Happy Women's Day
03-08-09
HAPPY WOMEN'S DAY!!!
Women are wonderful and are the reason we are all here. They are the
reason we breathe, we work, we struggle, we go to war, and we live.
Women are our strength and our inspiration, our support and destination,
women shape the world we live in and make life worthwhile for all of us.
Every day should be women's day.
Women's Day
is a day when we celebrate and pay respect to all of the members of the
gentler sex. It is typical to buy presents, flowers, and cards for the
females who are closest to us; wives, daughters, girlfriends,
secretaries, bosses, and female colleagues. Normally men make speeches
expounding on the ways women are wonderful in respect for the fact that
they put up with us and that without them we could not survive. For
those of you who may need some ideas on how to behave on this day here
is my list on what to do and not to do on women's day.
1. Buy the
female(s) in question a gift. Chocolates, flowers, a card, a cake, a
vase, a jewellery box, some jewellery, a phone, a camera, or something
practical that she can use all year. Some fuzzy house slippers perhaps,
a blow dryer, makeup, a new bag, however be careful in choosing gifts
such as the latter and articles of clothing other than scarfs and gloves
Russian women are very touchy about what they wear and you may end up
just making her upset. Expensive gifts are not required but for those
closest to you they wouldn't hurt.
2. Do
something that you wouldn't normally do. Make her breakfast in bed, do
everything for yourself for one day, for example cooking cleaning up,
and laundry. Let her do whatever she wants all day. Go shopping with
her, watch a romantic film, take her to the movies, or anywhere else
that she wants.
3. Don't get
drunk and invite your buddies over to get drunk so she has to clean up
after your useless ass.
That is all
for now. I have to go shopping.

Defenders of the Fatherland Day February 23rd
Feb-23-2010
Greetings from jar2
Today is February the
23rd and Russia is
marking “Defenders of the Fatherland Day”. By many this can be loosely
taken to mean “Men’s Day” because on this day every man who has
contributed or contributes to the defense or the advancement of Russia is celebrated. First and
foremost we celebrate the soldiers and veterans and those who have given
their lives in the defense of the Fatherland, but for Russians on this
day it is also a day to celebrate those of us whose contributions are
not so visible; be him a teacher, a programmer, a doctor, a scientist, a
police man, a political commentator, an intelligence asset or officer, a
pilot, a machinist, an engineer, a politician, a government worker, a
judge or lawyer, a writer, an artist, a driver or even a farmer, every
man is a defender. Protecting your home and your homeland is the
responsibility of every man and doing so, even if you are not recognized
for your contribution, is an honor which makes each of you worthy and
honorable as Men. Jar2 would like to congratulate all the men on this
day and I hope that because of your work and your struggles all of the
women and children can feel safe, secure, and have wonderful lives and
that through the sacrifices we make everyday as men, sacrifices which
very few notice but which we as men bear day in and day out, we can make
the world a better place for all. I wish you all peace, love, success,
family, many children and the fulfillment of all of your dreams. For all
the women and children I would like to say this, appreciate your Man
today, for who he is and what he is, respect and honor him, not for what
he can buy you or what he can obtain for you but for who he is as a
person, and for the importance you are to him in his heart and in his
thoughts and show him by your deeds that you value and treasure him and
that he is needed by you. Recognize his worth and be proud, as proud of
him as he is of you every day. Happy holiday to all, I wish you all the
best that life has to offer but above all PEACE. John Robles II

Russia condemns US move to put missiles in Romania
(Poland, The Czech Republic, etc., etc.)
Jan-16-2010
The Kremlin said it was taken aback by news that Romania's top military
body had agreed to host
US SM-3 interceptor missiles and other military
infrastructure in response to an alleged missile threat from Iran.
Sergey Lavrov, the Russian foreign minister, said he had demanded an
"exhaustive explanation" from Washington, citing a treaty that would
prevent US ships delivering the necessary equipment via the Black Sea.

Dec-20-2009 Russian Special
Security Services Mark Their Professional Holiday
Russia’s security services turn 92 years old on
Sunday. On this day in 1917 the Soviet People’s Commissar passed a law
to form the all Russia Emergency Commission or (CHEKA). Until 1995 the
20th of December was celebrated as Chekist Day, after that date it came
to be known as the Day of the Members of the Security Services of the
Russian federation .
According
to the head of the FSB, Alexander Bortnikov, per the Security Services
Yearly Summary for 2009, 81 terrorist acts were uncovered and prevented
in the North Caucuses, 782 separatists and militants were detained, 42
counter terrorist operations were carried out, and an unspecified but
significant number of special service and intelligence operations, these
includes those of a military nature. More than 1,600 weapons, 490 IEDs
or (improvised explosive devices) and more than 5.5 tons of explosives
were also seized .
