7/7 London Bombings Final Word: Her Majesty's Terrorist Network

British intelligence agencies masterminded the London bombings. The stories you have been taught about back-pack bombs, carried by Al Qaeda suicide-bomber terrorists, are also BS lies. Bombs were actually planted underneath the floors of the train, under the carriages, indicating an inside-job.

In a nutshell, this is another attempt by evil neo-con war-mongers and plutocrats to scare everybody into submission and gain more support for the FAKE WAR ON TERROR, or manufactured terrorism, planned by government leaders, to justify police-state laws and continued illegal military invasions and occupations of harmless oil-rich Arab countries... (just like the fake September 11 terror attacks) 7/7 Bombings Final Word: Her Majesty's Terrorist Network.

The wealth of evidence that has emerged in the month following the 7/7 London bombings only leads us to one clear conclusion, that the attacks had to have been orchestrated by or with help from the very highest levels of British intelligence.

The latest piece of evidence to suggest that the official story is a fraud focuses again on the contention that the bombs were placed under the trains and were not detonated by suicide bombers wearing backpacks.

The first eyewitness to report this was Bruce Lait, a victim of the Aldgate Station bombing.

He told the Cambridge Evening News,"The policeman said 'mind that hole, that's where the bomb was'. The metal was pushed upwards as if the bomb was underneath the train. They seem to think the bomb was left in a bag, but I don't remember anybody being where the bomb was, or any bag."

Now another credible source, Guardian journalist Mark Honigsbaum, talked to eyewitnesses at the Edgware Road bombing, who essentially described the same thing.

Eyewitnesses told Honigsbaum that "tiles, the covers on the floor of the train, suddenly flew up, raised up."

How could the floor of the train raise up from a bomb supposedly in the backpack of an individual seated in the carriage, above the floor?

The victims then heard "an almighty crash" as a train traveling in the opposite direction collided, clearly indicating that the train had derailed due to the bomb being placed under the carriage.

For individuals to plant bombs underneath trains and secure them in place without being caught, they would need to secure access to the trains. In this scenario, London Underground could have been told that a dummy device was to be placed underneath the train as part of an exercise to test security an alertness. When the real attacks happened some LU officials would have been alarmed but their suspicions would have dampened when it was revealed that the bombs were carried in backpacks, meaning that the drill was just a strange 'coincidence'.

The fact that the bombs were actually planted underneath the trains could have easily been buried in an avalanche of official announcements to the contrary.

On the other hand the backpack bombs could have just been the diversionary blasts to enable patsies to be framed, just like the planes flying into the towers acted as the diversionary cover for the explosives planted inside the World Trade Center.

The fact that the ID's of all the so-called suicide bombers were found in pristine condition right next to where the bombs went off strongly suggests the planting of evidence to frame patsies. The ID's would have had a very good chance of surviving if the bomb was not in the backpack with them, but underneath the train.

The drill scenario would have provided culpability cover if investigators started asking questions about objects underneath the carriage.

As we have exhaustively documented, such a drill did take place on the morning of 7/7.

A consultancy agency with government and police connections was running an exercise for an unnamed company that revolved around the London Underground being bombed at the exact same times and locations as happened in real life on the morning of July 7th.

On a BBC Radio 5 interview that aired on the evening of the 7th, the host interviewed Peter Power, Managing Director of Visor Consultants, which bills itself as a 'crisis management' advice company, better known to you and I as a PR firm.

Peter Power was a former Scotland Yard official, working at one time with the Anti Terrorist Branch.

Power told the host that at the exact same time that the London bombings were taking place, his company was running a 1,000 person strong exercise which drilled the London Underground being bombed at the exact same locations, at the exact same times, as happened in real life.

How can anyone credibly claim that this was sheer coincidence when pieced together with the rest of the evidence?

Our original article on this matter is the top link on Google when you type in 'London bombing' - above BBC, CNN and ABC News, proof of how much attention this article received.

