Intellectually Bankrupt
Posted September 1st, 2007 by Davide Simonetti
General Sir Mike Jackson tells it like it is:
The head of the British army during the Iraq invasion has said US post-war policy was "intellectually bankrupt".
Yes, that about sums it up. And Dubya still has the gall to tell us to "stay the course". Only a fool would do so. Over to you Gordon.

Take out the words "post war policy" and you have the entire situation covered.
Came across this lot
Came across this lot sometime ago,make off it what you will.
"Promis (Prosecutor's Management Information System) software was specifically re-engineered and mated with artificial intelligence during the 1980s for the purpose of tracking terrorists. It integrates diverse pieces of data and predicts the movement of terrorists based upon financial (e.g. credit card transactions), entries through various border checkpoints, car rentals and airline ticket purchases, stock speculation as well as the laundering of money and then sets off warning bells.
Bin Laden had bought large amounts of "shorts' before Sept. 11th to make a quick profit. The CIA must have noticed this.
Unknown individuals - with accurate foreknowledge of the attacks - had purchased an obvious and unusually large number of “put” options on United and American Airlines shortly before the attacks. Put options are essentially a bet that a stock’s price will fall abruptly. Investors have yet to claim $2.5 million in profits. Deutschebank also handled accounts worth about $100 million for Osama bin Laden's family"...

"U.S. government does not have enough hard evidence connecting Bin Laden to 9/11, how is it possible that it had enough evidence to invade Afghanistan to “smoke him out of his cave?” The federal government claims to have invaded Afghanistan to “root out” Bin Laden and the Taliban."..
http://www.teamliberty.net/id267.html
"Now as US military action will replace the Taliban government and fresh crops will be planted in Afghanistan, the slack in cash flow will assuredly be replaced by dramatically increased opium production in Colombia; the revenues from that effort being needed to maintain the revenue streams into Wall Street. Prior to the WTC attacks, credible sources, including the U.S. government, the IMF, Le Monde and the U.S. Senate placed the amount of drug cash flowing into Wall Street and U.S. banks at around $250-$300 billion a year."

That's Jackson's latest
That's Jackson's latest position. It's not something he voiced at the time - when he was directly and personally involved. Jackson may be right, but let''s not forget that he's in the process of bookselling and recovering part of his large advance.
The military view of Jackson is certainly not very complimentary. He's regarded by many a a bit too self-obsessed. See:

Why the f*ck should we take
Why the f*ck should we take any notice of this war dog? He's a complete hypocrite who kept his silence while his ranks were dying for, what he knew at the time, was nothing. But is happy to chirp away to line his own pockets. Disgraceful.
Many many people were saying the very same thing in 2003 and were vilified for it, are we to applaud this man, damn no! He should have resigned in 2003 and gone public if he had any morals whatsoever.
He should be in the dock along with his political masters facing trial for committing the most serious of all crimes.
When i looked at the vid
When i looked at the vid (posted above) on youtube, the list of 'related' vids begins, "how to solve the rubiks cube", with the second being "how to paint the mona-lisa with M$ paintbrush".
This is surely a from of censorship, i.e not showing truly related vids. One of the great things about youtube is finding a vid then hopping along to more based on the 'related' links, except of course when it is critical of US government. You can see similar manipulation of the 'related' links with anti-zionist vids.
This is similar to google's constant interfering with the viewing figures and ranking of anti-US government vids, as one example research 'Terrorstorm' where they have been screwing about with the figures constantly. This is widely documented on many sites with screen-shots etc.
Also Google is a US government site that was started by the CIA. You think I'm kidding? Larry Page and Sergi Brin are just stooges - The myth that these two guys started Google in a garage is laughable.
Better to use alternative search engine if you want to verify this for yourself, google does feature results, but you immediately notice that most of the ones shown are either dismissive, or have a load of follow-up comments which are obviously posted by shills.
Finally, one should always be wary of web-sites that do not carry syndicated advertising - like Blairwatch for example.

If you're referring to the Put Options placed on American and United Airlines then you have swallowed a load of BS because the US authorities have refused to reveal who the buyer was, although they claim the deals can't be traced - which is of course more BS.
Interestingly, even though this has been widely reported as a fact, a search on google for '911 airlines put options' puts at the top of the page an urban legend site which claims it to be false. More dodgey Google/CIA shenanigans no doubt.

Hardly surprising. Many big names are in deep do-do and scrambling like crazy to hide the fact, Goldman Sachs is up the spout big time, as is Banque BNP Paribas, and Barclay's appear to be having some difficulties too.
When the do-do hit's the fan the working and middle classes will have to pay-up for this. And as for Central Bank intervention, whatever happened to the deregulated free market's these financial giants screamed for the last two decades? Now they are screwed they welcome all this Government intervention - at tax payers expense of course. Bloody hypocrites.
I believe the US (and therefore global) economy is being deliberately run into the ground by the shadow world government so they can introduce the North American Union and the Amero. Nothing happens in this world by chance. It's all illusion and design.

