NSA Spying: Is Feinstein Right? Will the Leaks STRENGTHEN the NSA Program? Podcast of June 16, 2013 Show

See the photo above? That’s Obama with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Apple’s Steve Jobs, the president of Stanford University & other powerful people from Silicon Valley in 2011. What do you think they’re toasting? The possibilities are endless!

In conjunction with the podcasts below you might want to notice some of my previous posts of NSA whistleblowers telling more than the latest one, Edward Snowden, and a long time ago, no less.

You might also want to check out these articles that hint Edward Snowden’s “news” wasn’t so new after all, and that the NSA programs were going to be exposed soon enough anyway:

The Clinton-Bush-Obama Continuum, the FBI & the 1993 World Trade Center Bombing

The majority of the biggest terrorist busts in recent years have been conceived of and executed by FBI operatives. (See The New York Times article, Terror Plots, Hatched by the FBI.)

An FBI operative and star witness for the state named Emad Salem recorded his conversations with handlers while he was assigned to work with terrorists planning to bomb the World Trade Center in 1993. Apparently, Salem participated in building the bomb and asked for dummy explosives only to be turned down by the FBI. He expected the bomb would be stopped before going off. It wasn’t. 6 died, others were injured and $500 million of damage was wrought. One of the architects of the towers claimed at the time that if the van with explosives had been placed closer to the poured concrete foundation of the building, both buildings might have come down.

Was this a botched FBI sting operation? A false flag? We will probably never know more than we know now, but we do know that such events spur new calls for the surveillance state whether Democrats or Republicans are in charge.

The World Trade Center Bombing in 1993 happened under the watch of Bill Clinton, a Democrat, and it was followed up in 1995 by a bill introduced by then-Senator Joe Biden, another Democrat, called the Omnibus Counterterrorism Act of 1995, which he has claimed repeatedly was the blueprint for the USAPATRIOT Act. Despite the innocent refrain repeated by media and politicians alike that the USA PATRIOT Act was drawn up in the heat of the moment after 9/11, it was not, nor was it a purely Republican conception.

Obama’s approach to war and surveillance is no different from that of the Republicans and Democrats who preceded him. Just another reminder: It’s not left vs. right, it’s us vs. them.

Bush’s Total Information Awareness Looks A Lot Like Obama’s PRISM

It has been clear for some time that Obama and Holder have the surveillance state as their number one priority. In addition to direct action to expand the surveillance state through Holder’s secret NCTC policy, every current policy has data collection elements including the executive orders on gun control, immigration’s eVerify, Obamacare’s database, CISPA, the Utah datacenter and beyond. Recently, Holder was outed for using the DOJ to spy on the State Department through FOX’s State correspondent James Rosen and now the full scale of the government’s surveillance on us individuals is revealed as news broke that the NSA has gathered and maintained a call database for over a decade and has expanded it to include credit card data, Internet searches, and above all, social media.

When will enough be enough? Let’s talk about it Sunday 1-3PM on WSB.

Question: How Many Islamic Terrorists Marry into Skull & Bones Families?

Answer: One. Or none, if you don’t think Tamerlan Tsarnaev was a jihadist and think instead that he was a patsy as his dead friend Ibragim Todashev did.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the dead Boston Marathon Bombing “Suspect #1,” was married to Katherine Russell Tsarnaev, daughter of Yale graduate, Dr. Warren King Russell II. Knowing of Tamerlan Tsarnaev’s CIA connections and that Yale has deep links to the CIA, I wondered if Katherine’s family had any CIA connections itself. I thought perhaps Katherine and Tamerlan’s meeting was not as random as the nightclub story that is part of the official narrative. (How many radical Islamists pick up their future wives at nightclubs?)