Our suspicions were aroused just hours after the bombing when it was reported by Associated Press that Israeli Finance Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had received a warning from the Israeli Embassy not to leave his hotel for a speech he was to give that morning. The location of the speech was right next to the site of one of the bombings.

Despite debunking attempts from much of the establishment press, Associated Press never retracted the story and later Mossad admitted that it was true.

The so-called claim of responsibility for the attack was made by a group that is known to not physically exist and which at best is one guy sitting at a computer posting messages on a forum.

And yet the establishment media still report Al-Qaeda responsibility for the attack as if it were the gospel truth.

Exactly what evidence have we seen to even agree with the contention that four men with rucksack bombs carried out this attack? Four grainy CCTV pictures of dark skinned men with rucksacks? Should we not question this evidence especially when verified witnesses on two of the three trains that were bombed said that the bombs were underneath the train and that they saw no men with rucksacks even in the area?

Questions about the attacks are never ending.

Why was it reported that the explosives used were military in origin but then the story changed to say they were homemade? Can explosive experts not tell the difference or was the story changed for a reason?

Why would a man with an 8-month old baby, another who was only interested in sports, and another who taught disabled children, want to kill themselves, other innocent people and cause so much carnage in the process?

Even the establishment media started speculating that the bombers were duped into killing themselves by someone else.

Why did the cameras on the targeted bus malfunction that day? Why was the bus diverted from its usual route? We personally visited the site of the bus bombing at Tavistock Place and verified that no number 30 bus travels down that road.

What are we to make of claims by Stagecoach bus employees who say that a different group of contractors inspected the CCTV cameras in the days before the bombings and that they took two entire days to carry out tasks which normally take just hours to complete.

What is the reason behind Alan Greenspan's decision to flush nearly $40 billion in liquidity into financial markets two days before the attack? Was this an attempt to preemptively head off a run on the markets? If Greenspan had information about a terror attack then why didn't the people on the trains and buses get the same warning?

Who were the individuals that profited from short-selling the British Pound in the ten days before the attack? The pound fell 6% for no particular reason. Fortunes were made after the pound dropped even further in the aftermath of the attacks. This directly mirrors short selling of United and American Airline stocks in the days before 9/11. These suspicious transactions led directly to the CIA.

Why was an innocent man, Jean Charles de Menezes, shot in the head eight times at Stockwell tube station? Why did the police change their story, from saying Menezes was wearing a heavy jacket to admitting it was a lightweight denim jacket? Why did the media initially report that Menezes was shot in the stomach but then change the story when it was pointed out that it would be stupid to shoot suspected suicide bombers in the very place that the bomb would be.

Was Menezes shot because he knew something about the drills? Menezes was an electrician by trade. Did he have damaging knowledge of why the bombings were reported as an electrical surge for over an hour?

Why did Tony Blair immediately reject a public inquiry into how and why the bombings took place? In Britain, there is a public inquiry for every event, no matter how insignificant, and yet after Britain's biggest tragedy since the blitz, Blair shuts the door. What is he frightened of?

The final nail in the coffin regarding inside involvement emerged when it was admitted that the so-called mastermind of both the 7/7 and 7/21 attacks, Haroon Rashid Aswat, is a British Intelligence Asset.

Terror expert John Loftus told Fox News, "Back in 1999 he came to America. The Justice Department wanted to indict him in Seattle because him and his buddy were trying to set up a terrorist training school in Oregon... we've just learned that the headquarters of the US Justice Department ordered the Seattle prosecutors not to touch Aswat... , apparently Aswat was working for British intelligence."

The mastermind of the London bombings was under the direction and protection of MI6. How much more obvious does it need to be that criminal elements of the intelligence agencies were involved in this attack.

