Crisis in America #4: Hope, Faith and Courage No Matter What the Consequences Are
Hello everyone
Again the amount of reading to do to follow this unfolding drama is staggering. And again the astounding material I'm getting all seems to confirm the thesis of an inside job with far-reaching and potentially very frightening repercussions. Please understand that I do not wish to further increase the level of anxiety and stress many are experiencing when confronted with the enormous shock this tragedy is causing. But having a better grasp of what really happened is the only way to get some sense of clarity about this event and about what we can do, when united in lighted service, to help shift the global awareness of people from one of fear and anger to one of love and compassion.
Unfortunately, there is no way I'll be able to circulate all the numerous emails of personal comments I received yesterday as I already have more material than I can put in 2 compilations for you tonight from what I received today. Please check for the next Meditation Focus later on this Friday evening as it will contain some key focal points of attention and suggestions to assist in gradually transforming this situation into an empowering example of the power of Love to manifest peace and healing despite the greatest odds against it.
Your assistance in circulating this material and the next Meditation Focus will be immeasureably helpful.
As is so poignantly expressed in the first letter below, we have to make a conscious effort to maintain our hope, faith and courage no matter what the consequences are...

This is an opportunity for a massive expression of compassion. It is also an opportunity for a massive expression of revenge. Which world do you intend to live in -- a world of revenge or a world of compassion?"

Dear Jean:
My name is Sofy and we had been in contact by phone from Chile some years ago. You were asking for some dreams or spiritual messages related to what is happening now. This is what I've got:
On July 1999 one day in the evening being with my children, who were playing and shouting like crazy and with my husband who was listening together with me to this beautiful song "The Prayer" performed by Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli I suddenly felt, in the middle of all this noise and to my complete surprise, the presence of the Christ Consciousness, first in front of me and then surrounding me with a strong feeling of unconditional love. I got kind of paralyzed, thinking at the same time it was a bad moment to have a contact of this kind because of the circumstances I was in, and then I heard the following: "I want you to know that in the near future, mankind is going to go under a great shock. The events will take place in one specific place, but will be known all over the world and will affect the whole world. I want to tell you that no matter what the consequences are, you have to make a conscious effort to maintain your hope, faith and courage. I want you to know also that when this comes to its end, you will all realize that this was the best thing that could have happened to mankind, even though from your human point of view, it could be looked at as something terrible. But my main message to you is to keep always your hope, faith and courage, no matter what".
Some days later, I received a call from a friend called Antonio, also involved in spiritual matters who said that the Christ Consciousness had gotten in touch with him asking him to call me and tell me what he had experienced. So that same day he travelled 500 kilometers to talk with me in person and he told me he had a terrible vision of some kind of catastrophe and saw a lot of people crying and mourning. None of us had a date or the place where this was going to happen. I talked to him some 2 weeks ago and he told me that he had the strong feeling that something terrible was about to happen and I confirmed his feelings, because I was feeling the same. I had also talked to another friend, Ricardo, who had expressed to me the same concerns, also some two weeks ago. Today we all know what was all about. So I want through you to spread this message coming from such a far place as Chile in South America, because, maybe, no matter what we spiritually intend to do the thing will go in a way that could "appear" as terrible to our human eyes.
SO NO MATTER WHAT FINALLY HAPPENS PLEASE KEEP YOUR FAITH, HOPE, AND COURAGE.
In Love and Light
SOFY

Blessings,
I am writing in response to your lovely email about Tuesday Sept. 11 events. I did have a dream that shook me awake the night before. I dreamt that I was being fired from my work by my boss who held a gun to my belly. I walked away from the dream with thoughts of authority aggression and violence and fear and hatred. It has stuck with me because it is so off-color for my typical dreams which I use to decipher my issues and struggles. The hatred that invaded my dream is not a normal thing for me. And the basis for the dream is not only untrue but odd to say the very least. I then discovered after waking from my dream that the morning was not going to be any ordinary morning. I do feel that I was tapped into the violent stream of energies that were already forming an intent. And the symbology was along the same lines--fear of another having complete control over the outcome, the use of a gun represents violence, and my fear was a very real thing. As Earth Healers, we each do have the capacity to tap into these kind of ill-made plans and I really felt as though there had been a big hole punched into the Web of Life. We all felt the vibrations.
