The U.S. Intelligence Community's Attack On The First Amendment
The FBI's agents are whores of the Illuminati who will never admit to their own outrageous and insidious crimes, while attempting to drive those of us whom they have committed such atrocities against to suicide, through their covert use of aggressive and illegal psychological warfare operations. To become a corrupted FBI agent is to become a traitor to all that is decent and moral. To sell your soul for a paycheck, while committing unspeakable atrocities against humankind. The FBI's Draconian operations are despised the world over and must be abolished along with this unchartered anathema to basic human rights.
There are some excellent electronic books on the Internet which document the severity of a myriad of crimes being committed by some aspect of the U.S. Federal Government, or the industrial complex which furtively controls it.
Eustace Mullin's "Murder By Injection" - a magnificent expose on the criminal syndicate Americans know as the American Medical Association has been removed by Scrib'd under the pretext that the publication was plagiarized. An outright deception, used in which to remove what is without a doubt the best research ever circulated in regard to the AMA's criminal operations.
The only thing which remains to access Eustace Mullins' "Murder By Injection" is nothing more than a hyperlink which goes nowhere. However, if you can purchase this book online or find it at your library, it would be wise to read it while you can, before Intel has it removed from these venues as well.
"Murder By Injection" by Eustace Mullins - A Horrifying Expose On The House Of Rothschild's Control Over The American Medical Community
Eustace Mullins' "Secrets Of The Federal Reserve" is along with G. Edward Griffin's "The Creature From Jekyll Island," the best research ever done on this criminal fraud that Americans refer to as the Federal Reserve System. Read it while you can:
Secrets Of The Federal Reserve By Eustace Mullins - The House Of Rothschild's Use Of The Federal Reserve System To Secretly Take Over The United States Federal Government & The American Economy
Another alternative author who did an excellent job of creating an easy to read electronic book called The Fraudulent War: The Facts About The Bush Administration's 'War On Terror' has also been denied his 1ST Amendment rights to freedom of speech, now that his E-book is being electronically interfered with by the Intel community. This interference is likely being caused by the FBI, since it is the FBI which has "jurisdiction" to operate over the Internet. However, what the FBI does not have the authority to do, is to deliberately electronically tamper with Websites that criticize some criminal aspect of the U.S. Federal Government, which is a serious violation of the 1ST Amendment. Then again, the FBI has never respected the American people's right to freedom of speech, anymore than it has their privacy under the 4TH Amendment. In fact the FBI has a long and notorious history of criminally violating both these aspects of the Bill of Rights.
The link to Richard Behan's E-book appears to be all that remains of this well researched monograph, which gives us the real reasons for the terrorist attacks on 9-11-2001, who the likely culprits are, and what they've gained from perpetrating these terrorist attacks since 9-11. This author has read Richard Behan's E-book and summarized in the following articles some of the more important issues that Mr. Behan discusses in The Fraudulent War: The Facts About The Bush Administration's 'War On Terror.'
See Richard W. Behan's E-book entitled: The Fraudulent War: The facts about the Bush Administration's 'War on Terror.'
http://coldtype.net/Assets.08/pdfs/0308The%20Fraudulent%20War.pdf
As you read through this disturbing information, you will begin to understand why Richard Behan's book is no longer accessible from the Web. That is, as long as Intel continues to "electronically tamper" with the Website on which a PDF copy of this downloadable book can be found.
Richard W. Behan's free electronic book entitled "The Fraudulent War - The Facts About The Bush Administration's War On Terror" is very well researched and can be read in less than two hours.
After reading Behan's book, I listed the hyperlink to a Website on which it is downloadable in PDF format, which at the time worked properly. However a few months later the site would no longer download.
Behan's excellent book identifies the Zionist group which refers to itself as The Project For A New American Century, as the driving force behind the attacks on 9-11-2001, while carefully following a series of chronological events, which only serve as further proof that PNAC took control of the Bush Administration and maintained control of it throughout the entire eight years that George W. Bush was in the White House.
