De
Saoedisch journalist Khashoggi, die naar grote waarschijnlijkheid is
vermoord in het Saoedische consulaat in Istanbul, zou op de
hoogte kunnen zijn geweest van de aanslagen tegen o.a. het WTC op 11 september 2001.
Daar
Khashoggi in ongenade was gevallen bij de reli-fascistische
dictatuur van Saoedi-Arabië, was hij het land ontvlucht en werkte hij
voor de Washington Post. In zijn artikelen deed Khashoggi een boek
open o.a. over kroonprins bin Salman (MBS)
Finian
Cunningham schreef een artikel op Information Clearing House, waarin
hij openbaart dat figuren uit de geheime diensten van de VS op de hoogte waren van de Saoedische plannen Khashoggi
te ontvoeren en deze hebben verzuimd hem te waarschuwen…… Hieruit zou je
inderdaad kunnen afleiden dat de VS zelf al niet blij was met
Khashoggi, het waarom zou kunnen duiden op kennis bij Khashoggi van de 9/11 aanslagen in 2001.
De daders van die aanslagen, aangestuurd door de geheime diensten van de VS, kwamen voor het grootste deel uit Saoedi-Arabië. Het is intussen wel zeker dat 9/11 een false flag operatie
was, waarvan vooral de VS heeft geprofiteerd en waarmee men de weg
vrij maakte voor nog meer illegale oorlogen tegen landen die de VS
niet gehoorzaam genoeg vindt…… VS terreur waarmee sinds 2001 meer dan 2 miljoen mensen werden vermoord…..

Did
Saudis, CIA Fear Khashoggi 9/11 Bombshell?
By
Finian Cunningham
October
14, 2018 “Information
Clearing House” – The
macabre case of missing journalist Jamal Khashoggi raises the
question: did Saudi rulers fear him revealing highly damaging
information on their secret dealings? In particular, possible
involvement in the 9/11 terror attacks on New York in 2001.
Even
more intriguing are US media reports now
emerging that American intelligence had snooped on and were aware of
Saudi officials making plans to capture Khashoggi prior to his
apparent disappearance at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul last week.
If the Americans knew the journalist’s life was in danger, why
didn’t they tip him off to avoid his doom?
Jamal
Khashoggi (59) had gone rogue, from the Saudi elite’s point of
view. Formerly a senior editor in Saudi state media and an advisor to
the royal court, he was imminently connected and versed in House of
Saud affairs. As one commentator cryptically put it: “He knew where
all the bodies were buried.”
For
the past year, Khashoggi went into self-imposed exile, taking up
residence in the US, where he began writing opinion columns for the
Washington Post.
Khashoggi’s
articles appeared
to be taking on increasingly critical tone against the heir to the
Saudi throne, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. The 33-year-old Crown
Prince, or MbS as he’s known, is de facto ruler of the oil-rich
kingdom, in place of his aging father, King Salman.
While
Western media and several leaders, such as Presidents Trump and
Macron, have been indulging MbS as “a reformer”, Khashoggi was
spoiling this Saudi public relations effort by criticizing the war in
Yemen, the blockade on Qatar and the crackdown on Saudi critics back
home.
However,
what may have caused the Saudi royals more concern was what Khashoggi
knew about darker, dirtier matters. And not just the Saudis, but
American deep state actors as well.
He
was formerly a media
aide to
Prince Turki al Faisal*, who is an eminence gris figure in Saudi
intelligence, with its systematic relations to American and British
counterparts. Prince Turki’s father, Faisal, was formerly the king
of Saudi Arabia until his assassination in 1975 by a family rival.
Faisal was a half-brother of the present king, Salman, and therefore
Prince Turki is a cousin of the Crown Prince – albeit at 73 more
than twice his age.
For
nearly 23 years, from 1977 to 2001, Prince Turki was the director of
the Mukhabarat, the Saudi state intelligence apparatus. He was
instrumental in Saudi, American and British organization of the
mujahideen fighters in Afghanistan to combat Soviet forces. Those
militants in Afghanistan later evolved into the al Qaeda terror
network, which has served as a cat’s paw in various US proxy wars
across the Middle East, North Africa and Central Asia, including
Russia’s backyard in the Caucasus.
