 1998 by the DST to conduct inquiries into Algerian Islamist networks in France, and I did that," Mr Robert told the court in Rabat.

After successfully completing the mission, Mr Robert was asked by Mr Luc to investigate "Islamist activities in Belgium" - which he also carried out, he said.

A French Interior Ministry official has insisted that the department had "never had contact with this person."

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/3091624.stm

Last month, Charles J. Hanley, special correspondent for the Associated Press and winner of a Pulitzer Prize in 2000, wrote a devastating 2,500-word critique of claims made by Secretary of State Colin Powell in his influential Feb. 5 speech to the United Nations on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction. In a column published this week, E&P Editor Greg Mitchell calls this speech the single most important moment in the march to war -- and charges that the media's unquestioning endorsement of Powell's assertions made invasion inevitable. Here are brief, edited excerpts from the Hanley article (available in its entirety at Philly.com).

ALUMINUM TUBES: Powell said "most United States experts" believed aluminum tubes sought by Iraq were intended for use as centrifuge cylinders for enriching uranium for nuclear bombs.
Energy Department experts and Powell's own State Department intelligence bureau had already dissented from this CIA view... No centrifuge program has been reported found.

REVIVED NUCLEAR PROGRAM: "We have no indication that Saddam Hussein has ever abandoned his nuclear weapons program," Powell said.

On July 24, Foreign Minister Ana Palacio of Spain, a U.S. ally on Iraq, said there was "no evidence, no proof" of a nuclear bomb program before the war. No such evidence has been reported found since the invasion.

DECONTAMINATION VEHICLES: At two sites, Powell said trucks were "decontamination vehicles" associated with chemical weapons.

Nothing has been reported found since... Norwegian inspector Jorn Siljeholm told AP on March 19 that "decontamination vehicles" U.N. teams were led to by U.S. information invariably turned out to be water or fire trucks.

BIOWEAPONS TRAILERS: Powell said defectors had told of "biological weapons factories" on trucks and in train cars. He displayed artists' conceptions of such vehicles.

After the invasion, U.S. authorities said they found two such truck trailers in Iraq, and the CIA said it concluded they were part of a bioweapons production line. But no trace of biological agents was found on them, Iraqis said the equipment made hydrogen for weather balloons, and State Department intelligence balked at the CIA's conclusion.

DESERT WEAPONS: According to Powell, unidentified sources said the Iraqis dispersed rocket launchers and warheads holding biological weapons to the western desert, hiding them in palm groves and moving them every one to four weeks.

Nothing has been reported found, after months of searching by U.S. and Australian troops in the nearly empty desert.

ANTHRAX: Powell noted Iraq had declared it produced 8,500 liters of the biological agent anthrax before 1991. None has been "verifiably accounted for," he said.

No anthrax has been reported found, post-invasion. The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), in a confidential report last September (five months before the Powell speech) said that although it believed Iraq had biological weapons it didn't know their nature, amounts, or condition.

UNMANNED AIRCRAFT: Powell showed video of an Iraqi F-1 Mirage jet spraying "simulated anthrax." He said four such spray tanks were unaccounted for, and Iraq was building small unmanned aircraft "well suited for dispensing chemical and biological weapons."

According to U.N. inspectors' reports, the video predated the 1991 Gulf War, when the Mirage was said to have been destroyed, and three of the four spray tanks were destroyed in the 1990s. No small drones or other planes with chemical-biological capability have been reported found in Iraq since the invasion.

FOUR TONS OF VX: Powell said Iraq produced four tons of the nerve agent VX.

Powell didn't note that most of that was destroyed in the 1990s under U.N. supervision. No VX has been reported found since the invasion. Experts at Britain's Internatonal Institute of Strategic Studies said any pre-1991 VX most likely would have degraded anyway.

'EMBEDDED' CAPABILITY: "We know that Iraq has embedded key portions of its illicit chemical weapons infrastructure within its legitimate civilian industry," Powell said.

