GORDON DUFF: BUSH “EVIL DOERS” NOTHING BUT “COVER,” TERROR LEADERS A MYTH

GULBUDDIN HIKMATYAR, “BUSH TERRORIST MASTERMIND” AND BIN LADEN ASSOCIATE WORKING FOR U.S.?

WHAT ELSE HAVE WE BEEN LYING ABOUT?

By Gordon Duff STAFF WRITER/Senior Editor

For many months, our sources in Pakistan, including the country’s top military advisers, have been telling us that “top terrorist” Gulbuddin Hikmatyar, a man being hunted by the Delta Force, CIA and thousands of American troops, was advising American negotiations to end the war in Afghanistan.  We had been told that he had been a “trusted source” for many years, including the years that the US listed him as a top bin Laden lieutenant.  If this was true, and we have since learned it is, then most of what we had all been told about the Bush “war on terror” had been total baloney.

Friends in Afghanistan have known Hikmatyar all his life.  Some don’t care for him much, although he was Prime Minister in 93 and 94.  During the war against the Soviet Union, Hikmatyar was the primary CIA contact in Afghanistan, channeling nearly $1 billion dollars in aid to fighters there assisting the CIA’s top asset, a Saudi named Usama bin Laden.  I had wanted to meet with Hikmatyar but was warned it would be a violation of law, even for a journalist, and I would be arrested, as so many others have been, not just for talking to him, but for knowing people who know him or even communicating with his “associates.”  It was all called “material support of terrorism” and it was all a lie.

Secret prisons were filled with people we now know were actually working with CIA assets, people imprisoned, it seems, to keep their mouths shut.  Similarly, many of the domestic terrorism arrests made, most tied to illegal FISA wiretaps, all overturned in Federal court last week, were also tied, sometimes very remotely, to Hikmatyar, a man I have been told has been working for years to bring peace to Afghanistan, told personally by America’s top allies in the region.  I couldn’t report the truth or interview anyone or I would have ended up in under federal indictment like others I know who got too close to the facts.

IT GOES SO MUCH FURTHER THAN THIS

Last month, Jeff Gates I attended private military briefings in Pakistan.  Along with briefings by various services, our staff from Pakistan and Afghanistan, including Maj. Mujtaba, Gen. Asif Haroon Raja, Dr. Tarik Jan, Fayyaz Shah and others were briefed by former Chairman, JCOS Pakistan Admiral Sirohey, former Army Chief of Staff Mirza Aslam Beg, Dr. S.M. Rahman, former PsyOps Chief, Lt. General Hamid Gul, former Director General ISI and most of the top military staff that coordinated our efforts to remove the Soviets from Afghanistan.   We then met with political party leaders and were briefed by the nations top think tanks.  A few things became more than a bit clear.

Not only did nothing we were told by both official and unofficial sources match up with what was being reported in the news, we were able to verify that America had been involved in a vast and complex campaign of disinformation and deception against the American public, one designed to, not only blame Pakistan and everyone else for the deteriorating situation in the region but that American policies showed clear indications of  America’s real purpose in Afghanistan being something very different than stated.

THE STRANGE CASE OF USAMA BIN LADEN

MARJEH, AFGHANISTAN, SURROUNDED BY OPIUM FIELDS

No group has ever met with people who have personally known all the leaders the Bush administration had designated as terrorist, including bin Laden. Without breaking personal confidences, one thing was clear.  It is a humiliation for Pakistan, a country that is fighting for its life in a war against terrorism that has killed thousands there, including family members of some I met, to have to pretend to hunt for bin Laden, who all of us admitted had died many years before.  In meetings with people whose names, out of courtesy I omit, we all looked across the room from each other and rolled  our eyes back into our heads.  The general agreement is that the Easter Bunny would be easier to find that bin Laden and represents a greater threat to American security.

