June 2001 Bioterror Exercise Foreshadowed 9/11 and Anthrax Attacks

George Washington's picture




 

On June 22-23, 2001 - some 3 months before 9/11, and 4 months before the Anthrax attacks - the U.S. military held a senior-level war game at Andrews Air Force Base called Dark Winter.

The scenario of this bio-terrorism drill was designed to simulate a smallpox attack in three states. Numerous congressmen, former CIA director James Woolsey, New York Times reporter Judith Miller (who pushed the Iraq WMD myth, as well as the false link between Iraq and the Anthrax attacks), and anti-terror official Jerome Hauer all participated in the exercise.

As a part of this war game, scripted TV news clips were made to help make this drill as realistic as possible.

At the end of one of these clips, the reporter says:

Iraq might have provided the technology behind the attacks to terrorist groups based in Afghanistan.

Why is this interesting?

Because U.S. officials intentionally linked Iraq to Al Qaeda and 9/11 to justify the Iraq war, even though they knew there was no such connection. (The claim that Iraq is linked to 9/11 has since been debunked by the 9/11 Commission, top government officials, and even – long after they alleged such a link – Bush and Cheney themselves.)

Indeed, Dark Winter articipant Woolsey - the former CIA director - swore in court testimony that Saddam Hussein was connected to 9/11.

Similarly, the government tried to falsely blame the anthrax attacks on Iraq as a justification for war:

When Congress was originally asked to pass the Patriot Act in late 2001, the anthrax attacks which occurred only weeks earlier were falsely blamed on spooky Arabs as a way to scare Congress members into approving the bill. Specifically:

And see this.

Dark Winter participants Judith Miller - the New York Times reporter who had long hyped bioterror threats through books and articles - and CIA head Woolsey were two of the loudest voices blaming the Anthrax attacks on Iraq.

Woolsey was an outspoken proponent of war against Iraq even before 9/11.

Moreover, the parallels between the Dark Winter exercise and the Anthrax attacks are numerous. For example, in the Dark Winter exercise:

  • Anonymous letters are sent to the media
  • Anonymous letters threatened anthrax attacks on the United States
  • Iraq and Bin Laden are key suspects

Remember, neoconservatives planned regime change in Iraq (and the U.S. had already carried out regime change in Iraq in the early 1960s).

It has been extensively documented that the White House decided to invade Iraq before 9/11:

Here are all 6 of the scripted news clips from Dark Winter:

In less than thirty years, this country has become Only Via Immigration from third world countries, barely half white. At what point are we third world enough that the immigration will be stopped so that Our Children have water to drink? At what point have enough diseases been imported so that we all are exposed to imported leprosy and tuberculosis? At what point are we no longer responsible for Liberia, two-hundred years After its establishment? And if you call that racist, then to heck with you. No one calls China, only for the Chinese racist. No one calls Mexico, only for the Mexicans racist. Odd that whites aren't allowed to survive with a culture and country of their own.

GW, this testing was conducted in 2012... Homeland Security tests to begin at T stops in Cambridge, Somerville

http://www.boston.com/yourtown/news/cambridge/2012/08/homeland_security_...

 

The federal government Wednesday will begin releasing bacteria at Red Line MBTA stations in Cambridge and Somerville at set times to test sensors designed to detect biological agents that could be released in a terrorist attack.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority said in a press release Monday that the harmless bacteria is non-infectious and the tests will be performed when the stations are closed.

The tests will begin Wednesday and will be held periodically over the next year at the Harvard and Porter Square stations in Cambridge and the Davis Square station in Somerville.

Signs will be posted in the MBTA stations one day before each scheduled test, according to the federal agency.

Biological detection sensors have been installed at the stations and the tests are being conducted in an effort to detect and minimize any impacts from an attack or accident involving hazardous biological materials in a mass transit system.

A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties(1982)

"Iraq, rich in oil on the one hand and internally torn on the other, is guaranteed as a candidate for Israel's targets. Its dissolution is even more important for us than that of Syria. Iraq is stronger than Syria. In the short run it is Iraqi power which constitutes the greatest threat to Israel. An Iraqi-Iranian war will tear Iraq apart and cause its downfall at home even before it is able to organize a struggle on a wide front against us. Every kind of inter-Arab confrontation will assist us in the short run and will shorten the way to the more important aim of breaking up Iraq into denominations as in Syria and in Lebanon. In Iraq, a division into provinces along ethnic/religious lines as in Syria during Ottoman times is possible. So, three (or more) states will exist around the three major cities: Basra, Baghdad and Mosul, and Shi'ite areas in the south will separate from the Sunni and Kurdish north. It is possible that the present Iranian-Iraqi confrontation will deepen this polarization."

