The Global Intelligence Files

On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

subject Was Sept.11 a Cover-up of a Financial Fraud and how does that relate

to Corzine and David Rockefeller?

mailed-by gmail.com



hide details Dec 4 (2 days ago)





While mulling over Corzine, your pension, the so called "Great Vampire Squid"

Goldman Sachs and the "spreading of democracy" in the world (that evidently

is, instead, spreading a Caliphate -Sharia law), we should connect the dots.

We should re-visit that speech by David Rockefeller at the National Press

Club. The National Press Club seemed to fully understand and agree with what

David was referring to:



"We are grateful to the Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine

and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and

respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have

been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world ifï»¿ we had been

subjected to the lights of publicity during those years.But, the world is now

more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The

supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is

surely preferable to the national auto-determination practicedï»¿ in past

centuries." - David Rockefeller



Which of our elected officials, who have sworn an oath to uphold our

Constitution, are involved in 'supranational' efforts to "march" us to a NWO?





How many 1st responders died responding to 911, how many continue to suffer

illnesses related to 911? What happened on 911?



WHY?



Will something like this happen again?



"Federal Reserve had to cover-up the clearance of $240 Billion in covert

securities", this was before 911



Was Larry Silverstein ever asked what he knew and when did he know it? Am I

wrong? I don't remember him called to testify before the 911 Commission or

congress.



Who 'happened' to be in the 'death corridor' and what were they investigating

at the time?



Must watch, you will have no doubt that this needs to be re-opened:

9/11: Explosive Evidence - Experts Speak Out, Full-length

http://youtu.be/lw-jzCfa4eQ



...and this:



"The answers to the questions surrounding the cause of the WTC attack will be

found in events during the presidency of George H.W. Bush and earlier.

Insight into the activities of that period are cloaked by the Executive Order

of George H.W. Bushâ€™s son, President George W. Bush, who on November 1,

2001 issued Executive Order 13233."



"In 1992, George H.W. Bush served on the Advisory Board of Barrick Gold. The

Barrick operation would create billions of dollars of paper gold by creating

â€˜gold derivativesâ€™. A major distribution channel for the sale of

Barrickâ€™s gold futures would be Enron."



"The records on this investigation were kept in the FBI office on the 23rd

floor of the North Tower which was destroyed by bomb blasts shortly before

the Tower collapsed."



"The Wall Street Journal reported:



"There is every reason to believe activities in the Bank of New York in

the aftermath of September 11th are worthy of suspicion..... At one point

during the week after September 11, the Bank of New York publicly reported to

be overdue on $100 billion in payments.â€



It suggests that certain key unknown figures in the Federal Reserve may have

been in collusion..."





Was September 11

a Cover-up

of a Financial Fraud?

Spanish

German

French



Russian







(The following is an attempt to present in a compact form the claims made by

Dick Eastman, Tom Flocco, V.K. Durham, Karl Schwarz and put together in an

the article by E.P. Heidner dated 28th June 2008 to the effect that the

September 11th attacks were intended to cover-up the clearing of the 1991

issuance of $240 billion in covert securities to fund an economic war against

the Soviet Union during which "unknown" western investors bought up much of

the Soviet industry. A crime presented by official sources as a "terrorist

attack" and used as an excuse to attack Iraq.)

September 11



Initially the official designation of "terrorist attacks" made it difficult

to discern a pattern. However if the destruction of the World Trade Centre, a

segment of the Pentagon, four commercial aircraft and the loss of 2,993 lives

is not considered as a "terrorist attack" but rather as a crime with specific

objectives, there is a compelling logic to the pattern of destruction, not

only of the buildings but of specific offices within each building.



If the attack on the Office of Naval Intelligence in the Pentagon was not

random it is reasonable to assume that the planes that hit the World Trade

Centre, and the bombs reported by various witnesses to have been set off

inside the buildings 1, 6, 7, the basement of the Towers, the vault in the

basement of the World Trade Centre were also deliberately targeted. Why? What

was it that linked these targets? The destruction of the contents of the

basement of the World Trade Centre - less than a billion in gold, but

hundreds of billions of dollars of government securities? In addition why

were specific brokers from the major government security brokerages in the

Twin Towers eliminated? To create chaos in the government securities market?