At
present, in the Russian Federation, there exist several Special
Services, the Federal Security Service or FSB, the External Intelligence
Service or SVR, the Federal Protection Service or FSO and The Main
Directorate of Special Programs of the President of the Russian
Federation. During Soviet times all of these Special Services were part
of the structure of the Committee for State Security, or KGB, of the
USSR.

President of Russia State of the Nation Address
President Dimitry Medvedev delivered his Presidential Address to the
Federal Assembly
At the beginning of his Address, President
Medvedev stressed that Russia must achieve the status of global power on
a fundamentally new basis. The country's prestige and national
well-being, Mr Medvedev noted, cannot be determined by past
achievements. At the cost of tremendous effort Russia became one of the
most influential industrial powers of the 20th century – in the 21st
century, Russia once again requires all-round modernisation.

CIA: 7 Dead
Officers in Epic Afghanistan Failure
CIA Ends 2009 With Another Epic HUMIT Fail
On Wednesday December 30, 2009 an Afghan infiltrator who was being
courted by the CIA as an asset detonated explosives he was wearing under
his Afghan military uniform. Seven CIA officers were killed and six
injured. In an epic fail scenario the bomber was able to take out the
chief of station and members of her inner circle, including the head of
her security detail and at least one of her advisors. What made this
case even more of an epic fail was that it took place not out in the
open in an insecure environment but inside the CIA's own operations
center. Why the CIA was using their central base, located in a war zone
nonetheless, from where drone attacks were being coordinated, to liaise
with Afghan officials, intelligence assets, agents, and potential
informants, is beyond my grasp. Apparently CIA has become so arrogantly
sure of their own invincibility that they have forgotten elementary
tradecraft. It is time for the CIA to get back to real spy work and step
out from behind their monitors, computer interfaces, and killer drone
joystick video game consoles, because they have obviously lost touch
with reality and have once again proven in a very major public and messy
way, that as far as HUMIT is concerned and human intelligence asset
management, the agency has completely lost focus and desperately needs
to get back to basics.
An agency run by a civilian, a video game operations center with a
female station chief, I am sure plays well to the public back home
but for an intelligence service bogged down by three wars and in a
complete quagmire, it makes little operational sense. The US is
arrogantly under the assumption that they will win in Afghanistan and
this is another example of how the CIA and the US grossly and
negligently underestimate the one factor that they have no real control
over. The human factor.
As for those killed and their families and loved ones, they must seek
answers and accountability from the pompous, arrogant, self-righteous
sons of bitches sitting in their secured bunkers in McLean Virginia and
Washington DC who allowed such an epic fail to occur.
This was a Pearl Harbor for the CIA the accountability for which should
be sought at the highest levels.
On a personal note: it is a tragedy when any human dies and I put off
publishing this until this late date out of respect for the dead, but
these people were responsible for the deaths of countless civilians as
they sat in their secure little rooms killing from a distance and in the
great Karmatic scheme of the universe they received what the deaths of
the innocent children they killed warranted.
Unfortunately rather than using peace, diplomacy and instilling mutual
respect the US continues to insist on using deadly force to make the
world bend to its will, and the future will hold more of the same for
those on the front-lines. If you beat a dog long enough it will
eventually jump up and rip your throat out, no matter how long it tries
to remain docile.

The Destruction
of Joe
by David Bowers
Read the latest
installments. Who is Joe?
The Destruction of Joe (01) The Last of the
Tainos (02) The Message (03)
The Rights of the Individual, the Sanctity
of Life, and the Survival of Human Kind (SOON)
The Street Team (05)
The surveillance team was parked in the van in the street below the
window of the apartment where Joe was dozing off in the chair. They were
using an old dark blue Gazelle van with Moscow plates registered to some
delivery driver in Ximki. On the outside it looked like every other old
dirty Gazelle delivery van, the dark blue paint was faded, there was
rust around the wheel wells and it was covered in road dirt. On the
outside the only modifications that were visible were the three
sunroofs, and if one listened closely and knew what one was listening
for one could make out the deep throaty idle of the 8.2 liter
super-charged Chevrolet V8. The Gazelle was not really a Gazelle, it had
a Gazelle body but that was all. Like the Hummer 3, it was mounted on a
Chevy Tahoe frame and the only outside sign of what was underneath apart
from the aforementioned, were the nine lug nuts on each of the dirty,
deceptively stock wheels. All told the team that was on Joe
consisted of 26 members, and while he was dozing they were also allowed
a break for which they were thankful. Following Joe was not an easy
task. Joe changed his method of transportation so much and habitually
used counter surveillance techniques that were sometimes better than
their own and could at times lose them at will it seemed. To be
continued....

