Wikileaks Bombshell Points To 9/11 Stand Down

Newly released Wikileaks documents concerning the activities of three Qatari men who conducted surveillance of the World Trade Center and boarded flights on the eve of the 9/11 attacks adds to the plethora of evidence that at the very least US authorities were aware of the plot and deliberately stood down.

“The FBI has launched a manhunt for a previously unknown team of men suspected to be part of the 9/11 attacks,” reports the Daily Telegraph.

Secret documents reveal that the three Qatari men conducted surveillance on the targets, provided “support” to the plotters and had tickets for a flight to Washington on the eve of the atrocities.

Ten days later they flew to Los Angeles, where they stationed themselves in a hotel near the airport which the FBI has now established was paid for by a “convicted terrorist”, who also paid for their airline tickets.

Hotel staff have told investigators they saw pilot uniforms in their room along with computer print outs detailing pilot names, flight numbers and times and packages addressed to Syria, Afghanistan, Jerusalem and Jordan.

The revelation that these men may have been involved in the pre-planning for 9/11 again highlights the fact that the plot was known ahead of time. Whether they were double agents laying a trail for the attack to be later blamed on Muslim patsies or they were genuinely part of the plot is immaterial, the fact that their behavior, amidst a myriad of other obvious indications that an attack was imminent, was not acted upon by US authorities, provides yet more evidence of a stand down.

The US Special Operations Command’s Able Danger program identified the hijackers and their accomplices long before 9/11, but when the head of the program, Colonel Anthony Shaffer, tried to pass the information on to the 9/11 Commission, he was gagged and slandered and the vital information his team had passed on was ignored and buried.

Curt Weldon, Former U.S. Republican Congressman and senior member of the House Armed Services Committee, documented how the US government tracked the hijackers’ movementsbefore 9/11.

Louai al-Sakka, the man who trained six of the hijackers, was a CIA informant. A number of the other alleged hijackers were trained at US air bases. In the months prior to 9/11, alleged hijackers Khalid Almidhar and Nawaf Alhazmi were renting rooms in a house owned and lived in by an FBI informant.

In a 2002 article entitled The Hijackers We Let Escape, Newsweek’s Michael Isikoff and Daniel Klaidman documented how, “The CIA tracked two suspected terrorists to a Qaeda summit in Malaysia in January 2000, then looked on as they re-entered America and began preparations for September 11.”

The fact that there were numerous Al-Qaeda affiliated terrorists involved in the pre-planning stages of 9/11 is unsurprising given former FBI translator Sibel Edmonds’ testimony that Bin Laden was working for the US right up until the day of 9/11.

On the very morning of 9/11, the money man behind the alleged hijackers, Pakistan’s ISI Chief Mahmoud Ahmad, was meeting with U.S. government and intelligence officials.

Indeed, even after 9/11, the so-called spiritual leader of the very hijackers who allegedly slammed Flight 77 into the Pentagon, Anwar al-Awlaki, was himself invited to dine with Pentagon top brass mere months after the attack.

Al-Awlaki was later involved in directing the underwear bomber, who was allowed to board the plane by order of the US State Department aided by a well-dressed man who got Abdulmutallab on the airliner despite the fact that he was on a terror watch list and had no passport. Eyewitness and Delta 253 passenger Kurt Haskell subsequently blew the whistle to state that Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab was given the bomb by the US government to create a pretext for the implementation of naked body scanners and boost the TSA’s budget.

While there has been plenty of focus on possible connections between other Muslim terror suspects and the alleged 9/11 hijackers, little has been said about the role of the infamous “dancing Israelis” who brazenly displayed their foreknowledge of the plot after they were witnessed setting up camera equipment pointed at the World Trade Center before the attack unfolded.

When the planes slammed into the towers, the men were seen dancing, cheering and congratulating each other.

The details of these new Wikileaks documents only serve to confirm that there were numerous drills and preparatory actions taking place immediately prior to 9/11 indicating that an attack was imminent. What the Telegraph and the rest of the establishment media will refuse to mention in any of these reports is the confirmed fact that through Able Danger and other intelligence operations, these events were being closely tracked by US authorities.

