As with many “terrorism” related events since 9/11, the Boston bombing official narrative proves to be a web of lies as important facts are revealed. It turns out that the FBI has lied about its knowledge of the alleged suspects, Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, already being presented as guilty not only in the mainstream press but by the President himself.
According to the suspects’ mother, the FBI had been following them for years:
The FBI originally feigned ignorance over
the identity of the two Boston bombing suspects, Tamerlan and Dzhokhar
Tsarnaev, as they appealed to an unwitting public to help them
“identify” and “find” the suspects. […]
Russia Today, in an article titled, “‘They were set up, FBI followed them for years’- Tsarnaevs’ mother to RT,” stated of the suspects’ mother:
But her biggest suspicion surrounding the
case was the constant FBI surveillance she said her family was
subjected to over the years. She is surprised that having been so
stringent with the entire family, the FBI had no idea the sons were
supposedly planning a terrorist act.
She would say of the FBI to Russia Today:
They used to come [to our] home, they
used to talk to me…they were telling me that he [the older, 26-y/o
Tamerlan] was really an extremist leader and that they were afraid of
him. They told me whatever information he is getting, he gets from these
extremist sites… they were controlling him, they were controlling his
every step…and now they say that this is a terrorist act! Never ever is
this true, my sons are innocent!
[…] The FBI would then be forced to
concede that indeed it had interviewed the suspects, in 2011, two years
before the Boston bombings. (Tony Cartalucci Boston Bombing Suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev Reported Killed, Was Alive When Detained: Tamerlan’s Aunt, Global Research, April 22, 2013.)
We were also told that Tamerlan Tsarnaev was killed in an exchange of gunfire after he and his brother had robbed a 7-Eleven:
When the shootout ended, one of the suspects, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, a former boxer, had been shot and fatally wounded. He was wearing explosives, several law enforcement officials said. (Katharine Q. Seelye, William K. Rashbaum and Michael Cooper 2nd Bombing Suspect Caught After Frenzied Hunt Paralyzes Boston, The New York Times, April 19, 2013.)
With a bomb strapped to his chest, one of the Boston Marathon suspects was killed early Friday after he and his accomplice brother robbed a 7-Eleven, shot a police officer to death, carjacked an SUV and hurled explosives in an extraordinary firefight with law enforcement, authorities told NBC News. (Pete Williams, Richard Esposito, Michael Isikoff and Erin McClam, NBC News, One Boston Marathon suspect killed; second suspect, his brother, on loose after firefight, NBC News, April 19, 2013.)
The events surrounding Tamerlan’s death reported by the media are
simply not true. It turns out that Tamerlan’ aunt identified him as a “naked, cuffed, clearly alive and well detainee seen in video aired by CNN”:
Tamerlan Tsarnaev in custody
Was Tamerlan Assassinated?
The Boston Globe confirmed that Marathon Bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev was in custody, contradicting earlier reports that he had been killed in crossfire. If he was in custody and is now dead, does that not suggest that he might have been the object of an extrajudicial assassination? The circumstances of his death remain to be clarified.
Moreover, the 7-Eleven robbery was actually unrelated to the Tsarnaev brothers:
There was a 7-Eleven robbery in Cambridge last night, but it had nothing to do with the Boston Marathon bombing suspects.
Margaret Chabris, the director of corporate communication at 7- Eleven,
says the surveillance video of the crime was not taken at a 7-Eleven
and that the suspect that did rob the 7-Eleven does not look like
Tamerlan or Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.
“The suspect in the photos for that particular 7-Eleven robbery looks nothing like the suspects,” Chabris says. “The police or someone made a mistake. Someone was confused.”