Thank you for all your efforts in educating others about the right way to deal with this catastrophe. I believe the best thing to do for us empaths is to allow the sorrow and anguish move through us, run its course, and then release it back to the Universe to be changed. We should not hold onto this energy for it can destroy us and fuel other hatreds. The Creator can handle this energy, we don't have to!
Love and peace and blessings to the suffering,</P>

It is a very emotional time for all Americans as well as for all those that desire peace in the world.
That is why I found the following email sent to me this afternoon from a Cafe member in Sweden to be most chilling. "What have we here," I have been pondering all day?
Prior to this email, it struck me how the planes in the videos appeared to be all entering their targets at 45 degree angles. I thought how strange. Then this
showed up:
Bill:
Re-reading Nostradamus' to see "IF" what had happened
could be identified and his writings? Not only identified therein, but are
frightenly correct...
Nostradamus' prediction on WW3:
"In the year of the new century and nine months,
From the sky will come a great King of Terror...
The sky will burn at forty-five degrees.
Fire approaches the great new city..."
"In the city of york there will be a great collapse,
2 twin brothers torn apart by chaos
while the fortress falls the great leader will succumb
third big war will begin when the big city is burning"
-- NOSTRADAMUS
Note from Jean: Here is also another version of this same prediction that someone else sent me:
"In the City of God there will be a great thunder, Two brothers torn
apart by Chaos, while the fortress endures, the great leader will
succumb", "The third big war will begin when the big city is burning"

WHO IS OUSMANE BIN LADEN?
by Michel Chossudovsky
Professor of Economics, University of Ottawa
Centre for Research on Globalisation (CRG) at http:/globalresearch.ca.
The url of this article is http://globalresearch.ca/articles/CHO109C.html
Posted 12 September 2001
A few hours after the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon, the Bush administration concluded without supporting evidence, that "Ousmane bin Laden and his al-Qaeda organisation were prime suspects". CIA Director George Tenet stated that bin Laden has the capacity to plan ``multiple attacks with little or no warning.'' Secretary of State Colin Powell called the attacks "an act of war" and President Bush confirmed in an evening televised address to the Nation that he would "make no distinction between the terrorists who committed these acts and those who harbor them". Former CIA Director James Woolsey pointed his finger at "state sponsorship," implying the complicity of one or more foreign governments. In the words of former National Security Adviser, Lawrence Eagleburger, "I think we will show when we get attacked like this, we are terrible in our strength and in our retribution."
Meanwhile, parroting official statements, the Western media mantra has approved the launching of "punitive actions" directed against civilian targets in the Middle East. In the words of William Saffire writing in the New York Times: "When we reasonably determine our attackers' bases and camps, we must pulverize them -- minimizing but accepting the risk of collateral damage -- and act overtly or covertly to destabilize terror's national hosts".
The following text outlines the history of Ousmane Bin Laden and the links of the Islamic "Jihad" to the formulation of US foreign policy during the Cold War and its aftermath.