The fake terrorist attacks we see almost every day on the news, including all the daily bombings in Iraq (by supposed "insurgents" who happened to have huge stockpiles of explosives for the past 2 years straight), including the Bali bombings and the London bombings, are all lame efforts to scare everyone into submission into supporting the fake "War on Terror" (used to disguise and justify seizing and controlling oil-rich middle-eastern land and to develop hatred against Muslims and Arab-looking people so that people will be more willing to join the army and kill such innocent people).

The plot, uncovered by Singaporean authorities last December before it was fully planned, originally was intended for missions in Manila, not Singapore. The revelations, obtained by GKCNN through key summaries of the US interrogation of Mohammed Mansour Jabarah, demonstrate the new depth of GI members' commitment to the sugar cause.

Plea to release Biggs rejected by ruling-class

UK: Home Secretary Charles Clarke has rejected a plea by Great Train Robber Ronnie Biggs to be released from prison on compassionate grounds.

The ailing 76-year-old has been informed his bid to leave HMP Belmarsh high security jail in south east London on the grounds of his persistent poor health has been turned down because his illness is not deemed terminal. [?]

In a letter to the former fugitive, the National Offender Management Service said Mr Clarke had decided Mr Biggs is not "severely incapacitated so as to satisfy the criteria for compassionate release". [Un-Satisfied Ruling Class?]

The prisoner was told that: "Whilst noting your frailty and the slow deterioration in your condition, (Mr Clarke) is not persuaded that your condition merits the truly exceptional step of releasing you early on compassionate grounds." [Looking at the above photo?]

Biggs, who has recently suffered minor strokes and heart attacks and contracted MRSA, was originally jailed for 30 years for his part in the infamous raid on a Glasgow to London mail train on August 8 1963, when a 15-strong gang made off with £2.6 million in used bank notes.

He escaped from Wandsworth prison in a furniture van after just 15 months and later lived a life of exile in Brazil.

Biggs was detained when he voluntarily returned to the UK in 2001.

Medical reports prepared for the appeal said Biggs often needs a tube to assist in his feeding and has difficulties speaking.

However, doctors said he can walk short distances and is being adequately cared for within the prison system. [Rubbish! In other words, the ruling-class don't have any mercy!]

These shows demonstrate how even our best mainstream news/current affair shows are effectively another corrupt decoy for career politicians (and the rich they serve) to legislate their way to further wealth... via media cronyism.

This is a copy of a letter sent to ABC online this morning in response to their 'current affairs' programme "Insiders". It reads, in part, as follows: "On your webpage you declare "Insiders" is a, "fast-moving treatment of national affairs".

Because of the loaded reporting style, I would say Insiders is more like a gaggle of protection for the elite, and a thorough-going endorsement of the state's handling of national affairs."

The Insiders
ABC

Dear Barrie,


Occasionally I drag myself out of bed on Sunday early enough to watch your collection of prognosticating journalists going under the name of 'the Insiders'. I did so this morning and heard the panic picnic about terorism at home and abroad (esp. Bali).

May I ask what your guests are "inside", Barrie? Our politicians' minds and policies? A sewer? A cosy little Sunday club? Or, all of the above?

Howard, Beazley, Downer, Ruddock, et al, are lying every time they open their mouths in public... and these are the people your reporters seem to know so well. Why should viewers expect pollies' allies in the media to let us in on the real picture? I don't. Programmes like "The Insiders" purport to be investigative and progressive, but inevitably wind up blowing Howard's bugle for him.

Piers Aching-man, perhaps "sorry Laurie" Oakes' main rival for 'aussie' asinine superiority, derides everyone who sees current events differently to him, and assails any/every (rare) comment that comes from the left field (David Marr or Misha). What is he inside? He is a despicable disinformation agent more than anything else.

Likewise, Andrew "nuts and" Bolt(s), sucks more effectively than expensive vacuum cleaners. He is a shameful conduit for state propaganda. I was once an empty-headed cocky, god-bothering know-it-all like him, too. Thankfully, I saw the 'light', and it was dark! Writing for mammon (even if under the banner of 'god') is just not worth it, I'm no longer into fausticuffs.

