Having trained and dealt with Islamic military from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and Saudi Arabia, I am certain those Islamic personalities responsible for 9-11 were hoping (they can only pray phrases out of the Koran) that President Bush would over-react and wantonly destroy private property and non-combatants in our military focus on obliterating the Taliban and Osama’s Al-Qaeda. They desperately wanted George Bush to station large numbers of U.S. and Western coalition troops on Islamic soil. This "invasion" of Islam would justify using the most heinous of all weapons in the terror-arsenal against America and European population centers. To the point of this writing (July 2002), the Bush Administration has done well. Right now, the scales of justice, in accordance with the Koran, are balanced. Israel is pressuring the US to re-run Desert Storm. Such a measure would be a cataclysmic mistake in my qualified opinion as a Army General Staff Officer. Another blitz of Iraq would only provide militant Muslims the excuse they want to escalate the level of terrorism worldwide!

 

General Wayne A. Downing is a friend of mine. Wayne commanded the 2nd Ranger Battalion at Fort Lewis, Washington, while I was the commander of 3/7 Special Forces in Panama. I enlisted my son, Jim into the Rangers and he served as Downing’s driver and Machine-gunner. When I left uniform to go in search of U.S. POWs, Wayne remained and became the Ranger Regimental Commander, then CINCSOCOM (Commander-in-Chief of all Special Operation Forces) as a four-star general at McDill AFB, Florida. Downing controlled all of America’s counter-terrorist forces including Army Rangers, Special Forces, Delta Force, Navy Seals, USMC Force Recon, etc. Wayne attended my friend, Joe Felter’s, funeral at Arlington Cemetery, September 1999. He met Judy and intimated to us both: "Bo, I envy you. I wish I could be doing the things you do, but you understand how it is." Yes, I understood, Wayne, another friend there, General Volney Warner (CG of Forces Command), as four-stars Generals were all indelibly written into the book of "insiders." Their forever allegiance was to the establishment — right or wrong. I have sometimes pondered my decisions which kept me from finishing a military career. After shaking hands goodbye with these two fine gentlemen, I was glad to be free, to be me.

 

With the advent of Bush’s War on Terrorism, Wayne Downing, 62, was called to the White House as Deputy National Security Advisor for Combating Terrorism on Dr. Condoleezza Rice and Governor Tom Ridge’s national security staff. As such Wayne set the pace and plans for dealing with Iraq (The Downing Plan) and toppling Saddam Hussein. Disappointed with the benign NSC, Downing walked away on June 28th, 2002. He was replaced by another General, John A. Gordon (Chief of the National Nuclear Security Administration and previously Deputy Director of the CIA). Elliot Cohen, an expert on defense strategy at Johns Hopkins University, said: "I think it is bad news for the war. Downing is a warrior who thinks like a bank robber, unconventional in the best sense, which is what you need when fighting a strange war." Downing sought to cut the head off the snake (Hussei) using a mix of special operations personnel, air power, and Iraqi rebels. He was opposed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff and General Tommy R. Franks, CG of the Persian Gulf and Afghanistan. They want to attack Iraq with an army of more than 200,000! The Downing Plan would have fit nicely within Koran limits forbidding escalation of the jihad. 9-11 was pay-back for Bush, Sr’s, blitz of Iraq. Another invasion will assuredly result in greater attacks on the USA!

 

The 9-11 terror-attack, changed our way of life — as we knew it would. America-up-to-then passed away, bequeathing us with what America will now become. As other belligerents before it, Afghanistan is being used as a test-tube for the "free-world’s" newest weapons. As I had hoped, the U.S. aided Mujahideen troops (Northern Alliance), instead of inserting large Western conventional ground units ala Desert Storm. It even seems that U.S. special operations forces were correctly used in liaison with the Mujahideen and in direct-action missions. The use of RPVs (Remotely Piloted Vehicles) has also proven its value to find and confirm targets without detection, and even attack without endangering America ground troops. This is a useful innovation denied us in past wars.

 

About the only major military move left undone in Afghanistan is the assignment of Special Forces teams to organize, equip, train, and lead the six other Mujahideen tribal factions in the conduct of guerrilla warfare against terror-support forces. These native troops provide the best means for locating and destroying terrorist base camps and killing Osama bin-Laden. Unfortunately, it has long been the nature of CIA bureau-rats to identify and support only those colorless, heartless, odious, spineless local-personalities willing to trade loyalty for money — insuring a continued imbalance and unstable government in Kabul. The CIA once supported the Taliban, and Saddam Hussein.

