Osama Bin Laden dead...and other political matchsticks!

This is Burma | 02.05.2011 09:37 | Energy Crisis | Globalisation | Terror War | World

The US President Barack Obama has last night issued a statement claiming US special forces have found and killed the so-called leader of a group the US has long claimed to be called Al Qaida. Al Qaida are claimed by the US to be responsible for the atrocity carried out in New York on September 11th 2001.

The US President Barack Obama has last night issued a statement claiming US special forces have found and killed the so-called leader of a group the US has long claimed to be called Al Qaida. Al Qaida are claimed by the US to be responsible for the atrocity carried out in New York on September 11th 2001.

The person killed is claimed to be male by the name of Usama Bin Laden (also Osama) who, the US is claiming, was resident in Pakistan. This man has been regularly broadcast on US TV and internet broadcasts since 2001 very often accompanied by chatter from the Central Intelligence Agency emanating from their HQ in the Pentagon and from within CIA affiliated news organisations in New York and Washington.

The claim is currently being disseminated by state controlled media in the US and UK, joined by overt and covert members of the Security and Intelligence Services posing as analysts and media commentators. Critical analysis appears to be on hold across the board at present with no detectable attempt by media corporations to challenge or properly qualify the reports being made by western intelligence sources.

It is extremely unlikely that the current narrative will be excepted in its current form and suspicions are now raised that the US and British governments have very seriously misjudged the public view of the situation, the majority view being that Al Qaida is a myth and the atrocity carried out in New York in 2001 was a prelude to a resource war for oil and gas in the Middle-East waged by Industrial Globalist's in pursuit of security of energy supply for the west and major economies of the east. A policy that continues with the current campaign being waged in Libya by Nato in order to seize the required oil resources in order to 'effect' the price of oil on the international markets. The price of oil being a serious and persistent barrier to economic growth of western economies at present.

The announcement of Bin Laden's death appears within 24 hours of the exposure of an assassination attempt by Nato against the libyan leader Khaddafi with the highly illegal bombing of Khaddafi's residence in Tripoli, certainly the result of a policy of deliberate targeting of foreign heads of state by Nato generals.

Today's announcement is certainly backed by little or no evidence with an extraordinary claim that the body of Bin Laden has been buried at sea. A claim that infers that the US is now completely dependent on US nationalists to defend on internet forums and websites globally almost certainly with the use of 'trolling', a process whereby fact that runs counter to the interests of the state is re-worked into deranged or inaccurate speculation or infantilised in order to de-legitimise widely held logic and reason. This process has been persistently in use by the US and UK state bodies throughout the declaration of the current resource wars by Republican President George Bush in 2001.

At present, unreliable state agents acting within media corporations are attempting to build the narrative that today's announcement is universally accepted in the UK and US and reaction against the announcement is isolated to Afghanistan, thereby accelerating domestic hostility to the Afghan people and bolstering domestic support for US and UK military presence there, perhaps a sign of over confidence in the recent 'unifying' symbolism enacted by the recent military/state wedding which took place in London and which is widely hoped to draw a line under seething public resentment at the persistent lying and fraudulent activities of the British Parliament over recent years.

This morning, various state agents and military actors embedded within western media corporations have attempted to claim that Al Qaida are about to 'respond' to the death of Bin Laden raising the ugly spectre of domestic western terrorism once more. It is now possible that 'elements' within the United States may once again be plotting further atrocities on its own territory or on the territory of foreign nations in order to further consolidate its now decade long resource war and undisguised and barely hidden venom against muslim races in the region.
