After nearly two years, Umar Farouk AbdulMutallab aka the Underwear Bomber, pleads guilty. Although this is not surprising, it is certainly very disappointing.
Detroit (CNN) — Umar Farouk AbdulMutallab, the Nigerian man accused of trying to detonate an explosive device in his underwear aboard a flight to Detroit, surprised courtroom officials and spectators on the second day of his trial Wednesday by pleading guilty to all the counts against him.
He previously had pleaded not guilty to the charges, which included attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction, conspiracy to commit an act of terrorism, and possession of a firearm or destructive device in furtherance of an act of violence.
We have seen through how investigators completely ignored the statement of Kurt Haskell, the only witness who heard the conversation between the “sharp dressed man” who accompanied the bomber, talking to airport security to allow the bomber to board the plane without a passport.
At one stage it even looked like Umar Farouk would call Kurt Haskell as a defence witness. But all that is over since defendant pleaded guilty.
It does look like there’s some kind of negotiation and/or torture that went behind the scenes. Here is article I posted in Feb last year.
It had to collapse sooner or later. Yeah, I am talking about the Underwear Bomber staged attempt.
After weeks of denial, pussyfooting and all sorts of stories from the authorities, they now want to make a plea deal with the suspect. Hey, you negotiate with terrorists? Oh, I forgot, he was never one. He was framed by the authorities.
DETROIT (WXYZ) – ABC News has learned that the man known as the Christmas Day underwear bomber is cooperating with authorities in what may be the first steps towards reaching a plea deal.
Sources tell ABC that officials are now checking out the information provided by Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab.
The screws are coming off the Lie Machine of the CIA and FBI. They can’t hold it any longer. Especially when the world now knows that Kurt Haskell, a first hand eye-witness, has been telling the world through a blog that the suspect had an accomplice – yet the authorities never followed up with that lead.
Looks like they now have to find a way to silence the Underwear Bomber just in case he talks too much.
Things are getting very interesting, isn’t it?
I will try to post more updates when I get them. Stay tuned.
Now we’ll never know the truth. What we know is that the truth is being concealed.
Once again, the video below is a reminder of the damning evidence of the complicity of the authorities. A video clip taken live from CNN, with a key witness telling the world the bomber went through the security gates without a passport, with the authorities’ knowledge! Now why didn’t the FBI and other investigating parties follow up on that?
Those of you who have been following my blog the last two years or so, will know that I have been following up with the Underwear Bomber case. Those of you who have not, you may get a brief intro to the case in my last post here – Underwear Bomber Update – trial begins and what an eye opening truth!
Kurt Haskell, the only witness to have heard the whole conversation between the “sharp dressed man” accompanying the bomber, and the counter staff at the boarding gate, was not called up by the court. In fact, for the nearly last two years, since the Underwear Bomber incident, investigators have not even followed up with his very incriminating statement against the airport security authorities. In the meantime, he was ignored by the main press. Or if he was quoted, it would be a misquote. Why is this so when he happens to be the only material witness who could tell how the bomber went through the gates without a passport?
Flashback – Kurt Haskell on CNN in Dec 2009, telling the world what he witnessed.
Here is an update from Haskell on his wife’s blog. Looks like the defence (ie the bomber himself) may call up Haskell as a witness.
Today was the day for final jury selection in the Underwear Bomber case. I watched some of it on Tuesday and I was interested to see which jurors were picked. The final jury was set to be picked today at 1:30. I adjusted my schedule so that I could be down there at 1:30 today. I had a trial a few blocks away that was due to last until around 1:00 today. My plan was to head over there when I finished my trial. As my trial was ending, I got the following text from my brother “I hear that you will be testifying in the underwear bomber case”. This was news to me as my status as a witness was undetermined as of Tuesday. I gave my brother a call and he said he heard on the radio, that stand-by Anthony Chambers said in court this morning that I would be testifying. While walking to Federal Court to watch final jury selection, I ran into someone that works with stand-by attorney Chambers. He told me that final jury selection was done as it didn’t take as long as expected. He also told me that it was Umar that said he would call me as a witness, not Chambers. He then said Chambers is right there, go talk to him and he pointed across the street. Chambers was standing on the sidewalk across the street. I talked to Chambers for a minute and we agreed to talk again soon. He said I won’t be testifying for approximately another month as the trial is supposed to be lengthy. I then headed back to my office and found out that I had messages from Fox National News and the A.P. I talked to Ed White from the A.P. on Tuesday and he misquoted me in the article he wrote. Specifically, Ed White asked what I though about Umar making outbursts in court. I said the following “I saw him before boarding and he never said anything, I’ve seen him in court several times, and I even saw him when he lit his fake bomb and his crotch was burning and he never makes a peep. This is totally out of character for him.” You can see how Ed White did a cut and paste job of my quote here:
http://www.ydr.com/crime/ci_19035789
Note that Ed White left out that I saw Umar before boarding and that he lit a fake bomb.