Do you really "admire" her Gordon, you self-serving prig?
I think it's clear that Gordon isn't going to be very good for the world.

The people picked up in
The people picked up in Germany today are most certainly at risk of being tried in courts that are controlled by NAZI legislation. Also any amount of lying is accepted on the government's behalf, I was told this by a German Laywer, who also thought it was totally acceptable.
The Americans are fully aware of this vile piece of legislation, because they were one of the occupying powers afer the war, who allowed it to remain on statute in Germany.
It would suit the NAZI regimes in control of the West, to convict someone of planning vile acts, as the so called 'war on terror' has gone a bit lame recently.
The media in Germany are not allowed do anything that criticises the regime because they have to get permission from a lawyer who always defends the government and stops the media from reporting illegal government activity. Therefore, they would not report illegal goings on in the court, no matter how blatant they were.
The Bild newspaper says that their readership would not be interested in a story about the use of NAZI legislation in Germany which overthrows the Constitution, if the regime requires it to do so. On the other hand a Turkish newspaper printed the story, saying it was their duty to expose attacks on Democracy regardless of who was doing it.. Any story the Bild or any German news organisation reports on must be considered with the fact they only print what is allowed by the regime.
I am not in any way anti-German, my friends in Germany have asked me to help expose the allegiance of the German regime to NAZISM. They are equally disgusted at the regime's abuse of the Constitution.

I was led to believe that any aircraft in the air in the USA that was not logged in, and its plans filed, would be shot down by the Air Force boys. Is it possible that the Air Force did intercept it, and shot first before asking questions, the usual kind of thing?
Or putting it another way are they saying that he was bimbling around, and the US air defence network were none the wiser.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/6982803.stm
Slight problem with this "story", in fact two, oh wait - three problems with this. Bollocks, there's lots of problems.
1.) The picture is clearly not of Osama, compare for yourself.
http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/osama_newfake.html
2.) It was shown by a computer expert that the al-Sahab logo and the IntelCen logo's were added at the same time on previous (and proven fake) videos. This suggests the videos are in fact a 'production' of IntelCen.
http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2007/08/researchers-ana.html
3.) Osama has never claimed to be responsible for the attacks, and in fact appeared on video before his death stating categorically that he was not involved.
4.) Former CIA asset Osama Bin Laden has been dead for a number of years. Reported widely in Pakistan and accross the Middle East, but ignored by the western media.
5.) The BBC are a provable bunch of liars who are promoting the Bin Laden myth as part of the fake terror threats that the US/UK government has constructed in order to justify oppressive domestic laws and obscene international war-crimes.
And so on... ad nauseum.

Barksdale Air Force Base, where the nuke laden B52 landed, happens to be the air force base out of which they send hardware to the middle-east.
Sabre rattling propaganda, considering that it is impossible for anyone to have know visually that the cruise missiles were armed with nuke warheads it must have been a deliberately 'leaked' story.
The reason could be if there is (the expected) repercussions to a military strike on Iran then the US will nuke Tehran - to save the lives of American servicemen of course, the same excuse for nuking the already defeated Japanese. That should deter China and Russia from getting involved (that's what 'they' think anyway).
The US now has an official first-strike policy against non-nuclear nations, this alone should tell you everything you need to know about them.
The BBC has gone totally
The BBC has gone totally over the top in reporting the 'Osama' video. three pictures of a bearded man in a hat on the front page this morning. One for the story, one to watch the video and yet another for the 'have your say', which is full of anti-Islamic bile.
They mention in the reports 'allegedly' once, but after that inconvenience is out of the way it's all treated as gospel truth. Pure US propaganda brought to you by your TV license funded public broadcaster.
Truly appalling that no one questions this more. What the hell has happened to journalism in this country?
Here's an interesting
Here's an interesting article about the Osama vid. Apparently, the reason the beard looks fake is... because... it is fake. However, the spin on that is because Osama is now living in South East Asia where Moslems don't wear beards. Oh right, thanks for clearing that up then. Un-fucking-believable.
Interesting if you compare the US comments to the UK ones on the BBC. There seems much more scepticism in the US about this, now how can that be? Thanks BBC, you bunch of government whores and slags.
Why the BBC should not be
Why the BBC should not be treated as a reliable news source;
The BBC ran this report, stating categorically that WTC7 had collapsed on Sept. 11th 2001 a full 26 minutes before it became only the third steel framed building in history to 'collapse due to fire'.
The BBC claim the report was a 'mistake' and that they had no foreknowledge of the collapse. Reporter Jayne Standley tells us authoritatively (and incorrectly) why the building came down - debris falling on it from WTC1 and 2. The 'official' investigfation could not say why it collapsed. Anyone that has seen the WTC7 collapse video KNOWS that it is a controlled demolition.
I have spoken (via email) to a senior BBC news editor about this anomaly and they can only repeat 'we had no foreknowledge', in spite of the ridiculous nature of that statement. Oh dear.
Now call me stupid but if you say something HAS happened, and then half an hour later it DOES happen that means you have had foreknowledge. Double-speak and double-think at it's best from the Big Brother Corporation, a.k.a The Ministry of Truth.
Where is the outrage?

