Obama helping neo-Nazis re-write history of World War II by Wayne Madsen

Obama helping neo-Nazis re-write history of World War II by Wayne Madsen

By refusing an invitation to attend the May 9 celebration marking the victory of the Allies, and specifically, the Soviet Red Army, over Nazi Germany -- what the Russians call the Great Patriotic War -- President Obama has made common cause with neo-Nazis and Axis revanchists from Kiev and Berlin to Tallinn and Warsaw who are attempting to erase the USSR and its immense sacrifices in the war against fascism from the history books and various 70th anniversary commemorations of the war's milestones.

The George Soros and neo-conservative snubbing of Russia in commemorating World War II began with the Polish foreign ministry's refusal to invite Russian President Vladimir Putin to mark the liberation of the Auschwitz concentration camp from the Nazis. Although it was the Soviet Red Army that liberated the death camp, Poland not only decided to snub Putin but it invited Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, who has a number of neo-Nazis serving in his country's government, armed forces, and intelligence services, to the Auschwitz ceremony. A number of Ukrainians were allied with the Nazi SS in fighting against the Red Army. Their sons and grandsons, known as "Banderists" for Ukrainian Nazi leader Stepan Bandera, now rally around the Ukrainian nationalist and fascist cause in support of Ukraine's genocidal war against Russian-speaking Ukrainians in the Donbass region.

Polish foreign minister Grzegorz Schetyna attempted to re-write history by claiming Ukrainians, not Russians, liberated Auschwitz. Russia's Foreign Ministry responded to Schetyna by stating, "It's common knowledge that Auschwitz was liberated by the Red Army, in which all nationalities heroically served," adding that Poland was making a "mockery" of history.

Putin has said that there is a coordinated attempt by the West to belittle Russia's role in World War II. The latest attempt to diminish Russia's sacrifices in World War II have come with the announcement by many Western leaders that they will boycott the 70th Moscow anniversary commemoration of the end of the Great Patriotic War. Critics of the decision of the Western leaders to boycott the Victory Day ceremony note that by their actions Obama, Britain's David Cameron, France's Francois Hollande, Polish President Bronislaw Komorowski, Israeli President Reuven Rivlin, Georgian President Giorgi Margvelashvili, and others are trying to negate the deaths of 27 million Soviet citizens who died during the Second World War.

Donald Tusk, the President of the European Council and an ardent Polish nationalist and anti-Russian, announced that he would not be representing the European Union at the Moscow ceremony. Poland is hoping to lure those leaders boycotting Moscow to its own ceremony marking the end of World War II.

While Obama and his friends in NATO will not be in Moscow, Greece's Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, who has demanded war reparations from Germany for his country, will buck the NATO boycott and attend the ceremony on Red Square. He will be joined by North Korea's Kim Jong Un in his first trip outside of North Korea since assuming power. Kim's grandfather, Kim Il Sung, was a Communist partisan leader against the Japanese occupiers in Korea.

Another NATO leader who will bolt from the Western military bloc and go to Moscow is Milos Zeman, the Czech president. Right-wing members of the Czech Civic Democrats Party are attempting to deny financing of Zeman's trip to Moscow. Zeman, if he does make it to Moscow, will reportedly be joined by Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico. Slovakia is also a member of NATO. Slovakia's President Andrej Kiska, who has links to the Church of Scientology, refused Russia's invitation to attend the Victory Day event. Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades will buck the wishes of other European Union leaders and be in Moscow.

Nicos Anastasiades

Also joining other leaders in Moscow who are ignoring the West's boycott of the May 9 event are Chinese President Xi Jinping, Indian President Shri Pranab Mukherjee, South African President Jacob Zuma, Cuban President Raul Castro, Vietnamese President Truong Tan Sang, Serbian PresidentTomislav Nikolic, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, Mongolian President Tsakhiagiin Elbegdorj, Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliev, Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko, Kazakshtan President Nursultan Nazarbayev, Armenian President Serzh Sarsyan, Tajikistan PresidentEmomalii Rahmon, and Kyrgyzstan President Almazbek Atambaev.

