9/11 & 28 pages of treason

by Joe Giambrone

You probably didn’t hear from your corporate media that those 28 pages concerning Saudi state support to the September 11th suicide-hijackers have been released to the public. Or if you had, you would have most likely heard only the Saudi spin, published widely, and parroted by Barack Obama’s spokespeople, that the pages don’t mean anything.
One might ask of those 28 pages: if they didn’t mean anything in the first place then why cover them up for fifteen years until the population mostly forgot about them?
This September 11th, if you actually read the pages yourself, they might wind up meaning quite a lot to you. Couched in Congressional weasel-words, “may have” being repeated throughout, the report is a shocking eye-opener. It was likely the catalyst for the September 9unanimous House of Representatives vote to pass JASTA, the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act.
A single paragraph from the long-censored Congressional Joint Inquiry chapter should convey a sense of the disgraceful cover-up as it now stands:

“Osama Bassnan. …Bassnan was a close associate of al-Bayoumi and Omar Bakarbashat, another one of the hijackers’ close associates. He also lived across the street from the hijackers, and made a comment to an FBI asset that he did more than al-Bayoumi for the hijackers. According to an FBI document, Bassnan told another individual that he met al-Hazmi through al-Bayoumi and later that he met two of the hijackers through al-Bayoumi. He also told the asset that al-Bayoumi was arrested because he knew al-Hazmi and al-Mihdhur very well. …
Bassnan has many ties to the Saudi Government, including past employment by the Saudi Arabian Education Mission, referred to in an FBI document as [REDACTED, INEXPLICABLY]. The FBI also received reports from individuals in the Muslim community alleging that Bassnan might be a Saudi intelligence officer. According to a CIA memo, Bassnan reportedly received funding and possibly a fake passport from Saudi Government officials. He and his wife have received financial support from the Saudi Ambassador to the United States and his wife. …
The report states that during that trip a member of the Saudi royal family provided Bassnan with a significant amount of cash. FBI information indicates that Bassnan is an extremist and supporter of Usama bin Laden, and has been connected to the Eritrean Islamic Jihad and the Blind Shaykh.”

That “Saudi Ambassador to the United States” is, of course, “Bandar Bush,” otherwise known as Prince Bandar bin Sultan.
The Saudi regime has been an arms supplier, funding source and trainer of Sunni terrorists for a long, long time. Beginning in 1979 they partnered with the US CIA and Pakistani ISI to create a fundamentalist army in Afghanistan, otherwise known as Operation Cyclone, the largest CIA operation in history. The Central Intelligence Agency was on the same side as Osama bin Laden, who was supplied with fighters–covertly–from Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and a number of other nations where Al Qaeda types were deemed a bit too dangerous to remain at home. The Afghan strategy was to send the Wahabbi radicals off to fight their Jihad elsewhere, and so solve two problems with one action.
If the Islamists are blowing up Soviets or Syrians or Libyan government forces then they are not blowing up targets in their homelands, such as in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, et cetera. This strategy persists to this very day and fuels the carnage in Syria.
Lest anyone believe that the Saudis acted alone on September 11th of 2001, without US official protection, that argument is indefensible. The great lengths that two US administrations have gone to keep this crime covered-up should be sufficient to dispel that fantasy. A simple 1 plus 1 train of logic: if the Saudis acted without US permission to attack the USA and murder 3,000 Americans at home, including an attack on the Pentagon(!), their entire country would have been vaporized off the planet the following day 9/12/01. It is not even remotely plausible that the Saudis would act alone against the US, and they most certainly did not.
A longstanding partnership exists here, and so we must expose the treachery of US high officials as well. The counter-terrorism adviser tot he White House, terror “Czar” Richard Clarke has accused the CIA, and George Tenet specifically, of hiding the hijackers from him and from the FBI, and thus allowing the September 11thattacks to succeed. FBI agents on the case also complained about the CIA’s deliberate hiding of Al Qaeda terrorists/hijackers inside the United States. There has been zero accountability.
Clarke, the highest counter-terrorism official in the land on 9/11, points the finger directly at Tenet, but with a caveat. He proposes a cover-story about Saudis allegedly “recruiting” Al Qaeda to serve as double agents. This “recruiting” story should be disregarded as cheap talk, however. The CIA pretended to warn the Bush White House of “spectacular attacks” domestically, while it simultaneously continued to shield known Al Qaeda men inside the US from exposure and arrest—for over a year. As with all witnesses we must strip away any speculation or opinion from Richard Clarke’s statements and deal only with the facts. The CIA deliberately withheld intelligence about hijackers inside the US from the Counter-Terrorism Adviser to the White House and from the head of the FBI.
Prince Bandar floated that same sort of recruiting-bad-guys story, claiming to have watched the hijackers “with precision.” With Saudi “precision” he apparently watched them for over a year until they flew right into the World Trade Center. Some stories fail the laugh test, and this is clearly one of them. A security loophole was exploited by those who knew better. We see a cover-story in place to attempt to deflect blame, but the cover-story has yet been unnecessary owing to the success of the larger 9/11 cover-up. That cover-up is now unraveling.
The CIA deliberately failed to fulfill its core mission, its raison d’etre, why it was created in the first place post Pearl Harbor: to protect the nation from an attack. The fact that CIA was aware of Al Qaeda terrorists living inside the US during numerous warnings of suicide skyjackings and of “spectacular attacks,” yet failed to simply phone up the FBI and alert them, is the glaring red flag here which reads “Treason.”
Treason is simply “aid and comfort” to those who attack the country, as per the US Constitution, which Americans were supposed to read as children. Providing any “aid and comfort” to those who attack the country is prosecutable under the Constitution—except apparently when high officials do it.
Americans remain ignorant of the relevant history, that of the CIA, what it actually does in the real world, not on movie screens, and particularly of Operation Gladio and its “Strategy of Tension.” Failing to comprehend motives for 9/11, or for betraying one’s country, the public largely assumes it impossible.
An attack such as September 11th could only succeed because of the historical ignorance of the American public, an ignorance that is dangerous and exploitable.
The New York Times finally exposed Operation Ajax, the 1953 overthrow of the legitimately elected government of Iran. Only, it took the paper of record 47 years and it only published the details after the CIA itself released its report, not unlike Soviet-era Pravda. But what is the most damning fact about what the CIA actually did in 1953?