 

The Northern Alliance’s lightening move to occupy the Afghan capital city of Kabul and exploit (Patton-style) to the southern border with Pakistan, pleasantly surprised everyone. The problem now is to consolidate and hold their gains. They aren’t likely to provide any long-term national stabilization because the foundations of true government in Afghanistan have long been destroyed. Until this footing of law has been restored only chaos will reign. The USA, having caused the collapse of the intellectual-ruling Taliban, now must assure that the Afghan people are supported in peacefully rebuilding a representative of their rights as human beings and citizens (sort of the way it was in America after 1791). Psalm 11:3 tells us: "If the foundations be destroyed what can the righteous do?" Pakistan desired and has a lead in this new endeavor, which is certainly better than giving free-reign to the former Soviet officers and heroin dealers who now influence the CIA’s Northern Alliance. Afghanistan is and should remain a nation of Islam. Even as Pakistan and later Bangladesh broke away from India for religious purity, so should the land of Rudyard Kipling, Gunga Din, and the Khyber Pass remain as East as our country is West.

 

Truly time has changed the orientation of the Middle East. What would have been seen as a resurrection of the Crusades 50-years ago, was well played by Western power-brokers in mollifying financially fat Arab oil barons. There is a Satanic phrase: "You can buy anything in this world for money." Certainly the love of money is the root of all evil, and even our devout enemies "have their price." Our Department of Defense has issued a reward notice of $25,000,000 for information leading to the capture of Osama bin-Laden. It is a hollow, vain offer since any Arab claiming such a prize would surely not live long. I can assure you bin-Laden is a Pancho Villa-type hero to the Muslim world. However, wherever, whenever found, to minimize his martyr value, Osama bin-Laden should be summarily exterminated and obliterated to leave no haloed grave. There is plenty of Arab money to rebuild the infrastructure of Afghanistan — it should be their duty, not ours, since Allah cares for the sons of Abraham’s first-born, even as Yahweh sees to the needs of His covenant people.

Al-Qaeda purchased nukes may have already reached US shores — or even been buryed in America for decades. While it doesn’t fit the Koran requiem exactly, the United Nations General Assembly session will become a prime target if the membership begins to favor Israel over the PLO. My own conclusions are supported some what by U.S. and Pakistani intelligence summaries. During the cold war, the USSR planted caches throughout the Western world — certainly in America. Working out of Islamabad using local intelligence sources, the CIA/Paki joint team reported it is almost certain that bin-Laden’s organization, Al-Qaeda, has successfully transported several weapons of mass destruction (nuclear, biological, and chemical) into the USA — including two Small Atomic Demolition Munitions (suitcase nukes)! The joint team has said it identified at least one briefcase weapon acquired by Al Qaeda from a Central Asian rogue group. The weapon is a small 20-pound device of Russian manufacture in October 1988, that carries at least five-pounds of fissionable plutonium and uranium.

 

First generation SADAMs looked like small black pot-bellied stoves, divided into man portable pieces for on target assembly. A cubic-foot baseplate contains three heavy donut rings of Uranium. A 24-inch gun-tube holds a large soup can-size projectile of complementing weapons-grade radio-active material. Two silver-dollar-like "squib" cells screw into the inside bottom of the blase-plate within the donut hole. A timer with fail-safe manual dials is attached to the top of the gun tube. Once set, anti-disturbance devices will explode the device if further adjustments are attempted. When time runs out, the projectile is fired to exactly fill the hole in the O-rings and crush the squib-cells, creating a super-critical mass, and a nuclear explosion.

 

Neither the Soviets nor the US ever admitted having these dirty little bombs because they violate all treaty agreements and result in deadly contamination and radio-active fall-out. Whereas airborne thermonuclear bombs and air-burst missiles destroy with heat and blast, the fire-ball created by detonating a man-placed SADAM always touches the earth’s surface, contaminating whatever comes into contact with the debris. Later modifications added compact solid-state electronics which widened the options for remote detonation and made the overall packaging smaller, lighter, and more uniform in shape (briefcase v. pot-belly stove). The danger in older SADAMs is the extended shelf-life without electronics, and there presence in America — cached by Soviet agents against a time of general war — to be used by moles. While almost everything is for sale in the old USSR, even a profiteering Communist would have to be insane to hand-over a suitcase-nuke to a rag-head terrorist, not knowing when or where it might go off. Selling the location of a cache-site in the US would produce the same devise with less personal guilt and risk. I believe, while yet denied, the Pentagon can account for every U.S. SADAM manufactured. Unfortunately, it is acknowledged by former officials of the USSR that almost 100 of their SADAMs are unaccounted for!

