Silverstein laughs all the way to the bank

Larry Silverstein, a reputed illicit-sex-industry mobster, purchased the World Trade Center in 2001, shortly after the New York Port Authority lost an asbestos lawsuit and was ordered to remove all asbestos from the Twin Towers.  Cost estimates for that asbestos removal ranged from the low billions to the tens of billions – far more than the outdated, half-empty buildings were worth. (The City of New York had been desperately seeking a way to demolish the Towers since around 1990, but was prevented from doing so by asbestos issues.)

Activist Post reported on Sunday, April 8, in an article written by Tony Cartalucci, that the Iranian opposition group, Mujahideen-e-khalq, have been trained, armed, financed, harbored, and directed by both the US and Mossad since as early as 2005, when they were brought to the Nevada desert to train.  What is most important to note here is that this particular group is on the US State Department list of foreign terrorist organizations.  And what is important to ask here is why is the US government, in conjunction with Israel and the Mossad, training terrorist organizations in the Nevada desert?  And as if training this terrorist organization alone were not madness enough, the Brookings Institution asserted in its “Path to Persia” that the MEK were considered to be undemocratic, unpopular, and certainly anti-American. To further complicate the matter, a powerful and vocal lobby has emerged in Washington spear headed by the utterly repugnant and disingenuous Rudi Giuliani, and their goal is to have this particular group removed from the US State Department list of foreign terrorist organizations based solely on the grounds that they (lobby members) contend that the MEK has “renounced terrorism,” which would ultimately leave them (the MEK) free to carry out a much wider campaign of terrorism “against the Iranian people with even greater US support,” whereas of right now they are only suspected of having carried out a recent rash of assassinations targeting Iranian scientists.  US support alone here raises questions that are enormous in their implications. It is nonetheless the sort of behavior truthers have come to expect of their government.  But it is the participation of Israel and the Mossad that is the most troubling.

The US government shut down a series of court cases arising from a multimillion pound business dispute in order to conceal evidence of a damning intelligence failure shortly before the 9/11 attacks, MPs were told.

Moreover, the UK government is now seeking similar powers that could be used to prevent evidence of illegal acts and embarrassing failures from emerging in court, David Davis, the former shadow home secretary, told the Commons.

If you thought the criteria for suspicious activity in terms of potential terrorism couldn’t get any more broad and ludicrous, prepare to be taken aback.

According to a document entitled “Terrorism Awareness and Prevention: Participant Guide” distributed by the New Jersey Office of Homeland Security & Preparedness (which you can see embedded below), almost every single action should be treated as suspicious.

These include glances, wide open eyes, cold penetrating stares, trance-like gazes, exaggerated yawning when engaged in conversation, protruding or beating neck arteries, repetitive touching of face, tugging on or covering ears, increased breathing rate, panting, excessive fidgeting, clock watching, head turning, pacing or jumpiness, trembling, unusual perspiration, goose bumps, and/or rigid posture with minimal body movements and arms close to sides.