This book also focuses on the failed negotiations of the Bush Administration with the Taliban and General Dostrum of Afghanistan's Northern Alliance, in order to break the contract which the Taliban had with Argentina's Bridas Corporation, in which to build an oil pipeline in Northern Afghanistan which would run from the Caspian Sea to Asia.
After months of failed negotiations in which to break this contract, the Bush Administration gave the Taliban their final ultimatum - break off their relationship with Argentina or suffer the wrath of the Bush Administration.
The Taliban once again refused the deal only five weeks before the attacks on 9-11-2001 took place. The rest as they say is now history.
"On August 2 of 2001, the last negotiation with the Taliban ended with a terse statement by Christina Rocca of the State Department. 'Accept our offer of a carpet of gold, ' she said, 'or we bury you under a carpet of bombs.'"
"Unocal's wish for the removal of the Taliban appeared more and more likely to be fullfilled. With negotiations ended, 'Bush promptly informed India and Pakistan that the U.S. would launch a military mission into Afghanistan before the end of October.'"
"This was five weeks before the events of 9-11."
It is clear from the aforesaid statements that the Bush Administration was going to attack Afghanistan before the attacks on 9-11-2001 even took place. This being done in order to obtain the rights for Unocal to build the Trans Afghanistan oil pipeline, since the Taliban had refused to allow Unocal the right to do so.
However, the Bush Administration needed a plausible reason in which to attack Afghanistan, which they developed with their accusation that Osama Bin Ladin and the Taliban attacked the World Trade Center and Pentagon on 9-11-2001. Even though the FBI at the time said that it had no evidence to suggest that Bin Ladin was involved in these attacks. Since that time, the FBI has changed its story. As have our elected officials and media system.
The fact that the attacks on 9-11-2001 took place only five weeks after the Taliban broke off negotiations with the Bush Administration, compounded by the statement made by Christina Rocca of the U.S. State Department, makes it obvious that the PNAC controlled Bush Administration was responsible for the attacks on 9-11-2001.
A well planned false flag operation in which the Zionist controlled Bush Administration committed the high crime of treason.
As I previously stated, several months ago I noticed that I could no longer download Richard Behan's E-book from the Internet. I have attempted to download this E-book from a number of Websites only to find that the download freezes up.
Behan's Ebook is listed on several different Websites, yet I was unable to download it on any of them. So it would seem that the sites on which this book exists are being electronically tampered with in efforts to prevent people from reading the book.
*Either this, or Intel is again interfering with my Internet connection, and freezing up my computer screen when I attempt to download this book. For the past several years the NSA has routinely interfered with my Internet access through its Signals Intelligence operations.
Little wonder, since Behan's monograph is well researched and clearly points to the Zionist controlled Project For A New American Century as the driving force behind the wars in both Iraq and Afghanistan; as well as the likely catalyst behind the attacks on 9-11-2001. PNAC and its Zionist associates had the most to gain here. A situation in which they have managed to establish puppet governments within both Afghanistan and Iraq.
"In the fall of 2001, a full year before Congress authorized military force, the State Department undertook a policy-development initiative called 'The Future of Iraq Project'.
"The Oil and Energy Working Group' developed the disguise for the 'capture' of Iraqi oil. Iraq's nationalized industry would be transformed into a commercial, essentially private business.
"The State Department's strategy for Iraq's oil--in shorthand, the 'Investment/PSA package' was embedded by Paul Bremer's Coalition Provisional Authority into the developing public policies of post-invasion Iraq. American and British oil companies were deeply involved in the process, invited to do so by the Bush Administration.
"Eventually, the draft of an Iraqi 'hydrocarbon law' was produced. It was written in English."
Behan also discusses the Bush Administration's use of a major propaganda campaign which was designed by the White House Iraq Group, and used to terrify the citizens of the United States into complying with the loss of their inherent freedoms. This being done under the dictatorial Patriot Act.
A piece of legislation so abjectly treasonous that it must be repealed.
As the late Aaron Russo said myriad times before his untimely and tragic death, the entire war on terror is fraudulent, and being used by the Illuminati under its Rockefeller henchmen here in the United States in which to destroy the United States Constitution and its Bill of Rights. And with it any protections that the American people have, from a shadow government which is based on Totalitarian and Zionist doctrines.
