Former UN Weapons Inspector: Don’t Rule Out Staged Government Terror

Edito Wars and conflicts International Governments USA
Former United Nations weapons inspector and Marine
Scott Ritter appeared on The Alex Jones Show and stated that he wouldn’t
rule out the possibility of the Bush administration staging a terror attack
in order to jolt a wavering foreign policy agenda back on track.
Ritter compared the atmosphere within the administration
to that during the time of Watergate, where Nixon
considered utilizing America’s nuclear arsenal to create a
devastating diversion from domestic calamity.
"Nothing this administration would do would surprise me, they’re desperate right now."
"If you go back and take a look at the Nixon administration during the height of Watergate Nixon was talking about using nuclear weapons against the Soviets in the Middle East, insanity of this nature."
"When you have an irresponsible administration like the Nixon administration, like this current administration, and they start to feel embattled, surrounded, they take on a fortress like mentality where everybody becomes the enemy."

Asked if he thought a staged terror attack was possible, a scenario previously
considered by former CIA analyst Ray McGovern, Ritter responded,
"Yeah, you have people who have no regard for
the rule of law. These aren’t people who appreciate the Constitution, to
them the Constitution is an impediment, it’s an obstacle, it’s something
in the way, it’s something to be avoided. They are married to an ideology
of global domination, of global imperialism and they’re not going to deviate
from this."
Regarding the issue of imminent indictments of top
Bush administration officials, Ritter stated,
"I think the President should be investigated
to determine whether he’s committed a crime and if a crime has been committed
then the President must be held accountable, fully accountable, to the rule
of law."
Ritter dispelled any potential charges of partisanship
by stating, "If we’re going to go after Bush then we have to go after
Clinton."
"We’ve got to make sure that we set the record
straight that this isn’t about partisan bashing, Bush bashing. This is about
reasserting the rule of law as set forth by the Constitution and reasserting
the power of the people."
On the subject of which country will be subject to
the next Neo-Con invasion, Ritter commented,
"There are elements within the Bush administration,
especially Donald Rumsfeld’s associates, Doug Fife, Wolfowitz and others
whose long goal crossed the line of serving America and they started serving
another country out there, Israel."
"This administration wants to go to Syria, wants
to go to Iran. Iran has turned into a little more difficult of a proposition
both diplomatically and militarily, and financially. So Iran may be pushed
to the back-burner right now, doesn’t mean it’s going away, we should never
forget that."
"We’re going to go small first and I think that
with Syria the feeling in the Bush administration is that this is a very
easy target, it’s one that would make Israel very happy if we took out this
regime."
"I’m not sure it’s going to be as easy as they
think it’s going to be."
Ritter’s claims have continually been proven to be
accurate even in the face of numerous establishment media and government
attempts to defame his character.
Ritter is the latest of a rash of credible people both
inside and outside of government to voice concerns that a staged terror
attack blamed on Iran or Syria could be used as the pretext to instigate
pre-planned invasions and further entrench a police state in the US.
Former CIA analyst and Bush 41 staffer Ray
McGovern gave similar sentiments as well as British Member
or Parliament George
Galloway.

Absent any evidence that the US government is planning to stage a terror attack, Ritter is free to speculate, and the Bellaciao herd is free to follow.
Is there any actual news behind this story, or is it pure speculation?

The Hoax attacks , the hysteria , the emails and phones tapped and the kind of books you read at the library are just the beginning of a police state ..

