The lost American Platoon

[Toramana]

Yes, and the Reichstag fire, the sinking of Lusitania and so on and so forth.

Fine, Khaled Sheikh Mohammad did not plan 9/11. Nor did Osama bin Laden fund it. The 400 Jews who did not show up for work on 9/11 did it. However, Al-Qaeda did attack the American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania and they did, in fact, attack the USS Cole - all three actions being open declarations of war. They did all of this while taking sanctuary in Afghanistan.

And when the US came to Afghanistan looking for them, each and every one of them fled like the Quraish of ancient Mecca that they are and took refuge in Pakistan with their Punjabi masters. They left millions of Pashtuns exposed to vengeful and bloodthirsty rednecks, cowboys and other degenerates.

If Brezinski is guilty of setting the bear-trap in Afghanistan for the Soviets in 1979, Al-Qaeda is guilty of setting an eagle-trap in Afghanistan for the United States in 2001. They both wanted to defeat their enemies using Pashtun blood. But enough is enough. Pashtuns should wake up and identify their enemies.

Thanks LZ. It sums it all.

Al Qaeda, you said it, it was not Arabs.

Also, the Arabs who came to Afghanistan to help the mujahideens after 2001 have nothing to do with this. They are doing exactly what the Turks, the Chechens and Bosnians are doing in Afghanistan. Just because they are Arabs we should hate them ?

The thing is that America did not came to Afghanistan because of Arab terrorists. They attacked Afghanistan before 9/11 and Al Qaeda does not exist anymore in Afghanistan but they're still there.

...They did all of this while taking sanctuary in Afghanistan.

That may be true but you, like some others, are implying that they did so with open and pre-meditated malevolent intent or negligence. As though they took sanctuary in Afghanistan with full knowledge of the hell that would come to innocent Afghans from the Americans. It is my understanding that they took refuge in Afghanistan for two reasons; Pashtunwali and the fact that our tribes would protect and shelter them from their enemies until the dispute was resolved and the fact that Taliban government refused to release a fellow Muslim to the kuffar to stand trial in their illegitimate courts. It's only natural that someone seeking sanctuary would go to a place or people that openly offer them protection.

Acts of war?

The former CIA agent, John O’Neill who worked with the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force in New York and New Jersey stated that the USS Cole was hit by a specially-configured Popeye cruise missile launched from an Israeli Dolphin-class submarine. Israeli tests of the missile in May 2000 in the waters off Sri Lanka demonstrated it could hit a target 930 miles away. The ex-CIA agent also stated that Ambassador Bodine threw John O’Neill and his team out of Yemen lest their investigation began uncovering evidence that the Cole was not blown up by an explosive-laden boat but by an Israeli cruise missile.

The former CIA agent said the reason for the Israeli attack was to further galvanize U.S. public opinion against both Al Qaeda and the Democrats in the weeks prior to the 2000 presidential elections. The Bush-Cheney team could blame the Democrats for not taking the Al Qaeda threat seriously. However, this is exactly the tact the Bush administration took after taking office: failure to support the CIA-FBI’s Alex Station, pressuring John O’Neill and other agents like Minneapolis agent Coleen Rowley and others across the nation who detected activity involving Arab flight students, and pulling the plug on a major data mining operation directed against Al Qaeda code named Able Danger, which was being jointly run by the DIA and the Special Operations Command.

Do you know who John O' Neill is?

John O'Neill died on the first day of his job at the World Trade centre...on 9/11. Coincidence?

Questions mount in Kenya, Tanzania bombings



US government, Israeli intelligence had advance warning


By Martin McLaughlin
13 August 1998

The search for survivors of the bombing of the US embassy in Nairobi, Kenya ended officially at 10 a.m. local time Wednesday, with the death toll set at 247, and 5,436 injured. Another 10 people died and 70 were injured in the simultaneous bombing of the US embassy in Dar es-Salaam, in neighboring Tanzania, bringing the combined death toll to 257.

The gruesome task of fully excavating the blast site and recovering the remaining bodies continues. At least three Kenyan employees of the embassy are still missing, along with an unknown but likely much larger number of victims in the rubble of the Ufundi House, next door to the embassy.

Several hundred FBI and American police bomb site investigators have flooded Nairobi, cordoning off the area around the embassy and beginning efforts to determine the type of explosive used in the huge blast, as well as identifying the vehicle, believed to be a pickup truck, which delivered it. An official report on the techniques used in the explosion is not expected for many months.

What information has been made public in the international press, however, raises disturbing questions about the circumstances leading up to the bombing and the role of US and Israeli intelligence agencies.

Several US and Israeli sources, including ABC News and the Tel Aviv newspaper Ha'aretz, reported Wednesday that a US informant in Kenya had warned the American government two weeks before the blast that the Nairobi embassy had been targeted for a bomb attack.

The informant was a contact of Israel's Mossad intelligence service, but when American officials checked with Mossad about the reliability of the source, they were advised to treat the report with skepticism. No special security measures were taken at the embassy.

