ENDLESS FAKE TERROR ALERTS: FEAR BASED MIND CONTROL

By: Paul Joseph Watson

The ultimate form of control is fear and the fear that you could lose 
your life at any moment elicits a Pavlovian response towards those who 
claim they can protect you. Trauma based mind control is not a 
conspiracy theory and can be observed naturally after people have 
been subject to distress. The New World Order know this and that is 
why the U.S. and British governments issued a spate of fabricated 
terror alerts immediately after September 11 and continue to do so 
to this day. Concurrently we are reminded daily that it's not a matter 
of if but when the next large terrorist attack occurs. That is akin to 
a jail guard telling his boss that it's not a matter of if but when 
all the prisoners are going to escape.  

If the individuals who staff our intelligence agencies are unable to 
prevent large-scale terrorist attacks then they should be fired. And 
yet since September 11 nobody in a position of authority has been 
sacked and in fact the majority have received raises in addition to 
the millions of extra funding that has poured in to the FBI and CIA. 
They have been rewarded for their complicity in 9/11.  

In December 2002 Senator Charles Grassly, a Republican, described as 
a "slap in the face" and "shocking" a decision by FBI
director Robert 
Mueller to give an award for 'exceptional performance' to Marion "Spike" 
Bowman, head of the FBI's national security law unit. The award is 
officially titled 'Presidential Rank of Meritorious Service' and includes 
cash bonuses of between 20 percent or 35 percent of each recipient's 
base salary. Bowman was instrumental in calling FBI agents off the trail 
of Zacarias Moussaoui, the so-called '20th hijacker' whose arrest many 
analysts conclude would have cracked the September 11 plot before it 
was carried out. Grassly stated, "Unfortunately, this award continues a 
bad tradition. If the FBI is ever to reform, there must be accountability."  

The head of the State Department's consular service Mary Ryan was 
awarded $15,000 in October 2002 as part of an 'outstanding 
performance bonus'. Her office issued visas to 13 of the 19 suicide 
hijackers, giving them entry to the country. In addition, Thomas Furey, 
who was consul-general in the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, 
was also awarded a bonus. The Saudi embassy was named by former 
Consulate officer Michael Springman as a conduit for Al-Qaeda 
members hired for CIA terrorist training in the 80's.  

We have the dichotomy of the government being rewarded for protecting 
terrorists while at the same time issuing apocalyptic terror alerts. If I 
called in a hoax bomb threat to a government building I would rightfully 
be arrested and yet our governments have been doing the exact same 
thing on a larger scale without retribution.  

In May and June of 2002 watered down evidence of the Bush administration's
prior knowledge of the attacks emerged in the media. Despite the fact that 
the information was largely a whitewash it was still a source of 
embarrassment for a regime that had naively become used to saying and 
doing what it liked by dancing on the graves of the victims of 9/11. 
To shut down the dissenters and provide the media with a distraction 
to fill the headlines, the Bush administration released a hoaxed 
terror alert. They cautioned that terrorists had hatched plans to 
attack targets such as stadiums, nuclear power plants, shopping 
centers, synagogues, apartment houses, subways, and the Liberty 
Bell, the Brooklyn Bridge and other New York City landmarks.  

What's even more incredible than the hoax itself is that they openly 
admitted it! The Washington Times calmly reported,  

"The Bush administration issued a spate of terror alerts in recent days 
to mute criticism that its national security team sat on intelligence 
warnings in the weeks before the September 11 attacks. The warnings, 
including yesterday's uncorroborated FBI report that terrorists might 
target the Statue of Liberty, quieted some of the lawmakers who said 
President Bush failed to act on clues of the September 11 attacks, 
although Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle yesterday reiterated his 
demand for an independent investigation. The latest alerts were issued 
"as a result of all the controversy that took place last week," said Bush 
spokesman Ari Fleischer, referring to reports that the president received 
a CIA briefing in August about terror threats, including plans by Osama 
bin Laden's al Qaeda network to hijack U.S. commercial airliners."

All the 'conservative' news outlets tried to bury the story by claiming 
that it was Dan Rather's opinion that the White House was releasing 
fake terror alerts. They could then dismiss it as an empty liberal 
sideswipe, blatantly ignoring the Washington Times report and Ari 
Fleischer himself acknowledging it.  

In January of 2003 FBI and CIA whistleblowers told Capitol Hill Blue 
that the White House was scripting phony terror alerts to maintain 
hysteria, upkeep President Bush's approval ratings and milk extra 
defense funding. The report that five Pakistani men had entered the 
States via Canada and were planning on carrying out a dirty bomb or 
biological attack was completely conjured up by the Bush administration's
black propaganda office. New York Harbor was shut down to visibly pump 
up the fear. One of the named suspects, Mohammed Asghar (pictured left), 
was tracked down to Pakistan by the Associated Press. He was a fat 
guy running a jewellers shop and had never even been to America.  

World Net Daily commented,

"Other sources within the bureau and the Central Intelligence Agency 
said the administration is pressuring intelligence agencies to develop 
"something, anything" to support an array of non-specific terrorism 
alerts issued by the White House and the Department of Homeland 
SecurityaCHB reported that FBI and CIA sources said a recent White 
House memo listing the war on terrorism as a definitive political 
advantage and fund-raising tool is just one of many documents 
discussing how to best utilize the terrorist threat."

Making hoax threats to carry out terrorist acts is punishable by law 
under H.R. 3209. This legislation outlines that any party doing so will 
be liable for a fine of up to $250,000 and a prison sentence of up to 
five years. So why aren't the Democrats exposing the fact that the Bush 
administration is engaging in criminal activity? Democratic strategist 
Russ Barksdale gives us the answer,  

"Of course the White House is going to exploit the terrorism threat to 
the fullest political advantage, they would be fools not to. We'd do the 
same thing."

