Turkey Warned France Twice About Terrorist Attacker; Was Ignored
Yesterday when we reported on the latest developments in the French (and global) response to the September 13 terrorist attack we noted something quite unexpected: France, in the words of its prime minister, had been warned in advance that an attack was coming.
To wit:
Perhaps preempting the question how the NSA and Europe's sterling intelligence - which collects all the private information except that which is actually needed to avert tragic loss of life - failed so massively in preventing this terrorist attack, Valls said French intelligence services had prevented several attacks since the summer and police knew other attacks were being prepared in France as well as in the rest of Europe.
"We know that operations were being prepared and are still being prepared, not only against France but other European countries too."
Our confusion yesterday summarized: "If you knew, why did you not stop them them" adding that "perhaps some questions are better left unasked."
And yet, 24 hours later we have to ask again, because as the NYT reports, France had received an explicit warning about one of the terrorists from Turkey not once but twice. To wit:
The Turkish authorities warned their French counterparts twice in the past year about one of the attackers, Ismaël Omar Mostefaï, a 29-year-old French citizen who was known by the authorities as someone who had radical Islamist beliefs, an official said on Monday.
The official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, in line with government protocol, said the government never heard back from France and only received an “information request” about Mr. Mostefaï after the Paris attacks.
“On Oct. 10, 2014, Turkey received an information request regarding four terror suspects from the French authorities,” the official said. “During the official investigation, the Turkish authorities identified a fifth individual, Omar Ismail Mostefai, and notified their French counterparts twice — in December 2014 and June 2015.”
European intelligence officials believe that Mr. Mostefaï traveled to Turkey in 2012, and probably then slipped into Syria.
The Turkish official disputed that account, saying Mr. Mostefaï entered Turkey in 2013 and that there was no record of him leaving the country.
Pointing to the lack of communication, the Turkish official said the case of Mr. Mostefaï reflected the importance of sharing intelligence in fighting terrorism.
It appears it did not. Unless, of course, France had no interest in preventing a terrorist attack perpetrated by at least one individual whom it had been warned about. In which case the question becomes: why did France blatantly ignore and do nothing when warned. We doubt we will get an answer, however we hope at least the friends and family of the deceased casualties get a response from the French government.

Echo: Russia warning the US about those Boston guys.
Echo: Mother K telling little K "to quit that or you'll be shaving your hands and knuckles for the rest of your life".
Echo: Mooch telling everybody he's gonna change their life (Betcha the Syrians and French didn't think that applied to them, did they?)
You have to understand intelligence agencies. It's far easier to spy on your own citizens than it is to spy on those pesky foreigners.
the terrorists are working for the maggots. ever wonder why the maggots themselves are never ever targeted by the terrorists? stop wondering.
OF COURSE FRANCE KNEW! Probably all of USA's minions knew! With Russia being a big player/leader in Syria the west needed a reason to get skin back in the game.
This was a Stand Down False Flag event. The French people should be rioting in the streets because of the lie.
If anyone has read any newspapers in the last few days, they reek of boogeman propaganda compared to sources like ZH.
It's like the Islamicised nine-elevs equivalent event of Europe with Aurora-Hook-Boston style blaming on the new Muslim boogeman.
A storm is brewing...
A storm is brewing...
And has been Skate for 14 years 2 months 6 days 1 hour and 24 minutes!...
And WHY is Syria a hot spot (driving the point home)? Because the Saudi's, Qatar and Israel are building a pipeline to give Russia's Gazprom competition in servicing Europe.
Qatar-Turkey Pipeline
We CAN NOT be looking at Ismaël Omar Mostefaï, and similar, when we have 90 year old, white, Christian, great grandmothers to watch in order to show the world that we are not raaaaciss. Leftist governments are SO FUN!!!
France is pushing to change the French constitution to make it so that it can revoke the citizenship of immigrants.
Does anybody think that this would be possible without a few terrorist attacks?
Is that is how all countries should make their laws? If someone is going to kill some people if a certain law is passed, or not passed, then DO WHAT THEY SAY!!! If so, the ones who will murder have won. There will be no laws that even slightly disturb people who are happy to kill others. The KKK and enviro-terrorists will have their way in th U.S.
"If you don't ban all cars we will kill some people." OK... All cars are banned!!!
Pipeline story is not talk about much. Russia is want pipeline through Syria to access Mediterranean and Europe market direct route, and is need help of Mr. Bashir Al-Assaad. Of course, Saudi Arabia and partner Amerikansky is not want competition. Funny is that beneficiary of pipeline access should is be citizenry of Syria, but they are pay ulitimate price in proxy war.
plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose
It's like the Islamicised nine-elevs equivalent event of Europe with Aurora-Hook-Boston style blaming on the new Muslim boogeman.
Let us hope that in France's overzealous condition like their American counterpart, rational voices within the state apparatus will ask legitimate question(s) on the narrative demanding the names of all those killed with autopsy verification unlike Aurora, Sandy Hook and Boston!...
The media story is now inundating everyone with circumstantial evidence, completely incontrovertible, and pure 100% bullshit.
The French people are rioting in the streets. You're just not reading about it.
It's the American people who should be rioting.
You didn't warn that.
While intel agencies are sitting behind the computer clicking and restricting your payment transfers, travel and privacy, the culprits are walking over the border without passports, a wad of cash and using fax machines.
So what are Western Governments calling for: MORE travel-, payment-, privacy- and internet restrictions.
The morons....."everything a government touches, turns to crap" - Ringo Star
At least it's nice to know that govt incompetence not geographically limited
If France does not collect the intel on their citizens, the NSA or the Israelis do it for them. It's possible the French and US governments knew of these attacks in advance. It seems like the French were prepared to take full advantage of the geopolitical opportunity offered by the attacks, similar to what happened here after 911. And this scenario leaves out the possibility the attacks were false flags.
bush was warned about 9/11 too
http://abcnews.go.com/US/story?id=91651
the maggots love, foment, and commit terrorism.
@ buzz saw,
Spot on! Thse Criminal Pure Evil Psychopaths are all following the 911 False Flag playbook with accompanying PsyOp, False Narratives & Propaganda.
The frustrating fact is that the behind the scene perps are rubbing their MO in the nose of all those who can truly see what is going on.
Sloppy and redundant doesn’t even begin to describe these cartoon PSYOPs and their pathetic, played patsies that swan dive for the snack bar virgin bait.
Show people a little blood and their collective brains take a vacation.
But hey, it’s worked for our perps before so they’ll use it until it melts down into a big steaming puddle of LieGoo+TM …. Hell, why not?

