I have had the time to read more about Northwest Flight 253, which Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab allegedly tried to blow up on Christmas Day. There seems to be much evidence to suppose that this is another false flag terror attack, either to perpetuate the ‘War on Terror’ or to soften up the public to accept a war in Yemen, where Abdulmutallab is said to have been trained by al Qaeda.

Gordon Brown has called an international crisis meeting for the end of the month,

Mr Brown said: “In the past week, we have been exposed to an evolving terrorist threat and reminded of the importance of a major new base for terrorism.

“These enemies of democracy and freedom – now trying to mastermind death and destruction from Yemen as well as other better-known homes of international terror such as Pakistan and Afghanistan – are concealing explosives in ways which are more difficult to detect.

“So the failed attack in Detroit on Christmas Day reminds us of a deeper reality; that almost 10 years after September 11th international terrorism is still a very real threat.

“Al Qaeda and their associates continue in their ambition to indoctrinate thousands of young people around the world with a deadly desire to kill and maim.

“Our response in security, intelligence, policing and military action, is not just an act of choice but an act of necessity.”

There may be a few hundred terrorists in Yemen, so no doubt our inglorious leaders will recommend bombing the whole country back to the Stone Age; for our security, of course, and to benefit the people of Yemen. Believe that and I’ve got a bridge I want to sell you.

There is very strong evidence for foul play. Consider this,

On 19th November, the father of Abdulmutallab, the alleged underwear bomber, went to the US Embassy and warned them about his son and the possible danger he posed after having been radicalised in the Yemen. Mr Mutallab had just retired from a major banking role, so would have been taken seriously.

The bomber managed to fly to Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam without a passport. He managed to avoid going through customs. How is this possible without help from security?

Michigan attorney Kurt Haskell and his wife were on the Detroit bound flight and they say another man tried to help the bomber board the plane in Amsterdam. Mr Haskell insists that the authorities are lying about what happened,

Seriously think about this people. You have a suicide bomber who had recently been to Yemen to buy a bomb, whose father had reported him as a terrorist, who supposedly was on some kind of U.S. terror watchlist, and most likely knew the U.S. was aware of these red flags. Yet, he didn’t go through “Normal passport checking procedures.” What does that mean? Maybe that he flashed a passport to some sort of sympathetic security manager in a backroom to avoid a closer look at the terrorist’s “red flags”? What is important is that the terrorist avoided using normal passport checking procedures (apparently successfully) in order to avoid a closer look into his red flags. Who cares if he had a passport. The important thing is that he didn’t want to show it and somehow avoided a closer inspection and “normal passport checking procedures.” Each passport comes with a bar code on it that can be scanned to provide a wealth of information about the individual. I would bet that the passport checking procedures for the terrorist did not include a bar code scan of his passport (which could have revealed damning information about the terrorist).

There are other issues to be concerned about. Two of the most dangerous detainees at Guantánamo were released by the Bush Administration to their Saudi friends. The Saudis give therapy, including art lessons, to terrorists to try to rehabilitate them back into civilised society; not that Saudi Arabia can be described as civilised.

Unsurprisingly, this programme has not been 100% successful and some of the former terrorists have gone down to Yemen to rejoin the fight for Allah.

As usual with these matters, there are alleged links to Israel generally and Mossad in particular. It has been claimed that a cell of terrorists in Yemen is linked to Israeli security forces. Mossad allegedly trains Nigeria’s security services and an Israeli company runs security at Schiphol Airport.

Whatever the truth, the official story is not it.
