Pakistan hotel bombing kills at least 60 by Mas roor Gilani

1 hour, 51 minutes ago

ISLAMABAD (AFP) - A suicide bomber detonated a truck packed with explosives at

the Marriott Hotel in Islamabad on Saturday, killing at least 60 people in a brazenattack in the heart of the Pakistan capital.

Around 200 people were wounded, some critically, and there were fears moredead would be found in the fiery wreckage of the hotel, a popular gathering placefor politicians, foreigners and the Pakistan elite.

Officials said they were worried the building, engulfed in flame after the blast

ruptured a gas pipeline, would collapse. A security official said many people leaptto their deaths from upper floors rather than be burnt alive.

The bombing came shortly after new President Asif Ali Zardari, who faces a

struggle to rein in Al-Qaeda and Taliban militants, delivered his inaugural address

to parliament only a few hundred metres away.

It was one of the deadliest attacks in an increasingly bloody campaign by

militants in Pakistan, a vital ally in the US-led "war on terror," and presented

Zardari with a major challenge just days after he took office.

"Terrorism is a cancer in Pakistan, we are determined, God willing, we will rid thecountry of this cancer," Zardari said in a televised address to the nation. "We will

not be deterred by these cowards," he said.

"Pakistanis are brave and fearless people. They are not afraid of death."

The attack appeared to be timed to cause the maximum number of casualties,

coming as the hotel was thronged with families holding their evening meal tobreak the daily Ramadan fast.

Eyewitness Mohammad Jamil said the truck exploded just outside the heavily-

secured hotel's gates. He said the force of the blast sent the truck flying into the

air, and knocked him over onto the street.

"For a few seconds I was in shock and did not know what had happened. Then Iremembered the deafening noise," Jalil said.

The blast, so powerful it was heard for miles, blew an enormous crater in the

ground and destroyed the outside wall of the compound. Buildings severalkilometres away had windows blown out from the impact.

Before officials pushed back the media over fears the devastated structure would

collapse, an AFP photographer saw mutilated bodies amid the carnage.

Another witness, Dirome Anthony, told the BBC that there was a moment of quiet

after the blast before debris started falling from the sky. He said a human handlanded near his car.

The government ordered in the army to try to clear away the debris. But seniorpolice officer Saqib Sultan said rescuers were unable to search for victims deepinside the building which was still burning early Sunday.

"The death toll is 60 and it may go up," said a senior security official who declinedto be named.

Hospital officials said a US national was among the dead. The security official saidwomen, children and an unknown number of foreigners had died.

The government had received word two days ago of a possible attack near the

parliamentary offices, interior ministry official Rehman Malik said.

IntelCenter, a US organisation that tracks militants, said an Al-Qaeda leader who

claimed responsibility for a previous bombing in Pakistan threatened new attacksin a video this month to mark the anniversary of September 11.

The Marriott was attacked previously in 2004 and 2007. But while nearly 1,300

people have been killed this year alone in a wave of militant violence acrossPakistan, attacks in Islamabad have been relatively rare.

But as Al-Qaeda and Taliban militants have tried to establish a safe-haven in thetribal areas, attacks have spread to the capital more often.

US President George W. Bush condemned the attack, which he said "is a reminder

of the ongoing threat faced by Pakistan, the United States, and all those whostand against violent extremism."

In Britain, Foreign Secretary David Miliband said the "disgraceful" bombing had

strengthened the resolve to fight militancy.

Although a close anti-terror US ally since 9/11, critics have repeatedly insistedthat elements of Pakistan's powerful intelligence service give clandestine backing

to Islamist militants.

Zardari will meet US President George W. Bush in the United States next week for

the first time since he took the oath of office on September 9.

The Bush administration has accused Taliban Islamic militants and Al-Qaedafollowers of using the unruly border areas as bases from which to direct a growing

deadly insurgency in neighbouring Afghanistan.