There are also high-level government delegations expected in Moscow from the Netherlands, which is surprising considering the fact that Malaysian Airlines flight 17 departed from Amsterdam before it was shot down over eastern Ukraine. Although the Ukrainian regime has tried to lay blame for the shoot down on Russian-backed separatists, there has been no final conclusion as to the perpetrators. However, given reports from the Netherlands that crash investigators believe that the plane was shot down by air-to-air gunfire from Ukrainian air force warplanes, the presence of a Dutch delegation in Moscow implies that the Netherlands authorities may be aware of Kiev's culpability in the attack.
In what can only be considered a diplomatic slap at the Kiev regime and its Western supporters, the leaders of the self-declared people's republics of Donetsk and Lugansk in eastern Ukraine will be in the same Red Square viewing stand as the leaders from 30 other countries, including China, India, and South Africa, a fact that will confer a semblance of de facto international recognition of their status. In addition, the leaders of the republics of South Ossetia and Abkhazia will also be present, constituting a diplomatic defeat for the authorities in Georgia who view the republics as integral parts of their state.
 
Kiev authorities, supported by ex-U.S. ambassadors, push for their own May 9 ceremony rivaling that planned in Moscow to celebrate victory over Nazism. Ironic, since the Kiev regime is backed by neo-Nazis who support Adolf Hitler and his Ukrainian henchman Stepan Bandera [left].  Baltic leaders boycott Moscow Victory Day event while their capitals host vigils for Nazi SS veterans. [right]. The U.S. embraces these proto-Nazi governments as allies.

The Obama administration is applying intense pressure on South Korean President 
Park Geun-hye and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to refuse Moscow's invitation to the participate in the May 9 event. Venezuela, Brazil, and Nicaragua are expected to send high-level delegations to Moscow.

The leaders of the Baltic nations, where there have been recent ceremonies honoring the military veterans of their nations who fought alongside Adolf Hitler's troops, will not be in Moscow.

The leaders gathered in Moscow will witness troops from at least 10 nations marching alongside their Russian counterparts. Some Russian troops will be clad in the World War II uniforms of the Soviet Red Army. German Chancellor Angela Merkel announced that she will skip the May 9 ceremony in Moscow but show up the following day, likely to apply further pressure on Putin over the Ukraine situation. Three former U.S. ambassadors to Ukraine, John Herbst, Steven Pifer, and William Taylor, have called on world leaders to attend a Victory Day ceremony in Kiev and not Moscow. Such a move would be awkward considering the number of neo-Nazis embedded in Ukrainian military, police, and militia units.

Soros and Kochs team up in Latin American staged protests by Wayne Madsen

Soros and Kochs team up in Latin American staged protests
by Wayne Madsen
In what could have major ramifications around the world, paid Brazilian protest provocateurs for George Soros have been discovered teaming up with operatives on the payroll of American billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch. After the plan by the CIA and Soros to unseat President Dilma Rousseff, thus drive a knife into the emerging BRICS alliance of Brazil, Russia, China, India, and South Africa, through the aerial assassination last year of presidential candidate Eduardo Campos, Langley has opted for an eastern European-style themed revolution in Brazil. Campos died in a suspicious plane crash that resulted in Rousseff facing off against a Soros operative and Campos's vice presidential running mate, Green Party leader Marina Silva. Rousseff won re-election in a tight race against Aecio Neves, the right-wing candidate who surged past Silva to face Rousseff in the run-off.

Three major groups have joined forces to demand that Rousseff either resign or be impeached from office over charges that her Workers' Party government has engaged in corrupt practices, mostly with regard to Brazil's state-owned Petrobras oil company. The oil company has been eyed for some time by Soros and the Rothschild banking family for whom he fronts globally, as well as the anti-government, libertarian-bent Koch Brothers.

The March 15 national protests against Rousseff were coordinated across the country in a typical Soros-backed social media operation. In the past, anti-Rousseff activities in the country have also involved U.S. embassy and consular political officers, some using their diplomatic status to mask their Central Intelligence Agency affiliations. Some protest signs called for the Brazilian military to overthrow the Rousseff government. In the past, the CIA was responsible for a number of military takeovers in Brazil.

In a Gene Sharp-like operation, a common protest meme was created that appeared on protest signs and banner: "Fora Dilma!" or "Dilma out!" Other signs said Brazil would not become another Venezuela, a reference to that nation's progressive leftist government of Nicolas Maduro, who has been facing his own Soros- and CIA-backed uprising against his policies. The Obama administration recently called Venezuela and its socialist government a threat to U.S. national security.


Standard Soros-Gene Sharp staged protests being carried out in Brazil to undermine a progressive government. The Koch Brothers have joined Soros is financing these operations in Latin America.

The right-wing participants in Brazil's protests are linked directly with the Koch Brothers, particularly the group, “Free Brazil Movement” (Movimento Brasil Livre - MBL). The group is also financed by Warren Buffett's billionaire Brazilian partner, Jorge Paulo Lemann, Brazil's wealthiest man, whose investment group owns Heinz, Budweiser, and Burger King. Lemann has avoided answering questions about his religion, choosing to call himself a "Calvinist." However, his use of the term is in relation to his personal frugality.