Bin Laden, himself, is an enigma.  Most of the statements credited him when he was alive were mistranslated.  According to those who are the world’s foremost experts on bin Laden and military operations in the region, bin Laden never had a major following nor was he ever in control of any worldwide terrorist organization.  In fact, the other major terrorist leader, Mullah Omar, when described by close associates of the American effort in Afghanistan, is also described as never a terrorist leader of any kind.  Mullah Omar is spoken of, in general, with great affection and seen as a folk hero by millions.  Where Hikmatyar has enemies and a reputation for brutality while working for the CIA, Mullah Omar is greatly respected.  Nobody sees Omar, or most of the other leaders we list as major international terrorists as anything but minor players with little more than bodyguards and household staff.  Everyone “in the know” claims the US simply makes it all up just to fool the public.

WHY TARGET BIN LADEN?

Bin Laden’s history is a strange one.  His family has had direct ties to the Bush family for years, with close friendships and complex financial interrelationships.  On at least one occasion, George “W” Bush was bailed out of a business failure by bin Laden money.  The bin Laden’s were the portal that former Reagan administration cabinet officers used to get into business with Saudi Arabia, making billions in profits through takeovers of several major American arms companies.  Nearly 100 billion dollars, most from “Operation Desert Storm” countries is managed by Bush and his associates, investing in everything from arms, to slave labor operations in the Middle East to the ownership of Dunkin Donuts.

President George “W” Bush’s first priority after 9/11 was to get all bin Laden family members out of the United States and away from the FBI.  The next flight out, when every other plane was grounded, went to Israel.

What we do know about Usama bin Laden is that he denied any direct involvement in 9/11.  Any reports to the contrary have all been discredited and traced back to agencies fronting for Israeli intelligence services.  Another thing we know is that Usama bin Laden worked for the CIA for years.  We are also told that he was moved from place to place on American planes and received medical care at US facilities for advanced kidney disease.  FBI translator Sibel Edmonds has confirmed that bin Laden and other terrorist leader were regular passengers on US government flights.  The FBI called these passengers, “bin Ladens” in official documents.  Attorney General John Ashcroft ordered Sibel Edmonds silenced for 6 years.  Now the press has a “blackout” on her testimony, statements supported by documentation that prove many high officials of the Bush administration and members of congress to be involved in espionage against the United States.

CITY OF MARJEH, AFGHANISTAN. 80,000 PEOPLE?

Though never charged with any crimes tied to 9/11, Usama bin Laden was the subject of the biggest manhunt in world history, a manhunt that culminated in his killing on December 15, 2001.  Was Usama bin Laden killed to shut him up?  In his last video interview, while actually alive, bin Laden suggested that the US look elsewhere for those who were responsible for the 9/11 attacks.  Bin Laden believed Israel was responsible.  Now Israel has been caught distributing phony bin Laden tapes, currently relegated to “audio only” that, after the fiasco of the “Crotch Bomber” last Christmas, only drives more and more people to broad suspicions of Israeli complicity in the planning and execution of the similar but larger scale attacks on 9/11.

When “terrorist” Abdulmohammed  was quickly loaded onto the plane for Detroit, no ticket, no passport, after being strip searched by Dutch based Israeli security officers, his small and almost harmless bomb must have been a surprise to everyone, everyone but the other passenger who video taped all of it and was taken away by Homeland Security in front of witnesses, taken away but never arrested or charged.

PUTIN SUSPICIOUS ABOUT RUSSIAN SUBWAY BOMBINGS

Israel and America have a long and complicated relationship in the Caucasus’.   America’s attempt to “surround” Russia by bringing the Ukraine and Georgia into NATO was part of a broader plan to destabilize the Caspian basin, a massive source of natural gas and oil and a center of a “pipeline war” between two groups.  One group is led by Israel, Turkey and the US against the Russian company Gazprom, world’s largest supplier of natural gas.  By 2009, Gazprom has secured all the regions gas supplies, leaving the Israeli, Turkish and US consortium with empty pipelines and only one possible source of gas supplies, Iran.  Thus, the war rhetoric about Iran and nuclear weapons has been reaching crescendo proportions.  Without this gas revenue, Israel, Turkey and the US will be forced to survive on narcotics revenue alone.