To create a situation wherein $240 billion dollars of covert securities could

be electronically â€œclearedâ€ without anyone asking questions? Which

happened when the Federal Reserve declared an emergency and invoked its

â€œemergency powersâ€ that afternoon.



There were three major securities brokers in the World Trade Center: Cantor

Fitzgerald, Eurobrokers and Garbon Inter Capital. On the morning of September

11, Flight 11 hit the North Tower at 8:46 right below the floors on which

Cantor Fitzgerald was situated. Cantor Fitzgerald as the largest securities

dealer in the US was probably the primary target. Shortly thereafter a

massive explosion went off under the FBI offices in the North Tower on the

23rd floor, Garbon Inter Capital on the 25th floor, and in the basement of

Tower 1. The explosion caused the 22nd through 25th floors above to collapse

into an inferno. Fires were reported on the 22nd floor at 8:47. Shortly,

thereafter, at 9:03, Flight 175 hit the South Tower right below the floors on

which Euro Brokers was situated. In all three cases, the explosive, fiery

destruction consumed the offices in the several floors above. At 9:37 Flight

77 hit the Pentagon, targeting one of the few offices that had been moved in

the newly remodeled section of the Pentagon: the Office of Naval

Intelligence, which had been investigating the financial transactions linked

to the securities being managed by those security dealers in the World Trade

Center that were targeted. 41% of the fatalities in the Twin Towers came from

two companies that managed U.S. government securities: Cantor Fitzgerald and

Eurobrokers. 31% of the 125 fatalities in the Pentagon were from the Naval

Command Center that housed the Office of Naval Intelligence. 39 of 40 Office

of Naval Intelligence employees died. In the vaults beneath the World Trade

Center Towers, any certificates for bonds were destroyed.



Building 7 was evacuated somewhere between 9:00 and 9:30. Fires and

explosions spontaneously began at multiple locations inside the building

prior to the collapse of either Tower. This observation contradicts the

official explanation that the fire started when objects from the collapsing

towers caused the fires to ignite. The Building ultimately was destroyed in

what many unofficial observers now believe was a controlled demolition.

Building Seven housed several agencies critical to investigation of financial

crimes.



In the midst of all this, Building 6 was destroyed by explosions from within.

Building 6 was home to the U.S. Customs agency and the El Dorado Task force,

which was responsible for coordinating all major money-laundering

investigations in the U.S. In the immediate aftermath of September 11, these

groups would be redirected to investigate terrorist financing.



The Office of Naval Intelligence in the Pentagon, which sustained a direct

hit from an airliner that day, was without a doubt, a target pinpointed for

destruction. The attacking aircraft went through intricate manoeuvres in

order to hit the west side of the Pentagon, The flight path approach shows

that the attacking aircraft passed almost directly over the White House,

bypassing what should be considered a primary target for a "terrorist attack"

instead of a supposedly empty section of the Pentagon. The planes that hit

the South Tower also manoeuvered in the last moments to hit their exact

target.



On the same day, (September 11) the Securities and Exchange Commission

declared a national emergency and for the first time in U.S. history invoked

its emergency powers under Securities Exchange Act Section 12(k) and eased

regulatory restrictions for clearing and settling security trades for the

next 15 days. These changes would allow an estimated $240 billion in covert

government securities to be cleared upon maturity (September 12th) without

the standard regulatory controls around identification of ownership.



While most media reports defer to the U.S. government contention that Osama

Bin Laden was behind these attacks, foreign media provided reports suggesting

that the â€œreal powerâ€ behind Al Qaeda was unknown. As shall be seen, the

financial power behind the attack is the same power that created these

securities, and the same power as that which founded Al Qaeda.

