Book: U.S. Military Drafted Plans to Terrorize U.S. Cities to Provoke War With Cuba

By David Ruppe



N E W Y O R K, May 1 — In the early 1960s, America's top military leaders reportedly drafted plans to kill innocent people and commit acts of terrorism in U.S. cities to create public support for a war against Cuba.



Code named Operation Northwoods, the plans reportedly included the possible assassination of Cuban émigrés, sinking boats of Cuban refugees on the high seas, hijacking planes, blowing up a U.S. ship, and even orchestrating violent terrorism in U.S. cities.
The plans were developed as ways to trick the American public and the international community into supporting a war to oust Cuba's then new leader, communist Fidel Castro.

America's top military brass even contemplated causing U.S. military casualties, writing: "We could blow up a U.S. ship in Guantanamo Bay and blame Cuba," and, "casualty lists in U.S. newspapers would cause a helpful wave of national indignation."

Details of the plans are described in Body of Secrets (Doubleday), a new book by investigative reporter James Bamford about the history of America's largest spy agency, the National Security Agency. However, the plans were not connected to the agency, he notes.

The plans had the written approval of all of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and were presented to President Kennedy's defense secretary, Robert McNamara, in March 1962. But they apparently were rejected by the civilian leadership and have gone undisclosed for nearly 40 years.

"These were Joint Chiefs of Staff documents. The reason these were held secret for so long is the Joint Chiefs never wanted to give these up because they were so embarrassing," Bamford told ABCNEWS.com.

"The whole point of a democracy is to have leaders responding to the public will, and here this is the complete reverse, the military trying to trick the American people into a war that they want but that nobody else wants."

Gunning for War

The documents show "the Joint Chiefs of Staff drew up and approved plans for what may be the most corrupt plan ever created by the U.S. government," writes Bamford.

The Joint Chiefs even proposed using the potential death of astronaut John Glenn during the first attempt to put an American into orbit as a false pretext for war with Cuba, the documents show.

Should the rocket explode and kill Glenn, they wrote, "the objective is to provide irrevocable proof … that the fault lies with the Communists et all Cuba [sic]."

The plans were motivated by an intense desire among senior military leaders to depose Castro, who seized power in 1959 to become the first communist leader in the Western Hemisphere — only 90 miles from U.S. shores.

The earlier CIA-backed Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba by Cuban exiles had been a disastrous failure, in which the military was not allowed to provide firepower.The military leaders now wanted a shot at it.

"The whole thing was so bizarre," says Bamford, noting public and international support would be needed for an invasion, but apparently neither the American public, nor the Cuban public, wanted to see U.S. troops deployed to drive out Castro.

Reflecting this, the U.S. plan called for establishing prolonged military — not democratic — control over the island nation after the invasion.

"That's what we're supposed to be freeing them from," Bamford says. "The only way we would have succeeded is by doing exactly what the Russians were doing all over the world, by imposing a government by tyranny, basically what we were accusing Castro himself of doing."

'Over the Edge'

The Joint Chiefs at the time were headed by Eisenhower appointee Army Gen. Lyman L. Lemnitzer, who, with the signed plans in hand made a pitch to McNamara on March 13, 1962, recommending Operation Northwoods be run by the military.

Whether the Joint Chiefs' plans were rejected by McNamara in the meeting is not clear. But three days later, President Kennedy told Lemnitzer directly there was virtually no possibility of ever using overt force to take Cuba, Bamford reports. Within months, Lemnitzer would be denied another term as chairman and transferred to another job.

The secret plans came at a time when there was distrust in the military leadership about their civilian leadership, with leaders in the Kennedy administration viewed as too liberal, insufficiently experienced and soft on communism. At the same time, however, there real were concerns in American society about their military overstepping its bounds.

There were reports U.S. military leaders had encouraged their subordinates to vote conservative during the election.

And at least two popular books were published focusing on a right-wing military leadership pushing the limits against government policy of the day. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee published its own report on right-wing extremism in the military, warning a "considerable danger" in the "education and propaganda activities of military personnel" had been uncovered. The committee even called for an examination of any ties between Lemnitzer and right-wing groups. But Congress didn't get wind of Northwoods, says Bamford.

"Although no one in Congress could have known at the time," he writes, "Lemnitzer and the Joint Chiefs had quietly slipped over the edge."

Even after Lemnitzer was gone, he writes, the Joint Chiefs continued to plan "pretext" operations at least through 1963.

