Tenet's
Resignation Substantiates
Allegations Of Assassination Plot
|
|
4th June
2004
by Simon
Aronowitz
|
|
George Tenet's
resignation surprised many in the USA yesterday. According to the Guardian
newspaper, even Dick Cheney, Colin Powell and Condoleeza Rice were
only informed yesterday morning in a meeting with President Bush.
Readers of a little known website, however, knew last Tuesday 25th May
that George Tenet's resignation was imminent.
The story
publicly available at ThoughtCrimeNews.com
advised readers that the resignation of Tenet, as well as those of
Colin Powell and Richard Armitage, were inevitable. It further
alleged, according to information provided, that the Bush
Administration trio were to resign because their involvement in a plot
to assassinate President Bush, and perhaps others, had been uncovered.
ThoughtCrimeNews
understandably hedged somewhat with the story, leaving events to
confirm the veracity of its sources' claims, not all of which have
been published. Readers of the story from Tuesday will, however, have
more of an idea of the true reasons for George Tenet's departure than
the White House press corps.
Some observers
are now privately predicting that Powell and Armitage will resign
together next week. Should they both resign as predicted, many
internet news-hounds will see the Bush administration shake-up very
differently from the view taken by the mainstream media. Despite
numerous allegations against Tenet regarding possible involvement in
the 9/11 attacks, of covering up the real extent of Iraqi WMD and of
having involvement in the `Abu Ghraib photographs', his explanation
that he was going for personal reasons seems to be accepted at face
value by the unquestioning mainstream media.
Tenet is quoted
as saying ``It was a personal decision, and had only one basis in
fact: the well being of my wonderful family, nothing more and nothing
less.'' He did not resign over any of the failures or other black-ops
over which he presided. No director of the CIA is an angel but Tenet
in particular was at the helm whilst some of the America's darkest
days have become chapters in its history books. Despite all of this,
he plainly felt it unnecessary to answer for anything that happened on
his watch.
Tenet's sudden
desire to attend to the well being of his family may give rise to
speculation that he was advised of the merits of resigning quietly,
rather than fight a rear-guard action. Whilst the version of events
presented here may seem preposterous to some, it should be noted that
only 10 days ago it would have seemed far-fetched to many observers
the suggestion that George Tenet would resign before the 2004
Presidential election at all. Yet yesterday he resigned earlier than
anyone expected, citing his personal reasons.
Speculation has
now shifted to who the replacements may be. James Woolsey is tipped to
replace George Tenet at the CIA. One source told us "The smart
money's on him. Woolsey would be a bi-partisan favourite, having first
served as Director of the CIA under Bill Clinton." Other
suggestions include John Bolton replacing Powell at the State
Department.
The inevitable
cycle and agenda of the news organisations will ensure that neither
Tenet's activities at Langley nor his reason for leaving will be
scrutinised. Once again, it would seem that the internet has managed
to scoop the mainstream media. Unfortunately, those who only read the
papers will never know.

Tenet,
Powell and Armitage to go - EXCLUSIVE
25th May
2004 - Update
by Simon
Aronowitz
|
|
Sources
close to the Bush administration have informed ThoughtCrimeNews that
CIA Director, George Tenet, Secretary of State, Colin Powell and
Deputy Secretary of State, Richard Armitage, will be forced to resign
their positions, possibly before the end of this week.
Whilst
some would consider Tenet, Powell and Armitage to be team players in
George W Bush's administration, our sources advise us that in fact
these three have been caught out on something for which there can be
no reconciliation.
As yet,
the media are largely unaware of the recent events involving these
three characters, namely a plot to assassinate President Bush and
Vice-President Cheney as well as Speaker of the House, J Dennis
Hastert and Senate President Pro Tempore, Ted Stevens. In the event
that these four individuals were to be killed, the next in line to the
US Presidency would be none other than the Secretary of State,
currently Colin Powell.
Should
these resignations take place, as we expect, in the coming days,
the pre-emptive publication of this story will serve to illustrate
that our sources have provided us with sound information, not only of
the impending departures but also the reason for them.