Meanwhile strains have emerged between Islamabad and Washington over

strikes by US forces on Pakistani tribal areas, carried out by US forces operatingin Afghanistan.

This is a Zionist attack, a false flag terrorist action, a signature instrument of warfare of theIsraelis.

Have a look at the crater; it is enormous: 40 meters deep.

Only a small nuke, one that is less than 1kton (a mininuke), even smaller perhaps, 0.1kton(a micronuke) could have done this.

Otherwise, they would have had to have found a pretty large truck, one that holds 100 tonsor more of explosives to have done this. Unlikely.

Those people in the picture are unaware they are walking unprotected in a radioactive zone.The radiation is not massive as this is a thermonuclear bomb, not a pure fission bomb, butthe effects will show up in time later with a mysterious epidemic of deaths.

Little do these people know that the Israelis have struck before in a similar fashion, mostnotably in Indonesia, in the Bali bombing (the first one; the second one was done to destroyevidence), and elsewhere eg. Lebanon. Joe Vialls has covered this topic well.

And of course, CIA military officers were the target. The Zionists are simply setting up theAmericans against the Pakistanis.

The Americans will be used l ike this, as false flag targets, until they are of no use to theZionists anymore.

This is how the Afghani Taliban were set up.

It looks like Pakistan is the new Afghanistan.

Look for more false flags with Pakistanis as patsies.

questionsby Sandy on 21.09.2008 [06:44 ]

Thi sstory does not yet make sense as reported.

If th etruck "exploded "(is the eye witness reliable who said "though the air" as that isimportant forensically) OUTSIDE the gates and somehow ignited a gas pipeline (how deep dothey run??) which from OUTSIDE the gate caused the burning of the Marriot.................

What pipeline? How deep? What kind of gas? How between the truck edetonation and thePipe allegedly? what was the surface of the ground immediately after the "Truck" detonation?Why the large crater when this is not ballisticially consistent with a truck bomb?

zap

The Marriott Hotelby qvh on 21.09.2008 [07:01 ]

caught fire from the intense heat given off by the fireball that is formed in a nuclearexplosion. The thermal energy is great enough to make distant objects catch fire. You willfind that among the wounded there will be many with flashburns, characteristic of nucleardetonations. Victims with inexpiicably severe flashburns were numerous in the Bali bombing.I would predict that there were also reports of people being vaporized; one second they werethere, the next minute they weren't, not that the mainstream media would report on thestrange aspects of this bombing.

And the size of the crater also points to some large-sized detonation. A truck carrying100-1000 tons of conventional explosives would have been noticed, and where would alQaeda get hold of this stuff?

Small bombings aren't good enough for the Zionists in their false flags. They have to makethe bombing spectacular enough causing as many deaths as possible to catch the attentionof the Americans and incite their rage and fear of the Pakistanis or whoever the Zionists wantblamed. Logistically this would be hard to accomplish with conventional explosives. Hencethere use of micro/mini-nukes.

Because they were blown up the same way, and by the same people, the Mossad.

rationalizations of the strategies employed in Iraq only focusing on the positives whiledissmissing the negatives.

Czech envoy killed in I slamabad hotel blastby Zoraida on 21.09.2008 [09:52 ]

Pakistani PM: Czech envoy killed in Islamabad hotel blast

ISLAMABAD, Sept. 21 (Xinhua) Pakistani Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani Sundayconfirmed that the ambassador of the Czech Republic to Pakistan has been killed inSaturday's suicide bomb attack at a five-star hotel in Islamabad.

"The ambassador has been confirmed dead in the attack," Gilani told reporters after visitingthe injured at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences Islamabad.

Czech ambassador Ivo Zdarek was missing since the attack.

Zdarek, 47, who used to serve in Vietnam, was appointed ambassador to Pakistan last monthand has been staying at the hotel, the embassy sources said.

Earlier, doctors at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences Islamabad said that bodies of aCzech national and a foreigner lady were brought to the hospital Sunday.