I talked to Ed White again today and told him that I would only talk to him if he didn’t twist my words around to mean something else. He agreed, but here is the hatchet job Ed White did to my interview with him today. Note that he says I have a “wild theory” among other things:
This is the last straw in my discussions with the media. The media is nothing but a 4th branch of the government. I will no longer talk to any of them except the alternative media that has been supportive all along.
Note, however, in the above article, Chambers indicates that I may be the only defense witness called. How ironic is it that I will have Umar’s life in my hands just as Umar had my life in his hands (or underwear) on Christmas Day 2009? I will be up to the task. I realize that some may not agree with me and may attempt to harm me. Nevertheless, I will speak the truth and not be intimidated. I will do this for the common good of all of the citizens of the United States. It is not often that I quote a passage from the bible, but I think it is appropriate here:
“And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
Incidentally, note Haskell’s words – “This is the last straw in my discussions with the media. The media is nothing but a 4th branch of the government. I will no longer talk to any of them except the alternative media that has been supportive all along.”
Those of you who think that America is the Land of the Free, where you can express self, you are dead wrong.
In the meantime, let’s hope that the truth will be out. I am sure the last two years or so must have been very trying for Haskell and his wife. We need more brave men and women like Mr and Mrs Haskell.
All along, the Mass Media like ABC, BBC, CNN, Fox, blah, blah, blah as well as CNA, ST, blah, blah, blah, are complicit in the lies spread by the warmongering nation of the United States of Terrormerica. US is known to have planned and executed clandestine ops around the world to justify war$ around the world.
But today, er I mean two days ago, the trial of an alleged terror bomber looks set to change that. Not only is the trial about the bomber himself, but also a trial about whether the truth itself has been hijacked. It is about whether the truth has been concealed by the Mainstream Mass Media from the American people, and from the people of the world. I will come to that later. In the meantime, let’s get on with the case in question.
Let the trial begin and truth be made known! -
The Underwear Bomber trial begins. Er, began… two days ago. If you recall, this case is about a Nigerian guy, who boarded a plane from Amsterdam. On the flight, it was alleged he tried to detonate a bomb, hidden in his underwear – hence, the term “Underwear Bomber”.
The bomb did not explode and passengers managed to subdue him. Well, that’s what the mainline story reports. Until you see that there are material evidence that the FBI omits. Like how, Kurt Haskell, the only key witness who saw how authorities allowed the bomber to board the plane without a passport!
Here’s the flashback. An article I posted in Jan 2010. That’s nearly two years ago.
Below is a video clip, taken off CNN, which implicates Security at Amsterdam Airport could be complicit in the attempted bombing. Also note the implied complicity of the CIA and FBI as well, that they are not following up with material leads from first hand witnesses.
View this clip while you still can, before it is forgotten, or worse, censored by the authorities.
What? No passport and the authorities allowed the bomber to pass through the gates? More alarmingly, why didn’t investigators follow up on this very important lead, as cited by Kurt Haskell, the ONLY material witness who witnessed this very “compelling evidence” event?
The Trial (as reported by the usual Maintream Media horse manure producer) -
Fast forward, and we now have the trial of the Underwear Bomber – minus the statements of the key witness, Kurt Haskell!
DETROIT, Michigan: A young Nigerian accused of trying to blow up a packed airliner bound for the United States on Christmas Day 2009 returns to court Monday to stand trial for one of Al-Qaeda’s biggest plots.
Jurors are to be selected this week before Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, popularly known as the underwear bomber, contests charges that he tried to kill nearly 300 people aboard a Northwest Airlines flight from Amsterdam to Detroit.
Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab aka The Underwear Bomber
Now why don’t the investigators follow up on the issue that this guy, in spite of the fact had no passport, was allowed to board the plane by the authorities at Amsterdam. It is not that he cheated the security system defeating it with covert and stealth means. He literally walked through security unobstructed!
Yes, you read that one right. Let me repeat. He literally walked through security gates without a passport, with the knowledge of security personnel!
Helloooo? Something fishy, huh? Even fishier is that the investigators are not following up this very important material lead!
“Trial within the trial”, the authentic news from the First Hand Witness himself -
As promised, here’s the trial within the trial, where the Mass Media’s coverage is questioned. Let’s hear what the man who witnessed the event himself, Kurt Haskell, has to say about the trial. This is what he penned down in his wife’s blog. (Coloured and bold highlights are mine.)
