The fact that these secrets to present to the world

Ящик Пандоры с тайнами 11 сентября открыт

The U.S. Senate and House of representatives with an overwhelming majority on September 28 voted for overcoming the veto of President Barack Obama’s Law on justice for sponsors of terrorism (the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act — JASTA). Obama has previously stated that this act will have negative implications for U.S. officials abroad, because it establishes the principle that governments can be held responsible in court for what they do. Before the adoption of the Washington law, in General, adhered to the principle of sovereign immunity, which in practice means that governments resolve problems arising between them by negotiation, not litigation.

Now that Congress requires responsibility and accountability of foreign governments (authorities of the United States — ed.), it is reasonable to expect that other countries may respond in kind on the basis of reciprocity, using the language contained in the new law. This will mean that current or former U.S. officials can be arrested and prosecuted for criminal acts committed by the United States in their “war against terror”. It can also lead to the nomination against the United States lawsuits, which can be the requirements of what has been called “Intrusive” discovery of documents relating to covert U.S. operations abroad. In a letter to President Obama noted that the law JASTA will allow foreign parties on the trial “once again to doubt our counter-terrorism operations and other actions we take every day.” While defense Secretary ash Carter criticized “the ability of foreign parties in litigation to request secret intelligence data and analyses”. CIA Director John Brennan prophesied “the associated risks to our national security,” adding that the bill contains “alarming implications” for national security “potentially huge negative consequences.”

The so-called “(States — ed.), sponsors of terrorism” — Syria, Iran and Sudan — can already be tried in American courts, but JASTA significantly expands the playing field, allowing new lawsuits. Supporters of the law insist that their intentions are reduced to only make the possible lawsuits against Saudi Arabia, which could either be an accomplice of the terrorist acts of September 11, 2001, or treated them carelessly. Because, as you know, 15 of the terrorists were Saudis. However, in fact the wording of the law is much broader. His text does not mention specifically Saudi Arabia, States: “a Foreign state is not immune from the jurisdiction of United States courts in any case in which a foreign state shall be recovered monetary damages for physical damage to person or property or death occurring in the United States by reason of an act of international terrorism in the United States.”

I fully support the United States and Saudi Arabia (and others) were responsible for war crimes and other illegal behavior, including attacks with the use of drones, the movement of suspects, torture and targeted killings. However, even with this new law, the court almost certainly will be difficult to prove criminal intent, even in the form of “awareness or negligence”. This law also opens the Pandora’s box, as I’m sure lawmakers never thought, when I gave him their votes. Although the law was prepared in such a manner to make an unnamed Saudi Arabia its true purpose, it can also be applied against Pakistan, which probably financed the 9/11 hijackers, and even against Germany, where some of the participants of 9/11 for some time resided. There are reasonable grounds to assume that Islamabad, and Berlin had defined pre-emptive data about the attack, but these data they for some reason decided not to share (with the United States — ed.). And the respective governments will probably have to appear before a court of the United States in order to prove his innocence. By doing this, they — in my defense — you can even demand that the authorities of the United States has provided documentary evidence of what really happened on September 11, 2001. And this is exactly what the White house probably would like to avoid.

But potentially the biggest secondary purpose of the new act, no doubt, would be Israel. Israel’s role in 9/11, how it is possible to conclude, never seriously and not investigated. But assumptions and conclusions about the activity (of the Israeli authorities — ed.) was not included in the report of the Commission on the events of 9/11.

Meanwhile, in 2001, Israel carried out a massive espionage operation directed against the Muslims, or who lived at that time in the US, or travelling around the country. The operation included creation of a certain number of firms cover up in new Jersey, Florida and on the West coast who served as a spy front for Mossad officers. These efforts were supported by the Mossad station in Washington and included the use of a huge number of volunteers. This was the so-called “researchers studying art.” They have toured the country, selling various items in shopping malls and open markets. The FBI was aware of the fact that many Israeli students regularly exceeded their allotted visa period of stay in the country. Some in the Bureau, of course, believed that these students, one way or another, helped the intelligence service of his country. But to link the behavior of these students with the real covert operations proved to be very difficult, so they looked like small misunderstanding.