He was married with two sons, according to the website of the Czech embassy in Hanoi,

where he was most recently posted.

Gilani said that 53 people had been confirmed dead in the deadly truck bomb attack.

well picked Capby Sandy on 21.09.2008 [13:19 ]

Gee , someone was lucky with that photo!

The poor people inside.

Cap, you sure have pointed out an interesting 1234!!!"..Earlier, a U.S. State Department official led three colleagues through the rubble from thecharred building, one of them bleeding heavily from a wound on the side of his head. One ofthe four, who identified himself only as Tony, said they had been moving toward the rear of a

Chinese restaurant inside the hotel after a first, small blast when a second explosion hurledthem against the back wall.

"Then we saw a big truck coming to the gates," he said. "After that, it was just smoke anddarkness."..."

Got that? THEN WE SAW A BIG TRUCK COMING TO TH EGATES..."After the exp;losion hadhurled them against the wall. hmmmm

Di dthey make a mistake? Wonder if these were the "cia targets" (yeah sure), and would bevaluable to know the orietnation of the chinese restaurant adn hence the blast vector.

But if it IS a correct quote, how could they see the Truck coming AFTER the hue blast?Weird. Truck a fufry then? IF that is a true order of events.

Wonder if it was a gas line and if it was, where was it, how deep and how on earht could asmall explosion penetrate deeply enough through ground from a surface vector ppint toresuolt in deep earht penetration???

Just like Bali and Jakarta,, it doesnt yet make sense.

It makes senseby qvh on 21.09.2008 [13:39 ]

when you realize it was a micro/mininuke detonated at the same time that a truck is drivingto the hotel as a decoy. The truck would not have had enough explosives to cause that kindof explosion and crater. The gas pipeline is just an excuse because they know people would

start to question the intensity of the explosion.

I don't think there's any mystery about this at all like there is no mystery about the 9/11attack on the WTC or about the Bali bombing.

Timing, and other thoughtsby Richard on 21.09.2008 [16:20 ]

This bombing occurs just days prior to Zardari's attending the 63rd UN General Assemblysession. Ahmadinejad will deliver a speech, as well. Zardari has already started the "we willfight the terrorists' craptalk. Good boy, now sit.

It seems there is a "radical Islamists kill CIA agents" spin being spun. Also, as others havepointed out, witnesses detail TWO explosions happening, like Oklahoma City in 95.

The US is in effect punishing the people of Pakistan for having the audacity to be enraged atthe US for killing it's citizens. In other words, the US is saying to Pakistan with this attack"you see, you won't let us kill the bad guys and look what happens, we told you so." It wil lnot work, of course.

The timing is just right, as a huge "terrorist attack" sets the tone for the new government, inrespect to it's attitude toward "militants". And as I said before, it occurs just prior to the63rd UN G. A. session.

But all of this only reveals how detached the West is from reality. The Pakistani people won'tbuy any of it. It will only cause the US to be more hated and distrusted.

The coming days will reveal more to us...

A truck carrying 100-1000 tons of conventional explosives would have been

noticed

What Was Mysterious Activity Going on in the Marriott Hotel Islamabad by

United States Marinesby Zoraida on 21.09.2008 [21:23 ]

What Was Mysterious Activity Going on in the Marriott Hotel Islamabad by United StatesMarinesSunday, 21 September 2008 12:18 www.daily.pkMarriott Hotel has now become a ghost house which was yesterday the most beautiful andprestigious hotels in the Islamabad. While the condemnation of the blasts and the deathsand the loss of property is going on from all the quarters, some intriguing news is alsopouring in.

After the blast, mysteriously fire was started at the fourth and fifth floors. It was said thatthis fire was the result of gas pipeline burst running through the hotel. The million dollarquestion is that was the gas pipeline not running through the other floors? Why the firebroke out from the fourth and fifth flours? That is the question which perhaps holds the keyto the mystery as why the hotel was targeted yesterday, in which more than 60 people diedincluding many foreigners.