A Note to Terrorists Worldwide
This is a note from someone who was almost one of
your victims.
As a person who can not stand injustice I have tried
to understand your cause and your grief and have looked for a rational
reason why you would send your women to blow themselves up and kill
innocent civilians, and to be honest I can not. After seeing lists of
the victims of your attacks and noting that each and everyone of them
were just innocent students and people trying to get to work to feed
their families, I came to the conclusion that you people must be insane,
irrational, and nothing but blood thirsty rabid dogs that must be put
down, liquidated, and wiped off the face of the earth. This same
opinion, without a doubt, is also held by almost all of the population,
all over the world, including true devout Muslims, who follow the
teachings of the religion which you blaspheme by hiding behind it to
justify your insane blood thirsty murderous lust. The true infidels of
Islam are you, for you have done more than any other grouping or
movement has ever or could ever do to bring shame and dishonor upon your
religion and your people. You have caused intelligent and fair-minded
people all over the world to despise you, and in turn, your religion,
which you hide behind. We live in a civilized world, and civilized
tactics must be used, not tactics as crude and ultimately self-defeating
as yours. If you have issues with Governments there are ways and means
to solve those through legal and peaceful channels. There are peaceful
means and peaceful tactics which you could employ and not shed one drop
of innocent blood, and in doing so you would gain the support, the
sympathy, the understanding and in the end the resolution of your
conflict. Killing innocents and targeting places which have nothing to
do with those you see as being the cause of your pain is not the way to
win anything. It shows to the world that you are nothing but mindless
rabid animals that must be liquidated, and you will be liquidated each
and everyone of you. And you will bring down fire and destruction and
death and the wrath of Allah or God or whatever you want to call her,
onto the heads of yourselves, your families, your children and your
race. So ultimately the end result of all your terror will be the
guarantee of your own extermination, and no one will miss you or see you
as martyrs. People will be happy you are dead and spit on your graves.
However if you use peaceful means and end your endless cycle of terror
and violence, then perhaps you will obtain the justice you seek. If in
fact it is justice you seek. I speak to you as human to human. You will
lose and you will guarantee your own total destruction if you continue,
Governments and the common peace-loving people of the world can not and
will not allow you to exist as long as you continue your terror. I
repeat once again, you will NEVER win, you are only bringing about the
destruction of everything and everyone close to you, stop the terror,
stop the hate, and start to seek peaceful means for a resolution. You
have seen what happened in Iraq. The US Government of George Bush got
away with staging a terrorist act to wipe out the Iraqi people and take
their oil by blaming terrorists. Terror and the murder of innocents is a
losing tactic, a coward's tactic, a lunatic's tactic and it will never
prevail. Never. Lay down your arms and seek peaceful resolutions before
it is too late for your people.
An open message to terrorists from jar2

The Bush Family's Project
Hammer
By Deanna Spingola In
1989 President George H. W. Bush began the multi-billion dollar Project
Hammer program using an investment strategy to bring about the economic
destruction of the Soviet Union including the theft of the Soviet
treasury, the destabilization of the ruble, funding a coup against
Gorbachev in August 1991 and the seizure of major energy and munitions
industries in the Soviet Union. Those resources would subsequently be
turned over to international bankers and corporations. On November 1,
2001, the second operative in the Bush regime, President George W. Bush,
issued Executive Order 13233 on the basis of “national security” and
concealed the records of past presidents, especially his father’s
spurious activities during 1990 and 1991. Consequently, those records
are no longer accessible to the public.1 The Russian
coup plot was discussed in June 1991 when Yeltsin visited with Bush in
conjunction with his visit to the United States. On that same visit,
Yeltsin met discreetly with Gerald Corrigan, the chairman of the New
York Federal Reserve.2
Because of numerous
Presidential Executive Orders, the ethically questionable Project Hammer
was deemed legal. Of course, even Hitler’s acts were “lawful,” as he had
manipulated the laws to accommodate his actions. Many of Reagan’s
executive orders were actually authored by Vice President Bush or his
legal associates, and it is possible that Project Hammer was created by
Reagan’s CIA Director, William Casey, who had directed OSS operations
through Alan Dulles in Europe during World War II. Prior to his OSS
affiliation, Casey worked for the Board of Economic Warfare which
allegedly targeted “Hitler’s economic jugular.”3 Allen
Dulles, brother of John Foster Dulles, was the Director of the CIA from
1953 to 1961. He was a senior partner at the Wall Street firm of
Sullivan and Cromwell, which represented the Rockefeller Empire and
other mammoth trusts, corporations and cartels.
