Obama Declares Afghan War ‘Absolutely Essential’ Insists America Will Never Abandon Conflict

By Jason Ditz | March 28, 2010

Underscoring his administration’s commitment to continue the already eight and a half year long occupation of Afghanistan, President Barack Obama made a surprise visit today and delivered a speech declaring the war ‘absolutely essential.’

Citing 9/11, President Obama insisted that continuing the conflict makes all Americans safer, and assured the troops that “everyone” knows the importance of the continued occupation of the landlocked nation.

He also threw water on the notion that the war might come to an end any time soon, saying “the United States of America does not quit once we start on something.” He reiterated his confidence that the US would ultimately prevail.

But despite pledging to give the troops a clear mission and a clear goal, and insisting that they would “get the job done,” he didn’t make it at all clear what exactly this job was. His only hint at any mission beyond endless conflict was a reference to al-Qaeda in the region, though administration officials have repeatedly conceded that there are virtually no al-Qaeda members left in Afghanistan, and have not been in some time. Yet momentum and a sufficiently hawkish administration suggests the conflict will continue to find enemies wherever it can and continue indefinitely.

Global National Intelligence Services Confirm Israel Did 9/11 Says Former UN Diplomat and Defense Contractor

Gordon Duff is the senior editor of Veteranstoday.com, a former UN diplomat, a defense contractor, and a global political and economic advisor. He just returned from a trip to Pakistan. Duff was interviewed by Mark McGrath and Phil Cooke on "The Ugly Truth" Radio Program yesterday (03-24-10). Half of Mr. Duff’s family are Jewish and so are most of his friends. He is not anti-semitic. You can listen to the podcast of Mr. Duff's radio interview at the following address: theuglytruth.podbean.com...

Duff confirmed Dr. Sabrosky’s assertion of 03-11-10 that it was Israel who pulled off the 9/11 attacks. Duff also confirmed that in agreement with Dr. Sabrosky, on June 8, 1967 it is certain an Israeli warship and Israeli war planes attacked the American ship, the USS Liberty, killing 34 and wounding 174 U.S. servicemen. Furthermore, at that time the American government mislead the American people into thinking that it was the United Arab Republic (included Egypt). who had attacked the USS Liberty. In other words the attack on the USS Liberty was a false-flag incident which Israel caused to try and pull the U.S. into a war against ISRAELI’s enemies, the United Arab Republic (included Egypt). Duff went on to say that to deny what actually happed with the USS Liberty is treason. This was an American “Holocaust” perpetrated by Israel.

Duff also informed the listening audience that today in European nations if someone in conversation mistakes how many Jews died in the Holocaust (you say 5,999,999 died instead of 6,000,000) they are charged with being an anti-semitic Holocaust denier and they are sent to prison for 5 years. This occurs whether the charge is true or not. If you try and fight the charge of anti-semitism, you go to prison for 10 years instead and your lawyer goes to prison with you.

Gordon Duff, Senior Editor of Veteranstoday.com, confirms the assertion made on the same radio program one week ago (3-15-10) by Marine veteran and graduate and former Director of Studies of the Strategic Studies Institute at the at the Army War College in Carlisle, PA. Alan Sabrosky, Ph.D., that it was the Israeli who did 9/11. Duff put his confirmation this way,

“I can, I can tell you that I have heard the same thing from the directors of national intelligence agencies who’ve told me this in confidence to the extent that, I won’t say who they are, but I’ve been assured that they know and they can prove that Israel did it [9/11]. But of course what do you do when we can have this discussion about the Main Stream Media or Zionism…you know I mean uh when fact has to be certified by a news media that is owned or controlled by people who work directly for the Israeli government inside the U.S. then there will be no truth.”



Duff also went on to say that pretty much everyone involved with the 9/11 commission has come out claimed mia copa and said

“They lied to me, they lied to me. Others walked off with and big fat check and said nothing. Still others shut their mouth so their kids wouldn’t die. Oops, I’m not supposed to talk that way! But, it’s exactly what goes on.”