Though it would never get confirmed but the fire on the fifth and fourth floor of the hotelbroke out because those flours were housing the mysterious steel boxes under the heavyguard of United States marines and no one including the Pakistani security forces and thesecurity men of the hotel were allowed to go near with the them. These boxes were shiftedinside the hotel when the Admiral Mike Mullen met Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani andothers in Islamabad.

It is said that one member of parliament Mumtaz Alam who belongs to the PPP, the rulingparty was there eye witnessed the whole scene when the white truck of US embassy came tothe gate of Marriot Hotel and US marines themselves unloaded the steel boxes from thetrucks and shifted them to the fourth and fifth floors without passing through them thescanners at the entrance of the hotels. When the truck was there, all the entrance and theexit passage way to the hotels were closed.

And now this blast has occurred at the Marriott, while that mysterious activity was going on.

Not a suicide bomber...

by Kamau_Ajamu on 21.09.2008 [21:33 ]

...I was watching what they said was the Pakistan Marriott Hotel truck bomb video on thenews. They probably, once again, screwed up and put the RIGHT video on TV.

The news showed a truck burning for a couple of minutes with people mill ing around andsome even bringing fire extinguishers BEFORE the bomb blew up in front of the hotel.

Please tell me. What 'suicide bomber' in their right mind (no pun intended) is going to sit ina truck for a couple of minutes while the cabin area goes up in flames in front of by-standers,waiting for the cabin to be completely engulfed and not get out BEFORE a bomb goes off! Itwasn't a suicide bomber. It was a bomb plain and simple! These neocons don't think throughtheir operations anymore neither do they expect REAL people to decipher their idiotic plans!

Something is odd w ith this detonationby LittleHelper on 21.09.2008 [22:06 ]

Did you ever witness a detonation of alarge amount of explosives ?Such an explosion usually levels every-thing within a certain distance whichdepends on the amount of explosivesused.But such an explosion does NOTt setfire on the surrounding buildings !Quite to the contrary, it immediately

blows out every blaze in its reach.This is why explosives are often usedto blow out burning oil wells.

In my eyes, there is something falsewith this incident.In my eyes, the Marriot Hotel wasdeliberately set on fire, AFTER thedetonation. The detonation was NOTthe cause of this fire.

qvh is right.by Nopes on 21.09.2008 [23:32 ]

No conventional explosives can do this kind of damage. Crater so deep, distant objects catchfire, cars almost melted.It could be one of those pure fusion bombs.

What's important, they didn't show the explosion. NBC News confirmed that they did notrelease video of the big (second) explosion.That's a cover up. They could have used some old video of a previous incident to cover upthe fact that the "terrorists" got out of the car and warned people that they have 3 minutesto save their lives.It could be a false flag terrorist attack or simply a mistake of some CIA agents carryingbombs for such attacks (hence the warning to bystanders).In that hotel CIA had a meeting.

geo.tv/9-20-2008/25303.htm" ISLAMABAD: The bombers issued warning before the explosives laden car was rammed intothe five star hotel here on Saturday, witnesses said.

Witnesses said before the suicide blast, a small vehicle hit the security barrier outside thehotel, a man emerged from it and warned the people present there that they had only threeminutes time to run away and save their lives."

www.thaindian.com/newsportal/india-news/senior-cia-officers-were-target-of-islamabad-blast_10097943.html

Islamabad , Sept 20 (ANI): Several senior officers of Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) whoare reported to be currently visiting Islamabad were the target of the blast at the MarriottHotel which took place here tonight.

Well placed sources said that Marriott Hotel is usual hotel choice of the US officials and itseems that militants tipped off that certain high level US intelligence officers were currentlystaying at the hotel.

While no confirmation was available but Pakistan sources said it was clear that the explosion

was aimed at specific targets based on a tip off.

At least twenty people were killed, and scores others seriously injured, when an explosivesladen truck rammed into Marriott Hotel here today.

Over 50 people have been admitted in the local hospitals.

