Intelligence agencies — legendary for staging numerous false flag attacks — are warning that Osama bin Laden has issued instructions for Mumbai-style attack on three European targets.

Earlier in the week U.S. officials issued a warning that Osama and crew would strike once again. The new plot, emerging suspiciously close to U.S. mid-term elections and coinciding with the Pentagon’s illegal murder campaign in Pakistan, is said to “credible but non-specific.” The new plot was supposedly revealed by a suspect undergoing “interrogation” at the Bagram torture facility in Afghanistan.

“Investigators believe al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden signed off on a European attack plan, a separate law enforcement source said. But U.S. and international officials say they have seen no sign of an imminent attack,” CNN reported on September 29.

Osama bin Laden: CIA Asset

Osama bin Laden ran MAK (Maktab al-Khidamat), an organization created by Pakistan’s ISI at the behest of the CIA. It funneled money, weapons, and internationally recruited fighters into the war created in part by Jimmy Carter’s National Security Adviser, Zbigniew Brezinski. Osama was closely tied to the Afghan warlord and ISI stooge Gulbuddin Hekmatyar who ran drugs for the CIA. In the 1980s, emissaries from the United States met with Osama. The CIA paid Osama to train the militant group Abu Sayyaf and others at his CIA-built camps in Afghanistan. In New York, Osama’s MAK operated the CIA-connected al-Kifah Refugee Center that was involved in the 1993 WTC bombing. The U.S. government would later call the al-Kifah charity the “precursor organization to al-Qaeda.”

MSNBC, the New Yorker, Le Monde, and other corporate media sources reported on these connections, but after September 11, 2001, the evidence was relegated to the memory hole and a new narrative was established.

Bin Laden Died in December, 2001

Osama bin Laden “died a peaceful death due to an untreated lung complication” in December, 2001, according to a report carried by none other than Fox News. The FBI, former Pakistan dictator Musharraf, Afghan puppet leader Hamid Karzai, Israeli intelligence, the late Benazir Bhutto, and many others have said Osama bin Laden is dead.

In a purported will published in a London-based Arab news magazine, al-Majalla, Osama allegedly instructed “mujahedeen everywhere” to “devote your efforts to purifying your groups from the agents and the cowards and those impostors who claim to be scholars amongst you,” in other words operatives working for the CIA, Mossad, and British intelligence.

CNN carried a report on the will on October 26, 2002, but the fact Osama is dead and buried is never mentioned when CNN publishes stories warning that the CIA created terror leader has issued a tape or warnings of attacks that never seem to occur.

Bin Laden: A Boogieman Designed to Perpetuate a Phony War on Terror

As David Ray Griffin notes, the phantom Osama is perpetually recycled to justify a war on terror designed to encompass a perpetually expanding array of targets. “Obama has appealed regularly to… intelligence estimates, which have invariably claimed that bin Laden is hiding in Pakistan, somewhere along its border with Pakistan. This claim has been used to justify the extension of US military activity into Pakistan,” Griffin wrote last October. The “fake bin Laden tapes appear to be simply one part of an extensive propaganda operation, in which the US military intelligence is using tax dollars – illegally – to propagandize the American public, with the aim of furthering the militarization of America and its foreign policy.”

Earlier this year, the CIA admitted “creating a fake video in which intelligence officers dressed up as Osama Bin Laden and his cronies in an effort to defame the terrorist leader,” Paul Jospeh Watson wrote on May 25. “This latest revelation bolsters evidence that the intelligence agencies, and perhaps more significantly, the military have been engaged in creating fake Bin Laden videos in the past.”

It is said Osama no longer produces video tapes because they may reveal his whereabouts. “Over recent years, bin Laden has issued audio tapes but no videos, after it emerged that the CIA was trying to identify where he was hiding by looking at the vegetation in videos he had released. In more than 30 audio and video tapes, he has warned European countries and the US about attacks and praised previous ones, although he has never talked of a preferred method,” reports the Telegraph.

Establishment Creates Fake Terror Threats for Political Gain

In July, a former senior adviser to Bill Clinton said that the only thing will rescue Obama’s presidency as his approval figures continue to plunge is a terror attack on the scale of Oklahoma City or 9/11. As Prison Planet noted July 14, Clinton was able to extinguish an anti-incumbent rebellion which was brewing in the mid 1990s by exploiting the OKC bombing to demonize his political enemies.

Former Secretary of Homeland Security Tom Ridge wrote in his memoir last year that the neocon-infested Bush administration had raised the nation’s terror alert level in the days before the 2004 presidential election.

“An election-eve drama was being played out at the highest levels of our government” after Osama bin Laden released a pre-election message critical of Bush, Ridge writes. Attorney General John Ashcroft and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld strongly advocated raising the security threat level to “orange,” even though Ridge believed a threatening message “should not be the sole reason to elevate the threat level,” CNN reported.
