White
House Targets Conspiracy Theorists As Terrorist Recruiters
'Strategy for winning the war on terror' says world
contaminated, corrupted by misinformation

A document cited by President Bush in his
recent speech at the Capital Hilton Hotel on how to 'win the war on terror'
cites conspiracies as one of the wellsprings of terrorism and threatens to
"address" and "diminish" the problems they are causing the
government in fulfilling their agenda.
On Tuesday Bush
referred to the strategy paper as "an unclassified version
of the strategy we've been pursuing since September the 11th, 2001," that
takes into account, "the changing nature of this enemy."
The
document says that terrorism springs from "subcultures of
conspiracy and misinformation,
" and that "terrorists recruit more effectively from populations
whose information about the world is contaminated by falsehoods and corrupted
by conspiracy theories. The distortions keep alive grievances and filter out
facts that would challenge popular prejudices and self-serving
propaganda."
The terminology echoes President Bush's
speech (video below) to the UN General Assembly on November 10th 2001 in which
he stated, "Let us never tolerate outrageous conspiracy theories
concerning the attacks of September the 11th, malicious lies that attempt to
shift the blame away from the terrorists themselves, away from the
guilty."

This is an outright threat to the 9/11
truth movement and is meant to have a chilling effect on freedom of speech.
It is also a callous reminder that the
administration that has been the progenitor of the most heinous and deliberate
campaign to mislead and lie to its own people is so transfixed by its own
hubris that it has the temerity to accuse others of propagating deceptive
information.
This is the same administration that
deliberately included the Niger yellow cake fraud in a state of the union
speech to sell a war - knowing that the information was completely bogus.
How dare they threaten us with the very
defining characteristic of their black legacy and equate us with terrorists?
This is a direct assault on the
alternative media and a continuation of the twilight zone rhetoric that saw
the administration attempt to link its critics with Fascists and Hitler
appeasers. The only fascists that should really concern us are not imaginary 'Blogofascists'
or 'Islamofascists' but the Neo-Fascist slugs that occupy the White House and
their cheerleading sycophants in the mainstream media and congress.
This is by no means the first time
political enemies of the state have been smeared as terrorist sympathizers.
Alex Jones' 2001 documentary film 9/11:
The Road to Tyranny featured footage from a FEMA symposium given
to firefighters and other emergency personnel in Kansas City in which it was
stated that the founding fathers, Christians and
homeschoolers were terrorists and should be treated with the utmost suspicion
and brutality in times of national emergency.
We have highlighted previous training manuals issues by
state and federal government bodies which identify whole swathes of the
population as potential terrorists. A Texas
Department of Public Safety Criminal Law Enforcement pamphlet
gives the public characteristics to identify terrorists that include buying
baby formula, beer, wearing Levi jeans, carrying identifying documents like a
drivers license and traveling with women or children.
A Virginia
training manual used to help state employees recognize terrorists
lists anti-government and property rights activists as terrorists and includes
binoculars, video cameras, pads and notebooks in a compendium of terrorist
tools.
Shortly after 9/11 a Phoenix
FBI manual that was disseminated amongst federal employees at the
end of the Clinton term caused waves on the Internet after it was revealed
that potential terrorists included, "defenders of the US Constitution
against federal government and the UN, " and individuals who "make
numerous references to the US Constitution.
" Lawyers everywhere cowered in fear at being shipped off to Gitmo.
In May we broke
the exclusive of a nationwide FEMA program which is training
Pastors and other religious representatives to become secret police enforcers
who teach their congregations to "obey the government" in
preparation for a declaration of martial law, property and firearm seizures,
and forced relocation.