The powerful explosion caused fire in many parts of the hotel besides damaging the buildingsaround the hotel. (ANI)

Except nukesby qvh on 22.09.2008 [00:23 ]

"But such an explosion does NOTt setfire on the surrounding buildings !"

Nukes do. The fireball created is millions of degrees and so it causes distant objects to set onfire.

It was the Mossad, and the bomb was made in Dimona.

But it's not, and even withinthe ziocontrol, there are rivalries, one-up-manship- for lack of better explanation.If you are making a valid point, they can ignor you and not print, (I remember having thatproblem also, back when Afghanistan was first invaded. Even social commentary, on eventstaking place within my own community, (two local dalies, and a weekly publication)).Then I hit on something, and since then I've been published dozens of time, locally,nationaly and internationaly.

If you have issue w ith an editor, or their comment, please do take the time torespond, but remember to send a copy of your response to other editors o f the localnewspapers (rival) and other media out lets. If your letting the editor know they arean asshole, they'll be plesed you shared your views w ith their counterparts acrosstow n. Believe me, it works. I've had letters addressed to one editor, published inrival papers, especially if you have a valid po int, all our poin ts are vaild, right? Ifyou have issue with a reporter or their specific slant, please do respond, butremember to send their editor a copy (if nothing else, it'll give two assholessomething to talk about), check papers masthead, send copies to senior staff if theiremails are published, and always, alw ays, always, send copies to editors of all therival media out lets.

@pilot-x, and don't forget the 'spellcheck' which I don't have for posting here, well i mighthave, just too damn lazy to look for it, and since it's spanglish anyways, who really cares?

Why does it have to be a missile?by qvh on 22.09.2008 [01:23 ]

The Mossad don't need to fire a missile at the target. This is complicated and requires alauncher or a plane. The Mossad can get access to the spot. It's easier to position a bombwhere they want it exactly and detonate it from afar electronically. The bomb was astationary one. Then get a patsy, one who thinks he's on a suicide mission or someone justinnocent of what's going on and told to drive a truck to a certain point, or they get a deadperson in the driver's seat and drive the truck by remote control etc. and you have a 'truckbomb' driven by a suicide bomber.

But no truck bomb can cause this deep and wide crater.

h ttp://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=I1KYKslZY8s

According to the video, the truck was a six-wheeler - LOL. Carrying "high-quality explosives".

They were high-quality all right.

But of course, most of the population will just believe the media and think it was an al Qaedabomb, and the others, a suspicious minority, will think it was the CIA, or Bush or whateverwith a few variations on the theme, some convoluted plot by the new president of Pakistan orhis opponents. Alex Jones is already on the job even as we speak.

And nobody will guess the truth, and the Israelis will triumph over the goyim once again,and continue to fool them. Eventually there will be another war and things will go around incircles with the Israelis never discovered.

Well, if they can succeed, mostly due to the stupidity of the goyim, then I say more power tothe Israelis. The great majority of people stil have not woken up to the last great trick playedon them which was the Holocaust, and that was more than sixty years ago, nor to the truthabout the JFK assassination.

This is what I predict knowing the relative intelligence levels of the goyim and the Zionists.

Even if you spell it out for the goyim they won't believe you. It's not worth trying to wake upthe goyim. You'll only get abused by them and become a target of the Zionists. This is what Iam coming to realize more and more.

@Kamauby verve on 22.09.2008 [01:30 ]

agreed on the missile. BLU type, or Russian/Chinese equivilant. There should be lots of picsof what missile crators look like and what ordinance was used to cause such holes. Compare

hole sizes and that'll give idea of what size missile it was. Seems to have missed its targetthough, my guess, the hotel. The secondary gas pipe explosions that set the hotel on fire(that's the ghist of what I've read so far) are plausable.

If there was a heavy US/CIA presence there?????? looks like ISI sent a strong message.Otherwise, maybe it was a false flag and the (insert name of favorite villan here) really diddo it!