Ten
days before the 9/11 terror attacks on New York City, in which some
3,000 Americans died, Prince Turki retired from
his post as head of Saudi intelligence. It was an abrupt departure,
well before his tenure was due to expire.
There
has previously been speculation in
US media that this senior Saudi figure knew in advance that something
major was going down on 9/11. At least 15 of the 19 Arabs who
allegedly hijacked three commercial airplanes that day were Saudi
nationals.
Prince
Turki has subsequently been named in a 2002 lawsuit mounted by
families of 9/11 victims. There is little suggestion he was wittingly
involved in organizing the terror plot. Later public comments
indicated that Prince Turki was horrified by the atrocity. But the
question is: did he know of the impending incident, and did he alert
US intelligence, which then did not take appropriate action to
prevent it?
Jamal
Khashoggi had long served as a trusted media advisor to Prince Turki,
before the latter resigned from public office in 2007. Following
9/11, Turki was the Saudi ambassador to both the US and Britain.
A
tentative idea here is that Khashoggi, in his close dealings with
Prince Turki over the years, may have gleaned highly sensitive inside
information on what actually happened on 9/11. Were the Arab
hijackers mere patsies used by the American CIA to facilitate an
event which has since been used by American military planners to
launch a global “war on terror” as a cover for illegal wars
overseas? There is a huge body of evidence that the 9/11 attacks were
indeed a “false flag” event orchestrated by the US deep state as
a pretext for its imperialist rampages.
The
apparent abduction and murder last week of Jamal Khashoggi seems such
an astoundingly desperate move by the Saudi rulers. More evidence is
emerging from Turkish sources that
the journalist was indeed lured to the consulate in Istanbul where he
was killed by a 15-member hit squad. Reports are saying that the
alleged assassination was ordered at the highest level of the Saudi
royal court, which implicates Crown Prince MbS.
Why
would the Saudi rulers order such a heinous act, which would
inevitably lead to acute political problems, as we are seeing in the
fallout from governments and media coverage around the world?
Over
the past year, the House of Saud had been appealing to Khashoggi to
return to Riyadh and resume his services as a media advisor to the
royal court. He declined, fearing that something more sinister was
afoot. When Khashoggi turned up in Istanbul to collect a divorce
document from the Saudi consulate on September 28, it appears that
the House of Saud decided to nab him. He was told to return to the
consulate on October 2. On that same day, the 15-member group arrived
from Riyadh on two private Gulfstream jets for the mission to kill
him.
Official
Saudi claims stretch credulity. They say Khashoggi left the consulate
building unharmed by a backdoor, although they won’t provide CCTV
images to prove that. The Turks say their own CCTV facilities
monitoring the front and back of the Saudi consulate show that
Khashoggi did not leave the premises. The Turks seem confident of
their claim he was murdered inside the building, his remains
dismembered and removed in diplomatic vehicles. The two private jets
left the same day from Istanbul with the 15 Saudis onboard to return
to Riyadh, via Cairo and Dubai.
To
carry out such a reckless act, the Saudis must have been alarmed by
Khashoggi’s critical commentaries appearing in the Washington Post.
The columns appeared to be delivering more and more damaging insights
into the regime under Crown Prince MbS.
The
Washington Post this week is reporting that
US intelligence sources knew from telecom intercepts that the Saudis
were planning to abduct Khashoggi. That implicates the House of Saud
in a dastardly premeditated act of murder.
But
furthermore this same disclosure could also, unwittingly, implicate
US intelligence. If the latter knew of a malicious intent towards
Khashoggi, why didn’t US agents warn him about going to the Saudi
consulate in Istanbul? Surely, he could have obtained the same
personal documents from the Saudi embassy in Washington DC, a country
where he was residing and would have been safer.
Jamal
Khashoggi may have known too many dark secrets about US and Saudi
intel collusion, primarily related to the 9/11 terror incidents. And
with his increasing volubility as a critical journalist in a
prominent American news outlet, it may have been time to silence him.
The Saudis as hitmen, the American CIA as facilitators.