[…] Again, they might be guilty. But as Glenn Greenwald notes:
The overarching principle here should be
that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is entitled to a presumption of innocence until
he is actually proven guilty. As so many cases have proven – from
accused (but exonerated) anthrax attacker Stephen Hatfill to accused (but exonerated) Atlanta Olympic bomber Richard Jewell to dozens if not hundreds of Guantanamo detainees accused
of being the “worst of the worst” but who were guilty of nothing –
people who appear to be guilty based on government accusations and
trials-by-media are often completely innocent. Media-presented evidence
is no substitute for due process and an adversarial trial. (Washington’s
Blog, Boston Terror Narrative Starts Falling Apart, Global Research, April 23, 2013)
On April 19 Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was arrested and brought to a hospital. According to Reuters, “Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was wounded during at least one of two gun battles
with police on Friday, suffering gunshot wounds to his head, neck, legs
and hand [...]“. On April 24, the Huffington Post reported:
Two U.S. officials say the surviving suspect in the Boston bombings was unarmed when police captured him hiding inside a boat in a neighborhood back yard.
Authorities originally said they had exchanged gunfire with Dzhokhar Tsarnaev for more than one hour Friday evening before they were able to subdue him. (Adam Goldman and Pete Yost, Boston Bombing Suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev Reportedly Unarmed When Arrested In Boat, Officials Say, Huffington Post, April 24, 2013.)
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was unarmed and obviously brutalized by police
We still don’t know what really happened in Boston and who committed the attacks even though the mainstream media report that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has admitted being guilty. What we know for sure is that the official Boston bombing narrative is filled with lies and that since 9/11 and in the context of the fictitious “War on Terror”, Western governments, intelligence agencies and mainstream media have proven to be untrustworthy sources of information on alleged “terrorist attacks” or “foiled terrorist plots”.
Canada’s Complicity in the War on Terror
Three days after Boston was locked down, invaded by a colossal police-military apparatus on a surreal “teenagehunt”, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police made a very timely announcement: they had foiled a terrorist plot targeting a Via Rail passenger train. Or so they say.
In a very absurd press conference where three RCMP officers repeatedly answered questions with “we cannot comment as the investigation is ongoing”, the only information they seemed very eager to disclose was that the suspects “received guidance from Al-Qaeda in Iran”.
RCMP press conference
While the Canadian mainstream media take these RCMP allegations at face value, independent news outlets suspect hidden political motives behind the highly publicized announcement:
Neither the police nor government have
given any reason as to why, after allowing the accused to remain at
large for months, they were suddenly arrested Monday afternoon and in a
very high-profile manner. […]
Speaking Tuesday after Jaser’s
arraignment in a Toronto court, his lawyer, John Norris, drew attention
to the timing of the police-government announcement that they had
uncovered Canada’s first “al-Qaeda-sponsored” terror plot. Said Norris,
“The timing of the arrest is a bit of a mystery and certainly I would
like to hear the RCMP’s explanation for that. They have been very clear
that there is no risk of public safety and it is surprising to say the
least that this arrest would be made now, close on the heels of what
happened in Boston and timed perfectly with what was happening in the
House of Commons yesterday.”
On Friday, the Conservative government
announced that it was changing the House of Commons’ agenda, scheduling
third and final reading of its “Combating Terrorism Act” (Bill S-7) to
begin Monday and conclude this week. Bill S-7 gives the state vast new
powers. These include: the right to hold terrorism suspects for 72 hours
without charge, to convene “investigative hearings” at which those
believed to have information about an imminent terrorist attack are
stripped of their right to remain silent, and the power to place
restrictions for up to a year on the movements and rights of persons
deemed by the state to be terrorist suspects but against whom they have
insufficient evidence to lay charges. […]
US authorities have been quick to trumpet
the Canadian claims of a thwarted terrorist attack—claims that boost
their own efforts to portray North America as under siege from
terrorists and justify a vast expansion of the national-security
apparatus and coercive powers of the state. The US ambassador to Canada,
David Jacobson, issued a statement Monday saying the arrests of
Esseghaier and Jaser “were the result of extensive cross-border
cooperation” and had underscored “that we face serious and real
threats.” […]
At Monday’s press conference, the RCMP
asserted that Esseghaier and Jaser had acted under the “direction and
guidance” of “al-Qaeda elements located in Iran.”
The RCMP said that they had no evidence of Iranian government involvement. […]
The Harper Conservative government, which
has declared itself Israel’s strongest ally and has expanded Canada’s
decades’ old military-strategic alliance with Washington, broke off
diplomatic relations with Teheran last summer. In justifying this
action, Conservative Foreign Minister John Baird labeled Iran “the most
significant threat to global peace and security in the world today.”