The Background



In order to understand why the ongoing Federal investigations into the crimes

funded by those securities needed to be ended or disrupted by destroying

evidence in Buildings 6, 7 and 1, it is necessary to understand how the $240

billion in covert, and possibly illegal government funding, could have been

created in September 1991 and also to know the background of 50 years of

history of key financial organizations in the United States, where U.S.

Intelligence became a key source of their off-balance sheet accounts.



The covert securities used to accomplish the original national security

objective had ended up in the vaults of the brokers in the World Trade

Centre, were destroyed on September 11, 2001, the day before they came due

for settlement and clearing. Either a key group of senior National Security

officials, who had participated in the victory of the economic cold war in

1991, considered the deaths and destruction as â€˜collateral" damage to hide

the existence of the covert activities or the destruction constituted a

cover-up of continued lawlessness by a fraternity or brotherhood of

businessmen and criminals that has remained in the shadows ever since.

The Origins of the World Trade Centre Attack



Most historians track the history of September 11th to 1998 when Osama Bin

Laden declared a fatwa or jihad against the U.S., and the terrorist

â€œHamburg Groupâ€ led by Mohammed Atta reportedly â€œofferedâ€ itâ€™s

services to Al Qaeda. However, the history which defines the motives for the

September 11 attacks goes much further back. The answers to the questions

surrounding the cause of the WTC attack will be found in events during the

presidency of George H.W. Bush and earlier. Insight into the activities of

that period are cloaked by the Executive Order of George H.W. Bushâ€™s son,

President George W. Bush, who on November 1, 2001 issued Executive Order

13233. As a result public records which might have shed light on the

activities of 1990 and 1991 remain shielded from public access. Consequently

the reconstruction of events from the late 1980s and early 1990s is based on

news reports, books and articles.



What the public record suggests is that with the beginning of the first Bush

Presidency in 1989, George H.W. Bush initiated a programme of covert economic

warfare to bring about the collapse of the Soviet Union. The name of this

programme appears to be Project Hammer - a multi-billion dollar covert

operation, whose investments remain shielded.



There is reason to believe that the plan was initially formulated by

Reaganâ€™s CIA Director, William Casey. Many of the programme operatives were

probably engaged through official CIA and National Security channels.

However, as a result of the experience gained by the Bush cabinet and its

private sector counterparts during the secretive Iran-Contra and Ferdinand

Marcos gold operations, the execution of that programme would be accompanied

by a new assumption that the use of covert and illegal funding for a policy

not approved by Congress would remain acceptable.

The Source of the Funds



Numerous sources have documented that at the end of World War II, the

treasury of the Japanese Empire was discovered in the Philippines by Edward

Lansdale a member of the staff of General Charles Willoughby, who was General

MacArthurâ€™s chief of Intelligence. Lansdale and Severino Garcia Diaz Santa

Romana tortured Major Kojima Kashii, General Yamashita Tomoyukiâ€™s driver,

until he revealed the sites of the gold. Then known as the "Golden Lily

Treasure", this mass of wealth had been accumulated by the Japanese over

fifty years from the pillaging of Southeast Asia and China by its army and

had been deposited in the Philippines due to the U.S. submarine blockade of

Japan. Reports vary, but documents in the public domain suggest the recovered

treasure was in excess of 280,000 metric tonnes of gold.



Lansdale briefed Assistant Secretary of War John J. McCloy about the

findings, and a U.S. Cabinet-level decision was made to confiscate the gold

and cover-up its discovery. The gold would be added to the Black Eagle Trust

fund which took its name from the Nazi Black Eagle stamped on the gold bars

confiscated from the Reich and was the original source of funding for the

trust. Over the years, the significance of the Nazi gold would pale in

comparison to the confiscated Japanese treasure. As the fund grew, it was

distributed in private accounts across the globe in over 100 banks, and

administered by General Earle Cocke.



Lansdale and Santa Romana were made responsible for recovery of the treasure.

They fabricated a â€œCommunist Revolutionâ€ by the Hukbalahak rebels in

order to confiscate the land where much of the gold was buried, and proceeded

to mine it.



