The investigation of Rita Katz on Operation Green Quest

This radio show by Dave Emory explores the heroic investigation of private citizen Rita Katz on Operation Green Quest that led to the Holy Land Foundation trial. Her work allowed us to unveil the deep penetration of the GOP and of the Bush Administration by islamist elements from the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and Al-Qaeda. However, her research was eventually subverted and neutralized by members of the CIA and FBI. Among several things, Dave Emory explores the role eventually played by the Ptech firm, owned and controlled by the Muslim Brotherhood, on the day of 9/11. In effect, the fact that it is Ptech that developped the threat assessment software used by the Air Force, the FAA and Norad could account for the confusion experienced on the morning of 9/11, which facilitated the attacks and delivered New York and Washington D.C. to hostile forces. Also, the role played by the Safa Trust and the SAAR network on the economic side of it is also explored, among other elements. Rita Katz has written a book titled Terrorist Hunter in which she chronicles the whole story.

Documentaire: Quand la CIA complote avec l’OLP

Ce documentaire présente des tractations et négociations stratégiques effectuées par la CIA avec l’OLP dans le but de sécuriser les intérêts américains dans les territoires de la région. Entre autres, il nous fait connaître le « merveilleux » personnage de Ali Hassan Salameh, lui qui a été impliqué dans le massacre des Jeux Olympiques de Munich de 1972 où plusieurs athlètes israéliens ont été assassinés par une faction palestinienne appelée Septembre Noir. Pour en savoir plus sur Salameh et l’opération de Munich, voyez cet épisode radio de Dave Emory. En gros, ce documentaire montre de façon éclatante le double discours des Américains, pro-Israël de façon officielle et publique mais irrémédiablement pro-arabe en secret, lorsque cela protège leurs intérêts nationaux

Interview with Fara Mansoor, Part 2: Iran may have nuclear capability since 1974…

This is part 2 of an interview that Fara Mansoor, a member of the Iranian Resistance, gave to radio host Dave Emory in January and March 1993, on three separate shows. In part 1, we saw that the 1979 hostage crisis in Iran was in fact a coup d’état in which the Republican branch of the CIA replaced the cancer ill Shah of Iran with Ayatollah Khomenei. The general idea of this coup was to replace the Shah with somebody fiercely anti-communist and, at the same time, to destabilize Jimmy Carter relatively enough to make him lose the next Presidential Election. In this second part of the interview, we now learn that Iran may have nuclear capability since 1974. This story is rather complex and involves a lot of names, dates and characters. So, instead of trying to present the integrality of it, I will rather illustrate the spearhead from which you will be able to continue the research. Note here that we have to remember that Iran, as a country, was a key component in a strategy to create and consolidate a military and ideological bulwark against communism.

According to Fara Mansoor’s investigation, the CIA provided nuclear capability to Iran during the time of the transition from Richard Nixon to Gerald Ford, in 1974. It was accomplished through an Iranian-born and American citizen nuclear scientist, sent by the CIA, named Dr Mojtba Taherzadh. At this time, Taherzadh was working for Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena. When he arrived in mid-1974 from the U.S., Taherzadh was placed at the head of the Nuclear Research Center in Iran. Then, he began researching and installing nuclear technology capable of producing nuclear weapons. In July 6th 1976, Dr Taherzadh signed a deal with Gifted Ink, one of Albert Hakim‘s companies, in order to acquire laser equipment to enrich weapon’s grade uranium. The sell export of this technology, fabricated by the Lischem corporation, was illegal at the time, so Hakim’s partner in Gifted Ink, Naim Perry, arranged with a CIA contact to smuggle it out of the country through U.S. Customs. Nevertheless, Bush Administration warnings at the time were saying that Iran might have obtained nuclear technology through China, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan and North Korea. Also, we have to remember that during these years, Iran signed contracts with France and the U.S. to obtain nuclear reactors. During this several hour interview, Fara Mansoor continues to present all the details and connections that need to be stressed out in relation with this event. To get the full story, please listen to the full interview and take notes. Continuer la lecture

John Loftus on the secret war against the Jews

This is a short interview with John Loftus, ex-U.S. Justice Department attorney. At the beginning of his career he worked on the Belarus file, which led him to uncover some inconvenient truths about the holocaust, the Jews, WWII, the Nazis and the involvement of the Allies in all these matters. At the peril of his own security and the one of his family, Mr Loftus published several astounding books, such as America’s Nazi Secret, The Secret War Against the Jews, Unholy Trinity: The Vatican, the Nazis, and the Swiss Banks, among others. His efforts in trying to educate the public about the dark corners of our history are priceless. We owe him a great debt of gratitude. That’s why I am encouraging you, after you watch that clip, to read his books. If you want to know more about him, and to continue listening to what he has to say about these very important issues, I suggest a recent interview he gave to Dave Emory for his weekly show « For The Record ». Have a good listening and above all, a good reading.

