The Story That Was Never Told!
By Jim Kirwan
Source
Late in the day on 9-11-01, this story should have appeared on the front pages of every American Newspaper, and should have been running non-stop on CNN and every other network media outlet on the planet. But it was buried and has been totally forgotten by the so-called media at every possible turn. (1)
The story is this:
'Did Israeli's execute 911? On September 11, 2001 NYPD arrested two Israelis fleeing in a truck filled with explosives. They took two to three people in custody. Why did the truck the Israelis were driving, filled with explosives, have a mural painted on the side of the truck depicting the first plane hitting the first tower? The truck was loaded with thousands of pounds of explosives and was headed for the George Washington Bridge. The FBI said that there were tons of explosives inside the van that could have done great damage to the George Washington Bridge. The FBI arrested the two suspects. (CNN tape of this is included in the video). NJ State Police pulled the van over and began to question them. Under questioning the Israelis said that their purpose was to document the event (no explanation was ever given about the tons of explosives, in their van or about why the mural depicting the first plane hitting the first tower was painted (professionally) on their van (which had to have been completed long before the day of the attacks).
The bomb squad was called, to deal with the truck, between 6th and 7th on King Street. The two occupants had fled, and were arrested after the truck exploded. Five men total were detained 8 hours after the attack on the towers, according to the New Jersey News (on screen). All the Israeli's arrested worked for Urban Moving Systems, a Mossad front company. After 71 days the 5 Israeli's were taken out of jail, put on a plane and deported back to Israel.'
If these five had been Americans they would have made front page news, and this incident would have been all over the news. But because they were Israelis, and therefore (protected suspects), no stories appeared, and no photographs of the truck with that damning mural on its side were ever published: At the time. Because if that had happened it would have been clear who killed all those people on 911, and it wasn't a crew operating from a cave in Afghanistan!
Had this story been given the coverage it deserved; there would have been no ATTACK on Afghanistan, because the events of 911 would have been seen for the crime of mass murder which it was; and not as the Governments of Israel, Britain and the US wanted this to be seen. Mossad and the FBI as well as the CIA were all complicit in this coverup, along with those terrorist cells in Washington D.C., more commonly known as the legislative, executive and judicial branches, of this government.
Just as the demonstrators inside OCCCUPY need to stop just-watching and start acting; the American public must begin to DEMAND ANSWERS to this and other events that have gone on now for over ten years without ANSWERS. What this means is that all those people that we killed after 911 were murdered for yet another lie; and that this massively important lie changed the history of the United States forever. Because without this false-flag story of 911, there could never have been a PATRIOT ACT or TSA, never mind the invasion and slaughter of millions of people in both Afghanistan and Iraq; not to mention all the additional millions that have come after those two more lies that must be added to the events of 911.
The FBI was the agency that released these Mossad operatives back to Israel - we need to find and arrest the FBI officials that let them go;
ALONG WITH THE HIGHER-UPS THAT ORDERED THEIR RELEASE - and we need to do this BEFORE THE END OF THIS WEEK!
If this story does not become the front-page news that it did not become on 911; then it will be clear that the mainstream media here is also complicit in the events behind this extremely revealing story of the van with the mural of the first tower being struck-before the day even arrived for that to have happened.

Robbery In Progress!
By Jim Kirwan

"Do you want to know the real reason banks aren't lending and the PIIGS have control of the barnyard in Europe?
It's because risk in the $600 trillion derivatives market isn't evening out. To the contrary, it's growing increasingly concentrated among a select few banks, especially here in theUnited States.
In 2009, five banks held 80% of derivatives in America. Now, justfour banks hold a staggering 95.9% of U.S. derivatives, according to a recent report from the Office of the Currency Comptroller.
The four banks in question: JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE: JPM), Citigroup Inc. (NYSE: C), Bank of America Corp. (NYSE: BAC) and Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE: GS).
These are four of the Big-Six Banks that people are pulling their money out of NOW. Six-Hundred-Trillion dollars is a huge payday; so WHY aren't any of the agencies responsible for protecting the people of this country, even remotely interested, in preventing this CRIME!
At the very least this is a HUGE CRIME IN PROGRESS, that has been discussed worldwide; yet our own government's criminal agencies have yet to even blink. Since seven months BEFORE 911, the FBI has occupied itself with hunting down innocent Americans, spying on us 24-7 and even creating 17 separate fake bombing stories in which they turned out to be both the originators of the idea and the agency that furnished the money & the material to supposedly catch terrorists: only to have the whole thing in each case, blow up in their filthy-un-American faces? (2)
Now this story has surfaced and AGAIN, where is the un-American FBI they're protecting the bad-guys, as usual, when what they should be doing is insuring that the public is not robbed blind: AGAIN!