The book to read is Dr. Graeme MacQueen's

The 2001 Anthrax Deception - The Case for a Domestic Conspiracy, 2014 Clarity Press

It parallels GW's thesis plus much more.  MacQueen notes that the MSM have admitted that the anthrax attacks are an "inside job", and Graeme points out that the FBI's attempt to frame 'the lone nut' Dr. Bruce Ivins is ridiculous.  Once one understands that the anthrax attacks are/were intimately tied to 9/11, the alleged hijackers and Iraq, one cannot escape the conclusion that 9/11 was also an "inside job".

Yeah the second it was revealed that the anthrax strain could only have recently been removed from US weapons grade anthrax the case was pretty much closed, doesn't matter if they tried to retract that conclusion years later.  Then they pegged it on that one poor bastard and he was suicided.  Kind of funny how the terror comes in waves too.  Last time it was Anthrax, highway shooter, 9-11 etc.  This time it's Isis, Ebola, Enterovirus, collapsing markets...... to be continued.  And lets not forget what the end result was of the Anthrax scare.... The Patriot Act.  Lets hope we are smarter this time.

I am glad that George Washington doesn't seem to mind being ridiculed.  What was that old saying about the truth... first it is ridiculed

Woolsey is a shabbas goy neocon/zionist, and of course miller and hauer are Zionist Jews with deep ties to Israel.  But perhaps this isn't relevant.

All 3 downplayed clear and unequivocal statements by "bin Laden" and Khalid Mohammad that US support for Israel in its barbaric treatment of Palestinians was a key motivator for attacking the US - in fact, those statements were absolutely memory holed by a de facto Zionist controlled press.

 

http://www.consortiumnews.com/2009/111509a.html

 

Iraq wasn't about oil, and that should be obvious by dint of Greenspan suggesting that it was.  It wasn't even about the petrodollar although that may have motivated some.  For the neocons, overwhelmingly Jewish although one is not free to state the obvious, it was about Ersetz Israel - a continuation of the Oded Yinon plan.

 

Iraq was engineered largely, although not exclusively, by a cabal of right wing, 5th columnist Zionist Jews who have largely managed to stay in power in the Obama administration, and who are acting as a government within a government.  Having Israeli companies set up NSA networks then giving the raw data collected on all Americans to Israel is batshit crazy - no one primarily loyal to the US would have allowed either, but Jewish-and-Zionist power and influence is, if anything, under-stated.

 

It should go without saying that it is not "all Jews" but it should also be said that the neocons were Zionist Jews, primarily, inordinately concerned with destroying the middle east to pave the way for Israeli hegemony.

 

And expansion.

http://mycatbirdseat.com/2014/07/the-unfolding-of-yinons-zionist-plan-fo...

 

"conspiracy theory" and "anti-Semitism" are black magickal - designed primarily to obfuscate what should be obvious.  Claiming that Iraq was "about oil" - unsupported by the evidence, by the way - is merely a means to provide an alternative narrative that will cover the Israeli/sayanim angle.

 

The fact that the neoconservative movement was Jewish and Zionist is absolutely beyond dispute - yet never, ever is it mentioned.  THAT is power.  A major reason for the 9/11 attacks, uttered by the 2 major alleged figures involved Israel and that was also whitewashed out of wikipedia and virtually all histories of the attacks.

 

That is frightening.

 

Wake up.  Being honest is not the same as engaging in "hate" and it should be obvious that those conflating the two, only as to Israeli and Jewish power, do not have your best interests at heart.

 

And they intend decades of war and tens of thousands dead.

"Iraq wasn't about oil" it was about building the greater israel. Oil is abiotic and all the nonsense about peak oil has been proven as a sham. Seems to be endless supplies of oil popping up everywhere. Maybe not filling up the close to the surface reserves but the idea of it as a fossil fuel is a children's bedtime story.

