Our night of truth is far away from tonight. We in the West, but especially the honorable people of America, are not living under the Nazis, who were unabashed fascists. The evil of our day is not visible. We face a tyranny that disguises itself as holy, and gets its way by using techniques of deception, and secret acts of terrorism. It is a tyranny so well-hidden from the public eye that to even declare that we all live under despotic governments owned by bankers and corporations is deemed a sign of mental illness. The ignorant deny the scale of the tyranny, telling themselves that it is not as bad as "conspiracy theorists" like to think, and then smugly add that whoever talks of a grand conspiracy should not be listened to.
But the brutal fact is that there is a grand conspiracy to control the world's remaining oil resources, and institute a private, and dictatorial world government. If it was stated publicly the conspiracy would obviously be resisted by the American people, and the people of the West, but it is carefully hidden from their eyes, and any mention of it is ridiculed. The Enemies of the people operate in the dark, hiding their horrible crimes behind offiical statements, and justifying them as acts of law against internatinoal terrorism. They are a waging a hidden war against freedom, and self-government.
The official term for this hidden war is called the "strategy of tension," which entails the use of fear, propaganda, disinformation, psychological warfare, and false-flag terrorist attacks, and the secret state intelligence agencies of Britain, America, Israel, and other Western countries are actively practicing this strategy on the people of America, and the Western world so that they uncritically accept the criminal wars in the Middle East, and the police state laws at home. The combined effects of psychological warfare, and false-flag terrorist attacks on a society are difficult to comprehend by the casual observer of that society because he/she is the victim of these tools of hidden war. If he/she does not engage in serious study, or is educated through films or eye-opening books, then he/she continues to live as if the leaders of government are his/her ultimate protectors in this world.
The "strategy of tension" was widely used by Western governments in Europe throughout the Cold War. Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed, author of "The War On Truth: 9/11, Disinformation And The Anatomy Of Terrorism" wrote a good summary of the "strategy of tension," in a post on his blog from May 2007:
Well-documented by several respected historians, confirmed by officialinquiries, and corroborated by former intelligence officials, the “strategy oftension” is one of those unsavoury moments in contemporary history that we don’tlearn about in school, or even university.
My favourite book on the subject, and the most authoritative in my view, is Dr. Daniele Ganser’s NATO’sSecret Armies: Operation Gladio and Terrorism in Western Europe (2004). Published in the UK as part of the “Contemporary Security Studies” series of London-based academic press Routledge, Ganser’s study is the first major historical work to bring the “strategy of tension” into the mainstream of scholarship.
During the Cold War, indeed through to the late 1980s, the United States, United Kingdom, and Western European governments and secret services, participated in a sophisticated NATO-backed operation to engineer terrorist attacks inside Western Europe, to be blamed on the Soviet Union. The objective was to galvanize public opinion against left wing policies and parties, and ultimately to mobilize popular support for purportedly anti-Soviet policies at home and abroad – most of which were really designed to legitimize brutal military interventions against nationalist independence movements in the “Third World”.
Vincenzo Vinciguerra, an Italian neo-fascist and terrorist, who was convicted for the murder of three police officers in 1972. Until he exposed their hidden hand in the bombings of Europe, Vinciguerra had the legal protection of Italian secret services which was connected to the secret network of Western military and political forces involved in Operation Gladio. In an interview recorded in June of 1992 from Allan Francovich's film Gladio, Vinciguerra explained the political purpose behind the state killing of innocent people, and why the "strategy of tension" was so effective:
You were supposed to attack civilians, women, children, innocent people outside the political arena. For one simple reason: To force the Italian public to turn to the State, turn to the regime and ask for greater security. This was precisely the role of the Right in Italy. It placed itself at the service of the State which created a strategy aptly called the "Strategy of Tension." In so far as they had to get people to accept that at any moment, over a period of thirty years from 1960 to the mid-eighties, a State of Emergency could be declared, so, people would willingly trade part of their freedom for the security of being able to walk the streets, go on trains or enter a bank. This is the political logic behind all the bombings. They remain unpunished because the State cannot condemn itself.American civilians were not targeted by intelligence agencies in acts of terrorism during the years of the Cold War like European populations mainly because the American people had ingrained the false idea of the "communist threat" into their minds so much that they didn't need to be violently persuaded of its validity. Also, support for the left was stronger in Europe, while America's center-right political system was securely in the control of the National Security apparatus.