Fethullah Gulen nous invite à souper: L’analyse de Marc Lebuis et de Louise Mailloux

(J’ai apporté, en date du 22-02-2012, certaines corrections et ajouté des liens et références supplémentaires à cet article depuis la publication originale.)

En janvier dernier a eu lieu à Montréal le « Souper Annuel du Dialogue et de l’Amitié » où l’on pouvait retrouver des personnalités du monde universitaire, politique et des médias québécois. Or, le souper en question mettait à l’honneur l’organisation de Fethullah Gulen, que bien peu de gens présents semblaient connaître en réalité. J’ai déjà eu l’occasion de présenter le personnage de Fethullah Gulen et son oeuvre dans un article précédent. Pour résumer rapidement l’affaire, Fethullah Gulen est un islamiste turc qui tente de recréer l’Empire Ottoman des siècles passés, lequel, comme on le sait, était sous le contrôle de la Turquie. Pour ce faire, il a construit un vaste réseau d’infiltration très puissant qui lui a permis de prendre le contrôle d’une bonne partie du gouvernement turc, de la police et des médias. Toujours dans l’article précédent, vous retrouvez des entrevues et des liens où vous pourrez apprendre, entre autres, que Gulen, en plus de ses activités islamistes, semble avoir des liens avec la CIA. Aussi, les fameuses écoles qu’il a fondées, les madrasas, se retrouvent un peu partout dans le monde et elles servent de lieu de formation et d’embrigadement idéologique. Aux États-Unis, on parle plutôt d’ « écoles à charte ».

Ce qui est troublant ici, et Marc Lebuis et Louise Mailloux y font référence, c’est le degré de naïveté, de légèreté, d’insouciance, d’irresponsabilité avec lequel les élus, chercheurs universitaires et autres invités québécois ont accepté de participer à cet événement. Selon Benoît Dutrizac, la police de Montréal y avait également un représentant. Durant son entrevue, Marc Lebuis du site Pointdebascule.ca illustre le côté conflictuel et dangereux de ce genre de situations en rappelant la controverse qui avait entouré un programme mis en place par la GRC, l’unité d’approche communautaire. Lors de sa création, il visait à rapprocher la GRC des communautés culturelles, ethniques et religieuses dans un monde post-11 septembre. Or, les rencontres organisées dans le cadre de ce programme ont mis en présence des agents de la GRC avec des membres de groupes radicaux, ce qui avait fait réagir le ministre Vic Toews en 2010 de façon assez cinglante. Il ne fait plus aucun doute que les islamistes de tout acabit cherchent à acheter de l’influence en Amérique et en Europe et Fethullah Gulen n’en est qu’un parmi tant d’autres. Le plus effrayant dans cette histoire, c’est que l’on en vient à se demander jusqu’à quel point certains islamistes, Frères musulmans ou Cheiks du pétrole n’ont tout simplement pas acheté, littéralement, des élus locaux et des membres des services policiers et de renseignement, ainsi que des chercheurs universitaires, les uns pour qu’ils ferment les yeux sur leurs agissements, les autres pour qu’ils puissent donner une caution morale et intellectuelle à leur propagande. Louise Mailloux à raison: Les peuples occidentaux sont actuellement en train d’être reprogrammés pour accepter l’islam, avec les conséquence terribles que cela entraînera. Dans ce contexte, on peut s’attendre à ce que la liberté d’expression et la démocratie comme telles n’existent plus dans quelques décennies. C’est à nous d’agir maintenant si l’on ne veut pas que ce futur cauchemardesque s’abatte sur nous. Voici les deux entrevues, de Marc Lebuis et de Louise Mailloux.

