UPDATE: Osama bin Laden

‘The Killing of Osama bin Laden’ by Seymour M. Hersh

And again here …

Seymour Hersh: ‘Obama’s Entire Account Of bin Laden’s Death Is One Big Lie; This Is What Really Happened’

Osama bin Laden Capture

Osama bin Laden Capture

Headlines like those above are being posted and re-posted on Facebook and elsewhere by many disillusioned Mainstream Media-Types like Mark Levin and Wayne Allen Root since it is considered safe territory because Sey Hersh is a major Mainstream Media guy himself.  This is not to say I don’t like or appreciate Levin, Root or Hersh, but like so many making a real living reporting the ‘news’, they dare not walk too far off the beaten path else-wise they be labeled kooks or labeled with the CIA created weaponized term ‘Conspiracy Theorists’.  It is safe waters to follow Hersh into the lies of Obama concerning the killing of Osama bin Laden, but no further.

Hersh’s articles above represent just another important data point, but let us not dismiss the existence of other evidence that Osama bin Laden had died prior to the Navy Seal assault on Abbottabad and that there is exactly zero physical evidence he was killed by the US at all. We also should remember that Osama was at one time a CIA asset and was paid $3 billion of your tax dollars to fight the Russians in Afghanistan. Many think Osama continued as a CIA asset even after the Russians withdrew hostilities in Afghanistan. It is also important to realize that other than the geopolitical importance of Afghanistan and of giving the Russians their Vietnam, Opium is key. The opium trade since the US takeover of Afghanistan has grown from 10% to an estimated 80% of the world’s supply; and that it is a documented fact that US military are on the ground in Afghanistan protecting the opium fields and production that once belonged to the Russians. It is also a fact that the CIA has a long history of supplementing its US-funded black budget with illegal drug trafficking. And one last nagging question: If Osama bin Laden was in fact head of Al-Qaeda, and in fact it was Al-Qaeda who attacked the U.S. on 9/11, why would the Navy Seals be ordered to kill the greatest potential source of intelligence on Al-Qaeda and the attacks of 9/11? None of this passes the smell test. It is a documented fact that Al-Qaeda is a creation of the U.S. and the forensics of the 9/11 attack have been hidden and subverted by top levels in the U.S. Government. The 9/11 Commission report is blatantly false and a whitewash. Further, there is great evidence that the House of Saud assisted U.S. Officials in the attacks on 9/11.

And one must wonder why after documenting lie after lie from Obama, Hersh ends this article with the following Obama complement on Iran, while shifting some blame onto conservative Republicans in Congress :

“Obama today is not facing re-election as he was in the spring of 2011. His principled stand on behalf of the proposed nuclear agreement with Iran says much, as does his decision to operate without the support of the conservative Republicans in Congress. High-level lying nevertheless remains the modus operandi of US policy, along with secret prisons, drone attacks, Special Forces night raids, bypassing the chain of command, and cutting out those who might say no.”

Very bizarre to say the least.

Though we know the U.S. Government runs on lies and propaganda, it’s refreshing to see that none of this nonsense fools the intrepid and brilliant Paul Craig Roberts…

Seems that PCR is one of the few who have finally put down the official government Kool-Aid, drank a little coffee and looked over the ‘Walled-Garden’ of politics within which so many voluntary place themselves.

Small progress, but progress none the less.

Other background NFO:
Oops… uh oh…  guess Obama lost some eye witnesses to the bin Laden killing.

ABC NEWS (Aug. 6, 2011) : “A helicopter was shot down today by Afghan insurgents as it was rushing to aid troops in a firefight, killing 30 Americans, including 22 Navy SEALs, most of whom belonged to Team 6, the unit whose members were involved in the raid that killed Osama bin Laden, U.S. officials said.” 30 Americans Killed Including 22 SEALs When Afghan Insurgents Shoot Down Helicopter

9/11 Revisited

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | April 3, 2015

If you are like me, you found the conclusions of the official 9/11 Commission Report hard to believe.   Why? Because it seemed implausible that two airplanes could bring down two skyscrapers in such a nice, even pattern. Reminded me of all the controlled demolition videos I had watched with amazement prior to 9/11. The 9/11 demolition was picture perfect, and something just wasn’t right. After my initial shock, I was surprised to discover that building #7 fell in just the same way, only it was never hit by a plane. I was even more shocked when I learned that most New Yorkers were unaware that building #7 wasn’t hit by a plane. I would hope that most New Yorkers know by now.  There is overwhelming detailed scientific evidence –that I won’t bore you with right now– which proves the official story is not plausible. You can do your own research if you feel the need.