The "strategy of tension" is a frightening reminder of the corrorsive power of the modern secret state. There is nothing more threatening to humanity than centralized and unaccountable political power. Recent history is full of examples of murder by governments. In 1948, Camus wrote that the "evil is the State, whether a police state or a bureaucratic state. Its proliferation in all countries under cover of the most varied ideological pretexts, the revolting security granted it by mechanical and psychological means of repression make of the State a mortal danger for everything that is best in each of us. From this point of view, contemporary political society, in any form, is despicable," (pg. 78 from Camus's Resistance, Rebellion, and Death).
After the end of the Cold War Western intelligence agencies should've been drastically reformed, but because of the lack of public knowledge of its crimes all around the world, and its real purpose for existence, they grew stronger, and bolder. In the new century, the "strategy of tension" was re-introduced to create another global and generational war.
Thierry Meyssan, a French journalist and author of "9/11: The Big Lie" commented on the use of the "strategy of tension" after the 7/7 London attacks, writing:
The leaders of the Coalition took advantage of the terrorist attacks in London to denounce, once more, the existence of an Islamic conspiracy and make a call to fight terrorism. However, facts speak for themselves: the operation was organized in the guise of an anti-terrorist exercise in which British public order forces were supposed to participate. Like in the 1980s, when the Anglo-Saxon secret services would organize bloody attacks in Europe to instil fear for Communism in the population, an Anglo-Saxon military group activates the strategy of tension to cause the “clash of civilizations”.
The next staged terrorist attacks could come any day, any hour, any minute. This fact is what makes the "strategy of tension" so beautiful if you are on the side of evil. It produces nervous feelings, and unease. It is sheer terror. Pure Machiavellian. You have the population in the plam of your hands, just waiting to follow what the government says next.
State of 9 - 1 - 1
Totalitarian terror was unleashed on September 11, 2001 by U.S. government insiders and traitors in order to create social anxiety, and put the American people in a perpetual state of fear, making them uncritically accept wars in the Middle East, and police state measures in America. It's been nine years since the attacks, but the pass of time hasn't change the fact that 9/11 still represents a state of global emergency. In a society that is moved by the "strategy of tension," martial law can be activated by the manipulative rulers of the government as they wish. "At any moment," as Vinciguerra said, "a State of Emergency could be declared."
The profound and catastrophic nature of the 9/11 attacks was understood immediately by on-the-ground eyewitnesses, and observers around the world. Respectable news commentators, and the gossip fanatics who like to exaggerate every event were both on the same page about what 9/11 signified. In the late evening on 9/11, ABC news anchor Ted Koppel noted to his colleague Peter Jennings; "There's not a great deal that differentiates the tabloids today from the more serious newspapers." Koppel, who was in London, then listed the headlines of several British publications that were printed on September 12, 2001: Apocalypse. Declaration of War. Is This The End of The World? War On The World. The Day That Changed The World. Doomsday America. When War Came To America. It may have seemed like at the time that newspapers were only competing with each other for readership so they tried to come up with the catchiest headlines, but there is more to it than that. The in-your-face headlines tapped into the global psyche, and was an honest expression of genuine fright, and uncertainty about the future. The feelings of dread that we all experienced on 9/11 have not went away, in fact, there is a heightened sense of insecurity now, and every day feels like the Apocalypse.
Peter Jennings quietly remarked minutes later, as if it was superficial information, that; "It's interesting in a very minor way that several people today have noted the oddity of the date, ninth day of the eleven month, as the three digits of the emergency number 9-1-1." (20:20 to 20:34 in this video clip.) Jennings got the date backward, it was the eleventh day of the ninth month, but, having spent 12 hours straight on the air by that point, it's a tiny, and forgivable mistake. And the point he brought up about the date is much more significant than he realized. It was not a minor point at all. It symbolizes the unending state of emergency that we all live in. And it's a special kind of emergency, wherein the emergency services and authorities (the government) caused the crisis in the first place, so relying on them for help and guidance is a tragic mistake.
I've written about 9/11 a lot lately, but there's a good reason for that, it's too big of a state crime to let go. It makes me mad every time I think about what was done. The conspirators who committed this horrendous crime must not get away with it. They will have to pay severely one day. Our responsibility is to make that day come sooner, and help alleviate the pain and suffering caused by the attacks and its ongoing aftermath. Time is bearing witness to the unspeakable treason, and terror, and although it may seem like the forces of good are losing, the fight for truth and liberty is far from over. "The arc of history is long," MLK said, "but it bends toward justice."