Previous attacks inside Russia, tied to Chechen militants have killed hundreds, even thousands.  Russia had tied support and training of the terrorists to Israel and the United States.  Now the rush is on to convince Putin that Israel and the US were not involved in the recent terror attacks in Moscow.  This has been made much more difficult because of the obvious Mossad “footprint” on the Detroit bombing attempt and increasing evidence of Israeli complicity in the Mumbai attacks and operations in Afghanistan.

The traditional analytical tools of the intelligence trade:  1.  timing  2.  who profits  3.  who has the capability  4.  who has the influence to “spin” the news and suppress an investigation

These standards, things the Russians know very well, are pointing directly at a conspiracy, especially considering the horrible diplomatic failures of Netanyahu’s Washington visit.  Some very “fast talking” is being done, you can be assured of this.  Russia has teeth, sharp and long.

GULBUDDIN AND THE FAILED MYTH OF INTERNATIONAL TERRORISM

Usama bin Laden always talked about justice for the Palestinian people.  For decades, Americans had been fed an unending diet of stories of Palestinian terrorist and a threatened Israel.  That “cover story ” is now coming apart.  With Israel one of the world’s richest nations and largest arms exporters, the regions primary super-power, even threatening Western Europe with nuclear attack, talking about “poor Israel” just doesn’t fly anymore.  Instead of coming to the US begging for aid, Israel now comes here to spit in our faces openly.  They still take our money, mind you, but they also remind us to “mind our own business” and let them deal with the ethnic cleansing of Palestine uninterrupted.

While the American press has, over the past 20 years, fallen under Israeli control, the myth of massive international terrorist organizations intent on destroying the United States has been endlessly repeated, not only by the press, but by political leaders benefiting from scare tactics and everyone out to make a quick buck on replacing the “cold war” with a new imaginary terror war.  In fact, there is absolutely no reason for any Islamic group to care one way or another about anything the United States does anymore.  The brutal Shah is gone from Iran and our continued support of the oil states is not a serious issue, not serious enough to support terrorism against the US.  There is only one rationale for any attack on the US and that is our support of Israel.

Problem is, attacks don’t come when they are “right” for the would be terrorists, they come when they are convenient for Israel.

The traditional analytical tools of the intelligence trade:  1.  timing  2.  who profits  3.  who has the capability  4.  who has the influence to “spin” the news and suppress an investigation

Thus, when I had been told all that time that the great terrorist leader, one busy planning attacks against the United States, Gulbuddin Hikmatyar, has been working with us all along, and that other “major leaders” were never leaders at all and that bin Laden was never really the “bin Laden” we thought, it all comes apart.  Combining that with the FBI revelations that the US has been flying, not only terrorists around but plane loads of opium and it all falls apart.  There are no terrorist leaders, there are no international terrorist organizations and those “all too timely” terror attacks we seem to have are no more real than the phony bin Laden tapes the Israelis send us.

If Gulbuddin was ours when we were supposedly out hunting him, was bin Laden also?  Mullah Omar?  The others?  In fact, we seemed to have gotten out of the Bush years, with not only no credible intelligence on anything but even our useless information has now proven unusable as it also was illegally obtained through wiretaps that violated criminal law.

Is it any surprise that dozens of people died today in attacks in Iraq, the country we supposedly pacified at a cost in lives and money that has yet to be tabulated?

HOW FAR WOULD WE GO?

When I am told it would be unthinkable for a government, ours, Israel or anyone to kill the 3000 dead from 9/11 I simply remind them that we killed 5000 Americans in Iraq based on a known scam.  If you can kill 5000, you will do anything.  Credibility is dead.  Phony terrorists were arrested and locked up, tortured for years, some simply picked up off the streets, others bought from drug gangs, many others simply had names that we spelled wrong.  Protecting America from terror during the Bush years was handled with less reality than professional wrestling.

If the wiretapping was illegal and the torture illegal and the invasion of Iraq was illegal, how many laws would we violate, how many would we kill and for what reasons?  With no news anyone can trust and a government that simply makes things up, everything is conspiracy theory, especially anything the government or corporate news spews.