A shadow government which in reality is based on the ideology of Communism.
This is also why we have a central bank in the United States which is based on Communism. A Zionist controlled banking system which operates through the privately held Federal Reserve System. Central banks are an offshoot of Communism. And Zionists are responsible for the creation and propagation of Communism.
Many people have stated that the United States is a capitalistic society, when in reality, it is a monopolistic society in which a minority controls the masses, while preventing the type of free market place which defines a capitalistic society.
Therefore, the concept of free enterprise in the United States is a farce.
"With the Taliban removed from power, Mr. Hamid Karzai is installed by the U.S. as head of an interim government. Subsequently, he is elected President of Afghanistan -- Mr. Karzai is a former consultant to the Unocal Corporation."
"The first U.S. envoy to Afghanistan is Mr. John J. Maresca -- Mr. Maresca is a former Vice President of the Unocal Corporation."
"The next Ambassador to Afghanistan is Mr. Zalmay Khalilzad -- Mr. Khalilzad is a former consultant to the Unocal Corporation. He is a founding member of the Project for the New American Century."
"On August 2 of 2001, the last negotiation with the Taliban ended with a terse statement by Christina Rocca of the State Department. 'Accept our offer of a carpet of gold,' she said, 'or we bury you under a carpet of bombs.'"
"On February 8, 2002, four months after the carpet of bombs, Presidents Hamid Karzai of Afghanistan and Perves Musharraf of Pakistan sign a new agreement for the pipeline. The Bridas contract is now moot. The way is open for Unocal."
Are you beginning to see a pattern here?!
The Intel community is making effective use of the Obama Administration to continue to promulgate the "war on terror" black propaganda campaign begun under the PNAC controlled Bush Administration.
The Obama Administration continues to take us in the wrong direction, while helping to perpetuate this egregious and treasonous lie. Richard Behan's Ebook does a credible job of exposing the war on terror for the black propaganda/false flag operation that it is, citing specific organizations which had the most to gain from the attacks on 9-11, and their aftermath.
The U.S. Military's recent focus away from Iraq and back to Afghanistan has to do with the development of the trans Afghanistan oil pipeline which the UNOCAL Corporation is now set to build from the Caspian Sea to Asia. A pipeline that was supposed to be constructed by Argentina, through the Bridas Corporation, until the United States used the attacks on 9-11 to foment an illegal war on Afghanistan, with the express purpose of destroying the contract between Bridas Corporation and the Taliban; a contract which was also authorized by the Northern Alliance.
The U.S. Military's present focus on Afghanistan is to maintain the puppet government installed by the Bush Administration at the direction of the Project For A New American Century so that this trans Afghanistan pipeline can be constructed and protected from sabotage. However, protecting a pipeline now being constructed by those who illegally invaded Afghanistan with the express purpose of building and controlling this pipeline, is a very cruel hypocrisy.
One must also wonder given President Barack Obama's deference to NWO insider Zibignew Brzezinski, a revanchist who would like nothing better than to wipe Russia off the face of this planet, just how long it will be before the U.S. Media system of disinformation is promulgating the need for a United States attack on Russia.
What Americans are now seeing is the mainstream media being used once again, as tool of disinformation, helping to promote yet another false flag operation in Afghanistan.
The bottom line here is one of U.S./U.K. Imperialism; an attempt by these New World Order pawns to control virtually every country on this planet, while using the bogus excuse of allowing their citizens to enjoy a democratic government - a government which neither the American people themselves nor those within the U.K have any longer. In fact, from the accounts of many Europeans, it would seem that all of Europe has become nothing less than a police state, as the Illuminati and its New World Order disciples of evil continue to usher in their one world oligarchical government based on the subservience of the citizenry to such a government. Hence, how far into the future will we be before witnessing a global revolution in which the citizenry of this planet join ranks in which to destroy the Illuminati?
As for our representatives, most of these politicians make the late P.T. Barnum look honest.

Author Richard Behan has done an excellent job of identifying the critical events which led up to the attacks on 9-11-2001, including the addition of 16 members of the Project For A New American Century to the Bush Administration shortly after George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and their PNAC minions *stole the election in 2000.