Add to this the complete reversal of standard operating procedure on the day of 9/11 in relation to NORAD’s failure to intercept any of the hijacked airliners, and the evidence for a government and military stand down which at the very least allowed the attack to take place is abundant.

Wikileaks: Qatar involved in 9/11

Secret files have been released by WikiLeaks which reveal a mystery trio who were supposedly involved in the 9/11 terror attacks in the USA.The FBI is hunting for the three people who are believed to have lived in Qatar.The previously unknown men are suspected of having conducted surveillance on targets while providing other support to the plotters.

According to WikiLeaks the men had tickets for a flight to Washington on the eve of the terror attacks.

It has been suggested the suspected terrorists flew from London to New York on a British Airways flight three weeks before the attacks.

They allegedly carried out their surveillance on the World Trade Centre, the White House, the Pentagon and the CIA.

On 10th September, 2001, they were booked on an American Airlines flight from Los Angeles to Washington, but failed to board.

The following day the same Boeing 757 was hijacked by five terrorists and flown into the Pentagon.

The Qatari suspects are believed to have flown back to London on a British Airways flight before returning to Qatar.

Wikileaks Cables Reveal U.S. Embassy Works with Venezuelan Private Media

Mérida, September 6^th 2011 (Venezuelanalysis.com) – The U.S. ambassador to Venezuela, Patrick Duddy, met with Venezuelan private media companies El Nacional, Globovision, and the Cisneros Group, to discuss their political content with them and El Nacional asked the U.S embassy for funding, according to cables written by the U.S embassy in Caracas and published by Wikileaks.

Duddy met with the 2002 coup supporting channel, Globovision, and with private newspaper El Nacional on 17 and 19 February 2010, and documented the meeting in a cable written that month and released by Wikileaks on 30 August 2011, classified as secret and titled, “Globovision Owners Acknowledge Defeat: El Nacional on the Ropes?”

El Nacional told the embassy that it had allegedly lost “advertising revenue from companies that had either been nationalised or been threatened by the [Venezuelan government]” and asked “the Ambassador whether the U.S. could provide [it with financial] assistance.” The newspaper said it was reaching “the end of its financial rope” and predicted that it could be out of business by April of that year (2010).

The El Nacional representative (whose name is blacked out) said El Universal had also lost advertising revenues, “over 14%, with the recent nationalisation of Exito [supermarket chain]”.

The U.S embassy cable reads, “To keep El Nacional alive, XXXXXXXXXXXX asked the Ambassador whether the Embassy knew of services of private financing they could approach outside the country, or failing that, if the USG [U.S. government] could be persuaded to help.”

El Nacional currently still circulates on a daily basis.

A Globovision representative, their name also blacked out in the cable, alleged that Venezuelan government officials had pressured them to “tone down Globovision’s strongly anti-Chavez orientation” and talked about “buying time” until the National Assembly elections (which took place in September last year), saying “If Chavez wins, we are all gone.” The pro-Chavez party, the United Socialist Party of Venezuela, did win a majority in those elections, and Globovision remains fully on air.

According to lawyer and journalist Eva Golinger, Globovision has a special agreement to transmit the program “La Voz de America” (The Voice of America), which is financed and supervised by the U.S government.

“Its objective is to promote pro-U.S propaganda in Latin America. For 2011, the U.S congress approved a multimillion budget in order to transmit the thirty minute program five days a week in Venezuela, supposedly to counteract the anti-US propaganda by the Venezuelan government,” Golinger said.

Another cable, written and released on the same dates, classified confidential and titled, “Venevision Seaks ‘Balance’ in News Coverage” related a meeting between Ambassador Duddy and the largest private media conglomerate in Venezuela, the Cisneros Group, which owns free to air television station Venevision, as well as phone company Digitel, several news websites, radio stations, the Miss Venezuela pageant, and Coca-Cola FEMSA Venezuela. Duddy alleged in the cable that “some in the opposition” claim that Venevision has made “backroom agreements” with the government to water down its criticisms and “avoid retaliation”.

