Amerika's Dirty Secret
Here is a nice article I thought all you Amerikan patriots would enjoy. Be sure to check out the extensive list of links to source documentation at the bottom of the post. Now I know this is an article that will take approximately five minutes to read, and I know all to well that some of you can only take your news in doses of 15 seconds, inter-spliced with video war game-like footage of bombs exploding, etc. BUT DO TRY to read it.


Subject: Fwd: Foreign Press Reveals Afghanistan War "pre-planned"
Date: Thursday, 18 Oct 2001 17:31:22

A compilation of disturbing facts, also reported by the highly respected BBC.

Foreign Press Reveals Colin Powell Negotiated Afghanistan War Months Before Suicide Air Attacks: Motive is Oil Profits for Multinational War Partners

The BBC and an Indian news agency in separate stories, one month before and one shortly after the suicide air attack on America, have presented the most horrendous picture to date regarding the true nature of the terror in NYC and elsewhere.

Prior knowledge.

Those backing President Bush's request for a coalition had better make certain they are getting their fair share of the spoils of war, a war arranged months before the suicide air attacks against the US. A pact for war against the TalSE Asia Oil Pipeline, which cannot take place with growing political and religious upheaval in the region at the hands of the Taliban. Iran is thought to be a covert member to the pact. The combat was initially slated for mid October, which would seem to account for warnings that preparing for war will take time.

The problem is that the ONLY logical pipeline route runs for nearly a thousand miles along the Afghanistan border with Iran and Pakistan, (largely so close as to be visible from the border). This route would seem to provide the US with the best serving the same oil fields in northern Iran and points south, preventing China from obtaining a defacto monopoly holder on oil supplies for SE Asia. The Chinese began negotiating that project in 1997, causing a great deal of consternation for the Clinton administration and major US oil companies who stood to gain little in the project.

However, the Taliban are fomenting both religious and political instability in the region between Iranian and Pakistani Shiites and Taliban Sunni Islamic sects, with notable success. This unrest makes impractical the financial investment and international cooperation required to construct the pipeline.

The solution was apparently to be death warrants for both the Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar, and capitalistic terrorist Osama bin Laden, who had apparently grown too profitable and too strong for his former CIA masters to control. Destruction of the Taliban was imperative, but political needs would not permit a simple solution.

For Pakistan and India, long bitter rivals, to partner would require only sufficient profits to make peace between them more palatable. However, Pakistan required a significant motive beyond profits to risk internal conflict due to its nation's divided religious and political landscape, all intertwined with allegiances to the Taliban. There needed to be an extremely irresistible reason for the nation's leadership to back/support military action against what their own citizens considered a virtual spiritual ally.

In like manner, Iran required an irresistible reason to publicly support with vocal blessings American interests in any such action, and at the same time, needed a way to salve bitter wounds between the two countries which would allow future joint financial ventures.

In similar manner, the United States needed a very powerful and irresistible reason to mobilize America into supporting such a war, a war which would be extremely difficult to prosecute, as the Soviet Union could testify of first hand, having found the Soviet-Afghanistan war to be their 'Vietnam.'

The logical solution which would indeed provide irresistible reasons for all concerned, would now seem to be the horrific terror campaign against NYC and Washington DC.

Separately, it seems, one of the terrorists was seen by Mossad agents to have consulted with Iraqi intelligence operatives prior to the attack; a matter passed to CIA as a warning that perhaps Iraq and Afghanistan were partnering. US Intelligence confirms this event but claims it was not because the terrorism was sponsored by Iraq, a matter not evident to Mossad, yet CIA seems to know. Indeed, the conference was likely for the personal sale of information regarding the truth of the coming attack, which in part accounts for Iraq's somewhat, evenhanded statements on the disaster, as well as those of Libya. Both nations would now seem to be jointly blackmailing US intelligence for a slice of the action and continued safety -- in exchange for kind words and a hands-off policy towards the looming military action.