*See more on the Bush criminal syndicate's theft of not one, but two national elections in 2000 and 2004 -- http://advaloreminternational.com/palast.html
To say that the Project For A New American Century has been running the United States since January of 2001 is not an understatement.
"On January 30, 2001, 10 days after taking office, President Bush convened his National Security Council for an hour-long meeting. It was a triumph for the PNAC."
The fact that the 2000 presidential election ended as it did with Bush's own brother Jeb overseeing these events as the governor of Florida, while Jeb Bush, himself, was a member of the Project For A New American Century, only leads to further suspicion that the Bush family helped the PNAC to pull off one of the greatest and treasonous scandals in United States History, by denying Al Gore his rightful place as America's 43RD President, and installing George W. Bush as the PNAC's new puppet dictator.
In his book, Behan leads us chronologically through the creation of the PNAC back in 1992, their desire to attack Iraq for its vast oil reserves, and failure to convince then President Bill Clinton to go along with their plan.
He also cites the Bush Administration's *failed negotiations with Afghanistan's Taliban, to break their agreement with Argentina's Bridas Corporation, to build the Trans Afghanistan pipeline, and to make a new contract with America's Unocal corporation (one of the "4 Sisters") which would then build an oil pipeline from the oil rich Caspian Basin across Afghanistan.
Had the Bush Administration been able to come to an agreement with the Taliban in regard to this pipeline, the chances are that the attacks on 9-11 may not have been necessary, and that this "inside job" could have been avoided.
The attacks on 9-11 were engineered by the PNAC through the Bush Administration (and with the approval of the hierarchy within the U.S. Military Industrial Intelligence Media complex), for the express purpose of gaining access to the rich oil reserves in the Caspian Basin, and controlling them, by building and maintaining the aforementioned pipeline.
This along with gaining access to Iraq's wealth of oil is why Americans were attacked on 9-11. And why these attacks were an inside job perpetrated by the PNAC, through George W. Bush, and PNAC members, Jeb Bush, Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz, Donald Rumsfeld and the rest of their treasonous PNAC cronies.
With U.S. dominance in both Afghanistan and Iraq, the PNAC has now begun to realize much of the agenda which it set out to accomplish when its members formed in 1992.
The PNAC's manifesto: "Rebuilding America's Defenses" offers further evidence of their intentions to attack Iraq nearly a decade before the attacks on 9-11 took place.
Excerpted from this manifesto:
"The United States is the world's only superpower, combining the preeminent military power, global technological leadership, and the world's largest economy.... America's grand strategy should aim to preserve and extend this advantageous position as far into the future as possible."
"Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event -- like a new Pearl Harbor."
Through a pattern of the most abject deception, the PNAC and Bush Administration have conned the American people into believing that they must surrender their Constitutional freedoms in order to combat the war on terror. However, to those who have researched the PNAC and Bush Administrations' collusion in the attacks on 9-11, and their subsequent and illegal wars on Afghanistan and Iraq, it has become clear that the PNAC and their Bush Administration lackeys are the real terrorists whom Americans must now focus on.
"With the Taliban removed from power, Mr. Hamid Karzai is installed by the U.S. as head of an interim government. Subsequently, he is elected President of Afghanistan -- Mr. Karzai is a former consultant to the Unocal Corporation."
"The first U.S. envoy to Afghanistan is Mr. John J. Maresca -- Mr. Maresca is a former Vice President of the Unocal Corporation."
"The next Ambassador to Afghanistan is Mr. Zalmay Khalilzad -- Mr. Khalilzad is a former consultant to the Unocal Corporation. He is a founding member of the Project for the New American Century."
"On August 2 of 2001, the last negotiation with the Taliban ended with a terse statement by Christina Rocca of the State Department. 'Accept our offer of a carpet of gold,' she said, 'or we bury you under a carpet of bombs.'"
"On February 8, 2002, four months after the carpet of bombs, Presidents Hamid Karzai of Afghanistan and Perves Musharraf of Pakistan sign a new agreement for the pipeline. The Bridas contract is now moot. The way is open for Unocal."
Are you beginning to see a pattern here?!