The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to comment on the Ha'aretz article. But the Israeli government's dismissal of this advance warning may account for its extraordinary effort to supply bomb experts and rescue teams in the wake of the bombing, for reasons which have not otherwise been explained.

A second warning was provided four days before the explosion, according the Nation, the English-language daily newspaper published in Nairobi. A security guard working near the Nairobi embassy saw a man videotaping the building, protected by two bodyguards. When the cameraman saw he had been observed, he and his escorts jumped into a car and sped away. The security guard reported the incident to guards at the embassy, who seemed uninterested. Even though, according to ABC News, all American facilities in the Middle East and South Asia had been put on security alert against a threatened terrorist attack, no special security measures were ordered in East Africa even after the second report.

Most accounts of the bombing in the American press have named a Saudi exile, Osama bin Laden, as the most likely suspect. Bin Laden, a construction multi-millionaire, is an Islamic fundamentalist opposed to the US military presence in Saudi Arabia during and since the 1991 Persian Gulf war. He fled Saudi Arabia in 1994 and reportedly now lives in Afghanistan.

But according to several of the reports, bin Laden was associated with the CIA-backed mujahedin guerrillas during their war against the Soviet military occupation of Afghanistan in the 1980s. Among these were the CIA-trained terrorists who later were convicted in the bombing of the World Trade Center in New York City.

The attitude of American officials to the investigations by Kenyan and Tanzanian police is also curious. After Tanzanian officials arrested several dozen people in Dar es-Salaam, the State Department belittled the action as little more than a roundup of "the usual suspects." The announcement by Kenyan President Daniel arap Moi that an unspecified number of suspects had been arrested in Nairobi was also dismissed as unlikely to represent an advance in the investigation.

The New York Times reported claims of some eyewitnesses in Nairobi that the truck used in the embassy bombing had American diplomatic license plates. Another eyewitness claimed that the man who leaped from the truck and threw a hand grenade just before the bomb blast was wearing a blue uniform identical to that worn by embassy guards.

Even more striking is a report carried in the Washington Post Wednesday, based on a leak from the CIA in which the agency claimed to have foiled two recent attempts to bomb American embassies in the Middle East. The Post article quotes Robert Oakley, the former State Department coordinator for counterterrorism, on the US efforts to infiltrate terrorist groups targeting American facilities.

According to the Post: "He recalled an episode in the mid-1980s when U.S. intelligence recruited a terrorist who had been assigned to bomb an American embassy in Europe. The putative bomber, Oakley said, was allowed to detonate a bomb inside the embassy compound in such a way that little damage was done, far removed from US personnel, so that his relationship with US intelligence was not exposed."

Taken together, these reports raise the possibility that the horrific loss of life in Nairobi and Dar es-Salaam may be linked, directly or indirectly, to covert operations by US intelligence agencies, in which individuals with past CIA connections but present grievances against the US government, such as the former Afghan mujahedin, were involved.

Such questions are not even considered in the American media discussion of the East African bombings, in which major newspapers and television networks are vying to supply one or another Middle East nation as a potential target for US military retaliation.

The New York Times suggested Libya as a target in its Wednesday news pages, while an editorial vilified Iraq. The Washington Post added Syria and Islamic fundamentalist groups based in Yemen and Egypt to the list.

The Wall Street Journal published a column the same day denouncing the Clinton administration for ignoring evidence that Iran was behind blasts, and declaring the attack on the embassies "an act of war." The Journal cited US bombing raids on Libya in 1986, ordered by Ronald Reagan, as an example for Clinton.

Another column in the Journal, by its Washington correspondent, revealed that the Pentagon changed the composition of US forces in the Persian Gulf region after last February's confrontation with Saddam Hussein, so that a protracted buildup would not be required before launching air strikes against targets in Iraq. Such attacks could be launched against Iraq--or any other target in region--literally overnight.

Palestinian Mohammed Sadiq Odeh was arrested at Karachi airport the
day after the embassy blasts, while traveling
on a fake Yemeni passport. The photograph in the passport bore no relation
to Odeh's appearance.

Under interrogation, Odeh confessed to helping plan the bombing, which
he said was ordered by the exiled Saudi
millionaire Osama bin Laden. He also gave details linking bin Laden,
who lives under the protection of the Taliban in
Afghanistan, to some of the most notorious terrorist attacks of the
decade, including bombings at US military targets in
Saudi Arabia and an attempt on the life of Egypt's President Hosni
Mubarak.

General Gul, the former intelligence boss who knows something about
false travel documents, believes Odeh is an
imposter, planted by a foreign intelligence agency - probably Israel's
Mossad or the US's Central Intelligence Agency -
to provide a justification for the cruise-missile attacks on bin Laden's
Afghan bases.

"It costs 1,000 rupees [about $30] to buy any passport officer at Karachi
airport. Odeh's millionaire backer bin Laden
hadn't given him that much money, nor even a reasonable forgery of
a passport? This man wanted to be caught," says
General Gul.

A leading defence analyst, Dr Shireen Mazari, agrees. "It just doesn't
make sense. Hard-core political terrorists do not
volunteer information the way Odeh has done. It's a set-up."

