New York Car Bomb Incident: Another False Flag?
See David Ray Griffin's
important book titled, "Osama Bin Laden: Dead or Alive?" In his latest April 30
article, "Did Osama Bin Laden Confess to the 9/11 Attacks, and Did He Die in
2001," Griffin notes his book's convincing evidence of his death, that if so,
proves all subsequent video and audio tapes attributed to him are
fakes.
According to Hactor Factor's Neal Krawetz, bogus
ones are characterized by low quality visual and audio splices and more. His
analysis of a September 2007 video showed bin Laden's beard black when in
earlier images it's gray. It also had him dressed in a white hat, shirt and
yellow sweater, precisely the same attire as in October 2004. In addition, the
background, lighting, desk and camera angle were the
same.
Most obvious were the edits, showing obvious
splices, at least six video ones and even more for audio that appeared to be
words and phrases spliced together.
Videos like these are easy to make as are special
effects clever enough to make anyone look like bin Laden, convincingly enough to
fool the public, especially when media reports hype
them…..
"Dubai....was
the backdrop of a secret meeting between Osama bin Laden and the local CIA agent
in July (2001). A partner of the administration of the American
Hospital....claims that (bin Laden) stayed (there) between the 4th and 14th of
July (and) received visits from many members of his family as well as prominent
Saudis and Emiratis. (During the same period), the local CIA agent, known to
many in Dubai, was seen taking (the hospital's) main elevator (to) bin Laden's
room." Why not if he was a valued asset. -- Stephen

On May 1, New York Times writers Al Baker and
William Rashbaum headlined, "Police Find Car Bomb in Times Square,"
saying:
"A crude car bomb of propane, gasoline and
fireworks was discovered in a 'smoking' Nissan Pathfinder in the heart of Times
Square on Saturday evening, prompting the evacuation of thousands of tourists
and theatergoers on a warm and busy night."
Mayor Michael Bloomberg claimed "We were very
lucky. We avoided what could have been a very deadly
event."
For much of the evening, Midtown New York, from
43rd - 48th streets, was closed, heightening fear reported for hours on cable
news shows, including statements by Bloomberg, Governor David Paterson, Police
Commissioner Raymond Kelly and Deputy Commissioner Paul Browne, saying the bomb
"appeared (to be) in the process of detonating, but it
malfunctioned."
Good luck or something else? We've seen this too
often not to be suspicious. This one, like others, has all the earmarks of a
false flag, more likely given its coverage and location in Times Square on
Saturday night, followed by a May 2 video saying the Pakistani Taliban claimed
responsibility.
Who could imagine they had a branch office in New
York, and no one even noticed. At least that's the impression from media
disinformation, hyped to spread fear and prepare the public for what's to come,
perhaps something much worse.
In addition, like previous times, a suspect is
already in custody, a Muslim, of course, as part of the anti-Islamic post-9/11
rage, and given how abusively he may be treated (including frightening threats
of life in prison or the death penalty), perhaps will confess to anything or
make it appear that he did so headlines can blare
it.
According to Reuters, a statement on an Islamic
web site (http://www.muslm.net/vb/showthread.php?t=387309)
said:
"The Pakistani Taliban announces its
responsibility for the New York attack in revenge for the two leaders
al-Baghdadi and al-Muhajir and Muslim martyrs."
Videos are easy to fake, including strategically
timed bin Laden ones, exposed by digital experts as fakes, aside from convincing
evidence he died in 2001.
See David Ray Griffin's important book titled,
"Osama Bin Laden: Dead or Alive?" In his latest April 30 article, "Did Osama Bin
Laden Confess to the 9/11 Attacks, and Did He Die in 2001," Griffin notes his
book's convincing evidence of his death, that if so, proves all subsequent video
and audio tapes attributed to him are fakes.
According to Hactor Factor's Neal Krawetz, bogus
ones are characterized by low quality visual and audio splices and more. His
analysis of a September 2007 video showed bin Laden's beard black when in
earlier images it's gray. It also had him dressed in a white hat, shirt and
yellow sweater, precisely the same attire as in October 2004. In addition, the
background, lighting, desk and camera angle were the
same.
Most obvious were the edits, showing obvious
splices, at least six video ones and even more for audio that appeared to be
words and phrases spliced together.