"In August of 2002, President Bush appointed the 'White House Iraq Group.' Its members were primarily political operatives or public relations/communications people. Their role was explicitly to market the war, to persuade the American people -- and eventually the Congress-- of the need to invade Iraq.
The group operated in strict secrecy, sifting intelligence, writing position papers and speeches, creating 'talking points,' planning strategy and timing, and feeding information to the media.
This was the nerve center, where the deliberate campaign of propaganda was created, packaged, and promulgated.
Its work was described in a Washington Post story (August 10,2003) with a telling headline: 'Depiction of Threat Outgrew Supporting Evidence.'
The group chose to emphasize the nuclear threat over all others, overstating , exaggerating, or misstating available intelligence. The campaign of lies and deception was deliberate - and successful.
In 2008, the Center for Public Integrity published a detailed report of the propaganda campaign. It tallied a total of 935 deliberate lies and charted their distribution through time, from 9/11/2001 until after the invasion of Iraq. A huge increase in the frequency of lies took place in September, 2002 - when the White House Iraq Group launched its program.
On September 17, 2002, President Bush adopted formally the belligerent stance first articulated in the Defence Planning Guidance of 1992 and refined by Rebuilding America's Defenses in 2000. On that day Mr. Bush signed The National Security Strategy of the United States of America.
Pre-emptive war was now formalized: it was the policy of the United States."
So who were the Americans who helped the Project For A New American Century and Bush Administration to perpetrate this treasonous campaign of deception?
"The White House Iraq Group" consisted of the following members:
Karl Rove
Karen Hughes
Mary Matalin
Andrew Card
James Wilkinson
Nicholas Calio
Condoleezza Rice
Stephen Hadley
"Scooter" Libby
Michael Gerson
"The 'investment/PSA package' in the hydrocarbon law grants immensely profitable access for international oil companies to 81% of Iraq's undeveloped crude. The companies in position to exploit the law are Exxon/Mobil, Chevron/Texaco, Royal Dutch/Shell, and BP/Amoco."
Otherwise known as the "4 Sisters" of the oil industry.
"The hydrocarbon law in now the keystone of the Bush Administration's war in Iraq. It is the evident culmination of the Administration's intention stated in the February 3, 2001 memorandum '... regarding the capture of new and existing oil and gas fields.'"
"President Bush made passage of the hydrocarbon law a mandatory 'benchmark' in his speech of January 10, 2007 announcing the troop 'surge'"
"He spoke of the law as if it had been a product of a 'democratic' government in Iraq. In fact, the provision transforming the Iraqi oil industry, the 'investment/PSA package,' was developed in his own State Department five years previously.
By insisting on passage of the law, Mr. Bush is asking the Iraqi Parliament to legalize the virtual theft of much of the country's crude oil.
The United States Congress, controlled by the Democratic Party, is complicit in this. The benchmark was included in the war funding bill it passed and President Bush signed on May 25, 2007.
In a letter dated May 18, 2007, twenty four U.S. citizens' groups had asked Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Reid to drop the oil law benchmark from the funding bill. The letter was ignored."
The Bush Administration is complicit in treasonous crimes against the American people, including the destruction of our Constitutional Republic, the premeditated murders of nearly 3000 of our own people in the attacks on 9-11, the deaths of more than 4000 American soldiers since the attacks on 9-11, and over a million Iraqi and Afghan men, women and children.
Moreover, the following statements made by Richard Beyhan in his book about this treasonous fiasco are perhaps the most chilling aspect for why the Bush Administration attacked Afghanistan and Iraq, while using a myriad of carefully crafted smokescreens in which to prevent the American people from ever learning that such a deception of themselves as a sovereign nation, had even taken place:
"But the terrorists' hijacked airliners were not the vanguard of a naval armada, an air force, and a standing army committed to full scale war, which Pearl Harbor represented in 1941.
9/11 was a criminal act of international terrorism. It was unprecedented in magnitude, but it was not a military invasion, threatening the safety of the entire nation. Crimes of international terrorism are typically resolved by international police action. There are many examples such actions succeeding in the past.
