I came across this site recently. It has a lot of good information for any interested. I found this particular article very interesting. It's a little long but it's definatley worth a read.


If there were any real terrorists, Jose Rodriguez would be dead.

Who is Jose Rodriguez? He is the criminal who ran the CIA torture program. Most of his victims were not terrorists or even insurgents. Most were hapless individuals kidnapped by warlords and sold to the Americans as “terrorists” for the bounty paid.

If Rodriguez’s identity was previously a secret, it is no more. He has been on CBS “60 Minutes” taking credit for torturing Muslims and using the information allegedly gained to kill leaders of al Qaeda. If terrorists were really the problem that Homeland Security, the FBI and CIA claim, Rodriguez’s name would be a struck through item on the terrorists’ hit list. He would be in his grave.

So, also, would be John Yoo, who wrote the Justice (sic) Department memos giving the green light to torture, despite US and International laws prohibiting torture. Apparently, Yoo, a professor at the Boalt School of Law at the University of California, Berkeley, was ignorant of US and international law. And so was the US Department of Justice (sic).

Notice that Rodriguez, “The Torturer of the Muslims,” doesn’t have to hide. He can go on national television, reveal his identity, and revel in his success in torturing and murdering Muslims. Rodriguez has no Secret Service protection and would be an easy mark for assassination by terrorists so capable as to have, allegedly, pulled off 9/11.

Another easy mark for assassination would be former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, who staffed up the Pentagon with neoconservative warmongers such as Paul Wolfowitz and Douglas Feith, who in turn concocted the false information used to justify the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan. Rumsfeld himself declared members of al Qaeda to be the most vicious and dangerous killers on earth. Yet Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Feith, Richard Perle, together with neoconservative media propagandists, such as William Kristol and Max Boot, have been walking around safe for years unmolested by terrorists seeking revenge or bringing retribution to those responsible for as many as 1,000,000 Muslim deaths.

Condi Rice, Colin Powell, who delivered the Speech of Lies to the UN inaugurating the invasion of Iraq, and Dick Cheney, whose minimal Secret Service protection could not withstand a determined assassination attempt, also enjoy lives unmolested by terrorists.

Remember the deck of cards that the Bush regime had with Iraqi faces? If terrorists had a similar deck, all of those named above would be “high value targets.” Yet, there has not been a single attempt on any one of them.

Strange, isn’t it, that none of the above are faced with a terrorist threat. Yet, the tough, macho Navy Seals who allegedly killed Osama bin Laden must have their identity kept hidden so that they don’t become terrorist targets. These American supermen, highly trained killers themselves, don’t dare show their faces, but Rodriguez, Rumsfeld, and Condi Rice can walk around unmolested. Indeed, the Seals’ lives are so endangered that President Obama gave up the enormous public relations political benefit of a White House ceremony with the heroic Navy Seals. Very strange behavior for a politician. A couple of weeks after the alleged bin Laden killing, the Seals unit, or most of it, was wiped out in a helicopter crash in Afghanistan.

If you were a Muslim terrorist seeking retribution for Washington’s crimes, would you try to smuggle aboard an airliner a bomb in your underwear or shoe in order to blow up people whose only responsibility for Washington’s war against Muslims is that they fell for Washington’s propaganda? If you wanted to blow up the innocent, wouldn’t you instead place your bomb in the middle of the mass of humanity waiting to clear airport security and take out TSA personnel along with passengers? Terrorists could coordinate their attacks, hitting a number of large airports across the US at the same minute. This would be real terror. Moreover, it would present TSA with an insolvable problem: how can people be screened before they are screened?

Or coordinated attacks on shopping malls and sports events?

Why should terrorists, if they exist, bother to kill people when it is easy to cause mayhem by not killing them? There are a large number of unguarded electric power substations. Entire regions of the country could be shut down. The simplest disruptive act would be to release large quantities of roofing nails in the midst of rush hour traffic in Boston, New York, Washington DC, Atlanta, Dallas, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco. You get the picture: thousands and thousands of cars disabled with flat tires blocking the main arteries for days.

Before some reader accuses me of giving terrorists ideas, ask yourself if you really think people so clever as to have allegedly planned and carried out 9/11 couldn’t think of such simple tactics, plots that could be carried out without having to defeat security or kill innocent people? My point isn’t what terrorists, if they exist, should do. The point is that the absence of easy-to-do acts of terrorism suggests that the terrorist threat is more hype than reality. Yet, we have an expensive, intrusive security apparatus that seems to have no real function except to exercise power over American citizens.

