'Newspaper: Echelon Gave Authorities Warning Of Attacks'. Ned Stafford van
Newsbytes leest de Frankfurter Allgemeine en meldde
reeds op 13 september j.l.: 'U.S. and Israeli intelligence
agencies received warning signals at least three months ago that Middle Eastern
terrorists were planning to hijack commercial aircraft to use as weapons
to attack important symbols of American and Israeli culture, according
to a story in Germany's daily Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ).
The FAZ, quoting unnamed German intelligence sources, said that the
Echelon spy network was being used to collect information about the
terrorist threats, and that U.K. intelligence services apparently also had
advance warning. The FAZ, one of Germany's most respected dailies, said that
even as far back as six months ago western and near-east press services were
receiving information that such attacks were being planned. Within the American
intelligence community, the warnings were taken seriously and surveillance
intensified, the FAZ said. However, there was disagreement on how such terrorist
attacks could be prevented, the newspaper said'.
Online.ie schrijft
op 14 september j.l.: 'German police have confirmed an Iranian man phoned
US police from his deportation cell to warn of the planned attack on the
World Trade Centre. The Lower Saxony Justice Ministry has confirmed the man
warned of the impending series of terrorist attacks, but had not been believed.
Spokesman Frank Woesthoff said the man phoned America "several times", but
refused to give further details. He said the US Secret Service had not told
the ministry about the calls received from the Langenhagen prison until after
the attacks. [...] The Hanover daily newspaper Neue Presse reported the 29-year-old
was dismissed as mentally unstable when he gave the warning of a terrorist
attack to occur this week'.
Ken McCarthy zag het achteraf vantevoren allemaal al aankomen. Hij schrijft:
'* Would it surprise you to learn that the tactic of using hijacked planes
on suicide attack missions has been part of policy on the part of Islamic
terrorist organizations since the early 1980s...
* That one Middle Eastern country, a sworn enemy of the United States, has
two airport facilities devoted exclusively to the training of attacks on
commercial airliners...
* That Boeing 707s, 727s, and 747s were known to be used as a part of this
training...
* That a suicide squadron including Falcon Jets and DC-3s has been staffed
and in operation for this purpose since 1983...
* That the plan to launch a major terrorist-guerilla offensive INSIDE the
United States has been the publicly stated goal of a state sponsored terror
network since the late 1970s and that the conspirators have been laying the
groundwork for this end methodically and in plain view...
* That the men arrested for the 1993 attack on the World Trade Center were
known by US law enforcement not to be the masterminds behind the attack.
Further, that the domestic infrastructure that made that attack possible
was thoroughly understood, but has been allowed to operate and grow unhampered...
Why aren't we getting these facts?
Before you assume that the above information is being pulled out of thin
air and is being manufactured after the fact as part of an Internet conspiracy
theory, you should know where I found this information.
In a book... published in 1993!'
Het boek in kwestie heet Tartget
America & the West en is van een auteur met meer van dit soort boeken
op zijn naam, Yossef Bodansky.
Joseph Farah van World Net Daily vraagt
zich met betrekking tot de aanslagen af: '"What did the government know and
when did it know it?" There's a growing body of evidence that those entrusted
and paid by the people to know about threats indeed had some warning, but
failed to pass it on to the public. Gelukkig komt hij ook met de bewijzen,
zij het dat je die zelf moet verifiëren.

op 27 september j.l. in The Times: Rushdie's air ban [by James Doran] THE
author Salman Rushdie believes that US authorities knew of an imminent terrorist
strike when they banned him from taking internal flights in Canada and the
US only a week before the attacks'.
Hier een artikel
van iemand die zich vragen stelt over de tijden tussen de aanvallen van de
vliegtuigen en Bush die na verluid na de eerste aanval nog een halfuur met
een stel tweedeklassers van een basisschool over een geitje heeft zitten
praten.
'So what do we have here?
A) Officials knew that the third plane, and quite possibly the second, was
set to strike important targets.
B) They tracked the third plane for at least half an hour.
C) Supposedly George Bush, Jr. needed to approve shooting the plane down.
D) But instead of going into an emergency meeting, he continued his visit
to an elementary school, hearing about goats.'

Toch blijft ook dit gegeven
nog een rare bijsmaak houden: 'Millions of shares sold before disaster [by
James Doran] THE CIA has asked the City regulators in London to investigate
suspicious sales of millions of shares before last Tuesday’s attacks in America
in the belief that the paper trail will lead to the terrorists'.
De NRC schrijft op 10 oktober: 'We hebben airsupremacy boven Afghanistan,
beweert het Pentagon – Amerikaanse vliegtuigen kunnen doen en laten wat ze
willen in het Afghaanse luchtruim. Maar dat is niet helemaal waar. Snelle
gevechtsvliegtuigen lijken niks meer te vrezen van radargeleide luchtafweerraketten.
Maar transportvliegtuigen en helikopters hebben geen vrij spel. De belangrijkste
reden: de van de schouder te lanceren Stinger-raket, erfgoed van de Amerikaanse
bemoeienis met de oorlog tegen de Sovjet-bezetters in de jaren tachtig.'
'My sources in the intelligence community have recently given me details
of efforts by Afghani rebels to turn over to the United States, without charge,
30 to 40 Stinger missiles (SAM), with a possibility of an additional 100
missiles thereafter. Incredibly, this offer was rejected by Justice Department
and Central Intelligence Agency officials' schrijft
Rodney Stich al in 1995. Hij geeft ook mogelijke redenen voor het weigeren
van de gift.