One idea was to create a war between Cuba and another Latin American country so that the United States could intervene. Another was to pay someone in the Castro government to attack U.S. forces at the Guantanamo naval base — an act, which Bamford notes, would have amounted to treason. And another was to fly low level U-2 flights over Cuba, with the intention of having one shot down as a pretext for a war.

"There really was a worry at the time about the military going off crazy and they did, but they never succeeded, but it wasn't for lack of trying," he says.

After 40 Years

Ironically, the documents came to light, says Bamford, in part because of the 1992 Oliver Stone film JFK, which examined the possibility of a conspiracy behind the assassination of President Kennedy.

As public interest in the assassination swelled after JFK's release, Congress passed a law designed to increase the public's access to government records related to the assassination.

The author says a friend on the board tipped him off to the documents.

Afraid of a congressional investigation, Lemnitzer had ordered all Joint Chiefs documents related to the Bay of Pigs destroyed, says Bamford. But somehow, these remained.

"The scary thing is none of this stuff comes out until 40 years after," says Bamford.

New world order needed to cushion the poor—Mbeki

Tawanda Majoni

There is need for a new world order that would ensure peace, development and respect for human rights, says South African president, Thabo Mbeki.

In his weekly statement published by the ruling African National Congress, Mbeki also expressed bitterness that there were rich nations that were trying to perpetuate poverty in the developing world for their own selfish gains.

“It is we, the poor and not the rich, who need a new world order based on a new multilateralism for peace, security, sustainable development, social justice, democracy, respect for human rights and gender equality,” said Mbeki.

Mbeki made these remarks in the wake of the South African government’s participation at a congress organised by the Socialist International (SI), which met in Sao Paolo in Brazil last week. T o page 2From page 1 The organisation is a global movement of social democratic, socialist and labour parties. It is the world’s largest organisation of political parties, with the majority of its membership being part of alliances with mass and lobby movements such as trade unions and representatives organisations of the youth, women and the religious community.

Clinton's Global Community

By Dave Franklin on 11/09/03
Printer friendly version

Answering a question at the Kennedy Center on October 27, impeached ex-President Bill Clinton told a gathering of corporate executives what he wanted to see in Iraq. "I wish that the United Nations could have overall responsibility for the security and then ask NATO to be the instrument of it," Clinton said. Well, aren't we lucky to have a former President who still likes to spout off about what he would do if he were in power, despite a tradition of previous ex-Presidents who had the decency to stay out of the way.

In his opening comments, Clinton had already told the audience how much he admired the first President Bush's use of the phrase, "New World Order", saying he often liked to use those words to describe his strategy for eliminating "chaos" in a "global community". After touting his accomplishments in establishing the WTO, expanding NATO, seeing greater authority of the European Union, and getting "a commitment for the Free Trade Area of the Americas", Clinton bragged about how a global “interdependence" he helped bring about created insecurity.

That's where Bubba thinks George H.W. Bush's "New World Order" comes in, to create security for one-world "interdependency". But there are some problems associated with Billy's hope for global government, and they aren't just centered on the vast corruption that infects elite international enterprises. If that were all there is to it, no problem -- Clintonites know how to sugarcoat public cynicism spawning from raw arrogance of global fraud.

Consider Clinton's friend Terry McAullife, chairman of the imploding Democratic Party. He knows about globalist hanky-panky through his experience in trading shares of the since bankrupt telecommunications company, Global Crossing. These guys know how to "get away with it". But even Bill Clinton has to agree that his one-world vision, with all of its potential global con-artistry, stands contrary to political reality in the 21st Century.

Republicans, under President George W. Bush (a.k.a. Forty-three), seem to have gotten the "no-NWO" memo. Not once since inauguration on January 21, 2001 has any senior elected Republican repeated the phrase, "new world order". Regardless of how much the global elite attempted to discredit people who do not live in the global village (rather, we live in towns and cities across our country), Americans are now realizing how globalization threatens their freedom.

And insiders in the GOP, friends of this once-Republican-turned-Constitutionalist writer, have said there is a split, a deep struggle in the President's party. There are many Republicans who object to the surrender of national sovereignty. Then there are those (seeming lately to be in minority, though still holding key positions of GOP power) who still believe in the first Bush's NWO. The latter group, having largely been silenced, maintains their quiet hold on authority. But the former group is comprised of grass roots and cannot be ignored.

Simply put, no matter how much they admire the President, average Republican voters don't agree with open borders, unfair trade, or surrendering the Constitution to the UN. George W. Bush will not turn completely one hundred and eighty degrees against his supporters in an election cycle. And he may be having his own doubts about his father's "New World Order". There are signs of hope.