However, as the cable details, during the meeting between the U.S. embassy and the Cisneros Group, which took place at Venevision headquarters on 10 February 2010, the television channel denied any government deal or self-censorship.

Carlos Bardasano, representing Venevision, said, according to the cable, that due to “the highly polarised atmosphere in the country, Venevision strives for objective and neutral news coverage.”

“He said the station’s coverage tends to be approximately 60% opposition and 40% pro-government by content, with the ultimate goal of achieving a 50/50 balance.”

In the cable the ambassador is not impressed with Venevision’s “objective” stance. “The Ambassador reminded Venevision executives that should Globovision be closed, Venevision would have to carry the banner of freedom of expression”.

Context: Media power and influence in Venezuela

Eleazar Rangel, editor of highest circulating and private newspaper in Venezuela, Ultimas Noticias, said at a forum in New York last year that, “What’s not published in Venezuela is what media owners don’t want published”. He also said no one had ever offered any evidence of news not being published in Venezuela because of government pressure.

According to Rangel, in Venezuela, “there are currently between 90 and 100 newspapers, of which 80 percent side with the political opposition…and of AM radio stations, at least 400 broadcast the content of outlets that have assumed the role of directing the [political] opposition.”

Further, according to research by Mark Weisbot and Tara Ruttenberg, of CEPR, as of September 2010, Venezuelan state TV channels had just a 5.4% audience share.  Of the other 94.6% of the audience, 61.4% watched privately owned television channels, and 33.1% watched paid TV.

Coordinator of the Global Media Observatory in Venezuela, Maryclen Stelling, said, “Venezuelan media outlets have stopped publishing information and have instead dedicated themselves to producing their own realities,” adding that it was possible to talk about the creation of “media parties” in Venezuela.

At the end of last year, after the above cables were written and meetings took place, the Venezuelan National Assembly modified its media social responsibility law. The main changes consisted in including internet news services as media, and requiring the broadcast of at least 50% nationally produced television during prime hours.

In general, Venezuela’s media laws are similar to those of most countries, and media can broadcast what it likes, as long as it does not incite hate, criminal activity, war propaganda, homicide, or the disobeying of constitutional authority.

Wikileaks Discloses The Reason(s) Behind China’s Shadow Gold Buying Spree

A prisoner of war is a man who tries to kill you and fails, and then asks you not to kill him.

Zero Hedge
Sunday, September 4, 2011

Wondering why gold at $1850 is cheap, or why gold at double that price will also be cheap, or frankly at any price?

Because, as the following leaked cable explains, gold is, to China at least, nothing but the opportunity cost of destroying the dollar’s reserve status.

Putting that into dollar terms is, therefore, impractical at best, and illogical at worst. We have a suspicion that the following cable from the US embassy in China is about to go not viral but very much global, and prompt all those mutual fund managers who are on the golden sidelines to dip a toe in the 24 karat pool.

The only thing that matters from China’s perspective is that “suppressing the price of gold is very beneficial for the U.S. in maintaining the U.S. dollar’s role as the international reserve currency.

China’s increased gold reserves will thus act as a model and lead other countries towards reserving more gold. Large gold reserves are also beneficial in promoting the internationalization of the RMB.”

Now, what would happen if mutual and pension funds finally comprehend they are massively underinvested in the one asset which China is without a trace of doubt massively accumulating behind the scenes is nothing short of a worldwide scramble, not so much for paper, but every last ounce of physical gold…

From Wikileaks:

http://www.dallasblog.com/201107051008242/dallas-blog/tom-mcgregor-columnist-for-china-radio-international.html

Tom McGregor is really Tom Pauken, Jr. In July, he joined the communist Chinese.  Below is information about his father, Tom Pauken

http://www.twc.state.tx.us/twcinfo/twcbio.html

Tom Pauken is Chairman of the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC), where he has served since being appointed by Governor Rick Perry in March 2008.