"As
promised, I have posted a video for your enjoyment.
The
roughly 9 minute segment features Jim
Marrs, Mike Berger of the St Louis 9-11 Visibility Project, and
me, Simon Aronowitz, Editor and webmaster of this website.
More
clips will be coming, but I've decided that I can't be entirely
generous and altruistic about allowing people to see all the video I
have to offer.
I'd give
it away if I could, but bandwidth costs money, and I'm hoping to be
able to devote more time to video production, perhaps even drawing me
away from my regular 9-5 pay-the-bills type work.
So I've
decided that I will gladly post lower quality clips for free access,
but there will be a wider range of videos, and at a higher quality,
available to subscribers. Yes, subscribers.
Well you
pay for satellite television and newspapers don't you? This site gets
a steady 400 hits a day. Surely there are some out there who are
getting something from this site. If they're not at the moment, many
of you will be able to when there is a wider range of material
available. And I promise you, it IS coming.
Feel
free to email me with your thoughts on this strategy. But I'd prefer
to hear from people who are in favour of this. I won't be charging
much for a subscription, it will be in the region of what Paul Joseph
Watson and Alex Jones are charging at PrisonPlanet.tv.
Not to
mention the fact that the trip to San Francisco cost a LOT of money,
and I was one of only three people there from the UK, including Nafeez
Mosaddeq Ahmed, and he was one of the speakers.
So to
you guys in the UK who are looking to encourage and support a new,
growing alternative medium, well here's your chance.

A
further note on filming in London
The
troubles I and my `camera crew' experienced whilst filming in London,
being detained by the police to explain what we were doing, needn't
have happened, according to the police.
Apparently,
if we just tell them in advance of filming who we are, what we're
filming and where we're going to be, then they won't bother us. I
thought this was supposed to be a free country, but how can we be free
if we have to account for out actions, in advance, to the police?
Weren't the Communists like that? How different is the UK from the old
USSR?"