Soros-backed groups have used social media to organize Brazilian celebrities to support the anti-Rousseff protests. They include the actors Caio Castro, Malvino Salvador, Marcelo Serrado, Alessandra Maestrini, singer Wanessa Camargo, and former soccer star Ronaldo (Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima). The Soros-backed protesters have organized under the banner of the "Come to the Street" movement. They have had a testy relationship with the Koch-backed MBL, especially over calls by the latter for the Brazilian military to overthrow Rousseff in a coup and re-introduce a military dictatorship. The Koch Brothers' activities in Brazil also bring up charges that the two are violating the U.S. Logan Act of 1799, which prohibits Americans from engaging in their own foreign policy.
MBL denies it is funded by Koch Industries but its two main principals, Fabio Ostermann, a member of the Institute of Business Studies and director of the Liberal Institute, and Rodrigo Constantino, who chairs the Liberal Institute and is a columnist for Veja magazine and a founding member of the liberal Institute Milenium (IMIL), are linked to Koch-funded think tanks in other countries, including the neocon Heritage Foundation and American Enterprise Institute in the United States. "Liberal" in the context of these Brazilian groups means "libertarian" of the Ayn Rand variety, a cause supported by the Kochs.

The same "libertarian" fingerprints have been found on staged protests in Ecuador and Argentina. The linkage of Soros and Koch Brothers overseas activities in undermining democratically-elected governments has raised alarm throughout Latin America and around the world.
Mutiny On Line is the central social networking operation being used to coordinate opposition to Rousseff. The group's inspiration comes from Brazilian deputy Jair Bolsonaro, a supporter of a right-wing military coup and a fervent opponent of gay rights and proponent of lowering the legal age of consent. The group rails against "Bolivarianism" in Brazil, a reference to the Bolivarian socialism of Venezuela's government. The group sells anti-Rousseff protest kits on-line which carry the message"God, Family and Freedom."

At the same time staged protests have swept through Brazil and Venezuela, protesters in Ecuador have turned out on the street to protest against the trade policies of President Rafael Correa. Right-wing groups and Soros-backed NGOs have united in their protests against the economic situation brought on by the drop of oil prices but also, curiously, against new import tariffs announced by Correa that are seen as detrimental to the "free trade" aspirations of the wealthy bankers and investor community. 

The Anti-Russian machinations of George Soros by Wayne Madsen

The Anti-Russian machinations of George Sorosby Wayne Madsen

There is a reason for Russian President Vladimir Putin enjoying a whopping 88 percent favorable rating among the Russian people. Putin's success is mostly a result of his steering Russia away from disastrous neo-conservative/Milton Friedman policies brought about by the interference at all levels of Russian politics and economics from post-Soviet minions sent to Russia by George Soros in the early 1990s. The marching orders for hundreds of Soros operatives, most of whom were working under NGO cover, were clear: ensure that Russia never again poses a threat to Western domination over the Eurasian land mass.

Under an incompetent and often-drunk president, Boris Yeltsin, and a corrupt prime minister, Viktor Chernomyrdin, Russia experienced the wholesale sell-off to unscrupulous Russian businessmen state-owned assets of the Soviet Union and Russian Federation. Many of the businessmen who bought government assets at kopeks to the ruble became overnight billionaires. Later, these businessmen, many of whom arranged for second passports from Israel and the United Kingdom, became known as the "oligarchs." The "great Russian ripoff" was the result of the work of the Gore-Chernomyrdin Commission, which was created out of an agreement between Yeltsin and U.S. President Bill Clinton.

Under a program developed by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the Harvard Institute for International Development (HIID) was given primary responsibility for transforming Russia's state economy to private enterprise. USAID was already working closely with George Soros's Open Society Institute (OSI) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to turn Russia into a free-market Eurasian version of a quasi-dictatorial Latin American republic.