Chairman Pauken is a United States Army veteran. He received a commission in Military Intelligence and served in Vietnam as a Province Intelligence Officer and as a senior analyst for the Office of Strategic Research Analysis.

Before going to China, Pauken worked as a double agent for the N. Koreans. He felt comfortable with me.  He wanted a clean gun and to have his wife killed. I addressed that in an email:

From:

To:

Tommcgregor@cri.com.cn

TOM,  I know you do not want people to know that you wanted your wife killed and tried to buy a pistol from me. As you know, John is a position to know about our meeting, the Taurus 9mm pistol I had for you,  your trips back and forth to South Korea, and what you wanted done to your then wife.

His family is deeply involved in the dealings of China with the U. S. and an arrest warrant has been put out on him.  He is on the no fly list and we will capture him in Asia soon.

3. CHINA’S GOLD RESERVES

“China increases its gold reserves in order to kill two birds with one stone”

“The China Radio International

(Tom Pauken, Jr)sponsored newspaper World News Journal (Shijie Xinwenbao)(04/28): “According to China’s National Foreign Exchanges Administration China ‘s gold reserves have recently increased. Currently, the majority of its gold reserves have been located in the U.S. and European countries. The U.S. and Europe have always suppressed the rising price of gold. They intend to weaken gold’s function as an international reserve currency. They don’t want to see other countries turning to gold reserves instead of the U.S. dollar or Euro. Therefore, suppressing the price of gold is very beneficial for the U.S. in maintaining the U.S. dollar’s role as the international reserve currency. China’s increased gold reserves will thus act as a model and lead other countries towards reserving more gold. Large gold reserves are also beneficial in promoting the internationalization of the RMB.”

Perhaps now is a good time to remind readers what will happen if and when America’s always behind the curve mutual and pension fund managers finally comprehend that they are massively underinvested in the one best performing asset class.

From The Driver for Gold You’re Not Watching (via Casey Research)

You already know the basic reasons for owning gold – currency protection, inflation hedge, store of value, calamity insurance – many of which are becoming cliches even in mainstream articles. Throw in the supply and demand imbalance, and you’ve got the basic arguments for why one should hold gold for the foreseeable future.

All of these factors remain very bullish, in spite of gold’s 450% rise over the past 10 years. No, it’s not too late to buy, especially if you don’t own a meaningful amount; and yes, I’m convinced the price is headed much higher, regardless of the corrections we’ll inevitably see. Each of the aforementioned catalysts will force gold’s price higher and higher in the years ahead, especially the currency issues.

But there’s another driver of the price that escapes many gold watchers and certainly the mainstream media. And I’m convinced that once this sleeping giant wakes, it could ignite the gold market like nothing we’ve ever seen.

The fund management industry handles the bulk of the world’s wealth. These institutions include insurance companies, hedge funds, mutual funds, sovereign wealth funds, etc. But the elephant in the room is pension funds. These are institutions that provide retirement income, both public and private.

Global pension assets are estimated to be – drum roll, please – $31.1 trillion. No, that is not a misprint. It is more than twice the size of last year’s GDP in the U.S. ($14.7 trillion).

We know a few hedge fund managers have invested in gold, like John Paulson, David Einhorn, Jean-Marie Eveillard. There are close to twenty mutual funds devoted to gold and precious metals. Lots of gold and silver bugs have been buying.

So, what about pension funds?

According to estimates by Shayne McGuire in his new book, Hard Money; Taking Gold to a Higher Investment Level, the typical pension fund holds about 0.15% of its assets in gold. He estimates another 0.15% is devoted to gold mining stocks, giving us a total of 0.30% – that is, less than one third of one percent of assets committed to the gold sector.

Shayne is head of global research at the Teacher Retirement System of Texas. He bases his estimate on the fact that commodities represent about 3% of the total assets in the average pension fund. And of that 3%, about 5% is devoted to gold. It is, by any account, a negligible portion of a fund’s asset allocation.

Now here’s the fun part. Let’s say fund managers as a group realize that bonds, equities, and real estate have become poor or risky investments and so decide to increase their allocation to the gold market. If they doubled their exposure to gold and gold stocks – which would still represent only 0.6% of their total assets – it would amount to $93.3 billion in new purchases.