Interview with Robert Parry on For The Record: The Bushes and the bin Ladens helped each other

This great interview with Robert Parry of the Consortiumnews website by anti-fascist researcher Dave Emory must be listened to. For lots of reasons but especially because we never get to hear the full story in the mainstream media, as well as in the so-called « alternative » media, on anything. It is always one side of the coin only, if ever one side is covered correctly without ideological biases, preconceptions, prejudices, etc. The received rhetorical line concerning 9/11 and its aftermath goes like this: « The evil Osama bin Laden and his Al Qaeda warriors have attacked America. George W. Bush, as a true Commander-in-Chief, has stood up against these bloodthirsty terrorists and he is making sure that America stays safe and secure. He has struck back at them by going to war in Afghanistan and in Iraq ». That’s the way it goes.

Well…like it is often the case in life, it is not that simple. To begin with, let me remind you of a couple of things. First, in 2001, the Bushes and the bin Ladens were on the board of directors of the Carlyle Group, which Dave Emory has studied and presented in For The Record # 347. The Carlyle Group is one of the most influential investment firms of the world. Only the greatest of all get the chance to sit on that precious panel. And on the day of September 11th 2001, they just happened to hold their annual investment conference. Probably only just a coincidence, one could say. Members could then watch live the events unfolding in Manhattan. Among others, Frank Carlucci and James Baker III were present. Second, let me remind you as well that on September 12th, when nobody else could fly in the U.S., 12 members of the bin Laden family were flown out of the country. Third, both the chief of intelligence for Saudi Arabia and the head of the FBI were replaced in the weeks just prior to 9/11, which is rather curious and frightening, to say the least.

All things considered, the « war on terror » has been good for both the Bushes and the bin Ladens. For George W. Bush, this war has allowed him to be in the spotlight and be admired as the great defender of America, to acquire additional powers for his presidency and finally to shout out all those who were contesting (rightfully) the validity of his election at the detriment of Al Gore. And for the bin Ladens, the war on terror allowed Osama to strengthen the cause of Al Qaeda and recruit new warriors. In 2004, only four days before the presidential election, Osama bin Laden released a video in which he denounced George W. Bush. Intelligence analysts at the CIA were of the opinion that Osama bin Laden was in fact trying to help George W. getting reelected. In effect, such a virulent attack against Bush by Osama before the election was obviously recuperated by the Republican team as an endorsement of John Kerry. That was enough to swing the vote in favor of George W. And why would Osama do such a thing, would you ask? Because Osama bin Laden and Al Qaeda didn’t want the U.S. out of Iraq, U.S. troops being too good for the cause of Al Qaeda.

Mr Parry talks about a lot of other different relevant points. One of them is the obvious biased coverage by the press of the performance of Democrat politicians. Robert Parry explains that a game of professional credibility assessment was at play in the media, as Conservative politicians were quite often accusing journalists of being « liberal ». Reporters reacted to these accusations by becoming harder and tougher on Democrats, unfairly most of the times, to establish their credibility, with the unfortunate consequence that Al Gore was treated miserably. Parry gives many examples. This is a great show. In order to listen to the audio archive, you must have Realaudio installed.

A Fireside Chat: Get to know more Dave Emory as he explains the concept of the « Underground Reich »

This show by anti-fascist researcher and radio personality Dave Emory is definitely « different » from the other shows. In this broadcast, we get to know more of Dave Emory as he explains a key concept of his political analyses, that of the « Underground Reich ». As a starting point, Emory presents a glimpse into the political  and military strategy of Sun-Tzu, a Chinese general, as he wrote in his manuel, The Art of War. Incidently, these few passages were excerpted in The Service: The Memoirs of General Reinhard Gehlen. Reinhard Gehlen, for those who don’t know, was Hitler’s intelligence chief for the Eastern Front before he was hired by the CIA at the end of the war. Through the Cold War, Gehlen continued to spy on the Soviets but then on for the benefit of the CIA. As Emory explains more in details what he means by the « Underground Reich », he tries to make us reflect on the possibility that such tactics as described by Sun-Tzu could very well be applied here in the western world, and on the means that we could use to fight back against them. Finally, through psychological, spiritual and metaphysical analyses, Emory invites us to reflect on the higher meaning of life and on what it means to resist and fight back against tyranny. This show is absolutely fabulous. This is a must-listen!