"Derivatives played a crucial role in bringing down the global economy, so you would think that the world's top policymakers would have reined these things in by now - but they haven't. Instead of attacking the problem, regulators have let it spiral out of control, and the result is a $600 trillion time bomb called the derivatives market.
Think I'm exaggerating?
The notional value of the world's derivatives actually is estimated at more than $600 trillion. Notional value, of course, is the total value of a leveraged position's assets. This distinction is necessary because when you're talking about leveraged assets like options and derivatives, a little bit of money can control a disproportionately large position that may be as much as 5, 10, 30, or, in extreme cases, 100 times greater than investments that could be funded only in cash instruments.
The world's gross domestic product (GDP) is only about $65 trillion, or roughly 10.83% of the worldwide value of the global derivatives market, according to The Economist. So there is literally not enough money on the planet to backstop the banks trading these things if they run into trouble.
Compounding the problem is the fact that nobody even knows if the $600 trillion figure is accurate, because specialized derivatives vehicles like the credit default swaps that are now roiling Europe remain largely unregulated and unaccounted for." (1)
So are we to believe that there is absolutely nothing that can be done about this "Crime of the Century" that continues to unfold? The smallest of the victims here are the people who still have their accounts in these Mega-banks that are now attempting to lock out their customers and otherwise are scrambling to prevent people from taking their hard earned money out of these criminally-connected banks!
The rest of the public that has yet to act needs to begin to move very swiftly TOMORROW, to insure that they can get their money back before these Banking Monstrosities implode!

Will U.S. Submit Its Case Against Iran to Arbitration or Will it Take Unilateral Action?
U.S. CAN DEMAND ARBITRATION
OVER ALLEGED IRANIAN PLOT
By Sherwood Ross
“If the Obama administration truly believes it has credible evidence that Iran was behind this alleged plot to assassinate the Saudi diplomat on the streets of Washington D.C., then it must invoke the Protection of Diplomats Convention(PDC) and demand arbitration of this claim with Iran,” a distinguished American authority on international law says. The diplomat Iran is accused of plotting to kill is the Saudi ambassador to the U.S.
“In the event Iran were to reject such arbitration, then the Obama administration could sue Iran at the International Court of Justice in The Hague, the so-called World Court of the United Nations System,” says Professor Francis Boyle of the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.
Boyle recalled that during the Iranian Hostages Crisis, “the International Court of Justice rendered an overwhelming victory on behalf of the United States against Iran that played an important role in the successful resolution of that crisis. So the World Court is an eminently fair institution to resolve this latest international dispute between Iran and the United States.”
On the other hand, Boyle continued, “If the Obama administration’s real motivation is to concoct and manufacture a pretext for a crisis resulting in provocations and hostilities, it will continue to argue its so-called case to the Western news media which is inherently biased against Iran, instead of resorting to this regularly established and already proven to be effective international judicial dispute settlement procedure.” The PDC was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 1973.
Boyle has been involved in major international cases challenging U.S. defense policy on nuclear and biological warfare activities and against its preemptive wars. He is the author of numerous books on these issues, including, “Tackling America’s Toughest Questions,” (Clarity Press), and he was responsible for drafting the Biological Weapons Convention.
The headlines about the alleged conspiracy have successfully sensationalized U.S. charges. There was no comparable publicity in U.S. media when Iranian nuclear scientists have been actually assassinated.
Over the past several years three Iranian scientists involved in that country’s nuclear effort have been murdered, the most recent this past July. (An attempt on the life of a fourth scientist was foiled.) The Times said the killings are widely believed to have been the work of Israeli agents and were conducted “with tolerance from the United States.”
Also, as the Times reported: “Both countries (Israel and America) are believed to have worked in recent years to sabotage Iran’s program to enrich uranium, smuggling damaged components into Iran’s supply chain and destroying centrifuges by planting the so-called Stuxnet computer worm.”
The goal behind those actions appears to be to continue Israel as the dominant nuclear power in the region. Israel, which declines to cooperate with the International Atomic Energy Agency, is believed to possess some 200 nuclear warheads. It has not signed the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty of 1996 and refuses to allow international inspection of its facilities. Iran, by contrast, has no nuclear weapons and the former head of the IAEA said recently there is no evidence that Iran is attempting to build one.
Gary Sick, an Iran expert at Columbia University told The New York Times October 15th, “The Iranians absolutely believe the U.S. and Israel have been carrying out a covert campaign against them and clearly they are right.”
Resorting to assassination, though, would be the worst possible response for Iran. Given past official Iranian statements disavowing retaliation for the murders of the three scientists, the new charges brought by the U.S. about the Saudi ambassador plot must be viewed with some skepticism. According to the Associated Press, an Iranian official has said Iran would not retaliate for the “ugly phenomenon” of the killing of their scientists. By refraining from any revenge killing for its scientists, Iran has sought to place itself on the high ground in the dispute.

