|
|
This just breaking here in the States.
Large area of the city apparently cordoned off. According to what I heard on the radio the origin was Pakistan, *hint* *hint*, compliments of the ISI? The pre-trial staged events leading up the the real one.

Port of Seattle terminal evacuated after dogs hit on possible explosive
Quote: |
Authorities set up a half-mile perimeter around a terminal at the Port of Seattle on Wednesday after bomb-sniffing dogs indicated that at least one container recently unloaded from a ship could contain explosives.
Dozens of personnel were evacuated from Terminal 18, on Harbor Island south of downtown Seattle, a port spokesman said. A bomb squad was set to examine the container and determine its contents.
The container was taken off the ship because of questions about a manifest, port spokesman David Schaefer said.
"The bomb-sniffing dogs did what bomb-sniffing dogs do, and it caused us to be worried there might be explosives," Schaefer said.
Coast Guard Petty Officer Mike Zolzer said the container was supposed to contain oily rags, but authorities apparently found items that did not match that description.
Zolzer said he did not know where the ship originated. |

The ISI sure seems busy these days?

ISI and LeT are behind the militant attacks, claim police
Quote: | The Special Cell of the Delhi police on Monday claimed that it had concrete evidence of active collusion between the Pakistan Army, its Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) network and the banned terrorist outfit Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) in carrying out militant attacks in India. This was allegedly revealed by Abu Anas, the Pakistani LeT militant arrested with a conduit, Mohammad Issa, at New Delhi railway station on August 10. |

So we've got false flag ops with claimed ISI (Pakistan) links in New Delhi, India, nuclear explosion drills in Hawaii, the "foiled" UK plane bomb plot, and now the shipping container deal also coming from Pakistan all in the same month. You make sense of this picture. This certainly looks like the confluence of events meant as a pretext for the real deal that Alex Jones has warned of. Pakistan seems to be intimately involved in each scenario except for the drill...hmmm...

Here we see Pakistan involved again, along with India.
http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/holnus/001200608141961.htm
Indian connections tied to London bomb plot
Quote: | Kashmir appeared to be foremost in the minds of the alleged plotters of the unsuccessful bid to blow up the US-bound flights in Britain with liquid explosives, media reports said.
The two brothers reportedly at the centre of the investigation, Rashid and Tayib Rauf, from Birmingham, are both British citizens of Kashmiri (Mirpuri) origin, according to The Independent.
Rashid Rauf is one of the 17 people being held in Pakistan in connection with the alleged plot. He has been linked to Lashkar.
Not much substantial information has emerged from Pakistan but British Kashmiris had direct contact with the militant Islamic groups in Pakistan, and there was nothing secret about it, the paper added.
After last year's Kashmir earthquake, hundreds of British Kashmiris travelled back to their homeland to help in the relief effort. While there they were in daily contact with the militants because in the early stages it was the militants who ran the relief effort.
The Independent claims to have witnessed volunteers from Birmingham working alongside militants from Lashkar-e-Toiba just north of Muzaffarabad in Pakistan occupied Kashmir(PoK), where a mountain had collapsed on top of a village and Lashkar was running a makeshift ferry service to evacuate the wounded.
A recent report in Pakistan's Daily Times reported that it was transfers of funds disguised as donations for Kashmir earthquake relief that first alerted intelligence services to the Pakistani side of the suspected plot.
Britain tipped-off Pakistani intelligence about huge sums of money being transferred from a UK-based charity to the private bank accounts of three individuals in Pakistan, marked "earthquake relief".
According to the Independent those three men are now under arrest in Pakistan, and Rashid Rauf is believed to be one of them.
Reports of Kashmiri involvement in the London plot raises the question of whether any contacts were made at that time.
People of Kashmiri origin mostly from Mirpur, are the single largest group among Pakistani immigrants to Britain.
But Pakistan is not saying much about the arrests. Of at least 17 people arrested, only Rashid Rauf has been named. He has been linked, in different reports, to several militant groups: Lashkar-e Toiba, Lashkar-e Jangvhi, Jaish-e Mohammed and al-Qaida but those groups have been known to cooperate with each other. |

