VS valt Pakistan aan - US attacks Pakistan
Zowel contacten van deze blog in Pakistan als de BBC melden dat de Verenigde Staten luchtaanvallen uitvoeren in Noord-Pakistan.
De Amerikanen hebben bij Pakistan een vliegdekschip gestationeerd.
Volgens minder duidelijke berichten zou India van de andere kant ook aanvallen hebben uitgevoerd, maar deze berichten kunnen op dit moment nog niet worden bevestigd.
In 2001 werd de false flag operatie van de aanslagen op de Twin Towers en het Pentagon (zie hiervoor http://911research.wtc7.net/) aangegrepen om binnen zeer korte tijd Afghanistan en later Irak aan te vallen. Voor beide oorlogen bestaat geen juridische grond. Nu warmt het Witte Huis het publiek op voor een volgende false flag operatie, waarbij dan mogelijk krachten in Pakistan als schuldigen zullen worden aangewezen.
US fears Al Qaeda attack next year
By Anwar Iqbal
WASHINGTON, June 30: The White House warned on Monday that Al Qaeda could launch a major attack on the United States in 2009, endorsing a similar warning by an independent senator Joe Lieberman.
The warnings coincide with media reports that top Bush administration officials drafted a secret plan late last year to enable US forces to operate inside Fata, but Washington turf battles and the diversion of resources to Iraq have held up the effort.
At a White House briefing, press secretary Dana Perino did not confirm or deny the reports – saying that she could not “comment either way” – but she assured US citizens that the Bush administration had never allowed a “let up” in the search for Osama bin Laden and other Al Qaeda leaders.
Ms Perino, however, did not hesitate to confirm Mr Lieberman’s fears. “Unfortunately, he could be right,” she said. “We know there are people who are very dangerous and are trying to do that.”
Mr Lieberman, who was a vice-presidential candidate in 2004, said in a television interview on Sunday that history shows the United States would likely face a terrorist attack in 2009.
“Our enemies will test the new president early,” he said. “Remember that the truck bombing of the World Trade Centre happened in the first year of the Clinton administration. 9/11 happened in the first year of the Bush administration.”
At the White House, Ms Perino noted that the people who were planning to attack the United States were “very dangerous and very secretive,” and operated from “a very dangerous terrain, hiding in caves.”
Explaining President Bush’s strategy for dealing with this threat, she said the president was clear that “whenever we can we will take action” against such people. “We will not wait.”
She said that people hiding in this “dangerous terrain” were “plotting to kill innocent people not just in the US but in other countries as well, even Muslims like in Iraq.”
Zie ook Global Research dat het volgende te melden had over Liebermans uitlatingen:
Lieberman’s recent remarks are views by many as a means to create fear and panic among American citizens, thus suggesting the notion that the US would need a war veteran [de naar verluid mentaal vrij instabiele John McCain, die door Lieberman wordt gesteund] as the head of state to protect the nation.
De Verenigde Staten, zich zoals bekend overal ter wereld immer inzettend voor democratie en mensenrechten, steunen het autocratisch bewind van Pervez Musharraf. De Pakistaanse inlichtingendienst ISI was een direct betrokken partij bij de aanslagen op 11 september. De generaal die een ton overmaakte naar Mohammed Atta lunchte op de ochtend van 11 september 2001 met enkele sleutelfiguren in Washington.
Confirmed: ISI General Ahmed Met With JCS, Neocons Before 9/11George Washington’s Blog
July 15, 2008In response to a Freedom of Information Act Request submitted by Kevin Ryan, Mick Harrison and Paul Smith, the government has disclosed documents confirming that Pakistani ISI General Ahmed - the guy who wired $100,000 to lead hijacker Atta — met with a "Senior Representative from the Joint Chiefs of Staff", Centcom Commander General Tommy Franks, the Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, Wolfowitz, Feith, other PNAC members, and probably Intelligence Committee members Graham and Goss, and others in the week before 9/11.
All credit goes to Kevin, Mick and Paul. I’m just reporting on their efforts.
De BBC meldt als motief voor de aanvallen op Pakistaans grondgebied:
American military officials are alarmed by Pakistan’s strategy of pursuing peace deals with pro-Taleban tribesmen near the Afghan border.
Last week top US military officer Admiral Mike Mullen said this increased the flow of militants into Afghanistan to combat Nato troops.
He also said the peace process allowed more foreign fighters to operate in the region, reflecting American concerns that al-Qaeda is regrouping in the tribal areas and plotting its next 9/11-style attack against the United States.
Such public criticism has fuelled speculation that the Americans will take matters into their own hands.
According to numerous reports, earlier this year the Americans did have permission from Pakistan for limited air strikes against al-Qaeda targets. But the new government elected in February asked them to stop, because these hits roused anger and led to revenge attacks.
Het “gevaar” is dus peace deals met mensen die het kunnen vinden met de Taliban - een groep mensen die de VS altijd goed gezind was, totdat ze uit de pas gingen lopen, door o.a. het vernietigen van de papavervelden van Afghanistan (de CIA is een van de grootste drugssmokkel- en drugsgeldwitwasorganisaties ter wereld) en “ongehoorzaamheid” aan de VS op het gebied van gaspijpleidingen.