Under the aegis of HIID's Harvard Project, led by Harvard economics professor Andrei Shleifer with the assistance of Larry Summers, Russia's economy underwent "shock therapy." Another shock therapist who advised the Yeltsin-Chernomyrdin regime was Columbia University economics professor Jeffrey Sachs. These neo-con professors applied the same sort of shock therapy, based on unbridled capitalism, not seen since Friedman forced post-Allende Chile, under the military dictator Augusto Pinochet, to adopt his destructive uber-capitalist policies. While Shleifer, a dual Russian-American citizen, advised the deputy prime minister Anatoly Chubais on the sale of state property and was put in charge of Rosimushchestvo (the Committee for the Management of State Property), Sachs advised Prime Minister Yegor Gaidar and Finance Minister Boris Fedorov on transforming Russia from a socialist society to a world-class capitalist market showcase. The Gore-Chernomyrdin Commission and HIID saw the city of Nizhny Novgorod as a testing ground for their libertarian economic policies that earned praise from former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. The governor of Nizhny Novgorod who eagerly instituted Harvard's shock therapy was Boris Nemtsov, recently assassinated in Moscow by parties suspected of trying to bring about a violent Ukraine-style "themed revolution" in Moscow. The themed revolution concept, created by University of Massachusetts professor Gene Sharp, has been adopted as a primary tactic by Soros and the CIA to force regime changes around the world.

Nemtsov's "success" in Nizhny Novgorod earned him an appointment as First Deputy Prime Minister in the final years of the Yeltsin administration. Nemtsov stood by Yeltsin in 1993 and cheered on the Russian president's shelling by tank fire of the Congress of People's Deputies, Russia's supreme legislative institution after it moved to impeach Yeltsin. Before anyone sheds tears over Nemtsov's fate, it should be recalled that scores of people were killed inside the parliament, known as the "White House," and hundreds more wounded. Nemtsov, the "democrat," was a mere thug cheering on other marauding thugs in 1993.


The Russian Congress of People's Deputies opposed Yeltsin's plans to sell off state assets and it was shelled by tank fire ordered by Yeltsin, an attack cheered on by Nemtsov and the Soros gang who had infiltrated all levels of the Russian government, media, and economy. Above: the upper burned floors of the White House after Yeltsin's assault.

Perhaps the only real accomplishment of Yeltsin was his appointment of Putin as his successor. It is believed by many that in his later years, Yeltsin sobered up enough to realize how he allowed Russian oligarchs and foreign interests to take over Russia in order to bleed it dry of its valuable natural resources and turn its people into low wage slaves. Putin's first order of business after becoming president of Russia was to wrest control of Russia from the oligarchs who were working hand-in-glove with Soros's OSI; the
Harriman Institute at Columbia University, which specializes in Russian, Eurasian and East European studies; HIID; the National Endowment for Democracy (NED); The Carlyle Group (on whose board Soros served); the Ford, Rockefeller, and Heritage Foundations, Helsinki Watch (which later became Human Rights Watch, funded by Soros), and the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) to ensure that the last vestiges of socialism were erased completely from the Russian landscape. These foreign neo-con elements also saw to it that Russia's government virtually demilitarized by allowing Russia's military infrastructure to fall apart. These were the years when Soviet-built ships and submarines rusted away at their moorings, Russian army units became demoralized, and air force planes were sold off on the international market to businessmen who used them for smuggling arms, precious gems, and drugs.

The results of these economic shock policies were disastrous across Russia, except for the few oligarchs who amassed billions of rubles and foreign currency at the expense of Russian workers, pensioners, and the middle class. One Harvard professor, Edward Glaeser, opined that the Harvard Project and its masterminds had not created so much hatred toward Jews in Russia and abroad since the publication of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
Putin has certainly had his job cut out for him. One of the first tasks of Soros was to transform Russian education. Just after the fall of the Soviet Union, Soros publishing houses provided the Russian education system with textbooks that lauded privatization, capitalism, and foreign investment. Soros's re-education of Russian youth was designed to ensure that socialism would never be popular again with future generations of Russians. It was out of these "re-educated" youth that Russia's current, and very much a minority, opposition draws its ranks. Soros's textbooks were also influenced by the CIA, which wanted Russian school-age population to believe that Russia would never again be a great power.

Exiled Russian media tycoon Boris Berezovsky, also known as Platon Elenin, who was suspiciously found hanging in 2013 in the bathroom of his English manor house with a belt tied around his neck after he expressed a willingness to return to Russia to patch up his differences with Putin, was quoted in 1999 by Interfax as saying of Soros and the CIA, "I nearly fainted when I heard a couple of years ago that George Soros was a CIA asset." Berezovsky said that Soros was working with the CIA to undermine Russia because they were "afraid of Russian capital becoming strong." Berezovsky, who worked with other Russian oligarch exiles and billionaire domestic Russian opponents of Putin like jailed and now-exiled former Yukos boss Mikhail Khodorkovsky, as well as Chechen rebels, to undermine Putin would have been a god-send to Russian counter-intelligence had he returned to Russia. Although the Soros media tried to pin Berezovsky's alleged "suicide" on Putin, it was the Soros/CIA nexus who had reason to want Berezovsky dead. Berezovsky was in on th4e ground floor of the opposition movement to Putin and he knew not only knew "where all the bodies were buried" but, more importantly, where all the money was stashed abroad.