And for the icing on the cake. 9/11 & once again a close relationship with Pakistan and the ISI.
http://www.globalresearch.ca/articles/CHO206A.html
Quote: |
Carefully Planned Intelligence Operation
The 9-11 terrorists did not act on their own volition. The suicide hijackers were instruments in a carefully planned intelligence operation. The evidence confirms that Al Qaeda is supported by Pakistan's military intelligence, the Inter-services Intelligence (ISI). Amply documented, the ISI owes its existence to the CIA:
"With CIA backing and the funnelling of massive amounts of U.S. military aid, the ISI developed [since the early 1980s] into a parallel structure wielding enormous power over all aspects of government....The ISI had a staff composed of military and intelligence officers, bureaucrats, undercover agents and informers estimated at 150,000."8
The ISI actively collaborates with the CIA. It continues to perform the role of a ‘go-between' in numerous intelligence operations on behalf of the CIA. The ISI directly supports and finances a number of terrorist organizations, including Al Qaeda.
The Missing Link
The FBI confirmed in late September, in an interview with ABC News (which went virtually unnoticed) that the 9-11 ring leader, Mohammed Atta, had been financed from unnamed sources in Pakistan:
"As to September 11th, federal authorities have told ABC News they have now tracked more than $100,000 from banks in Pakistan, to two banks in Florida, to accounts held by suspected hijack ring leader, Mohammed Atta. As well . . . "Time Magazine" is reporting that some of that money came in the days just before the attack and can be traced directly to people connected to Osama bin Laden. It's all part of what has been a successful FBI effort so far to close in on the hijacker's high commander, the money men, the planners and the mastermind."9
The FBI had information on the money trail. They knew exactly who was financing the terrorists. Less than two weeks later, the findings of the FBI were confirmed by Agence France Presse (AFP) and the Times of India, quoting an official Indian intelligence report (which had been dispatched to Washington). According to these two reports, the money used to finance the 9-11 attacks had allegedly been "wired to WTC hijacker Mohammed Atta from Pakistan, by Ahmad Umar Sheikh, at the instance of [ISI Chief] General Mahmoud [Ahmad]." 10 According to the AFP (quoting the intelligence source):
"The evidence we have supplied to the U.S. is of a much wider range and depth than just one piece of paper linking a rogue general to some misplaced act of terrorism." 11
Pakistan's Chief Spy Visits Washington
Now, it just so happens that General Mahmoud Ahmad, the alleged "money man" behind 9-11, was in the U.S. when the attacks occurred. He arrived on the 4th of September, one week before 9-11, on what was described as a routine visit of consultations with his U.S. counterparts. According to Pakistani journalist, Amir Mateen (in a prophetic article published on September 10):
"ISI Chief Lt-Gen. Mahmoud's week-long presence in Washington has triggered speculation about the agenda of his mysterious meetings at the Pentagon and National Security Council. Officially, he is on a routine visit in return to CIA Director George Tenet's earlier visit to Islamabad. Official sources confirm that he met Tenet this week. He also held long parleys with unspecified officials at the White House and the Pentagon. But the most important meeting was with Marc Grossman, U.S. Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs. One can safely guess that the discussions must have centred around Afghanistan . . . and Osama bin Laden. What added interest to his visit is the history of such visits. Last time Ziauddin Butt, Mahmoud's predecessor, was here, during Nawaz Sharif's government, the domestic politics turned topsy-turvy within days." 12
Nawaz Sharif was overthrown by General Pervez Musharaf. General Mahmoud Ahmad, who became the head of the ISI, played a key role in the military coup.
Schedule of Pakistan's Chief of Military Intelligence Lt. General Mahmoud Ahmad, Washington, 4-13 September 2001
Summer 2001: ISI Chief Lt. General Mahmoud Ahmad transfers $100,000 to 9-11 Ringleader Mohamed Atta.
4 September: Ahmad arrives in the US on an official visit.
4-9 September: He meets his US counterparts including CIA Head George Tenet.
9 September: Assassination of General Massood, leader of the Northern Alliance. Official statement by Northern Alliance points to involvement of the ISI-Osama-Taliban axis.
11 September: Terrorist Attacks on the WTC and the Pentagon. At the time of the attacks, Lt General Ahmad was at a breakfast meeting at the Capitol with the chairmen of the House and Senate Intelligence Committees Sen Bob Graham and Rep Porter Goss. Also present at the meeting were Sen. John Kyl and the Pakistani ambassador to the U.S., Maleeha Lodhi.
12-13 September: Meetings between Lt. General Ahmad and Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage. Agreement on Pakistan's collaboration negotiated between Ahmad and Armitage. Meeting between General Ahmad and Secretary of State Colin Powell
13 September: Ahmad meets Senator Joseph Biden, Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