The Yamashita gold would become the cornerstone of the Black Eagle Fund, from

which many covert operations of the U.S. intelligence would be funded. Under

international law the gold should have been either returned to the countries

from which it was stolen (as was done with the Nazi gold), or should have

been incorporated into the U.S. Treasury. The U.S. Governmentâ€™s continued

efforts to stifle news on this matter provides prima facie evidence that the

confiscation of this gold was illegal.



The men responsible for initiating and executing the confiscation of Nazi and

Japanese treasury gold represent the most senior Intelligence officers in the

U.S. and Britain at the end of World War II, and the Cabinet of the President

of the United States. The financial institutions represented by these

individuals would become the major financial banks in the world, along with

the Swiss-German banks where they hid their gold.



Lansdaleâ€™s operation in the Philippines gave birth to most of the common

features of modern covert operations for the U.S.Intelligence and initiated a

bond between the US intelligence organizations and the Israeli intelligence.

He also set precedents for the Intelligence community to retain the services

of organized crime on U.S. soil and to use drug running as a way of financing

activities,



The covert operations funded by the Black Eagle Trust in the 1960s and 1970s

became visible stains on the global image of the U.S. despite all efforts to

keep them under cover. In an effort to clean house, President Jimmy Carter

would order the retirement of over 800 covert operatives. Many of these

operatives would move into private consulting and security firms and be

employed as subcontractors for covert operations. Thus began a loose

association of private operatives that would be referred to as â€œthe

Enterpriseâ€ in the years to come. George H.W. Bush, having been CIA

Director, had many acquaintances in this group, and would work with them to

restore their influence and control over U.S. foreign policy and the foreign

investment opportunities it created for their benefit.



Meantime Ferdinand Marcos, the pro-U.S. dictator of the Philippines,

continued to discover even more of the buried treasure. and had started to

sell it on the market during the 1970s with the assistance of Adnan

Khashoggi. US Intelligence operations had been siphoning off the gold for

three decades. However in 1986 Vice President George Bush took over the gold

from Marcos and the gold was removed to a series of banks, notably Citibank,

Chase Manhattan, Hong Kong Shanghai Banking Corporation, UBS and Bankerâ€™s

Trust, and held in a depository in Kloten Switzerland. What happened to the

Marcos gold after it was confiscated by U.S. agents in 1986 has never been

reported, but throughout the early 1990s, the world gold market would be

befuddled by the mysterious appearance of thousands of tonnes of gold which

appeared to suppress the price of gold.



In South east Asia operations were financed through Nugan Hand Bank in

Australia which would be one of the many banks used for transferring the

Marcos gold from the Philippines into covert operations. Frank Nuganâ€™s

family ran the primary supply shipping operation between the U.S. Navy base

in the Philippines and Australia. Frank Nugan's business partner, Peter

Abeles, and Henry Keswick, together with Canadian businessman Peter Munk,

would link with Adnan Kashoggi, Sheikh Kamal and Edgar Bronfmann in a series

of operations which ultimately would evolve into Barrick Gold.



In 1992, George H.W. Bush served on the Advisory Board of Barrick Gold. The

Barrick operation would create billions of dollars of paper gold by creating

â€˜gold derivativesâ€™. A major distribution channel for the sale of

Barrickâ€™s gold futures would be Enron. Enron would also become the vehicle

by which oil and gas contracts from the former Soviet Union (vehicles for

Soviet money-laundering) were processed. Barrick, which has no mining

operations in Europe, used two refineries in Switzerland: MKS Finance S.A.

and Argor-Heraeus S.A. â€“ both on the Italian border near Milan, a few hours

away from the gold depository in Zurich. The question that Barrick and other

banks needed to avoid answering is: what gold was Barrick refining in

Switzerland, as they have no mines in that region?



Barrick would become a quiet gold producing partner for a number of major

banks, and its activities became subject to an FBI investigation into

gold-price-fixing. The records on this investigation were kept in the FBI

office on the 23rd floor of the North Tower which was destroyed by bomb

blasts shortly before the Tower collapsed. The ultimate destination of the

"Golden Lily Treasure", and the source of the â€˜loanedâ€™ gold that flooded

the market for 10 years has never been officially explained.