Yesterday, I went to the first day of jury selection in the underwear bomber case. I was the only passenger from the flight present. Lori could not attend as she had a hearing in Mt. Clemens that she could not get out of. The process involved picking 40 potential jurors to bring back on October 6, 2011. The selection of the jury will be made that day from the remaining 40 potential jurors. The process I witnessed involved the judge asking questions of each juror, then the prosecution asking questions and finally the defense asking questions. The prosecution and the defense were given 6 minutes each to question each juror. Only one juror was allowed in the courtroom at a time. I was in the courtroom when Umar arrived. When he entered he said “Great Mujahideen, Anwar is alive” referring to Anwar Al Awlaki and his reported recent death. He then said “We will wipe out the U.S., the cancer that is the U.S.” Judge Edmunds had not yet arrived. When Judge Edmunds got there, she told Umar he should dress better to make a better impression on the jurors. He was dressed in a white t-shirt as he always is. Umar said “I wanted to wear a Yemeni belt with a dagger, but nobody would let me”. Judge Edmunds then said “I don’t think you’ll be bringing a dagger into my courtroom”. Umar then said that he wanted to change and the court went into recess. Umar returned shortly thereafter and was dressed in a tan collared shirt and a black suit coat. When he entered the court this time he said “Allah Akbar Anwar is alive”. Judge Edmunds again was not in the courtroom. Jury questioning then began. I stayed for 4 hours and watched 18 jurors get questioned. Of the 18 that were questioned, 5 were sent home and 13 told to come back on October 6, 2011. Judge Edmunds indicated that either Umar or stand-by Attorney Chambers could question the jurors, but only one could question each juror. Umar only questioned one juror. He actually did a good job in questioning the one juror. He sounded intelligent and well spoken. The juror Umar questioned was juror #119, a 60 year old white female who stated that “I am concerned about being attacked after the verdict”. That is what Umar questioned her about. He wanted to know if she was concerned about being attacked after a guilty verdict or a not guilty verdict. She stated that she was concerned both ways. This juror was told to come back. What was most interesting to me was the type of questions asked by Judge Edmunds and Chambers. The following questions were asked multiple times with slightly different variations:
1. Do you think after listening to the evidence that you will be able to determine whether the Defendant actually possessed a “bomb”?
2. Do you realize that sometimes the media does not always report the truth?
Obviously, each of these questions points directly at what I’ve been saying for months. Umar was given a fake bomb and put on this plane intentionally to stage a false terrorist attack. Also, the question about the media indicates knowledge that the media has been complicit in the lie. I spoke to several reporters once again. They were from Reuters, AP, UPI, CNN, Detroit News, and a couple of others. Also, the Detroit Free Press reporter asked to talk to me and I said “Why? You never actually report anything that I say”. Sadly, the AP was the only one to report anything that I said. Here is a link to the article (The AP is used by several media outlets):
The CNN reporter did indicate that we would continue our interview on October 6, 2011. This time, as opposed to others, it seemed as if the reporters were starting to realize that my theory of events is indeed correct. I had more of them agreeing with me instead of grilling me over the evidence. This had not previously been the case. Also, I am now seeing a change in the language in regards to how this story is reported. Previously, articles would read, Umar is “being charged with attempting to detonate . . .” Now articles are stating that “The government says” Umar intended to blow up the plane . . .” This is a small but significant change. It shows that the media is now reporting that what the government says may not be what really happened. See this story for an example:
Note that none of the major media outlets reported anything in reference to the two questions I listed above, however, except for the live blog from the courthouse running on Freep.com, which only indicated the following:
12:17 p.m. “The media is taking a beating in juror interviews. The 15th person to be questioned for jury duty – a computer analyst for a major retailer — agreed with Edmunds that the media doesn’t always get it right. It’s the same response Edmunds got from other jurors, several of whom don’t read or listen to the news. But based on what she has seen and heard, she thinks Abdulmutallab is guilty. “I don’t believe that was an innocent act,” she said in response to Chambers’ questions.”
You can look at it here for now, but look quick as the Free Press is known for erasing evidence that supports the real story of events from its website:
Lastly, I did have a chance to talk to Chamber’s associate attorney for a minute and found out that my status as a witness is currently “undetermined”. That’s an improvement over what I thought it was. We agreed to meet in Chambers office soon. Final jury selection is tomorrow and I will be going down to watch the festivities. Sadly, this is the only way to find out what is really going on.
At last…the courts is also questioning if the Mainstream Media is telling the truth!
However, in spite of the judge’s knowledge that the media has been concealing the truth, the prosecution did not even see that Kurt Haskell, the ONLY WITNESS who saw how the bomber went through the security gates without a passport, with the full knowledge of Airport Authorities, was not even considered as a witness for this Underwear Bomber trial!
My gawd! Doesn’t this whole “war on terror” look more and more fake as time goes by?
Concluding Words -
I have always maintained that the United States of Terrormerica’s “war on terror” is nothing about terror, but about war$ in land of others, so as to usurp, pillage whatever resources those lands have to offer.
The Underwear Bomber is yet another fake show by the warmongers to instill fear in you, so that you will continue to support them in their war$ around the world.
>There’s some news update on the Underwear Bomber. In Dec 2009, Umar Farouk, the guy who hid a bomb in his underwear (hence the term ‘Underwear Bomber’), boarded a plane – without a passport. Underwear Bomber – More cover ups
How the heck he managed to get through security without his passport is a mystery.
Earlier this week Lori and I attended the pretrial conference for the Underwear Bomber (Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab). This was the second hearing we attended and we plan on attending all other future hearings if our schedule allows. The hearing was pretty uneventful. One point of note to indicate Umar’s state of mind was made during the hearing. Judge Edmunds asked him if he had any current concerns. His response had nothing to do with him being sentenced to life in prison, evidence, his need for an attorney, etc. His response was that he wasn’t being given commissaries that he wanted in prison and also that the prison would not let him have a certain magazine subscription. Does this sound like someone in the right frame of mind to defend himself in a trial of this magnitude?