Videos like these are easy to make as are special
effects clever enough to make anyone look like bin Laden, convincingly enough to
fool the public, especially when media reports hype
them.
Post-9/11, it's vital to remind the public by
strategically timed "Enemy Number One" bin Laden incidents and the "security
threat" he represents. If he didn't exist, he'd have to be invented so why not
perpetuate the myth, omitting that he was a CIA asset and likely remained one
until his death.
Noteworthy is that CBS News anchor Dan Rather
reported that he was admitted to a Rawalpindi, Pakistan hospital on September
10, 2001, and France's Le Figaro said:
"Dubai....was the backdrop of a secret meeting
between Osama bin Laden and the local CIA agent in July (2001). A partner of the
administration of the American Hospital....claims that (bin Laden) stayed
(there) between the 4th and 14th of July (and) received visits from many members
of his family as well as prominent Saudis and Emiratis. (During the same
period), the local CIA agent, known to many in Dubai, was seen taking (the
hospital's) main elevator (to) bin Laden's room." Why not if he was a valued
asset.
On May 2, the Israeli news website Debka.com
featured an "Exclusive Report" saying:
"On April 30, twenty-four hours before a smoking
SUV Nissan containing an improvised bomb was defused (in) Times Square....the
Pakistani Taliban's top bomb-maker, Qari Hussain Mehsud, took 'full
responsibility for the recent attack in the USA' in an audiotape with images on
a You Tube website."
Saying no proof of overseas involvement was
forensically found, "DEBKAfile's counter-terror sources" noted similarities
between the New York bomb and earlier 2005 and 2007 ones in London and Glasgow,
Scotland respectively. In each case, they used propane and failed to detonate -
the Glasgow one, in fact, causing the car used to burn but not cause a major
catastrophe.
DEBKA also quoted Pakistani Taliban leader
Hakimullah Mehsud saying on an April 4 nine minute tape that "The time is very
near when our fedayeen will attack the American states in the major cities."
Earlier, Qari Hussein Mehsud "warned NATO governments to denounce the US and
apologize for the 'massacres in Iraq, Yemen, Afghanistan, and Pakistani tribal
areas - otherwise be prepared for the worst destruction and devastation in their
own countries.' "
A mid-April Debka report had Iran threatening to
retaliate against US cities with nuclear weapons if they're used against Iranian
cities or sites.
"For the first time, DEBKAfile's military sources
(IDF and/or Mossad ones stoking fear) report, Tehran indicated the possibility
of passing nuclear devices to terrorists capable of striking inside the United
States....Although Iran has yet to attain operational nuclear arms, our military
sources believe it does possess the makings of primitive nuclear devices or
'dirty bombs.' "
With no supportive evidence, these type reports
hype fear to prepare the public for what's to come, so if a planned major
terrorist event in a Western city, there's a ready suspect to blame and popular
approval to act.
Noted Previous False
Flags
The historic record is full of false flags, some
especially noteworthy. Below are a few examples:
-- in 1898, America falsely accused Spain of
blowing up the USS Maine in Havana, Cuba harbor. The Spanish-American war
followed;
-- in 1933 Germany, a week before general
elections, the strategically timed Reichstag fire (home of the German
parliament) was blamed on communists. It got President Paul von Hindenburg to
sign an emergency decree. Civil liberties were suspended. Weimar Republic
democracy ended, and Hitler assumed fascist powers after enough Nazis were
elected to assure it;
-- on August 31, 1939, Nazis impersonating Polish
terrorists attacked the Gleiwitz radio station on the border between the two
countries, starting WW II;
-- on December 7, 1941, the Roosevelt
administration succeeded in manipulating Japan to attack Pearl Harbor, giving
FDR the war he wanted from the early 1930s, but had to convince a pacifist
public of the threat; the fleet was also tracked across the Pacific, but Admiral
HE Kimmel wasn't warned or given known intelligence to assure enough mass
casualties for congressional and public support;
-- in 1962, a US Joint Chiefs of Staff proposed
false flag attack never happened because President Jack Kennedy rejected it;
called Operation Northwoods (a part of Operation Mongoose), the scheme included
sinking US ships, shooting down US commercial airliners, blowing up buildings in
US cities, attacking America's Guantanamo base, other incidents, and blaming it
on Cuba as a reason for war;
-- the fake August 1964 Gulf of Tonkin incident
initiating full-scale retaliation against North Vietnam after Congress passed
the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution authorizing war without declaring it; and the
seminal event of our time -
-- September 11, 2001, clear evidence showing it
was a false flag, the Afghan and Iraq wars made possible by fear-mongering blame
on the Al-Qaeda and Saddam Hussein.