Project Hammer
was staffed with CIA operatives and others associated with the National
Security apparatus. Covert channels were already in place as a result of
other illegal Bush activities. Thus, it was a given (1) that the project
would use secret, illegal funds for unapproved covert operations, and
(2) that the American public and Congress would not be informed about
the illegal actions perpetrated in foreign countries. The first
objective was allegedly to crush Communism, a growing political
philosophy and social movement that was initially funded by the usual
group of international bankers who now supported their demise. To this
end, the “Vulcans,” under George H. W. Bush, waged war against the
Soviet Union4
The Return of the Vulcans
In their reincarnation in the administration of George W. Bush, the
Vulcans functioned as a supposedly benign group, led by Council of
Foreign Relations (CFR) member Condoleezza Rice, who attempted to
augment and compensate for the Bush's lack of experience and education
concerning foreign policy during his presidential campaign. Rice had
been President George H. W. Bush’s Soviet and East European Affairs
Advisor in the National Security Council during the Soviet Union’s
dissolution and during the German reunification (July 1, 1990). The
resurrected Vulcan group included Richard Armitage, Robert Blackwill,
Stephen Hadley, Richard Perle, Rabbi Dov S. Zakheim, Robert Zoellick and
Paul Wolfowitz. Other key campaign figures included Dick Cheney, George
P. Shultz and Colin Powell, all influential but not actually a part of
the Vulcan Group. All of these people, associated with the George H. W.
Bush administration, returned to powerful, strategic positions in George
W. Bush’s administration.
Richard Perle and Paul Wolfowitz have
been accused of being agents for the Israeli government. Investigations
by Congress and the FBI have substantiated those allegations. Zakheim
and his family were heavily involved in Yeshivat Sha’alvim, an
educational organization in which students are taught to render absolute
commitment to the State of Israel.5
Many of these individuals
were also members of the Project for a New American Century (PNAC) which
was established in the spring of 1997 with the intention of promoting
American Global domination at any cost. The chairman and co-founder was
William Kristol, son of Irving Kristol (CFR), considered the godfather
of neo-conservatism which promotes the ideas of Max Shachtman and Leo
Strauss, a noted Zionist and professor of political science at the
University of Chicago. Kristol’s co-founder was Robert W. Kagan (CFR).
Kristol is also the editor and co-founder, along with John Podhoretz, of
the Weekly Standard Magazine, established September 17, 1995 and owned
by Rupert Murdoch until August 2009. This “conservative” magazine is
edited by William Kristol and Fred Barnes and promotes Middle East
warfare and a huge military budget, a mentality that infects the most
popular “conservative” talk show radio hosts. Kristol is a trustee for
the Manhattan Institute which was founded by CIA Director William Casey
and was staffed with former CIA officers.
The Vulcans had almost
limitless financing from a cache known by several names – the Black
Eagle Trust, the Marcos gold, Yamashita’s Gold, the Golden Lily
Treasure, or the Durham Trust. Japan, under Emperor Hirohito, appointed
a brother, Prince Chichibu, to head Golden Lily, established in November
1937 before Japan’s infamous Rape of Nanking, to accompany and follow
the military. The Golden Lily operation carried out massive plunder
throughout Asia and included an army of jewelers, financial experts and
smelters.6 While the Nazis also engaged in plundering
the countries they invaded, they were not as organized and methodical as
the Japanese. After the Allied blockade, Golden Lily headquarters were
moved from Singapore to Manila where 175 storage sites were built by
slave laborers and POWs. Billions of dollars worth of gold and other
plundered treasures were stockpiled in these underground caverns, some
of which were discovered by the notorious Cold Warrior, Edward G.
Lansdale who directed the recovery of some of the vaults. Truman and
subsequent presidents, without congressional knowledge, have used those
resources to finance the CIA’s chaotic clandestine activities throughout
the world. Much of the Middle East chaos is financed by those pillaged
funds. A tiny portion of that treasure was the source of Ferdinand
Marcos’ vast wealth. Marcos worked with the CIA for decades using Golden
Lily funds to bribe nations to support the Vietnam War. In return,
Marcos was allowed to sell over $1 trillion in gold through Australian
brokers.7
In July 1944, the leaders of
forty-four nations met at Bretton Woods, New Hampshire to plan the
post-war economy and to discuss organizing a global political action
fund which would use the Black Eagle Trust ostensibly to fight
communism, bribe political leaders, enhance the treasuries of U.S.
allies, and manipulate elections in foreign countries and other
unconstitutional covert operations. Certainly, those politicos who
managed the funds also received financial benefits. This trust was
headed by Secretary of War Henry Stimson, assisted by John J. McCloy
(later head of the World Bank) and Robert Lovett (later Secretary of
Defense) and consultant Robert B. Anderson (later Secretary of the
Treasury).8 Anderson later operated the Commercial
Exchange Bank of Anguilla in the British West Indies and was convicted
of running illegal offshore banking operations and tax evasion.
