US trying to provoke war with Iran

"The Insider" mailing list article, 01 July 2004.

The US military is trying to start a war with Iran, and they have been caught trying to use the UK to do the dirty work for them.

In July last year the US military commander in Iraq ordered thousands of British troops to launch a full-scale attack on Iranian positions at the border with Iran. If the British commander had not broken the chain of command by blocking the orders, it is likely that the allies would now be at war with Iran.

The US has tried to use the UK to trigger conflicts in the past. Last time, during the Balkans war in the 1990s, the British commander, Gen Jackson, refused to attack Russian positions, and is quoted as protesting: "I am not going to start World War Three for you." The US could have engaged the enemy themselves on both occasions when the UK refused, but apparently they would prefer to wait until somebody else is stupid enough to do the dirty-work for them.

A recent open memorandum published by the Project for the New American Century under the title "Regime Change for Iran" makes it clear what the agenda is for Iran. PNAC is a powerful group which claims to "advise" the US government on policy and strategy, but its members actually happen to be the decision-makers themselves.

Iran is currently surrounded by American and British forces on both sides, with US-occupied Iraq on its Western border and US-occupied Afghanistan on its Eastern border.

Daily Telegraph (UK), "Attack Iran, US chief ordered British"

America's military commander in Iraq ordered British troops to prepare a full-scale ground offensive against Iranian forces that had crossed the border and grabbed disputed territory, a senior officer has disclosed.

An attack would almost certainly have provoked open conflict with Iran. But the British chose instead to resolve the matter through diplomatic channels.
"If we had attacked the Iranian positions, all hell would have broken loose," a defence source said yesterday.
"We would have had the Iranians to our front and the Iraqi insurgents picking us off at the rear."
The incident was disclosed by a senior British officer at a conference in London last week and is reported in today's edition of Defence Analysis. The identity of the officer is not given.
"Some Iranian border and observation posts were re-positioned over the border, broadly a kilometre into Iraq," a Ministry of Defence spokesman said.
The incident began last July when Revolutionary Guards pushed about a kilometre into Iraq to the north and east of Basra in an apparent attempt to reoccupy territory which they claimed belonged to Iran.
Lt Gen Ricardo Sanchez then ordered the British to prepare to send in several thousand troops to attack the Revolutionary Guard positions.
The Revolutionary Guard Corps has 125,000 soldiers, making it 25 per cent larger than the entire British Army, and is equipped with 500 tanks, 600 armoured personnel carriers and 360 artillery weapons.
The incident is reminiscent of the exchange during the Kosovo conflict between the American general, Wesley Clark, the supreme allied commander Europe, and Gen Sir Mike Jackson, the British commander.
When Gen Clark told Gen Jackson to send British troops into Pristina airport to prevent Russian troops from taking control Gen Jackson refused. He was reported to have said: "I am not going to start World War Three for you."
The Iran-Iraq incident lasted around a week and was resolved by a telephone conversation between Jack Straw, the Foreign Secretary, and Kamal Kharrazi, his Iranian counterpart, British officials said.
"It did look rather nasty at the time," one official said. "But we were always confident it was a mistake and could be resolved by diplomatic means. We got in touch with Baghdad and said, 'Don't do anything silly; we are talking to the Iranians.' "
While Mr Straw was trying to resolve the issue peacefully, British military commanders on the ground were calming their Iranian counterparts, the ministry said.
The Revolutionary Guard was believed to be behind the seizure of eight Royal Navy and Royal Marines personnel last week after they strayed across the disputed border between Iraq and Iran.
The eight men, who were delivering patrol boats to the Iraqi riverine patrol service, were released - but not before they were paraded blindfolded on Iranian television.

We would like to draw your attention to the following op-ed by Michael McFaul and Abbas Milani in yesterday's Wall Street Journal ("Solidarity with Iran"). In the face of Iranian clerics' assault on the democratic process leading up to Iran's recent parliamentary elections, the authors argue that it is time for the Bush administration to demonstrate that its commitment to democracy in the Middle East extends to U. S. policy toward Iran.

Washington, DC, Jul. 2 (UPI) -- As the Bush Administration concludes it cannot risk Iranian retaliation against a fragile Iraq under U.S. occupation, Israel is dusting off contingency plans to take out Iran's nuclear installations.
...
A U.S. House of Representatives resolution last May 6 authorized "all appropriate means" to put an end to Iranian nuclear weapons development. The Senate is yet to vote on the resolution. But it leaves no doubt it is a green light for an offensive military strikes against Iran's three nuclear facilities.
The worldwide reaction against a U.S. attack on Iran's theocratic regime would almost certainly put an end to growing moderate dissent. Rival Shiite and Sunni Muslims in Iraq, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain (headquarters for the U.S. 5th Fleet) would close ranks against U.S. interests. America's allies would denounce a return to dangerous U.S. unilateralism after President Bush's recent moves back to multilateral diplomacy.