In place of real terrorists carrying out easy plots, we have “terrorist” plots dreamed up by FBI and CIA agents, who then recruit some hapless or demented dupes, bribing them with money and heroic images of themselves, and supplying them with the plot and fake explosives. These are called “sting operations,” but they are not. They are orchestrations by our own security agencies that produce fake terrorist plots that are then “foiled” by the security agencies that hatched the plots. Washington’s announcement is always: “The public was never in danger.” Some terrorist plot! We have never been endangered by one, but the airports have been on orange alert for 11.5 years.

The federal judiciary and brainwashed juries actually treat these concocted plots as real threats to American security despite the government’s announcements that the public was never in danger.

The announcements of the “foiled” plots keep the brainwashed public docile and amenable to intrusive searches, warrantless spying, the growth of an unaccountable police state, and endless wars.

The “War on Terror” is a hoax, one that has been successfully used to destroy the US Constitution and to complete the transformation of law from a shield of the people into a weapon in the hands of the state. By destroying habeas corpus, due process, and the presumption of innocence, the “War on Terror” has destroyed our security.

I think western countries have done more then enough to spur on the creation of terrorist organization. The epidemic may not be as wide spread as MSM makes it out to be, as the article alludes to, but it still exsists in my opinion.

Also, the term terrorist requires context. American revolution can be seen as an example of terroism against Britain but the context has been misconstrude to give it a better Image. Just an example. The suicide bombings in the middle east are seen as terrorist acts because they are targeting against western forces who are supposidly there to bring peace.

Just my two cents.

I have first hand knowledge of how ops were carried out in Gulf War I, which should be an indicator how terrorists are missing today. The first line of armor pushing through the lines included dozer blades. Instead of firefights they were all buried alive in their holes by the thousands and driven over. You can't imagine the depths of the horrors of war.

Reagan, Kennedy or Lincoln?

I really hope you mean Kennedy. The other two being good guys is a bit of a stretch.

Discussing the idea of sniping the current president isnt the smartest thing to do, especially on a conspiracy website like ATS...Id keep those thoughts to yourself, just saying...

Wow, this was spot on. This really is not something I've ever given a lot of thought to, but it makes much sense. Remember not so long ago when the suspected "terrorist" in New York claimed that the FBI tried to coax him into doing something or saying something that wasn't true? These organizations that supposedly protect our interests do not care about the truth. How can the US government stride around on its high horse while it is the most corrupt of them all?

That was a great point though about the Seals and government officials who started this crap. And it is so true that real terrorists wouldn't be thwarted by the TSA measures at airports. They wouldn't try to come up with more clever ways to get past them. No. They would simply move on to the next target, which is anywhere large numbers of people are gathered. There are many places besides airports where this occurs, and most of them do not have security measures.

And it is also true that if the "terrorists" actually planned and executed 9/11, one of the more elaborate and difficult plots, they would definitely be capable of doing worlds of damage on US soil, basically whenever they wanted. They obviously had funding, and could get into the US without a problem. That, plus a little creativity, is all they would need to cause a lot of damage, so why hasn't this occurred? Because the threat doesn't exist. The main threat is to US forces who attempt to occupy other peoples' lands. It just doesn't make sense that if there are all these terrorists running around who want to kill Americans, I sure haven't heard of any on US soil.

If there really were a large group of terrorists, a network, against the US, then I am willing to bet it wouldn't have been safe to leave your house if you lived in a large city, because with so many "terrorists" and supporters, they could cause all kinds of mayhem on a daily basis, with little likelihood of being caught...Because remember, they were smart enough to pull off 9/11, on the same day that the military was conducting an almost identical drill. Do you think THAT was luck? 1/365 for an event that has never happened in the history of the US? Either the terrorists were very good, and smart, and had inside help, in which case they would have carried out many more plots...OR the threat was never there to begin with, and Israel actually did participate in 9/11.

The events of that day have an intelligence operation written all over them. I don't think the US gov. did it, but Israel benefited greatly from what subsequently occurred. The Americans went in to fight their arch-enemies, the Muslims. It's as clear as crystal in my opinion, and it makes much more sense than any other explanation. Anyone who buys the official story of who carried out these attacks, and why, needs to explain how something so sophisticated could have been carried out, yet this sophisticated group was unable to carry out even the smallest of subsequent or previous attacks on US soil...