Secondly, and more importantly, was something that I discovered about the Detroit Free Press. As most of you know, the Free Press is the main newspaper here in Detroit. Before the hearing this week, I went on the Free Press website to check something about the Underwear Bomber case. What I discovered was pretty astounding. The two main articles that support my theory of the real events of this case have been erased from the Free Press website. I have written previously blog posts about each article. The first one can be found here:
Anyone following this blog knows that my theory on this case is that an agent of the U.S. Government escorted Umar through security without a passport and provided him with an intentionally defective bomb in order to stage a fake terrorist attack on the flight that I was on (Please read previous blog posts for more information and evidence that supports my conclusion). The first erased article talks about how the prosecution requested a hearing to block Umar’s stand-by attorney Anthony Chambers from obtaining evidence in the case. I have to ask, why would the prosecution do this? Isn’t this an open and shut case with nearly 300 eyewitnesses? Obviously, this article clearly supports my conclusion that the U.S. Government is hiding the real story and the evidence must support this conclusion.
The second erased article talks about how stand-by attorney Anthony Chambers stated that the U.S. Government’s own explosives experts indicate that the bomb was defective and could not have blown up. Again, this is another article that has mysteriously been erased by the Free Press. Why would the U.S. Government not want this story out there? Obviously, it would be hard for anyone to believe that Umar went through all the trouble to go to Yemen and have a bomb sewn in his underwear, travel back to Nigeria, then Amsterdam, then Detroit, only to have the bomb have no chance of detonating. It is much easier to believe that the U.S. Government supplied Umar with a fake bomb as it did(admittedly) with the Portland Christmas Tree Bomber and the Wrigley field Bomber.
Strangely enough, all other mundane articles about the Underwear Bomber going back to 2009 remain on the Free Press website. This is not a case of the Free Press erasing old articles. This is a case where the Free Press hand picked explosive articles that go against the official story in an attempt to hide the truth from the American public.
This is not the first problem that I’ve had with the Free Press. I have done numerous interviews with it only to have the articles, or any mention of anything I stated, not get reported. As a matter of fact, at the hearing in late January 2011, I did a 15 minute interview with a Free Press reported. Despite the fact that her article appeared in the Free Press the next day, she did not mentioned me or her interview with me in any way.
For anyone that believes we have a free press in this country please provide me with a reasonable explanation of what has occurred here with the Detroit Free Press. It certainly appears to me that we have blatant censorship by one of the largest newspapers in the U.S. Sadly, it also appears, that the media is nothing but a 4th branch of the U.S. Government. The sole purpose of the media is obviously to get paid to spew propaganda to the unfortunate U.S. citizens that have yet to awaken.
Haskell is the ONLY witness who heard the conversation between the “sharp dressed man” and the airport ticket counter employee. The conversation was that Umar Farouk had no passport. Yet, he was eventually allowed to board the plane. Also note Haskell’s claim that the press censored some of his key points as a witness. A clear sign of cover up by the authorities.
Obviously, this is a staged attempt. This incident occurred in Dec 2009. It looks like the war hawks are drumming up this “war on terror” stuff to scare you into supporting their odious wars around the world.
WASHINGTON – US INVESTIGATORS were reviewing a videotape of the accused underwear bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab apparently receiving weapons training before he allegedly tried to blow up a US airliner, Attorney General Eric Holder said on Tuesday.
ABC News broadcast the videotape on Monday in which Abdulmutallab, originally from Nigeria, made an apparent martyrdom statement in Arabic and also appears holding a machine gun at a desert training camp. ABC News said the video was produced by Al-Qaeda in Yemen.
‘We’ll be looking at all of the information, all the evidence that is uncovered and going through with him much of this information so that we can glean actionable intelligence,’ Mr Holder told reporters in response to a question about the tape.
Mr Holder said he had seen the videotape, which shows others at the training camp, but some of them had their faces blurred or covered. It also shows bullets being fired into a flag with ‘UN’ written on it and another one with a Jewish star on it.
In the video, Abdulmutallab says Muslims in the Arabian Peninsula ‘have the right to wage Jihad because the enemy is in your land.’ On Christmas Day last year, Abdulmutallab tried but failed to blow up a US commercial flight from Amsterdam to Detroit with a device hidden in his underwear, US officials said.
While charged with the alleged bombing attempt, he is now cooperating with investigators. He has previously told investigators he was trained by militants in Yemen affiliated with Al-Qaeda and that they gave him the bomb. — REUTERS
Here’s the video from Youtube. Note that this was screened on Fox News. Say….how do these Mainstream Media keep getting these terror clips, when even the FBI and CIA have trouble getting hold of them?