McGrath responded to Duff by asking,

“just for the sake of clarity here ,Gordon, what you’re saying here not only as a decorated ex-Marine veteran who has been through combat, [Duff interrupts and says “Once a marine, always a Marine.”] well okay for the sake of clarity of this conversation, when you’re talking about people’s kids being killed, you’re talking about real-life Mafia tactics that are applied to our elected members of Congress or to anybody really who holds any kind of position of power or authority within the power structure of the United States? That’s what you’re saying.”



Duff responded with,

“Yeah, I’m saying that a massive criminal conspiracy capable of killing any and everyone from plane crashes to crashing aircraft into buildings in New York City to uh falsifying intelligence that gets hundreds of thousands of people killed in Afghanistan to falsifying intelligence to try to get us to invade Iran, by the way Iran, a country that Israel does hundreds of millions of dollars of business under the table with through Dubai. Israel and Iran, well, does anybody not remember Iran-Contra? I mean this routine here, with we’re supposed to not mention the massive drug smuggling part of it so I won’t say that part, but the part where Ollie North was convicted involved with some kind of weird trade for weapons to Iran all of it going through Israel that was supposed to I mean, now Iran, this was with the Ayatollah running the country and everyday he’s saying let’s destroy Israel and when you want to deal with the Ayatollah, you’ve got to talk to a Jew first! I mean is there something disingenuous about that? Uh, to this day if you wanted to reach anyone in Iran, you’d simply call Tel Aviv and ask for the number! We pretty much all know this.”



Duff went on to say,

“They talk about another issue with, uh, with Israel. We were talking about how we ended up in the Middle East. Let’s look at this Georgia South Osettia War. Uh, now supposedly 1500 Israeli commandos were there. That Georgia is a surrogate state of Israel. Uh, that key high-ranking Bush administration officials work for that government and manage affairs in Georgia for Israel. That Israel is heavily invested in all of the Caspian region pipelines uh because gas and oil transmission is frankly not a dishonest way to make money. But it’s a dishonest way to make money when you secure your investment by drawing your best friend and benefactor the United States into two hopelessly insane wars. And while we’re celebrating that big win in Iraq uh well, if Iran is our enemy, they’re pretty much running Iraq. So, if we don’t like that, then, we lost the war. The Americans, the reason they’re not dying every day of course for the most part is because they’re staying inside their bases because the violence level right now in Iran is very high. [McGrath, “You mean Iraq.” Uh, yes, sorry, Iraq.



Duff recommended people to visit a mirror site to Veterensnews.com which is opinion-maker.org. Duff went on to talk about the intelligence he had gathered from his recent trip to Pakistan. He pointed out that there aren’t any Israelis fighting in America’s two wars but there are about 70,000 Pakistanis. He also stated that many of the suicide bombers that cause death, destruction, and fear in Pakistan are supported by Israel and India. There are 30,000 troops in the streets of Islamabad due to the suicide bombers.

U.S. contractors and India are heavily involved in drug processing in Afghanistan. The U.S. benefits from the sale of drugs that stem from poppy crops grown within Afghanistan. These drugs are now able to be manufactured within Afghanistan rather than having to have the raw materials taken out of the country first. The war is being fought ineffectively because once the war stops billions of dollars of heroin money go away. Americans who see all of the massive drug dealing (with US contractors and India heavily involved) are told not to discuss the involvement of the U.S. in the drug business in Afghanistan.

Afghanistan and India are friends. Pakistan and India are dangerously bitter enemies. Duff stated that Israel is sending American military technologies over to India: AWAKs, anti-ballistic missile systems, highly advanced ABM systems. Combined they’re building ballistic missiles. Duff stated that Israel and India right now are in the process of developing nuclear inter-ballistic missiles (ICBMs) with a range to hit everywhere in the United States. These same ICBMs have a minimum range that makes them unable to be used against Iran. If the US and Europe are Israeli allies, why does Israel need these ICBMs?