“BRANDING,” OUR METHOD OF PUTTING AN “EVIL DOER” MASK OVER OUR OWN GHOULISH CONTINENCE

Generations of Americans have lived through seeing enemies “branded” like we were selling soap.  First America supported Hitler, financing him to the hilt, guiding him in his war on the Jews and pushing his suppression of communists.  Then he became an “evil doer” and had to die.  He had been the darling of the American right, veterans organizations and industrialists, for awhile at least.  Hitler is only one of the murderous dictators that America supported.  Some we stuck with to the end, others like Saddam or Noriega, we hunted down when they became “inconvenient” or threatened to open their mouths.

When the Taliban were the Mujaheddin, they were our friends.  Did they become enemies because bin Laden lived there or because they ended all opium production?  I think our Marjeh operation answers that one pretty well.   Photos of the region show a strange things.  Marjeh, as described, doesn’t seem to exist.  When our victory involves handing out cash, have we, perhaps, broadened the definition of that term a bit much.

Col. Ghulam Sakhi, an Afghan National Police commander here, says his informants have told him that at least 30 Taliban have come to one Marine outpost here to take money from the Marines as compensation for property damage or family members  killed during the operation in February.

“You shake hands with them, but you don’t know they are Taliban,” Colonel Sakhi said. “They have the same clothes, and the same style. And they are using the money against the Marines. They are buying I.E.D.’s and buying ammunition, everything.”

I think of the stress the press goes through suppressing the videos of dead children and destroyed schools in Gaza.  “Branding” Palestinians as terrorists and Israelis as victims is turning into an almost impossible task, nearly as impossible as keeping the lid on 9/11 or inventing Iran’s nuclear program.  Only a few weeks ago, we were busy telling the world how Pakistan’s nuclear weapons were ready to be seized by terrorists.  What happened to that story?  Where do the “fairy tales” of the mainstream news go when they get so ridiculous that they become an embarrassment?

  3. What we are talking about here is incompetence in government. If it is not incompetence then it must be criminal Gordon. I was with 2nd Bn 4th Marines at Con Thien September 1967. I lived through horrendous shelling. I know for instance there was more incoming then the Department of Defense claimed. My Battalion commander the late Colonel Wes Hammond (ret) USMC told me after being wounded he became operations officer for 3rd Marine division.

    Col. Hammond told me Artillery at Con Thein was severely mismanaged. It was done so poorly it might have caused Marine deaths. Who did the mismanagement? you have to look at those in charge of setting up our artillery. Who was this person? Non other then Robert Mcfarlane Ollie North’s boss of the Reagan years. I’m not making this up. Wes Hammond said this to me.

  4. The first international relations class I ever took at the university the professor said Russia even if it were a democracy it would be a threat to the US corporate interest.

    First our government does not represent Americans. It is all about corporate profit. Again the late Wes Hammond said to me one time the problem with fighting the war in Vietnam was the pentagon kept telling military folks if they followed corporate orders they would get jobs and promotions. The result was everyone was trying to please the war mongers in Washington. Today the Bush people left in Government and media are trying like hell to please AIPAC. If we do not attack Iran I will be very surprised.

    There are so many international problems out there, with such little effort and honest people who are transparent enough while having the energy to resolve them.

  5. outstanding post — thank you

    the same spin that paints israel as victim, paints wall streeters as victims who need to have the citizenry finance their bonuses

    what’s disheartening is how americans fall for this

  6. Excellent points. Is it true the Dept of Homeland Security is funding development of agonizing, near-lethal crowd control weapons whose only intended target would be American citizens? An exception I’ve read about identifies mind-altering drugs in some aerosol fashion for use against citizens. Obama wants a domestic “army” as well equipped and funded as our military. For use against whom? Many police forces appear more than willing to take on a paramilitary role, and even in my small town there are new motorcycle cops dressed like Gestapo riding around. Am I crazy, or are cops around the country starting to act like occupation forces? None of this, not any of it, could possibly have befallen this nation without its enemies first taking control of all venues of public discourse as they have.

