More on Bushladen Carlyle Group:
George Soros & James Baker are part of the Family
[Posted 8 October 2001]
The first Bushladen article can be found at:

=======================================

[Emperor's Clothes note: The following is an excerpt from a 'Baltimore
Chronicle & Sentinel' article entitled, "Republican-controlled Carlyle
Group
poses serious Ethical Questions for Bush Presidents, but Baltimore Sun
ignores it.'

The article, written by Alice Cherbonnier, deals with the world's
largest
private equity firm, The Carlyle Group, a company that links George Bush
Sr.
and the family of Osama bin Laden. ]

"AN IMPORTANT TENET of journalism is that you should always ask, 'Who
benefits?'

"In the case of a war, the answers to this question become of paramount
importance. Suppose, for example, that profits from military contracting
were
to go in the pockets of a former U.S. President whose son (and a
presumed
future heir) is now President? Suppose further that such profits
escalate in
times of conflict. Wouldnâ??t this be of concern to the public?
Wouldnâ??t you
expect the media to be all over such an important ethical (not to
mention
moral, and maybe legal) angle?

"Though described by the Industry Standard as 'the worldâ??s largest
private
equity firm,' with over $12 billion under management, chances are
readers
havenâ??t ever heard of The Carlyle Group. Isnâ??t that a little odd,
considering it is run by a veritable who's who of former Republican
political
leaders. Former Defense Secretary Frank Carlucci is Carlyleâ??s chairman
and
managing director (who, by the way, was college roommate of the current
Defense Secretary, Donald Rumsfeld). And that partners in this mammoth
venture include former U.S. Secretary of State James A. Baker III,
George
Soros, Fred Malek (George H.W. Bushâ??s campaign manager, forced to
resign when
it was revealed he was Nixonâ??s 'Jew counter'), and 'presumably' George
H.W.
Bush?

"We say 'presumably' because the privately-held Carlyle doesnâ??t have
to
reveal information about its partners or investments to the SEC or to
anyone
else. Our former President is reported to be active in seeking
investments
for the Carlyle Group from the Asian market, and word is heâ??s paid
between
$80,000 to $100,000 per presentation.

"All told, Carlyle has about 420 partners all over the globe, from Saudi
princes to the former president of the Philippines. Its investments run
heavily in the defense sector; they make money from military conflicts
and
weapons spending."

6-10-01 Bush senior era capo della CIA

George Bush, figlio di un banchiere di Wall Street, divenne il 41esimo
presidente degli Stati Uniti nel 1989 dopo essere stato pilota
dell'aviazione navale, petroliere, deputato al Congresso, ambasciatore
all'Onu e in Cina, capo della Cia e vicepresidente con Ronald Reagan
dal 1981 al 1989.
Dopo la guerra del Golfo contro l'Iraq "la popolarità di Bush negli
Usa giunse a un livello mai toccato prima da un presidente", cioè al
90%, esattamente come ora il figlio.

Nel 1993 fu sconfitto da Clinton anche perchè Bush fu accusato di aver
appoggiato Saddam Hussein con soldi ed armi fino a una settimana prima
dell'invasione del Kuwait (scandalo BNL-Atlanta, ecc..).

Un altro suo figlio è governatore della Florida, lo Stato al centro
dei brogli elettorali nelle elezioni presidenziali di un anno fa.

Nei giorni scorsi, mentre il figlio sta dichiarando la terza guerra
mondiale, ha fatta una strana visita di piacere a Milano, con "una
puntatina in Svizzera per salutare un amico".

C'è chi dice che è andato a sistemare qualche conto e qualche affare
in sospeso con qualche arabo poco presentabile.

Attacco agli Usa:
fratello Bin Laden socio di Bush

Il presidente americano George W. Bush sarebbe stato in affari con uno
dei fratelli di Osama Bin Laden, il miliardario saudita indicato come
il massimo responsabile degli attacchi a New York e Washington.
Lo scrive oggi il quotidiano britannico 'Daily Mail'.
Secondo il servizio pubblicato dal giornale, Salem Bin Laden e George
W. Bush avrebbero fondato insieme, nel Texas, una compagnia
petrolifera, la 'Arbusto Energy'.
Salem, uno dei 54 fratelli di Osama, morto nel 1983 in un incidente
aereo nel Texas, avrebbe investito gran parte del suo capitale
derivante dall'eredità del padre in compagnie petrolifere e nel 1978
aveva nominato James Bath, un intimo amico di George W. Bush come sua
rappresentante a Houston. Sempre stando al giornale britannico, Bath
avrebbe investito la somma di 50 mila dollari nelle azioni della
'Arbusto' e, sempre per conto di Salem Bin Laden, avrebbe acquistato
l' aeroporto della 'Houston Gulf'. (Red)


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nella due giorni milanese Bush è stato ospite del "sinistro"
finanziere Carlo De Benedetti ed ha partecipato - con la "crema" dei
padroni italiani- a una cena organizzata dal gruppo finanziario
americano «Carlyle»; questa banca d' affari agisce in 50 Stati in
tutto il mondo e in essa vi "lavorano" Bush senior, il suo ex
segretario di Stato James Baker e l' ex premier inglese John Major.