How much is that? The assets of GLD total $55.2 billion, so this amount of money is 1.7 times bigger than the largest gold ETF. SLV, the largest silver ETF, has net assets of $9.3 billion, a mere one-tenth of that extra allocation.

The market cap of the entire sector of gold stocks (producers only) is about $234 billion. The gold industry would see a 40% increase in new money to the sector. Its market cap would double if pension institutions allocated just 1.2% of their assets to it.

But what if currency issues spiral out of control? What if bonds wither and die? What if real estate takes ten years to recover? What if inflation becomes a rabid dog like it has every other time in history when governments have diluted their currency to this degree? If these funds allocate just 5% of their assets to gold – which would amount to $1.5 trillion – it would overwhelm the system and rocket prices skyward.

And let’s not forget that this is only one class of institution. Insurance companies have about $18.7 trillion in assets. Hedge funds manage approximately $1.7 trillion. Sovereign wealth funds control $3.8 trillion.

Then there are mutual funds, ETFs, private equity funds, and private wealth funds. Throw in millions of retail investors like you and me and Joe Sixpack and Jiao Sixpack, and we’re looking in the rear view mirror at $100 trillion.

I don’t know if pension funds will devote that much money to this sector or not. What I do know is that sovereign debt risks are far from over, the U.S. dollar and other currencies will lose considerably more value against gold, interest rates will most certainly rise in the years ahead, and inflation is just getting started. These forces are in place and building, and if there’s a paradigm shift in how these managers view gold, look out!

I thought of titling this piece, “Why $5,000 Gold May Be Too Low.” Because once fund managers enter the gold market in mass, this tiny sector will light on fire with blazing speed

WIKILEAKS PUTS ALL ITS US CABLES ONLINE, UNREDACTED

By Andy McSmith

Saturday, 3 September 2011

 WikiLeaks’ founder Julian Assange was at the centre of another political storm yesterday after more than 251,000 US diplomatic cables were published in their original form on the internet for anyone to read.

No attempt was made to redact the cables to protect whistleblowers or other innocent people named in them, provoking fears that some lives could be endangered.

The cables were published in batches, sorted by country, including 34,687 relating to Iraq, 29,431 from China, 19,714 from Afghanistan, 13,209 from Pakistan and 6,732 from Cuba.

Their appearance was announced on Twitter, with messages encouraging followers to read the cables and share what they find. One WikiLeaks tweet declared that it was “shining a light on 45 years of US ‘diplomacy’.”

WIKILEAKS: Unredacted Cables Published

 

By JEANNE WHALEN

WikiLeaks on Thursday confirmed reports that it has lost control of a cache of U.S. diplomatic cables that it has been publishing in recent months, saying a security breach has led to the public disclosure of hundreds of thousands of the unredacted documents.

The website quickly sought to deflect blame for the leak of the leaked classified cables. It accused the U.K. newspaper the Guardian—which last year was WikiLeaks’ partner in publishing some of the cables—of publishing in a book a password that unlocks an encrypted file containing the unredacted cables.

According to German magazine Der Spiegel, the encrypted file has been available online since early this year. In a statement, WikiLeaks didn’t explain how the encrypted file slipped from its possession, and it didn’t respond to a request for comment.

The fracas has put WikiLeaks in the position of decrying what it called the “reckless” and “negligent” disclosure of information—something WikiLeaks’ critics have long accused it of doing itself.

WikiLeaks in recent days has faced criticism for publishing some of the cables without redacting the names of individuals, such as government informants, who theoretically could be jeopardized by publication of the information.

In a statement Thursday, the Guardian said it “utterly rejects any suggestion that it is responsible for the release of the unedited cables.”

WikiLeaks: Reset

Aug 27, 2011 13:37 Moscow Time

Julian Assange’s notorious website WikiLeaks has reacted to its falling popularity rating and made public another batch of US State Department cables. Part of these is classified documents, relating to Russia’s relations with this country’s neighbours and some European states.