Investors lost about $4.4 million. Consequently, he was sent to prison
for a token amount of time, one month. He was also under house arrest
for five years. He could have received a ten-year sentence but Judge
Palmieri considered Anderson’s “distinguished service” to the country in
the “top levels of Government.”9
Between 1945
and 1947 huge quantities of gold and platinum were deposited in
prominent banks throughout the world. These deposits came to be known as
the Black Eagle Trust. Swiss banks, because of their neutrality, were
pivotal in maintaining these funds. These funds were allocated to
fighting communism and paying bribes and fixing elections in places like
Italy, Greece, and Japan.10 Stimson and McCloy, both
retired from government service, continued their involvement in the
management of the Black Eagle Trust. Robert B. Anderson, who toured the
treasure sites with Douglas MacArthur, set up the Black Eagle Trust and
later became a member of Eisenhower’s cabinet.11 In
order to maintain secrecy about the Trust, Washington officials insisted
that the Japanese did not plunder the countries they invaded. Japanese
officials who wanted to divulge the facts were imprisoned or murdered in
a way that made it look like suicide, a common CIA tactic.12
The Germans paid reparations to thousands of victims while the
Japanese paid next to nothing. Military leaders who opposed foreign
policies that embraced exploitation of third world countries were
suicided or died from mysterious causes, which includes individuals such
as George S. Patton, Smedley D. Butler and James V. Forrestal.
The Vulcan’s effort to crush Communism and end the Cold War was largely
funded by that Japanese plunder. The Vulcans were resurrected when
George W. Bush was installed as president in 2000, facilitated by
election maneuvers, probably lots of payoffs, and Jeb Bush’s purge of
Florida voters. They conducted other illegal operations, like securities
fraud and money laundering. This entailed murder and false imprisonment
to prevent penitent participants from divulging the activities of the
group. During the process of accomplishing the main objective of
destroying the Soviet Union, the operatives made massive profits. In
September 1991, George H. W. Bush and Alan Greenspan, both Pilgrims
Society members, financed $240 billion in illegal bonds to economically
decimate the Soviet Union and bring Soviet oil and gas resources under
the control of Western investors, backed by the Black Eagle Trust. The
$240 billion in illegal bonds were apparently replaced with Treasury
notes backed by U.S. taxpayers.13 To conceal the
clearance of $240 billion in securities, the Federal Reserve, within two
months, increased the money supply to pre-9/11 numbers which resulted in
the American taxpayer refinancing the $240 billion.14
The Takeover of Russia’s Oil Industry
BP
Amoco became the largest foreign direct investor in Russia in 1997 when
it paid a half-billion dollars to buy a 10 percent stake in the Russian
oil conglomerate Sidanko. Then in 1999, Tyumen Oil bought Sidanko’s
prize unit, Chernogorneft which allegedly made BP Amoco’s investment
worthless. Tyumen offered to cooperate with BP Amoco on the development
of Chernogorneft but BP Amoco was not interested.15 In
October 1998, Halliburton Energy Services had entered into an agreement
with Moscow-based Tyumen Oil Company (TNK). Their efforts were focused
on the four western Siberia fields, the first one being the
Samotlorskoye field.16 TNK has proven oil reserves of
4.3 billion barrels and possibly as many as 6.1 billion barrels, with
crude oil production and refining capabilities of 420,000 barrels/day
and 230,000 barrels/day, respectively. TNK markets gasoline through 400
retail outlets.17 In 2002 Halliburton and Sibneft,
Russia’s fifth largest crude oil producer, signed an agreement. Sibneft
will use Halliburton’s new technologies to improve well construction and
processing while Halliburton directs all project management.18
Tyumenskaya Neftyanaya Kompaniya (Tyumen Oil Company) was
established in 1995 by government decree. It is now TNK-BP, the leading
Russian oil company and ranks among the top ten privately owned oil
companies worldwide in terms of crude oil production. The company,
formed in 2003, resulted from the merger of BP’s Russian oil and gas
assets and the oil and gas assets of Alfa, Access/Renova group (AAR). BP
and AAR each own fifty percent of TNK-BP. The shareholders of TNK-BP own
almost fifty percent of Slavneft, a vertically integrated Russian oil
company.19 This transaction was the biggest in Russian
corporate history and was managed by Vladimir Lechtman, the Moscow
partner for Jones Day, a global law firm with thirty offices and 2,200
