I did try to warn you this would happen if you looked the other way while your neighbors got clobbered.
(MSNBC) – Former Florida Sen. Bob Graham, who co-chaired Congress’ Joint Inquiry into the 9/11 terrorist attacks, has seen two classified FBI documents that he says are at odds with the bureau’s public statements that there was no connection between the hijackers and Saudis then living in Sarasota, Fla.

(DigWithin) – Recent developments among supporters of the US government’s version of events indicate that they plan to begin blaming Saudi Arabia for the attacks of September 11, 2001. There is, in fact, much evidence suggesting complicity by some elements within the Saudi government. But that fact only further implicates western powers due to the close relationship between the Saudi royal family, which runs the Saudi government, and deep state controlling interests that have partnered with and manipulated the Saudi royal family for many decades. Blaming Saudi Arabia would, however, make a lot of sense if seizing resources, including the world’s greatest oil reserves, was what the war on terror has always been about.

(KenO’Keefe) – It is 5:30 pm here in Gaza and reports are coming in of 2 million in the streets in Cairo, over 2 million for their “1 Million March”. February 1 could still be the day that one brutal dictator flees the Middle East. But more important than one fleeing tyrant are the seeds that are being sown. If we nurture these Tunisian and Egyptian seed, identify the powers that be, hiding, conspiring, attempting to co-opt as they always do, we can end their game once and for all. Think about a world in which there are no secret negotiations like those revealed in the Palestine Papers. Think of a world in which “politicians” are replaced by representatives, real and genuine representatives, honouring the will of the people at all times. Why not? Read the rest of this entry »
