Posted: Thu Jul 27, 2006 12:25 pm Post subject: The wire transfer of $100,000 to atta. |
|
|
How do the critics here explain how the FBI (and subsequently several mainstream newspapers), reported that Mohammed Atta had been given $100,000 at the command of General Mahmoud Ahmed?
For those not familar with this. Mahmoud Ahmed worked for the Pakistani intelligence services (ISI) at the time. And was meeting with whitehouse officials on the morning of 9/11.
Was this report completely fabricated? if so why did he resign? _________________ "During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act" |

And why was he, on the morning of 911, having bacon and eggs with Porter Goss?

Also, where does the little matter of $100,000 transfer to "ringleader" Atta leave this statement made by the USA's top Fed Cop - FBI Director Robert Mueller to the Commonwealth Club of California, San Francisco, CA on April 19, 2002.
" and they made sure that all the money sent to them to fund their attacks was wired in small amounts to avoid detection. " ?

He was likely asking for his $100,000 bucks back seeing as how the planes were drones and didn't need a guy like Atta anyway!!
You CTers can't even agree amongst yourselves....

That is seriously your answer to the issue of the $100,000 wire transfer??? - You can't be serious!

No! - We don't all agree amoungst ourselves, that would be creepy. We are not forced to believe anything, and this website in particular allows the free flow of information and ideas free from dogma!
Now, how about you go and try to back up some of your laughable statements in the Operation Northwoods thread - I'm dying to see your attempts at wriggling out of that one. _________________ - www.takectrl.org - |

Hi Jay Ref
Ha Ha that's funny - nice one, amidst the gloom you have brought a smile to my face. Thank you.
I think we do all agree on at least one thing though Jay Ref.
The official story of 9/11 is full of holes, inconsistencies, lies, malfesiance, corruption and impossibilities.
That is why we are asking questions and trying to extend our knowledge and understanding of those terrible events.
Some constructive criticism from you would be most welcome.
Cheers. |

My concern with the story is that it eventually sources back to the Times of India, which may not be impartial when it comes to matters regarding Pakistan. Recall that the $100,000 wire was not mentioned in the 9-11 report. And I don't think he was meeting with White House Officials on 9-11; IIRC it was a breakfast with then Congressman Porter Goss and a couple other Congressmen/Senators. |

my mistake on the specifics there about the nature of the meeting. thanks for correcting me
still doesn't change the fact that this is pretty serious evidence. why did ahmed 'resign' if there is nothing to the allegation? _________________ "During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act" |

It's a pretty serious allegation; however, I have seen no evidence other than the one story. People quit/are fired for many different reasons. It could be the reason you suspect. |

it seems an unusual coincidence that a newspaper would fabricate such a random story, and then the person in question would leave his position at the ISI. _________________ "During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act" |

Lets also not forget that Richard Armitage is a PNAC signatory. On 9/11 he was also Acting Secretary of State as Clin Poweel was on a visit to South America.