And who does Paul Kelly think he is? For that matter, what's with the reverence you give him? Is he the face on Mars or something?

Crabby Annabel talks about "trust" like a gullible little schoolgirl-one that hasn't discovered her daddy's involved in prostitution. What on earth have these politicians done to earn our trust? You trust them Annabel, I'm buggered if I will. Your crabby denunciation of George Galloway displays exactly whose camp you're 'inside'. Knowing which side the bread is buttered, you decry the bravest voice in British politics. Put your mirror back in your handbag and go back to the girl guides.

America engineered its own terror scenario by allowing, maybe even planning 9/11. They got their Nazi style "homeland security" and wars in oil-rich Afghanistan and Iraq. England engineered the subway attacks. Suddenly 'Poms' could cope with Tony Bliar's insincere vocal strains again-even his backbenchers have stopped calling for his resignation. Bobbies can now carry guns and the Brits have given the world a template for murder of innocents via the summary execution of Jean Charles de Menezes. Don't you think governments do this in times of national struggle? Think (or research) back to Nazi Germany and the Reichstag Fires! Or Pearl Harbour!

Mainstream journalism and media refuses to even investigate such angles. That is why there is a need for more honest reporting, which only comes via the internet, which is why freedom-hating governments like Australia and America are attempting to outlaw internet sites, etc. The hypocrisy is breath-taking for anyone with the skills to actually read between the lines (lies) of the media.

John Howard has a happy knack of appropriating other nations' terror as our own-he cares not whether it's US, UK, or Bali. Indeed, by jumping into an illegal invasion of Iraq with the megalomaniac George Bush, he boxed Australia into this nightmare. Fear has been his main electoral weapon in consecutive elections, and continues to be the stick behind much of his legislation.

On your webpage you declare Insiders is a, "fast-moving treatment of national affairs". Because of the loaded reporting style, I would say Insiders is more like a gaggle of protection for the elite, and a thorough-going endorsement of the state's handling of national affairs.

Have a proper gander at the news, Barrie. It's on the web, far away from your nonsense of 'trust'. Remember, the Germans (and Prescott Bush, George. W's grand-daddy) trusted Hitler too. Australians should beware who their politicians jump into bed with.

Latham had it right before he got cold feet. Bush's America is immoral, illegal, and dangerous. Australia should tell them and Howard to piss off.

Your show is just another example of an ideological state apparatus at work-only marginally better than the commercial nonsense pushed by Ray Martian, Mooney Yvette and the like.

However, it gives me good insight into the mindset of the journalists who set the tone for Aussie thinking. No wonder we get results like Howard 4 times running. This is the real inside story of "Insiders": what makes Australia's right wing journalists tick?... Egos, dollars and a mentality of na•ve trust. We trust the government juggernaut, and you should trust us.

How do these 'experts' differ from the politicians they serve? The only circle they are 'inside' is a ring of liars perpetuating falsehoods for the benefit of the wealthy. I can remember reading a report in "The Bulletin" 15-20 years ago called "Is Our Media On The Nose?"

It was then, and it is now!

Bush, Howard, Blair, Axis of Evil

From bad to worse is the new sub-text slogan for Bush and his administration. Appearing on US media, flanked by Cheney, Rumsfeld and numerous other (wooden) neo-cons, Bush repeated his rehearsed lines - "we are problem solvers".

Downer
by FX Sunday October 02, 2005 at 04:19 PM

Yeah, I got out of bed the wrong way and found Downer on 9 Sunday

Alexanda Drowner was asked would he pressure Indonesia to ban JI on Sunday CH9.

He said, "Oh they are a shadowy figure". Even though he went hammer at JI for causing the bombing.

If an organisation was delivering bombs and it was not an organisation anyone knew about in indonesia accept for a few planted CIA agents, or even if it is known by some Australian authorities as Drowner claims then why wasn't it banned?

Excellent letter from Barry Parsons!!