So here we have three buildings taken down by two planes.  Reminds me of the JFK magic bullet theory, and since the US Government has a long, documented history of lying to the American public, I wasn’t buying their official story without some hard evidence. Videos were confiscated and evidence was shipped to China to be melted down; SEC records were destroyed. The US Government destroyed as much evidence as it could before any real investigation could even be suggested; and before the general population smelled a rat; and in fact NIST, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, was the government agency assigned to investigate the building collapses participated in this government cover-up. NIST likely committed many criminal acts, though was never prosecuted …

Exposing the Criminal Cover-Up of 9/11 – Review of David Ray Griffin: The Mysterious Collapse of World Trade Center 7

I could go on and on with the physical evidence, but even without any of the physical evidence we have insider evidence from whistle-blower Sibel Edmonds in her excellent book entitled ‘Classified Woman’ that proves to me that top FBI officials were also in on the cover-up. And now we have the redacted 28 pages of the 9/11 Report that supposedly implicates Saudi Arabia though no one can give specifics since this information is part of the National Security ruse.  My concern is that if the 9/11 report can’t be trusted, why can we now trust the missing 28 pages?  Is this yet another layer to confound those in search for the truth?

9/11 was  a pivotal event which provided the US Government vast and far-reaching, unconstitutional powers over the good citizens of America and unfortunately many of America’s vassal states have emulated this abuse of their citizen’s rights. What were once rights are now privileges to be doled-out at the whim of a new tyrannical government.   It made it easy to pass the Constitution-killing ‘Patriot Act’ and NDAA authorizing the government to indefinitely detain or murder its citizens without due process; and it has opened the financial flood gates for undeclared and illegal wars across the globe.  It has ushered in the police state with the help of the DHS and removed any expectation of privacy by the NSA.  So who benefited from 9/11? Not the 3,000 who lost their lives or their families. Not the average American citizen. Not the US Constitution or Bill of Rights.  The Government benefited with new powers and the Military-Industrial Complex benefited. Who else? Well the planners at the Pentagon who get their instructions from the likes of the CFR, RIIA, GCHQ, and the Trilateral Commission. In fact, these same folks got their dream (documented in PNAC) for a ‘New American Pearl Harbor’ to help move their agenda along quicker.

In case you haven’t seen these videos, I think you might want to take a look for yourselves…

VIDEO 1: We blew up our Pentagon with a cruise missile. We have it on video…here’s the video and a pic of the missile. The gray object above the Orange Cone on the right. The little gray object is supposed to be a 43′ high 757. It is not. Frames at 24,25, and 26 seconds…

Plane Hits The Pentagon

VIDEO 2: There is another angle from down the street at the Hilton.
NEW: 9/11 Hotel Video Released of NO PLANE hitting the Pentagon!

VIDEO 3: 9/11 – The Truth In 5 Minutes – James Corbett

VIDEO 4:  Excellent film from James Corbett: 9/11 Trillions: Follow The Money
(Published Sep 11, 2015)

“Forget for one moment everything you’ve been told about September 11, 2001. 9/11 was a crime. And as with any crime, there is one overriding imperative that detectives must follow to identify the perpetrators: follow the money. This is an investigation of the 9/11 money trail.”

Until America and the world fully realize that 9/11 was an inside job, there is little hope we can turn back the tyranny and global wars that have engulfed planet earth as a result of this villainy.

America: The Greatest Force for Good?