I would suggest citizens start preparing for the NEXT attack on America by the forces that wanted so badly to get INTO Afghanistan and Iraq. While many brainwashed American Sheeple download all of the garbage spewing out of state run propaganda sources like FAUX news and CNN (Corporate news Network) others have awoken and are asking REAL questions and are trying to find ALL of the facts.
Thank God for true Patriots that deeply value the Constitution and it’s Blessed Bill of Rights, like Ritter (AND Alex Jones) and let’s hope this band of criminal NeoCONS can be stopped in time before they have the Strausian Police State they so longingly desire.
9-11 was ABSOLUTELY and ’inside’ job, a false flag type of operation just as PNAC said they needed "a Pearl Harbor type event". The REAL conspiracy theory is that a band of mideasterners hiding out in caves became such expert flyers they flew a plane directly into the first floor of one of the most heavily protected buildings on the planet and were so expert they didn’t even disturb the Pentagon lawn—And then of course left a flight manual and a Koran in their trunk!!! Good grief it is so sad to see some Americans so dumbed down they will believe just about anything they see on their T.V.s or are told by government mouthpieces.
Go to the Infowars Alex Jones website and start READING, asking questions, and educate yourself with all of the info there— things FAUX propaganda will NEVER tell you.
Ask why world trade center seven collapsed. Ask why Silverstein said they had to "pull" it. Think about why he took ownership of the trade towers only weeks before they were hit, upped his insurance and hired ex-head FBI agent Oneal (who was working hard to find REAL terrorists and was FIRED because of it) only ONE DAY before the towers were hit and who was found DEAD there. ASK, ASK, ASK, keep learning, ASK some more and SHARE, SHARE, SHARE. The next attack may be nuclear or microbial since the Neo-CON plan is stalling and the indictments are circling. The Bush/Cheney/ neo-CON killing machine knows it has limited time to do it’s dirty work and if they are to acomplish the death of the Bill of Rights they undoubtedly will have to stage another false flag type operation THIS time maybe killing tens or hundreds of thousands so they can try and inact there long desired "martial law" over America and set up their Reich. Let’s hope and pray HONEST freedom loving patriots will stand firm and NEVER them to succeed.
Thank you Mr. Ritter and Mr. Jones. I salute you both!!!

Absent a brain, Bush sycophants are free to come here and try to defend his immoral practices even if no minds will be changed. We still hate your kind for being the reason Bu$hco is allowed to stay in power and to tear our country apart with his warmongering and his criminal looting of the treasury and to continue to make the U.S. a target for every angry citizen of the world who has been harmed with they lies of the evil phony "Christian" "born again" bastard Bu$h, and his gang of murdering goons.
26 October 2005, 15:29
So you’re proud of your hatred. Whatever happened to "Hate is not a family value"?
27 October 2005, 01:57
What about TRUTH....is that a value of your’s or your family????? My guess is NOT. Probably not because you are blinded by your false patriotism or your so called "Christian" values, my guess is that it is STUPIDITY like most of your kind.
28 October 2005, 15:58
don’t be a tool of that pushes division and hatred. The powers that be have scripted this false division between repubs and dems to keep us busy fighting each other rather than uniting and focusing our attention on them.
they want to divide and conquer us
so do everything possible to unite- remember blind bush believers are just that- 99% are not evil, just fooled and afraid to admit it. If they knew what we know, they would never support what Bush is doing, so let’s all try to peacefully inform the bush believers- and yes some of the bushie posts here may be by paid operatives, expose them with clear, concise logic and links to back up your point.

Take it easy on the all-caps. You’re going to rupture something.

Amman’s bombings, clearly directed against American companies, would eventually be blamed On Syria. This would give the U.S./Israeli axis of evil, ample excuse to attack the Syrians.

This makes sense in light of the current scandal rocking the Vice President. Cheney clearly understood that exposing Plame would bring down the entire undercover operation she was involved in. Her group was seeking intelligence on clandestine sale of nuclear weapons. So basically these operatives were trying to stop the smuggling of backpack nukes into the US. Her exposure led to a collapse of the entire intelligence network, jettisoning years of work, numerous covers, and possibly even triggering the assassination of some agents.
Cheney would have known this, and I find it extremely implausible that he could thought these far-reaching effects on national security to be justified by the desire to discredit Wilson. Why not just set him up in some other way? No one knows better than Scott Ritter how easily they can discredit a critic. No, they had to want to take down Plame’s operation. She was the target, and the attack on Joe Wilson is a cover up.
I guess the question that leads us to is why would Cheney’s cabal want to interfere with efforts to stop nukes from entering the US? Is it merely a coincidence that just months ago, seemingly out of nowhere, Cheney announced that the US would retaliate with nuclear weapons against any country that detonated a nuclear device in the US? Is it also a coincidence that it was leaked that a nuclear terrorist attack in the US would be met by the bunkering of a small group of personnel to be the “acting” government, while the Constitution is “suspended”.
I’m not implying that they are planning the importation of a nuke. Neither do I believe they planned 9/11. But there is the distinct possibility that they might have simply let it happen. Now with a taste of success in the form of Iraq and the Patriot act, they think they can do it again. Let a small nuke go off in Davenport, Iowa. Claiming Iran bought the nuke on the black market will allow them to retaliate against Iran and scare the people a bit more. It worked once with 9/11 and Iraq, it can work again, right? Owning the Middle East from Iraq to Afghanistan is not an easy temptation to overlook. But the efforts to cook intelligence as an excuse to go to war can only work when the real spies are out of the way.