November 6, 2003

SAN FRANCISCO, A group of East Bay activists showed up at San Francisco movie theaters yesterday to distribute red pills, or New World Order matrix cards, to Matrix Revolutions’ moviegoers. The activists, known as Neo, Morpheus, Trinity and Agent Smith, hit the Loews and the Coronet theaters with exhortations for people to “take the red pill” and “learn about the REAL matrix that we live in”.

The cards list twenty websites where people can learn about the New World Order -- the World Bank, the neo-cons, privatization, militarization, enemy creation and the corporate media -- and how these bodies and agents are working for social and structural control the world and crafting the scenarios to make it happen.

People in the lines enthusiastically started reading the cards including a Trinity Trio, three women dressed in patent leather and dark sunglasses, who instantly got the connection between the movie and the cards. “Oh, we know we are living in another matrix. These are wonderful,” one Trinity said about the cards.

AUTOMATIC PILOT AND 9.11 - An expert’s opinion

The following is snipped from:

AUTOMATIC PILOT AND 9.11 - An expert’s opinion http://www.newsmakingnews.com/911automaticpilot.htm

A group of military and civilian US pilots, under the chairmanship of Colonel Donn de Grand, after deliberating non-stop for 72 hours, has concluded that the flight crews of the four passenger airliners, involved in the September 11th tragedy, had no control over their aircraft.

In a detailed press communiqué the inquiry stated: “The so-called terrorist attack was in fact a superbly executed military operation carried out against the USA, requiring the utmost professional military skill in command, communications and control. It was flawless in timing, in the choice of selected aircraft to be used as guided missiles and in the coordinated delivery of those missiles to their pre-selected targets.”

The report seriously questions whether or not the suspect hijackers, supposedly trained on Cessna light aircraft, could have located a target dead-on 200 miles from take off point. It further throws into doubt their ability to master the intricacies of the instrument flight rules (IFR) in the 45 minutes from take off to the point of impact. Colonel de Grand said that it would be impossible for novices to have taken control of the four aircraft and orchestrated such a terrible act requiring military precision of the highest order.

A member of the inquiry team, a US Air Force officer who flew over 100 sorties during the Vietnam war, told the press conference: “Those birds (commercial airliners) either had a crack fighter pilot in the left seat, or they were being maneuvered by remote control.”

In evidence given to the enquiry, Captain Kent Hill (retd.) of the US Air Force, and friend of Chic Burlingame, the pilot of the plane that crashed into the Pentagon, stated that the US had on several occasions flown an unmanned aircraft, similar in size to a Boeing 737, across the Pacific from Edwards Air Force base in California to South Australia. According to Hill it had flown on a pre programmed flight path under the control of a pilot in an outside station.

Suppressed Details of Criminal Insider Trading lead directly into the CIA`s Highest Ranks

CIA Executive Director "Buzzy" Krongard managed Firm that handled "put" Options on UAL

by Michael C. Ruppert
FTW Publications, 9 October 2001
Centre for Research on Globalisation, globalresearch.ca, 20 October 2001


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

Although uniformly ignored by the mainstream U.S. media, there is abundant and clear evidence that a number of transactions in financial markets indicated specific (criminal) foreknowledge of the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. That evidence also demonstrates that, in the case of at least one of these trades -- which has left a $2.5 million prize unclaimed -- the firm used to place the "put options" on United Airlines stock was, until 1998, managed by the man who is now in the number three Executive Director position at the Central Intelligence Agency. Until 1997 A.B. "Buzzy" Krongard had been Chairman of the investment bank A.B. Brown. A.B. Brown was acquired by Banker's Trust in 1997. Krongard then became, as part of the merger, Vice Chairman of Banker's Trust-AB Brown, one of 20 major U.S. banks named by Senator Carl Levin this year as being connected to money laundering. Krongard's last position at Banker's Trust (BT) was to oversee "private client relations." In this capacity he had direct hands-on relations with some of the wealthiest people in the world in a kind of specialized banking operation that has been identified by the U.S. Senate and other investigators as being closely connected to the laundering of drug money.

Israel 'faked al-Qaeda presence'

Israel insists al-Qaeda is operating in Gaza

Officials from the Palestinian Authority have accused the Israeli spy agency Mossad of setting up a fake al-Qaeda terrorist cell in Gaza.

Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat said that Israel had set up the mock cell in order to justify attacks in Palestinian areas.