Duff responded by saying,

“Since the Russians are withholding the installation of the S-400 anti-aircraft system in Iran, uh it would be very easy using F-15Es which are very nuclear capable of uh destroying Iran quite easily and of course why not since Iran not only is not making any nuclear weapons, duh folks, Iran is NOT making any nuclear weapons and I’ve had that from the Pentagon, and pretty much everyone knows this but Israel does have hundreds of nuclear weapons and is uh more than willing to use them. What’s going to happen to the United States if a uh nuke goes off in Tehran and kills a million people? Do you uh think that uh some other country isn’t going to attack Israel, you know perhaps Russia? Do you think that we won’t have a world nuclear war? Of course if you were a Christian Zionist and you believe that the Apocalypse should be brought on and as soon as we have that nuclear war, that you know the rapture will come, and a lot of American Christians do, then you should encourage Israel to kill millions of people. Hey, why stop at Tehran. Let them, as Israel threatened two weeks ago, let them nuke Rome. That’s what she threatened to do two weeks ago. I think the code would be if Israel feels threatened she has the capacity to destroy Rome and other cities in Western Europe and won’t hesitate to do so. That’s very close to a quote and you aren’t going to read that in the paper! (see reference at end of interview).



McGrath added, “And of all persons, Martin van Cravell [who Duff quoted] who is considered Israel’s most respected military historian.” Cooke asked, “Is it conceivable that the Israeli government is just tickled to death that we’re going down the tubes and some day the U.S. and Israel could come to blows?

Duff continued by saying, “Well, Israel is predicting that when the U.S. hits 15 trillion $ in debt, that our national credit rating will collapse, our ability to fund our currency will diminish significantly. So Israel has been making provisions to ally herself with China and ally herself with India. And of course a number of the key individuals within the Russian government are friendly to Israel. And Israel feels that somehow they’re going to meet that uh long established goal of being able to play one person against the another, I guess the way the British did it really 200 years ago, but they’re going to play the Great Game and come out on top somehow, whatever that is. This is all based on, essentially it’s, it’s an odd game because the game is played, the victims aren’t just the Americans that are dying and the Palestinians that are dying, but the Jews in the U.S., around the world, and many of the Jews in Israel are the victims.

You know this uh, I’m thinking about the guy here I can’t remember his name, the guy who’s the Ambassador to Belgium now, he was talked into funding the Swift Boat guys who turned out to be frauds. Uh, I actually had a go round with Warren Buffet about that because Buffet had said he had agreed to pay a million dollars to the Paralyzed Veterans of America if the Swift Boat Vets could be proved wrong and they were and Buffet refused to pay. We had a little email exchange on this after I wrote a little article criticizing him.

McGath,

“We were talking about the financial situation and you were talking about the Ambassador to Belgium and how he had been cornered.” Duff continues, “It’s not just that the financial situation got the way it is, it was engineered to go here. We didn’t get here accidentally. If you look behind, oh God and this has that conspiratorial sound to it, but if you think the subprime problem in the U.S., uh if you look at EVERY company involved, you’ll pretty much see the hand of Israel in it. And if you see what covered it all up, Rupert Murdoch and News Corp., but it wasn’t just that it was ABC, NBC, CBS, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the other frankly Israeli publications and each one here to varying degrees accused the other one of being the biased liberal press. We don’t have a press.”



Duff then stated,

“One thing Jeff Gates probably went into on your show is if a population in a free democratic country is chronically misinformed by their news, systematically and chronically misinformed, and if they don’t have adequate information to make decisions, then they’re no longer a free people.”


Duff continued,

“The underwear-bomber in Detroit was totally dropped on Israel’s door. Abdulmutallab’s Dad was not a banker out of Nigeria, he was a partner with the Mossad in the national defense industry. When the kid went to Yemen, he joined an organization run by two al Qaeda members who had just been released on the signature of Dick Cheney from Gitmo. Uh, the Yemeni government has proof and it has certainly offered the United States that the al Qaeda cell in Yemen is being operated out of Tel Aviv. The young gentlemen flew into Aregano where the government’s chief of security is one of my friends. I also deal with the Algerian government so I was able to track his movements through there. He arrived in Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam. With all the endless lies that went around. The endless lies. He had no passport and was wearing jeans and a tee shirt. He told authorities that he was from Sudan and he wanted to get on a plane to the U.S. In view of two American attornies, he was walked into a back room, out another door, and down a pilot runway by an employee of an Israeli security company. Within ten minutes he was walked onto a plane. If you did this [Israel], why did you not do 9/11? Why did no one ever take a look at this?”