Could this bomb have been PRE-PLACED?by pilot-x on 22.09.2008 [01:34 ]

Maybe via a tunnel?One might think they would have tunnelled right underneath the hotel...

Alex Jones w ill set up a strawmanby qvh on 22.09.2008 [01:46 ]

not just about the Marriott Hotel bombing but about all the other suspicious events. Heserves a useful function for the Zionists and he does his work well. That's why they leave himalone and he gets rich with lots of money from advertising and other business activities.

So he sets up a strawman. And doing this helps the Zionists because they can shoot it downeasily. Eg. Bush was behind 9/11. Or the CIA was behind 9/11. But many people know Bushis not mentally capable of setting up and doing 9/11 so they dismiss Alex Jones. TheZionists, those on Free Republic etc, make fun of Jones and call him crazy.

Clinton accuses him of being a traitor for accusing patriotic Americans like the firefighters orthe police officers or the CIA officers of being complicit in the conspiracy etc.

So Alex Jones sets himself and the whole 'conspiracy movement' by extension for attack andridicule, as Alex Jones somehow has become the PREMIER figure of the movement.

He introduces some truths in his reports and analyses to hook the suspicious in but he hidesthem from the whole truth.

So he is one of the most effective gatekeepers for the Zionists. The Zionists have theChristian Zionist pastors and religious right people doing the gatekeeping on theconservative side, and basically keeping the people who would never think in conspiracyterms under control; and on the other side, they have the conspiracy theorists under controlthanks to Alex Jones and others of his ilk.

Now anyone who is a conspiracy theorist is labeled a nut, or a traitor etc, or an extremeliberal; one is automatically thought of in this way by the other side, even if one does notblame the CIA or Bush as being the masterminds.

Only a very few people tell the truth about the perps; people like DBS; and guess what, hecan't get funding or advertising like Jones so his audience is much smaller.

And the Zionists will keep piling up their successes.

why a missile?by verve on 22.09.2008 [01:46 ]

simple, clean, effective. requires little human input (other than planted media stories), lesschance of screw-up. To blow a hole that 'deep' one needs to plant the explosives deeplyunderground, and force the earth up and out. Most 'planted' expolsives are close to surface,or down manholes, or sewer lines, not 30+ feet undergroud.On the other hand, BLUs and their bunkerbusting counterparts are designed to go 30-40 feetunderground before detonation, for a better example, look at pics of the hole that was dug inthe N. Korean railyard mere hours after Dear Leader passed through it.

One might think they would have tunnelled righ t underneath the hotel..by qvh on 22.09.2008 [01:56 ]

No, they had to do it where the truck stopped. That would be at the checkpoint. So this wasa little distance from the hotel, not immediately under it. And to tunnel that far right underthe hotel would have taken a long time and they might have been caught.

They probably placed it in a sewer or concealed it in some receptacle nearby. The bomb'ssize would not have been very big. They might have placed it in the truck itself.

@verveby qvh on 22.09.2008 [02:03 ]

Have you seen a chart of crater sizes of nukes buried in the ground at varying depths anddetonated? If you have, you can see you do not need to bury a nuke deep at all, a surfacenuke can cause a very deep crater. The size of the crater is more a function of the nuke'sdetonating power rather than how deep it's buried. Even a nuke that's detonated above-surface can create a crater.

That's why you see craters pitting the ground all over Nevada in nuke bomb-testing sites.

There are a few sites on the net that show how big the craters are with varying depths ofdetonation . It would be very unusual for a nuke bomb to be detonated (at any depth) andnot form a crater unless it was a deeply buried nuke as this is less likely to form a crater as itmakes a hole and the soil on top collapses inwards and you get a subsidence effect.

In the Bali bombing there was a similar crater.