Ends up, Katherine’s grandfather, Richard Warren Russell, was not only a Yale graduate as her father was, but was a member of Skull & Bones, the paradoxically well-known secret society. I happen to be reading a book I found through my research into tax exempt foundations following the recent IRS scandal, called America’s Secret Establishment: An Introduction to the Order of Skull & Bones, by Antony Sutton, a Stanford Hoover Institution fellow. In that book, Richard Warren Russell is listed as one of the 15 annual Skull & Bones initiates for the year 1951. In addition, Richard Warren Russell’s obituary lists him as being a member of counter-intelligence for the US Army after graduating from Yale, which is not unlikely given that the connections between Yale and the intelligence community are particularly strong within Skull & Bones. (The Robert DeNiro movie The Good Shepherd highlights these connections.) Continue reading »

Ibragim Todashev and Other Fishy Tales

Ibragim Todashev
On May 22, 2013, the FBI interrogated Ibragim Todashev then shot him six times in the body and one time in the head.  The Chechen was being interviewed because of his acquaintanceship with dead Boston bombing suspect, Tamerlan Tsarnaev.

As with the other stories surrounding the Boston Marathon Bombing investigation, the story keeps changing. Ibragim Todashev was first reported to have lunged at an FBI agent, then reported to have gone at him with a knife, now is reported as having attacked unarmed. Original reports also had Todashev interviewed in relation to any knowledge he might have of the Boston Marathon Bombings given his acquaintance with Tamerlan Tsarnaev, then in relation to a drug slaying of three in Boston on September 11, 2011, and has finally morphed into the claim by FBI that Todashev had confessed to having committed the triple homicide with Tamerlan Tsarnaev when he lunged at the agent while poised to sign the confession.

Friends and family of Todashev view all elements of this tale as totally untrue, claiming that Todashev was cooperating fully with the FBI, that the FBI was speaking with him solely in connection with the Boston Bombing and that Todashev postponed a long-planned trip to Russia in an effort to fully comply with the FBI’s wishes that he remain for one final interview. His friend and former roommate, Kushen Tamarov, interviewed here, claims that Todashev had a feeling the FBI was going to kill him and he was afraid.

The only indication that Todashev was violent was Continue reading »

Tsarnaev’s CIA Connections

The Wall Street Journal published an article last week reporting that Tamerlan Tsaranaev, the dead “Suspect Number 1″ in the Boston Marathon Bombing, was in the Caucasus last year unsuccessfully trying to infiltrate an extreme Islamist mosque and attempting to forge a relationship with a rebel group by offering “to act as a financial go-between for an organization based in the U.S.” Tsarnaev has been reported as having no outside connections and limited if any financial resources, so either his offer of U.S. funding was an empty promise, or the official account of his connections and resources is wrong.

Perhaps it informs the answer to know that the offer Tamerlan Tsarnaev was making was for the same service his uncle, Ruslan Tsarni, known at the time as Ruslan Tsarnaev, is reported to have provided to Chechen radicals in the mid-1990s.

Ruslan Tsarnaev, who was married to Samantha Fuller Tsarnaev, daughter of Kabul CIA Chief Graham Fuller, and lived for a year in Fuller’s house, established an organization that, among other things, supported a charitable front of the radical Islamist and jihadist, Sheikh Fathi. According to Daniel Hopsicker, while living in Chief Fuller’s house, Ruslan Tsarnaev established the Congress of Chechen International Organizations using Chief Fuller’s home address as the address of incorporation, and that this organization sent aid to Sheikh Fathi and was otherwise associated with radical Islamists.

Did CIA Chief Fuller unknowingly have a radical Islamist living in his house or was he approving of the organization?

Perhaps Fuller’s own words will inform that answer:

The policy of guiding the evolution of Islam and of helping them against our adversaries worked marvelously well in Afghanistan against the Red Army. The same doctrines can still be used to destabilize what remains of Russian power, and especially to counter the Chinese influence in Central Asia.

Dollars For Terror: The United States and Islam, by Richard Labévière

Sibel Edmonds, former FBI translator and founder of National Security Whistleblowers Coalition, claims that as Saudi Arabian oil peaks, the US will turn its sights on oil-rich Central Asia in an attempt to dominate Russia and China there. It would appear that this process has already begun.

But that’s not the end of the story.  Ruslan Tsarni/Tsarnaev has been affiliated with the alleged CIA front organization USAID over a span of years, and, Ms Edmonds reports that the Georgian government has released documentation that during his trip to Russia last year, the Boston Bombing suspect himself, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, attended a seminar at the Jamestown Foundation, another CIA-linked organization.

These are the dots. . . . dare we connect them?
