Blair - Another Lie Un-covered

Mise | 19.04.2005 20:00 | Analysis | Indymedia | Social Struggles | London | World

On Novermber 14 2001 Tony Blair told Parliament about an Al-Queda tape, made on Oct the 20th by Osama Bin Ladin for distribution among his associates.

""In an unbroadcast video tape made last month, Osama bin Laden declares that his al Qaeda network "instigated" the Sept. 11 attacks, the British government said today, and explains that "if avenging the killing of our people is terrorism, let history be a witness that we are terrorists.""


""In an unbroadcast video tape made last month, Osama bin Laden declares that his al Qaeda network "instigated" the Sept. 11 attacks, the British government said today, and explains that "if avenging the killing of our people is terrorism, let history be a witness that we are terrorists."

"""Bin Laden made the video on Oct. 20 for distribution among al Qaeda members, Prime Minister Tony Blair said today in an address to Parliament. On the tape, a British government document says, an interviewer asks bin Laden about the attacks on New York and Washington, and the Saudi replies: "It is what we instigated, for a while, in self-defense. And it was revenge for our people killed in Palestine and Iraq.""""


"""Bush and Blair . . . don't understand any language but the language of force," bin Laden goes on, according to Blair. "Every time they kill us, we will kill them, so the balance of terror can be achieved.""""

The British government did not release the video or a full transcript, saying it does not have a copy of the video but has information about it from intelligence sources.

Blair cited the video as he set out the case against bin Laden in a speech to the British Parliament. Expanding on a previous summary of evidence that he issued on Oct. 4, he declared that "there is no doubt whatever of the guilt of bin Laden and his associates."

While bin Laden's involvement in the Sept. 11 attacks has not been widely questioned in the United States, there is an undercurrent of opinion among many Muslims that the multi-millionaire Saudi may have been set up as a scapegoat by Washington and London.

In his Oct. 4 statement, he said that Western governments have proof that bin Laden indicated shortly before Sept. 11 that he was preparing "a major attack on America," that he ordered close associates around the world to return to Afghanistan by Sept. 10, and that one of his top lieutenants admitted the bin Laden organization was responsible for the suicide attacks.

British officials have given few details on how such information was obtained, generally attributing it to intelligence sources.

According to Blair, bin Laden in the new video describes the Sept. 11 attacks as "good terrorism."

"The bad terror is what America and Israel are practicing against our people," bin Laden is quoted as saying. "What we are practicing is the good terror that will stop them doing what they are doing."

"The battle has been moved inside America," he says, "and we shall continue until we win this battle, or die in the cause and meet our maker."

In making his case today, Blair also said that intelligence sources have now linked a majority of the 19 men identified as Sept. 11 hijackers with al Qaeda. In his Oct. 4 statement, Blair had said there were clear connections with "at least three" of the hijackers. [ 7 still alive BTW]

A British government statement released today also said that a senior bin Laden associate has admitted since Oct. 4 to have trained some of the hijackers in Afghanistan.

""""London's Sunday Telegraph newspaper also cited the new bin Laden video in this week's edition, saying that bin Laden used the tape to justify killing the victims in the World Trade Center.""""

"The twin towers were legitimate targets, they were supporting US economic power," the newspaper quotes bin Laden as saying. "What was destroyed were not only the towers, but the towers of morale in that country. The towers were supposed to be filled with supporters of the economical powers of the United States who are abusing the world. We are treating them like they treated us."

***************WHERE IS THE VIDEO BLAIR?**************

This was ONE MONTH before US Forces "allegedly" also miraculously found the fake bin Ladin Tape conveniently left behind in a Kabul Afghanistan.
