The 1993 World Trade Center Bombing & 9/11 Truth

Today is the 16th anniversary of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and the first attempt by terrorists to take down the Twin Towers. With the second attempt on 9/11 related terrorists achieved the intended goal.

The so-called 9/11 Truth movement is about as far from the truth as you can get. For what really happened on 9/11 and with the WTC Bombing in 1993, the most important analyst is Dr. Laurie Mylroie, author of Study of Revenge: The First World Trade Center Attack and Saddam Hussein's War against America (American Enterprise Institute, 2001).

Dr. Mylroie judiciously examined the evidence from the trial of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing suspects and came across a very compelling case against Iraq as having a hidden hand in the attack. The case that she makes is that Ramzi Yousef, the terrorist mastermind behind the first attempt to take down the Twin Towers, sought to assume a false identity of a real Kuwaiti, Abdul Basit, who was likely killed when Iraq occupied the Emirate in 1990-1991. Since this Kuwaiti's interior ministry file was tampered with and contained the actual fingerprints of Ramzi Yousef it is reasonable to believe Iraq was behind the creation of a legend for the key terrorist behind the '93 World Trade Center bombing.

As presented in my own work, the same case that Dr. Mylroie makes against Iraq regarding Ramzi Yousef can be made regarding Saddam's complicity in 9/11 based upon the identity of Abdul Basit's uncle, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, the admitted terrorist mastermind for the successful attempt to take down the Twin Towers in 2001...

The Fate Of The Union

President Obama gave a rousing 'State Of The Union' address tonight (although it's not officially one for an incoming, new President's first address). It was mainly about how the government was taking decisive action to save America from economic collapse (to the tune of $3 trillion - and then there's the trillions that need to be spent to bailout the financial system, the automakers, etc...).

While we might be due for a decent short-term bounce in the financial markets and the economy, the hard reality is that these are the Last Days for America and the twilight of Western Civilization as we know it. As an American, I deeply wish I was wrong on this score and that another era of material prosperity lies somewhere ahead, but that is not what the historical cycles indicate.


[NOTE: This video is from October 19th, 2007]
With regard to the State of the Union, I think Alan Keyes recently offered a more accurate assessment than Barack Obama did in tonight's address to the nation:



But who's listening to Alan Keyes? (Who, unlike Barack Obama, is a true American of African descent.)

The problem here is that Americans, and the world in general, are simply not coming to grips with the scale of the 'correction' now underway. This 'correction' isn't simply a bear market in stocks and recession or depression in the economy. It is the inevitable collective consequence of denying God and letting human nature run its historical course. When a society lets greed run amuck and lives chin-deep in sin, there will be historical accountability.

Consider the apostle Paul's passage from the Book Of Romans:

Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so. Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God. [Romans 8:5-8]

What the heck do you think people have been up to in America in recent history? Do you think Americans are ruled by the Holy Spirit or their sinful nature? Have you flipped on a television in the past decade?

And its not that one should necessarily condemn America or people in general for going the way of greed and sin as this is apparently inevitable and a necessary evil for the generation of the knowhow and material basis for building a global Kingdom of God. But the cycles are the cycles and God's moral laws for society are no different than the laws of physics....if you disobey the law of gravity, there are painful negative consequences.

On this occasion, the negative consequences are manifesting historically as evil, rabidly anti-semitic, literally Antichristian forces headquartered in the Kremlin.

"The coming of the lawless one by the activity of Satan will be with all power and with pretended signs and wonders, and with all wicked deception for those who are to perish, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. Therefore God sends upon them a strong delusion, to make them believe what is false, so that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness." [2 Thessalonians 2:9-12]

"Today the Soviet system can no longer seriously strive toward the spectre of Communism - but at the same time it cannot yet abandon the grandeur of its tasks, for otherwise it would have to answer for fruitless sacrifices which are truly innumerable. But in what then can the Soviet system find its justification? Only in the consciousness that it was unconsciously in the past, as it is now quite consciously, God's instrument for constructing a new Christian world. It has no other justification, and this is . . . a genuine and great justification. By adopting it, our state will discover in itself a truly inexhaustable source of Truth, spiritual energy and strength, which has never before existed in history . . . The old pagan world has now finally outlived its era . . . In order not to perish with it we must build a new civilization - but is Western society, whose foundations have been destroyed, really capable of this? Only the Soviet sytem, having adopted Russian Orthodoxy . . . is capable of beginning THE GREAT TRANSFORMATION OF THE WORLD." (Passage written by Russian nationalist Gennadii Shimanov quoted in Yanov's The Russian Challenge, 1987, p.236)