* * *
Prime suspect in the New York and Washington terrorists attacks, branded by the FBI as an "international terrorist" for his role in the African US embassy bombings, Saudi born Ousmane bin Laden was recruited during the Soviet-Afghan war "ironically under the auspices of the CIA, to fight Soviet invaders". 1
In 1979 "the largest covert operation in the history of the CIA" was launched in response to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in support of the pro-Communist government of Babrak Kamal.2:
"With the active encouragement of the CIA and Pakistan's ISI [Inter Services Intelligence], who wanted to turn the Afghan jihad into a global war waged by all Muslim states against the Soviet Union, some 35,000 Muslim radicals from 40 Islamic countries joined Afghanistan's fight between 1982 and 1992. Tens of thousands more came to study in Pakistani madrasahs. Eventually more than 100,000 foreign Muslim radicals were directly influenced by the Afghan jihad."3 The Islamic "jihad" was supported by the United States and Saudi Arabia with a significant part of the funding generated from the Golden Crescent drug trade:
"In March 1985, President Reagan signed National Security Decision Directive 166,...[which] authorize[d] stepped-up covert military aid to the mujahideen, and it made clear that the secret Afghan war had a new goal: to defeat Soviet troops in Afghanistan through covert action and encourage a Soviet withdrawal. The new covert U.S. assistance began with a dramatic increase in arms supplies -- a steady rise to 65,000 tons annually by 1987, ... as well as a "ceaseless stream" of CIA and Pentagon specialists who traveled to the secret headquarters of Pakistan's ISI on the main road near Rawalpindi, Pakistan. There the CIA specialists met with Pakistani intelligence officers to help plan operations for the Afghan rebels."4
The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) using Pakistan's military Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) played a key role in training the Mujahideen. In turn, the CIA sponsored guerrilla training was integrated with the teachings of Islam:
"Predominant themes were that Islam was a complete socio-political ideology, that holy Islam was being violated by the atheistic Soviet troops, and that the Islamic people of Afghanistan should reassert their independence by overthrowing the leftist Afghan regime propped up by Moscow."5
PAKISTAN'S INTELLIGENCE APPARATUS
Pakistan's ISI was used as a "go-between". The CIA covert support to the "jihad" operated indirectly through the Pakistani ISI, --i.e. the CIA did not channel its support directly to the Mujahideen. In other words, for these covert operations to be "successful", Washington was careful not to reveal the ultimate objective of the "jihad", which consisted in destroying the Soviet Union.
In the words of CIA's Milton Beardman "We didn't train Arabs". Yet according to Abdel Monam Saidali, of the Al-aram Center for Strategic Studies in Cairo, bin Laden and the "Afghan Arabs" had been imparted "with very sophisticated types of training that was allowed to them by the CIA" 6
CIA's Beardman confirmed, in this regard, that Ousmane bin Laden was not aware of the role he was playing on behalf of Washington. In the words of bin Laden (quoted by Beardman): "neither I, nor my brothers saw evidence of American help". 7
Motivated by nationalism and religious fervor, the Islamic warriors were unaware that they were fighting the Soviet Army on behalf of Uncle Sam. While there were contacts at the upper levels of the intelligence hierarchy, Islamic rebel leaders in theatre had no contacts with Washington or the CIA.
With CIA backing and the funneling of massive amounts of US military aid, the Pakistani ISI had developed into a "parallel structure wielding enormous power over all aspects of government". 8 The ISI had a staff composed of military and intelligence officers, bureaucrats, undercover agents and informers, estimated at 150,000. 9
CLIP
In other words, backed by Pakistan's military intelligence (ISI) which in turn was controlled by the CIA, the Taliban Islamic State was largely serving American geopolitical interests. The Golden Crescent drug trade was also being used to finance and equip the Bosnian Muslim Army (starting in the early 1990s) and the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA). In last few months there is evidence that Mujahideen mercenaries are fighting in the ranks of KLA-NLA terrorists in their assaults into Macedonia.
No doubt, this explains why Washington has closed its eyes on the reign of terror imposed by the Taliban including the blatant derogation of women's rights, the closing down of schools for girls, the dismissal of women employees from government offices and the enforcement of "the Sharia laws of punishment".20
THE WAR IN CHECHNYA
With regard to Chechnya, the main rebel leaders Shamil Basayev and Al Khattab were trained and indoctrinated in CIA sponsored camps in Afghanistan and Pakistan. According to Yossef Bodansky, director of the U.S. Congress's Task Force on Terrorism and Unconventional Warfare, the war in Chechnya had been planned during a secret summit of HizbAllah International held in 1996 in Mogadishu, Somalia. 21 The summit, was attended by Osama bin Laden and high-ranking Iranian and Pakistani intelligence officers. In this regard, the involvement of Pakistan's ISI in Chechnya "goes far beyond supplying the Chechens with weapons and expertise: the ISI and its radical Islamic proxies are actually calling the shots in this war". 22
Russia's main pipeline route transits through Chechnya and Dagestan. Despite Washington's perfunctory condemnation of Islamic terrorism, the indirect beneficiaries of the Chechen war are the Anglo-American oil conglomerates which are vying for control over oil resources and pipeline corridors out of the Caspian Sea basin.
