Nearly a year ago, a Nigerian “refugee,” really the son of a powerful government official with direct ties to both the CIA and Mossad, carried an explosive device onto a plane in Amsterdam, a device he attempted to explode in Detroit.

This incident is the primary rationale for the billions of dollars being spent on scanners. Initially, this incident wasn’t considered enough. Then the “printer bandit” incident, which now appears to only be a series of false newspaper reports, was staged. Both acts are tied to Yemen, a country whose terrorism problems were, even initially, tied to Israel and are now reported by the New York Times as being staged by the government to bilk the United States out of funding to be used for local political infighting between tribes.

There is, in fact, no substantive evidence of the existence of “Al Qaeda” in Yemen, a group that the BBC, has shown was a creation of the CIA and, in fact, has never existed. Video of the Al Qaeda stronghold in Afghanistan where the CIA claimed it stormed the thousand man, 10 level, underground bunkers system, proves conclusively that the entire Al Qaeda-bin Laden myth was created to support government excesses much as the more recent supposed terror attacks now have the American government “terrorizing” travelers.

Wouldn't be surprised if this was a dupe. I posted this (again), in light of the recent changes at the TSA, and the rationale that they've given us that the violation of our civil rights is to protect us from the spooks they created.


I don't enjoy defending the TSA; and I think the body scanners and intimate massage pat-downs are outrageous. But the threat isn't imaginary; 9/11 actually happened, and the near misses since then seem credible. Indeed, if someone is going to blow up or hijack your plane, he probably belongs to a small independent group, not a large, structured, mafia-like organization. But that distinction is unlikely to make a damn bit of difference to anyone who gets exploded.

Still, it's a really interesting video, and the point made is an important one. Though if you knew it was a dupe, promote is the best way to give it attention again.

I don't deny that 9/11 really happened, nor do I forsake the threat or the security measures if they actually helped to prevent terrorist attacks.

But, in all honesty, I have yet to hear about cases in which these specific measures actually prevented an attack.

Instead, they participate in episodes like this one.

Just take a look at the 20+ TSA-related videos in the VS search alone to note how the organization botches its mandate more than not.

In any case, I would have promoted the video if I had been able to find it -- I could not. Feel free to *isdupe if you can.

xxovercastxx cannot declared this a dupe of the specified video because xxovercastxx submitted the original - ignoring dupeof request by xxovercastxx.

Did i just watch a BBC documentary explain that Bin Laden, an ex-CIA asset really was created as an "Emmanual Goldstein" character?

Next you'll tell me Fox news hasn't been deliberately crafted to create a "daily hate" against everything not on the agenda of the new world order.

There are two ways to unite people against a difficult cause.

a) Create a blessed Hero martyred for the cause, challenging all followers
"He died for You! For our freedom! It must not be in vain"

b) Create a cursed Villain, hidden and all around you. All freedoms must be given up to protect against the curse. Anyone who questions is a hidden enemy and must be silenced.

9/11 while tragic, and by... coincidence... for the first time ever, created both in a single act. The most powerful combination of events for total social control, completely by accident

Oops.. I meant that to be an upvote!

Sorry.