"If we presume the coming transformation of the Communist Party into the Russian Orthodox Party of the Soviet Union, we would obtain truly the ideal state, one which would fulfill the historical destiny of the Russian people. It is a question of the Orthodoxization of the entire world." (Gennadii Shimanov)

From outward appearances it would seem that the old Soviet Union has returned. A thing crucified, dead and buried has been resurrected. Four weeks after Vladimir Putin’s re-election, a procession led by the Patriarch of the Russian Orthodox Church arrived at the Church of Christ the Redeemer in Moscow. In keeping with ancient tradition the doors of the church were shut, symbolizing the sealed cave where Christ’s body was placed following crucifixion. “After midnight,” noted Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya, “the Orthodox faithful taking part in the procession await the opening of the church doors. The patriarch stands on the steps at their head and is the first to enter the empty temple where the Resurrection of Christ has already occurred.” In due course the Patriarch offered up a prayer, the doors of the Church of Christ the Redeemer were opened and out stepped President Vladimir Putin. If any Christians were present for this ceremony they offered no protest to this blatant sacrilege. The woman who reported this event for the benefit of Western readers has since been assassinated. The KGB defector who was investigating the circumstances of her death has been poisoned (i.e., Litvinenko). ["Kremlin Poison", Jeff Nyquist, 11/20/06]

And when Americans wake up to this hard truth, the Fate of our Union will be clear....this nation will not stand for much longer.

Our Spirit and the love of human freedom, on the other hand, is indestructible....even by the devil himself. And it's this Spirit, and serving our Creator, that we should focus upon at this juncture. Material prosperity is likely done for quite some time since the Lord giveth and now the Lord taketh away, so let's truly start giving some genuine heed to our Creator since this is what counts most.

Russia can launch nuclear missiles at minute's notice

For anyone who's forgotten...

Russia can launch ICBMs at minute's notice - missile forces chief

RIA Novosti | 16:36 | 11/ 02/ 2009

MOSCOW, February 11 (RIA Novosti) - Intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM) in service with the Russian Strategic Missile Forces (SMF) could be launched within a minute if Russia's security is threatened, the SMF commander has said.

"Over 6,000 servicemen are on 24/7 combat duty, and at least 96% of all missile systems are ready for deployment within several dozen seconds. It is the highest readiness level among the components of the Russian nuclear triad," Col. Gen. Nikolai Solovtsov said in an interview published on Wednesday by the Krasnaya Zvezda newspaper.

At present, six types of silo-based and mobile ICBM systems of the fourth and the fifth generation, including the heavy Voyevoda (SS-18 Satan), capable of carrying 10 warheads, and the Topol-M (Stalin) systems, are on combat duty with the SMF.

According to open sources, the total arsenal of Russia's SMF comprises 538 ICBMs, including 306 SS-25 Topol (Sickle) missiles and 56 SS-27 Topol-M missiles.

"The fifth regiment at the Tatishchevo Missile Division, which is armed with silo-based Topol-M complexes, was fully staffed in 2008, and there are now 50 silo-based Topol-M systems on combat duty," the general said.

The first two Topol-M mobile missile battalions, equipped with six road-mobile systems, have already been put on combat duty with the 54th Strategic Missile Division near the town of Teikovo, about 150 miles (240 km) northeast of Moscow.

The deployment will continue in 2009 and the division will be up to full strength by 2010, Solovtsov said.

The Topol-M missile, with a range of about 7,000 miles (11,000 km), is said to be immune to any current and future U.S. missile defenses. It is capable of making evasive maneuvers to avoid a kill using terminal phase interceptors, and carries targeting countermeasures and decoys.