This time, Julian Assange and Co. has set a record by publishing 100,000 cables of US embassies throughout the world at a time.

According to the cables, the US remains discontent with Russia’s monopoly on the European energy market. The US Vice-President Joe Biden said during his visit to the Czech Republic in 2009 that Europe could grow less dependent on Moscow if it found alternative energy sources. According to the cable, Biden says in his letter that European countries seem to be unaware of the threat that one nation can easily shut off the spigot. He called for preventing Russia from monopolizing the EU energy industry.

Another message is about the Kremlin’s growing clout on the CIS countries, specifically Ukraine. To counterbalance the trend, Washington should help Kiev to diversify fuel deliveries to make Ukraine less dependent on Russia. For example, the United States has allegedly spent 380 million dollars on developing Ukraine’s nuclear industry, which is fully dependent on Russian nuclear fuel today.

Yet another document has to do with the Customs Union of Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan. According to it, the Customs Union has come into being as a result of pressure that Moscow brought to bear on Astana. Kazakhstan’s Customs Union membership will make it more difficult for Astana to join the World Trade Organization.

The fact that Washington has failed to convincingly disprove the veracity of the documents published is evidence of their authenticity, says an expert of the Moscow-based Institute for the US and Canada Studies Vladimir Batiuk, and elaborates:

“The content of the recently published cables, Vladimir Batiuk says, is perfectly in line with the US policy of isolating Russia and undermining this country’s influence in the post-Soviet area. This policy has been prompted not so much by the modern-day realities, as by American triumphalism in the wake of the Cold War. Russia was then seen as a defeated nation and dealt with accordingly. But Moscow is perfectly aware of US diplomatic moves and is under no illusion over them.”

The Russian expert goes on to say that the latest WikiLekas publications will generate no major problems in Russian-US relations, and elaborates:

“We are no allies, Vladimir Batiuk says, we are partners in some international issues at best, while being competitors in other areas. So, statements by US officials that follow from the WikiLeaks-published batch of US diplomatic cables are perfectly in line with these realities. Actually, the Wikileaks previous publications did in no way affect Russian-American relations.”

You may remember that President Dmitry Medvedev said in an interview with the Heads of Russian Federal TV Channels in December 2010 that the cables posted on the WikiLeaks website might affect US relations with other countries, not with Russia.

He described statements by US diplomats in their cables as a minute of glory, to which everyone has the right. The Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov referred to the cables, for his part, as “amusing coffee-table books”, adding that Moscow’s actual policy on the US will largely depend on Washington’s specific moves.

So it seems that Julian Assange’s latest bombshell will first and foremost become his own minute of glory, as well as an attempt to stoke up the general public’s interest in his website.

WikiLekas became popular in the Internet in 2010, when it first posted State Department cables on the shady side of US military operations in Afghanistan and Iraq on its site. According to the mass media, WikiLeaks then got hold of 250,000 cables that it posted in small batches.

Wikileaks: Homeland Security invokes Patriot Act on Assange; seeks server data

Zack Whittaker
ZDNet.com
August 25, 2011

Summary: The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has invoked the Patriot Act on Wikileaks’ domain registrar, in a bid to access information on founder Julian Assange.

DNS hoster Dynadot has received a Patriot Act request by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, to produce information held about WIkileaks founder Julian Assange, in a fully-fledged “espionage case”.

In a tweet by @wikileaks, the whistleblowing organisation confirmed the news.

The order seeks “all available information” on not only Assange, but Wikileaks also, held by the DNS hoster. The information will be handed to the U.S. grand jury in Alexandria, Virgina.

A Wikileaks press release has been issued:

“The Order demands Dynadot handover the following information for the time period November 1st 2009 to present, within three days of the date of the Order:

1. Subscriber names, user names, screen names, or other identities;

2. mailing addresses, residential addresses, business addresses, e-mail addresses, and other contact information;

3. connection records, or record of session times and durations;

4. length of service (including start date) and typos of service utilized;

5. telephone or instrument number or other subscriber number or identity; including any temporarily assigned network address; and

6. means and source of payment

WikiLeaks: 35,000 Diplomatic Cables To Be Released

The whistleblower website WikiLeaks announced it was releasing 35,000 U.S. diplomatic cables late Tuesday night. The official Twitter account broke the news to its more than one million followers, asking for help scouring the cables for discoveries.