 

Besides nuclear devices, it is suspected that chemical and a biological weapons have also been placed in the hands of Al Qaeda activists. They are said to be in possession of at least 70 capsules containing a very lethal biological agent, also of Russian origin. Broken in a closed crowded place, the capsules can cause deaths on a huge scale by dissolving human flesh to the bone. A chemical agent thought to be available to Al Qaeda operators is called Vipera Lebentina Venema, a derivative of snake poisons. This venom, developed in the former USSR, attacks nerve and blood systems through skin. A most probable way of introducing this agent is through the mail — as with Anthrax.

 

Now that the Administration has admitted being warned about Black Tuesday, how much more confessing remains under wraps? I‘m certain the Israeli Mossad knew details of the strike long before it occurred. Why weren’t we warned — and if we were — why was nothing done to thwart the harbingers of so much innocent death and destruction? Considerable evidence exists that President Franklin Roosevelt had advanced knowledge about the attack on Pearl and either knowing or unwittingly failed to issue the warning? Hadn’t he stated, as Woodrow Wilson before him, and LBJ after him, that we wouldn’t involve America in a foreign war? Didn’t each of these presidents use an emotional tragedy to do exactly the opposite (Lusitania, and Tonkin Gulf attacks)? In an era where there is no significant military threat to the United States, what could have caused a national like Israel and a President like Bush to allow such an assault on America? Many students of history know of Winston Churchill’s endeavor to draw America into the war. If we would not have entered the fighting, Germany and Japan would have likely won — and the world would not be as it is today.

 

While we support Israel, they are not always on our side. Israel has survived three major Arab invasions. Their continued existence depends on knowing every detail of what their Muslim enemies are planning. The Mossad’s excuse for nefarious trafficking of US-gifted hardware is to have money to purchase Arab secrets. America is Israel’s security blanket. From Israel’s point of view, the basic answer is simple: Encourage and allow any act that will more closely align the U.S. with Israel against the Arab world. So, were President Bush’s intelligence gathering agencies actually in the dark? Did NSC Condoleezza Rice, VP Dick Cheney, Sec State Colin Powell, Sec Def Donald Rumsfeld, CIA George Tenet, and NSA Michael Hayden, like Sergeant Schultz, know nothing? Evidence indicates they were informed and yet allowed the strikes to happen. Harvey L. Pitt — Securities & Exchange Commission may also be culpable!

 

The Associated Press is an old, large, and respected print news service. AP ran the following story datelined Tel Aviv, on 9-21-01: "Israeli intelligence services were aware months ago that Osama bin Laden was planning a large-scale terror attack. The Israeli official, who briefed journalists on conditions of anonymity, said ‘everybody knew about a heightened alert, and knew that bin Laden was preparing a big attack.’ The official admitted that the Mossad DID NOT pass on concrete warnings." I am aware that the Mossad did warn Washington in August 2000 that as many as 200 terrorists linked to bin Laden were slipping into the country to prepare a major assault in the United States. CIA spokesman Bill Harlow denies as "utter nonsense" that the Agency received advanced warning in any form. Maybe DCI Tenet needs to spend less time with YasirArafat, and give more of an ear to Ariel Sharon.

 

My routine source of world news comes from CNN. Eileen O’Connor reported on 19 September 2001 that Philippine Security Police learned of the plan to skyjack airliners and use them as flying bombs. They also listed the targets as the CIA Headquarters, Pentagon and New York City’s World Trade Center. Syndicated Columnist Robert Novak reported: "The CIA and FBI had advanced indications of plans to hijack airliners and use them as weapons, but failed to act or distribute the intelligence to local police agencies."