lawyers worldwide. TNK-BP, Russia’s second-largest oil company employs
almost 100,000 people and operates in Samotlor.20
Mikhail Khodorkovsky was the manager of Yukos, the company that he
built into Russia’s second-largest oil company after acquiring it for
$168 million when his Bank MENATEP, the first privately owned but
notoriously corrupt bank since 1917 and wiped out in August 1998,
purchased it through a controversial government privatization auction in
1995. MENATEP was named as a defendant in the Avisma lawsuit which was
filed on August 19, 1999.21 The bank may have
facilitated the large-scale theft of Soviet Treasury funds before and
following the USSR’s collapse in 1991.22 His company
had borrowed hundreds of millions of dollars from western banks.23
He was arrested on October 25, 2003 and sentenced in June 2005
to eight years on fraud and tax evasion charges. He was allegedly
targeted as a political enemy as were other big business owners who
apparently made money by acquiring states assets. Yukos was sold
piecemeal to pay off $28 billion in back tax charges. Yukos was seized
and given to Rosneft.24
When Khodorkovsky was
arrested, his secretive business arrangement with the Rothschild family
was exposed as Jacob Rothschild assumed Khodorkovsky’s 26% control of
Yukos while Khodorkovsky’s directorial seat on the Yukos board went to
Edgar Ortiz, a former Halliburton vice president during Dick Cheney’s
reign as CEO at Halliburton. Cheney, as President and CEO of
Halliburton, automatically had an association with the State Oil Company
of Azerbaijan Republic (SOCAR).25 In November 1997,
Dick Chaney, in anticipation of imminent events, had appointed Edgar
Ortiz as president of Halliburton Energy Services, their global
division.26
The Yukos Oil Company merged with
the smaller Sibneft Oil Company on October 3, 2003 which created
Russia’s largest oil and gas business and the world’s forth-largest
private oil company.27 On May 11, 2007 Halliburton
announced they had made an agreement with the Tyumen State Oil and Gas
University to open a new employee-training center in Russia to grow
their business in that country and in the surrounding region. They are
currently training students from five countries, Kazakhstan, the
Netherlands, Norway, Russia and the United Kingdom.28
Halliburton was awarded a $33 million contract by TNK-BP to provide oil
field services to develop the Ust-Vakh field in Western Siberia.29
September 11 – Black Op Cover-up
Three top
securities brokers had offices in the World Trade Center, Cantor
Fitzgerald, Euro Brokers and Garbon Inter Capital. Flight 11 struck just
under the floors where Cantor Fitzgerald was located. Cantor Fitzgerald,
with possible connections to the U.S. Intelligence apparatus, was
America’s biggest securities broker and apparently the main target.
Within minutes, an explosion in the North Tower’s vacant 23rd floor,
right under the offices of the FBI and Garbon Inter Capital on the 25th
floor caused a huge fire from the 22nd through the 25th floors. At the
same time, there was an explosion in the basement of the North Tower.30
A vault in the North Tower basement held less than $1 billion in gold,
much of which was reportedly moved before 9/11. However, the government
had hundreds of billions of dollars of securities which were summarily
destroyed. The Federal Reserve, untouched by the crisis at its downtown
offices (as they had everything backed up to a remote location), assumed
emergency powers that afternoon. The $240 billion in securities were
electronically cleared.31 Then, at 9:03, Flight 175 slammed into the
78th floor of the South Tower just below the 84th floor where Euro
Brokers were located.32 Brian Clark, the manager at Euro Brokers, heard
numerous explosions, apparently unrelated to what he referred to as the
oxygen-starved fire caused by the plane crash.
The September 11
attacks related to the financial improprieties during the preceding ten
years which spurred at least nine federal investigations which were
initiated in 1997-1998, about the same time that Osama bin Laden, after
twenty years as a CIA asset, announced a fatwa against the U.S. The
records of many of those investigations were held in the Buildings Six
and Seven and on the 23rd floor of the North Tower. Those investigations
were sure to reveal the black Eagle Trust shenanigans.33 Building Seven,
not hit by a plane, collapsed at 5:20:33 p.m. but was vacated as early
as 9:00 when evacuees claimed to see dead bodies and sporadic fires
within the building.
By 2008 and even earlier the covert
securities were worth trillions. The securities used to decimate the
Soviets and end the Cold War were stored in certain broker’s vaults in
the World Trade Center where they were destroyed on September 11, 2001.
