London Bombings

I imagined what the reaction would be had something like that happened in the US, and was moved what I saw of the actual reaction of Londoners. The same was true of the Madrid bombings in 2004. And indeed the same was true of New Yorkers in 2001, even though the media and government very quickly defiled those human feelings.

Robert Fisk’s piece in the Independent suggests how these bombings will be used to inflame racism:

Robert Fisk’s piece in the Independent suggests how these bombings will be used to inflame racism:

Then come the Muslims of Britain, who have long been awaiting this nightmare. Now every one of our Muslims becomes the usual suspect, the man or woman with brown eyes, the man with the beard, the woman in the scarf, the boy with the worry beads, the girl who says she’s been racially abused.

I remember, crossing the Atlantic on 9/11 — my plane turned around off Ireland when the United States closed its airspace — how the aircraft purser and I toured the cabins to see if we could identify any suspicious passengers. I found about a dozen, of course, totally innocent men who had brown eyes or long beards or who looked at me with “hostility.” And sure enough, in just a few seconds, bin Laden turned nice, liberal, friendly Robert into an anti-Arab racist.

One thought on “London Bombings”

  1. The only link between
    The only link between “Muslims” and the London 7/7 bombings is that they are an innocent third party mutually agreed upon as suitable for the frame-up by the perpetrators and their target. For an explanation of how we may be sure that Israel ordered the London bombings – to a confidence factor of tens of thousands to one against a false conviction – please see
    http://www.takeourworldback.com/77suicidebombershoax/

    Alternatively,
    http://www.takeourworldback.com/zionistcrimes.htm
    shows how the London attacks relate to 9/11, the Bali bombings (2002 and 2005), Jordan attacks, Egyptian ferry sinking, Lockerbie Pan Am 103 bombing, JFK assassination, Reagan’s attack of Libya, Lavon Affair, World Wars I and II, imprisonment of historians / chemists / execution science experts, etc.

    The motive for London 7/7 was precisely the same as the Sharm al-Sheikh attack just 16 days later, which was Egypt’s worst ever terrorist atrocity. British Gas had done a deal to sell Palestinian gas to Egypt; Israel wanted to buy its energy from Egypt rather than Palestine in order to avoid bankrolling what it perceived as Palestinian terrorism. Israel had just concluded a $2.5 billion deal to buy natural gas from Egypt. When it found out that the British Gas deal effectively meant that Israel would both be contributing to Palestinian finances and paying a premium price into the bargain, attacks were ordered on the UK and Egypt.

    Government shills may pose as “bombing victims”, for example, winding up remarkably unscathed, posting all over the blogosphere within ten hours of the attacks, promoting the ludicrous “Muslim extremist” government account to the Press, and even admitting that they work full-time in the field of advertising and promotion. It does not change the fact that Israel did the attacks, and that it was physically impossible for the Muslim patsies to have got on and off the trains at the times claimed by the official account – which was concocted from the regular Thameslink timetable before the authorities realised that trains had been cancelled and delayed on the day due to problems with the overhead lines in the Mill Hill area.

    We now know that Jack Abramoff is a prime suspect for involvement in the “wasting” of the Muslim scapegoats for 9/11 (Mohammed Atta and others); they would have wound up as shark bait in the Gulf of Mexico after being lured onto his gambling boat. Rudi Giuliani, who was in Harrogate on July 6 and in London on July 7, is a major suspect for obtaining and planting evidence such as a receipt from a Leeds garden centre. It is high time the military quit working for a criminal cabal, and returned to their own nations to escort their treacherous “leaders” to some well-deserved war crimes tribunals.
