"The truth is there is no Islamic army or terrorist group called Al Qaida. And any informed intelligence officer knows this. But there is a propaganda campaign to make the public believe in the presence of an identified entity representing the devil only in order to drive TV watchers to accept a unified international leadership for a war against terrorism. The country behind the propaganda is the U.S." Maj. Pierre-Henri Bunel
The term Al Qaida actually derives from a two-part arabic computer file housed in the early 1980s at the Islamic Bank for Development located in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The parts were called "Q eidat il-Maaloomaat" and "Q eidat i-Taaleemaat," and were joined in a single file called "Q eidat ilmu'ti'aat," which is the exact translation for the english term database.' The arabs commonly used the shorter version Al Qaida,' which literally means the base.'
The files were used by member nations and their embassies worldwide to keep track of Islamic groups and facilitate communications among members. This intranet was available to banking and other well-connected families such as the Bin Ladens to maintain links with their children.
The database was an excellent channel for coded or covert messages and the United States used it to communicate with Osama Bin Laden when he was operating as an American agent in Afghanistan.
Maj. Bunel, whose position as a command staff officer for France gave him access to a great deal of classified information as well as working associations with Jordanian air defense officers, was one of those who spilled the beans about Al Qaida. Before being set-up, framed, and convicted by a secret military court for passing military secrets to Serbian agents, Bunel explained that Al Qaida was in reality just a western invention used to justify creation of a worldwide war on terror.'
"Al Qaida was neither a terrorist group nor Osama bin Laden's personal property . . .
" . . . In the Third World the general opinion is that the countries using weapons of mass destruction for economic purposes in the service of imperialism are in fact rogue states,' specially the US and other NATO countries.
" Some Islamic economic lobbies are conducting a war against the liberal" economic lobbies. They use local terrorist groups claiming to act on behalf of Al Qaida. On the other hand, national armies invade independent countries under the aegis of the UN Security Council and carry out pre-emptive wars. And the real sponsors of these wars are not governments but the lobbies concealed behind them."
Interestingly, the government to which Bunel was alleged to have passed secret information claimed that Albanian and Bosnian guerrillas were being backed by forces aligned with Al Qaida. It has since been exposed that these guerrillas were paid by the Bosnian Defense Fund a special fund created at the Bush-influenced Riggs Bank whose director included neocons Douglas Feith and Richard Perle.
How could Al Qaida be imaginary? Who then was Osama Bin Laden? What about the so-called 9-11 mastermind' who's said to have confessed? What about all those Al Qaida communiqués?
Bin Laden, he was a guy with a lot of money and charisma who the CIA enlisted to make life a living hell for the Soviet occupation. After that, he'd outlived his utility as an ally and grown more valuable as an enemy. Without a single, at once secretive and amorphous, enemy who might be anywhere and strike at anything, there's no possible way to sell to Americans a restricted, thoroughly policed society unless you scare them.
As for any masterminds' in U.S. custody, I submit that after the CIA's mind control experts, doctors, and psy ops gang got through with them they would no doubt confess to fixing the 1919 World Series.
For his part, Bin Laden denied authorship from the beginning and never wavered, and the FBI refused to list him as wanted for the crime because they said there was insufficient evidence. And those videos you saw purporting to be Bin Laden, fakes, all of them, and they've been proven to be.
That Al Qaida does not actually exist, except as an appellation with largely domestic purposes, is maybe America's darkest secret. On this hook the country's leaders have hung freedom of speech and freedom of the press, freedom to petition the government for redress of grievances, the right to trial, the right to face your accuser, the right to counsel, the right not to be deprived of life or property without due process of law. The excuse, when one is offered at all, is that the world has changed since 9-11, that we are obligated if we wish to survive to exchange freedom for security.
The entire arc of American foreign and domestic policy is based on Al Qaida and the war on terror,' the most convenient and eternal rationale for imposition of police state controls on citizens ever attempted. An enemy which doesn't exist may be said responsible for anything, including events created by our own secret police. Since it doesn't exist, there is no one available to surrender. It will therefore go on forever. And this war will be fought without concern for borders. Thus Senator Graham can declare that the United States is "part of the battleground," and Obama can order wedding celebrations hit with Hellfire missiles in Yemen, Pakistan, Afghanistan, or most other countries not our allies and run by white people.
Whether the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon were instigated by sources outside the U.S. or not becomes immaterial since they enabled the Patriot Act, the NDAA, and all subsequent measures designed to tighten the federal grip on its citizens.
I wouldn't bring this up right now but for the fact that with the political games about to move to the front pages, the Kabuki theater of Obama and the Republicans on matters of budget and of war, maybe we should keep in mind the larger context in which they are played out.