Go talk to Jamie Gorelick and Bill Clinton about that.
A few months ago, someone on ZH posted a link to an interview with William Binney regarding NSA-CSS, September 11th, and the (then) current international situation.
I highly admired what I listented to; in fact, I watched it several times in order to understand the important parameters. This article reminds me of something that seemed to greatly trouble him: that the West, led by the US since 9/11, has not only designed an illegal method of international policing, but that moreover it is spreading to Europe.
Its all preparation for the coming dollar collapse.
Classic problem, reaction, solution!
Encourage the terrorists in, facilitate their ability to kill innocent people, then use this as an excuse to further the agenda!
Liars, cowards and traitors one and all!

ZATO article 5 - thats all folks.
The Germans also warned the French... but French pigs apparently prefer their coffee and croissants to actually doing their job, just like Condoleezza Rice. State bureaucracies reward sycophant loyalty not performance and responsibility.
Paris = Dien Bien Phu 2
They needed to let it happen so they can mobilize public sentiment and military assets to the middle east unfettered..
People are cattle to them. Their geopolitical goals out weigh a few broken eggs.
Not to mention it sooo add to president`s public approval and distract from economic issues...
When you allow your citizens to go to the Mid East and learn terrorism and then are allowed too come back into your country you deserve what you get. France figures they have at least 1,500 Islamic radicals in residence. Also why are not the local Muslim religious leaders that spew violent rhetoric not arrested for contributing to terrorism.
These aren't radicals in residence.
It's shaping up to look like most of these pricks were fucking French Citizens! They actually are naturalizing jihadis then...wondering why they pop of all jihad?
Then, they go bomb a country that is fighting to survive a siege by jihadis.
Makes sense.
And people believe all this terrorist shit is legit. Hilarious. I swear that VIDEOS of government/intelligent agents could come out showing they planned all this stuff and these groups are nothing but cia controlled/run groups and people would still not grasp that it's all false flag after false flag.
If you want to know where and when the next terrorist act is scheduled, ask Langley.
The worst magicians EVER since September 11, 2001!...
But how can you implement "Le Patriot Act" if there is no attack?

"Bravo" si!
Correct. However, just because Zionist psychopaths are pulling the strings here, does not change the fact that Islam, as written, has the singular goal of complete world domination from a POLITICAL perspective.