Days after this story broke and began to gain more attention, ABC 
News sprang into action and whitewashed the story so it could be 
safely swept under the carpet.  

They reported that the fake terror alert was a "mistake" as a result 
of an informant lying to the FBI, thus shifting the emphasis away from 
the FBI and CIA agents blowing the whistle on how the government was 
manufacturing evidence to heighten fear.  

To legitimize SWAT cops in Darth Vader masks pushing people around 
on street corners, the government needed to convince the people that 
this was a successful method of fighting terrorism. So it was that we 
saw a wave of arrests and break-ups of 'Al Qaeda cells' from Spain 
to Italy to England. Maybe there really were dangerous mass killers 
around every corner and the government really just wanted to protect 
us. Not quite. These arrests were subject to a blaze of publicity and 
headlined the evening news. However, after investigations found no 
evidence to justify detaining those arrested, their release warranted 
only a paragraph in the back of the newspaper. A plot to release cyanide 
in the London Underground was "foiled by MI5" and splashed across the 
front pages. The fact that no cyanide was ever found and most of the 
suspects were released within days was barely mentioned. Nine arrests 
were made under anti-terrorism laws and yet six of those detained were 
released within hours.  

In late January 2003, 28 Pakistani men were arrested in a raid in the 
Italian city of Naples. The headlines shrieked that the men were plotting 
assassinations and bombings of NATO targets. They had maps of London, the 
U.S. consulate and American naval bases. They were a definite 'Al-Qaeda 
terrorist cell' in possession of 800 grams of explosives, enough to blow 
up a three-story building. Despite all this unfolding in Italy, it made 
the top story on both American and British news for two days.  

Just two weeks later, the BBC quietly announced,

"An Italian judge has ordered the release of 28 Pakistani immigrants 
arrested on suspicion of planning terrorist attacks. The reasons for the 
order are unclear, but reports suggest little evidence was found against 
the men."

And so the story vanished.

In London, a plethora of arrests are made after police supposedly 
discover ingredients used to make the deadly ricin poison. Many 
suspects are later released and doubts emerge as to whether any 
actual ricin components were seized. The Algerian terrorist ring was 
said to have obtained the poison from a cave in Afghanistan, where 
large quantities were found. To know this was false took just a brief 
glance back in the archives and a story of March 2002. Under the headline 
"Britain accused on terror lab claim - Story of find in Afghan cave 'was 
made up' to justify sending marines" - the London Observer reported,  

"Britain was accused last night of falsely claiming that al-Qaeda 
terrorists had built a 'biological and chemical weapons' laboratory 
in Afghanistan to justify the deployment of 1,700 Royal Marines to 
fight there. The allegation follows a Downing Street briefing by a 
senior official to newspapers on Friday which claimed US forces had 
discovered a biological weapons laboratory in a cave in eastern 
Afghanistan after fighting near the city of Gardez this month."

The White House had to publicly admit that the story was fabricated 
to avoid deeper embarrassment because there was no actual evidence to 
support the claim. So the original source of the ricin was in actual 
fact based on a foundation of total fabrication.  

After a while the blatantly fake terror alerts that never preceded 
a terror attack were beginning to lose their gravity. People largely 
ignored them and were not imbued by fear. The next government threat 
had to be backed up by physical action.  

It was at this point that Homeland Security chief Tom Ridge announced 
that the Orwellian terrorism threat level had been raised to orange, 
one notch short of full out police state takeover. Armed police and 
the National Guard swarmed the streets of New York and Washington, 
helicopters and military jets patrolled the skies, Tony Blair considered 
putting troops on the streets of Britain, tanks were already rolling 
around Heathrow airport and the M25 motorway, airport screeners made 
sure more 70-year- old men took their shoes off to be searched. TV 
networks rabidly hijacked the fear and revelled in the panic, highlighting
interviews with people on the street commenting on how this downtown 
Beirut military occupation was acceptable because it was part of the 'new 
America' (or new Amerika). People were encouraged to buy first aid kits 
and duct tape to seal their windows.  

Yet again, there was no reliable information to indicate a potential 
terrorist attack (one not carried out by the CIA that is). Many observed 
that the alarm was merely a show of force to frighten the people into 
supporting an impending war on Iraq. The government was again 
terrorizing the citizens.  

The measures were put in place because the government had, once 
again, been lied to by their informants. Or so we're told. And 
once again, ABC News rushed out to whitewash the story,  

"The informant described a detailed plan that an al Qaeda cell operating 
in either Virginia or Detroit had developed a way to slip past airport 
scanners with dirty bombs encased in shoes, suitcases, or laptops, 
sources told ABCNEWS. The informant reportedly cited specific targets 
of government buildings and Christian or clerical centers. "This piece 
of that puzzle turns out to be fabricated and therefore the reason for a 
lot of the alarm, particularly in Washington this week, has been dissipated 
after they found out that this information was not true," said Vince 
Cannistraro, former CIA counter-terrorism chief and ABCNEWS 
consultant."

I don't believe for a second that the criminal CIA had at any point 
believed New York, Washington or Florida had been, according to this 
lying informant, targets of a dirty bomb attack. As we were warned 
before by the responsible FBI and CIA agents, the government was 
again scripting hysterics to bully us into submission. Even though 
the whole thing was admitted to be a false alarm, the orange terror 
threat status still remains in force days and weeks after.