The [CIA’s own] history says agency officers orchestrating the Iran coup worked directly with royalist Iranian military officers, handpicked the prime minister’s replacement, sent a stream of envoys to bolster the shah’s courage, directed a campaign of bombings by Iranians posing as members of the Communist Party, and planted articles and editorial cartoons in newspapers.

Directed a campaign of bombings posing as communists?
That, dear reader, is a black and white admission of false flag terrorism. The Central Intelligence Agency has admitted to practicing false flag terrorism as far back as 1953. That would be square one in a course on censored history and reality as you probably are not aware of it.
Square two would entail Operation Gladio, a “forty year” (BBC) string of bombings and terror incidents orchestrated by the CIA and by a secret NATO parallel organization. Gladio was intended to frighten the population of Europe into rejecting leftists and to prod the population toward the right. The purpose is propaganda first and foremost. Gladio required innocent civilians killed by supposed “communists.” Gladio culminated in the Bologna railway station bombing of 1980, which killed 85 and wounded another 200.
Operation Gladio was exposed by the Prime Minister of Italy, Giulio Andreotti, in 1990. This is censored entirely from American corporate news media. The American public knows nothing about it whatsoever.
The important takeaway is the Strategy of Tension. Terror, state-terror, is used to move populations toward desired positions. Terror is a lever of power. It is seen as a valuable commodity and much more valuable to a warmonger than simply stopping an attack on civilians. The motive to allow an attack to succeed is clear and should be understood by all, especially given the very real and deadly history of Operation Gladio.
The communist enemy was supplanted by the Islamic terrorist enemy, almost seamlessly. After the fall of the Soviet Union western imperialists needed an external threat to justify trillions in arms and limitless warfare. Without the counterbalance of the Soviet empire the Western bloc was unleashed and able to choose its targets without fear of igniting a nuclear conflagration. President George H.W. Bush famously called this situation the “New World Order.”
And so we return to the Saudis, caught red-handed aiding and abetting the September 11th hijackers. These war crimes were hushed up and classified by the Saudi-friendly regime of G.W. Bush. But the cover-up continued under Democrat Barack Obama too, and for seven years of his rule those 28 pages were brushed aside and ignored.
Now that they are out, will we finally see a real investigation into what happened on 9/11/01, and who is truly to blame? Will we ever see justice?
I’m not holding my breath, but the passage of JASTA by unanimous consent in the House does put some monkey back into the wrench.
Perhaps a knock on Osama Bassnan’s door, just to start the ball rolling?