Odeh, and another suspect, Khalid Salim, were flown to New York on Thursday
to face formal charges relating to the
embassy bombing.

The stated aim of the US attacks was to destroy terrorist "infrastructure"
being used to plan more major strikes against
US interests around the world.

US officials with access to satellite photographs of the camps, near
the eastern Afghan town of Khost, said the
damage caused by scores of Tomahawk cruise missiles fired from warships
cruising in the Arabian Sea was
significant.

In the eight days since the strikes, the Afghan authorities have blocked
efforts by journalists to visit Khost. They said
only 27 people were killed at the Zhawar Kili al-Badr complex of camps.
At least six of them were Pakistani citizens
receiving weapons training to fight in the separatist war in Kashmir.

And who ends up looking like heroes:

Israeli know-how is saving lives--at least three since the team arrived Saturday afternoon. In turn, the operation in Kenya is boosting Israel's prestige and earning goodwill toward the Jewish state at a time when much of the world is blaming it for the collapse of the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.

Israeli rescuers here insist that their intentions are strictly humanitarian, and they refuse to discuss Middle East politics, which hang like a question mark over the near-simultaneous bombings Friday of the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. While no culprits have been identified, many political analysts suspect that Israel's enemies in the Arab world are responsible for the explosions and that Israel has an incentive to get close to the scene in Nairobi to gather intelligence.

*

In fact, military analysts say that while Israeli intelligence officers undoubtedly are on hand, they stand to gain little information from the broken buildings where the crews are working because the actual bomb site and American Embassy have been cordoned off by U.S. officials.

Rather, they say that Israel is repaying a political debt to Kenya, which served as a base for Israel's raid on Uganda's Entebbe Airport in 1976 to rescue the 106 Jewish passengers from an Air France flight hijacked by Palestinian terrorists. Of those, 103 were saved.

"Everything was done through Nairobi, including refueling and intelligence," said Zeev Schiff, military affairs correspondent for the Israeli newspaper Haaretz.

But to average Kenyans, the "why" of the Israeli effort is beside the point. To them, the important fact is that about 200 Israeli soldiers arrived to help before anyone else did.

"ISRAELIS STEP IN," the Nairobi Times heralded in a huge front-page headline.

"We are very grateful for these guys," said Elizabeth Njoroge, a Red Cross volunteer who had been wringing her hands over the poor rescue attempt the day before.

It's great that you know what constitutes as "Acts of War".

Don't forget that Clinton shot tomahawk missles into Afghanistan and Sudan, killing innocent civilians. And may have even bombed a masjid in Afghanistan.




"Wag the dog"...great movie. You should watch it.

Leader of “Kill Team” Pleads Not Guilty

Staff Sgt. Calvin Gibbs was described by one of his comrades as homicidal, as "evil incarnate"

by John Glaser, October 31, 2011

The US Army staff sergeant in charge of the notorious “Kill Team” in Afghanistan admitted in court on Monday to cutting the fingers off of the corpses of three Afghan civilians as trophies, but denied foreknowledge of a series of premeditated murders of Afghan civilians last year.
Staff Sgt. Calvin Gibbs was the senior-most soldier in the 5th Stryker Brigade in Kandahar province, the army unit that planned and committed executions of multiple innocent, unarmed Afghan civilians, framing the dead as having been a threat, boasting about their kills, and mutilating their corpses.
Gibbs has pleaded not guilty to 16 criminal charges ranging from murder to taking the fingers as bloody mementos. He maintains not only that he was told the Afghans killed were insurgents, but that the other five soldiers charged as part of the “Kill Team” are conspiring against him to shift the blame.
One of his comrades described Gibbs as “evil incarnate,” and alleged that he rallied his unit and encouraged them to kill civilians. Another in the unit, Corporal Jeremy Morlock, who tossed a grenade at an unarmed 15 year old civilian Afghan and then shot the boy repeatedly at close range with a machine gun, was sentenced in March to 24 years in prison. He is eligible for parole in 7 years.
The court considering the Gibbs case was shown graphic pictures of the “Kill Team” posing with their dead and smiling. They also murdered an unarmed man who may have been either deaf or mentally challenged. The man had half his skull blown off, and one member of the kill team collected it after the incident and carried it around as a trophy souvenir.
Gibbs’s comrades have “portrayed him as an imposing sociopath with little respect for life — a man who gunned down dogs without provocation, threatened fellow soldiers and who tallied his kills with skull tattoos on his calves,” according to the Associated Press. He is said to have commonly referred to his previous killings, like in Iraq when he fired on a car that refused to stop at a checkpoint, only to later learn that the vehicle was carrying an innocent Iraqi family. He tallied his kills with skull tattoos on his calf.
According to the Rolling Stone article that exposed these crimes to the public, “staged killings were an open topic of conversation” within the platoon, and the “Kill Team” had “‘a reputation,’ a whistle-blower named Pfc. Justin Stoner told the Army Criminal Investigation Command. ‘They have had a lot of practice staging killings and getting away with it.’”