The records of many of those transactions disappeared when Enron collapsed

and the trading operation and all its records were taken over by UBS, another

major recipient of Marcos gold. The FBI was reportedly conducting an

investigation into those transactions, and the investigation files were kept

on the 23rd floor of the North Tower of the WTC. A review of the personal

accounts of September 11 now suggests that office was deliberately targeted

with explosives prior to the collapse of the WTC.



Another key player in the Marcos gold was Bankerâ€™s Trust, which was taken

over by Alex Brown & Sons, after Bankerâ€™s Trust floundered financially on

its Russian loans in the mid 1990s. These Russian loans were facilitated by

Enron, starting in August of 1993, and very possibly were part of the Project

Hammer takeover of Soviet industry.



Amongst those brought into the picture by the involvement of Alex Brown was

J. Carter Beese who was Executive Director of the CIA at the time of

September 11. He was appointed by George H.W. Bush to the board of directors

of the Overseas Private Investment Corporation in 1992. Since 1992, OPIC has

provided more than $4.5 billion in finance and insurance to more than 140

projects in Russia. He was also Chairman of Riggs Bank and also President of

Riggs Capital Partners. Riggs controlled the famous Riggs-Valmet consultants

who set up the international financial apparatus for the Russian oligarchs

and rogue KGB allowing them to steal the Soviet treasury and destroy the

Russian economy. Carter Beeseâ€™s death was reported as a suicide in 2006.



It appears that in September 1991, George H.W. Bush and Alan Greenspan did

indeed finance $240 billion in bonds in a buy-out of the Soviet Union as part

of a broader programme to attack the economy of the Soviet Union. In addition

President George H.W. Bush had initiated a number of related covert

operations to take over certain sectors of the Soviet economy,



The covert business dealings with the Iranians and Israelis which originated

with Kashoggi and Kimche in July 1980 in Hamburg under the October Surprise

arrangement, would provide an opening to the Soviet KGB that would allow the

U.S. to fund a coup against Gorbachev in 1991. It would grow into a larger

covert operation over the years, and be overshadowed by the larger

Iran-Contra operation. Members of Bushâ€™s covert intelligence cadre sold

weapons to Iran, an avowed enemy of the U.S., and illegally used the profits

to continue funding anti-Communist rebels, the Contras, in Nicaragua.



The entire Iran-Contra operation almost fell apart in 1986 and became public

when the Nicaraguan government shot down a U.S. plane carrying weapons to the

Contra rebels However the Iran-Contra team continued to violate the law even

while being investigated by Congress.



Emboldened by the lack of consequences for subverting the U.S. constitution

and breaking international law during the Iran-Contra scandal, the Bush

administration group known as â€œthe Vulcansâ€ planned a bigger drive to

crush Soviet Russia.



The programme also seems to have lined the pockets of the individuals that

executed this policy, at US taxpayer expense. This was done to the tune of

the $240 billion dollars in covert and allegedly illegal bonds, which appear

to have been replaced with Treasury notes backed by U.S. taxpayers in the

aftermath of September 11.

The Vulcanâ€™s Covert Economic War on the Soviet Union



In 1988, Riggs Bank, under the direction of Jonathan Bush and J Carter Beese,

would purchase controlling interest in a Swiss company named Valmet. In early

1989, the new subsidiary of Riggs called Riggs-Valmet would initiate contact

with a group of KGB officers and their front-men to start setting up an

international network for moving money out of the former Soviet block

countries.