Wow, that’s very interesting if accurate about Plames area of operations.
I don’t recall the source but I had also read that the operations were covering biological weapons research and that the incidences of all of these reported cases of dead ’microbiologists’ may in fact be very closely linked. It makes me think of Bush’s repeated use of the word ’pandemic’ as of late and how he talks about the Neo-Con wet dream of "martial law" if say a terrible ’bird flu" just happened to come along. As is well known he openly expresses his desire to be dictator.
I do have to say though I absolutely believe at least SOME members of the current administration had to be in on ’allowing’ 9-11 to happen and therefore are co-conspirators. While Bush Jr. may not have actually "ordered" 9-11 as some folks suggest, his behavior CLEARLY gives the game away he expected it to occur. That a "stand down" happened IMO is evident.
BIg oil/gas energy wanted INTO Afghanistan for Caspian OIl and in the months immediately preceding 9-11 negotiations had reportedly broken down with the Taliban. IMO it seems the decision was made in the neoCon circle way before 9-11, that the OIL and geographic location for military bases was worth committing U.S. troops over. Just like the Spanish American War one simply needed a Maine to arouse the sleepy American Sheeple to action and imperialism or perhaps as PNAC concluded a *fortunate* "pearl Harbor type event."
My personal opinion is that it was ENTIRELY scripted for Sheeple consuption.
26 October 2005, 18:03
Absolutely right!! If we are to be honest lin discussing "staged" terrorist events we have to start by discussing 9/11, and how it turned out to be such a great opportunity for this Administration!
From the quick enaction of the Patriot Act to gaining control of Afghanistan oil(weren’t the hijackers Saudi’s?), to invading Iraq, funding Cheney’s Haliburton with billions in contracts, to funneling billions of dollars(gone missing) out of Iraq into the Bushies private accounts??
This group didn’t just allow it to happen, thay had toomuch to gain to take ANY chances other then controling the situation themselves. Have you not seen the videos of small explosions going off at Trade Towers at the lower floors before they went down, and do you think that the terrorists could have made these 3 buildings implode?Wouldn’t there have had to be prior access to these buildings. Wasn’t a member of the Bush family in charge of security at the Towers?
Once you seriously question 9/11the "official story" falls into as many pieces as did the buildings. It is also scarey how the media is implicit in their lacking to ask questions!
Obviously, after 9/11 anything that you imagine this group of "thugs" that calls themselves the Administration do is defenitely within the realm of belief! They care about themselves only and not only is the Constitution an impediment but we the people are the biggest one!
Keep your eyes open!

These bastards are not christians they are satanist. Bush made a vow to The Order of the Skull and Bones just like his father and his grand father and John Kerry. The Order of the Skull and Bones, Bohemian Grove, Thule Society are all connected to The Broutherhood of Death Society. The Masons and freemasonry are the ones who started this country. There marks are all over the symbols of this country. The washington monument is 555 feet tall times 12 = 6660 inches. The layout of the streets in D.C. is in the shape of a Pentagram with the White House on the bottom which signifies the spirit of Lucifer. It was no coincidence that Bush was reading the story of the Goat on 9-11. The Goat is a very powerfull image in the occult and it was no coincidence that it accured on the 11th. Daniel 7:8 10 horns then the 11th horn was the Antichrist. 9-11 signified the arrival of the Antichrist. www.bushisantichist.com