QUESTIONS FOR MICHAEL MOORE!

"Fahrenheit 9/11" is a powerful antiwar statement and needs to be
supported for that reason. This coming election, we need to vote out
the warhawks, both Republican and Democrat.

However, I would like to ask Michael Moore a few questions regarding
his implication that Saudi Arabia was behind 9-11.

Question 1: If Saudi Arabia were behind 9-11, why didn't they
leave the United States BEFORE the attack? It is an established fact
that companies like Odigo received an advance warning of the 9-11 attacks
before the hijacked planes had even left the ground, as reported
in Ha'Aretz and the Washington Post. If the Saudis were behind 9-11
and were kind enough to warn Odigo, then why did they themselves wait
until AFTER the attacks before they left, when the requirement for
special permission from Bush would only call attention to their departure?

Question 2: Is Michael Moore aware that the video tape of Osama "confessing" to 9-11 has been
proven a fake?

Question 3: Is Michael Moore aware that just ten days after
9-11, the FBI stated (and CNN reported) that the 9-11 perpetrators were using skillfully made fake IDs
with identities stolen from Arab men?

Question 4: Is Michael Moore aware that FBI Director Robert Mueller has admitted in public that
there is actually no evidence that proves the named 9-11 hijackers
were actually on the aircraft?

Question 5: Calling attention to the Anthrax letters case,
in which letters which appeared to to be written by Arab Muslims contained
Anthrax spores identified as coming from a US Government laboratory. Is Michael Moore aware
that neither of the two suspects in the case, Dr. Stephen Hatfill
or Dr.Philip Zack, are Arabs, and doesn't this case prove that Arabs
are being framed for terror attacks in the United States?

Michael Moore rightly condemns the US Government for the USAPATRIOT
act's draconian assault opon our rights. However, one of those rights
is that nobody shall be declared guilty of a crime without proof beyond
a reasonable doubt. As Michael Moore professes a deep respect for
American values, he should not glibly declare that someone is guilty
of a crime without being able to make his case beyond that reasonable
doubt.

There is a reasonable doubt.

And if Michael Moore is a reasonable man who respects American principles, he must acknowledge that.

Ridge: Alert Level Stays At Yellow Despite Threat

Homeland Security Chief Says 'Credible' Intel Points To Large-Scale Attack

POSTED: 10:51 am EDT July 8, 2004
UPDATED: 6:50 pm EDT July 8, 2004
WASHINGTON -- Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge said Thursday that al-Qaida is actively working to disrupt the November elections.

"Credible reporting now indicates al-Qaida is moving forward with plans to carry out a large-scale attack in the United States to affect the democratic process," Ridge said at a Thursday morning briefing.

He said it's clear that al-Qaida has the capability to carry out such an attack.

"They also hold the mistaken belief that their attacks will have an impact on the American resolve," he said.

Ridge said the intelligence community is lacking knowledge as to a time, method or place for an attack. He said agents are "actively working" to answer those questions.

With Bush trailing in the polls, who BENEFITS from disrupted elections?

And as yourself this; even if there WERE a terrorist attack, why should it interfere with elections other than in the immediate area of the attack? Why would it be necessary to alter or cancel the entire election, as opposed to simply allowing the polls to remain open for a few extra days in the affected area?

And why would "terrorists" (nudge nudge wink wink) care about the elections, with both Bush and Kerry committed to wars and Israel?

Is there anyone who can make a credible argument that this "terror threat" isn't originating within the White House itself?

WMD may never be found - Blair

Blair: Not run out of steam

Tony Blair has said Iraq's weapons of mass destruction "may never be found".

Mr Blair said he had "to accept we haven't found them and we may never find them" - but that did not mean Saddam Hussein had not been a threat.

He said the former Iraqi leader had been in breach of UN resolutions and his weapons may have been "removed, hidden or destroyed".

Mr Blair also said US security concerns had to be tackled before British detainees at Guantanamo Bay are freed.

'Clear evidence'

The prime minister was being grilled by senior MPs in his twice-yearly appearance before the Commons liaison committee.

His comments come eight days before an inquiry reports on the pre-war intelligence about Iraq's weapons.

He said Saddam Hussein had previously had weapons of mass destruction and there was "very clear evidence" of his desire to develop and use them.



But he added: "I have to accept we haven't found them and we may never find them, We don't know what has happened to them.

"They could have been removed. They could have been hidden. They could have been destroyed."

Police Begin Random Bus Searches In Londonderry

The MURC Channel | July 7 2004

LONDONDERRY, N.H. -- Airline passengers go through security searches, and now, so do some bus passengers.