  7. In a Hollywood movie Hekmatyar would be the evil foil to the heroic Masud. He would be an angry Islamic fundamentalist dressed in black, throwing acid in the faces of unveiled women and assassinating local tribal leaders that might rival his power. He would be the pawn of foreign secret service paymasters like the ISI, CIA, and Prince Turki of Saudi Arabia. He would unfeelingly sacrifice peasants for his cause, rocket the helpless civilians mixed in with his enemies, and his ruthless ambition would prevent the creation of a new peace. Unfortunately, in real life Hekmatyar was all these things.

    Hekmatyar was one of the early Islamic rebels that came out of the University of Kabul. In the beginning Hekmatyar and Masud worked together. During the Soviet occupation Hekmatyar ran one of the two largest mujahideen organizations out of Peshawar in Pakistan. There he became the favorite of the Pakistani secret service, the ISI. Billions of dollars in US aid flowed through the ISI to Hekmatyar. Nervous CIA agents wondered whether Hekmatyar hated the United States as much as the Soviets, but the ISI assured them he was ok. United States money and weapons flowed to our enemy for over a decade.

    When Masud finally defeated Najibullah in 1992, all the mujahideen factions converged on Kabul. Masud outwitted Hekmatyar and slipped into the city before him. A round robin of side-swapping, backstabbing, and massacre among Hekmatyar, Masud, Dostum, and Mazari followed. The citizens and buildings of Kabul were the big losers. The problem was that Masud could not be president as he was a Tajik, not a Pashtun. Afghan kings had been Pashtun for hundreds of years. Hekmatyar was the most powerful Pashtun, and had he not been such an evil sod, Masud might have accepted some kind of deal. In the end neither prevailed. The ISI switched support from the stalemated Hekmatyar and backed Mullah Omar, the new leader of the Taliban. Without ISI support, Hekmatyar’s men deserted wholesale to Mullah Omar, and he was a contender no longer.

    Today Hekmatyar is finally the enemy of the United States that he should have been all along. He either took refuge in Iran, or sneaks around the tribal zone, periodically calling for holy war against the Americans. Sometimes his name is used by others, mostly as someone to blame for car bombs and other such mischief.

    • and if masun was a gentleman. of all the warlords perhaps the most despicable was masud and yet this monster has been turned into a hero. it is difficult to sustain lies of this magnitude. there are too many people out there who know what masud and the northern alliance actually did to thousands of innocent helpless civilians. you can only sell your crap to the retards who watch fox.

      having said that, hekmatyar is a nutcase himself. but please spare us the bullshit about masud and northern alliance.

  8. London, Apr 4(ANI): Fears of a terror attack during the UK General Election have been further fueled by reports that the Al-Qaeda has urged British fanatics to build DIY cruise missiles to attack passenger jets.

    According to reports, an Al-Qaeda website explains how to build missiles with solid fuel engines using operating manuals for the Russian 107mm Katyusha rocket. Numerous links are also available for guides to make explosives, including C4 plastic explosive, acetone peroxide and TNT.

    The same site was used to explain how to bring down a jet before former London student Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab tried to blow up a passenger jet over Detroit on last year’s Christmas Day.

    Another recent posting shows a sophisticated computer-designed plan for a two-stage missile that would drop an explosive device on to a target by parachute.

    “Isn’t it ironic that the two capitals of the war against Islam, Washington DC and London, have also become among the centres of Western Jihad?” The Daily Express quoted Anwar al-Awlaki, a radical on the run in the Yemen, as saying on the website….

    • Matthew

      consider yourself “had” by the Israelis. Abdul Mutallab’s dad works for the Mossad in Nigeria. So do the guys in Yemen.
      Funny…really funny.

  9. For more years than I wish to acknowledge, the point has been how to stop our descent into the Satanic “NEW WORLD ORDER”. I refuse to let “them” turn me into a Barabbas, as perfidy and treason become modus operandi.
    I know how to war in the flesh. I am learning how to war in the Spirit. I am convinced the latter MUST lead the former.
    My questions today are these:
    1. How can a Nation of professing Christians look to people of one political bent or another for salvation, and NOT have the Christ displeased with said action?
    2. If Christ saved YOU … why not our nation?
    3. Who is willing, personally, to undo 1 Samuel 8:7 and do 2 Chronicles 7:14a?
    This is not preaching. It is the result of many years of failure to change “the system”.