Out of the page(s) of none other than the "Muslim Brotherhood"...
Now who do they work for again?!!!
Exactly, my thoughts.
Exactly, my thoughts. BTW, Who are the good guys and who are the bad guys? It's so hard to tell nowadays. Geez, Beam me up Scotty!
Well. Duh.
It's not much good if you have no crisis to take advantage of. A little shooting here, a little bombing there and BAM, you get the powers you always wanted.
They keep useing that oxymoron "radical islamist"
I don't think it means what they think it means.
Inconceivable!
Reminds one of pressure cookers and FBI agents...
Sounds like Fedcoat chili.
Obamy said it was a crock pot
Nothing like having thousands of illegal alien Patsy's to do your bidding.
Which was it?
Black pack
or
White pack
?
I'm so confused...
Wait wait wait!! You mean your government's not going to protect you??? Well gawwwlee wally.
That's easy to explain. Hollande owes Wall Street, Frankfurt and the House of Saud his job. They want Assad and Putin gone, at almost any price, and any politician worth his CFR membership card knows better than to waste a crisis.
If ISIS got lucky, he figured only poors would be in any real danger. He would get to look like a war hero, like he did after the Charlie massacre (in which he may have actively co-operated, but that's another story) and use the boost in popularity (however brief) to get serious about repaying France's debts to the banksters and oil sheikhs on the battlefield.
What really got his attention was coming within a hair's breadth of being blown up by a suicide bomber himself. Pretty amazing (if you didn't know better) how much his opinion of Putin's Russia and Assad's Syria has matured in just a few days. I'm not sure Barry and Angie were counting on that.
This would never happen in Texas! They like their terrorism from 'Mericuhns.

So Turkey is the "good guy" here.
Let them join the EU faster.
This is even more stupid than stupid.
Little too late to be playing CYA.
Nice try though.

Meh. In pushing the orwellian agenda, they want to get the plebs conditioned to having troops in the street, (hence deploying 115,000 troops in France.) I'm sure they'll try it elsewhere.
Sigh. Those numbskulls just don't get it yet.

When the NWO and the 'terrorists' both focus on the same place, my spider-sense starts a-tingling.
France's financial sociopaths considered Turkey's information "useful." Kinda like Roger Babson's disgust with church board members acting like corporate board members. "On this news, let's sell certain holdings before the congregation finds out about this."
We don't care bout some stinking terrorists. We want to know who the assistant mayor of Lyon is banging as a kickback
for the cement work on a local school. Now that is intelligence work. Bonsoir.
Wow, not only are they sophisticated but they're carrying the "attacks" out in style...
http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/paris-attack-witness-says-black-683...
It's what I have been saying: These attacks are "waved on" by the authorities, Pearl Harbor, 9-11 style. The lackeys think they are carrying them out independently, but in fact are permitted by the governments who have an ulterior motive...like justification for war/increased bombing.
"ulterior motive..."
like AGW.
The immigrant wave was problem reaction solution and the terrorist attacks are problem reaction solution. The migrant wave has served it's purpose it can also explain to people why everything spiraled into hell so fast and provides a scapegoat for the public anger..... those damn terrrists.
It seems to be working quite well but there are more people aware of this type of plot now then ever before in history, I bet their scared.
order thru chaos
change you can believe in
Who are the French punishing with their attacks in Syria (Raqqa?)
http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/syrian-activists-claim-stadium-m...
coincidence
france was conducting an anti terror drill on the 13th
cia director brennan was there on the 13th...... explaining ... this is how we do it:
___________________
ok city was conducting a bomb drill when they blew up the bldg
FBI informants told of the plot....nothing done
wtc '93.... fbi informant told them about the plot... nothng done.... oh except the fbi informant helped them make the actual bomb
9/11 ... fbi informed of the plot by a paid informant living with 2 of the hijackers... nothing done
norad conducting live anti hijack drill on 9/11
interceptors diverted to out in atlantic rather than to the hijacked planes
IMMIGRANT CRISIS MANUFACTURED TO DESTABILIZE THE WEST.....
lib pols all for it ...
I have the feeling a lot of those warnings spy agencies give each other about potential terrorists are given as lists with tens of thousands of names. Probably those who frequent islamist sites, zerohedge or who suddenly start going to the mosque.
"Here´s this month catch, 20.000 more new names for the database. Please keep an eye on every one of them".
Not to worry, France was running another special training op that morning of the attack, so they thusly had plenty of responders on hand to set the stage....errr, I mean clean up the leftovers....
Let me understand this. The French say they know an ever-increasing number of terrorist attacks are being planned as time passes... then lets a flood of "who knows who" into their fictitious nation?
Oh brother. I guess "regular folks" can't recognize absurdities even when they're shoved right in front of their faces! Apparently regular folks can't add one plus one equals two... because they don't bother to consider what they hear in one soundbite with what they hear in other soundbites from the same "leaders".
Sheesh!
If breeding rattlesnakes in a children's nursery seems repellent and wildly irrational to all civilized societies, one has to suspect the agenda of those leaders impelled to do it anyhow. The answer comes quickly - a new constitution, new emergency powers, and a greatly buttressed police state. Who could'a guessed?
#1: The predators-that-be.
#2: Anyone alert, awake, capable of rationality.
-----
Oh, what I forgot to say. Not only do they let in a flood of "who knows who"... those "who knows who" are from a region where you (as part of NATO) bombed them, their families, friends, neighbors and cities back to the stone age. Now, that won't piss any of them off, will it?
Turkey should really have in depth knowledge about Daesh planned attacks.