"Why does it have to be a missile? The Mossad don't need to fire a missile at the target"

And why does it always have to be MoSSad?Jews are not superheroes. They can't mess with Pentagon to this extent.

re: Alex Jones and FBI "snitch-jacketing"by Richard on 22.09.2008 [02:10 ]

"Snitch-jacketing" is an old FBI tactic that attempts to discredit honest people, by startingrumors that those honest people are actually paid agents of some kind.

The FBI used this tactic quite effectively against Huey Newton and the Black Panthers.

Here is a link to the prisonplanet archive where Zionists are the topic of discussion:

h ttp://prisonplanet.com/search-result.html?cx=007184093999670235891%3A0_8izx-_bou&cof=FORID%3A9&ie=UTF-8&q=Zionists

The fact that people who are "conspiracy theorists" are labeled as crazy is certainly not theresult of anything Alex Jones has done.

Inciting the "it's the Jews" talkby Richard on 22.09.2008 [02:18 ]

Remember that a major component of the 9/11 propaganda involves the deliberateincitement of anti-Jewish pronouncements, the better to discredit people as "anti-Semetic"

in a guilt-by-association kind of way.

The people of whom we should be wary are not people l ike Alex Jones, but rather people whoattempt to discredit those of us who do not scream "it's the Jews" at the top of our lungs.

It is absurd..by Richard on 22.09.2008 [02:24 ]

to claim that 9/11 is explicitly a Mossad operation. Absolutely absurd.

Mossad does not control NORAD or the FAA. Mossad does not have the capacity to organizefifteen or so different wargames on 9/11.

There are a number of guilty parties.

The Jews OWN the Pentagon.by qvh on 22.09.2008 [03:16 ]

They OWN the White House. They OWN the CIA. They OWN the Congress. They OWN thejudicial system in the US. They OWN the federal reserve. They OWN the future president.They OWN America. I'm including the crypto-jews and the dual citizens of Israel likeRumsfeld, Cheney, Krongard, Mueller, Zakheim etc etc. too numerous to list here. All thepeople in the top positions of government: the CIA, the Pentagon, the FBI etc, are Jews(isn't that funny?).That's how they could organize NORAD exercises and order a stand-down etc (Rumsfeldordered that, very simple, as he was the Defense Secretary at that time).

When I say MOSSAD, I mean the normal Israeli Mossad as well as the sayanim, Jewish spiesor Zionist spies within America. I do not regard them as Americans, I regard them as part of

the Zionist/Jewish nation with their loyalty to the Jewish nation above all. America comes adistant second if not last. America is just a tool for them to achieve Zionist ends.

The Israelis/Jews/Zionists OWN America. And many of the western nations/OECD nationsaround the world.

Oh, I forgot they OWN the media.

How can they cover up the USS Liberty, the JFK assassination, the King David Hotelbombing, the Lavon Affair etc etc.? Because they OWN the USA AND the American people areSTUPID. The rest of the world isn't much better actually, just the American people seemmore easily brainwashed than most.

It seems like the Jews ARE "supermen" as you put it.

The Gentile CIA, not the leadership, as well as the Gentile part of the Bush administrationincluding Bush, are too stupid to plan a false flag. And that's a fact.

The Jews control the USA and they did 9/11 using the Mossad as the men on the ground toexecute the mission. The headquarters of the Jews is Israel. America is just a colony.

If Alex Jones started telling the truth and blamed everything on the Zionists/Jews/Israelis/Mossad, he would suddenly have advertisers drop their contracts on his radio show, hewould be persona non grata all of a sudden, and he might even be the target of anassassination attempt. The fact that Jones is flourishing and the Zionists leave him alonetells you all you need to know what Jones is about: a Gatekeeper to keep the AmericanGoyim under control.

And if you don't think the Jews ow n Americaby qvh on 22.09.2008 [03:30 ]

Just go around and tell everyone at work, in your school etc, that Jews own the USA. You willsoon find that the word will get to the Jews, and you will find yourself out of a job, or begiven the cold shoulder by professors, ostracism and you might even become a victim ofsabotage, a physical attack or verbal abuse. You might even be charged with a hate crime.Do this as an experiment even if you do not believe it. Heck just do it on a mainstreammessageboard, you will be banned before long.