But this flippant attitude to the Israeli espionage has changed dramatically, when the September 11, 2001, one housewife in new Jersey saw something from the window of his apartment building overlooking the world trade center. She watched as the burned and fell the buildings, but also noticed something strange. Three young men crawled on his knees on the roof of a minivan parked near the shore (the Hudson river — ed.) and videoed himself against that catastrophic scene that was unfolding behind them. But they laughed and exchanged slaps hands over their heads. This woman recorded the registration number of the van and called the police. She responded quickly, and soon local police forces and the FBI began to search the car. As it later turned out, many other witnesses in other places along the coast (Hudson river) in new Jersey, too, saw the passengers of the machine “was celebrated and was filmed”.

By the registration number it was found that the van belonged to the company, registered in new Jersey called Urban Moving Systems. 4 hours in the afternoon, a vehicle was identified and stopped. Was discovered five men aged 22 to 27 years. Under the muzzles of guns they were detained and handcuffed. They were all Israelis. One sock was hidden 4700 dollars, another has two foreign passports. Sniffer dogs, trained to search for explosives, reacted to the smell of explosives in the van. The driver told police: “We are Israelis. We are not your problem. Your problems — our problems. The problem — the Palestinians.” These men were placed in jail in the Bergen County of new Jersey, and then transferred to the counterintelligence section of the FBI that handles cases that are suspected to spying.

After the arrest, the FBI obtained a warrant to search the office of the registered owner of the van, Urban Moving System company in Michocan, new Jersey. Was confiscated records and computers. The owner of the company, Dominic Suter, also Israeli, answered questions from the FBI. But when a few days later was scheduled for another questioning, it turned out that he left the country and went to Israel, put up for sale and your business, and your home. The office and warehouse was abandoned. Later it was discovered that in the USA, mainly in new Jersey, new York and Florida Suter was associated, at least, with fourteen businesses that were found to be actively used in operations by the Israeli intelligence against Arabs in the United States.

The five Israelis were held in Brooklyn, initially on charges related to visa fraud. The FBI questioned them for over two months. Some of them were kept in solitary confinement so as not to be able to communicate with each other. Two of them have repeatedly checked on the lie detector, and each time the test revealed the lies in their testimony. The FBI found that these two were serving officers of the Mossad, and three volunteer assistants, assisting in surveillance. And although the Israelis have not really collaborated, having examined the documents seized in their office in Wyocena, the FBI came to the conclusion that they worked for the Arabs, who were in new York and new Jersey, among whom at least two were the hijackers of 9/11.

Israel leads many threads that should be pulled. But the trail went cold. Police records in new Jersey and new York, where he was kept from these men, have now become unavailable. The coverage of this case in the media has faded, although at first these five in the press as the “dancing Israelis”.

Inevitably intervened by the White house. After 71 days detention five Israelis were released from prison, put on a plane and deported. It is quite possible that the Mossad Urban Moving firm actually was involved in 9/11. But we must recognize that Israel had the means, opportunity and access to the building necessary in order to demolish the world trade center with the use of controlled explosions. After more than 15 years later to talk about the fact that knew then and knows now the FBI of sizes, shapes and methods of work of Israeli spies in the United States. Had Israel critical intelligence comprehensive? Maybe Israel had specific information about 9/11 and allowed it to happen what happened, to more tightly tie Washington to his “global war on terror”?

Questions about what happened on September 11, just will not go away. The presidential candidate of the Green Jill Stein called for a new “independent investigation” because the initial investigation under the Bush administration has been “pressure from the members (of the Commission — ed.) is interested in protecting the reputation and careers of officials of the foreign office and the intelligence community.” Those who led that investigation, “did not give the necessary money, time and access to relevant classified information.” This “secret information” could well describe the role of Israel in this matter.

I’m not a lawyer, but it seems to me that both Israel and Saudi Arabia could be a good starting point in order to start a legal battle to determine who exactly was involved in what became the terrorist attack of 9/11. But, really, what ironically turned out to be the case, if it happened: Israel-loving Congress passed a law JASTA in order to squeeze money from Saudi Arabia, and as a result inevitably opens the door to the discovery of the true plans and intentions Mossad and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that they nurtured back in 2001.