The two main Chechen rebel armies (respectively led by Commander Shamil Basayev and Emir Khattab) estimated at 35,000 strong were supported by Pakistan's ISI, which also played a key role in organizing and training the Chechen rebel army:
CLIP
CONCLUDING REMARKS
Since the Cold War era, Washington has consciously supported Ousmane bin Laden, while at same time placing him on the FBI's "most wanted list" as the World's foremost terrorist.
While the Mujahideen are busy fighting America's war in the Balkans and the former Soviet Union, the FBI --operating as a US based Police Force- is waging a domestic war against terrorism, operating in some respects independently of the CIA which has --since the Soviet-Afghan war-- supported international terrorism through its covert operations.
In a cruel irony, while the Islamic jihad --featured by the Bush Adminstration as "a threat to America"-- is blamed for the terrorist assaults on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon, these same Islamic organisations constitute a key instrument of US military-intelligence operations in the Balkans and the former Soviet Union.
In the wake of the terrorist attacks in New York and Washington, the truth must prevail to prevent the Bush Adminstration together with its NATO partners from embarking upon a military adventure which threatens the future of humanity.

Subject: Let's start thinking for ourselves
To whom it may concern:
OK, friends. I am sending this email far and wide because Ive about had it with our news media. All I hope to accomplish with this email is to get you and your friends to SERIOUSLY DOUBT the veracity of our news system and to question seriously ANY MOVEMENT TOWARDS RETALIATORY ACTION AND WAR. We are in no way ready to start a revenge attack until we gather a lot more information.
President Bush is being very careful to rephrase this as an Act of War, not of Terrorism. Watch carefully and please read between the lines. If enough of us wake up in time, we can slam the breaks on this whole steamroller of emotion and anger before it gets out of control.
I also apologize in advance for the possible anger and resentment this email may cause to some of you who feel now is a time for absolute loyalty to our government. Well, I wonder if you wouldnt be willing to rephrase that a little and talk about absolute loyalty to the people of this country AND to those in our government who are now courageously defending them.
I by no means suggest to you that I AGREE WITH OR ENDORSE the opinions below. I am only presenting them as a sampling of thoughts and ideas that will open our minds to other information or possibilities other than what our American prime time media is presenting us. In other words:
LETS START THINKING FOR OURSELVES
Here's my intro to the list of emails below:
WOOLSEY TALKS TOO MUCH
(Please remember this is a third hand account DO NOT TAKE THIS ACCOUNT LITERALLY this is a paraphrase of what I was told yesterday. Some of you may have heard this and can straighten it out a little if you did.) Grapevine: James Woolsey (former CIA director - friend of mine saw this on TV) said that the gang that had committed the first bombing of the WTC had, in their plans, a second attack involving TWO JET AIRLINERS HITTING THE WTC. He said this on a TV interview in which he was not present but on a phone line. He also said the papers around that incident have been locked up for national security, etc and was about to name names. At that point, the news anchor interrupted and said they had lost contact with Mr. Woolsey on his telephone at which point Woolsey said, No, I'm right here. at which point they actually DID loose contact with him.
(Please remember this is a third hand account.)
BUILDING COLLAPSE DEBATE
See important points in emails below. When they said it was a classic demolition scenario, at first I strongly disagreed as most demos I have seen start at the bottom and take down the top. Apparently that is not necessarily the case. As a friend of mine in the engineering business said, "Gosh, where are all the engineer talking heads. You think they'd have at least one guy talking about how the buildings collapsed." Be sure they will in the near future, but in the mean time, read what some of them are saying now.
