Al Qaeda worked for CIA, Halliburton!!!
Halliburton has a stake in the "Trans-Balkan Pipeline".


In Macedonia, however, the evidence amply confirms that the Bush Administration (together with NATO) is directly supporting terrorist organisations which have links to Al Qaeda. In other words, the Bush Administration is harboring international terrorism as part of its foreign policy agenda.

Title: "NATO Invades Macedonia"
Author: Michel Chossudovsky

Faculty evaluators: Elizabeth Burch, Phil Beard, John Lund
Student researchers: Alessandra Diana, David V. Immel

The CIA destabilized the political balance in Macedonia to allow easier access for a US-British owned oil pipeline, and to prevent Macedonia from entering the European Union (EU), thereby strengthening the US dollar in a German deutschmark dominated region.

Without Macedonia in the EU, British and US oil companies have an advantage over European counterparts in building oil pipelines......
and then Al QAeda in Macedonia????? If one believes that Al Qaeda and the Bushies are buddies, it isn't so hard to beleive. Are they the operatives for the CIA there?

.......The fact that Al Qaeda continues to support KLA terrorist operations in Macedonia, with the full support of NATO and the US government, has been carefully overlooked. With the complicity of NATO and the US State Department. Mujahideen mercenaries from the Middle East and Central Asia were first recruited to fight in the ranks of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) in 1998-99, largely supporting NATO's war effort.

Bin Laden had visited Albania himself. His was one of several fundamentalist groups that had sent units to fight in Kosovo. He is believed to have established an operation in Albania in 1994. Albanian sources say Sali Berisha, who was then president, had links with some groups that later proved to be extreme fundamentalists. (Sunday Times, London, 29 November 1998.)........

Among the foreign mercenaries now fighting in Macedonia (October 2001), in the ranks of self-proclaimed National Liberation Army (NLA), are Mujahideen from the Middle East and the Central Asian republics of the former Soviet Union. Also within the KLA's proxy force in Macedonia are senior US military advisers from a private mercenary outfit on contract to the Pentagon. (Scotland on Sunday, Glasgow, 15 June 2001)

Extensively documented by the Macedonian press and statements of the Macedonian authorities, the US government and the "Islamic Militant Network" are working hand in glove in supporting and financing the self-proclaimed National Liberation Army (NLA), involved in the terrorist attacks in Macedonia. The NLA is a proxy of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA). In turn the KLA and the UN sponsored Kosovo Protection Corps (KPC) are identical institutions with the same commanders and military personnel. KPC Commanders on UN salaries are fighting in the NLA together with the Mujahideen. In a bitter twist, while supported and financed by Osama bin Laden's Al Qaeda, the KLA-NLA is also supported by NATO and the United Nations mission to Kosovo (UNMIK).

The KLA-NLA terrorists are funded by US military aid, the United Nations peace-keeping budget, as well as by several Islamic organisations including Osama bin Laden's Al Qaeda. Meanwhile, drug money is being used to finance the terrorists with the complicity of the US government. US military advisers mingle with Mujahideen within the same paramilitary force, Western mercenaries from NATO countries fight alongside Mujahideen recruited in the Middle East and Central Asia. .....

snip

.....The Bush Administration has stated that it has proof that Osama bin Laden is behind the attacks on the WTC and the Pentagon. A major war, supposedly "against international terrorism", has been launched by the Bush Administration. In Macedonia, however, the evidence amply confirms that the Bush Administration (together with NATO) is directly supporting terrorist organisations which have links to Al Qaeda. In other words, the Bush Administration is harboring international terrorism as part of its foreign policy agenda. The main justification for waging the so-called war on terrorism has been a total fabrication. The American people have been deliberately and consciously misled by their government into supporting a major military adventure which affects our collective future.

2. I'm still waiting for the "proof" Bush has. Also, rumors there
are al Quada in Venezuala. Yes, it's amazing where these people are found. And you notice they are always behind everything that "goes wrong". Like all those bombing in Iraq. Why would the real al Quada, that is doing this as a "Holy War" be bombing religious sites?

7. Sorry, thanks for your "moderate" response.
I thought it was pretty old and has been circulated around the internet awhile.

4. This surprises you? They have supported most every "terrorist" group
How else do you keep the war games alive and keep their profit margin high?? You can't sell arms and repair war damage if there aren't any wars and other strife. This is how these guys (the Bushes, Cheney's, Rumsfelds, etc) make their incomes. You didn't think they were living off their government wages, did you?

6. It's the documentation that is so exciting.
I have seen very little definitive links between Al Qaeda and the US government. We know about the charities angle and the links to Saudi Arabia, etc. but little specific on their links to the US government working in concert. If this was investigated a smoking gun would surely appear. Heck, Al Qaeda could still be operating as a US "ally" over there.

I posted this at Yahoo message boards and it sent the freepers into a tizzy. They made a concerted attack on it. Funny as hell.

5. Gunga Bush was fighting the fillthy Reds...
... from behind the skirts, I mean scenes. Peter Dale Scott does his usual outstanding job, with plenty o' links:

More on the BCCI-bin Mahfouz-bin Laden Intelligence Nexus

It is clearer than ever before that the nexus of connections made by BCCI in Washington -- to US banks, law firms, politicians, and the CIA -- as well as of connections to top Saudi intelligence officials and members of the Saudi royal family, was preserved after the closure of BCCI in 1991, and was utilized later to fund Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda.

SNIP...

I. The personal indebtedness to Khalid bin Mahfouz's millions of the family of James Baker, close personal confidant and Treasury Secretary to the first President Bush, and later an officer with him of the Carlyle Group, in which the bin Laden family also invested. In 1985 bin Mahfouz was one of the Saudi financiers who purchased the Bank Tower in Houston of the Baker family Texas Commerce Bank, for $200 million. This was $60 million more than it had cost to build the Bank Tower four years earlier; and the sale was made "in the depth of Texas' real estate crash... at a time when it was difficult to give away office space in Houston" (Beaty and Gwynne, The Outlaw Bank, 355).

II. The involvement of both a bin Laden family affiliate, the Saudi Investment Company (SICO), and of the bin Mahfouz family National Commercial Bank, with the Bank of New York - Inter Maritime Bank of Geneva, owned and managed by Bruce Rappaport. The Kerry-Brown Report gave details of the involvement in the 1980s of Rappaport, and of his bank's Vice President, Alfred Hartmann, with BCCI, with former CIA Director William Casey, and with the National Bank of Oman which forwarded Arab money to the Afghan mujahedin (Beaty and Gwynne, The Outlaw Bank, 311-12; Kerry-Brown Report, 318-20; cf. 69).

The bin Laden family have tried to depict Osama as a renegade, and more recently the bin Mahfouz family have tried to say the same of Khalid. The details of this nexus make both claims highly unlikely. It would appear that the main reason we do not get the whole truth about this nexus is the involvement of Saudi, British, and US intelligence, not just before 1991, but today.