In the first phase of the economic attack on the Soviet Union, George Bush

authorized Leo Wanta and others to destabilize the ruble and facilitate the

theft of the Soviet/Russian treasury. This would result in draining the

Russian treasury of between 2,000 to 3,000 tonnes of gold bullion, ($35

billion at the time). This step would prevent a monetary defence of the ruble

and thus destabilize the currency. The gold was â€˜stolenâ€™ in March of

1991, facilitated by Leo Wanta and signed off by Boris Yeltsinâ€™s right hand

man. The majority of the leaked reports from the CIA and FBI suggest the

theft of the Russian treasury was a KGB and Communist party operation, but

what those reports omitted was the extensive involvement of Boris Yeltsin,

the U.S. CIA and the U.S. banking industry.



In November 1989 George H.W. Bush appears to have arranged for Alton G. Keel

Jr, a minor player in the Iran-Contra scandal to go to work at Riggs Bank,

which would become the controlling owner of a small Swiss bank operation

known as Valmet. The Riggs-Valmet operation, would become the

â€˜consultantsâ€™ to the World Bank and to several KGB front operations run

by future Russian oligarchs Khordokovsky, Konanykhine, Berezovsky and

Abromovich. These soon-to-be Russian oligarchs had been set-up as front men

by KGB Generals Aleksey (Alexei) Kondaurov; and Fillipp Bobkov, who

previously reported to Victor Cherbrikov, who worked with Robert Maxwell, a

British financial mogul, an Israeli secret service agent, and a

representative of U.S. intelligence interests, who had been introduced to

George Bush in 1976 by Senator Tower for the sole purpose of using Maxwell as

an intermediary between Bush and the Soviet Intelligence. Maxwell assisted

Cherbrikov in selling military weaponry to Iran and the Nicaraguan Contras

during the course of the Iran Contra deals, and made hundreds of millions of

dollars available to Cherbrikovâ€™s Russian banks. These two would bring a

previously unknown politician and construction foreman named Boris Yeltsin

from the hinterlands of Russia to the forefront of Russian politics through

providing 50% of Yeltsinâ€™s campaign funding.



In the second phase, there were two major operations: the largest was

coordinated by Alan Greenspan, Oliver North, and implemented by Leo Wanta.

George Soros and a group of Bush appointees who began to destabilize the

ruble. They are accused of fronting $240 billion in covert securities to

support the various aspects of this plan.These bonds were created (in part or

in whole) from a secretive Durham Trust, managed by ex-OSS/CIA officer,

Colonel Russell Hermann. This war chest had been created with the Marcos

gold.



Shortly before the attempted coup of 1991, Maxwell met Kruchkov on

Maxwellâ€™s private yacht. Shortly afterwards, Maxwell died mysteriously on

his yacht while Senator Tower died in a plane crash under suspicious

circumstances in April of 1991.



In the meantime, Riggs Bank was quickly solidifying banking relations with

two of the old Iran-Contra scandal participants: Swiss bankers Bruce

Rappaport, and Alfred Hartmann. Through this group George Soros opened a

second front assault on the ruble. It is at this stage of the operation that

three more groups would be brought into the plan by Rappaport and Hartmann:

The Russian Mafiya, the Israeli Mossad, and the Rothschild family interests

represented by Jacob Rothschild.



Soros and Rappaport would ensure that the Rothschild financial interests

would be the silent backers for a number of the undisclosed deals. The

Rothschild interests would also be seen on the board of directors of Barrick

Gold.



In the fourth phase of the secret war, the Enterprise worked on several

fronts to take over key energy industries. On the Caspian front of this

economic war, James Giffen was sent to Kazakhstan to work with President

Nazarbayev in various legal and illegal efforts to gain control of what was

estimated to be the worldâ€™s largest untapped oil reserves - Kazak oil in

the Caspian. The illegal flow of money from the various oil companies would

reach a number of banks. These same oil interests would engage March Rich and

the Israeli Eisenberg Group, owned by one of the Mossadâ€™s key operatives,

Shaul Eisenberg, to move the oil. (The Eisenberg Group would at some point

own almost 50% of Zim Shipping, which mysteriously and inexplicably moved out

of the World Trade Center a few weeks before the September 11 attacks.)



