US Military Raids Within the District of Columbia and Why They Trouble Me....



Serious students of the events of September 11, 2001 are aware of the process by which the memes or elements of that tragic day were carefully introduced, accredited, and developed in the public mind, especially through a series of Hollywood movies.

An example is the final scene of the movie The Fight Club, which shows the collapse of a number of skyscrapers in a manner eerily prophetic of the fate of the New York Twin Towers.

Hollywood is, after all, not far away from Santa Monica, the home of that leading scenario factory known as the Rand Corporation.

Precisely in this field we have this sudden emergence of a new genre of a Hollywood blockbuster - the movie extravaganza devoted to an armed assault on the White House.

The first of these arrived in March of this year under the title of Olympus Has Fallen, directed by Antoine Fuqua and starring Gerard Butler, Ashley Judd, and Morgan Freeman.

Here a large force of North Korean rogue terrorists strafe and storm the White House and take the president prisoner in the situation room, demanding that the US get out of Korea.

The tone is paranoid/serious, with no element of satire or irony.

The accent is on a certain kind of naturalism, including by having the real-life MSNBC commentator Lawrence O’Donnell report the events in a newscast.

Many images portray the blowing up of the entire West Wing of the premises.



From Super Mario Brothers (1993)

On 26th Februrary 1993, Ramsey Yousef's Ryder Truck Bomb (TM) went off in Basement SubLevel 2 of the World Trade Centre.

Due to the pressence of an illegally parked car, Yousef (and his brainless patsy Mohammed Salameh) were unable to park the bomb sufficiently flush to the core columns of the South Tower (which was untenanted at the time) and the building failed to collapse - 6 people died in the sub-basement staffroom, over 1000 people were injured, mostly requiring treatment for smoke inhalation and the 40 m (spherical) hole in the basement inflicted over $1 Bn in property damage.

Yousef joined the hapless fools working out of Sheikh Omar Abdul Rhaman (The Blind Sheikh)'s amateur hour Jersey City Jihadi cell in November or December of 1992 (immediately following George Bush's electoral defeat), and it was his bomb and his design that was used rather than any built by the (now famous) FBI informant, former Egyptian Army Col. Emad Salem - it appears his bombs did not work, and he was building them not to work.

Which is the point at which Ramsey Yousef was summoned from Baluchistan and left immediately following the bombing.

Brainless Patsey Mohammed Salameh was arrested in Newark at the Ryder Rental Office a week later when attempting to reclaim his security deposit on the truck.

Yousef later hooked up with Terry Nichols in Indonesia and taught him how to make bombs that worked in late 1993 - early 1994.

Yousef then went to hide out in a "safe house" owned (or at least paid for) by Usama Bin Laden on the Afghan-Pakistani border, where he was arrested by FBI Special Agent in Charge (and how) John O'Neill in early 1995, weeks prior to the Oklahoma City Bombing (which incorporated a Ryder Truck Bomb, built (possibly) by Terry Nichols according to Ramsey Yousef's specifications.

Ramsey Yousef was never meant to get caught and is an intelligence asset - likely an officer - of the highest calibre. Although who exactly he takes his instruction from is unclear.

When being flown by helicopter to his trial in the Southern District of New York, the Deputy Director of the FBI chaperoning him nodded towards the Twin Towers and remarked to Yousef,

"You see - they're still standing."

Yousef's reply was variously reported prior to September 11th 2001 to have been either:

"They wouldn't be if I had had more money" and/or "Next time we'll bring them both down....




Due in theaters in late June is a second movie with virtually the identical theme, this time called White House Down, from Sony Pictures and Columbia. The director is the German Roland Emmerich, known for Independence Day, Godzilla, and The Patriot. The stars are Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx.

This time, the White House is attacked by a domestic paramilitary group led by Emil Stenz, according to the script by James Vanderbilt of the well-known oligarchical clan.

The attackers also blow up the dome of the US Capitol as a diversion.

So far as is known, Obama has not commented on either of these two motion pictures.

The Kokesh march on Washington: Rifle-toting reactionaries

Are there correlated developments in the real world?

There certainly are:

Over a period of several weeks, the disgruntled Iraq war veteran Adam Kokesh was recently calling for a July 4 anti-Obama march of 10,000 black-clad white reactionaries to violate federal and District of Columbia law by crossing the Potomac from Virginia into the District and thence around the National Mall, passing by most of the executive departments, the Congress, and the White House - all the while armed with loaded rifles.

Until about a year ago, Kokesh was a leading supporter of the Republican austerity fanatic and antigovernment demagogue Ron Paul, but he then broke with Paul and set out on his own course of provocation and adventurism.

In the unlikely event that Kokesh’s march had succeeded, he would have had the equivalent of one rifle division in position to intimidate the Congress and the White House in turn - a clear step towards anarchy.

After being arrested at a pro-marijuana rally in Philadelphia and spending a few days in jail, Kokesh has changed his strategy, and is now calling for marches on July 4 in the 50 state capitals to demand immediate secession and breakup of the federal union.

Loaded rifles would still be de rigeur.

The question of secessionism was answered with thundering finality in the American Civil War of a century and a half ago, an episode which caused this nation more than 700,000 dead.

Since the Confederate surrender at Appomattox in April 1865, anyone attempting to be open this question must be regarded as a dangerous madman.

For our purposes here, it is enough to recall that the Kokesh march is too close for comfort to the two scenario films we have just discussed.

Such then is the immediate background for the Bilderberg 2013 deliberations this weekend.







A crash history course in the origins and practices of the present Psy-War.

Col. Oliver North:

"Counsel, I don't believe that any one who served in Vietnam, who saw what happened as a consequence of our efforts, when in my opinion we won all the battles and then lost the war, could ever be unaffected by that unless they were totally insensitive. And I would also point out that we didn't lose the war in Vietnam, we lost the war right here in this city.

COMMENT BY PROF. PETER DALE SCOTT:

"What North was saying there was that America's real enemies are inside this country. And that would explain why North spent so many years under Bush's auspices preparing contingency plans for rounding up large numbers of dissenters if we ever went into another war.

"Now, you'd have thought that the Committee would have been outraged by North's sort of declaration of war with a large segment of the American people, but instead of their disagreeing with him, most of them actually agreed with him."