Raanan Gissin, a spokesman for Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, called the allegation "sheer nonsense".

We are sure that Israel is behind this and that there are absolutely no groups such as al-Qaeda operating here

Colonel Rashid Abu-Shbak

On Thursday Mr Sharon said that members of Osama Bin Laden's al-Qaeda terror network were at work in the Gaza Strip, aiming to attack Israel.

Who says it was Al Qaeda ?

Lets look at the facts. On 25th October 2003 the CIA released statements that warned of 'imminent Al Qaeda' attacks in Saudi Arabia. ( see BBC report ). A few weeks later, BOOM. Either the CIA has infiltrated Al Qaeda so well, that they are able to tell when they will attack, or there is something fishy about this whole incident.

If the CIA did know about it, then clearly the information was coming from a source who would be pretty senior in Al Qaeda's network. Anyone who knows how the organisation works, would know, only those people who are DIRECTLY involved, have any knowledge about whats going to happen. This minimises the possibility of outsiders finding out.

Therefore the CIA's mole, must have been directly involved in the planning or execution of this terrorist act. If so, why didn't the CIA stop it ?

It has already been proven that the CIA and Mossad knew about 9/11. Indeed, Mossad had at least 5 agents filming the World Trade Centre at the time the planes flew into them ( see reports on wwviews or on other similar sites ). Yet no-one seemed to stop that act from occuring. Some would argue, the US and Israel had too much to lose by stopping the act. Yes, I did say lose.

They were willing to sacrifice some 3,000 lives, in exchange for the 500,000 they have taken in revenge wars on Iraq and Afghanistan. The 3,000 US lives were actually 'martyrs', who have helped the US gain lucrative oil and construction contracts in Iraq. They have helped Israel feel safer, as the US now control one of its main threats, in the shape of Iraq.

In any event, I don't want to lose focus, lets stick with the Riyadh bombings.

I have a very close friend who lives in Riyadh, in another compound. I was extremely relieved when I found they were safe, and teh bombings had happend at another compound. The relief immediately turned to suspicion when I was told, that word on the street in Saudi was that the US had staged the whole thing.

The bombs went off during the holy month of Ramadan.

They were set to explode at the time most muslims were getting up to pray and eat, in preparation for their daily fasting.

The compound itself is mainly home to Arab workers. Indeed the dead count reads as follows :

The Saudi ministry official said seven Lebanese, four Egyptians, one Saudi, one Sudanese and four unidentified people had been killed. The dead included five children.

There are 'foreigners' who have been injured, but Saudi news is stating that these are mainly foreign residents from the UK or US, who have Arab or South Asian origins. For example, a Pakistani, living in the UK, would have a UK passport, and when appropriate, would be a 'British' worker abroad. Even though they may have only lived in the UK for 5 years, and obtained a work permit. The Saudi ministry has said ' Four Americans of Arab origin and six Canadians were among the injured, whose countries of origin also included African and Asian states.' So in essence, no US or foreign citizens have been hurt or killed by this. Only other muslims.

The western media wants us to believe that Al Qaeda has now decided to kill its own, on its own land.

This is akin to the IRA planting bombs in Dublin city centre, to kill Irish people. Or for the Palestinians to send a suicide bomber to Arafats compound in Ramallah. Its simply not done.

Al-Qaeda is at the same time sold to the West as an 'Islamic' terrorist group. And it is at the same time expected to have killed other muslims, during the holiest month of the Islamic calender. There are many compounds in Saudi, but those that house 'real foreigners' are guarded with military tanks. This one wasn't because it housed Arabs and other muslims. These are NOT Al Qaeda targets. But we are told Al Qaeda must have done this.

Why would they do that ?

They quite simply wouldn't.

Who is to gain from this act of savagry ? Hmmm..lets take a guess ?

For a hint, why not look at the comments of U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage, who arrived in Riyadh on Sunday. Before any investigation has been conducted, or before the smoke has even cleared he told reporters:

"I can't say that last night's attack was the only or the last attack. My view is these al Qaeda terrorists -- and I believe it was al Qaeda -- would prefer to have many such events."

Convenient eh ?

Shocking images shame US forces

By Yvonne Ridley and Lawrence Smallman

Monday 10 November 2003, 0:46 Makka Time, 21:46 GMT


Fearful women and children are bound by US soldiers


A series of shocking pictures revealing US soldiers tying up Iraqi women and children in their own home has provoked international outrage.