Police in Londonderry started random searches of bus riders headed from New Hampshire to Boston Wednesday morning. Specially trained dogs were used to search luggage and passengers for explosives.

The searches are in preparation for the Democratic National Convention to be held at the end of the month in Boston. Random searches will be conducted on all buses that pass through the Park and Ride lots.

"The bottom line is that when you purchase a ticket on the bus, you consent to having your belongings searched, but we're looking to have this be a very cooperative venture," Londonderry police Capt. Bill Hart said.

Concord Trailways said it has concerns about the impact on the schedule, but officials said passengers seem to appreciate the extra security.

"I think it's going to make them feel safer," Concord Trailways Vice President Ken Hunter said.

Bilderberg 'performance' key to Edwards VP pick

'He reported back directly to Kerry' said participant in super-secret conference

Posted: July 8, 2004
2:49 a.m. Eastern


© 2004 WorldNetDaily.com


Sen. John Edwards, D-N.C.

Sen. John Edwards' standout "performance" at the super-secret Bilderberg meeting in Italy last month may have been a key reason for his selection as John Kerry's vice presidential running mate, according to the New York Times.

The 50th anniversary conference of the elite group – which many believe conspires semi-annually to foster global government – met June 3 through June 6 in Stresa, Italy, at the Grand Hotel des Iles Borromees.

Among the attendees from the U.S., according to a list obtained by WND, were Senators John Edwards, D-N.C. and Jon Corzine, D-N.J., Henry Kissinger, Richard Perle, Melinda Gates (wife of Bill Gates), David Rockefeller, Timothy F. Geithner, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Donald Graham, chairman and CEO of the Washington Post Company, and even Ralph Reed, former head of the Christian Coalition.

(Here is the entire Bilderberg attendance list as published previously by WND. http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=38783 )

According to a report in yesterday's New York Times http://www.nytimes.com/2004/07/07/politics/campaign/07tick.html?ex=1089777600&en=31c906f2640be40c&ei=5062&partner=GOOGLE by Jody Wilgoren, analyzing why Kerry chose Edwards over the other 24 serious contenders for the No. 2 spot:

Several people pointed to the secretive and exclusive Bilderberg conference of some 120 people that this year drew the likes of Henry A. Kissinger, Melinda Gates and Richard A. Perle to Stresa, Italy, in early June, as helping win Mr. Kerry's heart. Mr. Edwards spoke so well in a debate on American politics with the Republican Ralph Reed that participants broke Bilderberg rules to clap before the end of the session. Beforehand, Mr. Edwards traveled to Brussels to meet with NATO officials, brandishing his foreign-policy credentials.

"His performance at Bilderberg was important," said a friend of Mr. Kerry who was there. "He reported back directly to Kerry. There were other reports on his performance. Whether they reported directly or indirectly, I have no doubt the word got back to Mr. Kerry about how well he did."

Since 1953, the Bilderberg group has convened government, business, academic and journalistic representatives from the U.S., Canada and Europe with the express purpose of exploring the future of the North Atlantic community.

According to sources that have penetrated the high-security meetings in the past, the Bilderberg meetings emphasize a globalist agenda and promote the idea that the notion of national sovereignty is antiquated and regressive.

'Shadowy aura'

"It's officially described as a private gathering," noted a BBC report last year, "but with a guest list including the heads of European and American corporations, political leaders and a few intellectuals, it's one of the most influential organizations on the planet."

And according to aBBC report on June's conference in Stresa: "Not a word of what is said at Bilderberg meetings can be breathed outside. No reporters are invited in and while confidential minutes of meetings are taken, names are not noted. The shadowy aura extends further – the anonymous answerphone message, for example; the fact that conference venues are kept secret. The group, which includes luminaries such as Henry Kissinger and former UK chancellor Kenneth Clarke, does not even have a website."

But, counter participants, the secrecy is not evidence of a grand conspiracy, but only an opportunity to speak frankly with other world leaders out of the limelight of press coverage and its inevitable repercussions.

"There's absolutely nothing in it," argues the UK's Lord Denis Healey, one of the four founders of Bilderberg. "We never sought to reach a consensus on the big issues at Bilderberg," he told the BBC. "It's simply a place for discussion."

Domnívám se, že k dalšímu jedenáctému září zatím nedojde
Vladimír Stwora
5.7.2004

Několikrát jsem zde vyjadřoval obavy, že Bush zahnaný do kouta se bude bránit. Že bude-li směřovat k volebnímu debaklu, nebude se rozpakovat vyvolat další "teroristický útok" nejspíše na americkém území, nastolit stanné právo, zrušit ústavu a poslat armádu proti vlastním lidem.