One of the joint CIA/Soros OSI assets, who used the International Crisis Group (ICG), founded by Soros in 1993, as cover, was Fred Cuny. Cuny disappeared in 1995 in Chechnya while reportedly assisting Chechen separatist rebels in their war against Russia. ICG has included on its board a number of Cold War veteran intelligence types, including the rabidly anti-Russian Zbigniew Brzezinski; former NATO commander Wesley Clark, who was willing to shoot it out with Russian troops over control of the vestiges of the former Yugoslavia; and Ronald Reagan national security adviser Richard Allen, who recruited Oliver North for the National Security Council staff.

Although there is evidence that Nemtsov may have been sacrificed by the neo-cons as a way of embarrassing Putin and bringing pressure to bear on his government, there is little doubt that Nemtsov was working with Soros and the CIA to overthrow the Russian government. On November 17, 2010, Nemtsov addressed the Harriman Institute at Columbia. Surrounded by Soros operatives, CIA elements, and other ne'er-do-wells, Nemtsov publicly outlined the plans to overthrow Putin: Nemtsov called for sanctions against Russian leaders over the death of Sergei Magnitsky, a dodgy Russian lawyer, who was awaiting trial on charges of fraud in connection with Russia’s largest foreign investment fund, Hermitage Capital. Hermitage was owned by American William Browder, grandson of American Communist Party leader Earl Browder. Earl and William shared something in common: they were both dupes of U.S. intelligence. Earl wasted no time in denouncing other American communists before the House Un-American Activities Committee and FBI in order to save his own skin.

Nemtsov helped get Congress to enact the for Sergei Magnitsky Act of 2010 which imposed sanctions and U.S. visa bans on 60 Russian officials in the Interior Ministry, Federal Security Service, Federal Tax Service, arbitration courts, general prosecutor's office, and Federal Prison Service. The 60 officials were accused of murdering Magnitsky even though there was not a shred of evidence proving it. 

For Nemtsov, the list of 60 sanctioned Russians was insufficient. He wanted it extended to Putin himself and other top Russian officials. If any American political leader urged a foreign parliament to enact sanctions against President Obama, Vice President Biden, and other Cabinet officials, many Americans would call the action treasonous or seditious. 
Soros has a single intention when he throws billions of dollars at regime change. He wants to squash anything resembling a state-run or mixed state/private-run economy. Soros believes that all wealth must be held by a few oligarchs like himself. For that reason, any leader who stands in the way of Soros's brand of uber-capitalism, will find himself or herself pressured by street-centered themed revolutions. Putin is refusing to become the latest Soros victim, a list which includes Serbia's Slobodan Milosevic, Haiti's Jean-Bertrand Aristide, Ivory Coast's Laurent Gbagbo, Thailand's Thaksin and Yingluck Shinawatra, Georgia's Eduard Shevardnadze, Ukraine's Viktor Yanukovych, Honduras's Manuel Zelaya, Paraguay's Fernando Lugo, and Kyrgyzstan's Askar Akaev and Kurmanbek Bakiyev.

It is not Putin who stands as a threat to democracy but Soros and his well-paid minions who thrive on shock therapy economies and political turmoil. If anyone should be sanctioned with asset freezes and visa bans it should be one Gyorgy Schwartz, otherwise known as George Soros, and his children Alexander, Gregory, Jonathan, and Robert Soros, and Andrea Soros Columbel. For Russia, the Soros family rose up from the bowels of hell to plague the entire nation.

George W. Bush: “My Dad Was Meeting with the Brother of Osama on September 11, 2001. Does That Make Him a Terror Suspect?”

Under the anti terrorist legislation adopted in Western countries, a person can be arrested for visiting an “anti-American” or “Islamist” website on the internet.  In the US, habeas corpus has been scrapped, the police can arrest a citizen on mere suspicion of “terror activities” without a warrant. Moreover, under Obama, the practice of “extrajudicial killing” applies to suspected US citizens.   