(Keith Jones Canadian Government unveils “Terror Plot” as it Adopts Draconian New Law, World Socialist Web Site, April 24, 2013.)
We may recall a “terrorist plot” revealed in late November 2001.
According to mainstream reports, Ahmed Ressam, who was convicted of
plotting to bomb Los Angeles International Airport in 1999, had also
planned to bomb a Montreal area with “the most visible concentration of
Jews in Canada — a vibrant area of some 5,000 ultra-Orthodox Jews who
stand out because of their traditional outfits of black coats and hats
for men, long skirts and wigs for women. » (Ingrid Peritz, Montreal’s brush with terror, The Globe and Mail, November 30, 2001.)The Globe stated further:
Members of the Hasidic community in
Outremont responded with shock after hearing that Mr. Ressam and Samir
Ait Mohamed wanted to detonate a bomb in the area because it was
predominantly Jewish.
The stated choice of explosives — a bomb
on a gasoline truck — evoked the detonating power of the fuel-laden
planes that ripped through the World Trade Center. (Ibid.)
Samir Aït Mohamed happened to be a fake Algerian refugee and “an
informant for Canadian law-enforcement authorities [RCMP].” (Mike
Carter, Montreal bomb plot revealed in Ressam case documents, Seattle Times, November 30, 2001.)The Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) was also involved in a terrorist plot. Joseph Gilles Breault, a.k.a. Youssef Mouammar or Abou Djihad, had threatened to attack the Montreal metro with a biochemical weapon in 1998. He was a CSIS agent.
With that in mind, the latest RCMP “exploit” raises even more questions on this revived Al-Qaeda threat focused on Iran. Who’s behind Al-Qaeda in Iran?:
As the FBI reels from what now appears to be revelations it was directly involved in the Boston Marathon bombings,
a deluge of FBI “success” stories have been “serendipitously” splashed
across Western headlines. Among them was an allegedly “foiled” terror
attack in Canada, reported to be the work of terrorists supported by
“Al-Qaeda operatives in Iran.” The Globe and Mail, in its report, “Canada joins U.S. in alleging al-Qaeda has operatives based in Iran,” states:
[…] The Sunni-based al-Qaeda and Shia
Iran belong to different branches of Islam that have been at odds
historically. But in recent years U.S. officials have formally alleged
that Iran has allowed al-Qaeda members to operate out of its territory.”
[…] Hersh in his 2008 New Yorker piece titled, “Preparing the Battlefield: The Bush Administration steps up its secret moves against Iran,”
spelled out a damning indictment of US involvement in bolstering,
arming, and funding terror organizations, not linked to, but described
as actually being Al Qaeda [...]:
One of the most active and violent anti-regime groups in Iran today is the Jundallah,
also known as the Iranian People’s Resistance Movement, which describes
itself as a resistance force fighting for the rights of Sunnis in Iran.
“This is a vicious Salafi organization whose followers attended the
same madrassas as the Taliban and Pakistani extremists,” Nasr told me. “They are suspected of having links to Al Qaeda and they are also thought to be tied to the drug culture.”
The Jundallah took responsibility for the bombing of a busload of
Revolutionary Guard soldiers in February, 2007. At least eleven Guard
members were killed. According to Baer and to press reports, the Jundallah is among the groups in Iran that are benefiting from U.S. support. (Tony Cartalucci, Who is Behind “Al Qaeda in Iran”?, Global Research, April 23, 2013.)
Otherwise the brothers’ links to Chechen terrorists makes very little
sense, since the latter, like many other terrorist groups and/or
so-called freedom fighters depending on the strategy of the day, have
been supported by the US:
What is abundantly clear is that the US government is not committed to fighting terrorists.
Quite the opposite. US intelligence has
been recruiting and grooming terrorists for more than thirty years,
while at same time upholding the absurd notion that these terrorists,
who are bona fide CIA “intelligence assets”, constitute a threat to the
American Homeland. These alleged threats by “An Outside Enemy” are part
of a propaganda ploy behind the “Global War on Terrorism” (GWOT).