They would have come due for settlement and clearing on September 12,
2001.34 The federal agency investigating these bonds, the Office of
Naval Intelligence was in the section of the Pentagon that was destroyed
on September 11. Renovations at the Pentagon were due to be completed on
September 16, 2001. However, the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI), the
entity that often monitors war games, was hurriedly moved. If they were
monitoring the simultaneous war games that morning, they would have
realized that the games were used as a distraction from the actual
assault. Whatever hit the pentagon struck the Navy Command Center and
the offices of the Chief of Naval Operations Intelligence Plot
(CNO-IP).35 There were 125 fatalities in the Pentagon; thirty-one
percent of them were people who worked in the Naval Command Center, the
location of the Office of Naval Intelligence. Thirty-nine of the forty
people who worked in the Office of Naval Intelligence died.36
On
September 10, 2001 Rumsfeld announced that the Pentagon couldn’t account
for $2.3 trillion, “We are, as they say, tangled in our anchor chain.
Our financial systems are decades old. According to some estimates, we
cannot track $2.3 trillion in transactions. We cannot share information
from floor to floor in this building because it's stored on dozens of
technological systems that are inaccessible or incompatible.”37 It was
forgotten the following morning. Accountants, bookkeepers and budget
analysts who were in the section of the Pentagon being renovated met
their unexpected deaths. The destruction of accounting facts and figures
will prevent discovery of where that money went. I am quite certain
someone knows where it is. Certainly this is not merely gross
incompetence but private seizure of public funds.38 At the time Rabbi
Dov Zakheim was chief-financial officer for the Department of Defense.39
In 1993, Zakheim worked for SPS International, part of System Planning
Corporation, a defense contractor. His firm’s subsidiary, Tridata
Corporation directed the investigation of the first “terrorist” attack
on the World Trade Center in 1993.40
Certain National Security
officials who had participated in the Cold War victory in 1991 thus
comprised the collateral damage of the Cold War. They, along with
hundreds of innocent people were in the World Trade Center towers and
the Pentagon. Their deaths were presumably required to conceal the
existence of the Black Eagle Trust, along with the numerous illegal
activities it had funded for over 50 years. This massive destruction,
and the lost lives, constitutes a massive cover-up and continued
lawlessness by the brotherhood of death, Skull and Bones, and their
accomplices, the Enterprise.41 The Enterprise was established in the
1980s as a covert fascist Cold Warriors faction working with other
groups like Halliburton’s private security forces and the Moonies.
Citibank is connected to the Enterprise, along with all the CIA front
banks, Nugen Hand and BCCI.
Double
Dipping
Alvin B. “Buzzy” Krongard was elected Chief
Executive Officer of Alexander Brown and Sons in 1991 and Chairman of
the Board in 1994. Bankers Trust purchased Alexander Brown and Sons in
1997 to form BT Alex Brown. Krongard relinquished his investments in
Alex Brown to Banker’s Trust as part of the merger. He became Vice
Chairman of Banker’s Trust where he personally interacted with wealthy
clients who were intimately linked to drug money laundering. After a
year of possible networking, Krongard joined (or as Michael Ruppert
suggests, rejoined) the CIA in 1998 where his friend, Director George
Tenet, concentrated his skills on private banking ventures within the
elite moneyed community. Senate investigations verify that private
banking firms frequently engage in money laundering from illicit drugs
and corporate crime operations.42 On January 28, 2000 the Reginald Howe
and GATA Lawsuit was filed which accused certain U.S. bullion banks of
illegally dumping U.S. Treasury gold on the market. The lawsuit named
Deutsche bank Alex Brown, the U.S. Treasury, Alan Greenspan, the Federal
Reserve, and Citibank, Chase, as defendants. Gerald Corrigan was accused
of having private knowledge of the scheme.43 Krongard became the
Executive Director of the CIA, essentially the Chief Operating Officer,
and the number three man on March 16, 2001. Krongard, while at the CIA,
arranged for Blackwater’s Erik Prince to get his first contract with the
U.S. government, and later joined its board.
Richard Wagner, a
data retrieval expert, estimated that more than $100 million in illegal
transactions appeared to have rushed through the WTC computers before
and during the disaster on September 11, 2001. A Deutsche Bank employee
verified that approximately five minutes before the first plane hit the
tower that the Deutsche Bank computer system in their WTC office was
seized by an outside, unknown entity. Every single file was swiftly
uploaded to an unidentified locality. This employee escaped from the
building, but lost many of his friends. He knew, from his position in
the company, that Alex Brown, the Deutsche Bank subsidiary participated
in insider trading. Senator Carl Levin claimed that Alex Brown was just
one of twenty prominent U.S. banks associated with money laundering.44
Andreas von Bülow, a Social Democratic Party member of the German
parliament (1969-1994), was on the parliamentary committee on
intelligence services, a group that has access to classified
information. Von Bülow was also a member of the Schalck-Golodkowski
investigation committee which investigates white-collar crime. He has
estimated that inside trader profits surrounding 9/11 totaled
approximately $15 billion. Von Bülow told The Daily Telegraph “If what I
say is right, the whole US government should end up behind bars.”