On February 16, 2010, a Washington's blog web
site (georgewashington2.blogspot.com) article titled, "Governments ADMIT That
They Carry Out False Flag Terror" listed some examples,
including:
-- the CIA admitting its 1950s role in toppling
Iran's democratically government in 1953;
-- Israel admitting a 1954 attack in Egypt,
including planting bombs in US diplomatic facilities, leaving "evidence" of Arab
involvement;
-- Indonesia's former president, Abdurrahman
Wahid, saying the nation's police or military most likely were involved in the
2002 Bali bombing, killing over 200 people;
-- a former Italian prime minister, judge, and
military counterintelligence head, General Gianadelio Maletti, saying America's
CIA instigated and abetted right wing terrorist groups in the 1970s and earlier,
including bombing a Milan bank in 1969, to rally popular anti-communist support
in Italy and other European countries; and
-- many others, including former Carter
administration National Security Adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski, telling a Senate
committee that a false flag terror attack on US soil might occur to blame Iran
and justify war.
In his 1997 book, "The Grand Chessboard: American
Primacy and its Geostrategic Imperatives," he said:
"Moreover, as America becomes an increasingly
multicultural society, it may find it more difficult to fashion a consensus on
foreign policy issues, except in the circumstance of a truly massive and widely
perceived direct external threat," the kind 9/11 created - predicted, planned,
orchestrated, and carried out to further new world order dominance
globally.
Other False Flag
Examples
(1) The March 2004 Madrid train bombings occurred
three days before Spain's general elections. With no supportive evidence, they
were blamed on Al Qaeda, yet they stoked public fear and were used to warn that
other Western cities were threatened, including in
America.
Nearly always, Muslims are blamed and arrested,
the DEBKAfile citing advance bin Laden tapes threatening to punish Spain for
supporting the Bush administration. This time, Basque separatists were also
named, again without evidence, and the bin Laden tapes were
fakes.
(2) The July 7, 2005 London underground bombings
(called 7/7) were a series of attacks on the city's public transport system
during the morning rush hour for maximum disruption and casualties. At precisely
the same time, an anti-terror drill occurred, simulating real attacks. It was no
coincidence this time or ever, others in America and Britain coming on the same
day as a real event, other notable ones covered
below.
AP reported that the London Israeli embassy
warned Scotland Yard about the 7/7 one in advance, and Israeli Army Radio
reported that "Scotland Yard had intelligence warnings of the attacks a short
time before they occurred," but didn't act or issue warnings. In addition,
Israel's finance minister at the time, Benjamin Netanyahu, was told not to
attend an economic conference in the city where he was scheduled to deliver an
address.
Other dignitaries were also warned, but not the
public. Even without smoking gun proof, the 7/7 attack was a false flag
operation to heighten fear and keep Britain and the West embroiled in
war.
(3) On the morning of the 9/11 attack, the CIA
ran a "pre-planned simulation to explore the emergency response issues that
would be created if a plane were to strike a building." Held at the Agency's
Chantilly, Virginia Reconnaissance Office, AP reported (on August 22, 2002) that
it simulated "a small corporate jet (hitting) one of the four towers....after
experiencing a mechanical failure."
Unmentioned at the time was a later revealed (but
unreported) Homeland Security conference announcement a year later to
commemorate the 9/11 event. Held under the auspices of the National Law
Enforcement and Security Institute, one of its speakers was John Fulton, CIA
Chief of the Strategic War Gaming Division of the National Reconnaissance office
in charge of the operation. Another coincidence, or was something more sinister
afoot?
The previous year in October, the Pentagon
simulated a commercial plane striking the Pentagon, coordinated by its Command
Emergency Response Team and the Defense Protective Services Police. This and the
9/11 exercises are more than coincidental, given what's now known and the
fallout.