Like the other events linked with Project Hammer, the coup was all about the

money. The coup began the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the beginning

of the reign of Boris Yeltsin and his â€˜familyâ€™ of Russian Mafiya

Oligarchs, and President Nursultan Nazarbayev of Kazakhstan. In the final

phase, a series of operatives assigned by President George H.W. Bush would

begin the takeover of prized Russian and CIS industrial assets in oil, metals

and defence. This was done by financing and managing the money-laundering for

the Russian oligarchs through the Bank of New York, AEB and Riggs Bank.



A closer look at other activities leading up to these phases makes it clear

that is was a U.S. orchestrated intelligence effort from the beginning. The

economic war involved Gerald Corrigan of the NY Federal Reserve Bank, George

Soros, an international currency speculator who was responsible for crashing

the British pound a few years earlier, former Ambassador to Germany R. Mark

Palmer, and Ronald Lauder-financier and heir to the Estee Lauder estate.

Palmer and Lauder would lead a group of American investors in an Operation

called the Central European Development Corporation, and combine forces with

George Soros and the NM Rothschild Continuation Trust. This group ending up

controlling Gazprom, the Russian natural gas giant, while the Riggs group

ended up controlling Yukos, the oil giant. Ownership for both remains largely

â€˜hiddenâ€™ today, while its front men endure the hardships of the Russian

wrath by spending time in prison.



Meanwhile, across the Caspian Sea, Bush had assigned a wide array of former

Iran-Contra operatives to take a role in Azerbaijan. Initially, he sent in

the covert operatives Richard Armitage and Richard Secord who worked with

their old colleague from the Mossad, David Kimche, and their old arms running

colleagues Adnan Kashoggi and Farhad Azima to hire, transport, and train

several thousand Al Qaeda mercenaries to fight on behalf of the Azeri freedom

fighters! Osama Bin Laden was reported to have been part of this mercenary

force.

The September 11th Cover-up of the Black Eagle Trust and Project Hammer



Ten years later in 2001, these programmes had finally come back to haunt the

U.S. policy makers. Most, if not all of these programmes appear to have

stepped outside of the boundaries of the law. As a result, investigative

agencies from Britain, Switzerland, Russia, Kazakhstan and the Philippines

were putting pressure on Congress and the U.S. Department of Justice to open

up the accounts in the banks used to finance these covert activities.

Pressure was being put on the Swiss banking cartel to open its bullion

records to public scrutiny. Full disclosure by these banks during an

investigation would have resulted in a major exposure of U.S. Government

complicity in some of the greatest financial frauds of the 1980s and early

1990s as well as 50 years of gold bullion theft by numerous U.S. and British

government agencies. Moreover, investigation into these accounts would

disclose a National Security secret known as the Black Eagle fund, and

virtually every covert operation since World War II. Bringing an end to these

investigations and preventing this disclosure was the sole objective for the

destruction of the WTC and Pentagon.



These investigative and legal pressures began to accumulate in 1997, and in

February 1998, Osama Bin Laden declared his fatwa, and Atta started planning

the September 11 attacks.



With the bonds out in the market, they had sat for ten years, like a ticking

time bomb. At some point, they had to be settled - or cashed in, on September

12, 2001. The two firms in the U.S. most likely to be handling them would be

Cantor Fitzgerald and Eurobrokers â€“ the two largest government securities

firms in the U.S. The federal agency mostly involved in investigating those

transactions was the Office of Naval Intelligence. On September 11 those same

three organizations: the two largest government securities brokers and the

Office of Naval Intelligence in the US took near direct hits.



What happened inside the buildings of the World Trade on September 11 is

difficult, but not impossible to discern. The government has put a seal on

the testimony gathered by the investigating 911 Commission, and instructed

government employees to not speak on the matter or suffer severe penalties,

but there are a number of personal testimonies posted on the internet as to

what happened in those buildings that day. Careful reconstruction from those

testimonies indicates the deliberate destruction of evidence not only by a

targeted assault on the buildings, but also by targeted fires and explosions.

In the event that either the hijacking failed, or the buildings were not

brought down, the evidence would be destroyed by fires.