So far, cables have been posted from China, Taiwan and Libya. Cables from other countries — including Russia, Venezuela, Indonesia, Syria, Somalia, Bahrain, South Africa, Yemen, Cuba, Germany, Iran, Afghanistan, Poland, France, Turkey, Romania and Rwanda — are reportedly to be released later.

4,000 cables from Israel are also to be released.

Interested readers were flagging cables of note on Twitter with the hashtag #wlfind.

One standout cable was the text of embattled Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi’s congratulation letter to President Obama on winning the election.

Gaddafi wrote, in part:

 

Since relations are resumed between our two countries, we have the right to congratulate you from the bottom of our hearts because you are the son of Africa. God gives reign to whom He wishes and takes it away from whom He wishes; he holds dear whom he wants and humiliates whom he wants as well. He retains all the good in His hands, and He is the all powerful; and He pledged to confer His favors on those deemed weak and to bequeath them the Earth. Blacks were deemed weak and were oppressed, and were taken to the American continent as slaves and indentured servants.The main point is that Blacks shall not have an inferiority complex and imitate the Yankees. They have to prove that they are partners to the whites and sharing the same continent; that the Whites themselves are not indigenous, but that they have come from overseas; that the black man is not less competent than the white man; and that the black color shall prevail in the world as predicted by the Green Book.

 

DOJ and FBI Make Arrests in PayPal Hacking Case

 

A federal indictment against 14 of the arrested accuses them of launching a Ddos (denial of service) against PayPal after it closed down a Wikileaks donation account.

LulzSec hacked Rupert Murdoch’s The Sun last Monday. A redirect sent users to a web page claiming the corporate media magnate died of a drug overdose.

In addition to the defacement, LulzSec members said on Twitter they had made off with emails from The Sun‘s now defunct sister newspaper, News of the World. The shadowy hacktivist group is said to also have hacked other Murdoch properties including News International and the Times of London in the hours following the first attack.

On Tuesday, members of Anonymous and LulzSec said they would release the email and passwords from the now defunct Murdoch newspaper. “Sun/News of the world OWNED. We’re sitting on their emails,” a hacker known as Sabu tweeted last Tuesday.

Murdoch is currently under investigation in a phone hacking scandal. It is alleged that employees working for the tabloid newspaper News of the World hacked celebrities, politicians, members of the British Royal Family, and others beginning in 2006.

Suspects in the PayPal case were arrested in Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Washington DC, Florida, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Mexico and Ohio, according to a statement released by the Department of Justice and the FBI. The indictment claims members of Anonymous conspired to “intentionally damage protected computers at PayPal” between December 6-10, 2010, as part the group’s “Operation Avenge Assange.”

Suspects connected to the case were separately arrested in Florida and New Jersey while British police arrested one suspect and Dutch authorities four.

The FBI claims it traced internet protocol addresses of the hackers to Canada and then to California where one of the IP addresses used a virtual server for the attack. A separate investigation revealed Ddos attacks came from a server based in Texas.

In June, accusations surfaced claiming a member LulzSec is a Marine who works for military intelligence.

Arrests in the PayPal case arrive a few days after the Pentagon asked the private sector to join in a pilot program dubbed “Strategy for Operating in Cyberspace.” The plan envisions a unified plan incorporating DoD’s military, intelligence and business operations. It calls on AT&T, Verizon, and other telecoms and defense contractors to play a role.

The plan includes an effort for private companies to share information with the Defense Department and the Department of Homeland Security.

The Pentagon’s pilot program came after a March 24 cyber attack against an unnamed defense company. Around 24,000 of that company’s files containing military secrets were allegedly hacked into.

Two months later, defense contractor Lockheed Martin claimed it was the victim of a cyber attack of undisclosed magnitude.