"After a
long absence, it's definitely time that this website was updated.
Do I
have an excuse for having done nothing to it at all for more than two
months? Probably not, but I've been trying to get my life in order,
though some would argue it's still as dis-ordered as ever.
9/11
Conference in San Francisco
I
attended the 9/11
Inquiry (Phase 1) which was held in San Francisco on 26th -
28th March. I hadn't made mention of my intentions to go on this
website, because I wanted to ensure that I would get into the US. IP
logs for users accessing this website showed that it was being
scrutinised by elements of the US Government and others, so I figured
it wouldn't do to advertise the fact that I was going. I managed to
slip in under the radar, so to speak. The only trouble I had on the
way out at Heathrow was that the microphone for my digital camcorder
looked odd on the X-ray machine, so they wanted to go through my hand
luggage. Of course, the staff were very friendly about it.
Incidentally,
the quality of airline food seems to have slipped further. For those
without specific dietary requirements, the choice of meal was either
beef stew or `bangers and mash', served in the requisite TV-dinner
microwave plastic tub. I'm sure I remember a time when the food looked
like a miniature version of something you might have got in a
restaurant, complete with a proper plate and cutlery. Today we're not
even trusted with a metal fork, in case someone gets the wrong idea
about the pilot's aversion to someone waving cutlery at him.
There is
much to report from the conference in San Francisco, and yet in a way,
most of it is already out there. Some of you reading this website will
be aware of the material which was discussed at the event, even
without knowing who the speakers were.
Whilst
the official hearings for the 9/11
Commission were taking place on the US east coast, discussing the
issue of possible fore-knowledge of the 9/11 attacks, our own
Inquiry on the west coast was discussing evidence which exposed the
lie that is the continuing 9/11 cover-up and official story.
For me,
the conference was primarily a chance to network with others, to make
contacts and get to know some other people involved in what might be
called the `Underground Truth Movement', underground because there
doesn't seem to be much mainstream coverage that would even make us
look silly, never mind give us authority and credibility.
For
example, Ted Gunderson, the
former Senior Special Agent in Charge of the Los Angeles FBI Field
Office attended the event and I was able to spend some time talking to
him. Ted was one of the many individuals who have been trying to
present information to the public about 9/11 and other nefarious
activities, but have been ignored by the big media organisations.
Ellen
Mariani and her lawyer, Phil Berg, also made highly respectable
and moving arguments for a full investigation into 9/11.
Others
who were present included
Daniel
Hopsicker, author of `Barry and the Boys' and `Welcome to
Terrorland: Mohammed Atta And The 9-11 Cover-Up In Florida'
Michael Ruppert
Kris Millegan,
editor of `Fleshing Out Skull And Bones' Webster
Tarpley, co-author of the Unauthorised
Biography of George HW Bush
Eric Hufschmid, author of
`Painful Questions' and producer of the video `Painful Deceptions'
Anthony Hilder
Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed,
author of `The
War on Freedom: How and Why America was Attacked' and `Behind The
War Ib Terror: Western Secret Strategy and the Struggle for Iraq'
Jim Marrs, author of `The War On
Freedom: The 9-11 Conspiracies', `Rule By Secrecy', `Alien Agenda',
and `Crossfire: The Plot That Killed Kennedy'
Ralph Schoenman and Mya Shone
There
were more people present, but I can't think of them for the moment. As
Bush recently said at one of his press conferences, when asked an
unscripted question, `maybe
something will pop into my head'.
I got a
lot of video footage from San Francisco and I'm trying to decide how
best to use it. I'll post some excerpts on the website, an if I
receive positive feedback from it I'll post some more clips. I have
footage of the majority of the people listed above. If you have a
particular preference, drop me an email.
Phase
II of the Inquiry happens at the end of May in Toronto.
Unfortunately my financial circumstances mean that I can't afford to
go. Not unless some kind and rich benefactor wants to help me out. If
you have a thousand bucks or so spare, and would like to throw it in
my direction, please use the `Support Us' link at the top of the page.
The
Beheading of Nick Berg
This
sickening episode has understandably been setting the news agenda for
the past week. The video clip can be found here.
Be warned that it is extremely graphic. More analysis of the Nick Berg
affair can be found at PrisonPlanet.tv.
Of
course, the news dominating the previous couple of week's headlines
was the torture photos purporting to show American and British troops
abusing and torturing Iraqi prisoners.
The
pressure in the UK on the the Daily Mirror, in the face of growing
accusations that the British photos were fakes, led Friday to the
resignation of the Mirror's editor, Piers Morgan. In the US, however,
it seems to be acknowledged that the `American' photos are genuine,
but the Pentagon is saddling up to pin the whole affair on the CIA.
Both
public news stories and other sources indicate that a show-trial is
being set up in Baghdad for the very public court-martial of Lindy
England and others. There would not be a media circus around the
proceedings unless the Pentagon was sure that it would not have egg on
its face as a result.
Film-making
Over the
last couple of weeks, I've been out and about with a camera-man and
sound man filming in London. We filmed the May Day rally, which was
really nothing more than a Communist Party Rally, including a
contingent from the Iranian Communist Party. Nice to know that the
reds are still up to their old tricks. We also went to see who was
around Grosvenor Square, outside the American Embassy. We weren't
filming there for long when we were stopped and questioned by three
armed police officers.
Last
Saturday we were stopped and searched in Parliament Square, outside
the Houses of Parliament. It seems that a 3-man film crew, who the
police agreed was doing nothing wrong, warranted invasive police
action, whereas 20 rollerbladers and skateboarders, causing an
obstruction and criminal damage, warranted no intervention whatsoever.
On this occasion, there were five members of the Metropolitan Police
present - three proper officers and two Police Community Support
Officers.
However,
on neither occasion could they provide any basis upon which I had to
provide them with my genuine details, and stated that they have the
authority to stop and question us under the Terrorism Act.
We also
discovered that whilst tourists can film with their own camcorders in
Trafalgar Square to their heart's content, a professional crew (or at
least one that looks professional with a full size broadcast quality
camera) must ask for permission from the Mayor's office because it has
now been designated a `Heritage Site'.
Some of the
footage from this activity will also be posted on this site in the
coming days. Expect some regular updates as I try to bring the site
back up to date. So much has happened over the last couple of months
whilst this site has been neglected." -

`Kelly
was Murdered' Says UK Intelligence Insider
|
|
by Simon
Aronowitz
Editor - ThoughtCrimeNews.com
Monday
23rd February 2004
|
|

Dr David
Kelly
Shocking
new details about the death of Dr David Kelly emerged today
exclusively on the Alex Jones radio
show. Michael Shrimpton, a UK national security lawyer who was a
guest on the show, revealed that sources within MI5 and MI6 are
`furious' that Kelly was murdered.
Shrimpton
spoke in depth about the details of Kelly's murder on 17th July 2003,
information which has been withheld by the British press.
With
apparent backing from the organisations whose members he claims to
speak for, Shrimpton presented their view that Dr Kelly had been
murdered by a team of assassins and the charade of an apparent suicide
was then played out to cover this up.
Speaking
with impeccable credentials, including contributions to the Journal
for International Security Affairs and having previously given a
closed-doors confidential briefing the US Senate Intelligence
Committee, Shrimpton exploded the much-reported myth that Dr Kelly had
taken his own life.
He spoke
of the probable method of Kelly's death, the group which most likely
carried out the assassination, who arranged it and finally where the
responsibility lies. Additionally, he explained the political context
and motive for Kelly's murder.