Further, he said, “They have hidden behind a veil of secrecy and
destroyed the evidence…they invented the story of 19 Muslims working
within Osama bin Laden’s al Qaeda in order to hide the truth of their
own covert operation.” He also said, “I’m convinced that the US
apparatus must have played a role and my theory is backed up by the
[Washington] government’s refusal to present any proof whatsoever of
what happened.”45
On September 26, CBS reported that the amount
was more than $100 million and that seven countries were investigating
the irregular trades. Two newspapers, Reuters and the New York Times,
and other mainstream media reported that the CIA regularly monitors
extraordinary trades and economic irregularities to ascertain possible
criminal activities or financial assaults. In fact, the CIA uses
specialized software, PROMIS, to scrutinize trades.46
Numerous
researchers believe, with justification, that the transactions in the
financial markets are indicative of foreknowledge of the events of 9/11,
the attacks on the twin towers and the pentagon. One of the trades, for
$2.5 million, a pittance compared to the total, went unclaimed. Alex
Brown, once managed by Krongard, was the firm that placed the put
options on United Airlines stock. President Bush awarded Krongard by
appointing him as CIA Executive Director in 2004.47
Between
September 6 and 7, 2001, the Chicago Board Options Exchange received
purchases of 4,744 put options on United Airlines and only 396 call
options. If 4,000 of those options were purchased by people with
foreknowledge, they would have accrued about $5 million. On September
10, the Chicago exchange received 4,516 put options on American Airlines
compared to 748 calls. The implications are that some insiders might
profit by about $4 million. These two incidents were wholly irregular
and at least six times higher than normal.48
Morgan Stanley Dean
Witter & Company, who occupied floors 43-46, 56, 59-74 of the World
Trade Center, Tower 2, saw 2,157 of its October $45 put options bought
in the three trading days before Black Tuesday. This compares to an
average of 27 contracts per day before September 6. Morgan Stanley’s
share price fell from $48.90 to $42.50 in the aftermath of the attacks.
Assuming that 2,000 of these options contracts were bought based upon
knowledge of the approaching attacks, their purchasers could have
profited by at least $1.2 million. The U.S. government never again
mentioned the trade irregularities after October 12, 2001.49
Catastrophic events serve two purposes for the top criminal element in
society – the perpetrators seize resources while their legislative
accomplices impose burdensome restrictions on the citizens to make them
more submissive and silent.

this day as International Holocaust Remembrance Day (IHRD), an annual
day of commemoration to honor the victims of the Nazi era. Every member
nation of the U.N. has an obligation to honor the memory of Holocaust
victims and develop educational programs as part of an international
resolve to help prevent future acts of genocide. The U.N. resolution
that created IHRD rejects denial of the Holocaust, and condemns
discrimination and violence based on religion or ethnicity.

Thanksgiving is a day of mourning for Native
Americans
The great Indian chief's hands were cut off and sent
to Boston and his head went to Plymouth, where it was set upon a pole on
the real first "day of public Thanksgiving for the beginning of revenge
upon the enemy."
The true story
of "Thanksgiving" is what whites did not want Mr. James to tell.

For the Indians Thanksgiving is a Day of Mourning
Happy??? Thanksgiving The Pilgrims of Plymouth, The
Original Scalpers Contrary to
popular mythology the Pilgrims were no friends to the local Indians.
They were engaged in a ruthless war of extermination against their
hosts, even as they falsely posed as friends. Just days before the
alleged Thanksgiving love-fest, a company of Pilgrims led by Myles
Standish actively sought to chop off the head of a local chief. They
deliberately caused a rivalry between two friendly Indians, pitting one
against the other in an attempt to obtain "better intelligence and make
them both more diligent." An 11-foot-high wall was erected around the
entire settlement for the purpose of keeping the Indians out. Any Indian
who came within the vicinity of the Pilgrim settlement was subject to
robbery, enslavement, or even murder. The Pilgrims further advertised
their evil intentions and white racial hostility, when they mounted five
cannons on a hill around their settlement, constructed a platform for
artillery, and then organized their soldiers into four companies-all in
preparation for the military destruction of their friends the Indians.
Pilgrim Myles Standish eventually got his bloody prize. He went to the
Indians, pretended to be a trader, then beheaded an Indian man named
Wituwamat. He brought the head to Plymouth, where it was displayed on a
wooden spike for many years, according to Gary B. Nash, "as a symbol of
white power." Standish had the Indian man's young brother hanged from
the rafters for good measure. From that time on, the whites were known
to the Indians of Massachusetts by the name
"Wotowquenange," which in their
tongue meant cutthroats and stabbers.