Duff added,

“Former head of Homeland Security, Michael Chertoff, represents a number of companies, both Indian and Israeli, that manufacture airport scanning devices. The stocks of these companies were up billions the next day. It becomes really clear that it was just a “small bank robbery”. Crashing planes into buildings was just a bigger bank robbery. “



McGrath,

“The future is what has me concerned. What someone has done once they’ll do again. What someone has done twice they will do again. Gordon, what is Israel likely to do next?”



Duff responded with,

“Israel is using the United States is a milk cow. There is a movement within Israel on the very far right who are very full of themselves. They think they’re not going to be smacked down. The military of the United States (all those in charge) is utterly through with Israel. Not are they only through with Israel, but uh, those in charge in the U.S. military have also had it with some American politicians (Mrs. Clinton, Biden, and Obama) who bow and apologize and won’t stand up to the Israeli government. There are crazy people in charge of Israel right now, totally nuts. This criminal element has no religious Jews in it. The extremist criminal element in Israel is in a position to use America right now because of AIPAC and the control Israel has over American news networks, to use the U.S. “



Duff added,

“The reality is the world is drowning in debt. The money is going into only a few hands. It is becoming increasingly chaotic and unstable and the standards of living are becoming lower and lower. No one is going to work in England or Germany (the supposedly powerhouse economy). The roads are empty. Pakistan has 18 months before economic collapse. India may have money and power but they have a lot of people in abject poverty.”



Duff closed with,

““The U.S.S. liberty is a benchmark. Anyone who doesn’t believe that Israel attacked that ship, their allegiance with America. If you can’t stand by American soldiers in war time, you don’t belong in the damn country. “

Bank For International Settlements (BIS): How The Rothschilds Control And Dictate To The World

Bank For International Settlements (BIS): How The Rothschilds Control And Dictate To The World
by William Dean A. Garner


For decades, people have urged me, pushed me, prodded me, practically peeled off my skin, pulled out my eyes, and yanked out my brain to prove it, i.e. show them the data, the results, the books, manuals, pamphlets, journals, monographs, voice and video recordings, all the resources I have used to make the statements I do about the Brzezinski Cartel and the Rothschilds.

On the evening of St. Patrick’s Day 2010, I feel now is the time . . . but with a twist.

The list below shows 165 different ways how The First Sphere of Influence (Rothschilds and Brzezinski Cartel) controls the world. One hundred and sixty-five reasons to believe what I say to be 100% accurate and true.

Each entry is a separate and distinct central bank, located in a separate and distinct part of the world. These central banks cover the globe and know absolutely no boundaries, effectively erasing borders between even sworn enemies.

The BIS (pronounced BIZZ) is the Rothschild’s piggy bank, a veritable deep-pit mine, the equivalent of quadrillions of dollars.

quadrillion quad·ril’lion adj.

The cardinal number equal to 1015.
Chiefly British. Septillion.
What’s the significance of having a central bank within a country and why should you concern yourself, your family and colleagues?

Central banks are illegally created PRIVATE banks that are owned by the Rothschild banking family. The family has been around for more than 230 years and has slithered its way into each country on this planet, threatened every world leader and their governments and cabinets with physical and economic death and destruction, and then emplaced their own people in these central banks to control and manage each country’s pocketbook. Worse, the Rothschilds also control the machinations of each government at the macro level, not concerning themselves with the daily vicissitudes of our individual personal lives. Except when we get too far out of line.

The grand plan of The First Sphere of Influence is to create a global mononation. Please do not confuse this with the term globalization. Mononation and globalization couldn’t be more different in concept, scope and purpose. Mononation is one state. It has one government. One set of laws for all ordinary citizens, no laws for the elite. Globalization refers to communicating, trading, interacting, etc. among separate, different, independent, sovereign countries.

The grand plan of The First Sphere of Influence is to create a global mononation.
Our own Federal Reserve is an illegally emplaced private bank that is directly responsible for creating all the US’s depressions, recessions, and the inflation and deflation of our dollar. The Fed controls the printing of our own currency, and then charges the US government interest on those loans. The interest is growing each year, making it difficult if not impossible for our government to pay it. How do we pay this interest? By the US Personal Income Tax. This tax goes to the Rothschild family.