[...] The development of an Islamist
terrorist militia in different countries around the World is part of an
intricate US intelligence project.
While the Tsarnaev brothers are casually
accused without evidence of having links to Chechen terrorists, the
important question is who is behind the Chechen terrorists?
In an utterly twisted logic, the
protagonists of the ‘Global War on Terrorism” directed against Muslims
are the de facto architects of “Islamic terrorism.” (Michel
Chossudovsky, BOSTON TRUTH: The “Chechen Connection”, Al Qaeda and the Boston Marathon Bombings, Global Research, April 22, 2013.)
Even former US Ambassador Craig Murray says the “Chechen Connexion” story is surreal:
We are asked to believe that Tamerlan Tsarnaev was
identified by the Russian government as an extremist Dagestani or
Chechen Islamist terrorist, and they were so concerned about it that in
late 2010 they asked the US government to take action. At that time, the
US and Russia did not normally have a security cooperation relationship
over the Caucasus, particularly following the Russian invasion of
Georgia in 2008. For the Russians to ask the Americans for assistance,
Tsarnaev must have been high on their list of worries.
In early 2011 the FBI interview Tsarnaev
and trawl his papers and computers but apparently – remarkably for
somebody allegedly radicalised by internet – the habitually paranoid FBI
find nothing of concern.
So far, so weird. But now this gets
utterly incredible. In 2012 Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who is of such concern to
Russian security, is able to fly to Russia and pass through the airport
security checks of the world’s most thoroughly and brutally efficient
security services without being picked up.
He is then able to proceed to Dagestan –
right at the heart of the world’s heaviest military occupation and the
world’s most far reaching secret police surveillance – again without
being intercepted, and he is able there to go through some form of
terror training or further Islamist indoctrination. He then flies out
again without any intervention by the Russian security services.
That is the official story and I have no
doubt it did not happen. I know Russia and I know the Russian security
services. Whatever else they may be, they are extremely well-equipped,
experienced and efficient and embedded into a social fabric accustomed
to cooperation with their mastery.
This scenario is simply impossible in the real world. (Craig Murray, The Boston Bombings and the FBI: “Official Tsarnaev Story Makes No Sense”, 21st Century Wire, April 22, 2013.)
The idea that Tamerlan was, in fact, a US intelligence asset seems
closer to the truth, since according to a Russian newspaper, he attended
a US-sponsored workshop in the Caucasus, the goal of which was to
destabilize southern regions of Russia:
Today, Russian newspaper Izvestia alleges that the older Boston Tamarlan bombing brother attended a workshop – sponsored by an American organization – on destabilizing the Russian satellite states:
At the disposal of “Izvestia” has documents Counterintelligence Department Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia, confirming that the Georgian organization “Fund of Caucasus” [here's their website], which cooperates with the U.S. non-profit organization “Jamestown” (the board of directors of NGOs previously entered one of the ideologists of U.S. foreign policy, Zbigniew Brzezinski), was engaged in recruiting residents North Caucasus to work in the interests of the United States and Georgia.Overall, the Boston tragedy is clearly and sadly being exploited to revamp the “War on terror”, justify the police state apparatus in the US and other Western countries such as Canada, and legitimize attacks on our rights and liberties.
According to the reports of Colonel Chief Directorate Counterintelligence Department Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia Gregory Chanturia to the Minister of Internal Affairs Irakli Garibashvili, “Caucasian fund” in cooperation with the Foundation “Jamestown” in the summer of 2012 conducted workshops and seminars for young people of the Caucasus, including its Russian part. Some of them attended Tsarnaev Tamerlane, who was in Russia from January to July 2012.
“Caucasian fund” writes Tchanturia was established November 7, 2008, just after the Georgian-Ossetian conflict, “to control the processes taking place in the North Caucasus region.” Accordingly, the Department of the Interior Ministry counterintelligence case was brought intelligence operations called “DTV”. Main purpose is to recruit young people and intellectuals of the North Caucasus to enhance instability and extremism in the southern regions of Russia.