Ritter really does make a good point,
the neoCons seem to openly show their HATRED for The Bill of Rights and The Republic, and have instead adopted some obnoxious mix of Police State CommiFascism imperialism where ’might makes right’. They claim to believe in Christ but in reality admittedly worship Machiavelli.
Bush openly espouses his desire to be dictator and how he would love to have his wildest fantasy of trying to enact some type of "martial law" if say a convieninet "bird flu" happened to hit the ’homeland’ or those suitcase nukes just happened to conveniently show up.
Also I think Ritter is right these people being fanatics in the first place, when stressed with the failure of the wars so far and the economy and the indictments on the way might really try some diversion even a very deadly one. I think FEW now put it past them with all that has come out that another False Flag Terror event may be being considered and America(and the world) had best be prepared.

False Flags Abound
27 October 2005, 08:25
the indicment is a dog and pony show for the brainwashed public. Bush will just get his 8 ball out and do a few lines. so that he can get his jaw back to grinding. and it will be business as usual for Mr. Cokehead.
28 October 2005, 07:38
Bush is just a burnt out addict....he has been trying to not grind his jaw lately when the cameras roll, but his eyes are still fluttering 100 mph, and he is still drooling instead of speaking coherently.....I guess he has decided not to snort just before going on camera, it was a pretty stupid idea, glad to see he is at least intelligent enough to realize it makes him look like a complete idiot to snort a bunch and then go on camera and grind his jaw and wiggle around and fidget. If I didn’t know how dangerous he is in that condition, I would feel sorry for him, but I think it is inexcusable for him to be using drugs he would send other people to jail for.
29 October 2005, 05:14
It’s odd all around the net so many bloggers seem to know Bush’s (and Clintons) coke use signs. I tend to think though most of this current generation really doesn’t care and in a way as one who holds Jeffersonian type "libertarianism" dear I have no problem personally with what ever one chooses, barring directly infringing upon the rights of another. However, it goes without saying these "elitists"of course seem to have been born into the it’s OK for me but wrong for you type mentality.
Listening to the radio often I see about every other song is a drug related song and it would be every one except they are dispersed with songs about sex. The media absolutely promotes drug use and our pharmaceutical companies constantly promote synthetic drug use which is often only different by patent than the street drugs.
I do worry however about certain people in certain jobs using drugs and some laws have tried to ban drug use say from jobs concerning public safety. Having a president who might be enhancing his already previous tendancies of despondancy and grandeur with a numerous and often dosed lines of white powder could very well be disastrous.
29 October 2005, 06:37
George Bush here not to worry i’ll do a few lines and orchestate anouther attack "false flag" just like 911 and that will give me the pretext to go in after Iran. Then I will draft more cannon fodder for the military. hehehehehehehhehehhehehheeheheheh Oh and if any of you brain surgens get any idears I will use rex 84 for it’s real porpose inwhich i will lock up Americans for orderly disposal and for GLUE production. Martial Law is right around the corner. hahahahahahahhahahahahhahahah I will make Hitler look like a boyscout. tu tulu

I defnatively believe that Bush and his Neo Con (Nazis) will stage another false flag attack, this will kick in phase II of the push to take control of the entire middle eastern lands, the lands that comprised the ancient Assyrian Empire. If you take the Bible prophicies of Jeremiah and Isaiah and substitute the name "George W. Bush" for every place where the name "The Assyrian" is mentioned, then you will begin to get the real picture of todays events. It seems to me that George W. Bush is the 21st century "The Assyrian" of Bible prophecies.
13 November 2005, 20:13
I wonder if perhaps Bush doesn’t see himself in that role also— if so by default we may have self-fulfilling prophecy come about. That the Neo-CONS(and handlers) have a huge insatiable bloodlust is IMO OBVIOUS and I honestly believe they would love nothing more than to set off an Armageddon. I hope and pray there are still a few sane people left in our gov. (and the world) that will LEAD by example and stand up with COURAGE to as the neoCONS say their lust for "WW4"!
Personally I simply believe BUsh and Co, HIDE behind the cloak of ’christianity’ (following in Hitler’s *moral* leadership path) and fake so called (falsely) christians (wolves in sheeps clothing) EXTREMISTS like Pat Robertson or Falwell being the ’blind leading the blind" Sheeple-like lemming masses over the cliff.