The occupying forces have now come under renewed fire for their treatment of ordinary Iraqis as shown in the pictures published today by Aljazeera.net.

CAIR, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, is conducting an investigation and seeking advice before taking further action.

"This kind of image increases resentment of American troops in Iraq and can also play a major part in demoralising troops who are having to tie up small children.

"We are seeking to raise this issue further in the appropriate arena," said Washington CAIR spokesman Ibrahim Hooper.

A spokesman for the London-based Islamic Observation Centre said the pictures showed a "complete disregard for the human rights of the Iraqi people".

He added: "A normal human being should be repulsed by the very idea of tying up children.

Proč se radovalo pět Izraelců 11.září 2001 ?

5.11.2003
Neil Mackay

11. září 2001 po deváté hodině ráno. Z ruin v Manhattanu stoupá kouř a lidé jsou v šoku, ale na druhém břehu Hudson River v New Jersey zaznamenávají místní lidé skupinku tancujících mužů. Oslavují, smějí se a pilně celou událost natáčejí tak, jak se odvíjí před jejich očima.

Kdo jsou tito muži? Palestinci? Saudští Arabové? Iráčané? Nebo snad dokonce stoupenci al-Káidy? Samá voda. Byli to Izraelci. Zcela jistě nejméně dva z nich členové Mossadu.

Jejich akce to kritické ráno a následující zadržení je neoddiskutovatelným faktem. Těm, kteří vyšetřovali roli Izraelců toho dne, brzy dochází, že narazili na něco vážnějšího. Před jejich očima se začala rýsovat nejasná možnost, že izraelská rozvědka napomáhala únoscům al-Káidy při jejich postupu ze Středního východu do Evropy a z Evropy do Ameriky, kde absolvovali pilotní trénink a připravili se ke své sebevražedné misi: zasáhnout symbolické srdce Spojených států. A motiv? Ve jménu Izraele zatáhnout Ameriku do krvavého a společného utrpení.

Po útoku na New York a Washington byl bývalý izraelský předseda vlády Benjamin Netanyahu dotazován, co soudí o tom, jaký dopad bude mít tento teroristický čin na vztah Izraele s Amerikou. Řekl: "Je to velmi dobré." Pak se opravil: "Vlastně... není to dobré, ale vytvoří to pocit sounáležitosti a sympatií (prostých Američanů vůči Izraeli)."

Pocítí-li nejtěsnější přítel Izraele kolektivní bolest z masové smrti civilistů z rukou teroristů, vznikne nezlomitelné pouto mezi Izraelem a světovou supervelmocí. Izraeli to efektivně uvolní ruce při řešení jeho problémů s palestinskými teroristy vraždícími nevinné civilisty v intifádě pokračující v roce 2001.

Nepřekvapuje, že žena, která první spatřila pět civilistů a jejich dodávku, chce zůstat v anonymitě. Trvá na tom, abychom ji oslovovali pouze jako Marie. Po nárazu prvního letadla volal Marii soused bydlící ve stejném domě. Marie popadla dalekohled a - podobně jako miliony dalších po celém světě - sledovala horor, který se před jejíma očima odvíjel.

Marie si poznamenala SPZ a zavolala policii. Byla zalarmována FBI a brzy bylo vyhlášeno celostátní pátrání se žádostí o zadržení bílé dodávky a její posádky. Policie zjistila, že SPZ je registrována na firmu jménem Urban Moving.

Policejní šéf John Schmidig říká: "Dostali jsme hlášení, abychom pátrali po bílé dodávce značky Chevrolet s poznávací značkou z New Jersey a s nápisem po stranách. Svědkové zaznamenali tři jedince v parku Liberty State, jak oslavují a radují se po nárazu letadla. Radostí vyskakovali do výšky jako gumoví panáci."

Ve čtyři odpoledne téhož dne byla bílá dodávka spatřena v blízkosti Giants stadiónu v New Jersey. Policejní četa vůz zastavila. Uvnitř bylo pět mužů ve věku mezi dvaceti a třiceti. Všichni byli přinuceni vystoupit z vozu, byli spoutáni, zbraně policistů jim mířily na hlavy.

Ve voze bylo nalezeno 4700 dolarů v hotovosti, několik zahraničních pasů a dva řezače lepenkových krabic skrývající uvnitř ostří stejného typu, jaké použilo 19 únosců, kteří před několika hodinami narazilo do WTC a Pentagonu. Rovněž se ve voze našly právě zhotovené obrázky, na kterých pětice mužů pózuje na pozadí hořících trosek WTC. Na jednom obrázku držel jeden z mužů zapalovač v natažené ruce tak, že se kryl se základy hořící budovy v pozadí, takže to vypadalo, že chce věž podpálit. Řidič zatýkajícím policistům řekl: "Jsme Izraelci. My nejsme váš problém. Vaše problémy jsou vaše problémy. Palestinci jsou problém."