IKE'S GRANDSON REISSUES "MILITARY-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX" WARNING---A LITTLE TOO LATE?
By Sherwood Ross
David Eisenhower, grandson of the president who warned Americans of a “military-industrial complex(MIC) 50 years ago, says in an essay this month that that coalition today “retains significant influence...” Yes, indeedy! In fact, when the Pentagon gets more than half of all taxes collected from the American people and spends more for war than all our 50 governors spend to run their states, his phrase “significant influence” may be a wee bit understated.
As the National Priorities Project(NPP) of Northampton, Mass., puts it: “Since 2001, the U.S. has spent $7.6 trillion in security-related efforts, including: Department of Defense base-line, nuclear weapons, Homeland Security and war.” The $500 billion being spent just on the F-35 fighter-bomber jet alone is feeding Lockheed Martin and Pratt & Whitney and 1,300 other suppliers from nine countries and 48 U.S. States, a business magazine reports.
What’s more, NPP says, this year’s spending of $122 billion just on the Afghan war “is greater than the 2012 deficits of 42 states and the District of Columbia combined.” (Holy cow, Batman, you could run America on that money!)
In a gentlemanly essay published in “Bloomberg BusinessWeek” magazine of September 5th, (the source of much of the other military data in this article), Eisenhower writes that Pentagon budgets today “remain large, and the U.S. military operates globally in a way not remotely foreseen 50 years ago.” Again, how true! Fifty years ago who could have imagined a Pentagon involved in six wars of aggression in the Middle East! When Eisenhower’s brilliant grandfather ran the army, the United States was not a country that started wars. Instead, it finished them. Why, it defeated the great powers Germany and Italy in three and a half years while today’s Pentagon has dawdled around for 10 years trying to wrest control of tiny Afghanistan and just can’t seem to manage it! Indeed, a person with a paranoid turn of mind, such as myself, might even suspect the MIC wants an ongoing war or two to keep contractor profits at their historic record highs!
And because the American cause was just in 1944, the entire civilized world rallied behind General Eisenhower as he brilliantly organized and directed the invasion of Hitler-occupied Europe. By contrast, today the entire world, including a majority of Americans, opposes the U.S. and NATO presence in the Middle East, and wants them O-U-T, out!
And who could have imagined in President Eisenhower’s day any American president believing he owns the kingly right to wipe out any human being on the planet without first consulting a judge and jury? Yet Mr. Obama, with perhaps divine guidance from the CIA, follows this routine regularly. And so what if innocent civilians, including children, are incinerated suddenly by exploding missiles aimed at the enemy from drone attack planes? So what if the USA has become the world’s No. 1 jailer and is holding thousands of prisoners without jury trials in squalid conditions and denies that torturing them is torture?
In his essay Eisenhower writes that his grandfather meant every word of his famous warning. Proof: the popular (“I like”) Ike slashed military spending 27% during his eight years in office. The contemporary Eisenhower says the MIC phrase wasn’t “just words written for him by a speechwriter...Watching segments of it (Ike’s Farewell Address) today, no one who knew Dwight Eisenhower can doubt the earnestness of his words or that they are his own.”
That Farewell Message, Eisenhower writes, “conveyed his deeply held values: his dedication to America’s adventure in free government” and our “charted course toward permanent peace and human betterment.” Those undoubtedly were Ike’s values, all right, but they hardly represent the presidencies of George W. Bush and Barack Obama. Via their ongoing wars, America’s indentured taxpayers today lavish nearly as much on the military as the rest of the world combined. It is a nation that is even manufacturing noxious germ warfare in secret laboratories, and that has set much of its ingenious scientific community to the task of perfecting its killing machines. As Winston Churchill in a speech in the House of Commons once warned, a Nazi victory would sink the world “into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister, perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science.” (Is anyone tracking the number of otherwise splendid American universities where germ warfare is being researched right on the campus?)
As for “human betterment,” that phrase can hardly describe the 1-million innocent victims killed by USA in Iraq, the millions of wounded, the millions forced to flee their homes and/or country. And as the Pentagon bleeds the American people for wars they don’t want, “human betterment” doesn’t describe the fate of America’s 95-million with housing problems(source: Habitat for Humanity), its 50-million without health insurance(source: AP), its 13-million unemployed,(source: Robert Reich) its 44-million on food stamps(source: Department of Agriculture), and its record 46-million living in poverty(source: Census Bureau).
“Retains significant influence?” Ha! Ha! I'm laughing all the way to the firing squad.