New Video ‘Reportedly’ Shows Underwear Bomber Abdulmutallab
- Anti-Israel, anti-US, anti-Brit (the three most warsome and warmongering nations). A propaganda by Western media to whip up sentiments among Americans, Israelis and Brits to support the unpopular wars in Afghanistan and Iraq?
- Jews and Christians the main target of the Muslim terrorists. Another pathetic attempt by the media to get Christians to support the war?
- Yemen implicated in supporting and training the Underwear Bomber. We all know that Yemen is yet another possible war target. Ooooh, did you see the huge shoreline Yemen has, perfect for all the oil distribution? $$$$$$
- The stress on the Big Baaad Al-CIAda, oops, I mean Al-Qaida, training these terrorists to hate America when they are still young.
- And of course, let’s play up how baaaaad these Mozlems from the Ayrab region are, always hating Americuns, Brits and Joos. So let’s flash the Islamophobic card again.
Step by Step Walk Through Account of the Truth -
Now let’s move away from all the propaganda above and study the Truth. I have been following up the Underwear Bomber Case, because I know for sure, based on past experiences of other terror attacks (911 and London’s 7/7 included), how the truth gets obscured over time. So let’s walk through the Underwear Bomber Case.
Note that in the first video in the link, the Underwear Bomber had no passport. He had an accomplice who helped him board the flight in spite he had no passport. Note the complicity of authorities involved in order to have him boarded that flight. Also note that there was a key witness, Kurt Haskell, who saw the accomplice, but the authorities did not follow up with that very important lead he gave.
First sign of a cover up by the authorities that this “terror” attempt is staged?
7 Jan 2010 – Story changes again! This time, a complete denial on the part of authorities of the key witness’ account that the Underwear Bomber had no passport, and that an accomplice was with him. Underwear Bomber – More Twists
11 Jan 2010 – Breaking News. Israeli Company was manning the Dutch airport that let the bomber through! Yet no investigation made on this company! Even more bizarre is the fact that this was the SAME ISRAELI COMPANY that manned all the airports where the hijacked 911 planes took off! Underwear Bomber – It was Israeli Security Firm that let bomber through!
29 Jan 2010 – Frustrated at being silenced, Kurt Haskell, the only key witness who heard the conversation between the bomber’s accomplice and airport authorities who let the bomber through without a passport, speaks up on his wife’s blog. Underwear Bomber – Key Witness Speaks up on his blog
4 Feb 2010 – Media blacks out US complicity in the Underwear Bomber Case. Yeah, of course. The pressure is tremendous, especially after Kurt Haskell puts up his story on the internet. Underwear Bomber – Media blacks out US Complicity
That was about the last we heard from the Underwear Bomber in the news. After nearly three months, magically a video clip of him training as a terrrorist appears. Yes, two to three months is about right, when people forget that the Underwear Bomber was probably set up by the authorities.
So aren’t all these American Lies unfolding right before our eyes?
That aside, isn’t strange that all these videos on terror training and announcements from Osama been Dead (yet still able to talk) always keep popping up in mainstream news, yet, the CIA and FBI somehow appear clueless at getting leads?
Either the mainstream media’s intelligence efforts is much superior than the CIA’s and FBI’s or this looks like a wholly staged event.
Other “Terror” Events -
Let’s make a comparison of the Underwear Bomber Case with other “terror” incidents and see how alike they are. The complicity on the part of the authorities, that is.
911 - Major leads like foreknowledge were completely ignored by authorities. There was a spike in the purchase of put options on American Airlines and United Airlines days before 911, indicating punters hoped to benefit on the falling stock prices of the two airlines. Why was this lead not followed up? There were also reports that certain companies warned their employees to stay away from WTC. Why was this lead not followed up?
London 7/7 - There were reports that Benjamin Netanyahu was informed by Scotland Yard to stay in his hotel on the morning of the blasts. That advice saved Netanyahu’s life. Why did not the media follow up on this report? There was also drastic shorting of the Sterling Pound days before 7/7, indicating investors were prepared to make big bucks due to some dire economic and/or political events that would affect Britain. Why was this lead not followed up?
Mumbai Terror Attack - There were pictures of a young terrorist wearing a red wristband, indicating he was a Hindu rather than a Muslim. Yet the media did kept playing up the youth who held the weapon was a Muslim, in spite of many who highlighted the red wristband giveaway. Media complicity in trying to stage a terror attack?
Underwear Bomber - Of course, we now know that Kurt Haskell, the only person to have witnessed the conversation between the bomber’s accomplice and airport authorities who let him through without a passport, has been silenced by both the CIA and the mass media.
Note the glaring similarities?
Let’s once again recall who are the funders of these terrorists.
- Osama bin Laden, alleged mastermind of 911, agent of the CIA.
- Haroon Aswat, alleged mastermind of London’s 7/7, agent of MI6, UK Secret Service.
- David Headley, key suspect in Mumbai Bomb Blast, employee of US Drug Enforcement Agency.
Any guesses which government agency from US or UK is behind the Underwear Bomber Case?
>The US governmental agencies in charge of security and terrorism are trying very hard to conceal the truth from us. But slowly and surely, more and more cover ups are being exposed.