Another Osama angle on the false Osama beard argument, i.e that he's trying to blend in with other South East Asian moslems. Osama bin Osama bin Osama bin Laden was 6' 5" tall. So how the Osama fuck is cutting off his Osama beard going to make him blend into a region where the average male height is 5' 7" ?
Here's what I Osama think about it all;

The BBC is about as independent of the FASCIST regime as any normal persons eyes are independent of each other. They are not allowed to report anything that is provenly embarrassing to the Junta. It is either that, or they are totally illiterate at the BBC. The people at the top in the Ballony Bollocks Corporation know that their peerages depend on their blind obedience.
I know that independence of the media from NAZISM in the EU does not exist, no matter at what political or journalisitc level. The Turkish media on the other hand, makes it clear, it is their duty to defend Democracy, from all aggression. I recommend them if you have an issue that is of importance to Democracy.

Tiny peace loving nation
Tiny peace loving nation Israel, which is surrounded by enemy nations that wish to see it pushed into the sea in another holocaust, has once again been making all the running at ending hostilities.
The only democracy in the Middle East, which does not practice apartheid and is also not a fascist state, which has never attacked its allies in an attempt to provoke war recently launched more peace missions using fighter-bombers against the terrorist Islamo fascist nations Syria and Lebanon. The ungrateful terror states have rejected Israel's peace missions, and Syria has even provoked a regional war by engaging it's air-defense systems against the F-16 peace missions.
The democratically elected terrorist Hamas government recently staged a coup in its own territory, thereby ousting the influence of Israel-US backed Fatah death squads in a flagrant violation of international law. It is not surprising therefore that Israel, a peace loving nation, has no recourse but to collectively punish the 1.5 million terrorist civilians in Gaza by denying them food, medicine, fuel, electricity, water and freedom to travel. Collective punishment is a recognised right of all true democracies as enshrined in US/Israeli foreign policy.
Please support the boycott of Palestine by ignoring all negative reporting on Israel, a peace loving nation, and where possible accuse those that hold negative views of peace loving nation Israel (a peace loving nation) as anti-semitic, Jew haters. Also, if possible please play up the dangers of Iran in the region. Ahmadinejad is the new Hitler and he is only days and weeks away from acquiring a nuclear weapon that will immediately be launched against Tel Aviv.
Israel, a peace loving nation, has not been in breach of any international laws by secretly aquiring 200+ nuclear warheads of it's own, and this has in no way affected the Iranian desire for nuclear weapons. Also, Iran should not feel threatened by being totally surrounded by nations that have nuclear weapons and hundreds of thousands of Israeli supported US peacekeepers.
Please continue to support Israel's peaceful genocide of the Palestinians by ignoring all news reports that are inaccurate, islamo-fascist propaganda or just plain untrue. You can spot these easily because they are critical of peace loving, tiny little Israel.

I've often thought
I've often thought Blairwatch was a honeypot site - disguised dissent in order to gain information on peoples views, opinions, get their IP addresses etc.
Another theory I had was that they were all desperate to get jobs in the corporate media themselves so could not tolerate such a swing from the official line, but I gave that one up.
I remember a post in which I noted the fact that 90% of all US media was owned by 5 corporation who happen, in turn, to be run by Jews. I argued that how could we possibly trust getting a balanced view of the issues in Israel/Palestine when there was such a potential for obvious biases.
Anyway, being called an anti-Semite, a prick and other such things by the nice folks at Blairwatch soon clarified their position for me.
I only post here to make sure there is some balance to their agenda for the unsuspecting visitor.
If you would like to write directly to Blairwatch then here's their address :-

On our occasional "Daily Mail" watch about the new positions and alliances that seem to be forming all around us - its continued anti-Iraq and Afghan War stance, its use of Craig Murray to write articles - its interesting to see this latest article:

revealing the dirt on Rightwing/neo-con presidential candidate favourite Fred Thompson.
This is a new twist on an old tale. With the arrival of the internet, the Murdoch papers in this country were often used to trail stories here that were too hot to handle there. Like Monica Lewinsky. The Matt Drudge site in America would then run Page One of the Sun and that's the way the story would be bled into America.
Looks as though the boots on the other foot now.

Blairwatch's anti-911 stance extends to not only smearing posters of such topics, but also one of the few senior Labour MPs that has questioned 911 in public.