In Canada, under the clauses of  Canada’s proposed C-51 “Anti-terrorism” Bill, Canadian citizens can be arrested on a mere suspicion:

 Six Muslim young adults stand in front of a mosque late at night in heated discussion in some foreign language. … They may be talking about video games, or sports, or girls, or advocating the overthrow of the Harper government. Who knows? … But the new standard for arrest and detention—reason to suspect that they may commit an act—is so low that an officer may be inclined to arrest and detain them in order to investigate further. … They could act on mere suspicion that an arrest is likely to prevent any terrorist activity. Yesterday, the Muslim men were freely exercising constitutional rights to freedom of expression and assembly. Today they are to be arrested. (Canadian Center for Policy Alternatives,  February 15, 2015) 

Anti-Terrorism Double Standards

Ironically, the anti-terrorist legislation does not apply to politicians in high office, namely to the “State sponsors of terrorism”; nor does it apply to U.S. or Canadian diplomats, intelligence officials, who are routinely in liaison with terrorist organizations in the Middle East. 

Individuals can be arrested but presidents and prime ministers are allowed to mingle and socialize with family members of the World’s most renowned terrorist and alleged architect of the 9/11 attacks:Osama bin Laden. 

Lest we forget, one day before the 9/11 attacks, the dad of the sitting President of the United States of America, George Herbert Walker Bush was meeting none other than Shafig bin Laden, the brother of terror mastermind Osama bin Laden. It was a routine business meeting on September 10-11, no conflict of interest, no relationship to the 9/11 attacks which allegedly were carried out on the orders of Shafiq’s brother Osama.

Confirmed by the Washington Post, “fellow investors” of the Carlyle Group including Osama’s brother Shafig bin Laden and Dubya’s dad former President George H. W. Bush met in the plush surroundings of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel on September 10-11, 2001. Their business encounter under the auspices of the Carlyle Group was unfortunately interrupted on September 11 by the 9/11 attacks.  (see image below):

It didn’t help that as the World Trade Center burned on Sept. 11, 2001, the news interrupted a Carlyle business conference at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel here attended by a brother of Osama bin Laden [Shafiq bin Laden]. Former president Bush[senior, see image below], a fellow investor, had been with him at the conference the previous day. (Greg Schneider, Pairing the Powerful With the Rich, Washington Post, March 16, 2003)

Shafiq bin Laden, Osama’s  brother and member of the Carlyle Group meets George H. W. Bush at Ritz Carlton on September 10, 2001  (Source: Michael Moore, Fahrenheit 911)

A timely business meeting on September 10-11 at the Ritz Carlton with Osama’s brother disrupted by the 9/11 attacks: pure coincidence,  totally unrelated to the 9/11 attacks.

A day later, on the evening of September 11, 2001, president George W. Bush pronounced a historic speech in which he defined the relationship between “terrorists’ and “state sponsors of terrorism”:

The search is underway for those who are behind these evil acts. I’ve directed the full resources of our intelligence and law enforcement communities to find those responsible and to bring them to justice. We will make no distinction between the terrorists who committed these acts and those who harbor them.

Also in attendance at the Ritz Carlton meetings were former secretary of defense Frank Carlucci, former secretary of state James Baker III, and other unnamed members of the bin Laden family.

The Carlyle Group is  embroiled  with the defense and intelligence establishment. “It is widely regarded as an extension of the US government, or at least the National Security Agency, the CIA, and the Pentagon.”

Double standards in anti-terrorism legislation? Double standards in police and law enforcement? No questions asked. No police investigation or interrogation of Osama’s brother Shafig.

Normally, under established rules of police investigation, both Shafig bin Laden and the president’s dad George Herbert Walker Bush should have been remanded in custody for police questioning and in all likelihood, Shafig bin Laden would have been arrested as a potential suspect. But that did not happen.

The presence of members of the bin Laden family meeting up with the father of the president of the United States was hushed up and 13 members of the bin Ladens including Shafig were flown out of the US on September 19, 2001 in a plane chartered by the White House. Meanwhile, suspected Muslims are arrested on a mere suspicion, –e.g. that they have an old school friend, who’s cousin’s 86 year old grandmother is an an alleged sympathizer of the “jihad”.

Timely departure of Shafig et al: On the day following the departure of the bin Ladens, President Bush delivered an address to a joint session of the House and the Senate (September 20, 2001), in which he stated unequivocally his administration’s intent to “pursue nations that provide aid or safe haven to terrorism”, with no exceptions (e.g. Saudi Arabia and Pakistan)

“We will starve terrorists of funding, turn them one against another, drive them from place to place, until there is no refuge or no rest. And we will pursue nations that provide aid or safe haven to terrorism. Every nation, in every region, now has a decision to make.

Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists. (Applause.)

From this day forward, any nation that continues to harbor or support terrorism will be regarded by the United States as a hostile regime [state sponsor of terrorism].  President George W. Bush, 20 September 2001 (emphasis added)

Osama behind 9/11?

