Jan, The falsehoods spread by Romney and Ryan at the Republican National Convention was out of control. When Romney or Ryan would attack Obama I'd write it down and research it later through a Non Partisan site like the Congressional Budget Office or Politifact and 8 out of 10 of their attacks on Obama were either totally false or half truths. When does the truth matter with Romney and Ryan ? Romney and Ryan keep spending hundreds of millions in false advertising because money is no object to them. They figure maybe enough people will buy their lies to get the keys to the Whitehouse. Response to Re: Gimmick: Bin Laden's death: In Response to Re: Gimmick: Bin Laden's death : Who does it serve to make up stories and having the republican candidates repeating lies.. It's getting pretty darn sickening that's what ...our country was never about making up stuff.... What happened the republicans----I want the good ol--republicans back again. .. But the current movement of the GOP is just like the Nazi party in the 1930's with the global Capitalist Elite rising in power by peaceful means by getting the support of the less economically-or financially well off by lying and making up stories. These crown princes of capital I would say have sociopathic minds because these wealthy billionaires go to so much trouble to promote policies that lead to exploitation , inequality and despair. These individuals seem oddly switched off from the suffering they are clearly causing. Surely only pernicious people would want to control the ideology of the world's mainstream press, and undermine natural political discourse. Public opinion and democratic institutions are a threat when you want to own the world. There are others pulling the strings but th e billionaire Koch brothers represent the dark side of corporate America. Koch Industries' units have stolen oil from federal lands, rigged prices with competitors, paid bribes to win contracts in six countries, sold oil equipment to Iran despite a U.S. ban, been charged with releasing tons of cancer-causing benzene into the atmosphere and have had five criminal convictions in the U.S. and Canada AND THEY FINANCE THE TEAPARTY..... ding ding ding

Pentagon has no photo to prove what those high ranking officials have seen in situation room. I have a picture they must have seen if they were really watching the "Operation Geronimo".

Bin Laden denied involvement in 911 in the interview. US mainstream media censored this news.
The Osama bin Laden Myth
Paul Craig Roberts November 26, 2012|
The interview below with Osama bin Laden was conducted by the Karachi, Pakistan, daily newspaper, Ummat and published on September 28, 2001, 17 days after the alleged, but unsubstantiated, al Qaeda attack of September 11, 2001, on the World Trade Center twin towers and Pentagon. The interview was sensational. The alleged “mastermind” of 9/11 said that he and al Qaeda had nothing to do with the 9/11 attack. The British Broadcasting Corporation’s World Monitoring Service had the interview translated into English and made public on September 29, 2001.
Osama bin Laden’s sensational denial was not reported by the US print and TV media. It was not investigated by the executive branch. No one in the US Congress called attention to bin Laden’s refusal of responsibility for the greatest humiliation ever inflicted on a superpower.
To check my memory of the lack of coverage, I googled “Osama bin Laden’s interview denying responsibility for 9/11.” Some Internet sites reproduced the interview, but the only mainstream news source that I found was a 1 minute YouTube video from CNN in which the anchor, after quoting an al Jazeera report of bin Laden’s denial, concludes that “we can all weigh that in the scale of credibility and come to our own conclusions.” In other words, bin Laden had already been demonized, and his denial was not credible.
The sensational news was unfit for US citizens and was withheld from them by the american “free press,” a press free to lie for the government but not to tell the truth.

Osama bin Laden corpse photo is fake
Image of bloodied man picked up by British newspapers has been circulating online for two years
guardian.co.uk, Monday 2 May 2011
An image purporting to show Osama bin Laden's bloody corpse, right, is a composite of two separate images, left and centre. Photograph: twitpic
An image apparently showing a dead Osama bin Laden broadcast on Pakistani television and picked up by British newspaper websites is a fake. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/may/02/osama-bin-laden-photo-fake |

An interview conducted between Osama Bin Laden and Ummat newspaper , Karachi on Sep.28 2001 (This inteview has not seen the light of day in the Western press, nor will it ever see the light of day, because it is extremely damaging to plans West has for the Islamic world)
Ummat (in Urdu), Karachi, 28 September 2001, pp. 1 and 7. http://ummatpublication.com/2012/11/25/
Ummat’s introduction
Kabul: Prominent Arab mojahed holy warrior Usamah Bin-Ladin has said that he or his al-Qa’idah group has nothing to do with the 11 September suicidal attacks in Washington and New York. He said the US government should find the attackers within the country. In an exclusive interview with daily “Ummat”, he said these attacks could be the act of those who are part of the American system and are rebelling against it and working for some other system. Or, Usamah said, this could be the act of those who want to make the current century a century of conflict between Islam and Christianity. Or, the American Jews, who are opposed to President Bush ever since the Florida elections, might be the masterminds of this act. There is also a great possibility of the involvement of US intelligence agencies, which need billions of dollars worth of funds every year. He said there is a government within the government in the United States.
The secret agencies, he said, should be asked as to who are behind the attacks. Usamah said support for attack on Afghanistan was a matter of need for some Muslim countries and compulsion for others. However, he said, he was thankful to the courageous people of Pakistan who erected a bulwark before the wrong forces. He added that the Islamic world was attaching great expectations with Pakistan and, in time of need, “we will protect this bulwark by sacrificing of lives”.
Following is the interview in full detail:

In Response to Re: Gimmick: Bin Laden's death: US Government Contractor Claims “Al-Qaeda” Has Confirmed Bin Laden Fairytale SITE organization was behind release of fake “Al-Qaeda” tapes released at politically opportune times stretching back years Wednesday, Aug 17, 2011 05:30 AM PDT SITE’s claim that “Al-Qaeda” has confirmed the official White House version of events concerning the death of Bin Laden, thereby lending presumed credence to a narrative that has quickly attracted derision and suspicion even amongst mainstream journalists, is about as credible as if Barney the Purple Dinosaur had made a statement assuring us that Osama was killed on Sunday evening. SITE is a US military-industrial complex front and has been caught red-handed releasing fake Al-Qaeda tapes on numerous occasions. The SITE organization is nothing more than a contractor for the U.S. government, receiving some $500,000 a year annually from Uncle Sam, the majority of which is paid for by U.S. taxpayers. The group was founded by Rita Katz, the daughter of an executed Israeli spy. Katz has worked closely with the Department of Justice, Department of the Treasury, and the Department of Homeland Security. SITE’s website content was found to be largely copied from the U.S. State Department. “SITE’s “Terrorism Library, on cursory investigation, looks to be a straight data scrape from the U.S. Department of State’s Patterns of Global Terrorism – 2003, Appendix B,” notes SourceWatch. This organization is nothing more than a dummy group which acts as a conduit for Pentagon propaganda. Everything about SITE indicates that it is nothing more than a trojan horse that is regularly used by the military-industrial complex to release staged Al-Qaeda videotapes as part of the ongoing propaganda offensive to justify the brutal, pointless and manufactured war on terror. http://www.prisonplanet.com/us-government-contractor-claims-al-qaeda-has-confirmed-bin-laden-fairytale.html Posted by katsung47 |
