9/11: ''Saving the Saudis''

From Wes Jones/Craig Unger

''Just days after 9/11, wealthy Saudi Arabians, including members of the bin Laden family, were whisked out of the U.S. on private jets. No one will admit to clearing the flights, and the passengers weren't questioned. Did the Bush family's long relationship with the Saudis make it happen?''

''Sleeping With the Devil: How U.S. and Saudi Backing of Al Qaeda Led to 9/11''

From Washington's Blog via Global Research

''Indeed, the U.S. started backing Al Qaeda’s forefathers even before the Soviets invaded Afghanistan.  As
Brzezinski told Le Nouvel Observateur in a 1998 interview:
Question: The former director of the CIA, Robert Gates, stated in his memoirs ["From the Shadows"], that American intelligence services began to aid the Mujahadeen in Afghanistan 6 months before the Soviet intervention. In this period you were the national security adviser to President Carter. You therefore played a role in this affair. Is that correct?Brzezinski: Yes. According to the official version of history, CIA aid to the Mujahadeen began during 1980, that is to say, after the Soviet army invaded Afghanistan, 24 Dec 1979. But the reality, secretly guarded until now, is completely otherwise Indeed, it was July 3, 1979 that President Carter signed the first directive for secret aid to the opponents of the pro-Soviet regime in Kabul. And that very day, I wrote a note to the president in which I explained to him that in my opinion this aid was going to induce a Soviet military intervention.''

''The CIA, 9/11, Afghanistan, and Central Asia''

From VoltaireNet.org

To mark the release of the French version of Peter Dale Scott’s latest book, "The American War Machine", we are publishing a detailed study undertaken by this Canadian diplomat on the attacks of September 11. He brings to light evidence of premeditation on the part of a faction within the U.S. military-industrial complex.

''Birth pangs of the euro''

sept 2001 was an interesting month!!.....................From Sept. 2001 &  FrontLine

''SEPTEMBER 1, 2001 was a historic day for Europe. Thousands of tonnes of banknotes and coins of the new European common currency, the euro, were delivered to the central banks of 12 European countries for circulation as legal tender.''

''The euro, which will shortly replace the existing national currencies of 300 million Europeans, was unveiled in Frankfurt by Wim Duisenberg, President of the European Central Bank (ECB), who described the occasion as "a moment when the flow of history is present". He said: "It required much insight, understanding and determination to convince the different countries of Europe that their place in an increasingly interdependent world could only be assured by a single currency which promoted greater commerce both among themselves and with the the rest of the world."

Since January 1999, when the euro has existed as an electronic currency, it has lost 30 per cent of its value against the U.S. dollar. It is hoped that its use as legal tender would help regain confidence in it and boost its standing in the currency markets. Europe had hoped that the euro would challenge the U.S. dollar and that businesses in other countries would hold their assets in euros. But a strong U.S. economy, at least prior to the recent slowdown, and the relative weakness of the European economies, with problems for the German economy in particular over the last few years, caused the euro to fall.

''Gold, Money, Power and 9/11 Coverup''

From Market Oracle
By Darryl Schoon

''In 1971, when the US cut the ties between money and gold, gold as money ceased to exist. Gold as power, however, continued. But because gold is power there is little real information on the connection between the two; and that information is often misleading as the powerful prefer secrecy and the true movements of gold are no exception.

I would like to share some information I discovered about the world of gold and power that will shed light on some very critical issues; and, because of power’s purposefully hidden path, the truth here can only be approached obliquely.''

''Mysterious Currency Transfers Before 9-11''

From Economic Policy Journal
''Bill Bergman worked at the Chicago Federal Reserve for over 13 years as an economist and financial markets policy analyst, until he started asking questions about unusual currency movements before 9-11. On the show we talk about what happened to him, after he started his investigation.

We also talk about how the Fed's Biege Book is assembled, the trillion plus dollars sitting at the Fed as excess reserves, the LIBOR "scandal", Warren Buffet and much more''

''An Altered World: 9/11, Obama, And The Attempted Annihilation of Consciousness''

From Truth Excavator

''America's identity is being altered and its political consciousness radically transformed on the false pretext that it is under attack from Al-Qaeda and Islamic terrorism.

