A new CIA-Blackwater-et al American operative nabbed

[Catya Sher]

You mean no one here has yet reported this news which is of little interest
in reality -

but the US news agencies are falling all over themselves to hype it up ?
There were TWO versions of it on Yahoo News a few minutes ago.
Talk about overkill.
Most Yahoo commenters said the American man was asking for trouble by living there
especially with a name like his....


It was PressTv who broke the story first, however,
after the Chinese news agency reported it.
Interesting how slow the American news agencies were.


A Press Tv commentator made the obvious but
insightful observation that because it was an American national
it's going to dominate the pages of the world prress for
the foreseeable future;
whereas, had it been any other nationality,
no report would have even hit the news.

I would add that this is a classic case of American arrogance.
If a plane crashes, the world is told how many Americans were aboard.
As though everyone else is virtually expendable, and should not
be mourned or cared as much about as if Americans had perished
in the accident.

US national abducted in Pakistan

Pakistani security officials gather at the compound of the house of a abducted American citizen in Lahore, Pakistan on Saturday, Aug. 13, 2011.
Unidentified men have kidnapped a 63-year-old US national from his residence in Model Town area of Pakistani city of Lahore.


Senior Superintendent Police Investigation, Abdul Razaq Cheema, said on Saturday that the American man, identified as Justin Warner
[notice how some alias was provided to cover
his Jewish name: now reports are out that
he is Warren Wernstein], was taken from his residence by a group of ten persons, Xinhua reported.

Warner had been living at the compound for four or five years and only his guards and employees had been seen around his residence, neighbors said.

The abduction took place at 4 a.m. local time and the gunmen also beat the guard at the main gate, witnesses said.
No group has claimed responsibility for the incident.

All servants and guards working at the apparent residence of the US national are in police custody for interrogation, the police officer said.

Policemen have been dispatched to exit points of Lahore to prevent the gunmen from taking the American out of the city, police said

definitely a Blackwater/ US Spy operative, most likely behind Peshawar attacks, and other terrorist attacks.

Outcome will probably be the same, but who knows, Imran Khan is coming to power?

Now it emerges that the FRONT COMPANY,
JE Austin & Associates,
is based in, ha ha,
Arlington Virginia

That means for nearly SURE: CIA links
possibly a complete front organization,
one of so many.

Arlington, Alexandria - these locations
conveniently near Langley headquarters -
give the game away faster than you can say their names.


Yes you are right, Ashraf, because it ALSO now
develops that he was working on
SO-CALLED "development projects"
in the "lawless tribal areas" as American
news agencies are saying.
They are trying to hide the fact that this means
all the places that American readers may be
familiar with as the areas for
--drone attacks
--supposed bases for operations against NATO, etc.
targets of billions of dollars of American money
spent to "stop the taliban" -

surely some of it went through
Mr. WW to wreak havoc
and blame said Taliban fighters resisting the
American occupation across the very nearby border.


Most American commenters have said in various ways :

"what is this country doing in Pakistan anyway -
the US is bankrupt yet
this man is in charge of spending millions of OUR TAX dollars
to develop some "lawless tribal areas"
while local American industry has fallen apart &
we are BANKRUPT !!!
Get out of these countries and leave them to their own
lives"

The average American can figure out something is wrong
with the foreign policy of the last several decades.

But no one in the power elite will EVER listen to common sense arguments.