No "chemical weapons infrastructure" has been reported found. The recently-disclosed DIA report of last September said there was "no reliable information" on where Iraq might have established chem-warfare facilities.

CHEMICAL AGENTS: "Our conservative estimate is that Iraq today has a stockpile of between 100 and 500 tons of chemical-weapons agent," Powell said.

Powell gave no basis for the assertion, and no such agents have been reported found. That same DIA report had reported "no reliable information on whether Iraq is producing and stockpiling chemical weapons."

CHEMICAL WEAPONS: "Saddam Hussein has chemical weapons...And we have sources who tell us that he recently has authorized his field commanders to use them," Powell said.

No such weapons were used in the war and none was reported found.

CHEMICAL WARHEADS: Powell said 122-mm "chemical" warheads found by U.N. inspectors in January might be the "tip of an iceberg."

The warheads were empty, a fact Powell didn't note. No others have been reported found since the invasion.

SCUDS, NEW MISSILES: Powell said "intelligence sources" indicate Iraq had a secret force of up to a few dozen prohibited Scud-type missiles. He said it also had a program to build newer, 600-mile-range missiles.

No Scud-type missiles have been reported found. No program for long-range missiles has been reported.

Bush warning to 'servants of evil'

AMERICANS will never forget the "servants of evil" who plotted the September 11 terror attacks, President Bush claimed as a fresh recording of al-Qaida leader Osama Bin Laden paid tribute to the suicide bombers who killed 3000 people two years ago today.

Meanwhile, sombre memorial services were being held across the United States, Britain and around the world in recognition of the atrocities.

The eve of the anniversary saw Mr Bush renew his pledge to hunt down and destroy global terror organisations - forces which he said could not be appeased and could not be ignored.

The President’s homeland security speech came amid questions about whether the US is better prepared now than on the day two years ago when terrorists used three hijacked planes to attack New York’s World Trade Centre and the Pentagon in Washington. A fourth jet plunged into a Pennsylvania field after passengers stormed the cockpit to battle suspected al-Qaida terrorists.

TWO YEARS LATER

President Asks for Expanded Patriot Act

Authority Sought To Fight Terror

Attorney General John D. Ashcroft introduces President Bush, as FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III, left, and Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge applaud.

Thursday, September 11, 2003; Page A01

President Bush, in a speech marking today's anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, called on Congress yesterday to "untie the hands of our law enforcement officials" by expanding the government's ability to probe and detain terrorism suspects.

Hailing the passage of the 2001 USA Patriot Act, which expanded federal police powers, Bush said those changes did not go far enough. He called for empowering authorities in terrorist investigations to issue subpoenas without going to grand juries, to hold suspects without bail and to pursue the death penalty in more cases.

"Under current federal law, there are unreasonable obstacles to investigating and prosecuting terrorism, obstacles that don't exist when law enforcement officials are going after embezzlers or drug traffickers," Bush said at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Va. "For the sake of the American people, Congress should change the law and give law enforcement officials the same tools they have to fight terror that they have to fight other crime."

In endorsing an extension of the Patriot Act, Bush plunged into a contentious issue on the eve of the Sept. 11 remembrance, which Bush has proclaimed "Patriots Day." By endorsing an expansion of police powers, the president put himself at odds with a number of Republican lawmakers who have joined Democrats in an effort to scale back part of the original Patriot Act.

Opponents said Bush, in launching the offensive, was seeking to blunt an effort to repeal the increased authority the administration won shortly after the 2001 attacks. "It's clear the administration, now on the defensive, is trying to use offense as a defensive strategy," said Anthony Romero, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union. "The public is saying they've gone too far. Now you have the president and the attorney general asking for additional power."

Bin Laden Tape Is Old Material - French Expert

Thu September 11, 2003 09:41 AM ET

PARIS (Reuters) - A leading French terrorism expert cautioned Thursday against taking the latest Osama bin Laden video at face value, saying it was largely an edited collection of old footage and sound tracks that have already been aired.