SECOND PLANE
As you will see, the media is apparently already editing out photos of a strange semi transparent craft or airplane spotted in one of the videos and seen in photos. Not to worry, several people have archived these photos and are now looking into it. This object was recorded in more than one video shot.
OSAMA BIN LADEN (friend of the CIA)
If you're angry at Muslims and ready to go "take them out", please first read about Osama's work with the CIA below.
OOPS
Well, finally an explanation I believe. The main reason for hitting the WTC was the destruction of financial records vital to our economy. Read about it and how the CIA certainly DID have advance knowledge of this event in Skolnick's report below.
BODY COUNT
WTC towers hold 50,000? Well, not according to the Architect. But then who the hell is he to question CNN?
THE PEOPLES NEWS SERVICE
Friends, since the News will not work or even entertain the kinds of things we are discussing here, lets all agree to do our own research and send it out to our friends. Weve got to let the world know that the issue occurring right now is very complicated and we are no where near ready to go bomb the hell out of anybody.
Oh, and please tell all the people predicting end of the world, stock market crash, alien invasion and appearance of the Anti-Christ to please go get a prescription for valium and go home and watch comedy videos for a while. If they wanted us to go into full tilt crumble, they would have used a worse scenario.
We owe it to the thousands of people who have died in these horrendous incidents to find the truth before we go around beating people up for it.

DEMOLITION EXPERT SAYS WTC WAS BOMBED Towers collapse "too methodical" CHARGES PLANTED IN WTC
Photo of 2nd plane. Shallow angle of impact.
A PsyOpNews.com Alert
Van Romero, vice president for research at New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology says the collapse of the twin towers resembled those of controlled implosions used in planned demolition.
"My opinion is, based on the videotapes, that after the airplanes hit the World Trade Center there were some explosive devices inside the buildings that caused the towers to collapse," Romero said.
A demolition expert, Romero is a former director of the Energetic Materials Research and Testing Center at Tech, which studies explosive materials and the effects of explosions on buildings, aircraft and other structures.
He said he and Denny Peterson, vice president for administration and finance, were en route to an office building near the Pentagon to discuss defense-funded research programs at Tech. Romero told the Albuquerque <http://www.abqjournal.com/aqvan09-11-01.htm> Journal that he based his opinion on video aired on national television broadcasts.
The detonations could have been caused by a small amount of explosive put in more than two points in each of the towers, he said. "It could have been a relatively small amount of explosives placed in strategic points," Romero said.

Now is the time that all of us need to be the best investigators that we can possibly be. I suggest that, in the earliest moments, some of us take responsibility for monitoring CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox and MS-NBC to log reports as they come in. As with previous stories of lesser magnitude our strengths lay in keeping side by side evaluations and watching for discrepancies and alterations.
I've been mostly watching the one local NYC station still operating (the other local stations all had their antennas on top of the WTC), and one thing I noticed that has been mentioned by survivors or rescue personnel who have been interviewed is the fact that all of them have mentioned secondary explosions occurring at the bottom level of the Towers after the planes struck. One rescue personnel person actually stated that vans with explosives had been parked in the lower parking level and rigged to go off after the planes struck....
I haven't heard this mentioned on any of the national media stations...
A construction worker who had been working in one of the Towers was just interviewed, he said that after the first plane struck and they saw debris raining down, they debated what to do, and this guy said that 'someone' told them that they should stay put and not evacuate, but they decided to ignore that advice and leave anyway...that is the only reason this guy and his coworkers were still alive...
I wonder who this person was who went around telling people to stay put, and how many victims can be attributed to those following that advice...
______
I'm again watching WCBS-TV this morning, which is still the only local NYC station available here in Connecticut...
If you remember, yesterday I mentioned in a post that this station interviewed a construction worker who said that as he and his coworkers debated evacuating the tower they were working in after the first plane hit, that 'someone' told them to stay where they were and not evacuate; luckily the construction worker and his buddies decided to ignore the 'advice' (command?) and evacuated, and that was probably the only reason they survived.