According to CIA Director George Tenet in a late morning statement on September 11, 2001, Al Qaeda under the helm of Osama bin Laden was “behind these evil acts”.

The alleged responsibility of Osama bin Laden in carrying out the 9/11 attacks was later confirmed by Britain’s Prime Minister Tony Blair in a statement to the the House of Commons on October 4, 2001.  This did not,  however,  prevent Tony Blair from socializing with Saudi Prince Bandar bin Sultan, who prior to 9/11 had allegedly provided millions of dollars of financial assistance to the Al Qaeda terror network:

In testimony [accused hijacker] Moussawi said he created a database of al-Qaeda donors, including members of the royal family such as former intelligence chief Prince Turki al-Faisal and Prince Bandar bin Sultan, who was Saudi ambassador to the United States for 22 years until 2005. Mint Press, February 14, 2015)

Prince Bandar bin Sultan, right receives Mideast envoy Tony Blair, the ex-prime minister of Britain after his arrival in Jiddah, Saudi Arabia.  Bandar bin Sultan, was accused of direct support for al-Qaeda before the 9/11 attacks (undated). (Mint Press, February 15, 2015)

Known and documented, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey and Pakistan have been harboring Al Qaeda affiliated terrorists for more than twenty years.

In accordance with George W. Bush’s September 2001 address to the House and the Senate, America’s staunchest allies –which routinely provide support to terrorists– should have been categorized as “hostile regimes”. Yet in practice, these “nations that provide a safe haven to terrorism” are acting on behalf of the US. They are in permanent and close liaison with Washington and NATO headquarters in Brussels.

“You are either with us or with the terrorists”, said George W. in the wake of 9/11. In fact the US government is both “with us” and “with the terrorists”. The United States is the ultimate “state sponsor of terrorism” which has entrusted its allies (Saudi Arabia, et al) with the tasks of recruitment and training of terrorists. 

Flash Forward: NATO and The Islamic State (ISIS)

State sponsorship of terrorism prevails, with NATO playing a central role in the process of financing, training and recruitment of terrorists. According to Israeli intelligence sources,  NATO and the Turkish High Command have been involved in the recruitment of ISIS and Al Nusrah mercenaries from the outset of the Syrian insurgency in March 2011.

 “a campaign to enlist thousands of Muslim volunteers in Middle East countries and the Muslim world to fight alongside the Syrian rebels. The Turkish army would house these volunteers, train them and secure their passage into Syria. (DEBKAfile, NATO to give rebels anti-tank weapons, August 14, 2011.)

Similarly, Western Special Forces and Western intelligence operatives had integrated the ranks of the ISIS. British Special Forces and MI6 have been involved in training jihadist rebels in Syria. In turn, US, Canada embassy officials are in liaison with terrorist entities.

Update (March 18, 2015)

Concluding Remarks

What should be clear to Western public opinion is that “the war on terrorism” is a lie. The architects of terrorism are the Western governments and their intelligence services. The anti-terrorism legislation serves the following objectives: 

1. It conveys the illusion that Western society is threatened by Muslim terrorists and that Western governments are committed to the security of their citizens. This in itself constitutes the basis of the demonization campaign directed against Muslims;

2. It presents the “Global War on Terrorism” against an outside enemy as a legitimate undertaking, thereby providing a justification for US-NATO’s wars of aggression;

3. It protects the political and intelligence architects of terrorism. It upholds the legitimacy of the “State sponsors of terrorism” (State officials in high office) and their intelligence services involved in the covert financing, recruitment and training of terrorists on behalf of the Western military alliance;

4. “The Global War on Terrorism” is a criminal undertaking. Those who uphold the truth will be targeted. The Anti-terrorism legislation will be used against  those who question the  validity of the “Global War on Terrorism” consensus. That campaign has already commenced through the targeting of so-called “conspiracy theorists”.

 Israeli links to Al Qaeda/ISIL now reported by corporate media

For well over a decade, WMR's editor has been reporting on the links between Israel and the terrorist group known as "Al Qaeda," particularly in reference to the attacks of 9/11. The Wall Street Journal, which has provided the government of Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu with editorial support, recently reported that Israel has provided logistical support in Syria to Al Qaeda and its affiliate, Jabhat al-Nusra. The paper reported that Al-Nusra "hasn't bothered Israel since seizing the border area last summer" along the Golan Heights. In fact, the core Al Qaeda and its official branches have never "bothered" Israel. Israel has provided medical assistance to some 2000 Syrians, a number of them members of the Nusa Front and Al Qaeda.