  10. Gordon Duff :: “Evil Doers” Nothing But “Cover,” Terror Leaders A Myth

    DAMN STRAIGHT!

  11. I recently received an email (from a convert to the Jewish nation) telling me, “nothing compares to what the Germans did to the Jews in WWII).

    I submit that the Israel lobby was behind Roe Vs. WadeSimple question, who was really behind the Roe Vs. Wade dscision? Who’s having abortions (religion)? 1973-2009 Est. total 39,000,000 in USA

    Women identifying themselves as Protestants obtain 37.4% of all abortions in the U.S.; Catholic women account for 31.3%, Jewish women account for 1.3%, and women with no religious affiliation obtain 23.7% of all abortions. 18% of all abortions are performed on women who identify themselves as “Born-again/Evangelical”.

    Then comsider that birth control pills where pushed by Jewish controlled corporations, factor in that around this time period (mid 70′s) Jewish males where instructed to find healthy Anglo females, get them pregnant, and convert them.

    Just read somewhere that Israel has been moving “their people” into north western Austraila and Tasmania.

    • Night Flyer. Regards to Israeli’s migrating to Australia. In South America there is an effort to align South America with Israel’s goals. But first they have to convert Latins by dumbing them down to bible based churches.

      Not sure if it is Israeli, but it certainly is American fundamentalists who are financing this effort turning these marginal Catholics into bible quoting drones. You already have poor people Church groups going to Israel for fellowships. Where do they get the money?

    • There’s a popular TV show in Australia on their border patrols, security checks, etc. I forget the name, but I’ve seen it enough times. On one show, a Hasidic man was stopped by customs in Sydney for bringing in drugs. He claimed he was both a law professor who taught in Israel AND had legal status as an Australian Aboriginal. These people are all over the flights to and from San Francisco, LA and Sydney, and their rudeness and hostility are palpable. There’s a book out, extensively reviewed on Amazon, called something like “Judaism Revealed,” by Paul Hoffmann, an expert in Talmudic studies, which apparently gets into what they’re all about. Haven’t read it, but they seem to be about a lot more than becoming everyday Aussies.

      • Sorry, need to correct the above. The Hasidic man was bringing in inedible, leafy plant materials that were all heavily infected with rust-like plant diseases, and not drugs.

  12. If you’re going to write on a topic and claim expertise and credibility, try to spell Gulbuddin’s last name correctly, ok?

    • Eric,
      You are mistaken about your spelling. Please check on this. The western press has been getting it wrong for some time. HIK, not HEK.
      Sorry. I am used to reading papers in Pakistan and Afghanistan. If I need an editor, I will give you a call, though. We could be neighbours, or is it neighbors?

  15. Anyone old enough, and that includes all of those who are of Vietnam era age or before and still alive to the years after, and paying even a little bit of attention to how our intelligence agencies worked and were caught doing, laws passed as to regime change assassinations etc., then were really paying attention to not only the Afghan/Soviet debacle but the installation of and rise of leaders like Saddam and our connections with that whole region, Should have been Quickly Suspect as to anything that administration was saying, Especially as it quickly lost interest in bin Laden, another CIA Arms connection, and started the drums beating towards Iraq!! The only ones who wouldn’t, as to veterans of Vietnam and their pals, were those still trying to justify the fantasy that we were in Vietnam fighting an ideology called communism and stay in denial about what is done In Our Names!

    • Jim,
      The bigger question that should concern all Americans, is whether weapon component technology was passed to a country while everyone was focused on the Middle East? And did someone greatly profit from this activity, through another cover-up? We have Federal Agencies that monitor this activity, so what if someone ordered them to look the other way and stop their investigation. Would you be concerned about this National Security Risk?
      Why is the US concerned about supplying advanced weapon systems to TWN? Did someone make a fortune PRIOR to this sudden need? I guess it’s time to stop.