In the USA, it appears that “No One” is responsible for the CIA. Given their history of ‘False Flags’ and the countless coup d’états in South America and many other nations across the world, in addition to their apparent involvement in the global illegal drug trade, even the President of the United States and the Congress appear clueless of what they get up to connections puzzle

are these 28 pages created by the same person (zelikow) who created the other 543 pages of lies?
so which Saudis flew into the pentagon or into wtc 7?
which Saudis mailed the anthrax?
the 28 pages are bullshit to be used against saudi arabia whenever the jewcons want. sa is on the yinon list to be dismembered for the benefit of the parasite state whose agents run the u.s.

It’s been 15 years since “9/11” and NONE of the Arabs held in Guantanamo Bay have actually been found guilty of any crime, in a properly constituted American court for what took place on that day. If the NIST report is right, and ALL the conspiracy theories are wrong, why hasn’t ANYONE been found guilty?
No matter which way you look at it, 9/11 is concocted bullshit.

Cover up is the same as being complicit in the crime! The Bush League should all be cooling their heels in prison! Obama as well is complicit in his continuing of the cover up. Treachery, thy name is government!

Quote begins,
“Now that they are out, will we finally see a real investigation into what happened on 9/11/01, and who is truly to blame? Will we ever see justice?
I’m not holding my breath, but the passage of JASTA by unanimous consent in the House does put some monkey back into the wrench.

Quote ends.
Lets pretend:
The ball starts to roll, a real investigation happens, and those responsible for the 9/11 cabal are exposed and as Chomsky suggested would most certainly happen, they all end up in front of a firing squad.
Then what? Justice has been served, but by what and by whom? The current assortment of institutions and cronies? Did the “ball” suddenly begin to “roll” because various power elites — in government, in the judiciary, in the secret services, etc., — suddenly saw the “light” and wholeheartedly decided to commit themselves to “serving justice?” Is justice ever the paramount value among rulers who only understand money as power? If the “ball” did begin to roll and the heads of people high up in the American establishment really began to roll, would this be a manifestation of justice being served or a palace coup being conducted against a rival gang of pretenders to the various but interconnected thrones? To my mind, it would be the latter rather than the former.
No. If true justice is to emerge as a consequence of the truth of 9/11 becoming common public knowledge, a radicalized citizenry is what needs to be the outcome, that and wholesale revolt pushing toward something beyond the rule of capitalism, toward a society where justice, not concentrated private wealth, is the substantive value of the zeitgeist. 9/11 needs to become, like all other ‘false flags’ ever perpetrated on ordinary people, another nail in the coffin of private wealth without bounds.

http://jamesfetzer.blogspot.co.uk/2015/07/peeling-911-onion-layers-of-plots.html jim who has suffered more than his fair share of ad hominem attacks on here and elsewhere and whom i believe to be in v serious error by omitting from examination the hurricane and magnetometer evidence over 9/11 as they did at the Vancouver Conference which examined the relative merits of low yield mini neutron bombs against exotic weapons inc DEWs HERE in this article shows his brilliant command of the subtleties of cover-up and false trail……How the author here underestimates the misinformation abilities of the CIA!!! Bugliosis Assassination of JFK doorstopper was only written after he had gone to print accusing Bush of war crimes to draw in a sympathetic audience or for a fuller examination of a CIA sting read Book 5 Douglas Hornes Inside the Assassination Archives Bureau ….

If Fetzer’s mini-nuke theory were true, elevated levels of alpha, beta, and/or gamma radiation consistent with nuclear blasts would have been found, and neutron activation would still be detectable in and around ground zero. As for DEW weapons, nobody, including Judy Woods, knows what these “speculative” weapons of mass destruction might entail in terms of known physical processes; if nobody knows what they are or how they function, that is, if they remain secret and unknown to the great unwashed, including the scientific community as a whole, to speculate about them is, well, to speculate about the unknown or, in effect, NOTHING.
Both Fetzer and Woods may safely be dismissed as “evidence” free spinmeisters of what went down on 9/11.

The CIA appear to be answerable to “No One” in the USA. Even the President of the USA, and the Congress seem unaware of what they get up to, given their history of ‘False Flags’ and the numerous Coup D’etat’s in South American and many other countries around the world, not to mention their apparent involvement in the international illegal drug trade.
So, who are the CIA answerable TO ??

Really???
Saudi Arabia’s rulers threatened to make it easier for terrorists to attack London unless corruption investigations into their arms deals were halted, according to court documents revealed yesterday.