When Obama and Bush said that Americans and citizens of the world should not tolerate conspiracy theories about the September 11 events, they were saying in effect: "Look, you stupid slaves, we control your brains. Got it? We wrote the code that now gets your little minds going like rabbits whenever the image of Bin Laden pops up on your television sets. So just be good little lambs, let the big boys handle the course of history, do as we say, stay within our paradigm, and maybe we'll let you live a little longer than the extremists who reject this paradigm. Sounds good? Okay. Now get out of our way."

''Chevron Keeps Knocking at Turkmenistan’s Door''

looks like mother russia won.............From Eurasia Net

''Chevron, along with ExxonMobil, has had offices in Turkmenistan for years with the meager hope of finally persuading Ashgabat to give them some access to the country’s onshore gas fields, but no cigar to date.

With almost mocking insouciance, Turkmenistan continues trying to tempt its foreign suitors to bid for the licensed Caspian Sea hydrocarbon blocks up for tender.

Chevron has resisted that temptation, but it is now being linked to the pipeline project to transport gas through Afghanistan to Pakistan and India, known as TAPI.

People with historical knowledge of the Afghan pipeline will know that Chevron has some indirect experience with this project’s previous incarnation.

Unocal, which merged with Chevron in 2005, was the majority partner in a multinational consortium including Delta Oil Company of Saudi Arabia, Russia's Gazprom and Turkmenistan to build the pipeline in the 1990s. That idea was scuppered by the harsh realities of Afghan instability.

In a case of history repeating itself, the frontrunners in the proposed consortium to build TAPI reportedly include Chevron and Gazprom, as well as ExxonMobil. Other candidates cited in regional media include Indian state-owned gas processing and distribution company GAIL -- a detail just guaranteed to irk Pakistan.''

''Right after the tragic 9/11 episode, a series of books and debates (on TV) appeared in the US and Europe trying to figure out exactly what had happened''

From Dawn

''In a series of papers and books written after 9/11, these authors (and more) explained how in a two-pronged onslaught, oil-rich Arab monarchies bankrolled a destructive Islamist narrative that, on the one hand, gave birth to violent extremist and sectarian monsters in Muslim countries, and on the other hand, raised a stream of apologists within American and European intelligentsia.
It were these apologists — bred and buttered in some of the finest educational institutions in the west, regularly and liberally funded by ‘petro-dollars’ — who played a major role in keeping western societies ignorant of a growing social and ideological threat that eventually mutated into the horrors of widespread violence perpetrated by men and women in the name of faith.''

''INSIGHT INTO THE 9/11 DEBATE 'Economists are scared''

From Asia Times Online
By Lars Schall

"LS:Right after the attacks, a fair amount of mainstream financial media articles surfaced suggesting that there was informed trading going on related to 9/11. Why do you believe this reporting disappeared soon after and was never seen again?

PZ: That's a good question, and I'll tell you what I think, but it's kind of speculative, I can't know for sure. What I think happened was that many people who were not involved in any way whatsoever with 9/11 noticed the extreme levels of put options in certain securities before 9/11.

That is publicly available information, particularly if you have the services that provide that data to you. Some of these people noticed the extreme volumes and they thought, I believe, that it would lead to nailing [al-Qaeda leader] Osama bin Laden as responsible for 9/11. So we've got a lot of news coverage for about a month or two after 9/11, and then suddenly it died. I think the reason why it died - and that's speculation - is that somehow the word got out that it's not going to lead to Osama bin Laden."

''A 9/11 Paper Trail''

From Boiling Frogs Post


"The amount of U.S. currency circulating outside banks rose sharply in July/August 2001.  The growth ran into the billions of dollars, and was concentrated in $100 bills.  These large-scale currency movements matter for anyone who cares about learning the truth about 9/11.

Under money laundering and other laws, assets can be frozen and seized in the banking system.  Knowing this, parties concerned that their assets might be frozen or otherwise at risk after 9/11 would have had an incentive to liquidate securities and banking accounts beforehand, and withdraw their money in difficult-to-trace ways."

9/11-"Was Saudi Arabia involved?"

"Author Lawrence Wright has speculated that, so desperate was the CIA to get a source inside al-Qaeda, the agency shielded the aspiring terrorists while it tried to recruit them. In his book The Looming Tower, Wright also suggests a more serious possibility: lacking any domestic jurisdiction, the agency colluded with Saudi Arabian intelligence to keep their own fingerprints off events. According to Wright, this was the view of a team of FBI investigators known as Squad I-49."