Ha dovuto poi rinviare la partenza per gli Usa perchè invitato in
pompa magna a Roma da Berlusconi, Ciampi, Veltroni e dal Papa.

À QUI PROFITE LE CRIME ?
LES LIENS FINANCIERS OCCULTES ENTRE LES FAMILLES BUSH ET BEN LADEN

À la fin des années 80, alors qu¹il dirigeait l¹Harken Energy Company,
une
petite société pétrolière texanne, Georges W. Bush fit fortune en
emportant
la concession pétrolière du Bahreïn. Ce marché truqué était la
rétribution
d¹une rétro commission sur les ventes réalisées par le président Bush
père
au Koweït. L¹opération impliquait divers intermédiaires saoudiens, dont
Salem Ben Laden, frère aîné d¹Oussama et actionnaire d¹HarkenS

Les Notes d¹information du Réseau Voltaire, à paraître le 16 octobre à
20 h,
révèlent les réseaux financiers communs tissés depuis vingt ans par les
familles Bush et Ben Laden. Un monde occulte de marchands d¹armes et de
drogues où l¹on croise aussi bien le banquier nazi François Genoud, que
d¹anciens directeurs de la CIA et des services secrets saoudiens.

========================================
Did Pakistani Intelligence ('Our' Allies) Fund the WTC Attackers?
A Question Mr. Bush Is Not Asking...
[posted 15 October 2001]
========================================

Comment by Jared Israel, Emperor's Clothes

The following story from the 'Times of India' appears to confirm the
charge,
made by Emperor's Clothes and many others, that the U.S. foreign policy
Establishment is playing a hypocritical game in Afghanistan. (1)

According to a story in the 'Times of India," the Pakistani intelligence
service, ISI, Washington's close ally in the 'infinite war' against
terror,
was intimately involved with the 9-11 hijackers.

Is it true, as the 'Times' claims, that the U.S. pressured the
now-retired
head of Pakistani Intelligence, Lt-Gen Mahmud Ahmad, to 'request' early
retirement?

If so, wasn't this an attempt to head off a fuller investigation?

And doesn't that mean the U.S. side knows Ahmad is guilty as charged?

And by demanding early retirement, rather than a trial for terrorism,
hasn't
the U.S. government acknowledged that a) in sending $100,000 to one of
the
alleged WTC hijackers, Ahmad was acting in accord with ISI policy and b)
the
CIA or other U.S. covert forces were also involved?

If the 'Times' is telling the truth, and Lt-Gen Mahmud Ahmad was pushed
into
retirement to prevent a scandal, and if President Bush really wants to
punish
the parties behind 9-11, why doesn't he demand a full investigation so
that
the guilty can be brought to justice, whether they are to be found in
Kabul,
or Islamabad, or Riyadh, or Langley or Washington, D.C.?

If, on the other hand, the 'Times' is lying, why hasn't the U.S. State
Department demanded a retraction? After all, this is a most serious
accusation.

Washington's silence is one more piece of evidence that the "infinite
war"
against terrorism is an infinite sham.

-- Jared Israel

India helped FBI trace ISI-terrorist links

by MANOJ JOSHI
12 October 2001
'THE TIMES OF INDIA'

NEW DELHI: While the Pakistani Inter Services Public Relations claimed
that
former ISI director-general Lt-Gen Mahmud Ahmad sought retirement after
being
superseded on Monday, the truth is more shocking.

Top sources confirmed here on Tuesday, that the general lost his job
because
of the "evidence" India produced to show his links to one of the suicide
bombers that wrecked the World Trade Centre. The US authorities sought
his
removal after confirming the fact that $100,000 were wired to WTC
hijacker
Mohammed Atta from Pakistan by Ahmad Umar Sheikh at the instance of Gen
Mahumd.

Senior government sources have confirmed that India contributed
significantly
to establishing the link between the money transfer and the role played
by
the dismissed ISI chief. While they did not provide details, they said
that
Indian inputs, including Sheikhâ??s mobile phone number, helped the FBI
in
tracing and establishing the link.

A direct link between the ISI and the WTC attack could have enormous
repercussions. The US cannot but suspect whether or not there were other
senior Pakistani Army commanders who were in the know of things.
Evidence of
a larger conspiracy could shake US confidence in Pakistanâ??s ability to
participate in the anti-terrorism coalition.

Indian officials say they are vitally interested in the unravelling of
the
case since it could link the ISI directly to the hijacking of the Indian
Airlines Kathmandu-Delhi flight to Kandahar last December. Ahmad Umar
Sayeed
Sheikh is a British national and a London School of Economics graduate
who
was arrested by the police in Delhi following a bungled 1994 kidnapping
of
four westerners, including an American citizen.