It is also shielded against radiation, electromagnetic pulses and nuclear blasts, and is designed to survive a hit from any known form of laser technology.

Solovtsov also said that in 2009 the SMF would start bringing into service systems equipped with new-generation (RS-24) intercontinental ballistic missiles, bearing multiple independently targetable reentry vehicle (MIRV) warheads.

"Making this missile system operational will help bolster the SMF's combat capabilities to overpower missile defense systems, thus strengthening the nuclear deterrence potential of the Russian nuclear triad," Solovtsov said.

We're in a Puetz eclipse crash window...

The DJIA was up sharply Friday and investors seem reassured that a solid bottom is in place at the 8000 mark.



I'm doubtful, however.

First off, as indicated by the put-to-call ratio, the level of optimism has risen sharply even while stocks are at very depressed levels:



This suggests a short-term top is likely at-hand.

Meanwhile, according to the most apparent Elliott Wave count, we should be turning into a third wave of an intermediate-degree fifth wave down. This indicates a sharp drop to new lows should be near.

Lastly, there is a lunar eclipse tomorrow morning so we are in the midst of a 'Puetz eclipse crash window' similar to last September when a major autumn panic got underway on Wall Street. Steve Puetz discovered that major stock market crashes tend to begin around the time of full moons up to six weeks before or after solar eclipses, especially if the full moon involves a lunar eclipse like tomorrow morning.

Once the panic starts, Puetz notes, it generally lasts from two to four weeks. The tendency has been for the markets to peak a few days ahead of the full moon, move flat to slightly lower --waiting for the full moon to pass. Then on the day of the full moon or slightly after, the brunt of the crash hits the marketplace."

While this may all prove relevant here, it's also possible that a significant bottom is already in place. Notably, the Dow Transports reached a new low in January while the Dow Industrials and Dow Utilities did not.



Such a non-confirmation sets the stage for a possible Dow Theory buy signal should the Industrials and Transports climb above their most recent significant peaks at 9000 and 3700, respectively.

One should also note that, seasonally, panics most often occur in the fall and sometimes the spring. Clearly this was the case last autumn. Typically autumn panic lows are very significant, and this has thus far proven to be the case from 2008. For the DJIA to break to new low ground in the near-term would require a very potent wave of fear and pessimism, although there are historical ingredients for this at the current juncture.

Fundamentally, the global financial system and economy are still collapsing. This week there's likely to be a lot of political friction because the government's $800+ billion stimulus plan is going to be voted on in the Senate and the new Treasury Secretary, Tim Geithner, is apparently going to ask for an additional $1 trillion for the increasingly notorious TARP bank bailout program. Politically, this might not be possible because of the poor implementation of the initial $700 billion and popular resentment over how Wall Street executives spent billions of dollars on executive bonuses and other lavish items while on the government dole.

And on that note...

I Want My Bailout Money by Michael Adams

18th anniversary of my 'vision'...

Tomorrow is the 18th anniversary of the first part of my 'vision' of the coming nuclear Apocalypse.

Back during the Gulf War, in February of 1991, I was engaged in a written correspondence with Robert Prechter, the "Elliott Wave Theorist", about what might eventually cause the Grand Supercycle crash and bear market we were both anticipating at the time.

On the evening of February 6th, I was watching television when suddenly a special report aired of a chemical SCUD attack on Israel. The report was apparently authentic with Tom Brokaw speaking with an NBC correspondent in Haifa. After the correspondent confirmed that chemical agents were definitely involved, Brokaw told the correspondent he should put his gas mask on.

Surprised that Saddam had launched such a provocative attack, I then went out and told others on the college dormitory floor where I lived at the time that Saddam had just hit Israel with chemical SCUDs. As I returned to the television to catch more news on the attack, I found nothing was being reported. When I awoke the next day, there was nothing in the newswires. All said and done, I discovered that no such report had aired at the time I saw it. (In fact, Israel went off alert around the time I saw the report because there had been no Iraqi SCUD attacks for some time.)