Recently, the leader of Lebanon's Druze Progressive Socialist Party, Walid Jumblatt, who has been an erratic on-and-off supporter of Israel, concluded an agreement with the Al Nusra Front and its Syrian Al Qaeda affiliate. Jumblatt concluded the agreement even though his fellow Druze in Idlib, Syria have been given an ultimatum by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) to convert to Wahhabi Islam and destroy their shrines and mausoleums to their religious icons or face execution. Jumblatt is reported by the Lebanese press to have arranged for the forced conversions of the Idlib Druze in exchange for their lives using the offices of the United Arab Emirates.

It has also been reported in the Lebanese press that Israel has helped arrange for contacts, using Jordanian intelligence interlocutors, between Al Nusra/Al Qaeda and the Syrian Druze. Israel has offered military and intelligence support to the Syrian Druze if they attack Syrian government forces and their Lebanese Hezbollah allies in Syria.

 
The word is out on ISIL or "Daesh" -- it is made in Israel. Left: Graffiti on wall in Ma'an, Jordan.

Arab media has also reported that Iraqi Hezbollah captured three U.S.-Israeli "advisers," along with their U.S. and Israeli passports, and a fourth Israeli citizen in possession of a passport from an unnamed Persian Gulf country, at an ISIL command center in Mosul province. The ISIL command center was captured by Iraqi special forces troops in "Operation Scorpion Sting" after word reached the authorities in Baghdad that U.S. and Israeli advisers had helped set up a state-of-the-art command center in Tal Abat, in Mosul province. WMR previously reported that Iraqi troops and local Sunni tribes have witnessed Israeli commandos handing over weapons to ISIL guerrillas in Anbar province

Other Israeli fingerprints on ISIL: The Israeli press reported that gardeners in the northern Israeli city of Nazareth Illit discovered a bag containing about 25 new black-and-white ISIL flags. The discovery of the flags further implicates the Israeli government in providing not only military and logistical support to ISIL, but propaganda support, as well. Israeli picnickers on the Golan Heights amused themselves by watching through field glasses and telescopes ISIL/Al Nusra rebels battling Syrian army units from the Golan highlands. Never once were the Israelis Israelis concerned about receiving fire from ISIL/Al Nusra positions. Turkish foreign minister Mevlut Cavusoglu revealed that Turkish authorities arrested a foreign intelligence agent, believed to be an asset of the Canadian Security and Intelligence Service (CSIS), who was charged with helping three British schoolgirls travel from Britain through Turkey and then into Syria to join ISIL. Under the Stephen Harper government, Canadian intelligence has been ordered to assist Mossad in all matters requested by the Israelis. The arrested agent is Mohammed Mehmet Rashid, aka "Doctor Mehmet Rashid," Mohammed al Rashid, and Mohammad Al Rashed, who reported to Bruno Saccomani, the Canadian ambassador to Jordan and Iraq and a former Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) officer who was the head of Harper’s personal security detail until he was appointed ambassador to Amman. Saccomani was criticized by other RCMP officers for his "bullying" tactics. The appointment was roundly criticized by the Canadian opposition because Saccomani had no diplomatic experience. Al Rashid met the three British school girls at Gaziantep near the Syrian border and personally delivered them into ISIL hands in Syria. Saccomani served as the RCMP liaison officer at the Canadian embassy in Rome in 1997 where he developed a close working relationship with Israeli intelligence and law enforcement officials. Russian President Vladimir Putin's aide Alexander Prokhanov charged last December that Mossad was training ISIL's leadership. NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden revealed that British and U.S. intelligence and Mossad worked together to create ISIL in an operation dubbed "Hornet's Nest." News reports from around the Middle East revealed that Abu Bakr Al Baghdad, the self-proclaimed ISIL "caliph" who was photographed in Syria with visiting U.S. Senator John McCain. received a year oif intensive language and Islamic theology training from Mossad handlers. Adrian Kaba, who represents Sweden's ruling Social Democratic Party on the Malmo City Council and the regional government, wrote in 2014 that Mossad provided training to ISIL. Kaba wrote on his Facebook page that “ISIS is being trained by the Israeli Mossad. Muslims are not waging war, they are being used as pawns by other peoples’ game." Israeli foreign minister Avigdor Lieberman suggested ISIL-style beheadings for Israeli Arabs suspected of supporting terrorism.             One would think that committed Islamist jihadis would know in what direction to pray to Mecca for photo ops like those above. These photos are yet another example of the artificial Israeli and Western intelligence construct of ISIL.