Police action, however, would not achieve the strategic objectives of the intended incursions into Afghanistan and Iraq. Only military action -- conquest and occupation -- would do that.
So 9/11 was equated with Pearl Harbor, and fear-mongering became the chosen mode of governance. It was an extreme violation of the public trust, but it served perfectly the Administration's need to justify warfare.
Warfare was guaranteed when President Bush insisted terrorists and states that harbor terrorists would be treated without distinction.
The Global War on Terror was born. Labeling the preplanned invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq as a 'Global War on Terror' was the mega-lie, the context for the propaganda campaign to follow. Since declaring the Global War on Terror, the Administration has bombarded the American people with a virtual mantra:
This is the struggle of our lifetime; we are defending our way of life from an enemy intent on destroying our freedoms. We must fight the enemy in the Middle East, or we will fight him in our cities.
Constant repetition of carefully orchestrated propaganda persuaded the American people -- and finally the Congress-- to support the Global War on Terror. With fearful images of 'mushroom clouds' (Condoleezza Rice) and 'hundreds of thousands' of prospective casualties (Vice President Cheney), the Administration nurtured the fear and developed the support.
The mantra went unchallenged by the mass media and by both political parties.
Then it became encoded: 'Support our troops.' American flags and yellow ribbons appeared throughout the nation."
"Only much later did well-respected public figures challenge the fear mongering head on. Wesley Clark, a Rhodes Scholar, retired 4-star general, and former NATO commander, attacked the mantra and the fear-mongering in a May 28, 2007 speech.
Al-Qaeda is not the existential threat to the U.S. the Bush Administration has portrayed, Clark said. 'We've lived five years under the threat of fear, and the threat has been manipulated.'"
"The first action of the Global War on Terror would be an attack on Afghanistan, which the Administration had been intending to launch since long before 9-11.
The simultaneous targeting of Osama bin Laden and Afghanistan's governing Taliban was a perfect expression of the Administration's 'melding' of security policy and international energy policy.
Apprehending bin Laden would be a pure play of security policy. And the removal of the Taliban from power would achieve an objective of energy policy.
The Bridas Corporation's contract to build the Trans Afghanistan pipeline would be nullified. The way would be open for Unocal to build it, instead."
Richard Beyhan's free E-book on the Bush Administration's war on terror fraud is 117 pages long. However, the print is large and there are many photos and illustrations that make for a quick read; one which will give all Americans a much greater understanding of the PNAC "business deal" that took place within the White House back in 2001, as well as the enormous cost that we as a nation will continue to pay for this High Crime Of Treason for many decades to come.

"The U.S. Invasion of Iraq was not preemption; it was... an avaricious, premeditated, unprovoked war against a foe who posed no immediate threat but whose defeat did offer economic advantages"
"Michael Scheuer served 22 years in the CIA. He was the agency's foremost expert on Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda."
In 2004, Scheuer resigned from the CIA in protest to the complete fraud that the Bush Administration perpetrated on the American people, in regard to the bogus war on terror and their Illuminati orchestrated war for oil.

Bush Preaches Democracy, Proposes Tyranny
The Fraudulent War on Terror
By PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS
Americans had best rethink the "war on terror" while they still have the liberty to do so. For all of President Bush's blah-blah talk about bringing democracy to the world, the Bush administration has proved that it is no friend of liberty at home.
The Bush administration has violated constitutional principles, US law, and the Geneva Conventions as no previous administration has done. Here is a short list of the Bush administration's crimes:
Spying without court warrants on Americans in violation of both the US Constitution and the FISA statute.
The denial of habeas corpus, attorney-client privilege, due process, and Geneva Conventions protections to those, American or foreign, designated without evidence as terrorists or enemy combatants.
The justification and use of torture to coerce confessions and the kidnapping of foreign nationals who are sent to be tortured in foreign prisons.
The initiation of military aggression against states based on intentional deception by the Bush administration of the US public and the United Nations, and the intentional fabrication of "evidence" to justify unprovoked aggression against sovereign states, which is a war crime under the Nuremberg standard established by the US.
Violation of the oath of office to defend the US Constitution by practically every member of the Bush administration and Congress.