The removal of the threat of lower oil prices from Iraqi production very conveniently allowed those prices to remain high. A hell of a lot of money was made by the Zioligarchs on the ride up (and the especially the ride down) of oil AND GAS prices.

Goldman's knowledge of what the real supply situation was was invaluable in extracting billions of $$ from savings of the lumpeninvestors.

totally agree, loregnumbnuts!

what's with these losers, anyway?  it isn't like amorica's entire domestic/foreign security super-structure is predicated on 9/11 or anything...everybody's moved on.  the phantom menace of 'terrorism' is over.  shit, dude, these nut-jobs still have themselves convinced that the most pernicious elements of the patriot act, the NDAA and the open attack on constitutional protections have something to do with 9/11. 

these tin-foil-hatters need to be droned for being at all upset over this spectacular act of high-treason.  besides, it's so uncool to question authority.  have these people no idea how cool obama is?  and since he's so goddam cool, and since he would've undoubtedly revealed any 9/11 tomfoolery the day he took office, well, again, call in the fuckin drones.  it's sad how unhip are those who can't understand the benefits of group-think.   

and the rule of law itself is the most uncool thing ever.  hopefully, felons will soon be allowed to mail in a letter to our court systems calling them out on their uncool refusal to LET IT GO! 

but you're super-cool, numbnuts...it's obvious how cool you are with that sneering pseudo-sophistication of yours.  petulant contempt for dissent and callow obeisance to authority is all the rage these days.  it's what makes cnn, msnbc, fox & all the rest such paragons of journalistic awesomeness.

I have always thought it would be easier to prosecute Obama for murder, particularly under the following US Code...

http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/1119

(b) Offense.— A person who, being a national of the United States, kills or attempts to kill a national of the United States while such national is outside the United States but within the jurisdiction of another country shall be punished as provided under sections 1111, 1112, and 1113.

 

Now all we need is an Attorney General who has it in for this administration.

(c) Limitations on Prosecution.—

(1) No prosecution may be instituted against any person under this section except upon the written approval of the Attorney General, the Deputy Attorney General, or an Assistant Attorney General, which function of approving prosecutions may not be delegated. No prosecution shall be approved if prosecution has been previously undertaken by a foreign country for the same conduct. (2) No prosecution shall be approved under this section unless the Attorney General, in consultation with the Secretary of State, determines that the conduct took place in a country in which the person is no longer present, and the country lacks the ability to lawfully secure the person’s return. A determination by the Attorney General under this paragraph is not subject to judicial review.

Missing Nuke In Colorado Sparks Intense Russian Fears

"The Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) is reporting today that President Putin’s order to begin deploying tactical nuclear weapons throughout the Crimean Federal District is “intensely/directly related” to a “missing”, and believed stolen, low-yield atomic cannon shell from its storage bunker in Fort Carson, Colorado, which is a United States Army installation located near the city of Colorado Springs.

According to the SVR, the atomic weapon missing from Fort Carson has been identified as a W48 nuclear artillery shellthat measures 155 mm (6.1 inches) in diameter and 845.82 mm (33.3 inches) long.

This report notes that the W48 was produced in two models, Mod 0 and Mod 1, which weighed 53.5 and 58 kg (118 and 128 pounds) respectively and have an explosive yield equivalent to 0.072 kiloton (72 tons of TNT).

Though the US had reported that all of their W48 nuclear shells had been “retired” by 1992, this report says, the SVR has long noted their continued “use for training” by US Army 4th Infantry Division forces headquarter at Fort Carson and under the command of North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) forces operating from the Cheyenne Mountain nuclear bunker complex, all of whom are located in El Paso County, Colorado."

Coincidence or causality? Why should military central planning succeed any better than government economic planning? Scripted news reports were planned then and scripted news reports are used now. The moronic central planners welcome anthrax or ebola as a gift from their gods to help in their schemes. Whether the infectious agent is the cause or coincidental, the result is the same: it advances the central planned scheme.

You got a bit of a false dichotomy there, imo.

lts a given, government central planning is shambolic, but anglo-zino, central banking, cabal, conspiracy plans seem to often go as intended. Look at the establishment of the Federal Reserve via a rouse to overcome the lack of a quorum on Christmas Eve, 1913. Another example from the same year, the 16th amendment, establishing the income tax and government muscle to collect for the banksters was never passed ... und so on.

So yeah, these guys have their act together when it come to taking other peoples money.
