COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN RUSSIA TODAY
Response to a comment
from another reader who said:
“J. Michael
Springmann, the former chief of the visa section at the US consulate in Jeddah
(where 15 of the hijackers got their visas), has testified that his denial of
visas to potential terrorists was repeatedly countermanded by the CIA station
chief there.”
Yes, I am aware of this, and it is one of the most important
tidbits of information we have on the events around 9/11.
I very much believe that the CIA (with Israel, who had a
number of agents in two groups working in the US at the time) was running a
special operation of which we have never been advised.
Something backfired, I don't know just what, and 9/11
happened.
Rather a classic case of what security services call
"blowback."
We'll likely never learn the truth, especially since the
truth would tend to implicate CIA and Mossad with the general public, and I
guarantee the 28-pager from the Congressional Committee will do little to
enlighten us.
After all, just look at the congressmen supporting its
release.
These are not people searching for truth but people looking
for someone to vaguely blame so America’s professional class of victims finally
gets off their backs.
The only revelation of the 28 pages is likely about the
Saudis’ financial support for bin Laden.
But we already knew about this from Anthony Summers' book
about 9/11.
Besides, the Saudis were only paying bin Laden to keep him
out of their hair. They were not commissioning terror.
And yet again, we have never had an ounce of proof of bin
Laden’s guilt. Everyone just takes it for granted because it has been repeated
a million times by the CIA’s loyal associates in the American press.
So, we know as little as ever, and are quite unlikely to
learn the truth.
Just as is the case with the assassination of John Kennedy –
almost certainly the work of CIA Cuban refugee terrorist-associates at the time
- or the destruction of TWA Flight 800 - which all reliable evidence, including
eyewitnesses, strongly suggests was brought down by the accidental release of
an anti-aircraft missile by a US Navy ship in the area.