Just now WCBS-TV interviewed a woman who worked on the 31st floor of the tower that was the site of the first plane crash; she said that the building visibly swayed and that she and her coworkers first thought it was an earthquake until they saw paper and debris falling by their window from above...
She said that they decided immediately to evacuate, and that when they reached the stairwell that it was already filling with smoke (keep in mind that the plane crashed some 60 or so stories above her -- the fact that the stairwell was filling with smoke some 60 stories below within a few minutes to me points out one of the serious flaws in the design of the towers, namely that the empty central core acts as a chimney in such situations...)
This woman said that she and the others evacuating with her made it down to the 12th floor when 'someone' confronted and ORDERED THEM TO STOP EVACUATING. According to her, they all were forced out of the stairwells on the 12th floor and into a room that had a TV going that was showing what was happening outside. It was while watching this TV that they saw the 2nd plane hit the tower next to them, and to this woman's credit she basically said 'later for this', and she and most of the people who had been herded into this room on the 12th floor went right back out to the stairwell and got out of the building as quickly as possible....
Again we have an eyewitness stating that 'someone' seemed to be going out of their way to keep people in the towers instead of encouraging an orderly evacuation...and one has to wonder how many casualties may be due to people heeding the advice/command of this mysterious 'someone' (who in fact may be more than one person)...
Also last night this station had a reporter stationed at one of the area hospitals where victims were lined up, waiting for treatment. One of the victims interviewed was an Oriental gentleman and his wife (presumably tourists) -- the man had a severe burn on his foot which, he explained, he received when he entered the bottom level of one of the towers just after the plane hit it (WHY they entered at that moment was not addressed; personally I would have hightailed it out of there as soon as I saw the plane hit)...
But what this guy said was that they entered the lobby and were there about 15 or 30 seconds when there was an explosion FROM THE LOWER LEVEL, and it was this explosion that caused the severe burn on his foot...
So now we not only have yet another direct eyewitness to these explosions from the lower level of the WTC (below the lobby level), but at least one person injured due to these lower or underground explosions...
_____
I'm sure all of you have skimmed the various news reports today, reserving your most profound attention for my unconventional analysis. Here's my questions and hence my takes on this thing:
I. Why didn't the bad guys use some sort of bio-weapon like Anthrax? These guys may be EVIL, but they are not stupid in the conventional sense of the term. A pound or two of anthrax either on the bodies of the baddies, or propositioned on one of the towers would have produced an EXPONENTIALLY higher casualty rate (Anthrax spores are notoriously resistant to heat). Why invest such immense resources in what were obviously well planned out attacks and miss such a basic avenue?
II. To me the final collapse of the WTC buildings looked fishy. Now I'm no structural engineer (unless you're talking the basic structural design of a well made coney dog), but where WERE the talking head engineers on all of the news shows? Everyone, knows how DIFFICULT it is to bring down a skyscraper, it takes well placed explosives at strategic points THROUGHOUT the structure, (that or all of these demolition companies are running one heck of a scam). Could there have been propositioned explosives at the building sites? Why isn't the media even speculating as to this possibility?
III. Who else thinks that plane which crashed near Pittsburgh was possibly SHOT down by US planes intent on preventing more destruction?
IV. How many times have you heard Osama Bin Laden's name in the last ten years or so? Clinton supposedly tried to take him out several years ago with some cruise missiles Point is if we really wanted the guy he would already have been disposed of. This guy is the Trotsky of our time, Big Brother himself could not invent a more convenient villain.
Again, the key thesis with all of these points is WHY ARE NOT THE MEDIA at least asking these questions? I think almost everyone would respect the fact that a plane was shot down to save the life of many, if the fact were at least admitted as a possibility. The function of the news media is not to "ease the public's pain" or to "serve as the governments mouthpiece." Rather, it is to doggedly pursue the truth, and ask even the hardest of questions.