Wednesday, the Al Jazeera Arabic television station broadcast a tape of bin Laden and his right hand man Ayman al-Zawahri, in which the al Qaeda leader urges supporters to bury Americans in "the graveyard of Iraq."

But Roland Jacquard, head of the Paris-based International Observatory on Terrorism, told French radio that the tape was above all a show of defiance on the eve of the September 11 anniversary by al Qaeda number two al-Zawahri.

"We have to be extremely prudent about this message," Jacquard told Europe 1 radio.

"Given that Osama bin Laden has not appeared on a video cassette for many months it's pretty incomprehensible that in the only video cassette where he appears beside Ayman al-Zawahri he doesn't speak, he just allows the latter to speak.

"The voice of bin Laden we hear in the background, thanking the World Trade Center plane hijackers, is exactly the same message that was broadcast in a video cassette by Al Jazeera on 26 December 2001," he said.

Sleeper Agents Mobilizing for 9-11 Anniversary

Israel is secretly mobilizing its sleeper agents in the United States in the run-up to the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks.



Exclusive to American Free Press

By Gordon Thomas



In an unprecedented move, Israel has secretly mobilized its estimated 15,000 sleeper agents —known as sayanim—across America. For the past month, in the utmost secrecy, they have been briefed by former Mossad operations director, Raphael (Rafi) Eitan, on how to update the defense systems of synagogues, Jewish religious schools, Jewish banks, and other Jewish-owned institutions.

Many of the sayanim—the name comes from the Hebrew “to help”—have received weapons training during their military service. Others have worked in U.S. military intelligence. A number are currently employed by police forces across the country.

“While their allegiance to their birth country cannot be doubted, each sayan recognizes a greater loyalty: the mystical one to Israel and a need to help protect it from its enemies,” Meir Amit, a former Mossad chief, has said. He created the secret force of sayanim.

Known as Israel’s “invisible army,” all its members are vetted by professional Mossad intelligence officers, called katsas, before being recruited.

Iraqi Cities 'Hot' with Depleted Uranium
Dutch Worry About Depleted Uranium As Troops Enter Iraq

By Sara Flounders

Has U.S. use of depleted-uranium weapons turned Iraq into a radioactive danger area for both Iraqis and occupation troops?

This question has already had serious consequences. In hot spots in downtown Baghdad, reporters have measured radiation levels that are 1,000 to 1,900 times higher than normal background radiation levels.

It has also opened a debate in the Netherlands parliament and media as 1,100 Dutch troops in Kuwait prepare to enter Iraq as part of the U.S./British-led occupation forces. The Dutch are concerned about the danger of radioactive poisoning and radiation sickness in Iraq.

Washington has assured the Dutch government that it used no DU weapons near Al-Samawah, the town where Dutch troops will be stationed. But Dutch journalists and anti-war forces have already found holes in the U.S. stories, according to an article on the Radio Free Europe website.

Al Qaeda: Worse coming

Tape vows attack to dwarf 9/11

By JAMES GORDON MEEK
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER

WASHINGTON - A new Al Qaeda audiotape broadcast yesterday threatened strikes on the U.S. so devastating that Americans will "forget" the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

The tape played on Arab satellite TV four days before the second anniversary of the attacks.

The voice on the tape, dated Sept. 3, promised terror "everywhere" that "will prove to you what we are saying."

"We announce there will be new attacks inside and outside which would make America forget the attacks of Sept. 11," Al Qaeda spokesman Abu Abdel-Rahman Al-Najdi said, according to the Dubai-based Al Arabiya channel.

Al-Najdi's voice was last heard Aug. 18 - the day before a truck bomb in Baghdad killed a United Nations envoy and more than two dozen other UN workers.

Al-Najdi said the terror group has doubled in size and he urged Muslims to join the fight to drive U.S. forces from Iraq. He denied that Al Qaeda was connected to last month's car bomb attack in Najaf that killed Shiite Muslim cleric Mohammad Baqir al-Hakim and about 100 worshipers - but said nothing about the deadly UN attack.
