Both elements of “Al Qaeda” along with its clear history as a CIA established organization make every mention of it suspicious. Whenever there is a need for a “wag the dog”news story, “Al Qaeda” is dragged out as the whipping boy. Never has any organization, one as mysterious and insubstantial as this one, whose supposed leader, Osama bin Laden, has not only been dead for years but when he was alive, not only worked directly for the CIA but comes from a family directly tied to, not only the Bush family, but, in fact, close friends and business partners for decades at every level. Since the end of the Second World War, national intelligence organizations have gained direct control over almost every non-governmental entity working for political and social change. We aren’t just talking about trade unions and political parties. We are talking revolutionary groups and, in particular, terrorist organizations. Israel alone has an estimated 300 agents among the top leadership of Muslim organizations, be they the Palestinian Authority, Hamas, Hizbollah or Al Qaeda. When arrests are made or we see drone strikes or even assassinations, are they meant to destroy capabilities or are they simply helping an intelligence organization consolidate control over an operational asset, one used to manipulate world events to serve an agenda. We know for certain that the latter is the case. We are now told the CIA has saved American tourists in Europe from being kidnapped, dragged off the Eiffel Tower, bludgeoned at the Tower of London or lassoed at the Louvre. This isn’t July. America is in the middle of a depression, kids are back in school, finding an American tourist in Europe would take some work, even for CIA trained terrorists that make up Al Qaeda. The story would have almost passed muster if it didn’t carry the embellishment of mysterious training camps and personal directions from Osama bin Laden. This is just another scary story to go out on internet news letters filled with conspiracy tales about Obama the Muslim-Socialist from Kenya. These are the “good conspiracies,” the ones that frighten, confuse, anger, blind and keep the public from looking “behind the curtain.” Many experts contend that Al Qaeda is a construct made up for the news, for duping the President, not all that hard according to Bob Woodward, or the fools in congress. Never has an organization been as ethereal or as timely. Both elements of “Al Qaeda” along with its clear history as a CIA established organization make every mention of it suspicious. Whenever there is a need for a “wag the dog”news story, “Al Qaeda” is dragged out as the whipping boy. Never has any organization, one as mysterious and insubstantial as this one whose supposed leader, Osama bin Laden, has not only been dead for years but when he was alive, not only worked directly for the CIA but comes from a family directly tied to, not only the Bush family, but, in fact, close friends and business partners for decades at every level. If we can’t make a decent enemy out of Iran or North Korea, then we can always reinvent Al Qaeda and keep reinventing it, moving it to any part of the world that needs destabilization to promote the interests of powerful multi-national corporations or Israel. Our current scare, a “pre-election special,” is based on, we are told, stories received from an “informant” held by the CIA, the same CIA whose “reliable informants” sent 5,000 Americans to their death in Iraq looking for non-existent weapons of mass destruction. We are told all this information comes from a source being held at the infamous Bagram detention center, a “source” claiming that groups trained in Waziristan under the direct supervision of Osama bin Laden are now all over Europe, top quality passports, probably made in Israel, hunting down Americans. I don’t buy a word of it. When CIA Director Leon Panetta said nobody had heard from bin Laden since 2001, do you think he was trying to make a point? Won’t anyone come out and say it, bin Laden has been dead for nearly a decade. Why don’t we admit it, keeping the ghost of Osama bin Laden alive is now seen as saving a valuable franchise, in effect, a license to lie, steal and kill. Even when he was alive, bin Laden worked for the CIA. He always worked for the CIA, and we are told continually, “Nobody ever quits the CIA.” We can prove, beyond a doubt, that bin Laden was a major CIA asset in Afghanistan. What we can’t prove is that he ever quit. Did he go to work for Israel instead? This idea of terrorist training camps is also a crock. Please, load me on a plane, get me a Pakistan visa ( I have one) and fly me into Lahore. 3 ISI agents will follow me out of the airport, one will be driving my cab.