Muž, který to řekl, se jmenoval Sivan Kurzberg. Dalšími cestujícími byli Sivanův bratr Paul, Yaron Shmuel, Oded Ellner a Ormer Marmari. Všichni byli zadrženi a FBI je brzy předala do rukou FCS (Foreign Counterintelligence Section) kontrašpionážního oddělení.

Soudce nařídil prohlídku kanceláří firmy Urban Moving ve Weehawkenu v New Jersey. Policie zabavila řadu dokumentů a počítače. Rovněž vyslechla majitele firmy, muže s izraelským pasem jménem Dominik Otto Suter. Když se za několik dnů do firmy vrátila, aby položila doplňující otázky, pan Dominik zmizel. Zaměstnanec firmy popsal, jak se jeho kolegové 11. září smáli. "Byl jsem v slzách. A ti hoši kolem si z toho dělali vtipy. Opravdu se mě to dotklo. Chovali se způsobem, který naznačoval: 'Tak, teď Amerika dostala ochutnat ze stejné misky jako my. "

Bývalý šéf protiteroristického oddělení CIA Vince Cannistraro: "Varovná červená kontrolka se nám rozsvítila v hlavách, když jsme zjistili, že některá jména zadržených jsou na seznamu známých vyzvědačů. Mnoho kolegů se domnívalo, že alespoň někteří ze zadržených pracovali pro Mossad, a existovala spekulace, že firma Urban Moving byla zástěrkou. Kulisou, za kterou se měla skrýt operace proti radikálním muslimům."

Zdá se být jasné, že mezi americkými rozvědčíky nevzniklo ani nejmenší podezření, že by si Izraelci hráli do ruky s únosci z 11. září. Zůstává možnost, že věděli, co se chystá, ale neudělali nic, aby tomu zabránili.

Když se majitel firmy Urban Moving vypařil, kanceláře vypadaly jako by byly opuštěny v rychlosti. Všude se válely mobilní telefony, kancelářské telefonní linky byly stále zapojeny a ve skladištích se hromadil majetek nejméně tuctu zákazníků. Majitel vystěhoval i svůj dům v New Jersey a vrátil se do Izraele.

Dva týdny po zatčení byli Izraelci stále pod zámkem pro porušení imigračních předpisů. Pak soudce nařídil deportaci, jenže se do toho vložila CIA a podařilo se jí zajistit, aby zadrženi zůstali ve vězení další dva měsíce. Někteří dostali samotku, všichni však byli podrobeni dvěma testům na polygrafech. Jeden ze zadržených absolvoval takových výslechů sedm. Koncem listopadu bylo všech pět deportováno. Paul Kurzberg deset týdnů vzdoroval a nechtěl podstoupit výslech na detektoru lži. Když k němu konečně došlo, selhal. Jeho právník to zdůvodnil tím, že Paul kdysi pracoval ve výzvědných službách pro Izrael v nějaké jiné zemi.

Jejich právní zástupce Ram Horvitz nicméně označil všechna obvinění za "hloupá a nesmyslná". Ale americká vláda trvala na tom, že skupina sbírala informace o finančních aktivitách skupin jako jsou Hamas a islámský Jihad. Mark Regev z izraelského velvyslanectví ve Washingtonu všechno popřel s tím, že obvinění jsou "prostě falešná." Sami zadrženi vypovídali, že četli o útoku na WTC na Internetu, a protože z kanceláří nemohli vidět, vyšli na parkoviště. Jejich právník a izraelská ambasáda vysvětlili jejich zvrhlou a zlomyslnou oslavu při požáru věží, při kterém strašlivou smrtí zahynuly tisíce lidí, mladistvou nerozvážností.

V březnu 2002 napsal respektovaný židovský časopis The Forward, že obdrželi zprávu od americké administrativy ohledně závěrů vyšetřování pětice Izraelců. Bylo oznámeno, že Urban Moving byla Mossadem nastrčena firma, kde pracovali agenti Izraele. Podle FBI bylo úkolem agentů vyzvědět něco o místních Arabech. Zadrženi byli propuštěni, protože o jedenáctém září nevěděli nic.