Bush has assaulted the separation of powers and the rule of law with "signing statements" and "executive orders" that President Nixon's White House Counsel John Dean says are commands that treat the co-equal branches of government and the electorate as subservient to executive authority. In April 2006, Boston Globe reporter Charlie Savage listed 750 laws "challenged" by the Bush administration. Not even the demonized president of Iran claims to be above the law.
Genocide against the people of Iraq where one million Iraqis have died as a result of Bush's invasion and several million Iraqis are displaced persons.
Massive civilian casualties in Afghanistan, which is a form of genocide in which military force is routinely applied to unarmed noncombatants.
Massive corruption in which no-bid contracts are issued to Republican corporations in exchange for kickbacks to political campaigns.
The theft of two national elections as documented in books by Mark Crispin Miller and Greg Palast.
The Bush administration has even conducted Stalinist show trials against innocent Muslim charities as part of its propaganda to make the American people fearful that they are surrounded by hostile terrorists. In December 2001 President Bush declared the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development to be a "terrorist organization" and seized the charity's assets. Bush put the charities' officials on trial as terrorists. Six years later on October 22, 2007, after years of investigations and two months of testimony by who but "Israeli intelligence agents" (according to the New York Times), the US government's case fell apart in the courtroom.
One of the jurors said that the case " was strung together with macaroni noodles. There was so little evidence."
Georgetown University professor of constitutional law David D. Cole said the case "suggests the government is really pushing beyond where the law justifies them going."
While committing these unprecedented crimes, President Bush has claimed the moral high ground despite having lied to the American people and despite devastating two countries in the name of "making the world safe from terrorists." When people in Iraq and Afghanistan are asked who are the terrorists, they answer that it is the Americans.
The Bush administration has not been held accountable for any of its crimes. By failing to hold government accountable to law, the Constitution, and the American people. the opposition party and the corporate media have abandoned their responsibility to protect freedom and democracy in the United States.
There can be no democracy where there is no government accountability, and there is no government accountability in the United States--except, of course, to the Israel Lobby.
Now the Bush administration wants to take away the American people's freedom to travel within their own country by airplane. Not content with an 80,000 "no fly" list, a subset of a 500,000-750,000 "watch list," the Bush administration's Transport Security Administration has proposed new rules that will require Americans to get government permission 72 hours in advance prior to being allowed to board a domestic flight.
The TSA justifies this extraordinary violation of our constitutional rights on the grounds that 90 to 93 percent of all travel reservations are final by then.
So what?!
And what of the 7 to 10 percent of flights that the TSA estimates are not on the books 72 hours in advance? These are family emergencies and critical business deals. What does the TSA care if a member of your family dies while you await the government's permission to fly?
Any agency of the government that can propose such a tyrannical regulation should be abolished. The TSA's mentality shows it to be a far greater threat to Americans than are terrorists.
Even without the "permission to fly" rule, the TSA's practices are ridiculous and unjustified. The confiscation of tooth paste and unopened bottles of perfume, the harassment of US military officers in uniform, the harassment of old people struggling with their walkers, of mothers struggling with small children--none of this makes any sense except in terms of getting Americans accustomed to harassment as a citizen's duty to government and to train a cadre to conduct warrantless searches of fellow citizens.
The no-fly list itself is absurd. If a known terrorist were to show up at an airport, he would be arrested, not refused permission to fly. Anyone else who can clear security like other passengers has every right to fly.
Set aside the violation of the Constitution and the Soviet-style tyranny of the loss of the freedom to travel and consider merely the practical aspect of the proposal. What American wants his travel plans dependent on a government bureaucracy capable of putting US Senator Ted Kennedy on the "no fly" list and capable of issuing US visas to two of the alleged 9/11 hijackers six months after they allegedly died in the 9/11 events?
If we believe the official story, 9/11 itself reveals a government totally devoid of any competence whatsoever.
The "war on terror" is fraudulent. The cruel war and the deceptive vocabulary that protects it are a cover for expanding US and Israeli hegemony in the Middle East and for constructing a functioning police state at home. A country in which people cannot make airline reservations without the government's permission is not a free country.
