Interesting that Junger and Hitchens (both Vanity Fair) were both journalistically situated around Massoud shortly before 9/11. Kevin published the letter on his site. <br /><br />Can we get more on the relationship of Hitchens to the Northern Alliance? Who else hired Hitchens, the champion and interpreter of international law in his book on Kissinger? The severity of the attack on Josh's article might suggest an attempt to protect something more than immediately meets the eye. I notice Hitchens mentioning in a Vanity Fair piece that India was a big supporter of Northern Alliance. Is Hitchens also hired by the Indian government?<br /><br />Henshall to Blakeney<br /><br />"Hitchens also admitted on Newsnight (BBC live politics programme) shortly after 911 that he had been the press officer for the Northern Alliance in the months before 9/11.

It ia a clear exculpation of Muslims with boxcutters and a clear implication of Mossad/CIA/MI5 deception to do war. <br /><br />A Zionist bureaucrat in DOJ controlled the crime scene. FEMA was called to the crime scene a day early to be ready to control forensics. A Zionist judge controlled the legal aftermath. A Zionist was the NY mayor's security expert, WTC security prior to the attacks was controlled by Zionists, and a Zionist clean-up company controlled the clean up and dispoesed of the evidence. A Zionist who had been comptroller at the Pentagon prior to the discovery of missing trillions of dollars and aircraft was also among the Zionists at PNAC who wrote Rebuilding America's Military and expecting that only a Pearl Harbor-like event could move the plan into action. A Zionist was leading the Port Authority who permitted another Zionist to lease the WTC for $125 million so he could add terrorist attack to the insurance policy in July of 2001 so that he could win over $7 billion in insurance claims for damages. This Zionist was a close friend of Bibi Netanyahu who had commissioned the pioneer work, Clean Break, that foreshadowed the PNAC paper written by many of the same people...all Zionist NeoCons. The WTC floor hit by the first "plane" was owned by a bank that had just been taken over by a Zionist firm and the computer room "remodeled." <br /><br />And so it goes...deeper and deeper into "the rabbit hole" most people are afraid to investigate. Other people take advantage of those blinders.whiteaglesoaringhttp://www.real-debt-elimination.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2253633813431459343.post-28992834273864398322010-08-26T12:47:34.075-07:002010-08-26T12:47:34.075-07:00"I'm talking about this comment the same ..."<i>I'm talking about this comment the same person just posted on another blog:<br /><br />"Anyone who believes that the WTC were demolished with explosive devices by our government are a bunch of dumb, rediculous minded people who have nothing better to do with there lives except smoke pot all day in the college dorm,come up with outrageously rediculous conspiracy theories and bother politicians who have much more important issues to take care of.

Can America's Islamophobic version of Kristallnacht be far away? In my view the whole phenomena emerges quite coherently from the spin given to the events of 9/11 within hours of the attacks. The agenda has been from day one to keep the permanent US war economy alive through resort to imperialist divide-and-conquer extending to the stimulation of religious wars, now even within North America itself. Fox and The New York Times, BBC and CBC and Pacifica, David Frum and Christopher Hitchens and now Sebastian Junger have all done their part. So too have Chomsky and Goodman and Corn and Albert etc. in their own diversionary fashions. <br /><br />It is tragic that so many so-called progressives condemn the hugely corrosive outcomes of the Global War on Terror while resisting a systemic reckoning with the important findings of the citizens' inquiry dealing in civil society with the lies and crimes of 9/11. We need to get to the roots of this crisis rather than confining ourselves to its outgrowths and manifestations. We need to renew the Enlightenment's appeal to reason, rationality and evidence rather than to permit further descent into an Inquisitorial orgy of governance through Cheneyesque superstition, torture and ruling class omnipotence.<br /><br />Tony HallAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2253633813431459343.post-69552722614316781472010-08-23T17:36:22.709-07:002010-08-23T17:36:22.709-07:00Ian Henshall writes to Joshua Blakeney:

He was at Oxford at the same time as me and even then had a drink problem. He was regarded as a leader of the student revolution and I recall him being brought into the JCR to give a drunken but stirring speech. At the time I was pretty right wing, having been programmed by the media and was only just coming to terms with the fact that Vietnam was a war of aggression and empire, and was regarded as something of an enemy by the revolutionary crowd, almost all of whom eventually sold out while I moved in the opposite direction. I suppose the general reason for the mass sellout was, apart from self interest, the desire to be on the winning side and so Gorbachev's disastrous failure to reform the Soviet Union and the subsequent counter-revolution was the decisive factor in so many of this generation turning into neocons (but this only applies to the leaders, others I know are totally aware that the 9/11 wars are imperial wars of aggression).<br /><br />However there could be a conspiracy here too: Hitchen's brother Peter presented himself as a revolutionary but was decisively exposed by the Socialist Workers' Party (then known as IS) as a police agent. PH immediately relaunched himself as a hard line conservative (now as a genuine conservative he has morphed almost into an anti-imperialist). I always wondered why people were not more suspicious of his brother in the light of this.<br /><br />Hitchens also admitted on Newsnight (BBC live politics programme) shortly after 911 that he had been the press officer for the Northern Alliance in the months before 9/11. I doubt if they will have a transcript available though. He authored an article in the Guardian the day after 9/11 (or was it two days?) saying how fortunate it was that the Towers had collapsed vertically rather than horizontally and I now wonder if this was part of the plot: preparing for a limited hangout in case they were forced to admit to a controlled demolition...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