The attack comes in the wake of revelations by author James Bamford in his book Body of Evidence of a secret plan for US military intelligence cooperatives to commit acts of terrorism against American targets... blow up buildings, shoot down civilian airliners, blow up American war ships, and assassinate American citizens... for political gain. Operation Northwoods was signed off by all five Joint Chiefs of Staff under the Kennedy administration as a way to foment public support for a war against Cuba, who would be blamed for the terrorist acts. Rejected sternly by President Kennedy, which may have contributed to reasons behind his assassination, this Reichstag fire approach to political gain may have been the model for September 11, shifting the blame this time to the Taliban homeland. What would make a more irresistible excuse for war?

In light of these revelations, American media needs to decide if it will continue to ignore truth and the principles of journalism for its preferred role as Fourth Estate PR spokesperson of government. Will they tell America these facts or hide what the rest of the world already knows through news agencies, which have no such loyalties?

Will American politicians find themselves being asked by their constituents if they knew in advance of this death pact, and have the blood of innocents on their hands as coconspirators, or will they demand a full accounting of the facts before signing off on the blood lust boiling over as result of this war plot?

For more information, please review the following news sources:

This article was written by an Indian news agency months before the attack:

http://www.indiareacts.com/Story33.htm

H. Michael Sweeney is a published author in the area of personal privacy and safety, and an expert on dis-information and an investigative writer specializing in crimes of the intelligence community. Mr. Sweeney is one of many persons preparing to educate America of the existence of these facts.

"America will undoubtedly have its unstoppable war thanks to the Fourth Estate, but at what price?" asks Mr. Sweeney. "Only those powerful men who know the truth will profit, and every American will have paid for it with their souls, others with their blood." He adds that "It is extremely ironic that this plan comes so close on the heels of the release of the James Bond film, The World is Not Enough, which parallels many of the key elements of the underlying story."

NASA Curbs Comments on Ice Age Disaster Movie
By ANDREW C. REVKIN NY Times


Urgent: HQ Direction," began a message e-mailed on April 1 to dozens of scientists and officials at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md.

It was not an alert about an incoming asteroid, a problem with the space station or a solar storm. It was a warning about a movie.

In "The Day After Tomorrow," a $125 million disaster film set to open on May 28, global warming from accumulating smokestack and tailpipe gases disrupts warm ocean currents and sets off an instant ice age.

Few climate experts think such a prospect is likely, especially in the near future. But the prospect that moviegoers will be alarmed enough to blame the Bush administration for inattention to climate change has stirred alarm at the space agency, scientists there say.

"No one from NASA is to do interviews or otherwise comment on anything having to do with" the film, said the April 1 message, which was sent by Goddard's top press officer. "Any news media wanting to discuss science fiction vs. science fact about climate change will need to seek comment from individuals or organizations not associated with NASA."

Copies of the message, and the one from NASA headquarters to which it referred, were provided to The New York Times by a senior NASA scientist who said he resented attempts to muzzle climate researchers.

Late last week, however, NASA appeared to relax its stand on discussing the movie. Though she did not disavow the e-mail, Gretchen Cook-Anderson, a spokeswoman at NASA headquarters, said on Thursday that the agency would make scientists available to discuss issues raised by the film.

"We've decided not to proactively speak out on anything related to the movie," she said. "But when asked, we can certainly provide some of our experts to answer questions about the validity of the science."

Several days ago, NASA scientists produced a list of questions and answers about abrupt climate change, but the information has not yet been approved for public release.

"The Day After Tomorrow," from 20th Century Fox, is directed by Roland Emmerich, whose "Independence Day" in 1996 depicted an alien invasion of earth and included such memorable special effects as the White House exploding in flames. The new movie's script contains a host of politically uncomfortable situations: the president's motorcade is flash frozen; the vice president, who scoffs at warnings even as chaos erupts, resembles Dick Cheney; the humbled United States has to plead with Mexico to allow masses of American refugees fleeing the ice to cross the border.

The initial efforts by NASA headquarters to limit comments angered some government researchers.

"It's just another attempt to play down anything that might lead to the conclusion that something must be done" about global warming, one federal climate scientist said. He, like half a dozen government employees interviewed on this subject, said he could speak only on condition of anonymity because of standing orders not to talk to the news media.

I heard parts of the movie was filmed in Montreal, Quebec. One of my friends were asked to be an extra on the movie...but he was busy and didn't go. Another friend got to do some stuntwork for some scenes.