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | March 29, 2015

us-flag-301171_640I use to believe that despite America’s many mistakes, that fundamentally she was a good country.  I use to believe the history I learned in America’s state controlled class rooms.  I use to believe that our armed forces were fighting to protect us and to spread democracy.  But then 9/11 happened and the war on terror was launched to protect Americans from these very evil and bad people…  so I started paying attention.  I noticed that despite our war on terror, the US Federal government encouraged open borders and didn’t seem to care to discover who came or who left the country.  Could another terrorist get in?  I then discovered that 15 of the 19 so called hijackers were from America’s ally Saudi Arabia, yet we attacked Iraq and Afghanistan neither of whom attacked us.   I was told that an evil group called Al-Qaeda were behind the attack on 9/11, but then I discovered that Al-Qaeda was created by our own CIA and that we gave $3 billion to its leader Osama bin Laden to fight the Russians in Afghanistan.  The more I read, the more I double and triple-checked my fact-checking of the information of the official 9/11 story.  The more I fact-checked and read, the more I realized that the official story was not even physically possible; yet the official story was told over and over again in our media.  So I continued to read and I discovered that the 9/11 story wasn’t the first time our government and media lied to us.  They lied to get us into the Vietnam War which cost the lives of over 58,000 of my fellow Americans and over 3 million innocent men, woman and children in the countries we bombed and sprayed with Agent Orange.  All of this was based on lies by the US Government and supported by the establishment media which owned the TV content I dutifully watched every day to stay informed.

Since these more innocent times, I have discovered an even bigger story.  That not only does the government and the media routinely lie to the American people, they are controlled and managed by a handful of corporations who have interlocking board of directors who also benefit financially from the many wars and resultant human tragedies this institutionalized murder and mayhem produce.   I discovered that America and the grand ideals America represented in my mind has been captured by a small group of individuals and is used not to spread goodness and democracy but rather the opposite.  This is not an opinion, but a demonstrable fact.

So here I sit today, realizing the sad truth that America is not the greatest force for good in the world but rather the greatest force for evil.

“The September 11 attack on America was planned, coordinated, and carried out under the watchful eyes and with the helpful assistance of top officials in the FBI, CIA, and Bush Administration–officials who did everything in their power to insure that the operation would be a spectacular triumph unequaled in the world of terrorism and political opportunism.”  — R. Joseph, PhD

Interview with NSA Whistleblower William Binney

William Binney 504392832_640Please take the time to view this important interview with NSA Whistleblower William Binney.  Important source information is contained herein.  Mr. Binney is obviously very intelligent and provides important key insights and details of the inner operations of the NSA that most  are unaware.  It is also obvious that Mr. Binney has been so close to the action and so focused on the duties of his 36 year career, he has not had the time to investigate what part his actions have played in the larger picture. For example, he was not aware of operation Gladio, or the grander Anglo-American Geopolitical strategies and goals that direct the NSA; and though he found the official 9/11 report not credible,  he still seemed to hold out a faint belief that mistakes were made; not that they were orchestrated by the same system he served.  Despite this, this is a key video to be aware of; so please invest the time to become knowledgeable –up close and personal with William Binney– of the imminent and existential threat we all face at the hands of the NSA and the Stasi state they are currently creating.

The Future of Freedom: A Feature Interview with NSA Whistleblower William Binney from Tragedy and Hope on Vimeo.

A 36-year veteran of America’s Intelligence Community, William Binney resigned from his position as Director for Global Communications Intelligence (COMINT) at the National Security Agency (NSA) and blew the whistle, after discovering that his efforts to protect the privacy and security of Americans were being undermined by those above him in the chain of command.

The NSA data-monitoring program which Binney and his team had developed — codenamed ThinThread — was being aimed not at foreign targets as intended, but at Americans (codenamed as Stellar Wind), was destroying privacy here and around the world. Binney voices his call to action for the billions of individuals whose rights are currently being violated.

William Binney speaks out in this feature-length interview with Tragedy and Hope’s Richard Grove, focused on the topic of the ever-growing Surveillance State in America.