Even more revealing would be the actions of the Federal Reserve Bank and the

Securities and Exchange Commission on that day, and in the immediate

aftermath. As one of many coincidences on September 11, the Federal Reserve

Bank was operating its information system from its remote back-up site rather

than itâ€™s downtown headquarters. The SEC and Federal Reserve system

remained unfazed by the attack on September 11. All of their systems

continued to operate. The two major security trading firms had their trade

data backed up on remote systems. Nevertheless, the Commission for the first

time invoked its emergency powers under Securities Exchange Act Section 12(k)

and issued several orders to ease certain regulatory restrictions

temporarily.



On the first day of the crisis, the SEC lifted â€œRule 15c3-3 -Customer

Protection--Reserves and Custody of Securities,â€ which set trading rules

for the certain processes. Simply GSCC was allowed to substitute securities

for the physical securities destroyed during the attack.



Subsequent to that ruling, the GSCC issued another memo expanding blind

broker settlements. A â€œblind brokerâ€ is a mechanism for inter-dealer

transactions that maintains the anonymity of both parties to the trade. The

broker serves as the agent to the principals' transactions.



Thus the Federal Reserve and its GSCC had created a settlement environment

totally void of controls and reporting â€“ where it could substitute valid,

new government securities for the mature, illegal securities, and not have to

record where the bad securities came from, or where the new securities went

â€“ all because the paper for the primary brokers for US securities had been

eliminated.



This act alone, however was inadequate to resolve the problem, because the

Federal Reserve did not have enough â€œtakersâ€ of the new 10 year notes.

Rather than simply having to match buy and sell orders, which was the essence

of resolving the â€œfailâ€ problem, it appears the Fed was doing more than

just matching and balancing â€“ it was pushing new notes on the market with a

special auction.



If the Federal Reserve had to cover-up the clearance of $240 Billion in

covert securities, they could not let the volume of capital shrink by that

much in the time of a monetary crisis. They would have had to push excess

liquidity into the market, and then phase it out for a soft landing, which is

exactly what appears to have happened. In about two months, the money supply

was back to where it was prior to 9/11.



It was the rapid rotation of the securities settlement fails in the aftermath

of September 11th that appears to have allowed the Bank of New York and the

Federal Reserve to engage in a securities refinancing that resulted in the

American taxpayer refinancing the $240 billion originally used for the Great

Ruble Scam.



The reports published by the Federal Reserve argue that the Federal

Reserveâ€™s actions increasing the monetary supply by over $300 billion were

justified to overcome operational difficulties in the financial sector.



What appears to be the case is that the Federal Reserve imbalances reported

on three consecutive days in the aftermath were largely concentrated at the

Bank of New York, which is reported to represent over 90% of the imbalance,

suggesting the Bank had been the recipient of massive fund transfers, and

unable to send out transfers.This supposedly was due to major communication

and system failures.In fact, none of the Bank of New York's systems failed or

went non-operational.



The Wall Street Journal reported:



"There is every reason to believe activities in the Bank of New York in

the aftermath of September 11th are worthy of suspicion..... At one point

during the week after September 11, the Bank of New York publicly reported to

be overdue on $100 billion in payments.â€



It suggests that certain key unknown figures in the Federal Reserve may have

been in collusion with key unknown figures at the Bank of New York to create

a situation where $240 billion in off balance sheet securities created in

1991 as part of an official covert operation to overthrow the Soviet Union,

could be cleared without publicly acknowledging their existence.These

securities, originally managed by Cantor Fitzgerald, were cleared and settled

in the aftermath of September 11th through the Bank of New York. The $100

billion account balance bubble reported by the Wall Street Journal as being

experienced by the Bank of New York was the tip of a three-day operation,

when these securities were moved from off-balance-sheet to the balance sheet.



The above gives an idea of the intricate activities both to perpetrate and

then to cover the crime, which was then used under its "terrorist attack"

label as an excuse for the attack on Iraq.



(The above answers the question "Why 9/11?". For how it was done.