 

Bin Laden sponsored terrorist, Abdul Hakin Murad, was arrested in Manila, Philippines in 1995. Authorities discovered a plan to use commercial airlines as bombs on his lap-top computer under the heading "Project BOJINKA." Murad confessed that he was being trained for a suicide mission and that, if not for his being caught, he would have carried it out. He was extradited to the U.S. and convicted together with Ramiz Yousef, as one of the participants in the World Trade Center bombing on 26 February 1993. Another major clue came from the American Airlines corporate headquarters. At the end of August 2001, American Airlines alerted its employees to be on the lookout for people posing as AA-staff. The alarm was sounded after American Airline workers reported uniforms and ID badges were stolen from their hotel rooms in Rome, Italy.

 

Our own Department of Justice refused the FBI a National Security search warrant to look at the computer of Zacarias Moussaoui arrested on immigration charges just days before the 9-11 attack. The FBI took Moussaoui into custody on 17 August after being warned by French authorities that he was on a bin Laden terrorist "watch list." The FBI had also been called in August by a flight school in Eagan, Minnesota saying Moussaoui had offered cash for lessons on "how to steer a commercial airliner, but was not interested in how to take-off or land!" At one point Moussaoui asked a flight instructor about "opening cabin doors on Boeing 757 and 767 aircraft!" In view of all the red flags, why was the FBI stymied in its effort to investigate Moussaoui?

 

It was reported that Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms personnel were conspicuously absent from the Oklahoma City Federal Building when McVeigh’s Ryder Truck bomb exploded. Maybe it was just coincidence that hundreds of CIA staff officials were absent from Langley on 11 September, attending an intelligence seminar at Fort Huachuca, the U.S. Army Intelligence Center, at Sierra Vista, Arizona.

 

Is it understandable why Israel would not share information with the United States which could have prevented the 9-11 terror attacks? It is easy to imagine how Department of Justice bunglers, left over from the Clinton Administration would deny the FBI access to a computer belonging to a known bin-Laden terrorist. But what about Wall Street insiders, with prior knowledge of the bombings, profiting from this information by selling airline stocks short before the attacks occurred — and made fortunes on the tragic death and suffering of so many others?!

 

Another USG agency who could lead investigators to others who sat on advanced knowledge of 9-11, is the Security Exchange Commission and the Internal Revenue Service! Both CNN and the Wall Street Journal reported there was extremely heavy short-selling of United and American airlines stock, as well as acquisition of "put-contracts" from brokerage firms in the days IMMEDIATELY PRIOR to the 9-11 attack. Put-contracts allow you to purchase an option to deliver shares at a future date. If the shares fall in price, the value of the option contract shoots up. The more the cost per share declines, the more the put-contract is worth. The put-contracts on American and United stock increased more than 1,000 percent! Put-contracts for American and United airlines normally trade at a rate of eight to 10 per day in early September. The rate five to six days before the 11 September hijacking of four American and United aircraft zoomed to 700-800 PER DAY! Individuals making these financial arrangements knew exact details of exactly what airlines and when the attacks would occur! THERE IS NO OTHER EXPLANATION!

 

Under strict Securities Exchange Commission rules, purchasers of put-contracts must be recorded by Social Security or Tax ID numbers. Any suspicious transactions must be reported to the Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service. WHY DIDN’T THE FBI INVESTIGATE? Why didn’t the Commission report? Would you think that brokers selling airline stock short, and purchasing put-contracts just before Black Tuesday might have known about the attacks, and thought to profit from the damage about to be inflicted? Should the FBI/CIA and FINCEN (ad hoc federal task force established to monitor money transactions for signs of criminal activity) be concerned with such people? Why haven’t we heard who these traitorous traders are? Could they be people we would readily recognize. By unraveling this string of greed, would we find it tied to people in high positions of special trust and confidence capitalizing from information which, if known and acted on might have stopped a war before it could start? HERE ARE THE ANSWERS!!!

 

On September 6th and 7th, the Chicago Board Options Exchange saw purchases of 4,744 put-option-contracts on United Airlines vs. a normal 10-12! On September 10th, the same Chicago Exchange processed 4,516 put-options on American Airlines compared with 15-20 on a normal day. NO OTHER AIRLINE saw such trading. Trading spikes weren’t just focused on UAL and AAL. Two major tenants in the World Trade Center were Morgan Stanley, and Merrill Lynch. Morgan Stanley normally recorded 27 options daily, but in the three days before 9-11, saw 2,157; while the figure at Merrill Lynch was 12,215! It is noteworthy that put-option-contracts is probably more closely watched than any other movement of stocks and bonds since insiders could make fortunes trading on critical information. Over the years, even the most minor infractions, even by hourly-paid workers, resulted in harsh prison terms.