Only way out: Prayer to get these evil people out of control of
America
and for God-pleasing and God-ordained forces to take over here and in all countries

(LAHORE, Pakistan) — Gunmen abducted an American after breaking into his house in the eastern Pakistani city of Lahore on Saturday in an unusually brazen raid that illustrated the threat to foreigners in this militancy-wracked, U.S.-allied country.
The U.S. Embassy identified the victim as Warren Weinstein. A man by that name serves as the Pakistan country director for J.E. Austin Associates, a development contractor that works with the aid arm of the American government, according to a profile on the LinkedIn networking website. (See pictures of the Taliban's war in Pakistan.)
Pakistani police said the American was believed to be in his 60s, and had returned to Lahore the previous night from the Pakistani capital, Islamabad. He had told his staff that would be wrapping up his latest project and moving out of Pakistan by Monday, police official Tajammal Hussain said.
The profile says Weinstein is based in Lahore and has been in Pakistan for seven years. Calls to the company headquarters in Virginia were not immediately answered, but its website describes Weinstein as a development expert with 25 years experience and a Ph.D. in international law and economics. The company website says Weinstein headed a program that has been trying to help strengthen the competitiveness of various Pakistani industries. "He's a short, funny man with a quick wit," said Raza Rumi, a Pakistani journalist who last saw Weinstein about a year ago and said the American could speak a fair amount of Urdu. "He's a very laid-back guy, not too worried about security issues, not really paranoid at all."
According to Pakistani police, two of the abductors showed up at Weinstein's house and persuaded the guards there to open the gate by saying they wanted to give them food — an act of sharing common during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which started in August. As the guards opened the gate, five other men suddenly appeared. The assailants, who were armed, punched and kicked the security guards, overpowering them before storming the house. Several more abductors were believed to have entered through the back of the residence. (See the top 10 things you didn't know about Ramadan.)
The gunmen snatched the American from his bedroom, hustling him out of the house and into a nearby vehicle. They did not take any other items from the house, police official Attiqur Rehman said.
Police declined to speculate on the motive, and no group immediately claimed responsibility. Security forces are checking vehicles at posts on the outskirts of the city in hopes of finding Weinstein, said Ghulam Mahmood Dogar, a deputy inspector-general of police.
Kidnappings for ransom are common in Pakistan, with most of the victims being Pakistani. Criminal gangs are suspected in most of the abductions, but Islamist militant organizations, too, are believed to use the tactic to fund themselves through ransoms.
Militant groups also have targeted foreigners in Pakistan in other types of attacks, such as shootings or bombings. But it is rare for assailants to stage such a raid on a foreign victim's home. The Pakistani Taliban claim to be holding a Swiss man and woman kidnapped earlier this summer as they were traveling through a remote southwestern region. The militant group, which is based in the northwest tribal belt bordering Afghanistan, has demanded that the U.S. free a Pakistani woman convicted of trying to kill Americans in exchange for the Swiss pair's freedom.
Americans in Pakistan are considered especially at risk from militant attack because the insurgents oppose Islamabad's alliance with Washington and the U.S.-led war in Afghanistan. U.S. diplomats, aid workers and others are urged to take strong security precautions. Ties between Washington and Islamabad plummeted after an American CIA contractor in January shot dead two Pakistanis he said were trying to rob him. The American was held in a jail in Lahore for two months despite Washington's insistence he was immune from prosecution because he had diplomatic status. He was eventually freed after the victims' families were given compensation. (Watch how the killing of bin Laden has affected U.S.-Pakistan relations.)
Lahore is the capital of the eastern Punjab province, a region bordering India that is home to several of Pakistan's top militant networks, some of which are suspected of ties to Pakistani intelligence. Major attacks in Lahore include a 2009 ambush of Sri Lanka's cricket team that killed six police and a driver. The unilateral American raid that killed al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden on May 2 in the northwest Pakistani town of Abbottabad further soured ties between the two countries and led to increased scrutiny on Americans living in Pakistan.
Earlier this week, the U.S. State Department issued a travel warning for its citizens saying that American diplomats are facing increased harassment and they, along with aid workers and journalists, have been falsely identified as spies in the local media. Still, American lawmakers and officials have made a slew of trips in recent weeks to try to maintain the relationship with Islamabad.
On Saturday, U.S. Sen. John McCain arrived in Islamabad and met with top officials including Pakistani Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani. In a statement afterward, Gilani said he told the Republican lawmaker that Pakistan desires an enduring partnership with the United States.