Bush k volebnímu debaklu nejspíše směřuje. Ale přesto se začínám domnívat, že "teroristé" do voleb nezaútočí. Vyjádřit to číselně, řekl bych, že s pravděpodobností jedna ku dvěma. Stále ještě existuje těch 33 procent, může mu prdnout v bedně, šílený je na to dost, ale udělá-li to, bude to mít chlapec těžké.

O víkendu jsem shlédl Moorův film Fahrenheit 9/11. Tak ostře propagandistický film jsem už dlouho neviděl. Moore skutečně nenechal na Bushovi nitku suchou. Film je v podstatě mistrná slepenina retrospektivních záběrů, přičemž střih je komponován s jedinou myšlenkou: postavit do ostrého světla rozpory v tom, co Bush říká a jak koná. Muselo to dát práce, projít kilometry a kilometry starších záznamů a vybrat z nich kousky tak, aby později formulovaly jasnou myšlenku, totiž že Bush je lump a lže.

V březnu vyšla ve Spojených státech kniha Richarda Clarka Proti všem (Against all enemies). Ani Clark, podobně jako Moore, si nebere servítek. Usvědčuje Bushe a jeho tým sekerníků z inkompetence, nedostatku předvídavosti, ze slepé posedlosti Irákem.

Co má společného Moorův film s Clarkovou knihou? Obě díla jsou ostře protibushovská. Obě díla naznačují, že důvodem agrese byly zájmy ropných a vojenských lobby. Obě díla slepě akceptují oficiální verzi jedenáctého září. Bez nejmenších pochyb.

A hlavně obě díla úplně ignorují skutečnost, že existuje nějaký stát Izrael. A že nelze porozumět dění uplynulých let bez jeho role.

Jak je to možné? Clark není hlupák. Slyšel jsem ho mluvit v televizi. Hovoří (na rozdíl od vládnoucí garnitury) koherentně, logicky, je vidět, že je inteligentní. Ani Moore není žádný blbec.

Mohla by Clarkova kniha vyjít, kdyby v ní poukázal na stopy vedoucí k Mossadu? Mohl by Moorův film být natočen, kdyby naznačil, že za útokem z 11. září možná nejsou Arabové? Domnívám se, že ani jedno dílo by nebylo uvolněno do distribuce.

A to mě přivádí k jiné myšlence. Totiž, že jak Clarkova kniha, tak Moorův film možná nevznikly náhodou jako nějaký zoufalý výkřik pravdy, ale na objednávku. Jinými slovy, skuteční vládcové Ameriky už Bushe odepsali. Obětovali ho. Bush udělal, co udělat měl. Z hlediska Izraele byla akce v Iráku skvělý úspěch. Znamenala zničení nepřítele, kterého se bál, vyvolání chaosu na Středním východě, odvedení pozornosti od genocidy prováděné na Palestincích a konečně i tu ropu pro USA (a tedy pro Izrael). Je čas, aby šel. Příliš se při tom ušpinil. Zprofanoval se. Je třeba ho vyměnit. A ostatně izraelská lobby už má za něj důstojného nástupce. Dokud nebylo jasné, kdo bude místo něj, museli se ho držet. Nebezpečí, že by se do úřadu dostal někdo, kdo by neskákal, jak oni pískají, pominulo, a není už žádný důvod, aby při Bushovi setrvali.

Samozřejmě stále ještě existuje těch třicet procent pravděpodobností, že Bush podnikne něco na vlastní pěst, ale udělá-li to, podřeže si sám větev, na které sedí. Bez podpory sionistů nemá jeho akce příliš naději na úspěch.

Podezřelí z teroristického útoku na vlak v Madridu mají vazby na bezpečnostní služby
(23.6.04)

Vyšetřovatelé teroristického útoku z 11. března na vlak v Madridu přiznali, že dva ze tří podezřelých z dodání výbušnin pro akci byli vlastně policejní informátoři.

Abychom byli konkrétní, první podezřelý Rafa Zouhier byl informátorem elitní jednotky Unidad Central de Operaciones (UCO) a druhý podezřelý Jose Emilio Suarez Trashorras byl zase na výplatní pásce Cuerpo Nacional de Policia del jefe de la Brigada de Estupefacientes de Aviles, specializující se na boj s narkotiky.

A abychom tomu nasadili korunu, pak je třeba vědět, že u Trashorrase se navíc našlo telefonní číslo šéfa Tedaxu, pana Manzana. Tedax je zvláštní policejní jednotka se specializaci na výbušniny a bomby všeho druhu. Tato jednotka vlastně deaktivovala jednu nastraženou a nevybuchlou bombu z onoho osudného rána.

Je zvláštní, že některá hlavní média sice zmínila obě jména v krátkých článcích kdesi na konci listů, ale žádné z nich neuvedlo tento důležitý detail.