V Izraeli proběhlo talk show, kde řada povolaných o celé záležitosti diskutovala. Jeden z diskutujících pronesl tento pozoruhodný komentář: "Podstatou té věci je, že žijeme v zemi, která takovéto útoky zažívá denně. Naším záměrem bylo tuto událost zdokumentovat."

Ale jak může někdo vědět, že chce zdokumentovat něco, o čem neví, že se to stane?

Teď jsme hluboko v konspirační teorii. Ale existuje více nepřímých důkazů, že Mossad, jenž má v mottu "Formou klamání vedeme válku" - sledoval arabské extrémisty v USA a mohl o útoku vědět. Přesto se rozhodl neinformovat své americké partnery, kteří by mohli útoku zabránit.

Po 11. září bylo na základě Patriot Act a imigračních zákonů zadrženo více než šedesát Izraelců. Jeden vysoce postavený vyšetřovatel sdělil Carlu Cameronovi z Fox News, že existovaly nitky spojení mezi Izraelem a událostí z 11. září. Bylo jasně naznačeno, že věděli, co se stane, ale podrželi si to pro sebe.

Zdroje z Fox News odmítly uvést bližší podrobnosti: "Jakékoliv důkazy ohledně 11. září jsou klasifikovány." Fox News není známá tím, že by odsuzovala Izrael. Je to robustní, patriotický kanál, vlastněný Robertem Murdochem, což je jeden z hlavních zastánců války proti teroru a invaze do Iráku.

Ještě před jedenáctým zářím byla v rámci širokého vyšetřování podezření ze špionáže zadržena jiná skupina 140 Izraelců žijících v USA a řízena z Izraele. Vládní dokumenty hovoří o skupině jako o "organizované operaci zaměřené na získání informací a se snahou o proniknutí do vládních objektů." Většina zadržených sloužila v izraelské armádě, ale na tom není nic zvláštního - vojenská služba je v Izraeli povinná. Nicméně řada z nich pracovala v tajných službách.

První náznaky izraelské výzvědné aktivity se objevily na jaře 2001, když FBI rozeslala všem federálním agenturám oběžník varující před návštěvníky, kteří se představují jako "studenti umění z Izraele" a pokoušejí se proniknout přes vrátnice federálních budov s vysvětlením, že prodávají obrazy. Zpráva DEA Drug Enforcement Administration naznačuje, že tyto pokusy mohou být organizovanou snahou sběru informací. V dokumentech se uvádí, že cílem Izraelců byly vládní objekty včetně tajných, a dokonce i soukromé domy s nikde neuváděnými adresami pracovníků výzvědných a bezpečnostních služeb.

Řada zadržených izraelských studentů vypověděla, že studovali na Bezalel Academy of Art and Design, ale mluvčí školy, paní Pnina Calpenová řekla, že jména zadržených se nevyskytují v seznamech školy za posledních deset let. Federální zpráva o těchto tzv. studentech uvádí, že mnozí sloužili v bezpečnostních službách a mají znalosti v oboru práce s odposlouchávacími zařízeními.

Zpráva uvádí, že agenti Mossadu sledovali Mohammeda Attu a Marwana al-Shehi - dva vůdce únosců. Dvojice nejprve žila v Hamburku, kde byl nasazen jiný tým Mossadu. Později se usadila ve floridském Hollywoodu spolu se třemi dalšími únosci velmi blízko od místa, kde operoval jiný tým Mossadu.

Hollywood na Floridě je městečko o 25 tisících duší. Zpráva francouzské výzvědné služby praví, že vůdce buňky Mossadu si pronajal byt hned v sousedství Atty a al-Shehiho. Více než třetina izraelských "studentů umění" uvedla jako bydliště Floridu. Dva jiní Izraelci, spojeni s kruhem umělců, se objevili ve Fort Laudedale. Jednu dobu žilo osm únosců na sever od města.

Vezmeme-li v úvahu všechna známá fakta, zdá se, že Izrael věděl, že se připravuje útok na WTC, nebo alespoň nějaký útok na americké půdě, ale neudělal nic, aby americkou stranu varoval. Ale to není tak úplně přesné. V srpnu 2001 předal Izrael Americe seznam podezřelých teroristů. Na seznamu byli čtyři, kteří se zúčastnili sebevražedného útoku. Podstatné ale zůstává, že varování hovoří o plánovaném útoku "mimo Spojené státy."