On January 22, 2015: (Berlin, Germany) – The Government Accountability Project (GAP) is proud to announce that retired NSA Technical Director and GAP client, William “Bill” Binney, will accept the Sam Adams Associates for Integrity in Intelligence Award today in Berlin, Germany. The award is presented annually by the Sam Adams Associates for Integrity in Intelligence (SAAII) to a professional who has taken a strong stand for ethics and integrity. whistleblower.org/press/nsa-whistleblower-bill-binney-wins-prestigious-sam-adams-award

Classified Woman – Book Review

Classified Woman-The Sibel Edmonds Story: A Memoir by Sibel D Edmonds (Mar 9, 2012)
Paperback: 340 pages | Available at Amazon and other book resellers

Sibel EdmondsIt is my opinion that Sibel Edmonds is one of the most important women of our era.   She was born in 1970, raised in Iran, moved to Turkey at age 11 and then moved to the U.S. when she was 17. She has a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice, a psychology from George Washington University and her master’s in public policy and international commerce from George Mason University. She also speaks four languages fluently. That’s all impressive, but that does not make her important. What if I told you that she was so feared by the Federal Government that the ACLU described her as “the most gagged person in American history”; and that even the page numbers of her book and her age were ‘Classified’? The FBI retroactively classified as Top Secret all of the material and statements that had been provided to the Senate Judiciary Committee in 2002 relating to her lawsuit, as well as the letters that had been sent by the Senators and republished by the Project on Government Oversight. What was the government so afraid of? Their most feared enemy: a small woman willing to stand up and tell the truth.

But her real importance to me is found in what she can teach each of us about standing up to those more powerful than us. So with this introduction, it’s hard to know where to start with Sibel Edmonds. For example, just the story of her amazing father, Rasim Deniz, would be enough for a great book. Sibel’s father was one of the Middle East’s leading reconstructive surgeons, but more importantly he was a good father. He taught Sibel truth and dignity; and he taught her to stand up against tyranny, by example. He stood up against the most feared Iranian Secret Police of the day: The Shah of Iran’s SAVAK to protect his little girl and yet again after they moved to Turkey. Unfortunately for Sibel and for all of us, Rasim Deniz died in 2000; but it is to our great benefit that his spirit lives on in Sibel and we are all better for it. How? Because after being confronted with corruption at the highest levels of this country, Sibel didn’t back down. Despite being born in Iran, she has shown us what it takes to be a real American and to hold those in power accountable. In a very real sense, Sibel is the best example of what a true American should be in our modern era. She is made of the same stuff that once made America great and we need to rediscover those roots.  She came to America to find freedom and beauty –which she found– but she also found a system of corruption which reached into the highest levels of our government and Rasim’s little girl –now a woman—would have none of it. Unlike many of her fellow workers at the FBI who would go along to get along in fear of losing their jobs or worse,  Sibel stood tall and confronted the beast that has become the U.S. Federal Government.

Sibel’s ‘Classified Woman’ was a real eye-opener for me. Why? Because I knew our government was corrupt, but I didn’t fully realize how corrupt or how far up the ladder the corruption went. It goes all the way to the top and Sibel documents this detail by detail, fact by fact; not in a vindictive manner to inflame but in a slow methodical process that demonstrates innocence lost; how her belief in the United States was hijacked by the reality of the corruption that implicates the government in the attack on 9/11 and the subsequent whitewash and cover-up represented by the 9/11 official report.

From the back cover: “In this startling new memoir, Sibel Edmonds—the most classified woman in U.S. history—takes us on a surreal journey that begins with the secretive FBI and down the dark halls of a feckless Congress to a stonewalling judiciary and finally, to the national security whistleblowers movement she spearheaded. Having lived under Middle East dictatorships, Edmonds knows firsthand what can happen when government is allowed to operate in secret. Hers is a sobering perspective that combines painful experience with a rallying cry for the public’s right to know and to hold the lawbreakers accountable. With U.S. citizens increasingly stripped of their rights in a calibrated media blackout, Edmonds’ story is a wake-up call for all Americans who, willingly or unwillingly, traded liberty for illusive security in the wake of 9/11.”