A January 27 hearing of the House Committee on Homeland Security established that US intelligence agencies stopped the State Department from revoking the US visa of Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab. The Nigerian student, whom US officials suspected of being affiliated with the Yemeni terrorist group Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, attempted to set off a bomb on Northwest Flight 253 into Detroit on Christmas Day. Revocation of Abdulmutallab’s visa would have prevented him from boarding the airplane.
The hearing was reported in a brief article posted January 27 on the web site of the Detroit News, headlined, “Terror Suspect Kept Visa to Avoid Tipping Off Larger Investigation.”
The revelation that US intelligence agencies made a deliberate decision to allow Abdulmutallab to board the commercial flight, without any special airport screening, has been buried in the media. As of this writing, nearly a week after the hearing, the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Postand Los Angeles Times have published no articles on the subject. Nor have the broadcast or cable media reported on it.
This is despite—or perhaps more accurately, because of—the fact that this information exposes the official government story of the near-disaster to be a lie. President Obama, who has joined with top US intelligence, FBI and Homeland Security officials to insist that Abdulmutallab was inadvertently allowed to board the plane carrying explosives because of a failure to “connect the dots,” has from the start been deceiving the American people.
The official line strained credulity from the outset, given reports of multiple advance warnings that the Nigerian student was linked to terrorists in Yemen who were planning attacks on the US.
From the above report, there was a DELIBERATE attempt to allow the underwear bomber to board the plane by intelligence security even when they know he was a security threat. Why would they do that?
So when Obama said that US agencies “failed to connect the dots” and allowed the underwear bomber on the plane, it was a big, fat lie.
The US govt (and the media) has been lying to us all along.
>It had to collapse sooner or later. Yeah, I am talking about the Underwear Bomber staged attempt.
After weeks of denial, pussyfooting and all sorts of stories from the authorities, they now want to make a plea deal with the suspect. Hey, you negotiate with terrorists? Oh, I forgot, he was never one. He was framed by the authorities.
DETROIT (WXYZ) – ABC News has learned that the man known as the Christmas Day underwear bomber is cooperating with authorities in what may be the first steps towards reaching a plea deal.
Sources tell ABC that officials are now checking out the information provided by Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab.
The screws are coming off the Lie Machine of the CIA and FBI. They can’t hold it any longer. Especially when the world now knows that Kurt Haskell, a first hand eye-witness, has been telling the world through a blog that the suspect had an accomplice – yet the authorities never followed up with that lead.
Looks like they now have to find a way to silence the Underwear Bomber just in case he talks too much.
Things are getting very interesting, isn’t it?
I will try to post more updates when I get them. Stay tuned.
>Hey, I found the man. The key witness in the Underwear Bomber case. Well, not exactly found him, but found his wife’s blog.
Kurt Haskell, the only known first hand witness (so far) who is willing to speak up to say the bomber had no passport, yet boarded the plane, is now publishing his story in wife’s blog to tell the world the truth.
***Please note that in the article that follows, I am not claiming that the U.S. Government knew Mutallab had a bomb or intended to hurt anyone on Flight 253 when the U.S. Government let him board.
Since our flight landed on Christmas Day, Lori and I have been doing everything in our power to uncover the truth about why we were almost blown up in the air over Detroit. The truth is now finally out after the publication of the following Detroit News article:
“Patrick F. Kennedy, an undersecretary for management at the State Department, said Abdulmutallab’s visa wasn’t taken away because intelligence officials asked his agency not to deny a visa to the suspected terrorist over concerns that a denial would’ve foiled a larger investigation into al-Qaida threats against the United States.
“Revocation action would’ve disclosed what they were doing,” Kennedy said in testimony before the House Committee on Homeland Security. Allowing Adbulmutallab to keep the visa increased chances federal investigators would be able to get closer to apprehending the terror network he is accused of working with, “rather than simply knocking out one solider in that effort.”‘
Now it all becomes apparent. Let me detail everything we know about the “Sharp Dressed Man” (SDM).
1. While being held in Customs on Christmas Day, I first told the story of the SDM.
2. My story has never changed.
3. The FBI visited my office on December 29, 2009, and showed me a series of approximately 10 photographs. None were of the SDM. I asked the FBI if they brought the Amsterdam security video to help me identify the SDM, but they acted as though my request was ridiculous. The FBI asked me what accent the SDM spoke in and I indicated that he had an American accent similar to my own. I further indicated that he wore a tan suit without a tie, was Indian looking, around age 50, 6’0″ tall and 250-260 lbs. I further indicated that I did not believe that he was an airline employee and that he was not on our flight.
4. During the first week of January, 2010, Dutch Military Police and the FBI indicated that over “200 Hours” of Amsterdam airport security video had been reviewed and it “Shows Nothing”.
5. The mainstream media picked up the “Shows nothing” story, which slanders my story. After visiting my office twice for a flight 253 special, Dateline NBC and Chris Hanson indicated that my story was “Unsubstantiated rumor dispelled as myth” and our story did not air during the tv special.