Izraelské velvyslanectví ve Washingtonu odmítlo tvrzení o výzvědné skupině jako "smyšlenku". To stejné popření slyšíme opakovaně od pěti zadržených Izraelců, kteří se tak radovali při zkáze WTC. Jejich obhájce Ram Horwitz trval na tom, že jeho klienti nejsou výzvědnými důstojníky. Ministryně zahraničí Irit Stofferová řekla, že "obvinění jsou naprosto nepravdivá." Doplnila, že muži byli zajištěni z důvodu porušení vízových předpisů a že vyšetřování FBI takové případy po 11. září vyšetřuje běžně.

Mluvčí FBI Jim Margolin v New Yorku řekl, že veřejnost se nikdy nedozví pravdu: "Pokud bychom zjistili důkazy o nedovolených výzvědných aktivitách, pak by to byly klasifikované materiály." Ale podle amerických zdrojů je o Izraeli dlouho známo, že provádí uvnitř USA nejagresivnější špionáž proti USA ze všech jeho spojenců. Před sedmnácti lety byl odsouzen na doživotí Jonathan Pollard, civilista pracující pro americké námořnictvo. Byl usvědčen z předávání tajných materiálů Izraeli. Nejprve Izrael označil Pollardovo zatčení za ničemnou akci, později přiznal zodpovědnost.

Existuje dlouhodobá nepsaná dohoda mezi spojenci jako Británie a USA nebo USA a Izrael, že jejich vlády nebudou zavírat "přátelské špióny," ani nebudou zahanbovat spojeneckou zemi obviněním ze špionáže. Zkušený analytik z Bostonské Asociace politických reserší a odborník na výzvědné služby říká: "Je to dohoda o zadních vrátkách mezi spojenci. V té dohodě se praví, že je-li jeden z tvých špiónů chycen, a neudělal-li příliš mnoho škod, jede domů. Oficiálním důvodem je vždy porušení vízových předpisů."

Zůstala nám fakta podložena dvojsmyslným vysvětlením. Zdá být jisté, že Izrael vyzvídal na území Spojených států. A stejně tak je jisté, že objektem jeho zájmů byly islámské extrémistické skupiny, pravděpodobně napojené na 11. září. Ale věděl Izrael, že WTC bude zasaženo a svět bude uvržen do války bez konce? Válka, která umožnila Izraeli zaútočit na své nepřátele s libovolnou tvrdostí? I to je konspirace. Možná zacházející příliš daleko. Ale ten nepříjemný pocit, že v této době plné vytáček, polopravd a utajení nevíme úplnou a nepozměněnou pravdu, přetrvává. Můžeme hádat. Je na historických knihách to objevit a rozhodnout.

Arrested oil tycoon passed shares to banker

LONDON (Agence France-Presse) — Control of Mikhail Khodorkovsky's shares in the Russian oil giant Yukos have passed to renowned banker Jacob Rothschild, under a deal they concluded prior to Mr. Khodorkovsky's arrest, the Sunday Times reported.

Voting rights to the shares passed to Mr. Rothschild, 67, under a "previously unknown arrangement" designed to take effect in the event that Mr. Khodorkovsky could no longer "act as a beneficiary" of the shares, it said.

Pentagon reportedly aids and abets Israeli government terrorism in Iraq.

Reportedly, the Israeli Mossad set the bomb that went off in Najaf August 7th, killing the Shia leader Ayatollah Mohammad Baqer al-Hakim along with 80 some bystanders, injuring a further 229.

Of course, I don't know if it is true, but it is within the realm of possibility, though conventional wisdom, as narrow thinking is often called, rejects such notions, no matter what the facts may be. It is taken as a clear and obvious case of "conspiracy theorism" to say Israel and the Pentagon might do such things and rejected with the jerk of the knee, no matter what the evidence. Conspiracy theories focussing on Iran or Baathists or Al Qaeda are embraced with the jerk of the knee, no matter what the evidence.

And the Anti-Defamation League is on top of things! These Zionist apologists who spy on Americans, passing the collected info to various police agencies, claimed the story was anti-Semitic! No surprise there, I suppose. Notice that it is automatically anti-Semitism, without evidence or explantation, if you say Israel did a bad thing, but it does not constitute, say, anti-Persianism, apparently, if you say Iran did a bad thing. Israel is above criticism and the memory of dead Holocaust victims can be deployed, cynically, if such criticism is made. I would reiterate the ADL people do not provide evidence that the report is motivated by anti-Semitism. The reader is meant to assume it is true, I guess.

We forfeit three-fourths of ourselves to be like other people.