A KEY PARTICIPANT IN THESE TRADES WAS A.B. "Buzzy" KRONGARD. Krongard was CEO and Chairman of the Board of Alex Brown, Inc., America’s oldest investment banking firm, now owned by Deutsch Bank. It was Alex Brown that executed the extreme spike in airline put-option-contracts. He was also Vice Chairman of the Board to Bankers Trust. AMAZINGLY, DCI George W. Tenet appointed Buzzy Krongard to be the EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY ON MARCH, 16, 2001!!! Krongard, CIA third ranking official, is quoted saying: "I am proud and we should all be proud of the operations of our Central Intelligence Agency and its staff!" NOW DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHY THERE HAS BEEN NO INVESTIGATION OF THE CIA and Buzzy KRONGARD!!! Before his promotion, Krongard was Counselor to the DCI for the past three-years. Tenet stated: "Buzzy is the perfect individual to build upon the successes we have had in recent years and to bring the management of the Agency to the next level of performance." A-B-normal Krongard was also a U.S. Marine for three-years.

 

Since September 11th there has been a steady stream of news reporters and interested parties from the U.S. and abroad wanting my opinions on our newest war. Each time I explain how the Holy Koran works and that the September attack was pay-back for what President Bush and the "coalition" did to Iraq. When they ask about weapons of mass destruction and their possible use by Islamic extremists against innocent Americans, I make the caveat that it doesn’t fit the Koran unless America kills innocent Muslims in our attacks against Aran terrorist organizations. I believe bin Laden has access to mass weapons of destruction (chemical, biological, and nuclear). I am certain he is looking for an excuse to use them against us. I don’t believe, to this point, the reported anthrax attacks are the responsibility of the Islamic Jihad — it doesn’t follow the Koran. I am convinced that home-grown terrorists, angry with the system, pose a threat. These are demented anarchists who would use our war on Islamic terrorism as a screen to conceal their own cowardly acts.

 

These are insecure extremist types already identified in the chapter on Mis-guided Ministers, followers of the "two-seed-line" ideology. They consider themselves Constitutional-patriots, yet break the law pretending to keep the law. They believe in a Jewish conspiracy to destroy Christianity and rule the world. The hard core are onetime supporters to hate groups, possibly the Covenant, Sword, and Arm of the Lord, The Order, or more probably the Phinehas Priesthood (Saved Israel from a plague, ergo gives God’s enemies a plague). Such terrorists will attack soft targets such as unsuspecting individuals, gatherings, and businesses. The media will be attacked because they are Jewish controlled and encourage race-mixing, sodomy, adultery, and other sinful perversions. A letter laced with anthrax spoors was sent to Congress because they have of long history of openly supporting Israel. Area targets, besides New York and California, include New Jersey because Newport and other Jewish settlements were home to slavers and liquor manufacturers. The frequency of crime will be governed by the supply of anthrax or ricin allows. Ricin is a highly toxic protein isolated from the castor bean in the form of a white powder, used to agglutinate (congeal) red blood corpuscles. Ricin was the favorite instrument of the KGB to poison enemies of the State. It kills quickly with very little dosage (as little as one- milligram per pound of target weight). Several years ago a "patriot" secured some 10-pounds of high-grade Ricin from a manufacturer in Alaska. His mega-death cache of Ricin was discovered and confiscated. He said it was to eradicate rodents — but was non-specific as to the exact specie.

 

Terrorists, regardless of origin are cowards, and our enemies. There is nothing glorious nor heroic about killing innocent people. You may claim that with out Jewish terrorism against the British, Israel would not be a recognized nation-state today. You may believe the Irish Republican Army is honorable for exploding bombs which destroyed innocent lives. You may believe the only way that the Palestinians have of regaining a homeland is through terrorism. There may be some philosophical merit to such thought that the death of a few innocents is worth the overall good gained, but I disagree. The Priest Phinehas, Aaron’s grandson, stayed Israel from a plague by running a javelin through a prince of Israel and a cohabitating Midianitish princess (Numbers 25:7-15). While under normal circumstances it would have been considered murder, it was ruled righteous zeal. Phinehas was judged and acquitted for his action. If a person feels justified in killing another it is a crime until properly adjudicated. Terrorists are criminals — not heroes until properly judged.