6. On January 2, 2010, I receive a call from a flight 253 passenger who indicated to me that it may be in my best interest to stop talking publicly about the SDM because he believes I am “wrong” in what I saw. He did not make any claim that he saw the SDM boarding gate incident at all. This call was made out of the blue after he made a “revelation” of this event on January 1, 2010. I later discover that this caller has ties to the U.S. Government.
7. On January 20, 2009, current Director of the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC), Michael E. Leiter, made a startling admission. Leiter indicated that: “I will tell you, that when people come to the country and they are on the watch list, it is because we have generally made the choice that we want them here in the country for some reason or another.”
8. On January 22, 2010, CongressDaily reported that intelligence officials “have acknowledged the government knowingly allows foreigners whose names are on terrorist watch lists to enter the country in order to track their movement and activities.”
CongressDaily also reported, citing an unnamed “intelligence official” that Michael E. Leiter’s statement on January 20, 2010, reflected government policy and told the publication, “in certain situations it’s to our advantage to be able to track individuals who might be on a terrorist watch list because you can learn something from their activities and their contacts.”
9. On Janury 22, 2009, ABC News published an article that shoed a change of position in the government’s official story. Please see the following blog post for more information:
The U.S. government provided no explanation for the reason my story was initially discounted.
10. The SDM could not be from Al Qaeda. When speaking at the counter in Amsterdam, the SDM said the following “He is from Sudan, we do this all the time”. Who is “we”? If it is Al Qaeda, you surely don’t make such a statement to an airposrt security official.
11. The SDM could not be from airport security. The SDM did not dress in any secuirty uniform and did not appear to have any security badge. The SDM did not speak with a Dutch accent. The SDM dressed in a suit coat and pants. If the SDM was a higher up security official, he would not have to convince the ticket agent to let Mutallab on the plane without a valid passport. Instead, he would just order her to do it.
12. Could the SDM have been a U.S. Government official? He dressed in a suit and not a security uniform. Check. He indicated we do this all the time. Could “we” be the U.S. Government? Check. He spoke Enlish with an American accent. Check. Would he need to convice the ticket agent that this was a normal procedure to allow boarding without a passport? Check. Would he have the ability to obtain such clearance? Check. Could he enter this security area even though he wasn’t a passenger? Check. Would the ticket agent likely refer this request to a manager? Check. Would the U.S. Government not want this information public and try to hide it? Check.
13. The Amsterdam security video has not been released. A much more minor airport security violation occurred at the Newark New Jersay airport several days after the flight 253 incident. That video was released shortly thereafter. 14. Senators Levin and Stabenow, as well as Congressman Dingle, all refuse to discuss the matter with me.
With the information we already knew and the admission from the above referenced Detroit News article, we have evidence and claims made by government officials that the U.S. Government wanted Mutallab to proceed into the U.S. in order to obtain information on other terrorists involved with him. Once we take this statement and add it to my eyewitness account of a “Sharp Dressed Man” escorting Mutallab through the boarding process and allowing him to baord without a valid passport we can make the connection that the “Sharp Dressed Man” was a U.S. Government offical/agent.
The reasoning behind the following events now becomes very clear:
1. The reason Mutallab got through security despite the numerous warnings for months before our flight.
2. The reason why there have been so many lies from the U.S. Governemnt attempting to discredit my eyewitness account.
3. The reason why the Amsterdam airport security video is being hidden from the public.
4. The reason why the government is proposing a “Failed to Connect the Dots” account of the failure. The truth is too damning.
5. The reason why Mr. Wolf of the Obama administration indicated on the Keith Olberman Show that the White House was investigating a possible “intentional act” from within the U.S. Government as the reason for the Christmas Day attack.
6. The explanation for the cameraman and why he hasn’t been identified (Obviously, he was another U.S. Government agent) whose job was to film Mutallab for some governmental purpose.
7. The reason for the lax security after landing, which can be attributed to foreknowledge of the possible suspects involved.
8. The reason for the failure to search or secure the plane and passengers after landing, which can also be attributed to foreknowledge of the possible suspects involved.
9. The corporate media’s attempt to bury my eyewitness account.
10. Carl Levin’s, Debbie Stabenow’s and John Dingle’s intentional avoidance of my story and failure to return my calls/emails. 11. Janet Naploitano’s statement that “The System Worked”. From her point of view it probably did as this WAS PART OF THE SYSTEM!

Eyewitness Kurt Haskell’s description of accomplice vindicated after weeks of denial
Authorities have quietly reversed the official story behind the Christmas Day underwear bomber attack and acknowledged that an accomplice was involved, despite weeks of denial and derision of eyewitness Kurt Haskell’s description of a sharp-dressed man who helped Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab board Flight 253 in Amsterdam.
Buried in the last two paragraphs of a story about alleged female suicide bombers coming from Yemen, an ABC News report contains the following bombshell.
“Federal agents also tell ABCNews.com they are attempting to identify a man who passengers said helped Abdulmutallab change planes for Detroit when he landed in Amsterdam from Lagos, Nigeria.”