Pakistan, Pakistan, Pakistan, whether it's 9/11, the UK plot, the London plot, the shipping containers in Seattle or the recent attacks in India. It looks like the CIA & Mossad have found a new friend?
UK plot....

Brothers Emerge as Key Suspects in U.K. Terror Plot
Quote: | The investigation into a plot to blow up jetliners over the Atlantic zeroed in Saturday on brothers arrested in Pakistan and Britain, one named as a key Al Qaeda suspect who left the family's home in England years ago and the other described as gentle and polite. |
London plot....

Pakistan interrogates London terror suspect
Quote: | Pakistan Tuesday said it had not found any links between Rashid Rauf, a key suspect arrested in connection with the abortive London terror plot, and the Pakistan-based outlawed militant organisations.
'We have not yet been able to find any links between Rauf, a British national, and the Pakistan-based proscribed (militant) organisations,' foreign ministry spokeswoman Tasneem Aslam told a press briefing in Islamabad.
Pakistani officials had last week confirmed Rauf's arrest in Pakistan in connection with the terror plot, which triggered several arrests in Britain.
While there has not been any word about where Rauf was arrested, officials claimed that he had links with the Afghanistan-based Al Qaeda terrorist network. |

|
|
Quote: | "The bomb-sniffing dogs did what bomb-sniffing dogs do, and it caused us to be worried there might be explosives," Schaefer said |
I remember when a "fruit sniffing dog" came bounding up to my handbag whilst I was waiting for my suitcase to come off the conveyor belt after my flight when I was last in America, along with a police woman...I didn't know what the dog had "hit upon" at the time, just that it was very proud of itself and just started wagging it's tail madly whilst the police woman said "Good girl, well done!" I was mildly terrified that someone had planted some dugs on me or something! But the police woman said "Have you had any fruit in your handbag recently?"!!! I didn't know this was now an offence, but I confessed to having kept an apple hostige in my bag for several days before setting off for America - it had been discarded, uneaten the evening before I left England!
"She always knows, good girl!" was the response and I was free to go - now in our present day climate, had I been and looked "Muslim" would I now be locked up in Guantanamo Bay, charged with being a "Fruit Terrorist"?!
I didn't know you lived in the U.S.A "Me"!!
By the way I heard something on the news on the radio about a woman "going mad" with a screwdriver (and possibly an over ripe peach!) on an American internal flight whilst I was at the hairdressers today - I've not had chance to watch the news since - is this common knowledge now I wonder? _________________ Romans 12:2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Yeah, that story has been floating around as well. Thanks for reminding me of that one.
Once again, India & Pakistan at odds.