Then go around at a different place and say the same things, but just talk about the Naziwhites, or the evil Bush family, and say they run the place, they run everything, and they'reevil and so on. I promise you you might get a few weird looks and some cold-shouldering bysome crypto-White Nationalists or conservatives who voted for Bush, but you won't lose your

job etc etc.

Bush is a retard, and the people of Gentile America are either moronic Zionist Christians orcrazy liberals. None of them have the capacity to plan a 9/11, a Marriott Hotel attack and soon. Lenin once was asked why his admin was filled with Jews. Lenin, a Jew but not a

practising one, said that's because all the smart people in the SU were Jews; he couldn't findintelligent Gentiles (except a few such as Stalin). Well, if he was in the US, I think he wouldhave said the same thing. It appears the only clued-in people in America ARE the Jews. Thegoyim are idiots, and that's why the Zionists have conquered the Americans, a people muchmore numerous than the Jews.

Cui Bono?by qvh on 22.09.2008 [03:33 ]

Israel benefits from the Marriott Hotel bombing. America has money troubles and can't affordto get involved in another conflict, let alone pay for the ones they're in now.

Israel benefits from this false flag, just as they benefited from the 9/11 false flag, the USSLiberty false flag, the Lavon Affair, the Belle Disco false flag, the Pan Am Lockerbie false flagetc etc etc ad nauseum.

@qvh - the burnt carsby TerraHertz on 22.09.2008 [07:41 ]

While I agree the bomb is very likeley to have been a micronuke, and the 'burning truck' adiversion, I think comparing the 'burnt cars' from WTC www.drjudywood.com/articles

/DEW/dewpics/Image8.jpg vs the marriot cars -better pic here: www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2008/09/20/world/20080920-ISLAMABAD_4.htmlis ridiculous. The WTC cars you linked were just burned in situ, with no visibleimpact/explosion damage. probably just caught fire from burning papers, etc, and and thefire spread among the closely parked vehicles. Other 'WTC burnt cars' pics on the net arevery misleading - rows of cars that have obviously been carted away from the scene anddumped in rows near a bridge for instance, that are claimed to be evidence of 'SF weapons' -rubbish.But the Marriot cars are interesting. Observe door panel pushed in against internal frame.Obvious air overpressure damage. An explosives analyst could probably estimate the powerof the pressure spike from that. But note the cars are not burnt at all! Tyres undamaged,interior upholstery intact. Rear view mirror shroud (typically plastic) is undamaged.

Now, in the NYT car pic, the explosion must have been from behind the cameraman, toexplain the pressed-in door. Buth the cars are unburnt, while the entire upper floor of thehotel, much further from the blast, is well alight. This is odd. I don't believe the entire floorcaught fire from radiant heat even from a micronuke.Looks like something else set fire to the hotel. How about those boxes the marines broughtin?

If it's true there were many high level CIA officials dining in the hotel when the blast wentoff, I wonder if this is some kind of faction war among US groups? Anti-Bush Military vs thepro-Bush CIA?

In any case, I hope the Pakistan authorities know how to check for alpha radiation. Anordinary geiger counter cannot detect Alpha. Needs a scintil lation counter with very thin foilwalls, that Helium nuclei (Alpha) can penetrate.

I wonder if this was another micro-nuke placed in a drain, like Bali?

Come to think of it...by TerraHertz on 22.09.2008 [07:51 ]

Setting a truck on fire would make a very good terminal guidance infra-red target for a heatseeking missile, with a small nuclear warhead. This way you don't need to carry a micro-nukeinto the country, with all the risk of stuff-ups that entails.

If it's not a nuke, then...by Paperinoisback on 22.09.2008 [11:57 ]

Boxes at top floors (main explosion), truck at the gates (set-up explosion), big bomb in thesewers (to get the crater, also PR stuff).
