Northern Alliance link to 9/11

All truth passes through three stages:

First, it is ridiculed,

Second, it is violently opposed,

Third, it is accepted as self-evident.

Arthur Schopenhauer

Could it be that the unthinkable has taken place? Could it be that the attack on 9/11 was a ‘false flag’ operation? Often times, in the murky world of spy-craft, it is useful to establish a cost/benefit analysis.

 Wikipedia defines false flag operation thus: False flag operations are covert operations designed to deceive the public in such a way that the operations appear as though they are being carried out by other entities. The name is derived from the military concept of flying false colors, that is; flying the flag of a country other than one’s own.

Recently, scientific journals, TV documentaries and other publications within the scope of an investigative genre have resulted in numerous and troubling questions regarding the veracity of the 9/11 Commission Report, the U.S. Government’s assessment of the horrific attack on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.  (See: Tru TV, October 22, 2010, and 9/11 Unveiled, Enver Masud, The Wisdom Fund, 2008, Arlington, VA).

An assemblage of forensic scientists: The (ASEA) ‘Association of Architectural and Structural Engineers’, ‘Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth’, numerous university professors and forensic scientists with chemical and structural analysis expertise, and a number of commercial pilot’s associations have found serious discrepancies and omissions between the 9/11 Commission Report and physical evidence collected at the sight, to include: eye-witness accounts and chemical-trace deposits:

…Eye witness accounts have testified that a number of interior explosions took place prior to the first plan’s impact.

…Chemical analysis has discovered the compound thermite, a highly-incendiary military-grade explosive in the residue of the collapsed buildings.

…Steel columns had been rendered into molten mass, yet jet fuel does not burn at sufficiently high temperatures to melt steel support columns.

…Many of the alleged ‘Highjackers’ enumerated on passenger manifests have turned up alive and indignant in their respective home countries.

WTC7 (Building 7) collapsed in its own footprint, in what demolition experts classify as free-fall (7 seconds) acceleration. Yet WTC7 was not struck by an aircraft. Its collapse was not mentioned in the official 9/11 Report. The World Trade Center consisted of seven buildings: The Twin Towers and Buildings 3, 4, 5 and 6. North of the Twin Towers stood Building 7.   

The Report does not address why the collapsed buildings exhibit all the characteristics of a classic controlled demolition with explosives such as rapid onset of collapse, sounds of explosions at ground floor a full second prior to collapse, symmetrical collapse through the path of greatest resistance at nearly free-fall speed with the steel skeleton broken up for shipment, massive volume of expanding pyroclastic dust clouds, tons of molten metal found by Controlled Demolition, Inc., the chemical signature of thermite (a high tech incendiary) found in slag, solidified molten metal, and dust samples by Professor Jones, and rapid oxidation and inter-granular melting on structural steel samples examined by FEMA. A newly found video shows windows being blown out from the bottom toward the top of WTC7 just prior to its collapse.

Almost immediately the United States Government assigned blame to Osama bin Laden.  Initially, however, Osama bin Laden denied involvement, citing that “we do not approve of attacks against women and children; this is not approved even during times of combat.”

A portion of the original evidence linking Osama bin Laden to the 9/11 attacks came from the Northern Alliance.

A video tape in which Osama bin Laden appears to accept responsibility for the attacks was passed from the Russian FSB, successor agency to the KGB, to members of the Northern Alliance who then passed it to the CIA. Later, forensic examination disclosed that the video tape was a forgery, an oft-practiced specialty of the Soviet and Russian intelligence agencies. The Northern Alliance has had a long history of cooperation with the USSR and currently the Russian Federation.

From internationally syndicated journalist and noted author Eric S. Margolis:

“During the ten years jihad against the Soviets, the leader of the Northern Alliance, Ahmad Shah Massoud was lionized in the West as a heroic anti-Communist mountain warrior, “the Lion of the Panjshir.” In reality, he had long secretly collaborated with the Soviet KGB, a fact recently revealed in the memoirs of retired Soviet intelligence officers from the KGB and GRU military intelligence.* While pretending to fight the Soviets, Massoud actually devoted his main efforts to combating the Pashtun Mujahideen, thwarting their efforts, backed by Pakistan intelligence agents, to blow-up the strategic choke point of Soviet logistics, the Salang Tunnel. Massoud also intrigued to convince Moscow to ditch its current Communist puppet ruler, Najibullah, and make him ruler.” (See: American Raj, Liberation or Domination?

A benefit of the 9/11 attack for the U.S. lies in the purported and stated justification for projection of its military to many areas of the energy-producing world. Under the guise of “the war on terror”, the U.S., as a NATO ancillary, has built histories first global army. With hundreds of bases worldwide, the energy-rich “Stans” of Central Asia and the Caspian Basin, once considered under the province and tutelage of Russia, are now under the watchful eye of the U.S. military, in a strategic bid to encircle China, and the covetous eye of corporate America, hungry to develop and exploit shrinking reserves of fossil fuel and rare earth elements. (See: History’s First Global Army, Stop NATO, Rick Rozoff, Global Research, Toronto, 8/9/2009)

Although wary of the projection of an American inspired ANSEAN NATO, Russia, cognizant that there is not a military solution for the U.S. in Afghanistan, remain content to let Washington hemorrhage to a state of virtual bankruptcy, frighteningly leveraged from under record, budget-busting trillion-dollar military expenditures.  This is the first war in U.S. History that is financed entirely on credit, largely from credits obtained from China.

For the Northern Alliance, a minority Tajik ethnic group,  acutely aware that America would seek retribution for the 9/11 attacks, had provided fictitious evidence to the CIA which had the result of unleashing the world’s most powerful military armada against their arch-enemy, the predominantly Pashtun Taliban.  With their traditional enemy destroyed by the U.S, a leadership role in Afghanistan seemed within their grasp.

Evidence collected and collated by the U.S. Government has posed these and many additional questions over discrepancies and omissions between the “official” rendition and independent forensic and scientific analysis. Teams of independent investigators, to include several prestigious universities have concluded that the U.S. Government has not been forthcoming with the complete story. Contrary to wide-held belief, a result of media inundation of the public with incorrect information, if not propaganda, the FBI holds no uncorrupted and or incontrovertible evidence to link Osama bin Laden to the tragic events on 9/11. Investigators have disclosed that “not a single scrap of paper” emerged from indefatigable investigations in Afghanistan that indeed Osama bin Laden, the Taliban, or for that matter, not a single Afghan citizen served as mastermind, in a support role and or facilitator. (See: 9/11 Unveiled, Enver Masud, The Wisdom Fund, 2008, Arlington, VA). Additionally, numerous professional analytical engineer groups have noted several inconsistencies and omissions between the government’s presentation of structural evidence and their independent investigation which clearly indicated controlled demolition of the WTC Buildings. Analysts have stated too, that the lack of tail assemblies and other large pieces of wreckage at the sight of the attack on the Pentagon do not make for forensic sense.

 Passenger manifests enumerating alleged terrorist seat numbers aboard the fateful flights on 9/11 have been shown to be in error or deliberate identity theft. Indeed, those named as the ‘highjackers’ have been proven alive and well, though indignant at being cast as terrorists. (See:  A speech given by FBI Director Robert Mueller, 4/19/02, to the Commonwealth Club of San Francisco. As quoted in 9/11 Unveiled, by Enver Masud, 2008, The Wisdom Fund, Arlington, VA, p. 26).

Therefore, in the minds of a growing number of American and world citizens, there remains substantially more evidence to suggest that a ‘false flag’ operation has taken place than the espoused catechism as proffered to the American people by the Bush (43) and Obama Administrations.