(4) On June 30, 2007, a Jeep Cherokee with
propane canisters crashed into Glasgow International Airport's glass doors, the
BBC reporting that it "was in the middle of the doorway burning....The car
didn't actually explode. There were a few pops and bangs which presumably was
the petrol."
The usual suspects were blamed, Al Qaeda and
Islamic terrorists, Prime Minister Gordon Brown
saying:
"We are dealing, in general terms, with people
who are associated with Al Qaeda," followed by his initiating draconian security
measures, hyped by the UK Telegraph saying:
An "unknown Al Qaeda terrorist cell (was) thought
to be preparing to launch a series of Baghdad-style car bombings." Another
Telegraph article mentioned Washington's involvement with UK authorities in
hyping the threat, and an ABC News report suggested foreknowledge of the
incident based on advance warnings (by unnamed intelligence officials) of Al
Qaeda "target(ing) nightclubs and other soft targets....All of this comes just
three weeks after what was described as an Al Qaeda graduation ceremony for
suicide bombers at a training camp in Pakistan."
Fear mongering and false flags? Draw your own
conclusions, understanding the need to stoke fear to keep public support for the
"war on terror," the loss of civil liberties for "security," the Afghan and Iraq
wars, and whatever else may be planned.
(5) the Christmas 2009 airliner incident
involving Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, a Nigerian citizen on an Amsterdam -
Detroit bound flight. US officials claimed he was trained in Yemen by Al Qaeda,
obtained explosive chemicals (PETN), and tried to detonate them on
board.
In a December 29 Russia Today interview, Webster
Tarpley called him a "protected (CIA) patsy (for a) provocation designed to
facilitate US meddling in (Yemen's) civil war (pitting) the Saudi-backed central
government against the Iranian-backed Shiite Houthi rebels," being bombed by US
and Saudi air strikes.
Abdulmutallab was denied a UK entrance visa,
wasn't on a No Fly List, paid cash for a one-way ticket to Detroit, checked no
luggage, had a US visa but no passport, and was helped on board by a
"well-dressed Indian" to facilitate the likely false flag plot using him as a
convenient dupe.
The Wayne Madsen Report called the incident a
false flag operation "carried out by (the) intelligence tripartite grouping of
CIA, Mossad, and India's Research Analysis Wing (RAW)." Earlier they conspired
with "former Afghan KHAD intelligence agents to assassinate former Pakistani
Prime Minister Benezir Bhutto....to destabilize Pakistan" for planned
balkanization, the same scheme planned for Afghanistan and already implemented
in Iraq.
Madsen explained that Abdulmutallab's PETN was
"weak, technically deficient," failed to go off properly, and if so would have
had the impact of an exploding fire cracker.
Madsen also reported that the same tripartite
CIA, Mossad, and RAW alliance was behind the November 2008 Mumbai, India
attacks, killing nearly 200 and wounding hundreds more. Webster Tarpley said
almost for certain Pakistan's ISI radical wing was involved, and that Indian and
Mossad operatives conduct regular cross-border missions into Pakistan from India
and Afghanistan.
(6) Make of it what you will, but in Miami on
January 11, 2010 (one day before Haiti's earthquake), the Pentagon's US Southern
Command (SOUTHCOM) simulated a hurricane striking Haiti in preparation for
subsequent measures to be implemented, that, in fact, would be a carefully
planned military operation for occupation, control, and planned
plunder.
Also, Deputy SOUTHCOM head, General PK Keen, was
in Haiti when the quake struck, ready to assume command when it did and use a
communication tool called the Transnational Information Sharing Cooperation
project (TISC), linking other nations and NGOs with the Pentagon and US
government to facilitate measures to be implemented, none to help
Haitians.
Final Comments
As long as imperial ambitions and rogue agencies
like CIA and their foreign counterparts exist, false flag operations will be
commonplace, the May 1 New York one the latest example, and maybe a forerunner
of what's to come - another 9/11 some believe, far worse than the first one,
perhaps involving a nuclear incident in a US city. Then using it as a pretext
for more war and to divert attention from America's deepening economic crisis,
likely to erupt in protests because of Washington's indifference to millions
affected.
Whether or not the direst predictions occur will
only be known in the fullness of time. In the meantime, stay tuned for more
updates as events unfold, and be prepared for the
worst.
