Recent attacks: a gift/slap from old friends?

Domiphen Bromide | 02.07.2007 17:18 | Terror War

The latest news on the Glasgow Airport suspects is that one is Jordanian and the other is Iraqi. The Jordanian connection could prove to be quite embarrassing or useful depending how it plays out or is exploited.

Things could be about to get very strange in the investigations into the recent bungled bombings it transpires that one suspect is apparently Jordanian:

If a Jordanian al Qaeda link is established/fabricated (and given the sloppiness of the attacks the involvement of real al Qaeda commander would be difficult to believe), it will likely point to this guy:

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omar_Bakri_Mohammed

He was closely tied to the Al-Muhajiroun and the so-called Finsbury Park al Qaeda cell and is believed by some journalists to have been brought to the UK by Hm Gvt. with the explicit task of recruiting mujahadin for the Balkans. He was a cohort of Abu Hamzu and Aswat- all three are believed to be the real brains/fixers behind 7/7. There is indecision whether or not, as with his close colleagues, his role was double agent or flat out MI5/6/CIA asset.

After 7/7 there seems to have been a bit of a fall out of sorts, but the backlash was rather half-hearted if not downright suspicious.

In the course of Operation Crevice he was allowed to skip the country and his re-entry from Jordan was blocked. Aswat was also conveniently unobtainable and Blair seemingly blanked an offer of extradition when the US picked him up. Abu Hamza was prosecuted under newly cooked up "religious hatred", the theory being, so as to avoid terrorism charges that could have brought to light his relationship with the intelligence community.

Make of it what you will, but a Jordanian angle to this will be controversial.

The US Knew A Fortnight Ago

02.07.2007 17:54

Various articles here were hidden by IM admins that claimed the US knew two weeks in advance that a terrorist attack was planned at Glasgow Airport but they didn't inform the UK. I don't blame the admins for hiding those articles as they seemed unbelievable, but they have now been reported on BBC Scotland, ABC and in the Telegraph.

This throws the case wide open. This was known about a fortnight ago and nothing was done. It is reminiscent of the month of warning about Lockerbie that were kept hidden from the British public. If this doesn't indicate culpability then it does show criminal negligence by the authorities.

Like I said, I don't blame the IM admins for hiding the original posts as they seemed so unbelievable, but I would ask you lot to bear in mind that these are extraordinary times. If you can repost the original IM article then I'd appreciate it, if you can't, then I think you should be a tad more circumspect in the coming weeks about what is hidden.

To be fair, just because the UK was warned two weeks ago, and by the preponderance of this story I assume it is also on the intel community newswires and thereby credible, doesn't mean to say they had enough information to know who to watch.

Without anything more specific, that story is going nowhere.

I would like to stress that even the connections mentioned above are no clear proof of inside jobs. Any role in 7/7 by these people could equally be so-called blowback/betrayal. That could only be ascertained through a real, independent inquiry.

Given the amount of journalistic and academic material indicating the Finsbury Park Mosque's relationship to the dirty war in the Balkans, we do have to start wondering what exactly Blair was hiding by blocking such an inquiry. At the very least the fact that MI5/6 was employing these terrorists to circumvent UN resolutions.

Until an inquiry is given free access to documents and witnesses, no one will ever know for sure, either way. One thing is for sure, they seem to have something highly illegal worth hiding despite being such obvious liars.

Even if 7/7 and recent events weren't inside jobs, the fact the UK has been sponsoring terrorism abroad alone is illegal enough to see scores of people behind bars, if someone was actually able to gather the evidence, build the case and present it to a court that couldn't be undermined by the Attorney General.

"Jordanian angle"

02.07.2007 18:52

What a strange post - according to the mainstream media we're looking at a Jordanian of Palestinian origin who was arrested on a motorway with his wife. The OP seems to have jumped several steps, as the guy hasn't been charged, let alone convicted.

Whilst radio 4 is rabbiting on about a controlled explosion at a hospital in Paisley, Debka reckons there wasn't any explosive material in the car.

Danny - there was no "original IM article" - it was a straight repost from ynet.

Now Debka is saying that the Amerikkans were taken by surprise as they didn't expect Glasgow to be a target.

The fact that this information has started creeping all over the media is of potential significance itself.

The Jordan connection speaks for itself and would be of great significance if a link was established either honestly or dishonestly, for all sorts of reasons. It could be exploited and abused in a million ways. Where the original suggestion of home-grown terrorists is of limited use.

It is going to be difficult to shut some terrorism experts up on the subject of Bakri if the angle takes off, and the government will be in high spin cycle to deflect the fact they effectively refused to arrest the guy.

But as you rightly say, they could end up just letting him go. Either way, as the Bakri story proves, it will be no indication of innocence or guilt if he isn't charged.

Okay, no one spotted the erm intentional error then: Bakri was left stranded by the Home Office in the Lebanon, not Jordan. Hamza however is wanted on terrorism charges in Jordan. The two were close, so it wouldn't stop the spin machine drawing a line- whether there is any real connection or not

And let's face it, any Middle East connection/smear could be useful to your average warmongering imperialist at the moment.

a friendly face at last

03.07.2007 17:41

Jeez, emigre, okay, I've never seen your face but I'd still count it as friendly. Friendlier than the fucks I used to support who have proven themselves to be fascist here in the past few days.

Here is one link to the arson attack:

There are many others, just search on Bathgate and Mosque on googlenews.

Scotland is now at war. I suppose it always was but I personally am at war and doubt I'l ever meet you now. I had a few positive plans but I hope everyone I was helping can understand, this really is war. Those who sow violence will reap the same crop.

Sorry for the siege mentality, it comes from being under seige.