“Authorities had initially discounted the passenger accounts, but the agents say there is a growing belief the man have played a role to make sure Abdulmutallab “did not get cold feet.”
Detroit lawyer Kurt Haskell maintained from the beginning that he saw a well-dressed Indian man aid the accused bomber to board the plane despite the fact that he had no passport and was on a terror watch list.
“While Mutallab was poorly dressed, his friend was dressed in an expensive suit, Haskell said. He says the suited man asked ticket agents whether Mutallab could board without a passport. “The guy said, ‘He’s from Sudan and we do this all the time,’” reported the Michigan Live news website.
Earlier this month, I posted about this eye-witness, Kurt Haskell, who said he witnessed an accomplice who helped the Underwear Bomber boarded the plane without a passport. Here is that post: Underwear Bomber – More cover ups
This is the video clip of the interview again, showing Haskell being interviewed on CNN. Pay attention from the 0:40 min mark onwards.
When you cook up stories to lie, your story will have holes and will not be consistent. That’s the reason why the Underwear Bomber Official Story keeps changing – as with other “war on terror” stories, as always.
The Israeli firm ICTS International (not to be confused with ICTS Europe, which is a different company), and two of its subsidiaries are at the crux of an international investigation in recent days, as experts try to pinpoint the reasons for the security failure that enabled Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab to board Northwest flight 253 and attempt to set alight explosives hidden in his underwear.
A Haaretz investigation has learned that the security officers and their supervisor should have suspected the passenger, even without having early intelligence available to them.
At this time, ICTS and the Dutch security firm G4S are hurling recriminations at each other, as are the authorities at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam, the Federal Aviation Authority and U.S. intelligence officials.
The failure was a twin flop: An intelligence failure, which U.S. President Barack Obama has already stated, in the poor handling of information that arrived at the State Department and probably also the CIA from both the father of the would-be bomber and the British security service; and a failure within the security system, including that of the Israeli firm ICTS.
The ICTS daughter company, I-SEC, has another daughter company – called PI (Pro-Check International). The firms provide security services to airports: consultation, instruction, training, inspection and supervision.
Two decades ago, ICTS adopted the system used in Israel, namely of profiling and assessing the degree to which a passenger is a potential threat on the basis of a number indicators (including age, name, origin and behavior during questioning). At the same time, a decade ago, the company developed a technological system called APS (Advanced Passenger Screening).
This system is based on a computerized algorithm, and is fed passenger information from the airline company. The system was offered to the Israel Airports Authority and the Shin Bet in the past, but rejected. According to the company’s Web site, most of the large airlines in the United States use the system.
However – in real time – the system of ICTS failed. Even if U.S. intelligence failed and the name of the Nigerian passenger was not pinpointed as a suspect for the airline, he should have stirred the suspicion of the security officers. His age, name, illogical travel route, high-priced ticket purchased at the last minute, his boarding without luggage (only a carry on) and many other signs should have been sufficient to alert the security officers and warrant further examination of the suspect.
However, the security supervisor representing I-SEC and PI allowed him to get on the flight.
ICTS was established in 1982 by former members of the Shin Bet and El Al security. Menachem Atzmon, who has been chairman of the board of directors since 2004, holds the controlling shares in the firm.
The ICTS headquarters are in the Netherlands and the company is traded in the New York Stock Exchange. Some senior managers are Israeli, including the joint managing director Ran Langer.
Another important figure is Doron Zicher, general manager of I-SEC. Zicher has been in charge of operations in the Netherlands for more than two decades and has served as adviser to the Dutch Justice Ministry, which is responsible for setting guidelines for airport security.
The company prides itself on employing 1,300 persons and providing security services to airports in 11 countries including France, Britain, Spain, Hungary, Romania and Russia.
This SAME Israeli company that allowed the Underwear Bomber to pass through the Airport Security at Amsterdam is the SAME company that ran the security at ALL the 911 Airports in the US. Go figure.
It’s one of those times when an innocuous comment in an unrelated news report triggers a revelation. In the article at http://afrocubaweb.com/news/israelispying.htm there is the following paragraph:
“To make the situation worse, a private security company called ICTS, owned by an Israeli, Ezra Harel, and registered in the Netherlands, was employed at Charles de Gaulle airport to screen passengers boarding US planes. Most of its personnel are ex-Shin Bet officers. The company covers security at Boston’s Logan airport, where the American Airlines plane came down after flight attendants and passengers overpowered Reid.”
The point of the article was that ICTS knew shoe bomber Richard Reid was dangerous, but allowed him on board a flight from Tel Aviv to Paris. Maybe they did and maybe they didn’t. But the idea that an Israeli owned company had inside access to the airport used to launch an abortive terror attack brought to mind the strange message Odigo Systems, another Israeli owned company with offices near the World Trade Towers, received that warned of the impending attacks before the hijacked planes had even left the ground.
Also note that this SAME Israeli Company allowed the Shoe Bomber to pass through Airport Security too!
What’s that claim that Israel might well be involved in the 911 Terror Attacks again?
