The
Koppel's Out of the Bag!
It was back in March 2003 that I
first said the U.S. government would engineer a major
terrorist event, and falsely blame Iran for it, in order
to prompt invasion of another Middle-East country.
I repeated these assertions in at least three subsequent
articles, dated November
2004, November 2005,
and April 2006. I also
looked for a nuclear dimension to this "false-flag"
terrorism, especially as the U.S. government has been
so busy of late creating the phantom of an Iranian nuclear
menace.
But I was shocked to see official acknowledgement of
this strategy, however unwitting, in a recent New
York Times Op-Ed piece by Ted Koppel (Oct. 2, 2006):
"If Iran is bound and determined to have nuclear
weapons, let it," he writes. "If a dirty bomb
explodes in Milwaukee, or some other nuclear device
detonates in Baltimore or Wichita, if Israel or Egypt
or Saudi Arabia should fall victim to a nuclear 'accident,'
Iran should understand that the U.S. government will
not search around for the perpetrator. The return address
will be predetermined, and it will be somewhere in Iran."
Many valid parallels are now being drawn between the
U.S. of today and the England of George Orwell's novel,
1984, but no-one points to the central role of
false-flag terrorism in Orwell's prophecy. In case you
missed it, here is a direct quote:
"The proles, normally apathetic about the war,
were being lashed into one of their periodical frenzies
of patriotism. As though to harmonize with the general
mood, the rocket bombs had been killing larger numbers
of people than usual…Once when he happened in some
connection to mention the war against Eurasia, she startled
him by saying casually that in her opinion the war was
not happening. The rocket bombs which fell daily on
London were probably fired by the Government of Oceania
itself, 'just to keep people frightened.'"
Koppel's unintended confession confirms that the next
big one will mark the latest and deadliest advance in
the time-honored tradition of synthetic terrorism perpetrated
by the U.S. (though I still believe European, rather
than U.S. citizens, will be the next to suffer).