Inependent media is where the truth will be found for all who have had their bellyful of mainstream media propaganda.

Here in America, the mainstream media serves as "waterboys" and lackeys for the New World Order power elite.

All free-thinking people of the world are strongly urged to seek out independent sources of information if interested in more than mere corporate-controlled hype and tripe.

The truth is out there for all with eyes to see and ears to hear.

Incidentally, the United States government front is NOT America, nor is the evil cabal that drives it "America". We in independent media are battling the "collective coma of the conditioned masses" here in our country and stress the vital importance of ALL independent media throughout the world to push hard and bypass the mainstream, governmental, and corporate obstacles to exposing truth directly to the public.

I applaud your efforts, Barry Parsons. Please know you are not alone in this fight.

Many, many persons of conscience are fighting on this battlefield. Most people don't yet realize the harsh reality, but the mind is the true battlefield in these "wars". We all need to put up a fight. It will be the only way we can defeat this beast.

The Truth Matters.

They know where you live
Twenty-four hours after the country's leaders agreed to draconian counter-terrorism laws this week, the Attorney-General, Philip Ruddock, was playing down media claims that ASIO believed there were 800 would-be suicide bombers living in Australia.

When Terrorism Outlaws Democracy
On September 27, 2005, Australian democracy surrendered to terrorism. On that day, a coalition of willing federal and state leaders agreed to anti-terrorism legislation that will enable police persecution of the Muslim community and threaten dissidents with imprisonment. In a country without a Bill of Rights, the prospect of more draconian Terror Laws delivers ultimate control through fear. Australia, with its history of penal colonies, racism and detention centers, is now set to become a police state.

Cop Watch: When permanent head injuries ruled to be reasonable force

Former copper kidnaps and rapes 10 year old (allegedly) - Commission rules that police violence that leads to serious and permanent head injuries is 'reasonable' - more police lies on the de Menezes killing in London by terrorist police officers - NSW Police Association criticise A30 Opera House cost of policing - Victorian Police stuff up traffic tickets (again).

As teams of thugs with guns on their hips gear up for their protest against democratic dissent at Circular Quay, Sydney, on Tuesday, the thugs have been showing their true character nationally and overseas.

Former copper Christopher Ronald White has been arrested for sexually abusing a 13 year old girl in Thailand, according to the August 25 Bangkok Post.

The former senior constable kept the girl as a sex slave for 3 years, beginning her abuse at the age of 10.

His trial is expected soon.

Elsewhere, the ABC's 7.30 Report paid a visit to an old story which was broadcast in April, about a young Queenslander named Sam Hogan.

Sam was taken into police custody and mysteriously ended up with massive and permanent brain injuries.

He had been earlier been sprayed with capsicum spray and placed in a 'neck restraint.'

The ever-vigilant Queensland Crime and Misconduct Commission has found that the massive and permanent brain injuries were not the result of unreasonable force.

In the words of the Commission, 'The arrest of Samuel Hogan was lawful and the force used was not excessive.'

In the word's of Sam's mother, Leslee Hogan, 'I think the report represents a gross miscarriage of justice and I just wonder how many people have to die or be grievously harmed before police get more than a rap over the knuckles.'

So, lets give the thugs more powers. ABC News Online on August 25 reports that the Tasmanian Opposition has called for new laws allowing random (ie, blanket) searching on TT-Line passengers. Heaven help us.

In other news, even more lies have been discovered about the killing of de Menezes in London by terrorist police, go to More lies from the British police on the de Menezes murder

The NSW Police Association has questioned why the so-called user-pays system, whereby organisers foot the bill for a police presence, was not being used for the Forbes conference, according to a Police Association spokesperson who was critical of the funding arrangements, on Thursday August 25,

AND, the poor bloody stupid and corrupt police in Victoria have received another ticking off, with the Victorian opposition calling for a review of the speed camera network following 119 infringements being sent out incorrectly, according to an August 25 AAP story.