 

The best way for average citizens to win the war against terrorism in America is to be alert. Stay abreast of the news and report suspicious activities to the proper authorities. Become skilled in the use of small-arms, chemical spray, and telescoping steel batons, and electronic tasers. Legally arm yourself with these self-defense weapons and keep them handy in your home and vehicle. Such tools represent your personal arsenal. Use a dog as a warning device. Keep cell phones activated in pockets and purses when and where you feel vulnerable.

 

Take self-defense martial-arts classes if you have the time, and facilities are available. Don’t waste money on schools who won’t allow you to observe a class or two before you join. Such training is supposed to extend your life, not shorten it. No one should be hurt or injured during the training. While you can learn from any qualified and good instructor, martial-arts tend to be Oriental "classic" in their presentation. Aikido, for example, basically requires the victim to be attacked before a classic defense can be applied. There may be times when the best defense is an attack! Tradition karate, for example, consists of punches, strikes and kicks. It may be that a level of force less than striking an opponent is appropriate. In general, the best "brand" of martial-art is one which freely incorporates all manner of hitting, kicking, butting, gouging, choking, locking, throwing, et al. One effective and efficient style is Korean Hapkido — a mix of karate, Jujitsu, and aikido.

 

Don’t think you can learn useful self-defense from a book, or videos — it takes 3-D hand-to-gland training, application, and practice. It is my experience teaching combat karate to special forces for more than 40-years, only one-in-a-hundred antagonists have a natural street-fighter’s timing, balance, confidence, and power. A loud noise (kiai — spirit breath) followed by an aggressive practiced stance may well dissuade most would-be attackers and attract helpful attention. Predators would much rather feast off the weak and defenseless, rather than take the risk of feeding from those who will fight. Even the mighty Grizzly would rather lunch on a beaver than a badger. Distance is the real denominator of personal safety. Avoid dangerous areas and exposure.

 

I’ve heard meek people say that they abhor violence and could never fight back or apply deadly force to another human being. It is written in Exodus 20:13, Thou shalt not kill. Jesus Christ further commanded (Mark 12:31) Love thy neighbor as thyself. Good people have a right to life. We have an obligation to God, to those who love and depend on us, and to ourselves, to prevent harm and injury at the hands of someone who would do you harm. By applying the appropriate level of force, we are not only saving ourselves, but saving them as well. By the way, both Yahweh and Jesus Christ were talking directly to Israelites about Israelites. I know of no free animal with a backbone that will stand still and watch their young or themselves be devoured.

 

When new Administrations begin to sag as the honeymoon wanes, Presidents declare war to regain approval and magnify their power. Daddy George H. Bush had his 100-hour blitz against Iraq’s Saddam Hussein, Clinton waged war on Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic, President "mini-me" George W. Bush has declared his own war on terrorism in the person of Osama bin Laden. I volunteered for recall to active duty during Desert Shield/Storm, and again when it was decided to invade Afghanistan. We are all enlisted when an enemy strikes our homeland. I know of an absolute certainty that no enemy of America will ever prevail against an alert, informed, determined American people. Together We Win!

Article below was posted immediately following 9/11

Tuesday morning, September 11th 2001 will live in the hearts of Americans as a vicious day of infamy – even more horrific than the December 7th 1941 sneak attack on Pearl Harbor. Without warning, suicide elements of the Islamic Jihad movement used hijacked U.S. commercial airliners as flying bombs to attack the twin World Trade Center towers in New York City and the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. The 110-story towers, plus another 47-story building, fell to the ground changing the skyline – and the course of America. Both were priority targets for Muslim extremists dedicated to punishing us (U.S.) for pro-Jewish policies and actions against Arab interests. A lesser effort was made against the State Department using a car-bomb. The unprecedented assault on America was a clear act of war by para-military planners secure in foreign Islamic enclaves. Knee-jerk U.S. Government security reactions will severely effect the lives of everyone in the USA in the days to come. This fiendish act of brutality marks September 11th as a second day of infamy for Americans, but not the last!