Former British Ambassador Says Terror Alert Is "Propaganda"
Indians say group linked to liquid bombers controlled by Pakistan's ISI
Quote: | Former British Ambassador to Uzbekistan Craig Murray says the alleged transatlantic liquid bomb plot is staged-managed propaganda on behalf of Bush and Blair - who yearn for a "new 9/11" to absolve them of domestic political trouble.
Murray previously blew the whistle on how the British government was using evidence obtained from torture in Uzbekistan - inflicted on its population by the US-funded regime of Islam Karimov - the dictator who likes to boil people alive.
Murray questions the intent and capability of the alleged terrorists to carry out the attack and offers the likelihood that evidence of the plot was obtained through torture in Pakistan. |

Plane scare 'not terror threat'
Quote: | A Washington-bound United Airlines flight from London made an emergency landing in Boston on Wednesday after a woman suffering from claustrophobia became unruly, but there was no apparent terrorist threat, police and security officials said. |
Quote: |
He declined to comment on a media report attributed to him that the woman had Vaseline, a screwdriver, matches and a note on the Islamic militant group al-Qaeda. The FBI's Day said none of those items showed up in searches of her belongings. |

I feel that India may possibly be being set up to take the fall for some upcoming terror event? Pakistan in my opinion is in cahoots with the CIA and Mossad with its ISI unit. Whenever there is a need for a new scare, Pakistan is right there to provide it to us. They're doing the CIA's bidding I believe with this latest container deal.
It's my understanding that Pakistan is now considered one of our allies on the war on terror. Pakistan has been quarreling over an area of land with India, just as Israel w/ Palestine. In both cases there have been reports of falsified terror. As I already posted, reports are aiming to connect people from India to the London bombing.
Palestine has previously accused Israel of staging attacks and India is now accusing Pakistan of staging attacks. They’re just doing what the US and UK do when feuding with a country such as Iraq.
My personal conclusion:
We've got four countries [USA, Pakistan, Israel & UK], all of which are closely tied to 9/11 behind the scenes, all of which are feuding over foreign lands, all of which have been accused of staging events to use as justifications for their aggression. I believe these four countries are playing for the same team and are using the same false flag tactics to achieve their goals.
I'd also really love to know how it was 'accidentally' reported that the one woman had a screwdriver and a letter from Al Qaeda? I mean, c'mon! |

Jane, I'm sorry to hear about your poor experiences of getting sniffed out by dogs over fruit in the US. I don't fly much, haven flown in years in fact so I don't know much about the safety routines. I've never heard of such a thing. |

False flags and false alarms go hand in hand. All that people ever remember is that sensational news headline. "wild woman with screwdriver and terrorist letter on plane", "possible explosives on shipping container", none of it turned out to be proof positive.

UPDATE 6-Seattle port terminal evacuated, no bomb found
Quote: | U.S. Customs officials in Seattle evacuated one of North America's largest ship container terminals on Wednesday after two cargo containers from Pakistan alarmed bomb-sniffing dogs.
Authorities found no explosives or chemical or biological agents in containers, one filled with clothes and the other with large bundles of used or recycled textiles. |
Quote: | The port evacuation follows a series of major security scares in the last week since British authorities said they had foiled a plot to blow up planes from London to the United States.
Earlier on Wednesday, a woman panicking from claustrophobia caused a Washington-bound flight from London to make an emergency landing in Boston and sparked a security alert.
The two containers raised suspicion when a screening using gamma ray technology about the contents' density did not match the items listed on a ship's manifest. |

Interesting, was this poor mentally unstable woman being manipulated by Pakistani intelligence? Was she trying to expose her handlers?
Reminiscent of Lee Harvey Oswald saying, “I’m just a pasty…I’m just a patsy”?

More reminiscent, in my opinion, of Rose Cheramie, thrown out of a car en route to Dallas and mumbling about "Italians", prior to JFK's assassination. Seems she'd been fed info to implicate the Mafia.
Anyway, that aside, did anyone see the BBC's article about United 923 on their website today? It contains the hilarious line:
"Since 11 September 2001, it is standard procedure to send fighter jets to intercept commercial flights that may have become terrorist threats." (my italics)
Here's the link:
