Le reportage de l’émission Enquête sur les opérations Mr Big: À mi-chemin entre les techniques policières et les opérations clandestines

Ce reportage de l’émission Enquête de Radio-Canada sur les opérations policières de type « Mr Big » laisse un goût amer. On aurait pensé, dans un pays comme le Canada où supposément la démocratie libérale se porte bien, que ce genre de tactiques ou de méthodes policières sont utilisées plutôt rarement. Eh bien, non. Il semblerait qu’elles soient fréquentes. Les deux cas présentés dans le reportage, celui d’Alain Perreault, et celui de Sebastian Burns et Atif Rafay, nous montrent comment certains corps policiers canadiens utilisent ces techniques pour pouvoir incriminer des suspects dans des dossiers où les preuves sont difficiles à obtenir. Ils « vont à la pêche », autrement dit, et cela leur permet presque toujours non seulement de porter des accusations mais aussi d’obtenir des condamnations. Dans le dossier de Sebastian Burns et Atif Rafay, vous aurez l’occasion de voir mon collègue Daniel Laprès, qui a suivi le dossier de près, sans jeu de mots, pendant plusieurs années.

En gros, je dirais que ce genre de techniques me semble dépasser largement le cadre du mandat des forces policières, qui est celui d’accumuler des preuves concernant des crimes qui ont été commis, pour ensuite procéder en cour lorsque le procureur estime qu’il y a suffisamment de matériel pour accuser quelqu’un. Avec les opérations de type « Mr Big », on se retrouve dans un monde où les opérations policières normales côtoient l’univers lugubre des opérations clandestines des services de renseignement et le monde du crime. Cela nous rappelle à tous, peu importe qui nous sommes, en ces temps de descente dans les bas-fonds du fascisme, que personne n’est désormais plus en sécurité. Avant, il suffisait à un individu de payer ses impôts, de ne pas commettre de crime, de travailler, de ne pas emmerder ses voisins, pour avoir la paix et ne pas avoir d’ennuis. Mais plus maintenant. Ceux qui dirigent la société, avec tous leurs sbires et collabos, peuvent décider, n’importe quand, au moment où cela fait leur affaire, de monter une opération contre quelqu’un pour le foutre en prison. Plus personne n’est en sécurité et ça, ce n’est pas la faute à ben Laden. Le problème se situe plutôt entre les deux oreilles de nos élites politiques et économiques. Mais à quoi bon suivre et obéir à toutes ces lois si l’on peut se faire « framer » à tout moment par des scénarios de cinéma? Continuer la lecture →

Interview with Russ Baker on the Peter B. Collins Show

Listen to this terrific interview with Russ Baker, author of Family of Secrets and founder of WhoWhatWhy.com, a website dedicated to the pursuit of true, unimpaired and non-co-opted investigative journalism. Peter B. Collins receives him in his « secret » studio for a friendly conversation on subjects related to his work as a « forensic journalist ». Among different topics, the bin Laden case gets their immediate attention as Baker explores various issues and questions that he has concerning the timing, framing, engineering and crafting of the operation, and the communication or rhetorical job that was done by the Administration afterwards. For example, Baker notes that as the official version kept changing constantly, it was a clear sign that the story was in fact scripted, which opens many options in terms of what really happened in the first place. The DNA test, the burial at sea, the behavior of bin Laden when the operation occured, the behavior of women in the compound and several other elements lead Baker to raise serious doubts concerning the veracity of what we are being told by Washington. You know that I, for myself, was a skeptic form the start, as you may have read it in this earlier post written 48 hours after the events. Also, Baker proves again that he is a great person to have on board for a radio host and Collins, as usual, offers all the space his guest needs to share with us his inner thoughts, in this case on the killing of bin Laden, which resumes itself in the end to be one of the most important PSYOPS in decades. Baker also touches on the subject of private Bradley Manning, the man who allegedly dumped a series of files to the WikiLeaks website. Baker comments on Manning in a way to make us realize that he is not really a whistleblower, like other observers have also said in recent past. I also propose to you a series of articles by Baker posted on WhoWhatWhy, that deal with the bin Laden execution to help you continue your study.

Yeah, my favorite Big Mouth strikes back. It is always a pleasure to hear a brave and intelligent man speaks his mind, so here he is again on what used to be the most wanted bogeyman on Earth. He suggests a very interesting lead for future investigations though, and that is that all the money which the United States is giving to Pakistan is, in fact, protection money to « convince » them not to drop the bomb on anyone, and not on the U.S. Nevertheless, it didn’t stop local A.Q. Khan network to sell reactor parts to North Korea, Iran and Libya… So maybe it wasn’t enough… It definitely deserves further study, I think.

The symbolic execution of Osama bin Laden: a reverse 9/11 and the burial of the most wanted bogeyman

Well, it was due to happen one day or another. After all, its hard to have a bogeyman walking around free and not catch him. According to the official version, bin Laden has been hiding in a compound in Pakistan for years. The CIA, with the help of a courier who had access to the building, located him. So the President gave the order for the assault. After the execution, his body was allegedly transported to the sea where he was given to it in respect, or so we are told, to Islamic practices.

Well…I have a few questions, as many of us have. First, how come that the most well financed and organized intelligence agency in the world, or at least supposedly, the CIA, can’t find Osama bin Laden immediately after 9/11? How come it took them 10 years before being able to locate him? In an earlier post, I presented you a few extracts of one of late William Cooper‘s radio show The Hour of the Time. In that show, Cooper makes the case that a CNN reporter was able to find Osama bin Laden in June 2001, with a camera crew, but that the CIA couldn’t find him nevertheless, with all their resources. Don’t you find it strange? And don’t you find it strange too that the CIA, knowing at that point where bin Laden was, didn’t do anything to capture him before 9/11? The CNN reporter could have led the CIA to bin Laden’s cache, case closed. But apparently, it was not that important to catch bin Laden after all. Second, if in fact he was hiding in Pakistan, what is the level of involvement of the Pakistani government, military or intelligence service in this? If that’s the case, they were definitely playing behind our backs, but that would be consistent with the ISI modus operandi anyway. Third, the Americans can’t produce the body… How convenient. Also, the Administration said it can’t produce any photographs of bin Laden’s body because these might be too graphic and bloody and could thus inflame reactions in the Muslim world. Again, how convenient. No body, no photos. In a court of law, these proceedings would be turn down. Any violent death and its cause has to be authenticated by a coroner. The Special Forces proceeded with a burial at sea, supposedly to be in conformity with Islamic Law. It made the body disappear however, so it is impossible for anyone to confirm and authentify the identity and death of the world’s most famous bogeyman. A few reactions came already from the Muslim world saying that this burial at sea was not at all in conformity with Islamic Law. 2000 years ago, the body of Jesus was snatched and now it is bin Laden’s body that is. Are they trying to tell us something here? Fourth, the Administration said that a DNA test was performed and that bin Laden’s identity was confirmed at 99,9%. However, according to a Canadian doctor in my area, apparently a DNA test takes 3 weeks to complete. So? How come they managed to have the results in just a few hours or minutes after the « death »?