Immediately after this odd experience, I mentioned to Robert Prechter in a letter I was writing to him what I had seen. I speculated that I might had had a psychic vision of what would cause the Grand Supercycle collapse in the stock market we were expecting. Clearly an Iraqi chemical attack on Israel and a subsequent outbreak of some sort of new Arab/Israeli war would greatly upset investors' expectations and precipitate a large-scale decline in stock prices.

Soon after sending this letter to Mr. Prechter, I had another experience that apparently revealed the full danger we were facing.

Around February 12th of that year, I was with a friend who was interested in ancient prophecies that might be related to the Gulf War of that time. I took him to my dormitory room and, upon reading a Bible prophecy to my friend that I believe depicts a future nuclear war (the Seventh Seal prophecy in the eighth chapter of the Book of Revelation), we heard an air-raid siren followed by the bellowed percussion of a nuclear explosion. The experience was so real we rushed out of my dorm to the library and went to the subbasement where I contacted the fire department. When I asked the dispatcher whether or not there had been an explosion or siren, I was told nothing of the sort had occurred.

Coming so soon after my vision of a special report of a chemical SCUD attack on Israel, I concluded there must be a connection- the Grand Supercycle crash would involve an all-out war in the Middle East that would be followed by an all-out global war involving a nuclear holocaust.

From that moment on, my search began for what would lead to a Grand Supercycle crash in Western expectations via a nuclear third world war.

Thus, I discovered how the world has been utterly deceived by the authoritarian military powers of the East. Western expectations are being intentionally misled to irrational heights in order to open the way for an ultimate upset in the form of a surprise third world war.

Dow 8000

The DJIA is perched right above the psychologically important 8000 mark closing at 8000.86 on Friday:



I have pointed out over and over again how historical shocks often occur after 'failures' to hold above signficant thousand marks in the DJIA. Let me review a couple of key examples.



On July 16th and 17th of 1990, the DJIA closed at 2999.75 two days in a row, not closing above the psychologically important 3000 mark until the following year.

Just as the DJIA reached the 3000 mark, Saddam Hussein gave a speech threatening Kuwait on what was then Iraq's President Day honoring the date of the coup that brought the Butcher of Baghdad to power.

That weekend, Iraq started massing troops on Kuwait triggering a 5% reversal in the DJIA from the 3000 mark.

Then, on August 2nd, Iraq invaded Kuwait causing the Persian Gulf Crisis, a spike in oil prices and a 25% drop in the DJIA by October of that year.

Thus, the reversal in mass psychology with a failure at Dow 3000 in the summer of 1990 manifested as Iraq's invasion of Kuwait and the beginning of what would be a prolonged struggle with Saddam Hussein's Iraq.

As for 9/11, the DJIA broke decisively below Dow 10,000 on September 10th of 2001....THEN 9/11 occurred. Because the Dow failed at the 10,000 mark, I was not as shocked as most people when I heard the news that a plane had crashed into one of the Twin Towers that September morning. I was already on the alert for some sort of historical crisis.



Now, I'm not offering an explanation for what is admittedly a very odd pattern in mass psychology, although I do have a hypothesis related to the Quantum Mind, but I'm astute and honest enough with myself to recognize that the historical pattern exists and has some degree of predictive value.

We are currently at a historical juncture where the pattern in mass psychology could repeat.

This is far from being a solid expectation, but it is a reasonable one.

Thus, with the DJIA poised just above 8000 at the current juncture, one should be on the lookout for a failure from the psychologically important 8000 mark that could manifest as a historical shock of some sort.

It's possible that the coming historical shock will eminate from the Korean Peninsula given the news that North Korea just scrapped the non-aggression pact with South Korea as Dow 8000 has been approached. Thus, this could be the international crisis that would come from a new breakdown in collective confidence.

Another possibility is Israel is about to strike Iran's nuclear sites, something I've been concerned about for some time. Israel's ambassador to Australia apparently slipped up when the cameras were rolling in suggesting that the strategic threat posed by Iran would have to be dealt with in February:



I hope this is not the case, but a former U.S. intelligence official concurs that we are on the verge of Israeli military action to nullify the developing Iranian nuclear threat.

If Israel does strike Iran, and chemical missiles start raining down on the Jewish state in response, then know that the prophetic Apocalypse has begun and respond accordingly.