In the coming months, as I continue to gather intel and write a book about The First Sphere of Influence, I will share more and more. For now, I kindly ask that you read each of the 165 lines below. One hundred and sixty-five reasons to believe my intel. You can click on each bank and visit its website. I’ve seen each one. They’re real. And they’re one of the reasons why each country is in such deep debt to this insidious family, the Rothschilds.

By the way, if you’re curious what the US debt is to the BIS, please refer to the table at the end of this article, taken from the latest statistical results provided by the Joint External Debt Hub, which receives data from the BIS, International Monetary Fund, World Bank, and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.

Another archaeological "proof" of ancient Israel goes "poof!"

Egypt is literally littered with the ruins of the ancient temples and palaces of her rulers. As much as has been found, it is estimated that only 1/3 of Egypt's archeological wonders have been uncovered. A newly discovered temple was uncovered while digging a sewer line, and a cache of finely preserved mummies was literally stumbled over by a cow in a pasture.

Iraq's ancient heritage was enshrined in its ancient sites and museum. As a result of the war, many of those sites have been damaged or destroyed. Part of the ancient city or Ur now lies underneath a US air base runway. Nebuchadnezzar's palace now lies underneath a US-built parking lot. The treasures of the museum have only partly been recovered. The treasures from the looted archaeological sites have been scattered to the world.

All of this wealth of archaeological treasures must of course annoy Israel. We are raised from birth with Old Testament tales of the greatness of the ancient Israelites, of the powerful kingdoms of Solomon and David and the first temple. Yet Israel, while rich in antiquities, is almost totally devoid of artifacts from this supposedly glorious time in her history. The existence of the fabled First Temple was supported with just two artifacts, a carved staff ornament in the shape of a pomegranate and the Jehoash tablet. Both of these artifacts have been exposed as frauds. We are told that once there was a magnificent temple on that hill, but it "all went away."

The wonders emerging from the soil of Egypt, Iraq, and Iran serve as a constant reminder that ancient buildings of such a scale as we are told the First Temple was simply do not vanish without a trace.
There is considerable reason to suspect that the tales told in the Old Testament are just that; tales. The Bible is not science, it is the collected stories of a primitive tribal people telling each other how important they are. And like fishermen talking about the one that got away, or Ramses with his temple carvings of the did-not-really-happen victory over the Hittites at Kadesh, the writers of the ancient testaments assumed that the people they were telling stories to had no way to verify the claims for themselves. So "embellishment" was a low-risk activity.

We do know from the available archaeological evidence that the Exodus probably actually happened to the Hyksos, not the Israelites. We know that the story of Moses is suspect because no Egyptian princess would hide a Hebrew child inside Pharaoh's household, then give the kid a Hebrew name ("Moses" is actually an Egyptian title meaning "Prince" and is included in the names of many Pharaoh's names such as Tut-Moses, Ah-Moses, Ra-Moses (Ramses) etc.)
Likewise, the story of Masada may be less than accurate. The remains found on the mountain were buried with pig bones, something no proper Jewish funeral would tolerate, which suggests that the bodies found and venerated as heroes of ancient Judea were actually those of dead Romans, for whom burial often involved animals as gifts to the spirit of the dead.

But a good story is a good story and the writers of the ancient texts were probably not thinking much further into the future than the guys who pen the "Celebrity dates space alien" stories you see at supermarket checkout lines. The fact that the celebrity is a real person does not prove the space alien exists. It's just a story.
Given enough time, even a simple story written in jest can take on a life of its own. Scientology began as a bet between two science fiction writers; look how wide spread that has become in just a short time.

But, over time, entire religions with attendant wealth and power structures have been built on the premise that these old testament stories really happened exactly as written. And today, here in the 21st century world, science has started to catch up with these ancient legends and call many of them into doubt.

So, for a nation that justifies its existence on the writings of the Torah, the plethora of sites and artifacts confirming the ancient histories of Egypt, Iraq, Iran, etc. etc. etc. must seem a dire political threat for a nation whose own ancient history seems to have left little if any traces at all.

In that context, the strange behavior of the US military which posted guards around the Iraq oil ministry while bulldozing Iraq's archaeological sites starts to make sense, if the supporters of a very insecure nation decide that leveling the archaeological playing field is preferable to allowing the obvious disparity in artifacts to remain visible to the world.