  16. Gordon,

    Good story. I worked around the globe during this time, and there were other cover-ups. These will be costly to the US in future, dangerous games and deals were being made during this time. In a week or so, I want to send you some information about what happened in another country, and covered up as well. I believe it’s time the truth is surfaced and potential damage known, who profited and how?

    One veteran to another. Veterans take care of soldiers in the field, regardless of where your working in the world. The battlefield is often much larger then the war zone, and criminals that fuel war through other countries.

  17. G, you have to remember; he’s CURIOUS GEORGE.

  18. We need to SWIFTBOAT all the politicians who take money from AIPAC….
    Spread the word please.
    Great article Gordon…thanks again. and God bless
    Jim USN retired.

  19. Frankly, at this point, I don’t even blame scum like Obama, Bush et al. anymore, or even their bloodthirsty Jewish supremacist handlers, for that matter. The reason this manifest evil is upon us is primarily because of the corruption of the “average” “American”.

    I wonder, why are people still joining the “U.S. Armed Forces”? Why are people still voting for “Establishment” politicians? Why do small town folk all over this “great” country still see “the Troops” as “heroes” fighting for our “freedom”, rather than the defacto Zionist crusaders that they are, who are actually helping our rulers to take away our freedoms and destroy us?

    Have you ever experienced the utter futility of trying to reason with some of these “people”, our neighbors? Firstly, they’re apathetic. And to the extent they’re not, they’re ignorant – generally having a completely fraudulent view of History, for example. On top of that, they’re intellectually lazy, and seemingly devoid of critical thinking skills…they’re simply unable to draw a reasonable conclusion from a set of unambiguous, self-evident facts. Lastly, they’re completely morally incompetent; i.e., unable to grasp such simple concepts as not-doing-to-someone-else-that-which-you-wouldn’t-want-done-to-yourself kind of a thing.

    In any case, I was in the service, too. (I just missed Vietnam). After that, I got a college degree, and subsequently worked in and around DOD for 20+ years, basically until I woke up.

    And if I woke up, they can wake up. They refuse. They’re “deceived” because they want to be deceived, studiously avoiding anything that doesn’t comport with the alternate reality they live in.

    Anyway, here we are, comprising maybe 1% or 2% of the population (those of us that acknowledge and appreciate the horror of the heinous serial crimes our despotic rulers are committing), while our neighbors generally don’t see much of a problem.

    So what to do now? As I see it, after the bombs fall on Iran, and China pulls the plug on the dollar, and the agents provocateurs do their thing and we have Martial Law and God only knows what else, (IOW, after TSHTF), it won’t be Obama or Bush or their Zionist Masters out there shooting people down in the streets, it’ll be our neighbors.

    Thus I’m now of the opinion that the most “patriotic” thing a person could do right now is to move out of the U.S. and let the overwhelming majority enjoy the government that they need, want and deserve – right up until the missiles come raining down on them.

  20. This is one of the rare web sites where the truth will be told about phony terrorism.

    If most Americans learn the truth about Israeli terrorism and murder, the USS Liberty, 911 attacks, Gaza aka the deranged evil, concentration camp etc. if the American people will demand our government stops supporting Israel and create a worldwide boycott to stop the madness Israel inflicts on the Palestinians.

    If a worldwide boycott does occur with the raging racist, egomaniac leaders of the Israel’s Likud party declare that the boycott is an act of war and threaten the world with its 200 to 400 nuclear weapons?

  21. The lines between the Bush Administration’s Mid East agenda and the oxymoron of the CIA & DIA being able to supply ACCURATE data in Iraq, Afghanistan & Iran must have reached the point where any similarity to reality was a happy coincidence.

  22. Wow! Great article Mr. Duff!

  23. Great writing..!! Mr. Duff…

    At least people like you are still alive who dare to reveal the truth no matter how hard it seems…

    You seem to have great deal of knowledge.. if you are really true..why dont you disseminate this news to other media who are not puppets of Israel.. In that way it will come to many people…

    And you better take care of yourself lest someone may be looking for you to stop their exposure.

    God bless You..