Many alert entities knew of, or expected, the Japanese attack on Hawaii, but it came as a devastating surprise to the people at Pearl. The NYC and D.C. attacks came as catastrophic shock, although Israeli intelligence undoubtedly knew of the details. The FBI, CIA, and this Newsletter warned you that such an assault was coming. As previously reported, Islamic acts of violence are easy to foresee. Here are some facts that govern key events of the Islamic Jihad (Holy War): Islam is the most controlling major spiritual belief on earth. It has so much influence that followers will gladly sacrifice their life to advance its goals. Muslims worldwide are pledged to support fellow-believers. Saudi millionaire Osama bin Laden (and those who support, aid and abet him) is certainly behind the detailed planning and skillful execution. No matter what sweet-words of condolence and condemnation are heard from Muslim authorities, inwardly they applaud and probably contributed to the victory for Islam. This does not mean all Muslims should be rounded up as terrorists, but it does point out a truth about the nature of the world’s second largest religion. Not all Muslims are zealots, as is the case with Christians and right-to-life advocates.

The Holy Koran should be required reading for every person who would "know the enemy." In short you should refer to Sarah’s handmaiden Hagar in Genesis 16: 11-12. Read what the angel of the Lord said to her about Abraham’s first-born Ishmael: "And the angel of the Lord said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shall bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the Lord hath heard thy affliction. And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren." Ishmael was the seed of the Arab people. Muhammad (530-632 A.D.) reportedly received the Koran verbally from the Angel Gabriel. At that time idol worshipers occupied Mecca. Muhammad needed help from Bedouin tribesmen to oust the heretics. I believe Muhammad used literary-license in rewarding those willing to give their life for Islam. The holy warrior immediately goes to heaven – described as green fields, babbling brooks and "buxomly, doe-eyed women!" The Koran is the Islamic bible and since hardened desert wildmen first bought this principle there has been no shortage of Islamic self-destruct-soldiers.

The Koran is specific that Muslims can do no more to their enemies than is done to them, but vengeance is a must. When we downed an Iranian Airbus on 3 July 1988, Islamics blew-up Pan Am 103 over Lockerbie on 21 December. The Trade Center explosion, 26 February 1993 was retaliation for the Bush coalition destruction of Iraq’s economy. The 26 June 1996 USAF barracks bomb in Saudi Arabia, the August 7th, 1998 U.S. Embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania were extensions of Muslim retribution, as was the USS Cole attack.

The perpetrators of the New York and Washington attacks were careful to select well known U.S. airlines, American and United, as kamikazes. The four aircraft were all on cross-continent flights and full of jet-fuel. The hijackers were aided by Muslim airport employees who could pre-position items which would not clear the security scanners. On-board, the terrorists waited for take-off and climb. They dispatched the pilots and used GPS to navigate to their targets. An untold story of heroism occurred when the United FL-93 crashed in a field south of Pittsburgh. Rather than allow their aircraft to be used as a weapon, those aboard must have attacked the four-terrorists causing them to crash the plane – denying them a fourth target.

The United States, more specifically, New York City and Washington, D.C., has a high concentration of influential Jews, making the two cities attractive targets. The World Trade Center is the heart of western-commerce, while the Pentagon represents the head of free-world military power. The State Department, Congress and White House are also valued targets since they employ a proliferation of pro-Israel Jews. It is my opinion the aircraft which crashed in Pennsylvania was meant to destroy the U.S. Capitol Building.

The Pentagon is best attacked at the east, River Entrance where the Secretary of Defense and Joint Chiefs of Staff are housed. Dulles Airport is northwest of D.C. – meaning it was easier for the terrorists to target the west (heliport) entrance. Barbara Olson (46) was aboard that plane. She called her U.S. Solicitor General husband and reported the terrorist used knives to commandeer the aircraft. They herded the passengers and crew into the back. She asked what she should tell the crew to do? He knew about the Trade Center, but had no answer. It was his birthday.

The 11 September attack on America was more sophisticated in concept than past make-shift bombs. What is the next step in high-dollar terrorism – use of chemical, biological, nuclear weapons? What we face next will depend on how Bush responds with military-might on Islamic targets. What we watched on 11 September could be a preview of what is to come. No question, the Jihad can afford, and may well now possess, one or more of the former USSR’s suitcase-SADAMs (Small Atomic Demolition Munitions) which have the power of 10,000-tons of TNT.
